Could it be that Teacher Abedo left at this time?But it shouldn't be like this... Even if Mr. Abedo wants to record the little dragon and draw its appearance, he can climb the mountain with his party.Or, is the teacher guilty of his occasional bad taste?

"Teacher Abedo, don't joke with us~" Granu, who controlled his voice, waited quietly. However, after 1 minute, no one appeared in the silent cave except three people and one dragon. In the eyes of everyone.

"It's really gone..." The reality made Sugar lower her head, and the beast ears on both sides of the girl's head, which was slightly depressed, also drooped. external grievances.

"This... Maybe geniuses have some maverick habits?" Xia Yu, who was trying to comfort the sugar, came to the girl. "Anyway, let's meet him later and ask him why he can't leave?"

Although the straight man's comfort could not gain too much goodwill, it succeeded in making Sugar recover from his depressed mood.Xia Yu, who was ahead of the two, walked out of the cave and stared at the vast white scenery outside, stunned.

Is this the standard explanation for being handsome for less than three seconds...

Due to the uncontrollability of Wind Wings, it slipped from the plank road to where it is now, and in this snow-capped icy world, Xia Yu, who was in the snow-capped mountains for the first time, successfully lost his way!

Xia Yu, who was standing at the entrance of the cave, fell into contemplation and looked at the little dragon squatting on his shoulder. This little guy who could be regarded as a new born was happily fanning his little wings for this beautiful snow scene. From the looks of it, it certainly doesn't know how to go in the snow-capped mountains.

"Sorry, I underestimate the snowy mountains, you should lead the way..." Xia Yu, with an embarrassed smile on his face, resolutely gave up the leader of the team to Noelle and Xia Tang, who were following behind. The contrast made Noelle burst into laughter for a while.

"It doesn't matter, leave it all to me, I am familiar with the roads here." Noelle pointed to the right position with a smile, and continued: "After passing through the cave to the right from here, we can return to The main road is on the way, but because the terrain here is very low, the position you are facing after passing through is in front of the big tree stump that was covered by ice..."

What?A big tree stump covered in ice! ?After listening to Noelle's explanation, Xia Yu fell into petrification.After entering the snowy mountain, if there was anything that left a deep impression on Xia Yu, apart from the magical fire elf barrier along the way, it would be the frozen huge wooden stake with a diameter of at least ten meters.

But that huge wooden stake is just at the crossing of the snowy mountain!That is to say, he floated directly from the mountainside back to the foot of the mountain. If you include this section of the road through the cave, it would be equivalent to directly returning to the location of the river that separates Mond and Longji Snow Mountain...

All the hard work along the way paid off!

————————————————————————

"Huh... I've finally come up again." Xia Yu, who finally flew over the broken bridge normally, was relieved by the turmoil brought by all the rework. Xia Yu, who finally reached the end, desperately wanted to shout out loud to vent his suffocation. Emotional, but when he remembered that this was a snowy mountain, and he was fused with dragon blood, he didn't know how much disaster it might bring, so Xia Yu had to forcibly press back the sound that had already reached his mouth.

Compared to Xia Yu, who could only swallow his grievances, the little black dragon on Xia Yu's shoulders, who could clearly feel his happiness, didn't have so many worries.

"Ow~" The little guy who was just about to speak was covered by Xia Yu before he opened his mouth. Feeling the little guy's emotional confusion, Xia Yu pointed to the top of the mountain shrouded in the cold wind. "Be quiet! We are in the snow-capped mountains now, and if it causes an avalanche, it will be over!" Xiao Heilong, who understood why Xia Yu had to cover his mouth, also nodded spiritually to show his understanding.

Xia Yu, who felt finally relieved, didn't know whether to cry or laugh as he entered the naturally formed small cave along the mountain.There are not many things imprinted in his eyes: the same alchemy synthesis table as in Mond City, various alchemy tools, and a lot of data records... The neat camp gives Xia Yu the feeling It's not like a camp for long-term rest, but more like a simple alchemy laboratory.

There was no sign of Abedo in the camp that could be swept away at a glance. Just when Xia Yu was a little overwhelmed, a young man with a palette of paint brushes and a small manuscript came to the cave.

Although it wasn't quite sure who the man with light brown hair was in front of him, Xia Yu could somehow sense that it was Abeduo.

The appearance is exactly the same as the one I saw in the valley a few hours ago. Abeduoguang, who is like an artist who has returned from sketching, is actually younger than Xia Yu in terms of appearance.But compared to the frenzy in his eyes when we met a few hours ago, when the young man in front of him met with his party again, his expression was more indifferent than doubt.

In addition, there is the star-shaped mark on Abedo's neck. This particularly conspicuous mark caused Xia Yu's doubts.Although the memory is a little vague, Xia Yu dares to be roughly sure that when he met Abedo before, there should be no star on his neck.

Because if there is, such a special mark will definitely leave a deep impression on him, how can he still be a little unclear like now?

"Sir, can you let me see the little dragon on your shoulder? Don't worry, I'm just observing it from a close distance, and it won't hurt it." The look on Abedo's face, who asked Xia Yu, was slightly complicated.

Just looking at it shouldn't have any effect on Xiaolong. After thinking about it for a while, Xia Yu, who nodded his approval, was moved by the other party's eyes full of curiosity.And for some reason, Xia Yu always felt as if he had met an acquaintance when he met Abedo, even though this was the first time he had spoken to him.

What's going on here?

A short period of time passed, and through chatting, Xia Yu had a general understanding of the way this talented young man named Abedo lived.

His own guesses have now been proven to be sloppy. The other party is indeed a type who loves alchemy research, but something is different. Unlike those researchers who forget to sleep and eat when they work, Abedo's arrangements for his life Very stylish, although his laboratory in the snowy mountains is not very good.

"So this time I entered the snowy mountain to ask Mr. Abedo for advice. Can a storage box-like prop that automatically absorbs the ice elements floating in the air and uses the concentration of ice elements to control the temperature difference can be made?" Xia Yu asked Abedo. His eyes were full of anticipation.

As if to prevent the other party from thinking that the question he asked was too difficult, Xia Yu quickly added: "The concentration of ice elements in the air is definitely enough, Mr. Abedo only uses the ice around the frozen tree in the south of the Temple of the Wolf of the West Wind as a reference. The element concentration can be weakened by about one time and a similar design can be done.”

"Temperature-controlled storage box? This idea is quite interesting." The items described by Xia Yu aroused Abedo's interest.

"It's not too difficult in theory, as long as you can store ice elements and control the amount of release, you can make this item... A formation that absorbs ice elements independently, cold-resistant and heat-insulating raw materials... ." Abedo, who was writing and drawing on the paper, seemed to be in a state of research.

After a while, a square stone box with a very beautiful appearance appeared on the drawing paper. The various materials listed next to it and the notes on various strings made Xia Yu's scalp tingle.

Do you need so much material?Just by the name of the ore, I have seen seven or eight kinds of it. Except for the most basic marcasite, the Star Silver Mine has heard the blacksmith Wagner mention it when I bought a kitchen knife, but what is this stone?What is Yebo Stone?

Although Xia Yu knows nothing about the classification of ores, he can still estimate the price by analogy and conjecture.In the remarks given by Abedo, it was written that the stone perch would be depicted as the base of the alchemy energy transformation circle, so it seems that this ore called stone perch should be very expensive.

Judging from the existing results, it is completely no problem for Abedo to design a refrigerator for refrigeration and freezing. The existing problem is that I don't have that much money to buy these raw materials...

"Mr. Abedo, why don't you help me estimate the price and let me see how much Mora would cost to make two such props..." Xia Yu, who seemed a little guilty, was a little puzzled after seeing Abedo wave his hand. What does the other person mean.

"I will make two of these props for you, of course it's not free." Having said that, Abedo looked at Xiaolong, who was yawning on Xia Yu's shoulder, and continued: "As long as you treat it well, Then I will help you make two alchemy props like this."

"Deal!" The other party's condition was not a condition at all, so Xia Yu agreed immediately.

In order to avoid the suspicion of the talented young man in front of him, Xia Yu continued to add: "Actually, to tell you the truth, I plunged into the heart of the magic dragon Du Lin before, and then I saw its life experience like a spectator. , so I generally understand the past experience of this little guy.

"But how do you say it? Maybe because of being soaked in dragon blood, I have a similar blood connection with it, and I naturally won't do anything like abandoning it."

"Doolin's heart? No wonder my induction disappeared when I was sketching, and the breath on your body..." Abeduo, who had finished mumbling in a low voice, nodded towards Xia Yu. "Since this is the case, I think I can trust you. After I have collected the materials, I will go back to Mond City, and I will ask Timaus to inform you."

Seeing that business and professional issues were finally discussed, Tang Tang, who was a little resentful, looked at his teacher and asked, "Mr. Abedo, if you care so much about this little dragon, why did you leave early? "The question from the sugar made Abedo a little puzzled.

"Wait... I'm leaving?"

Chapter 42 Genius 'Teenager' Abedo, a smooth deal

what? ?

I never expected that Abedo would be confused by the fact that he and the others had met. The person who was most surprised by this strange situation was not Xia Yu, who fell off the cliff as a hapless one, but Xia Tang, who was most familiar with Abedo.

As Abedo's assistant, Xia Tang is very aware of his teacher Abedo's character. From time to time, he makes some small jokes to make him startle. Abedo does retain a playful personality, but more of it is a pursuit of knowledge. the rigor of the researcher.

If you really want to say, Abedo and most people only stay at the level of 'colleagues who have a good relationship at work' in dealing with interpersonal relationships.It is very rare to see a situation where the mood has obviously changed after picking up the little black dragon like today.

"But Mr. Abedo, when I came to ask you for help, you were not looking at the alchemy records. After listening, you put down the alchemy records in your hand and immediately spread out the wings of the wind with me and jumped off the cliff to save people. Are you saying that, teacher, you are joking again?"

"...Well, it was discovered." Although Abedo admitted it, for some reason, Xia Yu always felt that the other party's tone was a little weird.However, the two times I met people who looked like this, and the Abedo I met at the foot of the mountain was also found by Sugar. Although there was a strange sense of disobedience, Xia Yu couldn't tell what it was. reason.

Forget it, just treat it as if the other party really made a joke with his party.

Repeated climbing twice disrupted the time plan. After discussing with Abedo about the 'refrigerator' he needed, his rumbling stomach told him that it was time to eat lunch.

Ugh... Falling off the cliff and climbing again is a waste of time.Fortunately, this trip to the snow-capped mountains was very rewarding. Considering the little dragon beside him and the refrigerator that he could get for free as long as he kept this little dragon well, Xia Yu also accepted the result of this trip to the snow-capped mountains.

After rummaging in the backpack for a while, Xia Yu took out the butter, cheese, toast, and smoked bacon and sausage bought in the city.The diet in the snowy mountains is mainly based on high-calorie diets, so as to ensure sufficient energy when moving in the snowy mountains.Just when Xia Yu was about to use the bonfire in Abedo's camp to start making lunch, Abedo stopped Xia Yu.

"Everyone must be tired after walking for so long, so let me cook lunch." Abedo, who talked about cooking, seemed extremely confident, and opened the wooden box he used to store ingredients. A wide variety of ingredients were eaten by Abedo Take it out of the box.

Xia Yu was extremely surprised by Abedo, who skillfully borrowed unknown equipment in the camp to melt the snow into water and completed the purification.Although Abedo's recipe is very simple: a large pot of stew made of beef, potatoes, tomatoes and chickpeas.But Abedo's pretreatment of each ingredient and the cooking process are quite in place, even to the point of a little perfection.

This is not a craft that can be practiced in a few years!If you really want to comment, the feeling of mastery in handling ingredients that Abedo shows even surpasses that of the cooking masters that he has been fortunate to meet!

how can that be?You know, those are the top figures who have gone all the way in the chef industry.Pick one at random, and they've been cooking for more than twice their age.But the food processing technology revealed by Abedo is even better than them!

The learning of cooking skills requires years of practice and thinking to improve slowly, and few people can reach the sky in one step.But Abedo did it. How did he overcome these skills that need to be accumulated over time?This is too great.

What's more critical is that Abedo's main occupation is still an alchemist. Is this a genius in all aspects?Xia Yu, who was frightened by this young man who was just a few years younger than himself, was extremely shocked.

"After living in the snow-capped mountains for so many years, I still have some confidence in cooking." Looking at Xia Yu, who was frightened by himself, Abedou gave a rare smile, and then continued: "I'll let you taste it when you have time. Try my specialty dish 'Lin Zhimeng', which is fried cod in butter with a specially-treated solution of sagebrush, and let me try your special dish when that time comes."

"Wait... how did you know I'm a chef?"

"It's very simple. When I'm processing the key steps of the ingredients, your attention has improved a lot. The people who can notice these points are either skilled cooks or gourmets. Since you have mentioned If you cook the lunch, the possibility of being a chef is much greater."

"But in this case, I am more at ease with the future of this little dragon." Abedo, who spoke here, looked meaningfully at the little black dragon who was drooling at the food in the pot, and then came to the easel and started painting.

What is this for?Xia Yu, who originally thought that Abedo was trying to paint a picture of this little dragon that he valued a lot, found out that Abedo was painting a few common small stools on the drawing paper at a very fast speed.Just when Xia Yu wanted to ask what Abedo wanted to do, the miraculous scene made Xia Yu's jaw drop to the ground in surprise.

This... how is this done?The painted small bench was actually taken out of the painting!In order to confirm whether he was hallucinating, Xia Yu, who came to one of the small benches, patted the wooden surface lightly, and the solid feeling returned fully explained that it was the real thing.

???

"Don't be too surprised, alchemy is a science that understands and pursues the essence of things. As long as the essence of an item is mastered, it can be manufactured by specific means when the materials are sufficient." It is like describing Xia Yu was stunned by what Abedo said as plain as 'people need to eat and drink water'.

If Xia Yu was still envious and a little bit jealous about Abedo's ability to combine cooking and painting at the beginning, after seeing the alchemy skills that Abedo showed at hand, the original jealousy disappeared instantly. .

Genius often attracts the jealousy of others, but if it exceeds the expectations of ordinary people too much, the jealousy will disappear. At this time, Xia Yu had such an idea.It's okay to be jealous of such a genius who seems to have a protagonist panel.

"By the way, Mr. Abedo, I also want to consult with you about something." Xia Yu, who suddenly remembered that he had something to do, took the cheese block in his hand, and then asked Abedo, "Is there a problem? What about an apparatus that can speed up the fermentation process of food raw materials like cheese?"

Douban Sauce!How could I have almost forgotten about this!If there is no tool to speed up fermentation, the simplest bean paste will need to be put on for at least half a year, and the fava bean paste will slowly start to accumulate when the fermented bean paste is produced. If you want to taste the various foods made by doubanjiang, you need to wait. It's been too long.

After briefly explaining, looking at Abedo who was bowing his head in deep thought, Xia Yu's palms were slightly sweaty as he clenched his hands. He didn't expect that he would be as nervous as a student waiting for the final exam results to be released.The tension in the long-lost daily life made Xia Yu a little surprised for a while.

"Is there any material that needs to be fermented... Because it involves the concept of time, understanding things will become a little troublesome. But you can try it and see." Abedo, who finally agreed, made Xia Yu feel excited. .

When he said this, Abedo raised his head and looked at the top of the cave above, with a slightly complicated look in his eyes. After a short silence, Abedo, who had returned to normal, looked at Xia Yu, and then said: "The corresponding reward is... There may be one more friend who needs to be taken care of by you at that time."

"I'll go and have a good talk with him, and I'll ask you to help him when the time comes."

————————————————————————

Meimei enjoyed a steaming lunch, then said goodbye to Abedo and went down the snowy mountain to return home. The physical enhancement brought by bathing in dragon blood made Xia Yu not feel too tired even after walking for nearly half a day.

Although Abedo had said that he needed another friend to help him take care of him, until he left, Abedo did not mention who his 'friend' was.

Forget it, let's manage the current situation first. Although the little black dragon, who is still in its infancy, has the same heart as his own, it can't express what he wants very well now.According to Abedo, this situation should last for about a week. After a week has passed, the little black dragon who has the initial ability to express will be able to express what he wants to express accurately and quickly.

Isn't this similar to how babies learn to speak?

But this is raising dragons after all... Xia Yu suddenly realized a very terrifying thing, and that is the appetite of dragons.Although this little black dragon has been seen on the snowy mountain as an omnivorous animal, its appetite is not small.

After satisfying himself, Sugar, Noelle, and Abedo, there was still more than half of the large pot of food, but it was easily swept away by this little guy.It was difficult for Xia Yu to imagine how so much food could be stuffed into this little guy's chubby belly.

That is, the efficiency of earning mora must be further improved.

"Little guy, in which direction are you going?" Xia Yu, who was teasing Xiaolong lightly, felt a little curious. Since he had seen Du Lin's past in a dream, and the truth that Abedo had secretly told himself before parting, Xia Yu felt a little curious. Several books have been able to confirm that this little dragon is the reincarnation of Du Lin.

Doolin has a very special negative meaning for the entire Mond region. Although a long time has passed since then, Barbatos, the god of wind, has personally experienced the scenes of battles and disasters. I guess it's time to explain to him well...

Control, recovery, moderation, play... After receiving the intermittent information from the serious-looking little black dragon, Xia Yu, who lightly touched the top of the little guy's head, gave up his plan to continue the questioning.

Sure enough, these things can't be rushed. Just when Xia Yu stood up and was about to take the little guy back to the house to prepare the dishes for tomorrow's sale, the sound from the door caught Xia Yu's attention.

After opening the door, the figures of Ying and Paimon appeared at the door, and the smiles on the faces of the two who came to find him seemed a bit strange. "That... Xia Yu, can I ask the specific business hours of your shop?" Paimon asked Xia Yu with a look of anticipation on his face.

"We originally planned to come to your shop for lunch after we were busy with the Knights, but I didn't expect you to be here..." When he said this, Xia Yu also understood, it turned out to be Paimon. The little guy is thirsty.

Considering that Abedo has not finished making the refrigerator yet, and many ingredients are not easy to store too much, Xia Yu said: "Because the things I want when I open the store here are not ready, so I can't fix it for the time being. But as long as there is no If there is an unexpected situation, there will definitely be business hours three to five days a week, after all, I rely on this craft to make money."

"Okay!" Paimon, who flew several laps in the air because of his happy mood, made Xia Yu laugh. The cheerful atmosphere also infected Ying, who was also smiling, and the blond girl, Ying, patted it lightly. Pai Meng's little head next to her, when Ying's eyes returned to Xia Yu's body, the girl's complexion suddenly changed dramatically.

"Xia Yu, you...behind you!" Ying, who pointed to the mid-air position behind him, rounded his eyes, his eyes filled with an unbelievable look. "Xia Yu, dragon! There is a dragon behind you!" Ying, who was reminding Xia Yu frantically, made Xia Yu laugh.

"Don't worry, there's no problem, this little dragon is one of the harvests of today's trip to the snow-capped mountains. And it's been inspected by Abedo, so there won't be any problems." Xia Yu, who thought Ying wanted to talk about Du Lin's identity, was in After explaining it, she found that the girl shook her head frantically.

"No, that's not what I want to say." Ying looked at Xia Yu with envy in her eyes because she had been in contact with Twalin and Barbatos. "This is a dragon! Is such a rare creature as special to you as the monsters in your yard?"

"Ow~" It seemed that he understood what Ying was saying, or he was interested in seeing Paimon who was floating in the air as he could fly, and the flapping little black dragon imitated Paimon's behavior and floated. Beside Xia Yu, then, it seemed that it was a little too laborious to float in place, and the little black dragon who stopped standing stood on Xia Yu's outstretched arm, and the happy look in his eyes attracted Ying who watched the whole process with great envy.

really!Not only ordinary monsters, but even dragons are so close to him!Why don't I have this ability?
