Chapter 19: Erina's Realization
Erina looked at Jiang Bai with resentment.
"Teacher Jiang, this cheese ......"
"It's hard to eat, isn't it?"
Jiang Bai said what Erina was going to say in advance.
"Yes."
"It's normal to be unpleasant, but haven't you learned something from it? With your talents, you can comprehend things. ”
Erina closed her eyes and thought for a moment.
"It seems to be."
"A little bit about cheese fermentation."
Jiang Bai showed a smile.
Sure enough, it was the same as Jiang Bai expected.
The gift of God's tongue is so strong.
Even if it's just a small piece, it will have an effect.
"What do you think Erina is worth it?"
Erina was stunned for a moment.
There was silence for a while.
"Just eating unpalatable dishes can gain realization, which should be a very cost-effective thing for chefs, and it is much easier than practicing."
"But, Mr. Jiang, can I ask you a question?"
Jiang Bai nodded.
"Yes."
"Mr. Jiang, does your cuisine have to be made like this, so that the taster can gain understanding from it?"
"That's right."
Jiang Bai didn't lie about this.
Jiang Bai has only reached the level of a god in dark cuisine, and in normal cuisine, he is only proficient, and he may not be as good as Erina.
How is it possible for a taster to comprehend something at this level of cuisine?
Moreover, the dark dishes made by Jiang Bai are still the recipes provided by the system, an improved version.
This is something that can't be compared to normal cooking.
"Erina, you've said it yourself, it's already easy compared to practice."
"In this world, there is nothing that is completely unearned, and if you want to reap the rewards, you must pay a price."
Ehaku looked at Erina.
"So I can't change the taste of these dishes."
"If it changes, then the taster will not be able to gain understanding from it."
Erina nodded.
"I see."
"Then Erina, do you want to taste it a little more? Maybe you can get more out of it. ”
"This ......"
Erina hesitated.
Gaining insights from the process of tasting food is also very attractive for Erina, who is still not satisfied with her current cooking skills.
After all, Erina is only the tenth of the ten masters.
What Erina yearns for is a higher position.
And there's another point.
The side effects of the tongue of the gods are not very strong in Erina's body yet, but there is still a reaction to dishes that are too unpalatable, and they will resist.
However, the casumasu cheese in front of him did not give Erina this feeling.
Obviously, this cheese is unpalatable.
But the resistance of the tongue of God did not.
The unpalatable is just Erina's psychological perception.
And the resistance of the tongue of God is pathological, just like Nagi Shinnagi, which cannot be overcome.
This made Erina very concerned.
Jiang Bai saw Erina's hesitation, and immediately encouraged.
"Since Erina has already taken a bite, it doesn't matter if you take another bite, right?"
"One bite and two mouthfuls, there's no difference, is it?"
"And there's a chance you'll get to understand it again, which is a good deal."
Erina was moved and nodded.
"Then I'll take another bite."
Erina picked up the fork.
I took a piece to the side.
This one is much bigger than the first one.
Entrance.
Immediately the taste of the cheese spreads.
"It's still so bad!"
Erina's brow furrowed.
"Resentment +18."
When Jiang Bai heard the voice, he looked at Erina, more and more satisfied, and felt that this was a treasure.
The Tongue of God is specially designed for one's own dark cuisine.
Erina opened her eyes.
"Teacher Jiang, I didn't gain comprehension this time."
"That's right."
Jiang Bai saw that Erina was a little disappointed, and immediately comforted: "It's okay, I'll take another bite if I don't gain comprehension." ”
"In addition to the talent of the taster himself, the more important point is the quantity, the amount of food eaten, the more you eat, the greater the chance of gaining understanding."
"You've already eaten two bites, and if you take one more bite, there's not much difference."
"Take one more bite and you'll surely gain realization."
Erina didn't want to eat it anymore.
However, seeing Jiang Bai's encouraging eyes, Erina hesitated again.
Jiang Bai continued: "I met a student before, whose talent was much worse than that of Erina, and when he ate the first nine servings of Casumasu cheese, he didn't gain comprehension. ”
"But this student persisted until the tenth."
"Finally, the student got what he wanted."
Erina's eyes widened.
"This man, eating ten servings of this cheese at once?"
"Yes."
Erina couldn't help but feel a trace of admiration for this person she had never met.
But if Erina knew the truth, she wouldn't be admirable.
Because Yurio Yamamoto was not voluntary, but was forced by Jiang Bai, it was Jiang Bai's punishment.
"Erina you tasted the first bite, and you got another from it, which proves that Erina's talent in this area is excellent, if you don't taste more, it will be a waste of talent."
Erina nodded.
"Then I'll taste a little more."
Erina picked up the fork and took out another small piece.
However, when she put it to her mouth, Erina stopped.
Because this one is a little different from the previous two.
The previous two pieces of cheese were deliberately selected by Erina, and there were no maggots on them.
But this piece has.
A maggot, wriggling on the surface of the cheese, a small body, arching one after another.
Jiang Bai saw the maggot and smiled.
"These maggots are clean, and they have just been born, and they basically eat cheese, ignoring their appearance, maggots, in fact, are a very good kind of meat."
"The protein content is higher than beef."
"And that's the perfect Casumasu cheese."
"It's a completely different dish from cheese without maggots."
"If you eat at this time, the harvest should be even greater."
Erina looked at Ehaku.
Jiang Bai's eyes were full of encouragement.
Erina gritted her teeth.
Mouth.
Feed the cheese in.
Bite down.
Immediately, Erina felt the sensation of maggots wriggling in her mouth.
A wave of nausea rushed over Erina's mind.
Subconsciously, Erina was about to vomit.
"Erina, come on, I'm sure you can do it."
"Overcome the difficulties in front of you, and you will reap great rewards!"
Jiang Ming's voice sounded, and it was forceful, so that Erina's idea of wanting to vomit was taken back.
Erina forcibly held back.
Chew quickly.
Finally, chew it all.
Erina didn't hesitate and quickly swallowed the contents of her mouth.
"Teacher Jiang, do you have water here?"
"Yes."
Jiang Ming smiled.
"I'll get it for you right away."
