When Ding Yi returned home, he smelled the aroma of meat from a distance.
He walked into the yard with some doubts, but found that his sister-in-law was cleaning something. When he took a closer look, he realized that it was a piece of meat.
Hearing the footsteps, Shen Luoyan was startled, but when he saw it was Ding Yi, he immediately smiled at him, and then continued to clean up.
Ding Yi looked familiar to the meat and couldn't help but ask: "Sister-in-law, what are you..."
"Oh, didn't you serve as a mentor for someone last night? I got a hundred taels of silver. Thinking of how hard you practiced, I decided to buy these flamed pork. By the way, they had already been steamed. "Longyan Pork Buns, are you hungry? Go ahead and eat, my sister-in-law will get things ready right now."
Shen Luoyan still buried his head in washing.
Ding Yi was slightly dazed, and then asked: "Then which house did you go to?"
Shen Luoyan finally raised his head, smoothed his hair, gave Ding Yi a reassuring smile, and said: "Haha, don't worry, my sister-in-law has already asked about it. I went to the Liu family in the west of the city. How nice is Miss Liu?" Now, I’m teaching her naughty and cute little nephew. That child refuses to listen to anyone. But after seeing me, he became very friendly to me, so they kept me."
"Liu family?" Ding Yi was a little dumbfounded. Liu Zhilan was very fierce, but since her sister-in-law was going to their place, she could rest assured.
But Ding Yi immediately remembered something and said hurriedly: "By the way, sister-in-law, don't cook this meat yet. I will refine it and make it into food balls. The effect will be better than ordinary cooking."
Upon hearing this, Shen Luoyan felt that it was right. She knew Ding Yi's refining skills, and the medicinal powder was indeed magical.
Therefore, Shen Luoyan put the meat on the plate, wiped it, stood up, and said: "Ding Yi, why don't you teach me how to refine it, so that you don't have to waste time when you come back in the future. My sister-in-law has nothing to do at home anyway. ."
Ding Yi was stunned, but immediately felt that what Shen Luoyan said made sense. Although refining was not an easy task, simple refining could still be taught. For example, refining the flame pork was only a first-level low-grade demon. Beast meat is not difficult to refine.
After thinking about it, Ding Yi decided to teach Shen Luoyan how to refine it.
Later, Ding Yi went out to buy some ingredients, then came back and brought the meat and ingredients to the kitchen.
Shen Luoyan followed in, her eyes full of curiosity. She had never asked Ding Yi how he learned this refining skill, but she believed in Ding Yi.
In this way, Ding Yi began to cut and pound the meat, and poured in all the ingredients.
"These ingredients are leeks, green leaves and perilla, right?" Shen Luoyan was surprised, because those ingredients were very common.
"Haha, yes, a refiner needs to use the most common materials, the simplest way, through various combinations and proportions, and then refine and transform them under a certain amount of conscious control. This is refining." Ding Yi said on the side. Kneading the meat paste, he smiled.
Shen Luoyan nodded repeatedly, obviously remembering it carefully.
After kneading the meat paste, Ding Yi flattened the meat paste, then narrowed his eyes slightly and said: "Sister-in-law, please watch carefully, the next step is very critical. This flame pork is the first-order low-grade monster meat and needs to be refined. It can be refined only when the master reaches the meditation level, because it requires the consciousness of meditation to completely crush the meat and remove impurities!"
Shen Luoyan nodded again, his eyes looking at Ding Yi for a moment, looking cute and charming.
Ding Yi, however, concentrated on refining. Although he was already familiar with this method when refining food powder, he still did not dare to neglect it since the materials were changed at this moment.
Pressing his hands on the meat, he entered a meditative state. Instantly, the meat under his palms felt clearly, and no tendons or impurities could escape his observation!
Then, Ding Yi's hands were like butterflies, flying up and down on the meat paste, snapping, snapping...
Continuous tapping, gentle, rhythmic, full of rhythm!
Shen Luoyan's eyes were bright when he saw it. At this moment, Ding Yi looked calm, his squinted eyes were extremely focused, and his long eyelashes seemed to be trembling slightly, which made Shen Luoyan feel in a trance.
boom!
After the last, heavy beating, Ding Yi exhaled and kneaded the meat into a ball again.
"Sister-in-law, the first step is completed. You see, these are all impurities." Ding Yi swept the tendons and impurities on the table, and Shen Luoyan nodded knowingly to express his understanding.
Ding Yi didn't say much and started to roll the minced meat into balls.
Finally, the meat paste was kneaded into a ball, and Ding Yi said to Shen Luoyan: "Sister-in-law, this is the second step, separating the meat paste. This step is also very critical, and it also requires meditation and cooperation."
After saying that, Ding Yi narrowed his eyes slightly again, quickly rolled the meat into thumb-sized balls, and threw them on the table.
Shen Luoyan's mouth opened wide when she saw this move. Only then did she realize that Ding Yi's skills were so amazing.
Yes, if a person refines several kilograms of waste for a month, no matter how stupid he is, his proficiency is probably very strong.
Moreover, these meatballs are evenly distributed on the table, looking very neat and unique.
After kneading the meatballs, Ding Yi breathed a sigh of relief again. Fortunately, he was proficient enough. He had failed many times when kneading rice flour. Now he had a solid foundation, kneaded the meatballs at an even speed, and grasped the timing very well.
"Sister-in-law, please don't slow down, because when separated, the energy of the meat paste will dissipate to a certain extent. The sooner we separate, the better." Ding Yi ordered, then took the plate and put a meat ball into it. Collected them.
Ding Yi walked to the steamer and put plates of mud balls in it.
After lighting up the fire again, Ding Yi said: "Sister-in-law, this is the third step. The cooking temperature is the key step. Because the monster meat contains energy, it should not be too high at the beginning. Cook it over a slow fire, and then in order to prevent it from cooling. After the energy has passed away, it is necessary to burn it with fierce fire to fix the energy!"
Shen Luoyan nodded repeatedly, his eyes full of expectation.
Ding Yi smiled and started to light a fire.
It took about half an hour before all the meatballs were finally made.
Ding Yi picked up a meatball and handed it to Shen Luoyan.
Shen Luoyan took it and took a bite, and immediately frowned. Ding Yi couldn't help laughing. Seeing Shen Luoyan glared at him, he couldn't help but waved his hand and said: "Sister-in-law, you will know the real meaning later." It tastes good.”
As soon as Ding Yi finished speaking, a look of surprise appeared on Shen Luoyan's face, and then he couldn't believe it. He swallowed the food pill in one gulp and praised repeatedly: "Oh, it's delicious. I didn't expect it to be so delicious." ?”
"Haha, that's right, but it smelled a little weird at first, but after the smell passed, it can be said that all the hardships are over!" Ding Yi said with a smile, squinting his eyes.
"Okay, sister-in-law, would you like to try?"
Shen Luoyan nodded, but was still a little unsure and said, "How about we experiment with other meat first? This monster meat is too expensive."
Ding Yi shook his head and said with a smile: "That won't work, sister-in-law, you have to know that refining requires monster meat to make food pills. Although it will fail, it is inevitable. If we don't try, Wouldn’t that never happen?”
"Okay, let me try." Shen Luoyan also felt that Ding Yi was right, so he took another piece of meat and began to chop it into pieces, finally mincing it into minced meat.
Then knead the ingredients in, and then start the first step to remove impurities.
Shen Luoyan took a deep breath and remembered Ding Yi's actions just now. Ding Yi's actions were very clear in her mind. She could even see the faint smile and confidence clearly, as if they were engraved on them.
Therefore, Shen Luoyan successfully removed the impurities according to Ding Yi's method with almost no effort.
Ding Yi was a little surprised, because he had wasted a lot of things in this step, but his sister-in-law actually succeeded in one breath, and it seemed that the movements were very skillful, as if she had done it many times.
How did Ding Yi know that Shen Luoyan's actions just now were deeply engraved in Shen Luoyan's mind. Shen Luoyan didn't even know why he could do it. He entered the meditation stage because of Ding Yi, and now he is learning refining because of Ding Yi. Perhaps it's because her lifelong hopes have been pinned on Ding Yi.
In this way, Shen Luoyan quickly entered the second and third steps.
Everything was successful, and it was completed without even a single mistake. Ding Yi was really impressed.
Although it is very difficult to refine the first-level low-grade food pills, he failed countless times in refining the food powder. Ding Yi was really ashamed of himself for this.
After refining, Shen Luoyan was very happy and tasted the food pills again. They were exactly the same as those made by Ding Yi!
Afterwards, Shen Luoyan naturally did everything, and she quickly turned the remaining pieces of meat into food balls.
Three hours later, there was a plate of steamed buns, a plate of rice balls, and some special dishes made by Shen Luoyan on the table. Although these dishes were made with ordinary ingredients, they were full of color, flavor and flavor, and were naturally much more delicious than rice balls. .
Shen Luoyan picked up the bun and took a few bites, then picked up the food pill and ate it. He nodded and said: "Refined food has higher energy than ordinary steamed food. This bun only has less than 3% energy." Energy, but this food pill actually reaches 800%."
"Yes, this refining is very magical. In fact, it can not only refine monster meat, but also herbs, spiritual iron, etc." Ding Yi nodded while eating.
Later, under Shen Luoyan's curious inquiry, Ding Yi told her the role of the refiner, which surprised Shen Luoyan.
Although Shen Luoyan never asked Ding Yi where he learned his skills, she was still extremely curious.
When Ding Yi saw it, he just smiled but didn't say much. Instead, he said: "Sister-in-law, you don't have to buy monster meat from now on. I'll go hunting."
"What? How is this possible..." Shen Luoyan was immediately surprised and a little angry, because he told Ding Yi last time not to let him become a hunter.
But before she finished speaking, Ding Yi smiled and said: "Sister-in-law, don't be angry, listen to me."
Shen Luoyan glared at him angrily, obviously planning that if Ding Yi didn't give a reasonable explanation, she would never agree.
Ding Yi smiled faintly and said: "Sister-in-law, one moment and another moment. I was not strong enough to hunt monster beasts at the beginning, but now, I can do it, so I want to hunt monster beasts instead of being an ordinary hunter. ah."
"Ah? Hunting monsters?" Upon hearing this, Shen Luoyan became even more worried.
Ding Yi waved his hand and said: "Sister-in-law, I know what you are worried about, but you have to know that the most important thing for a martial arts practitioner is to constantly hone yourself. Hunting monsters is an indispensable lesson on the road to cultivation. , Without bloody battles, one’s strength can never be improved. No matter how high one is, but one does not know how to fight, what is the difference between that and a child holding a sharp weapon?"
Shen Luoyan was silent. What Ding Yi said made sense, but she was unwilling to take any risk.
Seeing this, Ding Yi felt a warm feeling in his heart, but he still said firmly: "Sister-in-law, don't worry, I will be fine!"
