Fairyland Food Column

"Your son is growing up very fast. The last time I saw him he was only this big." Yan Qi made a gesture, "Now he is this big."

Cheng Xi realized that Ying Long now looked like a six or seven-year-old child, and he didn't feel the change when he got along day and night before, so he replied vaguely, "The food in the fairy world is good, and the fairy spirit nourishes people."

"How did you bring a child to fly?" Yan Qi asked suddenly, looking at Cheng Xi's belly, "Could it be that you were born after you arrived in the fairy world? In fact, you are not brother Cheng but sister Cheng?"

"I picked it up." Cheng Xi could naturally hear that the second half of Yan Qi's sentence was a joke, so he answered concisely, "I picked it up after I ascended."

This is the truth, Ying Long was indeed picked up by Cheng Xi.

Yan Qi took a look at Ying Long and Cheng Xi, and they didn't look alike, so she guessed, "It may be a spiritual creature that has just transformed, but I can't feel the aura and can't see the real body."

After looking around for a while before giving up the idea of ​​seeing Yinglong's real body, Yan Qi took out a sign that looked like gold but not gold, wood and not wood, and pressed it in the air, "Here we are, come in."

Cheng Xi tentatively stretched out a hand, only to see a ripple in the air, and then the hand that went in disappeared, he hesitated for a while before walking in.

"This is Xuangui Inn." Yan Qi was the last to come in and introduced.

Cheng Xi let out an exclamation. In front of him was a round lake. The lake water was so clear that you could see all kinds of carp swimming around. These are not the main points. What really surprised Cheng Xi was an old turtle crouching in the center of the lake.

The tortoise is about five feet long. On the back of the tortoise is a towering old tree. The tree cover almost covers the entire back of the tortoise. If you look carefully, you can see that there is a two-story house under the shade of the tree. The trunk is from the roof of the house. Growing out, there are two lanterns hanging at the door of this house and a plaque with the four characters of Xuangui Inn.

Yan Qi patted Cheng Xi on the shoulder, she couldn't help but feel that Cheng Xi had never seen the world, even a small inn was amazed, "Follow me in."

Cheng Xi nodded, and couldn't wait to see the Xuangui Inn up close. He took Ying Long's hand and followed Yan Qi's footsteps to the lake.

I saw Yan Qi stepped on a lotus, and the scene of planting her foot into the lake did not appear, but she walked steadily on the lake, Sanmu had already trotted all the way to Xuangui On the back, Cheng Xi felt a little scared but closed his eyes and stood up.

"The bottom is paved with ten-colored mysterious stones, but it looks like there is no way through the scenery below." Ying Long shook Cheng Xi's hand as a gesture of comfort, and walked in front of Cheng Xi to show the way, so that he would not step on it. empty down.

The Xuangui Inn looks like it is only two floors high from the outside, but after walking in, it turns out that there is another world inside.The main entrance is a rockery that is as tall as a person. There is a miniature waterfall on the mountain that flows continuously into the pool below. Occasionally, golden carp jump out of the water.

Cheng Xi dragged his family and followed Yan Qi around the rockery, and only then did he truly enter the Xuangui Inn.

This Xuangui Inn is no different from the inn Cheng Xi lived in in the mortal world. There are also clever servants and handsome maids to entertain guests. The owner of Xuangui Inn is a beautiful woman, leaning against the counter , flicking the abacus carelessly with her slender fingers.

"Ms. She." Yan Qi walked over familiarly and put the guide sign that was used to open the door on the counter, "I'll bring two friends over and stay in my room."

Hearing this, She Man raised her eyes and looked at Yan Qi with a smile that was not a smile, "You don't need to pay the room fee to stay in my Xuangui Inn, and you have the nerve to bring others over? My Xuangui Inn is not a relief center."

"This... this..." Yan Qi's cheeks were a little reddened by these words, and she was speechless.

"I don't know if there is a kitchen in this inn?" Cheng Xi looked around the inn, thinking that the inn naturally has a kitchen, and it's okay to stay as a chef to earn some travel expenses.

She Man was a little confused by the word kitchen, "There is no kitchen in the inn, only tea room."

"How can an inn have no kitchen?" Cheng Xi blurted out, looking at She Man in disbelief.

Yan Qi pushed Chengxi embarrassingly, "You forgot, we've already been bigu."

She Man also ascended from the lower realms, and before he was successful in cultivation, he sneaked into human dwellings and ate food. However, no one has ever ascended through the kitchen, and this fairyland is either a born immortal or a bigu ascendant, so my inn naturally does not have a kitchen."

"Then my craftsmanship is useless." Cheng Xi said, "I thought I could support my family."

She Man thought for a while, "You cook a dish and try it, maybe it can be a selling point in the inn."

She Man came out from the counter, to be more precise, slid out of the counter, her lower body was a snake tail, the shiny black snake tail formed a stark contrast with her glamorous appearance.

Cheng Xi took a step back in fright, tightly grasped Ying Long's hand, and tried to keep a steady voice, "Okay... okay."

She Manduo glanced at Ying Long who was silent, and walked towards the back, "Follow me."

·

"Everything in my pantry has a history." She Man deftly rolled up the three eyes, who were sniffing and licking, with the tail of a snake, and threw them into her arms. The well-maintained nails ran across the back, and the three eyes Mu let out a comfortable whimper, "The water for making tea is Yaochi Yuwugen water, the firewood for the fire is century-old Xiangyuan wood, and the tea leaves are Wudao tea from Santuchuan."

She Man introduced the tea room, which is rarely seen in the entire fairyland, and looked at Cheng Xi, "What are you going to do?"

Cheng Xi said, "I don't have many ingredients, so I will make a jadeite lotus seed soup."

The main ingredient of the emerald lotus seed soup is the Qinxin Miaolian that was bought one get one free. The things in the fairy world are also strange. Cheng Xi peeled off the lotus seeds from the lotus and put them on the white jade porcelain plate. The emerald green lotus seeds collided with each other. There was a piano sound.

"Qin Xin Miao Lian usually only grows in places with music cultivation, listening to fairy music to grow, and over the years, there are qin scores engraved in it." She Man said to himself, "But Qin Xin Miao Lian generally no one dares to use it directly. It is because the aura is mixed with the impure rhythm and it is difficult to refine it, and the second is that it is more effective to refine it into a pill."

Cheng Xi pulled out the hibiscus knife to remove the shells of the lotus seeds one by one, and made a cross on the top of the white and tender lotus seeds, but did not pull out the lotus heart inside.Now that there is no kitchen utensils at hand, Cheng Xi can only make do with the kettle for making tea.The kettle was made of porcelain, and a carp was drawn on it. After crashing into the rootless water of the fairyland that She Man said, the carp actually swam on the surface of the pot as if alive.

When the water is boiling hot, pour a plate of lotus seeds into it, and the sound of gurgling water is covered by bursts of zither sounds.Fresh lotus seeds are easy to be cooked through. After closing the pot and rolling it for a while, Cheng Xi stirred the lotus seeds inside with a tea spoon to prevent the lotus seeds from sticking to the pot. It is an indescribable fragrance.

The lotus seeds inside are already ripe, and the opening that was cut before has been fully opened, revealing the emerald green lotus heart inside. Cheng Xi sprinkled some pink and white lotus petals into the teapot, and when the lotus petals softened into a ball, put the lotus seeds into a ball. The soup was poured into the teacup.

There are three lotus seeds in each teacup, which are placed at the bottom of the teacup in the shape of "pin". The top of the lotus seeds is a cross and the lotus heart is drilled out of it, like a blooming flower, and then decorated with a boiled lotus petal. Finally, pour the remaining yulu nectar on the water, and the yulu nectar will quickly dissolve in the water, making the lotus seed soup glow with a bright honey color.

Cheng Xi took the lead in picking up a cup of lotus seed soup, and blew it towards the surface of the water in one breath. After the heat dissipated slightly, he lowered his head and took a sip. The soup was not too sweet, but a delicious sweetness. For the fragrance of lotus, Cheng Xi picked up a lotus seed with a tea spoon and put it in his mouth. A trace of bitterness from the lotus heart that has not been eliminated in the recipe is mixed in it, not only does not appear bitter, but reconciles the two sweetnesses, making it even more memorable.

After Cheng Xi swallowed Qinxin Miaolian, a pleasant sound of the piano sounded in his ears, and he couldn't help sighing again at the wonder of the fairy world.

"I didn't know Qinxin Miaolian could do this. The aura didn't dissipate in the slightest. Comprehending the sound of the piano is twice the result with half the effort." She Man had already drank the emerald lotus seed soup in his cup, "It seems that a piece of piano outside my Xuangui Inn Xin Miaolian is really white."

"I seem to have some insights again." Yan Qi put down the empty cup, her eyes were far away, as if she was thinking about something.

Yinglong glanced at Sanmu who was holding his leg and begging for food, and fed him a spoonful of lotus seeds.

She Man stretched out his slender forked tongue and licked the corner of his mouth, and let out a hissing sound, "On behalf of the Xuangui Inn, I hired you as a chef, with a salary of three hundred spirit stones for seven days, is the price satisfactory?"

Cheng Xi compared the purchasing power of Lingshi, nodded, picked up the teapot and shook it, "But I need some kitchen utensils, I wonder where the tea utensils here are made to order?"

"Qiaoduotiangongfang, you can go there to customize the tools you want, and just put it in the account of my Xuangui Inn. I will arrange a kitchen for you as soon as possible." She Man said very generously, "Yan Qi, you bring this bit..."

"My surname is Cheng, and my single name is Xi." Cheng Xi said.

"This Mr. Chen is going to take a trip to the Craftsmanship." She Man unceremoniously instructed Yan Qi, who woke up from a sudden enlightenment, and rolled up her three eyes with a snake tail and put them in her arms. Help you look after."

"Then thank you Miss She." Cheng Xi thanked.
