Chapter 205: Still First
Chapter 205 is still the first
Time passed slowly, and the incense in the incense burner was more than half burned.
At this time, I saw that Yin Luo took out a white jade vial from his arms, and then poured it from the bottle into the pot where the seasoning was boiling, and a few drops of juice were poured into the pot from the jade bottle, and Yin Luo immediately plugged the jade bottle with a stopper and put it back in his arms.
This is the key to winning with the bottle, looking at the juice should be a pre-boiled spice, the raw materials of this cooking god competition are provided by the imperial court, but many secret spices are allowed to be brought in by the contestants, so as to give full play to the best strengths of each contestant.
Time is almost over, and Yin Luo's clear soup and tofu are also out of the pot.
"Okay, it's time, let's start with the first and serve your own dishes in turn. Lord Wang said.
Then the thirty-six cooks served the dishes one by one.
The nine members of the judging table tasted the dishes of each contestant in turn, and they all nodded their heads.
"Ah??? This taste??? This taste??? Tai Chi tasted ????" At this time, one of the reviewers screamed out loud.
"Yes, it's so delicious, this taste has not been tasted by the old man for decades, yes, it's really good. There was also heat on the side, and he screamed.
The rest of the people who followed were also amazed.
This dish is the clear soup tofu of No. 18 Yinluo!
This guy's trick really works, is this clear soup tofu really so delicious?
Nearly an hour later, the results were in.
"Below I announce the results of the competition, starting with the highest score. Lord Wang said in a loud voice.
The crowd fell silent.
"First place. Yin Luo, the score is ninety, full marks, haha, the name of the dish is clear soup tofu, the soup is delicious, the tofu is tender and smooth, and the aftertaste is endless, haha. Lord Wang said.
Yin Luo in the field showed a strange look in his eyes at this time, and he also smiled slightly.
"Second place. Shenghao. Score eighty-seven, the name of the dish is a strange radish, the taste of this radish is indeed very strange and distinctive, not bad, not bad. 3rd place. Zou Min. The score is eighty-six points, and the name of the dish is Eight Immortals Crossing the Sea, and Eight Immortals take eight kinds of home-cooked vegetables. It is served with a fragrant soup and is very delicious. 4th place??????" Mr. Wang reported the results of the game in turn.
Then the imperial court awarded bonuses to the top three, and the other two were extremely excited.
"Okay, today's game is over, the top twelve chefs will gather at the door of the Tianxiang Inn at noon tomorrow, and the official will send a carriage to send you to the palace to participate in the competition the day after tomorrow, everyone will go back first, remember, tomorrow at noon, you must not be absent at that time, and the one who is absent is the crime of bullying the king." Lord Wang said.
"Got ?????" The twelve people in the room replied loudly.
Then the game ended, and Feng Caifan and I also left the school field.
"Xiao Qin, come and eat with us. Feng Caifan said to me.
"Yes, Sister Xiao, let's go together. Xi Ziluo on the side said.
"Miss Xiao, the old man also invites you to go with me. That Xi Shengdi also said lightly, and there was a slight suspicion in his eyes.
This Xi Shengdi is still thinking about my identity, but this Xi Shengdi's martial arts are definitely not weak, and when things are busy, I will meet him with my true identity when the time comes.
"Senior Xi, sister-in-law, I still have something very important today, so I won't accompany you, Brother Feng, I'll be busy first, and when I have news, I will naturally go to Qianzhuang to find you." I said.
"Well, well, you won't leave Yingtian again. Feng Caifan asked.
"Well, it won't be for a while. I said.
"Well, that's good, you still live in Xiao Yun Pavilion, I'll look for you when I'm free. Feng Caifan said.
"Well, okay, I'll take my leave. With that, I left.
The contestants all stayed at the Tianxiang Inn, and I immediately rushed to the Tianxiang Inn.
The Tianxiang Inn near the Imperial City is several times larger than the Tianxiang Inn I often go to in the east of the city, and the decoration in the inn is also a lot more luxurious, at this time it is noon, the business in the inn is very prosperous, I think this Yin Luo should also go back to the inn, I walked straight towards the inn counter.
"Guest officer, stay in the hotel or eat. "The shopkeeper at the counter is a middle-aged man with a white face.
"The shopkeeper wants to inquire about someone. I said.
"Oh, the identities of our guests are kept secret, so no outsiders can know about them. The white-faced shopkeeper replied.
This day Xiang Inn is really good at operating, these are the practices of modern five-star hotels.
"Is that okay?" I pulled out a silver ticket worth one thousand taels and quietly stuffed it into the shopkeeper's hand.
"Hehe, of course that's okay, who do you want to inquire about?" asked the white-faced shopkeeper with a smile after collecting the silver ticket.
These people are good money.
"Shopkeeper, the chefs of this Chef God Contest are all living here. I asked.
"Yes, that's good." The shopkeeper replied.
"That's good, I'd like to ask a chef named Yin Luo if he lives in that inn. I asked.
"Oh, hehe Yinluo, just won the first place in the preliminary round, hehe, I know, he lives in the eighth upper room of the West Wing Pavilion, if the guest officer wants to find him, where to enter the backyard, and then turn left is the West Wing. The shopkeeper said.
Money can make ghosts grind, hehe, it's done.
"Thank you to the shopkeeper. With that, I walked in the direction pointed by the shopkeeper.
Turn left and enter the West Wing, which is made up of several small and beautiful lofts, each of which is three stories high and has four upper rooms on each floor.
This number eight is the second floor of the first attic.
I walked up, stopped outside the door of room eight, and banged the door.
I knocked for a while, but no one came to open the door.
"Guest officer, are you looking for someone?" asked a junior two downstairs towards me.
"Yes. I replied.
"Oh, the guest officer in room eight has just gone out, and now there is no one inside. Xiao Er replied.
Just out??? I was really unlucky, and then I listened intently to what was going on inside. There was really no movement inside, and no one was inside.
"The guest officer is looking for the guest officer of Yin Luo, why don't you wait for him first, now that Yin Luo is the first in the preliminary round of the Chef God Competition, there are many people looking for him. Xiao Er said politely, and at this time, the two of them came straight to the upper room of No. 8.
"The girl is also looking for Yin Luo?" The two people who came were led by a well-dressed middle-aged man.
"Yes. But no one. I said.
"Oh, hehe, Zhou Chong, the shopkeeper of Yaxuan, came to visit Yin Chef, I didn't think it was the right time to come. What to call a girl who dares to love. This person named Zhou Chong said politely to me.
This guy probably thinks of me as his wife or friend. That's why you're so kind to me.
"In Xia Xiao Qin, he is a friend of Yin Luo, and he also came to visit him. I said.
"Oh, hehe, it's because of the birth of a friend. Fortunately, I will be honored. We sincerely want to ask Chef Yin to serve as the third shopkeeper of Juyaxuan after the competition. We were very sincere, but it was troublesome for the girl to see the kitchen god to help me convey it. This Zhou Chong said politely.
"Yes, if only I could see it. I'll be sure to help you convey it. I replied.
"Alright, then let's take our leave, Miss Xiao. After Zhou Chong finished speaking, he politely retreated and walked out of the West Wing.
There are really a lot of people looking for him when this Yin Luo person is popular, since he is not here, then I will wait first, this guy will not return to Tianxiang Inn all day long.
Then I went out of the West Wing, sat down in the hall, ordered two side dishes, and ate.
After eating, I ordered a pot of high-quality Biluochun in the corner and drank it slowly, waiting while drinking, looking at the door from time to time, as long as this guy came back, I would look for him.
I waited like this all afternoon, I drank five pots of tea, and this guy hasn't come back yet.
It's already evening, maybe this guy won't come back? I'm all in a state of retreat, I've wasted an afternoon here.
Just when I was about to flash people, two people walked into the door at this time, one of them was Na Yin Luo, and the other was Sheng Hao, who was the second place in the preliminary round, and the two of them talked and laughed and walked into the Tianxiang Inn.
Good fellow, I'm only coming back now, and I'm still back with the second place, could it be that these two were called by the court after the game?
I left my seat and walked quickly towards Yin Luo.
"Yin Luo, remember me?" I said as I walked up to him and said to him.
"Girl???? You??? You??? I think I've seen ???? somewhere." Yin Luo said thoughtfully.
"Brother Yin, if you are looking for your brother, I won't accompany you. Shenghao on the side said.
"Okay, Brother Sheng will say goodbye and meet again tomorrow. Yin Luo said, and then Shenghao left us.
"It's normal for Yin Chef God not to remember me, in Dali's Chongli Festival, I witnessed Yin Chef God winning the first place, and now the preliminary round is also the first, presumably tomorrow's final can also win the championship in one fell swoop. I said.
"Hehe, thank you girl for the compliment, tomorrow's things are full of uncertainties, and I am not sure about it. The girl won't just talk about it. Yin Luo said.
"Hehe, there is indeed something important, Chef Yin hasn't eaten dinner yet, so let's talk about it while eating. "I don't want the atmosphere to be too stiff, so let's be soft first.
"Well, well, I'll please. Yin Luo replied.
Then the two of us found a small private room upstairs and ordered a few side dishes.
"Haven't asked the girl's name yet?" Yin Luo asked me when the side dishes were finished.
"In Xia Xiao Qin. I replied.
"Xiao Qin ???" Yin Luo was a little surprised and blurted out, but in a short moment, this guy pretended to be calm again, judging from this expression, this guy definitely knows that my name is now spread on the rivers and lakes.
"Hehe, Miss Xiao, thank you Miss Xiao for watching the kitchen god competition all the way from Dali, it is an honor in the next. Yin Luo said deliberately.
"I'm not here to watch you play. I said.
"Oh, what else is the matter with Miss Xiao?" Yin Luo asked.
"Okay, then I'll tell you by name, does Yin Luo know Yin Changli of the Dali Duan clan?" I asked.
"Yin Changli, who is the girl talking about, I have never heard it before. Yin Luo replied calmly, but those eyes had already betrayed him, and when he heard me say the words Yin Changli, a trace of unease welled up in his eyes.
"Okay, let me tell you, Yin Changli is the current patriarch of the Duan clan in Dali, after the Duan clan in Dali was dispersed by the Ming army, the people of the Duan clan changed their surnames to Yin, I wonder if Yin Luo is a descendant of the Duan clan in Dali?" I asked.
"Oh, hehe, Dali Duan's family I know about this, Miss Xiao is not from Dali, we have lived in Yinjiazhuang outside Dali City for generations, what should the surname of this family be Yin Guan?" Yin Luo said.
This guy really doesn't admit it, but it's also normal, this clan is still wanted in Daming, although the current Mu Wangfu no longer pursues the Duan clan, but the truth of this clan in Yingtian still doesn't dare to be easily exposed, and this Yin Luo also has the need to conceal it.
"Chef Yin doesn't have to be afraid of anything, there are only the two of us in the private room now, Duan Liming, the eldest elder of the Duan family, is also very familiar with me, and I also know the second uncle of the Gu family and others, Chef Yin. I said.
"What did the girl say, what is the eldest elder, what is the second uncle, I have indeed never heard of it, how can I pretend to be a member of the Duan clan?" Yin Luo replied with a smile.
This guy's mental quality is really good. (To be continued......)
