The Chinese young man, who was probably a waiter, said with a smile, "Of course, it's still a cobra."
Jeff was horrified. "What?"
Luke had another sip.
Thankfully, Tim wasn't exaggerating. It was just regular snake wine without any drugs.
Luke said with a smile, "That's fine. It's good for men to drink snake wine now and then."
Tim and Jeff were lost for words.
"You're all middle-aged men with wives. I think you need it." Luke winked.
Jeff was too honest and a little confused.
Tim hesitated. "Is that useful?" He looked at the Chinese young man next to him.
The young man's eyes glittered. "You know about it?"
Luke was amused. "I do. But don't you have the legendary Five Poison wine? "
The young man was stunned. "What?"
"Snakes, centipedes, scorpions, spiders, and geckos," said Luke with a smile.
Every time he said a word, the three men's faces turned paler.
By the time he was done, Jeff was about to throw up.
Tim didn't look too good either, but he could still hold it in.
The Chinese young man, however, was shocked. "You know about that too?"
That was something that only existed in wuxia novels. How did this American young man know about it?
The Five Poison wine in reality wasn't reliable. After all, it wasn't as simple as putting a snake in with so many poisonous things.
He didn't want anyone to die in his restaurant.
Looking at their faces, Luke suddenly smiled. "I only read about it in a kung fu movie. I don't think it exists in reality. It's just a joke. Don't mind it!"
All three of them were greatly relieved.
Tim wouldn't want to drink it even if it did exist, and Jeff certainly wouldn't.
The Chinese young man, on the other hand, felt as if he had run into a god of pretentiousness. He quickly left to get the ingredients.
A moment later, the young man returned with a pitch-black object.
Luke wasn't surprised.
He had already known what the restaurant was selling with his Sharp Nose.
Jeff had just had another mouthful of wine, when he turned his head and saw what the young man was holding. He jumped to his feet and dashed several meters away. "Oh my god, is this … is this a live snake?"
Luke chuckled inwardly. It's a Cantonese specialty. What's strange about that?
At this time, another young man walked past Jeff with a plate of … mice in his hands.
Of course, it wasn't the kind that had just been fished out of the sewers. It was the raw material of another legendary dish, "Three-calling Mouse".
Jeff's eyes widened. "This, this can be eaten?"
Luke waved his hand. "Jeff, there are a lot of people in this world who dare to eat anything. If you don't like them, then don't order them. "His eyes fell on the plate of mice.
Jeff quickly shook his head. "I don't want that. Absolutely not."
Luke chuckled and looked at the snake in the young man's hand. "Actually, you can try it. Snake meat tastes pretty good, and a lot of people eat it."
Jeff swallowed. "Really?"
Luke nodded. "Yes."
Then he asked the young man beside him, "Don't tell me this snake is eaten raw?"
The Chinese young man: "You can eat it raw or make soup."
Luke decisively said, "Soup."
Snakes had parasites on their bodies. It was very easy to be infected by these parasites when eaten raw. It was something that could kill people.
Jeff finally returned to his seat and looked at the snake in the young man's hand with lingering fear.
Another young man pushed a cart with a chopping board on it.
The Chinese young man with the snake picked up the knife on the chopping board and chopped down.
Duang!
The snake's head was chopped off, and it wriggled on the chopping board.
Jeff grunted and swallowed.
Luke, however, said with a smile, "Don't worry. The snake's fangs have been removed. It can't bite you."
If the fangs hadn't been removed, the snake's head could still bite and inject venom long after it was chopped off. It wasn't the first chef in China to be bitten to death like this.
Relieved, Jeff couldn't help but pour himself another glass of snake liquor to calm himself down.
Tim filled it up for him again.
Then, just like that, the three of them drank one glass after another.
Also, this restaurant even served snakes, which was a typical Cantonese specialty.
Luke relied on his strong appetite and his large appetite.
Beef with barbecue, Chaozhou beef meatballs, sweet and sour pork with pineapple, braised pork with preserved vegetables, stir-fried beef, braised sea cucumber in abalone sauce, and scalded white clams.
Looking at Tim's dumbfounded expression, Luke smiled brilliantly. "I like Chinese food. Well, Chinese people also like to treat people. Since you brought us to this great place today, we'll make a Chinese specialty for this meal. It's my treat. You can have whatever you want. "
Tim was lost for words. Why didn't I know that China had such a specialty?
After hearing Luke's words, he didn't dare mention any of the China specialties that he had memorized from the files.
Since the young man was able to describe things like Five Venom and Chinese food so well, Tim wasn't confident that he could fool him with the files at all.
When the dishes were served, Jeff suddenly remembered something. He took out his phone and said, "I need to call Karen and tell her that I won't be back for lunch."
The Nice Guy got up and walked to the side. "Karen, you don't have to make me lunch today. I'm eating out. Huh? What? You're eating out with a neighbor? Who? Well, Tim and Luke are here too. Okay, I'll talk to you later. "
Karen hung up the phone and looked at Natalie suspiciously, and then at Selina suspiciously.
Natalie's movements were graceful, and she ate in a leisurely and pleasing manner.
Selina's movements were fast, but they weren't rude, which matched her candid temperament.
But these two … Did they have an appointment? Why did Tim and Luke happen to be eating with Jeff?
The suspicious housewife couldn't help but ponder again.
As for the three men, after lunch, they went to Jeff's company at his suggestion. The three of them played with an indoor parachute jumping machine.
After they came out, Luke added another training for himself and Selina: skydiving.
Also, they had to do real skydiving, which would definitely be much more fun than this skydiving simulator. It would also be a life-saving experience for them.
Luke casually said to Jeff, "Why don't we find an opportunity to do real skydiving someday? Does your company have such a program? "
Jeff was stunned. "… I don't think so!" He was doing indoor skydiving for the employees in his company who were under a lot of pressure.
Skydiving was an extremely dangerous and extreme sport. Few people dared to do it. Although MBI manufactured planes, it wouldn't treat such a dangerous sport as a benefit.
Luke smacked his lips. "I'll look for it myself. I'll let you know when I hear anything."
Jeff said, "Well … I'm actually not a big sports fan."
Luke laughed and put his arm around Jeff's shoulder. "Jeff, how can a man say no? You need to exercise more, or you won't last long if you just drink snake wine. "
