Afternoon.

The red lantern was hung high, and the gilt plaque had a dragon flying and a phoenix dancing with big characters:

Jin Wei Restaurant.

Luo He shouldered the nine-section wolf, stood in front of a Sichuan-style restaurant and looked up, silent for a long time.

immediately took out his mobile phone, glanced at the address given by Li Wanqing, and looked up to confirm the plaque.

That's right, this is it.

Fu Ming, a fire expert, is the location of the "Huowei Dojo"!

Luo He and Xiao Jiu glanced at each other, then looked up at the plaque, and muttered:

"But isn't this really a hot pot restaurant?"

"Huh!" Xiao Jiu immediately gave advice.

It's all here, why don't you go in and eat a little before you go!

Luo He rubbed Xiao Jiu's forehead, handed it a piece of glazed snake fruit, and said:

"Don't worry, it's better to inquire about the dojo first."

"Huh~" The nine-section wolf's eyes were bright and he gnawed on the snake fruit.

"Hello, do you have an appointment?" The hostess in a cheongsam walked out of the store and asked politely.

"I want to visit Mr. Fu Ming's Huowei Dojo." Luo He explained the meaning.

The so-called "dojo", similar to the martial arts hall in the trainer world, is an official institution for training and assessing the strength of trainers.

You must be an officially certified expert or above trainer to be eligible to open a dojo.

The internal program of the dojo is mainly to recruit apprentices, and a part of the tuition fee is charged while teaching them.

The external project is to accept the kicking challenge from the trainer, and the purpose is to "train and train Donghuang trainers".

The "Kick Challenge" is always free, but the dojo owner usually sends an apprentice to compete with the challenger first.

After the dojo owner recognizes the strength of the challenger, or the apprentice successfully completes the apprenticeship, he will teach the treasured pet beast moves and give tokens as a reward.

The serious path of a trainer is often only from the dojo and from the academy, which are two.

But... Luo He said in his heart... This Huowei Dojo, is it really serious?

"So you're here to challenge the gym."

Miss Manners suddenly smiled and said, "Please come with me." ”

Under her leadership, Luo He passed through a bamboo forest stone path from the side of the restaurant, and his vision suddenly opened up, and a dojo surrounded by red lanterns and bluestones appeared in front of him.

"Why is there a hot pot restaurant on the outside and a dojo on the inside, and even the house number is the same?" Luo He asked the question that had been suppressed for a long time.

"It was Mr. Dojo Master's idea."

Miss Manners said: "He is a breeder, he has a good study of spicy, and there is just a vacant space, so he converted the front yard into a restaurant, which is regarded as a side business." ”

"Your dojo master, is he short of money?" Luo He was a little strange.

It stands to reason that an expert-level trainer will not need an entire side hustle.

"There is no shortage." Miss Etiquette saw Luo He's kind face, so she raised her mouth twice, and said: "Opening a hot pot restaurant may be the interest of the dojo owner, or it may simply be that he loves chili peppers too much." ”

Luo He was thoughtful.

If only he just loved good food.

I can exchange ideas with him and improve each other's cooking and breeding skills.

……

Fire Wai Dojo, Backroom.

The red oil hot pot 'grunt', filling the nose with a pungent aroma, and the red peppers and inconspicuous peppercorns are surging in the pot.

A middle-aged man with a good bearing, dressed in a capable gray warrior suit, sat on a bench, facing a table of rich ingredients and a steaming copper hot pot, and slowly raised his chopsticks.

On the wall behind him, a large calligraphy word was written: Fire.

There was a knock on the door, and the middle-aged man put down his long chopsticks, got up and went to open the door, revealing another word that was blocked by his body just now: pot.

Fu Ming opened the door, saw his beloved apprentice, and said:

"Qian Wang, you came just in time, let's eat some with me."

Qian Wang is the senior brother of the Huowei Dojo, a square-faced man with a calm demeanor.

Hearing the master's invitation to 'try the dishes', Qian Wang's calm face changed, he looked behind Fu Ming, his tone was a little nervous, and said:

"Master, you're experimenting with new dishes again?"

"It's readjusting the proportion of chili peppers in the hot pot base."

Fu Ming said lightly: "Purgatory Dog and Nine-Section Wolf, I'm a little tired of eating the previous hot pot, so I'm going to remix a new hot pot base." ”

Hot pot base, according to the ratio of oil to water and chili pepper, the taste can reach hundreds of thousands.

As a breeder, Fu Ming has a deep research on the spiritual pepper that contains fire energy.

I often use all kinds of chili peppers to mix hot pot bases, and wait until the tasting is completed, and then hand them over to pet beasts to eat.

This made it bitter for the students who tried the dishes for him, as well as the pet beasts of the students.

Although the spicy hot pot made by the master is delicious, his own fire-based pet beasts can always be improved.

But every time Qian Wang and the master eat hot pot together, the day after they finish eating hot pot, there will always be a hot pain in a certain unspeakable part.

As a result, the senior brother of the Huowei Dojo, the most desired thing at the moment is to leave the teacher as soon as possible.

Or come to a little junior brother again, experience with yourself, and give the master the pain of 'trying dishes'!

"Ahem, master, we don't have time to try dishes for the time being."

Qian Wang coughed dryly: "I came to report to you, there is a challenger outside the door, saying that he is here to ask you for high-level moves." ”

Fu Ming's heart moved, and he said, "What is the name of that challenger?" ”

"Luo He." Qian Wangdao: "It seems that I made a special trip from Yunling." ”

Fu Ming thought for a while, bowed slightly, and said:

"I've got to see him."

Qian Wang was stunned for a moment and said, "Master, he is just a trainee-level trainer, there is no need for you to see him in person, right?" ”

"He's a newcomer recommended by a master, and the master has already greeted me in advance." Fu Ming explained.

Qian Wang was thoughtful, but saw that the master patted him on the shoulder, and said with a smile:

"Qian Wang, have you eaten?"

It was only four o'clock in the afternoon, and Qian Wang subconsciously replied that he hadn't eaten, and when he reacted suddenly, his face had turned pale.

It's over, it's time to try the dishes!

"It's good if you haven't eaten it."

Fu Ming said with a smile: "The new flavor of hot pot I just made, you can't waste it, you taste two bites for me and record your experience." Remember, the experience has to be profound, understand? ”

Qian Wang looked at the steaming red oil hot pot, thinking of the scene of getting up tomorrow, he couldn't help himself, and nodded sadly:

"Thank you, master!"

"What are you polite to me?"

Fu Ming patted Qian Wang's shoulder with a smile and walked out of the backroom with his hands in his hands.

Qian Wang was left alone in the wind, and a song "Chrysanthemums are broken, full of wounds" faintly echoed in his ears, looking at the sky melancholy, and muttered:

"I hope that challenger can be my junior brother."

"In this way, it won't be my turn to try the dishes......"

*

Huowei Dojo, a training ground.

Fu Ming stood in the center of the venue, shook hands with Luo He, and said:

"I've been looking up for a long time, Luo He Xiaoyou."

"You're so polite." Luo He Dao.

The two exchanged their usual courtesies, and at the same time, students continued to sit around the venue.

Hearing that a challenger had come to the door, the students sat in a circle and looked at the uninvited guest.

The male student looked vigilant and whispered:

"He actually let the master come and greet him personally."

"What's the matter?"

"What are you afraid of, no matter how strong you are, you can't compare to Senior Brother."

On the other side, the female student looked bright and whispered.

"It's more handsome than our dojo."

"Do you think he will become a junior brother?"

The sound was not loud, but it fell into the ears of the male student next to him.

In the stadium, it was suddenly filled with a competitive atmosphere.

Fu Ming sensed this atmosphere, and knew that this was a very normal thing for adolescent teenagers.

Instead of suppressing your nature, it is better to pull it out generously and have two fights.

I can also take this opportunity to observe Luo He's overall strength and make targeted teaching arrangements.

"Luo He." Fu Ming opened his mouth and said, "You came from afar, I should have arranged for you to stay and rest for one night." ”

Luo He was stared at from all sides, and he knew what this group of teenagers thought, but he didn't take the initiative to mention it, so he had to wait for Fu Ming to speak.

"Still." Fu Ming said: "Since you have already arrived, it is better to learn from my students first, so that everyone can see your strength." ”

"No problem." Luo He readily agreed.

The atmosphere in the dojo suddenly became enthusiastic, and several students who were self-confident and powerful couldn't help but perform on stage.

Fu Ming was infected by this youthful atmosphere, and said with a smile:

"If I'm not mistaken, your nine-section wolf is awakened to the ninth level?"

This was mentioned by Li Wanqing and Fu Ming at that time, about Luo He's strength.

"It's the tenth level of awakening." Luo He Dao.

Fu Ming nodded slightly, and sighed lightly in his heart.

It was only three days since Master Li mentioned it to me.

The strength has improved so quickly, which is a bit unexpected to Fu Ming.

"Master, I'll come first."

A sturdy young man Mao Sui recommended himself, glanced at Luo He, and said, "My Flame Tooth Dog is Awakening Level 9, but the race level is higher than that of the Nine Sections Wolf, no problem, right?" ”

Luo He nodded, and communicated with Xiao Jiu through the pet beast space: "Everyone is a novice, behave well." ”

"Win and eat." Luo He Dao.

In the pet beast space, Xiao Jiu's burning fighting spirit was heard.

"Huh!! (艹)"

No one wants to stop me from cooking!
