Dazzling Starlight

Yakan nodded and said, "Well... your analysis is very reasonable. Let's follow it up the mountain tomorrow."

"Yes, Master Yakan!" Walker Wu Song and others hurriedly nodded.

And Xiang En is very proud in his heart, because the hated and indomitable Liu Xingyao will definitely be beaten by Master Yakan this time.

"Hmph, the super pastry chef and the chef surnamed Liu, this trip to Mount Tai will be your cemetery!" Xiang En said grimly and lowly.

The next day is coming soon

When the sky was slightly bright, Liu Xingyao and his party had already arrived at the foot of Mount Tai.Although Mount Tai is only 1500 meters high, it is quite spectacular to stand at the foot of the mountain and look up.

Chapter [-] Climbing Up

At this time, Liu Xingyao and his party had come to the foot of Mount Tai, looking at Mount Tai in front of them, everyone couldn't help but sigh.

"Oh, although I have to pass by here every time I go back to my hometown, it's still quite spectacular to see Mount Tai from such a close distance."

There are few such high peaks in Japan. Although Mount Fuji in Japan has an altitude of more than 3000 meters, it is not as steep as the terrain of Mount Tai. Of course, standing at the foot of the mountain cannot be felt at all, and it is only when you start climbing. feel.

Although it is very early now, it takes a relatively fast speed to reach the top of the mountain under the dark.This place is not modern, there is no means of transportation, and there is no cable car to go from the middle of the mountain to the top of the mountain.In this Qing Dynasty, the only way to think of the top of the mountain was to climb up one step at a time.

"Okay, let's start. Try to get to the top of the mountain before it gets dark." Although Liu Xingyao said so, but if the three people are too weak to climb, then they will have to sleep on the mountain for a night.Taking this into consideration, in addition to the food, I also brought an iron pot and thick clothes to keep out the cold.

Everything was ready, and everyone finally began to climb Mount Tai.As soon as you enter the mountain, there are few steps, and there is a flat ground every other section. It is not exhausting to climb up, and it is very easy.At the same time, there are green trees on both sides of the stone steps, and the environment is beautiful.The air is also very good, plus it is morning time, putting it in with mist is like entering a fairyland on earth.

Liu Xingyao took Tian Suohui's and Erina's hands with his left and right hands and slowly climbed up.Although the next journey is very difficult, the two girls are very happy as long as they are with him like this.And Yao Niang saw Liu Xingyao holding the hands of the two women, but she was not happy.

After about an hour of climbing, the flat ground gradually became less and less, and the opposite slope became steeper and steeper.Liu Xingyao also clearly felt that the two women were beginning to feel overwhelmed, sweat on their faces, and some were out of breath.

Liu Xingyao looked up and couldn't see the end at all. It was estimated that it was less than 10/[-] of the distance, but he had no choice but to rest in place.

"Okay, let's take a rest here." Liu Xingyao said to everyone.

Hearing this, Gangbang Jie also put the big burden on his shoulders on the ground, and put the heavy steel bars aside. In fact, among these people, the most tiring mountain climbing is when the steel bars are released.Not only was he dragging more than ten kilograms of food and clothes on his back, he also had to carry a steel rod that weighed several kilograms.

"Master Xie, thank you for your hard work. Drink some water and eat beef jerky to replenish your physical strength." Liu Xingyao knew that he was tired and brought him food first.

The steel stick thanked and then picked up the water and food to eat, and then Liu Xingyao brought some food for Tian Suohui, Erina and Yao Niang, and the group sat on the ground eating food and drinking water to rest.

Suddenly, the steel rod untied and said, "I said Liu Xiaozi... don't you think it's strange?"

"Well... what do you mean?" Liu Xingyao looked at the steel rod solution in doubt.

The steel stick took a bite of the beef jerky while chewing, and said, "The group of people in the dark cooking world... I have heard before that they are a group of people who will not give up until they achieve their goals. Legend has it that the drawings of the kitchen utensils were taken away by us. Well, they didn't move at all like that."

Regarding this point, Liu Xingyao was actually somewhat doubtful in his heart.I ran into Yakan and Li Ke on the boat that day, and they didn't react to them!According to Yakan's character, if he knew that Liu Xingyao and others had a map of the legendary kitchen utensils, he would definitely do it.Yakan is not the kind of guy who gets scared just because he is alone.Well, if that's the case...that's just one point!That is, they knew Liu Xingyao and his party, and they didn't know about the legendary kitchen map, but they just happened to meet them.

But in this way, the rest of the dark cooking world has no movement... They gave up the legendary kitchen utensils?No, not at all!Legend has it that kitchenware is something everyone wants and they won't give up.Then such an analysis, the only possibility is that they are waiting for the most suitable time to snatch.

Liu Xingyao couldn't help but stood up and looked down the mountain, saying, "Maybe they forgot about this, but there's no need to worry about them too much. If you want to take the legend out of my hands... hum!"

What about the Five Tiger Stars?Don't be afraid!Then the group continued on the road... Only those who have climbed the mountain understand the hardships of mountain climbing. What it will be like to climb 1000 meters in a day, only those who have experienced it can know.

As dusk approached, Liu Xingyao and others were at an altitude of about 1100 meters, but Erina, Tiansuohui and Yao Niang were too tired to walk, so they could only find a place to rest for a night before leaving. .

Chapter [-] Rest for a night

Sure enough, it was almost as expected by Liu Xingyao. Although he started to climb Mount Tai early in the morning until it was almost dark, he could only climb two-thirds of the way.It was already dark, and it was impossible to continue climbing. The rugged mountain road and unclear vision must be very dangerous, and Yao Niang, Tian Suohui, and Erina were already very tired and needed a good night's rest.

At night at the top of the mountain, the temperature will drop a lot and the wind will become particularly strong.If you only sleep in ordinary places, there must be no way. At night, the temperature on the top of the mountain is almost 10 degrees lower than the upper and lower levels, but it is fortunate that Gangbangjie found a cave.

A group of people came to the cave, and the steel rod quickly found the wood to raise a fire at the entrance of the cave, and a fire was raised in the cave.The entrance of the cave was lit, and everyone unexpectedly found that the cave was not so dirty, and there were some 760-burned sawdust beside it.It is not difficult to see that this cave was inhabited not long ago.

"Oh, we are lucky. We found such a good cave at this time. It seems that I can sleep well tonight." Gangbang Jie looked at the cave and smiled, and then found out that there are people living in the cave. A large abandoned wok and some worn quilts.

Although these things are not good things on weekdays, they come in handy at this time.

Liu Xingyao used the broken cotton wool in the cave to lay it flat on the ground, then lay a layer of straw, and finally lay it on top with a clean sheet. In this way, the simple floor covering is ready, and then remove the back from the steel rod. In the big bag he was wearing, he took out four quilts and put them on.In this way, there is also a place to rest tonight.Although the temporary paved space is not very spacious, the three girls will be enough to sleep together.

The three girls, Yao Niang, Tian Suohui, and Erina, were already too tired to sit on the paved floor to rest.Among them, Erina's feet have been swollen several times... Even when she practiced at Shilin Temple, she has done this. Today's climb of more than [-] meters is really torture for this young lady.However, being able to be with Liu Xingyao, no matter how long and steep the road is, is not in the heart of beauty.Of course, Erina thought so too.

After Liu Xingyao cleaned the abandoned large iron pot at the entrance of the cave, he filled it with water and heated it to wash the feet of the three women with hot water.After walking for a day, washing your feet in hot water will definitely benefit your feet and body.

After doing all this, Liu Xingyao filled the mountain spring water with the iron pot he brought, and then slowly boiled it again.In the process of boiling the water, the dumpling skins were made from the flour brought by the steel stick, and then the wild vegetables picked along the way and a little pork belly were mixed to make the meat filling.Apparently the dish to make tonight is dumplings.Although I didn't bring any bowls and chopsticks, it was not difficult for Liu Xingyao.

Liu Xingyao took out a sharp kitchen knife and changed the wood into a small wooden bowl and wooden chopsticks.Not only solved the problem of tableware, but also used the tableware made of the trees on Mount Tai to eat, and there was a unique fragrance in it.

……

However, when Liu Xingyao and others were making dumplings, at this time in the middle of Mount Tai, Yakan and his party were also looking for a cave to rest and eat.

"Master Yakan, this is my godson made with game and wild vegetables from Mount Tai, please taste it." Walker Wu Song brought the cooked dishes to Yakan first.

Yakan took the bowl of dumplings and ate one of them with chopsticks.

"En... Wu Song, your pasta cooking skills have obviously improved. Yes, these dumplings are indeed delicious." Yakan nodded and praised.

Walker Wu Song was instantly overjoyed when he received Yakan's praise, and hurriedly said, "Master Yakan is too modest...but compared to you, I am still far behind."

Xiang En, who followed Wu Song, also smiled when he saw the corner of his mouth, and then cautiously stepped forward and said, "Master Yakan... Now, according to the situation, you can easily get the legendary kitchen utensils before your turn tomorrow."

While eating dumplings and drinking spirits, Yakan heard Xiang En say this, and said: "That's not necessarily... The strength of the special pastry chef is not a vain name, and now it seems that the legendary kitchen utensils must be sealed in the temple on the top of the mountain. Compared with the legendary kitchen utensils that Guangzhou already knows, it must be protected by a group of chefs from the bright world. It is not so easy to get it."

Xiang En's eyes suddenly turned, and he said, "Wouldn't it be better? Let the group of special pastry chefs be the pioneers to find out the situation ahead, and then we will definitely be able to get the legendary kitchen utensils."

Xiang En's brain is very bad, and the meaning is obviously that he is going to wait for Liu Xingyao and others to get the legendary kitchen utensils after they are exhausted and then come in.It was her usual vile meter.

Li Ke was immediately displeased when he heard this, and said, "This kind of method that is not aboveboard is not used by the masters of Asia."
