Chapter 276 The Big Boss and Dark Cuisine(1/2)
As for Catherine, she actually quite likes Jiang Jin.
...Don't get me wrong, Catherine's kind of love is not a love between men and women, it is closer to a love for pets.
After all, in the eyes of Catherine, who has lived for so many years and has reached a level close to that of a god, she and humans are no longer the same creature.
It is precisely because she views humans from such a high perspective that Catherine likes humans, just like humans love small animals such as kittens and puppies.
Among them, Jiang Jin, a very interesting young man, is obviously Catherine's favorite little animal, because it can make her feel novel after a long time.
The "Mimetic Egg Fried Rice" dish at the last luncheon was so amazing that even in Catherine's thousands of years of life experience, she had never seen it before, which naturally left an extremely deep impression on her.
But Catherine never expected that this interesting chef would actually be related to her safe house.
And if I read it correctly... what he is holding seems to be... the Blade of Passion?
Suddenly, Catherine looked at the pomegranate dagger held in Jiang Jin's hand, with a glint in her eyes.
In the past many years, it is naturally not the first time that Catherine has seen this artifact given to the messenger by the God of Desire.
If Catherine remembers correctly, the last time this artifact came out was almost five hundred years ago.
At that time, a sealer got this artifact by chance, or it was the sealer who the artifact came to find.
And under the bewitchment of this artifact, the sealer almost released the "God of Desire" Asmodeus. It can be said to be a terrible natural disaster that few people know about.
Fortunately, this operation was quickly noticed by the "Night Watch" at the time. With the action of several senior officials...mainly "Mahatma" Kusa, the situation was quickly calmed down.
However, according to what Kusa said later, this artifact with the divine power of desire disappeared in the end, and it was unknown where it was hidden by the sealer.
Just for this dagger, the Night Watch later searched all over the world, but found nothing.
Unexpectedly... this lost artifact actually appeared in front of Catherine again today, and fell into the hands of such a young man.
Looking at Jiang Jin holding the Blade of Passion, Catherine's eyes flickered slightly, as if she was thinking about how to deal with this matter.
According to normal logic, as the leader of the Night Watch, she must confiscate this artifact and then arrest this young man to "Sky Prison. Partridge Island" to eat in prison.
Generally speaking, the vast majority of prisoners who are extremely harmful to the world will be executed on the spot.
But if there are some prisoners who are not suitable for direct execution and still have some value for exploitation, they will be imprisoned in the prison above the cloud.
Because the environment in "Partridge Island" is harsh, the management is strict, and it is located high in the sky, there is no possibility of jailbreak.
Therefore, many prisoners there have been locked up for hundreds of years, and there are even old unfortunates who have been locked up for two or three thousand years.
If you were imprisoned in such a prison, then life would really be worse than death. It might be easier to chop him into pieces on the spot.
What should we do? Should we take him to Partridge Island... But in this case, will there be some...
If it were an ordinary person, Catherine would not have hesitated for even a second. She would have been caught on the spot and thrown to the bottom of the cell.
But Jiang Jin was a young man she was very optimistic about, and he had given her a very novel taste recently, which made Catherine somewhat hesitant.
While Catherine was hesitating, she subconsciously walked back from the top terrace of the safe house, as if she was taking a walk.
This has been Catherine's old habit for many years. Whenever the big leader encounters any tangled situation, she will walk around like this, and the walking distance will not exceed three meters.
This habit has been developed by Catherine since she was very young, and it is also related to some special experiences she had as a child.
However, when Catherine walked back a short distance, she saw a small box in the corner of the terrace.
The shape of this box looks very strange, and it is still cool even on this hot day.
This is... an insulated box? And it seems to contain ice cubes and the like?
With bursts of curiosity, Catherine walked over and opened the box, and her eyes immediately opened slightly.
Ice, the first thing that comes into view when you open the box is a piece of white ice.
In the center of the ice cube is a silver bowl sealed with a bowl lid, which seems to contain something.
The large silver bowl is tightly secured by the lid, and it exudes a cool air because it is surrounded by ice cubes, giving it an icy and cool feeling.
Naturally, Catherine knew about this primitive icing method, but she could not imagine what was icing in the silver bowl.
Generally speaking, the iced snacks that need to be treated with this icing method are ice cream-like snacks.
Now that the weather is hot, it’s not surprising that you can see similar ice cream carts filled with ice cubes everywhere.
What's more, "Snowflake Ice", the world's first ice snack, was actually invented by Catherine.
The invention of this sweet dessert also has a story, although it is an unbearable past for Catherine.
On a hot day back then, because she couldn't bear the heat, she ran to the ice cellar alone to escape the heat, and drank cold sweet milk while leaning on the ice cubes.
But maybe because the ice cellar made her feel too comfortable, Catherine actually fell asleep while drinking, pouring half a cup of sweet milk onto the big ice cube.
When she woke up, she saw that the sweet milk had formed stubble on the ice cubes. Curiously, she dug up the sweet milk ice cubes with a shovel and ate them, only to find that the taste was very sweet and refreshing.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!
From then on, the unique dessert "Snowflake Ice" was officially invented and spread to all over the world at an extremely fast speed. Over the next thousands of years, people continued to make improvements that people loved.
.
To this day, when people happily eat ice cream every year in the hot summer, who would have thought that this kind of food was born just because a certain boss fell asleep in the ice cellar... and it has not been popularized yet.
Freeze to death.
So to this day, when seeing this kind of food served in ice cubes in a silver bowl, most people will think of ice cream without even guessing.
But the problem is that Catherine knows that this young man Jiang Jin has so many tricks up his sleeve that she is completely unable to predict what he might put in the bowl.
What is this? What on earth is this? It’s really unbearable.
So looking at the silver bowl, Catherine couldn't help but fold her hands and fell into deep thought.
For this great leader who has been in power for thousands of years, it is very rare to be in such a state of curiosity and excitement.
She has basically lost interest in most things in the world early on, and is now in a state of just eating and waiting to die, living day by day.
Even the reason why Catherine has been the leader of the Night Watch for so many years is not so much that she really wants to protect humans, but rather that she wants to find something to do for herself to avoid being bored to the point of committing suicide.
Because of this, she cherishes these things that interest her, just like she cherishes Jiang Jin, the young cook.
However, although Catherine was very curious about the contents of the silver bowl, she also knew that it was someone else's personal belongings after all, so opening it secretly like this was somewhat indecent.
I am the first seat of the night watchman, the dignified "Silver Candle Divine Chosen", how can I do such a shameful thing?
But the young man named Jiang Jin holds the artifact of the God of Desire in his hand, which shows that he should be bewitched by the God of Desire.
Well...in order to find out what happened to this young man, it seems necessary to conduct a detailed inspection of the items around him.
That's right, I didn't open other people's personal belongings out of curiosity or greed, it was out of carelessness... Bah, it was out of righteousness, out of a righteous act without any selfishness.
After skillfully anesthetizing herself with "Theory of Great Meanings", Catherine picked up the cold silver bowl and opened it carefully.
Catherine has a very high opinion of Jiang Jin who made the "Mimetic Egg Fried Rice", so she also thinks that the contents of this silver bowl will be very amazing.
Unexpectedly, the moment I opened the lid of the bowl, what was revealed was a huge disappointment.
This is a bowl...a bowl...a bowl of dark, strange stuff that I don't know how to describe, so that Catherine suddenly turned down her face.
To describe it simply, the contents of the silver bowl are like a bowl of coal ash boiled into a sticky semi-solid liquid, with some white milk jelly in the middle and a layer of finely chopped smoothie underneath.
The contents of this bowl, at least judging from the appearance, are not likely to be liked by Catherine, or most people will definitely not like it at first sight.
After all, you are so black, you are like a bowl of soot covered with ice. What is this?
But after Catherine experienced the initial disappointment, she looked at the situation in the silver bowl with an objective eye again, and saw an unexpected scenery.
Because the bottom of the silver bowl is covered with finely crushed smoothie, it should be a bowl of something similar to "snowflake ice".
The soot-like semi-solid liquid here looks gray at first glance, but if you take a closer look, it gives people a very delicate feeling.
Especially when paired with the white milk jelly and transparent smoothie on the top and bottom, looking from top to bottom, it will show a gradient of black, gray, white and transparent, which can actually give people a wonderful artistic beauty.
p>
And when you get closer and smell it, you can smell a faint aroma of sesame and sweet taro from the cold breath.
Sesame? Taro? Wait... Is this bowl of dark stuff made of these things? Isn't it too strange?
After quickly realizing what these dark, sticky things were, Catherine suddenly seemed even more confused.
There is indeed such a thing as "sesame" in the world, but in most cases it is used as a medicinal ingredient rather than simply as food.
People in humid areas often use sesame oil to treat arthritis, sprains and neuralgia, while people in desert areas like to boil sesame leaves in water to make a paste for treating skin diseases.
In some overseas islands, local residents believe that the juice of sesame stalks has an aphrodisiac effect, and sesame itself is used as an emetic or an auxiliary drug to treat insomnia.
In short, people in many places use sesame, but adding it to smoothies as a dessert is a way of eating it that Catherine has never thought of... and mixing it with taro is even weirder.<
/p>
Taro is a rare root vegetable that can only be seen occasionally in tropical areas. Only the residents of Yege eat it regularly.
The way to eat taro is either to cook it into a sticky paste with tomatoes and chicken, or cut it into thin slices and fry it as an appetizer or side dish. Who would have thought of adding this thing to dessert? Isn’t this nonsense?
p>
It was precisely because this bowl of sesame and taro smoothie was far beyond Catherine's imagination that she was in a stalemate holding the silver bowl in her hand.
What should I do? I always feel like this is a trap. Should I eat it? Or not?
