“Cuckoo…”
His stomach growled again. At this moment, his stomach was empty and his thoughts were interrupted by the gradually rising feeling of hunger.
Lin Ke hasn't eaten anything since stuffing his internal organs and intestines back into his body.
Perhaps this is because my body has fully recovered, and I have been too busy recently to take care of my body's feelings.
So, after the battle was over and the work was done, the feeling of hunger came up.
"Alan, prepare the meal." Lin Ke ordered the servant standing beside him.
He didn't look up, his tone was flat, he just wanted to fill his stomach quickly.
Allen, dressed in a linen robe, bowed his head respectfully. His thin body made the clothes, which were not very long, look extremely loose.
"Yes, Your Majesty Pharaoh." He then turned around and quickly retreated to prepare meal for the Pharaoh.
Although there is a shortage of supplies in the capital, even the most ordinary meal must be fully prepared according to the rules, even in such a difficult environment today.
Soon after, the servants entered the hall carrying gold plates and silver utensils, walking in unison and with slow movements.
The long table was filled with thinly sliced bread, dates pickled in honey, and a small plate of crucian carp fried in a little fish oil.
Next to it was a pot of clear pomegranate juice and a bowl of thick porridge made from grains.
Allen held the golden plate in both hands and walked slowly to Lin Ke. Then he knelt on one knee and raised the food respectfully above his head.
He lowered his head slightly, his eyes cast toward the ground, and said in a humble voice, "Your Majesty, the meal is ready. Your Majesty can enjoy it at any time."
Although the food variety seemed complete, it was far from the diet he was used to before he came here.
The biscuits were astringent and hard, the sweetness of the honey was too monotonous, and the fishy smell was a bit pungent.
Even the coarse grains mixed in the porridge made each mouthful seem sticky and difficult to swallow.
He picked up a piece of bread, took a bite, and immediately felt his mouth dry, as if he was biting into a piece of tasteless mud.
Although there was not much expression on his face, there was a hint of surprise in his eyes.
This thing is so disgusting!
Then he picked up the pomegranate juice, took a sip, and the sour taste rushed to the tip of his tongue like needles.
He just felt the muscles in his neck tightening.
It’s so sour!
But the body seems to be feeling pleasant?
Is this the smell that this body is used to and likes... Lin Ke couldn't help but frowned.
When Allen saw Lin Ke's face change slightly, his hands began to tremble slightly involuntarily, and even sweat began to appear on his forehead.
His eyes were wandering, and he didn't dare to look directly at Lin Ke. He just lowered his head and looked at the ground. He said in a very careful tone: "Your Majesty the Pharaoh, do you need to change a dish?"
"No need." Lin Ke waved his hand.
Although he felt a little uncomfortable, he continued to pick up the honey-pickled dates and put them into his mouth.
The sweet taste spreads on the tip of the tongue, but it doesn't match the taste of the bread and fish.
It was too sour and too sweet... Lin Ke's expression remained normal, but his Adam's apple moved slightly when he swallowed the food.
The servants on the side still stood respectfully, not daring to make any sound.
Lin Ke picked up the cup of pomegranate juice and took a sip. The sour taste immediately rushed from the tip of her tongue to her mind like a sharp electric current.
He frowned, but had to admit that the piercingly sour taste actually swept away all the fatigue in his body.
Lin Ke thought he had gotten used to this rough food, but after a few bites, he felt dry mouth and a dull feeling in his stomach.
There was still a lot of pomegranate juice left, and considering that the current food reserves were not sufficient, he picked up the pomegranate juice again and took a sip.
The sour taste made his throat tighten again, and at this moment, Lin Ke couldn't help but frown slightly.
"Forget it." He pushed the cake on the plate aside and gently put down the cup in his hand. He couldn't eat anymore and his stomach was almost full.
After getting used to rich and varied food, I lose interest in such featureless and crudely made food.
The Egyptian region was not rich in resources, which resulted in a shortage of food. Naturally, those who made and processed food did not have that many test samples to use for experiments.
As a result, the food naturally does not have much distinctiveness, and most of it retains its most basic original flavor.
Chinese food, French food and other cuisines are better than what he eats now.
For him, the food now is too monotonous and too unpalatable, but for the people here, they have naturally gotten used to it.
And he was just filling his stomach.
In the face of life and death, the desire for food and drink is not important.
Lin Ke immediately looked up and called out, "It's a shame to waste so much food. Allen, are you hungry? Come over and help me eat."
Upon hearing this, Allen immediately showed a look of panic.
His thin body trembled slightly, his breathing became rapid, and his eyes were filled with tears in an instant.
Lin Ke frowned and whispered, "What are you doing? There are only a few pieces of cake. If you don't eat them, don't waste them."
However, Allen fell to his knees, holding his head in his hands, unable to utter a word.
Looking at his appearance, Lin Ke knew that the majesty of the Egyptian Pharaoh was like a god and could not be offended to ordinary servants. They never dared to touch anything of the Pharaoh easily, let alone accept his gifts directly.
Helplessly, Lin Ke had to wave his hand and let the other servants take away the food on the table, and reminded them: "Share these meals and eat them, and don't waste the pomegranate juice."
The servants bowed their heads and agreed, not daring to look at him, but just nodded frequently, and even their voices were very low.
