"Of course I can cook more than the thirty 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 out."
Huang Ying was no longer nervous at this time. She thought that this young man and woman were looking for trouble, but they just had a special pursuit of delicious food. Since they only had a special pursuit of delicious food, then things would be 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? Is that the place where you learned cooking?"
The first time he came to the crowded restaurant for dinner, the young man was really shocked by the cooking skills of Huang Ying and others. He also asked the waiter about Huang Ying and others, so he also knew about the cooking skills of Huang Ying and others.
I learned art at Jixiang Xiaozhu Middle School.
"We have been to the extremely fragrant little building you mentioned, but it is closed. The residents in the city said it has been closed for half a month," the young woman said.
"You two should have gone there before. My ancestor has returned today." Huang Ying said.
"Ancestor?"
The young men and women all widened their eyes, they naturally knew what the Patriarch represented.
"Yes, Patriarch."
Huang Ying paused, then continued: "However, although the ancestor taught us cooking skills, he did not accept us as disciples. We just call him the ancestor out of respect."
"Pfft."
The young woman couldn't help but laugh: "Cook, do you know what the ancestor means?"
"Of course I know! My ancestor started Taoism through food, and the dishes he handed down shocked two of them. I call him the ancestor of our food. Isn't this an exaggeration?" Huang Ying said with a smile.
"The way of eating? Haha, hahahaha..."
The young woman couldn't help but laugh. Being a cook is not a noble profession in the world. As long as the food you cook is delicious, you dare to say that you have entered Taoism through food and you will be called the ancestor. This is really true in the eyes of the young woman.
It's like child's play playing house.
"Junior sister!"
The young man glared at the young woman.
"Now that Jixiang Xiaozhu has opened, let's go there and have a look!" the young man said.
"The opening hours over there are shorter than here every day. If you two want to go there to taste the delicious food, you really need to hurry up. There will be an overseas visit in half an hour."
The other party looked down on the way of eating. Although Huang Ying had a smile on her face, she didn't want to say anything more to them.
Fortunately, the young man and woman didn't say anything more, and they immediately set off for the extremely fragrant building.
Sensing someone arriving outside the door of Jixiang Xiaozhu, Lingzhu, who had closed his eyes to practice, immediately greeted him with a smile.
“Welcome you two to Jixiang Xiaozhu!”
Lingzhu likes to be busy, and being too leisurely will make her bored. Seeing the two of them wearing martial arts clothes, Lingzhu happily felt that this was the last business before going overseas today.
Facing Lingzhu who greeted him with a smile, the young man frowned slightly because the jade pendant he was wearing suddenly moved, which made him know that the black beauty opposite him was a demon cultivator.
"Are you the shopkeeper of this extremely fragrant building?"
The young man knew something about Jixiang Xiaozhu, but he didn't know whether the shopkeeper here was a man or a woman.
"I am not the shopkeeper here. The shopkeeper here is my husband. He is upstairs now. Are you here to eat?"
The slight frown on the young man's brow just now did not escape Lingzhu's eyes, which made Lingzhu feel a little unhappy. He frowned when he saw it for the first time, which made people suspicious.
“When you come here, you naturally want to eat!”
The young woman frowned, she felt that Lingzhu's tone was not very good.
“Then let’s read the rules and menu first!”
The Lingzhu flicked against the wall, and a light screen 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 finished refining an inner elixir, had also walked down from the second floor.
"You two, I am the shopkeeper of Jixiang Xiaozhu, and I am also the chef of Jixiang Xiaozhu." Gu Zheng said.
"Fairy Chef?"
If you hadn’t seen the menu, the young woman would have widened her eyes when she heard Gu Zheng calling himself such a fairy. But even if she had seen the menu, she would have been deeply shocked by the things on the menu. But the young woman heard Gu Zheng calling himself an immortal.
Cooking, I still feel very awkward! Either a cultivator or a cook, the behavior is neither fish nor fowl, not to mention how unpleasant it is.
As if he could see into the young woman's heart, Gu Zheng looked at the young woman and said, "Do you think the title of Immortal Chef is unpleasant?"
"Yes, I don't think it's unpleasant anymore!"
The young woman had already said 'yes', but Gu Zheng's look as if he wanted to see into her heart made her panic, so she changed her words in a hurry.
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 young man's nervous and guarded look, Gu Zheng smiled slightly and said: "Don't be nervous, as long as you don't have any ill intentions, I don't have any ill intentions either."
"No, how can we have any ill intentions? We just heard that the food made by Jixiang Xiaozhu is very delicious, so we came here because of it."
The young man was in a hurry. He is also a very arrogant person on weekdays, but today in this extremely fragrant small building, facing Gu Zheng, who seemed to be about the same age as them, the young man felt a kind of pressure from his heart. This is
intuition.
"You're okay."
Gu Zheng smiled at the young man and sat on the chair minding his own business.
"Girl, are you deeply suspicious of the things written on my wall?" Gu Zheng spoke again.
"Very doubtful!"
Gu Zheng didn't have a very strong aura, but when he questioned him and looked directly at him, the young woman was a little panicked. This made her now calm and troubled by her previous performance.
!Now, after hearing Gu Zheng ask this question, the young woman blurted it out this time.
"Are you suspicious of food, diet therapy, and food cultivation?" Gu Zheng asked.
"That's right!" the young woman said with a slight tilt of her chin.
"Okay! Then you 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 Snow Fish”
"Purple Heart Snails Stuffed with Immortal Hui"
“Braised ice-water crawfish”
"Honey Sauce"
“Stir-fried mountain delicacies”
“Immortal taro mixed with lily”
“Fried squid”
“Crisp Chestnut Salted Pork Soup”
“Fairy fruit eight-treasure soup”
The young woman also ordered eight dishes and two soups at once. When she and the young man went to the restaurant before, they also ordered eight dishes and two soups at once. Otherwise, the more than 30 dishes at the restaurant would not be very satisfying.
They soon tasted it all.
"Luxury!"
Gu Zheng extended his thumb to the young woman who ordered eight dishes and two soups.
"You have read the rules. The ingredients for the eight dishes and two soups you ordered are provided by Jixiang Xiaozhu. In addition to charging you for the ingredients themselves, 20% of the total value of the ingredients will also be charged.
Remuneration. Therefore, for the eight dishes and two soups you ordered, you need to pay Jixiang Xiaozhu a total of forty-seven blue immortal coins, plus fifteen yellow immortal coins." Gu Zheng said.
"What?"
After hearing what Gu Zheng said, the young woman's eyes widened. Although the menu stated that the charge was 20% of the total value of the ingredients, it did not say how many cents each ingredient cost. The young woman thought that it might be a little more expensive.
, but I didn’t expect it to be so expensive! After all, a Blue Immortal Coin is almost a top-quality resource.
"I just said you were rich, why are you so surprised now?" Gu Zheng said with a smile.
"Fellow Taoist, although we are not short of this immortal coin, we can't spend it in vain, right?" the young man said.
"This is Xianchu Restaurant. It is different from ordinary restaurants. In ordinary restaurants, you order food and pay the store owner money. But what you eat can only be regarded as earthly delicacies. If you eat it, you will eat it.
It doesn't increase your immortal power. But at Jixiang Xiaozhu, the food you order not only tastes better, but also increases your immortal power after eating it. 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 how much do you think these dishes can increase my immortal power after paying such a heavy price?"
"That depends on what level of cultivation you are." Gu Zheng said.
"Early stage of transformation." The young woman said.
"If you eat these dishes alone, it will be no problem to increase your cultivation level by the equivalent of thirty years! Of course, this thirty years refers to thirty years of normal cultivation without the aid of pills or the like." Gu.
Fight for the road.
"I have only gained thirty years of cultivation, and you dare to accept so many immortal coins from me?"
The young woman was a little crazy. If she hadn't been wary of Gu Zheng, she would have flipped the table in anger.
"First of all, this is the Xianchu restaurant. When you order food, the most fundamental purpose is to taste the delicious food. The increase in Xianli is just incidental. Secondly, you cannot eat too much food at the Xianchu restaurant at one time. If you eat too much,
There will be situations where Xianli cannot be converted. Like the two of you, under normal circumstances it would be enough to order four dishes and one soup, but you are more generous and order eight dishes and two soups, so that is a different matter!"
Gu Zheng only mentioned the first and second, but he did not 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, when cooking the food
He will consider making the food convert more fairy power. But if the customer displeases him, then when cooking the food, he will only ensure the taste of the food and the minimum conversion of fairy power.
The woman didn't know what to say for a moment. There was indeed something on the wall suggesting that two people order four dishes and one soup, but it didn't clearly indicate what would happen if she didn't accept the suggestion. Since she was not short of money, she didn't ask about it before.
"Okay, just follow what fellow Taoist said."
The young man didn't want the young woman to say anything, so he directly paid Gu Zheng in fairy coins.
"You two wait a moment, I'll go cook for you right now."
After receiving the immortal coins, Gu Zheng immediately took the spirit beads to the kitchen.
"What kind of shabby restaurant is this!"
After Gu Zheng and Lingzhu left, the young woman's message to the young man was almost like a filial piety. She thought her mentality was good enough, but after arriving at Jixiang Xiaozhu, her mood became worse and worse.
"Junior sister Dan Ding, this extremely fragrant little building is very extraordinary." The young man said.
"Yes, it is indeed extraordinary. With some broken ingredients and cooking, you dare to charge so many immortal coins from the guests!" the young woman said angrily.
"Let's not talk about the fairy coins for now."
The young man's voice paused, and then he said: "The black girl from before is a demon cultivator, and her strength is already in the middle stage of the Xuan Yao. If you make trouble here, that black girl alone can deal with both of us!"
"ah?"
The young woman was shocked: "Did you react to senior brother's 'Jade Screening Talisman'?"
"That's right! A girl can have that kind of cultivation, let alone the shopkeeper himself! Although he didn't show any aura to us, we intuitively feel that he is an extremely powerful person."
The young man's voice paused, and then he added: "Perhaps, the shop owner's cultivation level is already at the Golden Immortal realm, or maybe even higher!"
"No way?"
The young woman was shocked again: "Looking at his bones, he looks hundreds of years old."
"Mighty people have many supernatural powers and cannot judge their true age by looking at their bones! Moreover, you said that his bones are only a few hundred years old, which makes me more and more sure that he is powerful, because in my opinion, his bones are hundreds of years old."
Less than two years old! Two people saw two different situations, which can only mean that he did it deliberately, 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 only a little afraid of Gu Zheng before, now she is really a little scared.
"I believe he doesn't run a black shop, and I also believe what he said if we don't have any ill intentions, he doesn't have any ill intentions either," the young man said.
"Brother, why do you believe it?" the young woman asked again.
"Because there's no need!" The young man shrugged and smiled.
When the young woman thought about it, she felt that what the young man said was reasonable, but when she heard the price of food in Gu Zheng, she still felt a little unhappy.
"As for 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 delicious food. As long as it tastes good, junior sister doesn't need to be too serious about how much immortal power it can increase. Let's just treat it as an unexpected surprise!" the young man said with a smile.
"But this is not as simple as ordinary delicacies! It cost senior brother nearly forty-eight Blue Immortal coins. If the rest of the sect knew about this, they would definitely laugh at us for wasting our family," the young woman said.
"If the effect is as he said, and it can increase your cultivation for thirty years, then it is actually not bad. If you take pills and want to increase your cultivation for thirty years, it doesn't matter how many immortal coins you need to spend to buy the pills.
Well, just the absorption of the medicinal effect is not something that can be done within a short period of time." The young man said.
"That's right! Try his cooking first to see how good it tastes!" said the young woman.
"The taste is definitely the same. After all, the chefs in the crowded restaurant all learned how to cook from him! What's more, what he is cooking now is the sound of cultivating immortals. If there is really no chance, this restaurant will be destroyed soon.
We need to close the door." The young man said hotly.
Young men and women were communicating in the hall, and Lingzhu, who was helping Gu Zheng handle the ingredients, also began to ask Gu Zheng curiously.
"Sir, this woman ordered so many dishes, but why did she gain so little immortal power?" Lingzhu asked.
"The increase in immortal power is small because they are just ordinary customers. Naturally, I won't let the immortal power increase too much. Otherwise, the business will be too busy and trouble will come!" Gu Zheng said.
"Trouble?" Lingzhu frowned.
"Yes, trouble."
Gu Zheng's voice paused, and then he added: "Too many guests will be troublesome, and the alchemist will also regard us as enemies."
After listening to what Gu Zheng said, Lingzhu nodded: "Sir, how can we control the amount of food-converting immortal power?"
"I'm just doing it based on experience now. After you open the Eye of Tao, it will be clear at a glance how to control the conversion of food's magical power." Gu Zheng said.
Eight dishes and two soups, even if Gu Zheng can perfectly perform the Fire Control Technique and Water Control Technique, it will still take some time.
Finally, the eight dishes and two soups were ready, and Lingzhu brought them to the tables of the young men and women one after another.
Shock appeared on the faces of the young men and women. Even if there was a lid on each dish, the aroma could not be completely blocked.
The first time they ate at the crowded restaurant, the young men and women were shocked. They thought how could there be such delicious food in the world! But now at Jixiang Xiaozhu, their perception of fragrance has been shattered. This is still
Without even opening the lid.
If it weren't for the previous unpleasantness, the young woman would definitely not be able to help sighing at the smell, but now she holds it back. She feels that it would be a shame if she complimented the food on how fragrant or delicious it was.
The dishes were already on the table, and the young woman immediately opened the lid on the plate.
The dish that the young woman opened the lid was "Yulian Beef". The white air that originally shrouded the bottom of the plate immediately retracted into the ingredients after contacting the air. Just as the two people at the table were confused, they became confused.
The calf emerged from the food. It raised its head and opened its mouth towards the two people at the table, as if it was barking. It looked indescribably agile. After barking at the two people, the calf was above the food.
He ran as if he were running on the grass.
The white jade lotus petals, the red beef, the agile calf, and the indescribable alluring aroma.
"Gudong!"
Almost at the same time, the young man and woman swallowed at the same time.
"Brother, what's going on with this atomized calf? Is it magic?" the young woman asked through a voice message.
"It's not like magic, there seems to be something very mysterious in it!" the young man replied via voice transmission.
“Open the second set and take a look!”
After the young woman conveyed the message, she immediately opened the lid on the second plate.
The second dish is 'Steamed Snowfish'. The cod ingredients used are of high quality. When the lid is opened, the fresh aroma comes out. However, the steaming 'Steamed Snowfish' is extremely fragrant.
There was not much white mist in the shape. However, just when the young woman wanted to tell the young man that this dish was not as spectacular as before, Gu Zheng poured the nightly sauce into the 'steamed snow fish'.
'Steamed Snow Fish' needs sauce to match, but the sauce is not poured on when it is cooked, but after it is served, so that the taste can be best.
After a bowl of red sauce is poured on the snowfish, a large amount of extremely fragrant white mist is produced. After entering the body of the snowfish, it transforms into a mist-like snowfish and swims happily around the plate, spitting out a series of smoke from time to time.
