Old Man Ma's cooking skills have indeed reached an extraordinary level. In less than an hour, he once again cooked thirteen extremely delicious dishes.
Chen Xi felt very happy, the kind of happiness he had never experienced since he was a child. The delicacies he had never tasted before not only greatly satisfied his six senses, but also the pure and pure spirit contained in the dishes.
The power was like rain falling from the sky, gathering in the Dantian, and in this very short period of time, a fourth purple cloud of true energy gradually condensed!
In the innate realm, every time you advance one step further, a cloud condensed with true essence will appear in your Dantian, which is called the Foundation Building Cloud Ladder. Until nine clouds are condensed, you can open up the Zi Mansion and become a Zi Man with Tao Foundation to officially enter the Immortal Mansion.
Fu monk.
Chen Xi has been stuck in the third level of Xiantian realm for five full years, not because of poor qualifications, but because the longevity lock left by his mother Zuo Qiuxue has quietly absorbed the true essence from his body during these five years.
, until the longevity lock was broken, revealing the jade pendant inside, as if the imprisonment was broken. From then on, I never worried about being unable to improve my realm.
However, even so, without the support of foreign objects such as primeval stones and miraculous elixirs, his progress was extremely slow. He never expected that just eating a dozen dishes would cause his realm to break through to another level again like a blowout.
Naturally, he was extremely surprised.
However, along with happiness, he also felt a kind of torture. Every time Old Man Ma cooked a delicious dish, the alluring smell that stimulated his sense of smell made him unable to stop. He originally planned to only taste it briefly, but in the end he completely fell into the trap of not caring about his image.
Gobbling up food made him feel more and more ashamed, and he felt more and more like a big foodie who couldn't resist temptation.
Old Man Ma was also startled by Chen Xi's eating appearance. Looking at the fourteen empty jade plates, he couldn't believe his eyes. After a long time, he lost his mind and muttered: "Freak, this guy's belly
Is it a bottomless pit? The apprentice I accepted is too... weird, isn't it? "
When Chen Xi heard this, he felt even more ashamed inside. His face was expressionless after being laughed at, and even more rarely showed a trace of embarrassment.
He also felt very strange. After eating fourteen dishes, he not only didn't feel full, but had the urge to eat a lot of food.
"You freak, you have the same virtues as those who work as coolies, you are a pure foodie!" Old Man Ma muttered again.
However, when these words fell into Chen Xi's ears, they reminded him of a question. It seemed that... ever since he practiced the "Zhou Tianxing Slaughter Body Training Technique", he never felt full. Could this be the reason?
Chen Xi felt the changes in his body carefully, and felt that his flesh and skin seemed to be filled with endless vitality. Even his bones seemed to be lighter by two ounces, and his whole body was surging with a strong and vigorous strength.
At this moment, he completely understood that these dishes rich in spiritual energy could not help but be useful to Qi practitioners, and they could also have an excellent nourishing effect on the physical body of physical practitioners!
Seeing that Chen Xi was dumb and silent, Old Man Ma seemed to have a conscience. He stopped mumbling words that made Chen Xi embarrassed and asked directly: "How many of these fourteen cooking methods have you memorized?"
When it came to talking about business, Chen Xi's expression finally returned to normal, and he muttered: "I have almost all remembered it."
"Really?" Old Man Ma's eyes suddenly widened.
Chen Xi thought for a moment and nodded seriously.
Old Man Ma was still in disbelief. He pointed at the kitchen table and said, "Go and do it, um, just cook the fried ink spirit scorpion."
"Okay!" Chen Xi answered happily, and his movements were extremely crisp and clean. He came to the kitchen table, followed the memory in his mind, and started to operate step by step.
Dissect the Black Spirit Scorpion, prepare ingredients, control the spiritual fire...
Old Man Ma looked at Chen Xi's methodical operation method, and his originally slightly suspicious eyes gradually turned into astonishment and astonishment, until he saw Chen Xi using his true energy to absorb the palms of his hands, and using precise and even force to control the iron spoon and iron pot,
His eyes completely turned into shock.
The steps are exactly the same!
Old Man Ma couldn't help but thought to himself, when I first learned cooking, I failed dozens of times before barely reaching this guy's current level. Could it be that I really accepted a talented apprentice with amazing understanding of cooking?
Thinking of this, he suddenly became excited. Perhaps, the goal that I have never achieved can be achieved with this guy...
After a stick of incense, a plate of dry-fried Mo Ling Scorpion with crispy and juicy meat came out of the pan.
Old Man Ma rushed forward impatiently, picked up a ripe Black Spirit Scorpion and stuffed it into his mouth. He chewed it slowly for a moment, and his expression became dazed again. The taste and the purity of the spiritual energy...were different from what he was cooking.
Not even close!
Chen Xi couldn't help but feel a little uneasy. When he was cooking, he almost couldn't control the rhythm of the spiritual fire several times. Fortunately, he was calm and determined, not panicking, and was able to get through the difficulties without any danger and persevere.
At the end.
"I plan to change the method of teaching cooking." After a while, Old Man Ma seemed to have thought carefully and said slowly: "Pure imitation may not be able to trouble you anymore. In this case, you can start cooking your own dishes.
.”
Chen Xi said in confusion: "What should I do?"
"It's very simple. Take the most basic 1,308 ingredients and cook your own dishes based on their yin and yang properties of the five elements."
Old Man Ma said calmly: "As long as you can make the color, flavor and flavor of the dishes perfect, you will be considered a real Yiyeling chef!"
Chen Xi felt something was wrong. He had just become a spiritual chef apprentice and had only memorized the two books "Atlas of All Things Ingredient" and "Spiritual Fire Collection". As for cooking skills, he had only memorized the instructions for fourteen dishes.
Human steps have no basis at all.
Under such circumstances, how could Old Man Ma make such a request?
Chen Xi was puzzled.
"Just like monks' understanding and perception of the way of heaven vary widely, the cooking skills of every spiritual chef are also different." Old Man Ma said lightly: "Your talent in the way of cooking is extremely amazing. Instead of following my path, why not
Go and explore your own path to cooking!"
At this point, the light of fanatical yearning appeared in Old Man Ma's eyes again. He suddenly turned around, stared closely into Chen Xi's eyes, and said in a deep voice: "However, I will assess you every once in a while. If
If you don’t pass, don’t even think about getting the salary from Qingxi Restaurant!”
Chen Xi was stunned, and suddenly felt a sense of abandonment, accompanied by bloody exploitation.
…
Inside the small dark room.
Could it be that the fried ink scorpion you cooked was unpalatable? Is Old Man Ma taking revenge on himself?
Chen Xi looked at the various ingredients piled up around him, as well as the brand-new and shiny kitchen counters and kitchen utensils, his eyes were confused and he had a lot of thoughts.
He was the only one here, and according to Old Man Ma's wishes, unless he could cook his own dishes and reach the level of a Yiyeling chef, he would not be able to come out of the small dark room.
This old guy has a weird temper and his behavior is so weird, he is simply a crazy bastard!
Chen Xi thought of what Old Man Ma said, and even with his endurance, he couldn't help but feel annoyed. He just wanted to earn some yuan stones to help his younger brother pay for school, and he had never thought about taking the path of cooking!
After being annoyed, Chen Xi quickly calmed down and looked at everything around him. He knew that it was useless to complain anymore. It was better to think about how to use these ingredients to cook dishes that would satisfy Old Man Ma and leave this damn little dark room.
He walked to the mountain of ingredients and observed them carefully.
"If you want to become a Ye Ling chef, you must cook a dish suitable for the nourishment of acquired monks. These materials are not only of different types, but also have different tastes. It is especially important to distinguish the attributes of Yin and Yang and the Five Elements in order to achieve mutual growth.
, and they must not be allowed to conflict with each other..."
When Chen Xi got serious, he undoubtedly had extremely amazing explosive power. His mind was spinning wildly, and combined with the knowledge he learned from the "Vientiane Ingredients Illustrated Book", he began to sort out the mountains of various ingredients.
After a stick of incense.
He sorted all the ingredients into two large piles, representing the two attributes of yin and yang respectively. Each large pile was divided into five small pieces, representing the five elements of metal, wood, water, fire, and earth. Each ingredient with the same five elements was classified by him based on taste.
The growth environment, main ingredients, auxiliary ingredients, etc. are divided into several smaller areas.
This process took him almost a day. In order to make sure it was correct, he even tasted the bloody demon bird blood and the serous ingredients that looked extremely disgusting in color. His tongue was almost tortured by various weird and exciting flavors.
I was so numb that I almost felt sick and almost vomited several times.
However, when he saw the various ingredients presented in an orderly manner, Chen Xi still felt a little relieved. He didn't bother to wipe the sweat from his forehead, and he began to figure out how to create new dishes.
Time passed by, and after a long time, Chen Xi stood up, picked out more than ten kinds of ingredients, and went straight to the kitchen counter.
Wow!
After handling the ingredients and condiments step by step, Chen Xi started cooking without hesitation. However, within half a quarter of an hour, a burnt smell escaped from the bottom of the pot.
He was already prepared for failure, so he was not surprised when he saw this. He put the dishes on a jade plate and ate them in one bite.
"The spiciness is too strong, and the spiritual power of woad flowers and wine-flavored fish is out of balance. It seems that they should be cooked slowly over a slow fire..."
The taste was very strange, but Chen Xi seemed to have no feeling at all. He chewed his mouth blankly, focusing entirely on analyzing the reasons for the failure.
After eating and wiping clean, Chen Xi started cooking again.
The five elements are uneven, failure!
Wrong seasoning, failed!
Improper handling of ingredients, failure!
The cooking technique is too heavy, the true energy escapes, and it fails!
…
After more than ten consecutive failures, Chen Xi no longer felt anything. He swallowed each failure one by one, calmly analyzed the reasons for each failure, and then started again. His calm and dull face was expressionless, as if
A tireless machine, boringly repeating the same actions.
Chen Xi completely failed to notice that, instead of being exhausted, his spiritual power was growing at a speed visible to the naked eye, like a stream under a heavy rain.
