Chapter 1464 - Ah, I am bleeding all over the floor! (2 in 1) (1/2)
In TV or movies, after tasting food, gourmets would make all kinds of faces before using their rich experience to list out the ingredients and the way the dish was prepared.
However, Song Shuhang was not a gourmet. Therefore, he could only write down everything that the secret appraisal technique had told him. This way, he was able to write down the main ingredients and the supplementary spices and ingredients on paper. And if Song Shuhang really wanted to, he could even write down the name of the ‘world’ where the three main fish ingredients came from, the age of the fish, and even the quant.i.ty of spices and supplementary ingredients used. However, if he were to list down the details of the dish to that degree, he would no longer be listing down ingredients, but the recipe instead. Moreover, his match with Fairy Rosy Cloud was just focused on the ingredients used.
Therefore, there was no need to be so detailed.
Song Shuhang’s hand moved swiftly. Despite this, his handwriting was still neat and tidy.
“Done.” He put down his pen and raised his head to look at Fairy Rosy Cloud.
After that, Song Shuhang crossed his arms again, and stared at Fairy Rosy Cloud, causing pressure to come bearing down on her. Increasing one’s momentum and putting pressure on the opponent were key parts of any compet.i.tion. “…” Fairy Rosy Cloud. Can one really infer the ingredients that Immortal Fairy Bie Xue used in the fish meal by eating so sloppily? Moreover, Profound Sage Tyrannical Song hasn’t even tasted the soup, right? Fairy Rosy Cloud licked her lips, and said, “Have you given up already, Senior Tyrannical Song?” “Given up? Of course not. You should pay more attention to your situation. I’ve already written down all of the main fish ingredients, but you haven’t even picked up your pen. If you continue to drag things on like this, you will lose.” Song Shuhang’s eyes lowered slightly, making others feel like they were releasing a strange light.
After seeing Song Shuhang’s reaction, Fairy Rosy Cloud felt a little fl.u.s.tered.
Profound Sage Tyrannical Song is too calm. What is his trump card?
Does he really have the means to defeat my G.o.d’s Tongue? The more Fairy Rosy Cloud thought about it, the more of a mess her thoughts became. Suddenly, she shook her head vigorously. No need to panic. I possess the G.o.d’s Tongue. In terms of tasting, Profound Sage Tyrannical Song is definitely not my opponent. Moreover, with the way he was eating, it would be strange if he could infer the ingredients used in the immortal dish. He must be bluffing.
Then, Fairy Rosy Cloud lowered her head, not daring to look directly at Profound Sage Tyrannical Song
There wasn’t anything that could be done about this. There were not many people who dared to look directly at Profound Sage Tyrannical Song’s eyes in the entire universe.
Fairy Rosy Cloud pushed her G.o.d’s Tongue talent to the limit. The ingredients and spices that were used in the dish emerged in her mind one by one. Fairy Rosy Cloud thought to herself, Anyway, this truly is worthy of being a dish that Fairy Bie Xue prepared. Even with the G.o.d’s Tongue a.n.a.lyzing the ingredients of the immortal dish, listing down the unique flavors, and materializing them in my mind, there are still three kinds of ingredients that I’ve never heard of nor tasted before. Are they part of Immortal Fairy Bie Xue’s secret recipe, or are they some newly researched ingredients? After a while, she opened her eyes. That should be enough! Even though she couldn’t list down the names of the three ingredients, she believed her answers to be good enough to let her win against Profound Sage Tyrannical Song. Fairy Rosy Cloud stretched out her hand, and quickly started writing on her paper. Her handwriting was full of magnificence and was quite stylish. “Done.” Fairy Rosy Cloud put down her pen and blew lightly on the paper.
With the two contestants having finished writing, the disciple of the Southern Eternal Sword Sect that was in charge of the third event went to take the sheets of paper from Song Shuhang and Fairy Rosy Cloud.
Then, he put them into a projector.
The answers that were written down by Song Shuhang and Fairy Rosy Cloud were projected on a wall, and all of the pract.i.tioners in the Immortal Feast venue could see their answers. “Fairy Rosy Cloud will definitely win with her G.o.d’s Tongue.” “Profound Sage Tyrannical Song didn’t look like he even tasted the immortal dish; he merely gobbled it up. I’m already looking forward to the results.” “I really want to see Profound Sage Tyrannical Song get pregnant.” “Same here.” In the meantime, there were many gourmets at the Immortal Feast venue who had also tasted a portion of the ‘fish meal’. They, too, were speculating about the ingredients used in the immortal dish, preparing to verify their guesses with Song Shuhang and Fairy Rosy Cloud’s answers.
The projection screen fully expanded. On the left was Song Shuhang’s neat handwriting, while on the right was Fairy Rosy Cloud’s stylish handwriting. A senior gourmet said, “The three main kinds of fish… were all correctly guessed by Profound Sage Tyrannical Song and Fairy Rosy Cloud.” “Eh? There were three main ingredients in this dish? I thought that there was only one.” In the Immortal Feast venue, some of the guests were surprised.
Not every guest was a gourmet. Many of the guests only felt that the dish was delicious, and that it was worthy of something that Immortal Fairy Bie Xue had prepared. However, they didn’t expect that the dish was made from three different fish ingredients. After looking at Song Shuhang’s and Fairy Rosy Cloud’s answers, the guests felt the fish meal in their hands become even grander. Another old glutton said, “Besides that, there were six different spices, and both Profound Sage Tyrannical Song and Fairy Rosy Cloud were able to write them down correctly.” “There were six? I only tasted three.”
“I tasted four, and there was one flavor that I was unsure of.”
“It’s the same for me. I only tasted four.” While talking, they couldn’t help but look at Profound Sage Tyrannical Song. Profound Sage Tyrannical Song was actually a.n.a.lyzing the dish when he was gobbling it down? Song Shuhang smiled slightly and maintained his overbearing posture. The fellow daoists of the Nine Provinces Number One Group were also a little surprised. Thrice Reckless Mad Saber said, “How does little friend Shuhang have so much great knowledge on immortal dishes?” Northern River’s Loose Cultivator said, “No matter how much of a genius he is, there were many ingredients used in this immortal dish that I haven’t even heard of. Could little friend Shuhang have received immortal chef training?”
Young Master Phoenix Slayer said, “That should be impossible, right?” Although Song Shuhang had been in contact with Immortal Fairy Bie Xue, they had never heard of Immortal Fairy Bie Xue teaching Shuhang the way of immortal chefs. Su Clan’s Sixteen caught a bright red spot on the sleeve of Song Shuhang’s right hand. After seeing this, the corners of her mouth rose as she knew the answer.
However, she couldn’t talk about it at this moment.
“As for the rest of the ingredients… I only tasted six different kinds, and there was one kind that I didn’t recognize. Fairy Rosy Cloud was actually able to taste as many as 11 kinds. As expected of the G.o.d’s Tongue, a talent that’s desired by all fellow daoists who are gourmets.” “Wait, Profound Sage Tyrannical Song’s paper has three more ingredients! It has three more than Fairy Rosy Cloud’s!” “How can that be?”
“Were there really three more? Those couldn’t be some random scribbles from Profound Sage Tyrannical Song, right?” “How is this possible?!” The most surprised one was Fairy Rosy Cloud herself.
She stared at the three ingredients on Song Shuhang’s paper in disbelief. Those were flavors that I couldn’t even recognize, yet Profound Sage Tyrannical Song was able to write them down! Could it be that Profound Sage Tyrannical Song also has the G.o.d’s Tongue? “Are Profound Sage Tyrannical Song’s answers reliable?”
“What do you think? All of the other answers that he wrote down were correct. Why would he write down those three ingredients if they weren’t there?”
As this was said, all of the guests got a bad feeling in their hearts. Profound Sage Tyrannical Song had such a high level of accomplishment in ‘tasting food? The disciple of the Southern Eternal Sword Sect in charge of the third even asked, “Do we have to send the answers to the kitchen so that Immortal Fairy Bie Xue can check them?” At this time, a short-haired fairy maiden appeared, and announced, “Immortal Fairy has already taken a look at the answers. In this round, Senior Tyrannical Song is the winner.”
Even Immortal Fairy Bie Xue had confirmed it… The answers given by Profound Sage Tyrannical Song were correct.
Fairy Rosy Cloud was stunned, and said, “My G.o.d’s Tongue was defeated.”
No, that isn’t right. My G.o.d’s Tongue did not lose! I lost because I did not have enough knowledge. The G.o.d’s Tongue had clearly been able to a.n.a.lyze and detect those three ingredients, but it was me who was unable to match their flavors with the ingredients.
Fairy Rosy Cloud murmured, “This is only the first round, and there are three more to go. It will be enough as long as I can win two rounds.”
She raised her head, her eyes burning with pa.s.sion. “Senior Tyrannical Song, time is running out. Let’s continue with the second dis.h.!.+”
Even if she lost, it didn’t matter. In the worst case, she would get pregnant once again. Moreover, there would still be three other people after her who could challenge Senior Tyrannical Song. No matter what happens today, I have to do my best to make Senior Tyrannical Song drink some Mother-Child River water!
After thinking up to this point, Fairy Rosy Cloud managed to calm down-her will seemed to have been strengthened as well. “Fairy Rosy Cloud, your state of mind is very good.” Song Shuhang’s gaze seemed to have the ability to see through people’s hearts, appearing to be extremely deep. Fairy Rosy Cloud firmly said, “I thank Senior Song for guidance, but I won’t lose again.” Song Shuhang nodded slightly. F*ck, when did I provide her with any guidance? Deep down, he was dumbfounded.
The second dish was a shrimp immortal dish. There were 10 shrimps in total, with each of them having a different appearance. The 10 shrimps were arranged in a circle, being plated to look like a sunflower…
Fairy Rosy Cloud thought to herself, This time, I will definitely win. Shrimp ingredients are one of my specialties. While she was in thought, she raised her head to look at Senior Tyrannical Song. Then, she saw him still eating sloppily. He would bite three to four prawns at once, and then swallow the sh.e.l.l with the meat still inside. “…” Fairy Rosy Cloud. The 10 shrimps were just three to four mouthfuls for him.
After eating, Profound Sage Tyrannical Song picked up the pen, and quickly started writing on a piece of paper. This time, Fairy Rosy Cloud hadn’t even gotten to start eating, but Profound Sage Tyrannical Song had already handed over the results. “Done.” Profound Sage Tyrannical Song returned to his overbearing posture, focusing his gaze on Fairy Rosy Cloud. Fairy Rosy Cloud felt uncomfortable from being stared at so intently. Two minutes later, Fairy Rosy Cloud finished tasting all 10 shrimps. She then pushed her G.o.d’s Tongue to the limit. This time, she was able to perfectly a.n.a.lyze each of the 10 shrimps in the dish. She was very familiar with each ingredient. She took her paper, and wrote down all of the ingredients that she had recognized. “Done.” Fairy Rosy Cloud put down her pen and exhaled lightly. This time, she stared right back at Profound Sage Tyrannical Song. “In this round, I’m definitely going to win.” “Let’s wait and see.” The corners of Song Shuhang’s mouth rose. Soft Feather said, “Sure enough, Senior Song really looks just like a villain right now.” Thrice Reckless Mad Saber added, “And it’s the kind of villain that can’t survive more than three episodes.” “Fellow Daoist Thrice Reckless seems to have a lot of experience,” Su Clan’s Seven said. “I guess that’s because you never get past the second episode.” “…” Thrice Reckless Mad Saber. Can you not hurt me like this, Seven? Just like before, the disciple of the Eternal Sword Sect placed Song Shuhang’s and Fairy Rosy Cloud’s answer sheet on a projector and projected them onto a screen.
Foodies and gourmets checked the ingredients on the two notes with their own answers.
The fellow daoists who didn’t know much about food directly compared the answers between the two sheets. “This time, the number of ingredients listed down by Senior Tyrannical Song and Fairy Rosy Cloud is equal.” “However, one of the shrimp ingredients that Profound Sage Tyrannical Song has written down is different from that of Fairy Rosy Cloud!” Someone with keen eyes discovered this.
Someone added, “Also, he has written down a vegetable ingredient that’s different from Fairy Rosy Cloud’s.” Fairy Rosy Cloud was also checking the two papers. After reading Senior Tyrannical Song’s answers, the complete a.s.surance she had fell by half.
