Chapter 442: Conch Starfish

"I want to ask, is it you betting with me, or is Lao Zhou betting with me?" Gu Zheng looked at Jiang An. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

"Of course, Lao Zhou gambled with you, and his craftsmanship is as true as my father's inheritance. Jiang An said.

"Good. ”

Gu Zheng said lightly, got up and went to the pergola to take a look.

Lao Zhou's usual food seems to be solved by himself in the pergola, which not only has things for making cold shrimp, but also some common ingredients in daily life.

After seeing the things in the pergola, Gu Zheng said: "Just use the things in the pergola to make cold shrimp, as for who will be the referee, it just so happens that someone at the bottom of the mountain wants to go up the mountain, and we can't see who the person who goes up the mountain is so far away." After the people at the bottom of the mountain went up the mountain, let Lao Zhou give the cold shrimp made by the two of us to the first person on the mountain, and after he ate it, he asked him which cold shrimp was the best, and his answer was the standard for us to evaluate winning or losing. Of course, after the referee goes up the mountain, none of us can say anything suggestive, otherwise we will lose. ”

Where everyone was, they could just see the way up the mountain, and at this time, they could faintly see two people walking up the mountain, but the distance was still far away, and even Gu Zheng couldn't see who they were.

"What if they don't eat cold shrimp?" Cao Yi asked.

"Since the cold shrimp is a delicacy that you are proud of, how can they not eat it? If you really want to order the cold shrimp, you can also ask Lao Zhou to send them two servings, just say that there are innovative cold shrimp, let them feel it, and see which one is more delicious. "Gu Zhengdao.

After thinking about it, Jiang An opened his mouth and said, "Okay, the rules don't sound like there's any problem, what about the bets?"

"Whatever bet you make, I'll do it. Gu Zheng paused, and then said: "However, I don't accept a bet worth less than ten five-grade resources, and it's not enough for me to spend a lot of time!"

Originally, when his identity was not exposed, Gu Zheng felt that Jiang An's temper would make a big bet, but since his identity had been exposed, it was very likely that he would only make a small bet for convenience, so that even if he lost, at least he didn't have to worry too much about the loss of resources.

Sure enough, Gu Zheng's addition made the hatred in Jiang An's eyes even stronger, and he really wanted to make a small bet.

"Xiao Ann ......"

"Uncle Zhou doesn't need to say it, I know. ”

Jiang An interrupted Lao Zhou's reminder and took out a bottle of pill from his body: "There are four fifth-grade realm pills in here, which is enough to meet the minimum standard, right?"

"Yes. ”

Gu Zheng smiled, took Jiang An's pill bottle and checked it, and took out a small cloth bag from his arms. Now that the identity has been exposed, this mustard seed pocket won in the Kunlun faction is nothing to take out to meet people.

"The things put in here are also four five-grade realm pills, which can be regarded as my bet. ”

Gu Zheng took out a box from his mustard seed pocket.

Jiang An also checked Gu Zheng's elixir, and after making sure that it was true, he returned the box to Gu Zheng.

"What about your bet?" Gu Zheng looked at Xie Ying.

"I'm ready to bet a little bigger. ”

Xie Ying took out a red thing from his arms, this thing thought it was a starfish at first glance, but after a closer look, he found that it was a spar, because it was too vivid, it made people have an illusion at first sight.

"Are you crazy, Xie Ying!"

"Conch starfish!"

After seeing what Xie Ying took out, Cao Yi and Jiang An exclaimed at the same time.

Xie Ying ignored the two who exclaimed, and he said in an arrogant tone: "Master Gu may not know what the Tianluo Starfish is, please ask Elder Gao to tell him." ”

Gu Zheng looked at Elder Gao, and Elder Gao immediately gave an explanation.

The eleven branches of the Tianluo Sect enter the 'Tianluo Cave' every ten years to look for an opportunity, this opportunity does not mean that they want to go to the cave of the Tianluo Patriarch to feel anything, the actual purpose is to find the treasure house of the Tianluo Patriarch!

However, does the treasure house of the Tianluo Patriarch exist? This is just a guess on the part of Mu Chunfeng, after all, the Tianluo Patriarch had looted a lot of treasures back then, but he didn't leave a single one of them, so they felt that the Tianluo Patriarch should have left a treasure trove! And this treasure house must have a great relationship with the 'Tianluo Cave'.

As early as hundreds of years ago, the Tianluo Starfish was discovered by the people of the Yellow Tianluo Sect from an extremely secret place in the 'Tianluo Cave', and there was a prohibition inside that no one could explain, and no one knew what the real effect was. However, the people of the Yellow Tianluo Sect, every time they enter the 'Tianluo Cave', they will take the Tianluo Starfish with them, hoping to have some unexpected triggers.

This extremely special conch starfish, not only the people of the Yellow Conch Sect regard it as a treasure, but even the people of the other Conch Sect also want to get it, and its value cannot be estimated by common sense.

"Machine Spirit, can you tell what this conch starfish is?"

After listening to Elder Gao's explanation, Gu Zheng asked in his heart.

"The prohibition in the Tianluo Starfish is indeed a trigger ban, and it may really be related to the treasure house of the Tianluo Patriarch. However, the prohibition in the Conch Starfish is incomplete, it may be more than one!"

"What?

"This thing is your Conch Sect's treasure, even if I win, it's useless. Gu Zheng shook his head and said.

"Who's to say it's useless? you just have to value it, and we'll make a bet." If I win, you will give me the resources to be valued, and if I lose, the Conch Starfish will be yours for the time being, and our elders of the Yellow Conch Sect will naturally use the resources you have estimated to redeem it from you. ”

"Thank you, junior brother!"

"Senior Brother Xie, if you lose, you will definitely be punished by the elders when you go back!"

Seeing that Xie Ying didn't want to use the Tianluo Starfish to make things difficult for Gu Zheng, but that he really wanted to gamble, several disciples of the Huangtianluo Sect who were sitting at the same table with him suddenly became anxious.

"You don't have to worry, since I dare to bet, I will take care of everything myself. Xie Ying said impatiently.

"Okay, since you want to use it to gamble, and you want to bet a little bigger, how about I estimate thirty special resources for this conch starfish?"

Gu Zheng's voice landed, and the sound of gasping around him rang out.

Thirty pieces of special resources, it is not thirty pieces of five-grade resources! Even if the Huang Tianluo sect has a share of the medicine field, they still have the consumption of their disciples, and thirty pieces of special resources are definitely not a small amount! If it weren't for the fact that their sects are all overseas, and the water resources are relatively rich, if they change some sects in the mainland, thirty pieces of special resources can crush more than half! After all, five-grade resources are already rare, and ten five-grade resources may not be able to exchange for one special resource!

"You, you take out your thirty special resources first!" Xie Ying gasped.

"What's so difficult about this? When the special resources were in Kunlun, I won some. ”

Gu Zheng easily took out thirty special resources from his mustard seed pocket.

"What? Do you want to crush me to death with a conch starfish?" Gu Zheng laughed contemptuously.

"Bet on it, I'm afraid of you?" Xie Ying blushed, looked at him with Lao Zhou, and said in an almost pleading tone: "Uncle Zhou, it's all up to you this time!"

So far, Lao Zhou didn't say anything more, just nodded vigorously.

Gu Zheng didn't speak, and walked straight towards the pergola, as if he was about to start. However, he explained to the machine spirit in his heart: "Machine spirit, you pay attention to Xie Ying, I don't think things are so simple!"

"Why do you think so?" asked the machine spirit.

"Xie Ying is a person who gives me a very sinister feeling, which has no basis, maybe it's just because of his face. Secondly, can such a thing as a conch starfish really be used for gambling? In the case of knowing my identity, he still placed such a heavy bet on Lao Zhou? If Jiang An, the person who did this, I think it is easy to understand, but when it happened to Xie Ying, I always feel a little strange! After all, he is the one who wants to enter the 'Tianluo Cave', and the 'Tianluo Cave' is the most important thing in the hearts of the eleven branches, and Mu Chunfeng also said that the disciples who can enter the 'Tianluo Cave' are the elite of the elite in each sect!"

"Gu Zheng, you guessed right, Xie Ying is really weird!"

Almost as soon as Gu Zheng's words landed, the voice of the machine spirit also sounded.

"What did you find?" asked Gu Zheng.

Xie Ying smiled just now, sinister and proud. "Instrument Spirit Dao.

"Looks like it's really weird! Whatever the weirdness is, now that I've found it, I'm going to make some amends. ”

Gu Zheng's footsteps towards the pergola stopped, and he turned to look at everyone and said, "This bet is not a trivial matter, and I still have one more thing to add." ”

"You shouldn't be scared, right? It's all been decided, what else do you want to add?" Xie Ying said.

"Do you think you're going to start, but you have to add something! Say, what do you want to add?"

Compared with Xie Ying, Jiang An's supplement to Gu Zheng seemed very indifferent.

As for people who have nothing to do with the matter, if you don't want to make a demon oath, stand far away now, and don't talk during the whole process. Gu Zheng said solemnly.

"Master Gu, I think you're really scared? Isn't it just a gamble, and you even use the Demon Oath? Can't you afford to lose?" Xie Ying sneered.

"Yes, I think this demon oath is necessary, and I'm afraid that you will cheat!"

Jiang An seemed very happy and took the lead in agreeing to Gu Zheng's proposal.

"What about you?" Gu Zheng asked Xie Ying.

Xie Ying's already small eyes narrowed even more slender, and he secretly gritted his teeth, and said, "Yes, it's not that I can't afford to lose, and I haven't thought about cheating!"

Gu Zheng didn't want to lose, Xie Ying naturally didn't want to lose, if he didn't dare to swear at this time, he would undoubtedly admit that he had plans to cheat!

"My current cultivation is only in the late stage of the third layer, and who knows when this mysterious realm of the Heart Demon Realm will appear! Since I don't know when it will appear, who can say clearly what will happen in the future? There is wine today and drunk today, don't worry about drinking cold water tomorrow!" Xie Ying sneered in his heart.

"Okay, since there are no opinions, then I'll come first. ”

Gu Zheng's solemn gaze swept over everyone again, and then he spoke: "I Gu Zheng swear to the heart demon, and today I will compete with Lao Zhou to make cold shrimp, and there will be no cheating in the whole process!

To be honest, if it weren't for the prevention of unpredictable variables, Gu Zheng really didn't want to make a heart demon oath, because the heart demon itself is a mysterious thing, even if he didn't violate the oath he made, in his heliocentric demon realm, the heart demon might also use today's oath to make a fuss.

"I, Xie Ying, swear to the heart demon, today Gu Zheng and Lao Zhou compete to make cold shrimp, I will not cheat in the whole process!

Xie Ying swore the second one, followed by Jiang An and Lao Zhou, as for the other people who had nothing to do with things, some people swore that they stayed, and some people stood far away.

"Let's get started!"

Gu Zheng nodded to Lao Zhou, and the two walked into the pergola together.

What is used in the cold shrimp made by Lao Zhou, Gu Zheng already knew when he tasted it, and I have to say that he did it really well. If it is placed in the outside world, some people say that Lao Zhou's cold shrimp is the best in the world, and Gu Zheng will not question it! But if Lao Zhou wants to compare with him to make cold shrimp, then Gu Zheng can only say sorry.

"Master Gu, this will be the most attentive cold shrimp production in my life, you have to be careful!" Lao Zhou said solemnly.

"Get into your best shape and bring out your best creations, I'm looking forward to you being able to make even better cold shrimp. ”

Gu Zheng smiled slightly, stopped looking at Lao Zhou, and began to choose glutinous rice and rice.

Gu Zheng didn't plan to make the same cold shrimp as Lao Zhou, he had a way in his heart, and he knew how to make the cold shrimp more delicious.

The quality of the ingredients is clear at a glance, Gu Zheng's hand speed is very fast, and in a moment, he has picked out the unqualified rice grains in his heart.

Mix the picked glutinous rice and rice according to a certain proportion, Gu Zheng knows that the proportion he uses with Lao Zhou is different, and the difference in proportion will directly affect the taste of the cold shrimp.

The rice has to be soaked first, and the traditional soaking time is relatively long, but Lao Zhou also has a cultivation, although it is not high, it is also in the middle of the fourth layer, in the case of using internal strength, he and Gu Zheng did not take long to 'soak' the two kinds of rice to a suitable extent.

Although there are tools for making cold shrimp in the pergola, there is only one set, Lao Zhou went to grind rice milk first, while Gu Zheng divided some glutinous rice, boiled it into 'rice milk' with a pot, and put it aside for later use.

Lao Zhou's rice has been milled, Gu Zheng cleaned the stone mill, and then grinded the glutinous rice and rice in a moderate proportion into a pulp.

Add water to the pot and boil, Gu Zheng slowly poured the rice milk in, and controlled the water in the pot covered with the lid to completely homogenize the rice milk and water. In this process, Gu Zheng scooped out the trace substances that could affect the taste with a spoon and discarded them.

The boiled rice noodles are poured into clear lime water, and then boiled over a slight fire. However, in order not to affect Lao Zhou, Gu Zheng locked the fragrance in some steam, and then let this part of the steam swirl in the pot, but it just couldn't fly out.

"Why doesn't the rice cereal you cook smell good at all?"

There are two pots, and Lao Zhou, who is also cooking rice cereal, looked at Gu Zheng curiously.

"Gather the aroma with internal strength, for fear of affecting you, so I didn't force it out. "Gu Zheng told the truth.

"The aroma is invisible, can you use your internal strength to do this? If this is really the case, you force them out, I am not afraid that you will affect me!"

Lao Zhou also used internal strength in the process of making cold shrimp, and what Gu Zheng said made him feel incredible.

"Okay!"

Since Lao Zhou doesn't care, Gu Zheng doesn't matter, even if the water control is released, the rich rice fragrance suddenly wafts out of the pot, completely suppressing the aroma in Lao Zhou's pot!

Cool shrimp is the signature snack of Kirikaze Island, the glutinous rice and rice used to make cold shrimp are themselves rare ordinary level ingredients, such ingredients are boiled into rice cereal by Gu Zheng's hands, and the fragrance that bursts out, even Gu Zheng feels that this is already second only to the rice fragrance of fairy rice.

"It smells so good!"

Even if he didn't want to praise, Jiang An's heart still couldn't help but sigh.

"Awesome!"

Lao Zhou's face was tense, but he still gave Gu Zheng a thumbs up.

Gu Zheng just smiled, and then in Lao Zhou's wide eyes, he poured some powder into the pot.

"You,"

Lao Zhou really didn't know what to say, the powder that Gu Zheng poured into the pot just now was not a violation, after all, those powders were all ground from auxiliary materials.

Among the cold shrimp made by Lao Zhou, there are all kinds of crushed nuts, and the existence of these crushed nuts not only provides a different taste for the cold shrimp, but also provides the fragrance of oil.

Grinding the nuts into powder and pouring them into rice cereal, this method is not untried by Lao Zhou's master, but the final effect is not ideal.

Nut flour no longer has the unique taste of roasted food, and because it needs to be degreased to make flour, its fragrance has lost a lot. More importantly, the cold shrimp is white and fat to arouse people's appetite, and the nut powder mixed with the confusion will make the cold shrimp lose its original pure whiteness.

In the inexplicability of everyone, Gu Zheng pretended to stick to the pot with both hands, closed his eyes and frowned, as if he was cooking with internal strength. But in the pot that others can't see, the rice cereal is rotating rapidly, and the nut powder that Gu Zheng poured into it is evenly wrapped inside.

After a while, Gu Zheng lifted the pot from the fire, and his rice cereal was already boiled.

Cold boiled water had already been put into the basin on the side, and Gu Zheng slowly added the rice cereal to the colander, casting the immortal technique 'Nuwa Creating People', which he had obtained a long time ago but had hardly used.

"This ......"

"How is this possible!"

"What kind of means is this!"

The people around couldn't help but be shocked, and shouted one by one, even Lao Zhou was no exception.

Cool shrimp cold shrimp, just look big head and small tail, more or less with a little shrimp rudiment, if not afraid of affecting the appetite, named 'cool tadpole', but it will be more appropriate.

However, the cold shrimp made by Gu Zheng is very much like a real shrimp!

The white and chubby shrimp has a clear shrimp head, shrimp body and shrimp tail, if it weren't for Gu Zheng not wanting to be too scary, not to mention the small details such as beard and eyeballs, he could even make the cold shrimp swim! Moreover, the nut powder that was originally put into the pot by Gu Zheng is now no longer visible at all! But everyone has no doubt that the nut powder has been evenly wrapped, and the appearance is still a piece of pure white cold shrimp.

"You!"

After the shock, Jiang An and Xie Ying looked at Gu Zheng, both of them looked like they wanted to speak, but they couldn't say it.

"What's wrong with me? Are you going to call me cheating? It's all about the taste and the taste, I'm just making the shrimp more vivid. Gu Zheng said lightly.
