Chapter 341 Indescribable

Gu Zheng was packing up the ingredients for the third course, and Elder Wuchou had already deliciously eaten a 'charcoal-grilled green-feathered bird'.

“It’s so delicious!”

Elder Wuchou sighed while sucking his fingers in vain, his eyes frequently falling on Gu Zheng's 'charcoal-roasted green-feathered sparrow'.

Gu Zheng rolled his eyes at Elder Wuchou and chose to ignore the desire in his eyes.

Although Gu Zheng had obtained the green-feathered sparrow for some time, he had not eaten it yet. Not only Green Feather Sparrow, but he has also not eaten most of the ingredients he got in Shu Ruins! After all, if you want to take time off to cook a good meal, such opportunities have always been rare, and there are so many types of ingredients obtained from Shu Ruins. It is impossible to eat them all in a short while, unless It's about trying something new.

The ingredients for the third dish were ready. Gu Zheng washed his hands and took a bite of the 'charcoal-roasted green bird' under the gaze of Elder Wuchou who was swallowing his saliva. Suddenly, the burnt-yellow skin made a strange sound, and a tender and fragrant shred of meat inside was torn off by Gu Zheng and swallowed into his mouth.

“It tastes really good.”

A 'charcoal-roasted green bird' was eaten quickly, and to be honest, it was not enough to fill the gap between the teeth.

Glancing at Elder Wuchou, whose face was still full of longing, Gu Zheng said helplessly: "Don't be like this, okay? After all, you are also the second elder of the Emei Sect. Can we be a little bit ambitious? There are two of us each, and you are no better." I’ll eat less!”

"Master, I didn't eat less, but I didn't eat enough!" Elder Wuchou said aggrievedly.

"Okay, don't look sad. When I really want to go back to the city, I will cook a big meal for you! Originally, the 'charcoal-roasted green feathered bird' was not included in this big meal. It’s included in the meal, but since you’re so eager, I’ll just let you taste it when the time comes.” Gu Zheng smiled.

"Thank you, Master, the Master is the best!"

Elder Wuchou hurriedly thanked him, with a hopeless smile still on his face.

The 'Charcoal Grilled Green Feather Bird' has been finished, and the 'Steamed Bass' has also been cooked. The third dish Gu Zheng is going to make now is a vegetarian dish called 'Vegetarian Stir-fried Pumpkin Tips'.

Pumpkin tips are not so abundant on the market that they can be found in any supermarket. They are considered a seasonal wild vegetable. Whether they are stir-fried with vegetables or meat, they taste very good.

Gu Zheng had torn off the fur from the pumpkin tips in advance and cut them into sections. After the oil was hot in the pot, stir-fry minced garlic and shredded peppers. Then he poured in the pumpkin tips, stir-fried and added salt. Fresh fragrance.

‘Vegetarian Stir-fried Pumpkin Tips’ is the fastest dish to prepare among the four dishes and one soup in Gu Zheng. When this dish comes out of the pot, the other dishes and one soup have also been completed.

The fourth dish is the ingredient, the name is 'Cold Radish Skin'. Gu Zheng should be the first to make this dish. After all, it is a cold dish. After Gu Zheng processed the radish skin, he marinated it there. .

As for the last dish of 'mushroom soup', it has already been cooked, and now it is coming out of the pot with a fragrant aroma.

"The four dishes and one soup have been completed. Go and inform him now!" Gu Zheng said.

"Master, I'm still a little worried. I feel that the old man won't be easy to talk to. Besides, the last two dishes are fresh enough, but are they a bit too low-grade, so he will find fault with them?" Elder Wuchou said Concerned eyes.

"Don't worry, he will never find fault on purpose!" Gu Zheng affirmed.

"Why is the leader so sure? Because he said before that he would not cheat?" Elder Wuyou asked.

"No! At first, like you, I thought he wouldn't be easy to talk to, and he might find fault or cheating. But when I was cooking, I thought about it again and felt that the reason why he asked me to cook four dishes and one soup was, in fact, We are trying to find a way out for ourselves. When I came to his house, it was almost impossible to be kind when something like this happened! But what about him? He asked me to cook a dish of four dishes and one soup even though he knew that I had won the Chinese Food Competition. If it’s not to find a step for yourself, then what is it?”

When Jing Guzheng said this, Elder Wuchou's eyes lit up: "The leader's analysis is correct, that should be the case. After all, we in Emei are also a famous sect. Even if they don't know our current level, we really want to go there." You still have to weigh the consequences of being offended in death.”

Gu Zheng nodded: "Go ahead and tell him it's done!"

Elder Wuchou went to notify the old man in Tang suit, and the old man in Tang suit also arranged for someone to bring the four dishes and one soup made by Gu Zheng to the restaurant.

There were lids on the dinner plates. When the old man in Tang suit saw that there were only four plates and a clay pot, his brows suddenly wrinkled: "Don't you have a steamed bowl of rice?"

"No, I confirmed it to you before, and you also said it was just four dishes and one soup."

Before he started cooking, Gu Zheng did confirm with the old man in Tang suit. In that case, he had already made it very detailed. However, the old man in Tang suit did not add that he needed rice. Naturally, Gu Zheng was too lazy to make him a bowl. .

"Well, it turns out that Sect Master Gu had a profound meaning when he asked me before!" The old man in Tang suit shook his head.

"There are still many things waiting for me to deal with in the door. If I can stay here for a little longer, I will have more time to do what I need to do. When I came to your Zhao Mansion today, I didn't expect that there would be a armed conflict. , But things happened after all, no matter who is right or wrong, since we have agreed to use four dishes and one soup to eliminate the festival, then don’t waste time on other things. "

Gu Zheng originally planned to speak politely, but before he spoke, he saw that the young man who was stabbed by Elder Wuchou's flying knife was looking at them with resentful eyes. Just when Gu Zheng was looking at him, The old man in Tang suit who noticed something strange also looked back and also noticed the young man's gaze! However, the old man in Tang suit didn't say anything to this, so Gu Zheng's courtesy was naturally not enough.

Moreover, in the final analysis, Gu Zheng felt that the fault lies with the Zhao family! If they had said from the beginning that Wuchen Gumu had already made a coffin, Guzheng would have given up immediately, and there would be no further sequels at all. However, they felt that they had a strong background, but they did not want to explain clearly, and their attitude was relatively arrogant, which led to everything that happened later.

"Haha." The old man in Tang suit smiled: "Master Gu is right. There is no need to waste time on other things. Since it is according to the agreement, then I will come and taste your cooking. What is the relationship between us? Whether you make a feud or turn it into friendship, it all depends on the four dishes and one soup you make! Everyone has their own habits. For me, I am used to drinking a bowl of soup before eating. "

After the old man Tang Zhuo finished speaking, a young man behind him immediately opened the lid of the clay pot and filled him with a bowl of mushroom soup.

"It's a vegetarian soup. It tastes pretty good, but the colors of the mushrooms in it look a little different."

The old man in Tang suit just smelled the smell and knew that Gu Zheng did not use meat ingredients to make the soup.

Regarding the color and aroma of the soup, the old man in Tang suit had an average reaction, but when he drank a spoonful of soup and mushrooms, his eyes widened instantly: "That shouldn't be the case! I've never had vegetarian mushroom soup before, why is this Doesn't the soup taste so delicious? Isn't there some seasoning added there? If it is added, I will definitely be able to taste it. It is a delicious mixture of several kinds of mushrooms, but it is more mellow!" The old man in Tang suit said to himself, and looked at Gu Zheng: "Just now. The piece of shiitake mushroom I ate, was it specially roasted by Master Gu? "

"That's right." Gu Zheng said calmly.

The 'mushroom soup' I made today is actually very similar to the 'mushroom soup' made in Shushan Kitchen, and the ingredients have also been processed differently. It's just that the ingredients in the 'mushroom soup' are not as high-grade as those in the 'mushroom soup', and there are not as many types.

"When I first saw the mushroom soup, I thought the colors of the mushrooms looked a little different. Now it seems that you have processed these mushrooms in different ways, right?"

"Yes." Gu Zheng still said calmly.

"This processing method is very unique, but no one has done it this way, at least I have done it, but why is the difference in texture and taste so big?" The old man in Tang suit muttered to himself, and then poured all the mushroom soup out of the bowl. Drink.

"I have to say that this is the best mushroom soup I have ever tasted. This soup gave me an amazing feeling!"

After finishing a bowl of mushroom soup, the old man in Tang suit motioned to the person next to him and served him another bowl. In fact, there was something he didn't say out loud. Gu Zheng had already conquered his taste with just this bowl of 'mushroom soup'! He believed that anyone who could make this kind of mushroom soup would be able to make other dishes as well. After all, he himself had won the Chinese Food Competition.

"Master Gu, can you tell me how you make such a delicious soup?" The old man in Tang suit hesitated.

"You also know that I am a cultivator, and my understanding of ingredients is not the same as ordinary people. If your understanding of ingredients can reach a certain level, then you will also know how to turn the original ordinary into something Extraordinary."

In fact, the taste of this 'mushroom soup' is not much different from the 'mushroom soup' made by Shushan Kitchen. After all, Gu Zheng didn't use any magic to make the 'mushroom soup' that time, but this time's 'mushroom soup' could make the mushrooms taste even more delicious simply by using the Wood Control Technique.

After hearing Gu Zheng's answer, the old man in Tang suit thought thoughtfully for a while, and then motioned to the person behind him to lift the lid on the plate.

The plates were placed according to Gu Zheng's requirements, so the first dish the old man in Tang suit saw was the 'Charcoal-grilled Green Feathered Bird'.

"Hey, what kind of bird is this?"

The old man in Tang suit made a curious voice. The green-feathered sparrow had a crest on its head, and he could tell the difference at a glance.

"No wonder you said before that you have something better than quail. It turns out you were referring to this! What's its name?" asked the old man in Tang suit.

"Green-feathered bird." Gu Zheng said.

"This should be something produced in the Ruins of Shu, right? The ancient leader actually carries it with him. It seems that he also has space immortal weapons and the like. Emei is really different from before!"

The old man in Tang suit was not afraid of making people uncomfortable with what he said, and he still talked to himself "without any restraint". In this regard, Gu Zheng didn't say anything. He just felt that the old man in Tang suit was a little owed. He knew it and insisted on saying it.

"It is said that 'the birds in the sky belong to quail'. This can only be said to be a matter of knowledge. Just by smelling the meat of this green-feathered bird, I feel that it must taste better than quail."

After taking a deep sniff of the 'charcoal-grilled green bird', the old man in Tang suit took a bite and tore off a shred of meat.

A strange sound came from the green-feathered bird's burnt-yellow skin, and the rich aroma of meat spread as the skin tore. The old man in Tang suit opened his eyes wide and chewed the roasted meat in his mouth quickly.

After taking a mouthful of meat, the old man in Tang suit, without saying anything, immediately bit into the 'charcoal-grilled green-feathered bird' again.

Because he ate too fast, the tender meat juice in the green feathered bird overflowed from the corner of his mouth. The green feathered bird, which was originally only the size of two quails, was quickly eaten by the old man in Tang suit.

"Gudong."

Behind the old man in Tang suit, the sound of swallowing was not the first time. This sound was heard at least five times when he was enjoying the 'charcoal-grilled green bird'.

"I can't stop, I can't stop at all!"

Looking at the bones on the plate, the old man in Tang suit was still savoring the taste of 'charcoal grilled green bird'.

"In my life, I have eaten everything that flies in the sky, swims in the sea, and is something that most people have never eaten. Today's green-feathered bird is the most delicious meat I have ever eaten! This kind of food comes from Shu The high-quality meat in the market has a feeling that cannot be tasted in the outside world! "

The old man in Tang suit looked very emotional, but Gu Zheng just smiled. He understood that the reason why the old man in Tang suit praised Green Feather Bird so much was indeed true to a large extent, but there was still a sense of "rare things are valuable" factors in it. He just tasted the green feathered bird, which was only the second-best quality among the meat ingredients produced in Shuxu, not even ordinary.

"Master Gu, you are really good at cooking. Even though you only put salt in the roasted green bird, it doesn't taste very good! It doesn't have the taste of being marinated in advance. It just allows the salt to evenly absorb the flavor. I'm afraid only you cultivators have this kind of skill, right? In addition, grilled meat can retain water so well, I've seen it today!"

The old man in Tang suit wiped the corners of his mouth and motioned to the people behind him to open the lid of the second dish.

"Hey, it's fried pumpkin tips? I thought it was some kind of big dish!"

Having said that, the old man in Tang suit still couldn't wait to pick up the chopsticks, pick up a pumpkin tip and put it into his mouth.

It’s not surprising that the old man in Tang suit would have such a reaction. People nowadays, especially those whose houses are built in deep mountains, have a special fondness for things that are more natural. They also like Pursue the so-called health regimen. Pumpkin tips are a seasonal wild vegetable, and they themselves have certain medicinal value. If the old man in Tang suit doesn't like to eat them, he shouldn't have such wild vegetables in the kitchen refrigerator.

"tasty!"

A plate of 'vegetarian stir-fried pumpkin tips', the old man in Tang suit actually finished it all before opening his mouth, which shows his love for this kind of wild vegetable.

"Although the pumpkin tips are stir-fried, they still taste good. It's really memorable!" The old man in Tang suit paused for a moment, and for the first time, he looked at Gu Zheng with approval in his eyes: "I have to say, Master Gu is very capable. ! The pumpkin tips have actually been stored in the refrigerator for three days, and they have already aged. They were not so fresh anymore. I would have thrown them away today, but who would have thought that Master Gu would actually use them to make a dish? It's more fresh than fresh, which makes me have to say "good!"

For the old man in Tang suit to be so amazing, the intermediate wood control technique played a major role in the dish 'Vegetarian Stir-fried Pumpkin Tips'.

The lid of the third dish was opened. When the old man in Tang suit saw this dish, his expression was the dullest.

"This 'steamed seabass' looks and smells pretty average. It doesn't seem to be much different from the one made by the chef in the hotel."

The old man in Tang suit frowned slightly, picked up a small piece of fish with chopsticks and put it into his mouth. After eating, he picked it up twice and then put his chopsticks down.

Seeing the old man in Tang suit, Elder Wuchou's face turned cold. He felt that the old man in Tang suit was looking for trouble.

"The meat is very tender and smooth. This dish is indeed more delicious than the one made by the chef in the hotel, but it is not as delicious as the previous two dishes and one soup, which gave me the amazing feeling. "

The serious expression on the face of the old man in Tang suit made even Gu Zheng wonder, is he going to cause trouble while serving this dish?

"However, the heat of this 'steamed seabass' is well controlled, the meat is tender and tender, and the soup is also very good. Although it didn't give me a surprising feeling, it is still delicious in ordinary times. Delicious food.”

The expression of the old man in Tang suit is still so serious, even though this dish has met his standards! And when he evaluated the 'Steamed Bass' with such an expression, Elder Wuyou, who had already breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, still wanted to beat him up to relieve his anger.

There was only the last dish left. When the person behind him opened the lid, the old man in Tang suit once again made a surprised sound: "Cold radish skin?"

"Bian radish skin and white radish skin look red, green and white, but this..."

The old man in Tang suit hesitated to speak. He had never eaten the 'Cold Radish Skin' before. His first impression of this dish was not good at all.

The old man in Tang suit picked up a piece of radish skin with slight disgust and put it into his mouth. He made a very crisp sound when chewing it.

As he continued chewing, the disgust on the old man's face disappeared and was replaced by surprise. After swallowing the first piece of radish skin, he tasted the second and third pieces in succession! Then, he went back to taste the 'steamed seabass' from before, and the amazement in his eyes became even stronger.

In just a moment, the 'Cold Carrot Slices' that were originally disliked by the old man in Tang suit, and even the 'Steamed Sea Bass' that he had just tasted before, were all wiped out by him.

"Wonderful, really wonderful!"

After swallowing the last piece of radish skin, the old man in Tang suit couldn't wait to speak and at the same time extended his thumb towards Gu Zheng.

"Is this the so-called transformation of decay into magic? I never thought that radish skin could be so delicious when eaten cold. Why do two kinds of radishes that are not too fresh feel so fresh in your hands? Slightly spicy, but crisp and refreshing, especially after eating meat, or It is eaten with meat, it is so delicious! No wonder the headmaster Gu asked for the order before serving it, it turns out that there is such a meaning in it!" The old man in Tang suit paused and then said: " But I think this 'Cold Radish Slices' will taste better if it is placed behind the grilled green bird."

"Put it behind the 'charcoal grilled green bird', the aroma of the meat, the freshness of the radish skin, and the stimulating taste of the two meeting each other, just for a moment, will soon neutralize and disappear. But put it on the 'steamed sea bass' At the back, the taste of two relatively simple dishes will complement each other. ”

Although it was the first time for Gu Zheng to make the 'Charcoal Grilled Green Bird', 'Steamed Sea Bass' and 'Cold Radish Slices', and he had never tasted them before, his understanding of the ingredients was beyond ordinary people, allowing him to cook them without tasting them. You can imagine how they taste when they meet.

"Awesome!" The old man in Tang suit pointed out his thumb again: "I used to think that I was good at eating, but the meal I had today and the words you said made me feel that I was just something I had eaten. It’s just more.”

"It seems that the four dishes and one soup have satisfied you. In that case, shouldn't it be time for you to tell me the whereabouts of Wu Chen Gu Mu?" Gu Zheng asked.

"Yes, the four dishes and one soup really satisfy me. Our hostility has turned into friendship and we are now friends. It's time for me, Zhao Wen, to tell you the whereabouts of Wu Chen Gu Mu as promised. However, I still have an unkind request. , I wonder if Master Gu can agree?"

The old man in Tang suit showed his sincerity in turning conflicts into friendship and took the initiative to say his name.

"Tell me what the unkind invitation is." Gu Zheng said.

"When can I taste the delicious food made by the ancient master again?" Zhao Wen looked forward to it with hope.

"If the information you give me can help me successfully obtain the ancient Wuchen wood, if you go to Emei Pai within a month, I will make food for you again."

Zhao Wen spoke politely, and Gu Zheng's tone softened a bit. However, detente does not mean agreeing to everything the other party says. Whether or not Zhao Wen will be given another delicious meal depends on whether the follow-up affairs will go smoothly and depends on his mood.

"Okay, as long as the words of the ancient leader are enough."

Zhao Wen laughed, and then told Gu Zheng the whereabouts of Wu Chen Gu Mu.

Many years ago, Zhao Wen got a large dark-stained ancient wood. The dark-stained ancient wood was eventually divided into two parts. One part was used as the longevity tree of the Zhao family, and the other part was kept by the Qingcheng Sect.

Already knowing the whereabouts of Wuchen Gumu, Gu Zheng did not stay in the Zhao Mansion for too long. He took Elder Wuchou with him and returned to the sect first.

Although the Qingcheng Sect is not far from Emei, after all, repairing the Chaos Tower tomorrow will still require the blood and immortal power of Gu Zheng. The search for the ancient Wu Chen wood can only be done after the Chaos Tower is finished tomorrow.

The ancient dark wood is actually the extremely expensive "gloomy wood". However, the trees that form this "gloomy wood" can no longer be seen on the earth today. Its name is called dark wood.

The coffin made of dark-stained ancient wood is much better than the coffin of golden nanmu, and it can prevent the body inside from rotting. For refining weapons, ancient black-stained wood is also a rare material. The Kunlun Sect has a relatively famous fairy weapon, the main material of which is ancient black-stained wood.
