In Xu Tangyu's hand, he held a plate, and on the plate was a piece of tender tofu.
"This is... my meal today?" Gu Yuan said with a smile. Xu Tangyu shook his head: "This is not for you to eat."
"Eh... Then I don't have fun with this. Besides, you have to drill a hole first..."
"What?" Xu Tangyu was stunned.
"It's okay, it's okay, you say it first." Gu Yuan said quickly. Xu Tangyu nodded, put away his smile, pointed at the tofu, and said, "Junior Brother Gu, your next task is to use Yin Shen to carve a flower out of this piece of tofu." Gu Yuan's eyes widened and he stood subconsciously. He stood up and looked at each other in bewilderment.
He felt that Xu Tangyu was joking, but Xu Tangyu told him with his expression that he was not just talking.
"Carving... on tofu? Not to mention using Yin Shen, even if you ask me to carve it with my hands, I don't have the skills to do it." Gu Yuan couldn't laugh or cry. He was not working on cold dishes in a restaurant.
Xu Tangyu thought about it and felt that this was indeed a bit embarrassing for Gu Yuan, so he said: "Let's make it simple. Carving an article on tofu is not too much, right?" Gu Yuan: "..." Xu Tangyu is very interested in this person.
Is there any misunderstanding about the word "excessive"? Looking at the expression on Gu Yuan's face, Xu Tangyu laughed and said: "It seems that if I don't show Junior Brother Gu some real skills, I can't convince you." After saying this, he put a carving knife on On the table, he then closed his eyes. An unknown wind suddenly hit him and blew his hair. Immediately, Gu Yuan could sense the presence of Xu Tangyu's Yin Shen.
Gu Yuan immediately kept quiet and sat upright, like a good student obediently listening to the teacher. The carving knife that was originally placed on the table was now held up by Xu Tangyu's Yin Shen. It was suspended in the air, and then slowly fell down and began to carve the tofu. In Gu Yuan's shocked eyes, the piece of tender tofu Soon it became a flower.
Compared with the old chefs in the restaurant, Xu Tangyu's carving work on the tofu is not exquisite, but it can indeed be seen that it is a flower. Even if Gu Yuan did it with his hands, he would not be able to do this.
The whole process of Xu Tangyu's carving with Yin Shen only took about ten minutes. It seems that practice makes perfect, and he practiced a lot on weekdays.
"It's a pity that my talent is limited and I can only do this." Xu Tangyu opened his eyes and said,
"But with Junior Brother Gu's unique talent, he will definitely have more control over the Yin Shen than me in the future. I will ask someone to send more tofu later. Junior Brother Gu, come on!" Gu Yuan could only nod with a wry smile.
Previously, she thought Xu Tangyu was joking, but she didn't expect that the other party was actually serious. Now the tofu pudding is placed in front of her, whether it's okay or not, it's okay.
Soon, two disciples of the Shenguang Sect brought two large plates of tofu. When they left, they did not forget to tell them: "Well, Senior Brother Gu, when you are done with this tofu, call us and we will give it to you again. If you have any leftovers, Don’t waste it, we’ll make it for dinner tonight.”
"Okay..." Gu Yuan nodded. After the people left, Gu Yuan did not act in a hurry, but went through it in his mind first.
At this time, he recalled the time when Mr. Zhong forced him to use a knife to carve characters on bamboo pieces. I thought that days like this were gone forever, but I didn't expect that I would have to go back to the old ways so soon, and this time the difficulty would be even greater than carving words on the bamboo board.
There are also common points among them. One is to train one's control over the sword and force, and the other is to train one's control over the Yinshen.
When Gu Yuan closed his eyes and tried for the first time, the carving knife was swinging in the air, but it could not be fixed in the air. Thinking of Xu Tangyu's understatement before, Gu Yuan now looks more like
"Lu Zhishen paints eyelashes." Accidentally, the carving knife in his hand cut the tofu in half. He was not discouraged and continued what he had just done. Within three to five minutes, a piece of tofu was chopped into pieces by Gu Yuan.
He didn't bother, he stretched out his hand to put the tofu into the basin next to him, and took out a new piece of tofu. If he didn't control his strength well, he could break the tender tofu by accident.
Although Gu Yuan tried his best to control his strength, it was not a simple matter. It was like using a steel mechanical arm to pick up a flower and then peel off the petals piece by piece. Thinking about it, it was terrifying. So.
In the process of trying, Gu Yuan's Yin Shen was also severely consumed. Immediately, he stood up, called in the Shenguang Sect disciples standing at the door of the courtyard, and took a pill in front of them, and they Also write it down very carefully.
When he saw a bucket of broken tofu next to him, the disciple joked: "Junior Brother Gu, is there enough tofu? How about I get you some more?"
"Okay." Gu Yuan did not refuse. Judging from the current progress, it will take a long time for me to engrave words on tofu. I don’t know how much tofu I will consume, and I don’t know if the stock of Shenguangmen tofu is enough.
When the disciple of the Shenguang Sect came out holding the basin of tofu, his face was still cheerful. When I see other disciples on the road, I can greet them warmly.
"Haha, yes! We are going to have tofu soup tonight! Master Zhou's beef and tofu soup is one of a kind!" When he came out of the kitchen, he was carrying a large basin of tofu and walked carefully. , for fear of breaking the tofu in a panic, but also worried that Gu Yuan would be impatient while waiting, so he had to use the trick of turning the drainage ditch.
Gu Yuan cheered up and continued
"Carefully crafted". In the evening, smelling the tofu soup, the disciples of the Shenguang Sect in the cafeteria were all smiling.
“Master Zhou’s beef and tofu soup is indeed getting better and better!”
"Haha, and this fish with pickled vegetables and tofu is also a must!" Xu Tangyu, who was sitting in the corner of the cafeteria, sighed quietly.
These young children... obviously haven't realized the horror of the problem. The leader of the Feng Sect, Elder Kui, and others were also eating in a small building.
"Lao Zhou's craftsmanship is getting better and better." But when the beef and tofu soup was served the next morning, although Feng Sect Master felt it was strange, he didn't say much.
"Lao Zhou's beef and tofu soup, I really can't get enough of it! Hahaha, Elder Kui, what do you think?"
"That's true." The elders said in agreement. When the meal served at noon was still beef and tofu soup, Feng Sect Master didn't say anything more, but still drank half the bowl with a smile on his face.
In the evening, when he saw the beef and tofu soup being served on the table, Master Feng finally couldn't hold himself any longer and slapped his hand on the table, then got up and went to the kitchen.
"Zhou, you're going too far!"
