In the preliminaries of the Forbidden City National Cuisine Competition, in order to be able to select the best people from the tens of thousands of chefs who rushed to hear the news, Zhu Yuan, as the head of the palace cuisine, also took a lot of effort to prepare all the ingredients in front of the Taihe Palace in the morning.

As a preliminary round for the selection of players who will advance to the next round, there are three conditions that need to be met in order to pass this match.

The first point is to make one hundred and eight dishes for the whole Manchu and Han banquets. As a feast that brings together the best of the whole country, this one hundred and eight dishes includes almost all cooking techniques, and it is almost impossible for one person to complete it. Just wanting to know the recipe of this one hundred and eight dishes requires the chef to have enough experience and experience, and this threshold alone will exclude most of the contestants from the promotion.

The second point is the speed at which the food is completed. In this competition, only four promotions were selected, but now there are at least 50,000 people in the competition venue, which means that it is one out of ten thousand. As mentioned above, even if one person can cook this one hundred and eight dishes, it is difficult to do it alone in a short period of time, which gives the team room to operate.

The third point is the degree of completion of the finished meal. As the judge of the cuisine, Chef Long is considered to be the highest level of Chinese cuisine, and it is another difficult problem to pass their judgment, which will once again screen out a group of people.

In this competition, Le Yuan and Kai You undoubtedly made the two most dominant people, and behind both of them were dozens of Lin chef teams. If you want to become a Lin chef, then the minimum condition is to have a level comparable to that of an ordinary special chef.

At the beginning of the game, Le Yuan and Kai moved by the people on both sides. A team of ten people rushed towards the food stack. As chefs, they can pick out the best ingredients at the first time.

But Le Yuan said to Zhu Qi behind him: "You were born in Mongolia, so Mongolian cuisine will be entrusted to you." ”

"Understood!" Zhu Qi showed a sunny smile and raised the silver chopsticks in his hand and began to cook in full swing: dragon hanging stove pheasant, raw roasted roe deer meat, lotus leaf rolls, green onion segments, sweet noodle sauce Fuzi melon roasted tenderloin, 10,000 characters spicy belly shreds, Nianzi mushroom hair cabbage; Imperial bean yore, sesame roll, gold cake, jujube paste cake...... A piece of exquisite cuisine is displayed under his hands.

Later, Le Yuan handed over the courtier's banquet to Yan Xian, the longevity banquet was entrusted to Yakan, and the Qiansuo banquet was directly handed over to Mira and Shao An.

As for Le Yuan, he was in charge of the remaining Jiubai Banquet and Festival Banquet alone.

Although Le Yuan is responsible for two dishes by himself, he is far faster than others. Le Yuan took out the legendary kitchen utensils - the Demon Saint Bronze Greedy Wolf Pot and the Zhuan Dragon Pot.

After being in contact with kitchen utensils for so long, the use of them has already reached the point of perfection, relying on the strange ability of the Demon Saint Bronze to soak the dry goods at hundreds of times the speed of the original form, shark fin, abalone, bird's nest and so on. The highest-grade dry goods that were indispensable in the Manchu and Han banquets all bubbled up in an instant.

Coupled with another piece of kitchenware, no matter what kind of ingredients it is, as long as you put all the ingredients in it, no matter how old it is or how shredded, it can be done in an instant with Le Yuan's will.

Finally, there is the power of the dragon pot, as long as any ingredient is put into the dragon pot, it will be completely cooked after taking it out again.

Relying on the legendary kitchenware, although the Manchu and Han dishes made by Le Yuan cannot be said to have reached his strongest level, it is absolutely no problem to escape through the preliminaries.

The one hundred and eight Manchu and Han seats of Le Yuan's group were all completed in less than two hours.

Chef Long, the chief chef of the imperial dining room, is in charge of Zhu Yuan. With a group of dragon chefs, they began to taste the cuisine of Rakuyuan. Although each dish was only one bite, it could be seen from Chef Long's face that they were very satisfied with the dishes made by Le Yuan's group.

Wiping the stains on the corners of his mouth, Zhu Yuan raised his right hand and announced loudly: "Ju downstairs Le Yuan, all the one hundred and eight dishes are completed, and the preliminaries are passed!" ”

Le Yuan's group is overwhelming, although one hundred and eight dishes is indeed a lot of work, but it only makes a group of people gasp a little, and as for Le Yuan, there is not a trace of sweat.

And this time. Rakuyuan's opponent, Kaiyu, was also nearing completion, and there were already a hundred dishes on the long table, and it seemed that he would be the second person to complete the cooking.

After paying attention to these, Le Yuan couldn't help but look at Liu Yuexing. Compared to the original plot. The stoppers of his group were Zhu Qi and Mira two generals, and Le Yuan was drawn over, and even the most important legendary kitchen utensils were left, and in this case, their speed was almost half slower than the original.

However, Liu Pleiades is worthy of being favored by God, although he has lost a lot of help. But there is also a lot to get. Hunan Provincial Special Chef Wu Xiong saw that he had no hope of winning the crown, so he took the initiative to help Liu Yuexing, who had a relationship. Even Le Yuan's master, Fairy Pei, came from Sichuan. Give his son Liu Pleiades a helping hand. Zhao You, the sous chef of Nanxian Restaurant, the special chef, and the son of the chef of Shanghai Longzhen Restaurant, Sanjie......

The people Liu Pleiades met and helped along the way gathered around him. The luxury of the lineup can be said to be unique. Nearly 90 dishes have been completed in a short period of time, and there is still one step away from completing all of them.

At this time, a voice with a sharp tone mocked Liu Yuexing and the others: "Poof, hehe! It seems that my time has finally come. Little devil, you can't beat me! ”

Right next to Liu Pleiades' group, a group of people were completing one hundred and eight dishes at an astonishing speed. And the man who commanded those bald men was the shark fin demon who had been beaten to the ground by Liu Pleiades and his group.

I saw the shark fin demon pinching the orchid finger in his hand, grabbing a dry tobacco stick and saying to the strong man behind him: "Little ones, tell those filthy little devils who I am!" ”

A strong man who was cooking, his expression immediately became solemn, and he said reverently as if he had met a true god: "This gentleman is the true owner of the legendary kitchenware [Jade Dragon Pot], and he is the savior who came to the Chinese cuisine world to save the troubled times - 'Mo Le Rulai', Mr. Weng Mingming is also!" ”

The shark fin demon is dressed like a Buddha, but with his lewd temperament and the action of holding a dry tobacco stick in one hand, he can be as funny as he wants.

I saw the shark fin demon pointing to the twelve strong men with numbers engraved on the door of his head behind him and said, "See?" These people are the strongest Yaksha who have endured 30 years of torture and cultivation under my ground, the Twelve Divine Generals of Mole! ”

Now the speed of the shark fin demon is one or two dishes faster than Liu Pleiasia, and it is indeed Liu Pleiasia's biggest enemy.

At this time, the voice of judge Zhu Yuan once again intensified the intensity of the competition.

"Liangshan Bo Kaiyou, one hundred and eight dishes are completed, pass the preliminaries!"

"Datong Pavilion Belan, one hundred and eight dishes are completed, pass the preliminaries!"

Two people in a row completed this cooking work, and directly dropped the quota to the only one.

The shark fin demon dug his nostrils and mocked Liu Pleiades and his group: "It's just a few more helpers, how can they be compared to my Twelve Demon Gods, this time I want to defeat you, the big broom Liu Pleiades!" Puff hehehe! ”

Looking at the pig-headed shark fin demon looking disgusting at you, Le Yuan couldn't stand it anymore, and his right finger shrunk in the cuff was a little bit of the shark fin demon's body.

An invisible energy then hit the shark fin demon's crying hole, and suddenly the shark fin demon's tears and snot flowed out, and he couldn't open his eyes and said, "Woo, I, what's wrong with me?" Woo, why do you want to cry? ”

"Don't you think the expression that suits you right now? Shark Fin Devil? Le Yuan walked up to the twelve strong men behind him and slapped his hand on their arms casually.

"Bang dang ......" A series of falling sounds, I saw twelve strong men foaming at the mouth without exception, slumping to the ground, and their consciousness was completely unconscious.

"Although these guys you are looking for are good at cooking, they are just ordinary people's level, if you cook honestly, it is really possible to make a hundred and eight dishes, but with a bear like you...... command."

Le Yuan couldn't help shaking his head when he said this, when doing this kind of feast, the most taboo thing for the chef is to press himself to increase his speed regardless of his physical state, although the efficiency has increased in a short period of time, but the fatigue will also increase instantly.

When he walked past these people, he slightly stimulated their already tired bodies with his hands, and suddenly the fatigue came up, and his body collapsed and fell to the ground weakly, never wanting to get up again.

"This time it failed, but it was caused by your blind command, you can get out of the game with peace of mind!" With the twelve gods about to be wiped out, the Shark Fin Demon, who is completely a third-rate level, can't make a dish that satisfies the judges, and even though he has completed a hundred dishes, he can't avoid being out.

Zhu Yuan brought a kind of judge to the long table where Liu Pleiades' dishes were, and after tasting them one by one, the other dragon chefs couldn't help but say: "One hundred and eight dishes have been completed, and one hundred and eight dishes are impeccable in taste!" Lord Zhu Yuan! ”

"I see!" Zhu Yuan put down the chopsticks in his hand, raised his right hand and said, "Their cooking level is indeed speechless!" Qualified! Ju downstairs Liu Pleiades advanced to the finals! ”

After the four chefs stood out, the format of the final was changed to a knockout round, with Le Yuan in the first and second places against Kaiyou, and Belan in the third and fourth places against Liu Pleiades.

In addition, the venue for the finals was changed to the Great Wall, the largest structure in human history. (To be continued.) )
