Chapter 3 Recruitment of Chefs
At this time, the storyteller in the center of the platform was saying, "Legend has it that 100,000 years ago, in the Great War of the Six Realms, His Majesty the Heavenly Emperor of the Upper Three Realms used the power of the First Realm to face the siege of the Alliance Army of the Underworld and the Demon Second Realm! ......”
"This battle lasted for 30,000 years, and at that time, the Six Realms were full of life and war! Even the rain in the sky turned red! ”
"Seeing that the last elite of the Heavenly Realm will be wiped out one by one in this Great War of the Six Realms, and in the end, there is no way, the Queen of Heaven used the ancient artifact to 'seal the Heavenly Seal', and used herself as a sacrifice to seal the Upper Three Realms."
"So far, the Upper Three Realms, the Three Realms of Heaven, the Three Realms of Hell, and the Three Realms of Demons have withdrawn from the flood of history, and only the Lower Three Realms are left in the world, the Three Realms of Demons, Humans, and Ghosts."
"This is the end of the War of the Six Realms!"
It's the legend of the Great War of the Six Realms again.
Su Xiaoqi has come all the way, I don't know how many times I have listened to it, almost every teahouse will say it, and at the beginning of listening to it, she felt quite tasteful.
But after listening to it too much, she felt bored, the Great War of the Six Realms, how many thousands of years ago, who still knows whether it is true or not? It's just a legend.
After eating the steamed bun in his hand, Su Xiaoqi drank the remaining tea in the tea bowl and swallowed the steamed bun blocked in his throat with difficulty.
This steamed bun, if you are not careful, will definitely choke people to death.
Su Xiaoqi thought hatefully.
"Boss, how much?"
"The guest officer has eaten? A bowl of tea and a steamed bun, a total of two pennies, only two worlds of treasure. ”
The owner of the tea shop was an old man who looked quite energetic, and when he saw that Su Xiaoqi was about to settle the bill, he raised two fingers with a smile.
The treasure of the two worlds refers to the money and silver that can circulate in the two worlds of people and demons.
Su Xiaoqi has been here for more than a month, so she naturally knows what these two realms treasure are, so she put down two and left.
Walking aimlessly on the streets, most of the buildings on both sides of the street are Chinese-style wooden buildings, ranging from two to three floors, and the highest building is only five floors.
Militian is very prosperous, every street is full of traffic, and people come and go.
It's just that this prosperous scene doesn't seem to have anything to do with her, her journey, from the demon world to the human world, is very hard, asking for money without money, food without food, and guarding against wanted warrants, as well as chasing soldiers from all walks of life.
Fortunately, she is smart enough, and the dangers along the way have been resolved by her one by one, even if she is swaggering on the street at the moment, she will no longer cower.
But all the way away, she is indeed a little tired, the world is so big, why is it home?
Especially in this world full of cultivators, how can she survive as a cook?
Hey, she thinks she's too hard......
As he was walking, a group of people suddenly came from the other side of the street, dressed in uniform long gray robes, each carrying a sword with a cold glow on their backs.
"Look, it's the exorcist masters of Xuanyun Palace! Ah, so majestic, so handsome......"
"Yes, Master Exorcist, are you going out of the city?"
"I don't know? I don't think I've heard of any monsters lately. ”......
The people on the side of the road all looked at this group of people with admiration and whispered to each other.
Su Xiaoqi had heard the name of an exorcist, but she had never seen a real exorcist, and suddenly a group of living exorcists appeared in front of her, her eyes widened curiously, wanting to see what kind of demeanor the much-praised exorcists here had.
Exorcist is not an honorific title, but a profession, but the people who undertake this profession are all people, the best among the cultivators of the two demon realms.
The exorcist is like the police on the earth, but the police catch criminals, and the exorcist gets rid of monsters that have lost their minds after being infected by demonic energy, leaving only the instinct of brutal slaughter.
Because they are responsible for protecting the safety of the water and soil, exorcists are not only in the human world, but also in the demon world.
Su Xiaoqi stared at this group of people curiously, and found that they were really young and dignified, no wonder they attracted the attention of those girls.
It's just that this group of people didn't stop because of the attention of passers-by, they quickly walked to the bulletin board in front of the street, quickly pasted a notice, and left immediately after posting, without dragging the mud and water.
The notice posted by the exorcist immediately attracted the attention of the people around him, and they quickly surrounded him, including Su Xiaoqi.
Fortunately, the characters here are the same as the Chinese traditional Chinese of ancient China, and Su Xiaoqi can understand its meaning after reading it several times.
However, Su Xiaoqi's small body was squeezed into the outermost, and she did not have a proud altitude height, which directly caused her to stand on the periphery and not see the content of this notice at all.
Fortunately, someone in the inner area directly recited it aloud.
"Notice:
Xuanyun Hall recruits a chef, who is mainly responsible for the exorcist's daily diet, including breakfast, noon, evening and irregular meals.
Requirements: Adult male, good at cooking, in good health, if the cooking skills are superb, the demand can be appropriately relaxed.
Treatment: You can take four days off in a month, and you can take ten dollars of silver per month and pass the treasure of the two worlds.
Candidates can come to Xuanyun Hall tomorrow for an interview and need to bring a homemade snack. ”
"Hey, Xuanyun Hall is going to recruit a cook again! How many times this month? ”
A passer-by scratched his head and crossed his fingers to count.
"It's the fifth time!"
Another aunt gave a straightforward and refreshing answer.
"Although the exorcists are all very powerful, their mouths are really picky!"
"The food made by ordinary people will definitely not satisfy the tastes of adults! Unless there's a chef! ”
"Yes, but since the fall of the Ancestor of Food, the line of chefs has declined, who still practices cooking these years, even the Culinary Academy has been closed down for at least 10,000 years, and there are fewer and fewer chefs in the world."
"Hey, let's not pursue those, delicious food is luxury, as long as it can fill your stomach!"
"Hey......"
Everyone couldn't help sighing, but Su Xiaoqi's eyes lit up, and someone sent a pillow if he really wanted to fall asleep.
She didn't know where she was going just now, and someone was looking for a chef!
Don't dare to say anything else, she is the best in cooking.
Tomorrow's interview, great!
Yes, she has to make a homemade snack, Su Xiaoqi hurriedly thought of a way, she first had to find a place to live, preferably with a kitchen, and then she had to buy materials!
Wow, there's a lot to do!
Su Xiaoqi left happily, she was clever, and directly found an inn near Xuanyun Hall to stay, and said hello to the boss when she checked in, wanting to rent a small kitchen for ten yuan for an hour.
Because the time she rented was not the time for meals, at most a little firewood was wasted, so the boss readily agreed.
When these were determined, Su Xiaoqi looked for the location of the vegetable market that he had inquired about early in the morning.
When I came to the entrance of the vegetable market, an indescribable stench came to my face.
There are all kinds of rotten leaves, fruits, rotten meat, unwanted offal, dirty water, etc. on the ground.
This vegetable market is too dirty and smelly!
Su Xiaoqi couldn't help but cover his nose and walked forward with difficulty among the various small vendors.
Because she thought that Xuanyun Hall was full of noble exorcists, there were more men and fewer women, and most of the men's tastes liked meat, so she planned to make the simplest honey roast chicken for this homemade snack.
Often the simplest dishes are the most difficult to use.
It's just that when Su Xiaoqi walked to the stall selling poultry, he was directly dumbfounded.
She looked at the various birds that were kept in cages, and this ...... What is this?
No chickens, no ducks, no pigeons, no quails.......
Not a single poultry she knew!
Instead, there are all kinds of large birds with dazzling feathers.
Some look like peacocks, and the feathers on their tails are as long as they mop the floor.
Some of them are like chickens, but the feathers on their bodies are colorful, and there is no place with the unpretentious appearance of chickens.
There is also an even more exaggerated, looking like a huge version of a macaw, also with colorful feathers, but it should not be able to speak.
Su Xiaoqi looked back and forth many times, and she found that most of the birds here have long and dazzling feathers, and this kind of bird is used for ornamentation on the earth.
I never thought I would eat such a beautiful bird.
Su Xiaoqi retreated a little.
A vendor next to him saw Su Xiaoqi looking back and forth in front of the stall, so he greeted warmly, "Little brother, do you want to buy birds?" What do you want? Tender, bouncy, or tender and bouncy? ”
Su Xiaoqi looked confused, is this how you buy poultry here?
She didn't understand, but she thought about the texture of the chicken and said, "Is there a variety that is suitable for grilling?" ”
"Grilled?" The peddler's eyes suddenly became a little weird, "Little brother, your request is a bit strange, is it because you want to go out of the city to do a task?" But even so, you should buy some cooked food to make it easy to carry, do you want to buy a raw bird to go out? That's too slow, there are crises everywhere outside the city, how can I have time to roast a bird for you! ”
After exchanging a few words, Su Xiaoqi realized that the traditional cooking method here does not say that roasting is not such a thing as roasting at all, and the only thing that can roast food is in the wild, and the conditions are poor, so it is possible to directly put the ingredients on the fire and roast them.
That's why the hawker asked so much before.
After Su Xiaoqi understood, he didn't ask so anymore, and said directly to the vendor, "Then bring me two birds with a tender and elastic taste, they don't need to be very big, just be about the same size as this one." ”
She pointed to a short-haired bird in a cage and motioned for it to be that big.
"Okay, little brother, wait, one is ten cents, two are twenty cents, and the two realms are treasures."
The peddler neatly grabbed two birds about the size of a chicken from another cage and handed them directly to Su Xiaoqi.
Su Xiaoqi was a little heartbroken, after paying the twenty yuan, she only had less than two hundred yuan left.
She must be admitted, otherwise she will really have to drink the northwest wind.
