Talisman Emperor Chapter 18: Du Qingxi

Published:

As the woman entered, the room suddenly became silent, and even the narcissistic Qiao Nan and the crazy **** Pei Qi consciously shut their mouths.

Chen Xi looked up, only to see that this woman was tall and well-proportioned, with a beautiful nose and cherry lips, picturesque eyebrows, frosty skin and Sai Xue, and she was dressed in black clothes. From a distance, she looked like a lonely flower The blooming black peonies have a unique cold feeling.

“Her name is Du Qingxi, the owner of Qingxi Restaurant. She usually lives in the shallows. She spends most of the time in retreat and practice, and rarely appears in restaurants. Her origin is quite mysterious, and her strength is unknown. It is said that even General Qin of the General’s House met with She also has to give three points when it comes to her.”

Bai Wanqing’s soft and sweet voice quietly entered Chen Xi’s ears. Only then did he understand the identity of the woman in front of him. He couldn’t help but feel a little surprised. She was able to run the number one restaurant in Songyan City at such a young age. Staggering.

After Du Qingxi walked in, he simply ignored everyone, only glanced at Chen Xi without a trace, then turned his gaze to Old Man Ma, and said directly: “The apprentices you recruited are provided with a daily supply of one hundred primeval stones, and repair The materials used in cooking are also provided free of charge, but you must sign a three-year agreement with me to ensure that you will only work in my Qingxi Restaurant for three years, how?” The voice was cold and clear, revealing an unquestionable taste.

Old Man Ma shook his head and said, “I only teach cooking skills, you have to discuss these things with that kid.”

Du Qingxi frowned, looked at Chen Xi, and said slowly: “You are quite clear about the conditions I said. Whether you sign the agreement or not is entirely up to you.”

To be honest, such conditions have exceeded Chen Xi’s expectations. Originally, he thought it would be a blessing to earn dozens of primeval stones a day, but he did not expect that Du Qingxi would directly give him a reward of one hundred primeval stones per day. , When I was stunned, I couldn’t help but feel pleasantly surprised.

After thinking silently for a moment, Chen Xi made a decision and replied: “I can promise to only work in Qingxi Restaurant, but the time cannot be guaranteed, but what is certain is that as long as I stay in Songyan City for one day, I will definitely not. Then choose another restaurant to serve.”

He did this just in case. He had too many things on his back, and he couldn’t guarantee whether he could be a three-year apprentice chef at Qingxi Restaurant.

Du Qingxi was stunned for a while, as if he didn’t expect Chen Xi to dare to bargain with him, before nodding coldly after a while, “I hope you can do it.”

After saying that, she turned and left, her movements neat and tidy, without any sloppiness.

It only took a moment for Du Qingxi to walk into the house and leave, but her aura and resoluteness of her words were vividly displayed. Coupled with her arrogant and cold beauty, she was like a queen who is aloof. Patroling one’s own territory makes one unconsciously feel awe.

But these didn’t have much effect on Chen Xi. He only knew that he had become a spiritual chef apprentice with a daily salary of hundreds of primeval stones, so he was in a good mood, and he didn’t care how strong Du Qingxi’s attitude was.

……

“Miss, we have already checked it out. This is the detailed information about Chen Xi.” Wu Feng looked respectful and handed over a piece of paper.

Wu Feng has a fair complexion and a feminine temperament. When Du Qingxi was born, he was arranged by Du Qingxi’s side, guarding him like a shadow.

“Chen Xi, the eldest grandson of the former Chen family’s eldest son in Songyan City…”

Everything about Chen Xi was recorded in detail on the paper, from his birth to the present day, everything was presented on a thin piece of paper.

After Du Qingxi checked it out, there was a rare surprise in his cold eyes: “The family is destroyed, the parents are separated, the marriage contract is destroyed, the grandfather is killed… This guy is really unlucky, no wonder he is called the broom star. What?”

Wu Feng frowned and said, “Miss, don’t you feel pity for him, so you offered such generous conditions? Those ingredients are full of spiritual energy, so let him use it for free, it seems… a little inconvenient. All right?”

Du Qingxi didn’t take it seriously: “As long as he can learn one-tenth of the cooking skills from Old Man Ma before the trial in the Southern Barbarian Demon Territory, what if some materials are wasted?”

Wu Feng seemed to realize something and exclaimed: “Miss, do you really want to go to the Nanban Demon Region?”

Du Qingxi said indifferently: “Yes, I have obtained a Fengyuan Pill, and it is not a problem at all to reduce my strength to the innate realm, but you also know that the spiritual energy of the Southern Barbarians is exhausted, and the evil energy is monstrous, and it is hard to spend there. For three years, if there is no spiritual chef to accompany you, there will only be a dead end.”

Wu Feng was stunned and said, “How could it be three years, when the Southern Barbarian Demon Realm is usually opened, it will be closed in less than three months. Could something have changed this time?”

Du Qingxi glanced at Wu Feng coldly, before saying after a long time, “My father explained these things, are you sure you want to know?”

I don’t know what terrifying thing happened, Wu Feng suddenly shivered and shook his head quickly: “This subordinate is just worried about the safety of the young lady, no offense.”

Du Qingxi waved his hand and instructed: “You step back first, remember, don’t spread the word about Chen Xi’s cooking skills at Qingxi Restaurant. Although the Li family is small, there is a Southern Border Su. It is better not to quarrel with the shadow of home.”

Wu Feng agreed solemnly, his body swayed, turned into a faint black smoke, and disappeared.

……

Not long after Du Qingxi left, Bai Wanqing also left. As for Qiao Nan and Pei Pei, Old Man Ma threw them out of the room with an iron spoon, leaving only him and Chen Xi.

Old man Ma didn’t like nonsense, and he didn’t intend to talk to Chen Xi at all, and immediately began to teach him how to cook.

Before the art was passed on, each puppet puppet held a plate like running water and placed it in front of Chen Xi. Each plate contained several kinds of ingredients that had not yet been dissected, and the spiritual energy was diffused, which was really eye-catching.

Chen Xi made a rough calculation. There are hundreds of plates and thousands of ingredients. He couldn’t help but be slightly startled. What is Old Man Ma doing?

“These 1,308 kinds of ingredients involve fruits and vegetables, grains, spirit grass, and flesh and blood of demon birds… They are the most basic ingredients, also known as lower-level ingredients, as long as you can cook with these ingredients If you can produce a variety of different dishes, and its efficacy can be used by the monks of the acquired realm, then you are considered entry-level.”

“I will now show you the practice of thirteen dishes. Each of these thirteen methods has its own emphasis, and there are differences in knife work, spirit fire, five elements, etc. You should pay attention to learning.”

After the old man Ma was full of energy and spit out a big lesson, he came to the kitchen counter, grabbed seven or eight kinds of ingredients, and began to teach himself the art.

“This dish is called Spicy Braised Chilin Shrimp. The Chilin Shrimp is born by the Lingshui. It is one foot long. Spicy sea shell peppers are used as accessories, and then supplemented with water herbs, green mane wild boar oil, emerald salt and other condiments, cooking with scorching sun…”

While speaking, Old Man Ma was not idle. He first dissected the material, then controlled the spirit fire. After it was hot, he put in the ingredients, and quickly stirred with a spoon and pan. The movements were smooth and fast, and he seemed extremely casual.

Chen Xi stared at the old man Ma without blinking, concentrating on him.

Five years of talismanism have given him an excellent habit of devoting himself to doing whatever he wants to do in a very short period of time.

In the past ten days, Chen Xi has been imagining the statue of Fuxi without hesitation every day.

As soon as he concentrated at this moment, his mind instantly entered an ethereal state. Old Man Ma’s movements slowed down in his eyes, and he could see every movement and every step exactly. , and keep it in mind.

Hey!

A peculiar smell of pungent and pungent wafts wafts through the room.

Not long after that, on the white jade plate, a red-lint shrimp with a whole body was stoked, and a trace of oily and boiling soup squeaked on the surface of the red-lint shrimp, exuding a mouth-watering spicy taste fragrance.

“Try the taste. If you can’t make it in the future, don’t tell people that you are my apprentice!” There is great confidence in the craftsmanship.

Chen Xi swallowed hard, picked up his chopsticks and touched the shrimp shell lightly. The red-lint shrimp cracked a neat gap in the middle, revealing the snow-white and crystal shrimp inside, and the aroma became stronger and more attractive. people. Picking the tip of the chopsticks gently, he picked up a piece of steaming shrimp and put it in his mouth.

As soon as the shrimp meat landed on his tongue, a unique fresh and spicy sensation instantly spread all over his body. Chen Xi only felt his tongue tremble slightly, as if he had been electrocuted, and his mouth was full of numbness and tenderness. Chewed gently, the shrimp meat is delicate and flexible, spicy and refreshing, stretchy and supple, and extremely delicious.

“How do you feel?” Old Man Ma crossed his arms and looked confident.

Chen Xi said vaguely, “Let me have another bite.” As he spoke, he waved his chopsticks again, brushing the chopsticks down like raindrops. Instead of his usual calm and calm appearance, he looked like the reincarnation of a starving ghost. In the blink of an eye, he devoured and devoured the whole red prawn completely.

No wonder Chen Xi is so rude~IndoMTL.com~ This red-lint shrimp is really delicious. For him, who has only eaten rice and pickles for more than ten years, the red-lint shrimp is no different from the rare in the world. Delicious and addicting.

What’s more important is that after eating the Scarlet Shrimp, he clearly noticed that a mellow spiritual energy poured into his dantian like a stream, which made his cultivation level skyrocket in an instant!

Chen Xi couldn’t help but sigh with emotion. No wonder the rich and powerful families all have their own spiritual chefs. They can not only taste delicious food, but also absorb spiritual energy. Who wouldn’t like to enjoy such dishes?

Old Man Ma was very satisfied with Chen Xi’s performance. Actions were often more convincing than words, and Chen Xi’s devour just now was undoubtedly the highest praise for his cooking skills. However, he still said contemptuously: “Boy, this is the dish prepared for the cultivator of the day after tomorrow, can you be a little bit better?”

Chen Xi was silent, but his heart was full of embarrassment. Just now, he really lost his temper…

“For a qualified spiritual chef, delicious food is a road that can loosen the tongue and enrich the cultivation life. It is the ultimate goal of every spiritual chef’s lifelong exploration and climbing. A qualified spiritual chef is not that simple.”

Old Man Ma’s expression suddenly became extremely solemn, and his eyes showed endless enthusiasm and determination.

Chen Xi was stunned, unconsciously, he was full of expectations for his future life!
