Section 873 Food
After sitting in the office and surfing the Internet for two days, Chen Xing finally regained his composure and recovered from the state of being so exhausted that he didn't want to do anything.
When he got up in the morning, after eating the loving breakfast cooked by Cuilisi, Chen Xing took her to discuss business matters.
The war in the south has come to an end, and no new war will be launched until the situation in Tianqin is completely stabilized. In other words, Chen Xing can be busy with his own affairs in the next two to four weeks.
In fact, he has always asked Critical Club and Lu Shanhai to help keep an eye on the spiritual artifacts, because he relied on this to upgrade.
Counterfeit artifacts of the spiritual type usually have the word "infinite" in them, such as infinite water bottles, infinite food cabinets, etc.
However, this kind of counterfeit weapon is very rare. The reason for its rarity is not because it is powerful, but precisely because it has little effect and is in a "tasteless" position among many counterfeit weapons.
If there is no way to communicate with earth fire, absorbing one or two low-level spiritual artifacts is not enough to support the consumption of Yuling, and it also involves huge risks. If there is a way to communicate with earth fire, the energy from two different sources will be mixed together, and it will be in vain.
It increases the difficulty of control, and the gain outweighs the loss.
Generally speaking, those with low strength cannot afford it, and those with high strength cannot use it, so it is not common on the market. Even if it does exist, it is only a collection for the rich.
Therefore, in the past six months, Chen Xing has received very little.
Chen Xing discussed with Cuilisi just to see if the Supreme Power had any other channels for information.
"Hmm..." Cuilisi thought for a while and asked Chen Xing to go back to Noyes with her.
Neuss is an ancient country in the Western Continent. It once ruled half of the Western Continent. Its historical status is equivalent to the "Eastern Roman Empire" or the "Holy Roman Empire" on earth.
The treasure house of the Thousand-Year Empire must have a very rich collection, and there might be something Chen Xing needs in it.
Before Triris got married, she was the eldest princess of Neuss, so it was normal for her to go back to her parents' house to get some things.
"How to get there?" Chen Xing asked.
"Take my chariot, and I'll bring you some good food for lunch." Cuilis said with a bit of mystery.
Soon the two people set off from the backyard, and saw six extremely strong nightmare horses stepping on the blazing hooves, pulling the bloody chariot up to the clouds, flying towards the west so fast that it was like a fleeting light.
Sitting in the carriage, outside is the endless sea of clouds. It is beautiful at first sight, but the unchanging scenery becomes boring after a few minutes.
When a man feels bored and has a beautiful woman who is known as "the best in the world" by his side, then it is very obvious what he wants to do to pass the time.
"Don't, don't be here..."
Triris rarely refused, "I want to control the chariot. It would be bad if it falls."
Chen Xing lost his temper and had no intention of letting her go. While raising and lowering his hands, he joked carelessly, "Aren't you the most powerful person? Why can't you do such a small thing well?"
"Okay, okay..." Triris couldn't resist him, so she had to cooperate, but she still begged in his ear, "Wait, don't be too fierce later, otherwise you will really fall..."
Not long after, the bloody chariot began to snake around, flying up and down, and the nightmare horse seemed to be drunk.
Female drivers are always killers on the road, and they have to endure such things. Fortunately, they were not on the main road, otherwise it would have caused a major car accident, knocking off countless pedestrians and vehicles.
The journey was uneventful. A few hours later, the nightmare horse dragged the chariot down from the clouds and appeared above a sea of ice.
There was an icy wind blowing outside the window, and a layer of ice crystals instantly formed on the glass. Looking from a distance, it seemed that the outline of the mountains could be seen.
"This is the Icewind Strait. Have you never been here before?"
Triris explained while getting dressed.
Icewind Strait is known as one of the coldest places in the world, with cold winds carrying ice slag blowing all year round. This sea is the closest between the Western Continent and the Red Earth Continent, and to the north is the end of the Dragon Mountains - the Giant Dragon Mountains.
Dragon Glacier, to the south is the northern end of the Andes Mountains of the Western Continent. It is sandwiched between two large mountains, forming a huge vent with the Atlantic Ocean outside.
"What is there to eat here?" Chen Xing couldn't help but wonder.
"Have you ever heard of the fishing boat Laojiu? His boat will be parked here this season." Cuilis said.
"I have been to Wangchuan Hotel." Chen Xing replied.
Wangchuan Zhaosi, Glacier Niusan, Fishing Boat Laojiu, and Shazhou Melon King are collectively known as the four great chefs.
Triris then sent out a large number of bloody chariots to find the location of the fishing boat.
"Let me do it!" Chen Xing volunteered and launched a tactical satellite to help search.
If it were on land, it would be difficult for tactical satellites to focus due to the huge amount of information, but here is the inaccessible Icewind Strait. No fishing boat except for lunatics would easily enter. There is only one target on the vast sea, so tactical satellites are very convenient to find.
At Chen Xing's request, the bloody chariot flew in a roundabout manner within a ten-kilometer reconnaissance range and quickly found the location of the fishing boat.
"My baby is so amazing!" Trilis praised sincerely. If it were normal times, it would have taken her half an hour or more to find the fishing boat.
The bloody chariot gradually descended, and a simple fishing boat appeared on the ice sea.
It is a wooden structure, covered with straw mats, and a red lantern hung under the eaves, with the words "sashimi", "yakimono" and "sushi" written on it in calligraphy.
The owner of the fishing boat already felt that a guest was coming, so he opened the straw mat and went to the bow of the boat to greet him.
"Welcome to Her Majesty the Queen!"
"Welcome to you, Prime Minister!"
The big fat man in chef's uniform bowed ninety degrees towards Cuilisi and Chen Xing. Completely different from the indifference of Zhao Si at Arakawa Hotel, Fishing Boat Lao Jiu had a smile on his face, and his fleshy face was filled with a warm and hospitable smile.
Entering the cabin, the decoration inside is simple and clean. The floor is covered with rush mats commonly known as "tatami". Four young men and women, who appear to be the apprentices of the fishing boat's ninth boss, kneel on the mats and bow to Cuilisi and Chen Xing.
"Welcome to Her Majesty the Queen!"
"Welcome to you, Prime Minister!"
Triris nodded, walked to the low-leg dining table and knelt down.
Judging from the performances of both parties, Cuillis should be a frequent visitor here.
Chen Xing also sat down, and the fishing boatman Lao Jiu trotted over with a flattering smile on his face, "Your Majesty, I just shot a blue-fin golden gun this morning, which is just right for a golden gun banquet."
Cuilisi looked at Chen Xing, as if asking for his opinion.
Fishing boatman Lao Jiu is a very discerning person. He immediately turned to Chen Xing and explained, "The bluefin tuna in this season has the best meat quality. In the frozen sea, the fish meat is more compact, the fishy smell is minimized, and the entrance is cold.
Refreshing is one of the best flavors in the world."
"Okay." Chen Xing nodded.
"Please wait!"
After receiving Chen Xing's permission, Fishing Boat Laojiu immediately stood up and called two male apprentices to go out to help, and the two female apprentices
Then he stayed in the cabin to serve the guests.
Probably because they knew that Cuilisi had a cold temper, or were afraid of being affected by Cuilisi's demonic beauty, the two female apprentices lowered their eyes, poured wheat tea for them, served a few side dishes, and then retreated.
Waiting for orders.
The side dishes include seaweed, baby octopus, natto, etc., which are snacks for people. These dishes are often made by Chen Xing, so they can't be said to be fresh.
Chen Xing was a little curious about how the fish was killed, so he ran out of the cabin to take a look.
The big blue-fin tuna is more than two meters long and is hung upside down on the bow of the boat. It is very big. With the help of two apprentices, the fish was unloaded onto a long chopping board. The fishing boatman Lao Jiu first wiped the fish body with a towel.
He moved very carefully, as if he were treating his lover.
After wiping the fish body, fishing boatman Lao Jiu put on a mask, picked up the sharp knife next to him, pierced the fish's neck, and slowly cut downwards. Then he changed to a larger sharp knife and cut off the entire fish head.
Then he cut open the back of the fish with a knife, and two strips of bright red fish flesh were exposed, with fine texture, like a work of art.
Then peel the skin and take out the meat. The movements of the fishing boat Lao Jiu are unhurried and unhurried, and every move is very precise, as pleasing to the eye as flowing clouds and flowing water.
The fish meat that was taken out was long and square, and looked like a whole log.
"Red, this piece of meat is closest to the head, with tight texture and crisp texture."
While cutting the meat, the fishing boatman Lao Jiu did not forget to introduce it to Chen Xing.
"The midsection, the fattest and tenderest part, has a smooth and fragrant taste, fat but not greasy..."
As he spoke, Fishing Boat Lao Jiu's expression suddenly changed without warning, he stopped what he was doing and looked up at the sky.
Chen Xing immediately felt a huge pressure approaching from above.
At the same time, a powerful aura erupted from the fishing boat, as if a huge fountain shot straight into the sky.
In an instant, the sky was dim, the sun and moon were dim, and two powerful momentums collided together. The waves surged, the fishing boat jolted violently, and the lantern hanging on the eaves of the boat swung back and forth, flickering on and off.
After a few seconds, the sky cleared up after the rain and became bright again.
The inexplicable pressure was gradually disappearing. The fishing boat Lao Jiu put down his fish-killing knife, walked to the bow, and bowed deeply in the direction where the strong man left.
It seemed that another supreme powerhouse wanted to come over for dinner, but it turned out that there were already guests, and they were of the same level. The king did not see the king, so he had no choice but to leave.
After a while, the fish was served. The tuna fillets were neatly arranged, and the bright red fish looked very tempting.
Dip it in some mustard and soy sauce, it's cool, refreshing and delicious.
"Have some sake, it tastes good." Fishing boat Laojiu poured the wine for Chen Xing himself. He had already seen that serving Chen Xing would please Cui Lisi more.

Later, Fishing Boat Laojiu made fresh fish bone soup, grilled fish skin sushi, and tuna salad. He is worthy of being one of the four great chefs. Each one has delicious food that touches the soul, making people immersed in the joy of eating.
"Thank you for your patronage. The fee is five thousand gold coins."
The female apprentice took a small book and cautiously quoted the price, and Cuillis paid the money readily.
Five thousand gold coins for a meal, I have to say, is terrifyingly expensive. Converted to the price of goods on earth, it is five million for a meal.
But to the Queen of Ice Blue City, a meal of five million is nothing.
