"Leave it to me!"
If Shu Yu wanted to win, then Gu Zheng would help her win. He didn't care about other aspects, but since this was a competition of culinary skills and food, as long as he was here, the prize today would definitely belong to Shu Yu.
Gu Zheng's voice wasn't loud, and his tone wasn't forceful, but when he spoke, he exuded a frightening confidence. Shu Yu looked at Gu Zheng and narrowed her eyes slightly. A hint of surprise flashed across her eyes. On the other hand, the little girl looked at Gu Zheng in a daze. She felt that Gu Zheng had changed a little, but she couldn't pinpoint what was different about him.
The entire resort had been booked, and only the few of them were present today.
Most of these people were acquaintances, so there wasn't anything special at the gathering. That Young Master Xu came over to greet everyone and encourage them. Shu Yu came over as well. She looked at Gu Zheng strangely, but didn't ask anything.
Shu Yu brought all the ingredients for barbecue, and Gu Zheng wanted to make barbecue as well.
There were two aspects to barbecue. The first was the ingredients, and the second was the heat. Shu Yu used wild boar meat as the ingredient. Wild boar meat was difficult to barbecue, but it tasted better than other kinds of meat. When he realized it was wild boar meat, Gu Zheng was a little puzzled. Shu Yu was so confident that she would use wild boar meat. If this kind of meat wasn't barbecued well, the taste would be terrible, and it might be difficult to swallow.
Gu Zheng had barbecued wild boar meat before, but his first attempt was a failure. He wasn't even willing to eat it himself.
Wild boar meat wasn't naturally wild, but manmade wild boar meat. Fortunately, it wasn't Wei Yang's feed, so it was considered a low-grade ingredient. The ingredients that Shu Yu used to make the rouge wild boar meat weren't low-grade, and they were all above low-grade. It could be seen that she had put in a lot of effort in preparing these ingredients, and she really wanted to win.
There were more than fifty people present, and they quickly dispersed after the gathering. They gathered for lunch and soaked in the hot spring in the afternoon. Many people began to prepare the ingredients they brought, and those who were competitive began to think about winning the prize this time.
During this time, many people came over to greet Shu Yu. Shu Yu even mentioned Gu Zheng a few times, and each time, Gu Zheng would raise his head and politely respond.
Seeing that Gu Zheng's reaction wasn't that strong, Shu Yu decided not to introduce him anymore.
Gu Zheng's attention was all on Shu Yu's ingredients. Other than the wild boar meat, Shu Yu's potatoes and eggplants were very ordinary. The eggplants were garbage ingredients, and the potatoes were even worse. They were actually poisonous ingredients. After careful analysis, Gu Zheng discovered that this potato was actually a genetically modified potato. No wonder it was rated as poisonous.
Gu Zheng would definitely not use poisonous ingredients. In a while, he would either throw these potatoes away or put them back. Either way, he would not cook them.
Other than potatoes, everything else was fine. However, only wild boar meat was considered inferior. Fortunately, Shu Yu had a lot of wild boar meat. She could make a lot of it and let everyone eat it. However, the wild boar meat was too simple. Moreover, Shu Yu's pickled meat was a little salty. If one ate too much, not only would they be sick of it, but their mouth would also feel uncomfortable.
It was a pity that Shu Yu didn't tell Gu Zheng the purpose of today's visit. If these ingredients were prepared by Gu Zheng, he could win with his eyes closed.
Shu Yu didn't tell Gu Zheng because of her own pride. She could ask Gu Zheng for help, but she wouldn't completely rely on Gu Zheng. In the end, Shu Yu was still a strong-willed person.
When Gu Zheng was learning about the ingredients on his side, he was also observing the others.
Today, half of the ingredients brought by these people were barbecue. Barbecue was indeed the first choice for a picnic, but if there were too many, it wouldn't stand out. A small number of people brought raw ingredients to cook, and some people brought raw seafood.
The person who brought the live sheep was actually roasting it on the spot. The live sheep was killed and roasted, which attracted a lot of people. At this moment, he was proudly handling it.
The live sheep had already been killed and placed on the grill, but his technique was very unfamiliar, and the grill was also very ordinary. Gu Zheng didn't pay attention after a few glances. This roasted whole sheep was bound to fail, and there was no competition at all.
On the other hand, there were a few cooks who were quite good at cooking, especially one who came along like him. He hadn't started cooking yet, but he was very skilled in preparing beforehand. At first glance, one could tell that he was a professional. He probably came prepared and wanted to take advantage of today's opportunity to win once. This was also his biggest competitor.
However, he didn't know what relationship this person had with the people who came with him. Shu Yu just explained to Gu Zheng that one could come to such an occasion by themselves or bring a companion, but this companion couldn't be just anyone. It had to be someone one was familiar with, or someone close to one's side.
Simply put, it had to be either a very good friend or a lover. This was also the reason why the young man just now was hostile to Gu Zheng. He was pursuing Shu Yu, and seeing that Shu Yu actually brought a young man here, how could he be indifferent?
Until now, that man still looked at Gu Zheng from time to time, and his eyes were full of murderous intent.
After paying attention for a while, Gu Zheng got a general idea. It was only ten o 'clock. Although the event had already started, most of the people were preparing. Gu Zheng suddenly got up and walked out.
"Shu Yu, you guys go ahead. I'm going to look for something!"
Gu Zheng said to Shu Yu. At this time, Shu Yu and the little girl were cleaning up the grill. There were a lot of grills today, and some people deliberately arranged these grills in a line. They would stand together to barbecue later, which would make it more lively.
Gu Zheng went directly inside, found an empty room, locked the door, and entered the Chaos Space.
Wild boar meat was too salty and simple. It was no problem to rely on pure wild boar meat to get a good result, but Gu Zheng didn't have much confidence to get first place. He needed to make another kind of food to neutralize it, and this kind of food had better be a soup.
He could let Shu Yu borrow the tools to make the soup on the spot, but he didn't have the raw materials, so he needed to enter the Chaos Space to get it.
After a while, Gu Zheng came out of the room with a small bag in his hand, a very small bag.
"What's this?"
Seeing Gu Zheng come out with something, the little girl came up to him and asked. Shu Yu also looked at him curiously.
"Rice. Our wild boar meat will be a little hard and salty after being barbecued. Later, we will use this to make a rice soup to neutralize it!"
Gu Zheng said his idea. Rice soup was indeed the best way to neutralize the wild boar meat soup.
"What? Make a rice soup?"
The little girl exclaimed and went forward to snatch the small bag in Gu Zheng's hand. She opened the bag, and there was indeed rice inside. It was very small rice grains, and there was only a handful. It could fit in a palm.
"How can you make a rice soup with this little rice? This is too casual. Sister Shu Yu, can we really win? Why do I feel that he is so unreliable?"
With just a glance, the little girl threw the bag back to Gu Zheng and ran to Shu Yu to complain. She also looked at Gu Zheng suspiciously. Gu Zheng indeed didn't have much rice in his hand, only a small handful. If one counted it, one could even count the grains.
However, this rice was not ordinary rice, but immortal rice grown in the Chaos Space. Gu Zheng wanted to make a rice soup that neutralized the taste of the barbecued meat. This little rice was not much, but it was enough.
