A train is traveling along the railway in the desert.
Strictly speaking, the surrounding area can't be considered a complete desert, because there are still some sporadic plants scattered on the Gobi, so that the sight is not full of yellow sand, but there are also some green accents.
"Egypt's climate has improved a lot since the construction of the Aswan Dam. There was no green at all in this desert before." Sitting in the carriage, Chen Mo looked out the window at the little bits of green that flashed from time to time.
Introducing to the O'Connors sitting in front of him.
"This is a wise decision by His Majesty the King." O'Connor heard Chen Mo's words and smiled a little awkwardly, but he still said a compliment.
But Evelin's expression on the side looked a little bad. As for the reason, you can understand it by taking a look at the Scorpion King bracelet that Evelin wore on her wrist.
After Chen Mo made the conditions, O'Connor agreed to Chen Mo's conditions without much hesitation and persuaded Evelin to help Chen Mo find the Amshay Oasis.
After all, Evelin somehow knew how to open the secret room in the temple where the Scorpion King's bracelet was stored, so O'Connor felt that his wife must know how to find the oasis.
However, after O'Connor persuaded Evelin, Chen Mo directly put the Scorpion King bracelet on her hand and told her that if she could not reach the Amshay Oasis within seven days, she would die.
This immediately made Evelin very dissatisfied, but considering her own life, she had to cooperate with Chen Mo.
O'Connor can understand why Chen Mo did this. After all, the Amshay Oasis is a legend, and various clues are hidden in the corners of history. Finding it out will undoubtedly be a huge project.
Rather than wasting so much time, it's better to just use the ready-made map.
And Chen Mo also promised that as long as Evelin didn't deliberately delay, they could get to Amshay on time.
However, this did not dispel Evelin's resentment, so she was always angry all the way.
Chen Mo didn't care at all about this. Although he had just returned from the world of Pirates of the Caribbean and was busy looking for Amshay and the Scorpion King, his schedule was indeed very tight.
But in this world, when he goes out, he can take the luxury train specially prepared for him by Ada Wang, instead of only taking a boat like in the Caribbean. The conditions are still much better.
Especially in terms of food, knowing that Chen Mo likes to eat Chinese food, Ada Wang specially invited several chefs to serve Chen Mo through her relationship with China.
In fact, they are now enjoying the skills of one of the Shandong cuisine chefs.
"Try it. Chef Zheng is an authentic Chinese Shandong cuisine chef. Many dishes are passed down to the palace. This is not something that Britain, a food desert, can match." Chen Mo motioned to the O'Connors to taste the dishes on the table.
O'Connor was very interested in this, but before he picked up the knife and fork, Evelin said viciously: "Really? What the so-called chef makes are these dirty animal offal? It seems like it is still
Intestines? They must be very poor, so they can’t afford meat.”
"Evelyn!" Jonathan on the side was about to cry. He was kidnapped from England without knowing anything. Now looking at his sister's attitude of confronting Chen Mo, who is already the king, it's really...
It scares him who is timid.
Even O'Connor on the side kept pulling Evelin and asking her not to do this.
However, if Evelin was a woman who could listen to others' advice, she would not have said such words that were obviously seeking death.
"If China is poor, it is because of the plundering of China by the British. Do you need me to enumerate to you the total number of unequal treaties signed by China and Britain? How much wealth has the UK plundered from China every year so far? Or do you need me?
Count down the crimes you British have committed over the past few hundred years, colonists." Chen Mo did not give Evelin a good look. Although she needed to find Amshay, Chen Mo would not spoil her.
He refuted her directly.
Evelin, who was scolded by Chen Mo, was immediately speechless. She also knew that Britain's butt was not clean.
Among other things, the Egypt they were in now had only gained its so-called independence from the British ten years ago.
In this matter, Evelin really had no possibility to refute Chen Mo.
This also made her sullen and angry.
However, Jonathan on the side quietly picked up the knife and fork at this time, ate his own portion of the dish, and praised in surprise: "It's so delicious! I have never eaten such delicious food! It's
It has a very special taste!”
"That's umami, which is a delicacy that Chinese food has been pursuing. Even if you travel around the world, you can't find another country that pursues such a pursuit of food. After all, we have a heritage of five thousand years."
Civilized history, an ancient country that has never been dated." Chen Mo was very proud of this.
"It's so delicious. It's just like your Majesty said. Compared with it, Britain is a food desert." Jonathan kept flattering Chen Mo at this time, hoping to please him, so as not to be disrespected by Evelin.
And was dragged out and executed.
O'Connor on the side finally had some family status, and after a low warning, Evelin was still able to shut her mouth.
Then he smiled awkwardly at Chen Mo, picked up the knife and fork and started eating.
It has to be said that there is no need to doubt the cooking skills of the Shandong cuisine master who was specially invited by Ada Wang to cook for Chen Mo. The food he cooked was also delicious that O'Connor had never tasted before.
"It is indeed very delicious. What is the name of this dish?" O'Connor showed a curious expression.
In this era, although there were also Chinatowns and Chinese restaurants in foreign countries, it was obvious that Chinese food was not as popular overseas as it would be in later generations, and it was impossible for O'Connor to know the name of the dish he ate.
"This dish is called Jiuzuan Large Intestine, which is pig intestines. As long as the animal offal is processed well, it is also a very delicious food. For some ordinary people, they cannot afford steak, but they can eat these to taste the meat.
Taste." Chen Mo's attitude towards O'Connor was quite friendly, but after explaining, he still said to O'Connor: "After we enter the Amshay Oasis, the Scorpion King will be resurrected, and then we will need a warrior to rely on his own strength.
Use the power to kill him and gain control of the Anubis Army.
I will challenge the Scorpion King personally, but I need you to help me create a chance to kill him, so I hope you will be prepared during this time, the Scorpion King is not easy to deal with."
"I understand, I will be prepared." O'Connor nodded, knowing that this was why Chen Mo brought him here.
Jonathan on the side couldn't help but asked with concern: "What about me? Why did you kidnap me all the way from England? I have nothing to do with this!"
"No, Jonathan, your golden stick is the necessary weapon to kill the Scorpion King." Chen Mo looked at Jonathan and the golden stick that he never left, and said with a smile.
