It has been three days since Guo Xu returned to Agarwood Valley!

Under the breeze on both sides, the ironwood gentleman bamboo made a small noise, and the path paved with a century-old blue-veined stone was still so familiar, and an inexplicable warmth surged in his heart, finally back!

After going up the mountain for a few years, although Guo Xu has not lived a satisfactory life, the grass and trees, mountains and rivers in this miscellaneous courtyard, all this noisy and chaotic everything, has unconsciously and quietly become an invisible concern in his heart!

To complete the trial task, he needs to go to the restaurant to deliver it first, and besides, the Qixiaxiang pig he caught is a living creature, so he can't be delayed in the beast bag for too long. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

The dining room, the slaughterhouse, the terrible roars of all kinds of fierce birds and beasts, the shouting and scolding of the handymen, and the fishy smell that came to the face, everything is so familiar!

Guo Xu stood quietly in the lobby with an indifferent smile!

"Senior brother, you are back. Huzi looked surprised, and with a sigh of surprise, he dropped the razor in his hand, and the iron-armored snapping turtle to be slaughtered was also handed over to the handyman on the side to deal with, and walked quickly towards Guo Xu.

A warm hug, full of sincere friendship!

Letting go of the tiger, Guo Xu hurriedly asked, "How is the injury of the senior sister?"

Huzi patted Guo Xu on the shoulder and said: "Senior brother, relax, now there is no big problem, senior sister forcibly urged the sword duel that day, and the aura backlashed, injuring some of the meridians, just meditate and recuperate for a while." ”

"Hurt the meridians?" Guo Xu knew how to know the severity of the damage to the meridians, and his brows couldn't help frowning when he heard this.

"Hehe, junior brother, don't worry, senior sister has already taken the Gumai Pill, it won't affect her cultivation, it's just that her cultivation in the past two years can't be improved. Huzi said with relief.

Time is always scarce for monks, two years of cultivation can't make an inch, and he can't tolerate Guo Xu's five-spirit root qualifications, let alone a genius monk like a girl!

"By the way, I almost forgot about business, little junior brother, the master has an explanation, let you go to Wuchen Yaju to see him as soon as you return. Huzi slapped his head and said to Guo Xu.

"Okay, these Qixia Xiang pigs, senior brother will deal with them on my behalf, and I'll go to see the great, teacher. Guo Xu was not polite to Huzi, and casually threw the beast bag to Huzi.

Watching Guo Xu's figure disappear from the slaughterhouse, Huzi sighed lightly and muttered to himself: "Little junior brother, this final test of the master is very difficult, whether you can pass it depends on your creation!"

Looking at the four characters in this handwriting that are delicate and sharp, the figure of the girl in green can't help but appear in Guo Xu's mind; the small bridge built of green bamboo, the stream that winds and is as clear as a jade belt around the bamboo house, Guo Xu strolled through.

Before Guo Xu stepped forward to report, a deep and magnetic voice had already come: "Just come in and see me when you arrive." ”

"Disciple Guo Xu, meet Li Da, teacher. As soon as Guo Xu entered the main hall, he gave a big gift to the middle-aged man who was sitting upright.

Before he was halfway through his movements, he suddenly felt a flexible energy supporting his hands, and his waist could no longer bend.

"No need to be polite, come and sit and talk. Li Da, Shi Wensheng said to Guo Xu, and after speaking, he pointed to the chair at the bottom right.

"The disciple is afraid, Guo Xu made a big mistake in this trial, he shouldn't use his senior sister to deal with Fu Qingyun, causing his senior sister to be injured, Guo Xu's heart is uneasy, please ask for a big one, and the teacher will punish him!" Guo Xu looked guilty and did not go over to sit down.

Li Da, Shi gently put down the tea cup in his hand and said: "I don't blame you for this matter, don't blame yourself, the reason for this has been explained to me in detail." Ruby did a good job with you!"

"It's just that I don't understand, when did you find out about Ling'er and Huzi?"

"It's a coincidence that on the way to the trial in Hongfeng Town, the disciple had a break and accidentally found a white lark with an abnormal divine horse hovering overhead, and he didn't care about it at the time. ”

But in the following days, the disciple found the white lark many times, and he wondered if someone might follow him. But who will follow the disciple when he enters the mountain for the trial? The disciple guessed that most of them were big, and the teacher arranged for someone to secretly investigate, but it could not be confirmed on the way at that time. ”

When he arrived in Hongfeng Town, the disciple stayed at the inn, thinking that if someone was deliberately following, most of them would also stay at this inn, so he took the opportunity to ask the hotel shopkeeper. ”

"Sure enough, I found that the people who were secretly following were Senior Brother Huzi and Senior Sister Ling'er. Guo Xu was not in a hurry, and came together what he saw on the way, what he guessed in his heart, and how to confirm it.

"I see. "Li Da, after the teacher finished speaking, he glanced at him with deep meaning.

Guo Xu continued: "It was an unintentional move for the disciples to help Hongyu, but after learning the truth of the matter, I realized that the stakes were important and the situation was sinister. How to break this crisis, the disciple thought left and right, but there was no good plan, and finally he had no choice but to hit the idea on the heads of Senior Sister Ling'er and Senior Brother Huzi. ”

The disciple thought that the senior sister and the senior brother would not stand idly by at the moment of crisis, so they took the initiative to make an appointment with Fu Qingyun, but what the disciple didn't expect was that Fu Qingyun's dual cultivation of the Dharma body was so high that the senior sister was seriously injured. ”

"The disciple is for his own selfishness, putting his senior brother and sister in danger, Guo Xu is at fault, please be great, and the teacher will punish him. ”

Although Li Da and Shi did not ask, Guo Xu still took the initiative to tell the truth of the matter, he did feel guilty at the moment, Li Da, how the teacher punished, he would accept it willingly!

Li Da, the teacher waved his hand and said, "Okay, I said this just now, and the fault is not you." You can find your brothers and sisters on the way, and with their help to solve the crisis and complete the trial, it is your ability, and this is undoubtedly the wisest decision, you have done a good job!"

Guo Xu saw Li Da, and the master really had no intention of scolding him, but how could he not say it, thought about it, and took out the golden book given by the red jade from his arms and said: "Great, master, what Fu Qingyun has in mind is this thing............

"Okay, this is your chance, you just put it away. "Li Da, before Guo Xu finished speaking, he interrupted him and asked him to put away the golden book directly.

Guo Xu Shicai had indeed moved the idea of sharing the golden book, he understood the value of this golden book, but Li Da and Shi didn't seem to be interested at all, so he directly asked him to put it away, and he was secretly moved in his heart, and he had a heartfelt admiration!

A table, a chair, a couch, Guo Xu's cottage is extremely simple, but this is his warmest harbor!

Lying on the bed, Guo Xu's mind was still echoing with the words of Li Da and Shi!

"Your trial in Red Maple Town this time, the assessment is half completed, but there is one final test. ”

"This final test is to create a new one-grade spirit food dish within a month, and be promoted to a first-class spirit chef!"

"The main ingredients of this first-class spiritual food dish are the Qixia fragrant pig and moonlight grass obtained by trial!"

"Do you think this test is too difficult to complete?"

"But you have to know that what I'm going to accept this time is a closed door disciple!

"A month later, I will personally assess, pass the test, award you the badge of a first-class spirit chef, and become my closed disciple, if you fail the test, you can continue to go back to the miscellaneous courtyard. ”

It seems that the task of creating a new one-grade spiritual food dish within a month and being promoted to a first-class spiritual chef seems to be incomplete, but since Li Da and Shi dare to propose it, it means that it is not as difficult as imagined!

It is completely achievable through hard work, and since there is hope of achieving it, what are you afraid of! The more difficult the test, the more it stimulates the arrogance in Guo Xu's bones.

On the second day, the dining room, the slaughterhouse.

"Senior brother, I went to see the master yesterday and know the final test. Huzi said to Guo Xu who came over, with a hint of helplessness in his tone.

"The junior brother came here today to ask the senior brother for advice. Guo Xu was not depressed, and looked calm.

Huzi patted Guo Xu on the shoulder and said, "You, you, I'm afraid you don't know what a first-level spirit chef is." ”

After speaking, he stretched out his hand and pointed to the busy handymen in the slaughterhouse and said: "Slaughtering these fierce birds and beasts, familiar with the internal structure, know how to divide or only fur, the key is to know how to slaughter in the most appropriate way, in order to reduce the corpse poison formed by the acid secreted by the acid and resentment in the body of the demon beast before death, so that the ingredients can be kept as fresh and delicious as possible." ”

"This is the first step to becoming a first-level spirit chef, of course, the junior disciple already has a little understanding of slaughter before, and I believe this first step should not be a big problem. ”

Not far from the slaughterhouse, deep in the bamboo forest, the ingredient room.

"Did you see it, the various parts of the fierce birds and beasts that had been divided in the slaughterhouse before, as well as some auxiliary spiritual herbs and elixirs, were all mixed and matched here. ”

Huzi took Guo Xu to the ingredient room, pointed to the busy handyman and explained to him.

"Look at the bear's paw, weighing thirty catties and three taels, the red hawthorn fruit weighs three catties and three taels, as well as two taels of spirit peppers, one or two spirit onion white, these ingredients can be made into a spiritual food "four wonderful bear paws"!

"Bear's paw nourishes qi and blood but is too fatty, so it needs red hawthorn fruit to neutralize, red hawthorn fruit is yin, it hurts the lungs, so it needs spirit pepper to adjust yin and yang, and the green onion white taste is fresh and can boost appetite. ”

"The selection and matching of these four flavors of spiritual materials are quite particular, and the amount is too much to increase, and too little to be less. Huzi explained to Guo Xu the subtlety of the compatibility of ingredients.

After reading it, Guo Xu already knew in his heart, this spiritual chef must understand the matching of spiritual materials and the harmony of portions, isn't it similar to the compatibility and dosage of medicinal materials prescribed by medical treatment?

Huzi finally took Guo Xu to the cooking room. As soon as I entered, I suddenly felt a scorching heat wave rushing towards my face.

"There is a ground fire under this cooking room, alchemy needs earth fire, and cooking is also needed. You see, under these dozen cauldrons, the clusters of blue spiritual fires are all guided up from the underground fire veins. ”

"There are so many sects around the Tang Kingdom, but there are those that can be cooked with a fire in the dining room, and our Agarwood Valley is the only one!" Huzi introduced the characteristics of the cooking room to Guo Xu, and there was no lack of pride in his tone.

"There are pros and cons to cooking on this fire, but the advantage is that the fire is full of aura, whether it is steaming, frying, cooking, or boiling, the ingredients can be kept as nutritious and delicious as possible. ”

"And the disadvantage of this is that the fire is not easy to control, and the fire is difficult to grasp. If the fire is too high, the ingredients are easy to burn black and change the taste, and if the fire is not enough, the umami of the ingredients cannot be effectively volatilized!" Huzi patiently explained.

At this point, Guo Xu understood that if he wanted to become a first-level spirit chef, he had to pass these three levels.

In the case of a normal recipe, it is still unknown to master these tricks to make a first-class spiritual food within a month, not to mention that you have to explore and match the spiritual materials and portions by yourself to create a new dish.

Guo Xu's final test is desperately difficult!
