In this strange world, there is a strange place called the City That Never Sleeps, where there is no day and no night. Boiling underground rivers run through the city, providing a constant supply of electricity for the entire city. There are countless hot springs in the city, fairy tale movie chic and neat wooden houses, and beautiful girls of different skin colors, dressed lightly, and do not panic when they see strangers, but just cover their lips and smile.

In the center of the city stands a beautiful enamel palace, as an underground building, a majestic scale of nine floors, built in an open space, majestic and majestic, like a giant's garden in a fairytale city, overlooking his territory.

In the spacious square in front of the door, the musical fountain plays cheerful music 24 hours a day, and the rare birds that adventurers have found from all over the world are cut off their wings and released in the square for people to see. Walking along the crimson stone steps of the palace, the resplendent hall is surrounded by a circle of classic paintings from various European historical periods, each of which is a genuine masterpiece.

Li Muye followed Brother Qi Tian into the hall, and at a glance he saw a golden dragon facing the portal, shining in the light. The carving is exquisite, and it looks lifelike, but unfortunately it is not installed with longan.

Qi Di smiled proudly and said, "Brother Li, how is it? Brother didn't lie to you, how do you feel along the way?"

Li Muye took a deep breath without pretentiousness, and nodded solemnly: "If you can thank the master here for not disliking it, Li Mou doesn't plan to leave." ”

Qi Tian said in a deep voice: "Our brother can't be the master of this matter, whether he can stay or not depends on your creation, brother." ”

While talking, the servants came to the elevator entrance, and Li Muye quickly noticed that almost all the furnishings here were golden, and it was not difficult to find that these things were all made of real pure gold!

When the elevator arrived, the servants walked in, Qi Tian pressed a five, and then said: "The tower has nine floors, the master lives on the fifth floor, and it is the meaning of the ninety-five, all the furnishings in this house, even if it is just an inconspicuous garbage can and ashtray, all are pure gold products, our brothers are rich people in the world, but compared with the master here, they are not even beggars, Brother Li, I must remind you, this old gentleman's surname is Huo, and he doesn't like people who tell lies." ”

Qi Di reminded: "You have also seen the situation here, my brother didn't say anything before it, whether he can stay depends on Brother Li's means, although Mr. Huo has always loved talents, but it is not easy for idle characters to enter his old man's eyes, so wait to see him, Brother Li must not have reservations." ”

The elevator goes up to the fifth floor, and when you get out of the elevator, you will come to an extremely spacious place, and as soon as you walk in, you will smell a refreshing and timeless fragrance. It is definitely the smell of agarwood Qinan. Following the taste, I saw a huge wooden eagle with wings spread over three meters wide. The shapes are natural, mostly natural, with only a few traces of chisel engraving.

For Qi Nan, Li Muye heard some from Ye Hong first. Later, I heard some when I listened to Pi Rixiu talk about the Xiangbao Sutra of the Japanese Insect Earth Master.

Lao Ye spent a lot of money to get back a string of beads from Nanyang before, which was made by Qi Nan, and he almost never left his body, which was exactly the same as this taste. Li Muye couldn't help but be secretly surprised when he looked at the huge wood carving, according to what Ye Hong said again, this thing is extremely rare, and the price is tens of times more expensive than gold. It is one of the agarwood, which belongs to the best agarwood, which is called agar in ancient times, and is softer than agarwood.

Usually in a large piece of the best Shen Spice Seeds, only a very small part can be regarded as Qi Nan, which is extremely precious. It's so huge, it can be called priceless, and because I know that its value is rare, I can't help but take a few more looks.

Ordinary people don't know its value, and only use it for spices. In the eyes of the insect master, this thing is one of the rare talents.

The origin of the incense is KitKat, it is a hollow incense tree (dense incense tree species) is nested by ants or wild bees, formic acid, nectar or the stone honey of wild bees, bee paddles are absorbed by the living incense glands of the incense tree, and combined with a special fungus gradually generated. It is used as medicine, mixed with several other strange treasures recorded in the Xiangbao Sutra to refine the pill with the secret method in the door, and give it to the woman, when she is in love, the woman will emit the fragrance, and the man can improve his ability and desire when he smells it. Great for the body.

Compared with Lao Qian's industry, the insect master is a more mysterious and interesting industry in the rivers and lakes. Li Muye can't learn martial arts, but he is quite talented in learning these rivers and lakes, and he can almost understand it at one point. Although Pi Rixiu doesn't have the heart to pass on his art, Brother Xiao Ye has really learned some of the true skills in the Insect Earth Master's portal.

As he was looking at himself, he suddenly heard a familiar old voice say, "Da Qi and Xiao Qi, didn't you two go back to the north? Why did you come back again?" A short and thin old man walked over from the back of the elevator and said to Brother Qi Tian, "What?

Qi Tianbi said respectfully: "Meet Uncle Sen." Pointing at Li Muye, he said: "This is Mr. Li Sanbai, a strange person we met on the way back, thinking that Uncle Sen might be interested in him, so he hurriedly invited him here." ”

"Oh?" Huo Sen nodded slightly at Qi Tian first, then walked over, looked at Li Muye first, and asked with interest: "My friend is from the rivers and lakes, but I don't know which way to make a living?

Lao Huo Sen is worthy of being a master of the rivers and lakes, and an expert knows the depth of the water and the shallowness of the water.

Li Muye didn't dare to slack off, he hurriedly hugged his fists and saluted, and said: "I am a person from the world, I often walk the world, the toads in the field do not go to the yin, and the general with a brush does not use a knife to kill people." ”

This is the old Jianghu people before the Republic of China commonly used the order, the world is the cook, the ancients said that the people take food as the sky, the meaning of the people of the world is to serve the heavens, often walk the world is to go to the kitchen, the last two sentences are to say that their dark profession is the Japanese insect master.

Huo Sen understood, slightly surprised, and looked Li Muye up and down again, hugged his wrist and arched his hand: "It turns out that Brother Li is a person from the third door of high school, it is really disrespectful, now the rivers and lakes are withering, the high art is broken, and there is only one Gao Yuelong left in the line of the Japanese insect master who is still at the top of the Jianghu literary list, but I don't know what Brother Li thinks of him?"

Li Muye said: "In terms of peers, Senior Brother Gao started a few years earlier than me. ”

Huo Sen was even more awe-struck when he heard this, and said: "You people are good at stealing red pills to replenish essence and health regimen, you can't tell your age by looking at your face, but you can see how high and low your Taoism is, Brother Li is how expensive this year?"

"Forty-nine. Li Muye said: "I have been in the rivers and lakes for half my life, and I have achieved nothing when I reach the age of knowing the destiny of heaven, and now it is the time when I can't support people." ”

Huo Sen said: "It's just that you haven't encountered a suitable fate, as far as I know, you have real skills in this business, back then, Gao Yuelong fished for golden ao in three bowls of immortal soup in Taihu Lake, and the octagonal warlocks scrambled to observe, and my brother had the honor to see the means of the Japanese insect master with his own eyes, which is really a miracle skill, but I don't know how much your brother has cultivated?"

That's what school exams mean. From Shandong to Shanxi, the shouting was not real. Whether you have the ability or not can't all depend on shouting, it depends on the real character. The art of the Japanese insect master has always been different from the inside and outside, the outside is the cooking skill, and the inside is the treasure stealing incense and tasting the human insects. It is inconvenient to reveal on the inside, but it is the basic skill of dealing with people on the outside.

When the Yangtze River flooded, a golden ao strayed into the Taihu Lake to make waves, overturned the passing ships and injured countless people, the government fishery department encircled and intercepted the conventional means can not be helpless, and then the news came to the rivers and lakes, attracting a lot of warlocks who know the goods, that day of the insect master Gao Yuelong is the leader, in Taihu Lake out of thin air to take water, no fire to cook soup, with three bowls of fairy soup from the Taihu Lake Wang Bawo will be the head of 100 kilograms of gold Ao fished. It can be described as astonishing and majestic.

But many years later, when the old people who experienced this incident talked about this legend, the first thing that came to mind was the taste of those three bowls of soup.

Since he is a Japanese insect master, this cooking skill must not be bad.

Li Muye thought for a while and said: "Senior Brother Gao's realm is too high, and my brother doesn't dare to compare, but since the old gentleman has asked here, in order to find a place to live, I have to reluctantly sacrifice my ugliness." ”

"Happy!" Huo Sen said, "I don't know what your brother needs me to prepare for you?"

"A fat sheep and a stove of gray charcoal are enough. Li Muye said: "Our industry relies on using taste as a stepping stone, which is the basic skill. ”

Huo Sen smiled: "It seems that the old decay is going to have a good mouth." ”

Things were quickly prepared, and in the backyard of the nine-story enamel tower, Li Muye personally concocted a roasted whole sheep.

How do you show your skills?

Since he is a Japanese insect master, he naturally has to distinguish himself from the methods of those secular cooks. Li Muye was deliberately showy, and after everything was ready, he played an ancient trick called taking water from the air, hiding a little dry ice in the cake-like metal on his body, and taking advantage of his hands to condense a part of the water into ice and hide it in his sleeve. When it is used, it is catalyzed by drugs, resulting in the phenomenon of taking water out of thin air, and finally taking the opportunity to synthesize the powder of purple dragon wood blood into this water and brush it on the sheep.

Other cooks roast whole sheep, from slaughtering to concocting and flavorful barbecue, it often takes several hours to see results, but Li Muye only took 20 minutes to roast a sheep to be charred on the outside and tender on the inside, and the color is golden. The aroma wafted for ten miles.

The smell attracted more onlookers, and Huo Sen did not stop it, and the yard was soon full.

In front of everyone's eyes, Huo Sen, Qi Tian and the others saw it clearly, and they were all amazed. Li Muye took a knife to slice the mutton, but saw that the knife light was flying like snow, and a fat sheep was broken down into pieces of delicious mutton between the slices. Shared with everyone to taste, it was swept away in less than a moment.

Huo Sen also ate a few slices, and was immediately shocked, only to feel that the roast mutton in the past few decades was all eaten in vain, and the taste, heat, and great spiritual pleasure brought by it were simply a fairy taste. At the moment, I couldn't get enough of it, and I was full of praise and said: "Wonderful! It's really a good method!" but I couldn't help but secretly wonder: If this taste can be promoted to my golden account, who is still the opponent of the old man in the European high-end catering industry?

The crowd was still unsatisfied, and the thinly dressed girls coquettished Huo Sen and asked the distinguished guests to concoct another one to satisfy everyone's appetite. Horsen himself rarely moved his index finger. But after all, Li Muye was not a person from the city that never sleeps at this moment, and out of courtesy, he just looked at Li Muye with an inquiring gaze.

"Then please prepare two more sheep!" Li Muye knew that he could stay.

Huo Sen's expression was relieved, and he immediately ordered someone to arrange it, and then his eyes rolled, and he said: "This taste only comes from the sky, how can it be tasted in the world, if Brother Li doesn't dislike it, the old man is willing to open the door for you......"
