When Qing Hong arrived, Old Madam Liu and Physician Xiahou were taking care of the unconscious Old Master.
Physician Xiahou said to the old madam, "Old Madam, Yuanwai has really been blinded by lard these days. He actually let a chef treat him. How is this the way of a son? "
The old madam's face darkened. She was very unhappy to see Young Master Liu and Qing Hong come in.
"Grandson greets grandmother."
"Forget it. I've already heard about the matter from Sir Xiahou. What's wrong with you father and son, letting a chef treat you? Even medicinal pills don't work. Do you think a few dishes can cure him? "
The three generations of the Liu family often ate at the restaurant, so they could be considered old friends with Qinghong. So the eldest Liu young master argued, "Since Doctor Xiahou has no way to save him, then what's the harm in trying a folk prescription? This concerns grandfather's life and death. We can't let go of any chance of survival! "
Qing Hong also nodded, "Since Old Madam thinks he can't be saved, then treat it as a farewell gift from the restaurant to Old Master. Drink this cup of Black Tortoise Wine and avoid calamity. Even if you go to the gates of hell in the future, you won't be caught by the Envoys. "
Indeed, Black Tortoise had the ability to expel evil. The Black Tortoise Blood Wine he made could avoid the bindings of the Envoys.
Qing Hong held a jade cup in his hand. Inside, there was a jade pearl and dark red wine. It swayed a few times, as if there were some golden fragments.
Seeing Qing Hong's impetuous words, the old madam frowned. But in the end, she didn't say anything. She moved aside and quietly watched as Qing Hong slowly fed the jade cup of blood wine to Old Master Liu.
This wine was quite effective. Old Master Liu soon woke up.
"He's awake?" The old madam was overjoyed and quickly said to Physician Xiahou, "Physician, quickly take his pulse!"
Sir Xiahou was also stunned. He silently went forward and said with a frown, "His pulse is indeed more obvious than before. But how can a little wine have this kind of effect? You didn't use some tiger wolf medicine, did you? "
"I've learned a bit of medicine, I'm not that stupid!" Qing Hong couldn't be bothered with him and asked the maid beside him to serve the other two dishes.
One of them was a bowl of soup called "Azure Dragon Crossing the Seas". One was a plate of pastries called "Red Snake Golden Cake".
Now that the Old Master had just woken up, it was not convenient for him to eat things that were too hard or indigestible. Thus, Qing Hong deliberately chose two dishes from the Azure Dragon Banquet's menu.
Azure Dragon Crossing the Sea. The soup was jade-green, and white veins appeared on it, looking like waves. There seemed to be a shadow at the bottom, representing the Azure Dragon.
The Old Mistress personally scooped the soup for her husband and poked it with a spoon. The so-called 'Azure Dragon' was actually a crooked snake bone. As for the "waves", they were slices of snake meat.
To put it bluntly, "Azure Dragon Crossing the Sea" was a snake stew. He took the snake bones and boiled them. Then, he lightly blanched the snake meat and put it into the soup.
The Old Madame fed the Old Master mouthful by mouthful, and Qing Hong would let him drink the Black Tortoise blood wine from time to time.
The so-called Black Tortoise wine was made by soaking a flood dragon pearl in the blood of a spirit turtle. It contained the spiritual power of both the flood dragon and the black tortoise, which was why it was called "Black Tortoise wine". Qing Hong deliberately carved the wine cup out of jade to hold the Black Tortoise wine, using an artifact to harmonize its medicinal properties.
The Old Master's appetite was immediately stimulated when the snake stew entered his mouth, and he drank two large bowls in a row.
Finally, when most of the soup was gone, Qing Hong let the Old Master eat the "Red Snake Golden Cake".
This pastry was golden in color, and there was a red snake pattern moving slowly on its back, as if it was alive.
The Old Master tasted it and said curiously, "This thing looks like it's fried, but it's not greasy at all. Instead, I can smell a fragrance. How was it made? "
"I have my ways." Qing Hong smiled without saying anything, watching the Old Master eat bite by bite.
When he bit into the golden cake, a red juice flowed out. This juice was a mixture of snake blood mixed with various medicinal herbs to create a snake glue blood paste. It was also a great tonic.
After the Old Master finished eating the pastry, drinking the soup, and drinking the wine, Qing Hong said to the people around him, "Today's lunch is enough. Don't let him eat at night. I'll come back tomorrow at noon. "
"What about tonight and tomorrow morning?"
"He doesn't need to eat, just drink some water. The medicinal effects of my medicinal cuisine are enough to keep him alive. "With that, Qing Hong left with the empty Black Tortoise Jade Cup.
The Old Master Liu was completely fine for the rest of the afternoon. At night, the family was worried that he would be hungry and carefully took care of him. However, after drinking a cup of blood wine and two dishes, the Old Master was completely fine.
At noon the next day, Qing Hong brought the Black Tortoise Jade Cup and two dishes.
The Old Master could already get out of bed. He laughed heartily, "Teacher, what have you prepared for me today?"
"Yesterday was the Azure Dragon Crossing the Sea and the Red Snake Golden Cake. Today is the White Tiger Coiling Mountain and the Vermilion Marrow of Jade Bamboo. However, you should drink first. "The wine was the same as the day before. It was the Black Tortoise blood wine that had just been prepared.
The Old Master slowly drank it and then looked at the two dishes.
The so-called White Tiger Coiling Mountain was a meat dish made from tiger meat. In the center was a large bone that had been sliced into thin slices and roasted with salt and pepper. Then, the slices were stacked on a plate like a small mountain.
The Vermilion Marrow of Jade Bamboo was made from the bone marrow of a tiger and the bone marrow of a snake. Then, it was stuffed with fresh bamboo shoots and cooked in a sauce. The tender bamboo shoots that were like white jade had a bit of vermilion in them.
One plate was fragrant and crisp, while the other was tender and fragrant. Today's dishes were very small, so the Old Master quickly finished them and drank the Black Tortoise wine.
Qing Hong picked up the Black Tortoise Jade Cup, which only had one pearl left, and left. "Come tomorrow at the same time."
Two days passed, and the Old Master's complexion became better and better. Everyone in the Liu Residence was overjoyed and spread the news, adding a layer of mystery to the Heavenly Treasure Restaurant.
On the third day, Qing Hong brought over a cup of Black Tortoise wine and two dishes. The situation of the past two days had made the Old Mistress wholeheartedly convinced. Not only did she personally welcome him at the door, she even took the initiative to chat with him and help carry the food boxes.
"There are two dishes today. One is to go with the wine, and the other is the main course. Old Master, eat this Vermilion Bird Rising Sun dish with the wine. "
The Vermilion Bird Rising Sun dish had a Vermilion Bird spreading its wings and flying high in the sky. Every feather on its body had a grain of "cinnabar" as its feather eye.
"Old Master, just eat this cinnabar." This cinnabar was extracted from the egg by Li Jingxun using a profound secret technique. It was most suitable for recovering vitality and nourishing Yin and Yang.
However, it was difficult to fill one's stomach. It was only used with the Black Tortoise wine to dissolve Yang energy and replenish one's life essence.
Therefore, Qing Hong prepared another dish, White Jade Egg Custard. This was made from carefully selected eggs and chopped snake hair. It was the most bland dish.
On the fourth day, it was Black Tortoise wine paired with Black Tortoise New Year's Greeting and Longevity Extension dishes.
At first, Physician Xiahou did not believe it, but as the days passed and he saw Old Master Liu's health getting better, he had to admit that Qing Hong's methods were amazing.
Looking at these two dishes, he asked, "Teacher, what's so special about these two dishes today?"
"Black Tortoise New Year's Greeting is made from boiling snake blood and turtle blood into a gelatinous substance, which is then made into the shape of a turtle's back. Then, it is filled with all kinds of ingredients and four pieces of fried snake meat to act as the four legs, which is why it is called Black Tortoise. As for Longevity Extension, it is made by tearing the snake meat into strips of equal size and then shaping them into the shape of a chrysanthemum. Today's two dishes are not particular. The main point is to nourish Qi and blood. Tomorrow, I will prepare the last dish, Twin Dragons Seizing the Pearl. "
