“I can cook more than the 30 kinds of dishes on the menu, but those dishes are not as good as those on the menu, so I don’t dare to show them.”
Huang Ying was no longer nervous at this time, she felt that this young couple was looking for trouble, but they just had a special pursuit of delicious food. Since there is only a special pursuit of deliciousness, then things are much easier to handle.
“If you two want to taste more and better delicacies, you might as well go to Jixiang Xiaozhu.” Huang Ying said.
“Jixiang Xiaozhu? That’s the place where you learned cooking?”
The young man was really shocked by the culinary skills of Huang Ying and others when he first came to eat at Manlou. Ren’s cooking skills were learned in Jixiang Xiaozhu Middle School.
“We have been to the extremely fragrant small building you mentioned, but it is closed there, and the residents in the city say that it has been closed for half a month.” The young woman said.
“The two of you should have gone there before, my ancestor has already returned today.” Huang Ying said.
“Patriarch?”
The young men and women all stared wide-eyed, they naturally knew what the Patriarch represented.
“Yes, Patriarch.”
Huang Ying’s voice paused, and then said again: “However, although the Patriarch taught us cooking skills, he did not accept us as apprentices. We just call him Patriarch out of respect.”
“Puff.”
The young woman couldn’t help laughing: “Cook, do you know what Patriarch means?”
“Of course I know! My patriarch came into Taoism through diet, and the dishes he handed down once shocked the two of you. I call him the patriarch of our diet. Isn’t that too much?” Huang Ying said with a smile .
“The way of eating? Haha, hahahaha…”
The young woman couldn’t help laughing. Cooking is not a noble occupation in the mortal world. It just cooks delicious food. If you dare to say that you are a Taoist with food, you will be called the patriarch. This is seen by the young woman. It’s really like a child’s play like playing house.
“Junior Sister!”
The young man glared at the young woman.
“Since Jixiang Xiaozhu has opened, let’s go over there and have a look!” said the young man.
“The daily opening hours over there are shorter than here. If the two of you want to taste the delicious food there, you really have to hurry up. In half an hour, there will be a foreign trade there.”
The other party looked down on the way of eating and drinking. Although Huang Ying had a smile on her face, she didn’t want to say anything more to the two of them.
Fortunately, the young men and women didn’t say anything more, and the two immediately set off for Jixiang Xiaozhu.
Feeling that someone has arrived outside the gate of Jixiang Xiaozhu, Lingzhu, who had been practicing with her eyes closed, immediately greeted him with a smile.
“Welcome to Jixiang Xiaozhu!”
Lingzhu likes to be busy, too leisurely will make her feel bored. Seeing the two wearing martial arts clothes, Lingzhu is happy to think that this is the last business before going abroad today.
Facing Lingzhu who greeted him with a smiling face, the young man frowned slightly, because the jade pendant he was wearing next to his body suddenly moved, which let him know that the black beauty opposite was a demon cultivator.
“Are you the shopkeeper of this extremely fragrant small building?”
The young man knows something about Jixiang Xiaozhu, but he doesn’t know whether the shopkeeper here is a man or a woman.
“I am not the shopkeeper here. The shopkeeper here is my husband. He is upstairs now. Are you here for dinner?”
The young man frowned slightly just now, but he did not escape Lingzhu’s eyes.
“Come here to eat, of course!”
The young woman frowned, she felt that Lingzhu’s tone was not very good.
“Let’s look at the rules and the menu first!”
Flicking the Lingzhu on the wall, the light curtain appeared with the rules and menu of Jixiang Xiaozhu.
Looking at the menu on the wall, the young men and women’s eyes widened, and their eye contact was full of disbelief.
At this time, Gu Zheng, who had already refined an inner alchemy, had already come down from the second floor.
“You two, I am the shopkeeper of Jixiang Xiaozhu, and I am also the fairy chef of Jixiang Xiaozhu.” Gu Zheng said.
“Fairy chef?”
If you haven’t read the menu, the young woman’s eyes will definitely widen when she hears Gu Zheng claiming to be so. But even after reading the menu and being deeply shocked by the items on the menu, the young woman still felt very awkward when she heard that Gu Zheng claimed to be a fairy chef! Either they are immortal cultivators, or they are cooks. They are nondescript, not to mention how ugly it is.
As if seeing the young woman’s heart, Gu Zheng looked at the young woman and said, “Do you think the title of fairy chef is ugly?”
“Yes, I don’t think it’s ugly!”
The young woman had already said “yes”, but Gu Zheng’s eyes that seemed to want to see her heart made her panic, so she changed her words hastily.
The young man also felt that Gu Zheng’s gaze was too sharp, so he took a step to the right to block Gu Zheng’s view of the young woman.
Seeing the nervous look of the young man, Gu Zheng smiled slightly and said, “Don’t be nervous, as long as you don’t have any malicious intentions, I don’t have any malicious intentions either.”
“No, why would we have malicious intentions? I just heard that the dishes made by Jixiang Xiaozhu are very delicious, so I came here just because of the name.”
The young man is in a hurry. He is usually a very arrogant person, but today in this extremely fragrant small building, facing the ancient dispute who seems to be about the same age as them, the young man is a kind of pressure from the heart. , which is intuitive.
“You’re okay.”
Gu Zheng smiled at the young man, and sat on the chair by himself.
“Girl, are you deeply suspicious of the things written on my wall?” Gu Zheng spoke again.
“It is very suspicious!”
Gu Zheng didn’t have a strong aura, but when he was questioning him, and when he was looking directly at him, the young woman was a little flustered, which made her, who was calm now, feel sorry for her past. Be annoyed! Now, hearing that Gu Zheng actually asked this question, the young woman blurted out this time.
“Are you suspicious of food, diet therapy, and diet training?” Gu Zheng asked.
“That’s right!” The young woman raised her chin slightly.
“Okay! Then order it, whether it’s food, diet therapy or food repair, I will definitely convince you!” Gu Zheng smiled confidently.
“Just click!”
“Yulian Beef”
“Steamed Seabass”
“Purple Heart Snails Brewed with Immortals”
“Braised Crawfish in Oil”
“Honey Juicy Eggplant”
“Fried Shanzhen”
“Season’s Taro Mixed with Lily”
“Fried Immortal Toon Fish”
“Chestnut Salty Meat Soup”
“Fairy Fruit Eight Treasure Soup”
The young woman did not include the lake, so she ordered eight dishes and two soups in one go. When she and the young man went to a full house before, they also ordered eight dishes and two soups at a time, otherwise it would be too much for a full house to have more than 30 dishes. Not going to be tasted by them anytime soon.
“Great!”
Gu Zheng gave a thumbs up to the young woman who ordered eight dishes and two soups.
“You have read the rules. For the eight dishes and two soups you ordered, the ingredients are provided by Jixiang Xiaozhu. In addition to charging the cost of your ingredients themselves, you also need to charge 20% of the total value of the ingredients. As a reward. Therefore, for the eight dishes and two soups you ordered, you need to pay Jixiang Xiaozhu a total of forty-seven blue fairy coins, plus fifteen yellow fairy coins.” Gu Zheng said.
“What?”
After listening to what Gu Zheng said, the young woman’s eyes widened. Although the menu said that the charging standard was 20% of the total value of the ingredients, it didn’t say how many cents a piece of ingredients cost. The young woman thought it might be a little more expensive, but she didn’t expect it to be so expensive! After all, a blue fairy coin is almost a top-quality resource.
“Just now you said you were rich, why are you so surprised now?” Gu Zheng laughed.
“Fellow daoist, although we are not short of this fairy coin, we can’t spend it wrongly, right?” the young man said.
“This is Xianchu restaurant. It is different from ordinary restaurants. In ordinary restaurants, you order food and pay the shopkeeper silver. Eating it doesn’t increase your immortal power. But in Jixiang Xiaozhu, the food you order not only tastes better, but also increases your immortal power after eating, shouldn’t it be more expensive?” Gu Zheng said.
“Forty-seven blue fairy coins, plus fifteen yellow fairy coins, very good!”
The young woman sneered: “Then you said after paying such a big price, how much can these dishes increase my immortal power?”
“That depends on what level your cultivation is.” Gu Zheng said.
“In the early stage of becoming a god.” The young woman said.
“If you eat these dishes alone, it’s no problem to increase your cultivation for thirty years! Of course, this thirty years refers to thirty years of normal cultivation, without the aid of pills and the like. .” Gu Zheng said.
“How dare you accept so much fairy coins from me after only thirty years of cultivation?”
The young woman was a little crazy, if she hadn’t still had scruples about Gu Zheng, she might have turned the table angrily at this time.
“First of all, this is Xianchu restaurant. When you come here to order food, the most fundamental purpose is to taste delicious food. The increase of Xianli is just incidental. Secondly, you can’t eat too much food in Xianchu restaurant at one time. If there are too many, Xianli will be unable to switch. Like the two of you, you can normally order four dishes and one soup, but you are more wealthy, and you ordered eight dishes and two soups, which is another matter!”
Gu Zheng only said first and second, but he didn’t mention the most important point, which is mood! If the guest speaks well and makes him feel more comfortable, or if he thinks the guest is more pleasing to the eye, he will consider making the food transform into more immortal power when cooking food. But if the guests make him unhappy, then when he cooks the food, he only guarantees the taste of the food and the minimum transformation of Xianli.
The woman didn’t know what to say for a while. There was indeed some suggestion on the wall to order four dishes and one soup for two, but it was not written clearly what would happen if she didn’t accept the suggestion. She didn’t ask about it before because she was not short of money.
“Okay, just follow what fellow daoists say.”
The young man didn’t want the young woman to say anything, so he paid Gu Zheng directly with the immortal coins.
“Wait for now, I’ll cook for you.”
After receiving the fairy coins, Gu Zheng immediately took the Lingzhu to the kitchen.
“What kind of broken restaurant is this!”
After Gu Zheng and Lingzhu left, the young woman almost shouted at the young man’s sound transmission. She thought her mentality was good enough, but after coming to Jixiang Xiaozhu, her mood became more and more serious. Difference.
“Junior sister Tan Ding, this extremely fragrant small building is very unusual.” The young man said.
“Yes, it’s really unusual. With some broken ingredients and cooking, you dare to charge so much fairy coins from customers!” The young woman said angrily.
“Let’s not talk about fairy coins.”
The young man’s voice paused, and then he said again: “The black girl before is a demon cultivator, and her strength has already reached the middle stage of Xuan Yao. If you make a mistake here, that black girl alone can clean up the two of us! “
“Huh?”
The young woman was shocked: “Senior brother’s ‘Jade Talisman’ has a reaction?”
“That’s right! A girl can have that kind of cultivation, not to mention the shop owner himself! Although he didn’t show any aura to us, he is an extremely powerful person intuitively.”
The young man’s voice paused, and then he said: “Perhaps, the owner’s cultivation is already in the realm of the Golden Immortal, maybe even higher!”
“No way?”
The young woman was shocked again: “Looking at his bones, he looks like he is hundreds of years old.”
“There are many powerful people with supernatural powers, and the real age cannot be judged by the bones! Moreover, you said that his bones are only a few hundred years old, which makes me more sure that he is powerful, because in my opinion, he His bones are less than a hundred years old! The two people saw two different situations, which can only mean that he did it on purpose, or that he himself has a characteristic that confuses people in this regard.” The young man said.
“Brother, what should we do now?”
If the young woman was just a little afraid of Gu Zheng before, she is really a little scared now.
“I believe that he doesn’t open a black shop, and I also believe that he said that if we don’t have malicious intentions, he doesn’t have any malicious intentions.” The young man said.
“Brother, why do you believe it?” The young woman asked again.
“Because it’s not necessary!” The young man shrugged and smiled.
When the young woman thought about it, she also felt that the young man’s words were not unreasonable, but she still felt a little uneasy when the price of vegetables in the ancient dispute was heard.
“About how much immortal power can be increased, his answer is actually quite general. I think the actual effect of those dishes must be worse.” The young woman said.
“Anyway, we want to taste the delicious food. He just needs to cook it well. As for how much immortal power can be increased, Junior Sister doesn’t need to be too serious, just treat it as an unexpected surprise!” The young man laughed.
“But this is not as simple as an ordinary delicacy! It cost my senior brother nearly forty-eight blue coins. If this matter is known to the rest of the sect, they will definitely laugh at us as prodigals.” The young woman said.
“If the effect is as he said, it can increase your cultivation base for thirty years, then it is actually not bad. If you take pills and want to increase your cultivation base for thirty years, not to mention how many immortal coins you will need to spend I bought the elixir, and the absorption of the medicinal effect alone is not something that can be done in a short period of time.” The young man said.
“That’s right! Try his dishes first, how good is the taste!” the young woman said.
“The taste is definitely not bad. After all, the chefs over there are learning to cook from him! What’s more, what he is cooking now is the voice of a cultivator. It will be closed soon.” The young man said enthusiastically.
Young men and women communicated in the hall, and Lingzhu, who helped Gu Zheng process the ingredients, also began to ask Gu Zheng curiously.
“Sir, this lady ordered so many dishes, but why did she increase her immortal power so little?” Lingzhu asked.
“The increase in Xianli is less, that’s because they are just ordinary customers, I naturally won’t increase Xianli too much. Otherwise, the business will be too busy, and trouble will come to the door!” Gu Zheng said.
“Trouble?” Lingzhu frowned.
“Yeah, trouble.”
Gu Zheng’s voice paused, and then he said: “It’s troublesome if there are too many guests, and the alchemist will regard us as enemies.”
After hearing what Gu Zheng said, Lingzhu nodded: “Sir, how can we control the amount of food converted into immortal power?”
“I’m just doing it based on experience now. After you open the Eye of Dao, how to control how much food immortal power converts will be clear at a glance.” Gu Zheng said.
Eight dishes and two soups, even if Gu Zheng can perfectly use the fire control and water control formulas, it will still take some time.
Finally, the eight dishes and two soups were ready, and Lingzhu brought them to the tables of young men and women one after another.
Shock appeared on the faces of young men and women, even if there were lids on each dish, the aroma could not be completely blocked.
When they ate at Manchulou for the first time, young men and women were shocked. How could there be such delicious food in the world! But now in Jixiang Xiaozhu, their cognition of incense has been broken, and this is still under the condition that the cover has not been opened.
If it weren’t for the previous unpleasantness, the young woman would definitely not be able to help feeling emotional about the smell, but now she resists it. She feels that if she praises the food as fragrant or delicious, it will be a shameful thing.
The dishes were already on the table, and the young woman immediately lifted one of the lids on the plate.
The dish that the young woman uncovered was “Yulian Beef”. The white air that was originally covering the bottom of the plate retracted into the ingredients immediately after touching the air. A nebulized calf came out of the food. It raised its head and opened its mouth towards the two people at the table, as if calling. Its appearance was indescribably agile. After yelling at the two of them, the calf ran over the food, as if having fun on the grass.
Pure white jade lotus petals, sauce-red beef, smart calf, and an indescribably attractive aroma.
“Gudong!”
Almost in unison, the young men and women swallowed at the same time.
“Brother~IndoMTL.com~What’s the matter with this atomized calf? Is it a fairy art?” The young woman asked through sound transmission.
“It’s not like fairy art, there seems to be something very mysterious in it!” The young man replied through voice transmission.
“Open the second disc and have a look!”
After the young woman transmitted the sound, she immediately lifted the lid on the second plate.
The second dish is ‘Steamed Seabass’. The cod used is high-grade. When the lid is lifted, the fresh aroma will come. However, on this steaming ‘steamed seabass’, there is not much white mist that is extremely fragrant and transformed. However, just when the young woman wanted to tell the young man that this dish was not as amazing as before, Gu Zheng poured the night-time sauce into the ‘steamed seabass’.
‘Steamed seabass’ needs to be mixed with sauce, but the sauce is not poured on it when it is ready, but after it is served, so that the taste can be the best.
After a bowl of red sauce is poured on the seabass, a large amount of extremely fragrant white mist is produced. After entering the body of the seabass, they transform into a misty seabass swimming happily around the plate, and From time to time, a series of misty bubbles are spit out, which looks really agile.
