    The remaining four teenagers pushed the second gargoyle to the center and processed it according to the previous method. The meat slices stacked one by one filled the plate, making people feel satisfied just by looking at it.

    "What should I do with the remaining one? Should I put it in the freezer first? Or simply eat it together?" Dong Liang looked at the corpse of the last hanging head monster and asked the others.  But looking at his expression, it was obvious that he preferred the latter.

    "Just this one plateis one plate of meat enough?" Lu Daqian has not stopped swallowing during this period, and even spoke intermittently.  "Ah Heng is a big eater. He usually eats three or four bowls more than us. Unless we don't let him taste the meat today, it will definitely not be enough for the five of us to share."

    "Well, the fourth child is right, let Aheng go back to his room to eat some dry food." Dong Liang made a joke and turned to look at Zhang Ruize. The senior brother was not here, so as the second child, he naturally had to come out and make up his mind.

    Zhang Ruize glanced at the three junior brothers, frowned slightly, and finally thought for a while before making a decision.  "Cut it all, but we only take half of it and store the rest in the freezer. If the master still wants to eat it tomorrow, we can have an explanation."

    ¡°Hey, this is a good idea, it¡¯s the best of both worlds.¡± Dong Liang applauded.

    Then they cut up the last gargoyle and divided it into two plates.  One was taken downstairs along with condiments and the like, and the other was put with a lid in the "freezer" in the corner of the room.  This large cabinet with an ordinary appearance is also a common magic weapon.  Like its name, it has similar functions to Tie Heng's refrigerator in his previous life, except that it is larger and the temperature inside can be adjusted lower. Some unprocessed or easily perishable materials are stored in it.  .

    After cleaning the workroom, Tie Heng returned to the hall downstairs with his senior brothers.  Dong Liang, who came down first, had already arranged the tables and chairs. There was a lit charcoal pot in the center of the large round table, surrounded by various spices and condiments. The meat slices on the two large plates were also divided into five equal parts and placed on the five sides.  seats before.  In addition to this main dish, there are many dishes on the table, most of which are ordinary things, and some may look simple, but the ingredients used are extraordinary.  Tie Heng looked at them and recognized them one by one, with a look of surprise on his face.

    "Haha, I knew A Heng would have this expression." Lu Daqian pulled Tie Heng to sit down and pointed at a large bowl in front of him.  "This is called cold five-flavor root. Do you know what it is?"

    The bowl is a simple cold vegetable dish, but the ingredients used are unusual.  "Of course I recognize them. Silver leaf grass, golden kelp, the roots of purple bud orchid, the petals of lantern flower If I remember correctly, two of the flavors are slightly toxic?"

    Tie Heng came close to the mouth of the bowl and smelled it, and smelled a sour smell that hit his nose.  "Vinegar!? Can this vinegar detoxify them?"

    "Of course vinegar doesn't have this effect, but you see, these herbs are all twisted together, so you have to eat them together in your mouth. They can neutralize each other's toxins." Lu Daqian explained with a smile.  Said: "And this vinegar can remove some medicinal smells and better bring out their crisp taste. It can achieve the effect of washing the mind and eliminating worries."

    "Hey, there's no point in just talking, Ah Heng, you can try it first and you'll know." Dong Liang, who was next to him, stretched out his hand, picked up a chopstick dish for Tie Heng, and put it in his bowl.

    "Yes, yes, Third Senior Brother is right. You will know after you try it." Lu Daqian also repeatedly said yes.

    Tie Heng was not polite, picked up a piece of colorful five-flavor root, put it in his mouth and chewed it slowly.  His face looked a little dissatisfied at first, but soon his brows relaxed and he kept nodding.

    "How is it?" Dong Liang asked him with a smile.

    ¡°No wonder it¡¯s called the five-flavored root. It¡¯s sour, sweet, bitter, spicy, and salty. It¡¯s all just right, and it¡¯s crispy, tender, and refreshing. The aftertaste is sweet and fragrant. Even if you swallow it, it can still come out, as if  It's so delicious. It tastes good, it tastes good, it really tastes good." Tie Heng praised him over and over again. Zhang Ruize and the others had long expected that he would have such a reaction. They looked at each other, laughed, and gave  He introduced some other special dishes.

    "You have to try these. Even though they are simple to cook, I heard from senior brother that he had been busy all afternoon before preparing them properly!" Lu Daqian reminded.

    Tie Heng was amazed, and picked up the dishes that the three senior brothers put in his bowl for him to taste. He was full of praise.

    "Gululu!" The four teenagers were stunned when they heard the sound, and Dong Liang raised his hand in embarrassment.  "It's my stomach that's growling."

    "Haha, the third child must be hungry because he saw Ah Heng eating so deliciously! He was busy just now and spent more than two hours.??It's already past midnight, so our meal can be regarded as a late-night snack.  "Zhang Ruize nodded in understanding. He touched his stomach. It was obvious that he had been hungry for a long time.

    "How about this, let's chat while eating, so that we can have a good foundation first. When the senior brother comes down, we can enjoy it openly. What do the junior brothers think?" Zhang Ruize suggested.

    Dong Liang naturally had no objection. Tie Heng had eaten a lot so far, so he couldn't say anything. Lu Daqian loved food the most. At this moment, facing a large table of delicacies, he was not as calm as when he was upstairs.  He hesitated and said nothing.

    "Okay, okay, the junior brothers have agreed, let's get started!" Zhang Ruize smiled proudly and took out a few small wine bottles and wine glasses from under the table.  "Smell it! Whoever can guess what kind of wine this is, I will reward him with half a bottle more."

    This obviously didn¡¯t mean anything to Tie Heng, so he just watched with a smile.  Looking at Dong Liang and Lu Daqian again, they raised their necks and inhaled deeply, and then exhaled after a while.  Dong Liang was still a little undecided, but Lu Daqian had already shouted loudly, "This is Daochuan Xiang!"

    "Exactly, exactly. Xiaosi, your family is indeed a restaurant owner, and your nose is a bright spot." When Zhang Ruize said this, the smile on Lu Daqian's face suddenly disappeared. He seemed to be reluctant to let others mention his origin.  But Zhang Ruize didn't realize it, or more likely pretended not to see it on purpose, and continued to talk to himself: "These pots are the Daochuanxiang secretly brewed by Shizhen Hall in the city. They are brewed with the best rice in the city every year."  It is brewed from the spring water of Fengchuan River in Nanshan, and most people cannot buy it even if they have money."

    "Humph!" Lu Daqian softly made a dissatisfied nasal sound.  Tie Heng smiled nonchalantly.

    Among their five senior brothers, Zhang Ruize and Dong Liang are the ones with the best backgrounds.  The former is a descendant of the Zhang family, a prominent family in southern Fuzhou. It is said that he is also a distant relative of Feng Shiyou, so he should be considered a great-grandson.  Dong Liang came from a family of officials. Because of his excellent talent, he was sent to be Feng Shiyou's apprentice.  The two people have similar origins, and their living habits and other concepts are naturally the most similar. This is also the reason why the two have the best relationship.

    For example, every month a lot of money and supplies are sent to their homes for their expenses. Although Feng Shiyou has made certain restrictions on this, it is still not comparable to others.  Lu Daqian's family is a small businessman who runs a restaurant, and the help he can give him is very limited.  Gongsun Bian had the same origin as Tie Heng. They were both orphans. He relied entirely on his own efforts and talents to persist until now.

    With Feng Shiyou¡¯s teaching method, their monthly expenses as apprentices are huge.  If you don¡¯t have a certain financial foundation or ability, it will be too difficult.  If Hu Ga hadn't given Tie Heng a money bag with a full fifty red coins in it, this money would have helped Tie Heng a lot in the past two months.

    "Come, come, let's all try the taste of this wine?" Zhang Ruize held the wine pot and poured it for the three of them one after another.  "cheers!"

    "What a beautiful drink. I have often heard people mention this Daochuan-flavored wine before, but this time, thanks to the blessing of my second senior brother, I can taste it myself." Looking at the slightly bluish liquid in the wine glass, Dong Liang smacked his lips.  Mouth, took a small sip.

    "Well, it's mellow and refreshing, good wine, good wine!" He then let out a long sigh and patted the table in admiration.

    "Haha, Third Brother, I, as a senior brother, don't have as much dignity as you think. These wines were specially obtained by my family to honor the master, knowing that he likes good food and wine. The master thought that if the feast tonight  It wouldn¡¯t be beautiful without wine to accompany it, so I rewarded these pots for all of us to have a taste."

    "That's it." Tie Heng was relieved. Otherwise, Feng Shiyou's strict character would not have allowed his apprentice to drink secretly.

    Tie Heng then took a sip of the wine in the glass, but felt that it was fragrant and pure, not very strong.  When the wine rolled down the throat and into the stomach, it suddenly turned into a ball of heat and slowly spread out, making people feel comfortable all over.

    "It is indeed a good wine." Tie Heng said with a smile: "Haha, I don't really know much about wine. I only know that this wine is easy to drink, not strong, and has a nice flavor on the teeth. It is very delicious."

    "Haha, Ah Heng, you are telling the truth." Zhang Ruize said happily, then he saw Lu Daqian draining a glass of wine in one gulp, then reaching out to grab the wine bottle, and couldn't help but persuade him: "Da Qian, you and Ah Heng are still young.  Xiao, don¡¯t drink too much, especially if you take such a heavy mouthful, it can hurt your body. Don¡¯t look at the softness of this Daochuan incense in the mouth, it has a lot of staying power.¡±

    "What's wrong? Has Second Senior Brother forgotten my origin? I grew up next to a wine vat. Not to mention the wine drank by such literati, I, Lu Daqian, can even drink a vat of liquor from the North.  . Huh! Or is it that the second senior brother is reluctant to part with the half-full bottle of wine mentioned just now and wants to default on his debt?" Lu Daqian actually contradicted him unceremoniously.

    "Okay, okay, whatever you want, whatever you want."If you have a good drinker, you can drink to your heart's content, but don't get drunk, otherwise the master will not look good.  "The smile on Zhang Ruize's face suddenly disappeared and he warned coldly.

    "I can take care of that myself." After Lu Daqian said that, he ignored him, grabbed the wine bottle, filled himself a glass, tilted his neck, and drank it clean.

    "Second senior brother, don't be angry. The fourth brother likes to drink, so let him drink by himself." Dong Liang intervened to persuade him.  "Come on, come on, second senior brother, come and eat the mouth meat. This is your favorite spicy oil. I'm sure you'll enjoy it."

    Dong Liang said as he picked up another piece of meat, rubbed some fine salt on both sides, and grilled it on the charcoal basin.  "Ah Heng, the meat of this twisted head monster can be grilled and eaten after being dipped in some salt. It is delicious, tender and has the most authentic flavor. If you like a special taste, you can also add various spices to grill it or dip it in it.  Eat it with these seasonings. But when grilling it over charcoal, it¡¯s best not to grill the meat too well. It¡¯ll be half-cooked or medium-rare, otherwise the meat juice inside will lose too much and the taste will be bad.¡±

    When Dong Liang said this, the meat slices in his hands were cooked just right. The translucent milky white meat slices slowly turned tender red under the charcoal fire, and curled up to form a meat roll.  Dong Liang put it into Tie Heng's bowl.  "Have a taste! But be careful, don't bite off your tongue and swallow it in your stomach. Hehe, to tell you the truth, I like to eat meat. Every meal is meat-free. If I eat it every day  Even if I can eat this, I would live ten years shorter."

    Tie Heng smiled and nodded gratefully to him, then picked up the piece of meat and put it into his mouth.  "Well, it's fragrant, smooth and tender, and it really tastes good. The meat looks tight and dense, but it melts in your mouth. The umami aroma seems to flow all the way into the stomach, and then escape from every pore."

    "Haha, Ah Heng, you describe it well." Dong Liang also roasted a piece of meat and stuffed it into his mouth, half-squinting his eyes and shaking his head, as if he was enjoying it very much.

    "Especially this gravy, well I can't even describe the taste of it. I can only say it's delicious. It's really delicious. I can't stop drooling. I have to eat another piece, otherwise I'll really ruin my taste.  My tongue was bitten off and swallowed. Three senior brothers, did you hurt your tongue before?" Tie Heng took the pieces of meat on the plate in front of him and grilled them on the charcoal pot. After hearing his exaggerated words, Zhang Ruize and the others  He laughed out loud, and even Lu Daqian, who was drinking sullenly at the side, also showed a bit of a smile.

    "I was almost there, but the third child was right. The first time he ate it, he bit his tongue. As a result, he shed tears while stuffing meat into his mouth. That scene has stuck with me all my life.  I won¡¯t forget it.¡± Zhang Ruize laughed and said.

    "Second senior brother, you still like to talk about embarrassing things about me!" Dong Liang muttered dissatisfiedly, but in a flash he pointed at Lu Daqian and talked about his past.  "The fourth child is not much better than me. He was so impatient that time that his lips were blistered with blood from the freshly roasted meat, and he kept eating so much!"

    Tie Heng turned his head to look at Lu Daqian¡¯s embarrassed expression, then looked at his plump lips, and laughed with everyone again.  Several senior fellow apprentices just chatted among themselves, eating a piece of meat and drinking wine, and soon they got into a better mood, and the more they chatted, the more energetic they became.  Dong Liang also talked about many interesting things about his childhood, Zhang Ruize also talked about many things in his family, and Lu Daqian mentioned the most about various famous dishes and wines, and compared them with the dishes on the table.  What he said is quite clear.  Tie Heng estimated that if he hadn't become an alchemist's apprentice, he might have become a famous chef in the future!

    "This may be a big loss for the catering industry!" Tie Heng thought to himself.
