Magic Merchant Racial Anecdote

The black walnut dining table is full of ingredients.Alai took Xiaolong from Ned's hand, carefully placed him in the middle of the table, looked up and thought for a while, and finally decided to try the most likely meat first.

The beef jerky just now should be hard for Xiaolong to bite, in this case... A Lai cut off a piece of chicken breast, briefly fried it in a pan, tore off a small piece, and handed it to Xiaolong's mouth.

Sure enough, Xiaolong poked his head out very interested, and took a small bite, but after taking one bite, he lay back uninterestedly, and didn't take a second bite.

Alai frowned in bewilderment, and looked up to ask Ned if he had any good suggestions, but found a certain dragon that was supposed to be helping, secretly eating the leftover chicken breast in the pot.

"——!" At that moment, Alai clearly felt that the nerve called reason in his brain broke down again.

Ned, who was eating chicken breast with his back to Alai, clearly felt the stagnation in the air.He stopped chewing, turned his head with tiny hopes, and found that Alai was staring at him expressionlessly with a sullen face.

Oops, found out.

Ned laughed awkwardly, and just wanted to explain something, but forgot that he had not completely swallowed the chicken breast, opened his mouth and choked, coughing heart-piercingly.

This cough, on the contrary, coughed up Alai's anger.He sighed silently, poured a glass of water for Ned, and didn't expect Ned to give any constructive suggestions, as long as he didn't make trouble, he would be thankful.

Thinking of this, Alai tried several common meats, from fish to mutton, and tried all kinds of meat that fly in the sky, run on the ground, and swim in the water.Some of the little dragons were willing to take a sip, but most of them he turned his head indifferently, and he didn't even want to smell it.

Of course, all the meat that Xiaolong detested ended up in Ned's stomach.

Ah Lai had no choice but to let the system 'Xiao Ye' search to see what Xiaolong could eat.But there was so little news about the dragon race on the Internet, so he had to try to feed the little dragon dairy products according to the preferences of cubs of other races.

From cow's milk to goat's milk to yogurt, after a series of trials, Alai finally discovered that Xiaolong's favorite food was cheese.

He put down a chunk of cheese the size of his thumb and handed it to Xiaolong's mouth. Seeing that he tentatively sniffed it first, then he said "—Guji!", very happy, and leaned over to take a big bite, chewing on it while chewing. While making a "ji-gu, ji-gu" sound, it seems to be seriously evaluating how delicious this thing is.

The next thing was much simpler. Alai held the cheese in one hand and hugged the little dragon with the other, feeding him patiently.Seeming to be hungry, Xiaolong ate most of the cheese in Alai's hand in the blink of an eye, burped a little, and stopped moving.

A Lai breathed a sigh of relief, and just fed Xiaolong, but he didn't expect to be so tired.He put Xiaolong back on the table, intending to eat something before taking him to the Lost Center.

From early in the morning to now, he deeply felt that he had already endured too much.I am really exhausted now, and I am so hungry that my chest is pressed against my back, and I urgently need to replenish energy.

But the little dragon on the table didn't intend to let Alai go. He closed his eyes and flapped his wings unconsciously, and then his shadow flashed and disappeared under Alai's nose.

The scene in front of him stunned Alai who was about to cook. He quickly scanned the table, from the scattered fresh fruits on the table, to the white porcelain bone plate with leftover cheese, and to the A large plate full of food piled up in front of De...

He didn't see Xiaolong anywhere, so he bent down to see if Xiaolong accidentally fell off the table just now, but the bottom of the table was also empty.

"Ned, did you see Xiaolong? He suddenly disappeared!" Alai asked Ned eagerly while searching for the pile of ingredients left on the table.

Ned, who was eating happily, raised his head from the lamb chops, blinked, and his face was written: What are you talking about?

A Lai held his forehead and let out a silent cry.He is really stupid, what's the use of asking Ned, he basically doesn't notice anything when he eats, even if the world is going to perish in the next second, he will have to finish eating what is in his mouth in this second Besides.

"Anyway, you swallow what's in your mouth first, the little dragon is gone, try to find it with your sensor." Alai explained the matter clearly in a few words, and asked Ned to help find the little dragon with the unique keen sense of the dragon clan.

The space he built is only that big. As long as Xiaolong is still there, Ned should be able to sense it.Thinking of this, Ah Lai calmed down instead.

On the other side, Xiaolong, who was about to fall asleep, was lying on the soft sofa cushion in a daze. He didn't know why he changed the place suddenly. He raised his head and tried to sniff... Mom, mom is gone!

Suddenly, a series of meaningless "beeps and beeps" came from the living room.

Ned and Alai looked at each other, and they strode towards the living room next door, and found Xiaolong who was humming vigorously among a pile of pillows.

Alai hurried forward two steps, holding up the little dragon stuck in the cushion with both hands.

"Hey, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah)." Xiaolong flicked his tail, rubbing against his fingers, and uttered a series of milky voices.

"What is he talking about this time?" Alai asked Chao Nide, who was full of question marks.

"Uh... I probably didn't say anything, I was just crying." Ned guessed, reaching out and touching the little dragon's back covered with fine dragon scales.

Probably because he smelled Ned, or because he was simply tired from crying, he yawned, stretched his small light gray paws forward, and stretched his tail straight, just like that in the palm of Alai's hand. Fell asleep.

He was snoring, his tail was curled inwards, his wings were slightly folded on one side, and the other side was covering his head.If Alai still remembered the appearance of the dragon-shaped Ned when he fell asleep, he would definitely be surprised at their actions and demeanor as if they were carved out of a mold.

"Are you asleep?" Alai asked in a low voice, raising his hands stiffly, not knowing what to do with the snoring little dragon in his palm.Do you want to let go?What if it disappears again?But if he didn't let go of the weight and lifted it for a few minutes, his hand would be useless.

Seeing Alai's embarrassment, Ned stretched out his hand with a natural expression, gently took Xiaolong from his hand, and lowered his voice: "I'll just take care of him."

Then he added a sentence seemingly unintentionally: "Go and eat first, you haven't eaten since morning."

Alai looked up at Ned in surprise, and saw that he was staring at the little dragon in his hand with reddish ears, his golden eyes were half covered by the drooping eye feathers, like the unscrupulous golden awns in summer, which can make people bask in the sun. change.

Alai's cheeks suddenly turned red for some reason, the unbalanced heartbeat came back, and his head was dizzy and lacked oxygen.

Until the sound of 'gurgling' came from his stomach, Ah Lai came back to his senses and covered his stomach with one hand... The feeling just now must be that he was too hungry.

They sat back at the dining table again, and Alai simply ordered a pot of three delicacies small wontons, shared most of them with Ned, and ate them slowly with a white porcelain spoon.

Although the quick-frozen wontons are boiled in plain water, they are delicious when you are hungry.A Lai added a small spoonful of chili oil to the clear soup, mixed in a soft-boiled egg, and ate a mouthful of it, finally calming his rumbling spleen and stomach.

"In the case of Xiaolong just now, he must have used space magic unintentionally, right?" After eating most of the bowl, Alai slowed down, and finally freed himself to think about what happened just now.

"Probably yes, I think that's probably how he came here. The magic went berserk unintentionally, and somehow connected to your space. But... cubs that can activate magic while still in the egg are indeed very rare , it can be seen that his talent is very high." Ned said slowly and in a low voice.

His eating speed is several times faster than that of Alai. He has already finished eating the leftover wontons in the pot, and dealt with the remaining fruits and cheese. Casually stroking the little dragon cub who was sleeping on the table.

"Wouldn't it be that he will disappear at any time? Don't his parents know this?" Alai asked worriedly.

"It's possible that it's his first time to activate magic, and no one knows the specific situation." Ned replied.

"Then is there any way to stop him from using this magic temporarily? If he does it again, maybe he will be transported to some dangerous place?" Alai asked again.

"Hmm... If you stop it forcibly, it may affect his magic development, but you can put a magic mark on him, so that even if he goes somewhere else, you can follow him as long as you open the door. After all, you The magic is very similar." Ned thought for a while and suggested to Alai.

As if he didn't expect Ned to come up with such a reliable solution, Alai was stunned for a moment, then put down his spoon and patted Ned's generous shoulder: "That's right! Ned, I'm impressed with you."

"Hey... you underestimated me, okay? I'm also a black dragon." Ned said calmly, with a smile on his lips and his invisible tail flicking happily.

"You mean black dragon? Are all of you black dragons born with space magic?" Alai used magic to set the coordinates for the little dragon, then took a sip of the soup again and asked curiously.

"It's about the same, but different types of dragons have different magic skills. Of course, there are some who don't know magic but are especially good at fighting. Like me and this little guy, we are both black dragons, so the magic we know is more or less related to the space system. .For example, my magic was awakened when I was born, and I used to unconsciously stuff the things around me into the space, do you want to see? I should be able to dig out the things I used when I was a child."

Ned explained in a rare way, he moved closer to Ah Lai, wagging the invisible tail behind him.I was a little happy that his 'partner' was curious about the magical attributes of the dragon race. Although it was for Xiaolong, this was a good opportunity to introduce him to his race.

"Is...really? We have to go to the fourth district later, let's see next time." Alai smiled while eating wontons. He didn't expect Ned to respond so enthusiastically. It seems that he should know more occasionally in the future. hit him.

"Okay then." Ned muttered, knowing that now is not the time to do these things.He held his face in his hands, stared at Alai who was eating without blinking, and patiently waited for him to finish eating.

Under Ned's scorching gaze, Alai finished eating the wonton at a faster speed. He put the bowl into the old magic washing machine, wiped his mouth, and signaled that he was ready to go.
