Chapter 339 Baohua
‘You can’t continue like this anymore.’
Yuchen put down the kitchen knife made of ice gold and black iron in his hand, and looked at the various materials that had not been processed in front of him, and his eyes narrowed slightly.
He has been cooking dishes for three days and three nights in a row. Although he has learned all kinds of dishes in his previous life, the comfortable and flat posture of Huaguang Shangxian also shows no sign of satisfaction. Or, under Yuchen's feeding, the desire of this Shangxian is constantly amplifying.
‘Since the quantity is not good, then just win by quality!’ Several dishes flashed through Yuchen’s mind, and then he began to talk about preparing ingredients one by one.
Then, Yuchen sat cross-legged, closed his eyes and rested for half a quarter of an hour, adjusted his energy to the best level, ignited the flames, and began to process various ingredients one by one.
After a while, a single but not thin, fragrant but not strong smell rose from Yuchen and quickly spread out.
"It smells so good!" Hua Guang Xian walked in with a burning look at Yu Chen.
Yu Chen looked at the tripod in front of him without looking at it, and focused on looking at the tripod in front of him. This tripod was the "die" of "Zhongming Ding Food" in later generations, and the one cooked in it was the legendary "big soup".
The so-called "big soup" is to put it bluntly, a kind of gravy that does not add any seasoning, but has endless aftertaste. It is the so-called "big soup is not mixed, tasteless and has five flavors in shape."
In "The Book of Rites of Da Dai", the big soup is regarded as the "foundation of food". "The Book of Rites·The Book of Music" also records: "The ritual of the great food is to worship mysterious wine and fishy fish on the steak. The big soup is not harmonious and has the taste."
This sentence roughly means that in the most solemn and solemn sacrifice, the wine used is not refined, the fish is not cooked, and the most important soup tastes the fundamental taste.
Its meaning is to advocate one that one is light, one is redundant, and one is lonely.
Similarly, when making this "big soup", Yuchen cannot use too much magic power, and even has very little active traction on spirituality. He should naturally stimulate the original taste of the ingredients as much as possible, allowing them to naturally blend and sublimate naturally.
From a certain perspective, making such a big soup is the real test of a chef's craftsmanship.
In Yuchen's memory, among the three million players who specialized in the cooking arts in his previous life, only one or two of them were sure that they had fully mastered the production of "big soup".
Yuchen now has the courage to make this dish, purely because he awakened the head of the thirty-six paths of Tiangang to mediate the fortune, and has a certain ability to sense and remote control for this natural change.
Therefore, this tripod made a "big soup" for three days and three nights. Apart from some of the minor mistakes, it was still completed overall. Yu Chen, who had been mediating good fortune and focusing on the flames, had a pale face but his eyes were very bright. He bowed to the immortal Huaguang and said, "Please use it!"
Faced with such a portion of food, Hua Guang Shangxian couldn't help but sort out his image and scoop out the first bowl of soup from the cauldron with a very elegant and noble attitude.
There were no strange phenomena, no changes, and even the fragrance did not rise or fall, but the expression of Huaguang Shangxian became more and more serious. When he took the first sip of soup, a faint green air radiated from his body, and at the same time, a fragrance of plants and trees overwhelmed the meat fragrance of "big soup".
Yu Chen sniffed, his whole body trembled, as if a mortal was shocked by an electric shock. A numb feeling wandered around his body, and then a strong vitality surged, extending Yu Chen's life span.
Yuchen calculated the breath he had just smelled, which was enough to restore a centenarian to his youth and live for about 60 years. He thought to himself: "It turns out that the immortal Huaguang combines the way of A and Yi wood to follow the principle of creation."
Silently suppressing his discovery, Yuchen looked at the Huaguang Shangxian who had woken up from the impact of "big soup", and only heard him speak lightly: "I like this food very much. I can't eat too much in a short period of time. You go down and take a rest first, and then come to this Lianchi to find me."
After the words came, Hua Guang Shangxian lowered his head, opened his mouth slightly, and added a little to his lips. The "big soup" in front of Yu Chen disappeared. Hua Guang Shangxian slowly returned to his position, lay lazily there, closed his eyes, and a stream of green air flowed between his mouth and nose.
The green energy quickly spread, covering the immortal Huaguang in a very short time. The sound of wind and thunder could be heard vaguely. Yu Chen hurriedly retreated, and under the guidance of the Taoist boy, he came to a room and silenced his breath.
After waiting for the energy and spirit to be fulfilled, Yuchen went to look for the Immortal Huaguang again.
At this time, the aura around Hua Guang Zhenren was turbulent, as if he had made a breakthrough just now and had not yet calmed down. After seeing Yu Chen, he said bluntly: "You are very unusual."
"Don't say those polite words to me. Since I saw you, I felt that you were very troublesome. Although I could feel that your origin was a little incomplete, I noticed where the origin fell. I carefully investigated and saw the traces of the dead snake of the ancestor of the Xia Dynasty and the Emperor in you. So, when Qing Wan introduced you to me, I was also a little hesitant. Although I have caused quite a few troubles for a bite over the years. But..."
Hua Guang Xian looked at Yu Chen and said word by word: "The troubles you still make me a little worried. Is the food you cook worth my trouble?"
Yu Chen's lips curled up slightly and bowed, "It seems that I am making my senior feel worthy."
"Yes! The big soup you just now makes me feel that it is worth helping you! So..."
Hua Guang Xian waved his hand and said that hundreds of times the ingredients appeared around him, and the flavors of these ingredients were different, obviously with different origins: "As long as you can cook all these ingredients into dishes in the next time to ensure more than 70% of them are effective, I will give you this thing."
As he said that, a mu of celebratory clouds appeared on the immortal top of Huaguang, three of which swayed and shone brightly. Suddenly, on a lotus flower, the lotus seeds sprouted and a new treasure lotus was born.
Huaguang Immortal reached out and picked this treasure. The moment the lotus left Qingyun, the breath of Huaguang Immortal also showed obvious fluctuations, much weaker than before.
Immortal Huaguang wiped away the traces he left in it, handed them to Yuchen, and said, "This is the condensation of my three treasures of energy and spirit, which contains the principle of rebirth and creation. If you take it, it can be used to make up for the origin or as a life-saving thing."
"Thank you, senior!" Yu Chen bowed respectfully and expressed his gratitude.
Hua Guang Xian frowned, put Baohua away, and said, "Don't thank you, and don't be too happy too early. This thing is given to you by your food. If your food is not cooked well, what I give you is not this thing. Now, I won't cook it for me!"
After saying that, Hua Guang Xian lay down again, silently sucking his energy, as if he needed it very much and needed a lot of delicacies to get up.
Yuchen glanced at the ingredients, took a deep breath, and started the crazy cooking work. During this period, Yuchen also borrowed two Taoist boys from Huaguang Shangxian, saying that they were asking them to help, but in fact they were teaching them the way to cook.
