Chapter 214 Hawking Tavern
Chapter 214 Hawking Tavern
Xu Weiwei and his group stepped into the busiest street block in the capital of the planet Dewolf.
The houses here are compact and low, with a five-story building only three stories high. The walls are gleaming with a faint light, and the roofs are covered with colorful tiles, as if they contain mysterious power, adding a touch of brilliant color to the entire block.
The streets are lined with a wide variety of shops and stalls, where dwarf stall owners enthusiastically hawk their wares, ranging from exquisite handicrafts to practical tools.
In a corner of the block, a huge stove was burning, and the flames lit up half the sky. The dwarves were busy beside the stove, roasting huge skewers of meat. Not far away, several dwarf carpenters were concentrating on making furniture, and the hammers and chisels in their hands left beautiful patterns on the wood.
The entire block was filled with a strong atmosphere of dwarven culture, making Xu Weiwei and others feel as if they were in a magical world.
In addition to the dwarves, they also saw many ordinary humans like them, as well as some races with strange appearances. Everyone was used to it.
It seems that this is a very inclusive place, Xu Weiwei thought.
None of them had eaten dinner yet. When they smelled the delicious food all over the street, they felt hungry and decided to find a place to eat first.
"Boss, which restaurant on this street has the best food?" Sifos asked as he walked to a stall selling baked bread.
"That depends on how much money you're prepared to spend. The prices at the barbecue stalls are all similar, but each has its own characteristics. We locals like the 'San Jin Barbecue' on the corner the most, but there are many people there, so you can't rush them. San Jin has a bad temper."
"Why is the boss called 'Sanjin'?" Xu Weiwei asked curiously.
"When he was born, he weighed three pounds. He was a strong boy, so he was called that. The little girl is so beautiful! Come, have some bread."
The eldest sister of the dwarf tribe directly picked up a bread that was bigger than the plate on Xu Weiwei's face and handed it to her.
Xu Weiwei quickly waved her hands to refuse: "No, no!"
"No money, Auntie is treating you, take it!" The eldest sister stuffed it into Xu Weiwei's hand and looked at Kane and the others, "Handsome boys, do you want to eat?"
He said and was about to take it without waiting for anyone to answer.
Kane and the others were afraid that the scene just now would happen again, so they quickly took two steps back.
The dwarf girl next to him put her hands on her hips and said angrily, "Mom! You're like this again! Do we still want to make money?! You can't just give away pretty girls for free!"
"Oh, Mom can't help it. You little bitch, you dare to teach Mom a lesson in front of others..."
In just two minutes, Xu Weiwei was startled three times. Faced with the quarrel between the mother and daughter, the bread in her hand became a hot potato.
"We can't take your stuff for free," Sifus interrupted. "The bread is delicious. We want to buy two more. Including this, it's 12 German francs, right? I'll transfer it to you."
Sifos glanced at the price tag in front of the stall, then opened the One Coin app and paid the money. The corresponding star coins were deducted from the account according to the exchange rate.
The proprietress's daughter quickly prepared the food for them. "You're looking for a place to eat, right? The biggest shop on this street is owned by Hawking. It's called Hawking's Tavern. Even though the name suggests it only sells alcohol, it actually serves a lot of food as well. It's the same here."
"Oh, how do I get there?"
"Just walk down this street and you'll see it when you see 'The Big Barrel.'
After thanking him, Siphos left with his wife, children and companions.
Xu Weiwei held the first big bread in her hand, and a faint sweet smell wafted over. She lowered her head and took a bite. The freshly baked bread had a crispy crust and soft inside, and the sweetness was just right, not greasy at all.
Xu Weiwei directly fed it to Sifos' mouth: "Dad, here."
Sifos took a big bite from the spot where Xu Weiwei had bitten. "Mmm, delicious."
Although the bread was big, ten people could only share it to taste it. Along the way, they also saw many food stalls, some of which looked delicious, and some looked scary.
For example, there were big white bugs as big as rugby balls and black beetles as big as fists. To be honest, they smelled really good, with a very special aroma. There were also many Devores customers at the stall.
Xu Weiwei really wanted to give it a try, but the two beautiful ladies couldn't see anything. They just glanced at her out of the corner of their eyes and urged them to pass by quickly as if they were avoiding a flood or a beast.
Finn was the same. Although his reaction was not as big, his frown clearly showed that he was not very interested in this kind of thing either.
Apart from the three of them, the others were more curious and eager to try. After all, they were also people who had been baptized by the fried cicada monkey. A new map had been unlocked in the field of food.
But in order to take care of the feelings of the two ladies, everyone tacitly chose to give up temporarily.
After walking for about ten minutes, they saw the "big wine barrel" mentioned by the proprietress's daughter.
To be precise, it is a huge barrel-shaped fountain that stands in the center of the intersection. It seems to be a landmark building in this neighborhood.
Behind the fountain, at the corner of the intersection, was the "Hawking Tavern" they were looking for. With a conspicuous golden sign and stone exterior walls, it was much larger than the taverns they had seen along the way.
Through the huge glass, you can see that the place is packed with tourists, clinking glasses and playing finger-guessing games, it is very lively.
Xu Weiwei couldn't help but worry if there were any empty seats inside.
Pushing open the intricately carved rear curtain door and walking into the tavern, the interior decoration is rough yet delicate. On the wall hangs a huge painting showing the history of the dwarves, the floor is covered with thick carpets, and in the center is a huge iron chandelier.
In a corner of the tavern, a dwarf band was playing cheerful music.
"Hey! Look here!"
Sifos lowered his head and saw the dwarf waitress standing in front of him. She was barely as tall as his waist and should not be an adult yet. She might be the boss's daughter.
"You are here to eat, right? There are no seats left on the first and second floors. I will take you to the third floor. Follow me."
The waiter took them into the elevator. Ten people plus an iron shell filled the elevator to the brim. Sifos and Adjutant Qiu even had to bend over to get in.
However, even after entering, the two still had to lower their heads slightly, otherwise they would hit the ceiling.
The waiter saw the two's predicament and said in surprise: "You are too tall! Are you from the land of giants? You must be over two meters tall."
"No, I'm 1.89 meters tall and he's 1.85 meters tall," said Sifos.
"It's so high! I told my father a long time ago that I wanted to raise the elevator, but he always said it was unnecessary. Now it turns out that I was right!" said the waiter angrily.
When they came out of the elevator, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
