"First, I am an incense burner, not a chef; second, I have no intention of climbing to the top. I just choose to lie down halfway up the mountain."
Open up!
"Damn it, you are wasting your talent, you know!"
"I think it's okay."
Gu Sanqiu thought for a while: "Wait a minute, you just said you were in Mondstadt some time ago?"
"yes."
"Then why don't you come to me for a meal or something? Isn't it fun to meet an old friend in a foreign country?"
"Oh, you were talking about the last time. When the envoy arrived in Mondstadt, I should have been at Cape Lookout to study the possibility of incorporating Cecilia flowers and raspberries into desserts."
Xiang Ling spread her hands: "When I came back, I found out that our great Feng Xiang people had helped Mond solve the problem and then left. What can I do?"
"But thanks to you, during my time in Mondstadt, not only the major shops in Mondstadt were willing to give me discounts, but even the Knights came to ask me if there was anything I needed help with."
Xiangling smiled and said: "Because this saves some money, I will stay outside for a while."
Gu Sanqiu nodded, it turns out that the two places, Nursery Secret Realm and Wangfeng Cape, are one to the south and the other to the north. It is normal that we have not encountered them.
"But, putting aside other things, can raspberry and cecilia flowers really be combined to make a dessert?"
Gu Sanqiu asked: "The sweetness of the berries is indeed enough. Have you ever tasted the taste of Cecilia flowers?"
Sensing that black aura began to emanate from Gu Sanqiu's body, Xiangling waved her hands repeatedly, and then raised her hands to salute Gu Sanqiu.
"No, I strictly followed the "Safety Guidelines for Wilderness Survival" formulated by Mr. Care, and I never ate anything else without any companions in the wild."
"Ah, very good."
Gu Sanqiu nodded, and before Xiangling could breathe a sigh of relief, he quickly sent out the second fatal question.
"But I remember that due to the limitations of natural conditions at Cape Lookout, except for the staff who watch the blowing wind and the members of the Knights of the West Wind, other people who want to go there should need various certificates."
Xiangling's face suddenly stiffened.
In addition to possible reasons such as climate detection, Cape Lookout and the Lookout Mountains are places where a certain Mondstadt with the highest combat power often "wreaks havoc", so it makes sense to restrict access.
In this era when most people believe that there are wild treasures buried in the mountains and forests, if someone accidentally digs up a "gift", something big will happen.
"By the way, you just seemed to have mentioned how much the Knights took care of you because of me?"
Gu Sanqiu narrowed his eyes, and the glasses condensed with rock elements on his face lit up with a dazzling white light.
"There is only one truth. You reversed the order. You wanted to go near Cape Lookout and Lookout Mountain. You didn't return to Qingquan Town to study the forest pigs until you were told that you needed a certificate of access."
"After this, or after you recovered from your research, when you went to Mondstadt, you found that you were getting preferential treatment as a Liyue person, and then you thought about going to that area again, and asked the knight
Someone from the group will issue a certificate for you, am I right?"
"No way, how is it possible? There is no such thing."
Xiangling sat on the stool and twisted around, looking quite unnatural.
"Oh, then I'll call you..."
"Don't!"
Xiangling stood up quickly, clasped her hands and bowed to Gu Sanqiu: "I was wrong, I was wrong, I was wrong. Mr. Gu has a lot of things, but please don't tell my dad!"
"Squad leader, what era is this title from?"
Gu Sanqiu rolled his eyes: "One or two people like to play tricks like this in front of me. Do you think I'm stupid?"
"No, no, the squad leader is wise, powerful and handsome, but I was too reckless. I will seriously reflect on my mistakes!"
"Oh, okay, then I won't snitch."
Gu Sanqiu took out a pen and paper to write and draw: "This transfer order is for you. Starting from tomorrow, you need to be responsible for the food of some workers and Qianyan Army at the dock for a total of three days."
"At that time, you just need to take this piece of paper to the General Affairs Department, and they will arrange the specific work items for you."
"As for the cooking idea that you mentioned about warming up the taste of multiple elements and ultimately integrating them under the wrap of flames, I suggest you review the cooking methods of large pot dishes."
"Well, to be more sophisticated, maybe life will give you inspiration?"
"Take back your questioning tone, monitor!"
Xiang Ling was dejected: "I just got home and haven't had much rest yet, and you actually want me to go to work. Is this really the same monitor who used to lie on the table and didn't even bother to move?"
"Well, in fact, if it weren't for practical factors, I would also want to lie still during this period."
Gu Sanqiu's eyes were dark: "But there's nothing I can do about it. I also have things to do. In this case, dragging a few people into the water can help me regain my mood. You can also get busy for me."
"Damn it, I protest!"
"卯......"
"I promised!"
Xiangling retreated.
"Very good, believe me, you will definitely understand something."
"Nana——"
Suddenly, a stubby hand reached out to the table and took away the last fat piece of fish belly from Gu Sanqiu's boiled fish.
"Ouch, crispy rice!"
Xiangling quickly turned around and hugged her little friend: "You can't steal other people's food. If you are hungry, I will cook for you first."
"I've seen...yo, Guo Ba, long time no see."
Gu Sanqiu smiled and waved at the cute creature that suddenly appeared.
If he were to be called strictly according to his seniority, he should be called "senior", but this seems to go against the idea of "senior".
If that's the case, then just call him like a normal person.
Guo Ba looked up and was obviously startled when he saw it was Gu Sanqiu. Then he glanced at the boiled fish on the table.
!!!
Σ(っ°Д°;)っ
"Hey, Guo Ba, what are you doing? Don't move. You haven't washed your hands yet, so don't put your hands in your mouth!"
Guo Ba's expression became frightened. If Xiang Ling hadn't stopped him, he might have stuffed his hands into his mouth.
Gu Sanqiu was silent.
Maybe, you want to fish out the piece of fish you just ate?
Combined with what Brother Mandrill said to him, he seemed to have understood something.
"Well, don't worry. This bowl of boiled fish was made by Master Mao from Wanmintang. I definitely didn't add any strange seasonings to it. Please believe me."
After hearing what Gu Sanqiu said, Guo Ba's struggling movements became much smaller. Finally, he sniffed the boiled fish on the table before completely calming down.
"Alas, there is still a long way to go."
Gu Sanqiu sighed, and there was still a long way to go in every sense of the word.
"I'm sorry, squad leader, how about I make another copy for you now?"
"No, just have a meal quietly. I have something to do later, so go ahead and do it."
Gu Sanqiu began to think about the ingredients he found out from the golden finger. He must find an opportunity to cook a good meal to justify his craftsmanship.
At the same time, we also need to clear the name of the Gu family. Apart from the fact that his family commits suicide, which may be a blood inheritance, the dark cuisine is really not!
