"See you for the first time?" said the rice ball blinked at the old man.

The old man's face was slightly red, "Ahem, yes." I'm afraid it's hard to find a second one for this kind of ingredient in the world, so the old man has a reluctant request, hoping that you can fulfill it. ”

The rice ball immediately snatched the fish from the old man's hand and looked at the old man vigilantly, for fear that the old man would ask for what she wanted. The old man smiled awkwardly, he really wanted to ask for a copy, but looking at the appearance of the rice balls, he also knew that it might not be easy to get it. Then he said: "Don't hide, although the old man is not a big man in the open, he will not rob a little girl." ”

Hearing the old man say this, Fantuan exhaled with relief, "Then what do you want to do?"

"The old man hopes that if you want to cook these ingredients one day, you can let the old man taste them, and it is best to help you cook these ingredients together. ”

Before the rice ball could answer, Lu Lu stopped doing it first, "Do you want to cheat and eat and drink? How can there be such a good thing, this is agreed to eat and drink for nothing, and it is not ashamed." ”

When Lu Lu said this, the old man's face turned red, indeed, he was also a little embarrassed to say such things. But these ingredients are too attractive for him. So he can only ignore his old face, you must know how much temptation it takes for him to say this with his current status. So in the face of Lu Lu's accusation, he was not only not a little angry, but felt very reasonable, not to mention that he was afraid of Lu Lu's words, and he also thought so about rice balls, so he immediately added: "No, old man, I don't eat these things for nothing." As he spoke, he took off an orange ring from his little finger and handed it to the rice ball.

Seeing the old man's actions, Fantuan immediately jumped back in fright, and hurriedly waved his hand and said, "It's good to ask you to eat when the time comes, don't give me money, I don't want it." ”

The old man didn't care what the rice ball said, stuffed the ring into her hand and said: "Old man, I won't eat your things in vain, and this ring is also useful for you, this is a storage ring with a preservation function, different from the general storage ring, it has a single hundred grids in it, although each grid is not big, but for our chefs, with this kind of ring, it is much stronger than the regular storage ring, it can not only ensure the freshness of the food, but also ensure that there will be no flavor." ”

Hearing the old man's explanation, how could it be possible for the rice ball to say that it was not tempting, so he said to the old man that for a chef, this ring is exactly what is needed the most! The rice ball looked at the ring, although her eyes were shining, but she still pushed it back to the old man: "Old man, I can't ask for this, it's too precious." I'll definitely call you when I make these dishes, but I'm afraid you'll have to wait, and I'm going to make them when I find a master. ”

"Find your master?"

Onigiri nodded heavily, "Well, Master said that as long as I win the championship of the Chef God Competition, he will come to me." ”

Looking at the appearance of the rice ball, there was a hint of approval in the old man's eyes: "You are going to participate in the Chef God Competition?"

"Hmm. ”

"Then I'll lend you this ring first, I'm also going to the Chef God Competition, and after you win the championship, find your master, call the old man when you make these ingredients, and then return the ring to me." With this ring, it will be much more convenient for you along the way. After speaking, he didn't wait for the rice ball to refuse again, and walked away.

"Don't go, I don't want to!" Onigiri shouted after him, but the old man disappeared into thin air, and suddenly disappeared in front of the eyes of the three of them.

Xiaoba touched the head of the rice ball and said, "You can take it, according to what he meant just now, I'm afraid we will also participate in the Chef God Contest together." ”

"Hmm. ”

......

Two days later.

Fantuan stretched out his hand and pointed to the city gate, shouting loudly, "Let's go!" The three of them walked like the city gate talking and laughing, and walked southwest for four or five days to get to Longde City, so the three of them didn't plan to take any means of transportation, with Xiaoba's words, how good it is to travel all the way, and get in touch with nature, not only can you relax well, but also may add some inspiration to Fantuan, so as to create a few more delicious new dishes. It's just that after Lu Lu listened to these words, he said two words: "Pick the door." ”

Pick the door, just pick the door, Hachi doesn't care, anyway, he can't count how many times he has been said. Originally, Xiaoba thought about taking something out of the training base to sell, so he didn't have to be so poor. However, Light and Darkness told themselves that they could not use any resources without permission unless they completely controlled the entire fifth-floor base. So Hachi also said that he was very helpless, and in the end, he couldn't get angry, so he looted the loot that the light and darkness had accumulated over the years, but those were also brought in by the outside world.

The three of them didn't go far, and suddenly a carriage rushed out of the intersection behind them and drove in the direction of the three people, Xiao Bayi stretched out his hand to protect the rice ball and Lulu, signaled the two to the side, and made room for the carriage to pass over, but the carriage ignored the three of them as nothing, and rushed straight over, without the slightest intention of slowing down and avoiding.

Xiaoba frowned, and then pulled the rice ball and Lulu to the side, after all, no one wants to cause trouble when they are out. But who expected that the carriage seemed to be aimed at them, not only did Xiaoba get angry, but the rice balls behind him couldn't bear it anymore. Reaching out and slamming Hachi's arm away, he took out his own cauldron and rushed forward.

Just as the rice balls rushed over, a wall of ice two meters high, two meters wide, and one meter thick suddenly emerged from the ground in front of the carriage. When the rice ball saw the appearance of the ice wall, he immediately stopped rushing forward, but it was easy for people to stop, and it was difficult for the galloping carriage to brake suddenly, not to mention that the ice wall appeared in front of the horse body. The ending can be imagined, although the two horses pulling the cart tried their best to restrain their footsteps, but the carriage behind them directly hit the two horses in front of them because of inertia.

After the impact, some cracks appeared on the ice wall, and you can imagine how strong the impact was just now. And with such a huge impact, the main body of the carriage was not damaged in the slightest, but it was pitiful for the two batches of horses pulling the cart, which had already deflated at this time.

An angry roar came from the carriage: "Who is it, are you looking for death, dare to stand in my way!" I saw a man wearing a dark green mage robe walking out of the carriage, the man was very handsome, with long black silk shawl hair, at this time because of his anger fluttering, so that the originally thin figure, but set off a trace of heroism. With a wave of the man's hand, the already cracked ice wall quickly disintegrated, and several thin plants emerged from the disintegrating fragments.

At this time, behind Xiao Ba and them, a cold female voice came out, "Zhang Zintong, what do you want!?" Hearing this voice, Fantuan shouted excitedly: "Sister Xia Yu, why are you here." ”

Isn't it Xia Yu who came, she took advantage of Lu Youxue's retreat to study the mystery of cold water, so she sneaked out, planning to go to Longde City with Xiaoba and Fantuan to watch Fantuan participate in the Chef God Competition, of course, the most fundamental reason is not this, then only Xia Yu himself knows. But just when she saw Xiaoba and the others, and was about to say hello, she found that an eyeless carriage crashed into the three of them, as Lu Youxue's apprentice, Xia Yu has been a princess like the stars and the moon since she was a child, how can she stand this obvious provocation. So she immediately chose to take action, and a wall of ice rose directly, intending to teach the owner of this carriage a good lesson. It's just that Xia Yu didn't expect that the person who came out was still his old acquaintance. Zhang Zitong, two years older than Xia Yu, like her, is an apprentice of the contemporary Dharma God, but Zhang Zitong's master is Zhuang Lan, the wood mage of the Ten Dharma Gods. The two families of Mu and Shui have been friends for a long time, so including Wang Shen, several people have been playmates since childhood. Zhang Zitong has long been obsessed with Xia Yu, but Xia Yu only had Wang Shen in his eyes when he was a child, so Zhang Zinctong has never been able to win Xia Yu's heart no matter how hard he tries. And although Mu Keshui, Zhang Zitong has always been suppressed by Wang Shen, which made him hate Wang Shen very much in his heart, and at the same time felt that Xia Yu had no hope with him, so he left Jifen City to practice.
