Chapter 145 Luo He: Zao Lord?!

Master Haiyue lost to a little-known rookie in the breeder world, which caused quite a stir in the circle.

Someone posted a video of Luo He making "Pagoda Meat" on the Internet yesterday, and the number of views quickly exceeded 10,000.

"This dish is actually made of winter melon? How amazing!"

"He can actually do micro carvings on the dishes?"

"This knife skill is outrageous!"

"As we all know, trainers are just a side job, and cooking is the new king's main job!"

That night, after the cooking competition was over, Luo He received a contact from Xia Miao.

"Can you tell me how you feel about defeating a powerful enemy and gaining the right to be the chef of the 'Hearth Sacrifice Ceremony'?"

Xia Miao imitated the tone of the female host and asked seriously.

Luo He followed the conversation and started talking:

"Thank you to the Hunter Association for giving me the opportunity to participate in this cooking competition, and thank you to the organization for cultivating me..."

In one paragraph, he thanked two organizations, which was flawless. Chef Luo praised his emotional intelligence.

"Okay, there's no need to show loyalty at this time."

Xia Miao interrupted with a smile, a little curious, and said: "Let me tell you, where did you learn this kind of knife skills? Did you eat the fruits of the chef's moves?"

Luo He's "Winter Melon Pagoda Meat" showed extremely high attainments in knife skills, and Xia Miao thought that she could not compare with it.

However, knife skills have always required accumulation. How did Luo He master such miraculous knife skills when he was only eighteen years old?

Luo He used the same old rhetoric: "I awakened my talents related to cooking."

Xia Miao accepted this statement without delving into it. After all, her attainments in the field of spices were closely related to her trainer's talent.

Immediately, Xia Miao talked about Luo He's performance in this mission and said with a smile:

"Comrade 'Sly Rabbit' performed outstandingly in this operation. I will report your results to the leader in a timely manner so that you can remember your merits."

Luo He's heart moved, and he vaguely felt that his position in the Hunter Association was almost higher than his position in the ninth game.

Boss Silver Fox, hurry up and close the Internet cafe.

If this continues, I will become the fifth among the four heavenly kings!

"What should I do next?" Luo He asked.

"Follow the official arrangements, host the stove ceremony, and report any valuable information to me in a timely manner."

Xia Miao lazily said: "Of course, you are not worried about being exposed..."

"If you really encounter a situation, the organization will support you!"

Although this is just a big picture, it still sounds very heartwarming.

Luo He said sincerely: "Thank you, King Xia!"

Xia Miao smiled and said: "You're welcome, let's sleep together when you have time."

After hanging up the contact, Luo He began to seriously prepare for tomorrow's 'Zao Sacrifice' itinerary.

[Zao Lord Festival] The reason why the ‘Culinary Skills Competition’ project is established is to select the chefs responsible for cooking the ‘Zao Lord Festival Food’.

Luo He took out the Xuanwu board, caressed the anvil surface, which was as fine as jade, and murmured:

"Whether we can satisfy Lord Zao with this meal tomorrow depends on our performance."

Xuanwu Board currently has two confirmed abilities: increasing the nutrition and taste of food ingredients, and restraining the power of Xuanwu with the blood of turtles and snakes.

There is also an ability to be "invulnerable to all poisons". Luo He is not sure yet. He may not be able to find out until the space level is improved and the connection with the Xuanwu Board becomes closer.

Generally speaking, this legendary kitchen utensil is Luo He's secret weapon for presiding over the stove ceremony.

"Hey~" Xiaojiu raised his paw next to him, indicating that he also participated.

Luo He was stunned for a moment and said with a smile: "That's right, you will have to control the fire tomorrow."

According to legend, Zaojun loves sweets, and the tooth-sticky and sweet Zao Candy is his favorite.

I will make a sweet meal for Zaojun according to Xiaojiu’s taste!

The next day, early morning.

Luo He came to the outskirts of the city and met Master Miaoxi and Cheng Ankang.

Previously, the three of them only discussed the distribution of the 'King Rank Move Fruit' online, and had no personal relationship offline. Therefore, Butler Cheng also talked to Luo He for the first time.

"Mr. Luo." The man dressed in a tuxedo behaved appropriately and said politely, "My young lady often mentions your name. When I meet you today, you are indeed a talented person."

Luo He was a little confused and hesitated: "Your lady? Who are you?"

"My surname is Jiang and my first name is Yuenuan. I have caused you a lot of trouble before. I would like to apologize to you again."

Steward Cheng said modestly: "Currently, I am serving as the steward of the Jiang family, so I have heard of many of your deeds."

It turned out to be the housekeeper of "Jiang·Driving into a tree·Yue Nuan".

Luo He suddenly realized and stood in awe, saying: "Nice to meet you, Master Cheng."

"If you don't want to be a master, just call me Butler Cheng."

Luo He didn't know why a master breeder volunteered to be a housekeeper, so he thought there must be something hidden in it.

Seeing that he was humble and polite, and that he was much older than him, Luo He chatted and said, "If you don't mind, I'll call you Uncle Cheng. We have to cooperate later."

Butler Cheng stopped giving in and said with a smile: "With you in charge, this stove sacrifice will go smoothly."

While chatting, Xia Sunian arrived after a long journey and coughed lightly:

"Sorry, I'm late. It took me a while on the road."

"Please three of you and me go to the ruins and take a look at the surroundings first, and then we will discuss the specific arrangements for the stove sacrifice," Xia Sunian said.

Luo He said: "In other words, the stove sacrificial ceremony will be held in the ruins?"

Xia Xunian shook his head and said: "The Stove Sacrifice Ceremony is held outside near the ruins. I will explain the origin of this [Zao Lord Sacrifice] in detail on the way, so that everyone can have a deeper understanding of this Stove Sacrifice Ceremony."

With that said, Xia Xunian summoned a pet beast in the shape of a compass and carefully looked at the direction indicated on the compass.

This kind of pet is called "Compass". It has the ability to find paths and has unique performance in the fields of Feng Shui and Qi observation. It is a must-have pet for Feng Shui masters.

In the summer of Xia Su, he lifted up the compass and let it float in the sky to guide the way.

He and Luo He explained the causes and consequences of this Zao Lord Sacrifice.

After Luo He heard the whole story, he said in surprise:

"In the ruins of Emperor Nong, a statue of Lord Zao was discovered?"

Xia Sunian nodded and said: "Yes, and this is the first time a statue of the Kitchen God has been discovered. This news has not been announced to the outside world yet."

"The discovery of the statue of the Kitchen God is of great importance. In order to avoid disasters and pray for blessings, this great sacrifice to the Kitchen God was held."

Xia Sunian said, "In the ceremony, 'sacrifice to the stove' is the most critical part."

"Sacrificing the stove is also called giving away the stove. You need stove candies, stove cakes and other sacrifice foods to complete the ritual of sending the stove and let the spirit of the Kitchen Lord return to heaven."

"In short, it takes three people to cook the appropriate food for the stove to ensure that the delivery of the stove goes smoothly." Xia Sunian said.

Luo He felt a little excited in his heart.

Statue of Lord Zao?

Unlike statues and portraits, there is a high possibility of residual spiritual consciousness.

Even if there is only a remnant of spiritual consciousness, it is undoubtedly the spirit of Kitchen Lord.

In other words, in today’s ceremony of worshiping the Kitchen God, it is very possible to see the real God of the Kitchen God!

"Mr. Xia Sunian, can we see the statue of Lord Zao?" Luo He asked.

"I need to get approval from my superiors first. I believe it will be OK after the stove ceremony." Xia Sunian said.

Luo He nodded and thought to himself:

"Senior Turtle is still drinking hot water at home, it's too late to call him."

"If I can really see Kitchen Lord again, this little fanboy doesn't know how happy he should be!"

Half an hour later, everyone arrived at a ruins outside the city.

The site has become a protected area and a temporary research institute has been built.

"This is the recently discovered relic of the Nong Emperor." Xia Sunian introduced, "According to our team's research findings, this relic was mainly used to worship the Kitchen God under the Nong Emperor."

Leading everyone to a cave with traces of survey, Xia Sunian said: "The stone tablet and statue of Zao Lord were found around this cave."
