Chapter 70: The Girl Back Then

"Okay, please wait." McGonagall nodded, turned and walked towards the kitchen, Amy's answer was quite satisfactory to him, at least the little girl didn't hear anyone talk about magic and immediately agreed, but it seemed that the magician had not given up, and was still a little wary in his heart.

"Grandpa Whitebeard, where are you from?" Amy was sure that Crassus was not here to sell matches, and that she had money on her, so she was in no hurry to let him go, and asked with some curiosity.

"My name is Crassus Io, and I came from Luodu, the capital of the Los Empire, and I walked for half a year to reach the City of Chaos, which is a big city more than ten times larger than the City of Chaos." Crassus said with a smile, trying to make his voice and expression as kind as possible.

If the people who worship the tower were to see that Lord Crassus, who was usually unsmiling and even a little stereotypical, was talking to a little girl so kindly, they would be surprised and speechless.

McGonagall, who had just reached the kitchen door, suddenly stopped and couldn't help but clench her fists.

Half of the powerful human mages are in the capital of the Los Empire, and the most powerful of them are enshrined in the palace's thirty-six-story glorious mage tower, which is revered by the royal family, so the tower is also called the Tower of Worship.

Among the three magicians who attacked him back then, two of them came from the Offering Tower, indicating that this matter was acquiesced by the royal family, at least some people in the royal family had instructed it.

Although after that incident, the imperial military was shaken, and the king ordered the mage tower to be rectified, and grabbed two small shrimps from the royal family and threw them out as scapegoats to suppress the matter.

And Crassus's name, McGonagall found in the memory of his predecessor, he is one of the magicians worshiped by the imperial royal family, it is said that he is more than one hundred and twenty years old, withdrawn, somewhat mysterious, basically does not step out of the mage tower half a step, even if there are any major events in the Los Empire, he never participates, even the king can't do anything about him.

As a knight, McGonagall was a little disdainful of magicians, let alone Crassus, but until now, he didn't know if the incident was the result of a discussion among all the magicians in the mage tower, or if the two magicians were instructed separately.

But no matter what, McGonagall had to keep Emily, Crassus, far away, the water in the worship tower was too deep, and Crassus, as one of the oldest magicians among them, must have heard of that incident back then, and his eyesight must not be taken lightly.

And seeing that he is now seducing Amy here step by step, trying to make her interested in Luodu, it makes him a little uneasy, he will definitely not allow Amy to leave his side, let alone let her go to the twilight mage tower in Luodu.

With a decision in mind, McGonagall went straight into the kitchen and began to process the ingredients to make Yangzhou fried rice.

"Have you been gone for half a year?" Amy tilted her head and thought seriously for a moment.

Just when Crassus thought she would look forward to asking Luo Du what interesting things were there, Amy sighed, looked at Crassus and said with some seriousness: "Grandpa Whitebeard, you are so old, you have walked for more than half a year on such a small road, how good it is to stay at home, if you fall on the road, others will have to help you transport it back, so much trouble." ”

Crassus felt that he choked on his breath, and almost didn't catch his breath, if Lodu went to the city of chaos to take a carriage, he would travel every day, and he would be there in almost twenty days.

But the purpose of his journey was to find a good seedling, so he spared a lot of long journeys and went to many places along the way, but he didn't expect that Amy's place would become the best evidence that half of his leg had been buried in the soil.

"Actually, I'm going to do more magic......" Crassus tried to calm his mind a bit, trying to use magic to get Amy's attention again.

"Ugly duckling, do you want to see it?" Amy asked, looking down at the ugly duckling.

The ugly duckling glanced at Crassus and shook his head.

"I don't want to watch it either." Amy shrugged as well.

"......" Crassus felt for the first time that the child was not as easy to deceive as he imagined, or that this half-elf girl was more difficult to deal with than she imagined.

Just as Crassus was pondering how to get Amy interested in him, McGonagall came out with a Yangzhou fried rice, gently placed it in front of him, and smiled, "Your Yangzhou fried rice." ”

"What is this?" Crassus looked at the brightly colored fried rice in front of him, and his eyes suddenly lit up, just like Amy said, the colors like a rainbow, chopped and fried into a plate, wrapped in golden eggs, and various ingredients the size of rice grains cut out by exquisite knife work, actually formed such a plate of delicate and beautiful food.

The unique aroma of eggs and various ingredients mixed together made him swallow his saliva, such a rich fragrance was more tempting than those chefs in the palace, and made Crassus, who had no appetite for many years, have an urge to taste it.

He reached out and picked up the spoon, scooped a spoonful from the middle and fed it to his mouth, the egg wrapped in the rice was so fragrant and tender, the salty gravy of the ham after biting into it overflowed, and the flavors of various ingredients blended together, the deliciousness made him feel that the taste buds that had been dormant for a long time seemed to be reborn, nourished in the deliciousness, and re-experienced what it was like to be delicious.

"It's!" However, when he took a bite of the rice wrapped in the egg, Crassus opened his eyes suddenly, the rice was exceptionally sweet and refreshing, and with a comfortable breath, nourishing every flesh and blood in his body along his throat.

It was this familiar breath that surprised and puzzled him, the taste of this fountain of life!

The holy spring of the elf clan, when an interesting elven girl came to visit him, she brought him a small jar of the fountain of life, the smell made him remember deeply, and it was also the most important reason why he continued to live all these years.

That thing, even if it was him, he had only tasted it three times in his life, and two times it was the benefit of being a royal enshrinement, but it was a pity that that girl, what a good girl, met the wrong person.

Moreover, how did the taste of the fountain of life in this Yangzhou fried rice come about? Could it be that this boss poured the fountain of life into it and cooked it together when he was cooking? Even if it's just a drop, it's a terrible thing.

Crassus's hand paused for a moment, but soon he couldn't help but scoop up a spoonful and feed it to his mouth, feeling the sensation of the delicious spreading in his mouth, what fountain of life, what memories and troubles, and the unsuccessful collection of apprentices, all these things were left behind by him, this taste, people can temporarily let go of everything.
