The crowd applauded enthusiastically again, and then Zhong Rui's voice automatically appeared in their minds.
"The theme this time is - [Humans and Immortals]."
When Xiangling and Yanxiao heard the theme this time, they fell into deep thought. Soon Yanxiao thought of what to cook.
When it comes to people and gods, that delicious food will definitely come to mind! Fairy jumps over the wall!
Xiang Ling's expression was still hesitant. Although she also subconsciously thought of the fairy jumping over the wall, Zhong Rui said that this Kitchen King Competition is related to Guo Ba's life experience, so the theme he gave is probably also a kind of response. Her hint.
Keqing also found her through Zhong Rui's reminder, so the spicy pork buns recorded in her grandfather's notes are probably related to the mysterious Kitchen God!
Chapter 387 Kitchen God’s Recipe
"Time's up! Players please stop what you're doing and let's move on to the review session!"
Xiang Ling and Yan Xiao looked at the dishes that had just been prepared and were pulled by the magic power to fly to the judging table, feeling nervous again.
After all, this championship is important to them all!
What's more, the gold content of this championship is about to explode!
Seven Stars, visitors from other worlds, immortals, Emperor Tianrui, no matter who they are recognized by, it is something worthy of joy for them!
"Then please two contestants come forward and introduce their dishes!"
"Yanxiao, you come first."
Xiang Ling looked at Yan Xiao next to her and decided to give him the opportunity to take the lead. After all, Liyue Port was to some extent her home court, so she would naturally give Yan Xiao some advantages in the away game.
"Well, you're welcome then. Sirs, my main dish is Immortal Jumping Over the Wall, which is a delicacy in Liyue folklore that can arouse the appetite of immortals. The side dish is Mora Pork, which is for us Liyue and the Emperor, The symbol in Teyvat is mola, and as for the almond tofu as a snack...it was a certain immortal's preference, so I couldn't think of anything else, so I brought it up."
When Yan Xiao talked about the last snack, he was a little embarrassed. To be honest, with the theme given by the emperor, he immediately thought of the fairy jumping over the wall, and he also thought about the rest of the side dishes and snacks for a long time.
And the reason for bringing out the almond tofu as a snack was very reluctant. After all, he couldn't really tell the name of the immortal...
"The Great Sage Conquering Demons really likes almond tofu. Are you the cook at Wangshu Inn? This almond tofu is of excellent quality. Although I haven't tasted it yet, I can tell it's really good. You're interested."
Liu Yun Jie Feng Zhenjun looked at the plate of almond tofu and immediately realized which immortal Yan Xiao was talking about.
After all, the only immortal who is good at this is Mandrill.
"Thank you, Immortal! Mom, I was praised by the Immortal for my cooking..."
After being praised by the immortal, Yan Xiao suddenly showed an excited expression, but he smiled and started to cry.
For the people of Liyue, being recognized by the immortals and gods in this life is already worth it!
The people in Liyue present could understand Yan Xiao's excitement, and they all applauded him in unison.
"Huh? Did the Great Sage of Conquering Demons eat your food and never tell you it tastes good?"
Liuyun Jiefeng Zhenjun's question immediately put the scene into a cold mood, and even Yan Xiao, who was moved, was stunned for a moment.
"..."
Mandrill stood in silence on the eaves of Yujing Terrace. Mi Nu next to him covered his mouth and chuckled softly while patting Mandrill on the shoulder.
"Jin Peng, you have been freeloading for so long, and haven't you ever received a word of thanks from the cook?"
"I..."
Mandrill also realized that his behavior was a bit inappropriate, and thought about going down and saying thank you to Yan Xiao, your food is delicious.
"Liu Yun Jie Feng Zhenjun, have you forgotten that the Great Sage Conquering Demons was entangled in the karma of demons and could not contact mortals? Moreover, the Great Sage Conquering Demons has eaten his almond tofu for so many years. If you don't like it, how could you do it? Eaten for so many years?”
At the critical moment, it was Zhong Rui who helped smooth things over for Mandrill. At the same time, he gained a deep understanding of Liuyun Jiefeng Zhenjun's "very good at chatting" skills.
Did he invite the wrong judge for the King of Kitchen Competition this time?
"I forgot. Speaking of which, if you hadn't helped the Great Sage to purify his karma, I'm afraid he would still be unable to contact mortals in the future, huh? But since he has been purified now..."
"Ahem, then let's ask contestant Xiangling to introduce his cooking!"
After receiving hints from Gan Yu in the audience and Zhong Rui on the stage, Yan Fei immediately interrupted Liuyun Jiefeng Zhenjun who was still about to say something. No wonder Grandma Ping and her father always told her that Liuyun Jiefeng Zhenjun was Be careful when you speak.
At first she thought it was because they were afraid that they would be disrespectful to their elders and lose their etiquette, but now it seems like it's something else.
"Well, regarding the introduction of my dishes, can I ask someone to introduce the main dishes to me? I will do the side dishes and snacks myself!"
Just as Xiang Ling spoke something unexpected by everyone, Master Mao, who was watching from the audience, heard his daughter's speech and was so anxious that he rushed to the stage to help her introduce the main course.
Let’s talk about why Xiangling’s main course is spicy pork steamed buns, a folk side dish.
In comparison, Yanxiao's Xian Tiaoqiang is a level higher than Spicy Pork Wowotou in terms of fame and production technology!
Only Ke Qing looked at Xiang Ling's back with complicated eyes. If Xiang Ling didn't look confident now, Ke Qing would have wanted to go on stage to explain to Xiang Ling.
"Eh? But the process..."
Yan Fei looked at Zhong Rui with some embarrassment.
"Okay, then let me introduce the side dishes and snacks first."
Seeing Zhong Rui speak, Xiang Ling also felt relieved.
"This side dish, Mapo Tofu, is a recipe of Emperor Zhong Tianrui. It is said that he came up with it because he wanted to eat hot tofu. It is now our signature dish of Wanmintang, and this recipe is also open to the public for free. .”
Hearing Xiang Ling's explanation, many Liyue people in the audience were surprised. They didn't expect that Mapo Tofu, which became a hit when it appeared, was actually the recipe thought up by the Emperor!
Moreover, Xiangling was able to get the recipe from Lord Dijun. This background is too strong!
"As for the snacks being mooncakes, it is said that Zhuyue Festival was originally a day for rituals of the immortal family. Later, people imitated the immortals, and many festivals evolved in the name of Zhuyue. Later, because Emperor Yanwang wanted to commemorate a friend, he To unify these festivals with different names, to look at the sky and the earth, to swear by the moon, to recall the past and the present, and to reunite and rejoice, these are all things Keqing and I investigated based on the notes left by her grandfather. .”
Xiangling looked at Zhong Rui and told her the results of her investigation with Keqing, just like a student reporting a problem to the teacher, and then came to the last and most critical main course.
"Your Excellency, there is also a incomplete recipe recorded in the notes of Grandfather Keqing. It is said that he copied it down at a ruins in Guiliyuan. After I restored it, I found that this dish was spread throughout every household in Liyue. Spicy pork steamed buns, can you explain it to me?"
"Well, you have investigated in detail. The staple food, Spicy Pork Wowotou, is a recipe left by the Kitchen God."
Hearing Zhong Rui's words, both Xiang Ling and Ke Qing showed expressions that were indeed true. Those in the audience showed surprised expressions when they heard the breaking news, quickly sparking a discussion.
"Eh? Kitchen God? Rock King Emperor?"
"No, no, no, it is said that before Emperor Yanwang, there was a mysterious Kitchen God."
"But the Kitchen God recorded in ancient books is Emperor Yanwang?"
"They say it was in the past! Besides, with so many years of history in Liyue, ancient books that are a thousand years old are considered ancient books, and ancient books from three hundred years ago are also ancient books!"
Chapter 388 Is the Kitchen God a rice cooker?
"Liyue's original Kitchen God was not the well-known Rock King Emperor, but another demon god, the Demon God of Stoves, Marcusius."
Zhongli opened his mouth to help Zhongrui continue to add what he had not finished, and at the same time he did not want Emperor Yan to swallow up the achievements of his old friend.
"Maxius, born from the sparks of the collision of stones, is in charge of the fire and people's livelihood. Thousands of years ago, the people of Liyue expanded the city and immigrated to Guiliyuan. The Kitchen God cared about people's livelihood and transformed into thousands of clones to sneak into every home. Household, help the people of Liyue make fires and cook food."
When the people in the audience heard the Immortal Palace principal explain, they all became quiet and listened to Zhongli's explanation.
"Until a big flood destroyed Guiliji, people were forced to move south and back to Liyue Port. Immortals escorted them for several days, but there were strong winds and rains on the way, and many people were infected with wind and cold."
Zhong Rui also spoke, and he and Zhong Li complemented each other.
"During this period, Kitchen God made an ancient delicacy that was easy to carry. It was made of naan and spicy meat sauce that can dispel dampness and repel cold. This delicacy is the spicy meat steamed bun served by Xiangling player."
After hearing the origin of Spicy Pork Wo Wotou, Xiang Ling showed an expression of sudden realization. No wonder this recipe spread all over the alleys of Liyue. It turns out that this ordinary delicacy that everyone seems to know how to cook is the inheritance left by the Kitchen God. .
"Then, Your Majesty the Emperor, what happened to the Kitchen God?"
Remembering that Zhong Rui mentioned before that the King of Kitchen Competition was related to Guo Ba’s life experience, Xiang Ling continued to ask.
"In the following hundreds of years, this land was often plagued by natural disasters and diseases. The Kitchen God integrated almost all of his power into this land to quell disasters. This power still protects Liyue to this day."
"But because it dedicated all its power to this land, it had very little power left for itself. The Kitchen God's intelligence was greatly reduced, and in the end he was only less than a person tall. After bidding farewell to all his old friends, he retired to the mountains and forests. According to the news, Zhuyue’s name is also the name of King Yan in memory of this respectable friend.”
The Liyue people present couldn't help but feel their noses sore after hearing the deeds of the Kitchen God. Many of them were even sensitive and started to sob.
Liyue's 3,700-year history of walking with God has never been a lie.
The reason why the people of Liyue respect and love every immortal god is not because of how powerful and magical they are, but because these immortal gods have sacrificed everything to protect them.
This has always been the case from the past to the present.
So when they heard the last words of the Kitchen God, they all felt sorry and sad for it.
These Liyue people, who have been blessed by the Kitchen God, have now forgotten such an important thing...
"The Kitchen God is a god who likes people to smile and taste delicious food. If he sees your sad look, he will probably become sad too, so on this day to commemorate him, I hope you can taste it with a smile. These delicious treats.”
Zhong Rui turned his palm over, and the food cooked by the contestants was reduced and refined, and appeared in front of everyone present. He also thoughtfully prepared bowls and chopsticks for them, and knives, forks and spoons for foreign visitors.
Even Xiang Ling and Yan Xiao had food appearing in front of them, and they picked up their chopsticks in a tacit understanding and began to taste each other's dishes.
Ten minutes later, after tasting these dishes, the smiles reappeared on their faces. Next came the voting session of the Kitchen King Competition.
Originally, only the lucky spectators who were selected by lottery could taste the contestants' dishes, but due to Zhong Rui's intervention, everyone present was given the right to vote.
They lined up to vote for Xiang Ling and Yan Xiao. Those who liked delicate and seafood voted for Yan Xiao, and those who liked spicy and exciting voted for Xiang Ling.
But soon the votes of both contestants went from being almost even to one side becoming tilted towards one side. Xiangling's final votes were one-third higher than Yanxiao's.
"Ahem, then I declare that the winner of this Kitchen King Competition is——"
"etc!"
Xiang Ling interrupted Yan Fei's speech, and seeing another unexpected situation, Yan Fei decided to wait until later to find the General Affairs Department to ask them to increase their wages.
"Yan Xiao's food is delicious. He shouldn't only have these votes. Besides, everyone only gave me so many votes for my spicy pork wowotou after listening to the Kitchen God's story, so I put..."
"Wait!"
Just when Xiangling was about to give up the championship, Yan Xiao interrupted her in time.
"Xiang Ling, when it comes to the taste of food, you are better than me, and your dishes are very unique. Even the fillings of the moon cakes were improved by you yourself. I can taste that there is something in it that I can't taste. Sweetness, in contrast, I just copied the dishes and used the dishes left by my predecessors, so I lost this kitchen king competition."
Yan Xiao looked at Xiang Ling with a smile on his face. Even if he put aside the story of the Kitchen God and tasted Xiang Ling's cooking, Yan Xiao still thought that she was superior to him as a chef.
Because there is something in Xiangling’s cuisine that he does not have, and that is innovation in cuisine!
She had her own improvements to the three dishes Xiang Ling made. The recipes for these three dishes were no secret. Yan Xiao could also copy them, but he thought he couldn't make them as delicious as Xiang Ling.
Therefore, he was convinced to lose.
"But Yan Xiao, you did an excellent job in Xianjiaoqiang. Even there are many chefs in Liyue Port who cannot achieve this level of completion, and..."
"Then let's compete again next year. Next year I will take part in the King of Kitchen Competition again with my homemade dishes!"
"...Yeah! I will also fight with all my strength when the time comes!"
Yan Fei announced happily after seeing that the two contestants finally reached an agreement and confirmed that there were no accidents.
"Then I declare that the winner of this Kitchen King Competition is--Xiang Ling!!!"
Thunderous applause and cheers rang out from the audience, and many people shouted Yan Xiao's name, which made the seven-foot tall man wipe his tears with some emotion.
"Huh? Look at the stone on the altar table!"
"Eh? It's cracked!"
Someone noticed the changes in the stone on the altar table, and Zhong Rui sent his divine power over to help break the seal of the statue inside.
"What's inside the stone is...Cooker?"
Xiangling saw the stone statue of Guo Ba inside, but compared to Guo Ba's usual cute expression, the expression of this stone statue was more majestic.
"Every month is a festival to commemorate the Kitchen God. This statue is also the statue of the Kitchen God Marcusius. Even if it can no longer remember this, it can't help but feel happy when it sees the smiles of people tasting delicious food."
"?~"
People looked at Guo Ba who was smiling happily next to Xiang Ling. There were many complicated emotions in his eyes, but in the end they did not forget what Zhong Rui said before. They responded to this man with a satisfied smile after tasting delicious food on his face. The Kitchen God who has lost his intelligence.
"And as the current emperor of Liyue, I naturally won't look at it..."
Just when Zhong Rui was about to say something, a strong earthquake was felt beneath his feet, causing Zhong Rui to subconsciously look outside Liyue Harbor, in the direction of Jueyunjian.
He could feel a very powerful rock element force rioting there, and at the same time, Liyue's earth veins began to become chaotic.
Could this phenomenon be the Dragon King Ruotuo?
