Returning from the abyss

Chapter 901
After the menu was handed over, about 15 minutes later, An Youxi, who ordered first, got his appetizer.Everyone knows that this corresponds to the deep house of the Ling Mansion - a soup order.

The soup was served in a pure white porcelain bowl, showing a dark brown color. There were some transparent beads floating in it, without any oily flowers. There was a layer of hot air slowly wafting out from the surface of the soup. An Youxi was very interested He picked up the spoon and stirred it, and picked up a ball.

"Let me have a taste." He smiled at everyone, and then sucked the contents of the spoon into his mouth.

Everyone stared at An Youxi's expression intently.After drinking a spoonful of soup, he chewed twice, his eyes narrowed slightly.He sighed and reached for the spoon into the bowl again.

"The taste is very good, and... the thickness is not heavy on the taste. It is hard to imagine how to cook a soup like this in a short period of time. As for the meaning conveyed by this dish, it is different from the ones we have seen. Not too much difference, a love-hate relationship. Let me taste it carefully."

After speaking, he took another spoonful of soup and began to taste it.From the demeanor, there is really nothing abnormal, but the most important thing is the meaning contained in it.

Immediately afterwards, Ke Daolin and Mei Yu's soup also came up, and the two of them immediately began to taste. What these two people drank were dramas that had not been filmed yet, and after drinking, the two of them frowned at the same time.

"What's wrong?" Lu Ning asked.

"It's delicious, but..." Mei Yu glanced at Ke Daolin with some hesitation.

"It's just delicious, without any special feelings." Cordolin said, "Even if the chef doesn't say it, I don't think this dish will cost us much."

"As I said, except for those nine stories, the rest of the stories are probably used as cover-ups and have no practical significance." An Youxi said.

"Then what's special about your food?" Qu Yi asked.

"No, maybe because this is only the first story, everything is still the beginning, all the mysteries are still hidden behind, not fully revealed." An Youxi shrugged.

After the three of them drank the soup, Lu Ning and Qu Yi's were also brought up. Lu Ning's soup was placed in a bowl made by digging out the flesh from half a green melon, while Qu Yi's soup was served in a bowl. Put it into a wooden bowl, the bowl is relatively tall, and it even looks like a cup.

Lu Ning picked up her soup, "memory", she didn't write many words in the detailed description, but just wrote "dishes that can make me recall the past quietly", the soup in the melon bowl in front of her... looks like It's already cold.

She took a spoonful, and the soup in the spoon turned out to be light green. She took a sip slowly, and a fresh taste flowed into her mouth, which was somewhat like her favorite vanilla tea, but in it Mixed with a faint bitter taste.

This bitterness is not unacceptable, but mixed with freshness, it makes the tongue slightly tingly.Lu Ning swallowed the soup, named it an icy liquid, but formed a warm current in her stomach, rushed to the top of her head, and circled slightly around her eyes, making her eyes sore.

"Ha..." Lu Ning sighed with emotion, and slowly drank the soup in the bowl. She felt that the light cracks in the corners of her eyes were slowly disappearing, and some headache symptoms caused by excessive acceptance of knowledge had also improved. As for the memory ... She remembered many things, forgotten or not, and some faces that had been almost buried.

"Cough!" At this moment, a violent cough interrupted Lu Ning's thoughts. She turned her head and saw that Qu Yi was coughing violently, and even spilled a lot of soup in the bowl.Lu Ning immediately reached out and patted Qu Yi's back, helping her sort out the breath.

An Youxi narrowed his eyes, and looked at the waiter who was standing not far from the table after serving the dishes: "Miss, what's going on?"

"Maybe it has something to do with the dishes she ordered." The waiter responded softly.

Lu Ning glanced at the table, the splash of soup left a dark red color, she directly scooped up a little bit, and touched it with her tongue, a spicy and burning feeling immediately came to the tip of her tongue.

"Bah, bah... Such a spicy thing, as an appetizer? Do you know how to cook?" Lu Ning was quite dissatisfied. No matter where, this kind of strong food should never be used as the first dish, right?
"Please be safe, everyone." Yuan Tao came out from the back kitchen with two trays at some point, "What this lady wants to see is her own sins, and the spiciness of this dish is due to It varies from person to person. If you think you have no sin, it is a suitable appetizer. The more you think you are sinful, the more violent your reaction will be. You probably just felt some mild spicy degree, then it means that you do not consider yourself to have committed an unforgivable sin."

"Then there might be something wrong with this dish." Lu Ning sneered, "I still made a lot of mistakes."

"Oh? If that's the case... We won't charge for this dish. Now everyone's appetizers are ready, please enjoy it." Yuan Tao didn't argue, put down the tray in his hand, and put the five dishes together They were served in front of the corresponding people.

The dish in front of Lu Ning was a small tower of baked pastries, and the rose-red sauce was spread with a spoon underneath, and five white meats that should be shellfish were evenly placed around the place, each of which was just right Squeeze a little sauce.

She picked up a piece of meat with a fork and put it in her mouth.

It is cold, with a hint of sweetness and fishy smell. It is indeed seafood, but the coldness...is it sashimi?But it doesn't taste like it.Immediately, the aroma inside the meat burst out, and a thrilling sense of happiness and fear was transmitted from her taste buds to her heart. Happiness is because of beauty, while fear is because of this fleeting beauty.

This dish is "fall".The moment Lu Ning noticed it, she took a deep breath and calmed down.She had to admit that the taste of this dish matched her state of mind almost perfectly, and there was no way to pick out any mistakes.And looking up at the faces of everyone, they were all enjoying the food, and even Qu Yi's dish didn't go wrong.

"Everyone, please take your time, the first main course will be here soon." Yuan Tao bowed lightly, turned and returned to the kitchen.

"It seems that the two of us will have to eat this simple and delicious dish for a long time." Ke Daolin said, "Lu Ning, Qu Yi, where are you two?"

"My dinner is the dinner." Lu Ning smiled.

"Me too." Qu Yi fiddled with the remaining piece of ham on the plate with a fork, "I filled the six investors with the dishes in the back."

"Okay." Ke Daolin nodded, and turned to An Youxi again.

"Now these two dishes are stories that we have finished filming, and they lack touching new ideas, but the content of the story is almost conveyed, and the cooking is indeed of a certain level." An Youxi said, "It's just that I don't know what to pay. What a price."

After more than ten minutes, the first main course was served.Lu Ning looked at the steak in front of her, and put it directly on the chopping board. The spices on the top gave off a strong smell after being roasted. Just a simple smell can make people feel happy. She picked it up Gently cut the steak with a knife and fork, the gravy flowed out a little, and when the fat layer was cut, it gave off the unique aroma of fat when it was baked again, coupled with the just right, perfect color of the red meat layer, it is completely fascinating. Keep your eyes open.

"Is this a good omen?" She was a little surprised. Does a good omen really represent inevitable good luck just like its meaning?

Of course, after trying to eat a piece of meat, she understood a little bit.

The spices on the top need to be scraped off. The spices themselves have released their own flavor into the meat. If you eat the spices at this time, some bitterness that does not belong to the dish itself will be mixed in. This taste greatly reduces the happiness of the dish. .And if you patiently scrape off the spices and then eat the meat, you will be able to taste what the happiest meat is like.

To Lu Ning's surprise, after she finished the main course, the second one came out immediately.

A whole chick, with all the bones removed by unknown means, was carefully cooked.It was much different in appearance from the previous dish as it appeared to be just a boneless chicken and a small cup of sauce with a few garnishes on the side.Lu Ning tried to cut a piece and tasted it before discovering the mystery of this dish.

The chicken itself was tender, but it was definitely cooked in the most basic way, not seasoned at all.And the sauce has a very strong taste, and the sauce will even feel unpalatable when tasted alone. Only when the two are put together, will it show the best taste.At the same time, the ratio of sauce to meat is different, so is the degree of deliciousness. When Lu Ning figured out the best ratio, there was actually not much meat left on the plate.

This is the "pendulum".

The third main course, a piece of lobster shell that was completely black in appearance, placed a few pieces of red shrimp meat.The salty and spicy seasoning did not cover up the freshness of the shrimp itself. Only after getting used to the abnormally excessive seasoning, could the taste of the shrimp inside be tasted. After eating this dish, Lu Ning felt that she no longer wanted to eat the following dishes Now, her throat is filled with that taste—does this dish represent "disaster"?

The last main dish is a plate of mushroom and seafood soup. This dish is just right to dispel the overly strong taste in Lu Ning's throat. It is used to match the very crispy bread. The spicy feeling gradually disappeared, and Lu Ning even felt that the various unique feelings brought about by the few dishes she had eaten before gradually disappeared, whether it was the strong sense of happiness, or the meat and sauce that needed to be adjusted in proportion At this moment, under the neutralization of this soup, it has slowly become a part of the memory, and it has become less profound.

When Lu Ning took the last bite of bread, the soup was just finished.She exhaled contentedly, and she was almost full. Only then did she remember to look up at her companions. Everyone was at the end of the last course. An Youxi had finished eating and was smiling. Put down the knife and fork and ask the waiter to take away the plate.

"How do you feel?" Lu Ning asked him.

"I... feel like I have seen the moonlight." An Youxi chuckled, "Every time I finish eating a dish, I can feel that the light in my heart is brighter. Maybe after eating all the dishes, I You can follow the guidance of the light and find the true location of the Moonlight Valley."

"Sounds good." Lu Ning nodded, then turned to look at Qu Yi again.

Qu Yi was eating his last dish. It looked like ribs. It was probably cooked first, then fried, and then roasted. The meat was soft and rotten, very suitable for eating. I don’t know which investor it was.

At this moment, Mei Yu suddenly patted the table, and the waiter hurried over.She had just finished her main course, and now she was spitting out some blood, mixed with the rest of the sauce on the plate, which looked a little scary.

"Guest, may I ask..."

"Is there something wrong with your dish?" Mei Yu whispered, "I have never heard of any dish that would make people vomit blood!"

"Guest, the last main dish you ordered is 'Power of Self', the dishes we present to you should meet your expectations, unless..."

"Shut up!" Mei Yu patted the table again, "Are you trying to say that I still can't control my power? Good! Very good..."

"Mei Yu, don't be impatient, everyone wants to seek their own growth, but growth is a process, it doesn't happen overnight." Ke Daolin said.

After a moment of silence, Mei Yu waved her hand to let the waiter take away the plate.

"Everyone, the dinner is over. I think everyone should have a rough estimate of the price you have to pay. I don't think the pricing will be based on our verbal feedback. There should be a special way of judgment." Ke Daolin looked Xiang everyone, "Even if there is an accident, I think it's okay to pay some price instead of each other."

"But it looks like our after-dinner items are ready." Lu Ning glanced at the waiter who came out of the back kitchen again.

Her tray contained wine and desserts. Except for cold meals, everything ordered by everyone had arrived.Lu Ning's wine corresponds to "Mirage", and the dessert is a triangular cake, which corresponds to the dish "Guardian".

She picked up the wine glass and took a sip. "Mirage" had a long and ancient mellow taste. At that moment, Lu Ning felt in a trance that the special power she had mastered was swaying in her body. There is a feeling of being unable to stop.As the bitter taste of the wine enters the throat, this throbbing disappears without a trace, it is really like a mirage, just a temporary shadow.

This feeling made her basically give up this route.

Then there was dessert, Lu Ning gently scooped out a spoonful, paused for a second or two, and put the dessert into her mouth.

About ten seconds later, she clutched her stomach and rolled under the chair, which obviously surprised everyone.
