A Mouthful of Sky-high Fried Rice, Lao Tang Apprenticed on the Spot

  Chapter 12 [Unrivaled Beef Noodles in the World]!

  Li Yi stepped up to the wooden stele, raised his hand and stroked the body of the stele.

  Its tentacles are smooth and cold to the touch. It feels more like metal to the touch, and its hardness is also like metal, which is extremely hard.

  The last time he came in, Li Yi tried to snap it with his nails and bite it with his teeth, but he couldn't leave any marks on it.

   But it has a wooden pattern, and a cross-section of the broken wooden texture can be seen above.

  The last time Li Yi came in, when Li Yi touched it, it felt like this.

   But Li Yi remembered clearly that when he came in last time, there were no words on it except for the pattern on the edge.

  But at this time, there was an extra line of detailed text on the stele.

  That is a biographical profile of a character.

  Li Kaile (from the seventh day of June in the 21st year of Qianlong to the 18th day of the twelfth lunar month in the 12th year of Jiaqing)

Male, a native of Gusu, Jiangsu province, who studied less, learned how to cook at 12 years old, and went to Suzhou to weave the back kitchen, and studied under the fried king Song Yushan. In the forty-ninth year of Qianlong, he was recommended by Zhang Dongguan, and went to Beijing to help cook with Shen Erguan and Zhu Erguan. Later, he was the royal chef of Emperor Jiaqing, and he was bestowed the No. 1 Jinchao Wang, who died well.

  Looking at this line of text, Li Yi was thoughtful.

   Isn't this his experience in the dream space?

   This space is just the first floor, like an entrance.

  The real dream space is hidden in the wooden tablet, and you need to smear blood on the wooden tablet to enter.

  The last time he went in suddenly because he broke his gum while trying to bite.

  In that dream, he lived as Li Kaile for seven years and learned 【Supreme Emperor Fried Rice】.

   But he only stayed there for seven years, why did it record Li Kaile's life?

   Could it be that this wooden tablet is just a medium, and he just experienced the seven-year life of a man named Li Kaile?

  Li Yi couldn't be sure.

  He tried to raise his hand to touch the line of text, but only heard a snap, his fingertips seemed to be scalded, and there was a slight burning pain.

  Following, his feet suddenly trembled like an earthquake.

  Li Yi was taken aback, and hurriedly took two steps back, but almost tripped over a metal plate that appeared suddenly.

  He turned around to look, but found a metal plate about fifty centimeters high standing behind him.

   The material of the metal plate is unknown, but the overall color is golden.

  It does not have the texture and cross-section of wood, and the whole body is very pure.

   But for some reason, its roots and the woody ground grew together.

  Two completely different materials are integrated with each other.

  The four sides of the metal plate are engraved with lines of different lengths, and the blank area in the center is also engraved with lines of text.

  Looking at the writing on the metal plate, Li Yi looked a little strange.

   Because it says his personal information.

  Li Yi (born on July 5, 2000—)

  Male, Han nationality, from Yangcheng, Guangdong Province, bachelor degree, graduated from Guangdong Ocean University, majoring in food science and engineering.

  Personal Occupation: 【Chef】

  Personal specialty: 【Supreme Emperor Fried Rice】

what's the situation?

  Li Yi was dumbfounded.

  How was his message engraved on such a metal plate?

  Birth date, identity information, plus the metal square plate, it looks like... a tombstone?

  Li Yi twitched the corner of his mouth.

   Forget it, let’s call it a metal plate.

  What does this metal plate have to do with that wooden monument?

  He turned back to look at the wooden tablet, but found some changes in the space behind the wooden tablet.

  There was originally a fog wall composed of colorful fog, which was extremely dense.

   But now the fog there has become a lot thinner.

  He could see the interior through the fog, and there seemed to be a rectangular object there, which looked a bit like the wooden tablet.

   Could it be the reflection of this wooden monument?

He tried to change the position, observed from the left and right angles, and finally determined that it was not the reflection of the wooden monument, because the object looked a circle larger than the wooden monument, but the shape was very similar, almost exactly the same.

   But through the fog, he still couldn't see the specific appearance of the object.

  He stepped in front of the fog wall, raised his hand and pushed forward.

   Soon, his palm touched the mist.

  The mist has no substance, but it has a strange force field, blocking the progress of Li Yi's palm.

  The last time Li Yi came in, Li Yi tried to explore this fog.

   But with all his strength, he could only press his palm into the fog wall to a depth of less than one millimeter.

  However, this time, his entire palm was pressed into the mist, almost a centimeter deep.

   Much softer than last time.

   Because of the appearance of this metal plate?

   Or because of the message on the metal plate?

   Or maybe his strength has grown a bit?

  Li Yi withdrew his hand, the muscle bundle of the forearm became a little clearer due to the force just now.

  When he first entered the dream space, he couldn't even hold the pot steady.

  The master asked him to start with an empty pot, and then add sand little by little until the pot is full of sand, and he can easily shake it.

  He has practiced for three full years just to beat the sand.

  However, his efforts were not in vain. After leaving the dream, he found that his wrist strength had also increased significantly, as if he had brought the training results from the dream into reality.

   Otherwise, with his physical fitness that just graduated from university, and he can't resist with his shoulders and hands, how can he reproduce the frying skills required by [Supreme Emperor Fried Rice]?

   Clenching his fists, he looked at the wooden tablet again.

  The last time he came in, he learned 【Supreme Emperor Fried Rice】, obtained three raw materials for fried rice, a set of imperial Wanshou Wujiang bowl, and his wrist strength has also been significantly improved.

   These are the benefits that the dream space brought him.

   Coming in this time, he naturally didn't want to return empty-handed.

  What is that metal plate and the object behind the fog, he still can't figure it out yet.

   It’s better to get as much benefit as possible first, and then talk about the rest later.

  Thinking of this, he returned to the wooden monument.

  Raising his left hand, he took off the ring on his little finger, twisted it slightly, and a thin needle protruded from the center of the ring.

  He lightly pricked the belly of the ring finger of his right hand with the tip of a needle, and a dark red blood bead came out.

  He smeared the blood on the wooden tablet and waited quietly.

  Last time he entered the dream space without knowing it, this time he wants to see how he got in.

   Soon, the blood stain seemed to be swallowed by a sponge and sank into the wooden tablet.

   At the same time, Li Yi's vision blurred, and the next moment, he was standing in a huge kitchen.

  The wooden ceiling has been blackened by oily smoke, and the steam below is steaming, filled with the smell of pasta and steamed vegetables.

  The flames rolled in the mist, and the stoves were lined up one by one. In front of each stove stood a chef in a sleeveless white coat and vest, yelling while cooking.

  The chef was followed by a few helpers, and a group of apprentices were busy cutting pies and serving dishes, and they were very busy.

  Looking at this scene, Li Yi was secretly excited.

  He's back!

   "Shoot the grass fruit, remove the seeds and keep the shell, and give it to me when it's done."

   A voice came from behind him.

  Following, Li Yi felt the back of his head being slapped: "Did you hear that? You're so stupid as a cow."

  Li Yi looked back, and immediately saw a familiar face, but it wasn't the master.

   "Huh? Master Zhao?"

  Li Yi was a little surprised: "Why are you so young?"

   "Are you sleepy?"

  Master Zhao is about forty years old, looking at him suspiciously: "Who do you call Master Zhao?"

  Li Yi was at a loss. He was about to say something when he saw a familiar figure.

   Isn’t that him?

  Li Yi's eyes widened.

  But then he realized that it was Li Kaile! The person he possessed the last time he came in!

  Seeing this, Li Yi quickly chased after him, grabbed him, and called out: "Li Kaile!"

  Li Kaile looked back at him suspiciously, and muttered: "Niu Er, don't make trouble, the master asked me to buy eggs. If I miss the time, I will be beaten."

  Listening to his Suzhou dialect, Li Yi was taken aback for a moment, and then let go of his hands.

  Li Kaile glanced at him, muttered something, and left the imperial dining room quickly.

   Li Yi watched him leave, frowned and thought for a moment, then quickly walked to the water tank by the wall outside the door, and looked down.

  A thick-eyed man was reflected on the surface of the water, and Li Yi called out his name in one mouthful: "Niu Erguan?"

  Niu Erguan is another imperial chef in the imperial dining room who won the emperor's favor with one dish. His housekeeping skills are the best beef noodles in the world!

  Li Yi recalled Li Kaile's appearance just now, and suddenly realized.

  It turned out that after he learned a dish, he would possess different people when he came in again.

  He turned back and looked at the imperial dining room. The chefs on each stove had their own housekeeping skills.

  So, wouldn't he be able to learn the unique skills of all of them through the dream space?

  After realizing this, he suddenly became a little excited.

   "Niu Er! You are an idiot!"

  Master Zhao followed, shouting and cursing.

   "Here we come! Master!"

  Li Yi responded, and ran over quickly, and asked with a smile: "You want the grass fruit to remove the seeds and keep the shell, do you want stewed meat? Then two will be enough?"

   "Huh? Why did you suddenly become enlightened?"

   Master Zhao looked at him suspiciously.

  Li Yi smiled, without explaining, just ran to the warehouse in a hurry: "I'll go right away."

   "It's gone wrong..."

  Master Zhao muttered something, but didn't take it seriously, shook his head, and turned back into the imperial dining room.

  Time flies, and four years have passed in a flash.

  In the upper color fog space, Li Yi reappeared.

   "Finally back again!"

  He sighed a little tiredly, and looked at the wooden tablet in front of him.

  Unexpectedly, Niu Erguan's biography appeared on the wooden tablet.

   And on the metal plate behind him, there is also an extra specialty in the column of personal specialty.

  【The best beef noodles in the world】!
