Gentleman's Night Canteen

It's just that the trigger of this ability seems to need some conditions, but he was lucky that it didn't trigger it.

It's not that he feels ashamed to cry in front of others. After all, it's not the first time he's pretended to be crazy or something. The reason why he wants to avoid it is because he has buried too many secrets in his heart.

The plan of the previous King Uther and the fairy in the lake; Artoria's life experience; the prophecy about Artoria's future...

If he is unlucky and happens to meet the 'valve' and doesn't check and tell these secrets, then the trouble will be really big.

In fact, not only in the Lanmeng store, he rarely drank alcohol at ordinary times, even when he had to drink, he drank a little, because he was afraid that he would slip up after drinking.

From a certain point of view, Merlin always has a hippie smile because there are too many secrets hidden in his heart. The heavy pressure makes him have to hide it with a smile. In the end, even he himself can't tell what is going on. Which is the real self.

Lan Meng didn't delve into Merlin's explanation, and even nodded in gratitude.

And Mei Lin, who looked at Lan Meng's sincere expression, felt a little guilty for some reason, obviously Lan Meng just wanted to treat himself to a good meal, but he... Sigh.

'I don't know when I can drink without worry and then get drunk. '

For the time being, let's not worry about Merlin who is extremely sad in his heart. Now that the five judges have been confirmed, the next step will naturally be the formal learning session.

But about the items to discuss...

"Miss Thor, you just said that your best is 'tail cooking', right?"

"Of course!"

Facing Lan Meng's question, Thor raised his head confidently, but unfortunately, as always, she was interrupted by Xiao Lin just as she spoke.

"Thor, forbid!"

Although he didn't even have a noun, Thor still knew what the other party was referring to, and the tail that was raised high with his head also fell down.

Although Lan Meng didn't know that there was any special 'riddle' between Kobayashi and Thor, he still picked up the topic.

"Actually, my teacher just brought a special ingredient that is also a 'tail'. I wonder if you are interested in trying it, Ms. Toll? But don't worry, it's also the first time I've seen this ingredient. As for the characteristics of the ingredients, I will tell you in advance, of course, if you don’t want to, you can choose other ingredients..."

It can be said that Lan Meng took great pains for his task, but what he didn't know was that even Thor couldn't help but nodded silently in his heart.

Of course, nodding his head back, Thor is not going to release the water. After all, even if he appreciates Lan Meng again, it can't change the importance of Xiaolin!

She is willing to destroy the world even for Xiao Lin! !

It's just that before Thor could speak at all, Kobayashi's eyes lit up on the other side.

"Okay! Just use this!!"

Although I don't know what the "special ingredient tail" that Lan Meng said, it doesn't matter to Kobayashi as long as it is not Thor's tail. She is really fed up with having to be careful about the "tail prepared by Thor every day" Meat' days.

Invited by Lan Meng today, she is still very interested in Lan Meng's cooking skills. After all, Connor's expectant eyes can't deceive anyone. She can enjoy delicious food without worrying about Thor's "tail meat". It's literally a win-win!

She wins twice! !

Now that Kobayashi has agreed, Thor will naturally not refuse.

From then on, a discussion using 'Earth Dragon Tail' as an ingredient is about to start...

Chapter 19 Strange Jealousy

When Lan Meng brought Thor to the warehouse and lifted the tarpaulin, Thor's eyes flickered suddenly, and I don't know if it was Lan Meng's illusion, the other party seemed to be a little...gritting his teeth?

Seeing this, Lan Meng hurriedly explained.

"Miss Thor, this is the tail of a monster called 'Earth Dragon' in our place. It attacked our plantation in the desert. Our Grand Leader cut off its tail, but please rest assured that these The monster's recovery ability is very strong, and it won't take long for the tail to grow back..."

Lan Meng patiently explained to Thor the safety of Tushalong.

In fact, among the hunter guilds that value ecological safety, the earth sand dragon is also a monster that needs to be protected.

As for the reason?

Naturally, it was because the other party had a very delicious tail. When the Hunter's Guild was first established, countless rich people entrusted the Hunter's Guild to hunt Tusalong, and even hired hunters to hunt privately after being rejected.

Of course, doing so is naturally illegal. Hunters who hunt illegally will be expelled at the lightest. As for the heaviest?

It is said that the execution was personally carried out by the 'Guild Knights' subordinate to the guild.

That's right, although the original purpose of the Hunter's Guild was to protect the ecological balance and prevent the outbreak of the second human-dragon war, most of the hunters are proficient in fighting various large monsters, but they are not very good at fighting with ordinary people. "Knights" are the outliers among them. They don't fight monsters, but are responsible for some special missions of the Hunter's Guild.

Although the number of sand dragons has recovered a lot over the years through the efforts of the guild, considering the violent character of the sand dragons themselves, as the middle and lower ecological niches, they even dare to challenge the ceratopsians standing at the top of the ecological niche. Attacks, which also caused these iron-headed babies to often die in the wild.

So this time, sand dragons were discovered in the New World, and even though there were not many sand dragons, everyone still followed the regulations to protect sand dragons. After all, no one wanted to repeat the same mistakes.

But to Lan Meng's surprise, after he finished explaining, Thor didn't show an expression of sudden realization, nor a expression of helplessness. Instead, he glanced at the tail of the earth sand dragon on the ground with a little displeasure.

"What are you talking about? I'm not interested in it, I'm just upset... Tsk, lucky guy, he was eaten by Xiao Lin."

'? '

Facing the unhappy Thor, Lan Meng was really confused.

But fortunately, the other party only muttered a few words and didn't say anything more.

Seeing this, Lan Meng also began to explain some characteristics of the 'Earth Dragon Tail' to the other party.

"Earth sand dragons are special creatures that live in deserts. They mainly inhabit swampy areas. In order to keep water, earth sand dragons have the habit of smearing mud on their bodies. However, after years of accumulation of this mud, not only is it very It is hard, and even part of it has infiltrated into the carapace of the sand dragon to make it harder, so the first step when eating it is to remove the carapace...Miss Thor, do you need me to help you deal with it?"

Faced with Lan Meng's suggestion, Thor shook his head after deliberating for a while. Lan Meng didn't say much about it, but silently took out the kitchen knife given to him by Emiya Shiro from the knife holder beside him.

The carapace of Sand Dragon may not be considered a difficult opponent for a seasoned hunter, but before that, if Lan Mengmeng wanted to deal with it, he had to use some special tools, but now he no longer needs to use special props up!

"Whoo~"

Accompanied by the sound of long breathing, Lan Meng is trying to concentrate while adjusting her muscles step by step so that they can exert force at the same time.

As Lan Meng's spirit became more and more concentrated, the feather pendant on his waist was slightly raised, and at the same time, a breeze covered Lan Meng's right hand holding the knife.

Suddenly, Lan Meng's eyes were opened, and then the kitchen knife in his right hand dropped suddenly.

"Thorn~!!"

With a slightly harsh friction sound, the metal kitchen knife instantly cut off the joint of the outermost carapace of the earth sand dragon's tail, and cut it in two directly along the gap of the tailbone.

Seeing this, Lan Meng couldn't help but smile, at least she wasn't ashamed.

At first glance, it looked like a very ordinary knife, but in fact, everything that Lan Meng had mastered so far gathered under this knife.

Needless to say, the most basic physical fitness and how to maximize the strength of the body, there is also learning about monster knowledge, such as the gap under the carapace of the tail is actually a gap in the bones.

However, this is not to say that Lanmeng is stronger than ordinary hunters, it is purely because the outermost layer of mud shell has actually been peeled off when the tail of this earth sand dragon was sent to Lanmeng. It doesn't make much sense, but it is actually one of the best fertilizer raw materials, and it has already been taken away by researchers from the Star Stronghold Research Institute.

But it is obvious that these are of no significance to Lan Meng in front of him. The only thing Lan Meng cares about at this time is how to choose the dishes he is going to make next.

On the other side, Thor, after seeing Lan Meng take off the ingredients he needed to use, after some consideration, finally chose the last part of the tail as the ingredients he used.

As for cutting, it's not as complicated as Lanmeng, but just hold it with both hands, and then pull it hard.

'Baji~'

Accompanied by the extremely exaggerated impression that it looks like a lobster tail, the last section of the sand dragon's tail was directly pulled off by Thor.

Unlike Lan Meng who is still thinking about the recipe to choose next, Thor has already made a decision.

The recipe was the 'tail meat' recipe she usually made for Thor, but it was precisely because of this that she looked unhappy at the tail of the sand dragon in her hand.

But it’s okay to be unhappy, in order to defeat Lan Meng in the field that Lan Meng is best at, Thor is still very serious.

It's just different from Lan Meng who only uses magic as an auxiliary method to cook, Thor's cooking method is very 'magic'.

The first step is to 'roast'.

She directly grabbed the 'sand sand dragon tail' that was pulled down and spewed out a ray of flame.

"Whoo~"

With the sudden increase in temperature in the kitchen, Lan Meng, who was thinking about the recipe, couldn't help but glanced at it, and then his entire expression became subtle.

At this time, he finally knew why Thor didn't care so much about kitchen utensils before.

Well, it turned out that the other party brought their own kitchen utensils.

You don’t need a knife or claws for cutting, and you don’t need a stove for heating. You just don’t know if the other party can spray ice?

I don't know why Lan Meng had an extremely impolite idea. If I raise a dragon by myself, wouldn't it be the same as bringing all kinds of kitchen utensils with me?

Chapter 20 Watch out, humans, this is how tail meat is handled!

Although it was because of Tol Lembong that he had a strange idea, fortunately, he didn't forget that he was not admiring his opponent's cooking skills at the moment, and he didn't even decide on the recipe.

In fact, the cooking method that Lan Meng is best at is "roasting". Meng chose to give up.

It's not that because Thor has chosen to roast, he can't do it. After all, since Lan Meng accepted the opponent's challenge, he naturally won't avoid the confrontation between the tip of the needle and the wheat. The real reason is that he doesn't know much about the ingredients. .

Don't look at how much he explained to Thor, but knowledge belongs to knowledge. No one knows the specific situation without getting started, and the seemingly rough cooking method of roasting actually pays great attention to some details. After all, once it is burnt Or a certain place is half-baked, and a dish is completely ruined.

For unfamiliar ingredients, Blue Dream is not confident that it can present it perfectly.

So what should he do?

Although this is the first time he has seen Tushalong's tail, in fact, the most common cooking method related to the tail is the "pig tail" made by the cold vegetable shop. In addition, it can also be used for stewing or braised in brown sauce. The cooking methods can be described as very wide.

But in the end, Lan Meng chose the special cooking method of "stew" to increase the fault tolerance rate.

The so-called "stew" in cooking generally refers to the cooking that is processed again after one treatment.

The common recipes include stewed three delicacies, and mixed stew that is often made at home.

So what ingredients to choose to match it?

In the end, Blue Dream chose sweet wine and tomato as the main ingredients.

Pairing sweet wine with meat can soften the meat to a certain extent. Not only that, the wine itself can also remove the fishy smell of the ingredients, and can even enhance the unique sweet and sour taste of tomatoes. It can be said to be a very versatile option.

Unlike Thor who bakes directly with the shell, the first step of Lanmeng is to remove the outermost layer of sand dragon tail shell.

Because it has already been cut, he only needs to hold the knife horizontally and penetrate the gap between the meat and the shell to carefully separate it from the fascia.

First cut open the fascia at the junction of the carapace, and then dip my kitchen knife into it to remove the carapace a little bit along the fascia, and soon a large piece of bright red meat was separated.

But then Lanmeng encountered another trouble, that is the tail bone of Tushalong.

When it was disassembled before, Lanmeng took a trick to remove the whole section directly at the tailbone, but now such a large piece must be divided into five parts, and it must be further disassembled, but the problem is that the hardness of this bone depends on the kitchen alone. Lan Meng didn't know that the bone-chopping knife in the movie could be cut off, and even if it was cut off, it might affect the quality of the meat...

Just when Lan Meng was holding the kitchen knife and looking for the angle of attack—————

"What are you doing? Why don't you do it?"

The tail meat in Thor's hand, which is progressing well, has been heating for a while. The next job is to continue heating, and she also has time to look at Lan Meng. Then she saw Lan Meng standing in a daze in front of the ingredients and couldn't help but ask.

Although the two sides are rivals, unlike Thor, in Lan Meng's view, the two sides are just a simple exchange of ideas, so there is no concealment, and it is more troublesome to directly tell the other party to break up.

Regarding this, Thor couldn't help complaining about "weak human beings" in her heart, but then she suddenly remembered something.

My purpose is to defeat Lan Meng where he is best at, so that Xiao Lin will not fall in love with him, but if the opponent loses to me because of the ingredients, then does the opponent have a reason to continue pestering Xiao Lin?

No!

They must all be killed at the budding stage!

While thinking about Thor, he came to Lan Meng's kitchen counter.

"How do you want to cut, I will help you!"

She didn't forget to add something after she finished speaking.

"Take it as Lan Meng's reward for providing the ingredients!"

Because he 'hates' Lan Meng, Thor tried his best to keep a distance from Lan Meng, but it's a pity that Lan Meng didn't think so. After sighing in his heart, 'the other party is really a good person', he pointed out the meat he planned to use to the other party. block size.

Thor also raised his index finger without any nonsense to restore it to the state of dragon claws. With a light stroke, the tail meat turned into five pieces.

The smooth cutting surface made Blue Dream extremely envious.

Seeing this, Thor raised his head confidently.

'Look, humans, this is how tail meat is handled!Sure enough, I am invincible in handling tail meat! ! '

While thinking about Thor in this way, he continued to cook. As for Lan Meng, after sending Thor a "good person card", he can finally continue to cook normally.

The first step of all meat dishes is basically marinating. After cleaning the decomposed tail meat, wrap it in flour and wash it several times, and then marinate it with black pepper, salt and sweet wine. Massage occasionally to ensure marinating effect.

When the massage is almost done, you can start to process other ingredients.

Dice tomatoes, onions, and carrots, and mince garlic.

Among them, carrots and tomatoes need to be peeled first, especially tomatoes must be completely removed in order to ensure the taste.

While peeling tender tomatoes may seem like a hassle at first glance, it's actually quite simple.

First put the tomatoes on the plate and cut a cross-shaped opening on it, and then slowly pour hot water from above.
