Chapter 119: Solving the Puzzle

Qian Shi looked at Bai Yiyi's worried look and smiled: "It's just an ingredient lottery, although the ingredient of water rhyme melon is relatively unfavorable, but I have already thought of some methods, I believe that I will pass the first round of the general test." ”

Li Cai immediately smiled when he heard this: "That's it, how can this ingredient of Ququ water rhyme melon stump you, but the ingredients of this wild bull beast of mine have to think about it carefully, I really don't know what kind of food to cook." As he spoke, he hooked his shoulders and Qian Shi, and Sun Jiuwei and a few people walked to the sidelines.

Bai Yiyi also smiled lightly when he heard Qian Shi say this: "Now we have two days to rest, and we can take this opportunity to find some ingredients and special condiments that we need." ”

Qian Shi said: "Well, yes, we still have to deal with the first round of the general test, the cooking competition is not like the appreciation of ingredients, every step forward will get a lot of points." ”

"The first round of the test should not be too difficult, but the third round of the test may be changed. ”

Qian Shi was puzzled: "Yiyi, why do you say that?" Several other people in the same group also looked at Bai Yiyi curiously.

Bai Yiyi said: "There are nearly 700 apprentices and disciples who participated in the cooking competition of Zuixianlou and Pearl Begonia, and the general test is to quickly eliminate some apprentices. ”

Qian Shi also thought about it, and now he was still a little apprehensive about tasting the highly toxic ingredients that he appreciated at that time, and nodded and said: "Well, and the number of shortlisted candidates for promotion has not changed, there are only one hundred and twenty, so don't take it lightly." ”

A few people had already left the venue as they spoke, and today's competition was also completely over in Guo Yang's announcement, and Qian Shi and Gongsun Cailiang also left after reporting some lottery matters.

These two days are a rare time to rest, and the cooking conference has been making people nervous, and all the energy is focused on the competition, but these two days there are few apprentices who go out to hang out, because many people are thinking about the ingredients they have drawn and what dishes they should make to make themselves successful.

And Qian Shi and the others have not gone out in the accommodation arranged by the venue, and even Li Cai, who has always had a good personality, has always been very quiet, after all, the cooking conference is very important to them, and at this time, Qian Shi is also in the room to read the classics of ingredients, although he thought of some ways to change the taste of water rhyme melon, but after all, he has not practiced, he still has to know more, it has been foolproof.

After pondering for a long time, Qian Shi also found that the ingredients of this water rhyme melon are indeed very unsuitable as the main dish, it seems that it can only be used as an appetizer or other cuisines, but there is another headache for Qian Shi, that is, this kind of ingredient is difficult to match with other kinds of ingredients, due to its own characteristics, many of the ingredients that go with it will be affected and become dull.

Now Qian Shi has less confidence in the method he thought of before, lying on the bed and looking out the window in a daze, while muttering to himself: "Water rhyme melon, water rhyme melon ......"

was sorting out his thoughts, but suddenly looked out of the window and his eyes lit up, as if he had thought of something, a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, and he hurriedly got up and took the ingredient box and his own kitchenware and walked out, but as soon as he went out, he saw Sun Jiuwei carrying two golden crispy roast chickens, which looked like two little piglets, fat and fragrant, and a large plate of sushi in the other hand, humming a small song and walking up from downstairs.

Sun Jiuwei looked up and was a little surprised to see Qian Shi going out in such a hurry, and asked out loud: "Eh, Qian Shi, where are you going? I just made some delicious food, all of which are carefully made, and I am about to find a few of you to enjoy them together." ”

Qian Shi looked at Sun Jiuwei's greedy appearance and said with a smile: "You guys go and eat, I'm going to find an ingredient and ingredient to try now." ”

Sun Jiuwei was stunned: "What ingredients do you need, don't you have them here?" If you have any special seasoning ingredients or something, I can find my father, my shop is still very complete." ”

Qian Shi smiled: "Don't bother, I want to find this kind of something special, and it is difficult to store, there will be no one in Dongpo City, I need to go out of the city and into the mountains, and I may not come back soon, fatty, you can help tell Yiyi." After speaking, Qian Shi hurriedly ran out.

Sun Jiuwei looked puzzled, what ingredients did he need, he had to spend so much time, but he still shouted at Qian Shi's departing back: "Oh, I know, then you should be more careful, if there is anything, send someone back to inform us." ”

All the people are preparing for the cooking competition, although the city is also very lively, attracting many people from afar, but there are some missing, that is, the apprentices of the drunken fairy building and the pearl begonia, and the two days passed quickly, and more people from the northern region also came to the Dongpo City and gathered at the kitchen meeting.

At this time, all the participating apprentices of Zuixianlou and Pearl Begonia also arrived in their own field, waiting for the general test of the cooking competition to be held soon, but now there are a few people frowning, Gongsun Cailiang is even more anxious, and from time to time he also orders some people to go out, Bai Yiyi is also anxious at the moment.

And all this is because Qian Shi has not returned, Sun Jiuwei told everyone that Qian Shi went out to look for ingredients, it may take some time, and several people didn't care, but they didn't come back until the game was approaching, but they were all anxious, and now they are all in the waiting area, waiting for the referee team of the Kitchen Conference to prepare, in an hour, the game will officially start, and the apprentices who did not come at that time will be regarded as abstaining and eliminated directly.

Li Cai sighed: "I really don't know where he went, it can't be that something happened, right? ”

When Bai Yiyi heard Li Cai say this, he became even more anxious, and said to Gongsun Cailiang: "Teacher Gongsun, I want to go out to find Qian Shi." ”

Gongsun Cailiang immediately stopped Bai Yiyi and said: "Yiyi, don't worry, nothing will happen to Qian Shi, there are also people from our Drunken Immortal Building around Dongpo City, and I have already sent someone out to look for him, but we don't know his whereabouts, and it is really difficult to find him in a short time." ”

Li Cai also knew that what he said just now was a little inappropriate, and hurriedly said to Bai Yiyi at this time: "Qian Shi's strength is now greatly improved, there will definitely be no danger, it is estimated that the ingredients he wants to find are a little troublesome, I believe he will rush back before the competition, if you also go, it will be more troublesome to stagger with Qian Shi at that time." ”

Bai Yiyi listened to the words and knew that it was reasonable, but he still frowned a little, with a worried look on his face, now all the apprentices who participated in the competition are ready to enter, everyone brought their own kitchen utensils, and at this time Guo Yang's words also came out of the field: "Please note that all participating apprentices, please note that due to the large number of apprentices in the first round of the general examination, we will open three competition venues at the same time. ”

After getting Guo Yang's instructions, the apprentices of Zuixianlou and Pearl Begonia also entered one after another, and just when Bai Yiyi and Gongsun Cailiang were anxious, Qian Shi finally rushed back.

Gongsun Cailiang was overjoyed when he saw Qian Shi, just now he already thought that Qian Shi couldn't come back on time, and sighed secretly in his heart, if Qian Shi didn't have any results in the cooking competition, then he wouldn't be too high on the overall list, and Chenbu would lose the first main disciple, so he rushed up at this moment and grabbed Qian Shi and complained: "Where did you run this kid, it makes us all worry about you, and I thought you couldn't catch up with the cooking competition." ”

Qian Shi smiled: "It's just that there is a kind of matching ingredients, which is a little troublesome and takes some time." ”

Gongsun Cailiang didn't have time to ask too much, and said to Qian Shi: "The apprentices of the morning department have already entered, don't waste time now, hurry up and go to your corresponding competition venue." ”

Qian Shi didn't say much, he trotted all the way down, and at the same time waved his hand in Bai Yiyi's direction, indicating that he was fine, and Bai Yiyi also smiled faintly when he saw that Qian Shi was unharmed, and walked to his own field.

At this time, there are many individual positions in each competition field, just like a small kitchen, all available, many apprentices are already in place, and there is a row of robed people sitting in front, there can be more than ten people, there are men and women, it seems that Qian Shi knows that these are the people of the referee team, and the dishes they make this time must be affirmed by them in order to pass the test.

With the entry of the apprentices, the audience in the stands also cheered, shouting loudly, comparing the competition of ingredient appreciation, this cooking competition is more ornamental, and it is also the highlight of the entire cooking conference, many people have been waiting for this wonderful competition, cooking is the most fascinating on the Tianhua continent, how many people spend their lives only to pursue superb cooking skills, and the audience in the stands today is three more layers than before!

Qian Shi is also in his position at this moment, his face is calm and calm, he has a better way to deal with the ingredient of water rhyme melon, and this time he will definitely give a big surprise to the person who tastes it.

"Fellow apprentices, can you show your skills in the cooking competition and get the applause and recognition of everyone, but it depends on the moment, you can start after receiving the ingredients you have drawn!" A sonorous voice came, as if it was from all sides of the venue.

After getting the instructions, all the participating apprentices took over the ingredients they had drawn, and at the same time took out the kitchen utensils, various cooking skills, and exercises, and began to quickly process the ingredients in their hands, and Qian Shi was also smiling at this time, and put his own ingredient box on the kitchen board.
