Chef God of the Wuxia and Fantasy World

“怀疑？”宋理宗不解。

"Perhaps, Young Hero Ling isn't as young as he appears!" the Sunflower Ancestor said meaningfully.

"..."

……

Chef's Space, Farm.

凌池把刚得来的金属矿物丢给蒲恒，问道：“蒲老，你看看这些金属如何？”

蒲恒没说话，整个人都凑到了这些金属面前，眼睛越来越亮：“天外陨铁……深海寒铁……火山岩铁……好东西，好东西啊！”

见蒲恒这么激动，凌池问道：“蒲老，这些铁矿可能打造质量更高的厨具？”

Pu Heng nearly coughed up blood, lamenting, "What a waste! What a waste! These are rare divine irons, how can they be used to forge spatulas and other kitchen utensils! Young master, listen to my advice, use these divine irons to forge powerful weapons, so that you can better protect yourself when you are out there."

“呃……”凌池挠挠头，道：“那……能不能给我打造一把菜刀？菜刀也能保护我，还能做菜。”

Pu Heng: "..."

……

现实中过去了八九天，这天，蒲恒手里攥着铁锤，重重的砸下，随着一声闷响，蒲恒终于停了下来。

九九八十一天，经过九九八十一天，超过百万捶的击打，终于完成了这件神兵利器——菜刀。

Pu Heng wanted to cry.

妈了巴子的，老子辛苦这么多天，居然就为打造一把菜刀，老夫的骄傲啊！

……

当凌池看到这把成品菜刀后，满意的点了点头：“蒲老，辛苦了。”

这把菜刀真是不错，也许是为了不让自己的心血太过低调，蒲恒竟然给这菜刀的刀柄弄成了龙头的形状，龙嘴刚好衔着刀身，刀身上也刻画了看起来有些古朴的纹理，看起来既高端大气上档次，又低调奢华有内涵，完全可以当成艺术品收藏。

“公子试试这把刀是否锋利。”蒲恒随手拿出一把宝剑，这宝剑是他之前刚刚打造好的，等级与朱绯送给凌池的宝剑相同。

Ling Chi nodded, gripped the sword in his left hand and the knife in his right, and the sword and knife clashed. With a loud crash, the sword broke in two, while the knife remained undamaged.

"What a fine knife!" Ling Chi's eyes lit up. "It's truly a fine knife! Master Pu's skills have improved greatly!"

蒲恒满意的抚须而笑：“其实小老儿技艺早已达到一个瓶颈，只是缺少突破的神铁罢了，如今神兵已成，小老儿也成功突破瓶颈，技艺更上一层楼。”

“那倒是要恭喜蒲老了。”凌池拉着他的手腕：“走，请你吃饭。”

……

菜刀是神兵利器，但因为质量太高，导致菜刀的重量也远超普通菜刀，更何况这把菜刀打造的比普通菜刀要长一点，大一点，重量差不多达到了五十斤，入手沉重。

Although this weight was nothing to Ling Chi's strength, a chef's knife skills are reflected in the details, and even a slight mistake can make a difference. When he first started using this cleaver, Ling Chi could clearly feel that he was not used to it, and his knife skills had even regressed a bit, making it difficult for him to produce dishes that were of perfect quality.

Fortunately, he was adaptable, and after about ten days, he was able to wield the cleaver skillfully again and finally regained his knife skills.

Not long after he regained his knife skills, Huang Yaoshi and Hong Qigong arrived as promised.

同来的还有郭芙、程英，和……黄蓉。

Chapter Thirty-Seven: A Dish Worth a Fortune

“郭夫人怎么也来了？”

别人来，他还不觉得奇怪，唯独黄蓉。此时郭靖正率领武林义军协助大宋正规军北伐，正是战事的关键时期，作为郭靖身边唯一的智囊，黄蓉应该在前线陪着郭靖才对，怎么会跟着黄药师他们到这来了？

见凌池一脸惊讶，黄蓉有些无奈地说道：“其实我也不想来，只是爹他……唉！”

"Hmph!" Huang Yaoshi was displeased: "You are pregnant. I can let you stay in Xiangyang to offer advice, but I can't let you go on a long expedition with the army. If you harm the fetus, do you believe I will kill that brat Guo Jing?"

Huang Rong looked at Ling Chi and said helplessly, "That's how it is."

"..."

Ling Chi chuckled lightly: "That's fine too. This time, the Song Dynasty has dispatched a million troops for the Northern Expedition, and with Hero Guo and thousands of chivalrous heroes assisting, victory shouldn't be a problem. Madam Guo, just focus on your pregnancy."

“不错。”黄药师点点头：“老夫就是如此想的。”

Huang Rong rolled her eyes, stroking her growing belly, her face glowing with maternal warmth: "There's no other way."

“咦？还真是老毒物。”说话间，洪七公却跑到拴着欧阳锋的地方，看到披头散发的欧阳锋，哈哈大笑：“老毒物，你还认得老叫花子吗？”

Ouyang Feng was dazed and squatted on the ground like a toad, as if he were a mindless walking corpse.

“咦？”洪七公扭头看着凌池：“凌小子，老毒物怎么了？”

“没事。”凌池指了指自己的太阳穴：“我遇到他的时候，他脑子就有问题，刚开始整天疯疯癫癫，这些天倒是安静多了。”

"..."

Hong Qigong turned to look at Huang Rong and shook his head: "Girl, what do you think?"

"He deserved it." Huang Rong pouted. "Seventh Master, don't be soft-hearted. If I hadn't recited a few lines of the Nine Yin Manual back then, we would have all been killed by him long ago."

“倒也是。”洪七公挠挠头，看着痴呆的欧阳锋，叹了口气：“老毒物啊老毒物，没想到你堂堂西毒，最终却落得这等结局。怪只怪你以前坏事做尽，现在遭了报应了吧！”

黄药师看看欧阳锋，沉默片刻，道：“小兄弟，他毕竟是与老夫和老叫花子齐名的西毒，能否给他个痛快？”

“抱歉，不行。”凌池摇头拒绝，但顾及到黄药师的面子，补充道：“至少，目前不行。”

“目前？”黄药师不解：“这是何意？”

“Ouyang Feng once killed Long’er’s master,” Ling Chi said. “Long’er doesn’t want him to die too quickly.”

"..." Huang Yaoshi nodded: "I see."

杀师之仇不共戴天，他没理由帮欧阳锋说话，凌池也没必要顾虑他的面子。

“各位都进来坐吧！”凌池笑道：“家里有点小，莫要嫌弃。”

见凌池不再说欧阳锋的事，众人含笑点头，跟着凌池走进小木屋，自始至终都没看金轮法王一眼。

("Why are you ignoring me?" King Jinlun cried himself unconscious in the toilet.)

陆无双……好吧！陆无双一早就跟双儿下山了，没在家。

……

众人走进小木屋，看着小木屋里的装饰和摆设，都有些新奇。

“好别致的木屋。”黄药师对建筑学也有些研究，但这种欧式的风格却是生平仅见，一时倒是让他有些好奇。

"Is this a chimney?" Huang Yaoshi asked, looking at the fireplace with some uncertainty.

“算是吧！我叫它壁炉。”凌池笑道：“天气阴寒的时候生一把火，屋里会很暖和。”

黄药师把头伸进壁炉里，向上看了一眼，最顶端有亮光，但是看不到天空，应该是做了防雨处理。

"A good idea," Huang Yaoshi exclaimed. "The smoke will go out through the chimney and won't get inside the house."

“爹，你的样子丑死了。”看他探头撅屁股的样子，黄蓉娇嗔。

“……”黄药师把头缩回来，干咳两声，道：“爹只是看看这壁炉的设计，日后到了桃花岛上，也好盖上一个，给你取暖。”

Huang Rong felt a warmth in her heart: "Building a fireplace is something that can be left to the servants. Father, don't work too hard."

The father and daughter are showing off their deep father-daughter bond here.

凌池撇撇嘴，道：“难得家里来了这么多客人，中午一起吃火锅怎么样？”

"Haha, it doesn't matter what we eat, as long as it's made by you, Ling boy, this old beggar will eat anything." Hong Qigong laughed.

Huang Yaoshi laughed and said, "That's right. Thinking back to that Flying Toad dish from that day, I still find it unforgettable."

Even Huang Rong started drooling at the mention of the flying toad.

Ling Chi shook his head: "The ingredients for Flying Toad are extremely precious. To put it bluntly, one dish of Flying Toad can be exchanged for half of Lu Family Village. This time when I went to Lin'an, I exchanged more than a hundred dishes for a large amount of imperial treasures, worth no less than a million taels of silver."

Everyone was shocked, and Guo Fu exclaimed, "That...that's ten thousand taels of silver for a single dish!?"

Ling Chi glanced at her and nodded with a smile: "Miss Guo has done a good job in math."

Guo Fu blushed, lowered her head, and felt her heart pounding.

“咳！提钱就俗了。”洪七公可不知道自己吃的飞天蛤蟆值一万两银子，要是知道，打死他也……呃，反正花钱就不吃，吃不起。

However, the fact that Ling Chi could bring out such precious dishes that day just to compete with Huang Rong in cooking skills really makes him seem like a spendthrift second-generation rich kid.

“老叫花子是个要饭的，钱肯定没有，但是老叫花子可以传你几招降龙掌，以抵饭资。”

黄药师还想着要不要给凌池钱，听洪七公这么一说，倒是没了给钱的想法，问道：“小兄弟可会吹箫？”

"..." Seeing Huang Yaoshi's sincere expression, which didn't seem like he was driving, Ling Chi nodded with difficulty: "I know a little."

Huang Yaoshi nodded: "In that case, I will pass on the 'Azure Sea Tide Song' to you, young brother, to cover your meal expenses."

当年在倚天世界，凌池虽然得到了黄药师的各种杂学传承，但唯独没有武功秘籍，至今他也不会桃花岛武学的一招半式，黄药师愿意传他碧海潮生曲，算得上意外收获。

"Father, Seventh Master, you both have martial arts to teach me, what am I supposed to do?" Huang Rong was in a dilemma.

"Master Guo is fighting the Mongols at the front lines, how could I possibly accept payment for Madam Guo's meal?" Ling Chi laughed. "As long as Master Guo wins this battle, not only will I not accept payment for the meal, but I'll also treat Madam Guo to a free feast. How about that?"

Huang Rong's eyes lit up immediately, and she smiled radiantly: "Then it's a deal, no take-backs allowed."

"..."

都三十多的人了，笑起来却犹如少女般可爱，凌池心中感叹：要是穿越到射雕的世界就好了。

第三十八章 是什么让东邪泪流满面

"Brother Ling, why isn't your wife home?"

In the kitchen, Ling Chi was preparing the ingredients for hot pot, while Huang Rong assisted him with a learning attitude. After a few casual words, the topic turned to Xiaolongnu.

“今天是林朝英女侠的忌日，龙儿一早就回古墓了。”凌池说道：“今天应该不回来。”

"So it's the anniversary of Lady Lin's death." Huang Rong realized, then asked, "Is the Ancient Tomb far from here? Why didn't you come back today?"

“The ancient tomb is only a few hundred meters away.” Ling Chi smiled and said, “But besides the worship, Long’er also needs to teach the next leader of the Ancient Tomb Sect. Before leaving, she packed up today’s three meals and desserts.”

“弟妹还有弟子？”黄蓉有些惊讶，她知道小龙女只有二十多岁，这么年轻就收徒弟，可不多见。

“是龙儿师姐的弟子。”凌池将一块羊肉切成纸一般的薄片，速度不但快，而且稳，每一片的薄厚度完全一样，只这刀工就让黄蓉叹为观止。

“弟妹还有师姐吗？”黄蓉问道。
