Every word and deed of this young man named Luo exudes a warm and sunny charm, making it difficult for people to refuse his proposal.
Sun Yan couldn't help but pout, brother, I didn't feel happy at all when I met someone as handsome as you.
Under the eyes of everyone, and with Chen Qinglian's constant threats and inducements, Sun Yan had no choice but to nod in agreement. At the same time, he reluctantly responded: "My name is Luo Yan."
"Okay, tonight is really a grand event for our Bell and Drum Tower." Tao Wei laughed loudly and ordered in a loud voice: "It's almost time, get ready immediately!"
"yes!"
"clear!"
Next to it, a group of waiters got busy and began to clear the tables and chairs on the top floor. After a while, the space on the west side of the top floor by the window became vacant. Then, an antique round table was brought in and placed at the window.
"Well, that window."
Sun Yan had noticed before that the window directly west of the top floor was sealed and had a big lock on it. This made him feel quite strange, because the window directly west was the best view of the inland sea of Chenfeng City.
It's a good location, but I don't know why it's sealed and locked.
Under the leadership of Tao Wei, Sun Yan and Luo Chen sat at both ends of the round table. A set of tableware was placed in front of them - a wooden stick, a spoon and a small bowl.
The wooden stick was about half a foot long and was transparent in texture. I don't know what kind of wood it was made of. The spoon and the small bowl were made of porcelain, light blue in color, as thin as paper, and played crisply and pleasantly, making them valuable.
Standing in front of the round table, Tao Wei, the current boss of the Bell and Drum Tower, suppressed his smile and said with a serious face: "The first boss of this Bell and Drum Tower was Mr. Chen Xian of the Chen family. Although the outside world has mixed praise and criticism for Mr. Chen Xian, but,
The Bell and Drum Towers can be as prosperous as they are today
The situation was all due to Mr. Chen Xian's good management at the beginning. During the Third Snow River War, Mr. Chen Xian unfortunately died. Although the three rare delicacies he created during his lifetime left behind cooking methods, so far, they are rarely seen.
Few people know the art of tasting.”
Having said this, Tao Wei paused and said excitedly: "Tonight, two young talents, Mr. Luo and Mr. Luo, cut open the ice to get the lotus, and successfully challenged our restaurant's first rare delicacy - [Curling Fire Lotus]
.Now, they will challenge the second treasure of our restaurant - Jinfeng Yulu Soup. I sincerely hope that you two can taste this rare delicacy and fulfill my wish for nearly a hundred years."
At this time, guests from the entire Bell and Drum Tower also rushed to the top floor, blocking the entire top floor with water. Everyone craned their necks, not wanting to miss every detail that followed.
For these foodies, this is a rare event in their lives. If they miss it, it will be a regret in life.
"Golden Wind and Jade Dew Soup?"
Only then did Sun Yan know the name of the second rare delicacy. He had some expectations in his heart. The [Cold Kettle Fire Lotus] was so strange, so what about the second treasure of the Bell and Drum Tower?
Opposite him, Luo Chen always had a smile on his face, with a golden halo in his eyes, and a faint dazzling light all over his body, like a prince who was meeting his courtiers.
Standing upright, Tao Wei raised his hand and signaled: "Open the west window!"
The waiters waiting on both sides quickly walked to the window, took out the key, opened the big lock, and opened the dusty west window.
Creak..., the window opened, and the moonlight immediately poured in and fell on the table, like a layer of silver gauze, draped on the shoulders of Sun Yan and Luo Chen.
Looking out the window, you can have a panoramic view of the inland seas to the west of the city. These inland seas shine in the moonlight, like pieces of crystal clear emerald.
The west window on the top floor is indeed the best place to enjoy the inland sea view.
Inside the window, two outstanding young men were sitting across the table, one with brilliant blond hair and the other with jet-black hair. They seemed to be a pair of friends getting together, climbing high and looking into the distance, admiring the beautiful scenery at night.
Looking at the beautiful scenery outside the window, Chen Qinglian opened her beautiful eyes and murmured: "Wow, it's beautiful."
All around, the people present were also shocked by the scenery and let out bursts of admiration.
At this time, Tao Wei smiled and said: "Two gentlemen, the second treasure of our Bell and Drum Tower store - the Golden Wind and Jade Dew Soup, is sunk in these inland seas. The first step to taste this rare delicacy is to eat it.
Find out the Golden Wind and Jade Dew Soup. Please!”
"What?"
"Well?"
Sun Yan and Luo Chen looked shocked at the same time. If they were asked to search for a dish in the inland sea, wouldn't it be the same as finding a needle in a haystack? Even if it takes 100 years, they may not be able to find it.
It was the first time for the diners present to experience such a grand event. When Tao Wei said this, everyone looked at each other in disbelief.
Looking up at Tao Wei, Sun Yan forced out a smile and asked: "Boss Tao, what do you mean, this [Golden Wind and Jade Dew Soup] is in these inland seas?"
"good."
Tao Wei seemed to anticipate that Sun Yan would ask this question, and nodded and smiled: "It's just not a [Golden Wind and Jade Dew Soup]. Our special chefs in the Bell and Drum Tower will make a [Golden Wind and Jade Dew Soup] every 10 years, sinking these
In the inland sea, if you count, there are a total of 18 [Golden Wind and Jade Dew Soup] in the past 200 years."
"Eighteen courses of [Golden Wind and Jade Dew Soup]..."
Sun Yan looked blank. The diameter of these inland sea groups in Chenfeng City is about several kilometers, and the diameter of the large one is more than tens of kilometers. Let alone 18 dishes, even 18,000 dishes are scattered into these inland seas. Just rely on manpower.
It is almost impossible to salvage it.
At this time, Tao Wei said again: "The inland sea in Chenfeng City has a leaky topography, and they communicate with each other. Some [Golden Wind and Jade Dew Soup] may also enter the leaky rock formations."
, Therefore, after our Bell and Drum Towers sank into these rare delicacies, we didn’t even know their current locations.”
Sun Yan and Luo Chen were silent. They knew that since Tao Wei said this, there must be a way to determine the location.
The guests present also fell silent and listened to Tao Wei's words, not wanting to miss a word.
Seeing that everyone's attention was focused, Tao Wei cleared his throat, pointed out the window, and said: "Confirm the location of [Golden Wind and Jade Dew Soup]. At first, Mr. Chen Xian only left one sentence - the moonlight can cover the group just right at night.
When the sea is clear, you can find the location of [Golden Wind and Jade Dew Soup].”
Looking at the antique clock on the wall, Tao Wei said with a smile: "After so many years of observation, when the moon reaches its zenith, it happens to be able to illuminate the entire inland sea. There are still 30 minutes left before this time. Please two
Please note, sir, this time period is only 10 minutes."
"When the moon cages the sea, you only have 10 minutes to find traces of [Golden Wind and Jade Dew Soup]?" Sun Yan was deeply curious.
Luo Chen's eyes moved slightly, and he smiled and said: "10 minutes of searching time? It is really fleeting. There are many rumors about Mr. Chen Xian from the outside world, but in my opinion, Mr. Chen Xian is a
Characters with noble aspirations and noble interests. The golden wind and jade dew meet each other, which is taken from the ancient poems of the Chinese people on the earth. The artistic conception is far-reaching. I think Mr. Chenxian must have had some regrets during his lifetime, so he lamented that the youth of the world has passed by. "
These words were insightful and thought-provoking. They silenced everyone and aroused resonance.
Next to him, Chen Qinglian looked at Luo Chen's perfect face, a strange light flashed in his beautiful eyes. Only a few direct members of the Chen family knew about what happened before Chen Xian. Luo Chen was only a young man, but he could
The words hit the mark, making her feel incredible.
Looking at Luo Chen who was smiling calmly, Sun Yan secretly sighed that among the friends he knew, only the mysterious Beilon could compare to such an outstanding person.
At this time, Luo Chen's eyes came over and he smiled and said: "Mr. Luo, this challenge is very interesting. How about we add some bonuses to make this challenge more interesting?"
"Uh, lottery?" Sun Yan was stunned and didn't know why.
Luo Chen nodded slightly and said: "Mr. Luo's knife skills just cut through the ice to extract the lotus, I was amazed. At least two-thirds of the changes, I still can't understand, I am very curious. How about,
Taking advantage of the opportunity to challenge [Golden Wind and Jade Dew Soup], if I am lucky enough to win, Mr. Luo will tell me the secret of the knife skills, how about it?"
"Oh, what if you lose?" Sun Yan asked calmly.
Luo Chen smiled and said nothing, took something out of his pocket and put it on the table, "This is a very important item to me. It is as precious to me as life. If I lose, I will give it to Mr. Luo."
Although his tone was understated, as if he was talking about an insignificant thing, Luo Chen had a unique charm about him. When he said that this thing was as precious as life, others couldn't help but believe it.
The object on the table looks like a hand sign, which is deep dark red in color, about the size of a palm, square, and about 2 centimeters thick. Its texture is neither gold, nor silver, nor wood, but I don’t know what kind of material it is made of.
The cross-section on one side is smooth and neat, and it seems to have been cut in half with a sharp weapon. Perhaps because it is too old, the pattern on it is blurred.
There were many well-informed people present, but no one recognized what it was, and they started talking about it for a while.
Grandma, you are a bear. If you say it is a precious item, does that mean it must be true? Maybe this thing is a waste?
Sun Yan secretly cursed in his heart, then thought about it, he was able to take the lotus with one sword just now, but he actually relied on the true meaning of martial arts that he had mastered, and it had nothing to do with the so-called sword skills. Now his identity is Chen Qinglian's bodyguard, so it is not appropriate to create extraneous matters.
Any change that occurs may affect the execution of the task.
Thinking of this, Sun Yan nodded and said: "Okay! Since it is something dear to you, brother Luo, it is equal to the value of my knife skills."
Chen Qinglian almost laughed out loud when he heard this. Luo Chen was obviously older than Sun Yan, but the latter insisted on calling him "brother". He was really unwilling to suffer.
Luo Chen smiled and nodded, and immediately started chatting with Sun Yan all over the world, chatting about the interesting things he encountered during the journey to Gu Fengxing. It was like chatting with a good friend, without any restraint, and his breadth of knowledge was far different from that of others.
A young man talked eloquently and showed off his charm, which made many women present have their eyes lit up and they wished they could eat Luo Chen alive.
In comparison, Sun Yan pales in comparison. His footprints have never left Luoshan City since he was a child, so how could he be so knowledgeable? In addition, his current identity cannot be revealed, and he dare not say too much about himself.
I can only chime in a few words occasionally and be an honest listener.
Thanks zero Guao??for joining the alliance!
Thank you!
An additional chapter will be added in the afternoon.
