Chapter 125: The Snakes
He Jingjing felt very surprised when she saw this rule, how could she put her life into it at any time compared to a competition?
But after thinking about it, who is standing behind this competition, and how much honor and money can the winner get, I am afraid that I don't have to worry about livelihood for the rest of my life.
Moreover, the imperial dining room, the kitchen of the Son of Heaven, who can enter is not a skilled cook, and is particularly good at being a man? To put it bluntly, that kind of place is definitely many times more dangerous than the mountains in the wild.
The person who can come up with this semi-closed method of competition is probably also a very thoughtful person.
Overall, this way of playing is very beneficial for He Jingjing.
And there is another rule in the rules of the game, all the ingredients must be distinguished by themselves, if you can't tell the poisonous ingredients used, you will be eliminated directly.
The reason is very simple, if you can't tell even the most basic whether it is poisonous or not, what does the imperial dining room want you to do?
Those wild mushrooms that grow after the rain may be very bright and beautiful in appearance, or they may be very simple and ordinary-looking.
No matter what they look like, mushrooms are the number one ingredient for making poisons. And toxicity cannot be simply determined based on the appearance of the mushroom alone.
If you don't have a lot of experience in the field and vicious eyes, it is impossible to judge whether those unknown wild mushrooms are poisonous or not.
But mushrooms are an ingredient, and He Jingjing feels that she has to use them. All the seasonings need to be prepared by yourself, and mushrooms are undoubtedly the best thing that can be freshened in the whole mountain.
The sous chef He Jingjing brought this time was Ye Haixuan, which was one of the reasons why Ye Haixuan was able to get up so early and go to the door of He Jingjing's room to wait for He Jingjing to go to the competition site together.
"Hurry up, you won't be able to catch up for a while!" Ye Haixuan urged in front again.
The coachman sent the two to the foot of the mountain and left, and Ruth, who went to the sign office on the mountain, walked by themselves.
He Jingjing's body carried the tools and salutes that he had to use in the past few days, and Ye Haixuan also packed up a lot, and both of them could be regarded as carrying a load.
But the physical strength and strength of girls have never been compared with boys, and the road up the mountain is indeed difficult, He Jingjing is already tired and sweating, but Ye Haixuan is still urging He Jingjing in front like a nobody.
Ye Haixuan deserves to be married yet!
He Jingjing thought so in her heart, and then quickened her pace.
"Remember, all the ingredients have to be from the mountains, and when the judges ask, you have to know where they come from. ”
The person who signed in knew He Jingjing and knew that she was the goddaughter of the prefect, and now she lived in the prefect's mansion, so he kindly reminded her.
After thanking them, He Jingjing and Ye Haixuan left into the mountains.
Now is the time of the summer heat, and He Jingjing feels sweaty and thirsty at the bottom of the mountain.
After entering the densely forested mountains, I was immediately refreshed, the only bad thing was that the forest was too dense, and some places looked dark, and I felt that danger was lurking at any time.
Looking at Ye Haixuan, who was walking forward, He Jingjing was really angry.
"You walked so fast, how could you find the ingredients, we are here to find vegetables, not to exercise!" He Jingjing yelled at Ye Haixuan's back.
Ye Haixuan's footsteps paused, and then he suddenly reacted to what He Jingjing said, and then touched his nose and came to He Jingjing's side.
When I was excited, I forgot about this little girl, which really shouldn't be.
In fact, He Jingjing didn't plan to take Ye Haixuan into the mountains this time, after all, Ye Haixuan couldn't help He Jingjing with anything in cooking, and might even drag He Jingjing down.
Ye Haixuan, as the former young owner of Haixuan Pavilion, grew up shouting golden spoons since he was a child, how could he go to the kitchen? Ye Haixuan can only eat.
He Jingjing had seen Ye Haixuan cooking, and that battle felt that the kitchen might be set on fire at any time, so He Jingjing didn't have any expectations for Ye Haixuan in terms of cooking.
Being able to choose Ye Haixuan was also He Jingjing's helpless move.
After all, in the entire Linzhou Mansion, he really only knows Ye Haixuan, a person who can work. Although his two younger sisters can fight and are nimble, they are still young after all, and it is still quite dangerous to go to this kind of mountain.
The mountain of the competition is not like the small dirt slope of the back mountain that He Jingjing used to go to, this is a real wild mountain.
Abundant products, but dangers lurk.
He Jingjing remembered that Ye Haixuan was also a martial artist after all, and he had a lot of strength, so he could help him in hunting, so he told Ye Haixuan.
Unexpectedly, Ye Dagongzi was actually very talkative, and immediately agreed, which He Jingjing was very grateful to him for.
At the same time as He Jingjing and Ye Haixuan entered the mountain forest, Cai Shishi and her sous chef also came to the sign-in point of the other party.
"It's been so long, and you haven't asked the name of the strong man yet?" Seeing that the name of the sous chef was to be filled in on the form, Cai Shishi asked the person she brought with her a little embarrassment.
"My name is Zhao Hu. The man didn't mind, and replied to Cai Shishi with a smile.
After Cai Shishi signed in, the two entered the mountain forest.
The sous chef Cai Shishi brought this time was the one who came to Cai Shishi and said that he was the Zhong family. Cai Shishi has already figured out how to deal with He Jingjing, as long as Zhao Hu is there, all problems are not a problem.
The sign-in point chosen by Cai Shishi's side soon entered the depths of the jungle, and seeing that the sun was covered by tall and lush trees, Cai Shishi felt a little hairy.
"Miss Cai don't worry, Zhao will definitely protect Miss Cai all the way. Zhao Hu noticed Cai Shishi's small emotions and comforted Cai Shishi.
Cai Shishi thanked Zhao Hu, and then reorganized her mood and continued to move forward.
Suddenly, Cai Shishi felt some movement ahead, and Cai Shishi immediately stopped.
"What's wrong?Miss Cai?" Zhao Hu was a little unclear So, in Zhao Hu's opinion, it is normal to have something turbulent in this kind of forest, and after observing all the way, there should be no large beasts here.
"There seems to be something up ahead. Cai Shishi said to Zhao Hu in a trembling voice, and her legs trembled.
Seeing that Cai Shishi had become like this before the game started, Zhao Hu was a little embarrassed, but he still said a few words of relief, and assured that he had checked the terrain, there were no fierce birds and beasts nearby, but there were traces of snakes, this safety issue can definitely be guaranteed, let her not be careful.
Cai Shishi stood up again after hearing this, ready to move forward.
"Cai Shishi?"
