I rely on food to dominate the two worlds

Just as Jiang Shaoyou expected, the wontons made by Tang Shaoyan, which contained abundant aura, quickly attracted the attention of major cultivation sects and aristocratic families. In the next few days, the number of people who came to Xuantianzong to participate in the sect gathering The numbers continued to increase, and even the northernmost Feixue Palace sent people here.

These people are not fools, so they naturally understand what spiritual food means to them.Spiritual food and spirit pills are actually similar in some respects, but the refining of spirit pills is not easy, it requires a lot of natural materials and treasures, and there is also the possibility of frying furnaces and failures, each one is worth a thousand gold.Although the effect of the spirit meal is not as fast and powerful as the spirit pill, it should not be underestimated. It is a great thing to be able to enjoy delicious food while practicing.

In just three days, Tang Shaoyan earned 50 yuan, and he still has hundreds of points. He can go to Zangshuge to choose a suitable exercise method for him.

"Go ahead and choose. If the points are not enough, I will transfer them to you." Jiang Shaoyou said to Tang Shaoyan.

"Thank you, brother."

The Zangshu Pavilion is a short square tower with four floors, guarded by three deacon disciples, and there are many magic circles.Disciples in the Qi refining stage can only enter the first and second floors, only disciples in the Foundation Establishment stage can enter the third floor, and only Jindan stage and above can enter the fourth floor. Even Jiang and Qin's two direct disciples can only enter. can stop at the third floor.

After Tang Shaoyan registered with the deacon disciple who was in charge of guarding the Cangshu Pavilion, he entered the Cangshu Pavilion.The Zangshu Pavilion is worthy of its name. There are hundreds of books neatly placed on rows of bookshelves, including basic exercises, formations, swordsmanship, pills, utensils and even talismans, etc. , each of which is varied and classified into its own category, disciples who are new to Zangshu Pavilion are often confused.

But before he entered Zangshu Pavilion, the master had already instructed him to choose a qi refining technique, preferably fire or wood, so that it fits with his own spiritual roots, and he started to practice. It will get twice the result with half the effort.

So Tang Shaoyan browsed directly in the basic skills area, and to his surprise, he found the Huo Xuan Book that he had read in Wanbaozhai here. It can be used to advance, attack, retreat, or defend. It can be used to resist attacks with a wall of fire, and it can also be used to build a sea of ​​​​fire with flames. It is the most suitable book for him at present.It's just that he also discovered another very good wood-type exercise--Wood Spirit Art.

This wood spirit formula has many benefits, the most important of which is that it can increase the power of the wood spirit in his body, absorb the spiritual energy of the world more quickly, and can pick leaves and flowers to hurt people invisible, and can also create illusions. To confuse the other party, and he thinks that wood-based exercises may also be helpful in refining ingredients.

Therefore, he hesitated again and again, and chose to exchange this wood spirit tactic.He can buy the Huo Xuan Book with spirit stones when he returns to the realm of comprehension. Wood Spirit Jue can only be exchanged for this book this year.

Transcribing requires [-] points. After Tang Shaoyan borrowed [-] points from Jiang Shaoyou, he completed the exchange.

Obtaining the exercises that suit him, Tang Shaoyan's purpose of this trip has been achieved. He decided to show his skills tonight, so that the master, uncle, and brother can have a good time. He plans to go back to City A tomorrow. Not here, Uncle and Brother Ziang must be very busy.

Because the only ingredients that contain spiritual energy in Xuantianzong are fish and vegetables, he decided to make a whole fish feast today, including steamed fish, dry roasted fish, Sichuan sweet fish, boiled fish, tomato fish soup and fresh fish soup.

As soon as he entered the kitchen, Xu Bin was already waiting there. He admired this little uncle very much. Every dish that came out of his hands was full of aura and tasted very good.

"Little uncle, what are you doing today? What materials do you need?"

"Make a whole fish feast." Tang Shaoyan smiled and said, "Please prepare more fish."

"no problem!"

Xu Bin helped Tang Shaoyan remove the scales, viscera and gills of the fish one by one, and then the slices that needed to be sliced, and the ones that needed to be cut with a knife, made Tang Shaoyan feel a lot easier.

Steamed fish pays attention to the umami taste of the fish itself. Just put a thin layer of salt on the belly of the fish, put scallions and ginger slices on the fish, and then pour a little rice wine to remove the fishy smell, and then put it in the drawer directly steamed.The steamed fish is fresh and tender, but the simple seasoning stimulates the original umami taste of the fish.

Dry-cooked fish needs to be cut with a cross-shaped knife, fried in oil until golden on both sides, and then set aside.Stir-fry the diced pork belly, shiitake mushrooms, winter bamboo shoots, carrots and bean paste, season with cooking wine, sugar and salt, then put the fish into a low heat and simmer, and pour the soup on the fish without using a spoon. When the soup in the pot is dried up to only a thin layer of bottom, it can be out of the pot.Pour the soup and sauce on the fish together. The sauce has a strong fragrance, and the red color makes people's index finger move just by looking at it.

The Sichuan sweet fish is grilled. First split the fish lengthwise, wipe the inside and outside with salt and cooking wine, sprinkle with pepper and cumin powder and marinate for a while, brush the marinated fish with oil on both sides, and put it in the oven Bake at 200 degrees for 15 minutes.Heat the oil on high heat, add the onion, ginger, garlic, etc. to sauté until fragrant, pour in the dried yellow sauce and bean paste and stir-fry until the aroma is released, then pour it on the fish, put it in the oven and bake it for about 10 minutes, and it is done.The burnt fish flavor accompanied by the rich aroma of the sauce is really mouth-watering.

Boiled fish needs to slice the fish, then put the bean sprouts, celery, fungus and other ingredients on the bottom, spread the fish fillets on top, sprinkle with pepper and dried chili, and finally pour boiling hot oil, which stimulates the spicy aroma. .The snow-white fish fillets are paired with bright red peppers and shiny hot oil. The combination of bright colors and overbearing spicy flavor is perfect.

The method of tomato fish soup is much more delicate. It is a cup made of tomatoes with the top cover cut off.Stir-fry the fish and onions cut into small pieces with butter, then add chopped tomatoes and sugar, add water to boil and put them in the tomato cup. The taste is sweet and refreshing, very tasty.

The fresh fish soup is stewed in a clear way, and the radish cut into small pieces is added to enhance the freshness. The radish is stewed crispy and rotten, showing a white and transparent shape, which complements the thick and pure white soup. The fish soup is delicious and mellow. The fish is delicate and tender, and it is really delicious.

In the end, I randomly fried two vegetarian dishes, and the fish feast was complete.

"Today's dishes are really rich. Is there something good to celebrate, little uncle?"

"It's not for celebration, it's for saying goodbye. I'm going back to City A tomorrow."

"Ah..." Knowing that Tang Shaoyan was leaving, Xu Bin's face collapsed. It was rare for him to meet someone who could cook with him, not to mention that the cooking made by this little uncle was very popular. The soul meal.

"Come to City A when you have time. I have a restaurant in City A. I'll treat you to dinner then." Tang Shaoyan said with a smile.

Xu Bin was silent for a while and said, "Little uncle, can you accept me as an apprentice?"

"What?" Tang Shaoyan looked at Xu Bin in astonishment.

"I want to learn cooking skills from my uncle." Xu Bin's cooking skills are all figured out by himself, without systematic study at all. Before the uncle came, he felt that his cooking skills were not bad. But after meeting the little master uncle, he discovered that this is the real cooking skill, and cooking skill can also be used as a way of cultivation.

"This..." Tang Shaoyan hesitated. After these two days of contact, he had a good impression of Xu Bin. His cultivation level is two small realms lower than Xu Bin's, so how can he become his master?

"I think it's pretty good." Jiang Shaoyou didn't know when he came to the door of the kitchen, and he heard the conversation between the two of them clearly, "Xu Bin has three spiritual roots of wood, fire, and earth. The roots are a bit messy, but they are still good seedlings. Don’t you need a helper in your store? He can just help you.”

"Is it really possible?" Tang Shaoyan was quite moved. He really needed some help. Xu Bin, who is also a cultivator and a disciple of the same sect, is really a very good candidate.

"Of course, there are many cultivation methods, and everyone can find a cultivation method that is more suitable for them. You are the only one who understands the spiritual chef, so you are naturally qualified to accept him as an apprentice.

"Then do I need to speak to Master?"

"Why bother Master with these trivial matters, just tell Senior Brother Qin."

"it is good!"

Xu Bin was very happy and said that he would wait here for good news from Tang Shaoyan.

Together with Jiang Shaoyou, Tang Shaoyan brought the food to Yuan Yi's yard.

Master Yuan Yi and Fang Yuze had been waiting in the yard for a long time, and even Senior Brother Qin Hai was sitting beside him drinking tea.Qin Hai was called by Fang Yuze. He worked hard for the sect's affairs every day, and Tang Shaoyan couldn't leave in the end without even tasting a delicious spiritual meal.

"Wow! It smells so good!" Fang Yuze took a deep breath, showing an intoxicated expression, Yuan Yi and Qin Hai also unconsciously focused their eyes on the rich dishes in front of them.

After everyone was seated, Fang Yuze couldn't wait to start eating. As the person with the highest seniority present, he should use his chopsticks first.

Fang Yuze took a bite of the brightest-looking dry-roasted fish, his face was intoxicated at first, then changed to a pitiful expression, and he looked at Tang Shaoyan, "Hey, little nephew, I really don't want you to go, if you go Now, what can I do...?"

Master Yuan Yi couldn't bear to see Fang Yuze's embarrassing appearance, and said coldly, "You have procrastinated long enough for Lingxi School's Zengling Pill and Tianyuanmen's Healing Pill. It's time to retreat and refine alchemy. At the next meeting, Shao Will come again.”

The implication is to let Fang Yuze retreat for three months, and when the next meeting is held, he will naturally be able to eat the delicacies made by Tang Shaoyan again.

"Ah..." Fang Yuze suddenly lost face.

It took Tang Shaoyan a lot of effort to hold back his laughter, his uncle's temperament is really cute.

The fish is delicious and tender, and each dish is cooked in a different way, giving the fish a completely different and delicious taste. Everyone is very satisfied with this whole fish feast.

Brother Qin also readily agreed to let Xu Bin learn to make spiritual meals with Tang Shaoyan. In his opinion, Xu Bin is indeed talented in cooking, and he can develop better with the younger brother.

In this way, Tang Shaoyan successfully got his first apprentice.
