Master is a meow

Since Shen Zhehan was in the kitchen of the tavern, the business has been getting better day by day, even if there are two more tables in the lobby, it is still overcrowded every day.

Shen Zhehan is still very confident in his craftsmanship, if not for the lack of ingredients and the small town population, he believes that the business in the store will definitely be even more prosperous.

It’s okay to make peanuts and soybeans every day, it’s great to make more variations.But after eating these meals for half a month, Shen Zhehan really couldn't stand it anymore. After trying to persuade the stingy boss to pay for other ingredients to no avail, he decided to find a way by himself.

Even though the appetizers in the tavern were good, no one would come to drink in the early morning, so the shop only opened when the sun was shining.

So, after talking to Boss Xi in advance, Shen Zhehan carried a bamboo basket on his back early this morning and prepared to go to the mountains outside the town to find some ingredients.

It was just dawn at this time, but there were already several early morning stalls on the street.

"It's early in the morning, where is Xiao Shen going?"

Meichun Town is not big, and if something happens, everyone will know about it within a few days. Shen Zhehan has been here for half a month, and now everyone in the town basically knows that the boss is lucky and picked up a good crafter. The boy is helping in the shop.

Naturally, he couldn't wear the clothes he had when he came here. What Shen Zhehan was wearing now was just a gray linen clothes that the boss got from no one knows where.

However, although he was dressed gray, he couldn't help but look good, with exquisite facial features, fair skin, polite and smiling, completely different from his peers in the town.

It has to be said that no matter where he is, there is some advantage in being good looking, at least no one who has met him in the town dislikes him.

"Morning Uncle Liu!" Shen Zhehan said with a smile after hearing the prestige.

At first, he was a little worried about whether a small town like this would be xenophobic, but later he realized that he was thinking too much, and the people here were pretty easy to get along with.

"Morning!" Uncle Liu's stall was for porridge and steamed buns. Seeing him at this moment, he replied with a smile and stuffed two steamed buns into his arms, "Hold and eat."

When he came out two days ago, Aunt Liu insisted on a steamed bun when he saw him for the first time. Shen Zhehan, who couldn't push it, mentioned a few words that he could make some tricks on the porridge, which would be more attractive than selling plain porridge alone.

Aunt Liu heard that he was a good cook, so she asked him for advice, and Shen Zhehan directly told him how to make porridge.

Now their business is better than before, not at 01:30, so Shen Zhehan calmly accepted the steamed buns he stuffed, "Thank you, Uncle Liu."

"Hey, why are you being polite? If I really want to say uncle, I have to thank you!" Boss Xi only eats two meals a day, one meal at noon and one meal at night. Uncle Liu, who hadn't eaten, said again: "Why don't you sit down and bring you a bowl of porridge?"

"No need." Shen Zhehan waved his hand, pointed to the front and said, "I want to go around the mountain."

Uncle Liu didn't ask him why, but only reminded him to be careful.

While biting the steamed buns, he left the town, and after eating the two steamed buns, Shen Zhehan also arrived at the foot of the mountain.

There is a continuous mountain range outside the town, but it has no name. After going up the mountain, Shen Zhehan glanced left and right.

It was better at the bottom of the mountain, and the vegetation grew more vigorous as one went up. As Shen Zhehan walked slowly up, he dug out the wild vegetables he saw and put them into bamboo baskets.

Almost every household in the town has a vegetable garden in the backyard and fruit trees in the front yard. In recent years, the weather has been good and the weather has been good. In addition, the mountains are somewhat dangerous, so there is nothing but woodcutters, herbs and hunters. People come to the mountains.

Because of this, the bamboo basket on Shen Zhehan's back was already full before he reached the mountainside.

With a basket full of ingredients on his back, Shen Zhehan smiled contentedly.

Finally, I no longer have to eat peanuts and soybeans anymore!

Looking at the sky, Shen Zhehan knew that there was still plenty of time, so Shen Zhehan's hands felt itchy.

The ingredients here are abundant, and local materials can make a lot of delicious food.

He didn't have the energy to catch wild game, but thinking of the stream he saw just now, Shen Zhehan walked over with his lips raised.

The water in the stream is crystal clear, and there are indeed many palm-sized fish swimming happily in it.

Putting the bamboo basket on the ground, Shen Zhehan took off his shoes, picked up a dagger and walked into the water.

He found this dagger in the corner of the kitchen. After finally removing the rust on the surface, he sharpened it with a whetstone before it can be used.

After entering the water, he stood quietly for a while and waited for the water surface to return to calm, then Shen Zhehan unexpectedly stabbed the dagger down again and again.

After losing six or seven fish on the shore and preparing to take them back, Shen Zhehan set his sights on a rare big fish.

This fish was twice the size of the other fish, and it took Shen Zhehan a little effort to stab it and throw it back to the shore.

Shen Zhehan still has basic common sense. He didn't dare to make too much bloody smell even if he was in the mountains. He found a big leaf to wrap the other fish and put them into the bamboo basket, then dug a hole in the ground and moved neatly. Get rid of that big fish.

A pile of dead branches was piled up on the ground not far from the stream, and a fire was made with the torch that he brought out. Then he picked a fresh branch with a suitable thickness, folded it, put it in the water, washed it and soaked it for a while, then Shen Zhehan took the fish. Skewered with twigs and grilled over the fire.

Because he had thought about the current situation before he came out, Shen Zhehan prepared the seasoning in advance and brought it here, and the fish with his special seasoning was grilled for a while, and then the tempting aroma came out.

The food here is all natural, and it tastes particularly good when cooked. Shen Zhehan, who hasn't eaten fish like this for a long time, couldn't help swallowing when he smelled the aroma.

He saw bamboo there just now, if it wasn't for the fear of wasting time, he actually wanted to make bamboo-flavored grilled fish.

Turning over the fish with a concentrated expression, when it was finished roasting, Shen Zhehan put the fish on the washed leaves spread on the stones, turned around and went to the stream to wash his hands and face.

There's no way, it's summer at this time, although it's not that hot in the mountains, I still can't bear to sit by the fire for so long.

However, seeing the reflection in the water, Shen Zhehan couldn't help touching his face. He finally turned 20 years old, but the clothes shrunk down to a minor again. Looking at it like this, he is only fifteen or sixteen years old, right?

There are not so many rules about recruiting people in ancient times, and there is nothing wrong with living younger and younger.

Thinking about it, Shen Zhehan shook off the water on his hand, ready to enjoy his delicious grilled fish.

However, as soon as he returned to the fire, before he had time to take the fish, a person suddenly appeared in front of him, and Shen Zhehan raised his head stiffly.

The person in front of him was dressed in white, with a handsome face and a bit of indifference, a pair of eyes as black as the sky seemed to be drawn into the sky full of stars, his ink-like hair was tied up with a white jade hair crown, he stood there quietly, with a graceful figure like a fairy .

but!The point is!This "immortal" appeared out of nowhere!

Just like the one riding a white horse may be Tang Seng, the one who looks like a fairy is also likely to be A Piao...

The mountain that was still considered shady just now, now Shen Zhehan only felt gloomy. There was nothing he could do about it. He had heard a lot of ghost stories when he was a child. Even though he didn't believe there was such a thing in his heart, he was still a little scared.

"Will you..."

That slightly cool voice was actually pretty nice, but when those three words fell into Shen Zhehan's ears, he instantly made up a [-]-word ghost story.

"I don't want to!" Shaking unconsciously, he yelled, grabbed the bamboo basket at hand, turned and ran away.

As for why you still remember the bamboo basket at this time?It can only be said to be a strange occupational disease of being a cook.

Seeing him running so far away in an instant, the man in white still had a faint look on his face, only a trace of doubt flashed in his eyes, as if he didn't understand why he ran away suddenly without waiting for him to finish speaking.

Immediately, he looked down at the steaming fish that had been forgotten, and he did not chase after the person who had already run down the mountain.

Shen Zhehan didn't stop until he ran down the mountain to the outside of the town, patted his chest and walked slowly into the town.

As for why not look back?The experience of listening to so many ghost stories told him that it is best not to turn back casually after encountering weird events!

At first, he was afraid that he would come back late and affect the business, but when he saw him rushing back sweating profusely, the stingy boss who had just opened the store was satisfied, but said: "Actually, there is no need to hurry back! "

Shen Zhehan waved his hand, poured a bowl of water from the store and drank it before he recovered.

When I was on the mountain just now, I was really scared, but part of the reason was that I was unfamiliar with the environment there and had the mentality of scaring myself. Sitting in the shop now, Shen Zhehan calmed down a little, and couldn't help saying: "Boss, let's take care of yourself." Is there a young man in white?"

"No." Boss Xi shook his head without thinking, and then said: "White is so dirty, who can wear that."

If it's not from the town, it may be someone passing by, or it may be that you didn't pay attention to it when it appeared suddenly.

In short, even though he was frightened, Shen Zhehan still didn't want to believe that there really was such a thing in the world, so he began to find reasons for that "person".

"Hey! Where are there so many fish?" Boss Xi noticed the bamboo basket he had placed on the ground, glanced casually and said pleasantly.

"I went to catch it in the mountains." Shen Zhehan said.

"Run up the mountain to catch fish? You are really willing to make trouble." Boss Xi said with a smile on his face.

This is what Shen Zhehan got back. Boss Xi is not going to be greedy, but he is very happy because he thinks that he will be able to eat it after it is ready.

At noon, because there were too many guests, he ate casually, and in the evening, as an excuse to shock himself, Shen Zhehan made several dishes with those few fish.

After having a meal of his braised fish, squirrel fish and wild vegetable fish soup in the evening, plus a plate of garlic and green vegetables, the stingy boss who was burping his stomach expressed his support for him to go to the mountains every day, even if he came back late. ,relation!

Shen Zhehan said that for the time being, at least these two days are not going to go up the mountain.
