In response to Gu Zheng's question, Lian Yuxin said, "A few people told me, but I told them that I wouldn't be taking any business today and asked them to come another day. In this way, they might come to the Extremely Fragrant Hut for a meal if they come again. "
Gu Zheng smiled and didn't say anything, but he felt that sometimes Lian Yuxin was really sensible. Just like the task of collecting pure power of faith last time, if she could participate and it wasn't against the rules, the temple would have been built long ago.
"Hey!"
Gu Zheng, who was drinking wine with his eyes closed, suddenly opened his eyes. He had nothing to do before, so he used his Spiritual Force to patrol the Foggy Wind Island. After all, when Lone Wind Wolf was transcending the tribulation, the island-guarding immortal array was closed for a period of time.
It was just a routine patrol, but who would have thought that Gu Zheng would really find an unfamiliar woman. The woman was standing next to the immortal fields of Misty Wind Island. She was looking at the immortal fields curiously. Moreover, she had already found out when Gu Zheng's Spiritual Force was still far away from her, which was enough to show that this woman's cultivation was extraordinary.
"What's wrong, Sect Master?"
Lian Yuxin and Jia Si asked one after another.
"There's a cultivator standing on the edge of our immortal field."
As Gu Zheng spoke, he flew out of the window of the Extremely Fragrant Hut.
Jia Si and Lian Yuxin looked at each other and also flew out of the window.
The cultivator standing on the edge of the immortal field was a woman in her forties. When Gu Zheng flew over, she didn't panic but just watched quietly.
"This woman's cultivation is at the Late-stage of Void Return."
The Artifact Spirit, who had recovered, detected her cultivation.
"Did she cultivate any excessive demonic techniques?" Gu Zheng asked.
"This woman doesn't cultivate any demonic techniques, and she doesn't have a disgusting aura," the Artifact Spirit added.
While speaking, Gu Zheng landed on the edge of the immortal field. He looked at the woman with a calm expression and said, "I'm the owner of this island."
Gu Zheng wasn't angry. After all, he had been in the island-guarding immortal array for a period of time. Although this woman saw the immortal field, she didn't do anything.
"Emei Sect Master Gu Zheng?" the woman asked.
"That's right," Gu Zheng replied.
"You're so rude. Don't you know this is an island with people? Since you're here, why don't you go and see the Island Master immediately? "
Lian Yuxin frowned slightly. Although this woman's face didn't look cold, it gave people a very cold feeling. Maybe she cultivated some powerful ice type immortal technique. More importantly, although this woman was not young, she looked very beautiful. It seemed to be natural for beautiful women to be hostile to beautiful women.
"Little sister, don't be so sarcastic with your words. I do plan on meeting the Island Master, but isn't the Island Master already here?" the woman said with a smile.
Of course, Lian Yuxin would not let herself be taken advantage of. Just as she was about to say something, Gu Zheng extended his hand to stop her. "Something happened just now, so the island's Guarding Immortal Formation was temporarily closed. Now that the Guarding Immortal Formation has been reactivated, if you want to leave the island, I can send you out."
"Since we're already here, we won't leave for the time being. Let's try Sect Master Gu's cooking skills," the woman said.
"If you want to try my cooking skills, that's fine. Please come to the Extreme Fragrance Villa!" Gu Zheng said.
The woman followed Gu Zheng to the Extreme Fragrance Villa. After looking through the menu, she ordered two dishes and a soup.
"Customer, which way do you choose? Do you want to provide the ingredients or do you want to provide the ingredients yourself? "Lian Yuxin asked.
Facing unfamiliar customers, Lian Yuxin was the one in charge of asking them what they wanted to eat. She was a part-time appraisal master, so it was more appropriate for her to do so. After all, the customers had to pay the bill first before they ate. After ordering, they had to pay for the ingredients.
"I choose the ingredients provided by your Extreme Fragrance Villa!"
The woman's voice paused, and then she took out some ingredients. "These ingredients are equivalent to 120% of the total value of the ingredients.
"I'm sorry, customer. The ingredients you gave me are not even 120% of the original ingredients. At best, they can only be considered 110% of the original ingredients. So, if you still want these dishes, you'll have to raise the price by another 10%."
Lian Yuxin had a smile on her face. She was thinking the same thing in her heart. Back at the immortal field, Gu Zheng had not allowed her to speak much. This made it seem like she was at a disadvantage when arguing with this woman. This was something she could not tolerate! Now, the woman's resources were not enough. She felt that she had won another round.
The woman frowned and said, "Little sister, are you deliberately making things difficult for me?"
"Don't call me little sister. We don't know who's younger!"
Lian Yuxin sneered, and then said, "We're doing business here. Why would I make things difficult for you? Besides, I'm a Second Grade Equipment Refining Grandmaster, and I'm an expert in the appraisal of ingredients. The ingredients you gave me are really good. If we were in the Untainted Land, they would be enough to exchange for a delicious meal. However, this is not the Untainted Land. If you use the prices in the Untainted Land to measure the prices on Earth, it's inevitable that there will be some errors. "
"It turns out that you're a Second Grade Equipment Refining Grandmaster. No wonder you're so sarcastic!"
The woman sneered, and then said, "All right! If you say it's 10% less, then it's 10% less. Anyway, I don't care about the ingredients. "
The woman took out some more ingredients. Lian Yuxin smiled and took them. Then she went to the kitchen to order the dishes to Gu Zheng.
After hearing what Lian Yuxin said, Gu Zheng did not blame her for being rude to the guests. After all, this was the Foggy Wind Island. She had been wrong to come uninvited. Moreover, Lian Yuxin did not deliberately make things difficult for her. The prices in the Untainted Land were indeed different from those on Earth.
Gu Zheng played with a high-quality ingredient in his hand, and said with a smile, "It seems that this is a rich person!"
The high-quality ingredient in Gu Zheng's hand was one of the ingredients that the woman paid to the House of Extreme Fragrance as a reward.
"Yes! Although the dishes she ordered are not food cultivation dishes, they are very expensive among the dishes on the menu. "Lian Yuxin said.
The woman ordered two dishes and a soup. The two dishes were one meat dish and one vegetable dish. They were 'Flood Dragon Goes to Sea' and 'Extreme Delicacies', and the soup was' Sour Plum White Fungus Soup '.
Each of the two dishes and one soup had mid-grade ingredients. Therefore, in Gu Zheng's menu, they were considered to be very expensive. After all, he needed good grade ingredients. Selling mid-grade ingredients to the public was already the limit.
Gu Zheng took out a lot of ingredients from the Primitive Space. He gave some to Lian Yuxin, and after processing the rest, he made the 'Sour Plum White Fungus Soup'.
In fact, when Gu Zheng opened the Immortal Kitchen this time, he did not dare to use his full strength. This was because of the drawback of 'weaving' in Shu Mountain. If he used his full strength, he could make the two dishes and one soup that the woman ordered today have the effect of increasing energy cultivation.
"I used 'weaving' to earn resources. Now, I don't dare to use my full strength." Gu Zheng smiled at the tool spirit.
"Although you don't dare to use your full strength, you did make a profit because of 'weaving'."
The tool spirit rolled its eyes at Gu Zheng, as if saying that one could not have their cake and eat it too.
"Hehe."
Gu Zheng smiled and didn't say anything else. He had indeed earned quite a lot from weaving. For example, the food he made for Master Xin Jing today. It was because of his weaving that he was able to earn so much.
There were many ingredients needed to make the 'Sour Plum White Fungus Soup'. A total of eight ingredients were: immortal rice, immortal wine brew, immortal vine papaya, ant candy, topaz wolfberry, chicken heart jujube, beauty plum, and ice crystal white fungus.
Among the eight ingredients, the immortal vine papaya, topaz wolfberry, beauty plum, ice crystal white fungus, and ant candy were all medium-grade ingredients. As for the rest, they were all ordinary ingredients.
The topaz wolfberry and chicken heart jujube were steamed, the ice crystal white fungus was soaked and blanched, and the immortal rice was boiled into milk.
After the ingredients were processed, Gu Zheng put the ant candy into the cold pot, and then used a small fire to slowly boil the ant candy into syrup with the help of the Gold Manipulation Art, and removed the ingredients that were not good for this delicacy.
If it was a food cultivation, Gu Zheng would put more effort into the processing of each ingredient, and this step could be regarded as laying the foundation for the whole food cultivation. However, he could not overdo the medicinal effect of the food. Gu Zheng did not pursue perfection so much. The ingredients were almost processed, as long as the taste was passable.
After the ant candy was boiled, Gu Zheng put the rice milk and immortal wine brew in the pot for a while. Then, he put the ice crystal white fungus, beauty plum, topaz wolfberry, and other ingredients in the pot one by one, and slowly boiled them.
"Master, the ingredients are all processed," Lian Yuxin said.
"Okay, I'll make the 'Extreme Delicacies' now," Gu Zheng said.
The ingredients used to make the 'Extreme Delicacies' were relatively fewer compared to the 'Sour Plum and White Fungus Soup' just now. However, compared with a normal home-cooked dish, the ingredients used were still quite a lot.
Purple Invisible Sky, Extreme Snowfield Flower, Breeze Cabbage, Jade Bamboo Fungus, Purple Core Lotus Petal, and Red Jade Cashew. Among the six ingredients, Jade Bamboo Fungus, Purple Core Lotus Petal, and Red Jade Cashew were middle-grade ingredients, while Purple Invisible Sky, Extreme Snowfield Flower, and Breeze Cabbage were ordinary ingredients.
Extreme Snowfield Flower and Breeze Cabbage were boiled.
Purple Invisible Sky and Jade Bamboo Fungus were boiled.
Purple Core Lotus Petal and Red Jade Cashew were boiled.
After putting oil in the hot pot, the blanched Purple Invisible Sky and Jade Bamboo Fungus were fried together.
"It smells so good!"
After the two ingredients were fried three times in the pot, Lian Yuxin could not help but sniff deeply.
"How does it smell so good?" Gu Zheng asked with a smile.
"It's like walking in the forest after the rain. There's a kind of indescribable elegant fragrance." Lian Yuxin said.
As the aroma continued to soar, Gu Zheng placed the boiled Extreme Snowfield Flower and Clear Breeze Cabbage into the wok. After stir-frying them a few more times, he poured in the Purple Core Lotus Petal and Vermilion Jade Cashew Nuts into the wok.
A thick white mist suddenly floated out of the pot. The soup made from Purple Core Lotus Petal and Red Jade Cashew had a very strong freshening effect, making people drool.
"What's the change in the fragrance?" Gu Zheng asked.
"It's become more attractive and more fragrant!"
Lian Yuxin swallowed her saliva. Although she had just eaten not long ago, the food made by Gu Zheng had this kind of magic that made people want to eat more.
"If the previous fragrance is compared to the smell of the forest after the rain, then the current fragrance is the smell of the land after the rain! Although it's a kind of fragrance, the current fragrance is more refreshing and intoxicating. "Lian Yuxin said.
"Send it to the guest!"
The Extreme Snowfield Delicacy was ready. Gu Zheng put it on the plate and then closed the lid. After activating it with the Wood Control Art, he put the plate in Lian Yuxin's hand.
When this kind of delicacy appeared on the guest's table, the Extreme Snowfield Delicacy would appear when the guest opened the lid on the plate.
After Lian Yuxin left, Gu Zheng set out to make the last dish, Flood Dragon Goes to Sea.
Flood Dragon Goes to Sea was a meat dish. It used a lot of ingredients. There were a total of eight kinds: Extreme Snowfield Delicacy, Ice Water Lobster, Immortal Beef, Ocean Flower, Immortal Egg, Immortal Duck, Ginseng, and Green Jade Immortal Radish.
Among the seven ingredients, Immortal Beef, Ocean Flower, Immortal Egg, Immortal Duck, and Ginseng were of medium grade. Extreme Snowfield Delicacy, Ice Water Lobster, Immortal Vegetable, and Immortal Chicken were of common grade.
Immortal Duck, Ginseng, and Green Jade Immortal Radish were stewed into a soup.
Ocean Flower and Extreme Snowfield Delicacy were chopped and marinated with a little salt. After the Wood Control Art enhanced their flavor, they were simply washed with water and set aside.
The Immortal Beef and Ice Water Lobster were chopped, and the Immortal Egg was added.
After the oil in the wok was heated to 40%, Gu Zheng poured the beaten meat fillings into the wok. At the same time, he used the Immortal Technique, Nuwa Creates Man, to shape the meat fragrance.
A burnt smell rose from the wok. The originally unformed meat fragrance quickly turned into a flood dragon in the wok.
After the Fire Control Art was activated, the fire became bigger, and the oil in the wok started to boil quickly. The fragrance of the deep-fried flood dragon also became stronger because of this.
The color of the flood dragon turned golden. Lian Yuxin swallowed her saliva and said, "Sect Master, I really want to try this dish. What kind of crispy and tender taste will this deep-fried flood dragon taste like?"
"Crispy and tender on the outside is not its ultimate taste. After stewing it with the stock, its true taste will be revealed!" Gu Zheng said with a smile.
"I really want to try it!"
Lian Yuxin swallowed her saliva again. Although she had just eaten not long ago, she couldn't get enough of the delicious food cooked by Gu Zheng. Otherwise, she wouldn't have fought with Jia Si for the last Ocean Emperor Fish during the meal.
"Sure, I'll let you try it later."
As Gu Zheng spoke, he took out the deep-fried flood dragon from the wok.
"What?"
Lian Yuxin's eyes widened, and her expression was incredulous. She didn't see Gu Zheng making a second flood dragon!
"Sect Master, don't tell me you're going to let me eat the duck that you used to make the soup later? Although the duck is fat, after it's used to make the soup, the delicious taste is in the stock. The duck meat is very tasteless! "Lian Yuxin said.
"I didn't ask you to eat the duck. I asked you to eat the flood dragon!"
When Gu Zheng answered Lian Yuxin, he had already scooped out the stock and put it in another wok. Then, he added the Ocean Flower and Extreme Perfume Algae that he had prepared before, and added the deep-fried flood dragon, stewing it on a small fire.
"Ah? Sect Master asked me to eat the flood dragon. Then what will you eat? "
Lian Yuxin was quite suspicious. She felt that it was impossible for Gu Zheng to let her eat the flood dragon.
"Haha!"
Seeing that Lian Yuxin, a foodie, was almost amused, Gu Zheng laughed and said, "It's my fault that I didn't make it clear. I didn't ask you to eat the flood dragon, but a part of the flood dragon."
As soon as Gu Zheng finished speaking, Lian Yuxin's eyes lit up. "I was wondering why there was something wrong. The flood dragon doesn't have horns. The dragon you made has horns!"
"However, the dragon is not big. How much meat can there be in a pair of dragon horns?" Lian Yuxin said with a sad face.
"Do you want to eat it or not? If not, I'll eat it! "
While speaking, Gu Zheng had put the two small dragon horns on the plate.
"Eat it. Although the grasshopper is small, it's still meat!"
Lian Yuxin hurriedly took the plate.
The dragon horns were really not big. One of them was only half the length of a little finger and as thin as a pencil. But when Lian Yuxin put it into her mouth, the original unhappiness on her face disappeared.
"It's so delicious!"
After eating the first dragon horn, Lian Yuxin hurriedly ate the second one.
"It's soft on the outside and tender on the inside. It's so delicious!"
Lian Yuxin looked at Gu Zheng with a pitiful face. "Sect Leader, can I have a taste of the soup?"
"No, there's no extra soup."
Gu Zheng shook his head. He put the stewed flood dragon and the soup into the bowl, then closed the lid. Then, Gu Zheng put the Sour Plum and White Fungus Soup that he had been cooking into another bowl.
"Okay, send it to that woman!"
Gu Zheng ordered Lian Yuxin and left the kitchen. He went to the hall and leisurely tasted the Misty Wind Tea that the Yang family's sister had brewed for him.
After a while, the woman who was having dinner came out of the private room.
"Sect Leader Gu, your cooking skills are really excellent! Even compared to those Immortal Chefs in the Primitive Desolate Land, you're not inferior! "
The woman smiled and sat beside Gu Zheng.
The moment the woman sat down, the Yang family's sister immediately brewed a cup of Misty Wind Tea for her.
"Where in the Primitive Desolate Land are you from?" Gu Zheng asked.
"Let me introduce myself. My name is Yue Hua, and I'm from the North Continent of the Primitive Desolate Land," the woman said with a smile.
Gu Zheng nodded. "Fairy Yue, you seem to have something to tell me?"
"That's right. I want to ask Sect Leader Gu if you can sell me some of the immortal food produced in your immortal field?" Yue Hua asked.
"You know that's an immortal field?"
Gu Zheng frowned slightly. It seemed that Yue Hua was very knowledgeable. At least, even Yuxin didn't know what an immortal field was. The Artifact Spirit had also said that although the Primitive Desolate Land was rich, it wasn't filled with immortal food!
There might be more immortal food, but there were very few immortal fields. This was because the array stones needed to set up the Immortal Field Array were extremely rare.
"I was fortunate enough to see an immortal field in the number one sect of the North Continent."
Yue Hua paused for a moment, then continued, "However, the immortal field I saw wasn't even as big as Sect Leader Gu's, but it was already regarded as a supreme treasure by that sect. Logically speaking, the array stones needed to set up the Immortal Field Array aren't treasures that can be produced in a low-level plane like Earth. I really don't know how Sect Leader Gu obtained these treasures. "
Yue Hua's words made Gu Zheng's heart tremble. He knew that the array stones needed to set up the Immortal Field Array were very precious, but he didn't expect them to be so precious.
