C169 The Old Man's Cooking

Xiao Jian slowly walked to a boulder not far away from the old man. He stopped and looked at it. He looked at the happy expression on his face. The corner of his mouth was wide open, and his old face was like a blooming chrysanthemum. Of course, Xiao Jian did not dare to say what he felt in his heart.

Just based on the fact that he was in this desolate forest. . . Devil Beast was everywhere! And there was such a leisurely mood as he stood beside the canyon! The old man who was fishing with a pole could. . . Was he an ordinary person? Just like telling you that Meng Fei had lice on his head, can you believe it?

Because Xiao Jian was on the old man's side. Therefore, he couldn't see the old man's face clearly. However, Xiao Jian didn't have any intention of looking at the old man. He wanted to see what the old man looked like.

All of Xiao Jian's thoughts were focused on the bamboo pole in the old man's hand. It went along the thread and reached the river. A black dorsal fin created ripples in the water.

The old man didn't seem like the kind of boring fighting style he used to play. He only wanted to fish for the thrill of finding a fish to take the bait. From Xiao Jian's point of view, he seemed to be an expert as well.

This fully reflected the standards of meeting a big fish. It was strong. No matter how strong it was, let it roam freely. If it was weak, you would be strong. When the time was right, you would grab it and bring it ashore.

Xiao Jian watched as the old man relaxed his bamboo pole, then tightened and straightened his pole. His blood was boiling! He wished he could snatch the bamboo pole from the old man's hands. He wished he could have a taste of fishing!

When he saw the old man fishing, especially when the fish took the bait, the craving in his heart was completely hooked. It was as if there were thousands of little ants crawling on their chests.

Only now did Xiao Jian realize that the place where the old man was fishing. . . It was a naturally formed clamp. In the river, there were a few large rocks that had just appeared on the surface of the water. It separated the corner of the canyon that was leaning against the stone wall. It was about ten feet in size. It formed the shape of a small natural pond. The surface of the water was very calm, unlike the surface of the river outside. The waves were sparkling and rippling.

At this time, Xiao Jian saw that the black shadow that scuttled about on the surface of the river seemed to have exhausted all of its strength. It just seemed like it was not resigned to its fate as it slowly swam around.

At this moment, the old man who was fishing smiled knowingly. The bamboo pole in his right hand was slowly lifted up bit by bit. The arc of the bamboo pole grew bigger and bigger at the tip of the bamboo pole. However, it fully reflected the characteristics and tenacity of the bamboo.

As the bamboo stick was raised higher and higher, a black shadow was still struggling to break out of the water.

From the moment the black shadow broke out of the water, Xiao Jian could estimate its weight and breed. The sturgeon was about five kilograms. It had a grayish-brown dorsal fin, a snow-white body, a triangular head, and a sharp mouth.

The moment the old man saw the fish come out of the water, he slightly exerted force on the bamboo pole in his right hand and swung it upwards. The sturgeon drew an arc in the air and flew up.

The old man nimbly grabbed the middle end of the codfish. He pulled it from the hook. He retreated. Only then did he turn around and look at Xiao Jian. "Little brother, why did you suddenly come here? Look at you, little brother. You were so excited just now. You seem to be even more nervous than me! Don't tell me little brother is at this age. . . Do you like fishing?" The old man opposite him asked gently.

At this moment, Xiao Jian finally saw the old man's face clearly. He was 1. 7 meters tall and had a slim figure. He had yellow skin and a round face. One look at him and one could feel his warmth. However, the corners of his eyes were covered with wrinkles. However, these wrinkles added a touch of kindness to him.

Around 60 years old, his hands were long and slender, and his skin was very fair and smooth. It seemed like the old man paid more attention to maintaining his hands. However, the most eye-catching thing about the old man was his mouth. He was the one with the thickest lips Xiao Jian had ever seen.

The teeth on his mouth were also snow white and neat. It was truly shocking. An elder in his sixties actually had a pair of young hands, as well as clean and neat teeth. And those thick lips could only be compared to the black people Xiao Jian had seen before.

"Replying to senior, junior just ran on the main road and saw the two sides of the main road. The beautiful scenery in the canyon could not help but be distracted for a moment and was brought into the forest by the horse. Coincidentally, I'm hungry too, so I'm preparing to have a wild game to fill my stomach. Coincidentally, when he heard the sound of running water, he ran over.

He had long heard that in the Misty Sea of Yunmeng. . . It was rich in sturgeon, fat and beautiful. The texture of the fish meat was exquisite. Coincidentally, he had a taste of it in Dreamcloud City today. It was indeed not bad. However, it was steamed today. They missed the taste of the grilled fish. Thus, they came here to try their luck. He didn't want to. Coincidentally, he saw Senior fishing here. Junior had been fond of fishing ever since he was young. Therefore, when the fish took the bait, he could not help but feel his blood boil. Senior, I'm sorry for that. " Xiao Jian replied respectfully.

The old man, who was wearing a blue robe and had thick lips, looked at the handsome young man in white who had a firm expression on his face. He had a good impression of him. In addition, he had a common hobby with the old man, so the old man could recognize that the young man in front of him really liked to fish. He did not purposely flatter him in order to cater to the old man.

That was because he was an example of that, as long as he saw someone else fishing, he would feel an itch in his heart. He had even tried to steal someone else's fishing rod, and ended up fishing on his own. In addition, Xiao Jian's attitude was respectful, and he couldn't help but have a better impression of the young man in white.

The old man said with a smile. "Then, let's eat together! Anyway, such a big fish, I. . . I won't be able to finish it all by myself. "

"Alright, thank you, senior. In that case, junior will also go and get a wild game to thank senior for giving me a fish. Senior, please give me some pointers on this junior's craftsmanship. " After saying that, Xiao Jian scuttled towards the forest at the side.

The blue-robed old man smiled at this. He did not take Xiao Jian's craftsmanship to heart. He carried the fish to a low river and started to take care of the fish.

Xiao Jian walked around the forest and found a fanged pig. He cut the fanged pig into pieces with his knife. He put one of his two hind legs into the Storage Ring and carried the other one to the side of the cliff.

When he arrived at the side of the cliff, he found that the old man had already started a fire. Both sides were supported by wooden shelves. The sturgeon was wearing an iron round stick and was being roasted on the fire. Seeing this, Xiao Jian returned with a smile.

Xiao Jian also lifted half of his hind legs and walked towards the river. He shaved off the fur on the outside and shattered the leg bones on the hind legs with Yuan energy. He then poured Yuan energy into it and slowly, afraid of being hit, shattered his tendons and became soft. By doing so, the meat would not feel old after eating it.

Immediately after, he took out a sharp dagger from within the Storage Ring. He cut the large piece of meat from the hind legs into three big pieces. Then, he cut open a hole with different depths on each piece. Of course, it was the weight of two humans and one beast.

Xiao Jian first took out three white jade number one pill bottles from his Storage Ring. He poured out yellow, green, and white liquids from each of them, sprinkling them on the various knife marks on the meat. The liquid was light, afraid of being hit, so it was absorbed into the meat.

These three liquids were onion, ginger, and onion juice at that time. It was prepared by Xiao Jian a long time ago. It was also a habit of Xiao Jian when he cooked. No matter if it was fish or meat, they all liked to use onion ginger to cover up the fishy smell. Wine, on the other hand, would only be used on some bodies with special smells.0

Xiao Jian packed everything up and walked towards the place where the old man grilled fish.

At this time, the old man's fish had almost been roasted. It had already turned slightly yellow. The old man was still focusing on flipping the sturgeon on the fire.

Xiao Jian was also not far from the old man, and the fire had risen. He took out a set of special barbeque tools from his interspatial Storage Ring. An iron rack and an iron rod. He skewered the three pieces of pork and placed them on top of it. Then, he slowly turned them over.

At this moment, the old man opposite him was holding two small bottles and sprinkling them evenly on the sturgeon.

Xiao Jian watched the old man's technique as he flipped the grilling meat on his grill. He found the old man. He was also a middle class family!

It seemed like the ancient saying passed down in the food and beverage world was completely useless to the old man. "Those who know how to eat might not know how to cook, but those who know how to cook might not love to eat. "

At this moment, the old man's fish. . . It had already been roasted and split into half. It was coming towards Xiao Jian. Looking at Xiao Jian's complete set of barbecued equipment, he couldn't help but think about what Xiao Jian had said about barbecued meat. There was a slight change in his view. He could not help but have a trace of anticipation in his heart. He hoped that Xiao Jian could bring him a hint of surprise, a different taste.

"Little brother, it seems like you also like barbecuing! Come, try my cooking first and give me an evaluation!" As the old man spoke, he handed half a serving of grilled fish to Xiao Jian.

Xiao Jian respectfully received it with both hands and expressed his thanks. He took a look at the golden colored roast fish and lightly smelled it. The unique fragrance of the sturgeon fish entered his nose.

Xiao Jian gently tore a small piece. He put it into his mouth and slowly savored the old man's cooking. It seemed that it was very unique. The outer skin of the sturgeon was crisp, and the meat was still fresh and tender. Furthermore, the old man only used the most primitive method of roasting. He only used salt, tastebuds, and a little pepper to preserve the original flavor of the sturgeon.

With just a mouthful, Xiao Jian gave the old man an evaluation. Very good.

The old man stared at Xiao Jian, waiting for his answer. "Little brother, how do you feel?" After asking, he nervously waited for Xiao Jian's answer.
