On the self-cultivation of a foodie

"Is this grilled fish really that delicious?"

Seeing Jiang Haiyan froze after taking a bite of the grilled fish, Hao Meishi curiously took a bite too.

"...It's really delicious, and it seems to be different from the ones eaten in other places."

At this moment, Qin Hesheng pushed the door open and entered.

Although women are always reserved when eating in front of others, after taking a bite of the grilled fish, Hao Meishi let go of her reserve in an instant, and began to eat one bite after another. Seeing that Qin Hesheng had finally returned, she even greeted: "The restaurant you introduced The grilled fish tastes really good, I couldn't stop after taking a bite, where did you go just now, why did you come here now, if you don't come again, we will eat all the grilled fish."

Qin Hesheng didn't know when he took off his coat. Now he was only wearing a white shirt with the sleeves rolled up to the crook of his arms. He had a gentle smile on his face. The male protagonists who come out of youth idol dramas can easily poke the hearts of little girls.

After hearing Hao Meishi's words, Qin Hesheng smiled slightly: "Is the grilled fish delicious?"

"It's delicious," Hao Meishi nodded, and then she looked at Jiang Haiyan at the side, and teased, "Even little brother Jiang was stunned after eating the grilled fish here, even a foodie like him was stunned." , can it still be delicious?"

"...Really?" Qin Hesheng smiled lightly and looked at Jiang Haiyan.

Jiang Haiyan was silent for a while, then nodded.

Hao Meishi went on to say: "The grilled fish in this restaurant tastes really special. I don't know if there is some secret recipe handed down from the ancestors. It's just different from other grilled fish. It's hard to find such a place for you. Did you Have you searched on purpose?" At this point, she couldn't help but glance at Jiang Haiyan, Best Actor Qin doesn't look like that kind of foodie, if he deliberately searched for delicious food nearby, there is probably only one possibility, right?

Qin Hesheng's smile was as gentle as a spring breeze: "It's fine if you think it's delicious, I actually made the grilled fish."

"Did you cook this grilled fish?" Hao Meishi was very surprised, "You actually cook yourself, King Qin, I can't tell that your cooking skills are so good!" It turns out that Qin Hesheng went to the kitchen to cook grilled fish just now, no wonder I haven't been back for so long... Thinking of this, she couldn't help but glance at Jiang Haiyan again. It couldn't be more obvious who Qin Hesheng cooks for himself.

Jiang Haiyan pursed her lips, and rarely said anything.

"My family was poor when I was young, and my parents were often away from work all day long, so I learned to cook by myself when I was very young," Qin Hesheng said with a faint smile, "Fortunately, I still have a talent for cooking. It’s too unpalatable, and I seem to be very talented in cooking fish, if I don’t become an actor in the future, maybe I will open a grilled fish shop.”

Hao Meishi obviously also knows Qin Hesheng's life experience. After all, he struggled from an orphan to become a film star. This is like a life of inspirational novels. Both traditional media and Internet media like big books. This kind of marketing jokes are passed around, and its brainwashing effect is no less than that of Newton's apples and Washington's cherry trees.

"When you open a grilled fish restaurant, I will definitely go to support it," Hao Meishi said with a big curly roll, "Fans like us must go to support the grilled fish restaurant of King Qin Best Actor... right? , Brother Jiang?"

Only then did Jiang Haiyan come back to his senses, and he gave a dry laugh: "Well, I need to support you."

"By the way," Qin Hesheng turned around to look at Jiang Haiyan, he looked into Jiang Haiyan's eyes and said with a smile, "There is a food program that wants to invite you to be a guest, and they have invited me before, and it may happen in the last two days I came to contact you, and I said I would think about it, and if you agree to go, then I will."

Jiang Haiyan subconsciously glanced at Shen Heqing, and saw Shen Heqing's expression was cold, obviously not happy, so he politely refused: "I'm probably busy recently..."

This is not an excuse he made casually. Since he defeated Zhu Lanhe to win the championship of Super Invincible Big Eater, his popularity has soared very fast. Many people came to him, wanting to find him to shoot commercials and participate in competitions and programs Even if there are countless hosts, it is impossible for him to accept all the invitations. Even if he is not a human being, he can't stand this kind of trouble. Under Shen Heqing's suggestion, he replied "Think about it first" to every invitation. , Turn around and carefully pick a few quality and word-of-mouth ones to pick up. Now that they have a choice, they must choose the right ones. He's not a big shot, but something like black history will stay with you for a lifetime.

Of course, the most important thing is that in a few days it will be the martial arts exam for the alliance's elite license exam. According to Shen Heqing, the martial arts exam can't be done in a day like the literary exam, it can be as little as two or three days, and as much as a week Even a month is possible. Although the content of the martial arts test is different every year, since it is a martial arts test, it is naturally related to cultivation. No matter how the form of the martial arts test changes, it remains the same. In fact, what must be tested must be the cultivation level of the monk himself.

Jiang Haiyan wasn't worried about this, he wasn't worried about whether he could pass the martial arts test, but he didn't know how long the test would last.

"It doesn't matter if you're busy recently, the filming of this show will start in two months," Qin Hesheng said with an impeccable smile, "You can also think about it for a few more days."

Jiang Haiyan hesitated for a moment, and then heard Qin Hesheng continue to say: "The name of that food show is "Desert Island Food Journey". They chose to shoot on a deserted island, but this time they chose an uninhabited island in the South China Sea... that island might be called Penglai Island."

South China Sea……

Penglai Island...

After hearing these two words, Jiang Haiyan was stunned for a moment.

Penglai Island in the South China Sea...

"Of course," Qin Hesheng smiled gently, "That Penglai Island is definitely not the one in the myth, it's just an ordinary uninhabited island."

Jiang Haiyan lowered his eyes, pursed his lips, and asked after a while: "Penglai Island in the South China Sea?"

"Well," Qin Hesheng replied with a smile, "The person who named this island must have been a very romantic person."

Jiang Haiyan was silent for a moment, and then said: "Let me think about it."

"Is "Desert Island Food Journey" a popular food show recently?" Hao Meishi saw that the conversation between Qin Hesheng and Jiang Haiyan had come to an end, so she interjected, "I quite like watching that food show, it's very interesting, and The general food shows are different, you can go and have fun, Brother Jiang, it’s definitely more interesting than participating in other food shows.”

Jiang Haiyan was still immersed in his own thoughts, but after hearing Hao Meishi's words, he still answered: "Why do you say that?" A food show filmed on a deserted island is indeed quite creative.

"Every episode of this program will invite ten people to participate. The ten people will be divided into two groups, and five people will form a team, and then simulate the life of survival on a desert island on a desert island. You need to find various tools hidden by the staff according to the prompts. and ingredients, the whole team will work together to make delicious food with limited ingredients, and then the two groups will compete against each other. The remaining team wins," Hermes said beamingly, obviously a big fan of "Desert Island Food Tour".

"It sounds like a combination of an ordinary gourmet show and a desert island survival show." Jiang Haiyan disagreed.

"That's true," Hao Meishi nodded and admitted, "But "Desert Island Food Tour" is still very interesting. The previous issues invited many popular stars, handsome men and beauties, athletes and comedians, see There are quite a lot of points, and there are plenty of laughs."

"Well, it's very interesting," Qin Hesheng smiled slightly, looking into Jiang Haiyan's eyes and said, "So after you go back, think about it carefully."

Looking at Qin Hesheng's face, Jiang Haiyan nodded involuntarily.

After eating the grilled fish, several people said goodbye one after another and left.

Jiang Haiyan and Shen Heqing returned home, just as Jiang Haiyan was buried in the gate of his house, Shen Heqing pressed his shoulders and questioned him.

Shen Heqing's eyes darkened slightly: "You have something on your mind? Because of what happened just now?"

Jiang Haiyan pursed her lips and said, "It's nothing..."

"You're lying," Shen Heqing looked straight into Jiang Haiyan's eyes, "After hearing Qin Hesheng's words just now, your mood is obviously not right."

"How do you know everything?" Jiang Haiyan smiled wryly, "Actually, you really have mind reading skills, right?"

"If I really have the ability to read minds," Shen Heqing lowered his eyes and said calmly, "Then I don't have to guess so hard." He could feel that Jiang Haiyan should have a lot of things that he didn't tell him.

Jiang Haiyan was silent for a while, and finally said: "The place where that person lost his soul... is Penglai Island in the South China Sea."

"Penglai Island? Lost soul?" Shen Heqing frowned suddenly. Although Qin Hesheng mentioned Penglai Island in the South China Sea just now, he had some guesses in his heart, but he didn't expect that Penglai Island in the South China Sea was actually the place where the monk in white clothes lost his soul. .

Jiang Haiyan nodded, and said with a wry smile: "Back then, that person and I chased that demon cultivator for a long distance, and finally ran to a small island in the South China Sea. On that small island, that person and I finally joined hands to succeed. We took down that demon cultivator, but that person...was seriously injured by that demon cultivator during the decisive battle, and finally that person lost his soul on that small island."

"Of course, at that time, that small island didn't have a name yet, it was just an inconspicuous small island in the vast sea," Jiang Haiyan sighed, "A few years ago, on a whim, I wanted to visit that small island. After searching for a long time, I finally found the small island. It has been more than 1000 years, and it is hard for the small island to be there all the time. When I revisited the old place, I found that the small island has been included in a tourist development zone. It was also given a name like that...but because the environment of Penglai Island is not suitable for human habitation, the development has been temporarily put on hold, and it seems that it is still just a deserted island until now."

"……I see."

Shen Heqing immediately understood, no wonder Jiang Haiyan had such a big emotional change when he heard the words Nanhai Penglai Island. It turned out that that place was the place where the monk in white lost his soul. It turned out that Jiang Haiyan had lost his soul in that white monk for more than 1000 years Then go back to that place and revisit the old place...

"That's why I was so surprised to hear Qin Hesheng mention Penglai Island just now." Jiang Haiyan shrugged, "But... it should be just a coincidence."

Shen Heqing was silent for a long time, and then said lightly: "You can participate."

"What?" Jiang Haiyan didn't react for a moment.

""Desert Island Food Tour", you go to participate," Shen Heqing repeated, and he lowered his eyes, "Whether it is a coincidence or not, you go to participate, you will know."

Is this really just a coincidence?

"Are you serious?" Jiang Haiyan raised his eyebrows. Regardless of Qin Hesheng's intention to invite him to participate in that show, shouldn't Shen Heqing take a firm stand against his contact with Qin Hesheng?

Shen Heqing asked without answering: "You want to participate, don't you?"

Jiang Haiyan pursed her lips: "Who said I want to participate."

Shen Heqing lowered his eyes, and said in a flat tone: "Don't you want to know the truth of the matter? Don't you want to know... Is that person really lost his soul?"

Jiang Haiyan was taken aback for a moment.

Shen Heqing continued to lower his eyes and said, "You must really want to know if that person has lost his soul, right? As long as you go to that show, you will know?" Since Qin Hesheng's appearance, there have been so many vague hints, Even a bystander like him can see a thing or two, let alone Jiang Haiyan himself?He believed that not only him, but also Jiang Haiyan wanted to know the truth of everything. Since Qin Hesheng had planted so many foreshadowings, there would always be a suitable time to unravel all the foreshadowings and reveal the truth... I am afraid Qin Hesheng has been waiting for that Right time, right?

Shen Heqing's thoughts and Jiang Haiyan can naturally guess a thing or two. As the person involved, of course he wants to know the truth more than anyone else, but for some reason, now he is obviously only one step away from the truth, but he suddenly doesn't want to move forward Take this step.

It doesn't matter if you don't know the truth...

Compared to figuring out the truth, he now only has a vague premonition in his heart, and this premonition fills him with a strong resistance...

he doesn't want to know...

He did not want!

Shen Heqing called Jiang Haiyan several times, and Jiang Haiyan came back to his senses.

"What's wrong with you?" Shen Heqing frowned slightly, Jiang Haiyan's expression just now seemed to be very...painful?

Jiang Haiyan pursed her lips: "No, it's nothing, then I'll go to participate."

"What's the matter with you? Your face is very pale," Shen Heqing frowned, "Uncomfortable? Did you eat your stomach?" Could it be that Qin Hesheng is actually a demon cultivator with ulterior motives, and he took the opportunity to eat the grilled fish for Jiang Haiyan? poison?Could it be that Qin Hesheng's real purpose of approaching Jiang Haiyan was actually this?

Jiang Haiyan laughed dryly: "If you care about it again, you will be confused. How can I eat a bad stomach? Even if I take a ton of laxatives, I will be fine."

Shen Heqing lowered his head and stared into Jiang Haiyan's eyes for a long while, then lowered his head, put his forehead against Jiang Haiyan's forehead, and said softly: "You know that I will care about it, so don't let me worry about it anymore."

Jiang Haiyan felt Shen Heqing's breath close at hand, he paused for a moment, and remained silent.

"Although there are some things you don't want to say yet," Shen Heqing and Jiang Haiyan pressed their foreheads together, "but I believe that sooner or later you will be willing to take the initiative to tell me..."

Jiang Haiyan closed his eyes and did not speak.

Shen Heqing touched Jiang Haiyan's face: "If you are afraid of knowing the truth, don't worry, I will accompany you."

Sure enough, the next day, a staff member from the "Desert Island Food Tour" program contacted Jiang Haiyan. Jiang Haiyan hesitated for a while, but nodded in agreement.

After accepting "Desert Island Gourmet Journey", of course, he also pushed the invitations to other shows during that time. After that, he searched for this show on the Internet and found that, as Hao Meishi said, the reputation of this show is quite good. And the popularity is very high. The guests invited in the previous few episodes are basically all big names, whether they are popular celebrities, famous athletes, or well-known cross talk actors, or well-known hosts.

Quite a few newcomers like him who are "little lotus just showing their sharp corners" want to show their faces on this show, because no matter which circle you originally belonged to, as long as you participate in this show, you are quite Yu half-footed into the entertainment circle, there was a young model who showed her presence through this program before, her popularity skyrocketed, and now she has filmed several movies and TV series, which is considered a beautiful completion from a young model to Transformation of actors. In the last few episodes, there was an actor who was getting older and his popularity was declining. To put it bluntly, he was an out-of-date star. By participating in "Desert Island Food Tour", he attracted a large number of fans again and rejuvenated his acting career. The freshman has completed the salted fish turnaround gorgeously... With these role models, many people have seen the power of this show, and of course they squeezed their heads and wanted to be on this show.

But these are things that Jiang Haiyan only knew after he agreed to take over the show, because he didn't pay much attention to those food shows and competitions, he didn't even pay attention to the highest competition in the food competition world like Super Invincible Big Eater, and even more so What's more, "Desert Island Food Tour" is a new program that only appeared in the past two years.

Jiang Haiyan rubbed his chin. The ratings of this show were already very high. With the addition of Qin Hesheng, Qin's best actor, the ratings will continue to soar, right?When he comes back after participating in this show, I'm afraid that when he goes out to make soy sauce, he will have to cover it tightly, otherwise he will be recognized by fans in minutes and blocked by people who want to sign...

Alas, being famous is such a sweet annoyance.

In other words, should he find someone to help design a better-looking signature now?

However, Jiang Haiyan obviously didn't have so much time to think about the troubles and sweetness after being famous, because the martial arts test of the alliance's elite license exam is coming.

A few days later, Jiang Haiyan was dug up from the bed by Shen Heqing early in the morning like a potato.

"Eat breakfast quickly, the test guide will be here soon."

While serving Jiang Haiyan's breakfast, Shen Heqing helped Jiang Haiyan pack his things.

Jiang Haiyan yawned and ate noodles, while squinting at Shen Heqing: "Why do I feel like you are like an old mother who sends her children to school early in the morning."

"It's not all because you stay up in bed," Shen Heqing almost laughed angrily, "Do you think you are still a child?"

Jiang Haiyan stuck out her tongue: "I was wrong, hurry up and help me pack my schoolbag! Mom!"

Shen Heqing laughed angrily: "Okay, hurry up and eat, the time is up, the guide is coming soon, you don't want to carry a bowl of noodles to the examination room..."

As soon as Shen Heqing finished speaking, a person emerged from their TV set alone.

While holding a bowl of noodles, Jiang Haiyan raised his head and asked the person who suddenly emerged from the TV, "Are you Cao Cao?"

The person who got out of Jiang Haiyan's TV is naturally the guide of Jiang Haiyan's exam. He is obviously not Zhu Lanhe who led Jiang Haiyan before, but an ordinary-looking man. , but the appearance is a bit strange, the body is slender and slender, but the head is a bit big, not only big, but also round, the hair is quite strong, but the roots are standing upright.

After hearing Jiang Haiyan's words, the man looked surprised: "How do you know I'm Cao Cao?"

Jiang Haiyan: "Pfft."

"Candidate No. 250, Jiang Haiyan, right? I'm your leader, responsible for leading you to the test site for the alliance's master license exam... By the way, how do you know my name?" This time The leader is obviously a chatterbox, and he is very curious.

But this time, Jiang Haiyan also heard clearly that what the guide said was Cao Cao, not Cao Cao, let alone Cao Cao, although there seemed to be no essential difference between Cao Cao and Cao Cao.

"Here, take it."

While the leader was talking, Shen Heqing stuffed a storage bag into Jiang Haiyan's hand.

1000 years ago, the storage bag was still a rare item, which can be called a rare commodity to live in, but now, almost everyone in the cultivation world has one, and even those demon pets with owners will carry a storage bag with them to store rations.

"What's inside?" Jiang Haiyan took it and weighed it with his hand, but it was only the weight of the storage bag.

"Eat," Shen He said with a faint smile, "Many people will take Bigu Dan, but for you... I have prepared a lot of snacks for you, and some cooked food that can be kept for a longer time." The thing is very advanced, but it is not as good as the space that can stop time in those comprehension novels. This storage bag also has time passing, and the food will still go bad.

"Pay attention to safety, be careful, I will come to you later."

Shen Heqing is also the leader of this martial arts test, so he can only join Jiang Haiyan after completing this task.

Jiang Haiyan blinked: "I see, Mom."
