Thus, although the Wujin Kingdom has a strict hierarchy, it is governed by clear laws. People from all walks of life and various social classes can live and work according to their status, each finding their place in society. Along the way, I saw orderly and prosperous scenes, which must be closely related to this strict class system and clear rewards and punishments.
In contrast, the countries of the Central Plains advocate equality for all, yet they are plagued by constant warfare, leaving the common people homeless and without a stable place to live, making their lives even more miserable. Thinking of this, I couldn't help but sigh.
The Wujin Old Man, upon hearing this, asked with concern, "Little brother, is the food not to your taste?"
I quickly waved my hand and said, " Wujin Old Man, you misunderstand. The cuisine of your country is excellent and has truly opened our eyes. I was just thinking that although your country has a strict hierarchy, it is peaceful and stable, with everyone having their own support; it truly is a blessed land."
The Wujin Old Man smiled upon hearing this and said, "Little brother speaks wisely. However, every country has its unique aspects as well as its unspoken difficulties. To be honest with you, our Wujin Kingdom may seem vibrant and flourishing on the surface, but it is also fraught with crises."
As he spoke, he sighed and downed his drink in one gulp. The Wujin Old Man then set down his cup, his gaze dimming as a worried expression crossed his face. We exchanged glances, unsure of what hidden troubles the Wujin Kingdom might have.
Just as the Wujin Old Man was about to speak again, Wujin Old Mama quickly interjected with a smile to lighten the mood: "Father, the little brothers just arrived today; let’s not discuss such gloomy topics. Let’s talk about something cheerful!"
Hearing this, the Wujin Old Man slapped his forehead and laughed: "Look at me! I got so excited that I forgot about the important matters. Come on, try our Wujin Kingdom's specialty dishes!"
With that, he lifted the lids off the bowls in front of us.
To our surprise, inside each bowl was a pool of black liquid emitting a strange aroma.
Xiao Xiao couldn't help but ask, " Wujin Old Man, what is this?"
The Wujin Old Man chuckled and explained: "This is called 'Xuan Can,' a specialty dish from my Wujin Kingdom that has always been reserved for our most esteemed guests. Since you little brothers are visiting today, we must let you try it."
A Meng couldn't resist asking: "'Xuan Can'? I've never heard of it before. What is it made from?"
The Wujin Old Man stroked his beard proudly and said: "'Xuan Can' is a unique delicacy of my Wujin Kingdom; naturally, you haven't heard of it before."
He then enthusiastically began to introduce the origins of this "Xuan Can."
"Xuan Can," as the name suggests, is a food in liquid form that is black in color. It is said to have been created by the founder of Wujin Kingdom, Wujin Ancestor. Back in the day, when Wujin Ancestor led his people to this place and saw that the land was rich with water and grass and fertile soil, he decided to establish a nation here.
At that time, the country was in dire need of revitalization, and the people were suffering. The Wujin Ancestor led everyone to cultivate the land, develop animal husbandry, and encouraged commerce and industry. Within a few years, the nation became prosperous and the people strong.
One year, heavy rain fell for seven consecutive days and nights. A flash flood swept through the Wujin Kingdom, leaving devastation in its wake. The Wujin Ancestor was heartbroken and pondered deeply until he finally came up with a solution.
He built a large reservoir on the highest peak of the Wujin Kingdom to store the spring rainwater. The following year, he gathered skilled craftsmen from across the nation to develop a type of drinkable food that could both satisfy hunger and quench thirst, with a simple production process and easily obtainable ingredients.
This food became known as the original "Xuan Can."
