Volume 2: The Demonic World Chapter 403: Dragon Feast
Lin Qianxing's fierce behavior really shocked Huo Cheng.
He turned into a flash of light and suddenly appeared not far in front of Lin Qianxing. Then, as Lin Qianxing looked puzzled, he politely said, "I am Huo Cheng from the Great Yue Kingdom. May I know your name?"
"Huo Cheng?" Lin Qianxing heard the voice and instantly thought of the other party's identity, so he invited him, "It's you. I heard that you have been looking for this dragon for a long time. You came at the right time. My name is Lin Kong. I just killed this dragon. Its meat is extremely strong and must be a perfect ingredient. I am also a rare chef in the world. You are in for a treat."
As he spoke, Lin Qianxing swung the kitchen knife in his hand twice and directly cut off dozens of pounds of dragon meat from near the dragon's spine. Then he stretched out his hand and grabbed in the air, and two long metal sticks appeared in his palm.
Lin Qianxing used a kitchen knife to cut the dragon meat and threaded it onto a long stick. He then marinated it with the seasoning created out of thin air by the Dao Fruit of Creation. He said to Huo Cheng, "You don't know, after I heard about this dragon, I rushed here overnight. Fortunately, the trip was worthwhile. This dragon is even better than I imagined, and it's very fresh. It's much better than the strange beasts I killed in the mountains before..."
When Huo Cheng heard Lin Qianxing's words and watched Lin Qianxing's familiar movements, he felt extremely complicated.
This evil dragon killed countless people. He waited for it for several times but failed to kill it. Unexpectedly, it was finally hacked to death by a cook who went down into the river with a kitchen knife.
The world is so big that there are indeed all kinds of strange things.
As his thoughts raced, Lin Qianxing had already started a fire with charcoal he had gotten from somewhere, and began to roast the dragon meat.
Lin Qianxing's movements were very skillful, and the charcoal used for making the fire was made of high-quality spiritual wood with a very high temperature. After a short while, the dragon meat was roasted by Lin Qianxing.
He handed a string to Huo Cheng and said, "It's fresh now, eat it while it's hot."
Huo Cheng held the skewer of meat weighing more than 20 kilograms, his face filled with confusion.
Because he felt that just by smelling the fragrance, he gained some benefits.
"Since Fellow Daoist Lin has invited me so kindly, I will not refuse." Huo Cheng said.
Immediately, he took a bite.
The meat was softened by the flames. He took a bite and tore it into his mouth easily. His mouth was full of fragrance and a little oil seeped out of it... No, it was not oil, but rich, gentle and pure energy. After chewing it a few times and swallowing it, Huo Cheng felt a comfortable feeling from his body to his soul. He directly gained great benefits, which could at least support him for several years of practice.
However, it doesn’t end here.
Huo Cheng actually found a story in the dragon meat.
His consciousness seemed to have descended into Lin Qianxing's body, and he personally experienced the feat of hearing about an evil dragon causing trouble, then running thousands of miles, diving into the water, and slaying the dragon with a kitchen knife in his hand.
At the last moment when the evil dragon soared into the sky, he seemed to have personally chopped out that extremely brave and murderous blow.
"Great knife skills!! Great cooking skills!!!" Huo Cheng exclaimed.
Lin Qianxing smiled and accepted the compliment.
Dragon meat is certainly an extraordinary ingredient, but not everyone can cook it well.
Facing this fourth-level dragon beast, an ordinary cook might not even be able to split its scales.
In Xuanyuantian, only Lin Qianxing can make such barbecue.
After Huo Cheng devoured more than 20 kilograms of dragon meat, his face turned a little rosy.
That is caused by the body being overfilled with energy.
He was afraid that it would take him dozens of days to digest the benefits of this meal.
Lin Qianxing has made optimal use of ingredients, allowing consumers to obtain the benefits of his food in a more efficient way.
Plus, the dragon spine meat is a top-grade treasure, so Huo Cheng behaved like this.
"Your act of slaying the dragon has benefited the entire people of Dai Yue. When I return this time, I will certainly petition the emperor to ask for a reward for you." Huo Cheng said.
"I'm just looking for some ingredients, I don't need them." Lin Qianxing said politely.
Hearing Lin Qianxing's words, Huo Cheng seemed a little speechless, but did not ask too many questions.
Extraordinary people do extraordinary things. It is normal for a strange person like Lin Qianxing to do some strange things.
After saying goodbye to Lin Qianxing , Huo Cheng turned into a beam of light and left.
Lin Qianxing then used the Dao Fruit of [Creation] to create hundreds of puppet beasts to carry the entire dragon corpse for him and return to the No. 1 Building in the World.
As for why he doesn’t use space props for storage?
It’s not that Lin Qianxing doesn’t have it, but there’s no need.
He wanted to make the story behind this Li dragon more famous.
When the huge dragon corpse that was more than a hundred feet long was transported back to the city by Lin Qianxing, the whole city was shocked.
The news spread quickly and countless people came to watch.
However, the subsequent news was even more shocking.
That is, Lin Qianxing plans to make a dragon banquet with this dragon in seven days and give it to everyone in the city to eat.
To use Lin Qianxing's original words: "In the past, this dragon ate people, and today we can eat it too!"
For a time, countless people in Dai Viet who knew about this were shocked, and a large number of people flocked into the city, just to get a sip of dragon soup and a piece of dragon meat seven days later.
Three days later, Lin Qianxing's name had spread all over the country, and the city where the No. 1 Building in the World was located was overcrowded. The first thing all the visitors did was to look at the dragon corpse lying in front of the No. 1 Building in the World, their eyes filled with shock.
The story of this dragon has been told in the streets and alleys, and many [storytellers] have adapted it into their own story, turning it into a legend.
On the fourth day, a fragrance wafted from the dragon's corpse. Just smelling a little bit of it was enough to make people drool.
Logically speaking, this dragon is dead and its body will only decay over time, but this dragon not only did not decay, but instead had a faint fragrance.
Everyone thought that this dragon was extraordinary, but only Lin Qianxing knew that it was the flavor of the story.
No matter how delicious the food is, it has its limits.
But the legends contained in the food itself can increase in value infinitely and become more mellow as time goes by.
The food consumed during festivals may not be special in itself, but when it is a festival and you eat the food and think of the story, you will inexplicably feel moved, which makes the food in your mouth have a unique flavor.
On the fifth day, Huo Cheng arrived and brought the king's reward and title to Lin Qianxing.
Lin Qianxing was given the honorific title of "Dragon-Slaying Divine Chef", and the plaque of the "Number One Restaurant in the World" was replaced with one written by the monarch himself.
"Brother Lin, do you really want to make it into a dish and serve it to everyone in the city?" Huo Cheng asked in surprise.
"Of course, once I say this, it's no longer a joke." Lin Qianxing said in a strong voice.
"What I mean is, can I have a sip of the soup too?" Huo Cheng said embarrassedly.
"Hahaha, everyone who comes is a guest. If Brother Huo wants a sip of soup, of course we have it. And not only soup, but also meat. I will definitely let you eat to your heart's content." Lin Qianxing said.
On the sixth day, even the area outside the city was already filled with people, and the aroma from the dragon's corpse was so strong that it could not be concealed.
On the seventh day, Lin Qianxing put on a specially made white chef's uniform and held a broad-backed kitchen knife in his hand. The golden flames under dozens of large pots with internal space were already burning.
Immediately, Lin Qianxing flew onto the dragon corpse and started cooking in front of all the viewers.
He was skilled in knife skills and quickly processed the countless pieces of dragon meat on the dragon corpse. Dozens of pots were controlled by Lin Qianxing with his mental power at the same time, and he seemed to be very comfortable with it. Dishes made of dragon meat were delivered by puppets one after another, and they were really delivered directly to all the people in the city to enjoy.
The last dragon bones were made into dragon bone soup by Lin Qianxing. He took out several dragon essences the size of a human head from the dragon's belly and placed them into the dragon bone soup, making a pot of broth containing infinite essence.
Even if the latecomers did not get to eat a piece of dragon meat, they were guaranteed to have a sip of dragon soup.
This mouthful of dragon soup is equivalent to decades of hard training for ordinary people.
"Brother Lin..." Huo Cheng came to Lin Qianxing and said in a low voice.
"Brother Huo, don't worry. I have already prepared the things for you." Lin Qianxing took out a small bowl with spatial properties and handed it to Huo Cheng, saying, "I will keep it to your satisfaction."
Huo Cheng opened it and took a look, with a satisfied and excited look on his face, he said: "Thank you, Brother Lin, for your generosity. The emperor will surely reward me more later."
Lin Qianxing smiled slightly. Inside was a bowl of dish made by Longbian. This was something the king asked Huo Cheng to help him get.
By noon, Lin Qianxing had already cooked the dragon into a complete dish and shared it with more than two million people in the surrounding area.
Later generations could only have a sip of dragon soup at most, but even so, it was a great blessing.
At least it can ensure that they will be disease-free and healthy throughout their lives.
At the same time, Lin Qianxing had also completed his enlightenment and took the step to the fourth level.
[Hint: Your third-level Taoist job [Chef] has been successfully upgraded to the fourth-level Taoist job [Dragon-Slaying Chef].]
…
Dragon slaying is his power, and cooking master is his skill in cooking.
Lin Qianxing laughed loudly, and in full view of everyone, a ray of fairy light descended and landed on him.
Immediately his figure turned into feathers and disappeared.
Seeing this scene, countless people couldn't help but kneel down and pay their respects.
This makes the story of the dragon even more legendary.
At this time, someone saw the kitchen utensils that Lin Qianxing "accidentally" left behind.
At this moment, they were all glowing with a faint golden light.
It is a divine object that can only be possessed after being blessed with infinite and strong faith.
Countless people were moved and wanted to obtain it, but were ultimately stopped by Huo Cheng.
After Lin Qianxing ascended to heaven, these things would eventually belong to the government.
In the future it might end up in the imperial kitchen of the palace, or it might be taken away as a treasure that the emperor rewards others, but these have nothing to do with Lin Qianxing anymore.
At this moment, Huo Cheng suddenly discovered that there were some remnants of Taoism on the pots, pans, and spoons.
When he carefully sensed it, he found that they were recipes.
These recipes contain the spirit of Taoism. They are not only recipes, but also secret manuals of cultivation.
If you practice it, you may achieve extraordinary transformation.
When Huo Cheng saw this scene, he couldn't help but stare into space, and said with emotion in his heart: "This fellow Daoist Lin is really a strange person!"
