Xiangling is a reformist chef who has a broad acceptance of food and a strong spirit of exploration. She is willing to try cooking methods with various ingredients.

It doesn’t matter whether it tastes good or not, what matters is technology and hard work.

Xiangling firmly believes that there are no waste ingredients, only waste chefs.

For example, Xiangling is keen on making slime gel into delicious food.

What about slime mushrooms, Jueyun pepper slime popsicles, and braised slime meat...

Anyway, people who don’t have a strong taste for food wouldn’t dare to eat it, and only people like Jing Fantian who like strong tastes can act as a food taster for her.

To sum up, Xiangling likes some strange cooking ingredients, the more exotic the better.

"Xiangling, look at what this is?"

Jing Fantian took out a glass bottle with a diameter of a palm, which was filled with many insects with golden patterns. These were scarab beetles from the Sumeru Desert.

Shen He's attention was also attracted. He approached the glass bottle in Jing Fantian's hand and looked at the scarab in the bottle with some curiosity.

Xiangling took a look and then said disdainfully, "Isn't this just a dung beetle? You actually asked me to cook with dung beetles? Are you deliberately trying to disparage me?"

Xiangling likes exotic ingredients, but that doesn’t mean she likes unappetizing ingredients.

Jing Fantian quickly explained, "Xiangling, this isn't a dung beetle. It's a scarab, a scarab native to the Xumi Desert."

"Scarab?"

Xiangling was a little confused: "Isn't it related to dung beetles?"

Jing Fantian shook his head: "Of course it doesn't matter. Listen to the name of this scarab beetle. Is it related to the dirty dung beetle?"

"Legend has it that during the reign of the King of Yellow Sand, priests skilled in sorcery would seal the souls of the defeated within scarabs, entrusting them with the name of Akhmar, eternally guarding the saint's temples and palaces."

With a long history, Xiangling became more curious about the scarab.

She was a little confused again: "Then where did you get these scarabs?"

Jing Fantian explained, "It was in Aru Village in the Xumi Desert. I felt sorry for the villagers and gave them a lot of supplies to sustain their lives. The village elders were grateful to me and gave me this sacred object that symbolizes the Sun God."

Xiangling finally calmed down and took the bottle containing the scarab. "Can it really be used as food?"

Jing Fantian pointed at her and said, "Xiangling, you're the chef, so you have the right to speak on this matter."

"So what if it's a dung beetle? Who says you can't cook dung beetles? Many people even like pig intestines! The more you eat, the more energetic you become, and the more you eat, the more delicious it becomes."

After hearing what Jing Fantian said, Xiangling realized that she was a bit conservative as a reformist chef.

Yes, who said dung beetles can’t be eaten with rice?

Many diners like pig intestines, and they like the delicious taste of them marinated in baba.

Perhaps, with special processing, dung beetles can become a special delicacy like pig intestines.

"Okay, I'll accept this gift and I won't bother with what happened to you before."

"Whatever you want to eat, I'll make it for you."

Jing Fantian smiled and said, "This time we are here to order food to take away. There are guests at the Qun Yu Pavilion."

"That's it!"

Xiangling nodded and then asked, "So what would this guest like to eat?"

Jing Fantian thought for a moment and said, "Northern Smoked Chicken, give her some more smoked meat dishes according to this taste."

Xiangling nodded: "Just wait, I'll make it for you."

After Xiangling went to the kitchen, Jing Fantian took Shen He by the hand and found a place to sit.

Shen He took the opportunity to take out the wild vegetable stewed hot noodles to taste.

She asked curiously, "Are scarabs and dung beetles really unrelated?"

"..."

Jing Fantian was surprised that Shen He was not disgusted by the dung beetle while eating delicious food.

Then I thought about it and realized that Shen He was a big-hearted person and I was no longer confused.

Jing Fantian said, "In the culture of the desert people, the dung beetle's action of pushing the dung ball symbolizes the sun rising in the east and setting in the west, so they regard the dung beetle as the incarnation of the sun god and name it the scarab."

Shen He rolled his eyes at Jing Fantian. After all, he was still a dung beetle. Jing Fantian was really bad. He actually lied to Xiangling that the scarab was a sacred insect.

What if Xiangling made it and someone ate it?

"Why should I care? I'm not going to eat it anyway."

Jing Fantian was a little bored while waiting for Xiangling to cook in the store, so he found a pair of chopsticks and ate with Shen He.

Unexpectedly, Shen He was very protective of his food and refused to give any to Jing Fantian, so Jing Fantian could only play with Guoba.

"Come on, Uncle Guoba, I'll order some golden shrimp balls and put the bill on Xiangling."

Master Mao was speechless when he passed by and heard this. The account was put on Xiangling's shoulders, but the favor was yours.

Really...

Not long after, Xiangling prepared all the dishes that Jing Fantian requested, packed them up and handed them to Jing Fantian.

"In addition to Northland smoked chicken, I also made wild mushroom chicken kebabs, butter chicken, and schnitzel sandwiches..."

Jing Fantian nodded frequently and poured out handfuls of Mora from the Rock Dragon Cave.

Xiangling was extremely shocked when she saw it: "We don't need so many."

Jing Fantian said generously, "I'm rich now. I have so much money in my hands every day and I can't cash it out. Helping the poor is a trivial matter for me."

Xiangling's family runs a Wanmin Hall, so they are not poor.

But considering so many Moras, Xiangling considers herself poor.

She returned the kindness and said, "Don't worry, after I study the scarab you gave me, I will definitely make it into something delicious and send it to you."

Jing Fantian quickly stopped him, "No, you don't have to give it to me. Give it to Chongyun! Yes! Give it to him. Tell him that the scarab has ice properties and can regulate his Chongyun body."

Jing Fantian still wanted Xiangling to give it to Zhongli, but he always picked the softest persimmon to squeeze, and Chongyun was the easiest persimmon to squeeze.

Unexpectedly, Shen He immediately became unhappy.

Chongyun is her eldest nephew.

"Don't give it to Chongyun, give it to Xingqiu."

Jing Fantian nodded: "Give it to Xingqiu, or Jiaming, too. It's a great tonic."

"..."

Xiangling was a little confused. Why did Jing Fantian look like he didn't want to eat?

"Xiangling, stop disturbing us. Let's go!"

"By the way, before leaving, I ordered a serving of golden shrimp balls for Guoba."

"Lulu~"

After Jing Fantian left with Shen He, Xiangling looked at Xiyi looking at her Guoba and smiled: "Guoba, you've worked hard today. I'll make you a golden shrimp ball dinner later."

"Lulu~"

Guoba suddenly jumped up with joy.

Qunyu Pavilion.

When Jing Fantian and Shen He arrived late, the seats on the balcony were full of people.

There are Falusan, Liuyun, Yae Shenzi, Ningguang, Keqing and Ganyu.

At this moment, Falushan, Liuyun, and Ningguang were discussing mechanical engineering intensely.

The fact that Ningguang was able to build a floating attic as large as the Qun Yu Pavilion proves that she has some attainments in mechanical engineering, but she is not as professional as Liuyun and Falushan.

Yae Shen Zi, Keqing and Ganyu were listening nearby but couldn't get a word in. They could only wait for Jing Fantian and Shen He to place their orders.

When Jing Fantian and Shen He appeared in Qun Yu Pavilion, the three of them were happy.
