dry man, dry soul

A tourist served a bowl of dark green soup.The dark green should be a pretty color, but there is a bit of fat on this bowl of soup. The strange ingredients and the edge of the dark green soup show a subtle purple, and there is a little yellow-green in the purple.

It was as if the most unsuitable colors for mixing that man could witness were all spliced ​​together.

Not even cuttlefish soup has such a punch.

Just across from this tourist, another tourist took a big steamed bun.This mantou is not like the traditional round and fluffy semi-circular mantou.The chef probably used the creativity of his life to shape the steamed bun into a twisted shape.However, the chef tried to add a bit of meat to the unsavory steamed buns, so a subtle reddish brown was seen at the corners of the twisted twist.

The appearance of these foods was enough to shock the two of them. When Shen Yu saw that a passing tourist could bake and mix various seafood and desserts, with a crab leg stuck on the cake, he finally took a step back. .

Oh, and quail eggs with cuttlefish noodles.Quail eggs are like the eyes of cuttlefish face, they are creepy and frightening for no reason.

No matter how good the taste is, it can't persuade him to taste these delicacies, not to mention that according to his vision, these foods are far from delicious.Salty and sweet mixed together, there is no way to eat it.

What's the situation with this weird color?

Can a normal person eat this kind of food?

Okay, they saw a tourist eat it and get a mouth full of purple.Burning chicken wings with the wrong Coke is not so terrible.

Shen Yu was in a heavy heart.

If God wants to punish him, please be sure not to punish him in this way of wasting food.

Of course, perhaps for people in this world, eating like this may not be considered a waste.

Because they literally ate it!They really enjoyed eating!These tourists are completely immersed in the atmosphere of the grotesque festival.A child with a bright smile held a fork and shook the preserved egg cut into the shape of yellow-green dragon eyes three times, just to show off that he had a new toy.

Chi Jiang stood next to Shen Yu, but his mood was completely opposite to Shen Yu's.How happy I was when I came here, how novel it is now.He didn't expect that there was a place in this world that even held a dinner with the theme of eerie festival fanfare.

Seafood itself has a refreshing fishy smell. This kind of fishy smell needs to taste the natural taste, and it needs to be added with wine, minced garlic, chili and other things to enhance freshness and taste.Instead of... changing the original taste with the exact opposite taste!

In fact, these delicacies may have cost the chef more effort.

He was eager to try it, and looked inside the door: "It's amazing. How does this taste?"

Shen Yu grabbed Chi Jiang who wanted to go in: "I didn't expect them to have such things as Weird Festival. Don't go in and eat it. Just in case you get sick."

Chi Jiang tried to get rid of Shen Yu's hand, "...this is for the festival. You can't discriminate against local delicacies."

[Strength confrontation: 31/13, judgment failed. 】

Chi Jiang's strength was no match for Shen Yu's, so he could only persuade him: "Have you never eaten beef hot pot? It's also a green soup. The taste is still bitter. It needs to take out the half-digested beef from the cow's stomach. Grass juice plus ox gall..."

Shen Yu: "...haven't eaten!"

He insisted on taking General Chi away, and he did not hesitate to use his fighting and restraint skills to drag him away by turning his center of gravity towards himself: "Have you ever thought that this kind of hot pot has not become popular, and there are its own reasons." Grab grass to eat!

Shen Yu recalled all the rumors he had heard: "I heard that their food is heavy in salt, sugar, and oil, and it tastes heavy in taste. Our stomachs may not adapt to it."

The child who showed off the preserved egg eyeballs just ate the preserved egg eyeballs happily, and seemed to be even happier because of the delicious food.When Chi Jiang saw it, he was overwhelmed with envy.He continued to pull Shen Yu's arm that was tied to him: "I haven't heard of it. I'll know it after I taste it. Let go first."

Shen Yu: "...No. I won't eat it, so don't eat it."

The two fought and dragged at the door, and it could almost be said that they "fighted hard". After three or two movements, Shen Yu used his arm dragging technique to completely trap the person and pull him away.

The tourists who came to eat next to them couldn't help but stay away from the two explorers, muttering in their hearts: it really is an explorer, it's weird.

A middle-aged man who was about to go in saw the gesture of the two of them, but subconsciously stopped them: "You two, don't you go in for dinner? Today's dinner is the most grandly prepared in this period of time. Tomorrow, the Jenny will be It’s a way to celebrate, setting sail again.”

Chi Jiang wanted to try it, and looked at the middle-aged man expectantly. He was being held and dragged away, so he could only stretch out his helpless hand to the middle-aged man: "I want to go in and eat."

Shen Yu was still firm: "No, he doesn't want to. We won't go in and eat."

The middle-aged man who stopped the two had a straight face, slightly fat, and was extremely well dressed. The watch on his wrist was inlaid with many rhinestones, and the suit and tie he was wearing were completely custom-made. It could be seen that he was a successful person.There are many wrinkles around his eyes, his hair is brown and yellow, but his complexion is extremely healthy, so he doesn't look too old.

The face of the middle-aged man is more solemn than that of the textbook, and the suit is also rigid, not even a single button is wrong.The ridiculous protests of the two young men in front of him did not make him laugh.He said politely: "Is it because you can't get used to weird food? Of course we also have meals that look normal."

These words mean that middle-aged people are not ordinary people.

He should be related to the departure of the Jenny, maybe the captain of the Jenny, or the principal investor of the Jenny.

In any case, the ship must have something to do with the middle-aged man.

Seeing this, the staff who greeted the guests with a smile hurriedly stepped forward: "I'm really sorry. I didn't consider that the two of you are not used to our weird food. We also prepare daily meals."

The middle-aged man made a slow gesture to the staff, and continued to talk to Chi Jiang and Shen Yu: "Why don't you two go to the side with me to eat normal food? If you are not used to eating like that, you can order another meal .”

General Chi was about to speak to say that he could go to the countryside and do as the Romans do.

With sharp eyes and quick hands, Shen Yu covered General Chi's mouth on the spot, and after judging the identity of the middle-aged man, he said decisively, "It's troublesome."

General Chi: "..." Cut off friendship for 3 minutes!He wants to break up with Shen Yu for 3 minutes!

Although middle-aged people look harsh, they are not difficult to communicate with.He stood there facing the two young men: "I didn't expect that the restart of the Jenny would attract explorers."

After he finished speaking, he suddenly remembered that he forgot to introduce himself, so he told his name solemnly first: "Kang Huali. My name is Kang Huali. I am the current owner of the Jenny."

Seeing that General Chi could be taken away, Shen Yu loosened his hands: "Shen Yu."

Chi Jiang struggled to get out of Shen Yu's hands: "Chi Jiang."

Kang Huali took a step forward, leading people to the small restaurant next to him, his tone still calm: "I don't know why you are here on the Jenny this time, where are you planning to travel, or... the purpose is on the Jenny?"

He quickly brought the two of them to a small restaurant, and ordered some meals with the staff of the small restaurant: "Make some according to the explorer's taste. Also send a copy to the other two explorers in the hotel. "

Chi Jiang and Shen Yu fought for a while just now, and now they both calmed down and sat opposite Kang Huali.

The two of them were not afraid of Kang Huali's seriousness.Shen Yu and Kang Huali said briefly: "I have received a commission this time. The client hopes that I will secretly protect his life. Of course, my purpose is not the Jenny. I don't know anything about the rest."

Dice appeared in the void.

[Speaking skills: 46/50, the judgment is successful. 】

Kang Huali stared at Shen Yu for a while, then at Chi Jiang: "Where's this one?"

Chi picked up the water glass on the table sadly, mourning for his lost special food.Chi Jiang said even more sadly: "I'm looking for someone. Old man Ge, my master, is a chef. Now I want to see if I can use some novel ingredients to make more delicious food."

When Shen Yu heard looking for someone, he glanced at General Chi.

Cornwalli paused, and then said: "The Jenny is indeed called a search ship in the legend. But it's just a legend. I hope you can find the person you are looking for."

He quickly changed the topic: "What novel ingredients do you want? Maybe I can help with this."

Chi Jiang was thinking about what to say.After all, he had never seen a single ingredient, so he didn't know where to start.

Shen Yu's nerves were highly concentrated, and he immediately changed the topic for Chi Jiang: "What he means is that he wants to explore a new realm of cooking. The ingredients are only one of the factors. Only by going out and walking more can you try to make new works."

Kang Huali was thoughtful.

The staff delivered the meal quickly.Chi Jiang smelled the aroma of food and looked at the food on the table.Just like what Shen Yu said before, the local food tends to be heavy.It is a heavy mouth style that accumulates fat.The meat likes to be smoked and grilled, the seasoning likes to use black pepper and white pepper, etc., and I like to add rich evaporated milk and cream. Sweet food can make people see how high the sugar content is.

Due to the proximity to the sea, there are a lot of seafood.It’s just that the way these seafood are processed, I don’t know why they like to use sea salt to smoke and roast.After the original fresh ingredients are paired with Shanghai salt, and many condiments are added, the taste of freshness is lost.

The appearance is compared with the food of the festival, but it is always a local delicacy.

Chi will cherish the food and solemnly prepare the meal.

Kang Huali saw that Chi Jiang did not reject normal meals, and followed Chi Jiang's words: "We have many aquaculture bases along the coast, and there are also some relatively famous aquatic product wholesale markets. One of the aquatic product wholesale markets sells rare marine fish. You guys Might be interested."

Chi Jiang picked up the chopsticks, became interested, and met Kang Huali's gaze: "Rare sea fish? Is it legal to eat? You should also have a biological protection law in your locality."

Kang Huali nodded rigorously: "It's legal. The taste of these sea fish is different, but it's a pity that it's difficult to salvage, and the cost of breeding and transportation is extremely high, so the price is high. They will rot soon after death. I ate it once when I was young, and later I have always been thinking about it. It is a pity that I traveled far to study very early, and my work and family are far away from the sea. It was not until I came back 18 years ago and spent a year at sea that I was able to eat it again. This year is also the restart of the Jenny. here."

When rich people say the price is high, it means it is really high.

Chi Jiang, who had no money, was deeply bewitched: "It would be a pity if I didn't get it."

Kang Huali nodded: "That's right. I'll ask someone to ask tonight. Maybe I can invite the two of you to taste it on the Jenny at noon tomorrow. It's delicious no matter what you do."

Listening to this topic, Shen Yu felt something was wrong.A delicacy that people can't forget for more than ten years is either the taste of hometown or addictive.

He raised his foot and stepped hard on Chi Jiang's instep under the dining table, trying to remind a certain chef.

A certain chef moved his foot away, unmoved, and firmly communicated with Kang Huali: "I can cook. I can definitely create delicious food that you have never tasted before. This is by no means a simple arithmetic that one plus one equals two."

Shen Yu raised his hand to cover it, and coughed: "Hmm——"

In order to be able to use new organisms as ingredients, Chi Jiang spoke solemnly, even Shen Yu would not let it go: "I can also start researching from medicinal diet, such as curing coughs."

Shen Yu: "..." Tsk, that's not what he meant at all!

The author says:

Pool will be teaching Minor Theater:

General Chi: Cherish the food when eating!But eating it is not good for your health, so don't force yourself.

Shen Yu: ... (trying to step on his foot)

Chi will: ^-^ (dodge)
