Chapter Twenty-Seven: An Amazing Amount of Food
After sending Huo Fatzi away, Chen Xian hurriedly returned to his bedroom.
As soon as he opened the door, he found that the girl did not sit on the bed and wait for him, but hugged the quilt and fell asleep again.
Chen Xian stood at the door for a while, and seeing that the girl had no tendency to wake up, he quietly closed the door and secretly walked out of the back room.
Taking advantage of this good opportunity when the fart was not there, Chen Xian took his wallet and went out to buy vegetables, the inventory at home had been eaten by the two of them yesterday, if he didn't go to buy something to eat, he could only order takeout, but Chen Xian didn't like to eat takeout, and felt that the taste couldn't catch up with half of what he made.
In a farmer's market near Luoguxiang, Chen Xian wandered left and right and found the familiar shops.
I bought 20 catties of beef, 10 catties of mutton, 10 catties of fresh prawns, two fresh pork knuckles, and some vegetables as accessories, and spent more than 2,000 in total.
For a long time, the owners of the shops in the farmers' market thought that Chen Xian was opening a small restaurant, but they would never have imagined that these were just Chen Xian's daily amounts.
It's hard to say how big Chen Xian's meal is, because he has never eaten it, and the most he eats in a single meal is when he was eighteen years old on his birthday, when he ate thirty catties of beef in one meal, and he didn't eat him anymore, he only felt that he was about eighty percent full.
After the age of eighteen, the amount of food he eats is a little smaller, and he can control it freely.
Just like now, the total amount of meat he eats every day can reach 30 catties, and sometimes 10 catties and 20 catties can make do, but the premise is to fill his stomach with vegetables and rice, otherwise he will still feel hungry.
In addition to eating a lot, he also has an exclusive skill.
For example, if he eats more than one meal in the morning and eats enough for the whole day, then he will not feel hungry for that day, and it will not be until twenty-four hours later that he will gradually feel hungry, and then he will need to continue eating.
This dismaying appetite has a lot to do with his special abilities.
Chen Xian has two special abilities that can be called the bottom of the box, in addition to the kind of self-healing ability that is so powerful that he will be afraid of himself, his other ability is that he can eat abnormal life, these lives include spirits but are not limited to spirits, and the most prominent feature of his ability is that he has excellent teeth.
Take the abnormal life that the dean in the cave turned into as an example, its skin tissue is extremely tough, it can be said that it is invulnerable, and even bullets cannot penetrate it, but Chen Xian bit its defense line with a mouthful of small white teeth.
From this point of view, the degree of Chen Xian's tooth abnormality is not low, but this can only be regarded as a supplementary gift package for stomach abnormality.
The stomach mutation brought great benefits to Chen Xian, allowing Chen Xian to break out of the unique "Alien Eater" code name in the secret bureau.
But there are also disadvantages to this ability, which can be regarded as a physical defect.
His appetite can't be controlled to the level of a normal person, maybe his body consumes too much energy every day, and he must use food to replenish it, and his desire to eat is far better than ordinary people, and he wants to eat everything when he is hungry.
In order to make himself appear "normal" and avoid the appearance of being possessed by a hungry ghost, Chen Xian could only rely on diet therapy to suppress the strange desire to eat.
Although he eats a lot, it is undeniable that he is also a more particular person, and he is still very picky about this aspect of eating, sometimes when he is hungry outside, he would rather not eat and continue to be hungry and go home to cook by himself.
Perhaps he was born with a talent for cooking, plus he is very persistent in the word "eat", and he also likes to delve into this aspect of things, so his cooking skills are not much worse than the chefs in restaurants outside.
Back at the old mansion, Chen Xian went to the bedroom to take a look and found that the girl was still sleeping.
"Is it a pig...... I won't wake up until noon......"
Chen Xian muttered a sentence and went to the kitchen with several large bags of ingredients.
The kitchen of the old house is not the same as the kitchen of the normal family, as soon as you enter the door, you can see the fierce fire stove that the hotel has, all kinds of cooking utensils are readily available, the most conspicuous is the two amphora big iron pots on the stove, I don't know that I thought I entered the back kitchen of the hotel.
Turn on the hood and heat the oil.
In the clinking sound of the iron pot and the frying spoon, Chen Xian began to get busy.
The fresh ten catties of mutton were divided into two by him, half of which was used to make a delicious and nourishing radish and mutton stew, and the other half was made into a red stewed mutton with a heavier taste, and the ten catties of fresh prawns were all blanched, so as to ensure that its most primitive umami would not be lost, and it was dipped in the secret ginger and garlic seafood juice, and it tasted so fresh that you could swallow your tongue.
The two pork knuckles did not fall, and after Chen Xian cleaned them up, they were all made into red stewed elbows.
It's also his specialty.
When the pork knuckle comes out of the pot, the color is red and bright like jade, the bone and meat are crispy, and the fat but not greasy, and the fragrant soup is an excellent material for mixing white rice.
As for the twenty catties of beef, it was divided into a lot of fine, after all, beef is Chen Xian's favorite ingredient.
Beef in cold sauce, roasted beef with potatoes, beef cubes with cumin, shredded beef with green onions......
By the time Chen Xian prepared the meal, it was more than one o'clock in the afternoon.
I went to the side room and brought a round wooden table top for the hotel, placed it in the courtyard according to its previous position, and then went to the back room to bring two suitable chairs, and then began to serve the food.
"Goo."
The girl had already woken up, from the time Chen Xian first got up to boil the oil, she ran to the door of the kitchen, like a kitten waiting to be fed, staring at Chen Xian, swallowing a few saliva from time to time, and secretly wiping her mouth.
When Chen Xian was serving, she followed him inch by inch, completely possessed by farts and insects.
Originally, Chen Xian planned to ask her to help serve the food, but after thinking about it...... According to the logic of her thinking, maybe the next second she took the dish, she began to eat it with her hands.
Thinking of this, Chen Xian gave up that unrealistic idea, and ran back and forth a few times steadily, and then he got all the dozen dishes ready.
Most of the dishes are served in pots, and Chen Xian doesn't care about the delicate work of plating, so he can eat them anyway.
"Use this."
Chen Xian handed the fork to the girl's hand and motioned for her to learn to eat with the fork herself, but what he never expected was that the girl's eyes turned red instantly, and she looked at Chen Xian pitifully, opened her pink mouth and made a "ahhhh
Seeing this scene, Chen Xian's face suddenly darkened.
Is this still trying to feed her?
Don't you have any hands?
"Eat it yourself." Chen Xian frowned and said, helped her fill a bowl of rice, and then picked up a fork himself, and while demonstrating to the girl, he quickly swept the hot dishes in the pot.
The girl thought that Chen Xian didn't understand what she meant, so she hurriedly put her little face in front of Chen Xian, opened her mouth and screamed, looking very anxious.
Chen Xian only pretended not to see it, and ate without saying a word.
The girl was completely stunned.
She didn't expect Chen Xian to ignore her at all.
After two seconds, seeing the shrimp shells quickly piled up on the table, the girl decided to fend for herself.
"Hmm!"
"Yes, good."
Although the girl's voice was full of anger, Chen Xian was still very pleased, especially when he saw the girl learn to eat with a fork, he had a feeling that his own children had grown up...... What a relief!
It was also at this time that Chen Xian suddenly found that the girl ate very few vegetables, but was eating white rice in a big gulp, and ate a bowl of three times and five divided by two.
"You like to eat rice?" Chen Xian asked when she helped her serve the meal.
This time, the girl seemed to understand Chen Xian's words, nodded slightly, and was afraid that Chen Xian would not understand her expression, so she raised her finger and pointed to the rice cooker that was placed aside.
"Then you eat more, it's not enough, I cooked three pots."
"Hmm!"
Chen Xian felt that he was almost too busy to die, and he had to pick vegetables for the girl and peel shrimp shells for her, and he was completely called by the nanny old mother.
"Alas...... I really shouldn't have left you behind......" Chen Xian sighed helplessly.
"Hmm." The girl answered.
"You're useless, I'm really sorry!" Chen Xian muttered, and went to help her serve a bowl of rice.
Judging from the tone, Chen Xian seemed to regret taking the girl in, but judging from his expression...... In fact, it seems that this is not the case, he has always had a smile on his face, even if he regrets it, the smile has not diminished by half a point.
Maybe Chen Xian is not a person who likes loneliness, but loneliness found him, and he happened to not realize it.
"You learn it yourself, it's not difficult to peel shrimp shells, you give me a little more serious, watch and learn hard." Chen Xian peeled the shrimp shell for her, looking a little impatient, and the tone of his frowning speech was like a parent educating a child.
"Hmm!"
The girl blinked, as if she understood, but as if she didn't understand, but she still opened her mouth wide and waited for Chen Xian to throw the peeled shrimp into it.
"the fart, you're a big horse monkey......"
