On the seventh day when the named disciple test began, Qiao Bai had already left the border village and arrived at Kuye Town in Qiuse City.
When leaving the border village, Qiao Bai collected some ingredients. During the past few days, he also tried to cook the dishes cooked by the housewife of the Dong family. As he originally imagined, the four dishes he cooked now were better than
The housewife of the Dong family did well back then! Especially the four-point dish made by the housewife of the Dong family, he has been able to make it close to a five-point dish.
There is not much time left for Qiao Bai. After all, he needs to include the time for the return trip. This time when he comes to Dead Leaf Town, Qiao Bai hopes to have a better harvest.
Although Kuye Town is a town, because it is closer to the border, it is not as prosperous as the border village.
There is only one inn, three restaurants, and no restaurants in the town.
The town is filled with yellow sand from time to time. This is because Kuye Town is very close to the desert. Although it is relatively barren, due to the different regions, there are also different eating habits and some foods that are difficult to see elsewhere.
As per the old rule, Qiao Bai would visit the food stalls on the street first.
The first street stall sells kebabs.
The freshness of the mutton was no problem and the taste was quite fragrant. Qiao Bai tasted it while communicating with the stall owner.
Nowadays, Qiao Bai is no longer like when he was in the border village. At that time, he was too lazy to waste time on substandard food. But now, although the mutton skewers taste substandard, Qiao Bai asked the stall owner
How to grill mutton skewers, and how to grill mutton skewers to make them more delicious. Originally, these were things that the stall owner would not talk about to outsiders, but in front of the money, the originally stubborn stall owner soon lost his persistence.
.
In the end, Qiao Bai gave the mutton skewers a four-point score in his mind. After adding his own thoughts, the taste of the mutton skewers might reach a five-point score, but it still cannot be used as a backup. It can only be gained through the subsequent accumulation of experience.
Think of it as a reference object, or an experience that can provide inspiration.
There were three snacks at the roadside stall, and Qiao Bai came to the second stall.
"What's this?"
Qiao Bai looked at the desserts on the stall that seemed to be pressed from many kinds of dried fruits.
"This is 'Eight Fructose Candies'. Would you like some, please?"
"Can."
Qiao Bai nodded and went straight to the back of the stall, where there were tables and benches.
The stall owner with a mustache was stunned. He had never seen this kind of routine without asking the price or the number of customers. This kind of routine made the mustache feel a little at a loss for a moment.
"Guest, don't you ask how much one tael is?"
Mustache secretly gritted his teeth, suddenly feeling that this unusually dressed guest was actually quite annoying. His style made people a bit incapable of doing business.
"No need to ask."
Qiao Bai was thinking about something in his mind and just said casually that he had plenty of money anyway. In order to complete this test, he never asked about the price.
"Young people are always so reckless!"
Mustache secretly gritted his teeth, and then asked Qiao Bai: "How much should I cut?"
"Look at Che."
Qiao Bai was still absent-minded.
Mustache took a breath, and dared to say that he had never heard of the guests looking at him in legends.
There was a stall next to it, and the stall owner was an old man selling fruit. He excitedly colored his mustache and signaled the mustache to cut it quickly.
"Am I going to create a legend today?"
Mustache was excited, and after licking his lips, he gathered enough energy to cut off half of the whole piece of 'Eight Fructose Candies'.
The whole fruit candy is as long and wide as a tombstone, but its thickness is about a foot. When the mustache is cut off, you can imagine how big a piece it is, so that there is no suitable plate to hold it.
When cutting the apple candies, Mustache actually made a lot of noise, because it was not easy to cut the tightly packed apple candies, not to mention it was only half of the whole piece of apple candies. He even jumped up while pressing the cutting knife.
However, the guests remained unmoved by his actions.
Now, the Eight Fructose Candy has been cut into half. Mustache looked at Qiao Bai proudly, wanting to see how Qiao Bai would react to his excess. However, Mustache never thought that Qiao Bai would go even further. He
Still no reaction at all! Mustache felt very embarrassed. He had never done such a big business in his life, but there was no attention at all. What a failure!
"Ahem!"
Mustache coughed dryly, hoping to attract Qiao Bai's attention so that Qiao Bai could see his masterpiece. Unfortunately, Qiao Bai was still immersed in his own inner world.
"Young man, just cry later!"
Mustache sneered, picked up the cutter and cut into pieces. He cut the originally cut fruit candies into small pieces suitable for the mouth, and piled them up on a eucalyptus board.
"I'll let you eat until you're full!"
The mustache sneered again, and pointed his eyes at the old man selling fruit, and the two of them placed a piece of fructose candy on Qiao Bai's table.
Qiao Bai frowned. There were piles of fruit candies on the eucalyptus board. Not to mention that one person couldn't eat that much, even ten people couldn't eat that much. However, Qiao Bai didn't care. He was still very friendly to these street vendors.
of.
Seeing that Qiao Bai had no reaction to the mountain of fruit candies, Mustache was about to explode with anger. He resisted not letting himself explode in advance. He was waiting for Qiao Bai to regret it.
He picked up a piece of fruit candy and put it in his mouth. Qiao Bai spit it out before he finished eating. It was too sweet and he couldn't stand the taste.
Since the food was not tasty, Qiao Bai stood up, dropped a piece of silver and left.
"stop!"
Mustache was stunned. He didn't expect that Qiao Bai would be so generous as to leave the money directly. But it was a pity that this ingot of silver was a lot, but it was not enough to pay for the eucalyptus candies.
"Um?"
Qiao Bai looked back at Mustache.
"Do you know that these eight-fructose candy cost one tael more?" Mustache sneered.
"have no idea."
Qiao Bai shook his head and asked, "Is it expensive?"
“It’s very expensive, very expensive!”
Mustache finally smiled happily, and he finally saw Qiao Bai frowning.
"Since it is secretly made from eight kinds of precious fruits, the price of one tael of these eight-fructose candy will cost you an ingot of silver!"
Qiao Bai's eyes widened following Mustache's words, and Mustache became even more excited.
"I've always been very obedient. The customer asked me to watch him cut it, so I cut half of it. In fact, it's not much, only two hundred and forty-seven pounds! Sixteen liang.
Jin, the customer knows how much money he should give me!"
"You are blackmailing me!"
Qiao Bai yelled filial piety at the serious mustache.
"There is no blackmail. Everything is done according to the customer's requirements. You can pay it off quickly. I'm still waiting for the money to build a house, get a wife, and have babies!"
Following the serious look of the mustache, several more stall owners walked towards this direction, and some even deliberately exposed the knives hanging on their waists while walking.
"Get out!"
Qiao Bai shouted filial piety and kicked the young man in the stomach, making him fly out of Dead Leaf Town like a kite. It didn't matter whether he lived or died.
"You guys get out too!"
With another wave of his hand, those who were putting on pretense for the young man all flew out under Qiao Bai's wave of his hand.
"Go to hell with the fruit candy!"
Qiao Bai couldn't help but explode, and a fire made the mountain of fruit candy burn.
The residents of the town were so frightened that they hurriedly fled. Qiao Bai was walking on the streets of Kuye Town like a ferocious tiger. He was already upset, but there was actually a blind eye-catching fruit candy coming to blackmail people. This was really looking for death.
Stopping, the last food stall owner pushing his cart to run was stopped by Qiao Bai with a finger from the distance.
"What are you selling?" Qiao Bai asked.
"Tu, bastard chicken." The stall owner was so frightened.
"Open one and let me have a taste!" Qiao Bai said.
The stall owner regained his freedom and quickly pulled out a mud ball from the furnace of the cart. After cracking the mud ball open, there were burnt leaves wrapped in it.
chicken.
"Don't be afraid, I only teach evil people."
Qiao Bai threw a silver coin to the stall owner, picked up the local chicken and tasted it.
As Qiao Bai tasted it, his eyes gradually lit up. This country chicken was the first five-cent dish he tasted after accepting the test.
"Teach me how to cook country chicken."
Qiao Bai threw another silver coin at the stall owner.
How could the stall owner dare to refuse? The ingredients for making local chicken were all available in the cart, so he immediately started making it in front of Qiao Bai.
While the stall owner was making the local chicken, Qiao Bai asked what he should ask, and the stall owner said what he should say. Soon a local chicken was processed and buried in the sand under the charcoal fire by the stall owner.
The process of making the local chicken is time-consuming, but Qiao Bai already knows the heat through the stall owner, so he uses fire control techniques to control the heat and speed up the cooking of the local chicken.
Qiao Bai's extraordinary qualities were once again shown. He was still in the late stage of becoming a god. He not only possessed the spirit of his natal true fire, but also possessed the source of his natal true fire. These are two hard conditions for becoming a true immortal chef.
However, Qiao Bai can only use the Fire Control Technique and the Water Control Technique to process food simply. Due to his insufficient understanding of the ingredients and the lack of special guidance, he used the Fire Control Technique and the Water Control Technique in cooking.
It was just something simple. But even so, it provided him with great convenience. It would have taken him nearly half an hour to roast the local chicken, but he only took a cup of tea to finish it.
He took out the chicken, broke the mud seal, and peeled off the leaves from the fat chicken. Qiao Bai pulled off a chicken leg and ate it.
It is fat, tender and salty, and the ingredients placed in the chicken are also very tasty. Moreover, due to the use of water-control techniques in the chicken, the chicken baked by Qiao Bai is more delicious and more flavorful than the one grilled by the stall owner.
More even.
Qiao Bai was not hungry, but he still finished a piece of country chicken and sucked his fingers to savor it! After all, this was the first six-cent dish he participated in cooking after accepting the task!
A score of six points was the qualified standard in Qiao Bai's mind, and it could be used as a real backup, which made him very happy.
Qiao Bai took out a piece of silver again: "Tell me, who in your Kuye Town has the best cooking skills, the one who is not a chef."
Looking at the silver shining in the sun, the stall owner swallowed his saliva, wanting to say something but not daring to say it.
"Don't worry, I won't harm that person, and I won't tell him that it was you who said it." Qiao Bai could see that the stall owner was worried.
"He is the one who taught me how to cook local chicken. He is also the person who I consider to be a better cook than a chef. He can make several special dishes!" said the stall owner.
"What's his name? Where does he live?"
Qiao Bai's heartbeat quickened. He could teach others how to cook a few special dishes, and his cooking skills were better than those of a chef. This made Qiao Bai think that maybe the three dishes he used to complete the test would all come from this place.
on people.
"His name is Yalivi, and he lives in Crescent Village!" the stall owner said.
Yueya Village is a subordinate village of Kuye Town. It is located in the huge desert outside Kuye Town. It is a village built on a desert oasis.
Originally, Qiao Bai was very happy, but when he learned the details from the stall owner, he became a little unhappy. Because the last time the stall owner met Yalivi was twenty years ago, and Yalivi had already
He is an eighty-year-old man.
There are centenarians in the world, but they are still rare. Qiao Bai thinks that Yalivi is probably no longer alive. However, he finally has a clue that makes Qiao Bai heart-beating. Even if Yalivi is really no longer alive, Qiao Bai
You have to take a trip to Crescent Village.
The reason why the stall owner hadn't seen Yalivi for twenty years was because of the long journey and the dangerous environment of the desert. But this was not a problem for Qiao Bai. He just followed the direction pointed by the stall owner and flew less than a mile.
By the time I saw it, I had already seen an oasis in the sky that was roughly shaped like a crescent moon.
It was rare for outsiders to come to Yueya Village, so the villagers were very curious when they saw Qiao Bai entering the village.
Qiao Bai asked a villager and learned that Yalivi had died three years ago.
Yalivi passed away. This result was within Qiao Bai's expectation, so Qiao Bai asked about Yalivi's three sons.
According to what the stall owner said, Yalivi had three sons. The eldest son and the second son should have learned his cooking skills. As for Yalivi's third son, he was a fool and kept giggling all day long.
After questioning the villagers, disappointment appeared on Qiao Bai's face. Yalivi's eldest son and second son had already moved out of Yueya Village in the second year after Yalivi's death.
"If the guest is looking for Yalivi's third son, he is in the village." The villager said enthusiastically.
"Why didn't Old Yalivi's third son move away with his two brothers?" Qiao Bai asked.
"His two brothers both despise him as a fool. Who would be willing to bring a burden like Vic with him?"
The villager shook his head. The Vic he mentioned was the third son of old man Yalivi.
"Fellow, who among you has better cooking skills?" Qiao Bai asked again.
"Cooking skills? Foreigners, this place is very poor. It's good to have enough food. No one wants to spend time on it. Except for Yalivi, who has eaten so much that he is completely impoverished, we are all just trying to keep our stomachs full."
The villagers smiled bitterly.
Yalivi is dead, and his two sons who may have inherited his cooking skills have also moved away. Only his third son is left in Yueya Village, but this third son is a fool, and the villagers do not have excessive requirements for food.
, I wanted to find a second person with good cooking skills, but when I heard such an answer, Qiao Bai really felt that this trip was in vain.
"I'll give this to you to improve your life."
Qiao Bai gave a piece of silver to the villager who kept answering his questions, and the delighted villager thanked him repeatedly.
Qiao Bai planned to leave. He came with high hopes, but in the end he was going to leave disappointed.
Seeing Qiao Bai flying up, the villagers who originally thought he was a foreigner suddenly exclaimed and even knelt down to worship him.
"Great Immortal, Great Immortal!"
The villagers knelt down and shouted. Qiao Bai frowned in the air. Thinking of the ancient dispute, he descended again.
Qiao Bai also heard about Gu Zheng's medical treatment in Qingfeng City. His admiration for Gu Zheng made him decide to do something at this moment.
Since they came to Yaliwei because of the guidance of the stall owner, Yaliwei passed away, and his two sons left their stupid brother and moved away. You don’t need to ask to know what kind of life this stupid Vic usually lives in the village. Qiao
Bai wanted to follow Gu Zheng's example and see if he could help Vic.
"Great Immortal, Great Immortal!"
Seeing Qiao Bai descending again, the villagers cheered even louder.
Qiao Bai took out a handful of broken silver and threw it to the villagers. After the villagers snatched it, he asked the previous villager: "Where is Vic now?"
"I saw him heading into the desert a day ago." The villager pointed a direction to Qiao Bai.
With the direction, Qiao Bai flew over there. He thought he would see Vic soon, but after flying for a while, he saw Vic lying between two sand dunes. This place was so far away
The village is at least forty miles away.
Qiao Bai was a little curious as to what this idiot Vic was doing in the desert alone and running so far.
Vic looked like a dark and thin man, lying on the sand dune with no clothes on, looking forward motionlessly, as if waiting for something.
There was nothing empty in front of Vic. There was a small ball on the ground. The small ball emitted this fishy smell, and he didn't know what it was.
"Vic"
Qiao Bai landed behind Vic. As soon as he spoke, Vic turned around.
"Shh!"
Vic saw that the stranger was not panicked or curious. He put his finger to his mouth to signal Qiao Bai to keep quiet.
A fool's thinking is incomprehensible to ordinary people. Qiao Bai would not be as stupid as a fool and do things according to the fool's guidance.
A light point of immortal power popped up towards Vic. Vic was hit and fainted immediately. Qiao Bai waved his hand to take Vic over and placed his palm on top of his head.
Qiao Bai wanted to imitate Gu Zheng and show others. He wanted to see what caused Vic's stupidity. If he had the ability to solve this problem, he wanted Vic to become a normal person.
Frustration quickly appeared on Qiao Bai's face. This Vic was also a weirdo. Qiao Bai couldn't find out the reason why he became stupid. Qiao Bai couldn't even search his soul because the memory in his mind was completely
A rare lake of slurry, if he wanted to delve deeper into it, he might be dragged into the whirlpool of chaotic memories from which he could not extricate himself.
"Why."
With a sigh, Qiao Bai, who felt it was a waste of time, placed a roast chicken he had cooked before in Vic's arms, and he planned to leave this desert.
Just as Qiao Bai turned around to leave, there was a sound behind him. When he looked back, he saw Vic eating a roast chicken he had left behind.
Qiao Bai frowned. Vic should wake up in a minute, but now it was just a matter of time to turn around, and he was already eating. This made Qiao Bai feel incredible.
