Mu Yungao held up the No. [-] lottery and showed it to the audience proudly. Everyone saw how lucky he was today, as if he had already won more than half of it.

Brother Dong shrank his fingers suddenly, and he said anxiously: "Brother Yu has lost the opportunity, the big guy opposite will definitely choose the fish body!"

Liu Yuanwai glanced down and took his hand quietly. This time, his fingers were interlocked. Brother Dong couldn't retract his fingers restlessly. He comforted: "Brother Yu's cooking skills can't be trusted. , just wait and see!"

Lin Shiyou's face was calm with his hands behind his back, but he just looked at Li Yu's back with heavy eyes.

Standing on the stage, Li Yu straightened her back and rolled up her cuffs to reveal her white wrists. She leaned against the table in a relaxed manner, and seemed not to be affected by the other party at all.

Some people also noticed the difference in the state of the two, and shouted loudly: "Hey, look at that brother, why is he not nervous at all, is there really something wrong?"

An old man at the side looked on tiptoe, "Who knows, we haven't heard of such a character before, but if ordinary people confront Mu Yun, I'm afraid they can't be so calm."

"Just now you said that you bet on Mu Yun, I have a lot of money, my lord, and I bet on Li Yu to win, maybe today he is a dark horse and I can make another fortune!"

"Since Prince Wang has spoken, I'll make a bet, but I have to wait and see first, I can't see anything!"

There were endless quarrels from the audience, and the manager ignored them, took back the lottery and said to Mu Yun, "Let's choose the first lottery first."

Most people shouted "fish body" for him to choose, Mu Yun frowned and thought for a while, finally nodded, "I want fish body."

The fish head naturally belonged to Li Yu.

The competition in this group cannot exceed one hour. If the dishes are not finished within the time limit, they will automatically forfeit and the other side will win. The purpose of this competition system is to allow players to perform on the spot and test their true level.

Li Yu secretly thought that this situation is not bad, people don't like to eat fish head maybe because there is no meat on it.

But it can make many kinds of dishes, such as charcoal-grilled fish head, chopped pepper fish head, fish head soup, etc. But what is the best way to win this round of competition?

Holding the handle of the knife still, he glanced around the condiment area and the side dish area, and Mu Yun on the opposite side had already started sharpening the knife.

Li Yu didn't want to delay too much. There are all kinds of small peppers in the side dish area, so let's make a fish head with chopped peppers.

Mu Yun was sharpening his knife, but he couldn't tell what kind of food he was going to cook. Could it be that he just wanted to show off his knife skills?

Sure enough, when the crowd was noisy, he grabbed the tail of the fish with his right hand and threw it into the air, and swiped the knife with his left hand a few times. When he closed the knife, a fish had been divided into several small pieces, each of which was the same size .

Li Yu watched from the side and secretly marveled, this guy's knife skills are really amazing!

The people were dazzled by the sight, and Qi Qi raised his hands and clapped his hands to cheer him. The prince who spoke just now kept tapping his palms with a folding fan, "Good! It's indeed Saibei Crazy Saber!"

Mu Yun first glanced at the crowd, then stared straight at Li Yu for a moment, then grinned provocatively and let out a cold snort. This is his special skill, and everyone in the county admires it. , no matter who saw it, he would be intimidated by him!Not to mention the delicate little brother on the opposite side!

He was proud, and the braids on his head seemed to be curled up. Unexpectedly, Li Yu looked away after just looking at it for a moment, and his expression didn't change much.

Mu Yun made fun of himself, spat secretly and started cooking.

Li Yu unhurriedly cut the fish head from the middle and cleaned it, put ginger slices on it and some salt and wine.Then chop up the small chili you just got to fully distribute the spiciness.Then put oil in the pan, add scallions and minced garlic to sauté until fragrant, pour in crushed peppers and stir-fry for a while, spread the fried peppers evenly on the fish head, put them in a large pot aside and steam until cooked.After finishing this step, he breathed a sigh of relief and stopped for a moment to quietly observe Mu Yun's steps.

Although the fish was cut into pieces by him, it seemed that he hadn't figured out how to do it. His thick and powerful hands were grabbing around, and he crushed a few pieces of fish, and the spectators in the audience gradually showed confusion. , What is Mu Yun doing here, cold dish?

Brother Dong watched with enthusiasm, pulled Yuanwai's sleeve and said, "What kind of food does that big guy cook? You don't look like a cook in that posture?"

Member Liu was also puzzled, so he sprinkled some salt and chili powder on the fish, and followed Li Yu's example and put it in the steamer.

The people below couldn't figure it out, so they watched the ground more carefully. After a while, Li Yu's fish head was almost ready to be steamed.Li Yu placed the chopped green onion on the fish head and finally burned two tablespoons of hot oil in a pan and poured it all over the fish head with a sound of "Zi la". .

A child sniffed vigorously, then moved to the edge of the stage again, "Mother, this smells delicious!"

"I smell it too, and I want to taste it too!"

"I didn't expect Yutou to do this, it looks spicy!"

Li Yu's side is already ready, he wiped his hands with a clean towel, and waited for his opponent Mu Yun's dishes to come out of the pot with one hand on his hip.

Mu Yun made a soy sauce and vinegar sauce, and it seemed that the steamed fish had to be dipped in the sauce before eating.The crowd was noisy. Seeing that Li Yu had already made it, he couldn't help becoming impatient, staring at the steamer with his brows tightly furrowed, guessing that it was cooked, he immediately lifted the lid and brought it out.

People in the audience pushed and tiptoed to look at the tables, all wanting to see the appearance of the dishes. Li Yu's fish head with chopped peppers was better, the red peppers were all over the plate, and the surface was still pale With a layer of red oil, and green onion embellishment, it is naturally full of color and fragrance.

On the other hand, the steamed fish made by Mu Yun, the water in which the white meat was steamed collapsed, only saw that he put some salt on it, but didn't use white wine to remove the fishy smell, and smelled it carefully, there was still a fishy smell.

Seeing that the two contestants were all ready, the steward struck the gong and put the two dishes on a tray, after which a waiter came out of the room and took them away.

This is for the sake of fairness and justice. The referees and the person serving the dishes in the room do not know which player each dish comes from, but just taste it and score the winner to determine the winner.

The masters of the yamen and the head hunters are both judges, so their research on food is naturally not as good as that of the restaurant owners.

But the two dishes can be distinguished from the appearance, and then taste the taste. The fish head and fish meat with chopped peppers are soaked in the aroma of peppers, and there is a burnt taste from hot oil. After only one bite, the mouth is full With the spicy taste, the tip of the tongue is numb and crispy. After chewing for a while, the spicy taste gradually dissipates, leaving only the fresh smell of fish. It is indeed a good dish.

The other steamed fish dish was a bit worse. The fish was old and had a fishy smell, and the earthy smell couldn't be covered up even if dipped in the sauce.

Several judges were concerned, and wrote down the names of the winning dishes.The waiting time is the most tormenting, and the outsider suggested: Why not predict who will win? "

Gradually, some boos began to appear from the audience, "Sword skills are so good, this dish is not good!" Another man with a beard clenched his fists and said sharply: "What do you know, knife skills are the best?" The important thing is that the taste is edible!You can go to the game! "

"It's not exactly what you said. Naturally, the food must be complete in color, fragrance and taste to be considered high-grade. I think my bet on this treasure is right." Wang Gongzi waved his folding fan leisurely and gave a provocative smile to the people next to him.

"I bother!"

Li Yu was bored waiting on the stage, and turned to look for Lin Shiyou's figure. The tall and handsome Xianggong was easy to recognize in the crowd, and he was standing obliquely behind the stage.As soon as he turned his head, he met Lin Shiyou's gentle eyes. Li Yu subconsciously raised his eyebrows. His eyes were as dark and clear as black grapes. Every time he blinked, Lin Shiyou's heart trembled.

The eyes of the two met across the crowd, they were clearly not close, but they seemed to be entangled together. The more Lin Shiyou looked at him, the more tender his eyes became, and suddenly Li Yu also laughed, and silently opened his mouth to say a few words to him. Word, Lin Shiyou raised the corners of his lips and nodded slightly.

Xiao Yu just said, "Sir, I'm sure I'll win."

After a quarter of an hour, the people in the room came out with the results.The person in charge took a glance, and then glanced at the people on and off the stage. Everyone had curiosity and excitement on their faces, and their eyes were fixed on him for a moment. The audience also made a bet, and whether they win or lose depends on the piece of paper in his hand.

The manager suppressed the corners of his mouth and cleared his throat, and said loudly: "I will announce that the winner of this group is No. 77 Li Yu, and the winning dish is chopped pepper fish head."

As soon as the words fell, there was a lot of noise from the audience, more sighs and boos. Those who were optimistic about Mu Yun before the game are now green with regret. They have bet so much money. It's useless, and it's almost as good as bluffing people!

"I didn't expect Li Yu to be really good at it. He could come up with a dish on the spot, and the fish head can be made into a hard dish!"

"I was right to listen to the prince just now, why didn't I bet more money!" A short man slapped his thigh, "I don't even have good eyesight!"

"Mu Yun was unlucky to meet someone capable. I really want to taste that fish head. I've never heard of it before!"

"Me too. Only the referees have tried it. We don't have that chance."

Li Yu listened to everyone's discussions calmly. He thought to himself that the competition in the county was well designed to ensure fairness to the greatest extent. A showman like Mu Yun, who can't make excellent knife skills and delicious dishes, can't win.

Thinking of this, he shook his head, bowed to the audience and was about to leave when a rough voice shouted, "Why did you win? I don't accept it."

This voice successfully tripped him. Mu Yun was still looking like he was determined to win just now, but he seemed to be unable to accept the result after hearing the result. At this moment, his eyes were red, and he was staring at Li Yu angrily.

He was really unconvinced, he had practiced hard for so many years before he became a good swordsman, killing pigs and cattle is no problem, throwing a knife into the sky at will can kill a bug, and the butcher shop he opened is also booming , in the county town of Nuo Da, he is considered well-known, and even the big guys support him, how could he lose to this little-known brother.

"It's simple."

Li Yu glanced back at him, not only was not frightened by his appearance, but instead paced in front of him, Mu Yun only felt that he was staring at him for a moment, his sharp gaze seemed to have pierced through his inner thoughts.

Although there was no superfluous expression on Li Yu's face, following the sound of his footsteps, Mu Yun had the illusion of being pressed by every step. He held the handle of the knife and wanted to take a step back, but he held back.

"Your knife skills are really superb, but I said before the competition that cooking skills are more about the taste of the dishes than just the knife skills." Li Yu said calmly: "Otherwise, when everyone mentions you Do they all praise knife skills instead of cooking skills?"

Li Yu didn't say much so far, Mu Yun's eyes narrowed for a moment of confusion, and when he turned to leave, his eyes widened, his body stiffened for a moment, and the hand holding the knife trembled slightly.

The discussions among the crowd gradually died down. Mu Yun's face was pale and he stood there blankly, while Li Yu stepped down from the stage and squeezed his way out of the crowd to a young man.

"Brother Yu is really good. I was still sweating when you picked the fish head just now. As expected, you won beautifully!"

Brother Dong's face was flushed with excitement, and Liu Yuanwai looked at him with a smile, and reached out to brush the strands of hair from his ears behind his ears.

Li Yu replied with a smile: "I also came up with it on the spot. I will make this dish again another day for everyone to try."

"This match is really difficult. I don't know how to compare the next two rounds?" Li Yu leaned against Lin Shiyou, feeling a little worried.

"It's okay, let's just let nature take its course and do our best." Lin Shiyou ignored the eyes of others, kissed his forehead lightly, and teased: "Today's bet has won again, this time it's a lot, enough There are 50 taels, all thanks to Xiao Yu!"

Li Yu was so coaxed by his few words that his brows and eyes were wide open, and the corners of his lips twitched and raised uncontrollably. He had said a long time ago that gambling is really a profitable business!
