The Spirit of Gourmet

Chapter 26 Flower Eater

"Wow! This is delicious!"

Zhao Qian held the egg yolk pastry in both hands and took a bite. She couldn't help but exclaimed, closed her eyes and felt the sweetness lingering between her lips and teeth.

"Buy~"

Bubu, who was standing by, saw this scene, swallowed his saliva, and called out anxiously twice. Seeing that Zhao Qian did not respond, he puffed out his cheeks, moved forward, and put his cold ice crystal horns against her cheeks.

"hiss…"

Zhao Qian shuddered and quickly came to her senses. Seeing Bubu's resentful face, she smiled awkwardly and handed him another egg yolk pastry.

"Here you go."

Bubu got what he wanted and took a bite, and soon his eyes lit up.

"Buy~"

This egg yolk pastry is super delicious!
Liu Suyun, who finally tasted Qin Lang's cooking, was amazed.

"This snack made by Xiao Qin is really delicious!"

Next to him, Zhao Chuan had already finished the first egg yolk pastry and was attacking the second one. He stopped and looked up when he heard this.

"Yeah! I told you everything." He snorted with a smug look on his face.

He was the first to discover the delicious food made by Qin Lang!

Liu Suyun rolled her eyes at him and then said, "No wonder you, an old man, stole Xiao Qin's dinner."

Zhao Chuan: “…”

No, is this really impossible to get over?
"I'm glad you like it." Looking at the feedback from the three people and one spirit, Qin Lang smiled and said, "I have guests, so I'll leave first."

"Okay, let's come and visit next time!" Liu Suyun watched Qin Lang leave with a smile, and ate the egg yolk pastry in her hand slowly.

The next moment, his eyes became sharp, and he snapped down Zhao Chuan's evil hand that was reaching for the last egg yolk pastry.

"Old man, you've eaten two and you still want a third?"

"Ah..." Zhao Chuan, who was caught in the act, smiled awkwardly, "I was just worried that you couldn't eat anymore..."

"If you can't finish it, you can save it for later." Liu Suyun glared at Zhao Chuan, then turned to look at Zhao Qian and quickly put on a loving smile.

"Qianqian, do you still want this?"

Zhao Qian hesitated for a moment.

After finishing an egg yolk pastry, she was indeed a little unsatisfied.

But let's leave it to grandma.

After making a decision, she smiled and shook her head, “Grandma, you eat.”

"Hey, my dear granddaughter!" Liu Suyun's smile grew even wider as she carefully put away the last egg yolk pastry. "By the way, Qianqian, how long do you plan to stay here this time?"

"Half a month." Zhao Qian thought for a moment, "I plan to visit the food recommenders in Dongxia City and see if I can get a food recommender badge."

"If you want to open a second star vein in the Royal Spirit Chef Association, you need to obtain seven first-level food recommender badges or one first-level spirit master emblem."

“I’m working towards this goal.”

The Spirit Masters are also assessors of the Royal Spirit Chef Association. Unlike the Food Recommenders, they are not assessed on cooking skills, but on the fighting ability of food spirits. After being recognized, they can obtain the corresponding token - the Spirit Master Badge.

The Royal Spirit Chef Association set two different conditions for activating star veins, taking into account the different development directions of different Royal Spirit Chefs.

The Royal Spirit Chef who is not good at fighting but has a high talent for cooking can open subsequent star veins by collecting food recommender badges.

The Royal Spirit Chef, who is good at fighting but not so talented in cooking, can open the Star Vein starting from the second Star Vein by collecting the Spirit Master Badge.

Spirit Masters are also divided into three levels: Level 1, Level 2, and Level 3. The food spirits sent by Level 1 Spirit Masters are usually between two and three stars. Even if you choose a food spirit with completely restraining attributes, you still need to be at least Level 15 to have a chance of passing the Level 1 Spirit Master's assessment.

Zhao Qian prefers fighting against spirit eaters, but her current strength is not enough to obtain a spirit master badge, so she plans to do both.

Hearing that Zhao Qian could stay in Dongxia City for half a month, Zhao Chuan and his wife looked at each other and smiles immediately appeared on their faces.

On the other side, Qin Lang returned to his home and as soon as he entered the kitchen, he saw Cao Dongdong preparing food on the chopping board.

The other party's movements were still a bit unfamiliar, and he needed to look at the contents recorded in the notebook from time to time, but Qin Lang stood by and watched, and there was nothing wrong with Cao Dongdong's operation.

A batch of egg yolk pastries came out of the oven. Qin Lang tasted one and gave his opinion, then asked Cao Dongdong to make the next batch.

The remaining ones will not be wasted, and all eggs will be accepted.

When it came to the third batch, Qin Lang tasted it and nodded slightly.

"Okay."

"Finally reached the standard." Cao Dongdong wiped the sweat from his forehead and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Although he had only done it three times, because of his concentration, he was able to completely put aside the notebook and remember all the details in his mind.

As he ate the egg yolk pastry that he had made himself, which was almost the same as the one Qin Lang made, a happy smile suddenly appeared on his face.

"It's three o'clock in the afternoon." Qin Lang glanced at the time. "It should be in time to visit the food recommender now."

"Now...now?!" Cao Dongdong was startled and the egg yolk pastry in his hand almost fell to the ground.

"That's right." Qin Lang nodded as a matter of course, "I taught you this snack so that you can pass the test of the food recommender."

"Now that you've learned it, why don't you go?"

"You don't want to be a Royal Spirit Chef anymore?"

"Of course I do..." Cao Dongdong said with a troubled look on his face, "But can I really do this?"

A few hours ago, he was still an apprentice who couldn't even cook, but now he can pass the food recommender's assessment and become a royal chef?
"Are you not confident in the egg yolk pastry I taught you?" Qin Lang smiled.

Taking a look at the egg yolk pastry in his hand and savoring the lingering taste in his mouth, Cao Dongdong's eyes quickly became firm.

"Okay, I'll go!"

"But..." He then scratched his head, "Does Dongxia City have a test for snack food recommenders?"

"Of course." Qin Lang nodded calmly.

When he was selecting the food recommenders before, he also wrote down the general information of all the food recommenders.

If there was no food recommender in Dongxia City who could pass the assessment, he would not be able to teach Cao Dongdong how to make this egg yolk pastry.

"That person should be the least popular food recommender in Dongxia City." Qin Lang smiled, "A first-level food recommender, Song Hui."

"The other party's assessment content is mainly based on desserts."

"Because there are relatively few Royal Spirit Chefs who specialize in desserts, the assessment content is often more relaxed and there are not strict restrictions on the subject matter."

"If everything goes well, the egg yolk pastry will be enough to pass the other party's test."

By the way, Qin Lang also had some matters to attend to.

In Dongxia City, Song Hui is known as the "flower eater" and has a very deep research on flowers.

In the second landscape painting of the Traveler's Book, the most distinctive thing is the four-colored flower.

Qin Lang planned to ask Song Hui to see if he could find any clues.
