Chapter X

At the other end of the woods on the edge of the town, two sturdy figures walked along. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 Seeing the comer, Uncle Zhong hurriedly pressed Long Xiang's body and ordered: "No matter what happens later, don't come out, and you must remember all my actions later, as well as the person opposite." ”

"He's supposed to be there." One of the slightly shorter men said. Through the moonlight, Long Xiang could see that the person who spoke was not wearing a night suit, but a green shirt, a Chinese face, a broad forehead, squinting eyes, rosacea, thick lips, and a prominent double bottom.

Uncle Zhong stood up, and Long Xiang hurriedly hid. Uncle Zhong said to the two people, "Don't look for it, I'm here." ”

Next to the short one is a tall one, about one meter eighty-five, with a delicate appearance, white and clean. Because of the tall man standing a little behind, Long Xiang was not able to see his face carefully. The tall man immediately straightened up the moment Uncle Zhong came out, and Long Xiang even saw the short man take a step back slightly, and his expression was very nervous.

"Don't be so afraid of me, I'm not the same person I used to be, and I won't pose any threat to you." Uncle Zhong looked at the nervous expressions of the two of them, and they were a little funny.

The tall man reacted at this time, and said disdainfully to the person next to him: "What are you afraid of, he is only one person today, and he has long been removed from the Cooking Association, and the past five years have almost been wasted." ”

"I'll show you this." After Gao Yi finished speaking, he held two flints and steels in his hands and threw them at the weeds next to him, and the flints smashed on the stones, and the sound of "bang" ignited the dead leaves next to them, illuminating their place, and the dazzling flash made Long Xiang a little unbearable.

The moment the flames bloomed, the two untied the black cloth tied to their arms. A golden light shone, Long Xiang saw that the two of them were each embroidered with a palm-sized badge on their arms, two golden dragons surrounded the side, the badge was embroidered with a kitchen knife and spoon, standing crossed, below was a golden pot, and at the bottom was written a ground character.

Uncle Zhong's eyes narrowed, and his heart was awe-inspiring: a prefecture-level chef.

"Li Zhong, back then, you were the first person in our generation to become a prefecture-level chef, known as a genius in the culinary world, and now a genius, do you dare to come out to see us in a night suit?"

"Yes, when you left Longyang, we were just two-star chefs, and your master once said in front of us that more than a dozen of us are not as powerful as you alone, so what do you think now?" The short man and the tall man said indignantly.

When Long Xiang heard these two people talking, he knew that as early as five years ago, Uncle Zhong was already a prefecture-level chef, and he was a hot and sought-after figure in major restaurants.

When Uncle Zhong heard these two mention his master, he said with some shame: "Pan Sheng, Gao Ya." It was just my master's drunken gaffe, how can I take it seriously. The two of you are talented and hardworking, and it is definitely a matter of time before you become a prefecture-level chef. ”

Uncle Zhong is now suppressing the anger in his heart, and he is almost full of shame when he says these words!

Pan Sheng is short, and Gao Ya is tall. The two of them, Uncle Zhong, as well as more than a dozen of their peers, once interned together at Longyang Restaurant, and then successfully passed the chef examination through the recommendation of Longyang Restaurant.

However, Longyang Restaurant was only responsible for recommending back then, and it could not guarantee that all the trainees would stay. When more than a dozen people passed, only Uncle Zhong was left behind, and the rest of the people took the paperwork of the Cooking Association and started looking for jobs again, which is why Li Zhong was the first person in their group to become a prefecture-level chef.

Unexpectedly, after not seeing each other for five years, these two people broke through the shackles and became prefecture-level chefs in one fell swoop, almost on par with Uncle Zhong.

A few days ago, when Uncle Zhong went out of town to look for ingredients, he was accidentally bumped into by these two people, Uncle Zhong couldn't dodge and was recognized, and finally Uncle Zhong had to get rid of it, but the two of them made an appointment to meet in Longyang Forest today.

Years of long-standing grudges and hatreds may be resolved tonight.

classmates, fortunes, downfall, disintegration, betrayal, pursuit, and finally all are silent. There are only these few words that can be summed up between the three of them.

"I don't need to explain, it's too late to say this." Pan Sheng didn't care about Uncle Zhong's explanation, and then said: "When Longyang was disbanded, you were also homeless, and the major restaurants in Fujian Province even offered sky-high prices to invite you to come back, but I didn't expect you to disappear, it's a pity!" ”

There was not much time, and Uncle Zhong didn't want to say much, so he said bluntly: "You two have traveled thousands of miles from the provincial capital, shouldn't it be to find me, just say anything directly." ”

Pan Sheng Gaoya glanced at each other, and did not continue to hide it, and said straight to the point: "Of course we didn't come to this poor country to find you, although I don't know why you are here, it's just a coincidence that I met you, but by the way, I have a grudge in my heart." ”

"Since the two of us became prefecture-level chefs, we haven't had time to meet a competent opponent for a long time, and when we meet you today, we will be practicing our skills." Gao Ya mocked, in fact, the two of them also became prefecture-level chefs by luck half a month ago, and at this time, no other prefecture-level chefs were looking for them, and there was no one-star chef who was not long-sighted to challenge them.

The appearance of Uncle Zhong is an opportunity, an opportunity to help them truly become prefecture-level chefs, as long as they defeat Li Zhong's opponents for many years, then they can break through the biggest obstacle in their hearts and consolidate their strength as prefecture-level chefs!

Uncle Zhong knew the intention of the two, so he unloaded the burden behind him and spread it out to reveal the ham that was about twenty catties in size, as well as more than a dozen kinds of bottles and cans.

"Since you're going to fight, you won't come empty-handed, right?" Uncle Zhong stared at the two people in front of him.

Gao Ya and Pan Sheng are also people who know the goods, even through the dim flames, they can see that Uncle Zhong's Jinhua ham is an excellent quality, flowing water-shaped bamboo leaves, exuding bursts of aroma, the skin is in the firelight next to it, pouring out bursts of reflection, the legs are full, the color is distinct, and the year is eight to ten years.

"Sure enough, there are three catties of nails in the rotten boat, and even some restaurants may not be able to take them out!" Pan Sheng exclaimed, "However, how about you have seen this? ”

Pan Sheng's thick right hand slammed to the ground, and Long Xiang felt that the trees around him kept shaking, and he didn't expect that this fat man's strength was so great, and half of his arm was directly submerged in the dirt. Long Xiang was stunned, this soil was not the silt by the river, but the hard soil mixed with gravel, this Humpty Dumpty suddenly stretched his arm into it, it seemed that this strength was not ordinary.

"Up." Pan Sheng let out a loud shout, and took out a half-meter-high black jar from the soil, and the mouth of the altar was sealed with a red cloth wrapped in soil, and it was impossible to see what it was.

Gao Ya also took out a small red box from his arms, with thirty-two small dark compartments on all sides.

"Ruyi box?" Although Pan Sheng's performance was very attractive, in Uncle Zhong's opinion, it was a monkey, and the small red box that Gao Ya took out attracted Uncle Zhong's attention.

Gao Ya liked Uncle Zhong's expression very much, and said: "It's not just that you can come up with good things, this wishful box is no more than three in the entire Fujian Province, today is facing you, if it is anyone else, I will not take it out." ”

"And this." Pan Sheng added with a smile on the side, and then opened the lid of the black jar, and a strong smell of seafood instantly filled the entire forest, causing Long Xiang's index finger to move, and he almost got up to see what was inside.

The aroma in the jar also caused a commotion in the forest, and at first some animals were already ready to move to this side, but Uncle Zhong didn't know what spice to take out from the bottle in front of him, and quickly reconciled, thinking that the sky would be scattered, and when the dust settled, after a while, the sound of rustling in the air was much less.

"There's no need to use such a big battle against me, right?" Although Uncle Zhong doesn't know what this jar is, looking at this effect, it is no worse than the wishful box.

"This is also the first time we have used this, so I will use you to sacrifice the flag." Pan Sheng said in a hurry, but Gao Ya frowned and snorted, Pan Sheng knew that he was talking too much, so he didn't say anything anymore.

Gao Ya's strength is a little higher than Pan Sheng's, this time it is Pan Sheng who will face Uncle Zhong, so that Gao Ya can make a judgment from above, know whether there is a gap between himself and Uncle Zhong, and it can be regarded as preserving his strength and preserving his physical strength for the next big battle.

Ruyi box is a great artifact in the culinary world, there are a few of the eight major cuisines in the country, just how many, including eight Su and seven, although the Beijing department is not in the eight major cuisines, but there are the most places with this thing, as many as fifteen, in other places are rare, but in Beijing is a bit like a bad street, there is no other reason, just because the headquarters of the Cuisine Association is located in the place of Beijing.

Its function is to be able to load a large number of spices, because it is made of four different temperature materials, and it is sealed and embedded together with its ultra-superb technology, which can ensure that all kinds of seasonings can be perfectly preserved in different places and at different temperatures, so as not to cause the failure of cooking because of seasonings, so it is called the wishful treasure chest of the culinary industry.

And Pan Sheng's jar is also the reward given to him by the Wuliu Immortal Pavilion of the restaurant where he is located after he became a prefecture-level chef, called the Lock Immortal Altar, whose function is to keep all the ingredients in it fresh for a long time and will not deteriorate due to time and temperature; And the longer it is placed, the impurities in the ingredients will be forced out little by little, and the essence of the ingredients will be more fragrant and rich, just like just now.

In the meantime, the world is not envious. That's what this jar is all about.

This Pan Sheng and Gao Ya took out two magic weapons at once, both of which are top-level things in the culinary world; On the other hand, Uncle Zhong's side is still the same wrapped thing, except for the ten-year-old ham, that thing is just an ordinary thing in Pan Shenggaoya's eyes, which is worthy of the eye.

It seems that Uncle Zhong is a little hanging today!
