Five years later......

"It's finally back!" Stepping on the familiar homeland again, Lin Yiyan took a deep breath with an expression full of joy, "What has happened in the past five years!" I don't know what the situation is now, is Master Abbe okay now?! I haven't seen each other for five years, and I don't know if everyone is doing well. ”

In the past five years, Lin Yiyan can be said to have traveled all over China. Of course, the legendary kitchen utensils, in addition to the eternal spirit knife sealed in Guangzhou, other including the pair of jade dragon pots in the palace and the greedy wolf pot in Mount Tai have all been obtained by Lin Yiyan.

Of course, in the past five years, Lin Yiyan naturally can't just be running around collecting legendary kitchen utensils. At the same time, he also saw a variety of cooking techniques from all over China, met various chefs with different personalities, and had extraordinary culinary duels with different chefs.

If you want to use words to tell it, Lin Yiyan's trip can be said to be very exciting. And this time he came back, not only because Lin Yiyan had completed anything he wanted to do, but also because Lin Yiyan fulfilled the agreement between him and Master Abbe, and he went downstairs on behalf of Ju to participate in the quadrennial Guangzhou Special Chef Test.

It's just that when Lin Yiyan returned to Ju downstairs, the whole person was stunned. Because the door of the whole Ju downstairs is open, there is no one inside, and some of the tables and chairs downstairs are still smashed, although it has been simply cleaned up, but the layout of the Ju downstairs still seems very disorderly.

Faced with such a situation, Lin Yiyan was very angry and puzzled, and at the same time muttered with worry, "What's going on?" How could this happen when Ju went downstairs? Could it be that someone is deliberately stirring up trouble? What about Master? How are Ah Ling and the little master? ”

After chattering, Lin Yiyan couldn't wait to rush through the restaurant into the backyard, and the backyard was empty, facing such a strange situation, Lin Yiyan shouted very uneasily, "Master! Little master! Ling! Where are you! ”

Lin Yiyan rushed into the room belonging to them while shouting everyone's name, and found that each room was empty, but when he pushed open the door of Master Abbey's room, Lin Yiyan was stunned, although the layout of the room did not change very much, but in the room, he did not see the familiar and gentle figure of Master Abbey under the candlelight.

There are just an incense case and a black and white photo, the person in the photo is Lin Yiyan's beloved master, and the incense burner in front of the black and white photo is still rising green smoke, this scene makes Lin Yiyan like five thunderbolts, and an unbelievable absurd feeling comes to his heart. At this moment, Lin Yiyan felt as if he had fallen into a black hole, and the cold feeling in his heart changed into tears coming out of his eyes.

"Partner! Please mourn and be happy! As if he had discovered a change in the outside world, Lin Yiyan's left hand flashed red, and a voice of relief sounded in his ears.

"How so! How so! Lin Yiyan roared in disbelief, "I obviously made a lot of arrangements before I left, and I didn't hurry to pay off the debt of Ju downstairs." Worried about Master's body collapsing, I also used my life energy to help Master regulate his body......"

"Why! Why! Nothing has changed! Looking at Master Abbey's still gentle smile in the photo, I recalled the bits and pieces of getting along with Master Abbey after apprenticeship, including laughter when the meal was completed, strict teaching when making mistakes, and gentle encouragement when frustrated......

All kinds of pictures flashed through Lin Yiyan's mind like movie clips, and Lin Yiyan, who was in tears, was full of remorse and self-blame, "Why am I not here when Master needs me the most, if I were here, maybe everything would be different!" Maybe everything will be different! ”

In the face of Lin Yiyan's self-blame, the artifact in Lin Yiyan's left hand flashed, and finally turned into a sigh. It's not that Draiger doesn't want to persuade, because he knows that some things need to rely on Lin Yiyan to get out of his sadness, and it is difficult for others' persuasion to achieve results.

At the same time, when Lin Yiyan stepped into Ju downstairs. In addition, in the Admiral's Mansion in this town, a dish that decided the fate of the chrysanthemum downstairs was also launched at the same time.

"The review of the Kikushimi Downstairs Cooking Contest starts now!" A slightly majestic voice announced, "Little master, Shao An! You're all set! ”

"Yes!" The voices of the two sounded at the same time, and then the little master and Shao An presented the dishes they had prepared. Then the first majestic voice continued to sound, "Sichuan's mapo tofu pays attention to the integration of numb, spicy, color, fragrant, and hot five flavors, so you can talk about it, where is the key to the sixth taste of magic mapo tofu!" ”

"Lies in..."

"Lies in..."

"Crisp!" The little master and Shao An shouted in unison, and after shouting, the two looked at each other in unison, and the expressions on their faces were full of surprise-

"What! Shao An actually found out? ”

"How is that possible! This one... Boy..."

Without waiting for the two of them to think about it, Admiral Li, who was sitting in the judging position, spoke again, "Very good! You both found out! The so-called 'crispy' is also a crunchy texture, and the sixth flavor I ask for is exactly - crispy! Now let me try the mapo tofu where the two of you are! ”

As soon as Admiral Li's words fell, the attendants standing on either side of Admiral Li opened the lid of the food prepared by the two, and the perfect color and fragrance rushed straight to the face, seeing such a delicious feast, Admiral Li sighed, "Oh!! Both sides look delicious, whether it is made by the little master on the right or Shao An on the left! ”

"Look at the cube-cut tofu, the beef mixed in it, and the bright green garlic sprouts, plus the fragrant minced sansho, the most exciting thing is the chili oil floating around, sparkling with oil!"

At this moment, the entrance of the Admiral's Mansion can be said to be full of people, as if everyone in the entire town has gathered here, and with Admiral Li's evaluation, everyone swallowed their saliva in unison......

"Yes! Mapo tofu is the source of our vitality! ”

"Wow! It's really exciting! ”

"It looks delicious, and I really want to try it!"

"Suck ~~! Suck~~!! "It's the sound of sucking saliva!

"Huh? Looks like Lord Admiral has already started the review! ”

"Yes! He kept staring at the two plates of mapo tofu and observed them carefully! ”

"I guess the Admiral is comparing the scents on both sides when he is watching!"

"Ahh Adults are now starting to taste the soup on both sides......! ”
