Chapter 002: Alien Egg
The tavern was not very large, and after a few glances when Fatt entered, there were only six countertops in it, and to his surprise, there was a fine white flannel cloth on the wooden table, and the transparent and shiny cutlery was neatly arranged, not much worse than the one he had seen at Baron Hank's house.
The fat woman had gone nowhere, and there was no one in the empty tavern at this time.
"You wait. Without looking back, the boy threw a word at Fate, and walked straight to the west corner of the tavern. There was a big cauldron there, and the pine resin wood below was burning, crackling and bursting with the smell of grease, and there was a sudden sound in the pot, and the young man walked to the side of the pot and lifted the lid, and suddenly a strange fragrance permeated the air.
Smelling this strange fragrance, Fat's mouth watered, and he pretended to be concerned and ran over, shouting, "Be careful of burning." ”
Running to the pot, Fat saw that the thick soup in the pot was boiling, and some unnamed plants were churning up and down, and with the stirring of the wooden handle spoon in the young man's hand, a huge bone came into Fate's eyes.
"This is the leg bone of the fourth-level demonic beast arrow-haired porcupine, right?" Fate's eyes glowed green, he swallowed desperately, his nose was slightly inciting, and he said strangely: "The meat of the arrow-haired porcupine is rough and sour, how can it be so fragrant." ”
The young man turned around and smiled at him, but didn't speak, grabbed the strange powder from a few bowls next to him and threw it into the pot, and the fragrance instantly became stronger.
"Xiaoshan, hurry up, wait for the guests to come to the door. The fat woman came out of nowhere, walked over to the pot and said, judging by the frequency of her nose and the smile on her face, Fatt felt that she was also intoxicated by the scent.
"Who are you?" The fat woman looked at Fate vigilantly and said, "Begging for food, come back later, the old lady hasn't opened yet, what are you doing here, looking for a fight." ”
Fate was stunned, angry and anxious, and said, "You can see clearly, who is the beggar, I am a noble magician." ”
The fat woman sighed, and she realized that the tattered black robe on Fat's body turned out to be a magic robe, but then she looked disdainful and said, "What about the magician, it's just a black-robed junior magician, and it's useless." ”
Fat's anger almost jumped up, and he began to chant magic spells in his mouth, and white mist gradually floated around his body.
The obscure magic spell of "Ga ......" was only halfway chanted, and Fat's right hand like a fat woman's bear's paw pinched his neck and lifted him into the air, and the water vapor element that had finally condensed dissipated instantly.
Then the young man, known as Xiaoshan, interjected, "Aunt Anna, let him go, Mr. Fatter is my guest." ”
As soon as the fat woman Anna heard this, she let go of Fate's neck and walked towards the door, saying as she walked: "Don't talk about the junior magician, last time the intermediate magician wanted to tease the old lady, and the old lady didn't slap her in the face." ”
Fat's face flushed as he reached out and stroked his thin neck with fingerprints pinched, and when he heard the fat woman's muttering, he shivered and gave up the idea of revenge.
"Xiaoshan, hey, are you the Xiaoshan that the mercenary guild has bounty?" asked Fate, who suddenly remembered something, and squeezed over to the young man's side.
Xiao Shan's face flushed slightly, and he smiled and showed a mouthful of white and neat teeth, and said, "It was a misunderstanding, and Andri, the blacksmith on East Street, just vented the depression in his heart in that way." ”
"Then you're not afraid, are you?"
Xiaoshan said with a smile, "The people of Wind and Fire Town take it as a joke, and no one will take that task." ”
"What is this? I've never seen it before, it smells so good. Fate's stomach began to growl.
"Xiaoshan, the old rule, let's have fifty meat skewers first, remember only beef. "A tall boy shouted at the door of the tavern, his short clothes could not hide his explosive muscles, he carried a huge axe on his shoulder, and his unkempt hair looked like a savage orc.
"What the hell is called. Xiao Shantou didn't raise his head, and said crisply: "Xilu, Anna has been looking for you for a long time, you can settle the last money first." ”
"Siru, I thought you weren't coming. Anna jumped out, gritted her teeth and said: "No one dares not to pay back the money owed to the old lady, last time you ate two hundred meat skewers and slipped away while the old lady was not paying attention, I thought you wouldn't come back!"
Xilu laughed, threw the axe on the ground with a bang, reached into his arms and took out a few shiny crystal nuclei, and said, "Boss, do you think these are enough?"
One is a second-level flame snake magic crystal, and two are a third-level wind wolf.
Fatden's eyes lit up, and he glanced at the Siru for a few moments, but he didn't believe that he had hunted the beast. If you want to hunt the magic crystal of the third-level wind wolf, you need at least an intermediate warrior, and seeing that Xilu is no more than seventeen or eighteen years old, Fate naturally doesn't believe it.
A moment ago, Anna still had a hideous face, but when she turned into a smile, she swept in front of Xilu at a speed that was extremely inconsistent with her figure, and rolled a few magic crystals into her hands with one stretch of her hand.
"Xilu, I said a long time ago that you are the most powerful among the young people of our Wind and Fire Town, and you will definitely become the greatest warrior in the future. ”
Xilu was very happy to hear this, sat down on a chair, and said, "Aunt Anna, these magic crystals were obtained by me by myself, at least I can eat fifty meals here, right?"
"Thirty tons. The magic crystal was put into her arms, and Anna immediately turned her face.
"Forty tons. Xilu was anxious and stood up.
"Thirty-five meals, absolutely no more, hell, your appetite is bigger than a violent bear. Anna breathed a sigh of relief.
"Deal. Xilu smiled and ran to Fate's side like a nobody, and said, "Xiaoshan, did you hear it, the proprietress said, then give me a hundred skewers of beef first." ”
Koyama glanced at him, grabbed a large handful of meat skewers from bamboo skewers and threw them into the pot. Only then did Fate see a row of bamboo baskets placed next to the pot, which were filled with all kinds of meat and vegetables, all skewered together with bamboo skewers, red, green, and green were very beautiful.
"You're running to the Falling Moon Mountains again?"
Xilu scratched his head and said, "What's the way to go, you have to eat." As he spoke, he mysteriously leaned in front of the hill and whispered, "According to the method you taught, I set up a few traps on the edge of the Falling Moon Mountain Range ten miles away from the town, and waited for a day and a night, and finally caught a small adventure team. Stun them with the powder you gave me, and after snatching the magic crystal, I quickly ran back. ”
Fatden was sweating profusely, and when he saw Siru glaring at him, he looked into the pot with interest, pretending not to hear anything.
"What's so expensive to eat, those magic crystals together can be sold for at least a few gold coins. Fatt muttered to himself, he thought the big man was a little silly.
"Why don't you let me snatch their weapons and armor?" Siru frowned, "I can sell them for more money that way." ”
"Call you stupid, you're stupid. Xiaoshan scolded: "Wind and Fire Town is a big place, no matter who you sell it to, it will always be discovered, if those mercenary adventurers have a relationship with those people in the town, then it will be a big trouble." ”
"No wonder you asked me to cover my face when I robbed. Siru suddenly realized.
"Asking you to cover your face is just for show, and you think they won't recognize you with your unique size. They are afraid of your dad and the old guys in town, and as long as you don't show your face, they say that no matter how much you look like that, there is no real evidence, who can do anything with you?"
Xilu smiled and said, "Xiaoshan, I don't understand what you say, but I believe you." ”
Fate's eyes looked at the churning meat skewers in the pot, and he said to himself, "Is this still a teenager?"
"Alright. Xiaoshan took out dozens of meat skewers and handed them to Xilu, saying, "Chili powder or something is on the table, brush it yourself as much as you want." ”
Xilu didn't care about talking, and he wasn't afraid of being hot, so he stretched out his mouth and stroked four strings, chewing and walking away.
"Mr. Fate, these are for you first, there are many more over there, you can see what you want to eat, just bring them. Xiaoshan smiled and handed Fatt a few skewers.
Fa Jie nodded, and he didn't dare to open his mouth, he was afraid that a surging saliva would come out. He stepped aside and took a bite, and a strange fragrance that he had never tasted before bloomed on his tongue.
"It's delicious, it's delicious. Fatt muttered, eager to swallow his tongue.
At this time, the number of customers in the tavern also increased, most of them were for the unique meat skewers of Koyama, and some of them ordered colorful vegetable skewers, but very few.
One silver coin is only fifty strings!
Fatt watched while eating, secretly sighing in his heart, he didn't want money anyway, he cheekily ran over and asked for a few skewers, and it tasted delicious.
Anna is only responsible for collecting money, Le's eyebrows are smiling, Xiaoshan has been standing on the stool by the pot and is busy, fine sweat particles are all over his forehead, and he doesn't see him crying tired after being busy for a long time.
Slowly, there were fewer people, only Xilu was still sitting at the table and eating, with a large pile of bamboo sticks in front of him, brushing some red powder on the meat pieces with a brush from time to time, and eating sweating profusely.
When Fate saw it, he felt a fever in his mouth, and just now he also tried the powder called "chili", and his mouth seemed to be on fire, and he almost didn't squirt it out.
"Mr. Fat, have you eaten enough?" Xiaoshan walked over to Fat, wiping his sweat, his face flushed with steam.
"Thank you. With a grateful face, Fate hurriedly stood up and said, "I've never eaten such delicious food, what's the name?"
"Malatang. Xiaoshan said a term that Fatt had never heard before, and said, "Come with me, I have something I want to ask you." ”
"As you wish. Fate followed him to the backyard.
Seeing that there was no one left and right, Xiaoshan closed the back door and said, "What do you see here?"
Before he could make any movements, a half-leg-high egg-like object appeared in the clearing, with a piece of sticky silk on it, like the egg of a demonic beast.
"He has a space ring?"
Fate was shocked, but he didn't see any jewelry on Xiaoshan's fingers, and his eyes were attracted by the monster eggs.
"Hurry up and see, have you seen it?" Xiao Shan's expression was very nervous, and his hands clenched involuntarily.
"Well, this must be a monster egg, and I can't tell what it is. Fate groaned, "But looking at the surface is so sticky, it should be about to hatch." ”
As he spoke, the top of the egg squirmed slightly, and the top layer began to split into four petals, slowly turning down in all directions.
Fatt was suddenly a little nervous, and a little frightened, he couldn't figure out how he could feel this way, it stands to reason that newborn demonic beasts are not aggressive.
"Just look at it and you'll know what kind of monster it is. Fateh involuntarily took a few steps back.
"Hey. Xiao Shan sighed, and the beast disappeared into thin air.
"This is an alien egg, trust me, you'll regret it if you see what it looks like. Xiaoshan said in his heart.
