Chapter 30, five-color flower steamed buns
After about a quarter of an hour, Cui Gu came with a few steamers.
Inside the steamer are some trial snacks, all kinds of vegetables, melons and fruits and even flower petals are filled in the steamed buns, steamed in the steamer, colorful, and looks quite bright.
Pan Long also tried to taste one, and sighed secretly in his heart.
The food is full of color and flavor, and these steamed buns are fragrant and beautiful, but the taste is really not very good.
In order to make it flavorful, too much honey and lard are added to it, and it tastes a little greasy.
Wu Jixing's opinion was similar to him, he ate one, shook his head and put it down.
"It's just beautiful, not delicious. She said regretfully, "Every famous dish with full color and flavor is the result of the chef's research for many years, and it may even be the work of several generations." I guess it's going to take some time to polish your dish. ”
Wu Jixing's two bodyguards also tasted one each, although they didn't speak, they nodded again and again at the moment, obviously agreeing with Wu Jixing's opinion.
Cuigu had obviously tasted it and knew the taste, so she nodded and smiled: "I originally wanted to make this 'Baihua steamed bun' into steamed buns, but because I thought it was too difficult to make steamed buns, I retreated to make steamed buns first...... Now it seems that it is not easy to make steamed buns, and you have to think about it slowly. ”
Pan Long thought for a while and said, "Why do you have to stuff vegetables, fruits, and petals into the steamed buns?"
The crowd looked at him suspiciously, not knowing what he was going to say.
It's no secret that Northlanders and cuisine are almost insulated. For the Northlanders, hot wine, barbecue, and stewed vegetables are what they call a delicacy. Or take a back seat and have spirits - these people who live in bitter cold lands have a great need for food, and they don't care much about anything else.
A Northland wants to discuss food? Are you kidding?
In the skeptical eyes of everyone, Pan Long recalled the delicacies he had seen on the Internet and in games in his previous life, and said: "I have an idea, you can juice all kinds of vegetables that taste good, use colored vegetable juice instead of water, make flour into dough, and then use this colorful dough as a material to make steamed buns." Finally, after the steamed bun is out of the pot, it will be decorated with flower petals, so that it will have color and taste more easily?"
Everyone in Qionghua Pavilion was dumbfounded, but Cuigu's eyes lit up.
She has a hobby for cooking, and her level is not bad. As soon as Pan Long said it, she understood the benefits of this method - although using vegetable juice and noodles will give the dough itself a vegetable-flavored taste, as long as you don't use heavy-flavored vegetables such as onions, garlic and coriander, most vegetables don't taste off-putting to diners.
On the contrary, using these dough to make steamed buns does not need to add too much sugar and oil, and the taste can be made lighter, which is more in line with the taste of diners in the Guangling area.
Moreover, since the steamed bun itself has color, it does not need too many petals to add extra color, and can only be decorated with one or two petals - the hundred flower flowers are not for people to eat, and the taste of most petals is not very good, and sour and bitter are their mainstream.
Previously, she added heavy sugar and oil to the steamed buns in order to offset the astringency of the petals themselves. But since there are not many petals, of course, there is no need for heavy sugar and heavy oil.
Just thinking about it for a while, she felt that this method would work, and the effect would definitely not be bad!
"Okay! I'll try!"
As she spoke, she picked up the steamers, took them with the snacks that had not yet been eaten, and ran out as soon as she turned around, disappearing in a blink of an eye.
Wu Jixing's eyes were about to pop out, and it really took a little effort to hold back his embarrassed expression.
She originally thought that Aunt Cui was here to show Pan Long her good wife and mother, but it turned out that this guy ran out to research new dishes by himself.
Are you getting the point wrong? Isn't your goal to become Mrs. Pan, but to become the No. 1 chef in Guangling?
...... Wait, it seems good to become the first chef in Guangling. Cui Gu became Mrs. Pan, and to her Wu Jixing, she was just a number of allies. But if Cuigu becomes the first chef in Guangling, how many friends can't be made?
In this way, it seems that the latter is more cost-effective......
Wu Jixing was thinking about it, and suddenly he was stunned in his heart, and came back to his senses - Cuigu had trouble in front of her eyes that needed to be solved, and that bastard brother in her house had been beating her idea, and becoming the first chef in Guangling would be able to escape this catastrophe?
Impossible!
Even if Aunt Cui and her are like sisters, they are master and servant in name after all. After all, her brother Wu Tianzong is the nominal heir of the Wu family, and if he wants to forcibly take Cuigu as a concubine, she really can't find any good excuse to stop her.
...... Unless you stab that bastard brother to death!
Thinking of this, a murderous aura in her heart couldn't help but rise.
Pan Long was beside him, and suddenly felt an invisible pressure surging over, and turned his head to look, only to see that her eyes were slowly turning red, and a palpitating sneer appeared at the corner of her mouth.
"Helper?" The bodyguards saw a lot of this situation, and immediately reacted and asked loudly, interrupting her thoughts.
Wu Jixing reacted at this time, hurriedly closed his eyes, recited the scriptures silently, and it took a while to suppress this murderous aura.
She opened her eyes again, and her eyes were clear again: "I'm sorry to make Brother Pan smile." ”
Pan Long shook his head: "It's nothing. I'm just a little surprised...... Is this something convenient to ask?"
"Nothing was inconvenient. Wu Jixing sighed, "After Wu was born, he didn't cry or make trouble, just stared at him, and seemed to be very angry. My parents were very worried about me like this, so they asked for advice. The master took a calculation, saying that I was a murderous star, and I was born with a killing machine that destroyed the world and destroyed the world. If you can make good use of this killing opportunity, you can become a famous master in the world. But if it's the other way around......"
She didn't say anything more, just sighed deeply.
Pan Long frowned twice and asked, "The murderous star is fate...... Seven killings, breaking the army, greedy wolf, Jidu, Rahu...... Which malevolent star is it?"
"Everyone says it's a broken star. Wu Jixing said, "It is said that it is also the result of divination, and my father named me 'Pole Star', which actually implies the meaning of breaking the military star." ”
"Broken Army...... I do remember that there was a rumor in the rivers and lakes that Di Luonan was destined for the Seven Killing Stars, so after slaughtering hundreds of thousands of people in Baixi County, he sensed the stars, and soon broke through to the realm of real people, and now he is not even far from immortality. Pan Long said, "Plus you broken military star...... Could it be that there are still people in the world who are greedy for wolves, Ji Du, Rahu and other fierce stars?"
"My family also investigated, but it doesn't seem to have been found. Speaking of this, Wu Jixing couldn't help but smile, "In the past few years, there has been a young master in Yunzhou named White Tiger Star. This is also a famous murder star, just investigating this person's life, in fact, he is a very reasonable person, much stronger than me, a half-madman who wants to go crazy and kill people at every turn!"
Her face was full of embarrassment, and she could see that she was very dissatisfied with her situation.
Pan Long laughed secretly in his heart - the "White Tiger Star" was himself at all, but no one else knew it.
"Since the person called the White Tiger Star is actually not a Murderous Star, then why do you think you are a Murderous Star?
"Isn't it enough to prove that you are born with such a murderous nature?" Wu Jixing asked rhetorically.
Pan Long shook his head: "Born with some special skills, this kind of person is not so rare." Legend has it that Emperor Jiazi and Wen Chaogong were born to know it, Wen Chaogong knew almost everything about astronomy, geography, medicine, divination and astrology, and many immortals and Buddhas were impressed by him; According to what you say, the two of them, could it be that they are also some stars?"
"There has always been a folk legend that one of these two people is an emperor star and the other is a saint. ”
"But what do you think? Do you believe this statement?" Pan Long asked, "As far as I know, neither Emperor Jiazi nor Wen Chaogong were able to cultivate into an adult life later. Don't you think it's ridiculous that a dignified emperor star and a saint can't even live forever?"
“...... Maybe they will return to heaven after their deeds are completed. ”
Pan Long shook his head: "According to what you say, don't you also believe that there is a heavenly court in the sky, and all the heavens and stars are all officials in the heavenly court, managing the human world under the notice of the emperor of heaven, and from time to time they will be reincarnated?"
Wu Jixing shook his head, and he couldn't help but laugh.
The Great Xia Dynasty openly denied the existence of the so-called "Heavenly Court", and Emperor Jiazi once said: "This world is the world of my Great Xia, if there is a god in heaven who wants to manage the world, and come to fight with Great Xia!"
The Great Xia Dynasty has lasted for thousands of years, but no god has ever descended to earth to compete with the Great Xia Dynasty for the right to manage the world.
From this point of view, there should be no gods in the heavens.
And Wen Chaogong said more directly than Di Jiazi: "The sky full of stars is just countless stones and fireballs, the closer we look brighter, the farther away, we look darker." As for the Emperor of Heaven or something...... It is the common people who fantasize about the existence of the Emperor of Heaven that will make the Warring States last so long! Life in the world, not afraid of weakness, only afraid of weak knees! If you kneel on the ground, then naturally everything is higher than you......"
This passage is recorded in the "Admonitions" hand-picked by Emperor Jiazi Yubi, although it is not a textbook for official learning, but if you want to learn a little more knowledge, and even participate in the imperial examination, it is also one of the compulsory textbooks.
The Great Xia Dynasty only recognized that there were immortals in the world, but did not admit that there were gods in the heavens.
Since there are no gods, of course, there are no evil stars descending to earth.
Then, Di Luonan is not a Seven Killing Star, Wu Ji Star is not a Broken Army Star, and as for Pan Long, of course, he is not a White Tiger Star, everyone can only be regarded as talented at best.
Pan Long didn't say this, he believed in this truth, Wu Jixing must have understood.
But he knows another thing better - theory pales in the face of reality.
Why do high-level intellectuals who have studied scientific theories often fall for some clumsy low-level deceptions?
Most people don't have the opportunity to test the scientific theories they've learned. When they see a reality that is very different from what they have learned, many people doubt the reliability of the theory.
"Seeing is believing" is a natural disposition of human beings based on their own cognitive ability to the world.
Does Wu Jixing have the conditions to verify that there are no gods in the world?
Of course not.
In the face of her innate ferocity, she would of course be inclined to believe that there really is a god, and that she is really the reincarnation of a fierce star.
This is not something that can be persuaded with words, and if you can't come up with a strong reality, anything will be in vain.
Moreover, there is a God in this world.
The demon god is a god, the demon god is also a god, the city god land, the mountain god and the dragon king...... Strictly speaking, it's actually a god.
If there are these gods, then who can be sure that there are no gods in the sky?
Anyway, Pan Long felt that if others didn't say it, the demon god who resurrected Han Feng was fully qualified to be called a god if he lived in the sky.
What's wrong with a demon god who can resurrect people who have been dead for a few years and call him a god?
Moreover, he remembered that during the resurrection ceremony, when the demon god was watching this place and the pressure was extremely great, another voice sounded. Moreover, the voice also stopped the demon god.
Those who can stop the demon gods must also be gods of the same level. These are the two gods.
He has also checked the information, and there are actually many similar demon gods. If these demon gods are related to each other and have a social relationship that belongs to the demon gods, isn't that Heavenly Court?
As for whether there are seven killing stars, broken army stars, and greedy wolf stars in this heavenly court...... Even the White Tiger Star Pan Long was also uncertain.
But he bet that Wu Jixing would definitely not be the reincarnation of a broken military star.
The reason is very simple, if the broken army star wants to be reincarnated, it must be because there is something to do. No matter what He wants to do, at the very least, He will never resolutely refuse to admit his murderous nature and push himself in the direction of schizophrenia.
What a god should do! It's too embarrassing!
But he didn't say these words either.
I don't know if I can convince Wu Jixing to say it, but I will definitely offend the other party ruthlessly, and if I don't become an enemy, the other party will be considered to be well-nourished.
You can smoke yourself twice, what's the point of talking nonsense?
But Pan Long has already decided that when he waits for the summer solstice next year, he will go to the Dragon Slaying Treasure and ask Wen Chao about the "reincarnation of the murderous star".
Is there a reincarnation of a murderous star in this world? If so, how should it be determined? How should a person who has been reincarnated by a murderous star live? These questions, perhaps Wen Chao knows some inside information.
While pondering these questions, he chatted with Wu Jixing.
After a while, the aroma came again.
Cui Gu smiled and came over with a few steamers.
The steamer was opened, and inside was red, green, and yellow...... The steamed buns of various colors, one by one, are round and bulging, and they crack like a grin in the middle, and they happen to be embedded with a few flowers, which are extremely attractive in terms of color and fragrance.
Everyone had a tacit understanding and ate it.
After only one bite, Pan Long smiled.
Very good! Soft and delicious, the sweetness is just right, this steamed bun is much stronger than those just now, it is fully qualified to be called a delicacy!
"Nice!
"The steamed buns made by Aunt Cui this time are delicious!"
The two bodyguards ate the steamed bun in two bites, and then praised it while reaching out to take it again.
Wu Jixing also smiled and said, "It seems that cooking can't be done behind closed doors." Brother Pan, if you have time, welcome to come to Yitian Courtyard more often, Aunt Cui must want to talk to you about cooking. ”
Pan Long smiled and nodded slightly.
Although he knew that there was a deliberate design behind this thing, he didn't hate it with such a development.
