Chapter 768
After Gu Zheng entered the kitchen, Yun Songtao smiled bitterly and said to Wei Yang: "Shangxian has said before that he will not serve food that is not delicious! Now he is holding it so easily The ingredients have entered the kitchen, so Fellow Taoist Wei, even though the ingredients you brought are very good, I think we will still lose!”
"Anyway, you just want to complete the mission. It doesn't matter to you if you lose. As for the ingredients you lost, they are all my uncle's. There is no loss to you or me. Let's just wait and see the good show. That's it! Fellow Daoist Yun, to be honest, I really hope that you are the one who loses. If it is you who loses, it will be so shocking!" Wei Yang said with hopeful eyes.
Following Gu Zheng into the kitchen, Die Ling asked curiously: "Master, are these ingredients special? Why do they think they can make you lose? You are a super fairy chef with the Eye of Tao!"
Gu Zheng smiled at Butterfly Spirit: "Having the Eye of Tao is different from ordinary immortal chefs, but this does not mean that having the Eye of Tao can lead to unimpeded access to the way of eating! In the way of eating, there is a situation It is called 'fanghua' by Master Tie Xian, this situation is not within the visual range of the Eye of Tao!"
"'Instant Youth'? What a beautiful name! What kind of situation is this?" Die Ling asked curiously.
"'Instant Fragrance' is a variable that will appear when certain ingredients are cooked together. Under normal circumstances, the immortal chef with the Eye of Tao will be aware of all the detailed changes in the ingredients when they are being cooked. Things that are clear at a glance, even ingredients that have never been cooked can be understood Easily controlled. However, the appearance of 'Instant Fragrance' is almost invisible. When it appears, the change of ingredients has been completed in an instant, and this change is a destructive change. Once it appears, the dishes will not change! It’s completely destroyed, but it can no longer achieve the delicious taste it was supposed to have!”
After hearing what Gu Zheng said, Die Ling became even more curious: "This is really the 'Fanghua'! Judging from the master's cautious look, has the master not encountered 'Fanghua' before?"
"I have never really encountered 'Fanghua', but I have some understanding of 'Fanghua' in a cooking skill taught by Master Tiexian. As for the cooking skill I am talking about, it is exactly the same. It is the best dish that can be made with the ingredients and accessories brought by Yun Songtao today - Fengwu Jiutian!" Gu Zheng said.
When Gu Zheng was doing the Tie Immortal mission before, he had received many rewards for his cooking skills. As a reward for these cooking skills, once Gu Zheng decides to learn it, Qi Ling will give him the cooking skills to choose from. The dish 'Feng Wu Jiu Tian' was one of the cooking skills rewards chosen by Gu Zheng at that time.
"Master, I'm even more curious! Yun Songtao wants to use the ingredients and accessories he provided to stump the master. This shows that he knows something about the 'Snap Fanghua' that even the master has never encountered! But the master is the descendant of Tiexian , it stands to reason that the cooking skills chosen by the master should be of a kind that others do not know, but how did Yun Songtao know about 'Feng Wu Jiu Tian'?" Die Ling frowned.
"Lord Tie Xian has a certain relationship with the Immortal Chef sect. A very small part of his cooking skills have been passed on to several Immortal Chef sects, and are regarded as the treasure of the sect by several Immortal Chef sects! And 'Feng Wu' Jiutian' is the treasure of one of the Immortal Kitchen sects," Gu Zheng said.
"So this is what it looks like!"
Die Ling was stunned, and then asked: "Although the 'Instant Youth' is powerful, the master also happens to have the 'Feng Wu Jiu Tian' cooking method. You can definitely win this mission, right?"
"Can win!"
Gu Zheng smiled at Die Ling, but he was not happy because he could win.
Although Gu Zheng already had the cooking method of 'Feng Wu Jiu Tian' earlier, because the ingredients for cooking this dish were never complete, he had never made it, and he never really felt the 'fang of instant' in the way of cooking. magnificent'.
Moreover, since Tiexian taught Gu Zheng the cooking skills using spiritual thoughts, Gu Zheng was not able to see everything he encountered in detail when he was cooking 'Fengwu Jiutian'.
In addition, the 'moment of youth' that Gu Zheng saw was not the real 'moment of youth', it was just the appearance of 'moment of youth' after it was suppressed! And was there anything strange about the ‘Instant Youth’ before it appeared? Because it is the power transmitted by spiritual thoughts, there is no way to know the ancient contention in detail! Therefore, when he saw that Yun Songtao provided the ingredients for cooking 'Fengwu Jiutian', he sighed and felt that it was a pity!
If he were not doing a mission, Gu Zheng would definitely experience the 'Flower Flower'. However, under the restrictions of the mission rules, Gu Zheng did not dare to let his ideas go. He could only follow the methods passed down by Tiexian. In response to the 'moment of youth' that will appear at that time. After all, the appearance of 'Fenghua in an instant' only lasts for an instant. Once he lets his thoughts go, the influence of 'Fanghua in an instant' on the taste of the dishes will inevitably make the delicacy of 'Feng Wu Jiutian' fall below 'seven'. The whole mission of 'culminating in culinary skills' failed because of this.
Gu Zheng was very concerned about not being able to fully experience the 'moment of youth', because this was an opportunity to test himself!
According to what Tie Xianxuying said when he taught Gu Zheng's "Feng Wu Jiutian", there are two transcendent supernatural powers in the way of eating. One is the eye of the Tao that discovers the secret of the "bright side" of all ingredients, and the other is The heart of Tao that senses the secrets of the 'dark side' of all ingredients! The variable represented by ‘instant youth’ is the secret of the ‘dark side’ of the ingredients.
Gu Zheng's Eye of Tao was opened because he took the 'Enlightening Food Cultivation' cooked by Tie Xian with supreme magical power. But according to Tie Xian, the Heart of Tao is not an acquired magical power, it is a kind of innate thing. If the immortal chef has the Heart of Tao, the Heart of Tao will awaken when he sees the real 'Moment of Beauty' for the first time! If the immortal chef does not have the Heart of Tao, then even if he sees more 'Moment of Beauty', it will be in vain.
However, when the shadow of Tie Xian taught 'Phoenix Dances in the Nine Heavens', he also specially comforted his descendants. He told his descendants that it is better to have the innate advantage of the Heart of Tao, and there is no need to be sad if there is no Heart of Tao. After all, the so-called three thousand great ways cannot be mastered by one person! Because of this, he has never tested his descendants to see whether they have the Heart of Tao.
The Heart of Tao is the icing on the cake, it is not the only criterion for measuring a person's achievements! But even so, Gu Zheng also wants to know whether he has the Heart of Tao.
However, sometimes it is really difficult to have both! If Gu Zheng wants to know whether he has the heart of Tao, then he has to see the real 'moment of beauty'. Once the real moment of beauty appears, even if the dish 'Phoenix Dances in the Nine Heavens' is not cooked well, the whole mission will fail.
"Why are you being stupid? You won't wait to see whether you have the heart of Tao, right? If you do this, then you are really stupid! If the task of 'culinary mastery' fails, the loss you will lose is immeasurable!"
Seeing that Gu Zheng was still staring at the ingredients in a daze, the spirit of the instrument, who knew what he was thinking, reminded him.
"You are right. Once the mission fails, the loss is too heavy!"
Gu Zheng sighed, and then said: "Forget it, don't worry about this. The primary goal is to complete the mission. As for whether I have the heart of Tao, I will talk about it later."
"Good boy, so obedient!"
The spirit of the instrument's old-fashioned tone earned a big roll of Gu Zheng's eyes.
Excluding the auxiliary ingredients, there are six ingredients for cooking ‘Phoenix Dances in the Nine Heavens’, namely: blue shrimp, purple mulberry fish, four-winged feathered bird eggs, fairy potato flour, heavenly bird meat, and fairy fruit.
Among the six ingredients, the ingredients of blue shrimp, purple mulberry fish, four-winged feathered bird eggs and fairy potato flour are ordinary, the ingredients of heavenly bird meat are medium, and the ingredients of fairy fruit are excellent.
Among the six ingredients, the ingredient that Gu Zheng has never had is the fairy fruit, which is excellent but extremely rare! It is also an important ingredient in this ‘Phoenix Dances in the Nine Heavens’ that can cause ‘momentary beauty’.
After rinsing the blue shrimp and removing the shells, and deboning the purple mulberry fish, Gu Zheng chopped the two cleaned ingredients into the size of pomegranate seeds, and then put them into a cold water pot.
The water control technique and the fire control technique were performed at the same time. When the water temperature reached 70%, Gu Zheng took the blue shrimp and purple mulberry fish out of the pot and put them into the bowl of the prepared sauce for marinating.
After slicing the Tianqin meat, Gu Zheng used some auxiliary materials appropriately, and then roasted the meat slices. During this period, Gu Zheng used the water control technique to lock most of the meat juice in the meat slices.
The blue-striped shrimp and purple mulberry fish cubes have been marinated, and some deep red sauce hangs on the white meat, which smells uniquely sweet.
Beat the four-winged sparrow eggs into the blue-striped shrimp and purple mulberry fish cubes, and then add some fairy potato powder. Gu Zheng mixed it into a paste, and then poured it into a hot pan with only a little oil.
The sound of "sizzling" came from the pot, and with Gu Zheng's rapid stirring, the original paste-like ingredients quickly absorbed the juice, and the aroma of the mixture of fish, shrimp, and eggs became more and more intense in the air.
The ingredients in the pot were fried until 70% cooked, and Gu Zheng poured them into the plate, then performed the magic "Gathering Sand into a Tower", and then placed the roasted heavenly bird meat slices on it, and a phoenix with a slightly yellow body and maroon wings appeared vividly on the plate.
Put the prototype of "Phoenix Dances in the Nine Heavens" into the steamer, Gu Zheng slowly steamed it, and slowly adjusted its taste with the five elements magic.
After a while, Gu Zheng no longer cared about the prototype of "Phoenix Dances in the Nine Heavens" in the steamer, and began to deal with the fairy fruit.
The fairy fruit is a kind of pulp that looks a bit like a tomato. The fruit is like a ripe persimmon, but its inside is all red sweet jam. Moreover, the size of the fairy fruit is very large, almost equivalent to a small melon.
Pour a small part of the fairy jam into a bowl and set it aside for later use. Gu Zheng also mixed a little bit of the dry-fried fairy potato powder and other auxiliary materials into the remaining half of the fairy jam.
The oil temperature in the pot has reached the right level. Gu Zheng poured the prepared fairy jam into it and simmered it slowly over low heat.
An indescribable sweet fragrance rose from the pot. Under the control of Gu Zheng's fairy technique, the fairy jam slowly became viscous. As bubbles emerged from it, its color changed from the original red to like a flame.
"Gudong! "
Die Ling couldn't help swallowing her saliva.
At this time, the fragrance in the air was not only the sweet fragrance of the fairy jam in the pot, but also the fresh fragrance of the embryonic form of 'Phoenix Dances in the Nine Heavens' in the steamer! These two fragrances merged in the air and evolved into a refreshing fragrance that made people want to smell it again, and the feeling of hunger was involuntarily generated.
"You are swallowing your saliva now, and your saliva will flow out later, right?" Gu Zheng smiled at Die Ling.
"Who let the dishes made by the master smell good!"
Die Ling stuck out her tongue at Guzheng, and then asked: "Master, what other steps are there for this 'Feng Wu Nine Heavens'?"
"There are only two steps left, one is pouring the juice, and the other is finishing."
While talking, Gu Zheng took out the prototype of 'Feng Wu Jiutian' from the steamer, then picked up the pot and prepared to pour the hot fairy jam on the prototype of 'Feng Wu Jiutian'.
"Pour the Fairy Jam on the prototype of 'Feng Wu Jiu Tian', and the 'Flower of Youth' will appear in three seconds, thus ruining the dish. However, if there are preparations to suppress 'Flower of Youth', then everything will It’s a different matter! It’s a pity that I can’t watch the appearance of ‘Snapshot Youth’!”
While sighing in his heart, Gu Zheng poured the hot fairy jam on the prototype of 'Fengwu Jiutian'.
A magical scene happened. The fairy jam was poured on the prototype of 'Fengwu Jiutian', and it made a sound like frying! Moreover, the extremely fragrant smoke is also emitted along with the sound of frying.
Everything has a process, and the three seconds when the fairy jam is poured on the 'Feng Wu Jiutian' is the process of brewing of 'Flower Youth'! However, this process cannot be seen by the Eye of Tao, let alone ordinary immortal chefs.
Gu Zheng paused for a second. Unwilling to give up, he stared at the 'Feng Wu Jiutian' with his Tao Eyes, but found nothing.
Not daring to waste any more time, Gu Zheng picked up the bowl next to him and poured the red jam on the 'Fengwu Jiutian'.
Using the original fairy jam to control the damage of 'momentary youth' is the method passed down to ancient times by Tie Xian. And the suppressed 'momentary youth' will also become another kind of brilliance. This kind of brilliance is rebirth that is completely opposite to destruction! As long as the subsequent steps are handled properly, the original deliciousness of the ingredients will definitely increase by more than 20%!
"call out……"
When the original jam was poured on the 'Fengwu Jiutian', the 'Fengwu Jiutian' also made a whistle that was very similar to the cry of the phoenix.
At the same time, the entire 'Phoenix Dance in the Nine Heavens' changed in the eyes of the Tao of Guzheng, and many new substances were produced in it! Gu Zheng immediately used the Water Control Technique to reasonably prepare and integrate these substances.
A large amount of white mist emerged as the ancient battle ended, and the fragrance in the air reached a new height at this time.
"Gudong!"
Butterfly Spirit swallowed the saliva that almost flowed out.
"call out……"
There was another whistle that sounded like the sound of a phoenix, and traces of juice shot out from the 'Phoenix Dance in the Nine Heavens'. They exploded in the air, turning into a halo like fireworks.
This is the end of the 'Phoenix Dance for Nine Heavens'. This dish was cooked perfectly by Gu Zheng. The reasonable blending of the 'Fenghua Fanghua' rebirth substances actually increased the deliciousness of this dish by a full 30%!
However, Gu Zheng was not happy about the success of 'Feng Wu Jiu Tian', after all, he had doubts in his heart! At the moment when the 'Feng Wu Nine Heavens' was completed, the Five Elements Immortal Ball in his body moved very suddenly, and then immediately returned to calm.
Gu Zheng didn't understand why the ball of immortal power was beating, but his intuition told him that it should be related to the 'moment of youth'.
There was no time for Gu Zheng to think about it any more. He could only put aside the things he couldn't understand for the time being. Now that the 'Phoenix Dances in the Nine Heavens' has been completed, the white mist covering the plate will soon take shape. Gu Zheng must bring it to the guests' dining table as soon as possible.
The extremely fragrant "Feng Wu Jiutian" took shape, and the white mist turned into a phoenix with long tail feathers. It flew above the plate, with a light and elegant posture, like a fairy dancing in heaven.
Without the cover of the extremely fragrant white mist, everyone can clearly see that the fairy jam that originally covered the body of 'Fengwu Jiutian' has disappeared. The fairy jam was actually covered by 'Fengwu Jiutian' in such a short period of time. Jiutian' was completely absorbed! The overall color of the 'Phoenix Dance in the Nine Heavens', which has absorbed the fairy jam, has also been unified, and it is as gorgeous as a flaming phoenix spreading its wings.
"Gudong!"
Yun Songtao couldn't help but swallowed his saliva. The appearance of the extremely fragrant form made the charming fragrance of 'Feng Wu Jiutian' rise to the point where he couldn't bear it! He doesn't want to think about anything now, and winning or losing tasks seem to be unimportant. The only question he is thinking about now is, how to handle this dish with chopsticks? Which one should eat the phoenix head first or the phoenix tail first?
"Gudong!"
The saliva he swallowed again seemed to remind Yun Songtao that he was already thirsty.
No longer hesitating, Yun Songtao moved his chopsticks, took off the phoenix head and put it into his mouth. He immediately closed his eyes and started chewing.
With a slightly sweet and charming fragrance, it exploded in Yun Songtao's mouth, which also made his eyes that had just been closed suddenly open, and then he narrowed his eyes in intoxication, and said vaguely: "It's really It’s delicious!”
Compared with Yun Songtao's intoxication with delicious food, Wei Yang's face was full of enthusiasm and excitement when he saw Gu Zheng appear! It wasn't until Gu Zheng looked at him that he woke up from the shock.
"Junior Wei Yang, I have met my senior!"
Wei Yang saluted Gu Zheng, and the fist-clasping gesture he used when he first came to Qidian has turned into a bow now.
"No gifts!"
Of course Gu Zheng knew that there was no point in pretending to be mysterious at this time. A 'Feng Wu Nine Heavens' exposed a lot of things to him. Therefore, facing Wei Yang's surrender, he just smiled and accepted it calmly.
"senior,"
Gu Zheng's kindness made Wei Yang flattered. He wanted to say something to Gu Zheng, but he really didn't know where to start. The shock Gu Zheng brought to him was really too strong!
