Lan Xiaoqiu realized that the delicacies on his body had fallen out at some point.

"I got it by accident, and I heard that it is a rare book in the world." Lan Xiaoqiu took the delicacies and carefully put them away.

"Do you know the recipe?" The old man asked.

"Old man, you can't look down on people so much, although I am from pastry, but the world's cooks are a family, and the places where they fight and work together are the same, haven't you ever eaten pork and never seen a pig run?" Lan Xiaoqiu was a little excited.

The old man sighed: "I said, can you understand the recipe in this book?" ”

Lan Xiaoqiu scratched his head: "Now I can recognize many words." ”

Lan Xiaoqiu has simplified words since elementary school, and he really doesn't know much about these traditional ancient languages, but living in this era, he must integrate into this era, so Lan Xiaoqiu has devoted himself to learning, and he has also understood some words, and occasionally he can recite two ancient words.

The old man said, "Show me the book." ”

Lan Xiaoqiu was not wary either, and handed the book to the old man.

The old man casually flipped the page: "What kind of dish do you say this is written on?" ”

Lan Xiaoqiu laughed disapprovingly and said, "Old man, it turns out that you are not very literate, this is obviously the practice of writing pork." Dry-fried tenderloin, this kind of dish, is too ordinary. ”

When Lan Xiaoqiu saw the recipe of these four words, he skipped it, not to mention the cook, even ordinary people don't need to learn how to make it.

The old man had some complaints about Lan Xiaoqiu's attitude: "It's obviously a vegetarian dish written on it, how can you say it's meat?" ”

When Lan Xiaoqiu heard this, he took the book and looked back, and sure enough, the title page in front of him was a vegetarian dish.

Lan Xiaoqiu wrinkled his brows, thought for a long time, then nodded, and said solemnly: "I know, he wrote it wrong." ”

“……”

The old man turned another page, and Lan Xiaoqiu saw that it was West Lake beef soup, which was also divided into vegetarian dishes.

Lan Xiaoqiu couldn't cry or laugh: "Hey, this person who wrote the book is really careless." ”

The old man was angry when he heard it, and gave Lan Xiaoqiu a chestnut: "This book is really not for you." ”

When Lan Xiaoqiu heard this, she seemed to understand something: "Old man, do you have any relationship with this book?" ”

"This book was handed down by my father."

Hearing this, Lan Xiaoqiu seemed to understand something, although the old man's cooking skills were not revealed, but Lan Xiaoqiu had eaten the food cooked by the old man, which was light but very delicious, and even the question when cooking made people drool.

Lan Xiaoqiu asked, "Are you Shen Zhi drunk?" Then why isn't this book with you? ”

The old man nodded: "It seems that you have heard the story of this book, and I am indeed Shen Zhidrunk." ”

"You've been hiding here for more than thirty years to escape arrest?"

The old man sighed: "I'm not just trying to escape, I just don't want to step into the mortal world again, I hurt a girl, I want to die for her, and I am also a prisoner of the imperial court, out of here, I'm afraid I will still sit in prison." ”

Hearing this, Lan Xiaoqiu laughed: "Are you afraid that I will go out and tell others that you are Shen Zhidrunk?" Are you afraid that I will denounce you? ”

The old man didn't speak, Lan Xiaoqiu sighed: "Don't worry, your previous wanted warrant is estimated to no longer exist in this world, the previous dynasty has been destroyed for thirty years, and now it has changed the dynasty." ”

After Shen Zhidrunk heard this, he asked, "What?" A change of dynasty? ”

Lan Xiaoqiu said: "Of course, it's the Qi Dynasty now. ”

The old man sat on the straw fiercely, he didn't seem to think that he was not violated by the imperial court for a long time, the old man sat on the straw and cried for a while, laughed for a while, and the frightened Lan Xiaoqiu didn't know what to do.

Maybe Lan Xiaoqiu can understand, because of an unknown misunderstanding and let himself hide from the world for more than 30 years, and every day he is worried that he will be denounced, and live in a cave that does not see the light of day all day, Lan Xiaoqiu suddenly felt that Shen Zhi was very pitiful, Lan Xiaoqiu said: "The old man might as well go out of the mountain with me." ”

Lan Xiaoqiu took Shen Zhizui out of the mountain, and the two walked on the road, and Shen Zhizui gave Lan Xiaoqiu the delicacies.

Lan Xiaoqiu was ashamed: "This book was originally yours, you take it back, this is an item left to you by your father." ”

"What are you going to call me now?" Shen Zhizui asked.

"Old man? Uncle? Old man? Lan Xiaoqiu didn't know what to call it, and finally she arched her hand and said, "Master Shen." ”

This sentence made Shen Zhizui laugh heartily: "I gave you this book, you can call me Master in the future." ”

Lan Xiaoqiu took the delicacies, looking at the master in front of her, she felt that she was about to kill both Chinese and Western food, the master in modern times was the most famous pastry chef in China, and now she found the most famous master in ancient times, Lan Xiaoqiu suddenly felt that God treated her well.

Shen Zhizui walked on the road, it was clearly the sun he saw every day, but Shen Zhizui's eyes were very different, not to mention the pedestrians on the road, his limp attracted the attention of countless people, but he also seemed to see strange things, but he walked for a long time on such a short road.

Lan Xiaoqiu could only arrange Shen Zhizui in the inn, and he couldn't take him back to the Fang family, after all, Fang Hao recognized him.

Thinking of Fang Hao, Lan Xiaoqiu suddenly understood, maybe Fang Hao already knew his identity, the old man didn't say anything about it, Fang Hao was the kind of person who gave him a secret and he could keep it in the coffin, thinking of someone like Fang Hao being a priest or something, it was also suitable.

Lan Xiaoqiu sent Shen Zhizui into the room, settled Shen Zhizui, gave him all the silver on his body, and turned around to leave.

Shen Zhizui stopped her and said, "As your master, should I teach you something?" ”

Lan Xiaoqiu scratched her head: "It's a long time coming, and I'm not in the kitchen now, how can I teach it?" ”

"I'll teach you the same, with this, you are my real disciple of the Shen family, if I can't teach you in the future, you can learn well yourself."

Lan Xiaoqiu didn't understand what Shen Zhidrunk meant, and thought: You just recognize me as an apprentice and only teach me the same?

Seeing Lan Xiaoqiu's careful thinking, Shen Zhizui asked Lan Xiaoqiu to take out the book, he pointed to the recipe on the book and said: "Actually, reading this book is to have a secret, not to understand it according to the meaning of the book, do you see it here?" ”

Shen Zhizui pointed to a passage in the book, in a very inconspicuous position, Lan Xiaoqiu actually saw a number, it should be said to be two words, it was written wanton, seeing this number, Shen Zhizui said: "When you get to this position, you have to turn to the second page to find it." ”

Shen Zhidrunk flipped to the point and pointed to a passage with an asterisk: "Add this passage to it and it will be a secret recipe." ”

Lan Xiaoqiu found that the paragraph was about how to marinate tofu, so that the tofu exudes the taste of meat, and it tastes no different from the pickling process of meat.

Only then did Lan Xiaoqiu understand what a strange book is, if this book falls into the hands of ordinary people, it will be difficult to discover the secrets.

Shen Zhi drunkenly said: "This book actually looks no different from ordinary recipes, but each dish has one or two unknown secrets, with this secret, you can cook unusual dishes, so, let me tell you the secret of this book, you can study it yourself." ”

Only then did Lan Xiaoqiu understand that it turned out that the hidden mystery of this book, Shen Zhi's drunken words were like a hammer, smashing a layer of plexiglass attached to the outside of the gem, allowing Lan Xiaoqiu to see something more dazzling.

Lan Xiaoqiu was very grateful, and she suddenly felt that fate was really something that could not be found, maybe she wouldn't see the old man if she didn't go to Yeshan, and if she didn't pass by Yeshan and wanted to see the old man, she wouldn't know that he was Shen Zhidrunk, all of this was so wonderful, if each recipe had such a secret, it would be completely able to dominate the food world.

Lan Xiaoqiu treasured the books, and as soon as she came out of the room, she was startled, and when she saw that it was Aunt Jin standing at her door, Lan Xiaoqiu pulled Aunt Jin and said, "Aunt Jin, why are you here?" ”

Aunt Jin pouted and complained a little: "Where have you been, I can't find you." ”

Lan Xiaoqiu said: "I met an old friend, so I chatted a little more. ”

Aunt Jin pulled Lan Xiaoqiu and said, "Can you take me out?" ”

Lan Xiaoqiu thought for a while and said, "If you promise to be obedient, I will take you out, and I can also take you to see my master." ”

Aunt Jin clapped her hands and danced when she heard this.

The next day, Lan Xiaoqiu was about to take Aunt Jin out, but Aunt Jin had a white veil on her face, only revealing her two eyes, and Aunt Jin said: "The people in the capital will kill me, I can't show my face." ”

Lan Xiaoqiu looked at Aunt Jin, but felt that she was not stupid at all, she still knew that she was masked when she went out, and she remembered that someone wanted to seek revenge on her. But Lan Xiaoqiu thinks how can a woman of her age still have hatred with others? It must be that she is a bit of a persecution paranoia.

Lan Xiaoqiu really took Aunt Jin to the master, and after Shen Zhizui learned about Aunt Jin's situation, he also understood, Lan Xiaoqiu, who was not a person from this era and country at all, actually acted as a tour guide for the two ancient people, and she took Shen Zhizui and Aunt Jin to go on a tour of the mountains and rivers.

Although the weather is a little cold, many places are still very lively, especially the bazaar, which is close to the end of the year, and there are many New Year's goods in the bazaar, and the whole capital is full of pieces of fiery red.

"Aunt Jin, shall I buy you rock sugar gourds to eat?" Lan Xiaoqiu asked, pointing to the one selling rock sugar gourd.

Aunt Jin nodded happily: "Okay, I want to eat." ”

Lan Xiaoqiu looked at Shen Zhizui with inquiring eyes, and Shen Zhizui put his hands behind his back: "Ahem, that's what my daughter's family eats." ”

Lan Xiaoqiu went alone but brought two back, Shen Zhizui saw that she gave one to Aunt Jin, and the other couldn't wait to take a bite, Shen Zhizui said disdainfully: "You are a man now, how can you be like a child?" ”

Lan Xiaoqiu smiled: "With the way I look now, no matter what I do, there will be people cheering for me." I saw Lan Xiaoqiu waving a rock sugar gourd at the girls passing by, but there was really the laughter of the girls.

Lan Xiaoqiu turned around and asked, "Master, let me say it......"

The expression on Lan Xiaoqiu's face suddenly froze with Shen Zhizui's eyes, because Shen Zhizui had been staring at Aunt Jin, and at this time, Aunt Jin was lifting the corner of the veil and eating rock sugar gourd......
