After everyone's answers, Yanfei shouted loudly: "The organizing committee and the notary both agree with this explanation!" The game continues! ”

At this time, Xiangling noticed that the state of Yanxiao on the other side was a little abnormal, and asked with some worry: "Yanxiao, are you okay?" ”

"I, I don't know what's wrong, I'm so nervous. Alas! Look at my shaky hands." Yan Xiao said this and sighed.

Xiangling smiled and said with relief: "Relax, I have also had this situation, I will teach you!" Silently recite tongue twisters in your mind, or... Remember your dad! ”

After listening to Xiangling's words, Yanxiao was a little puzzled: "Dad? Why is it so specific?"

Xiangling explained with a flat face: "Because I will remember my father." ”

"Lou!" Guoba was also cheering for him next to Yanxiao.

"Uh... Then I'll remember my mom... Oh yes, go get busy! I'm fine, I can't delay you because I'm wrong. ”

After listening to Yan Xiao's words, Xiangling said with a smile: "I can't delay, I'm done." ”

"Huh?! Then I can't afford to lose! Hearing Xiangling's relaxed tone, he was shocked and couldn't even take care of his nervousness.

Looking at Yan Xiao's reaction, Xiangling nodded with satisfaction: "Yes, yes, it's this kind of momentum!" Aren't you very capable? Take out your skills and laugh, the dishes you made last time were delicious! ”

"Yes, yes, I can!" After cheering himself up, Yan Xiao said seriously:

"Xiangling, and this... Belch... Anyway, thank you, I'm going to get to work! ”

"Lou!" Seeing the rekindled fighting spirit of Yanxiao, Guoba was very satisfied.

Yanxiao also began to speed up the production, and Xiangling saw that the dish that Yanxiao was cooking at this time was fairy jumping over the wall.

"Hmm, didn't Xiangling say that it was not good to be a fairy jumping over the wall during the game? Why are you doing it? Paimon asked, confused.

"Let you be obedient and don't listen to everything, Xiangling just said that the immortal jumping wall made so quickly did not have the taste of the immortal jumping over the wall that has been boiled for a few days, and it can still be eaten." Ying replied.

"Huh? Then I look like I'm smiling, how do I feel not much worse? Paimon scratched his head and said.

"How do I know? When the smile is ready, you can give it a try. Ying replied.

Hearing Ying's words, Paimon smiled and said, "yes, hehe, Keqing is really thoughtful, and we have all the quotas for the tasting." ”

"That's, otherwise why are you Liyue Seven Stars, and you're just a little flying pig who knows how to eat."

"Hmm, I'm so angry! How can you say that about me! It's all the fault of the tassel that gave me such a nickname. Paimon shouted angrily.

"I'm going to get one for her next time, fishing can't calm my anger at all, I must give her something more ugly."

Listening to Paimon's words, Ying turned her head to look at her, and said expressionlessly, "Paimon, forget it, people don't care about the nickname you take, it's you." ”

Paimon: "."

While Ying and Paimon were talking nonsense, time was passing fast, and Yanxiao had completed the preparation of the dishes within the stipulated time.

"It's time!"

After Yanfei waited for the time to come, he walked up to the stage and said, "Both contestants have finished their respective dishes. Next, the two contestants are invited to send the dishes to the judges' table and hand them over to the judges for appreciation. ”

Hearing Yanfei's voice, Xiangling and Yanxiao both brought the dishes they had prepared to the judges' seats.

Yanfei and the others finished placing the dishes and said to Xiangling: "According to the order of completion, first ask Xiangling to introduce her cuisine!" ”

"My dish is—"

Xiangling pointed to his dish and introduced: "The main dish is fragrant pepper and pepper chicken, the side dish is buckled with three threads, and the dim sum is crystal shrimp." ”

"The topic of the cuisine is the ritual of land and water, including the two major areas of sea and land, that is, animal meat, poultry meat, fish and shrimp are all optional ingredients."

"My main course, fragrant pepper chicken, is a combination of poultry and chili peppers, the jueyun pepper grows in the mountains, is the essence of the mountains, and the poultry meat is a gift from the sky."

The ingredients for the buckle are also poultry, as well as ham and bamboo shoots. It is also the charm of the mountains, spicy and fresh, hot and cool, two by two, which can echo with pepper chicken. ”

"As for this crystal shrimp dish, the ingredients are rice, shrimp and carrots. The thin crust is wrapped in diced carrots and whole shrimp, crispy and tender. ”

"Shrimp is a gift from the sea, tightly wrapped in a skin made of rice, blended with sea and land, and slightly sweetened with umami. It's a fitting end to the menu. ”

When Xiangling was talking about his dishes in a colorful voice, Zhongli was already frowning, because the dishes made by the two of them had seafood, and he didn't like this, so he wouldn't have come if he knew it.

Yanfei listened to Xiangling's introduction, nodded with a smile: "What a beautiful answer sheet, next, please speak." ”

Yan Xiao looked at the seven people on the judges' seat, a little nervous, especially the people on both sides of Ningguang and Keqing gave him a sense of pressure, especially the guest of the Afterlife Hall named Mr. Zhongli, who was about to overflow with disgust for the dishes he made.

"My dish is." Yan Xiao hurriedly adjusted his mentality and continued: "Immortal jumping over the wall, cold salad mint, golden shrimp balls." ”

"Just like Xiangling said, land and land are naturally the sea and the land. Birds and animals, swimming fish and shrimp, the materials I use are also within this range. ”

"Jumping over the wall is a famous dish in Liyue, and as the chef of Wangshu Inn, I have always regarded this dish as the finale of our restaurant."

"It's a complex dish with a lot of ingredients, including smoked ham, crab, shrimp and matsutake mushrooms. It's my main course, and it represents my respect for my work and this competition. ”

Listening to Yan Xiao's words, Xiangling opened her mouth to say something, but in the end she didn't say it.

She looked at the fairy jumping wall made by Yanxiao, the smell was obviously not as strong as that made by herself, and even the soup of the fairy jumping wall was much lighter than that made by herself.

"The side dish cold salad mint is refreshing, tender and sweet, and the heavy fresh and strong fragrance of the fairy jumping over the wall is just right."

"Golden shrimp balls are a classic dish that everyone likes, after drinking the fragrant and mellow soup, take a bite of shrimp balls, hehe... Not to mention how jolly it is! ”

Paimon said on the side: "Wow, I think the fragrance of the fairy jumping over the wall is so strong, I can smell it from so far away, but why did Xiangling say it differently, I think it's about the same." ”

Yanfei said according to the process: "Please start the tasting." ”

As soon as Yanfei's words fell, Keqing and Ningguang looked at each other, a little at a loss, but Tianshu was a little puzzled, why didn't the two of them move their chopsticks.

"This Mr. Zhongli, why don't you come first." Ningguang said to Zhongli next to him.

"Hmm." Zhongli bowed his head, picked up a piece of fragrant pepper and pepper chicken with chopsticks, and then tasted the cold salad mint, and there was no more follow-up.

"Mr. Zhongli, aren't these dishes to your liking?" Yan Xiao asked a little apprehensively when he saw that Zhongli had just eaten the cold salad mint he made and the fragrant pepper pepper chicken made by Xiangling.

Zhongli replied lightly: "These dishes can be regarded as delicious in terms of general reason, but I don't like to eat seafood, so I picked the part of the two of you that has no seafood to taste." ”

"Master, Master, how about you take a sip and see?" Ke Qing picked up a small bowl and poured the soup from the fairy jumping over the wall, handed it to the tassel and said.

Tassel took the small bowl handed over by Keqing and took a sip, well, the taste was light.

"How's it going?" Keqing asked expectantly.

Tassel replied, "Not really, the taste is still light in comparison." ”

"Oh, oh, then another golden shrimp ball." Keqing pinched a golden shrimp ball and put it on the plate in front of the tassel.

Looking at Ke Qing while looking at herself while secretly looking at the golden shrimp ball with her afterglow, Tassel smiled dumbly and said, "Okay, okay, I'll come by myself." ”

When Ke Qing heard the tassel's words, she hurriedly stretched out her chopsticks and grabbed a golden shrimp ball, and put it into her mouth with a happy face.

"Hmm, it's delicious." Keqing whispered in admiration, and the happiness on her face was about to overflow.

In this way, everyone tried the dishes of the two contestants.

When Keqing finished eating one golden shrimp ball again and was about to eat the second one, she saw Yanxiao and Xiangling looking at her expectantly, and pretended to be serious and said:

"It's amazing, the dishes on both sides are very painstaking, ingenious and delicious, I want to eat another golden shrimp! Taste the craftsmanship of both sides again. ”

Tianshu commented: "Xiangling's idea is very interesting, and it is very bold to use cold dishes as the main dish. ”

"This chili pepper chicken dish is very unique. Although the dish is cold, the chili peppers in it have been stir-fried, and there is residual warmth inside. Chewing in the mouth, it is spicy and hot, hot and crispy, and has a slight peppery taste, which is wonderful! ”

After Tianshu finished speaking, Ningguang continued to comment: "The immortal jumping over the wall is wonderful, the three threads of salty and fresh are properly deducted, the taste is high-end, and it is also of the highest quality. Well, the level is pretty good. ”

"Mr. Zhongli, what do you think?" Ningguang asked Zhongli, who was drinking tea next to him.

Zhongli replied slowly: "Well, although I don't like seafood, I also learned the cooking level of the two by tasting the dishes of the two, and the fragrant pepper pepper chicken and cold mint are good." ”

Ruo Tuo listened to Zhongli's words and said with a look of approval: "Yes, I think so too. ”

Tassel opened his mouth and commented: "I think the taste of the fairy jumping over the wall is still a little lighter, there is no thick and fragrant soup, but it is made on the spot, and it tastes good, as for the rest, the crystal shrimp and the golden shrimp balls are good in my opinion." ”

"This, this" Listening to the tassel's words, Yan Xiao was a little uneasy, he also knew that the fairy jumping wall needed time to precipitate, but the main taste of the fairy jumping wall was fresh, and the ordinary cooking time was fast, but it could also stimulate the taste of the fairy jumping over the wall, so he chose this dish.

And the people in Wangshu Inn are not fixed, so he naturally will not prepare such a food-consuming delicacy as Immortal Jumping over the Wall in advance, and sometimes no one orders this dish for a long time.

When someone ordered it, he could only make this dish quickly, but fortunately, the taste of the quickly made fairy jumping over the wall was not much different.

"I, I think it's all delicious, and I'm very satisfied with the dishes made by both of you, but I only have one ticket, so let me worry about it alone." After Wendy finished speaking, she picked up her chopsticks again and picked up a piece of fragrant pepper and pepper chicken from the plate in front of her and put it in her mouth.

"The three judges on the field, please think about it for a moment and write down your choices to me!" Yanfei said after waiting for everyone to comment.

In addition, the off-site judges selected by the organizing committee are also participating in the judging. If you are lucky enough to eat the dishes, please judge and vote for yourself. ”

"Wow, Ying, sure enough, we were drawn, let's go over and try it, seeing how delicious they eat, I want to eat it too." Paimon said excitedly.

Paimon said as he tried the dishes, "Wow, it's delicious, this one is delicious, that one is delicious, both of you make it delicious, I don't know who to vote for, it's so confusing." ”

"We have two votes, and we can vote for Yanxiao and Xiangling separately." Ying proposed.

Paimon nodded, "yes, that's fair." ”

At the same time, the judges, including Ying and Paimon, carefully tasted the dishes and cast their votes.

Yanfei handed the votes counted in the field to Ningguang, turned to everyone and said, "Everyone have been waiting for a long time!" Now that the vote count has been completed, the results have been returned to Miss Ningguang. ”

"Miss Ningguang, please announce the final results of this year's Liyue Chef Competition!"

After listening to Yanfei's words, Ningguang slowly stood up and said, "I announce that the champion of this King Chef Competition is"

Smile: "Hmm"

Xiangling: "Uh-huh."

Paimon: "Uh-huh."

Everyone looked nervously at the final result announced by Ningguang.

Ningguang paused and said, "Xiangling player who narrowly won by one vote." ”

"Wow!!" Hearing the result announced by Ningguang, Xiangling jumped up excitedly.

Paimon exclaimed, "Oops, hey, hey, chasing so closely?!" ”

"That is, the level of cooking is also very good." Ying replied.

Hearing the result, Yan Xiao sighed and said, "Sure enough. Alas, I knew. ”

Yanfei finally announced the result: "After fierce competition, this year's champion is born!" Xiangling's Xiangling contestant in the Liyue Harbor Division narrowly defeated the Yanxiao contestant in the Dihuazhou Division by one vote! ”

"Although there are winners and losers in the competition, the number of votes between the two is so close, which shows that no matter which one is a very popular and excellent chef! Thank you for your dedication! ”

Yanfei continued: "Next, it is the secret guest session, the two chefs and the mystery guest will compete again, this time the ingredients are not limited, the time is also an hour, now let's welcome the mystery guest." ”

"Is Shadow going to appear? I'm looking forward to what she can cook. Paimon said.

Yae Miko replied, "I don't know, I shouldn't be able to eat it anyway." ”

"Miko, you're back?"

Yae Miko replied with a serious face: "Well, I just caught up with Sister Ganyu, and now that I see that Shadow is going to compete, I'd better come over, if she sees that I'm not there, I don't know how to deal with me." ”

"Against you? Shadow isn't that scary, is it? Paimon scratched his head at Yae Miko's slightly exaggerated words.

Yae Miko shook his head and said, "You don't understand. ”

Under the gaze of everyone, Ying walked on stage with a blank face, she has long been accustomed to this kind of high-profile scene.

"Thunder, Raiden Shogun!" One person in the audience was surprised.

Beidou asked, "Kazuha, is she the thunder god of Inazuma?" ”

"Yes, but why did she come to Liyue?" Kazuha touched his chin and thought.

Beidou looked at the shadow on the field and said, "I'm more curious about why she came to Liyue than why she came to Liyue, and why she was invited as a mysterious guest. ”

Yan Xiao looked at Ying and felt the coercion coming from the other party, swallowed a mouthful of saliva and said, "It's so strong, it's a very strong chef at first glance." ”

"Mmmm, this kind of chef is challenging, let's work together!" Xiangling smiled at Yan and encouraged.

"Okay, I'll work hard, and it's very helpful for me to challenge this kind of chef."

Shadow: "."

Hearing the conversation between the two people, she felt a little embarrassed, she knew that she wouldn't come, why did she have to participate in this so-called chef competition with a twitch of her head, and she didn't know the level of cooking by herself.

Thinking of this, she turned her head to look at the tassels here with an interested face, and suddenly a feeling of sudden realization rose in her heart.

That's right, he must have come to power under the bewitchment of this woman.

"Now please play by yourself, report to the staff what ingredients you need, and after a while, the game will officially begin." Yanfei said.

"Wow, I still have to rest, then let's wait a little longer, I don't know what delicious Yanxiao and Xiangling will make now, the dishes made by the shadow, well, I still won't eat it." Paimon spoke.

Ying: "."

"Tassel, is this really okay? Let Shadow cook? I looked at the three-color dumplings she made at the beginning. Wendy whispered.

Tassel said with relief: "No problem, you can't eat the dead, don't worry." ”

Wendy listened to the tassel's answer, and said with a tangled face: "You are very spiritual as an undead person, since you said so, I can only rest assured." ”

"Master said, the dishes made by Ying are just too much in thunder, but they are actually very delicious." In contrast, Ke Qing said with an expectant face, and the tassels praised the delicious dishes, which were really delicious.

The thunder element was directly ignored by her, and now her body is strong, and she can bear the thunder element.

After listening to Keqing's words, Wendy gave her a thumbs up and praised: "It's amazing, it deserves what kind of master and what kind of apprentice." ”

After a long time, Yanfei came to the stage again and said: "Okay, it's halftime time, the ingredients needed by the players have been prepared, now let's watch them show their skills, and look forward to the food they make." ”

"Now, I'm announcing the start of the game, and it's still an hour."

As soon as Yanfei's words fell, Xiangling and Yanxiao began to prepare, this time Yanxiao was not as nervous as before, and she was very handy in cooking.

Unlike Yanxiao Xiangling's side of the fire, the shadow side was cooking with thunder flashing, and from time to time there were electric arcs scattered outside the venue, and when it came to the audience, it was resisted by an invisible barrier.

Let everyone who was about to hug their heads and squat to defend breathe a sigh of relief, put down the burden in their hearts, and began to watch this friendly cooking exchange competition seriously.
