People in Teyvat, starting from saving the grass god

It seems to have nothing to do with these three words, right?

"Very surprised?"

"hey-hey."

"Today I will take you to see a Wanmin Hall that you have never seen before."

Rhodes laughed strangely and walked in with Xiao.

"Mr. Rhodes, you are here~~~"

Xiangling, who had been waiting anxiously, became excited when she saw Rhode finally arrived: "The two guests you booked earlier have arrived."

"Uh-huh."

"Thank you for your help, Miss Xiangling."

Rhodes greeted Xiangling familiarly.

During his time in Liyue, Rhodes most often visited the Hall of All People.

Sometimes he came by himself, and sometimes Zhongli invited him to come.

Over time.

She became familiar with Xiangling, the cook.

Today, Rhodes made a reservation for a special meal in advance.

In order to fulfill the promise made to Seno and Tinari in the Chasm, inviting Xiao to experience a different Hall of Nations was a natural thing to do.

Send Rod and Xiao to the reserved box.

Xiangling happily rushed to the kitchen with the rice crust like a whirlwind, and began to prepare a dish that would be considered the best in the whole of Liyue.

In the box.

Tinari and Senor, who were dressed in Sumeru costumes, saw Xiao coming in with Rhodes and couldn't help but ask curiously: "Is this the guest you mentioned?"

When Seno spoke, a strange look flashed in his eyes.

He saw a murderous aura in Xiao that was quite similar to his own.

Even though Seno always behaves nonsensically or extremely relaxed in front of his own people, he is the great disciplinarian of Xumi after all. No matter where the criminals are tracked, from the desert to the rainforest, or even if they escape to a foreign country, they cannot escape his pursuit.

Over the years.

He already had accumulated enough murderous aura in his body that was enough to make people tremble.

And he was so murderous.

In front of Xiao, it seems so insignificant.

"Where did Rhodes meet such a vicious man?"

Sano's question no longer existed after Rod introduced Xiao's identity.

"This is the Liyue Immortal, the Great Saint who conquers demons among the Yakshas, ​​Xiao."

After a brief introduction, Rhode sat down next to Senor and Tinari with a smile, rubbing his hands and said, "Don't complain that I didn't keep my promise this time. I found the best person in Liyue to make the slime feast you mentioned."

"Slime dinner?"

Hearing this name, a hint of hesitation appeared on Xiao's face.

This thing.

Really edible?

Compared to Xiao who looked skeptical about the slime feast, Seno and Tinari seemed to be in high spirits.

To taste this slime feast.

They also brought a borrowed camera and prepared Tinari's experimental notebook, ready to record the steps of making slime dishes in detail.

"These two are my senior brothers, Tinari, a scholar of the Life Theory School of Xumi, and Saino, a great disciplinary officer."

As Xiao looked at the slime feast in amazement, Rhode continued to introduce Tinari and Senor to him, and then said, "Don't underestimate this slime dish. If it is confirmed that slime can indeed be used as food, then for Xumi, where nearly one-third of the population cannot even get enough food, this is a very valuable expansion of food varieties."

"Yes."

Tinari nodded in agreement with Rhode's words: "In the past, when we, the life theory scholars, discussed and researched new edible species, we always excluded monsters like slime. I didn't expect that there are people in Liyue who can make slime into a dish. If the feasibility of slime as food is confirmed, it will be of great significance both in terms of supplementing food varieties and in providing an edible species for the scientific expedition team when they are in distress."

“There’s more.”

After Tinari finished talking about the scientific research route, Rhode winked at Xiao and said, "Mr. Zhongli also likes to come to Wanmin Hall to taste Xiangling's innovative dishes. If you want to experience Mr. Zhongli's daily life, you must not miss Xiangling's special slime cuisine."

“Is this the different Manmin Hall?”

Xiao recalled what Rhode had said to him before he entered the room, and chuckled, "Okay, then I'll come and experience the daily life of Emperor Zhongli."

Chapter 247 The Emperor's Pleasure

Xiangling’s innovative dishes have always received mixed reviews in Liyue.

Without him.

There are simply too many dark and anti-human dishes.

Slime cuisine is a typical example.

Even Keqing, who often patrols the grassroots and is used to eating all kinds of strange-tasting dishes, and Beidou, who makes a living on the sea and is never picky about food, find it difficult to accept the slime dishes she makes.

But this does not mean that Xiangling’s innovative dishes are all inedible and a complete waste of food.

Actually.

She made innovative dishes.

Except for a few dishes that use strange ingredients, all dishes that use normal ingredients, even if they are rare delicacies, are at least not bad.

Especially through her development.

There are many inconspicuous ingredients that Liyue people would not normally use in cooking, or ingredients that taste very bad, but she has made them into extremely popular local dishes.

The most typical dish among them is kidney slices.

Anyway, Rhodes never thought that he could taste such authentic flavors in Liyue.

Most people do not know how to remove the glands with strange smell when cooking kidney slices, and the resulting dish is so fishy that it is difficult to swallow.

Therefore, unless it is a time of famine.

Otherwise, no one would touch this kind of food.

After repeated research and attempts, Xiangling discovered the problem with the fishy smell of pork kidneys. After removing the glands, she added Wanmintang's unique spicy seasoning and finally made the fried pork kidney dish that was very popular among the people of Liyue.

By the way.

Wanmin Hall is located in Chihuyan, which is also the place with the largest number of laborers in Liyue.

Influenced by the customer base.

Most of the dishes at Wanmin Hall are spicy and numbing.

Xiangling and her father, Master Mao, are top-notch experts in cooking spicy dishes.

That's why.

The first dish she served was her specialty, stir-fried fire slime.

The slime slices are stir-fried until crispy and bright red in color, accompanied by handfuls of red peppers, unknown fruits and grass leaves. The strong and fragrant flavor created in this way is so appetizing as soon as the dish is served.

It should be the contract made with Rhodes before.

After the dish is served.

Xiangling explained the method and ingredients of the stir-fried slime, and then waited here excitedly for everyone to try the dish.

Watch people taste your new dish.

This is one of Xiangling's hobbies.

Even though the kitchen still needed her to prepare the next dish, she still patiently waited for Rhode and the others' reactions after tasting the dishes.

The first one to pick up his chopsticks was not Tinari, who was doing scientific research, nor was it Seno, who wanted to explore new ingredients, but Xiao, who was a little scared when he first heard the name of slime food.

It seemed like he was imitating Zhongli a bit.

After trying it.

He couldn't be as calm and composed as Zhongli, who could face all kinds of flavors, and everyone could immediately see that the dish was not to his taste.

“The taste is OK.”

After some hesitation, Xiao gave his own evaluation.

"You don't have to force it."

"Xiangling wouldn't mind your comments."

Rhodes handed Xiao a cup of tea and asked him to rinse his mouth.

This is also one of the rules of food tasting.

That is, before trying a new dish, you should rinse the taste in your mouth to avoid affecting your evaluation of the next dish.

Xiao’s reaction also made Xiangling, who was originally full of expectations, a little disappointed.

As a cook.

Naturally, I hope that all the new dishes I develop will be welcomed by customers.

It is inevitable to feel a little disappointed when your customers don’t like your new dishes.

Fortunately.

This is not the first time this has happened.

After all, not everyone is as open to eating as Xiangling, and not everyone has an iron stomach.

Therefore, there are many foods that Xiangling herself is very satisfied with, but when she serves them to the guests, they are unacceptable.

This is also the reason why Xiangling likes Zhongli so much.

As long as it is not seafood, Zhongli can eat any other new dish, no matter how it looks, and can give his suggestions without changing his expression.

This is truly every chef’s dream client.

the other side.

Seno, Tinari and Rhodes also finished their attempts.

Only Rhodes' expression was normal.

Both Seno and Tinari give people a feeling that is difficult to talk about.

"It can fill your stomach, but it tastes too hot and can easily cause diarrhea and other symptoms after consumption."

As Tinari took notes, his hands were on his stomach, his brows furrowed as he recorded his experience.

"It's related to the element of fire."

Sino gulped down a large cup of tea, and then his face suddenly changed. After a long while, he added: "Don't drink a lot of cold water after eating, otherwise the gastrointestinal reaction will be aggravated."

The more Xiangling listened, the more disappointed she became.

The last hope can only be placed on Rhodes, the only one here with an unchanged expression.

Moreover, Rhode not only finished the meal without any abnormal expression, but also ate the entire plate of embarrassing stir-fried fire slime in big mouthfuls, as if he was still not satisfied.

"Why are you looking at me like that?"

"You all don't have the element of fire, so you definitely won't be able to handle this."

Facing the strange looks from everyone, Rhode explained from the perspective of elemental science: "Fire slimes are natural elemental creatures. No matter how they are treated, some fire elemental power will remain in their bodies. In addition, Xiangling uses the most fiery and spicy stir-frying method to make them into dishes. After such a series of operations, the processed burning effect of the fire slimes will be amplified again. From the perspective of taste, this degree of heat is a very strong pain. If people who are not used to spicy food are surprised by this dish, their stomachs will really not be able to bear it."

Having said this.

Rhode turned his gaze back to Xiangling: "Xiangling has the Eye of the Fire Element God. I have been baptized by the fire element power under the grace of Achmar. So for the two of us, this heat is not only not a bother compared to the fire element power, but also makes our taste buds very comfortable."

Say it.

He spread his hands again and said, "Well, this is called individual difference. Not everyone can adapt to this strange taste."
