Chapter 360: Cooking Soup
"Can this Suzaku be used?"
As Xu Fu spoke, he moved the hand holding the beast soul forward.
Xu Fu was not very interested in the beast soul. Firstly, his physical body was already strong enough, and Xu Fu did not think he needed to divide his energy to cultivate the beast soul. What's more, he had never learned any related skills.
As for the second point, Xu Fu was very satisfied with the Qiankun bag that Ma Yueming had just given him. Since someone had given him such a treasure, he thought he should reciprocate the gift.
Ma Yueming repeatedly declined Xu Fu's generosity. To her, being able to let Zhuque eat the sea dragon meat was enough. After all, it was the sea dragon that Xu Fu had killed, so she couldn't ask for more.
Seeing that Ma Yueming was unwilling to accept it, Xu Fu did not force her and took the beast soul back into its meridians.
Seeing that Xu Fu did not ask any more questions, Ma Yueming said goodbye and left, wanting Xu Fu to have a rest so that he could attend the banquet later.
Xu Fu agreed, but he didn't feel tired at all. Seeing that it was getting late, he simply walked straight towards Suzaku's kitchen.
Xu Fu remembered that outside the kitchen was a stone table and stone benches, which was quite spacious. If a banquet was to be held, it would be the best choice.
Before Xu Fu got closer, he noticed that there was a busy scene outside the kitchen.
I saw a man holding a big pot in one hand and walking to an open space. The size of the pot was comparable to the one in the Guanhai Tower.
The man made a few hand gestures with his other hand, and a flash of light appeared. A circle of dirt and rocks quickly rose up on the ground, which turned out to be the shape of a stove.
Almost at the same time, a fireball shot into the "stove" from the side. Without any firewood, the fire burned fiercely out of thin air.
Xu Fu turned his head and saw a dozen fireballs floating above the other person's head.
Under that man's control, these fireballs moved under the stone tables in an orderly manner like a group of nimble mice.
When the female cultivator holding the big pot placed it flat, a stream of clear water fell from the sky.
Another person was seen holding a palm-sized green gourd, suspended in the air. After filling the cauldron with half a pot of water, he turned the water column into a torrent and cleaned the tables and benches.
In addition to these, Xu Fu discovered that there were also people who used swordsmanship to cut vegetables and water magic to wash fruits and vegetables...
Various magic tricks emerged one after another, which dazzled Xu Fu.
This is not cooking at all! In the eyes of others, this is clearly a magic trick!
Xu Fu suddenly thought of Zhu Dayou. The dishes these people cooked were very similar to Zhu Dayou, and they were all very pleasing to the eye.
"Teacher Xu Fu!"
Xu Fu was still in a daze when Cheng Xiang came out of the house carrying a pile of bowls. Seeing Xu Fu standing not far away, she hurriedly greeted him.
When the people who were busy here heard that Xu Fu was coming, they all stopped what they were doing and came over.
In less than a day, Xu Fu's heroic deeds in killing the sea dragon had spread among the students. In addition, Xu Fu had previously refined beauty pills for the students of Suzaku. In the hearts of the students, Teacher Xu Fu was simply a savior comparable to a god. Coupled with his handsome appearance, Xu Fu had become the object of admiration of countless Suzaku students.
For the people in the kitchen, knowing that Teacher Xu Fu was going to bring sea dragon meat to cook for them personally, they were all very excited and worked very attentively and efficiently, so much so that no one noticed that Xu Fu was watching there for a long time.
The people working in the kitchen are actually all Suzaku students, but their families are not well-off, so cooking for Suzaku is considered a part-time job, which allows them to practice and earn some money to supplement their family income. Many spiritual academies use this method to help students who are in financial difficulties, and it has become a good story.
After Xu Fu exchanged a few words with the students, he asked everyone to continue with their work. He then went directly to a clean stone table, took out a large piece of sea dragon meat from his Qiankun bag and placed it on the table.
At this time, the table had already heated up, and the sea dragon meat that Xu Fu had frozen began to slowly melt.
Xu Fu quickly called the student who had been cutting vegetables with the sword over, handed the long sword given by Zhang Kun to her, and asked her to cut the meat into small pieces.
Xu Fu himself threw a five-foot-long sea dragon tail directly into the big pot.
The students who were busy in the kitchen were all shocked to see Xu Fu's "rough" cooking method.
“Is this ninth-grade spiritual flesh?”
Many people were wondering, if that was the case, then it seemed that Master Xu Fu did not take the sea dragon meat seriously enough?
Compared to ordinary dishes, the students of Suzaku are better at cooking spiritual food, and there are even teachers who specialize in teaching students how to make these.
Different ingredients require different cooking methods to fully stimulate the spiritual energy in them. This is a very complex science, and many subtle details will have a huge impact on the final presentation of the spiritual food.
Although Xu Fu's cooking method was crude, no one stopped him. After all, no one had learned how to cook ninth-grade ingredients, and they didn't know how to cook them properly. After all, for most people, they might not see ninth-grade spiritual objects in their lifetime, let alone make spiritual food from them. Even the teacher who taught everyone how to cook spiritual food probably had no experience in this area.
However, everyone had unconditional trust in Xu Fu at this time. Since Teacher Xu Fu did this, there must be a reason for doing so, and they did not dare to speculate on the deeper meaning behind it.
Xu Fu didn't know what these students were thinking, but he did have his own reasons for doing so.
simple!
That's it.
There are so many people in the Zhuque courtyard, and cooking for them is definitely not an easy task. How can everyone in this courtyard taste the taste of the sea dragon? Xu Fu thinks that besides roasting, the best way is to stew it.
Seeing the snake's tail cooking in the pot and the sea dragon meat being sliced there, it seemed that there was nothing he could do, so he simply grabbed a fruit and sat on a stone bench nearby to eat it.
If these fourth-grade spiritual fruits were sold outside, each one could be sold for a good price, but in the Suzaku Upper Spiritual Academy, they are just embellishments at the banquet.
Not long after, students began to arrive one after another.
Here, there was no distinction between high and low. Everyone, regardless of whether they were students or teachers, high or middle class, sat anywhere they wanted. Only a slightly larger table in the middle was empty.
There were seven stone benches neatly placed on both sides of the table.
Except for those who were still busy, all those who sat down, without exception, were staring at Xu Fu.
Women are like this. If they are left staring at a handsome man alone, they will most likely feel embarrassed. But if a group of women gather together, they will not have such concerns at all, as they are all afraid of missing a single glance.
Being stared at by so many people, Xu Fu felt embarrassed to continue sitting there.
He had no choice but to pretend to walk to the cauldron, pick up a big spoon as tall as him, and stir the cauldron aimlessly.
