Mid-Autumn Festival Special - Mooncake Battle (Part II)
"Thankfully! Finally in time for the Mid-Autumn Festival! I've managed to summon someone! ”
"Haha, I'm really good!" Dahl said as he suddenly rushed over and reached out to grab Tong Xi's right hand.
"You are now the hope of the people of the whole continent! You must defeat the Great Demon King of Xi'er and get the mooncake recipe! Save the people of the whole continent who are in the panic of 'no moon cakes to eat'! Odin I said excitedly.
"Uh...... I want to go back......" Tong Xi's eyes swept to the side and muttered to himself.
Suddenly, his eyes swept over the six-pointed star magic array below, and Tong Xi's eyes lit up, as if he had thought of something.
"That, Your Majesty! May I ask you a question? Tong Xi said with a smile.
"Ask! Just ask! Dahl said, patting his chest.
"I'll help you defeat the Great Demon King of Xi'er and get the mooncake recipe, so how can you send me back? After all, I want to make sure I can go back so that I can take on the challenge without worries, don't I? Tong Xi smiled.
"It's easy!" Dahl pointed to the six-pointed star magic array below.
"I drew this magic array using fixed magic materials, not a one-time teleportation magic array, as long as you defeat the Great Demon King of Xi'er, then I will activate this magic array again and send you back!" Dahl swore by it.
"So how did you get started? As far as I know, Dahl, you are not a magician. Tong Xi had a curious baby's expression.
"It's easy! I'm not a magician, but I have this! Dahl finished and pulled out a crystal ball.
"This is an energy storage crystal, which contains the magic power infused by the magic guild leader, just now summoned you to use part of it, and the rest can be activated again by this magic array."
"Can you show me?" Tong Xi smiled.
"Of course." Dahl handed it over.
"Is this going to the central groove?" Tong Xi pointed to the hemispherical depression under his feet.
"That's right! Well? Difficulty...... Dahl just finished speaking, and immediately felt that something was wrong, only to see that Tong Xi in the distance had already bent down and was about to put the crystal ball into it......
Dahl jumped and pounced on the hemispherical depression accurately, blocking the hole with his own body, and then hugged Tong Xi's right leg with both hands.
"Don't...... I think you look so cute, you must be kind-hearted, righteous and upright people! I can't bear to see that we don't have mooncakes to eat! Dahl changed his previous serious appearance and said with a handful of snot and tears.
"Uh...... You let go! Tong Xi moved his right foot, which was tightly caught, of course, there was no way to pull it out.
"I won't let go, I won't let go! Don't let it go! Brave man, you can't just leave! If you leave like this......"
"What if you leave like this?" Tong Xi asked.
"How will this story continue if you leave like this!" Dahl hugged Tong Xi's right foot and looked up at Tong Xi and said.
"Uh...... You let it go...... I promise you can't do it? Tong Xi said helplessly.
"Great! I knew that a lovely girl like you must be kind-hearted, righteous and upright! ”
"Blue and white bars! It's so cute! It's perfect for you. Dahl suddenly said something inexplicable.
"Huh?" Tong Xi looked down at Dahl, who was still lying on the ground, suspiciously, and found that Dahl's gaze from the bottom up......
……
"Lord Brave, since the Great Demon King of Xi'er asked for a 'fair one-on-one duel', it is inconvenient for us to send you. You push open the door, and you're inside. "Outside a large mansion, Odin VII, His Majesty Dahl has a small red shoe print on his face.
"Come on, Lord Brave!" A large group of subjects shouted behind him.
"What is that red mark on His Majesty's face? Magic Mark? "I don't know, the difficulty is the latest popular decoration?" The people below whispered......
Tong Xi waved his hand to the people behind him, pushed the door and walked into the mansion of the "Xi'er Great Demon King".
Pushing the door in, at the end directly opposite the doorway, a familiar figure was leaning back on a large chair......
"Huh? Ciel? Is it really you? Tong Xi looked at the familiar person in front of him.
"Humph! I've been waiting for you for a long time! I didn't expect those guys to actually be able to summon a person...... But don't think I'm going to let you get close to me! Ciel snorted and walked slowly.
looked Tong Xi in front of him up and down, and it seemed that he should be measuring Tong Xi's height with his line of sight.
"Humph! A guy like you, I guess I haven't even quit milk, and of course it's impossible for me to win. Ciel smirked, and seemed very happy that the challenger was a child.
"But Miss Ben values every opponent and will give you a fair chance to challenge!"
"For the sake of fairness, I'll give half of the challenge, you make half of it, and then form a challenge project!"
"My first half of the topic is ...... Let's race to make food! As for what to eat, it's up to you to decide! What do you think? Fair enough, right? Ciel smirked.
Tong Xi looked at Xi'er in front of her, although the Xi'er she knew definitely couldn't cook, and it would be good if she didn't fry the kitchen, but the Xi'er in front of her was a well-known "moon cake master" in the whole continent, and it was estimated that there would be no problem in dealing with food people all year round.
On the other hand, she is Tong Xi! I haven't eaten anything in my life! Oh...... I seem to have made a kind of food......
Tong Xi seemed to remember something, and suddenly his eyes lit up.
"Good! It's decided! Let's have a competition to cook instant noodles! Tong Xi smiled.
"Instant noodles? Boy! Can you use such a simple project to bridge the gap between you and me?! Ciel reacted instantly.
"It's useless! I'll let you know that even instant noodles can be cooked differently by different people! Ciel smirked.
Since Xi'er has been preparing for a cooking competition for a long time, of course she has prepared the competition venue.
In the open space, two stoves have been assumed for a long time, and the table next to it has all kinds of materials.
"So, it's okay to play for ten minutes, right?" Hill set the alarm clock in the middle of the venue.
"Well, Tong Xi nodded."
The game starts right away.
Tong Xi directly added water to the small pot, and then lit the fire directly, although she had never entered the kitchen, she would still use this simple magic stove.
Then I took a pack of "Master Chen" instant noodles on the table, opened it, and everything was ready......
Boiled instant noodles...... Just wait until the water boils, and then pour in the noodles and spices......
After Tong Xi, who was busy with all this, found that there was nothing to do, he turned his head to look in the direction of Xi'er on the other side.
I found out that Ciel was actually using a knife to quickly shred a carrot!
On the side, there are also a lot of spare ingredients such as vegetables, minced meat, and eggs on a small plate!
And looking at Xi'er's skilled knife work and the large pile of materials, Tong Xi turned his head to look at the large pile of vegetables and meat on his table that had not been touched......
Tong Xi took out a bottle of spices from his storage space......
"Hehe......" Tong Xi smiled and poured some powder from the bottle into the boiling water in the pot.
"Huh?" Tong Xi's deliberately amplified laughter certainly reached Xi'er's ears......
"What is this?" Ciel leaned over and asked.
It didn't seem to be aware that Xi'er suddenly came over, and Tong Xi hid the bottle behind him in a panic.
"I didn't ...... It's nothing...... It's just ordinary...... Oh! Ordinary salt! Even if you add it, it won't be delicious! Tong Xi turned her hands behind her back and held the bottle, but her height, which was already more than Xi'er's head, couldn't stop Xi'er's sight at all......
"Ordinary salt?" Ciel looked incredulous.
"If you believe you, you'll have a ghost!" Xi'er snatched the bottle that Tong Xi was hiding behind her.
"Huh! How do you do that? Grab something! Tong Xi seemed to be anxious to snatch it back, and even wanted to get it with both hands, but Xi'er was originally a cut taller than her, and at this time, she couldn't reach the bottle that Xi'er was holding high......
"Ann Ann Ann Blah...... I'll give it back to you when I'm done......" Xi'er walked back to her table with a smug face, but she didn't notice that when she turned around, Tong Xi secretly replaced the pot of water......
"What is this?" Xi'er also asked vigilantly with her nose, "Ahh
"Why does it taste so rushed?!" Ciel rubbed her nose.
"But there's definitely something wrong with her being so sneaky...... Maybe it's a potion that can make people hallucinate and mistakenly think that the food is delicious...... After all, she's from another plane, and it's not strange to have something like this......" Ciel muttered to herself.
"She seems to have added a little bit of ...... just now," Xi'er struggled to remember Tong Xi's actions just now, and then poured a little bit of the red powder in the bottle herself.
"As much as she adds, I add as much as I want, so that whatever it is, won't the advantage built by this bottle come back to square one again?"
"Hah! I'm so smart! ”
"Huh? Why is this soup red? ”
"Cier!" Tong Xi suddenly opened his mouth and stopped Xi'er, who was thinking seriously.
"What's the matter? Don't think that's going to distract me by disturbing me! Ciel didn't look back.
"It's not! I want to ask, why is there no referee! If there is no referee, how can we divide the winner from the loser?! Tong Xi asked.
"Referee? If you let someone else be the referee, even if you didn't do anything, you will definitely say that you did a good job! Everyone else expects me to lose! It's so unfair to me! Ciel said.
"After you and I finish it, exchange and eat each other's works, and then the scoring is over?" Ciel said.
"Then I deliberately said that yours was unpalatable?" Tong Xi asked.
"This doesn't work, that doesn't work, so what do you say?" Ciel finally stopped what she was doing and said impatiently.
"Why don't we eat our own?" Tong Xi proposed.
"Humph! I thought you could have any good advice to eat your own? So what if you insist on saying that you are delicious? At most, it can only be considered a draw? Ciel yelled dissatisfied.
"Humph! Something like you is going to be hard to eat! If you finish eating what you make yourself, you win! Tong Xi's face was full of disdain.
"If you eat what you make, you win? Hum! Of course there is no problem with what I made! As soon as Ciel finished speaking, the alarm clock on the side rang, and the game time was over.
The two sides brought their boiled instant noodles to the central table.
"Huh? Why isn't this soup of yours red? I saw you added that seasoning too! Ciel asked.
"Humph! If you put your mind to it, you can change the taste of your food and of course the color of your food! You don't know this kind of advanced cooking skills! Tong Xi smiled.
As for the results......
Of course, Xi'er couldn't finish her bowl of instant noodles filled with Tong Xi's bottle of "condensed" chili powder......
Tong Xi, who successfully defeated the Great Demon King of Xi'er and obtained the moon cake recipe, walked to the teleportation magic array and set foot on the way home under the send-off of Odin VII and a large number of people.
"Stay, right? At least eat mooncakes and look at the moon here before going back? Odin VII pointed to the bright moon in the sky, and the moon that radiated a bright white light hung quietly in the night sky, round and beautiful.
"How? The moon on our side isn't bad, is it? Odin VII suggested.
"No, goodbye." Tong Xi shook his head and stepped into the magic array.
The dazzling white light lit up, Tong Xi blinked again, and what appeared in front of him was the face of Rare's father.
At this time, Tong Xi was lying in the arms of Rare's father.
"You naughty wretch, is wine for a child like you? See! Get drunk! Father Riel said as he reached out and hung Tong Xi's nose.
"I'm not drunk!" Tong Xi was dissatisfied.
"That's what all drunkards say." Father Riel laughed.
"Really not drunk! I just went somewhere else! Tong Xi said.
"Somewhere else? Where? Dad Riel asked very cooperatively.
In the cherry blossom courtyard of this prince's mansion, he quietly hugged his daughter like this, and the two of them chatted quietly, with a feeling that made him very comfortable.
"It's another world, and the moon is beautiful! Not worse than we have here at all! The people over there even invited me to eat mooncakes together! Tong Xi said and pointed to the bright moon in the sky.
"Really? So why didn't Xiaoxi accept the invitation of those people? Father Riel laughed.
Father Riel seemed to pay too much attention to what Tong Xi said, and Tong Xi pinched his nose......
"Because there's a stupid dad waiting for me here!"
