Eternal Food Paradise.

Chapter 5 Bitter Gourd Stuffed with Douban Sauce
Xia Yan watched as Chen Zhiyuan slammed on the brakes, made another beautiful drift turn, and rushed to the bar counter, with both hands supporting the countertop, looking over with burning eyes.

"What is he doing?" Xia Yan's heart was filled with question marks.

I don't understand, but I would like to praise the young hero for his good work.

He couldn't help but think of himself playing RPG games in the past, manipulating various sand sculptures of characters, such a strong sense of sight.

Huh?
Soon, Xia Yan realized something was wrong.

The guy whose ID is 'Zhiyuanxing' is actually very interested in his homework. Xia Yan observed the longing in Chen Zhiyuan's eyes.

"System, he should have discovered something, right? I must be different from his template." Xia Yan felt that this was nonsense, and he wanted to laugh a little.

In fact, "fashion" can prove that Chen Zhiyuan is a typical novice apprentice commoner, Xia Yan sized himself up.

The chef's and store manager's clothes are so familiar, cross-collared, navy blue, and a belt around the waist, which made him feel ashamed that he was playing the uncle boss of the late-night cafeteria.

Could it be that in the eyes of players like 'Zhiyuanxing', I am just an NPC?

Xia Yan suddenly realized why Chen Zhiyuan was very cautious and waved to him to say hello just now.

"Your template is unique."

The system's indifferent answer, in Xia Yan's ears, had a subtle illusion of licking a dog.

"Except for you, all guests who visit and log in to this paradise game will use the player template."

Well, I stopped communicating with the system, and I heard a call in my ears:
"Boss, boss..."

Seeing the very cool young chef standing with folded arms, Chen Zhiyuan rolled his eyelids, and then withdrew his shaking hand: "I have no money."

Yes, penniless.

In the backpack column, the money is displayed as "0".

"and then?"

Hearing this, Chen Zhiyuan hesitated for a moment, rubbed his hands together, and asked boldly with a bit of delusions: "This...is a combination of bitter melon and some kind of stuffing?"

"Bitter melon stuffed with bean paste." Xia Yan found that Chen Zhiyuan was staring at the plate with enthusiasm, and he didn't seem to be keeping a respectful distance from the exotic dishes at all. He was a little speechless, and asked the system secretly: "Tasting this, will he get any benefits? "

Xia Yan tried to imagine if he put himself in the position of a player.

Ok……

There are real benefits, let alone dark cooking, and a series of things that violate the morals of the three good students are not impossible. It is impossible to overestimate the integrity of the players. This group is simply a typical representative of the chaotic camp.

"Di, items that can be tasted."

"Tasting has four major evaluations: qualified, good, excellent and perfect."

"The experience value obtained after completion fluctuates with the evaluation, the lowest is 500, and the highest is 2000. When the [Excellent] and [Perfect] evaluations are triggered, the player will receive additional item rewards."

Xia Yan flipped through his "Character Level LV1 (0/500)" panel.

"This shit! Experience or something, I suck it myself!"

"Can't taste an item you made yourself."

"..." Xia Yan was silent.

Seeing that the young chef was lost in thought again, Chen Zhiyuan couldn't help asking anxiously, "Can I have a taste of your cooking?"

Xia Yan looked at 'Zhiyuan Star' expressionlessly.

"You can eat."

"You don't have to pay..."

Chen Zhiyuan was pleasantly surprised. What kind of fairy chef is this? He feels that he has hit the jackpot. Although he has just created the character, he smells a hint of being ahead of others.

"But you have to eat clean, and, after eating, help me clean the house."

Xia Yan's mind also turned a corner. Since it is a visible "revenue", he firmly holds the production rights in his hands, isn't it equivalent to taking a leader's token, ordering the players to be a group of beneficial creatures? Don't take it easy.

It's not a loss at all for a meal to be cleaned by a part-time worker.

Ah, just eat clean?

What kind of fairy NPC is this, I love it, I love it, I will officially release the most popular NPC ranking in the future, I will definitely vote for you with kryptonite.

As for cleaning, in Chen Zhiyuan's mind, this is an errand job of the same nature as going to the roof to catch cats and trees to pick kites. It is a mandatory task and cannot be avoided, so he hastily agreed: "Don't worry, it smells delicious , although it looks very spicy, but I am a man who has challenged the Death Chili, so I promise to eat it clean—”

When he said this, Chen Zhiyuan didn't notice that the young chef at the bar was looking at him with a tragic look.

Strong man, let's go.

"This game, let's treat it as a virtual reality game. Is the player's sensory experience and the color and aroma of the dishes perfectly restored?"

Chen Zhiyuan really regarded Xia Yan as an NPC, and he didn't care about him when he talked to himself, he picked up a small piece of stuffed bitter gourd with his chopsticks, and put it into his mouth.

Ouch, what the hell!

"It's so bitter melon-"

The face that was originally written with anticipation, because of the unexpected impact, the facial features were tightly wrinkled into a ball.

Chen Zhiyuan's remorse.

Grass, why did they set up the death flag again!

"You have to understand that you are a non-chief. If you get lucky and trigger an adventure, it will not be your turn if human beings die!"

Chen Zhiyuan doesn't dislike eating bitter melon, on the contrary, he also likes the home-cooked dish 'Bitter Gourd Beef' very much, but eating boiled bitter melon is one thing, drinking jerky bitter melon juice is another.

With the piece of bitter melon in his mouth now, Chen Zhiyuan thought he was drinking a glass of "authentic" bitter melon juice.

bitter!Jerky!

After biting open, there is the strange smell of the filling.

It was like swallowing a mouthful of mustard, and the nasal cavity was choked by the irritating taste. I don't know if it was because of the spicy or other mysterious taste, Chen Zhiyuan's eyes shed tears of youthful appearance.

"It's unpalatable, it's so unpalatable!!"

Bad reviews can't help but spit out.

"What kind of strange smell is this?" Chen Zhiyuan's consciousness was blurred. "Let's not talk about diced meat and bean paste. This kind of soft and sticky taste is definitely steamed glutinous rice. The sticky glutinous rice balls in the mouth are not strong enough to make people feel sick..."

After barely eating a few pieces, seeing that there was still more than half of the plate left, Chen Zhiyuan's face was covered with cold sweat: "I... can I stop eating?"

Xia Yan stood there without answering, and the system prompt popped up on Chen Zhiyuan:

[The tasting is interrupted, this trigger mission is about to fail, and you will have the following losses...]

Chen Zhiyuan immediately fell silent, and continued to eat with his head buried.

"Well!"

Move on to the next piece.

As he ate and ate, he quickly got used to the pungent smell that rushed into his nostrils, and his tangled face gradually became expressionless.

There was a crisp crash of "clang".

It was the sound of chopsticks hitting an empty plate.

Finished?
I really eat clean?sky!God!

Why can I feast on a 'dark dish'?

Chen Zhiyuan came back to his senses in a daze, and it took only a few minutes. The difficult swallowing time that was expected to take a quarter of an hour or even half an hour was actually greatly shortened!
He smacked his lips.

The depression in my heart was replaced by a surprise of discovery.

Between the lips and teeth, there is a faint sweetness left by the stuffing.

"This sweet smell is so familiar."

Chen Zhiyuan pondered for a while, and suddenly there was a lightning strike in his head: "Yes, it must be 'natto'!"

[Score for this tasting: 30...]

[Note, the score is based on a [-]-point system, with a full score of [-]. 】

Is this a kind of ingredient that got the right answer and got 30 points in an instant?
Chen Zhiyuan was extremely excited, and answered the seasoning ingredients such as glutinous rice, minced meat, soy sauce, and shallots in one breath. As a result, the score only slowly rose to 40, which is still a long way from passing.

In my mind, I didn't realize that it was very unreasonable for 'natto' to appear in this paradise game with the background of "Zhonghua Yiyi".

Chen Zhiyuan scratched his head anxiously. After several attempts, he found that answering the ingredients item could no longer improve the tasting score. He gritted his teeth and turned to cooking techniques:

"There is a problem with the use of glutinous rice for filling, it should be soaked in advance."

Ding.

Seeing that the score had finally risen, Chen Zhiyuan burst into tears, and decided to catch this crazy one: "Glutinous rice can be marinated, add oil and salt."

Ding.

"Before kneading the mixed filling, the glutinous rice can be fried until it is half-ripe and translucent."

Ding.

The score officially broke through the 60 mark, and the word [qualified] was attached at the end, but then Chen Zhiyuan added a few comments about the usage of glutinous rice, but the score returned to dead silence, which made him sigh. This sheep was still picked up by himself Bare.

[This tasting is over, with a final score of 65 (passed). 】

[Get 500 experience points. 】

The character level is automatically raised from LV1 to LV2.

A talent tree panel unfolded in Chen Zhiyuan's field of vision.

'Tongue' (do you want to have the taste of God) -

'Nose' (the most skilled perfumer can discern any formula in the world)——

'eyes' (mortal eyes may be deceived by illusions, but nothing can deceive god pupils) -

'Ear' (Listen, the fire cooks the oil, you are the kitchen and the field) -

"You have 1 idle skill point, which can be used on the [Gourmet Appreciation] talent panel to strengthen the character's senses."
