Chapter 136: Cooking (Transition)

The rich smell of fish soup was permeated, and from time to time Ailu Cat opened the lid of the pot and threw something into it that Lei Ming didn't know at all, and every time he opened the lid, the steaming heat was like a powerful fist of a demon breaking the seal on Lei Ming's nose, hitting his heart.

Thankfully, he's not the only one, all the elves look like this.

The surrounding grass was quietly shaking, and the thunderbeast snorted to signal that the thunder didn't care, and under its detection, the surrounding creatures were all invisible, and it seemed that there were no creatures worth fighting.

The songbird is still looking around on the high branches, don't look at its usual unreliable appearance, in fact, as long as it involves its companions, it is a very reliable baby.

The massive body of the skeleton spider was blocked behind Thunder like a wall, and any malice from behind needed to pass through it.

As for the three children, they were happily adding firewood, and Ailu had already taken the rabbit to clean it.

"Meow, master, please pay attention too!"

The floating Elu returned, and two skinny bunnies dangled above its head.

"Ah, what's wrong?"

Lei Ming, who was immersed in the aroma, looked confused.

"Meow, with so much firewood, the fire can't be burned."

Eru pointed to the earthen stove, and it was indeed not quite the way it was smoking.

Following its finger, Sanxiao retreated, and the excess firewood in the earthen stove flew out and was set up next to it.

"The two rabbits are so thin, they are surrounded by grass and eat so thin, they are too lazy to be pitiful!"

"After all, you can't run when you're full!" Lei Ming said with a smile.

"Meow, can't they outrun the other elves without being full!" Eru retorted with a wink.

Thunder: "......"

It seems that I really can't run away!

"Meow, since you can't run away, why don't you let yourself eat more!"

Eru manipulated the rabbit with telekinesis, then rolled over the flames.

The rabbit tumbling out of thin air scattered a bunch of oil splashes, and the flames of the fire leaped violently.

"Maybe you don't want your opponent to be fed!" After a long time, Lei Ming whispered.

The stronger the aroma, the more their stomachs growled, and Lei Ming took out the fish sticks and distributed them to the elves, but he felt even hungrier after eating that amount.

The grass around them shook even faster, and a Korakola stood up with a bone stick.

"It's the strongest elf in the world?"

"Meow, courage is commendable!"

The Thunder Beast, the Skeleton Spider, and the Songbird all stared at it with wide eyes, and it was obvious that the creature was shrinking back.

"Quack!" (Cowards dare to come and grab things!) The songbird scoffed.

The wings of his nose under his helmet twitched visibly, and he took out his big bone stick and gestured at it, then turned and ran.

Everyone was stunned for a moment and then laughed collectively, and after laughing, the thunder beast raised its head to the sky and roared angrily, intimidating the Quartet, and the grass fell silent.

"Okay, okay, just get out of the way, you don't have to do this." Thunder stopped everyone with a press of his hand.

"Meow, the soup will simmer for a while."

"It's already fragrant!"

Suddenly, the thunderbeast's head was facing one direction, and its throat was low, and Thunder knew that this was the sign that it was not sure of its mind.

The chirpin flew up the branch and looked in that direction, and after a while it also screamed "quack", and the sound was full of reminders but not the intention of expulsion.

"Is there anyone here too?"

At this moment, Ai Lu Cat felt something, and closed her eyes slightly, "Meow, not only is there a person, it doesn't look weak, he has a super energy plus water elf guarding him by his side." ”

The grass parted, and a big blue duck came out, yes, it was the Gotha duck.

A kind of pure water in the attribute, but the super energy behind the scenes, the thief elf, no wonder Ailu cat will misjudge.

Now, standing in front of Lei Ming, the Gotha duck paw was flying next to a small folding stool, a portable oven, a small pot, and a black cloth bag.

He was followed by a thin old man carrying a fishing rod bag and a small bucket in his hand, the old man was very thin but full of energy, his face was ruddy, and his hair was only gray and thick.

He first saw the gurgling pot and the Eru cat floating in the air, and the second saw thunder.

I've confirmed my eyes, and I'm a person who loves to eat.

It just popped up out of nowhere, and the two sides didn't know what to say for a while.

But seeing that the old man took a deep breath, "The cooking is very good, and the soup is even seasoned with the leaves of the gro tree, which alone shows that the effort is very sufficient, but the fly in the ointment is that it is actually used farmed puffer fish, which is not worthy of this skill." ”

Thunder and Elu looked at each other, and Thunder said, "No way, wild ones are not something ordinary people can buy." ”

Wild puffer fish have evolved a special toxin, which accumulates toxins in the sac by eating poisonous food, just like raising Gu, and the toxins of each wild puffer fish are different.

Once its poison sac is unable to hold the toxin, it will burst and kill the puffer fish itself.

Wild puffer fish is also the first creature discovered to poison itself.

"That's a pity, it's a pity that such a good cook, it's a pity that it's such a rare elf!" The old man has some pity.

"Why can't I do it?" Lei Ming asked jokingly.

"We chefs can't smell anyone's body, you can know that there is no fresh smell of ingredients on your body, you are a eater, and this cat-like elf among you has the freshness of ingredients."

"Tsk, I've always heard that some elves can cook, but this is the first time I've seen it, and the cooking skills are still so good."

Chef!

"Grandpa, meeting is fate, why don't we have a light meal together!"

"Okay, but it's irreverent, I've always wanted to try the elven craft." The old man sat down unceremoniously, and Gotha Duck looked helpless, but he still opened the folding stool with his mental power and put it over.

"I won't eat your food for nothing, old man, let you taste my craft!"

As he spoke, the portable oven was automatically placed, "Borrow a fire." ”

Eru pointed to the fire, and a pile of lit matches jumped up and ran to the bottom of the pot.

There was a moment of trance in Lei Ming's eyes, this kind of scene looked like a fairy tale!

The old man put down the bucket and skillfully fished out a kind of silver-scaled fish, but the size of a palm, the scales were as fine as sesame, he opened the cloth bag and took out the kitchen knife and began to deal with it, the snow bright knife light was tender white fish, "Silver scaly fish, the most suitable for frying small fish, with sauce and green vegetables, the taste is changeable, and you will never get tired of eating it." ”

"Meow, can I add fruit?" Elu Cat couldn't help but say.

The next second, Elu covered her mouth. Thunder shook his head at it, no longer covering his mouth.

"Yes!" The old man glanced up at Elu Cat, and there was no look of surprise in his eyes.

The old man processed it quickly, and the silver-scaled fish was simply fried with salt and oil, but the fish soup with a gurgling aroma was enough to make people swallow their tongues.

The craftsmanship is excellent, and Elu Cat expressed her admiration.

A few elves didn't fall behind, and they first stuffed the energy cube to a full stomach, and then began to taste the deliciousness.

Food pulls into the relationship between people, and after the meal, the Gotha duck and the other elves mingle, holding a soup bowl and a toast to the thunder beast.

The old man took a sip of the fish soup and let out a contented sigh, "Beautiful! ”

"Unexpected beauty, unbelievable cooking."

"It's the perfect meal."

"Meow, is the gap in the wild puffer fish?" Eru asked.

"No, it stands to reason that the rest is game, but the farmed puffer fish lacks a trace of wildness, which should have been a flaw......" The old man looked at Ailu with burning eyes.

"Meow, it's a pity." Elu Cat was a little lost.

"No, I'm talking about the original."

The old man's face was a little frustrated, "Your cooking skills and selection of ingredients make up for this, but for me, it is the silver scale fish that is holding me back, and such a delicious soup is paired with dishes like side dishes, which is really not enough!" ”

"Kitty, would you be interested in visiting my kitchen?"

"Meow, kitchen?"

"Yes, I've had a lot of masters in my kitchen, but I haven't had an elf who cooks so well. I've been the best at making fish in my life, and it's best to have talking cat-like elves to taste my craft. ”

Elu's eyes drifted to thunder.

Lei Ming looked at the longing in Ailu's cat eyes and smiled slightly, "But it's disrespectful!" ”

"Okay, do you have time tomorrow?"

"Anytime!"

"Okay, No. 48 Qingwan Road is my home, I will be waiting at any time tomorrow morning, duckling, let's go, go back and prepare materials."

The old man didn't drag the mud and water, and left with his things, and the Gotha duck reluctantly dried up the soup in one bite, bowed to everyone, and ran away with his mind.

Their figures disappeared into the distance.

Elu Cat suddenly said, "Meow, I was just excited......"

"It's okay, let's say it openly in the future, we already have the confidence, I am the messenger of the divine beast among those people in charge!"

Lei Ming smiled faintly, it didn't matter if he pulled the tiger skin and flickered around.

"Meow!"

"By the way, the old man just said what his name was!"

"Meow, no!"

Thunder: "......"

Elu: "......"

"Meow, then, shall we go then?"

"Go, of course I'm going, it's rare to meet such a chef, so naturally I can't let it go!" Lei Ming gently patted Ailu's head and said.

"Meow, the old man's cooking skills are very high, I look forward to it." (Star Eye)

"yes!"

Lei Ming licked his teeth unconsciously, and recalled the taste of the silver-scaled fish just now, which was extremely delicious and indeed unforgettable.

…………

In the early morning of the next day, Lei Ming and Ailu Cat, who were carrying two bags of fruits and several boxes of health products, stood in front of the door of No. 48 Qingwan Road and fell into deep thought.

"Elu Cat, we shouldn't have gone the wrong way!" Lei Ming looked at the door number and said with a painful face.

"Meow, obviously, we didn't go wrong."

Elucat's answer ruthlessly shattered Thunder's illusions.

The building in front of me is a water building, and it is an antique kind of wooden building, the shape of the wooden building is very unique, and the wood used should be very expensive, otherwise you will not be able to smell the wood fragrance when you stand there.

However, there is a wooden plaque hanging on it - Secret Fish Fragrance Private Dish.

As we all know, private dishes represent expensive and reservations, of course, those restaurants with the name of private dishes are not counted, and the real private dishes have masters in charge and signature dishes that can be called killers.

I didn't expect the place where the old man invited them to be a private restaurant, but thinking about the old man's cooking skills, it is understandable.

However, the small print below the plaque is a little wrong.

The word that is smaller than the above line is three numbers: Pond Fish Museum Branch - Special Designated Venue.

This......

Have you finally come across a gym like Hualan Gym?

It's a pity it's not a water show!

Thunder sighed.

The evaluation of the Chiyu Gym on the Internet is average, just saying that its Hu Xing Pavilion is constantly operating, but how much is it, many people are tight-lipped, and there is a kind of meaning that we are not spared if we are offended.

Out of the idea of long-term knowledge, Lei Ming included this in the scope of his challenge, which is normal, after all, the owner of the gym has a lot of tricks in his own gym, and the evaluation of the Chiyu Gym is not bad compared to those ghost gyms built in haunted houses and fighting gyms built in the stake array.

On the stairs at the door, the two welcoming ladies stood quietly, smiling decently, but they were also full of question marks.

What the hell is this guy here for?

Visiting relatives and friends?

But I didn't get notice!

Do you want to challenge the gym?

There are no people from the gym to carry it, and what does it mean to carry a bunch of gifts?

After hesitating for a while, Lei Ming still stepped forward with the gift.

"Hello sir, do you have an appointment?" The two welcoming ladies bowed and saluted.

"No, it's not." Lei Ming felt a little embarrassed, "I was invited to come." ”

"Who invited you?"

"It's an old man with a Gotha duck."

Lei Ming felt that the faces of the two welcoming ladies in front of him had changed, and their smiles were a little stiff.

Finally, the one on the left spoke, "Wait a minute, I'll go check it." ”

With that, she turned and trotted in the door.

This run was dozens of minutes, during which a family of three guests came, and the welcome lady opened the door to let them in with a simple salute, but her eyes kept glued to Lei Ming's body, as if she was looking at some rare animal.

This makes it even more embarrassing.

Fortunately, there were no guests coming over the next day.

Through the hollow carving on the wooden door, Lei Ming saw that the previous welcome lady was back, and at the same time, she was followed by a white dress.

The door opened.

The old man I saw yesterday stood at the door with an embarrassed expression.

"Sorry, I forgot to explain. When people came to inform me, I was preparing again, and they didn't dare to disturb me. ”

Of course, although he was apologizing, the old man said it to Ailu Cat, and it was obvious that the thunder was incidental.

The embarrassment of capitalization, but still the answer, because Elu Cat is a little overwhelmed.

"It's that we forgot to ask, and we came here today for the appointment."

At the mention of the agreement, the old man seemed to be very happy, turned around and opened the door himself, "Please come in."

The two welcoming ladies next to them seemed to be stunned, and the smiles on their faces couldn't be maintained.

"Please!"

Thunder Ming followed with Elu Cat, carrying gifts.

The old man was followed by the corridor on the left, not the corridor on the right where the group of guests in front of him walked.

The old man led the way in front, and the pace was very fast, "I forgot to introduce it yesterday, my surname is Hu, you can just call me Grandpa Hu." is the head chef of this private cuisine. ”

Is the surname Hu?

"This is my kitchen, and today I invite you to taste my craft, and I hope to give you some advice."

The closed wooden door slammed open.
