"Since you are sure, I won't ask any more questions!"
Kirisenzaemon seemed quite dissatisfied at this time, but Zhao Youqian's confidence remained the same, leaving him unable to say anything more.
"But I still want to remind you that the judges of the Dark Shoji are different from the ordinary Shoji!"
"Even if you often entertain hundreds of ghosts, it's a completely different concept!"
Kirisenzaemon seemed to have experienced a normal experience, with a glimmer of memory in his eyes.
"If the general shokuji judges look at the color, flavor, and heart, then the dark shokuji judges want your dishes to reach the ultimate color, flavor, and taste, and to completely surpass your imagination in mind and heart. Unless you The taste is crushing!"
"You should understand what I mean!"
He nodded. Since Zhao Youqian agreed to the Dark Food Halberd, he naturally already knew the secret. Hirano Jiro wanted to trick him but he still thought too little.
"Besides, I already have a winning recipe!"
"The commander-in-chief has forgotten who my teacher is!"
Hearing this, Kirisenzaemon was stunned for a moment, then thinking about Zhao Youqian's graduation history, a name crossed his mind.
Then the look on his face suddenly turned into laughter.
"No wonder, no wonder, the hundreds of ghosts all look like you are bound to win. To deal with the judges of the Dark Food Halberd, no one can compare to your teachers, especially after you have learned that..."
"Well, it seems that my worries are unfounded!"
Shaking his head, knowing that he was worrying in vain, Kirisenzaemon stood up unsteadily.
"In this case, I will leave and wait for Master Yougan to report the victory."
"By the way, the Hirano family's property is not small!"
Zhao You was stunned for a moment, then nodded.
"It just so happens that the Hundred Ghosts also need such a way to integrate into modern society!"
Smiling dumbly, Kirisenzaemon left without saying anything more, minding his own business.
On the other hand, Yuki-onna looked at Kirisenzaemon's back thoughtfully.
But seeing that Zhao Youqian was already preparing to continue practicing his cooking skills, he didn't say anything.
'It's not that important anyway.'
The snow girl finally calmed down, and her thoughts soon disappeared.
...
The news about the Dark Food Halberd has not spread, or in other words, the news about the extraordinary power will be controlled.
Just like the Night Parade of One Hundred Ghosts, Zhao Youqian's unbridled behavior did not bring any strange stories to the Kyoto Emperor. On the contrary, because of the advance notification and control, it was actually easier to handle than the previous troubles.
And just as Zhao Youqian said, after experiencing the Night Walk of One Hundred Ghosts, the entire night in Kyoto became much more peaceful.
Even because the annual festival of Sengen Shrine has not been completed, the number of various evil spirits formed by rising resentment is also decreasing rapidly.
But everyone knows this is only temporary.
The real story depends on the Sengen Shrine annual festival.
The time for Zhao Yougan and Hirano Jiro's Dark Halberd Eater has also been set.
Not long after, Zhao Youqian didn't even receive a few guests at Zhutian Restaurant. Three days later, the location decided was the foot of Fusheng Mountain!
It is located close to Sengen Shrine.
I think the trouble caused by Hirano Jiro has been made known to Asama Shrine, otherwise the place would not have chosen this place specially. In order to put Hirano Jiro under psychological pressure, Asama Shrine's method is not very clever, but it is also very practical. .
At least after Hirano Jiro knew the location, his expression changed slightly.
It's a pity that the being who set the time and place doesn't care about his wishes at all. Since he chooses to participate in the Dark Food Halberd, the judges' requirements are the biggest rules.
Zhao Youqian finally relaxed among the piles of white flour mountains. After all, it is not easy to modify this inherited recipe. One more point will make it look too much, and one point less will make it bland.
But he finally managed it!
Thanks to the previous preparation of 'Moon Reflecting in the Lotus Pond', a dish that can conquer Nuliang's gourds, it will naturally get the most love from the outsiders. As for the extremely poisonous and extremely fresh insect-patterned Oriental dolphin, the transformation he needs to do is, It is to make the recipes in his hands purer and add unforgettable elements.
“Finally done!”
After moving his joints, Zhao Youqian walked out of the kitchen.
Although you don't have to worry about the consumption of ingredients when practicing in Zhutian Xiaoguan, you also need to conduct a lot of training in the dormitory to know what accidents may occur when operating in the actual environment.
Fortunately, his skills at Bai An have not fallen behind. Recently, with the improvement of his physical fitness, there is even a tendency to improve further.
He has a feeling that when his body breaks through the bottleneck of lv20, perhaps his fire, knife skills, white paper, and craftsmanship will have a very obvious improvement, and at that time, all his accumulation before the special level will be completely completed. when.
And now he is getting closer and closer to that day...
...
Fusheng Mountain at night is different from the sacredness in the daytime.
Occasionally, little lights were lit at the foot of the mountain, as if stars were shining in this holy place of Eastern Sakura. At this time, cooking equipment and cooking tables suddenly appeared in a cherry blossom forest.
It's as if they have been there from the beginning.
Even insiders who had already arrived at the venue and were waiting could not help but wipe their eyes, fearing that they had seen it wrong!
"This power..."
There was no warning at all, and it could be called the ability to transform space. Even if he was a member of the extraordinary world, some people still sighed in disbelief.
This is also the time when the Dark Shoji has disappeared. No one thought that someone would trigger it recently. Although there was not much commotion outside, there were still a lot of spectators when the Shoji started.
However, the origins of these viewers are not so easy to see.
Just like the dark night, most of the spectators who come to watch bathe themselves in the night, hindering the awareness of the existence around them and even nearby.
Only a few floating spiritual fires like wandering souls can be seen wandering in the mid-air.
The time and place have been decided, and Zhao Youqian will naturally not be late. The rules of the Dark Food Halberd are actually very simple. Unless certain rules are specifically set, whoever can satisfy the judges more will win.
There are no restrictions on cooking and ingredients.
But if anyone just thinks about using fantasy ingredients to win, then these judges who come from unpredictable places will definitely make him miserable.
For these beings, dreamy ingredients are not surprising. Exquisite cooking skills, the courage to risk everything, and the thought put into cooking are the most important parts of them!
As time passed, the two parties gradually began to gather.
Zhao Youqian was followed by hundreds of ghosts, and Hirano Jiro led all the dark cooks. The two cooks, who were on the verge of death, just looked at each other, and they were already full of excitement!
