Beasts start from stone

However, to replicate Mapo Tofu, you need some ingredients. When Hazel just passed by, she took a look at the kitchen and saw that there was basically nothing in it.

It's getting late now, and it's no longer time to go out for shopping.If possible, let's go see if there is a food market here tomorrow.

Inquiring about information is not something that can be done in just one or two days, and the rooms here will definitely continue to be occupied in the future.

In addition, when Wan Le met, he gave himself four gold coins just because of his status as a fellow villager. If he could be of help, then he would definitely try his best.

Thinking of this, Hazel wiped away her tears and secretly winked at her friends while trying to comfort Wan Le's emotions.

"Brother Wan, maybe they are not used to the food here. The food in Longhua is indeed a bit heavier than here."

"We were barely surviving on tree fruits outside the city, and Jennifer even ate poisonous agouti to leave food for us."

"We have never eaten such good food. It is normal that we are not used to it for the first time. Don't take it too seriously."

Although Wan Le was slightly angry, he was a good bird.

Although Hazel's expression was suppressed just now, her acting skills were too immature and exaggerated.

As an inn owner, how could I not capture this moment's expression, how could I not see through Hazel's lies.

It’s just that this Mapo Tofu is indeed only praised by bird monsters, but Jennifer, the chicken, actually finds it unpalatable?
Sure enough, this Mapo Tofu has some shortcomings, and Hazel has already tasted them.

It's a pity that he doesn't ask for help, and the recipe is something that can make a living, which is different from vulgar money.

Even if they were fellow villagers, they would not be able to give it to themselves so easily. If Wan Le valued it by himself, if he had the recipe, he would not sell it for a thousand gold.

Although this little girl said she wanted to help, she probably just cut vegetables or something.

"Haw."

"It's okay, how could I be angry about something like this."

"My mapo tofu is quite popular with pet birds, so I subconsciously thought Jennifer would also like it."

"By the way, I suddenly remembered that some places selling dangerous goods in the city are only open to monsters with associations."

"It's a good idea to register for an association badge if you can."

"My suggestion is to register with the Druid Club where the Queen belongs. Although the exam is very strict, no monster will dare to stop you even with the lowest badge."

"Not only is there no entrance fee, but when you meet the Queen, you will also win the Queen's favor."

"Even if she doesn't have the energy to send you home, with the Queen's wisdom, she can definitely come up with a better way."

After that, Wanle lost two keys on the table.It was a black wooden key. The teeth of the key were not flat, but had complex shapes.

"Haw."

"Don't break the keys to Tianzi No. 12 and Tianzi No. [-]."

"I still need to check the ledger, so you can take your time.

Hazel waved her hand at Wan Le's departure.

"Goodbye Brother Wan."

(It seems that the lock of the room is also made by the mortise and tenon technique, and...)
"Jennifer, can you taste the beany smell?"

"Chickens shouldn't be able to taste this kind of taste."

Jennifer showed a frustrated expression, but she didn't expect that the little lady had been treating him like a chicken.

"Oh."

"I can basically taste all the flavors. Don't think of me as an ordinary angry chicken."

"Kri."

"Indeed, the Dream Species cannot be viewed simply by its appearance."

"Nan Nan~"

"Arthur, this is the first time you haven't contradicted Jennifer."

"Kri."

"I won't make trouble unreasonably."

While Arthur and Alger were arguing, Jennifer pushed both keys in front of Hazel.

"You are this?"

"Oh."

"Little miss, you haven't forgotten that I'm just passing by with you. I was going to buy some goods."

Jennifer wiped off the oil star on the table and slowly preened her feathers.

It was getting late, and Jennifer had been driving with her all afternoon. Hazel kindly made some suggestions:
"Aren't you going to sleep so late? It's better to take a rest."

Although this is a city, it is definitely more dangerous at night, and besides, Jennifer did sleep at night before.

"Oh."

"There are monsters that travel at dawn and stay at night, and naturally there are also those that stay during the day and emerge at night."

"Some products are only available at night, so you can't miss them."

"Look, what am I?"

Jennifer opened the badge on her chest. It was a small and exquisite solid gold badge.

The pattern above is made up of two semicircles, one large at the top and one small at the bottom. The missing parts of the small circle are made up of white clouds and dark clouds.

There is a seven-layer circle embedded in the middle between the upper circle and the lower circle, which is filled with various obscure symbols.The remaining parts are replaced by various monsters.

"Kri?"

"The gold medal of the Alchemy Society? I heard that not many of these have been minted."

Arthur was a little uneasy. The authority of this gold medal is to consume a certain amount of precious metals every month. It is the most precious thing of the Alchemy Society and its value is immeasurable.

"Don't you hate the Alchemy Society? This badge..."

With Jennifer's temperament, this badge may not come easily.

"Oh."

"The three people who came to me that day came to see me because they got into my stomach, so their teacher came to see me. I thought this thing was quite eye-catching, so I took it over to play with."

"While the moonlight is beautiful, it's natural to go to the Alchemy Society for a visit, right? Don't worry, I won't tell your name."

Jennifer said the terrible words lightly and added:

"Besides, who said I don't sleep?"

He closed his eyes, snake tail coiled around his neck, and opened his eyes. The green eyes looked even greener in the night.

Even though her eyes were closed and her mouth was not closed, Jennifer's cock mouth was still talking, which looked quite weird.

"You didn't expect me to be like this. It's convenient to have four eyes."

After saying that, Jennifer changed back to her original appearance and shook her head proudly.

"Oh."

"It's a pity that Snake Eyes can hardly see behind me. It would be terrible if I was attacked by someone."

"As for how to divide the rooms, you can discuss it."

Jennifer didn't bother to waste any more words and strode out of the inn.

"Kri."

"I'm a little envious of the dream species. They are born with power."

"Nan Nan."

"But you should also be able to gain more power through evolution. The Dream Seed can't use the Magic Stone."

"Kri."

"Dream species are born with powerful instincts. I don't even know what my instincts are."

"Nan Nan."

"Instinct will discover it sooner or later, and the dream species can't use the magic stone."

"Kru."

"I feel like Jennifer she can even be active day and night."

"Nan Nan."

"I think even if you can rest physically, you will be mentally tired. And the Dream Seed can't use the Magic Stone."

Alger was obviously much more active after embarking on the journey. Could it be that he had also traveled around before?

Just with this statement, Arthur felt that he was playing the piano a little bit.

But looking at Alger's not-so-smart head, Arthur also understood that Alger was trying to comfort himself, but he couldn't think of anything else to say.

"Tell me, how should we divide this room?"

Originally, four people could live in two rooms and share them casually, but now that there are only three people, there will naturally be an extra single room.

"Nan Nan."

"Arthur and I will share a room, and you, young lady, will share a room alone?" Alger tentatively made some suggestions.

They got together because of Hazel, so of course they have to take more care of the little lady.

"Kri."

"I want to live with the little lady. The quilt here is just a layer of cotton at best, and my feathers can't keep me warm."

"It's almost autumn. Although the wooden house is relatively warm, the room must be ventilated."

"For the sake of the little lady's health, it's better to stay with me."

Arthur felt that her idea was quite thoughtful, and she couldn't help but raise her neck, revealing her graceful curves.

"Wouldn't this bother you too much?"

Hazel was a little worried. In this case, Arthur might not be able to sleep well.

"Kri."

"Actually, I want to sleep on your warm belly more than getting up. When I was at Jennifer's house, my feet were shaking with cold."

"If you don't mind how heavy I am, please let me live with you."

The weight of the Blue Water Swan is indeed heavier than that of a thick quilt, but if divided between the two wings, it actually doesn't weigh much.

But the feet of the Blue Water Swan will not feel cold even if they are soaked in the winter lake water.

"Actually, you can sleep better with the quilt."

Hazel nodded and accepted Arthur's kindness.

"Kri."

"Then it's settled."

Arthur pushed one of the keys to Alger.

The moment he received the key, many images suddenly flashed through Alger's mind.

That was when he followed his master in the past.

The master holds a very high position in the Meteor Star Cult and is the deputy to one of the seven top leaders.

In the past, when I traveled with my master and that adult, the kind adult would always take special care of me and book four rooms.

Although it is said that the distinction between master and slave is better, that adult has tamed six A-class ones.

Among them was a bluestone giant, who nicknamed him Big Stone.

He and his master were in a separate room, the big stone was in a room, and then the master was in a room with the other pets.

I once went to see it secretly, and the room was so crowded.

Because the main personnel of the Meteor Star Cult gradually increased, the adult could no longer afford to talk so much just relying on entrustment, so he changed his job.

He entrusted the big stone to the owner's care, and handed over the others to other senior officials.

This also implements his moral principles since he founded the Meteorite Cult.

But his master actually violated the rules set by him and became a kidnapper.

The reason for all this is that he is too weak.

The power of the Blue Fire Pumpkin cannot be compared with that of the Meteor Beast, which even drags down the owner.

He was ridiculed by other deputies, which made the master blindly trust the ancient book.

[The promotion of the king will increase the qualifications of his ministers. 】

It was all because he was weak, so the master believed the ancient book, betrayed him, and hurt Hazel.

Alger remembered everything except Hazel's real name.

"Nan Nan."

"I'm sorry, little lady. I suddenly remembered it."

"The master will hurt you in order to use luck as bait to trap the Crystal Crane."

"Because he got a page from an ancient book, which records that when his qualifications are improved, the qualifications of his servants will also be improved."

"It's all because I was too weak that the master went on the wrong path, so I hope you can forgive the sins the master committed. It's all because of me."

Alger rolled up his face with his cloak. He was a little embarrassed to see Hazel.

"Kri."

"We have similar legends here."

"The knight who receives his name and heart from his lord will become stronger as his lord prospers."

"Since your master offended you because you were too weak, then you should follow the little lady to atone for your sins."

“It’s just that once a crime is committed, it is unforgivable.”

Arthur's voice was suddenly as cold as the cold wind, and she stared at Alger, as if she wanted to see something from it.

Hazel looked at Arthur nervously, feeling a little panicked.

"But I don't remember this incident. Besides, it's too unreasonable for the knight to bear the responsibility for the sin committed by the master."

"Alger, you will still go to the Royal Capital with me, right?"

"On the journey to the royal city, you will definitely become stronger."

"If you can be strong enough to make your master stop worrying, then he will definitely go astray."

"Only when you go back can you persuade your master to do good, right?"

Hazel's heart became more and more nervous, maybe Alger was leaving now.

"Kri."

"It doesn't matter how you and the master are doing. You have to talk about that kind of thing later after you go back."

"It's getting late, and I'm sleepy too. It's time for me to go to bed, little lady. We are both day monsters, and we can't stay up late to accompany you."

After saying that, Arthur pulled Hazel and ran upstairs.

Alger picked up the key and looked at it blankly.

The ones on the first floor are all common shops, and the ones with Tiandi brands are all upstairs.

The key in Hazel's hand was to room No. 12. Before she could see the furnishings on the second floor, Arthur hurriedly urged Hazel to open the door and pushed her in.

"Kri."

"It's time to take a moment to calm down."

"But it's not good for you to just leave Alger there to calm down."

Hazel was still thinking about Alger, Arthur frowned and said:

"I mean you, it's time to calm down."

"Eh?"

Hazel looked at Arthur nervously. Did she do something wrong?
"Kri."

"Little miss...you..."

Arthur thought for a moment and decided to use a gentler tone.

"You have been uneasy ever since you learned that your partner was missing."

"I know that partner is very important to you, but except for Alger, Jennifer and I are all people who met you halfway. We are all monsters attracted by your charm."

"I'm not the type who's good at preaching. I can't instill any useful beliefs at all."

"So get some rest, Hazel."

Arthur pushed Hazel onto the bed. As she expected, although this was the best room in Meno City, the quilt was not thick enough to keep warm under ventilation conditions.

"Arthur."

"Kri?"

"If I can cheer up, you will continue to travel with me, right?"

"Kru."

"Even if you can't cheer up, I will accompany you to meet the queen. This is the knight's promise."

"Arthur, good night."

"Kru."

……

On the other side, Alger was also lying on the bed.

"Nan Nan."

"I'm being taken care of again."

No matter how I write these two chapters, they feel separated, so I simply wrote them together.
