"That's not how barbecue is grilled. You're all burnt." While Zhou Wen was thinking, he was awakened by a woman's voice.
Looking up, it turned out that Li Weiyang sat down on the chair next to him. The girls had already gone to play with Li Xuan and others. He and Li Weiyang were the only two people left at the barbecue stall.
"Give it to me." Li Weiyang stretched out her hand in front of Zhou Wen.
Zhou Wen was so engrossed in his thoughts just now that he forgot to hold the barbecue in his hand. He had roasted it for too long and the outside of the meat was burnt black.
Zhou Wen embarrassedly handed the barbecue skewers to Li Weiyang's hand. Li Weiyang put the burnt meat aside, took a few fresh skewers, and grilled them on the charcoal fire.
"At first glance, you look like a young master who has never suffered anything. You don't even know how to barbecue. Although this is not a skill, food is the foundation of our human survival. Without food, even an epic strong man will be killed. Starving to death, now that large areas of land are occupied by dimensional fields, the area where humans can harvest food has been greatly reduced, and unnecessary waste still needs to be avoided."
Li Weiyang said while grilling, "Let me teach you how to grill. After you leave the academy and really enter those wild dimensional fields, the food you can get by then will probably be mainly raw meat. Barbecuing is also a necessary skill." , at least it can make you feel more comfortable eating outside. The most important thing about barbecue is the control of the heat..."
Zhou Wen actually knows how to cook barbecue, but he was just thinking about something, so he forgot about the barbecue in his hand, and this happened.
Now when Li Weiyang said this, he did not refute, but as he listened, Zhou Wen suddenly had a flash of inspiration in his mind and stared straight at the meat that Li Weiyang was roasting.
The muscles and fat are roasted over the fire until they become sizzling, giving off an appetizing aroma.
"I remember that when humans first used fire, it was to ward off wild beasts and cook food. Suiren, one of the Three Emperors, achieved such great achievements because he brought fire to humans. He was respected by the humans in the East District as one of the Three Emperors. The head of the emperor. Could it be said that the fire power contained in the ancient emperor's scripture is not actually the destructive power of flames, but the vitality of flames?"
The more Zhou Wen thought about it, the more he felt that it was right. He had always wanted to find the shadow of the Ancient Emperor Sutra in the power of flames, but the fire power in the Ancient Emperor Sutra was not biased towards lethality.
With ordinary fire element vitality techniques, after being promoted to legend, combined with some vitality skills, you can achieve the effect of releasing the fire element's power.
However, the Ancient Emperor Sutra has no such effect. The flame power attached to it is subtle and restrained.
"People say that water is the source of life, but they don't know that fire is the source of civilization. Without the existence of fire, perhaps life would not be born in the cold world... Without fire, humans would not be able to eat cooked food and kill animals. Parasites in some food..." Zhou Wen watched the barbecue on the charcoal fire, and more and more thoughts flashed through his mind, but they were a little scattered and he had not yet grasped the point.
"I'm talking to you. Did you hear what I said? Next time you grill the meat, you can't burn the meat." Li Weiyang said while grilling the meat.
"It's so beautiful." Zhou Wen said as he looked at the flames. At this moment, he felt that the flames seemed a little different from usual, exuding a kind of moving brilliance.
Usually when Zhou Wen looked at those flames, he only felt their heat and lethality, but now when he looked at those flames, he felt that there seemed to be some kind of rhythm of life energy in the flames.
Although Zhou Wen is still unable to accurately grasp the nature of the impact of flames on life, in his eyes, flames are no longer as simple as a destructive force.
"What did you say?" Li Weiyang was slightly startled and turned to look at Zhou Wen.
"It's so beautiful. I never noticed that it usually looks so hot, but it turns out that it has such a beautiful and moving side." Zhou Wen stared at the roasted meat and said, naturally he was talking about those flames.
Li Weiyang is not a god, so she cannot see what is going on in Zhou Wen's mind. When she heard Zhou Wen speak like this, she thought that Zhou Wen was talking about her. She couldn't help but blush slightly on her cheeks, and said with some embarrassment, "It's just a roast, it's not..." What a big deal, it’s not as good as you said.”
"No, for me, this is the most important thing. It's so beautiful." Zhou Wen stared at the flames and said, his body and mind had been attracted by the beating flames.
"You...you come with so much nonsense...eat your barbecue..." Li Weiyang handed the barbecue to Zhou Wen. She was a little shy, being praised like this by a boy, even though she was usually very hot. She had a bad temper and was a little embarrassed.
"I finally understand. It turns out that the real characteristic of fire is not destruction, but life. The fire of life is what makes it truly beautiful and moving. I finally understand." Zhou Wen got up and walked back. He finally understood why he had He has been unable to understand the true meaning of the ancient emperor's scripture. He originally had the wrong direction from the beginning.
Now Zhou Wen just wants to go back immediately and study the Ancient Emperor Sutra again. The excitement can hardly be suppressed.
Li Weiyang held the barbecue, and everyone was dumbfounded. They watched Zhou Wen run away, and their minds were filled with questions: "Fire? Beautiful? Touching? What the hell?"
"What's wrong with Zhou Wen?" Li Xuan came over and looked at Li Weiyang doubtfully and asked.
"How do I know what happened to that lunatic? I'm not a lunatic." Li Weiyang angrily shoved the barbecue to Li Xuan, stood up and left.
"What are you talking about? What's wrong with one or two of them?" Li Xuan looked confused. He didn't know why Li Weiyang was so angry.
After Zhou Wen returned to the dormitory, he began to meditate on the Ancient Emperor Sutra in the practice room. He soon discovered why the fire power of the Ancient Emperor Sutra was so weak.
This is not because the Ancient Emperor's Scripture is not strong enough, but because too much is not enough. The true essence of the Ancient Emperor's Scripture is life. If the power of fire is too strong, it will destroy everything, including life.
Therefore, the power of fire must be present, but it must not exceed a certain limit.
Just like the sun's role for human beings is the same. With the sun, there are day and night and four seasons. With the sun, there is the possibility of life.
But if the earth is too close to the sun, all plants and animals on the earth will be scorched, and no life can withstand it.
"It's just like barbecue. It's too raw to swallow, too burnt, and inedible. The most touching thing in life is that little spark." Zhou Wen felt vaguely that he had caught something, but for a moment It's not possible to grasp it accurately.
For several days, Zhou Wen studied the Ancient Emperor Sutra in the practice room, and learned more and more about the true meaning of the Ancient Emperor Sutra.
