Chapter 5: Primordial Force Frying Pan
Like a magician from the land of Chu, he pulled out a frying pan and said, "Why do we need a kitchen? Watch, I will fry you a steak!"
He pried open the door of the warehouse
I like soft-shelled turtle soup, let me do it!
In the era of Chutian, electric lights have been obsolete for many years
Meng Yingying's eyes were wide open: "Why does the electric light shine?"
She appeared very happy, as if she had accomplished something remarkable, filled with joy. Unfortunately, she only brought two steaks; otherwise, it would have been truly enjoyable.
Meng Yingying forked the meat and put it into her mouth
"Scoundrel, do you still dare to speak of this matter!" Meng Yingying was furious as thunder: "I must return the goods!"
The most astonishing aspect is that the high temperature seems to be confined within a range of just a few centimeters, with no sensation of heat in the surrounding area, while the handle of the frying pan remains perpetually cool to the touch
Several small glass domes are strung together with wire and hung from the ceiling, each glass sphere radiating a bright glow, making the dim little room particularly bright and comfortable
Chutian is not a professional elemental chef, but he is still capable of using versatile cooking formations. This way, when embarking on long journeys, especially during outdoor adventures, he will not have to resort to eating raw beast meat.
Chutian displayed an attitude of indifference: "Please, I have no money, but trust me, you will not be disappointed!"
In this era of the slave market, is there really such a humane after-sales service?
I see
Chutian has selected the ingredients
This era is almost non-existent, or one might say it is still extremely immature
Chutian has been coaxing for a long time
The moonlight yak is indeed a magical beast
This is common sense, isn't it! Meng Yingying is now seriously doubting Chu Tian's culinary skills. Magical beasts are monsters with the ability to cultivate, and their physical bodies are infused with a large amount of elemental energy, making their strength tenfold or even a hundredfold that of humans. It is difficult for warriors to cut through them with a knife, let alone our teeth. Because the strength of magical beast meat is too high, ordinary people cannot digest it. When you eat it and cannot excrete it, it could very well be fatal!
She personally washed the chopped silver soft-shelled turtle clean, stuffed it all into the pot for stewing, then added some chicken pieces, shiitake mushrooms, and ginger slices, and then began to infuse it with elemental energy. The entire process was very simple, requiring almost no learning.
Candles or oil lamps are commonly used on the mainland, while more upscale options include crystal lamps. The former is very inconvenient and not bright enough, while the latter is extremely expensive in terms of both cost and consumption, making it unaffordable for middle and lower-class families
What?
fifteen minutes later
Wait a moment
"Do not be angry, do not be angry, can we just say it was my fault?" Chu Tian hurriedly tried to calm the furious girl: "Since that is the case, let me show you a little something that civilized people use, to compensate for your mental distress!"
What medicine is being sold in the gourd of Chutian
I am almost starving, aren't you going to take care of the meal?
A heartless voice came through
I am shocked
Do not hastily return items; after all, we have shared a bed and have a physical connection. Saying this is quite hurtful to our feelings
Hiss! Hiss! Hiss!
Swish
Meng Yingying was unaware of her wardrobe malfunction, her face flushed as she said: "I was expelled by the teacher, my sister will definitely be very disappointed if she finds out. I can't bear to tell her, so I might as well take the tuition refund from the teacher as capital. I have the money, you have the skills, let's partner up and make a big profit, and give her a surprise!"
The air above the frying pan seems to be affected by high temperatures, as it begins to distort.
Elemental Cooking
What is going on with this glass? What could emit such a bright light?
Meng Yingying had not eaten anything for most of the day, and she was indeed very hungry. She decided to fill her stomach first before thinking about how to explain the headache issue to her sister. Therefore, she took Chu Tian to the food storage room
Meng Yingying felt as if she were a starving ghost reincarnated, as she drank a bowl of soup, her entire body felt hot, as if her blood were burning
Meng Yingying possesses the cultivation of the second level of body refinement. Although her elemental energy is not profound, it is several times stronger than Chu Tian's. As she infused elemental energy into the frying pan, the energy array at the bottom of the pan absorbed the elemental energy, immediately generating a surging invisible force.
With a gentle flick of his wrist, Chu Tian flipped the steak over, and to his surprise, the seared side had already changed color.
Chutian clearly did not use fire, as if the frying pan were being heated simultaneously by hundreds of thousands of small holes, very densely and evenly.
A deliciously cooked steak has appeared
The emergence of electric lights is undoubtedly a milestone of civilization
Meng Yingying's eyes sparkled with excitement; once she started eating, she couldn't stop. She immediately devoured several large pieces, her mouth dripping with grease, and mumbled, "Wow, I've never had such amazing monster meat before"
Indeed, everything is ready now, only the ingredients and seasonings are missing
This is called a light bulb
A steaming steak has been taken out of the pan
This is a soup pot. I will draw a 'small cooking arrangement'. Did we not bring a silver turtle? How about stewing a pot of turtle soup?
... ...
Meng Yingying put down her utensils and walked over: "Let me give it a try!"
Meng Yingying's excited little face turned red as she nervously held the frying pan, "What should I do now? What should I do now?"
Meng Yingying seemed to ask curiously over and over again, and finally exclaimed: "Oh my, there are so many strange and unusual things, you really have some peculiar abilities!"
Chutian was exhausted and drenched in sweat, but upon seeing the expression of light beauty that she liked, he nodded with a sense of relief.
Meng Yingying's face turned as red as an apple, unsure whether it was due to nervousness or shyness. She only felt a warm hand enveloping her own, and surprisingly, she did not feel much resistance, treating it as if nothing had happened
How does the wind flow in the cabin
Meng Yingying is an impatient person, and she slammed the table and shouted: "What plans are there! Come with me to set up a stall tonight! We are going to sell steak!"
Chutian handed her the frying pan for cooking steak, saying, "I will draw a 'small frying array' on the bottom of the pan. You just need to infuse your elemental energy into it, and it will take effect. Now, give it a try."
Chutian let out a long yawn and lazily said, "Tian Zhen, I will tell you plainly, the value of the assignments I helped you complete is enough to buy out the Talismans Guild in Tian Nan City. That old scoundrel kicked you out with one foot, clearly intending to keep it all for himself."
Chutian laughed and said, "This time you won't take me to the slave market to return me, will you?"
Meng Yingying snorted and said: "Of course, a three-day money-back guarantee and a seven-day exchange policy!"
So fast? When we usually make soup, it takes at least several hours!
The steak makes a sound as if being seared by high heat the moment it touches the bottom of the pan
After Meng Yingying had her fill, she suddenly stood up and slammed the table, saying, "Chutian, I've figured it out; let's go into business together!"
The cabin is, as described by Chu Tian, a place that is stuffy, hot, and dark
The physical strength of the Warcraft meat is extremely high, and its thermal conductivity is very poor. Sometimes, when it is directly placed over a fire for grilling, the outer layer can be completely charred while the inside may remain uncooked. Even when sliced thinly to be cooked, this type of food is still very difficult to digest
What does it mean? How dare you say that I am a barbarian? In what way do I resemble a barbarian! Return it! Return it!
Chutian understood that the thoughtful young girl wanted to share the burden, and smiled as she said: "Actually, it's very simple, you don't need to learn it at all"
It is generally difficult for an ordinary chef to handle such ingredients
The steak is continuously flipped, with fragrant butter oozing out.
Chutian waved his hand: "Hi, it's not a big deal, but the old man is indeed being ungrateful by burning the bridge after crossing it, which is truly inconsiderate"
Chutian noticed that Meng Yingying's face had traces of tears, "Oh, why are you crying? Were you moved by my tragic experiences and my spirit of perseverance in the face of adversity?"
Meng Yingying was taken aback: "Is that so?"
Chutian wishes to reach in and give them a good lesson
So mischievous
I have found you!
In the era of Chutian life, elemental force arrays permeated every aspect of daily life. Elemental force cooking was a common skill, and although the vast majority of people understood a few elemental force cooking arrays, very few truly mastered it. This is because within each category of cooking—frying, sautéing, deep-frying, boiling, and roasting—there are at least hundreds of different elemental force arrays. Only true top-tier elemental force chefs, who dedicate over a decade to learning, can master all these techniques.
"There is no need to mention it, the bed board is so hard that it leaves my back and waist aching." Chu Tian was stretching his muscles and bones, looking quite uncomfortable: "Fortunately, I am clever and resourceful. I pried open the warehouse door and took out some materials to improve the living conditions a bit. After all this fuss, it was almost dawn. I was both sleepy and tired, so I naturally fell into a deep sleep on the bed until after noon."
The Chu Tian has become much more composed, savoring every bite from beginning to end: "Beast meat | It possesses very rich nutrition and capabilities, and elemental cooking can fully extract its potential. Your physique is not strong enough; you cannot consume too much at once, otherwise, you may over-supplement and end up with problems."
Meng Yingying wiped her eyes and said angrily, "Nonsense, I am upset because I was expelled by the teacher, I don't care about your life or death!"
Meng Yingying laughed excitedly: "I, Meng Yingying, can also cook delicious steak now!"
Miss, please enjoy your meal
Chutian found it very strange: "How did you suddenly think of this?"
Hoo Hoo
The broth is milky white, rich in aroma and flavor, with a full-bodied taste that is fragrant yet not greasy, fresh yet not fishy. A few pieces of bone are stewed to perfection, tender and resilient, with a delightful chewiness. The shiitake mushrooms and chicken pieces are completely tenderized, with their flavors fully infused into the broth, making it truly a delicacy of the world
"Are you the only one to treat me to a feast?"
The heat released from the frying pan in Chutian seems to possess an extraordinary penetrating power, permeating every cell and fundamentally breaking down the stubborn characteristics of the monster meat, fully releasing its deliciousness and nutrition
Grill for about 8 minutes
Meng Yingying noticed that Chu Tian was very tired. With a thought, she stood up and said, "Could you teach me how to use this pan to fry steak?"
Chu Tian approached with disheveled hair and bleary eyes, appearing as if he had just woken up
It is so hot, so hot
When the time is right, add sea salt, black pepper, olive oil, lemon juice, and various seasonings.
A teapot is placed on a broken wooden table, not set on the fire to boil. It emits a bubbling sound from within, which continues unabated, as if it is perpetually in a state of boiling.
Meng Yingying was utterly confused by Chu Tianqi: "You don't even have the ingredients and seasonings, what do you mean by being fully prepared?"
The moment the lid of the pot was lifted, a strong and rich aroma wafted out, nearly overwhelming Meng Yingying. She had never imagined that food could emit such an enticing fragrance. She hurriedly fetched a bowl and filled it generously for herself.
In the afternoon, the blazing sun is like fire
Chutian interrupted without hesitation: "Alright, stop asking. If you continue, you won't understand."
A piece of steak was thrown in, immediately producing the sound of high-temperature searing.
Swish
Meng Yingying sat gently swaying on the swing in the small courtyard, sunlight cascading over her flawless skin, accentuating the alluring whiteness of her thighs, which seemed so tender they could be wrung out for water. However, her delicate cheeks had become dirty, and crystalline tears fell like scattered pearls, her fragile appearance evoking an irresistible urge to protect her
Meng Yingying rushed over and grabbed Chu Tian, shaking him vigorously with both hands. The two were separated by a table; Chu Tian was seated while Meng Yingying stood. As she leaned over, two mischievous white rabbits popped out again, bouncing and hopping along with the shaking, creating a scene full of exuberance.
Chutian poured the steak onto Meng Yingying's plate, the entire piece of steak was three centimeters thick, with a bright red color, juices flowing, thoroughly cooked inside and out, tender and delicious, a peculiar rich aroma wafting throughout the entire room, making Meng Yingying's mouth water, eagerly grabbing the knife to cut into it
The principle of photoelectric conversion is inscribed with five arrays of elemental energy: one array for absorbing elemental energy, one array for generating elemental energy, one array for storing electrical energy, one array for regulating and outputting electrical energy, and one array for converting electrical energy into light energy. These arrays are interconnected and function simultaneously, causing the light bulb to illuminate
Meng Yingying turned her face and huffed, "You just woke up? It is already afternoon!"
However, the moment Meng Yingying opened the door, she seemed to be instantly petrified, standing there in shock, her eyes wide open, unable to believe the scene before her: "What... what is this thing?"
The wind echoed within the room, as it turned out that the four walls were adorned with azure formations. The interplay of these four formations drew the indoor air currents, creating a series of gusts that made even the hottest summer day feel refreshing and cool inside the room
The meat of the Warcraft is very tough, yet this piece of beef was easily cut off
How can traditional cooking methods be compared to elemental cooking? Alright, let's open the pot and taste the flavor
Meng Yingying walked while frowning and said, "What you have is all monster meat. Although monster meat is very nutritious, it is not tasty and is hard to digest"
Meng Yingying swung her two jade-like legs and swiftly jumped down from the swing, standing in front with her hands on her hips. "Do not speak carelessly. Although I was expelled by Master Zhang, I did get a full refund of my tuition fees, which is equivalent to having been taught for four years for free. He did not gain any benefits from this."
Who said that
"One cannot help but boast? Master Zhang, with his noble character, would never engage in such actions!" Meng Yingying approached Chu Tian and said, "Moreover, I have been expelled, which means you will be unemployed as well. I will take you to return the goods and demand the slave trader refund my money!"
You barbarians truly do not understand how to enjoy life
Meng Yingying had no time to blame Chu Tian for his rudeness, pointing at the teapot and asking: "Why can your teapot heat itself?"
The primordial energy from Chutian infused into the pot, causing a primordial energy array at the bottom of the pot to illuminate.
"That depends on your performance!" Meng Yingying's curiosity was very strong. When she encountered something novel, she momentarily forgot her worries, and her mood improved significantly. She sat down casually and said, "Hey, didn't you invite me for a feast? I've brought all the ingredients, but there is no kitchen here! Let me tell you, if you dare to play tricks on me, I will take you to return them!"
One silver turtle
The little girl's hands are both smooth and tender
Meng Yingying discovered that Chu Tian had two pots, one being a frying pan for steak and the other a steel pot for soup. She pointed to the clay pot and asked, "What is this pot used for?"
Chutian spoke with righteous indignation: "The house you arranged for me is not only small and dirty, but it also lacks even an oil lamp, let alone pots and pans. Moreover, the windows are very small, barely allowing any ventilation. In the sweltering summer heat, it feels like a can, how am I supposed to sleep?"
Simply draw a heating type of elemental array
Wuwuwu ... ...
Let's go make money together
Chutian nodded: "The soup is ready"
Generally, it is quite difficult to cook this type of ingredient with a regular flame
Two pieces of Moonlight Yak steak
Because of the fan array on the wall, I actually wanted to install an air conditioner, but I could not find the materials, so I had to make do with it
Chutian asked: "So what are your plans?"
No open flames allowed
Chutian picked up a piece of moonlight beef steak and threw it in
In this era, electric lights have not yet been invented
Meng Yingying volunteered herself
Meng Yingying was just about to speak
This fellow is incredibly audacious
"Do not rush, do not rush, I can prove that my worth is far beyond this." Without a moment's hesitation, Chu Tian replied, "How about this, I will treat you to a grand meal first."
Chutian walked over and held Meng Yingying's trembling little hand, "Don't be nervous, stabilize the output of your elemental energy, switch sides approximately every thirty seconds, just like this. You can add the ingredients midway. I told you, it's very simple."
Chutian was taken aback: "What? Returns are still possible!"
This body was indeed once that of a noble, having practiced for a period of time; however, it never reached the realm of body refinement, and its elemental energy is truly pitifully weak. Therefore, using elemental energy for cooking is quite a drain on Chu Tian.
The little girl finally walked into the small room
What on earth is going on
Silly girl, how can you not cook with a Yuanli cooking array? Unless there is something wrong with your brain
A few minutes later
Approximately thirty seconds later
Chutian endured and made a move.
