Chapter 572 Dragon and Phoenix (Part 2)
When the Yang family girl left, she had already placed Wang Letian's order on the table. Gu Zheng glanced at the order and said, "It depends on the ingredients you gave."
Gu Zheng's expression was very calm, which made Wang Letian feel a little guilty. After all, he had already heard about Gu Zheng's reputation.
"Then, can you think of these ingredients?"
Wang Letian took out a lot of ingredients from his mustard bag.
Gu Zheng glanced at Wang Letian's ingredients and frowned: "The four dishes you ordered, the ingredients are all medium-grade at the lowest level. And for the resources you are giving now, the ingredients with the highest level are only medium-grade." , are you kidding me?"
"Guban, I don't need you to make it the same as the menu, as long as you use these ingredients to make it look similar."
Seeing Gu Zheng closing his eyes and feeling like he didn't want to talk anymore, Wang Letian looked very anxious. He was already showing off in front of his two stoves, but if Gu Zheng didn't cook it for him, then he would have to show off. After all, the menu also had pictures of the dishes.
Hearing what Wang Letian said, Gu Zheng understood what was going on. After all, Wang Letian brought two mortals here, and now he has used such careful thoughts. It is undoubtedly like showing off in front of two women. .
"I really want to satisfy you, but the ingredients you gave me are too low-quality. I can't ruin the reputation of my extremely fragrant house just to satisfy you."
Gu Zheng was a little amused by Wang Letian's starting point, and he seemed very kind when he spoke.
"Otherwise, how about I add some good things to the ancient board? Wanwang Ancient Board Chengquan is here! As for ruining the reputation of Jixiang Xiaozhu, this is not the case. My two furnace cauldrons are just mortals. I have no knowledge at all. I will also tell them that what I ordered for them is a special dish that has never been made by Jixiang Xiaozhu. Can't you just tell them that it is just the ones on the menu?" Wang Letian looked at me pleadingly. Fighting over the past.
"Special dish? This is really a title with a double meaning!"
Gu Zheng shook his head, smiled, and said with a serious look: "That won't work. Jixiang Xiaozhu has no precedent for this. If you have to eat here to show your dignity, then order a few dishes on the first page of the menu. ! Although the ingredients used in those dishes are not of high quality, the taste is guaranteed to be good. ”
"I don't!"
Wang Letian said anxiously: "I have already told them to order whatever they want. If we change the dishes again, they don't know what they will think of me!"
Gu Zheng was also speechless. He really wondered what the relationship between those two women was with Wang Letian. Could it be a relationship between lovers? Otherwise, how could you care so much.
"Old man, otherwise it will be like this!"
Wang Letian gritted his teeth and said: "I have a few rare objects here, which I collected in my early years. They are all things that only existed in the ancient times. Let me add one or two more. Can you help me with this?" "
While talking, Wang Letian took out another small box from Mustard Seed's pocket. There were six resources in the box, and he took two of them back.
The six resources all looked ugly, but among them was a black bone that Wang Letian took back. Gu Zheng's eyes lit up when he saw it. What is this if not the Moyun Beast bone that is urgently needed to repair the Chaos Tower?
"These four resources are not very good, but the bone you took back is a bit interesting. If you give it to me, I can satisfy your previous request." Gu Zheng said.
When he heard that Gu Zheng wanted that bone, Wang Letian shook his head like a rattle: "Everything else is fine, except that bone!"
"That's just a piece of Moyun Beast Bone. Compared with your other resources, the price is a bit cheaper. I don't know why you are willing to trade with me for the other resources but not the Moyun Beast Bone." What?" Gu Zheng asked curiously.
"There are mysterious characters carved on the bones of the Moyun beast. There must be some incredible magical skills recorded in them. I bought them from a golden immortal at a huge price." Wang Letian said seriously.
Gu Zheng was stunned for a moment, then laughed: "After all, you have returned to the virtual realm, let's put it this way! Do you know how to refine weapons?"
"I know a little bit about it." Wang Letian said awkwardly.
"After all, the characters engraved on it are not recording any extraordinary magic. It is just an inscription that can make the magic weapon more powerful. It's just that this kind of inscription is not very common."
During the period of contact with Lian Yuxin, Gu Zheng's knowledge about weapon refining also increased a lot.
Seeing that Wang Letian seemed to be frowning and thinking after hearing this, Gu Zheng said again: "If it is really an incredible magic, do you think the Golden Immortal will sell it to you?"
It has been three hundred years since Wang Letian obtained this piece of Moyun Beast Bone. He had not realized anything, and he already had doubts about what the Golden Immortal said.
Now, although Wang Letian was not completely convinced by Gu Zheng's statement, it also made him plan to take action against the Moyun Beast Bones.
"It's not impossible for the old man to want this piece of Moyun beast bone, but you have to make the dishes I ordered as I asked before. In addition, I have other conditions!" Wang Letian was trying to get the best for himself. interests.
Gu Zheng frowned: "Moyun Beast Bone happens to be useful to me, so I gave you a special case, but after all, it is only a fifth-grade resource. If you go too far, I won't want it. What you asked for before , so naturally I gave up!”
Originally, he wanted the lion to open his mouth, but when he saw Gu Zheng's resolute look, Wang Letian didn't dare to speak out his original thoughts.
"Okay, Guban! In addition to the original request, there is another soup that I haven't ordered yet. How about Guban give me a similar soup and let me stay and watch you cook?"
Wang Letian smiled very flatteringly, and there was a negotiable meaning in his voice, but after finally seeing the ancient struggle of Moyun Beast Bones, he didn't mind it anymore.
"I can give you another soup, or I can ask you to stay and watch, but don't talk too much! And, you can only stay and watch one dish. After all, this is the center of the kitchen." Gu Zheng said.
"Okay, we must abide by the old master's requirements." Wang Letian nodded hurriedly.
"Do you have fairy grass there?" Gu Zheng asked.
"Fairy Wind Grass? What is Fairy Wind Grass?" Wang Letian asked confused.
"Forget it." Gu Zheng shook his head.
Immortal wind grass is also a fifth-grade resource, but Wang Letian doesn't even know what fairy wind grass is, and it seems that there won't be any anymore.
Without saying anything more to Wang Letian, Gu Zheng collected his resources and started preparing to cook for him.
"Sir, this dish contains 'dragon and phoenix presenting auspiciousness', how are you going to cook it for him?" Miao Miao said via voice transmission.
The traditional 'dragon and phoenix present auspiciousness' is a very expensive dish. In addition to using medium ingredients, it also uses high-grade ingredients.
"According to what he said, use some lower-grade ingredients to replace the original high-grade ingredients. When serving the food, just say that it is specially made for them." Gu Zheng said.
The traditional 'dragon and phoenix present auspiciousness' requires two kinds of fairy vegetables, fairy cloud pork, crystal lobster, fairy duck, fire cloud fairy mushroom and some auxiliary ingredients.
"The ancient plate, 'dragon and phoenix present auspiciousness', I want the flavor of the food, not the original flavor of the food."
Wang Letian made a request, and in Jixiang Xiaozhu, such a request is a normal request, and some changes can be made according to the guest's preferences.
In response to Wang Letian's request, Gu Zheng nodded and then began to process the ingredients.
Since the opening of Jixiang Xiaozhu, the menu has gone through several changes. Due to the improvement of cooking skills and the abundance of ingredients, Gu Zheng has added many more dishes to it, such as the current dish of 'dragon and phoenix presenting auspiciousness', then It is a dish that is not on the original menu.
"Guban, does this 'dragon and phoenix present auspiciousness' only have these three main ingredients?"
After waiting for a while, when Gu Zheng didn't bring out new ingredients, Wang Letian couldn't help but ask.
"Yes, with the resources you gave me, I can use these ingredients for cooking, which is already pretty good." Gu Zheng said.
This time, Gu Zheng is only going to use a fairy duck, an ice-water lobster, some fairy bean sprouts and some seasonings for the 'dragon and phoenix'. However, these ingredients are indeed a lot less than the original 'dragon and phoenix'. , but as he said, compared with the resources given by Wang Letian, it was already very good for him to use these ingredients to cook a 'Dragon and Phoenix Presenting Auspiciousness' for Wang Letian.
"All right!"
Wang Letian wanted to say something, but was afraid that Gu Zheng would be angry, so Wang Letian didn't dare to say more.
Gu Zheng put auxiliary ingredients into the belly of the processed fairy duck, then placed it on the charcoal fire and started roasting it using the fire control technique. Duck is relatively fat and tender, but if there is too much oil, it will also affect the taste. Therefore, Gu Zheng handles the step of roasting and removing oil very carefully.
After a while, the fat dripped from the tender fairy duck, making a sizzling sound, and the aroma of roast duck filled the kitchen.
"Gudong..."
This was just roasting duck, and Wang Letian couldn't help but swallow his saliva. He suddenly felt that maybe it was a mistake to stay and watch the cooking. This was not to monitor whether Gu Zheng would mess around, but to make trouble for himself and torture himself!
At this time, Gu Zheng brushed a layer of Lightning Bee's honey on the fairy duck. The rich aroma suddenly became slightly sweeter, making it even more appetizing.
Under the stimulation of the Fire Control Technique, the surface of the Immortal Duck was quickly covered with a layer of golden color, as if honey was flowing on it, making it look crystal clear and bright.
"laugh……"
Gu Zheng removed the fairy duck from the charcoal fire, and then used the water control technique to generate cold air and sprayed it on the fairy duck.
I saw that after the fairy duck encountered the cold air, the liquid-like honey quickly entered the duck skin, making the entire duck skin golden and translucent, and the white and tender duck meat underneath could be seen through it. At this moment, the flavor of spices hidden in the duck's belly also came out, mixed with the sweet aroma of the original roast duck, teasing Wang Letian's sense of smell.
Moreover, Wang Letian also discovered that there seemed to be a stream of soup in the duck's belly. It seemed to be the meat juice that oozed out when the fairy duck was roasted. It was mixed with the spices in the duck's belly, and it was showing a hint of soup. A very fresh taste.
"Gudong..."
He was already very careful, but Wang Letian still couldn't help swallowing and carefully wiped the corners of his mouth. Fortunately, Gu Zheng was busy cooking, and Miao Miao was looking at Gu Zheng intently. No one seemed to notice his embarrassment.
"Shuashuashua..."
A flash of sword light flashed in Gu Zheng's hand. The fairy duck seemed to be the same fairy duck as before, but the duck bones had been picked out by Gu Zheng and put aside. Wang Letian even saw that in that moment of sword light, the duck meat and duck skin had been completely separated, and some of the duck meat was even chopped into minced meat by Gu Zheng.
After handling the fairy duck, Gu Zheng put it on a plate and set it aside.
Then, Gu Zheng put the shelled ice-water lobster and the headless fairy bean sprouts into another pot. What is boiling in the pot is aniseed water, which was already boiling when Gu Zheng roasted duck.
The ice-water lobster and fairy bean sprouts were just soaked in the aniseed water for a while and then fished out by Gu Zheng.
The fairy bean sprouts were placed directly on the plate with roast duck, while the ice-water lobster was processed under the flash of Gu Zheng's sword and then put on the plate.
"Bang bang bang bang..."
Under the control of Gu Zhengxianli, the plate with roast duck seemed to come alive, dancing restlessly on the chopping board.
After a while, Gu Zheng removed his palms from the plate, and then looked at Wang Letian: "This dish is ready, you can leave the kitchen."
"Is this, is this okay?"
Gu Zheng's voice made Wang Le's eyes widen. Although Xianchu's cooking was extraordinary, Gu Zheng's cooking seemed to be a bit too casual.
"Isn't this enough?"
Gu Zheng frowned, and Wang Letian suddenly woke up. No matter how you say it, this place is a very fragrant building. He was a little scared and didn't dare to ask any more questions. He had to put on a smile and follow Miao Miao out of the kitchen.
"Master, why have you been gone for so long?"
The two women in the private room said in unison with sweet voices.
Wang Letian looked at the two women coldly: "Did it take that long? This is cooking done by the Immortal Chef. It's already very fast. How long do you think it would take you two foodies to cook such a dish?"
Wang Letian, who had lowered his posture at Gu Zheng just now, vented some of his unhappiness on the two women.
"It must have taken us longer than that!"
The two women talked quickly. With charming smiles on their faces, they leaned on Wang Letian's arms, one on the left and the other on the right, and rubbed there again and again like a baby.
Feeling the softness on his arms and looking at the flattering smiles of the two women, Wang Letian's anger was relieved a lot.
"Come on, let me show you this dish!" Wang Letian said.
"What kind of dish is this?" the woman in black asked.
"This dish is called 'Dragon and Phoenix Presenting Auspiciousness', and it is a special dish for you!"
Miao Miao smiled mysteriously, and then walked out of the private room.
"Wow, a special dish? That must be really good!"
The woman in black was very excited, and even the woman in white had her eyes shining. In their understanding, specially made things must be good things.
"That's right, or it's specially made?"
Wang Letian laughed, very proud of him for making a 'special' request.
The lid on the plate was opened by Wang Letian, and the elegant room was suddenly filled with a slightly sweet fragrance.
"It smells good!"
"Yes, I have never smelled such a good smell. Just smelling it makes me drool!"
The two women in black and white clothes exclaimed.
"Where are we now? Even Ji Xiang's transformation hasn't appeared yet!"
Listening to the two women's exclamations, Wang Letian felt a great sense of accomplishment, as if he had cooked the dish.
"Yes, Jixiang's transformation hasn't even appeared yet!"
The two women looked very excited. After all, they had heard from Wang Letian's mouth what the extremely fragrant transformation was.
The originally rich white mist on the plate condensed and quickly transformed into the shape of a mini dragon and a phoenix. They were flying back and forth around the food on the plate.
For Gu Zheng, the task of "Xianchu Restaurant Small Trial" has also made him make great progress in cooking. He has a deeper understanding of Tao, and it also allows him to control the shape of extremely fragrant food. things.
In the past, Gu Zheng had no ability to control Jixiang's transformation, and the things that Jixiang transformed must be related to certain foods in the dishes. But nowadays, the extremely fragrant form does not have to be intrinsically related to food, as long as it is related in artistic conception. Otherwise, the extremely fragrant thing in this dish would be either fairy duck or lobster, which would be different from the artistic conception of "dragon and phoenix present auspiciousness".
"Master, is this what you call Jixiang's transformation? It's really amazing!"
The woman in white looked at the dragon and phoenix on the plate and murmured stupidly.
"Gudong..."
The woman in black swallowed a big mouthful of saliva and said impatiently: "Master, can I eat it?"
"I just know how to eat it! Don't you feel ashamed to eat such a beautiful dish without appreciating it?"
Wang Letian yelled at the woman in black, and then marveled at the 'dragon and phoenix presenting auspiciousness'. In fact, Wang Letian was also very greedy, but in front of women, he still had to behave like a master.
As for Wang Letian, before he opened the plate, he had some doubts about Gu Zheng's cooking skills. But now, looking at the 'dragon and phoenix in auspiciousness' on the plate, Wang Letian only has admiration in his heart.
The ice-water lobster meat is wrapped in roast duck skin to form the body of the dragon. As for the dragon head and other details, it is made of minced shrimp meat and duck skin.
Next to the golden dragon is a silver phoenix. The body of the phoenix is made of roast duck meat. The crystal bean sprouts on it constitute the feathers of the phoenix. As for the details such as the phoenix head and phoenix feet, they are made of minced Shaped duck meat.
"It's really wonderful. Who would have thought that seemingly simple ingredients can be turned into such eye-catching food in the hands of the fairy chef!"
Wang Letian sighed after admiring enough, and then picked up the chopsticks: "Come, let's taste this 'dragon and phoenix presenting auspiciousness' together with the master!"
The golden dragon and silver phoenix looked like they were whole, but in fact they had just the right cuts. Wang Letian put his chopsticks down and picked up the dragon head and put it in his mouth.
"Um!"
As soon as the dragon head entered his mouth, Wang Letian made an intoxicating sound.
The crispy duck skin with a little sweetness is wrapped with extremely tender ice water lobster meat, which is full of freshness when chewed.
"Master, this dish is delicious!"
"Yes! It's so delicious, I have never eaten such delicious food!"
Wang Letian's two furnace tripods, with food in their mouths, spoke vaguely.
"Of course, don't you see how much resources this dish cost me? This is enough for me to practice for a year!"
"Master, you are so nice!"
"I like you the most!"
Wang Letian's bragging was exchanged for the two women's full admiration and touching.
"Don't talk, concentrate on eating."
Wang Letian smiled carelessly, then picked up a few fairy bean sprouts and duck meat from Yinfeng and put them in his mouth.
"Hmm!"
The intoxicated voice sounded again, and the watery fairy bean sprouts burst in Wang Letian's mouth, mixed with the plump fairy duck meat, the taste was so good.
Sorry, I made a mistake yesterday, and there is another chapter today to apologize
