Walking along the street, Qiao Bai soon saw the second street stall. This street stall sold pies. According to the person Qiao Bai asked about in the previous town, the stuffing at this shop was
The cakes were very delicious. If it weren't for his advantage, Qiao Bai might not have come to the remote Huangsha Town.
Qiao Bai has already tasted the aroma of the pie, but in terms of aroma, this is a passable snack. However, whether he can use it to complete the test, Qiao Bai will not know until he tastes it.
"Guests from afar, would you like some pie?"
From the way Qiao Bai was dressed, the stall owner could tell that Qiao Bai was not from any nearby village.
"Have a pie."
Although there was a shadow in his heart due to the fruit candy, Qiao Bai was still not used to asking the price when buying things. Anyway, if someone dared to rip off a customer, he would let the person who rip off the customer know what it feels like to be ripped off.
"Okay!"
The stall owner quickly took out a pie from the oven and gave it to Qiao Bai.
Crispy on the outside and full of meaty aroma on the inside, Qiao Bai gave the pie a five-point rating in his heart.
"Tell me how to make the pie, and then answer my other question, and it's yours."
Qiao Bai placed a piece of silver on the stall owner's stall.
The stall owner's eyes lit up, but he did not go to take the money. He asked cautiously: "Guest from afar, if you asked me how to make the pie, do you want to sell the pie here?"
"You are thinking too much! How long will it take to earn this ingot of silver selling pies here?" Qiao Bai said with a smile.
"Too!"
The stall owner happily accepted the money and told Qiao Bai how to make the pie.
After listening to what the stall owner said, Qiao Bai felt that with his current weak knowledge in food, he would not be able to make a six-point pie without changing the grade of ingredients. Not even one pie could reach six points.
Naturally, the staple food cannot be used as a backup for the ancient battle test. It can only be used to give Qiao Bai more experience in the way of eating.
"Guest from afar, what is the question you want to ask?"
Wanting to make the money in his hands his own as soon as possible, the stall owner took the initiative to ask Qiao Bai.
"Who has the best cooking skills in Huangsha Town? Apart from the chef! In other words, do you know who can make very delicious specialty dishes?" Qiao Bai asked.
The stall owner shook his head: "Except for the chef, there really is no such person as the customer asked."
"Think about it carefully, is it really true?" Qiao Bai asked again.
The stall owner still shook his head: "My pie is already a famous delicacy in Huangsha Town. I can also see that the customers are not very satisfied with the taste of my pie. So if I can't make the pie to satisfy the customers,
If you are satisfied, no one in Huangsha Town can make delicious food that satisfies the guests."
After hearing what the stall owner said, Qiao Bai didn't say anything more and immediately jumped into the air after leaving Huangsha Town.
Today is the tenth day for Qiao Bai to accept the ancient battle mission. Qiao Bai did not find his favorite delicious food in Huangsha City, so he decided on a few towns as a direction. He hoped that he would be able to gain something next time! After all, this time
The test was of great significance to him. There were only twenty days left before the end of the mission. During these twenty days, in addition to looking for delicious food, he also had to leave time to return.
The town that Qiao Bai is going to next is called Late Spring Town. This town is relatively rich in products. As long as you fly over the desert at your feet, you have entered the scope of Late Spring Town.
The sunset scenery in the desert is spectacular, and the original undulating sand dune landscape has also undergone some changes. Qiao Bai saw some oases and some lakes in the desert.
It was already dinner time, and smoke was already rising from some oases. Just when Qiao Bai was hesitant to go down and try his luck, his eyes were attracted by a small boat on the lake.
There was also smoke rising from the boat, and an old man seemed to be stewing something on the bow.
Qiao Baifei's was relatively high, and it was impossible for him to smell the fragrance, but an indescribable feeling made him want to go to that boat to have a look. He felt that he might have unexpected gains on that boat.
As the distance between the boat and the boat got closer, Qiao Bai's eyes also lit up. He smelled a scent, which was the scent of stewed fish. The scent was rich and charming, the kind of scent that delicious food should have!
Seeing Qiao Bai falling from the sky, the old man knelt down on the boat with a plop, and while calling the Great Immortal in his mouth, tears burst down his face.
Qiao Bai frowned, and the old man was a little excited, giving him the feeling that he was finally waiting for him.
"Are you waiting for me?"
Qiao Bai was a little unsure.
"Yes! Xiaomin is indeed waiting for the Immortal. Please ask the Immortal to save our family!" The old man kowtowed to Qiao Bai.
"Tell me first, what is going on!"
Qiao Bai used his immortal power to lift the old man up, and the old man began to tell his story.
The old man is not from the local area. He came here as a wife. His wife has been ill for many years and has been bedridden.
The old man had a dream the night before yesterday. In the dream, someone told him that if he cooked the fish in the lake for dinner tonight, an immortal would come to help him.
The old man didn't believe this at first. Although he was sensible, it was just a dream after all. However, the old man's wife actually had the same dream, which forced the old man to take risks.
The reason why we have to take the risk is because the golden fish is the totem of the local people and the sacred fish in the lake. Let alone eating it, even if it is caught occasionally while fishing, it must be quickly put back into the lake and kowtow to apologize.
OK.
The fish is not only found here, it is also found in the old man's hometown. In the old man's hometown, the fish is a rare delicacy, and the old man's cooking of the fish is even better.
The fish needs to be stewed for a long time, and the longer it is stewed, the more fragrant it will be. Half an hour ago, the old man had stewed the fish, but he was discovered by a local fisherman. The fisherman has now gone back to inform the villagers. It is estimated that the villagers
People will arrive soon.
Before meeting Qiao Bai, the old man had been going through a lot of suffering. He even scolded himself for being stupid for believing in a strange dream and thus violating the taboo of the villagers! If he was burned to death by the villagers for this, his guilt would
People probably won't live long, after all, they have no children.
After listening to what the old man said, Qiao Bai also sighed in his heart. He didn't expect that he would encounter such a strange thing. This was indeed a strange thing. It was just that the old man and his wife had the same dream, but he
Flying at a high altitude actually produced that special feeling, so that landing on this fishing boat was exactly what the old man said in his dream.
"Please help the immortal!"
When the old man saw that Qiao Bai had no reaction after hearing what he said, he became even more anxious.
"Don't worry, you had such a dream, and I happened to be attracted by what you cooked. This means that we have a certain fate, and I will not ignore your affairs." Qiao Bai said.
"Thank you, immortal, thank you, immortal!"
After hearing what Qiao Bai said, the old man quickly thanked him.
"Is this fish ready to be stewed now?"
Qiao Bai looked at the pot where the fish was stewed. There was no lid on the top of the pot. In the pot of white, milky fish soup, the pale yellow fish meat looked very firm, and the fragrance it exuded was very appetizing. If you look at the smell alone,
Speaking of it, compared to the 'charcoal grilled black dragon scorpion' that Qiao Bai is already very satisfied with, the aroma of the stewed fish is even better.
"The fish isn't stewed yet, it still needs a cup of tea."
While the old man was talking, he added more firewood to the stove.
"Since the fish will take a while to be stewed, I also want to taste the taste of the fish you stewed. You can take advantage of this time to tell me how to make the fish stew. We will also wait.
Those villagers who came here to cause trouble." Qiao Bai said.
The old man nodded, and then told Qiao Bai how to stew the fish.
The seemingly simple fish stew is very particular from the handling of the fish to the selection of spices. This made Qiao Bai, who had not tasted the fish yet, feel that the fish stew was the second dish he served to Gu Zheng.
The fish has been stewed, and Qiao Bai started to taste it. The delicious taste made him couldn't help but nod. In his opinion, this is a delicacy that can reach nine points, and it is rare in the world!
After finishing a piece of stewed fish, several boats on the lake also came closer. As the old man said before, the people in the village came to settle a score with the old man! Before anyone arrived, there were already a series of voices criticizing the old man for his treason.
Rings.
Qiyu is the sacred fish in the hearts of the villagers. If the old man was seen killing Qiyu, under normal circumstances, he would have to be burned to death by the villagers to vent his anger.
Qiao Bai promised to help the old man. He wanted to take the old man and his wife out of this place, which would save a lot of trouble. Otherwise, if he stepped forward to suppress these people, after he left, who knows if they would have the courage to do anything.
Old couple.
However, the old man told Qiao Bai that her wife would not agree to leave the village. They were already very old and were not used to living outside and did not know how to survive. In this case, Qiao Bai could only start from other aspects.
"Looking at the treasure book, you actually dare to eat the holy fish. You are really courageous!"
"Don't you know that if you eat holy fish, you will be burned to death? What will your wife do if you die? Why are you so old and so stupid?"
The old man's boat had been sandwiched between two boats, and the two men also boarded his boat respectively, turning a blind eye to Qiao Bai on the boat.
"The Qiyu is the sacred fish of our Greenleaf Village. How could I prey on the Qiyu? It's all Dakuta who got it wrong!"
The old man looked innocent. The Daku he mentioned was the fisherman who discovered him cooking the fish.
"How could I be wrong? I smelled something very fragrant. When I got on your boat, I saw that what was cooking in your pot was the golden fish!"
While Daku was talking, he had already boarded the boat, and he also ignored Qiao Bai beside him.
"I told you no at that time. I asked you to take a closer look but you didn't listen. Can you smell the fragrance and see if it's what you smelled at that time?" the old man said.
"Yes, that's the scent!" Daku affirmed.
"Open it and you will know!"
One of the first two men to board the boat opened the lid of the pot as he spoke.
"Huh? This is not a fish, this is an oolong!" The man who opened the lid of the pot frowned.
There are many kinds of fish in the lake, among which two kinds of fish are quite special. One is the sacred fish in the hearts of the villagers, the golden fish, and the other is the poisonous oolong fish. Because these two kinds of fish are quite special, the villagers have seen them before.
They have never eaten them, and naturally they don't understand their fragrance. In fact, the fish stewed in the pot at this time is still the fish, but Qiao Bai asked everyone on the boat to have an illusion.
When he saw that what was stewed in the pot was actually oolong fish, Daku couldn't help but murmured to himself: "Why is it oolong fish? I clearly saw that what was stewed was oyster fish!"
"Everyone gets it wrong sometimes! It doesn't matter if you see it wrong. You have to apologize to everyone if you let others follow your mistake. Otherwise, you can explain to everyone why you think Oolong fish is Qi.
The fish thing! Could it be said that you have stewed the fish?"
The old man followed what Qiao Bai said and beat Daku down. The other two men on the boat also frowned and looked at Daku. They needed Daku to give an explanation. They couldn't let the big guy just follow him around.
I almost wronged someone.
"I'm really sorry to everyone. I must have been drunk at that time, and I had never smelled the smell of stewed oolong fish, so I misread it. I apologize to everyone here, but I have never stewed octopus fish.
How could I possibly stew the fish!" Daku suddenly panicked and hurriedly explained.
"I also believe that you have never stewed fish, but you should be careful what you say when you drink in the future!" the old man said displeased.
"Definitely!"
Seeing that the old man did not insist on this matter, Daku seemed to be in a hurry.
"Okay, since it's a misunderstanding, let's all go back! But why are you stewing the oolong fish here? Could it be that you feel that life is too hard to live, and you want to commit suicide by eating the oolong fish? If you
If you commit suicide after eating an oolong fish, what will your wife do?" asked another person who had boarded the boat before.
"After all these years, how could I be so short-sighted? I stewed oolong fish here because I had a dream last night. In the dream, the lake god told me a kind of oolong fish stew to cure my wife's paralysis.
In addition, the Lake God also gave me some money, so that I can live a better life in the future!" the old man said happily.
The Lake God is a revered god in the hearts of the villagers. No one dares to make fun of him on weekdays. It is said that the Qiyu is the Lake God’s fish, but the old man who is not a local does not believe in the existence of the Lake God, let alone that the Qiyu is the Lake God’s fish.
Qiao Bai also told him that there is no so-called god in this lake. Therefore, the old man blamed some things on the lake god, so as to save himself from having to worry about it again when he used the money Qiao Bai left him.
Being asked various questions.
The old man mentioned the lake god, and he was very serious about it. Even though the people on the boat didn't believe it, they didn't dare to question it. They were afraid of the worst.
"Okay, you all can go! Won't you know soon whether I lied or not?"
Listening to what the old man said made sense, the three men on the boat also left and told the rest of the people about the dream entrusted by the lake god.
After the villagers left, Qiao Bai easily fished out a fish from the lake and cooked it according to the method the old man said. A pot of very delicious stewed fish would be ready in a while.
The delicious stewed fish is also a rare delicacy in the world. Qiao Bai feels that after adding some of his ideas, the stewed fish will definitely be a dish with more than nine points.
Taking out a jade bottle-shaped fairy weapon, Qiao Bai put dozens of fresh golden fish into it. Although Gu Zheng's test only required one golden fish to cook, after all, Qiao Bai had to give it to Gu Zheng before giving it to him.
You still need to try to incorporate your own ideas. This may be achieved in one or two times, or it may take many times. Therefore, it is better to prepare more regional ingredients, just like the black dragon scorpion and Qiao before.
Bai prepared more than two hundred of them.
Qiao Bai didn't go back to the village with the old man. He knew where the old man's house was and went there first.
Because the old man told the villagers that he was entrusted with a dream by the lake god, when he returned to the village, a large group of people must have followed him asking questions, and even wanted to see what his wife did after taking the stewed oolong fish.
Look.
The time difference will make Qiao Bai leave after curing the old man's wife. Before leaving, he will give the old man's wife a few words. When the old man comes back with the stewed oolong that has been detoxified by Qiao Bai, she will eat it.
He could go to the ground, and a perfect miracle was revealed in front of the villagers. Even if the old man used the money left by Qiao Bai in the future, he would not cause any trouble. In this remote country, who would dare to attack the Lake God Juan Gu?
What about people’s thoughts?
Seeing someone suddenly appear in front of the bed, the old man's paralyzed wife was naturally very panicked, but when she learned that Qiao Bai was the god in their dreams, she burst into tears with excitement.
Paralysis is a serious illness for mortals, but it is simply a minor illness for immortal cultivators. Qiao Bai gave the old man's wife a healing pill, and used immortal power to help her relax her muscles and activate her muscles. After correcting her muscles and bones, the old man's wife
I was able to get out of bed immediately.
According to Qiao Bai's instructions, the old man's wife was still lying on the bed pretending to be paralyzed. When the old man came back with the stewed oolong fish, and after eating the stewed oolong fish, she said that the stewed oolong fish had a miraculous effect.
The old man has returned to the village with the stewed oolong fish. Almost the whole village is waiting for him. The news that the lake god entrusted to the old man in his dream was like a thunder in the village. The villagers also wanted to see it.
Will the Lake God show up? Is the doubt in my heart that I want to say but dare not say true?
Oolong fish is indeed poisonous. For the villagers, whether it was the lake god who entrusted it to the old man in a dream or there is a problem with this matter. Everything will be clear when the old man's wife eats the stewed oolong fish.
If the old man's wife was poisoned by the black fish, it means there is a problem in this matter. If the old man's wife was not poisoned by the black fish, but recovered from it, then it would be a miracle.
.
The old man's house was already crowded with people, even when his wife arrived, it was not that lively.
The stewed oolong fish had been eaten by the old man's wife. The old man's wife, who had been paralyzed for many years, suddenly appeared in front of the villagers, walking as fast as he could. This made the villagers call him a god.
The villagers were happy that the old man's family had been favored by the Lake God. Qiao Bai, who had already flown far away, was also very happy. Today is the tenth day of the registered disciple test, and two of the three dishes have already been prepared.
Now that he has found the place, and he also has some spare dishes that can serve as a third course when he can't find any delicious food, it can be said that he can go back to pay tribute to Guzheng now.
In the three-course test, two of them are considered top-notch, and even if one is inferior, it can pass according to Qiao Bai's estimation. However, Qiao Bai is a person who pursues perfection, and he hopes to find another one in the next time.
Delicious, this delicious dish only needs 7 points. If it is 8 points, it is a surprise. If you also want the rare delicacies such as 'charcoal grilled black dragon scorpion' and 'braised fish', then it is really
