I am not a trainer

Master Haiyue lost to an unknown rookie in the breeder world, which caused quite a stir in the circle.

Someone with good intentions released a video of Luo He making "Pagoda Meat" on the Internet yesterday, and the number of views quickly exceeded 10,000.

"This dish is actually made of wax gourd? It's amazing!"

"He can still make miniature carvings on the dishes?"

"This knife is outrageous!"

"As we all know, the trainer is just a side job, and the chef is the old line of the rookie king!"

That night, after the culinary art competition was all over, Luo He received a call from Xia Miao.

"Can you talk about your feelings about defeating a powerful enemy and obtaining the right to be the chef of the 'Stove Sacrifice Ceremony'?"

Xia Miao imitated the tone of the hostess and asked solemnly.

Luo He followed up the conversation:

"Thanks to the Hunter Club for giving me the opportunity to participate in this culinary competition, and thanks to the organization for cultivating me..."

In a paragraph, he thanked the two organizations, and he did not leak water. Chef Luo gave him a thumbs up for his EQ.

"Well, there is no need to show loyalty at this time."

Xia Miao interrupted with a smile, a little curious, and said, "I said, where did you learn this kind of knife skills? Have you eaten the fruit of the chef's move?"

Luo He's 'Winter Melon Pagoda Meat' showed extremely high attainments in knife skills, and Xia Miao thought to herself that it would be difficult for her to compare with it.

But knife skills have always needed to be accumulated bit by bit. Luo He is only eighteen years old, how did he master such amazing knife skills?

Luo He used the old-fashioned rhetoric: "I have awakened the talent related to cooking."

Xia Miao accepted this statement and didn't go into it. After all, her accomplishments in the field of spices are closely related to the talent of the trainer.

Immediately, Xia Miao talked about Luo He's performance in this mission, and said with a smile:

"Comrade 'Sly Rabbit' performed outstandingly in this operation. I will report your results to the leader in time and give you a credit."

Luo He's heart skipped a beat, and he faintly felt that his position in the Hunter Club was almost higher than his position in the Ninth Bureau.

Boss Silver Fox, close the internet cafe quickly.

If this goes on like this, I will become the fifth one besides the Four Heavenly Kings!

"What should I do next?" Luo He asked.

"According to the official arrangement, host the stove sacrifice ceremony, and report to me in time if you find valuable information."

Xia Miao said lazily: "Of course, you don't worry about being exposed..."

"In case you really encounter a situation, the organization will support you!"

Although this is just a big picture, it still sounds very heartwarming.

Luo He said sincerely: "Thank you, King Xia!"

Xia Miao smiled and said, "You're welcome, let's sleep together when you have time."

After hanging up the contact, Luo He began to seriously prepare for tomorrow's "stove sacrifice" itinerary.

[Stove King Grand Festival] The reason for setting up the "cooking competition" project is to select the chef who is responsible for cooking the "stove food".

Luo He took out the basalt board, caressed the delicate jade-like anvil surface, and murmured:

"Tomorrow's meal, whether we can satisfy Mr. Stove depends on our performance."

Xuanwu board currently has two confirmed abilities: the power of Xuanwu that increases the nutrition and taste of ingredients, and restrains the blood of turtles and snakes.

There is also an ability of "invulnerability to a hundred poisons", which Luo He is not sure about. It may not be clear until the space level is improved and it is more closely connected with the Xuanwu board.

Generally speaking, this legendary kitchen utensil is the secret weapon for Luo He to preside over the stove sacrifice ceremony.

"Hey~" Xiao Jiu raised his paw beside him, indicating that he also has a share.

Luo He was slightly taken aback, and said with a smile: "That's right, you'll have to control the fire tomorrow."

According to legend, Zao Jun loves sweets, and the sweet and sticky Zao Tang is his favorite.

I will cook a sweet meal for Mr. Stove according to Xiaojiu's taste!

The next day, early morning.

Luo He came to the outskirts of the city and joined Master Miaoxi and Cheng Ankang.

Before, the three of them were only discussing the distribution of the "Wang Jie's move fruit" online, and they had no personal relationship offline, so it was also the first time for Cheng Steward to talk to Luo He.

"Mr. Luo." The man in the tuxedo behaved decently, and greeted: "My lady often mentions your name. When I saw you today, you are indeed a talent."

Luo He was a little puzzled, hesitantly said: "Your lady? Who are you?"

"My lady's surname is Jiang and her name is Yue Nuan. I have caused you a lot of trouble before, and I would like to express my apologies to you again."

Cheng Butler said modestly: "I am currently serving as Jiang's butler, so I have heard a lot about your deeds."

It turned out to be the housekeeper of "Jiang · Driving into a tree · Moon Nuan".

Luo He came to a sudden, awe-inspiring, said: "It's a pleasure to meet you, Master Cheng."

"You don't dare to be a master, just call me Butler Cheng."

Luo He didn't know why a master breeder volunteered to be a housekeeper, and there must be something hidden in it.

Seeing that he was modest and polite, and that he was much older than himself, Luo He chatted: "If you don't mind, let me call you Uncle Cheng, we will have to cooperate later."

Steward Cheng stopped giving way, and said with a smile, "With you in charge, this sacrifice to the stove will surely go well."

While chatting, Xia Sunian arrived hurriedly, and coughed lightly:

"Sorry, I'm late, it took me a while on the road."

"The three of you, please go to the ruins with me, first look at the surrounding situation, and then we will discuss the specific arrangements for the sacrificial stove." Xia Sunian said.

Luo He said: "That is to say, the stove sacrifice ceremony will be held in the ruins?"

Xia Sunian shook his head and said, "The stove sacrifice ceremony is held near the outside of the ruins. On the way, I will explain the origin of this [Stove Lord Sacrifice] in detail, so that everyone can understand this stove sacrifice ceremony better."

Saying that, Xia Sunian called out a compass-shaped beast, and carefully looked at the direction indicated on the compass.

This kind of beast is called "compass instrument", it has the ability to find the way, and it has a unique performance in the field of Fengshui and Qi. It is a must-have pet for Fengshui masters.

Xia Sunian picked up the compass and let it float in the sky to guide the way.

On the other hand, he and the three of Luo He explained the cause and effect of this Zaojun Grand Sacrifice.

After hearing the ins and outs, Luo He said in surprise:

"A statue of Zaojun was unearthed in the ruins of Emperor Nong?"

Xia Sunian nodded and said, "Yes, and this is the first time the statue of Zao Jun has been discovered, and this news has not been announced to the outside world yet."

"The excavation of the statue of the Kitchen God is of great importance. To avoid disasters and pray for blessings, this festival of the Kitchen God is held."

Xia Sunian said, "In the festival, the 'stove sacrifice' is the most critical part."

"Sacrificing the stove is also called sending the stove. You need stove candy, stove cakes and other sacrificial food to complete the ceremony of sending the stove and let the spirit of the stove king return to heaven."

"In short, three people are needed to cook suitable sacrificial food to ensure smooth delivery to the stove." Xia Sunian said.

Luo He was faintly excited.

The statue of Kitchen God?

Statues are different from portraits, and there is a great possibility of residual spiritual consciousness.

Even if it was only the remaining divine consciousness, it was undoubtedly the spirit of the Kitchen God.

In other words, today's stove sacrifice ceremony is very likely to meet the real stove king!

"Mr. Xia Sunian, can we see the statue of Zao Jun?" Luo He asked.

"This, I need to go to the superior for approval first, and I believe it can be done after the stove sacrifice ceremony is over." Xia Sunian said.

Luo He nodded and thought to himself:

"Senior Turtle is still drinking hot water at home, it's too late to call him."

"If I can really see Mr. Zao again, I don't know how happy this little fanboy will be!"

Half an hour later, everyone came to a ruin outside the city.

The site has been turned into a protected area, and a temporary research institute has been built.

"This is the recently discovered ruins of Emperor Nong." Xia Sunian introduced, "According to our team's research, the ruins are mainly used to enshrine the Zao Lord under the command of Emperor Nong."

Leading the crowd to a cave with traces of survey, Xia Sunian said: "The stele and statue of Zaojun were found around this cave."

Luo He glanced at the cave.

There is no light in the dark hole, exuding a mysterious atmosphere.

"Are we going deep into the cave?" Luo He asked.

"The stove sacrifice ceremony is held outside the cave."

Xia Sunian looked down at the ground, and immediately said: "We will arrange the exterior into a suitable venue, and then we need three people to cook on site, so that the Kitchen God can taste the food offered by the kitchen at the first time."

"When does the stove sacrifice start?" Cheng Butler asked.

Xia Sunian raised his hand to take down the compass floating beside him, like a Feng Shui master surveying auspicious times, then looked up at the sky:

"The three of you, please discuss what you are going to do first. At dusk, when the sun is about to set, the stove sending ceremony will be held."

The food for offering sacrifices to stove mainly includes stove sugar, stove cake, stove soup, stove pastry and so on.

After discussion, Luo He was in charge of making stove candies and stove cakes; Master Miaoxi was in charge of making vegetarian soup; Uncle Cheng was in charge of making cakes and sending off dumplings.

The layout of the site continued in an orderly manner, and in the afternoon, an altar was set up outside the cave.

There is a long table covered with red cloth on the altar, and there is currently nothing on the table.

But the three of Luo He were already on standby in front of the stove under the altar, waiting for the auspicious time to arrive.

In addition to the three of them and Xia Sunian, there were many archaeologists and scientific researchers waiting nervously.

The sun gradually slanted, and the first afterglow of the setting sun shone on the cave.

In the bottomless depths of the cave, there seemed to be a flash of light in an instant.

"Today I respectfully congratulate and present it to you. Nine Heavens East Chef Commander Stove Lord, make your vows, send Gao Zhen away, and leave grace to bless you."

After Xia Sunian read and finished offering sacrifices to the Kitchen God, he said:

"Start the stove!"

The light of the summoning array shone in the field, like a fiery red glow coloring the earth.

Luo He said: "Xiao Jiu, light a fire!"

Xiao Jiu took a deep breath and exhaled suddenly.

In an instant, the stove burns brightly!

Luohe first made stove cakes.

A piece of skin is crispy to the point of dregs, wrapped in layers of sesame paste, and a mouthful of brown sugar is eaten in one bite. It is delicious, soft and delicious.

Brown Sugar Sesame Sauce Biscuits.

First add warm water and yeast powder to the milk, then add peanut oil and the adjusted milk liquid to the flour, and knead it into a smooth dough by hand.

While waiting for the dough to rise.

Luo He poured the white sesame seeds into the frying pan, fried them until they turned slightly yellow, turned off the heat and put them out for later use, then added the sesame paste with salt and honey to make a secret sauce.

After the dough is sent out, it is the turn of the basalt board to appear.

In the process of kneading the dough, the base of the basalt board is slightly shiny, the edges of the emerald pattern are as bright as night pearls, and the black center is matte.

It is said that the energy provided by the kitchen utensils is added to the ordinary dough, making the surface of the dough smoother and whiter.

Luo He rolled the dough with a rolling pin on a chopping board as smooth as jade, spread the prepared sesame sauce evenly and sprinkled brown sugar on it.

Immediately roll and stretch, roll into long strips, cut into small pieces, press into the shape of sesame seed cakes, and brush the surface with water and sesame seeds.

Finally, it is pasted on the upper wall of the sesame seed oven and baked slowly by the fire.

During the roasting process, Luo He set up a new stove and prepared to make "stove sugar".

Zaotang is usually sticky and sweet maltose, and there are many types such as Tanggua and Kanto.

But Luo He felt that he could follow Xiao Jiu's taste and replace the traditional stove sugar with sweets.

Ask Xiao Jiu what his favorite sweets are.

That is undoubtedly the earliest sugar dish I made, the glazed snake fruit.

Glass dishes, strictly speaking, belong to a kind of shredded vegetables.

The sticky sugar shreds of candied cabbage are exactly the same as stove candy.

Luo He has cooked "Glass snake fruit" countless times, and even Xiao Jiu is familiar with the heat required for cooking this dish.

The red snake fruit is cut into small pieces on the basalt board, boiled on fire to make the sugar color, and then the fruit pieces are put into it.

Luo He stared at the caramel-soaked, crystal-clear and bright fruit pieces soaked in the hot pan, his eyes flickering slightly.

This dish can be said to be my best dessert, and there is no possibility of improving the technique.

But in terms of external conditions, there is still room for improvement!

"Xiao Jiu." Luo He passed through the pet beast space and ordered: "Yan Tian Commander!"

The stove fire suddenly turned from orange to golden.

In this inheritance from Zao Jun, there is a culinary insight.

In the past, Zao Jun used this trick of the Nine Heavens Commander to provide a stove fire for Nong Di, who was cooking colorful soup.

Right now, the brighter stove fire has provided this glazed snake fruit dish with the "pot gas" that is highly valued in Donghuang's cooking techniques, adding a taste to it!

Turn off the heat and take out the pot.

The golden fruit pieces are wrapped in sugar juice, crystal and bright, and the sugar silk is flying and flying, and the shape is attractive.

Luo He opened the lid of the sesame seed oven again, and the white smoke and sweet smell drifted into the clouds, and even the staff outside the venue couldn't help casting their gazes.

"smell good."

"I'm so hungry..."

"After the sacrifice stove is over, can we eat these biscuits?"

Xia Sunian cast his eyes away, only to see Luo He and Xiao Jiu each carrying a plate of tribute, walking towards the altar.

The fragrance wafted away, causing him to secretly swallow his saliva, and thought to himself, it is undoubtedly a wise choice for Luo He to host the ceremony of delivering the stove!

The stove soup cooked by Master Miaoxi and the cakes made by Steward Cheng came out of the pot one after another. The two put the tribute on the altar and placed it on both sides of Luohe's tribute.

Xia Sunian glanced at the sky and thought, next, as long as you finish reading the second part of the sacrificial oration, you will be done.

The sun was sinking to the west, and the golden afterglow shone on the nine-section wolf beside Luo He, and its tail ring seemed to be on fire.

The warm wind blows.

Xiao Jiu stuck out her tongue.

Suddenly, as if aware of something, he tugged at Luo He's trouser legs.

Luo He didn't respond, but looked at the altar and said nervously:

"Xiao Jiu, what are you doing there, hurry down!"

Xiao Jiu was slightly taken aback: "Huh?"

I'm right here?

Luo He turned his head to look at Xiao Jiu, and was also taken aback.

Xiaojiu here?

Who is that on the altar?

On the altar, a "nine-section wolf" appeared at some point, holding brown sugar pancakes in its left hand and glazed snake fruit in its right hand, enjoying the sauce with its mouth full.

Luo He froze in place.

Looking back and forth between Xiao Jiu and the figure on the altar.

Luo He was shocked and shocked:

"Stove, Mr. Stove?!"

...
