"You're a nice person, you actually gave me something to eat."
Vic looked at Qiao Bai, showing no fear or vigilance at all. He even said this to Qiao Bai.
Qiao Bai was very surprised. Vic's reaction was completely different from the fool in his impression. His eyes were clear and he spoke eloquently.
"Aren't you a fool?"
Qiao Bai's heart moved. If this Vic is not a fool, then has he learned some of Yaliwei's cooking skills?
"Idiot? What is a fool?"
Vic looked at Qiao Bai with endless innocence in his eyes.
Qiao Bai's heart dropped. Normal people wouldn't ask questions like this, right?
Just when Qiao Bai refused to give up and wanted to ask more questions, Vic actually chewed chicken bones. Chicken bones were all he wanted, and he even ate the chewed chicken bones.
"I thought you were not a fool, but now it seems you are still a fool."
Qiao Bai smiled bitterly and turned to leave.
"Don't leave, just play with me!" Vic's voice was innocent.
"No time!" Qiao Bai gritted his teeth and flew up.
"Idiot, don't leave! If you play with me, I'll give you something delicious to eat!"
Vic's words made Qiao Bai almost stumble in the air. What kind of good food would a fool give him? In a very bad mood, he felt that he was stupid and went to the desert to find a fool. Instead, he was shouted at by a fool.
Fool'.
"Shut up, you!"
Qiao Bai left a word and didn't look back.
"Your chicken is boring and not delicious! I want to cook something for you, but you still don't like it. I wouldn't cook it for ordinary people!"
Vic's muttering to himself on the ground made Qiao Bai stop. A roast chicken that he rated five out of five, a fool actually thought it was not delicious and wanted to make something better for him to eat!
"He used 'do'. Would a fool know how to 'do'?"
Qiao Bai was shocked and returned to the ground again. He felt that this Vic might be a fool with special skills. Otherwise, he would have left the village and come to the desert and died here? And when the villagers said that he came to the desert, his expression was still the same.
It's normal, just like saying a child goes to school.
"Can you make delicious food?" Qiao Bai asked suspiciously.
"Of course, my dad is the best cook in the whole Crescent Village!" Vic said proudly.
Qiao Bai's heartbeat accelerated, and he felt that things might have turned around.
"Tell me quickly, what delicious food can you make?" Qiao Bai said.
"I can make 'charcoal grilled black dragon scorpion'."
Vic was still so proud, and Qiao Bai's heartbeat accelerated rapidly. Although he didn't know what Black Dragon Scorpion was, what Vic said was clearly the name of a dish. Moreover, at first Vic was lying on the ground, staring at the man with the
The fishy-smelling ball! Now it seems that the ball should be bait. He should be trying to catch something called a black dragon scorpion. This may be the purpose of his coming to the desert.
"Okay, let me try the 'Charcoal Grilled Black Dragon Scorpion' you made."
Qiao Bai gritted his teeth. He had decided to try the poison and prayed in his heart that he would not be fooled by a fool today.
"Why should I do it for you?" Vic gave Qiao Bai a roll of his eyes.
"Why did you change your mind?" Qiao Bai asked.
"Because you look down on me!" Vic snorted.
"Then what do you need to do for me?" Qiao Bai asked again.
"play with me!"
"playing what?"
"play house!"
"roll!"
Qiao Bai scolded Vic, and a ferocious smile appeared on his face: "Vic, I don't care if you are really stupid or what, I am not in a good mood right now. If you continue to be ignorant, I have many ways to deal with you.
!”
"You want to hit me?"
Not only was Vic not afraid, but his expression was arrogant.
"Don't force me!" Qiao Bai gritted his teeth.
"Hit me!"
Vic turned his face towards Qiao Bai.
"you,"
Qiao Bai was speechless and gritted his teeth.
"Ha ha!"
Vic suddenly laughed and did somersaults like a monkey.
"It's so fun. You're so fun. I haven't had so much fun in a long time."
Vic, who had been having fun for a while, looked at Qiao Bai and said seriously: "You gave me something to eat and made me happy. Now I have decided to make you a 'charcoal grilled black dragon scorpion'."
"real?"
Qiao Bai was suspicious. He felt that he couldn't keep up with this fool.
"Of course it's true. I, Vic, always mean what I say!"
Vic slapped his chest, looking like he would never break his promise.
"I believe you, you fool, you are so bad!"
Thinking of Vic's fickleness, Qiao Bai cursed in his heart.
"However, catching the black dragon scorpion is not easy, and you interrupted me again. I think you can go to heaven, and you must be very capable. You can catch the black dragon scorpion for me!" Vic said.
"Okay, where is the Black Dragon Scorpion?" Qiao Bai asked.
"There is a nest of black dragon scorpions just one foot underground in front of the little ball. When you dig deeper, there is enough for us to eat for a day!" Vic said.
"good!"
Qiao Bai walked towards the ball, and Vic's voice sounded behind him again: "You need to get some more firewood later. Without firewood, there will be no carbon. Without carbon, you can't make 'charcoal grilled black dragon scorpion'."
"good!"
Qiao Bai gritted his teeth, never thinking that one day he would be commanded by a fool.
Qiao Bai waved his hand, and a whirlwind was born. The yellow color where the black dragon scorpions were was immediately swept away. A nest of three hundred black dragon scorpions appeared in the sand cave. They were frightened and wanted to escape.
But he was controlled by Qiao Bai's magical power.
"Do you want to kill him?" Qiao Bai asked.
"Don't kill them. They won't taste delicious if they are killed. I'm going to catch ten of them and let the two of us eat them."
After hearing what Vic said, Qiao Bai released ten black dragon scorpions and sealed the rest in the sand cave with his magical power.
Each black dragon scorpion is about the length of a palm, and its body is as black as a gemstone. It has dragon-like patterns on its back, and it looks like it is highly venomous.
Worried that something might happen to Vic, Qiao Bai didn't immediately go get the materials. He wanted to see how Vic would capture the black dragon scorpion.
I saw that Vic just stretched out his hand to grab the black dragon scorpion, letting the black dragon scorpion's tail needle prick his skin, and laughed like he was being tickled.
The captured black dragon scorpion was thrown into the cloth bag that Vic carried with him, and then he began to urge Qiao Bai: "Don't be stunned, hurry up and gather materials for the fire, I will start roasting soon."
Being urged by a fool, Qiao Bai was helpless. He immediately went to look for those shrubs in the desert, and soon brought back a large bundle.
When Qiao Bai came back, he found that the Black Dragon Scorpion had been dealt with by Vic. They were lying on the sand and slowly moving their joints as if they were drunk.
"You know how to make a carbon fire, right? If you know, you can do it. It will be faster." Vic said.
Qiao Bai didn't say anything, and immediately used the fire control technique to make some bushes burn, and quickly made the charcoal fire.
While Qiao Bai was making charcoal fire, Vic had already used some sharp shrubs to string together ten black dragon scorpions.
The 'charcoal grilled black dragon scorpion' started. Vic was seen holding a bush with black dragon scorpions skewered and grilling the black dragon scorpions on the charcoal fire. His movements were very skillful, and it looked like he was grilling mutton skewers.
After baking for a while, Vic actually took out a box from the cloth bag. When he opened the box, there was a paste that was as colored as mutton fat.
Vic brushed the suet-like paste on the black dragon scorpion, and a smell that could not be described as good or bad wafted up.
Qiao Bai didn't ask Vic anything, he just frowned and looked at Vic's barbecue. If this 'charcoal grilled black dragon scorpion' was really delicious, then it wouldn't be too late to ask him anything.
After a while, the black dragon scorpion, which was originally like a black gem, began to change color, and an indescribable fragrance made Qiao Bai's nose flap.
Qiao Bai was already excited. The 'charcoal grilled black dragon scorpion' was very fragrant. If we just talked about the aroma, it had already reached the eighth level in his heart!
"It actually smells so good! What a surprise, what a surprise! It seems that the taste of this 'charcoal grilled black dragon scorpion' is just the same!"
Qiao Bai cheered in his heart, he felt that he had found a dish that could be used to complete the test.
"Peng Peng Peng Peng!"
Slight popping sounds continued one after another, and all the black dragon scorpions roasted by Vic burst, revealing the delicate white and tender scorpion meat under the shell.
“It’s time to eat!”
Vic cheered and came to Qiao Bai with ten skewers of 'Charcoal Grilled Black Dragon Scorpions', and handed one to Qiao Bai with a generous look.
Qiao Bai has peeled shrimps, but not scorpions. Just when he was about to peel the black dragon scorpion, Vic stopped him: "Eat it like this, this is the correct way to eat it!"
In the meantime, Vic bit directly at the black appearance of the black dragon scorpion like eating a kebab, and a "crack-crack-crack" sound came out of his mouth. He looked intoxicated!
Qiao Bai frowned. He had never eaten such dirty food, but since Vic said so, maybe there is something mysterious about the black dragon scorpion's shell.
Qiao Bai carefully bit one of the black dragon scorpion's pincers, and a crisp sound also came out of his mouth.
As he continued chewing, Qiao Bai's eyes widened a little. The scorpion meat was very delicious and had a unique aroma. The scorpion shell was really good. It tasted very crispy and had a slightly spicy taste.
, which also makes the taste of scorpion meat change nicely, and it can be regarded as a good seasoning.
"That's it, 'Charcoal Grilled Black Dragon Scorpion'!"
Qiao Bai cheered in his heart. He gave the 'Charcoal Grilled Black Dragon Scorpion' seven points. This was the dish he had given the highest score so far. He had no doubt that after asking Vic about the details of this dish, he would
Being able to make a 'charcoal-grilled black dragon scorpion' that can score eight points, or even more than eight points. After all, Vic is not very particular about cooking 'charcoal-grilled black dragon scorpion', which affects his score for this dish.
"How is it? Isn't it delicious?"
Vic had already devoured three 'charcoal-roasted black dragon scorpions' in a very short period of time. He looked at Qiao Bai, who could not eat more than just one scorpion claw, with some disgust in his eyes.
"If you don't want to eat it, give it back to me!" Vic said angrily.
"Who says it's not delicious? It's so delicious that I was shocked!"
What Qiao Bai said was very contrary to his will. He would ask Vic about it later. Knowing that Vic would be angry if he said it was not delicious, he would really be a fool if he told the truth. After all,
Vic is a strange guy. The methods that are useful for dealing with ordinary people may not be effective against him. What's more, he has brought Qiao Bai a dish that can compete with him. If Qiao Bai uses special methods to deal with him, Qiao Bai himself will also
Look down on yourself.
Like Vic, Qiao Bai devoured a 'charcoal-roasted black dragon scorpion'. Seeing how fast he ate, Vic ate even faster, so that as soon as he finished one of his, Vic was already lying on the bed.
Burping happily.
"Vic, I want to know how the 'charcoal grilled black dragon scorpion' is made." Qiao Bai said.
"Didn't you see how it was done?" Vic chuckled.
"I know you know what I mean!"
Qiao Bai felt that today was really ridiculous that he would talk to a fool like this one day.
"I don't understand." Vic quickly shook his head.
"Just when I went to collect firewood, how did you deal with the black dragon scorpion? Where are the things you used to deal with the black dragon scorpion? If I guessed correctly, the black dragon scorpion should have been soaked in wine, right? This wine
It’s not ordinary wine, it should be a secret wine. Also, the oil you applied to the Black Dragon Scorpion is not simple, so what is it?”
While Qiao Bai was telling the story, Vic's face changed color. He wanted to escape, but Qiao Bai restrained his body.
"Let me go, let me go!"
Vic shouted, and now he had the kind of crazy struggle and expression that a fool should have.
"Vic, I am a good person, not a bad person."
Qiao Bai sighed, and then said: "I don't want to trap you. I just want you to listen to what I say. For some reasons, I have to learn the 'charcoal grilled black dragon scorpion' you make. If you
Leave the method to me, and I will thank you for it and ensure that you have no worries about food and clothing throughout your life!"
Vic gradually became quiet as Qiao Bai spoke. He looked at Qiao Bai for a long time like a normal person, and then he said, "Are you going to ensure that I have enough food and clothing for the rest of my life?"
"That's right, no need to doubt my strength!"
Qiao Bai didn't lie. He wanted to ensure that a mortal would have enough food and clothing for the rest of his life. This was too easy.
"Won't you abandon me like my two brothers?" Vic looked at Qiao Bai with his neck tilted.
"Of course not. However, after you gave me the method of cooking 'charcoal grilled black dragon scorpion', you have to wait for me in Yueya Village for more than a month. I have handed over the errands that need to be handed over and will come back to Yueya Village to pick you up.
." Qiao Bai said.
"I can give you the method of 'charcoal grilled black dragon scorpion', but there is a condition!" Vic said.
"Say." Qiao Bai said.
"My father, I told you that if you want to learn my family's cooking skills, you have to become a master of my family, and you have to erect a statue to worship it. I will tell you the method of 'charcoal grilled black dragon scorpion', then I will be your master. If you want
There is a statue here to worship me!"
Vic was serious, while Qiao Bai couldn't help laughing: "Don't even think about being my master. It's impossible. As for enshrining statues, you may have misremembered your father's words.
, what he is talking about should be that after you die, the people who have learned your cooking skills will set up a plaque to worship you! Except for ghosts and gods who have statues, ordinary mortals cannot bear the incense and worship even if they have statues. They cannot afford it.
of!"
As Qiao Bai finished speaking, his heart suddenly moved, and he thought of the ancient dispute.
"Yes, my father is talking about setting up a memorial tablet!" Vic said seriously.
"Impossible, I have a lot of magical powers, as you have seen. I am an immortal and cannot be like you mortals. You can just use your cooking skills in exchange for food and clothing." Qiao Bai said.
"Then where are you going to provide me with food and clothing?" Vic thought for a while and asked.
"Not here, it's too deserted here. I'll take you to the outside world, which is more prosperous." Qiao Bai said.
"The outside world?"
Vic's eyes lit up: "Okay, I promise you, we are committed!"
"It's a deal!" Qiao Bai said solemnly.
After releasing Vic's restraint, Vic immediately ran to the sand beside him and started digging with his hands.
A wine jar was dug out of the sand by Vic. Vic stroked the wine jar and said: "If you want to make the 'Charcoal Grilled Black Dragon Scorpion' delicious, the secret is not only the wine in this wine jar, but also the wine I used before.
anointed with oil.”
Vic told Qiao Bai all about the ingredients of the cooking wine in the wine jar, the making of the ointment, and the treatment of the black dragon scorpion.
After listening to what Vic said, Qiao Bai felt that there was room for improvement in both cooking wine and ointment based on his talent. But now that he had no materials, he could only prepare some by himself later.
Using ready-made materials, Qiao Bai also made ten 'charcoal grilled black dragon scorpions'. Vic was shocked when he ate them. Although he didn't want to admit it, he had to admit that what Qiao Bai made was more delicious than what he made.
Qiao Bai was very happy. This was only the first time he made it, and it had already reached the eighth level in his mind. If he could improve the areas that needed improvement, Qiao Bai felt that this 'charcoal grilled black dragon scorpion' should be able to reach his level.
Nine points in my heart.
For a dish that is considered a nine-point dish, Qiao Bai thinks it will have no problem getting Gu Zheng's approval.
In a good mood, Qiao Bai took Vic back to Crescent Village and found the village chief. He left a sum of money and told the crescent to take good care of Vic in the next more than a month.
Naturally, the village chief of Crescent Moon Village did not dare to neglect the instructions from the immortal. Qiao Bai, who left with peace of mind, flew towards his next stop.
On the tenth day when the named disciple test began, Qiao Bai appeared in Huangsha Town in Qiuse City.
After acquiring the cooking skills of 'charcoal grilled black dragon scorpion', Qiao Bai has visited another town and three villages, but the second dish that can be used to complete the task is still no ideal goal.
Huangsha Town is also a small town on the edge of the desert. It is almost as prosperous as Kuye Town, and its food culture is also very similar.
As usual, Qiao Bai would first look at the snacks on the street, and then find someone to ask who has the best cooking skills among the non-chefs in this town.
The streets in Huangsha Town are not long, but compared to Kuye Town, they appear shabbier. There is also an inn, but no restaurant. However, there are three restaurants in Kuye Town, but there is only one here.
There seemed to be fewer pedestrians on the street, and there were only two food stalls, one on the street and one at the end of the street.
"Outside guests, would you like to try these fruit candies? This is a specialty of our Huangsha Town!"
Seeing that Qiao Bai was well-dressed, the first snack vendor on the street immediately approached him to solicit business.
"Eight Fructose Candies!"
Qiao Bai secretly gritted his teeth and wished he could smash the stall selling fruit candies.
In the previous town, Qiao Bai had inquired about Huangsha Town and knew that there were several restaurants in the town and several food stalls on the street. However, the food stalls were not like restaurants.
Big change! If he had known earlier that the Eight-Fruit Candy that was supposed to be at the end of the street had actually found its way onto the street, Qiao Bai would have entered Huangsha Town from another gate in Huangsha Town to avoid the unsightly Eight-Fruit Candy.
After all, when he was in the last town, the person Qiao Bai inquired about had warned him not to talk to the baguette seller, otherwise what he sold would not be baguette candies, but brown candies.
With lessons learned from past mistakes and warnings from others, Qiao Bai would naturally not talk to the vendor selling fruit candies. However, when the vendor refused to give up and wanted to get closer to Qiao Bai, Qiao Bai's look in his eyes made people return to the stall in confusion.
On the way, he overturned the stall and smashed the hard fruit candy.
