Chapter 20 Killing Turtles in the Kitchen
"Ah, that's true?" I can't believe it.
"Yes, I can't believe it either, but Ada won't lie to me. By the way, Ada said, I'll go to see him when you finish your work today, and he has something to tell you." Speaking of this, Qiu Dalang said with emotion: "It's amazing, Brother Yong, you are so young, it's really not easy. In the future, you should teach me more."
During the process of Qiu Dalang wearing the armor for me, I listened to Qiu Dalang's brief explanation. Uncle Qiu taught the hidden dragon sword technique. Its origin was mysterious, including two sets of martial arts. Uncle Qiu had learned the hidden dragon sword for his whole life, but he had not achieved the same shape. The hammer technique was even more similar. The reason why the hidden dragon sword technique is so difficult to learn is because the secrets of the hidden dragon sword are profound and difficult to understand, and the moves are strange, so it makes the general come out. Every move is incredible. The sword is like lightning, like a dragon, but the head is not seen but the tail is not seen. Therefore, most people can't learn this sword technique. Therefore, the Qiu family has never practiced it.
While sighing in my heart, I quickly put on my clothes, wrapped the dragon claw and gold chain knife and tied it to my body.
Actually, I really want to play a few more times and try the dragon claw hammer like a meteor hammer. But because time is tight, this kind of playful mentality is suppressed.
Qiu Dalang, Lan Ge'er and I went out with Uncle Qin and his wife who were pushing the car. As soon as we went out, we saw seven or eight young men guarding each other in groups outside.
I couldn't help but feel shocked. Could it be that I'm going to meet the Iron Axe Gang now?
Uncle Qin and Aunt Qin also looked a little cold, and they reached out to the cloth bag on the cart together.
For a moment, the situation suddenly became tense.
Unexpectedly, Qiu Dalang smiled: "Uncle Qin, Brother Yong, don't worry, these are all my friends. I was afraid that the other party would have many people, so I invited some brothers to help the boxing. I didn't have time to explain it just now, which shocked everyone, I'm sorry."
It turned out to be a false alarm.
Qiu Dalang was about to greet the brothers and follow them, and I suddenly said, "Brother Qiu, so many of you follow them together, but the goal is great. I think they will definitely not take action in the yard of Chen Da Businessmen. It is better to let the brothers stay on the necessary path between Chen Da Businessmen and our alley, hide them in advance, and appear again when necessary, and maybe it will play a greater role."
As soon as this said, everyone felt it was very wonderful. Qiu Dalang thought for a while and said, "Then according to what Brother Yong said, I will take my brothers to hide in front of me and wait for the critical moment before taking action." After that, he took my brothers to go first.
Lan Ge'er, Uncle Qin and I waited for a while, and set out towards Chen's business.
After half an hour's journey, we arrived at Chen Da Business House, and nothing happened along the way. When we arrived at the Chen family courtyard, we also felt relieved because the Chen family was one of the best big families in the county. I thought that no matter how fierce the Tie Axe Gang came, we would not dare to cause trouble in the Chen family.
We were welcomed by the Chen family's butler. After seeing us, he first brought me aside and said with awkward expression: "Erlang, now I have something to explain to you in advance. Originally, my master appointed you to the chef, but, the master is the only one, that..."
Looking at the butler's face, I said directly: "Best Manager, if you have something to say, if you don't need my chef, I will return the money I received."
Judging from his expression, there must be some changes.
The butler waved his hand and said, "Hey, that's not what it means, so I'll just say it. Our great master is used to eating the food of his own chef, so he specially invited the chef who has been doing business outside. Now, alas, I'll just say it, you don't have to cook the whole meal anymore, just pick up a few dishes."
When I thought this was the case, it would be even easier. I didn't care about the temporary adjustments to me. Even if I didn't need me, I would have no objection.
Sui thought of something again and asked, "Well, Dingyin?"
Since I don’t have to cook the whole set of dishes, do you have to refund the money?
"No need to refund, no need to refund, the commission will be the same! My master gave it to you specifically." The butler said immediately.
I felt happy. There was such a good thing, which saved effort and made a lot of money. I thanked the butler now.
Seeing that I was so reasonable, the housekeeper happily led us into the Chen family yard. After we arranged the things, the housekeeper Chen talked about Chen Dashang's request and the number of people invited.
I looked at the people in the kitchen and saw that many of them were older people. I could tell that they were people who often worked as chefs. These people must be those who have been chefs for many years. Without asking, they all are masters.
Butler Chen did not hide it from me and explained to me that these were all chefs scattered in their family. I also regarded myself as a junior and praised them a few words.
Those people think they are traveling around the world. Those with experience, hearing that I am so humble, have a doubled their favorability and praised him: "Master Song is modest, your cooking skills are naturally gone. It is famous throughout Puzhou. Your cooking skills are well-known. Everyone knows your name. We have long admired you."
Everyone said and bowed, and I retreated and returned the favor, but accidentally almost hit Brother Lan behind me.
Brother Lan helped me and whispered in my ear: "I didn't expect that your fame is so loud now."
I was already happy to be praised by all the chefs. Now, with Lan Ge'er's praise, I feel even more light and fluttering.
After everyone was humble to each other, I went into the kitchen to look at the ingredients and found that everything was complete. Of course, we prepared for the ingredients. We were all ready last night, needless to say. I looked at the knives on the table again, not to mention them, and they were all two or three sets. This must have been prepared by the Chen family, for fear that there would be conflicts with those masters when cooking.
They do theirs, and I do mine. Their dishes are mainly boiled and stewed, while I cook and fry.
The time is almost over, so I ordered that I should prepare vegetables and cut vegetables first. These tasks were done by Ling Xiao, Xie Jianfeng, Yuan Sihai, Guan Yang and others who should have helped me, but because of the special situation today, Lan Ge'er and Uncle Qin were not allowed to follow me.
It is said that I have nothing to do with this process, but after I put all the ingredients and oils in hand, I saw that they had not finished cutting it yet. When I was idle, I couldn't help but think of the Hidden Dragon Sword Technique and wondered if it could be used to cut vegetables as well.
So I joined the vegetable cutting team.
Because I have cooked every day, and my skills have gone thousands of miles a day, and my skills are definitely very skillful. Of course, this is not simple because I cook and cut vegetables every day. More importantly, it is because after I can travel through time, in addition to the amazing increase in my six senses and memory, the sensitivity of my hands and feet has also changed dramatically. In addition to the practice of cutting vegetables over the years, my skills of knife are not inferior to any older chef.
I tried to cut vegetables, but I didn't pay much attention at first, but slowly I found that the chefs seemed to be secretly trying to compete with me in the cutting skills.
After all, I am young and have been extremely sharp in my hands and feet recently, so I am willing to compete with them, so my subordinates have really put in the effort. The kitchen knife is in my hands, and it is as easy as my arms, and my hands are perfectly matched.
As long as each dish is in my hands, I can grasp the angle, strength and accuracy of the knife in less than a few seconds. Both hands are like magic. The more I cut, the more I feel at will, and the more I cut, the more I feel free.
It was originally a bulky kitchen knife, but when I entered my hand, it seemed to be full of life, flexible and versatile, and my hands kept applying each other, turning dishes with my left hand and cutting them with my right hand. When one knife fell, two knifes rose again, and cut them alternately, making people dazzled.
Seeing me being skilled in the swords, the old chefs couldn't help but admire him sincerely: "Oh, Master Xiao Song's skills are true, not fake. Judging from his sword skills, they are better than those of us who have been fighting for a lifetime."
"Yes, you see, he has reached the level of blind cutting. I think I can reach this point, but after practicing fifteen years of sword skills, my master praised me for being a rare master. Now I am ashamed to compare with Master Xiao Song."
"Who said it was no? You can't accept it. It depends on how old Master Xiao Song is. He is only in his prime and has such profound sword skills. He is definitely not the kind who has a false reputation."
I couldn't help but feel happy when I heard the praises of the masters. I saw even more rapidity when I took the knife. The master who helped me serve vegetables was too late, so I hurriedly asked a master to serve vegetables to me.
At this moment, I suddenly remembered the Long Yin sword technique in my mind. When I thought about it, I suddenly felt that the dragon claw and gold chain knife that was not on my waist seemed to tremble. I thought maybe I was unwilling to be lonely.
Thinking of this, I felt a whim and stretched out my hand to remove the dragon sword of the dragon claw, cleaned it with water, and stood directly on the cutting table. In my mind, I actually turned on the hidden dragon sword technique that Uncle Qiu practiced.
At this time, I looked at the dishes on the vegetable table, my eyes closed slightly, and then suddenly opened, and the dragon sword came out casually, falling down on the vegetable table like lightning, gently rubbing it, the dish had already separated, and then my wrists trembled, and the blade body turned into a phantom, rising and falling. On the vegetable table several feet long, the blade body flashed, and the dishes were like a sea of clouds, and the knife was like a dragon, and the ups and downs, and all kinds of dishes were filled with dishes, but after the dragon sword passed by, they did not change at all. After my palm was gently stroked, they all fell to one end.
Everyone looked closely, but they had already cut into thin strips like silk and placed them clearly on the table.
All the chefs praised him: "Good knife skills!"
But I smiled awkwardly: Damn, I just used the knife skills to show off my skills, but I cut them into thin strips. Oh, it’s not easy to stir-fry, let’s stew the soup.
Just prepare the soup that comes first.
Fortunately, the Chen family prepared enough dishes, so they didn't dare to show off their skills again. They cut the same dishes into strips again for use when cooking.
Because I was practicing knife, all the dishes were quickly cut. At this time, I asked someone to carry the two prepared buckets in and ask Lan Geer to take out the things inside.
Unexpectedly, Lan Ge'er screamed and jumped far away in fear.
Immediately afterwards, the chefs rushed to dodge and dared not get close to the bucket.
I laughed at it.
It turned out that the bucket was old turtles. These were all wild old turtles, all of which were as big as a small pot lid. In modern times, each one costs two or three thousand yuan per one, and it is not common. Now, Haha, I sent my two younger brothers to swim in the river and wanted to catch a few, but it didn't cost money. It's because no one dared to eat them!
I usually don’t bring this old turtle from a small family. This time, I thought that Chen Da Businessman was rich and powerful and had to make a few hard dishes, so I specially caught a few of the old turtles stocked at home to make them the top dish.
It turned out that Ling Xiao and Guan Yang had helped me with the kitchen once, and saw me making an old turtle once, which was also a big family. Today, I felt comfortable with the knife, and I forgot that Lan Ge'er had never cooked with me.
Not to mention that Lan Ge'er was so scared that he jumped around, the chefs were also so scared that they ran around. A few of them really picked it up and ran out of the kitchen.
In this era, no one eats old turtles. One is that they don’t know how to eat them, and the other is that they all regard them as dragon children. They are afraid that they will be unlucky and no one dares to try them easily.
I smiled, ignored everyone, grabbed an old turtle and washed it in the water, and placed it on the table.
As the sword falls, the old turtle is about to be killed.
Suddenly a voice stopped him and said, "Master Song, wait."
When I saw that he was the oldest chef Zhou, he could tell that he was the most prestigious among these chefs.
I hurriedly asked, "What advice does Master Zhou have?"
Master Zhou respected me very much and bowed first, saying, "I wonder, Master Song wants to cook with this black turtle?" They called the old turtle a black turtle.
"yes."
"Oh, I can't do it, I can't do it. Master Song may be young and don't know that this black turtle is the sixth son of a dragon, and is a spiritual object and cannot be eaten." Master Zhou was anxious and seemed to be something.
At this time, many chefs also talked about it: "Yes, this is a spiritual object, and eating it will lead to a life span."
"That's right, this kind of spiritual creature is a dragon's son. Not to mention eating it, even if you kill it, you will have nightmares."
I immediately explained to them that this was a very expensive dish in my hometown and that ordinary people could not eat it. In fact, this kind of thing will not only not reduce life, but also strengthen the muscles and bones, prolong life, and nourish the body and body.
But most of the people don't believe these words.
As he was explaining, Butler Chen also came to hear the news. When he came in, he was shocked to see such a big old turtle holding such a big hand: "Master Song, what are you doing?"
I said, "This is a main dish specially prepared for the Chen Da Merchant. I have specially looked for the best quality turtle. No, it's so black. I don't sell it for ordinary people."
Mr. Chen's faces were squeezed together and he almost cried: "Oh, my master, why did this make me dare not eat such a spiritual thing."
I explained it to him again, but Butler Chen still shook his head and refused to believe it.
My eyes turned and thought about it. To deal with the ancients, I should pay attention to methods. I said: "Butler Chen, I will not hide it from it. You are not saying that this old turtle, no, it is a black turtle, which ordinary people cannot eat, but I am different. I am a Taoist inheritance. Not only can I subdue demons and demons, but I can also refine its original nature. Moreover, my master once gave me a special trick. When I kill this old turtle, no, black turtle, as long as I recite the spell, this old turtle, this old turtle, will be subdued and then I can be killed. See, I
This knife is the Dragon Slaying Sword, which weighs 69 kilograms per single weight, and it is generally not lifted. Moreover, the material is made of the Nine Heavens Xuanjin Iron Sutra Tianshan Snow Water and Samadhi True Fire. It took three years to successfully make it. This is also specially used with my Taoist spell. You don’t know that the black turtle I killed can increase the lifespan after eating. If the Chen Da Merchant had not invited me today, how could I have made this dish so much? Isn’t this all for the sake of your Chen family?”
I can blow, and I blushed myself, but my heart didn't beat, because I knew that the ancients believed in promises, and most people would not tell lies. Since I dared to say it, I would dare to promise that they would believe it.
I thought to myself, if this is not possible, I won’t say anything else, we will take the money for the turtle to stew the soup by ourselves.
Although Mr. Chen is also a person with great knowledge, he saw that I was so whispering and whispering seriously that he didn't dare to make decisions without authorization. He hesitated for a long time and said, "Master Song, after hearing what you said, I really can't make decisions about this matter. Please wait for a moment. Please wait."
