Chapter 719: Master Yong's Provocation [First Update]
Thank you for your valuable monthly ticket support!
―――
Master Yong's voice was low, revealing an unmistakable taste.
At this moment, he seemed to have suddenly changed into a person, and his thin face rarely cast a compelling majesty.
The shopkeeper Huang secretly exclaimed, once this old man's temper became stubborn, he was not afraid of heaven and earth, and he didn't even care about his life, so he wouldn't listen to anyone's persuasion at all.
Chen Xi just asked casually, but he didn't expect it to cause such a strong reaction from Master Yong, he couldn't help frowning, his eyes were like electricity, Huo Ran looked at this stubborn old man, a little displeased.
But when his eyes touched Master Yong's thin cheeks, gray hair, and the majesty that was not afraid of everything, it only made Chen Xi's heart tremble, and he suddenly remembered Old Man Ma.
Old man Ma is also so stubborn and short-tempered, and even often scolds himself, but Chen Xi knows that Old Man Ma has never given up on himself, and even invests all his efforts on himself.
Soon, Chen Xi's expression became calm, and he arched his hand and said, "I'm sorry, it's the juniors who are abrupt." ”
Originally, whether it was Huang Shopkeeper or Bai Gunan, they all thought that Chen Xi was going to be angry, the former was worried, and the latter was excited, but neither of them expected that Chen Xi would suddenly take the initiative to open his mouth!
This made both of them slightly stunned, a little confused.
"Let's go. Chen Xi's gaze swept over the rows of clear kitchen counters, and finally, he took a deep breath and raised his feet to leave.
"Wait!" Master Yong suddenly opened his mouth and said, "Boy, let me ask you, in your heart, what is the way of cooking?"
"Is this a test?" Chen Xi paused, but did not look back.
"You have to give the old man a step down, right?" Master Yong said bitterly, this old man is also very interesting, just now he was just and majestic, but now he looks like an old naughty boy with a strange temper.
"This old thing, it's really hypocritical!" Bai Gunan muttered quietly on the side.
Master Yong smiled and ignored it, just staring at Chen Xi in the distance.
Chen Xi barely thought about it and replied: "The so-called Kitchen Dao is a Dao that can loosen the tongue and make the cultivation life rich and exciting, and it is also the ultimate goal of every qualified spirit chef to explore and climb all his life. ”
This is what Old Man Ma said, and he still clearly remembers the endless fanaticism and longing in Old Man Ma's eyes when he said this.
Shopkeeper Huang was surprised, originally he thought that Chen Xi either didn't know anything about it, or he would talk eloquently, quote scriptures, and deter Master Yong, but he never expected that Chen Xi's answer was so simple, even with a hint of naughty humor.
Let the tongue loose...... What a wonderful description!
Even he, a layman, couldn't help but secretly admire.
Master Yong was also slightly stunned, and then fell silent, and nodded for a long time before nodding and saying, "You can use the old man's kitchen table." ”
Chen Xi turned around and arched his hand: "Thank you." ”
As he spoke, he had come to the kitchen counter, looking at the bottles and jars of seasoning on the kitchen counter, as well as the various kitchen utensils of different shapes, and he couldn't help but feel itchy hands.
For him, if there is a hobby in addition to cultivation, it is undoubtedly talisman making and cooking.
Talisman making is a method of making money that he has been exposed to since he was a child, at that time, talisman making was also the only source of life for him and his grandfather and younger brother, and now, although he no longer has to use talisman making as a method of making money, but the interest imprinted in his bones since he was a child has made him still love talisman making to this day.
Cooking, on the other hand, was learned when he was young, and he recorded too many memories, and he couldn't give it up.
Chen Xi was not in a hurry, but carefully selected the ingredients on one side.
Seeing Chen Xi's serious appearance, Shopkeeper Huang couldn't help but ask Bai Gu Nan in a low voice: "Chen Daoyou, he is really good at cooking?"
These days, Chen Xi's reputation has shocked the world, and all the rumors about him are inseparable from the assessment of his amazing combat effectiveness.
All of this made the shopkeeper Huang feel very novel, and even a little unbelievable.
After all, a spirit chef is no more than a true cultivator, but an auxiliary profession, and his status and fame are far less revered than that of a cultivator.
Therefore, Shopkeeper Huang even suspected that Chen Xi might have only studied the kitchen a little, but he had not tried it himself at all.
Bai Gu Nan was also very surprised, and immediately snorted coldly: "One law, ten thousand laws, my brother is an unborn genius, just a cook, how can he be stumped?"
Having said that, he couldn't help but murmur to himself in his heart, Chen Xi, can this guy be able to do it?
"Boy, although the old man gave you the opportunity to use the old man's kitchen counter, if you can't make a decent dish, it will be a big shame. On the side, Master Yong said.
Chen Xi smiled, his eyes still wandering on the ingredients on one side.
As the premier restaurant in the Fire City, Zuixian Lou naturally does not lack any spiritual materials, these meats, fruits and vegetables, grains, etc. are all stacked together in different categories, and placed in different positions according to the different quality of materials.
People who don't know anything about cooking are afraid that they will be dazzled just by seeing these ingredients, let alone selecting suitable ingredients with the same attributes to cook.
But these are naturally difficult for Chen Xi, although the ingredients are divided into different types according to the different attributes of yin and yang and the five elements, which is extremely cumbersome and complicated, but for Chen Xi today, at a glance, he basically knows the attributes and materials of various spiritual materials, as well as the ingredients that need to be matched, kitchenware, fire, etc.
This is an advantage in the realm, but what is important is that these skills of identifying ingredients have been familiar to him as early as many young people, and they have become a part of his cultivation, and it is natural to distinguish them naturally, and it is effortless.
Seeing Chen Xi behaving like this, Master Yong couldn't help but snort coldly, suddenly stood up, and shouted to the busy spirit chefs around him: "You guys put down the work in your hands for the time being, and come here." ”
Including those apprentices, they were also summoned by him.
The level of these spirit chefs ranged from one leaf to six leaves, there were about hundreds of people, plus those apprentices, there were almost thousands of people, and they all gathered at this time in a daze, not understanding what Master Yong was going to do.
Master Yong pointed at Chen Xi and said: "This is Chen Xi, a disciple of the Jiuhua Sword Sect who is famous all over the world, a peerless and arrogant person, now, he wants to show his cooking skills for you, this is a rare opportunity, once you miss it, you can't regret it, you all open your eyes, look at it!"
Hearing this, those spirit chefs were agitated for a while, and they all showed a look of amazement, but they didn't expect that this handsome young man in front of him was actually Chen Xi, who was now in the cultivation world!
But in an instant, their faces couldn't help but become a little weird, "Cooking skills, God! Chen Xi wants to show us cooking skills? Isn't this a class axe?
The so-called art industry has a specialty, in terms of personal strength, they think that they are 108,000 miles different from Chen Xi, but if they are in the kitchen, it is not necessarily!
Even, some spirit chefs showed disapproval, obviously thinking that Master Yong was joking.
Seeing this, Bai Gunan's eyes couldn't help but widen, and secretly said I grass, this obscene old man is also a good hand of yin people, isn't this blatantly deliberately trying to embarrass Chen Xi?
Shopkeeper Huang also frowned, Master Yong's move is a bit too much, whether Chen Xi knows how to cook or not, this is a bit of a trick after all, if it angers the other party, what can I do?
"Master Yong, you're not ......" Shopkeeper Huang lowered his voice and transmitted.
"What are you worried about?" Master Yong glared at him and interrupted: "Even Chen Xi didn't refuse, why are you in a hurry?"
At this moment, in full view of everyone, Chen Xi had already begun to move, one by one, as if being taken up by an invisible big hand, and landed firmly on the board.
He moved to the kitchen counter, reached out and grabbed a Xueliang kitchen knife in front of him, and with a flick of his wrist, the knife light flew, and began to process a piece of green snail root.
The green snail root is verdant and densely covered with fine threads, which is one of the common fruits and vegetables.
Duh!
The knife light is like a snowflake flying, the sound of the fine and compact knife cutting board is like a rhythm, Chen Xi's wrist is steady and flexible, and the sharp kitchen knife is precisely controlled by him, almost in the blink of an eye, the green snail root is processed, a piece of thin as a cicada's wings, uniform thickness, neat, pleasing to the eye.
Knife work is one of the important means to measure the level of a spiritual chef, three points of the stove, seven points of the board, no knife can not be a dish.
As early as when he was young, Chen Xi's knife work had reached the point of perfection, and coupled with his strong cultivation now, he was simply able to do this.
However, this scene fell in the eyes of everyone, but they were all secretly surprised, as soon as the connoisseur made a move, they knew if there was any, Chen Xi's knife work, which made them feel quite amazing.
"Hmph, it's just a knife worker, you must know that what is in front of you is a genius with the best personal combat effectiveness, and his control over Liliang has already reached a peak level, and it is reasonable to be able to use kitchen knives proficiently, which is nothing. Master Yong snorted coldly.
When everyone heard this, their expressions quickly returned to their original state, Master Yong was right, the control of the spirit chef over Liliang was actually the same as any other profession, and from this alone, it was impossible to distinguish the advantages and disadvantages of a spirit chef.
However, the next scene made them couldn't help but be surprised, and even a little dazzled!
I saw that all kinds of ingredients fell into Chen Xi's hands, and they were all processed by him like a cloud, without stagnation, his wrist strength was calm, and his knife skills were skillful.
Slices, can be cut the same thickness, as thin as cicada wings, like pieces of snowflakes falling, full of rhythm.
Shredding, can be cut of equal length, the same thickness, just like a slender catkins dancing with the wind, in the hand between the knife to show the skill.
Carving, a slender ingredient like a cow's hair, is actually carved with a mysterious texture, interwoven into a pattern, the action is like an antelope hanging horns, easy to come!
......
The most important thing is his speed, which is extremely fast, almost less than a cup of tea, more than 120 kinds of ingredients, all of which were perfectly handled by him!
