Chapter 28 Songshan On Cooking

Seeing that Ma Xier and others were confused, Wu Sanya knew that several people didn’t know about the “Songshan Ruiji Festival”, so he explained:

"If you want to talk about the 'Songshan Auspicious Chicken Festival', it is a new thing that has been created this year. It is said that two rich men who run restaurants in Dengfeng City had a dispute over auspicious golden roosters. So they invited friends all over the world to have a competition on the steep peak of Songshan.

"The lucky head is this auspicious golden rooster."

"The world's competition includes literary and military competitions. But these two rich men took a unique approach and thought that they both opened restaurants, so they just wanted to compete in a kitchen. Do you think this matter is new or not?"

"Actually, we just learned about this. It just so happened that you went to Junjifeng, so it was better to go with us and be more lively."

Dian Dian heard about such new things and his eyes were a little shiny. She remembered that Zhang Xiaofan said, "If you want to grab a man's heart, you must grab his stomach."

Although I understand the meaning, I really don’t have any skills in cooking. At this time, I heard that there was a kitchen competition on this Junji Peak, and I immediately became interested.

When Zhang Xiaofan heard that the mysterious "Buji" master went to Junjifeng, he thought that he had something to do with this "Songshan Ruiji Festival". So he also wanted to go and have a look.

As for Wang Yanlin and Ma Xier, they were all right. However, they originally planned to visit Shaolin, but they didn’t expect to cause such a quarrel. Shaolin Temple cannot go to see this "Songshan Ruiji Festival".

Of course, it would be fine if you walk along with this hippie and smiling Wu Sanya.

When Ma Xier knew that she had to deal with a shameless person, she had to directly refuse.

So he said seriously: "Brother Wu, we have female relatives around us, and it is not easy to walk with you all the way, so it is better to go separate. Let's leave here and have the opportunity to have a relationship again."

Seeing that Ma Xier was determined, Wu Sanya had to give up. She only saw Wang Yanlin and her group walking far away, and then murmured: "What a pity..."

Without mentioning Wu Sanya's shaking her head and sighing, she said that Zhang Xiaofan and others headed straight to Junji Peak.

This steep peak is on the highest peak of Taishi Mountain. On the top is a flat land, which has always been the place where the emperor has been the Fengshan place. In "The Smiling and Proud Wanderer", Zuo Lengchan's Five Mountains and Bians were held in this place.

Junjifeng is still some distance away from Shaolin Temple. Wang Yanlin added fifty cents to his guide Liu Daqiang, and Liu Daqiang led everyone to go happily.

Walking along the mountain, although the cliffs were steep, there were quite a few people walking along the way, probably all of whom went to watch the lively event of this Ruiji Festival.

When everyone climbed to the top of the mountain, their hearts were clear. The surrounding mountains were all at their feet, and the Yellow River in the distance was like a thin silver thread under the sunlight.

Ma Xier pointed to the westernmost end of the Yellow River and said, "That night, we floated over there, and it really drifted far away."

Everyone looked at the Yellow River that seemed to come from the sky, and they all sighed.

At the center of Junji Peak is a circular stone platform made of countless marijuana stones, also known as Fengshantai.

The former emperor wanted to burn watches on this platform to worship the heavens and carry out feudal sects.

At this time, beside the Fengshan Platform, there were already people watching. There were three people standing in the middle on the Fengshan Platform. The person in the middle was full of fierceness, but he was wearing a Ming official uniform. The patch on his chest was embroidered with a tiger, and it seemed that he was a general.

On the top of this general, an old monk stood with wrinkles on his face, looking quite old. He was also an official of the Ming Dynasty, but he was wearing a red flying fish suit. He looked like he was an official of the Jinyiwei.

On both sides of the three people, two big pots were burned at the same time. A group of people were surrounded by the big pots. It seemed that they were the chefs and friends from the two restaurants mentioned by Wu Sanya.

Zhang Xiaofan looked around and found no other monk except the old monk on the stage. He also saw no player with a "nickname" on his head.

He thought to himself: "This old monk is probably the abbot of Shaolin Temple. As he is, he actually stands on one side, and he doesn't know who the Ming Dynasty general is in the middle."

Just as I was thinking about it, I saw that the general in the middle saw that the people around me were almost here, so I shouted loudly:

"Dear friends from all walks of life and the people from all over the world. Some may know me, and some do not. Then I will introduce myself. In the next chapter, Li Jiyu is our general in Henan."

"What kind of official is this general? In other words, the entire Henan is under my control."

"The upper controls the sky, the lower controls the ground, and the middle controls shit and fart."

"Don't laugh at me for being rough. I am the local from Dengfeng. I remember that I was led by a group of brothers to occupy the mountain and become king on this Songshan Mountain."

"At that time, I thought I could make a full meal, but I didn't expect that I could make a fortune."

"Now, there are thousands of copycats in Henan, and I, Li Jiyu, are ordered by me."

Ma Xier listened to Li Jiyu's introduction on the stage and couldn't help but curl her lips and said to herself: "What is the general of Henan? It's just a thief leader. The whole Henan is under your control. I heard that Luoyang is now occupied by Duoduo, and I will say it when you have the ability to defeat Luoyang."

Li Jiyu didn't know Ma Xier's complaint from the audience and continued: "I didn't have anything to do today. However, one of the victims is a brother Zhu Ba who was a copycat and had no capital transaction with me."

"Now he has opened a Zuixianju in the city by washing his hands, but he has a dispute with the shopkeeper of Jianglang Building, Mr. Shui, because of a golden rooster."

"Since you have washed your hands with golden basin, you can no longer solve the problem according to the rules of the world. So today we use the rules of the city to discuss the truth with the chef."

"Don't ask whether it's right or wrong, just ask about cooking skills."

"The best cooking skill is the golden rooster who won this prize."

After hearing Li Jiyu's introduction, Zhang Xiaofan suddenly heard the familiar name "Jianglang Tower". He felt a little strange. He turned to ask the guide Liu Daqiang next to him and said:

"I remember this Jianglang Building is in Kaocheng, why do you have one in Dengfeng?"

Liu Daqiang smiled and said, "You are really an expert. This Jianglang Building is in Kaocheng, but we have one in Dengfeng. The one in Kaocheng is a semicolon. The one in Dengfeng is the general number."

"Shui Ye is the owner of Jianglang Tower, known as Shui Bancheng. Half of Dengfeng City can be said to be full of other people's Shui Ye's business."

"You Tao is a powerful dragon that does not suppress local snakes. Shui Ye is not a local snake, but a real local dragon."

"I think that person named Zhu Ba cannot win today."

Zhang Xiaofan shook his head and said, "Have you heard that Li Jiyu on the stage is all Zhu Ba's brothers? I think Zhu Ba may not lose."

As if he heard Zhang Xiaofan’s remarks, Li Jiyu on the stage continued: “My friends may be worried, since I am Zhu Ba’s brother, will I be biased and swayed.”

"Please rest assured that this point is. What I, Li Jiyu, talked about in my life, is just a fairness. Since I talk about cooking in public, I will naturally not be biased."

As he said that, he pointed to the old monk beside him and said, "So this time I also invited the abbot of Shaolin Temple, Master Bukong."

He pointed to the official of the Jinyiwei: "Teach you a witness with this Jinyiwei Yangzhou assistant Lord Zhao Qilong."

"Now the country's fortune is shaking, but this meal is always something to eat. The old saint Kong said that he never tires of eating fine meat and fine meat. Is this the more particular you pay, the better you should eat."

"In this way, let me, Zhu Ba's brothers Zuixianju, perform first."

As soon as Li Jiyu finished speaking, a big man with bearded face walked out among the people on his right, hugged and clasped his fists in public, and said aloud:

"I'm not to hide it from you. I'm the leader of Heifeng Village. I accidentally got a rooster that could lay golden eggs, so I washed my hands and prepared to go down the mountain to live this life honestly."

"But who would have thought that the rich man in this city was even more ruthless than us thieves. He said that the golden rooster was lost and that he wanted to present the auspiciousness to the court..."

When everyone heard that there was a rooster that could produce golden eggs, they couldn't help but whisper. Zhang Xiaofan was also curious and looked around for a while. Sure enough, he saw a chicken cage in a conspicuous place on the stage.

There is a rooster with a red cockscomb inside, looking very energetic. It seems to be no different from an ordinary cock. However, on the rooster's head, there are two words "Golden Rooster" on it.

Zhang Xiaofan was surprised and thought to himself: "In this game, only the players in the game have nicknames on their heads. I don't know why the rooster actually has the word "nickname" on its head."

"It's not played by the player..."

"Or maybe some quest items in the game... If you have the chance, you can get them and study them carefully."

Zhang Xiaofan was distracted, while Zhu Ba on the stage was talking endlessly. Just as he was about to talk about how the "Shui Master" in Jianglang Tower in Dengfeng was bullying the market, he was stopped by Li Jiyu and said, "Brother Zhu Ba, we agreed today, we will only talk about cooking skills, not right or wrong. You also agreed."

Zhu Ba nodded and said, "Okay, let's compare the cooking skills today. Let the old and young men in Dengfeng see if I have the skills of Zuixianju or the food in Jianglanglou is more particular."

As he said that, he gave up a position and called the chef from Zuixianju behind him, saying, "This is Master Li from Zuixianju in our store. He is a famous chef I invited from Sichuan. Today I will make a dish of chickpea for you."

The people around you have eaten this tofu, but the people around you have never heard of it. I heard that it was a chef invited from afar in Sichuan, and the people around you even called it out in unison.

Master Li from Sichuan didn't say much, took out two wooden sticks and beat the chicken breasts on the chopping board. At the same time, he ordered his apprentices to boil the big pot and hang the soup.

The chicken bean soup is very different from the ordinary ones. After boiling the chicken, duck, and ribs into thick soup, pour out the remaining chicken, duck, and ribs.

Then add the chicken paste. Use the chicken paste to completely absorb the thick oil in the soup. Then pour out the chicken paste.

After repeated several times, the original soup was clear.

At this time, take another chicken breast, beat it into a paste as delicate as tofu, and then pour it on the clear soup that had been hung over just now. This bowl of chickpea is considered to be made.

The emphasis is on the one who "eat chicken but not chicken, and eats meat but not meat." The taste is the same as tofu, but the taste is still as delicious as chicken. The most tests the skill of the heat, and ordinary Sichuan masters dare not try it easily.

Zhang Xiaofan naturally ate this chickpea flower many times, and he also knew that it was all based on the master's craftsmanship and skills that the last chickpea flower could be just like the real one, which was considered excellent.

At this time, from a distance, I saw that the chickpea made in Zuixianju was as white as jade, and was trembling in a bowl, but it was condensed but not dispersed. I knew that the chickpea was very well made.

The people around them didn't know the beauty of this chickpea, but they also saw the whole chicken, duck, and ribs just for the soup. They threw them away without hesitation.

It is conceivable that the final essence must be extremely delicious, so everyone applauded and praised it.

The chef of Zuixianju served three bowls and delivered them to Li Jiyu and the other three. He served more than a dozen cups in small cups and handed them to a row of people sitting under the stage.

Only then did Zhang Xiaofan see that there was a row of people sitting in the audience, probably local gentry. Let's find them to judge together.

The abbot of Shaolin was not upset, so he picked up the bowl and sniffed it, but did not taste it. He just said, "Menci do not eat meat, but look at its color and taste, it is undoubtedly delicious."

Li Jiyu and the others ignored those things and drank them all together. Everyone was still unsatisfied with the expression and praised them all.

Zhu Ba was proud of himself. Just as he was about to say a few words, he heard a bold voice beside him saying, "Supply a bowl of me and I'll try it too."

Zhu Ba looked in the voice and saw a strong woman walking out from the opposite side.

Zhu Ba asked, wondering why, “Who are you?”

Before the woman could answer, a man dressed in a private place walked up and said, "This is my wife's family, and she will take charge of Jianglang Tower today."

The woman ignored them and walked straight to the front of the Zuixianju pot, and ordered a bowl. After tasting two bites, she poured the remaining half bowl on the ground.

He said: "I think it's the same."

The chef and the guy in Zuixianju suddenly glared at him.

Zhang Xiaofan thought this scene was really funny. The woman in front of her face was extremely big, just like Buu in the "Dragon Ball" comic.

He didn't know who these two were, so he turned around and asked Liu Daqiang beside him, "Who are you two?"

Liu Daqiang said: "The person dressed up by the official is Shuibancheng Shuiye. The woman next to him is his wife."

Zhang Xiaofan said in surprise: "Since it is Gui, why does Master Shui's wife seem to have to take charge of the game in person?"

Liu Daqiang said: "You don't know that this Jianglang Tower was originally from Mrs. Shui. Later, she married Mr. Shui. She then married the chicken and followed the chicken. She got married with the Jianglang Tower."

"Shui Master also relies on Jianglang Building as the foundation, and the transactions are getting bigger and bigger. It can be said that the husband is based on his wife's wealth. If Mrs. Shui Master is not as good as Mrs. Shui, I'm afraid he's still unspoken."

"This Mrs. Shui doesn't look like this. It is said that she was a well-known cook when she was young. Her cooking skills were all the masters of Jianglanglou back then. Unexpectedly, Mrs. Shui took action personally today."

"It's hard to say whether you win or lose this time."
