Chapter 335 Birthday Banquet
Xu Xuan continued to listen and realized that in this long 999 years, in addition to the Eight Paints of Flower God, Helu Shuangxian had thirty-three disciples, of which twenty-three lived for more than 3,000 years, and became immortal; seven were expelled from the master for some reason; two died at the hands of Ao Wuming; and the last disciple, Ye Guang, was taken under the sect for more than ten years, but he was deeply favored by Grandma He. He actually rose up and was established as the young palace master early.
Today is not only the birthday of the two immortals of Helu, but also the happy day for Luguang to officially ascend to the position of the "Young Palace Master".
Although Helu Shuangxian is a twin sister and is both the lord of the Flower God Valley, they always like to argue with each other. Even if it is a big deal, they have to compete for right or wrong and distinguish between the superiority and inferiority. I don’t know whether it is He’s grandma who wants to establish Ye Guang as the young palace master, which has caused Grandma Lu’s opposition; or whether Grandma Lu dislikes Ye Guang and makes Grandma He’s forced Grandma He to establish her. In short, these two old monsters are competing for this.
Grandma He made great efforts and took advantage of the birthday celebration to invite all the guests from the 72 caves of Huashen Valley to publicly establish the young palace master; Grandma Lu suddenly changed her course and did not stop it, which made Grandma He even more suspicious, not knowing what she was selling in the gourd. It was not until the guests gathered and had three rounds of wine that Grandma Lu suddenly announced that she would make Princess Jinhua the young palace master. This Princess Jinhua was a disciple who was expelled from the sect by Grandma He six hundred years ago.
Xu Xuan seemed familiar with the name "Golden Flower Princess", but he couldn't remember who it was. He heard from all the girls that this woman had a noble life and often presented various rare treasures to the "Crane and Deer Immortals", so she was deeply favored by the greedy fairy of wealth, but because of breaking the love precepts, the Crane Fairy was furious and was driven out of the master. This time, in order to go against her sister, Fairy Deer actually brought her back.
Two old monsters faced each other in front of the guests, with tit-for-tat momentum, and there was a momentum of thunder and earth about to break out. No wonder Bashu was uneasy. Hearing that "Ao Wuming" was approaching, he did not dare to send Xu Xuan rashly.
Wei Yan wiped her tears and sobbed, "It's all my fault. She didn't have the ability to cook dishes that suited her grandma's wishes, which made her embarrassed in front of so many customers. If...If..." She choked up a few times and couldn't help but burst into tears.
Fanhua sighed and said, "Seventh Sister, how can you blame you for this? If you want to blame, you have to blame Sister Jinhua. In order to please her grandma, she brought the imperial chefs from the nine countries of the Western Regions to cook for the guests in public... But she didn't know that the more delicious her food was, the more she dispelled her face. The grandma was so angry that she gave her anger on you..."
He turned to the girls and smiled bitterly, "So Grandma drove us back, and ordered nine dishes to be cooked within one hour, and overwhelmed Sister Jinhua's nine imperial chefs. But all the dishes were prepared long ago. In such a short time, how could we have time to push them down and start over?"
The girls looked at each other and forgot Xu Xuan for a moment. Xunhuan pondered: "Grandma had known the menu before. If we had asked us to cook it again, we must know that it was not as good as the imperial chef brought by Jinhua, and was disgraced by the second grandma. Seventh sister, do you have any dishes that grandma had never tasted before, and can prepare it within one hour?"
Wei Yan shook her head with red eyes and said, "Grandma has to rotate all three meals a day, so how can I save any new recipes?"
Mu Hua said: "Since that's the case, don't think too much. Just find some rare things that my grandma hasn't tasted much in the ready-made ingredients. Mix it up randomly, and maybe you can even win..."
Xu Xuan's thoughts moved slightly and blurted out: "If you want to win a surprise, how can you use rare ingredients? You must use common things, the more ordinary, the better."
The girls were stunned, and Yanshi sneered: "What do you know about a flower picker who steals medicine? If you nod, you will use you as a human meat bun!"
Xu Xuan pretended to be frightened and said, "Yes, the villain overestimates himself and talks nonsense. But this is not what the villain says, it is just a gossip that the villain heard from the old chef he met. It is said that he was the imperial chef of the Song Dynasty. After the city of Tokyo was broken, he went into exile and fled to Kunlun." However, he had made up his mind to take advantage of this god-given opportunity to use the recipe as bait to induce them to offer their own love-forgetful grass step by step.
"Ordinary common ingredients, ordinary common ingredients..." Fanhua muttered softly several times, his eyes shining, and he turned to stare at him, "Did this old imperial chef teach you how to cook?"
Xu Xuan scratched his head and said, "I am a herb collector, he is a cook. He is like a mountain, how could he learn to cook for no reason? But he saw that I had no father or mother and was very pitiful, so he often sent me some leftovers to fill my stomach. I often went to his kitchen and gave him some medicinal materials. After I had been there for a long time, I saw that he had cooked a lot of dishes."
The girls were helpless at this moment, and they treated the dead horse as living horses. They asked him what he had tried and saw the old chef's special skills.
Xu Xuan pretended to think hard for a moment and clapped his hands, "Yes! Once, the caravan of the Song Dynasty came to Kunlun to buy medicine and tasted the old chef's 'fried cypress dishes'. He praised it all, saying that it was far better than the famous chefs in Lin'an. This dish was no longer simple and could be prepared in a short time."
Before he woke up, he was suddenly excited and urged him to speak the recipe.
Xu Xuan said: "Do you have cabbage, vermicelli, tofu, and meatballs? It is best to make venison, pork, beef, mutton, and chicken. Roll the meat into balls, add some crab roe and dried scallops, marinate it with spices, and fry it thoroughly with tofu. Then put the cabbage and vermicelli into chicken soup and cook it, add onion, ginger, coriander, and cook it."
I heard that it was really some ordinary dishes, and the girls were slightly disappointed.
Fanhua said: "It is the real time to cook ordinary ingredients. We must be punished at all times and vertically, so let's try it!" She was obviously a disciple of the chef of the Eight Swords of Flower Gods, and directed the girls to prepare various ingredients in an orderly manner, and according to what Xu Xuan said, cooking and cooking step by step.
After a minute, the meat in the pot was filled with fragrance and drooling. Wei Yan scooped a small spoon and tasted it for a while. Her face turned red and she was surprised and happy. When the girls saw this, they scrambled to taste it.
The meatballs are crispy on the outside and rotten on the inside, melt in the mouth, and are delicious; fried tofu, cabbage, vermicelli... These extremely ordinary ingredients absorb chicken soup, crab roe, and gravy, and can produce layers of flavor at the tip of the tongue, which changes endlessly.
The girls have lived in Huashen Valley for a long time and have eaten the exquisite carved clams. They have never tasted the deliciousness of such crude dishes. They feel that they are unique and overwhelmed with surprise.
Before he woke up, he clapped and said, "It's so wonderful! Eighth sister, I didn't expect that your flower-picking thief would make a contribution..."
Yan Shi said, "What is 'my flower picking thief'? If you hadn't protected him, he would have been made into a flower fat by me. If you want to reward merits, you have to praise you."
Seeing that there was a turning point, the girls were in a good mood and started to joke again.
Only Mu Hua said coldly with expressionless face: "Mr. Zhen, we lack eight dishes besides this dish. Do you still remember that old chef has any other specialty dishes?"
Xu Xuan sighed and said, "Dear fairies, the villain has never had a good memory. I heard that he would be made into flower fat, so I was so scared that my seven souls had gone away. I couldn't remember anything for a while. If I could eat some good wine and dishes, I might be able to remember them one by one..."
Yanshi robbed and said, "Sister Fanhua, don't talk to him. Just give him a few mouthfuls of real soup and you will know everything."
"Fairy, let's go, the villain suddenly remembered it all," Xu Xuan said with a frown, "The old chef has a 'early oriole fighting for warming trees', which uses oriole to make croakers. It tastes so beautiful. I see that there are many birds here, so it must be easy to cook this dish."
The girls quickly caught ninety-nine yellow birds, just fresh and fat. As he ordered, they removed the hair and dirty, scrubbed with wine, wiped it with soft cloth, cut it open from the back, filled dozens of spices such as chopped green onions, peppers, etc. into their belly, then put it upside down, and placed it in the clay pot layer by layer, then stir-fry the remaining spices in boiling oil, and poured them into the can along with cooked sesame oil, salt, wine, and nectar into the can, which was about an inch past the yellow birds.
Xu Xuan said with a "ah" and said, "Oh, I forgot that you only have one hour. The oriole is marinated, but it must be soaked in the flavor. It can only be steamed in the steamer at least ten days or half a month. Unless...unless..."
He deliberately asked for it and shook his head, stopped talking, and waited for the six women to ask, and then led them to take the bait and tell the news about the Forgetful Grass.
Unexpectedly, the six girls looked at each other and smiled, and said happily: "Mr. Zhen, one day outside the mountain is a full month in our mountain. What's the difficulty if time passes faster? Think about whether there are any other delicacies, I'll go." Put the pottery jar into a copper box with a square outside and round inside, and lifted it out of the hanging pavilion.
The girls urged Xu Xuan to recall other recipes. Fortunately, he had been frugal since he was a child and ate all kinds of delicacies in Lin'an. He had all kinds of delicacies and had many famous chefs at home, including many chefs who had served as imperial chefs. Although he had never cooked himself, he was knowledgeable and familiar with the cooking process of various delicacies. At this time, he picked it up casually and quickly combined several famous dishes made of ordinary ingredients. It was just how to induce the girls to offer their own love-forgetful grass without arousing suspicion. It was really a big trouble.
He was instructing the girls how to cook the fourth dish "Deer Eats Wild Apples", Xunhuan rode a bird back again. He opened the lid of the box and the strong fragrance was so strong that the ninety-nine yellow birds in the jar had been pickled enough.
Xu Xuan suddenly realized that he understood why Ao Wuming said, "One month in the mountains, one day outside the mountains, and you have ten or half a month left to find the Forgetful Grass." It turns out that the time inside and outside the Kunlun barrier is so different! Since this is the case, there is no rush to avoid being alarmed and backfired.
Now that I was cheering up, I didn’t mention forgetting love grass, and focused on helping the six Shu prepare dishes. When the jar of the yellow croaker and the ninth dish "Slim Hand-Sliced Crab Stir-Filled New Orange" were steamed together, it just happened to be an hour.
The girls were so happy that they hurriedly hurriedly hid Xu Xuanzang into the cabinet, opened the door, and ordered the maids to cover nine dishes with jade bowls, and rode birds to the Lord's Hall of the Blessed Palace.
