Dazzling Starlight

"All...all right! Just took a bite..." Chuangzhen said in surprise.

"It seems that he is very familiar with cooking. I can probably guess why his fingers have such calluses!" Seiichiro looked at the boy and said.

The boy put down his chopsticks, sighed again, and said, "However, the fly in the ointment is that the cheering of the ingredients is not very strong, which means that the person who made this dish did not bring their deliciousness to the extreme... For a long time, it will be Break the hearts of the ingredients, Soma Kohei!"

Liu Xingyao stood up and smiled at Xingping Chuangzhen.

That's right, the boy wearing red and white Chinese simple style clothes is naturally Liu Xingyao. In the last few days of the winter vacation, he finally found the restaurant of Xingping and his son, and the purpose of coming here is very simple.I just want to meet the man called "Shura" in the legend, Seiichiro Caibo, the second seat of Totsuki in the 69th issue!

Xingping Chuangzhen's eyes widened and looked at Liu Xingyao in surprise: "You...you know me!?"

No wonder Xingping Chuang was really so surprised, because he was pretty sure he didn't know Liu Xingyao at all.

"I remember... We shouldn't know each other? How did you know my name?" Koping Shuangzhen touched the back of his head and looked at Liu Xingyao in confusion.

Liu Xingyao smiled lightly, did not answer his question but came directly to Seiichiro and bowed slightly to him.

Both Seiichiro and Chuangzhen were confused by Liu Xingyao's bending over, and they didn't know why he did this.

"Hello, Senior Caibo, it's a pleasure to meet you!"

As soon as the word "caibo" was uttered, Seiichiro's expression flashed with surprise, and soon disappeared and returned to normal.

Seiichiro glanced at Liu Xingyao and asked, "Do you know me?"

"It was Chef Man Samu who told me!" Liu Xingyao laughed.

"Man Samu... Monk?"

monk?When Liu Xingyao heard this title, he burst into laughter in his heart!It turned out that Man Samu's bald head had already existed at that time, and this fellow lied to him that his hair had only been shaved in the last few years.All day long, he boasted about how many beautiful women he had chased after him back then. All these beauties were blind, and they liked a monk with no hair?

The next time you see Man Samu, you must make a good mockery of him!Liu Xingyao thought to himself.

"Are you the son of a monk?" Seiichiro returned to the sleazy way he had quarreled with Chuangzhen just now, staring at Liu Xingyao and said, "Oh, I found a wife and gave birth to such a son? I can't believe it... … He couldn’t catch up with a single girl back then, and he was rejected 99 times…”

Son... The muscles on Liu Xingyao's face kept twitching!What's the matter, how can Man Samun give birth to such a handsome son as Lao Tzu?

"Senior Caibo, I'm not his son."

"Ah? Not a son, could it be his apprentice?"

"No, I stayed in his restaurant for a while, and I heard him talk about your deeds." Liu Xingyao said.

Seiichiro touched his chin with a thoughtful look on his face, and said, "Is that so..."

"Wait...Wait, what are you talking about! Who is Man Samu! Also, what's the matter with you calling me Dad Caibo all the time?" Chuangzhen listened bewildered.

Liu Xingyao smiled and said, "Don't you know that? Senior Caibo is the second seat of the Yuanyue Ten Heroes in the 69th period of Yuanyue Academy!"

"Togetsu Academy...Second seat?" Chuangzhen was still confused. He had heard of the cooking school of Togetsu Academy, but he really didn't know about the "Ten Yuejie".

"That's all in the past, I'll have a chance to tell you about Chuangzhen in the future." Seiichiro turned to look at Liu Xingyao and asked, "Did the monk asked you to come to me? Hey, no, how did he know? I am here?"

Liu Xingyao shook his head and said, "It wasn't that Chef Mansamu asked me to come to me, but I found it here myself. I want to see with my own eyes the heroic appearance of the senior Caibo, the second seat of the year."

"Oh, that's it!" Seiichiro touched his chin and thought for a while, and finally his eyes fell on Liu Xingyao's calloused fingers and said, "Your fingers...you got them when chopping vegetables and throwing pots. Yes!"

Liu Xingyao smiled lightly and said, "Sure enough, I can't hide anything from the eyes of Senior Caibo. This is indeed caused by throwing pots and cutting vegetables!"

Although he had already guessed this, Seiichiro was still a little surprised when he heard it!Tossing the pot and chopping vegetables can grow such calluses, how many times a day is the pot tossed?

"What's your name?" Seiichiro asked.

"My name is Liu Xingyao. I'm a student who just passed the entrance examination in the middle of the Yuan Dynasty. It's a pleasure to meet Caibo senior." Liu Xingyao said.

Chapter [-] Sudden request for halberd

Hearing that Liu Xingyao was Togetsu's student, Seiichiro's mouth evoked an unknown smile.

"Dad, the school you asked me to go to after graduating from junior high school should be this Togetsu Academy, right?" Chuangzhen asked.

"Yes!"

When Chuangzhen heard this, he curled his lips and said, "I don't want it. What can I learn in school!? It's better to run a Koping restaurant at home. It's definitely better than staying in Totsuki every day. Much better."

Liu Xingyao smiled in his heart and secretly said: Sure enough, Chuangzhen's thoughts are still in this small restaurant. Do you think that Yuanyue Academy can't meet different guests and can't learn something?

Seiichiro is also aware of Chuangzhen's current inner thoughts, looking at Chuangzhen Road, "Chuangzhen, you always thought that Togetsu could not learn anything, and Tozuki's students are not as experienced as you in the kitchen for 12 years, and now is the opportunity... ...do you want to try it?"

Hearing Seiichiro's words, Liu Xingyao suddenly realized what was going to happen next.

"Try it?" Chuangzhen obviously hadn't reacted.

Seiichiro stepped forward, stood between Liu Xingyao and Chuangzhen, and said, "Let's have an informal halberd meal with this young man!"

"Eat...eat halberd!" Chuangzhen said it was the first time he heard this word.

"The so-called [Shiji] is a traditional cooking one-on-one competition in Totsuki. It is a competition designed to solve disputes between students or some special things. The competition conditions meet the following three points. It can be proved that this is a formal competition. A notary, an odd number of judges, a test condition that must be approved by both sides of the test! It is not a formal halberd, which is the so-called private door." Seiichiro explained briefly.

Liu Xingyao did not speak, and looked at Seiichiro with a smile on his face.On the other hand, Chuangzhen pouted and looked unhappy.

"Chuangzhen, if you lose this unofficial halberd, you should obey me and go to Yuanyue to practice." Seiichiro said.

"What if I beat him!" Chuangzhen pointed at Liu Xingyao and said.

With a smile on his face, Seiichiro said, "If you win, I won't care if you stay at Kopei Restaurant or go to other places in the future!"

"Okay, it's a deal!" Chuangzhen agreed immediately.
