Magic Chef of Ice and Fire

However, this situation did not last too long, because there was a knock on the door.

"Nian Bing, are you there?" Melting Bing's familiar voice came from outside the door, waking Nian Bing up from reading. He hurriedly jumped off the bed and came to the door to welcome Rong Bing in.

"Brother, why are you here? The Rising Magician Contest is about to start, don't you need to practice more?" Nian Bing looked at his brother in surprise.

Melting Bing smiled and said: "After all, the effect of sharpening a gun is limited. I have confidence in myself. You see what this is." While talking, he took out a book from his arms and handed it to Nian Bing. To be precise, that It is not a real book, but a stack of papers strung together with thread. Nian Bing took it over and took a look, only to see a few large characters written on the first page, the complete collection of remnants of ancient magic circles and annotations. When I opened it again, I saw that the handwriting on the paper was still fresh, it was obviously a transcribed book!

Looking up, Nian Bing saw the bloodshot eyes in Rong Bing's eyes. No need to ask, he also knew what his brother had done. Nian Bing's eyes were moist, "Brother, you..."

Rong Bing smiled and said, "Look, see if you can use it. You must be better than me in the magic circle. I fainted when I saw those complicated symbols. You need to work harder! I think this book It should be enough for you to study for a period of time. I copied it from more than a dozen books on magic circles. They are all extremely complicated ancient magic circles. , it should be of great use to you."

Nian Bing tightly squeezed the paper in his hand, this is the crystallization of Rong Bing who didn't sleep all night! After twelve years, my brother hasn't changed at all, he is still as good to himself as before.

"Okay, my brother, if you say something grateful, don't blame me for turning against you. You finally came back, let's go, I will take you out to taste the delicious food of our capital Tiancheng. Magic research is not in a hurry, too tired But it’s not good.” Saying that, he pulled up Nian Bing and walked out.

yes! There is no need to say thank you between brothers. Some things are much better with actions than words. Nian Bing carefully put this stack of paper and that note into the ring of space, and then followed Melting Bing out of the hotel. Before leaving the hotel, Nian Bing used the newly obtained brooch to change his appearance and hair, and his hair turned black. Under the effect of magic, his face had some inconspicuous changes, and his facial features only changed a little. , but together, they are completely different from before. He is also a handsome young man, but now he no longer looks like Rong Bing.

"Brother, you have worked hard all night, so you don't need to entertain me, go back and rest quickly. Maintaining a good mental strength is what a magician must do." Nian Bing looked at the trace of tiredness in Rong Bing's eyes, and couldn't bear it for a while. , This is all because of myself!

Rong Bing smiled slightly, and said: "Okay, I will eat even if you don't eat it! You also know that I worked hard all night, so why don't I comfort myself. It's almost noon, and I'll go back after dinner meditation.

"He has already said so, Nian Bing is not good enough to refuse Melting Ice's kindness, and the two took big steps towards the most prosperous city center of Dutian City.

While walking, Rong Bing explained the surrounding buildings to Nian Bing, like a guide, speaking happily, except for the occasional tiredness in his eyes, it was hard to tell from his appearance that he hadn't slept all night.

"Look, ahead is our destination today. This restaurant is quite famous. Although the store is not big, the food they make is absolutely top-notch and the price is cheap. I have always been very picky with my mouth, but It’s a regular class here. Even grandpa often asks his servants to buy food from here and go back to eat.” While talking, Rong Bing pointed to a shop not far ahead.

Nian Bing looked around, and saw not far ahead, a two-story shop was full of people, and there was a long line outside, and the plaque above the shop had two gilded characters - extremely fresh. Seeing this, he couldn't help smiling slightly, and said, "This shop is so big! What do they do? Seafood?"

Rong Bing shook his head and said, "Of course not. Seafood can be found everywhere, but they are unique here. Come on, brother won't lie to you, just try it and you'll know."

While talking, Rong Bing pulled Nian Bing around the long queue to the front of the store, and the waiter at the door who was in charge of maintaining order immediately greeted him, "Little prince, you are here, let's go to the old place, right?" .”

Facing outsiders, Rong Bing no longer had the gentle smile towards Nian Bing, his face was covered with a layer of coldness, he didn't even bother to say anything, he just nodded.

The waiter seemed to be used to seeing him like this, and hurriedly led the two into the Jixian Hotel.

Someone in the long queue at the door of the store said in surprise: "Didn't it mean there is no room inside? Why did they just go in."

Another person said disdainfully: "Xiaomian, you are new here. You don't even know the little prince of Prince Rong's mansion. Prince Rong's family is for the country and the people. If they still line up for food, we won't agree. Eat late You won't die from starvation."

Although the last person spoke very rudely, the person who spoke first didn't even dare to fart, and hurriedly lowered his head and continued to line up honestly.

Nian Bing and Rong Bing walked into the Jixian Hotel. As soon as they entered the door, they were greeted with a strong smell of medicine. In this mixed umami flavor, he couldn't tell what the raw material was. The reason was very simple, because this mixed scent contained too many raw materials, and it couldn't be determined in a short while.

This hotel is very characteristic, each table is separated by bamboo curtains, you can only vaguely see someone inside, but you can't see clearly. The waiter led Nian Bing and Rong Bing to a table near the window on the innermost floor. When passing by other tables, you can see through the bamboo curtain that there are already people inside, only this one is empty. of.

This location is very good, as long as you lift up the bamboo curtain, you can clearly see everything on the street. Although there are many people in the store, it is not noisy.

Rong Bing smiled and said, "Just the two of us, let's sit here. Although it's not a private room, I like the air here. The private rooms on the second floor can seat more than a dozen people, so there's no need for us."

Hearing Rong Bing's simple words, Nian Bing couldn't help getting to know his elder brother a little better. As his little prince, it's okay to leave a private room for many years, but he only left a small table. This simple style deeply fits Nian Bing's heart.

Melting Bing raised his head and said to the waiter: "It's the same as before, but today we need to add eight more materials, you can choose according to your choice, you want the best."

The waiter agreed and turned around.

After a while, a large casserole was brought up. Under the casserole was an iron square box, which contained something unknown. The waiter skillfully opened one side of the square box, took out a fire bag from his arms, and put it in the box. There was a little inside, and suddenly, with a pop, flames burst out from the top of the box, baking the bottom of the casserole.

Nian Bing looked at the small iron box in surprise, not understanding how it was done, Rong Bing saw the doubts in his heart, smiled and said: "This is the first method of this shop. In fact, the method is very simple, but the cost But it’s very high, so don’t look at the small size of the store here. In fact, the food is a bit more expensive than the big restaurants outside. Do you know what’s in this iron box? It’s high-grade spirits, without any blending Liquor is ignited with fire, and it naturally becomes the best thing to heat, and its biggest feature is that there is no smoke."

Wine, hearing this word Nian Bing couldn't help but be moved. As a top chef, the sudden awakening made him think of many things, not just heating, but also the production methods of many dishes. The aroma of wine is used in dishes, as long as it is used properly, it will definitely have a very good effect.

While Nian Bing was thinking about his own cooking skills, the waiter opened the lid of the casserole and walked out. The tangy aroma attracted Nian Bing to look into the pot. He was surprised to find that it was a pot of porridge , under the heating of the flame, dense bubbles are rolling, and the aroma comes from the porridge. Nian Bing sniffed, and couldn't help but admire: "Good porridge, although it is white porridge on the surface, there is an old hen in it." The thick juice is boiled, and some specially selected medicines are ground into powder, I think, there should be wolfberry, Sanqi, um, there are one or two that I can't smell clearly."

This time it was Rong Bing's turn to be surprised, "Brother, you know better than me whether you have eaten here before. After eating so many times, I don't even know what is in his porridge."

Nian Bing smiled slightly and said: "Brother, your brother is not only a magician, but also a chef! I have a chance to let you taste my craftsmanship."

While talking, the waiter came up again. There were eight dishes of ingredients in the large tray in his hand, including four kinds of vegetables and four kinds of meat. , chicken and pork, whether vegetables or meat, are raw without any processing. Seeing this scene, Nian Bing couldn't help being surprised: "Is it porridge for cooking?"

Rong Bing picked up the plate of chrysanthemum chrysanthemum and put it into the porridge, and said with a smile: "Yes, it is cooked with porridge. What we operate here is a hundred-flavored porridge pot. The porridge itself tastes very good. Every time you add a material, The taste will change once and for all, it’s definitely delicious! Moreover, the nutritional value is also very high.” While speaking, he stirred the pot with a spoon, so that the chrysanthemum chrysanthemum and the porridge were fully blended together.

This is the first time Nian Bing has seen this novel way of eating, and he couldn’t help but be very interested. Chrysanthemum chrysanthemum is easy to cook, and it shrinks when heated. The melting ice served him a bowl and put it in front of him. At the same time, he also filled a bowl for himself. Then another plate of pork was placed, "Try it quickly, don't you say that you are a chef, how about tasting the deliciousness of this porridge pot."

The delicious white porridge with green vegetables, the change in taste really surprised Nian Bing. It was the first time he had eaten such a delicious thing in these days. After a while, a bowl of delicious porridge was already eaten. Melting ice keeps putting plates of ingredients into the pot. As he said, every time a material is added, the taste of the porridge pot will change. When the porridge in the porridge pot is reduced to a certain level, the waiter Will come with prepared porridge. After eating the first eight plates of ingredients, another eight plates of various seafood, such as shrimp, squid, crab meat, etc., changed the taste more frequently. Both Nian Bing and Rong Bing are young men with fresh blood. They both had a big appetite, and they ate three pots of white porridge and sixteen plates of ingredients before stopping in satisfaction.

"Brother, this is really a good place. Seeing this method of cooking has inspired me a lot. It really deserves to be a hundred flavors porridge pot!" Nian Bing looked at the empty pot in front of him in admiration. At this time, the pot in the iron box below The spirits are gone. The waiter brought up a plate of fruit for the two to clear their mouths. Nian Bing ate two pieces of fruit and said: "Brother, I'm a little anxious, wait for me for a while."

Rong Bing smiled and said: "Go to the table after eating, you are really straight, go quickly, go out and turn right, go to the head and turn left and you will see the place of five drums of reincarnation." Blinked.

Nian Bing got up and went, Rong Bing's eyes showed a knowing smile, and he was eating fruit leisurely. At this moment, he suddenly heard some noise outside, so he couldn't help lifting the bamboo curtain to look out, only to see that the outside was responsible for maintaining The orderly waiter was politely declining a girl. Seeing this girl, even Melting Bing, whose eyes were above the top, couldn't help but feel a little dazed. This girl is so beautiful, even though she was wearing a long aqua blue dress, she wasn't very neat. , but it can't conceal his peerless youth. His long pink hair is scattered behind his back, looking a little messy, and his dusty appearance is heartbreaking. His beautiful face is covered with a layer of chill, and he is slightly angry Said: "I haven't come here for a long time, you have too many rules here, and I don't eat here, can I take it away? I drove a long way, and I am very hungry."

The waiter was also fascinated by the girl's appearance, but the Jixian store has strict regulations, so he had no choice but to say: "Sorry girl, we have rules here, no takeaway. You have also seen that there is such a long line outside. If you If you want to dine with us, please go to the back and line up, the rules cannot be broken!" As soon as the waiter said this, before the girl could speak, someone in the crowd said: "Girl, come to my place, hurry up!" It's my turn, if you don't mind, how about having a meal with us at the same table?" As soon as this remark came out, there was a burst of echo.

A cold light flashed in the eyes of the stunning girl, "No need, thank you for your kindness, I don't believe that there is no place to eat in the big city of Dutian."
