The lone wolf of Freyrdrand

Ramen

Lothar looked back at Akali: “Don’t follow me.”

Akali pouted: “Unless you tell me how you can’t die, I’ll follow you to the death!”

Lothar had a headache. He began to regret getting involved with this girl, and it was impossible for him to bring Akali back.

“Where are your adults? They will be worried if you don’t go back.” Lothar persuaded.

Akali’s expression darkened, and she whispered, “She won’t be worried…”

“what”

“It’s nothing!” Akali yelled loudly, “Anyway, there must be a secret in you! How can someone stab the heart and return…”

Lothar covered Akali’s mouth, and looked at the passers-by who gathered their eyes: “Don’t talk nonsense on the street.”

“Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu!” Akali resisted fiercely, and simply took a bite out of Lothar’s hand.

“Are you transformed from a wild dog? Can you still bite people?” Lothar let go of his hand while learning and selling the Ionian rhetoric that he had only recently learned.

Akali saw with her own eyes that the blood mark on Lothar’s hand was slowly healing, and her eyes shone with excitement: “You are so strange! I never heard that there are people like you!”

“Oh…” Lothar knew that he was completely entangled, “Tell me, what do you want to do before you leave, I have important things to do, so I can’t play with you.”

“Goo…”

Akali’s stomach suddenly growled.

The little girl didn’t feel shy either, and said directly, “Take me to eat!”

“Will you leave when you’re full?”

“Look at my mood!”

LuoSa sighed, estimated the time, there was about half an hour before the meeting, one meal would be enough: “What do you want to eat?”

Akali’s eyes lit up, and she dragged Lothar to a trot all the way to a small restaurant.

“Civet cat… ramen?” Lothar barely recognized the name of the restaurant.

“This is the one!”

Akali dragged Lothar into the restaurant. The store manager was actually a civet cat-like vastaya, with a kind smile on his face: “Welcome!”

The store is very small, with only one stove and a row of seats. The soup is simmering in the pot, and the rich aroma also awakens Lothar’s appetite.

“That’s okay, I just happened to be hungry too.” Lothar sat next to Akali and said to himself, “I’ve been eating wild fruits and vegetables every day these days, and I haven’t eaten any serious Ionian food yet.”

“General! A bowl of tonkotsu ramen! Cover me with char siew!” Akali jumped onto the seat, looking very excited, her legs dangling non-stop.

“Okay!” The civet cat Vastaya looked at Lothar, “How about you, my guest?”

“Eh… the same as her.”

The ramen was brought up quickly. Lothar had never seen this kind of food before. It was covered with many ingredients such as meat, eggs, fresh vegetables and pickles, and there were many things that Lothar didn’t know. The bottom was the aroma Rich soup and noodles.

Lothar had also eaten noodles in Noxus, but this was the first time he had eaten noodles in soup.

Lothar looked around, but found no tableware: “Where’s the fork?”

Section 116

“Why are you looking for a fork when you are eating?” Akali glanced at Lothar like an idiot, took out two wooden sticks from the small bamboo tube on the table, hooked them nimbly with her fingers, and used them to pick up a large skewer Noodles, I started to eat them sucking and sucking.

“This is the tableware. Why isn’t it written in the book Swain gave me?” Lothar also took two wooden sticks in doubt, and clamped them like Akali.

Nothing was picked up.

“You don’t know how to use chopsticks.” Akali suddenly stared at Lothar vigilantly, “You are not from Ionia!”

The owner of the noodle shop also looked at Lothar.

“Too bad…” Lothar thought to himself.

After the war, the Ionians were extremely sensitive to outsiders, and many of them were aggressive and would even fight when they saw outsiders. Sirik and Karan often reminded Lothar not to admit that they were outsiders. people.

“What stupid things are you talking about? Of course I know how to use chopsticks.” Lothar pretended to be calm and scratched Akali’s nose, hooked his fingers around the wooden stick, and stuck it into the bowl.

Lothar smoothly picked up the noodles and put them into his mouth.

The owner of the noodle shop looked away, and Akali looked at Lotha a few more times suspiciously, but she was worried that her noodles would swell, so she didn’t think about it, and continued to eat.

“Huh…fortunately…” Lothar said happily in his heart.

Lothar never expected that the blade martial arts that he had practiced hard for a period of time would actually work at this time. The practice of blade martial arts made Lothar’s fingers extremely flexible, coupled with Lothar’s keen observation skills, as long as he pays a little attention, it is still very easy to imitate the force and movement of Akali’s fingers when using chopsticks.

Although he was using tableware that he was not used to, Lothar was quite satisfied with this meal.

The salty soup base is very thick, and the aroma of meat and bone is fully integrated into it. The noodles are covered with soup, and every bite is delicious. The most amazing thing is the pork called “char siu”, which is so delicious that Lothar’s tongue will fall off.

After a bowl of noodles, Lothar was so satisfied that there was not even soup left, so he drank it all.

Lothar looked at Akali. This little girl was like a starving ghost, and she had already eaten six bowls of noodles with her head down.

“Damn it, this girl eats so much, can I afford it…” Lothar secretly opened his bag. Sirik didn’t give him much money, and there were only some fine pieces of silver and two copper coins lying in the bag.

“Ha…” Akali let out a big breath, and put down the bowl contentedly. Her face was rosy, her eyes were blurred, and she looked extremely comfortable.

“Have you finished eating?” Lothar approached Akali and asked quietly.

“Well, what’s the matter?” Akali didn’t want Lothar to get too close to her, so she turned away.

“I have no money.” Lothar said in a low voice.

“Ha, you don’t have any money, so you still treat me to dinner?” Akali’s eyes widened. “Do you want to eat the overlord’s meal?”

Lothar didn’t know what Overlord Meal was, but since Akali said so, he agreed: “Yes.”

“You’re serious!” Akali kicked Lothar, but her eyes glowed with excitement, “I haven’t eaten the overlord’s meal yet! Good! Let’s run together!”

“Run” Lothar was stunned for a moment. He didn’t expect Akali to come up with such an idea, and thought, “This girl is planning not to pay.”

“Quasi [resource; source’ group]: 9? 8; 0; 2?. 0′. 5,, 8″5. ;6 ready, I started counting. “Akali secretly looked at the store manager, the civet cat Vastaya was still humming a little song to make soup, and didn’t pay attention to them, “One, two, three… slip away! ”

Lothar and Akali moved at the same time. Their speed was extremely fast. In the blink of an eye, the two of them disappeared into the store and ran to the end of the street like the wind.

“Huh…” The store manager heard the movement and turned around, “All the customers have left?”

He looked at the table, and there were two strings of silver coins lying quietly on it: “Oh, so the money has already been given.”

The store manager happily collected the money, wagged his tail and continued to cook his pork bone soup.

In the store, a purple lightning flashed past.

Ramen, a traditional food widely circulated in Ionia, is divided into monkey pie and raccoon pie, which were created by the Simi ape and Jiumon raccoon clan of the vastaya tribe respectively.

As the name suggests, Houpai ramen noodles are “pulled” by hand. Through repeated beating and pulling, the noodles will become extremely strong. It is said that the ramen noodles pulled by the most powerful Sima monkey master can even be used as bowstrings. Houpai ramen is usually paired with chili and shaozi. The overall taste is mainly spicy, but there are also fruit flavors.

Tanuki ramen does not pull noodles at all, but focuses on soup rather than noodles. Tanuki ramen is very particular about the soup base. Usually, a store will always boil a pot of soup and pass it down from generation to generation. It is said that some shops have a pot of soup that has been boiled for thousands of years. Tanuki ramen has a variety of flavors, but soy sauce ramen, shio ramen and miso ramen are still the three main genres.

Regarding the issue of not pulling raccoon ramen at all, the most mainstream view at present is that the ramen of raccoon pai ramen is a myth. Ordered “Ramen”.
