Watching Tang Zi enjoy a small bun, Tai Feng blinked, feeling that something was not quite right.
His gaze quickly turned to the small bun in front of him. Following Tang Zi's actions, he awkwardly picked up a trembling small bun with chopsticks and cautiously took a bite.
As the delicious soup filled his mouth, Tai Feng's eyes suddenly lit up. "This small bun is really good!"
The delicious taste was something he had never experienced before. Although this small bun looked somewhat similar to ordinary buns, both the eating method and the taste were completely different.
Closing his eyes, he savored the taste, then picked up another small bun, dipped it in the vinegar dish, and directly put it into his mouth to chew.
With the chewy skin wrapped around the tender meat filling, accompanied by the sourness of the vinegar, the unique and wonderful taste exploded in Tai Feng's mouth, providing an exquisite culinary experience.
Opening his eyes, Tai Feng grinned at his two brothers who were curiously looking at the steamer in front of them. He pulled the steamer closer to himself. "If you want to eat, go ahead and order your own."
There were only ten buns in the steamer in total. Tang Zi and he each ate one, leaving eight remaining.
This made Tai Feng couldn't help but sigh.
It feels... not quite enough.
Tang Zi quickly devoured his large portion of Egg Fried Rice, feeling satisfied as he rubbed his belly.
He hadn't eaten the boss's Egg Fried Rice for a few days, and he missed it strangely.
After putting down the empty plate, Tang Zi carefully examined the two new dishes.
He had only ordered three dishes in total: Egg Fried Rice, Crab Stuffed with Orange, and Ginkgo Biloba Dish. Except for the Egg Fried Rice he had been craving, the rest were new dishes.
The Ginkgo Biloba Dish hadn't been served yet, but the Crab Stuffed with Orange were already prepared and brought over by Qin Yue.
Without needing Qin Yue to introduce the dishes, just by looking at the unique appearance of the food in front of him, Tang Zi had already guessed its identity.
Using a whole orange as a container?
Another unique way of eating, indeed.
Taking a brief look at the mountain and river map carved on the orange, Tang Zi, a rough man, couldn't quite discern its intricacies. He simply thought the map was carved exceptionally well, but his attention was mainly focused on eating.
After lifting the lid of the orange cup, the rich aroma of the orange and the savory scent of crab meat, mixed with a hint of alcohol, rushed into Tang Zi's nose and mouth, causing his eyes to widen.
Crab meat and orange, two things that wouldn't usually be associated, unexpectedly combined to create such a wonderful fragrance. The orange aroma not only completely eliminated any fishy smell from the crab meat, but also added a hint of sweetness to the savory crab meat. This unique and magical taste instantly whetted Tang Zi's appetite.
Taking a small spoon, Tang Zi gently scooped up some crab meat and orange, which were sticking together. He couldn't wait to taste it. With just a slight sip, the two seemed to melt in his mouth, leaving a lingering fragrance between his lips and teeth that lasted for a long time.
Another dish that amazed Tang Zi.
Indeed, Mr. Qi never failed to impress his customers.
Because of the delicately crafted crab-stuffed orange, Tang Zi acted unusually refined this time. The spoon for the crab-stuffed orange was small, and combined with the lingering fragrance after each mouthful, it was worth savoring repeatedly.
Lost in enjoyment, it took Tang Zi nearly the time it took for an incense stick to burn to finish the crab-stuffed orange completely. Putting down the empty orange cup, his attention was quickly drawn to the Ginkgo Biloba Dish brought by Qin Yue.
Although the mountain and river map on the crab-stuffed orange was also meticulously carved, it was not as intuitive. However, the Ginkgo Biloba Dish were completely different. The lifelike craftsmanship was so astonishing that even the four Tang Sect disciples, who were skilled in controlling the most sophisticated hidden weapons, felt like their horizons had been broadened.
This was actually a dish?
Tang Zi picked up his chopsticks and looked left and right, hesitating to start.
Where should he begin?
Seeing nine mischievous children playing under the ancient pine trees, Tang Zi had an idea.
Since he didn't know, why not start with these nine children?
Picking one up and examining it, Tang Zi quickly put it into his mouth, and after a few chews, the unique taste of the ginkgo nuts, accompanied by a hint of sweetness that was neither cloying nor bland, slowly spread in Tang Zi's mouth.
The outer layer of the ginkgo nuts was soft, but the inside had a completely different texture, layered and gradually releasing a refreshing fragrance with each chew.
Truly marvelous.
Tang Zi quickly picked up the second and third ones, carefully savoring them. Soon, all nine "children" were eaten by him, and his gaze turned to the lush pine trees.
Was this just a decoration, or was it edible?
Tang Zi tentatively used his chopsticks to pick up a slightly tender twig. With a slight force, accompanied by a crisp "snap," the twig of the pine tree broke off. The sound was very familiar to Tang Zi, just like when he chewed on candied haws.
Could it be that they are the same ingredient?
Upon closer inspection, the color of the pine needles indeed bore a striking resemblance to the sugar coating of candied haws.
Putting a pine needle into his mouth, the familiar sweetness instantly filled Tang Zi's mouth.
Tang Zi's eyes lit up as he picked up each pine needle with his chopsticks and crushed them into his mouth. The sweetness, accompanied by a hint of osmanthus fragrance, brought a refreshing taste. Even after eating more, Tang Zi didn't feel nauseous.
After finishing the plate of Ginkgo Biloba Dish, Tang Zi's complexion slightly changed.
A slightly cool and unique energy slowly rose from his stomach, flowed along his meridians, and reached his brow.
This surprised him.
In the past, some of the foods from Qi Han's small shop could significantly improve one's cultivation, especially the Dongpo pork knuckles. However, a situation like this had never occurred before. Instead of increasing his Spirit Power, a peculiar energy entered his brow?
The brow was the location of the sea of
consciousness, not a place to play around with. The consequences of damage to the sea of
consciousness were far more severe than damage to the meridians.
Tang Zi became restless, but before he could think of a way to stop it, the energy had already entered his brow.
There was no pain; he only felt his mind clear, as if he had become slightly smarter, and the spiritual power within his sea of consciousness had noticeably increased.
This...
This dish of Ginkgo Biloba Dish was actually a dish that could increase Soul Power?
Tang Zi looked at Qi Han, who was busy in the kitchen, with a hint of shock in his eyes.
From the Dongpo pork knuckles that could accelerate the circulation of Spirit Power, to the Fish Belly Stuffed with Lamb that could induce deep meditation, and now this dish that could increase Soul Power, Mr. Qi was truly terrifying.
