"Ding."

Again?

Xia Yan found that the [character level] was increased from LV1 to LV3, and he instantly upgraded by 2 levels, and at the same time received 2 skill points for free from the level increase.

There are a total of 4 idle skill points in hand, and the feeling of suddenly getting rich makes Xia Yan feel at a loss for two or three seconds.

Pull open your personal cooking panel.

[Knife Skill] - Basic Knife Skill (Elementary 0/1)

[Seasoning] - Basic Seasoning (Intermediate 0/2) - Spicy Specialty (cannot be upgraded)

[Heat] - Basic Heat (Beginner 0/1)

"Spicy Mastery, you are a seasoned spicy hunter, and you will get an extra proficiency bonus for cooking spicy dishes, making it easier to make dishes with high ratings and high indexes."

Speaking of which, the branch skill card of 'Seasoning-Spicy' was obtained by Xia Yan by opening a newbie gift pack.

So the question is, should we continue to deepen the seasoning?

Invest 2 skill points to upgrade 'Basic Seasoning' to Advanced and unlock the next advanced talent (skill) related to Spiciness?

Xia Yan thought about it, and shook his head after a while: "The reason why cooking skills are comprehensive is that it is the barrel theory. One of the three basic skills is the primitive stage that has not been improved, and there is a possibility that my cooking skills can pull my crotch at any time. ”

So far, I am very cautious and cautious, and I don't dare to touch too complicated dishes, but I am afraid that the knife skills and the heat will suddenly pull the crotch.

Well, the cliff can be said to be a stable crotch pull.

"Stuffed Bitter Melon with Douban Sauce" is his first personal star recipe, not for no reason, this is a snack, the technical content is not high, the knife part is only cut bitter gourd, and the heat part is only steamed through water.

"Knife skills and heat must be ordered, unlock the first advanced skill first, and don't drag down my cooking strength too much."

Thinking of this, Xia Yan began to distribute.

['Basic Sword Skill' has been increased to Intermediate (0/2).] 】

[You have unlocked a related advanced skill [Flower Knife].] 】

"Flower knife": Among the known Chinese knife skills, there are dozens of flower knife techniques......"

Closing the description, Xia Yan didn't have the patience to read it anymore.

A little crooked again?

Well, two again, into a pair.

Flower knife or something, look at it, the name is very flowery, and there is always an unrealistic sense of flower juggling.

Fortunately, the first advance of [Huoqi] can still be expected, and before reaching the abyss of despair, Xia Yan took a deep breath: "Come again-"

Skill points are successfully assigned.

Unlocks advanced skills related to heat.

"Firewood Clay Stove" ......"

Tick, close!

Xia Yan felt that he couldn't stand it, a deep sense of despair.

What and what is this?

What is it.

What does it mean to give me the whole 'firewood stove', is it possible that in Tokyo, I can still take a brick, build an earthen stove in the backyard, go to the park every day to find dry firewood, and then cook while the smoke fills the streets of Shitamachi......

imagined the picture of thick smoke billowing out, Xia Yan covered his face with his hands.

"I'm afraid that the street association, the environmental protection association, the food association, and these dog-dead associations will all hit the door, and the system will be iron, let me go!"

Xia Yan wanted to cry without tears, and the third one was what.

And again, huh?

I want to delete the number.

Mourning is greater than heart death!

Xia Yan doesn't have any expectations for his crooked cooking skills, perhaps, next time he assigns skill points, he should go to the shrine to ask for a guard, and then come back to bathe, change clothes, burn incense and worship?

……

Takashi Shimada put down his beer glass, looking restless, and occasionally cast his gaze into the bar.

This is the second time he has come to this Chinese restaurant.

He is in his 40s, close to 50, and as a Heisei who experienced the prosperity and neon of the late 20th century, Takashi Shimada also had a period of drunken dreams, not treating money as money, eating and drinking, and extremely luxurious.

At that time, it was also the heyday of the club, and the power expanded by half of Tokyo, Takashi Shimada clearly remembered himself as the leader of the group, and when he walked to the gambling hall, there was a waiter who brought him a plate of chips for him to play, and walked to Kabuki Street, and his mother, San, who was snuggling in her arms, smiled and said that Miss So-and-so was popular, and her skills in serving guests were great.

Not to mention the food, the most ostentatious hospitality Shimada has ever encountered in his life is the huge seafood sushi boat that takes up more than half of the room, and is loaded with the best seafood caught on the day.

As a result, two days ago, Takashi Shimada, who had tasted delicious food, was defeated by a 'dark dish'.

Obviously they all said to themselves, swearing that they would not come again.

Why do you want to come a second time?

The buttocks moved unnaturally, and although it was out of place, Takashi Shimada couldn't avoid thinking of himself on the toilet bowl in the evening toilet immediately after the meal that day.

His face was flushed and painful, and the tissues were ......

"Tons and tons of ......" kept pouring beer into their mouths to hide the serious panic in their hearts.

At the same time, from time to time, Takashi Shimada cast his gaze at the young girl in the next seat.

She's enjoying a 'dark dish'.

The combination of bitter gourd and red filling, in the eyes of Takashi Shimada, is really inferior to those top-notch meals he has enjoyed in the past.

But for some reason, after swallowing a sip of beer, Takashi Shimada wiped his mouth, his throat unnaturally and slammed up and down.

The beer has long been swallowed, which is a knee-jerk reflex for appetite to be stimulated.

Of course, it is impossible for Takashi Shimada to admit that he also wants to eat the same 'dark cuisine'.

"Ah~"

The sudden sound made Takashi Shimada look over in astonishment.

The girl's eyes were strangely moist, her cheeks, which were slightly sweaty after a morning run, were covered with a layer of smooth sweat visible to the naked eye, and the flush on her complexion had already spread into the collar of her sportswear.

"Hiss, it's spicy, it's really spicy......"

whispered on his mouth, the tone was soft and glutinous, like a kitten being coquettish.

I saw that the girl diner drank a glass of water, and then continued to eat the combination of bitter gourd and red filling on the plate, she did not eat it with rice, but ate the dish in front of her, and hissed from time to time.

Takashi Shimada: ???

Hearing it, the hissing and gasping revealed a trace of pain, and the girl's sweaty appearance was obviously uncomfortable.

But why is it so skilled?

After two more sips of beer, Takashi Shimada turned his gaze back to the inside of the bar.

He ordered a dish of fried rice.

It is not the 'Yangzhou fried rice' that neon people are familiar with, but the 'spicy fried rice'.

At this time, Xia Yan cut the other ingredients almost enough, only a ham sausage and a cucumber were left unprocessed, he randomly pulled out a handy knife from the knife holder, and with a "hiss" movement, the tip of the knife was in a straight line, from one end of the ham sausage to the other, so the whole package was torn open, and it was easy to take out the thing completely.

The whole ham is placed on the cutting board, but there is no "Bang Bang" that Takashi Shimada expected, and the knife falls and falls, and the quick cutting technique is clean and neat.

The young store manager and chef, instead, held a knife, flipped the ham several times, and carved the painting on the four sides of the surrounding area.

Takashi Shimada: ???

Do?

It's just a fried rice, and it's not a top-notch dish, is it necessary to deal with it like this? Just cut it into cubes for me, hey!

The chef seemed to suddenly hear Takashi Shimada's silent complaint, and when he woke up, with some confusion in his eyes, he stared at the ham for a few seconds, and the two fingers that grabbed the ham shook hard.

"Huh."

Takashi Shimada's eyes widened suddenly.

"Holes, peacocks open the screen?"

I saw a ham, in a very regular and very uniform shape, along one of the main branches, branching out!

"Phoenix, wheat ear shape." Xia Yan said silently in his heart, "Wipe it, why did this "flower knife" suddenly trigger, I just want to be very normal and ordinary, and make an ordinary and ordinary dish!" ”

Turning around, he opened his mouth to the uncle who was looking at him dumbfounded: "This is conducive to heating and stir-frying, well, heat." ”

"Is that so?"

Takashi Shimada suddenly felt that all his past glorious years had been lived by dogs.
