"Alright! Lu Chen, I'm telling you, if you make any mistakes, I'll skin you alive! "Ding Hu had no way out and could only threaten Lu Chen.
Lu Chen smiled faintly, killing intent flashing in his eyes.
Ding Hu and the rest were distracted by other matters. Lu Chen walked to the youth, "What's your name? How many years have you been with Old Huang?"
"My, my name is Yan Zhu. I've been with my master for three years."
Lu Chen nodded. This young man saw that his master was in trouble and still knew how to speak up for him. At least he had some conscience.
"Alright, be my assistant."
"But, you don't seem to be as old as me … Lu Chen, thank you for helping me out just now, but not everyone can be a chef. At your age, I'm afraid you can't even hold a spoon steadily!"
"Ding Hu will definitely use this matter to deal with you!"
"How about this, I'll go all out. I won't tell anyone about this. Let's go to the kitchen. I'll be the cook and you help me!" Yan Zhu gritted his teeth as if he had made a major decision.
Lu Chen looked at this young man and smiled, "Forget it. I don't want to be beaten to death by Ding Hu."
"Let's go. I'll be the cook. You're in charge of serving the dishes to the guests!" Lu Chen walked directly to the kitchen that Master Huang was in charge of.
The chefs had already brought out the dishes one by one, but there was still no movement from the kitchen.
Yan Zhu was anxious but he didn't dare to go in and disturb Lu Chen.
An odd-job worker ran to Yan Zhu in a panic, "Your Black Python River Flipping is not ready yet? The guests are already rushing it! "
Yan Zhu didn't know how to answer. He only heard a voice from the kitchen, "Tell them to wait for another twenty minutes!"
"Twenty minutes? This is one of the main dishes. It should be served now. How can we wait for another twenty minutes! "That person said excitedly but suddenly paused," En? That's not right. It's not Old Huang … "
The person inside said, "It doesn't matter if I'm Old Huang or not. Tell them to wait for another twenty minutes. Tell them that if they want to taste the delicacies, they have to be patient!"
"This …" The man hesitated for a while and looked at Yan Zhu with a troubled expression.
Yan Zhu could only say, "Just tell them that. Sigh, they're dead anyway … Just push the blame to us."
That person thought for a moment. This matter had nothing to do with him. He was just a messenger, so he left in a hurry.
There were at least a hundred tables of people in the dining hall.
At the main table, a beautiful woman in her thirties was asking the white-bearded old man beside her. "Senior White Apricot, I've long heard that your West Prefecture City has an extremely famous dish called 'Black Python Overturning the River'. I've long wanted to try it."
Someone next to him said, "Yeah, the Black Mountain Rock Python was originally highly toxic, but after special processing, it suddenly became a delicacy. It's really magical."
"Dean White Apricot, why do you think this dish is called Black Python Overturning the River?"
White Apricot was the Dean of the Western Saint Spiritual Academy. He lightly smiled, stroked his beard, and said complacently, "Everyone, speaking of this Black Python Overturning the River, it's indeed the best in our West Prefecture City!"
"Not only is the snake meat fresh and delicious, it's also chewy. After mixing with the sauce, it's even more memorable. It rolls around in the mouth, like a river overturning the sea. Hence, it's called Black Python Overturning the River."
"This time, we've specially prepared this dish for everyone. I've already rushed them, so it should be served soon."
At this moment, the errand boy in charge of serving the dishes came empty-handed.
"Little Five, what are you doing?" Dean White Apricot looked at the errand boy strangely.
"Dean, that … cough cough …" Little Five wanted to say something, but hesitated.
Dean White Apricot was unhappy as he placed his chopsticks down, "What's going on? Why isn't the dish being served?"
Little Five felt an unprecedented pressure. It was fine if it was on a normal day, but today was a big day for the Western Saint Spiritual Academy. The Dean had already instructed them not to have any problems …
With the Dean glaring at him, Little Five immediately spoke the truth.
"The chef in charge of the Black Python Overturning the River said that if you want to taste the delicacy, you have to wait for another twenty minutes!"
Dean White Apricot instantly slapped the table, "What are you talking about? How can our Western Saint Spiritual Academy let our guests wait for so long! It's just a dish. Which chef is so arrogant to let the Dean and City Lord of this table wait for so long?! "
Little Five was so frightened that his entire body trembled, "Dean, I, I …"
At this moment, the girl beside Dean White Apricot hurriedly mediated, "Senior White Apricot, please calm down. I believe that the kitchen is also tight on manpower. Isn't it just a short wait? The feast has just started, so we don't have to be in a hurry."
"Right, right, right. Dean White Apricot, why should you get angry over such a small matter?"
With so many people persuading her, Dean White Apricot didn't continue to get angry. Instead, he fiercely said, "When the feast is over, no matter who's in charge of the kitchen, I'll definitely fire him!"
Little Five retreated and sighed. Looks like Yan Zhu and that chef are going to be out of luck.
After this small episode, everyone continued to eat. During the feast, everyone was discussing the results of the Western Saint Spiritual Academy's test.
No one was tactful enough to mention the matter of the Black Python Overturning the River.
After a short while, everyone had tasted quite a few top-notch delicacies. Their stomachs were getting more and more full.
At this moment, a commotion suddenly came from the student's table far away.
"Wow, it smells so good! What dish is this? "
"I'm already full. Why is it that after smelling this fragrance, I suddenly have an appetite?"
"Hey, hey, what dish is this? The fragrance is so good that it makes people drool! Is it for our table? "
Little Five said embarrassedly, "Sorry, this is for the main table."
Wherever Little Five passed by, there would be people standing up and licking with all their might!
"To be able to smell such a fragrance with the lid on, is this dish only available at the main table? We, we're all teachers here, so why don't we have this dish? "
Little Five was getting a headache from these people, so he quickly quickened his footsteps.
After arriving at the main table with great difficulty, Little Five placed the tray in the middle of the table, "Everyone, please enjoy the Black Dragon and Phoenix."
As he spoke, Little Five opened the lid.
"Today, I saw that Seven Star Gold Vein disciple from your courtyard …" Someone was talking about the test when he suddenly stopped.
In fact, no one continued to listen to him. Everyone's eyes were fixed on the dish in the middle of the table.
Especially when the lid of the tray was opened, a strong fragrance immediately spread out ….
"So … so fragrant … it simply goes straight into the spleen and lungs …"
"What, what dish is this …" Someone swallowed his saliva and stared at the dish, "Just the fragrance alone is enough to make one's appetite soar!"
"This dish is really like a black dragon and a red phoenix fighting, the artistic conception is profound … Oh right, Little Five, you said that this dish is called Black Dragon and Phoenix?"
Little Five hurriedly replied, "Yes, Sir. This dish is also cooked with Black Mountain Rock Python. The chef said that this is the upgraded version of Black Python River …"
"Upgraded version?" The West Province City Lord frowned, "I've eaten Black Python River many times, but I've never heard of this upgraded version."
Although everyone was swallowing their saliva, due to their status, no one moved their chopsticks for a long time.
Bai Xing suddenly reacted, "Come, come, come, let's have a taste and see how this Black Dragon and Phoenix tastes. Principal Qing Ya, come, try it first. "
The woman beside Bai Xing picked up a piece of black python meat and put it into her mouth.
Everyone looked at Qing Ya.
When the black python meat entered her mouth, Qing Ya's eyes suddenly widened. Then, she closed her eyes again and took deep breaths again and again. Her expression changed constantly, as if she was intoxicated.
Everyone was surprised in their hearts.
Everyone present was at least the principal level and had eaten countless delicacies. Qing Ya had always paid attention to her appearance. It was the first time she lost her composure like today!
This Black Dragon and Phoenix could make Principal Qing Ya so intoxicated that she forgot her image?!
