Chapter 42: Endless Appetite (Revised Version)
It's so full! Xia Yu touched his stomach, ate an omelette, a big lobster, and a bowl of luxury instant noodles, and his stomach was full.
Even if you know it's all fake, this feeling of fullness is still very satisfying.
It's a magical meal.
However, he knew that this feeling of fullness was only a mental illusion, because once the food created by the Meal Cooking Technique was digested, it would turn into pure energy, which could provide people with calories, but it could not provide the nutrients needed every day, and if he ate the food made by the Meal Cooking Technique every day, he would definitely be malnourished after a long time.
Of course, if you eat one or two meals once in a while, you can not only save money, but also lose weight, which can be described as killing two birds with one stone.
After thinking about it, Xia Yu felt that it was better to prepare some real food.
He took a piece of beef from the freezer and thawed it in a bowl, and he was going to improve his meal tomorrow.
He then began to experiment with other foods, and soon had some good results.
First of all, fried chicken, he doesn't eat less of this thing on weekdays, because the price is relatively close to the people, when he is hungry, he usually uses fried chicken to satisfy his cravings, so the fried chicken that is conjured out is also quite realistic, and it is the same as instant noodles, and it also has an impression of adding a layer, and the fried chicken is charred on the outside and tender on the inside, golden in color, and the appearance is especially good-looking.
Similar products include burgers, whether it's KFC or McDonald's, and the food in the picture is often much more beautiful than in reality.
And the fried chicken and hamburger he conjured up were completely subconscious impressions, and the result was exactly the same as in the picture, the bread oil and butter were yellow, the burger's patties were big and thick, the sauce was rich, and even the lettuce inside was green, which was pleasing to look at, and it was not at all comparable to the real burger.
Another benchmark for appearance is roast chicken, the impression of this roast chicken mainly comes from the various martial arts movies I watched when I was a child, the protagonist in it fights a pheasant to roast it at every turn in the wild, and every time it is roasted, it is charred on the outside and tender on the inside, and the whole body is oily, which makes people greedy when they look at it.
Xia Yu watched TV more than once when he was a child, and he drooled directly, which will master the mystery of food making, and naturally he has to try it, but he didn't expect it to be perfectly restored, and there is even a certain beautification, which makes people salivate when he looks at it, but the taste is so-so, just the taste of ordinary roast chicken.
Most of the impressive food is very successful, but a lot of impressed food is very unsatisfactory, either the resolution is too low and pasted into an unknown object, or the painting style is too abstract to make people lose their appetite, and sometimes even some hunting style of fetish, it is scary to watch, let alone eat.
experimented with more than 20 kinds of food in one go, and finally Xia Yu reluctantly found that there were only a few kinds of food that really had enough appearance to sell for money and would not make people suspicious, instant noodles, fried chicken, hamburgers, roast chicken, potato chips, cola......
It seems that I really don't eat less junk food on weekdays.。。
When he wanted to try again, suddenly a strong feeling of exhaustion came up, his brain was dizzy, he couldn't open his eyes, he couldn't say it in his heart, it must be his mental strength was overdrawn, he had only slept on the volcanic island for two or three hours before, and most of the time he was fighting and fighting, and as soon as he relaxed at this time, he couldn't resist the feeling of exhaustion.
Xia Yu fell asleep on the sofa and fell asleep as soon as his eyes were closed.
In a drowsy state, he had a dream in which he had returned to the volcanic island and had become the panther.
He was hunting, and the prey ran hard in front of him, and he chased after it fiercely, and soon caught up with the prey, and threw the prey to the ground, and tore the flesh from the animal, and swallowed the delicious flesh into his belly.
However, the more Xia Yu ate, the more strange he felt, no matter how he ate, the hunger in his stomach could never be satisfied, the food gradually turned into nothing in his mouth, and suddenly it seemed that he could never fill his stomach, and suddenly the prey that he pounced on turned around, it turned out to be a person, that person looked surprisingly familiar, Xia Yu recalled carefully, and suddenly reacted, wasn't that his own face?
Xia Yu's brain buzzed, and he suddenly woke up from his sleep.
In front of him was a dark living room, under him was a soft sofa, his brain was still dizzy, in a trance, he didn't know whether it was a dream or reality, everything was so illusory, only the strong hunger in his stomach was so real, he couldn't suppress the desire to eat.
Xia Yu struggled to get up from the sofa and opened the refrigerator, opened a bag of leftover bread and took a bite, but the dry slices of bread could not relieve the hunger in his stomach at all, so he grabbed another bag of milk and took a bite and drank it.
Still not enough! He rummaged frantically, and suddenly, the piece of beef that was being thawed came into his eyes, the red beef in the glass bowl was soaked in half-dissolved blood water, it looked so tempting, Xia Yu felt trembling all over his body, and a strong desire made him grab the meat and bite it down.
The taste of raw beef was so delicious, Xia Yu greedily gnawed and chewed, the cold beef mixed with blood and water swallowed into his stomach, making him feel a strange sense of satisfaction, his consciousness began to blur again, and gradually fell into calm and darkness.
By the time he opened his eyes again and woke up, it was already the afternoon of the next day.
Xia Yu looked at the ceiling of the living room, the wide open refrigerator door, and the empty glass bowl inside, and it took a while to realize what had happened last night.
The brain buzzed suddenly, and the scalp exploded.
What's wrong with me, Xia Yu thought with some trepidation, and felt around in disbelief for a while, did he eat a whole piece of raw beef?
Will it have diarrhea, or get parasites, food poisoning or something. And most importantly, why would you do it? He recalled the strange hunger pang he had last night, and the more he thought about it, the more scared he felt.
Suddenly, a phone rang, startling Xia Yu.
When I picked it up, it was a WeChat message from Wildland, and there were more than a dozen of them.
Ranlan: "Boss, when will the group start?" ”
Ranlan: "Why aren't you online yet?" ”
Rant: "Is the boss here?" Can't you fight tonight? ”
Ranlan: "Boss, if you don't go online again, I'll lead someone to start a group by myself?" ”
Ranlan: "Woo woo woo boss, why don't you ignore me, don't you love me anymore......"
Starting a tour? Xia Yu only then reacted, yesterday's copy hasn't been played yet.
He was distraught, but instinctively sat down in front of the computer and logged into the game.
As soon as it was launched, Wildland immediately sent a message.
Ranlan: "Damn, boss, you're finally here, why didn't you go online yesterday, and you didn't reply to your messages?" “
Sunset: "I'm ready to give up this game, come up and tell you." ”
Ranlan: "I'll go, boss, why did you suddenly give up?" Black Wing is about to be opened, and the market of gold coins will definitely rise by then, and Black Wing's equipment must be valuable, why don't you suddenly think about it, let's do it for a few more months. ”
Sunset: "No, I'm ready to give up, I'm too tired." ”
Ranlan: "Boss, have you discovered a new game?" If yes, don't forget my brother. ”
Xia Yu couldn't help laughing, this old brother really knows himself, although Wang Li didn't say that he couldn't reveal the game to the outside world, he still kept silent rationally.
Sunset remnant sun: "No.,It's just that I don't plan to continue.,The game was supposed to be fun.,It's really not interesting to play like this now.,I think it's better to find something serious to do.,Do some trading.,By the way,I'll give it to you if you want those part-time job accounts.,I'll keep the main number as a souvenir.。 ”
Ranlan: "Okay, then I wish you success, what are you going to do with your boss?" I'll give you a cheer when the time comes. ”
Sunset: "I guess I'll go to the restaurant industry." ”
Ranlan: "I'll go, it seems that the boss has saved a lot of money in the past few years, are you going to open a restaurant?" I'll definitely try it then. ”
Sunset: "Okay, when my business is done, I'll send you an invitation." ”
Exiting the game, Xia Yu stared at the computer in a daze.
was interrupted by the raging waves, and the panic in his heart was mostly eliminated.
He touched his stomach, fortunately, there was no feeling of nausea and wanting to vomit, it was a little incredible to think about it, he was half-asleep last night, and he was so satisfied with eating, but now he only feels disgusting when he sees raw meat.
I thought about it for a long time and didn't come up with a reason, the only thing that came to mind was that because the game was too real and I was too involved in playing Black Panther, I didn't get out of the role for a while.
In addition, the experimental cooking technique later led to excessive mental exertion, and he did not eat real food at night, and his stomach was so hungry that his mind fell into confusion.
A few days of recovery should be fine.
Xia Yu rubbed his head, the feeling of drowsiness had disappeared, but this sudden lethargy still gave him a warning, it seems that the limit of his ability to make meals is about thirty times, for the sake of insurance, it is best not to make more than twenty servings of food every day, so as to maintain mental stability.
And in the future, it is best to maintain a normal diet, the food created by this meal-making technique can be eaten as a snack occasionally, but not as a meal.
Although last night's events were a bit infiltrating, Xia Yu still decided to continue his plan.
One thing he really needs money now, whatever he can win from that game in the future, but now he has to find a way to live.
Second, this game is too exciting, and it's best to find something to do and distract yourself, so as not to make yourself insane.
Thinking in his heart, Xia Yu turned on the computer and prepared for the stall wholeheartedly.
I ordered a food truck first, because he didn't need to cook food on the spot, so things like stoves could be omitted, and he didn't plan to go too far, only selling near the community, so he didn't need a power system, and finally chose the cheapest one, only five hundred yuan.
After ordering a snack car, Xia Yu contacted a copy shop to print a set of advertising paintings, and bought a lot of disposable environmentally friendly lunch boxes, packaging paper bags, convenient chopsticks and other things, and by the next day, his catering equipment had been fully purchased.
After glancing at the clean car, Xia Yu pasted a few colorful advertising posters, and then he began to prepare today's dishes.
Today is a trial opening, mainly to experiment with the taste of the guests, so he has changed a little bit of each food.
Five Big Mac beef burgers, five bowls of luxury braised beef noodles, five golden fried chicken family buckets, and five Jianghu-style roast chickens.
Stuffing all the food into the locker inside the cart, Xia Yu pushed the cart out of the community.
