Chapter 14 The Flowers Are Late

Tianbao tried very hard to widen his small eyes, but they were still only like a slit of flesh, but his pupils were full of anger and horror, but people didn't dare to move, although Tianbao had always been afraid of heaven and earth, only afraid of Master Shen's hand, but this trick of the old man made him feel dangerous.

The old gentleman's hair and beard were all the same white, not gray like Ling Han's, but snow-white, his eyes were shining, his clothes were patched, but they were clean, and behind him stood a hexagram embroidered with a Tai Chi Pisces figure.

The old gentleman stopped groping for Ling Han and glanced at Tianbao, so frightened that Tianbao hid back.

"Little baby, your appearance reminds me of a person! Your muscles and bones remind me of another person!" the old man smashed his mouth, his voice hoarse, but he seemed a little excited.

"Old man, I don't know who I remind you of like this?" Ling Han said, although Ling Han didn't know this old gentleman, he felt that the old gentleman had no malicious intent.

"Little baby, don't talk yet, the little old man will calculate a hexagram for you!" With that, he forcibly pulled Ling Han's arm and pressed it to the hanging stall.

I saw that the old gentleman looked at Ling Han's palmistry, and he closed his eyes and was chattering, and he didn't know what he was muttering. Then, the old gentleman quickly wrote something on the paper and handed it to Ling Han.

Ling Han looked at it, and it was actually a poem: The snow and plum fragrance on the top of Wanren Peak, the fate is unfortunate. If the sky is cold and hot, the four seas and clouds will soar.

Ling Han's heart was suddenly surging, and a poem actually revealed his own way. Looking up, he saw that the old man's eyes were a little flustered, Ling Han hurriedly grabbed the old man's arm and said, "Senior!

The old gentleman pointed over there and said, "This is not the place to talk! I have something to do, so I have to go first!"

Ling Han looked in the direction pointed by the old gentleman, it turned out that Lu Qiong and the three of them were walking here, looking at Lu Qiong's appearance, as if they were a little unhappy.

"Senior, are you afraid of them, how do you know my background?" Ling Han asked.

"Boy, don't ask, the flowers are late, goodbye!"

Ling Han couldn't help but look at the old man's disappearing back, and a hundred thousand whys sprouted in his heart. Who is this old man? Why does he know so much about his background? Is he really a god? Does he know his father and mother? Is he friend or foe?

In the midst of his doubts, the three men approached.

"Brother Ling, you see it's already noon! I'll invite you to dinner!" Liao Quan said with a smile.

"Yes, yes, I'm hungry!" Tempo forgot the pain just now and agreed.

"No, the lord doesn't allow us to eat outside!"

"This ......" Ling Han hesitated slightly, and glanced at Lu Qiong, who knew that Lu Qiong was looking at him expectantly.

"Don't hesitate!Brother Ling, when we meet for the first time, I can be regarded as a little landlord!" Lu Qiong's face was also cloudy and clear, and she followed the two of them upside down, completely lacking that cold look. Xiaoyun had no choice but to follow, the master did not allow the young lady to eat outside, but he did not allow Ling Han to eat outside. The happiest thing is Tianbao, drooling as he walks.

"Brother Ling, this is the most famous restaurant in Wind Chime City! the craftsmanship of the master here is superb, and he will definitely not disappoint you!" he said, his eyes flashing as he looked at Lu Qiong with a happy face.

Liao Quan pointed out, several people came to a restaurant, the left and right four flagpoles each hung a wine banner, showing the extraordinary strength of the restaurant, the main entrance on the second floor of the eaves under the door plaque is written in regular script three big characters "Fengyulou", the payment is Shen Ao. I saw people coming and going in front of the restaurant, and the business was booming.

"Liao Gongzi!Yo Yo! What kind of wind is this today! Miss Shen is here! Please come inside!" A few people didn't wait to enter the door, and Xiao Er smiled all over his face, nodded and came up to receive him.

When the shopkeeper heard this, he hurriedly put down the work in his hand and greeted him: "Young Master Liao, Miss Shen, please go upstairs, there is a place near the window upstairs!"

"Shopkeeper Tong is rich! business is so good!" Liao Quan also said with a smile.

"Thanks to the care of Master Liao and Gongzi, there is a small shop today, several distinguished guests come here, Xiao Ke's face is bright, what to eat, count it as mine!"

A few mermaids went upstairs, and the shopkeeper Tong and Xiao Er lowered their heads and whispered a few words, and then followed. Most of the guests downstairs showed respectful expressions when they saw these people, and a few young boys were muttering in a low voice: "Miss Shen is really beautiful and beautiful!"

"Tsk! yes! It's a pity that we don't have that blessing!"

"That Liao Quan is not easy to mess with, now he is the commander of the city, I heard that when he was fifteen years old, he killed the pirate leader Ichiro!"

"It seems that the Shen Liao family is going to be in-laws again!"

Lu Qiong's ears were sharp, and when she heard a few words, she was so ashamed that she quietly glanced at the back of the handsome boy in front of her, feeling that Liao Quan was becoming more and more majestic. Ling Han looked at it, and couldn't help but feel a little ashamed of himself, indeed, he was not as tall as Liao Quan, although he was also very good-looking, but his face was always pale, obviously not very healthy, compared with Liao Quan's bright sunshine, he could only look like a little follower.

"Come on, Brother Ling, please take a seat, this side is by the window and the street, you can enjoy the prosperity of the street while tasting delicious food. "Liao Quan is very enthusiastic.

"Brother Liao is the master, please take a seat!" Ling Hanqian said.

"Brother Ling, we are all young people, don't have so much red tape, just invite this seat!"

Ling Han saw that Liao Quan was indeed sincere, and it was not easy to refuse, so he sat in the seat by the window, and the rest of the people sat down in turn.

"Shopkeeper Tong! Let's order some food!" Liao Quan said.

"Liao Gongzi, forgive me! Xiao Ke has made his own decisions, the dishes have been ordered to the kitchen! This is the soaked Longjing, you should clear your mouth first!"

"Shopkeeper Tong is really troubled!" Liao Quan said.

"This is as it should be, I'm afraid that Gongzi Liao and Miss Shen won't appreciate their faces! Miss Gongzi, please use it slowly, if you have any orders, just call me." I'll go down first."

After a while, Xiao Er served the dishes, first four side dishes on the table, and then eight big dishes, which were really birds and beasts, raw seafood, everything.

When Liao Quan saw it, his face seemed to glow red. Poured a full glass of wine for Ling Han and said, "Bo wine vegetarian dishes, please also invite Brother Ling Haihan!"

Ling Han said: "Brother Liao is serious, this, it's really too rich!" Although in private, Chef Huo has made a lot of delicious food for himself, but it is not something that can be eaten at one time, and it is also sneaky, this time it is nominally to invite himself, but in fact, it is to please Lu Qiong, this layer, Ling Han also knows, but it is not good to break it, so he has no knowledge. Squinting at Lu Qiong, she poured a full glass of wine, completely ignoring Xiaoyun's dissuasion, her eyes were full of joy. The most excited is Tianbao, holding a thigh and starting to gnaw, I don't know what animal it is, making my face greasy.

"Turn around slowly, serve!" Xiao Er shouted in a clear voice, and brought a silver plate with a silver lid on it, and put it on the table full of dishes. "The hall is full of gold and jade!

"Brother Ling, this "Golden Jade Full Hall" is the golden signboard of this "Fengyulou", which was ...... back then"

"When my ancestor Shen Ao defeated the pirates, rescued a chef from the pirates, is the founder of this "Fengyulou", he was grateful to Shen Ancestor for saving his life, and made this "golden jade hall" for the ancestors to taste, the ancestors were full of praise after tasting, this "Fengyulou" is the name of the ancestors. Lu Qiong interjected, "I've grown so big, it's the third time I've eaten this dish, and I'm still stained with your light!"

"Oh! There is a "hall full of gold and jade" here?" Ling Han exclaimed.

"Could it be that Brother Ling has eaten this dish before?" Liao Quanqi said.

"Well, the name is the same, I don't know if it's not!" Ling Han said.

I still remember that it was an unforgettable winter night, Ling Han was bullied by Ling Xiao again during the day, hiding in his cold little bed to wipe his tears. I only heard the sound of "tuk tuk" coming from the window of my room. Ling Han got out of bed and came to the window and asked, "Who!"

"It's me!" a deep, familiar voice.

Ling Han opened the window, and the cold wind outside blew in.

"Huo Ye!" Ling Han was a little excited, "It's just so late, what's the matter!"

Chef Huo put a finger to his mouth, "Be quiet, don't let people hear!

Ling Han jumped out of the window with a piece of clothing, and carefully walked around to Chef Huo's residence as he stuck to the root of the wall. Chef Huo is the head of the kitchen of the Ling Mansion, and his status in the Ling Mansion is not low, and he also lives in a separate house. When an old man and a young man entered the house, Ling Han smelled a strange fragrance, and Chef Huo turned the lamp, only to see a silver plate placed on the round table in the center of the room, with a lid on it.

Chef Huo beckoned mysteriously, motioned for Ling Han to sit down, and then opened the lid with a smile on his face.

As soon as Liao Quan took off the lid, a fragrance had already come to his nose! This aroma was rich but not fatty, like an empty valley orchid, and the aroma alone was enough to make people intoxicated.

"What does it smell like!"

"Yes, yes! I've never smelled anything like this!"

"It's the legendary Golden Jade Hall!"

"What's a house full of gold?"

"This ...... , I've only heard that this is the signature dish of "Fengyulou", but it is not something that can be eaten for money!"

"That is, Young Master Liao, Miss Shen can have this blessing!"

The guests downstairs were attracted by this strange and wonderful taste and looked upstairs.

The guests at the other tables upstairs seemed to have forgotten that they still had food to chew in their mouths, and they just inhaled the aroma in a daze. Even Tianbao put down the thighs in his hands, and his small eyes stared straight at this "golden jade hall".

"Brother Ling, please, Sister Qiong, please!" Liao Quan stretched out his hand and made an invitation gesture.

I saw the kumquat on the silver plate, rich and gorgeous, and a piece of white jade, crystal clear, a little green leaf dotted among them, like jade.

It is not the first time that Rao is a few people have seen this dish, and they still can't help but marvel at the exquisiteness of the plate and the attractiveness of the aroma.

"I'll try it first!" Tianbao picked up a golden piece of food and put it in his mouth, only to feel that the skin was crispy on the outside, and the inside was actually juicy, full of flavor. Suddenly, the little eyes seemed to grow larger, radiating bright light. "Hmmm! It's delicious, brother, you eat it!"

Although this "full of gold and jade" plate is not small, there are only ten gold and ten jade in it, and each person is enough

Two pieces, the so-called "gentleman's taste of food".

Ling Han also picked up a gold bar, and under the first product was the familiar taste, which was really authentic enough. I couldn't help but praise: "This master is a good craft!"

Liao Quan and Lu Qiong looked at each other and smiled, both feeling that there was light on their faces. A few people were not polite, and they all started chopsticks.

Ling Han put another piece of "white jade" in his mouth, the outside was glutinous and tender, and the inside was full of juice. "Hmmm......"

Ling Han frowned, as if he felt something was wrong.

Liao Quan was originally a fine person, but when he saw Ling Han frowning, he hurriedly asked, "What, Brother Ling, is there anything wrong?"

"Oh, it's nothing, it's just that this 'Yingyu' fire seems to owe a little!" Ling Han said.

"What's missing!" a thunderous voice sounded downstairs, only to hear a few hurried footsteps upstairs, and a man in an apron of about forty went straight to the window. "Where is lacking, who said?"

Before the person arrived, the sound came first, and the person had arrived, and the sound was like a roar. The man shouted, like a landslide, which shook everyone's ears for a while.

"Wuwei! Don't be unreasonable, don't be unreasonable! This is my guest!" At this time, the shopkeeper Tong ran up out of breath and grabbed this man called Wuwei.

"I don't care who it is! Dare to slander my cooking! I'm going to ask for it!"

"Young Master Liao, Miss Shen, don't blame me! This kid has this temper! Don't talk to him

General knowledge!" The shopkeeper Tong said while accompanying the smiling face, "Wuwei, go downstairs!"

Who knows the five flavors, "swish" pulled out a kitchen knife, flew up and down left and right, dazzling, and then "boom" and inserted it on the wooden table.

"Yo he! I'm going to come to Quan Wuxing!" Liao Quan's face was a little unbearable, and his fair face was instantly dyed with a trace of evil energy.

"If you don't make it clear today, no one is allowed to leave!" Wuwei is very stubborn.

As soon as the diners saw the excitement, they crowded up to watch, and the staircase was also full of people.

"This cook doesn't seem to be easy to mess with!"

"It depends on who he messes with!"

"Yes, I angered Liao Gongzi, but there is no good fruit to eat, and I am not afraid of demolishing this "Fengyulou"!

"No one in this Wind Chime City has dared to talk to me like this!" Liao Quan was together, and a strong sense of oppression enveloped the entire second floor, and everyone suddenly felt a chill.

"Brother Liao, slow down!" Seeing this tension, Ling Han slowly stood up and said, "I said that this 'Yingyu' is slightly insufficient!"

"Oh, who are you? You actually know this 'Yingyu'?" Wuwei was also very surprised to see that Ling Han actually knew the name of this dish.

"In Xia Ling Han! I only know a little bit about this 'golden and jade hall', please advise me if it is wrong!"

"You say, if you dare to ruin my reputation and talk nonsense, don't blame me for being unkind!"

"This 'golden jade full of hall' gold is called 'kumquat', the color of gold-like orange, the homonym of 'auspicious' 'auspicious', the white is called 'Yingyu', the shape is like beautiful jade, the homonym of 'win or lose', a round party, on behalf of the sky round place, and the raw materials of "kumquat" are birds, take the flying dragon wild goose turtledove pigeon meat, although the poultry meat is fresh but firewood, you need to add duck fat chicken feet to boil over low heat, normally to boil for five hours, only take the soup and ice cubes to cool, and then make a ball, wrap the pollen essence noodles and fry them in the pot, so that they can be crispy on the outside and the juice inside. The raw materials of this 'Yingyu' are all seafood, take scallops and green shrimp with scallops and boil them to make a square, and wrap them with potato flour and glutinous rice flour on the outside to make them fresh on the inside. Ling Han paused.

I saw that everyone listened attentively, but they didn't expect that this seemingly simple dish would consume such a variety of ingredients and such a complicated process, and everyone kept smashing their mouths, as if they had tasted the delicious taste of this "full of gold and jade" in Ling Han's explanation.

"I cooked this dish! Naturally, I know how to make it! I still need to use you to be long-winded! You just need to say that my dish is not good!" The five flavors were like thunder, and they shook everyone's ears.

"This dish is very complicated to make, but this brother can make it in half an hour, and the taste is not made in advance, which is very amazing!" Ling Han said.

Hearing this, Wuwei's bearded face turned pale, "Even if you kid still has a little knowledge, this is my use of internal force to encourage the fire, and it is still a small fire, but the speed has increased, so that this can be done in half an hour!"

"Huo Shi...... Or the problem is here, if there is no 30 years of internal force cultivation, it is impossible to control the heat of this firing, if you forcibly use internal force to mature, the aftertaste of this dish will be slightly stiff! Therefore, although the taste of this dish is good, it is only not in the mouth of connoisseurs!"

Hearing this, Wuwei couldn't help but sweat coldly, because more than ten years ago, his master had also told him, when he was in his early thirties, his blood was strong, and he thought that he had done his master's cooking skills, so he fired this "golden jade hall" for the master to taste, when he looked at the master with hope and tasted his own craftsmanship, the master gave himself a slap in the face: "Wuwei, your internal strength cultivation is not up to the short time to burn this 'golden jade full hall', and you can only practice Xu Tu after you have been practicing internal strength for 18 years, otherwise, you will embarrass yourself!"

At that time, I was just thinking in my heart: Master is really old and confused! After that, it was fired a few times, and the guests who tasted it were all impressed. It wasn't until I met Ling Han today that Master's words came true!

Wuwei's face turned from white to red, from red to purple, from purple to black, just a beard, others can't see it, but in his heart, he can't wait to find a crack in the ground to get into.

Suddenly, Wuwei dodged and approached Ling Han.

"Don't!"

"You dare!"
