Chapter 473 Progress
After being asked by Yae Shinko, Liu Bai finally remembered the reason why he came to the Naruto Shrine.
"Master Cooking God, I came here specifically to learn from you. Since I left you, my cooking skills have been slow to improve, and I need you to guide me."
Thinking of this, Liu Bai immediately spoke respectfully to Ying, like a devout student seeking to learn.
"I see. I have seen a few people who are as eager to learn as you. I taught them swordplay and swordsmithing. Most of the swordsmithing and kendo in the world today evolved from that time."
Hearing Liu Bai's words, Ying nodded and said this without any doubt.
When it comes to this topic, it’s inevitable to feel nostalgic for the past.
"Son of God, go and help me prepare the kitchen utensils."
After sighing at the passing of time for a while, Ying turned around and gave instructions to Yae Shinto.
"Go, go, go."
Yae Shinko responded, then walked away from the sacred cherry tree and gave an order to the priestesses to gather all of them together.
"Listen, the general is going to hold a ceremony at the shrine, which is bound to be dangerous for you. The shrine will no longer accept offerings today, and you all need to go down the mountain."
"Nana Shikano, take a few people to the city and buy the food that the shrine is short of."
After gathering the priestesses, Yae Shinko gave them instructions.
"It's the Palace Master."
Nana Shikano responded respectfully, then turned around and looked at a few familiar shrine maidens nearby.
"You guys come with me, and Ziying, you should come too."
Then Nana Shikano spoke to them, including the purple-haired shrine maiden who was a bit more withdrawn.
The best option is to take this kind of introverted person out for more walks.
Just like that, under the arrangement of Yae Shinko, all the priestesses in the shrine went down the mountain, and then Yae Shinko brought Ying and Liu Bai to the kitchen.
"Son of God, why do you want the miko to leave the shrine temporarily?"
Coming to the kitchen, Ying asked Yae Shinko in confusion.
"I'm afraid that the two of you will blow up all the miko maidens that I have worked so hard to train."
Yae Shinto was still feeling aggrieved by what had just happened. He explained in a somewhat unpleasant tone, then turned around and left.
She didn't dare stay here, otherwise she would have to try the food.
"..."
"Let's get started."
Ying felt a little embarrassed by Yae Shinko's words, but he still turned around and spoke to Liu Bai.
You know, in the nearly one year since Liu Bai left, she has been practicing diligently, and even Zhen praised her for her rapid progress.
Just like that, Ying casually swung his hand, and a spark fell under the stove, instantly igniting it.
"Even lighting a fire is so cool, you are worthy of being the God of Cooking!"
When Liu Bai saw this scene, he also imitated and shook his hands at another stove nearby.
But Liu Bai did not have elemental power, so he swung the pure white sword energy out, splitting the stove and the firewood underneath.
"...Your sword energy has improved a little bit."
Ying looked back at the other stove that was cut in half, and after a moment of silence, he spoke to Liu Bai.
"Don't worry, Master Kitchen... I have my own pot."
Liu Bai scratched his head awkwardly, then quickly spoke to Ying.
After saying that, Liu Bai raised his hand and activated the earth vein transmitter.
The next moment, a rice cooker shaped like an electric rice cooker was summoned out by Liu Bai.
"Excuse me, what would you like to eat...?"
After the rice cooker was summoned, it subconsciously asked Liu Bai, but Liu Bai had already reached out and pressed the power off button.
As long as you turn it off, it becomes an ordinary rice cooker.
"Such a magical pot...is it made by Buyer?"
It was the first time that Ying saw a talking pot, and she asked with a little curiosity.
"Well, Master Kitchen, let's get started. What are we going to make today?"
Liu Bai nodded and answered.
"Let's start with something simple, let's start with omelette."
Ying looked at the remaining ingredients in the kitchen, took a basket of eggs and made a suggestion to Liu Bai.
Liu Bai nodded, and then he and Ying each took out an egg.
Although he was holding an electric rice cooker, this pot was carefully made by Nashida and could replace any pot.
Generally speaking, it needs to be turned on before it can be used, but since the rice cooker does not support Liu Bai to cook by himself, sometimes it is difficult for Liu Bai to cook.
But every policy has its own countermeasure, and Liu Bai chose the simplest method.
[“Cooking” has been specified.]
Under the effect of "Give me a second", even if the rice cooker program does not support Liu Bai to cook by himself, he can only cooperate at this time. He cannot interrupt the heating program or escape.
Soon, Liu Bai, who followed Ying step by step, successfully made an omelette.
"It looks delicious, Master Cook. Let me try it."
Liu Bai looked carefully at the two fried eggs on the table before picking up the chopsticks beside him.
Yae Miko has gone into hiding, and the priestesses of the Narukami Taisha Shrine have been cleared out, so now Liu Bai can only taste it by himself.
Liu Bai picked up the fried egg made by Ying and put it in his mouth to taste it.
"Hmm, it tastes pretty good..."
Liu Bai's eyes lit up after taking a bite.
After eating the whole fried egg, Liu Bai found that it tasted really good, much better than the fried eggs he made himself.
Hearing Liu Bai's evaluation, Ying couldn't help but smile.
It seems that a year of hard work has paid off. Making an omelette is easy enough.
"In that case, I will also taste what you have done."
After taking a look at the fried eggs made by Liu Bai, Ying also picked up the chopsticks.
The taste was average, and with Ying's keen ability to perceive lightning, he could feel that there was still some lightning inside the egg yolk.
But it's harmless, even ordinary people won't feel much when eating it, maybe it's similar to eating spicy food.
After hearing Ying's evaluation, Liu Bai was a little excited and said that he would make one for his girl to try when he got home.
But today’s study doesn’t end here.
"Since you have mastered omelette, come and try ramen with me. I have some experience with ramen too."
After confirming that both of them had made progress in making their fried eggs, Ying continued his suggestion.
It would always be boring to make fried eggs all the time, so during this year of hard training, she would occasionally make a bowl of ramen for Shin to try.
Shin will consider whether he can eat it or not, so there is no need to worry about any problems. According to her evaluation, Ying's ramen is already so delicious that it won't kill you.
My cooking skills had never improved no matter how hard I tried before, but after I met Liu Bai, they were slowly improving...
Liu Bai recognized her as his teacher, and Ying still felt a little guilty when she thought about it.
But at this rate of improvement, it won’t take a thousand years for me to truly become a cooking god!
Such thoughts could not help but pop up in Ying's mind.
After this thought came to her mind, she felt more and more that her previous belief that the eternity that would make the entire Inazuma eternal and unchanging was not correct.
If I remain unchanged forever, I will never be able to become a cooking god.
"Well……"
At this moment, Ying suddenly raised his hand to support his forehead, feeling somewhat uncomfortable.
