The main ingredients, salt and water, are the same as those used in Gu Zheng. As for the items that are more abundant than those in Gu Zheng, they are: ordinary pheasant produced in Shu Ruins, pork and pork bones from small fragrant pigs,
There are also some ginger, green onions, wolfberries and red dates.
The bones and meat of pheasants and small fragrant pigs were used by Gu Zheng Bai Shi Chui to make soup. As for ginger and green onions, Gu Zheng sighed secretly when he saw them.
As for the quality of ingredients, most people can only rely on experience to judge. It is impossible for Gu Zheng to have the extremely accurate tool spirit to judge the grade of ingredients. The ginger and green onions used in stone cooking are of inferior grade, and the grade of the other is second-grade.
It's inferior!
When the main ingredients are ordinary, the auxiliary ingredients such as green onion and ginger are of second-grade quality. As long as they are handled properly, they will not only not lower the taste of the food, but also mask and enhance the flavor.
But if the grade of the ingredients is ordinary, and the auxiliary ingredients such as onion and ginger are of low grade, this will have some counter-effects, and it is better not to use it.
As for the grades of wolfberry and red dates, one is inferior and the other is ordinary. Putting these two things in the soup is regarded as the two commonly used medicinal materials for making soup in the world. They play the role of a dietary supplement. This is not the case.
In the small circle of ordinary people, they can really be released or not.
The method of stone cooking is very traditional. First, use pheasant, small fragrant pork, pork bones, ginger slices, red dates, and wolfberries to make the soup. Then, add various main ingredients at intervals and stew them in the broth in the clay pot.
With.
Holding the hot clay pot with both hands, the stone pot began to cook with internal energy. Then, he added salt and green onions at the right time.
Gu Zheng's processing of the ingredients took a longer time. He roasted the eight types of mushrooms that should be roasted, steamed those that should be steamed, marinated those that should be marinated, and blanched those that should be blanched.
After finishing the processing of the ingredients, Gu Zheng put the bacteria into the clay pot when the water temperature was suitable. He also put them in in order and added salt at the right time. During this process, Gu Zheng kept
Watching the fire carefully, sniffing from time to time and savoring the fragrance in the clay pot, this is used to make judgments and operate, to make up for the shortcomings of not using magic.
Gu Zheng paid attention to the aroma in the clay pot, and his nostrils were inevitably filled with the aroma of the stone pot's mushroom soup.
Shi Chui's 'fungus soup' has been prepared and has entered the heat preservation stage. However, he did not disturb it and just watched Gu Zheng quietly.
Gu Zheng's 'fungus soup' was not ready yet, so he relied on Tie Xian Jue from time to time to scoop out the trace substances in the soup that could affect the taste.
When using Xianjutsu before, it was very simple to remove trace substances. Gu Zheng could use the Water Control Technique to sink these things to the bottom of the pot, and finally eliminate the soup at the bottom of the pot. Or use the Water Control Technique to let the
They are attached to the soup surface, and then Gu Zheng scoops them out. Naturally, such an operation does not require frequent use of a spoon like Gu Zheng does now.
The aroma wafts out from the ancient clay pot, which is different from the aroma of "mushroom soup" made in stone pots, making everyone in the kitchen flap their nostrils.
"Master Gu, why did you serve soup frequently just now? There is no foam in the soup!"
"Master Gu, why don't you use your inner energy?"
Seeing that Gu Zheng's 'fungus soup' had been made, Shi Chui and Chen San immediately started asking.
"Frequently serving soup is to make the soup taste more delicious. Not using internal energy is because I want to challenge myself!"
When Gu Zheng answered his question, he put the fungus soup made by the two together.
"Master Gu, now that both soups have been prepared, who among the people in this room will be the judge?" Shi Chui asked.
"For the sake of fairness, what do you think about not letting people in the room be the referee?" Gu Zheng asked rhetorically.
"Okay, there are disciples outside who are responsible for serving dishes today. They usually don't come to the kitchen. They are temporarily dispatched. How about we call three people in and win two out of three games?" Shi Cui said.
"Okay, that's exactly what I meant!"
After Gu Zheng responded, he and Shi Chui came outside the kitchen and called three Shushan disciples on standby to come in.
"Try the fungus soup here. Which one is more delicious?"
Shi Chui gave the fungus soup that they had filled to the three disciples.
The three disciples started eating at the same time. After the surprise flashed across their faces, they then devoured it.
“Which mushroom soup is more delicious?”
Shi Chui asked the first disciple who taught the dish.
"They're all delicious, but they're all gone before I've had enough." The disciple who passed on the food said regretfully.
Shi Chui rolled his eyes: "I must name the most delicious one!"
“This bowl is the most delicious!”
The bowl picked up by the disciples representing the mushroom soup made by Gu Zheng.
"Why is this bowl so delicious?" Shi Chui asked unwillingly.
"I can't describe it, but it's the most delicious." The disciple who taught the dish scratched his head.
"And you?"
Feeling unhappy, Shi Chui asked the second disciple.
“I also think this bowl is the most delicious!”
The bowl picked up by the second disciple who passed down the dish also contained Guzheng fungus soup.
"What's the reason?" Shi Chui was a little anxious.
"It's over before you taste it. Why don't Chef Shi give me two more bowls so I can taste it?" the second disciple said with a playful smile.
"good!"
Logically speaking, Shi Chui shouldn't show that he cared, let alone give him a second chance. After all, Chuancai disciple had already given the answer once.
However, Gu Zheng just folded his arms and smiled, which made Butler Hu who wanted to say something have no choice but to keep his mouth shut.
"Delicious!"
After two bowls of fungus soup, the disciple who taught the dish licked his lips with unsatisfied interest, and then solemnly raised the bowl of Guzheng fungus soup: "This one is the most delicious. As for the reason, I can't say, I can only say
Said, it gave me a feeling like walking in the mountains and forests under the scorching sun, which is a very wonderful feeling."
"forget it!"
Seeing that Shi Chui was even more angry, Chen San tugged on his sleeve. According to the rule of two out of three games, Shi Chui had already lost. There was no need to let the third disciple to speak. If the third
A disciple can save a little face by saying that his cooking is delicious, but if the third disciple who teaches the dishes still says that Gu Zheng's fungus soup is more delicious, it will be as embarrassing as it is.
"No!"
Shi Chui said one word persistently, and then asked the third disciple: "It's your turn!"
The third disciple who passed down the dish was about to lift the bowl of Guzheng fungus soup in his hand, but when he saw Shi Chui's widened eyes, he quickly put it down again.
"It's okay, just tell the truth!" Deacon Hu finally spoke.
"I also think this bowl is the most delicious!"
The third disciple who passed on the dishes finally lifted the bowl he originally wanted to lift.
"Okay, you can go out!"
Deacon Hu asked the three disciples to leave, and then looked at Shi Chui: "Che Shi, it's not good for you to keep your face down like this! It's just a competition, winning or losing is normal, please be more open-minded."
"Deacon Hu is right!"
Although he said this, Shi Chui quickly filled a bowl of mushroom soup made by Gu Zheng.
"Master Gu, according to the agreement, I, Shi Chui, lost, but everyone has their own preferences for carrots and cabbages, so I feel a little dissatisfied with the loss! How about we wait for you to compete with Chen San and then we can have another match?"
Shi Cui, who has tasted mushroom soup, really feels that the mushroom soup made by Gu Zheng is just a little bit worse than his.
"No need to compete with Shi Chu again, there is still business to do today!"
Originally we were just lowering our strength to compete, but who would have thought that we would encounter a weirdo who was willing to be poisoned but not admit defeat! With such a person, Gu Zheng would naturally not compete with him again, and even canceled it because of this, to taste the taste of his fungus soup.
What kind of plan.
"Okay, I get it now!"
Shi Chui's eyes lit up, and he seemed to have thought of something, and immediately told Chen San something.
Gu Zheng secretly laughed, and after Shi Chui finished speaking, he spoke to Chen San: "Chen San, can our discussion begin?"
When encountering a chef like Shi Cui with a bad character, Gu Zheng actually no longer wants to compete with Chef Chen San. After all, those who are close to Zhu are red and those who are close to Mo are black! But they have an appointment in front of them, so they still make do with the competition.
Go down!
"Okay, but I have a condition. Next time I won't choose these disciples to do the tasting. They are all laymen! This time the referee can only choose one, how about choosing Elder Meng?" Shi Chui said.
Elder Meng of Shushan is regarded as the most delicious elder. Although Gu Zheng has never met this person, he has heard people mention him and has done something related to him.
When Gu Zheng and Luo Xiao went to the back mountain of Shu Mountain, the colorful feather sparrow egg they picked up was what Elder Meng ordered from Elder Feng.
"Can."
After Gu Zheng responded, he looked at Deacon Hu: "It seems that this matter will trouble Deacon Hu again!"
"You're welcome, Master Gu. My mission today is to serve you! I'm going to invite Elder Meng here. He will definitely be very interested in this kind of thing."
After Deacon Hu left, Gu Zheng and Chen San immediately made their own preparations.
In the back mountain of Shu Mountain, a lot of the Purple Invisible Sky harvested by Guzheng were distributed to Shushan. Most of the Purple Invisible Sky allocated to Shushan fell into the hands of Elder Feng, who used the spring water from the earth's veins to make
It has now become the sour bamboo shoots on the food list for the closing banquet.
The meat used in ‘Stir-fried Pork with Sour Bamboo Shoots’ is not ordinary pork or beef, but leg meat from a species called ‘Ground Bird’ from the Sichuan Ruins.
The ingredients of the pickled bamboo shoots are of average grade, and the meat of the groundbird is also average. When Gu Zheng ordered from the ingredients list, he also ordered the sour soup used to soak the pickled bamboo shoots, as well as some oil from the groundbird.
Although the groundbird is a spiritual beast, this is not Chen San's first time cooking. He is still very confident in mastering this kind of food.
Before the competition, Chen San said that among the ingredients used by Gu Zheng, there are two kinds of auxiliary materials. He does not use these two auxiliary materials. He uses the auxiliary materials that he thinks are better. And the two auxiliary materials he refers to in Gu Zheng,
It is the sour soup in which the pickled bamboo shoots are soaked, and some network oil from the stomach of the groundbird.
Chen San doesn’t use the soup for soaking sour bamboo shoots or the oil for groundbirds. This is because he doesn’t understand these two things well! In his opinion, the soup for soaking sour bamboo shoots tastes very sour and has a strange smell.
Taste! He didn’t know what Gu Zheng was doing with the soup for soaking the sour bamboo shoots. Anyway, he felt that it was not suitable to appear in this dish at all.
As for groundbird oil, although the mesh oil is a bit special, it looks particularly white and tender, as if it is semi-liquid. However, this oil is full of groundbird body odor, which is really refreshing.
People feel unfit to appear in high quality dishes.
Gu Zheng was dealing with the ingredients. He knew that Chen San was watching him, and he also knew that Chen San didn’t use sour soup and ground bird oil because he couldn’t control these two unconventional ingredients. The ingredients Chen San used were more
For stone cooking, it is more abundant.
Ingredients powder, oil, green and red pepper, minced garlic, starch.
The auxiliary ingredients used by Chen San don't sound like too many, but after analysis by Qi Ling, the powder alone contains: Sichuan peppercorns, dried ginger, cinnamon, galangal, star anise, kaempferol, cumin, cardamom,
Spices such as Zhenpi, Angelica dahurica, woody incense, cloves, and grass fruits.
When he first heard the analysis of Qi Ling, Gu Zheng couldn't help but feel a little emotional. After all, Shushan is a famous sect. Although cultivators usually don't have high requirements for food and drink, there are still all these grades in the kitchen.
Nice spices, this is really not something that ordinary people can come up with.
Cut the green and red peppers and pickled bamboo shoots into shreds. Boil the groundbird meat in the soup and then tear it into shreds along the texture.
Put oil in the pot, when the oil is hot, add groundbird meat and fry until it changes color, then take it out.
Use the remaining oil in the pot to sauté the minced garlic until fragrant, then add shredded green and red peppers and shredded sour bamboo shoots and stir-fry until raw. Add the previously fried groundbird meat and stir-fry evenly.
During the cooking period, Chen San's inner energy penetrated into the pot many times and acted on the ingredients.
As for Gu Zheng, it still took a lot of time to process the ingredients.
First boil the groundbird meat and tear it into shreds, then put it into the sour bamboo shoot soup that has been boiled off the heat and soaked for a while.
During the process of boiling the sour and sour soup in which groundbird meat is soaked, Gu Zheng had already treated it with trace amounts of substances, so that when it was actually boiling, everyone in the kitchen was sucking it hard.
The nose, deeply felt the sour aroma that was refreshing but not irritating, making people want to drool! But this special sour aroma had completely disappeared from Chen San's heart.
Weird smell!
The purple color was originally discovered by Gu Zheng, and he told Elder Feng how to use it to make sour bamboo shoots. Therefore, he had an incomparable understanding of the effects of sour bamboo shoot soup that Chen San could not match.
After processing the groundbird meat, Gu Zheng refined the semi-liquid groundbird oil. During this process, he also processed the trace substances, so that the trace substances belonging to the groundbird's body odor completely disappeared, and the remaining
There is only one kind that cannot be described as fragrant.
Stir-fry the soaked groundbird meat with groundbird oil. After frying for a while, Gu Zheng added the shredded sour bamboo shoots and stir-fried them together. The sour bamboo shoots are already salty, so there is no need to add them again.
Salt.
Without the Water Control Technique and the Fire Control Technique to perform, Gu Zheng could only work harder on controlling the temperature of the fire.
There is a sour aroma in the pot, and the smell is stronger than what Chen San made before. The smell makes people's stomach growl.
Finally, when the dish was ready, the cooks who were busy stopped what they were doing and looked at Elder Meng who was about to start tasting.
Elder Meng had already arrived, but he saw that Gu Zheng and Chen San were both concentrating on cooking, so he didn't bother him. At this time, he saw that Gu Zheng's 'Stir-fried Pork with Sour Bamboo Shoots' had also been completed, so he opened his mouth and said
: “After being tortured by the sour smell for a long time, I can finally taste the delicious food!”
Without saying anything more, Elder Meng walked straight towards the 'fried pork with sour bamboo shoots' made by Chen San.
"Elder Meng, you'd better try Master Gu's dishes first. After all, he is a guest."
Chen San remembered Shi Chui's explanation. What Shi Chui Fu'er had told him before was that the dish that was tasted first would suffer more.
In fact, Shi Chui was right to tell Chen San this. After all, this is not a professional food review. In a professional food review, the judges only taste a little bit of one dish and will immediately taste the next dish.
However, the three previous disciples who passed on the dishes all finished one dish and then ate another! There was a lot to eat, and there was a gap in time, which made it easy for people to only focus on the second dish.
Very impressive.
Elder Meng glanced at Shi Cui with a strange expression, as if he understood what Shi Cui was thinking about. After shaking his head and smiling, he walked towards the 'Fried Pork with Sour Bamboo Shoots' made by Gu Zheng.
"From a picky point of view, in terms of color, flavor, and color, the 'Sour Bamboo Shoot Stir-fried Pork' made by Gu Zhang is a bit inferior. After all, there are no shredded green and red peppers in it, so it looks too vegetarian. As for the food,
The color and taste are different. The color should be relatively bright to arouse people's appetite."
"However, this has little impact on my final evaluation. After all, this is not an overly professional review. There are many other factors involved. For example, the ancient leader did not even use Nei Jin, and the ingredients used were somewhat different.
Wait, it’s normal that the color will be affected a little by this.”
Elder Meng would actually start his comment from the perspective of sex, which Gu Zheng had not thought of before. Chen San, who was originally a little stressed because Shi Chui lost the competition, felt relieved after hearing this inconsequential comment.
Elder Meng picked up Gu Zheng's plate of 'fried pork with sour bamboo shoots', sniffed it lightly and closed his eyes, as if he had taken a sip of wine and was savoring the taste of the wine.
"Acid, a very transparent acid with a different kind of fragrance."
After Elder Meng commented on the incense, he picked up his chopsticks, added a bit of sour bamboo shoots and put it in his mouth. After chewing it for a while, he said again: "I have eaten the sour bamboo shoots made by Lao Feng, and the taste is nothing to say. Guzhang
The sour bamboo shoots in the menu are better than what I have eaten before, but they are not amazing."
Elder Meng's evaluation, Gu Zheng agrees with. There is no need to use magic. The taste of sour bamboo shoots can be slightly improved. For a mixed-flavor dish, it is already considered good. After all, stir-frying is not as good as stewing soup. Without using
Under the premise of immortality, it is difficult to eliminate all trace substances that can affect the taste.
After tasting the sour bamboo shoots, when Elder Meng picked up a piece of ground bird meat, he added: "The oil used by the ancient master for cooking was actually the oil of the ground bird, and there was no trace of it in the sour bamboo shoots he just tasted.
The bad taste is to be expected, but I still admire it."
After saying this, Elder Meng put the ground bird meat into his mouth.
Elder Meng's expression remained unchanged when the ground bird meat entered his mouth, but when he began to chew it, his eyes opened wider and wider, and the frequency of chewing became faster and faster.
After finishing a mouthful of meat, Elder Meng's face was full of surprise.
"Sure enough, the most outstanding part of 'Stir-fried Pork with Sour Bamboo Shoots' is the groundbird meat! I have eaten groundbird meat before, and this kind of meat that needs to be shredded to eat usually has a woody texture.
, and this taste is not that wonderful.”
"The ground bird oil used by the ancient master has less contamination on the outside of the ingredients, but more on the inside of the meat. This different change makes the original taste of wood become much more fragrant and tender.
It’s even more delicious because of it!”
"Furthermore, the groundbird meat cooked in sour soup makes the original aroma and tenderness changed by the oil more prominent, and therefore has a transparent but not offensive sourness! And this sourness,
It’s more refreshing and eye-catching than the ordinary sour taste!”
Elder Meng paused for a moment, then looked at the other cooks: "Is the rice ready to be steamed?"
"It's almost ready." A cook replied.
"Okay, I'm going to wait for Master Gu's plate of 'Fried Pork with Sour Bamboo Shoots' and enjoy it with rice. This will definitely be a wonderful experience!"
Elder Meng looked forward to the experience that would follow. After rinsing his mouth quickly, he picked up the 'fried pork with sour bamboo shoots' made by Chen San.
"I won't comment on the color. As for the fragrance, it's quite good in the first place, but compared to the one from the ancient master, it's obviously a bit inferior. It doesn't have the refreshing and transparent feeling!"
While Elder Meng shook his head, he took a piece of sour bamboo shoots and put it into his mouth. As he ate, he frowned.
Without making any comments, Elder Meng took another piece of ground bird meat and put it in his mouth. With his neck stretched out, it was obviously difficult to swallow. Chen San wanted to cry.
"Cook Chen, the 'Stir-fried Pork with Sour Bamboo Shoots' you made is pretty good. At least I can feel that you made this dish with great care. The spices in the meat also taste very good, but in essence, the texture is
It’s still firewood. Among the two ingredients, the feeling of sourness after entering the meat is even more different from what Guzhang made! I won’t say more, you will understand if you try what Guzhang makes.
There’s a gap.”
Elder Meng has already given Chen San a lot of face. It was fine when he ate sour bamboo shoots just now. When he ate groundbird meat, he almost couldn't help but spit it into the trash can. It's really hard to compare people to each other.
The goods have to be thrown away!
Chen San did not question Elder Meng's words, but he still tasted the 'fried pork with sour bamboo shoots' made by Gu Zheng.
"Master Gu, I lost, I am convinced!"
After tasting the 'Fried Pork with Sour Bamboo Shoots', Chen San's face was full of disappointment.
Gu Zheng's 'Stir-fried Pork with Sour Bamboo Shoots' made a big breakthrough, and it was a breakthrough in a good way. Compared with Gu Zheng's 'Stir-fried Pork with Sour Bamboo Shoots', what he did seemed very mediocre. This is Chen San
The feeling in the heart.
Gu Zheng didn't say much, just nodded.
In fact, whether it is Chen San or Shi Chui, their cooking skills are also very good, but as the saying goes, people will die when comparing with others, and goods will be thrown away when comparing goods.
"Elder Meng, please try it. This is the 'fungus soup' that Master Gu and I made before. It's still warm!" Shi Chui smiled flatteringly at Elder Meng.
"If you don't tell me, I want to taste it too. There are vegetables and soup. My meal will be perfect later."
Elder Meng paused for a moment, then looked at Shi Cui with a half-smile but not a smile: "Whose do you want me to taste first?"
Shi Chui looked embarrassed, but still insisted on his idea: "Let's try Sect Master Gu's first!"
"hehe."
Elder Meng smiled and took out the 'fungus soup' made by the two of them from the clay pots.
"First of all, let's talk about the color. The 'mushroom soup' made by Master Gu only has various kinds of mushrooms. The 'mushroom soup' made by Shi Chu has red dates, wolfberry and chopped green onion floating in it. The color is not as good as that of 'sour bamboo shoots'
The color of the fried pork, the 'fried pork with sour bamboo shoots' is a meat dish, and the brighter color is better, but the 'mushroom soup' is a pure vegetarian dish. The chopped green onions you put in it first made me think
It’s a failure. I suddenly lost my aura and felt vulgar! Shi Chu, maybe everyone has their own preferences for radish and cabbage. For this color, I think the ‘true color’ of Master Gu is better!”
Elder Meng just commented on one color, and Shi Chui's face was already wrinkled like a bitter gourd.
"Elder Meng is commenting on vegetarian dishes, so the soup I prepared with all my heart will be counterproductive," Shi Chui thought.
There were eight kinds of mushrooms used in the ‘Mushroom Soup’. Elder Meng tasted a little of each, and the expression on his face also changed with the taste of different mushrooms.
He did not comment on the mushrooms for the time being. After eating the mushrooms, Elder Meng took another delicious sip of the soup and then spoke.
"Although I didn't see how the ancient master made the 'mushroom soup', I can taste the different food processing methods from the taste of the mushrooms, including steaming and roasting. There are many varieties, and the taste is very good."
"As for the soup, the wonderful taste of the mixture of eight kinds of fungi is like a spring rain, making people feel that the world seems to be a lot fresher."
"This soup dish is excellent, but it's not as stunning as the previous 'Stir-fried Pork with Sour Bamboo Shoots'! However, it also has its merits. At least the mushrooms in it retain their respective flavors to a great extent.
It gives a variety of textures in one dish!”
After commenting on Gu Zheng’s mushroom soup, Elder Meng served Shi Cui’s mushroom soup.
If we only look at the smell, the fragrance of Shichui's 'fungus soup' is stronger than that of Guzheng's.
"Shi Chu, I also love to eat meat, even without it! But when you are used to eating meat, the sudden appearance of a vegetarian food with a unique taste will still make people excited. Your soup is very fragrant, but
But it’s not as pure as the ancient leader.”
After commenting on the taste of Shichui's mushroom soup, Elder Meng tasted eight kinds of mushrooms and soup in turn.
"Shi Chu, you have also worked hard. Whether it is through the order of putting them in or through the control of internal energy, your initial starting point is to preserve the taste of the fungus itself to the greatest extent. However,
At this point, you are not as good as Gu Zhangmen. The taste of the fungus itself is still retained, but it has not broken away from the characteristics of 'one pot stew'. The texture and taste of two or three kinds of fungi, if you don't experience it carefully, almost all tastes are different.
They're the same! Originally, their flavors weren't so difficult to distinguish, but the soup stock blurred them, or unified them."
"As for the taste of the soup, normally I can't tell, but it depends on who you compare it with. So, I think the one made by Master Gu is more delicious!"
As soon as Elder Meng finished speaking, he took the lead in applauding, and there was a burst of applause in the kitchen.
Gu Zheng clasped his fists at everyone, said a few polite words, and then started the busyness of the closing banquet.
Shi Chui was still a little dissatisfied, but he also knew that this time the discussion was over.
"Rice, where's the rice? I'm about to start eating, 'Stir-fried Pork with Sour Bamboo Shoots' and 'Mushroom Soup', I can't wait!"
The cooks did not dare to keep Elder Meng waiting any longer and quickly served hot white rice.
Seeing how delicious Elder Meng was eating, many of the cooks secretly swallowed their saliva, imagining a plate of 'fried pork with sour bamboo shoots', a bowl of 'mushroom soup', and a bowl of fragrant white rice.
What kind of experience would it be.
“So cool, so delicious!”
Some of what Elder Meng ate was sweet, some were extremely enjoyable, and finally some of the cooks couldn't bear it.
"Master Gu, can you make some special dishes and soups like this later so that we people can try them too?"
"Yes, Master Gu, I'm sorry to trouble you!"
The cook took the lead in speaking, and several other cooks immediately joined in.
Under normal circumstances, the cooks are good at eating! But who told Gu Zheng to make the 'Mushroom Soup' and 'Sour Bamboo Shoot Stir-fried Pork' that they can't make? What's even more tragic is that they are not on the list of guests for the closing banquet.
, so if you want to enjoy the delicious food that Elder Meng enjoys now, there is no other way but to beg Gu Zheng.
"Well..." Gu Zheng lengthened his voice, then smiled and said, "Of course I didn't ask him!"
"Thank you, Master Gu, thank you, Master Gu!"
Cheers suddenly burst out, and Gu Zheng was naturally very happy. A group of cooks begged another cook to make food. It was quite interesting to think about it.
"Not bad, Xiao Zhengzi, you really won this competition." Qi Ling's voice sounded.
"Please, can you be normal?"
Gu Zheng was full of black lines, and Xuan Qizi's name for him was actually used by Qi Ling.
"Giggle, that's a pretty good name! Do you have such a big reaction? You did a good job today, keep up the good work!" Qi Ling said happily.
Qi Ling's recent changes are really big. In addition to the obvious changes, every time she talks to Gu Zheng, if she doesn't want to talk anymore, she will feel like she is drifting away just like her happy voice just now.
This was used to make Gu Zheng understand that she was running away.
"Why do I always have the feeling that Qi Ling seems to have ulterior motives for my competition with Shi Chui and Chen San?" Gu Zheng secretly said, then shook his head and stopped thinking about it. Anyway, Qi Ling did not directly say similar questions.
, he asked in vain.
In the evening, Shushan Banquet Living Room.
In the festive atmosphere decorated with lights and colors, thirty tables in the banquet hall were already occupied.
When the banquet was about to begin, Qin Haotian, the leader of Shushan, began to speak.
"The dinner is for celebration. We have harvested the cultivation resources for the next few years from the Shu Ruins. This will make it easier for us to survive in this age of Dharma-ending."
"This year's Shu Ruins opened, and a lot of things happened. Some of the disciples will never appear again! However, they died a worthy and worthwhile death. They gave their lives so that we can live better!
So for today’s first glass of wine, let’s pay tribute to those disciples who died in the Shu Ruins!”
After Qin Haotian toasted with everyone, they all poured their drinks on the ground.
"Today's second glass of wine, we want to honor the people who came out of the Ruins of Shu! They all contributed more or less to the blood souls. They are all heroes and models of righteousness in the world!
"
After Qin Haotian finished speaking, Gu Zheng and others stood up. After everyone paid respect, they drank their second glass of wine.
"The third glass of wine is a blessing wine. I won't go into too many blessings. I just hope that the Shushan lineage will coexist and prosper in the world!"
Everyone raised their glasses again and drank the third glass of wine.
"Have a banquet!"
Qin Haotian gave an order, and the musicians in the banquet hall played ancient music. The disciples serving the dishes also immediately became busy.
After that, there was a lively scene of eating, drinking and drinking.
However, it is inevitable that some people will be happy and others will be sad. In fact, everyone already knows that after the Shuxu incident, Ziyun Palace will become even more powerful, and Emei, which has been at the bottom of the five major branches for many years, will also be affected by this.
rise.
The dishes cooked by Shi Chui and Chen San are actually very good. If they had participated in the food competition that Gu Zheng had participated in outside, they would have ranked within the top fifteen, and the dishes they cooked would naturally have won the prize.
Everyone's praise. However, the finale dish that appeared later made everyone's praise even more endless.
The next day, near noon, Chu Xiaochen came to see Gu Zheng.
Chu Xiaochen's memory has been 'woven' by Gu Zheng, but she still remembers some things. She remembers that Gu Zheng helped her and was her benefactor, but in the process, she was less moved, so that she would not
Just like before, the ancient contention is extraordinarily different.
"Gu Zheng, I came to see you this time because I have something to ask for."
The memory was changed, and Chu Xiaochen's expression became much normal when he spoke, as if he was looking at a close friend.
"Say it!"
Gu Zheng said lightly, in fact, he had already guessed the reason why Chu Xiaochen would come to him at this time.
"For the places in the Spirit Sword District that can be obtained by paying tribute, the only sects that can compete this time are Ziyun Palace and Emei Sect. I would like to ask you to give up this competition and give up the place to Ziyun Palace!" Chu Xiao
Morning Road.
"Okay! Then I will tell Elder Lin, who is responsible for registering and paying tribute, that Emei gives up the qualification to compete for the Spirit Sword District."
Since he had guessed it, Gu Zheng agreed without hesitation.
When he first came to Shushan, Gu Zheng had the intention of getting the tribute quota.
However, since the reward for killing the blood soul has given Emei such a quota, then Gu Zheng does not need to take this quota that can only be obtained by paying tribute.
"Thank you."
After thanking Chu Xiaochen, he extended an invitation to Gu Zheng: "I'm going to try my luck in the Lingjian District now. Do you want to come with me?"
"I also want to go to Hidden Sword Peak, but I want to wait until the afternoon to try my luck." Gu Zheng shied away.
To make Chu Xiaochen less moved, Gu Zheng just didn’t want to get too close to him! According to Chu Xiaochen’s current attitude, it would be okay to go to Hidden Sword Peak together. However, at the closing banquet last night, Gu Zheng came from Shushan
He learned from an elder that Chu Xiaochen's partner was a very jealous person, and he didn't want to cause any unnecessary trouble.
Chu Xiaochen frowned: "Why did you have to wait until the afternoon to go to the Lingjian Area after you went to Hidden Sword Peak?"
