Chapter 143 Hot Pot
Chapter 143 Hot Pot
"Why did you come to see me? You finally want to discuss with me the ins and outs of hating female insects?"
Qi Shan rolled his eyes and said, "Of course not. If I have time to discuss whether female insects are annoying or not, I might as well read a few more books."
"Tsk~" Youpu looked at him and asked, what are you doing here?
Qi Shan opened his backpack and opened his blue eyes wide, "Youpu, let's have hot pot."
"Hot pot? What kind of hot pot? A pot roasted on fire?"
"Don't ask, just sit and wait for me to do it." Qi Shan pushed Youpu down on the sofa, "Wait."
"Don't burn down my kitchen" Youpu's body trembled.
"No, how could it be?"
Youpu's mouth twitched: "You just burned the automatic furnace I made the day before yesterday."
"How can you blame me?" Qi Shan blinked innocently, "I did what you said. I injected my spiritual power into the furnace and the furnace burned automatically, but you didn't tell me that the flames burned so fiercely."
The flames were so fierce that they went straight to the ceiling. The stove was burned by its own energy. Now there is a black mass on the ceiling. If the material of the kitchen was not difficult to ignite, the kitchen would have to be rebuilt by now.
Youpu covered his face. How could he have thought that Qi Shan's mental power purity was so ridiculously high? He thought that the purity of his mental power was among the best among male insects, but he didn't expect that one day he would be suppressed by a small insect cub.
"Don't worry, I will control myself." Qi Shan waved his hand and ran to the kitchen happily.
Youpu's kitchen was modified by him personally. All items can be controlled by mental power. He unconsciously cultivates his mental power while cooking. Of course, it is not so friendly to insects with poor mental control or insufficient strength.
For Qi Shan, this kitchen is simply a paradise. It is a fully automated kitchen built specifically for him.
He didn't have enough strength to begin with, and cooking is the job of female insects. Even if he wanted to cook at home, he couldn't do it. First, he couldn't reach the stove, and second, he couldn't lift the kitchen utensils because they were too heavy.
But Youpu’s kitchen is different. The kitchen utensils have been modified and can be controlled with mental power, which makes them very light and smooth to use. Oh, it’s mental power.
You don't need to use your hands at all, and you can control the entire kitchen with your mental power. It feels like cooking with your mind. It's so wonderful.
Qi Shan hummed a song, thinking about spending money, wondering if Youpu was willing to sell the kitchen utensils to him, or even spending contribution points.
Among male insects, contribution value is higher than insect currency value.
Otto always transferred contribution points to him from time to time, but he had no place to spend them.
Unlike Qi Shan's good mood, You Pu covered his chest with his hands and secretly prayed to the insect god to save his poor kitchen.
Kitchen tools are unique and difficult to modify.
Qi Shan's spiritual power is too pure, and an ordinary small mistake would be a disaster for the poor kitchen.
For example, if the knife accidentally slips, other male insects will fall to the ground, but if Youpu controls it, it will fly out. However, if Qishan makes a control error, the knife will go straight into the wall and cannot be pulled out.
It is possible to accidentally kill a person along the way.
Hearing the clatter of pots and pans in the kitchen, Youpu didn't dare to look back, for fear that his heart would ache if he did.
As he was thinking, he fell asleep on the sofa. He had an irregular schedule and often stayed up all night doing experiments and had to go to classes during the day. He would feel sleepy as soon as he stopped thinking.
The sounds in the kitchen gradually became harmonious, with the sounds of cutting vegetables and boiling in the pot interweaving.
The overbearing fragrance penetrated Youpu's nose and woke him up from his sweet dream.
"Hmm...what's that smell?" Youpu rubbed his hazy eyes and walked towards the kitchen following the smell. "What are you doing?"
"Hot pot, a double-flavored hot pot. It took me a long time to find the ingredients," Qi Shan said. The Zerg used only a few kinds of seasonings. In order to find peppers and other ingredients, he and the system spent a long time collecting them.
The pot is divided into two sides. The milky white soup base is rolling, and the rich fragrance attracts insects. The bright red and spicy soup base looks scary, and the rising hot steam makes it impossible for the insects to open their eyes.
I couldn't help sneezing when I smelled the pungent fragrance, and saliva was secreted in my mouth.
Use your mental power to move the pot steadily to the living room.
"Try"
Qi Shan handed him a pair of tongs, a soup spoon and a bowl. The Zerg had never used chopsticks, so they could only use a soup spoon instead. The chopsticks he used were customized by himself.
The iron pot is boiling and the food is rolling up and down in the pot. It is ready to eat.
Youpu couldn't wait to fish out two bird eggs, stuffed them into his mouth, and immediately spat them out. "Hiss—"
"Slow down, it's very hot." Qi Shan took two pieces of meat and put them in a bowl to cool, then stood up to get something.
Youpu ate an egg in clear soup and chewed it carefully. It tasted good, but he always felt like something was missing. Looking at the bubbling red oil, he scooped up a spoonful of meat, blew it cool, and put it in his mouth.
The spiciness made his eyes tear up, and he was reluctant to spit out the meat in his mouth.
Qi Shan put the milk in front of him. He raised the cup and took a gulp, then took a breath and said, "It tastes good, but my tongue hurts."
Of course, Qi Shan doesn’t know how to fry peppers, and the Zerg peppers are the kind that will hurt your skin if you touch them.
It was a low-end hotpot, but Youpu couldn’t put his chopsticks down while eating it.
Qi Shan cut up half of the dragon's flesh and filled a full basket.
Seeing Youpu wanting to eat spicy food, he said helplessly: "If you can't eat spicy food, you can eat the clear soup."
"Hiss - although it's very spicy, the white one is too light in taste." Youps eats the meat so hard that his lips turn red from the spiciness.
"Is it bland?" Qi Shan found it just right for himself.
"It's bland, too bland, so bland that I can't taste it. But the meat is delicious, without the usual fishy smell." Youpu nodded.
It is normal that the meat has no fishy smell after being processed, but there is a way to solve the problem of the clear soup being too bland. Qi Shan stood up.
"You, hiss, where are you going?" Youpu's vision was blurred by the spiciness, and he vaguely saw the insect next to him stand up.
“Get the seasoning”
"what?"
Qi Shan prepared a bowl of mixed seasoning, which was so strong in flavor that he didn't want to touch it just by looking at it. He poured a spoonful of clear soup on it and the sauce was black.
"Come and try how it tastes." He placed the dish in front of Youpu.
Youpu was so spicy that he was in a daze. After a while, he looked at the black dish and said hesitantly, "Can I eat this?"
"Yes, try it." Qi Shan picked up a potato and dipped it in the sauce.
Yup followed his movements, scooped a spoonful of meat, poured it into the sauce, and covered a piece of meat with the sauce.
Qi Shan took a bite and found it extremely salty. He couldn't help wondering if there was too much salt in it. "Youpu, take less, it's a bit..."
Youpu put the meat into his mouth. The different seasonings wrapped around the meat aroma, and the mellow sauce hit the numb taste buds, removing the burning effect of the pepper on the mouth, but retaining the rich taste. He couldn't help but widen his eyes: "Delicious!"
"...Okay." Qi Shan realized belatedly that the female insect's sense of taste was as horrible as finding meat in salt, and although the male insect was a little better, it was not much better.
"What did you say?" Youpu ate one spoonful after another, and took the time to look up at Qi Shan as a sign of respect for the chef.
