Chapter 567 Blessings From Heaven and Earth
The fish offal in the pot was soon cooked. Gu Zheng lifted the lid of the roasted fish and poured the soup in the pot into it along with the fish offal.
"Boom..."
A strange sound was heard, and the white mist produced by the collision of the fish offal and the fish meat actually flew up in the shape of a mushroom cloud.
Gu Zheng quickly covered the lid of the plate, and then continued to use the water control method on the dragon beard fish in the plate, which needed to be the finishing touch.
"It smells so good!"
"Gudong!"
Miao Miao and Lian Yuxin finally woke up from the mushroom cloud bombing until Gu Zheng finished his work.
"It's so special, sir!" Miao Miao said.
"How special is it?" Gu Zheng asked with a smile.
"The fragrance just now was like a cultivator smelling the rice milk you cooked. If you take a deep sniff, you will faint!" Miao Miao said.
"What about the fragrance now?"
Gu Zheng laughed, and the fragrance now, although not a mushroom cloud, has been so strong that it has covered the entire plate.
"The current fragrance, although not as stimulating as before, is more appetizing. Compared with the two, the former is like strong liquor, and the latter is like aged wine!" Meow Meow said.
"What a good aged wine! Let's go, dinner is ready!"
Gu Zheng personally carried the plate and walked to the private room inside the Jixiang Xiaozhu.
Only the Yang family girl was honest and waited in the private room in a proper manner. When Gu Zheng and Meow Meow entered, she wiped off a little saliva from the corner of her mouth in embarrassment.
"Gurgle..."
The Yang family girl's stomach made a sound.
"Young Master, don't let me wait here next time. Let me help! Looking at the dishes that have been prepared on the table, smelling the fragrance from the kitchen, and listening to your laughter, I think this is simply the cruelest punishment in the world." The Yang family girl said with a bitter face.
"Okay, I won't keep you waiting next time. Let's eat!" As soon as Gu Zheng finished speaking, the Yang family girl was busy serving the rice, while Miaomiao and Lian Yuxin quickly opened the lid of the three dishes and one soup on the table. "Isn't it too partial?" Gu Zheng, who was about to open the lid of the grilled fish, looked at the three women who were staring at the grilled fish and no longer looked at the three dishes and one soup on the table. "No way!" "I've seen it all!" "To be honest, this grilled fish is the most fragrant and I'm looking forward to it the most!" The three women laughed and laughed, but Gu Zheng rolled his eyes. "Hehe, today there are three dishes and one soup plus staple food, and a grilled fish weighing more than six pounds. You three foodies will be so full!" Gu Zheng snorted and laughed while opening the grilled fish with the lid on. There was thick fog outside the lid, and there was also thick fog inside the lid. The two streams quickly merged and drilled into the grilled fish. "Wow!"
The three women exclaimed at the same time. They never thought that the grilled fish would be placed on the plate like a whole fish. Moreover, the fish scales that had gone through several processes were now attached to the grilled fish one by one as if they had not been processed. The original fish offal and jade meat slices were gone. It was definitely wrapped in the fish belly.
The golden fish, the milky white soup, and the extremely fragrant dragon beard fish actually pushed the body of the grilled fish, and the grilled fish seemed to be alive. It twisted its body left and right on the plate, and its mouth opened and closed.
"Foodies, don't be stupid, let's eat?"
Gu Zheng picked up his chopsticks while speaking and accurately picked up a dragon ball.
The so-called dragon ball is the fish eye. After the fish is cooked, the dragon ball will become hard and there is no way to eat it. However, the dragon beard fish is different. Its dragon balls will not become hard after being cooked. Most of the immortal essence in a fish is condensed in two dragon balls.
"The remaining dragon ball is a reward for Miaomiao."
Gu Zheng said before putting the dragon ball into his mouth.
"Great!"
Miaomiao, who didn't know that dragon balls were delicious, saw that Gu Zheng had left one for her and immediately knew that it was a treasure, quickly took the other dragon ball away, as if someone would snatch it away if she was slow.
Gu Zheng had put the dragon ball into his mouth, and the fragrant and smooth taste was accompanied by a stimulating spicy taste.
With a light bite of his teeth, the soup, which was many times more delicious than fish soup, entered Gu Zheng's mouth, and at the same time, it also brought a sudden immortal essence.
The soup in the dragon ball does have the ingredients of fish soup, but more of it is the essence of the dragon ball itself. The delicious taste that is different from meat makes Gu Zheng's intoxicated head shake slightly.
With Gu Zheng's current cultivation, the immortal essence contained in a high-quality ingredient is no longer a big deal, but since the immortal essence in the dragon ball has already entered his stomach, Gu Zheng also thought about it and let the immortal power ball hang to absorb it.
"Really good!"
After swallowing a dragon ball, Gu Zheng was very impressed. Its deliciousness is not only due to its special soup, but also the crispy taste and fragrance of the shell.
The first chopsticks picked up the dragon ball, and the second chopsticks Gu Zheng picked up the fish tail.
The fish tail of ordinary fish can also be eaten, but there is nothing to eat. However, the fish tail of the dragon beard fish is different. The meat on its tail is thick, a bit like a duck's web.
The dragon beard fish is full of treasures, of course, including the fish bones, which have been roasted by Gu Zheng. Put it in your mouth and it will break into pieces when you chew it. Coupled with the slightly chewy fish tail meat, the taste is really amazing.
"Sir, is the fish tail delicious?"
Meow Meow asked vaguely while eating the fish meat.
"It's delicious! After all, there are bones in it, so there is a bone fragrance that meat doesn't have. It feels great!"
After Gu Zheng finished speaking, he picked up a piece of fish scale and a piece of fish meat for the third time.
The white and tender fish meat and golden fish scales were put into Gu Zheng's mouth, and the spicy taste immediately filled his mouth.
The fish meat of the dragon beard fish is firm and tender. The fragrance in the mouth at first is the unique taste of fruit wood grilled fish, followed by the taste of spicy fish meat, and because the grade of the ingredients has reached excellent, it makes people's mouth full of freshness and fragrance.
The fish scales and fish meat are together. When tasting the fish meat, you will naturally taste the fish scales.
After the dragon beard fish scales are processed and cooked by Gu Zheng, the wonderful taste is a bit like cartilage, very chewy, and it tastes different when eaten with the tender fish meat.
Gu Zheng only moved his chopsticks three times, and the dragon beard fish on the plate had been eaten by three foodies, revealing the fish bones and the fish debris in the fish belly.
Gu Zheng passed the chopsticks through the fish bones and picked up a piece of fish roe.
The fish roe was wrapped with egg liquid and flour. It was fried first and then stewed. Gu Zheng put it in his mouth and sucked it. He sucked a lot of the surface of the soup, and it melted in his mouth, feeling very delicious.
The existence of the surface layer ensures the freshness of the fish roe. When Gu Zheng bit it with his teeth, the taste of the fish roe lingering between his teeth was very wonderful.
There was no fishy smell of ordinary fish roe at all, but a different fresh fragrance with the taste of green onion and ginger. When you first taste it, it's just the taste of the fish roe itself. After chewing it a few times, the spicy taste that blends into each fish roe stands out, and it is intertwined with the fragrance in your mouth.
"So spicy, so spicy!"
The food was so delicious and spicy that the Yang family girl, who couldn't eat spicy food, screamed immediately, but she still kept stuffing the fish into her mouth.
"If it's spicy, just eat the jade lotus root slices inside." Gu Zheng said.
In order to take care of Miao Miao, Gu Zheng did add a lot of soft peppercorns to this grilled fish. As for the jade lotus root slices, it was to take care of the Yang family girl who couldn't eat spicy food.
"Crunch, crunch!"
The green lotus root slices made a crisp sound in the Yang family girl's mouth, and a hint of elegant fragrance immediately floated out with her breath. The burning sensation in her mouth disappeared as she chewed the lotus root slices, leaving only a sweet and cool taste that made people salivate.
"Haha, with these lotus root slices, I'm not afraid of spicy food anymore!"
The Yang family girl smiled and ate the fish again.
The fourth time Gu Zheng picked up his chopsticks, he picked up a piece of "dragon beard" of the dragon beard fish.
For the whole roasted dragon beard fish, everyone may have a favorite part, but for Gu Zheng, the most unique part must be the dragon ball and the 'dragon beard'.
The dragon beard tastes a bit like tendon, very chewy. Every time you chew it, the fragrance in your mouth seems to change differently, and the fresh and fragrant taste is unique.
Gu Zheng picked up the chopsticks for the fifth time, and it was the fish maw.
The taste of ordinary fish maw is very chewy, but the fish maw of the dragon beard fish is not so tough after being processed by Gu Zheng. In one dish, there is already a tough taste of dragon beard, so Gu Zheng doesn't want a second thing with the same taste.
When Gu Zheng put the fish maw into his mouth to taste it, Miaomiao couldn't help but speak.
"Sir, you are right, the fish maw and fish intestines this time are really great."
Gu Zheng opened his eyes, chewing the food without speaking, but signaled Miaomiao with his eyes to continue.
"I won't talk about fish intestines. Wait for you to taste it yourself. I will talk about fish maw. I have eaten fish maw cooked by you before, but the taste of that fish maw is not as fragrant, crispy and smooth as it is now. And it is really fragrant and spicy when chewed!" Meow Meow said.
Gu Zheng smiled. Meow Meow was right. The taste of fish maw is really great. Although it has changed from the original toughness to crispy, this unique taste also brings a unique spicy taste, just like the taste of 'dragon whiskers', which is the kind that the more you chew, the more fragrant it is.
Gu Zheng picked up his chopsticks for the sixth time. This time he picked up a fish intestine.
Ordinary fish intestines can actually be eaten, but most people dislike it or are too lazy to clean it. Because the dragon whisker fish lives in the prehistoric space, the fish intestines are relatively clean. In addition, due to the grade of its own ingredients, its fish intestines are unique even if cooked by ordinary people, not to mention Gu Zheng, a fairy chef.
There is no fishy smell. After chewing the fish intestines, there is only a fresh fragrance.
The fresh fragrance of fish intestines is different from other parts of dragon beard fish. It is a kind of fresh fragrance that is fat but not greasy. When this fresh fragrance is mixed with the spiciness of soft peppercorns and bursts in the mouth, it feels like eating a piece of meat after being hungry for a few days. Don't mention how satisfied it is.
Gu Zheng was intoxicated with the delicious food, while Shang Wen and Tian Yunxiu flew out of a cave with gray faces.
After flying a long way in the air, the two looked back in the direction of the cave, and when they breathed a sigh of relief, they looked at each other with bitter smiles and relief in their eyes.
Shang Wen and Tian Yunxiu had just gone to see Xuanming Patriarch, but Xuanming Patriarch scolded them for not doing their job well, and taught them a lesson and let them go.
Shang Wen, Tian Yunxiu and Patriarch Xuan Ming knew each other when they were in the ancient times, but at that time Shang Wen and Tian Yunxiu were members of the sect, while Patriarch Xuan Ming was a casual cultivator.
Although they knew each other, they did not have much friendship with each other before. After arriving on Earth, Ancestor Xuan Ming relied on his cultivation that was already at the peak of returning to the void to boss Shang Wen and Tian Yunxiu around.
This time they offended Gu Zheng and did things poorly. Shang Wen and Tian Yunxiu knew that it was inevitable to be insulted and taught by Patriarch Xuanming when they returned. But if Patriarch Xuanming had a grudge against Gu Zheng in this matter, If you want to connect them to cause trouble for Gu Zheng, then they won't agree to anything.
After Patriarch Xuan Ming found out what happened, he was furious and really wanted to join them to find trouble in Gu Zheng! Having prepared for this in advance, Shang Wen and Tian Yunxiu said they would not agree to anything, even if they fought against Ancestor Xuan Ming for it.
Although Patriarch Xuan Ming is at the peak level of returning to the void, Shang Wen and Tian Yunxiu are also at the late stage of returning to the void. But if he really wants to take action, although he can kill Shang Wen and Tian Yunxiu, he can't kill himself. It is inevitable to pay a high price! Therefore, Ancestor Xuanming did not dare to go too far.
"After going through this incident, we have finally drawn a clear line with Ancestor Xuanming. It's worth it!" Shang Wen looked at the wounds on his body and said with a bitter smile.
"Well, it's worth it!"
Tian Xiuying said in a paused voice: "However, with the arrogance of Patriarch Xuanming, he will definitely cause trouble for Gu Zheng in this matter."
"If he insists on finding trouble with Gu Zheng regardless of life and death, then let him do it. Anyway, he looks down on the immortal cultivators on earth. Letting them suffer once can be regarded as revenge for us." Shang Wen said harshly. .
At the same time, in the cave of Patriarch Xuanming.
Ancestor Xuan Ming's cultivation has reached the peak of returning to the void. It is useless for him to increase his energy and food cultivation, because at this stage of cultivation, what is needed for promotion is not immortal energy, but a mysterious understanding.
The reason why Patriarch Xuan Ming asked Shang Wen, who had a special blood, to go to Jixiang Xiaozhu to bring out a high-grade Yuan-increasing food repair was actually because he was entrusted by someone, and the person who entrusted him made a very generous promise to him. In return, there was something he desperately needed.
If the top-grade Zengyuan Food Cultivator had not been brought back, Patriarch Xuanming would not only break his trust, but also not get what he urgently needed, so his hatred for Guzheng was very strong.
The hatred for Gu Zheng, coupled with the unprecedented resistance of Shang Wen and Tian Yunxiu, made the ancestor Xuan Ming almost explode at this moment.
"Gu Zheng, right? In this world, you seem to be very arrogant! Okay, let me not get what I want, right? If I don't go to Wufeng Island to cause destruction tomorrow, I, the fourth ancestor of Xuanming, will The characters are written backwards!" Ancestor Xuan Ming said bitterly.
The next day, in the afternoon.
Jixiang Xiaozhu’s business today is pretty good. From morning to now, it has completed four qualified orders.
In the kitchen, Gu Zheng is busy with the fifth order of business.
"According to the recent momentum, you will be able to complete sixty qualified orders in a month and a half at most." Qi Ling said.
"If 60 orders of business are completed ahead of schedule, do I still need to continue the Xianchu store?" Gu Zheng asked.
"After the mission is completed, it is completely up to you whether you want to continue opening the Xianchu shop or not." Qi Ling said with a smile.
"If it were my freedom, I would not open it when the time comes. At that time, there is not much time left before the Ghost Festival. I plan to return to the sect and practice well in the next time. one time."
While he was talking, Gu Zheng had already cooked a dish, and Miao Miao immediately picked it up and gave it to the guests.
Lian Yuxin is not here today. The weapon refining business she took over has two urgent orders, and she is also busy shipping them.
Gu Zheng quickly cleaned up the kitchen utensils and prepared for the next dish. This fifth order is for eight dishes and two soups, and Gu Zheng has only completed three dishes now.
After a while.
"Huh?"
Gu Zheng, who was cooking, suddenly made a curious sound because he felt abnormal fluctuations in the energy of heaven and earth.
"Blessings from heaven and earth?"
Gu Zheng and Qi Ling made curious sounds at the same time, because the abnormal energy fluctuations in the world were indeed as if someone had advanced in cultivation and had a strange phenomenon occur in the sky.
"The abnormal fluctuations in the energy of heaven and earth originated from Wufeng Island, and now there is only one person on Wufeng Island who is most likely to cause such anomalies!"
Gu Zheng was a little excited and wanted to go out and take a look, but with business in hand, he could only take care of business first.
"gentlemen!"
Miaomiao outside also felt the fluctuations in the energy of the world. She looked at Gu Zheng and said, "With the fluctuations in the energy of the world, does the angry man want to advance?"
"It should be him!" Gu Zheng nodded.
On Ziyan Island, both Miao Miao and Angry Man ate the beast spirit food cultivation made by Gu Zheng, and then both began to retreat.
"Tsk, tsk, I hope Angry Man will become stronger! After all, he slept longer than me this time!" Miao Miao smiled maliciously.
After the angry man recognized himself as the master of Gu Zheng, he gave Miaomiao a lot of training. This time, he slept longer than Miaomiao. This made Miaomiao decide that after he received the blessing of heaven and earth, he must train with him again. Practice and see what kind of progress he has made.
"Hopefully!"
Gu Zheng smiled slightly. The longer the sleep time before the demon cultivator advanced, the better. Angry Man slept longer than Meow Meow this time. He really looked forward to Angry Man being able to skip levels like Meow Meow.
"Sir, I want to go over and have a look!" Meow Meow said pitifully.
"No, we are doing business, and we must put business first."
As soon as Gu Zheng's words of rejection came to light, the guest's spiritual message rang in his mind: "Master Gu, please send someone a bottle of lotus wine."
"The guest ordered the fairy wine, go and deliver it!"
Gu Zheng shrugged at Miaomiao.
"All right!"
Miao Miao reluctantly left the kitchen and kept looking at the place where the angry man was retreating.
