Chapter 439 - the Meteor Explosion Of Kunlun
Chapter 439: the Meteor Explosion Of Kunlun
Ling Ping’an pulled a few pieces of fish slices into his stomach.
He shook his head.
The fish slices he ate raw only had the taste of dipping sauce but the ingredients themselves weren’t very good.
In any case, as Ling Ping’an ate, he tasted a lot of other flavors.
Plastic, oil and even a faint metallic smell.
Although these flavors were extremely bland, they couldn’t escape Ling Ping’an’s tongue!
Basically, they could be eaten as soon as they entered his mouth!
“This tongue of mine seems to be much more sensitive…” he sighed.
This was also the trouble of being a gourmet.
Even though it suppressed most of the sensitivity of the tongue, it was still very sensitive.
There was no strange smell and it could escape from this tongue that had an extreme pursuit of delicacies.
Meow!
The kitten in his arms suddenly let out a cry, then jumped to the ground and ran to an aquarium.
Ling Ping’an looked and laughed. He walked over and picked up the little guy.
Then, he raised his head and saw the aquarium.
It was very big!
There were more than twenty dark red crabs inside. Each of them was about half a meter long. They swam in the aquarium and looked very energetic.
There was a label on the aquarium: pine leaf crab. Below it was the place of origin: Hokkaido, Fusang.
Ling Ping’an looked at it and asked his pet, “Little Girl, do you think these crabs will be very delicious?”
Meow!
The little guy cried out softly.
Ling Ping’an nodded, “Then take one!”
He took a net from the aquarium and took one out.
When the crab came out of the water, it immediately jumped up and down.
However, Ling Ping’an looked at this thing and had a headache, “How do I eat it?”
Coincidentally, someone not far away was also holding a net and pulling out a huge king crab.
Then, he brought the crab to the service desk in the middle of the restaurant.
Immediately, a waiter came up and took the crab away and took it to the kitchen.
Ling Ping’an was immediately amused, “So that’s how it is!”
Then, he walked over with the crab in his hand.
A waiter standing at the service counter immediately bowed and greeted, “Good morning, young master. Did you bring the invitation letter?”
Ling Ping’an nodded and took out the crumpled invitation letter from his hip pocket and handed it over.
At first, the waiter was a little disdainful, but when he saw the color of the invitation letter, his expression immediately changed and his tone became warm, “Young master, you chose this pine-leaf crab that was caught in cold water in Hokkaido, Fusang. Hokkaido is called snow crab…”
“The most suitable way to eat this kind of crab is to eat it with delicacies and steam it…”
“I don’t know what you mean?”
Ling Ping’an thought for a moment and said, “Then half delicacies and half steam it!”
“Okay!” The waiter took the crab, bowed again and handed a plate to Ling Ping’an, “Please take this plate and wait at your seat. Our chef will take care of your ingredients for you!”
Ling Ping’an nodded, took the plate, carried his cat and returned to his seat.
…
In the kitchen.
A few chefs were gossiping.
They were the head chefs of the major hotels in the imperial city and they were invited by the royal family to be the head chefs of the Luming Villa.
Naturally, chefs of their level would not easily take action.
Usually, the work was left to the subordinates.
At this moment, a waiter walked in with a crab in his hand.
“Mr. Zhang!” The waiter said to a chef, “You are the master of Guangnan cuisine. This time, you have to work hard to make this crab…”
“What’s wrong?” A fat chef in his forties narrowed his eyes and smiled, “Is there a VIP?”
“Yes!” The waiter said, “A black invitation letter…”
“He’s sitting over there…” he pointed to a corner of the restaurant.
The fat chef followed the waiter’s instructions and looked over. He saw a young man holding a cat sitting in a corner with a cell phone in his hand. Who knew what he was looking at?
The fat chef narrowed his eyes and asked the waiter, “Are you sure it’s a black invitation letter?”
“I’m sure!” The waiter nodded seriously, “Mr. Zhang… Everyone, don’t you trust me?”
“How could I dare to joke with you about this kind of thing?”
The fat chef and his colleagues looked at each other. Then, he was the first to take the crab and smiled, “In that case, please wait a moment!”
This time, all the famous chefs of the sorority in the imperial city were rushing to sign up. They were working for the imperial family for free!
There was even a competition held for this.
Those who could come here were all top-notch famous chefs!
The reason was that everyone knew that this sorority was an excellent opportunity to showcase themselves. It was also a stage that could make a name for themselves and become famous in the world.
The people attending the gathering were all the elites and talents in the world!
Among them, there were many crouching tigers and hidden dragons.
As long as they could attract the attention and appreciation of an important figure.
Their status in this lifetime could be said to be ‘stable’.
In the field of chefs, if they wanted to become famous, it was just a way to make a name for themselves by relying on their superb skills and taste.
They had all made it this way.
However, their current status was already at the end of the line.
If they wanted to go up another level, they had to be appreciated by a big shot!
Just like now, almost every top restaurant and restaurant in the imperial city had a nomination for a big shot!
Naturally, they also knew what a black invitation meant?
A direct invitation from the imperial family!
This was a real big shot. He was definitely qualified to appreciate and support such a big shot!
As long as the dishes were made to please him.
In the future, if he was invited to write a name and leave a seal as the treasure of the restaurant, it would be enough to turn a restaurant into a century-old restaurant!
This was something that all his descendants would be able to benefit from!
Therefore, the few chefs felt their hearts burning.
However, the fat chef was already ahead of them, so they could only feel sour.
“That person’s clothes are just so-so!”
“It seems that he isn’t a big shot!”
“Yes! Yes!” Someone immediately echoed, “The sorority hasn’t started yet. How could a real big shot come so early?”
That was right!
They had done their homework before coming.
In previous years, the real big shots of the sorority would always appear at the finale.
They even needed the royal family to personally send people to the airport to welcome them.
For example, the King of the Western Song Dynasty who had already arrived in the capital, the two princesses and princes he had brought with him, had always been in the imperial palace. They did not even have the intention of coming here!
The bigwigs of the delegations from various countries that had arrived in the capital one after another were the same!
They either waited in the embassy or stayed in the imperial palace.
This was the Federal Empire!
Even now, it was a modern society!
But, in the end, it was still that ancient country that had great etiquette and the beauty of its attire was for the sake of Xia!
It was still the center of the world, the heart of the world!
It was so in the past and it was so now!
Therefore, the adults were very particular about ostentation and etiquette.
How could a real big shot casually sit alone in a corner?
Shouldn’t they rush forward and rush back? No matter where they went, they had to clear the area and even pull the cordon.
There were hundreds of security personnel and dozens of followers?
What kind of big shot was this?
Of course, they were just jealous because they knew that they could get a direct invitation from the royal family.
Even if they weren’t now, they would definitely be big shots who could stir up the world and even lead the trend of the world in the future!
“Fatty Zhang is lucky!” The chefs were furious in their hearts.
…
Holding the menu, Ling Ping’an looked at the news on his phone and happily ate the melons.
This kind of foreign royal family scandal had always been the material that the people of the Empire liked to see and hear.
Even though Ling Ping’an still didn’t know where Poland was? How big was the country? What was its history?
But this didn’t stop him from eating melons.
Moreover, Ling Ping’an discovered that on the internet, it wasn’t just the people of the Empire who were happily eating melons.
Netizens from all over the world also joined in.
The day before yesterday, no matter how arrogant the actions of the Prince of Poland were, the people of the world were having a lot of fun eating melons now.
As a result, many of the comment sections were filled with people from all over the world.
For example, a netizen from Fusang left a comment, “I have long heard the Land of Qin and Land of Qin is a land of benevolence, filial piety and that brothers are humble and respectful. Today, I see that it is indeed so!”
There was a comment under this comment, “It is indeed a land of enlightenment, a land of benevolence and righteousness!”
Then, countless people copied this comment.
As a result, the comment section became a sea of joy.
Ling Ping’an looked at it and smiled until his eyes curved.
He was watching with incomparable joy.
Suddenly, he saw a piece of news at the bottom of the trending section: Kunlun Mountains!
He got curious and clicked on it.
He saw a video.
It was a very short video, only about ten seconds long. From the angle of the video, it should have been taken by a tourist on a road trip in the early hours of last night or before dawn.
At first, only the cars were moving forward slowly.
Suddenly, the sky lit up.
Countless meteors streaked across the sky, leaving long trails behind as they fell towards the mountains in the distance.
For a moment, the stars fell like rain!
Then, the exclamations of the cameramen continued to appear: Holy sh*t! Holy sh*t! Holy sh*t!
The video ended here.
Ling Ping’an looked at it and opened the comment section.
In the end, he didn’t see any comments.
That was because the comment section had been closed: according to the relevant laws and regulations, the relevant comments had been blocked!
He frowned and continued scrolling.
He kept seeing short videos uploaded from all angles and from all directions.
On the mountain, by the river, on the grassland…
Different angles and different filming methods simultaneously reflected a fact: the northwest Kunlun Mountain region had a rare meteor explosion last night!
It was a pity that the comment sections of all the videos had been closed.
In the end, Ling Ping’an finally found an official announcement: the entire Kunlun Mountains and its surrounding areas had been locked down.
The military had already entered and started to implement the lockdown order.
Ling Ping’an was puzzled, “It’s just a meteor explosion… Isn’t the official reaction a little too extreme?”
Although this kind of thing was very rare, it was not unheard of.
Meteors falling from the sky and bombarding mountains and plains had appeared in recent years.
However, the scale was very small, usually only one or two meteors.
Like those videos, the entire sky was lit up by meteors. It was indeed rare.
However, why would a normal astronomical phenomenon have such an excessive reaction?
Ling Ping’an even thought that it was an alien invasion!
Thinking of aliens, Ling Ping’an found the official account of the Federal Empire’s Space Agency on wechat read to see the reaction of the scientists.
Therefore, he saw a news update that had just been released: the Federal Empire’s Space Agency’s report on the Kunlun Mountain Meteor incident.
He took a look and found that the explanation was very reasonable.
It was an asteroid in low Earth orbit. At around 10 o’clock last night in the imperial capital, it entered the atmosphere through the orbit of the western Liangzhou. The asteroid was scraped and burned by the atmosphere and turned into hundreds of meteorites that weighed several kilograms, falling into the Kunlun Mountain area.
At present, there were no casualties reported. The Space Agency had sent a team of experts to the Kunlun Mountain area to collect samples of meteorites.
“It should be like this, right?” Ling Ping’an nodded and turned off his phone.
In his mind, this was the most authoritative scientific explanation and he should believe it!
…
Li Shouyi jumped from the helicopter onto the glacier in the Kunlun Mountains.
This was a very ancient glacier.
According to the geologists’ speculation, its origin was estimated to be tens of millions of years ago!
However, at this moment, there was a faint glow of psionic power inside the glacier.
He landed at the bottom of the core of the glacier and stared at the interior of the glacier, the place where psionic power shone.
He was evaluating the changes in the core.
“I estimate that within a year, this glacier will be extraordinary!” Li Shouyi evaluated.
Extraordinary was a change that occurred with a small probability after the recovery of spirit aura.
It referred to the strange changes that occurred in certain mountains, great lakes or certain places at the bottom of the sea under the blow of spirit aura tides.
Such changes were generally good.
For example, at the bottom of the East Sea, between the islands where the Fusang Kingdom and the Silla Kingdom intersected, there was a transcension beach.
This beach was more than 1,000 meters underwater, covering an area of more than 1,000 square kilometers.
The ruins of the ancient underwater dragon palace were often reflected.
Therefore, every time the ruins were reflected, all kinds of natural treasures could be found.
For example, spirit pearls, spirit shells and spirit fish.
They could even find extremely rare spirit turtles!
That was amazing!
The spirit turtle was a sacred object!
Just the turtle shell could predict the good and bad and predict the disaster.
It was enough to make it a priceless treasure!
Because of this, Fusang and Xinluo almost fell out and they fought.
It was because of his mediation that the two countries reached an agreement and cooperated to develop it.
But now…
The area of the glacier under their feet was no less than that of the beach at the bottom of the sea!
The entire glacier could complete its transcendence within a year.
And its location was Mount Kunlun.
Think about it, what was the mythical grade of Mount Kunlun?
The capital under the Emperor, the Miao Garden!
The Celestial Emperor’s palace in the human world!
If it could reflect the shadow of the Celestial Emperor of the mythical grade, what kind of heavenly and earthly treasures would grow here?
More importantly…
Li Shouyi looked at an instrument in his hand.
This instrument showed that the entire Kunlun Mountain range, which stretched over two thousand kilometers and had a circumference of hundreds of thousands of square kilometers, showed many signs of transcendence similar to this glacier!
Psionic power was accumulating!
“Could it be…” Li Shouyi thought of the immortal mountain he saw last night.
“That Immortal Mountain will revive in Kunlun?”
“The mythical grade of Kunlun will appear in reality?!”
If that was the case…
Li Shouyi understood that this gift was too great!
Moreover…
Since Kunlun had returned…
What about the other immortal mountains?
For example, the mythical grade of Mount Tai that controlled underworld, the mythical grade of Mount Tai that communicated with the heavens…
There was also Mount Wangwu and Mount Taihang…
“The cataclysm in the world is probably far beyond my imagination and prediction!”
Li Shouyi sighed as he felt the psionic power within the glacier.
He had a premonition that once the Kunlun Immortal Mountain was revived…
Then, just the resources of this immortal mountain would probably be enough to support an unparalleled immortal God!
Thinking of this, Li Shouyi pressed down on his communicator.
He asked, “How is our guest now?”
After the communication device sizzled, an answer appeared. It was Zhang Hui, who had stayed in the imperial capital. “Reporting to commander-in-chief, our guest is now eating in the cafeteria!”
Li Shouyi nodded and said, “Entertain him well!”
“I’m afraid we owe him a huge debt that we can’t repay!”
Last night, Li Shouyi saw the immortal mountain pass through the thunderstorm and fall to the northwest.
He knew that if the immortal mountain directly hit the Earth, it would probably smash through the entire Kunlun Mountain!
With the mass of the immortal mountain that stretched for hundreds of miles, if it hit the Earth’s crust, it would at least trigger a strong volcanic eruption.
But…
That person made a move!
Therefore, the immortal mountain was shattered and fused into this world in a gentle way, not by falling directly.
They even dropped the imperial pulp and gave the mountains and rivers of the imperial capital!
This debt of gratitude was too great!
It was so great that Li Shouyi felt that even if the Federal Empire sold off their pants, they wouldn’t be able to pay it back!
Although, in this era, the one who owed a debt was the boss!
But they still had to consider the creditor’s fist!
Right now, the creditor’s fist was obviously very hard.
Therefore, the person who owed a debt still had to think of a way to repay the debt.
At least show a positive attitude to pay the debt!
This was the key!
