The moon is bright, the wind is clear, and the stars are surrounding the moon. It seems that the weather will be good tomorrow.
But Li Mo's mood didn't seem to be very good. He grabbed the witch's wrist with both hands and his eyes were scary and serious.
"You damn witch, you actually..."
"Haha, it seems that even if he is stupid, the dog's nose is still very clever."
Facing Li Mo's violence, the witch smiled and did not resist, but she still said she would not spare Li Mo.
"I'm not kidding you!"
Li Mo stared at the witch in the forest anxiously.
"You guy...are you using someone else's kitchen without permission again!"
"Don't be so stingy, it's just a little use."
The witch showed the calmness of someone who had a criminal record before, and pulled away Li Mo's hand, making an expression like "This guy is really not cute."
"What does it mean to be stingy? I don't know you yet. Have you washed your hands? Have you put away the remaining ingredients? Have you cleaned up the kitchen utensils after use? Have you misplaced the condiments for me?"
"You're so annoying."
Because of Li Mo's impolite verbosity, the witch's face lost expression and she lightly kicked Li Mo's leg.
"Don't tell me that you broke your stove again. I only fixed it for you last month."
Li Mo didn't think the witch had any reason to be angry.
Last month, it was because her stove was broken that she went to the Demon King's City to cook, and she changed the places of sugar and salt without telling her. As a result, she was severely beaten by the Demon King.
"No, no, no, the kitchen sink is blocked this time."
The witch smiled like an angel at Li Mo, and the rune eyes on the hood turned into a squinting smile.
"It's no use pretending to be cute, you old woman! Besides, you actually make something as high-end as potato stew!"
"Ara, your nose is indeed very good, but potato stew is also called high-end...Has your Demon King's City's funding bottomed out again?"
"I bought a few games for the Demon King a few days ago."
Li Mo played with his fingers and looked away, his voice like a mosquito moth filled with a little helplessness.
"You should still dote on the little devil as always. Forget it, you haven't eaten yet, so let's eat together. I just said that your feast has arrived, and this is the food cooked by this witch herself."
"Okay, okay, potato stew? It's really good."
The devil agreed to the witch's invitation before Li Mo, perhaps thinking of the delicious potato stew, she even licked her lips.
"No! Absolutely not!"
Li Mo resolutely rejected the witch's invitation, not because the food the witch made was unpalatable, but simply because of his self-esteem. He would never bow to the witch.
"Even if I, Li Mo, die today, even if I jump from the Demon King's City, I won't eat anything from you!"
“It smells so good!”
The increasingly strong aroma of stewed meat overflowed from the kitchen. The Demon King giggled and didn't know what he was imagining, and saliva flowed from the corner of his mouth.
"If you, the bald man, want to starve, forget it, but don't let the little devil starve."
"I'm not bald, nor am I a middle-aged uncle..."
Li Mo wanted to protest, but he stopped because the witch prompted him to look at the devil. The devil had already taken out her special small bowl and was waiting there with a happy giggle.
Li Mo turned to look at the witch, squinting at him with her hooded rune eyes, with a proud look on her face.
"As things stand now, we can only..."
Li Mo stumbled a few steps, his bangs covering his eyes, but he still didn't want to lose.
And you absolutely cannot lose.
A kitchen knife appeared in his hand at some point. Without any hesitation, Li Mo grabbed the knife...
Then,
Put on an apron and a chef's hat.
"Let's use cooking to decide the winner, witch of the forest!"
"Why did it suddenly unfold like this!"
The witch didn't expect that inviting people to a meal would turn into a cooking competition. Regarding Li Mo's unusual thinking, she could only use magic to put a question mark around the hood's big eyes.
"You just use your potatoes to stew the meat, and I will cook another dish, and the judging will be handed over to the Demon King. How about it?"
"So why did it unfold like this!"
"Oh? What, are you scared?"
"Ah?! Am I afraid of your Zhisheng? That's just right, you bastard!"
The witch showed an evil smile. She was not provoked by Li Mo to accept this game. She had every reason.
"Idiot, there are only some carrots and cabbage in your poor refrigerator. What are you going to do to win over me?"
Yes, she had already confirmed that she had cooked in advance, and these were the only things in the refrigerator.
And, as long as the judges are little devils, vegetables will never win over meat.
Winning, winning without a doubt, now I can humiliate this...
However, the witch stopped thinking at this moment.
"When did you surrender?"
Li Mo was holding a small piece of tied tenderloin and potatoes in front of her face. Those ingredients were undoubtedly her leftovers.
"So I asked, have the ingredients been put away?"
"hateful!"
The witch bit her sleeve angrily. It was the first time she was so upset about her bad habits, and it was impossible to get the ingredients back if they fell into the hands of this rogue Zhisheng.
"Chasing wits with me? You are still a bit naive. I had predicted in advance that you would definitely raid my refrigerator. After knowing this disadvantage, I hurriedly took over the game. Don't forget, I am the strongest in the Demon King's army. Wise general."
Li Mo didn't intend to argue with the witch anymore and walked straight to the kitchen.
But the moment Li Mo turned around, the corners of the witch's mouth secretly raised.
"Hmph, idiot Zhisheng, do you think I didn't expect that you would anticipate my thoughts? I have already anticipated that you have anticipated my thoughts. I want to see what you can make with these leftover materials. "
At this moment, this side of Li Mo.
"Hmph, idiot witch, do you think I didn't expect that you had anticipated that I had anticipated your thoughts? I had already anticipated that you had anticipated that I had anticipated your thoughts! But I still have a way to win!"
At this moment, the Demon King is here.
"Hmph, these two idiots, Yu has already predicted Li Mo, and the witch has predicted Li Mo...ah, I bit my tongue."
In the kitchen.
Cut the tenderloin as evenly and easily as possible from the end. The same goes for potatoes, carrots and cabbage.
"Using these scraps cannot compare with the meat used by the witch, so we must find a way..."
Yes, you can't win with the same stuff, so he has to use these simple ingredients to make something beyond potato stew.
So his choice is:
"curry!"
Li Mo quietly took out his treasured high-end curry powder from the cupboard. Although he was not willing to waste such high-end things on such low-level ingredients, there was no other way to win.
"Cookings that are too different will make it difficult to choose, so the best way to determine the outcome is to choose similar dishes. Potato stew and curry have the same purpose, but..."
At the end of the meal, put the ingredients evenly into the pot and adjust the size of the fire.
"However, the advantage of curry is that curry powder further enhances the sophistication of the food, and curry has informal characteristics. If you add other ingredients to the potato stew, the taste of the stew will be greatly changed. Curry is different. It is open to all kinds of people. Curry brings out the flavors of other ingredients, so I can also use carrots and cabbage.”
How can something as monotonous as potato stew be compared with a curry that combines several ingredients in one meal? Witch, witch, have you calculated this far?
"However, this is also a risky move."
Looking at the potato stew that the witch was simmering over low heat, Li Mo showed a distressed expression.
Stews are different from fast-food stir-fries. You don’t need to adjust the taste in a short time. You can only adjust the proportion of spices in advance, and stews are all dishes that take time to cook.
After simmering for so long, even if he didn't want to, Li Mo still had to admit that this pot of potato stew was really mouth-watering.
"Hehehe, but I'm the only one in the kitchen now. As long as I pour this spoonful of salt in unconsciously..."
The word treachery was plastered all over Li Mo's face.
Don't blame me, Zhijiang is playing a treacherous role.
He slowly opened the lid of the forest witch's pot:
"Suffer death!"
He prepared to sprinkle a large spoonful of salt in his hand into the pot as if he were sprinkling salt on the witch herself.
However, the next second he stopped.
"Ali, are you okay yet?"
The urging voice of the Demon King came from outside the door.
"It'll be ready soon."
Li Mo responded to the devil and closed the lid silently.
"I'm so stupid. I ruined the food I put so much effort into. I really lost by doing that."
Li Mo looked at the curry he had prepared and smiled bitterly.
Cooking is obviously something that should bring people happiness, isn't it? If it's just for judging the outcome, then what's the point of making it.
The witch's potato stew only uses a few simple ingredients, but it contains the witch's hard work. The potatoes are cut into just the right size so that the children can eat them well, and the spice bags are carefully wrapped with cotton cloth. , carefully selected tenderloin, all the heart is well contained in it.
Obviously I am the same, I have been working hard just to see the smiling face of the Demon King. Why would I forget this?
"Okay! Just use all your skills and let the Demon King eat the best food!"
The witch's pot was steaming with steam, and the lid and the pot were beating in rhythm, urging the cook to miss the hungry child.
Jingle bell—jingle bell—
The Demon King lay helplessly on the table, knocking on the dishes.
"Dinner is ready!"
As Li Mo's voice sounded, the Witch's stew and Li Mo's curry with the dining lid closed were placed in front of the Demon King.
"Aha!"
The already powerless Demon King instantly stood on the chair with his eyes shining and exclaimed with joy.
"Hey, what did you do? It's so mysterious and you locked it up."
"Hmph, witch of the forest, just take a good look at it."
The moment Li Mo opened the lid of the meal, a golden light shone inside.
The aroma of tenderloin instantly filled the room, and the bright-colored curry flowed from the freshly cooked rice along with the meal cover, which whetted your appetite.
"Hey, it's not bad..."
The witch dipped some of it with her chopsticks and put it in her mouth. Although she didn't want to admit it, the taste of this curry was definitely the best she had ever tasted.
"snort!"
Li Mo pointed his nostrils at the witch and made a disdainful sound.
"I thought you were going to do some tricks."
"Who am I, Li Mo? I am an excellent adult! How can I play tricks."
When Li Mo finished his skilled battle with the witch, he turned to look at the Demon King, only to find that the curry and stew had been wiped out by the Demon King. He must have been starving.
Li Mo smiled helplessly at first, then cheered up and slammed the table.
"Come on! Lord Demon King, tell me loudly who is the winner!"
Although he already knew the result, Li Mo still wanted to take a deep breath in front of the witch. He put his hands in front of his ears and prepared to accept the good news of victory.
"Yu's choice is!"
"Uh-huh!"
"The witch of the forest!"
"Hahahahaha...ha, eh!?"
Li Mo couldn't believe his ears, so he slapped himself and asked:
"Say it again, Lord Demon King, I seem to be a bit deaf."
"So, the witch of the remaining forest."
"It's my victory."
The witch beside her covered her mouth and giggled, which made Li Mo a little irritable.
"That's not right, Lord Demon King, have you tasted it? There is still a little bit left, lick it and see!"
"You're so annoying!"
"Ugh——!"
Li Mo's heart was like a thousand sharp knives passing through him. He silently walked to the corner and drew a circle on the ground with his hand:
"I'm so annoyed, very annoyed, and the food I cook doesn't taste good. The curry I made with all my heart is not as delicious as a witch's stew. Yes, I am a failure. I am annoying with my nagging. Anyway, I am a person who doesn’t care. Ah, even if I disappear, no one will care about me. Cong Yujiang is the best in the world. Forget it, I am just an old man who is about to enter the ranks of uncles. I make things that no one cares about. There is no guarantee of food or job, I have to be beaten every day and there is not even any weeds for dinner..."
It seems that Li Mo is an excellent adult, but also an easily injured adult.
