Chapter 408 Double Tree Bread (13)

Leaving aside the coincidence of Anfa, a rather mysterious elf, appearing in Double Tree Town, it is not surprising that Mr. Yinfang is in Double Tree Town.

"Here, the special product, Double Tree Bread. It has a real flavor only if you eat it locally while it's hot."

Mr. Yinfang looks a lot younger recently. Except for his white hair, his face with some wrinkles and spots is more soothing and smooth.

He looked at Ian, and his whole body was filled with the kindness of looking at the children of the younger generation. He gently invited the young man to sit down, and brought a plate of bread himself: "I planned to have dinner here, read books and newspapers, didn't I?" Thinking of meeting you——if you don’t mind being short, let’s eat a little to fill our stomachs.”

"Uh, I really didn't eat..."

Ian is actually not very good at dealing with people who are kind to him from the bottom of his heart. He sat on the chair, glanced at the double tree bread in front of him, and then laughed: "Then I will say thank you first."

Double tree bread is actually very simple to make. It looks like a doughnut on the outside, but it is bigger. The crispy golden skin exudes a strong aroma, and the inside is a layer of filling that is almost soft and tender like glutinous rice. Group, and the center is a variety of different fillings.

There are honey-sweet sauces, fruit fillings, sweet and sour ones, and delicious meat fillings-every bakery has its own secret craft, which is different and has its own fans.

The baked double tree bread can be stored for a long time, but it is best to eat it on the spot, so that the sweet sauce and dough inside will not solidify and have a filling texture.

When you bite the crispy bread crust, cut the soft and tough dough with your teeth, let the hot sweet sauce overflow, and chew the aroma of wheat together in your mouth, it is really an enjoyment after a day of work.

"It's really good, quite delicious."

A double tree bread was quickly settled, and Ian had dinner with Mr. Yinfang.

The old man smiled, holding a cup of tea in his hand—he had a big appetite, and just ate a baked naan, a kind of food wrapped in chicken and beef with spicy sauce.

According to personal taste, some soybean paste and vegetables may be added, but most of the time, in order to preserve it for a longer period of time, its taste will not be particularly good, and the ingredients are not as rich as freshly made and eaten.

While eating, Ian was still thinking about Anfa's mysterious whereabouts—the other party had indeed left Le'an collar very early. According to the time, when he arrived in Shuangshu Town, the other party must have arrived long ago.

But the question is, why did the elves who originally planned to go to the deep mountains to find exchanges with the mountain people return to Shuangshu Town?

"Did you see a dragon?"

Recalling the itinerary encountered along the way, Ian felt a little clear: "Xiou found me, so my itinerary was actually delayed, and Anfa happened to miss it with Xiou and arrived in Shuangshu Town ahead of schedule. , plan to see how the dragon is doing? It can’t be called a coincidence, I can only say that the dragon is really eye-catching.”

"He is indeed related to the Dragon Worship Cult."

He has already found the answer in his heart, but Ian still doesn't know many things - among other things, he doesn't know what the Dragon Worship Cult has done in Nauman City.

The young man raised his head and looked at the old man who was sipping a cup of tea in front of him.

Fortunately, he happened to meet an elder who knew.

"What happened in Nauman City? Good question. To be honest, most people don't know, but I happen to understand the doorway inside."

Mr. Yinfang also prepared a cup of elf tea for Ian. Canaan Moore is famous for its fine leaf tea and scented tea. The old man drinks it himself. The green tea like the blue sea is called 'Moon Sea', which is a special kind of tea. The tea tree in the water is produced, and Ian prepared a cup of light blue, named 'Lan Sha', which tastes sweet and refreshing.

The old man showed an expression of reminiscence: "About a week ago, a merchant ship from Canaan Moore ran aground and sank at Blackstone Bay, and the sea guards who went to rescue them did not find any living creatures and crew members on the merchant ship—— It turned out to be an empty ship, which aroused suspicion."

"Soon, Nauman City found out that this ship was controlled by the Dragon Worship Cult. They committed a crime on the Canaan Moore, fought with the candle holders, and lost, so they hid their identities along the way and took a 'Baby' wanted to escape to us, but was sunk halfway, so it had to be broken into pieces and hid in our place."

"It stands to reason that the group of Dragon Worshipers has already succeeded. They have already come to the empire, and each of them has integrated into the local area with the prepared fake identities. The candle holders will at most inform us of their identities, and then we will send the knights to arrest them. But the group of Dragon Worshipers are said to have a very precious treasure in their hands, so they chased after it, and were found by the guards of the Knights. "

At this point, Mr. Yinfang picked up his teacup and toasted in the direction of Nauman City with some indifference: "It was a good battle. The sewers in the DC area were completely blown up, and the garden of Lord Marquis was full of filth. ...To be honest, I didn't just come to Shuangshu Town for safety reasons, after all, at least this place...the air is clean."

"That was a good fight."

Ian lowered his head, and he laughed uncontrollably—although he already knew that this kind of outsider who hides his identity wants to hide. Either the local accomplices have a stronghold, or they hide in a dark and hidden place like the sewer .

But he didn't expect that it would be the result of "the knights and the candle holders fought to the end of Nauman City, and even the sewers were wiped out".

The new ending of the classic drama belongs to yes.

"Of course, it's all a joke. The candle holders are fine, but the main reason is that there are other forces coming. That night, the entire city of Nauman was restless, and everyone was afraid."

Mr. Yinfang also laughed, and the old man said humorously: "Two different groups of mysterious people, members of the Dragon Worship Cult who revealed their identities, counting the Knights and Candle Holders, and the Huaiguang Church that keeps its doors closed, there are even more people in six directions. Many forces are playing games in the city-they are really going to fight, and it is definitely not just the sewers in the DC area that will suffer."

After laughing, the old man felt a little emotional again: "Earlier yesterday, people who worshiped the Dragon Sect were about to be caught, but a dragon flew over directly, and the whole city was shocked, but just for a while , the people of the Dragon Worship Sect will slip away, so fast that they won’t slip away.”

"When the dragon really appears, everyone is really panicked. This means that the group of Dragon Worshipers really have strong support in the local area. This is not a problem that can be solved by arresting people, so when we leave Nao When Manchester City, the city has settled down a lot, but there are still dangers."

"No one wants to be attacked by a real dragon in order to catch some members of the Dragon Worshiper, right? Other forces may not care, but the Marquis of Barton and the Knights don't intend to do this. The loss outweighs the gain."

The old man concluded with this sentence: "So the situation has froze."

"To tell the truth." Ian drank the sweet tea, put down the teacup, and asked with some doubts: "Wouldn't it be easier to be attacked by dragons outside the city?"

"My little knight..." Mr. Yinfang waved his hand, he smiled, and then passed on his experience to Ian: "Worshiping the Dragon is not a new cult. It is a cult that wants to become famous. It was established 600 years ago. It became famous all over the mainland.”

"It's fine to pretend to attack the city to show your attitude. If you really go crazy enough to attack the villages and towns and kill a lot of people, how do they recruit people locally? How do they smuggle supplies? Especially in a key transit point like Shuangshu Town, there are no people of their own." Is it possible? The key to a local organization is to have people's hearts locally, unless they come from other places, such as Flame Land, and...you know, those guys from the Imperial Capital."

He blinked at Ian, and said nothing: "Believe me, you can't fight. If you really fight, especially when the dragon comes to attack, the city wall is just a decoration."

"This kind of place is much safer than a big city."

What Mr. Yinfang said is indeed true, because Ian also saw that although the dragon seemed to fly very fast yesterday, it looked like a high-speed missile, but in fact it just went around the sky above Nauman City to show its existence The feeling disappeared, and I didn't want to really fight.

Suppose, the dragon I saw yesterday is the same dragon that I met at night...

"So that's why Anfa ran back to Nauman City for this reason..."

Ian thought about it.

At this moment, he showed a young man who was very curious and wanted to hear stories from his elders: "Mr. Yinfang, I don't have much information about Port Harrison... I don't know exactly what these forces represent."

"What kind of forces are the Dragon Worshipers and the candle holders?"

"Things like dragons are not uncommon, and it's not uncommon to worship them, so why is it a cult?"
