Julian looked at the Yangzhou fried rice in front of him and frowned. He looked hesitant.
He couldn't remember how long it had been since he last ate meat. 30 years? Or 50 years? Or was it when he was 20 years old and saw a group of ogres eating an entire village of villagers?
Although those disgusting fellows were frozen into ice by him in the end, many years later, he still killed his way to the Ogre Tribe on Demon Island and almost exterminated the entire Ogre Tribe.
But that scene was still replaying in his mind even after 100 years. He still felt uncomfortable when he saw meat.
But strangely, when he saw the ham in the Yangzhou fried rice today, he didn't feel uncomfortable at all. The aroma of eggs mixed with the smell of other ingredients made him feel restless.
One had to know that he usually ate plain boiled vegetables. Occasionally, he would boil an egg, which was already considered a meat dish. He couldn't bear to see a trace of meat or fish. Facing such a plate of oily eggs mixed with all kinds of messy ingredients, he actually had the idea of eating it, which made him feel a little incredulous.
He followed Crassus into the restaurant because he didn't want to be close to Amy before Crassus could.
"Do you want to try it?" Julian hesitated.
"Boss! Another plate of Yangzhou fried rice! Your Yangzhou fried rice is so delicious! " A young man sitting next to him put down his spoon. He had already finished his plate of Yangzhou fried rice, and his face was full of satisfaction.
"Okay, please wait a moment," Yabemiya replied with a smile and turned to enter the kitchen.
"Is it really that good?" Julian glanced at the young man. There wasn't even a grain of rice left on the plate. It was as if the plate had been licked clean.
"Master Turtle Shell, don't you like rainbow fried rice?" Amy looked at Julian and asked doubtfully.
"That guy can't eat meat. I guess he hasn't tasted meat for 100 years." Crassus, who had already eaten half a bowl of Yangzhou fried rice, looked at Julian with pity. He knew a little about what happened in the past. He was also on the Demon Islands when the Cannibals were exterminated. Most of the survivors who escaped died at his hands.
He did not hate demons, but there was no need for demons that specialized in feeding on humans to survive in this world. Even if the race war ended, those guys would definitely not stop.
The battle between ice and fire had attracted a lot of attention on the Norland Continent. Everyone thought that the two of them were sworn enemies who would kill each other as soon as they met. However, how many people knew that the two of them had worked together to do a few things that no one knew about? The annihilation of the ogres had always been an unsolved mystery.
"If you can't eat meat, you'll be so pitiful." Amy looked at Julian pitifully.
"Who said I can't eat meat!" Being looked at with pity by Julian and Amy, Julian's blood boiled. He grabbed the spoon next to him, and dug a spoonful from the middle. When he reached his mouth, he stopped.
The tantalizing aroma wafted into his nose. Julian's appetite had been awakened by the delicious bowl of tofu pudding. He looked at Amy, who was full of expectation, and gritted his teeth. He opened his mouth and ate the fried rice.
"How can it taste like this?! Meat can be so delicious! " Julian's eyes widened. The egg wrapped around the rice almost melted in his mouth. After biting into the ham that had been marinated for many years, the savory and fragrant gravy flowed out. Julian, who could not remember the taste of meat at all, felt all his taste buds awaken at once. They were cheering and welcoming the return of their king.
Although they were only a few grains of rice, the deep and special taste shocked Crassus like never before. It awakened the strongest feeling in the depths of his heart.
He suddenly remembered something. Before that incident, he was a person who couldn't be without meat.
In addition to the ham, the shrimp mixed with the freshness of the sea, the rice-sized mushrooms, winter bamboo shoots, and chives. The taste was so delicious and harmonious that it brought wave after wave of taste buds that had been dormant for a long time to the top of the clouds.
What surprised him even more was the faint fragrance of the Spring of Life contained in the rice. Those who had never tasted the Spring of Life might think it was just some kind of seasoning, but he had tasted it before. He just didn't expect Meg to be able to get his hands on the Spring of Life and add it to the dish just like that.
"Ah …" Julian couldn't help but exclaim after swallowing a mouthful of Yangzhou fried rice. His attention was completely attracted by the bowl of Yangzhou fried rice in front of him. He scooped another spoonful into his mouth, one mouthful after another. He couldn't stop at all.
"Turtle Grandpa seems to be eating very happily. He doesn't seem to dislike it." Amy also smiled.
"I can only say that Mr. Mak's food is too delicious." Crassus was also a little surprised. He didn't expect that Julian, who had never eaten meat, would really eat the Yangzhou fried rice with ham in it. And from the looks of it, he was completely addicted to it.
But on second thought, when he was in Rodu, he could only eat half a bowl of rice. After coming here, he had two bowls of Yangzhou fried rice for every meal, which was the same as Julian's.
Ding!
The spoon touched the plate and made a soft sound. Julian was stunned for a moment. Then he realized that he had finished the Yangzhou fried rice.
He actually finished a bowl of food with meat in it!
And he didn't feel any nausea after eating it. He even had the urge to eat another bowl.
Julian didn't know how many years he hadn't had this feeling. His heart couldn't help but beat faster. He couldn't help but look at the roujiamo on the side.
This was also a dish he had never seen before. The white bread was cut in the middle and stuffed with minced meat. When Julian first saw this dish, he rejected it in his heart. It was too greasy and full of meat.
But after eating the Yangzhou fried rice, he suddenly had a strong desire for meat. The minced ham in the Yangzhou fried rice couldn't satisfy him anymore. This roujiamo was obviously more suitable.
This taste … Will it be different from the meat I ate before? Julian was a little hesitant as he reached for the roujiamo. The rich aroma of the braised meat wafted to his face. It was indeed different from the ham, but it was just as tempting. He couldn't help but take a bite.
Some braised meat sauce had seeped into the soft bai ji bread. It was sweet with a little salty taste. The soft braised meat almost melted in his mouth. Although it was a mixture of fat and lean meat, it didn't feel greasy at all. The rich sauce oozed out of the meat and completely ignited the restless taste buds. It was like a carnival. The aroma of the meat wreaked havoc in his mouth, and then turned into a violent breath that rushed into his body.
"Ah …" Julian couldn't help but let out a long sigh. Looking at the roujiamo in his hand, his eyes lit up. His blood was gushing, and his heart was beating wildly.
This was the feeling of being young. At that time, he also liked to run around in a white robe, thinking that he was a righteous and lucky magician, a hero.
