Add the chopped sauerkraut to the pot, and add some pickled peppers by the way.

After frying the sour aroma, pour in the filtered thick white fish soup.

While the sauerkraut and fish soup are bubbling in the reheating pot, sprinkle some dried chili and peppercorns to further enhance the spicy and numb taste of the soup.

Cook for about five minutes, take out the fully cooked sauerkraut and spread it in a large disc as the bottom of the sauerkraut fish.

The red fish slices on the side are almost marinated when they are cooked. The thick cut red fish meat is wrapped in egg white and starch, which is tender and crystal clear.

Turn the fish soup in the pot to low heat and continue to cook, add the red fish slices into the pot one by one.

Slow cooking on low heat can ensure that the fish fillets do not descale, and add fish meat into the pot to ensure that the fish fillets do not condense into balls.

Controlling such small details can make the final sauerkraut fish perfect both in terms of taste and appearance.

Cook for another minute or so, until the fresh and tender red fish meat is completely cooked, and the taste of the soup base is completely immersed in the meat, then you can pour the fish meat and fish soup on the sauerkraut bottom.

Pour oil into the pan one last time, more oil this time.

Add dried chili flakes and Chinese prickly ash to the hot oil, and wait for the choking aroma to be fried in the hot oil pan, and the golden oil will turn bright red.

Quickly start the pot, and pour the bright red oil on the top of the pickled fish.

The bubbling red oil melted into the fish soup, sticking to the fish, emitting heat and sizzling. The delicious flavor of this large pot of ingredients is fully stimulated by the hot oil.

The entire crimson space is filled with a strange and hot fragrance!

Finally, sprinkle a little fresh chopped coriander for decoration, a pot of SSS red fish as the main ingredient, and the fresh and hot pickled fish is ready!

"This smells delicious."

The [War] on the side seemed to be unable to hold back, disappeared from the spot, and then appeared like a ghost in the middle of the temporary kitchen.

Don just glanced at him lightly, and then, as if treating an ordinary diner, he pushed the dish forward and took out a pair of bowls and chopsticks from nowhere:

"The pickled fish you want, eat it while it's hot?"

...

The pickled cabbage at the bottom is topped with red fish slices, the pickled cabbage is sour, the fish fillets are white and tender, and the textures are clearly visible.

There is a layer of red oil floating on the top, with a few pickled red peppers floating on top of the red oil, and a bit of crisp coriander and green green peppercorns form a color contrast.

Smell it closely, the strong sour aroma and pepper flavor, with a little fish flavor and spicy red oil.

The fish with pickled cabbage made by Don is impeccable in terms of color and aroma.

[War] picked up the chopsticks very skillfully, caught a snow-white fish fillet, and a drop of red oil was just about to drip on the surface of the fish.

Before the red oil dripped, He put his chopsticks under the wide red hood.

Fish entrance.

The taste of the soup and red oil first melted in the mouth and rushed to the tip of the tongue, hot, spicy, fresh and numb.

Chew again, the fish meat has a little elastic skin, the meat is delicious and smooth, soft but not rotten.

The sourness of sauerkraut, the numbness of peppercorns and the spiciness of chili all blend together very well, but they do not overwhelm the guests. Instead, they highlight the umami taste of the fish.

After taking a bite of fish, [Zhan] didn't speak, but just nodded.

Then, He started picking up sauerkraut again.

The sauerkraut pickled by Donne, the stem is very crispy, but the leaves are slightly soft and rotten, absorbing the full soup.

After one bite, the soup overflows, and the sour juice mixed with the fish flavor rolls wantonly in the mouth, which is extremely enjoyable.

[War] nodded again, and did not speak the whole time.

Donne next to him stretched out his hand and touched his chin lightly. He was very confident in his cooking skills. This sauerkraut fish has been perfectly played, and it is definitely the best taste of SSS.

As long as the sense of taste is normal, it's just a person or a god, and after eating it, you will definitely praise it as delicious.

And after the evil god in red took two bites, he didn't say a word, and didn't continue to move his chopsticks, as if he was caught in some memory, and it made people wonder for a while whether he was satisfied with the meal.

It was silent for a while.

Dorn didn't really want to figure out the psychological activities of [War] at this time, so he silently shifted his attention to other things, such as the newborn red fish in the sky.

But I never thought that this small action would attract the attention of the red-robed evil god: "Why, are you still curious about the red carp?"

"There is still curiosity. For example, why did Red Fish provoke wars?"

I don't know if it was just after cooking, which caused some changes in his mentality. Don's tone seemed like the owner of the restaurant was chatting with the diners.

"Zhan Luan... Well, yes, a decent war has finally started in that world." The evil god in red robe said in a tone that seemed to be out of the way, "It's no wonder you came to the border of the dream to attack the red carp, trying to stop the war ?”

"That's right."

"But once the war starts, it's hard to stop." The evil god in red robe shook his head, "Human struggles, desires, and hatred will further expand the flames of war until the whole world is ignited. This has been the case from ancient times to the present. "

Dawn was noncommittal, but focused his gaze on the little one red fish.

And [War] continued to say: "As for the red carp, it is its duty to start a war, and this is what I gave it when I created it."

"Why did you do that?"

"You ask why? Does it need a why? You know my name is [War], right? The more wars are fought in this world, the stronger I will be. And when a large-scale war breaks out, I will start from Waking up from the crimson slumber."

[War] answered as a matter of course.

Don: ...

I don't know why, although this metaphor is very inappropriate. But listening to the description of the red-robed evil god, I always feel that he is using the red fish as an alarm clock...

[War]: "War will bring famine, plague and death. It will bring continuous power to Apocalypse. Therefore, large-scale war is the beginning of Apocalypse's awakening and the beginning of God's War."

Donne understood now.

Redfish is definitely not as simple as [war]'s wake-up alarm clock.

In a sense, its activity is the fuse of the future war of gods.

"Why do you tell me so much?" Donne looked at the evil god in red with complicated eyes.

"Ask why again, maybe I want to know more about you?"

I saw [Zhan Zhan] unhurriedly picked up a spoon, and scooped out a spoonful of sour soup from the disc containing pickled fish.

The entrance of the fresh soup.

Then, snap.

[Zhan] slowly put down the spoon: "The taste is very good, I am very satisfied."

Although it was a sentence that didn't match the preamble, after hearing this sentence, Donne subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief, and a big stone in his heart fell.

According to the agreement, as long as the Red-robed Cthulhu is satisfied with the pickled fish, He will release Don, allowing Don to return to reality with a warehouse full of red fish and fresh meat, leaving the crimson and boundless dreams.

Then this expedition against the red fish can barely be regarded as the achievement of the goal, and they returned victorious.

Just when Dorn was about to give up discussing God Wars and carefully asked if he could leave, [War] spoke again:

"You know? When my original body was copying [me] into the [Matrix], I kept thinking that after get off work, I could go downstairs to eat pickled fish with my colleagues. It said that I had worked overtime for several days and wanted to eat Ton likes it."

"But after I came to this world, I still kept this idea. Although this idea is far from being obsessed, and the impact on my conscious thinking is minimal, it is finally fulfilled today."

"What are you talking about?" Don was a little stunned when he heard the sudden words.

What "after get off work, I want to eat pickled cabbage fish with my colleagues" can also be understood as the idea before the "war" "time travel".

Moreover, it also explained to some extent why [War] watched Donne kill the red fish, and then came out to order food inexplicably. Let this strange behavior become a little more reasonable.

But what was the meaning of the first half of His sentence?

What "copy"?

What "matrix"?

Especially the word [Matrix], which is pronounced in Chinese, sounds unfamiliar to Don at first, but it seems a little familiar, as if he has heard it somewhere.

"I'm talking about the truth of this world, don't you want to know?" [War] responded in this way, and in His always majestic words, there seemed to be some kind of emotion that overwhelmed the cascading echoes.

This time it was exhaustion, deep exhaustion.

"I want to know, but I don't understand what you're saying."

[War] paused for a while, and there seemed to be another line of sight from under the red cloak. But this time, the line of sight is not as strong and stressful as before:

"Dawn, right? Let me ask you, how do you understand this world? Why do you think you appear in this world?"

Where do I come from? Where will you end up?

On Earth, this seems to be a philosophical proposition that can never be dialectically answered.

However, in the land of miracles, it seems that there is an answer to this question. At least for "outsiders" like Donne, there is an answer.

"I don't know. I used to think that I traveled to the Land of Miracles. However, I was later told that it doesn't seem to be the case."

"Hehe, time travel? If it's time travel, it seems quite interesting, at least more interesting than now."

[War] laughed, His smile didn't have much meaning of happiness, the whole piece of crimson trembled, and the cyclone floated.

"So, how on earth did I get here?" Don hesitated, and finally asked this question that has been bothering him.

"Before I answer you, why don't you answer a few questions for me first. Do you remember what you were doing before the so-called time travel?"

"Uh... work, and then downloaded a game I hadn't seen before on the Internet, and lay down in the game cabin. Then I came here."

"Game cabin... have you heard of Azure Space before?"

Another sudden rhetorical question.

Regarding this, Dawn shook his head in confusion at first, then nodded hesitantly as if he remembered something.

Azure space.

This seems to be the name of a technology giant in the Earth Era.

In my impression, this company is responsible for the development of brain-computer interface technology and virtual reality technology, and is a well-deserved leader in this industry.

The core technology used in the immersive game cabin in Donne’s study also comes from the company Azure Space.

Next to the breathing light in the game cabin, there is also the company's blue logo.

"Well, have you heard of Project Matrix?" [War] asked again.

The word "matrix" is indeed a little familiar to Dawn. But I can't remember exactly where I heard it.

"That's another way of saying it, I almost forgot, it's a more common name. Have you heard of the Human Immortality Project?" [War] obviously thought about it, and then changed his words.

Donne reacted at this moment.

He finally remembered why the word "matrix" sounded familiar.

The matrix plan, commonly known as the human immortality plan.

It is also sometimes called the Mind Immortality Project.

Donne seems to have learned about this cutting-edge technology concept in fragments in some science and technology articles and videos when he was surfing the Internet.

The so-called immortality of thought.

It is to upload human consciousness to the cloud, which is the matrix server.

The entire matrix will be an artificial heaven after the human body is extinct. As long as the server exists, all human beings who upload their consciousness here will enjoy eternal life in thinking.

In the second world woven by data in the matrix, they can indulge in endless joy and live forever.

During the period when Dorne existed on the earth, the matrix plan was still a conceptual technology in the public information, and at most it was just taking shape.

Although many wealthy people around the world have pre-purchased this kind of post-mortem service early, and spent a lot of money to buy tickets to the artificial heaven for themselves.

But the prototype technology is the prototype technology, not perfect.

It is really not known how long it will take to deepen the research and development for it to be put into social use and achieve the publicity and expected effects.

Donne only knew so much about the matrix plan.

After all, he is just a gourmet up owner who likes to play games on Earth, and it is not bad to have this level of understanding of the development of cutting-edge technology.

"Well, it seems that you understand something." [War] directly read Donne's thoughts, and then continued:

"Then I don't need to explain too much, let me add something you don't seem to know. First of all, the research and development of the Matrix Project was invested and led by Azure Space."

"Secondly, in fact, the research and development of this technology has achieved good results. At least we have been able to build a second world with sufficient details in the matrix server. Moreover, it has also achieved a copy of human thinking."

Don: "Wait a minute, copy? Isn't it mind uploading?"

"Your focus is pretty good." [Zhan Zhan] nodded, "Yes, at the point in time when I was copied into this world. The technology of the matrix plan can only realize the digital backup of human consciousness."
