Food starts with Mapo Tofu

After leaving Mr. Huo's side, Chen Nian returned to his room and packed his last luggage, which didn't contain too many things.

Except for myself, most of the money is some clothes and the like.

However, I didn't take too many old clothes, and the weather will get cold in a month or two. If I take these single clothes, I won't be able to wear them at that time.

It's better to just take a few things that you usually change and wash, and wait until the weather is cold before buying.

Both Tonio and Lucas had disembarked ahead of schedule, one was going to follow the teacher, and the other was going back to his home.

After Chen Nian packed up, he carried a big bag and headed outside along the corridor.

Arriving on the deck, the Platinum Star had already docked at the pier, and the crowd below was bustling with people everywhere. Looking at the familiar pier, Chen Nian couldn't help smiling, and then he was about to disembark.

But at this moment, a voice suddenly came from behind.

"Mr. Chen, where are you going?"

The other party spoke English, Chen Nian turned his head curiously after hearing it, and saw that it was actually Paul, followed by a female assistant and a male younger brother.

These two people have seen each other for a long time.

"I plan to go to Chinatown first, after all, there are more Chinese there." Chen Nian said.

The so-called reaching out and not hitting the smiling face, and this is on the opponent's territory. Although Chen Nian wants to teach this Paul a good lesson, it is not convenient for him to do it in broad daylight. If Chen Nian meets in a dark corner If it comes to the other party, Chen Nian will never show mercy.

The other party nodded after hearing it, and finally didn't say much, he just said hello by the way.

Then Chen Nian stepped aside and let the opponent go first.

When you look back, take a look at the license plate of the other party, and tell Anna's family when the time comes, maybe it will be useful to them.

After the other party went down completely, Chen Nian picked up his bag again and planned to go down the gangway.

After identifying the location, Chen Nian walked across the road and planned to take a taxi to go directly to Chinatown. When getting in the car, Chen Nian took a look at Paul. He was hugging and greeting people in front of a limousine.

But the moment Chen Nian opened the taxi door, several gunshots suddenly came from nowhere.

Chen Nian was so frightened that he couldn't help shrinking his head back.

At the same time, these gunshots also caused quite a commotion. Chen Nian followed the sound and searched the crowd, and suddenly saw a man in black with a hat and mask holding a black pistol in his hand.

Apparently he was the one who shot.

"Mr. Paul, what's wrong with you, Mr. Paul!"

"Get in the car and go to the hospital!"

"Protect Mr. Paul!"

Chen Nian heard these few words again in the noisy voice, and subconsciously looked at Paul. Sure enough, the ground over there was covered with blood, and Paul was lying on the ground at the moment, with blood on his forehead, heart and throat. Bleeding in Pobo.

As soon as he saw these positions, Chen Nian knew that there was probably no way out!
"Good guy, I encountered such an exciting thing when I first arrived in the United States!"

Seeing that the other party was dead, Chen Nian guessed in his heart whether it was the killer Anna and the others found.

However, if this kind of thing happened, there would definitely be a commotion here. In order to avoid unnecessary trouble for himself, Chen Nian immediately got into the car.

"Go to Chinatown."

There were still gunshots coming from behind, Chen Nian looked out through the car window, and saw the killer firing a shot in the distance.

Those assistants and younger brothers who originally wanted to carry Paul into the car and rush to the hospital, after being shot a few times, immediately ignored everything, took out their guns to fight back, and quickly pulled Paul into the car under the cover of the car. car.

But on the way to pull the car, the killer nimbly ran and turned to the side of the car, and put a few more bullets on Paul's body.

After that, as the taxi in which Chen Nian was driving slowly, the killer also began to flee the scene quickly.

Chen Nian finally regained his composure, but at this moment he turned his head to look at the driver, but the driver turned around calmly, preparing to go to Chinatown.

"Aren't you afraid?" Chen Nian asked curiously.

But the driver shook his head and said noncommittally: "There is nothing to be afraid of. Living in the United States, it is normal for you to see such scenes, so don't easily offend people outside. Even if you encounter robbery, it is best not to resist. It's better to lose some money than to lose your life, isn't it?"

Hearing these very reasonable words, Chen Nian couldn't help agreeing.

"Sure enough, it's Free America, with gun battles every day."

Chen Nian couldn't help sighing.

"Where are you from? Are you Chinese?" The driver asked curiously after a while.

"Yes, I am Chinese." Chen Nian nodded.

"There are indeed many Chinese in Chinatown, but you have to be careful when you go there. I often run around in this area, and I know a lot about some things. Many Chinese people cheat Chinese people because they are not in their own country. , So you will subconsciously feel that your own people are not lying to your own people.

Then there is nothing. The fastest situation is that not only your money is cheated by others, but your own life may not be saved, or you are sold to Western California to dig gold and become a miner.

On the surface, it looks good, but in fact, not even half of the people who went there can come back alive. "

"Sure enough, there are good people everywhere." Looking at the driver, Chen Nian couldn't help but sigh in his heart, "After all, many people here discriminate against people of the yellow race, but this driver not only did not discriminate, but instead told himself earnestly for a long time. "

It didn't take long for the car to stop outside Chinatown.

"All right."

Chen Nian asked the other party the price, and then paid the other party an extra five dollars as a tip.

"Thank you, sir. I wish you a happy stay in the United States." The driver smiled happily. After all, the five dollars was enough for him to go back and forth from the pier to here twice.

"You're welcome." Chen Nian smiled, closed the door, and waved goodbye to the other party.

When Chen Nian got off the car outside the archway in Chinatown, he attracted the attention of many people, but Chen Nian didn't care about them, but walked straight inside.

As a result, at this moment, someone suddenly came up and asked: "Sir, do you take a rickshaw? San Francisco's Chinatown is the largest Chinatown in the United States. It's a long way to go. Why don't you take a car and I'll pull you there. It is also fate that we meet, how about letting me serve you?"

These words sounded very familiar to me. I used to meet people like this when I was in Chinatown, but at that time he was working there, and he was dressed in ordinary clothes, so naturally he had never been picked up by these cart pullers.

But now the clothes I'm wearing look a little cheap, and they come from outside, so I'm naturally being targeted.

But Chen Nian also knows that this kind of cart puller is actually oil. This kind of person is very smart. He doesn't tell you the price now. Once you tell him the price, he will flatter you in a roundabout way.

When you really arrive at the place, when the other party speaks, it's hard to refuse to take the car, and generally there are acquaintances at the destination, if the other party yells, it will be embarrassing.

So many people just gave it.

Chen Nian hadn't been here for a long time, so I naturally wanted to see the difference between this place and the time I was there.

"If you don't sit, I will go back here as if I were going home. Why do I still take a rickshaw?"

Chen Nian flatly refused.

After all, even if you have money, that's not how you spend it.

And if Chen Nian really wanted to take a car, he just let the taxi drive in.

Seeing what Chen Nian said, the cart driver couldn't help but be a little bit unconvinced. After all, he has been running here for so many years, and he has never seen Chen Nian.

"Then who are you looking for?" The turner was still a little unwilling to give up, so he asked one more question.

"I'm not looking for you anyway."

As Chen Nian said, he passed the other party and walked straight in. After hearing this, the puller felt as if he had been tricked.

"If you don't have money, you don't have money. What are you pretending to be? Look at that poor look. There are five or six people in clothes, and you can't even afford a car."

As he was talking, he saw Chen Nian walking in without turning his head, which made him a little angry. It happened that he lost a lot of money playing cards yesterday.

In addition, I met a newcomer like Chen Nian.

And looking at Chen Nian's attire, he felt that Chen Nian was more like someone who came to play than someone who came to find someone.

So I planned to chase after him, pretending to accidentally let my car hit the other party.

As a result, when the car was about to hit Chen Nian, Chen Nian suddenly dodged out of the way.

Seeing that he didn't bump into Chen Nian, the puller turned his head on the spot and wanted to scold Chen Nian for not having eyes that blocked his way, but as soon as he opened his mouth, Chen Nian flew up and kicked him in the chest superior.

"If you still want to stay here and pull the cart, don't make yourself uncomfortable. Since you are all Chinese, I will only teach you a little lesson. Don't let me see you again."

After Chen Nian finished speaking, he turned around and left.

In the beginning, Chen Nian just didn't want to cause trouble for himself, so he didn't bother to argue with the other party, but the other party was still stalking, so Chen Nian couldn't help it.

At any rate, he had learned one and a half moves in the martial arts gym. Maybe he would only be abused against Lianjiazi, but when he met ordinary people, Chen Nian could still hit two or three.

And Chen Nian's behavior was also seen by some other car pullers. Originally, they were still watching the fun from behind, but when they saw Chen Nian's sudden move, they couldn't sit still and wanted to come up to help their companions. Chen Nian's eyes stopped after that.

They looked at each other, but no one dared to come forward.

They heard the truth just now. Chen Nian said that he came to find someone. If the other party is not okay, but if what he said is true, then if they do something, maybe they will really offend someone. character.

"Forget it, go back and ask about it."

In the end, they could only comfort themselves in this way.

Walking on the road in Chinatown, the shops on both sides are exactly what Chen Nian remembered.

He even saw the shop where he got his haircut when he first came here.

"You are called Guishouqi, right? You are so brave, you dare to cut our boss's hair like this, are you impatient?"

When Chen Nian passed by, there were three tall and thick men in Guishouqi's shop, and one of them was holding Guishouqi's neck and said angrily.

"Gentlemen, don't do it. Let's talk about it. I can assure you that I didn't cut your hair randomly. Those Americans outside are cutting their hair like this."

These words made those people even more angry. Bad technology is bad technology, but they still use these words to lie to them?
So they didn't say any more, and they just went up and punched and kicked.

I could only hear the wailing of Ghost Hand Seven, and after those people finished beating Ghost Hand Seven, they picked up stools and smashed the shop to pieces.

Looking at old age is extremely enjoyable.

Unexpectedly, the same Ghost Hand Seven exists in a different world.

After stopping to watch for a while, Chen Nian continued to walk forward.

Not long after, another car passed by Chen Nian, vaguely through the glass, Chen Nian saw some girls sitting inside.

It is estimated that he was tricked to come here again.

The car quickly drove to the front of Chen Nian, turned a corner and disappeared.

On the familiar road, Chen Nian even saw some familiar people, but now Chen Nian knows them, but they don't know themselves.

After all, according to the recipe, this is a parallel world. Although it is exactly the same as the Chinatown in San Francisco where I was, the relationship between the two is like copying and pasting.

So Chen Nian didn't bother them, and just walked for about 10 minutes, and the sun was getting higher and higher.

Chen Nian finally saw a young man in front of the door pounding the medicine jar with a pestle.

Chen Nian also knew this person, and seeing him meant that he had already arrived at the restaurant opened by Master Qiao before.

Because there is only an alley in the middle between this pharmacy and Master Qiao's restaurant.

At that time, Chen Nian always went here to buy medicinal materials and asked Master Qiao to make Laohuo soup.

Thinking of this, Chen Nian couldn't help speeding up his pace.

It didn't take long before I came to a door. The heavy curtains had been hung up early, but standing at the door, Chen Nian could hear some noisy voices inside.

Although there are not many tables here, there are workers who come to eat every day or coolies working on the dock.

Chen Nian pushed open the curtain and walked into it.

And the boss here sensed that someone was coming, so he couldn't help but raise his head and look towards the door.

After seeing Chen Nian, although he felt a little familiar, he couldn't remember when he had seen Chen Nian, and finally had to blame Chen Nian, who also had an oriental face.

"Liangzi, what do you want to eat? We have jelly chicken, sea fish, and rice with salted egg meatloaf. You can eat anything you want."

Hearing this familiar voice and looking at this familiar face, Chen Nian couldn't help his nose sore, and tears welled up in his eyes.

"Master..."

He really wanted to shout, but now the master doesn't know him anymore, and Chen Nian still didn't say anything in the end.

He silently found an empty table and sat down.

"Have a salted egg patty, a bowl of rice, and an old fire soup."
