Rebirth as the God of Cooking in Japan

It was still early. I took the jr train to Asahikawa and drove a jeep across the city. Xia Yu looked at the watch on his left wrist. It was just after ten o'clock in the morning.

Compare hand-drawn maps and mobile navigation maps.

The map of the Chiyo Goddess has an abstract topography, but Asahikawa City and Izumo Shrine are marked on the map with two points.

What Xia Yu has to do is to find another point from one point.

According to the terrain, he probably locked three areas.

The first one: Tokachidake.

This high mountain area is close to Furano City. Now Xia Yu is driving along the railway line from Asahikawa to Furano. On the navigation map, he is heading southeast and gradually away from downtown Asahikawa. The next destination is Biei Town in Asahikawa.

At about noon, Xia Yu was in the downtown area of ​​Biei. Although this satellite town was small, it had all the internal organs. According to the navigation map, he parked his car in front of a building called'Biei Shrine' and entered. As soon as he walked inside, Xia Yu couldn't help being disappointed. The shrine was full of tourists, and even a TV drama crew was busy.

However, Xia Yu still found the owner of the shrine and asked seriously about the location of Izumo Shrine. Who knew that the other party was confused when he heard this, saying that it was the first time he had heard the name of this shrine.

Departed disappointedly, had lunch in downtown Biei, passed the gas station, filled up the jeep's fuel, and Xia Yu drove along the straight national road in Biei, and went straight to Tokachidake without stopping.

The car was walking quietly on a national road surrounded by forests. Sometimes it didn't hit another car for half an hour. The wind blew through the forest in autumn and brought yellow leaves.

Finally, approaching the evening, Xia Yu walked to the end of the national highway, and there was no longer a vast wilderness in front of him, but there were sparse buildings.

I will stay in a hot spring hotel tonight.

Xia Yu asked the owner of the homestay and knew that this was an unmarked town on the map called Baijin. There was a three-story platinum hot spring hotel not far from the homestay. There were a lot of cars parked at the door. Camping tourists.

Sitting cross-legged in the room, opening the window, looking to the southeast, the far end of the Daxue Mountain that plunges into the sky is'Mount Tokachi'.Xia Yu secretly said: "Inquire first, don't rush into the mountain."

At this time, there was a loud noise outside the courtyard.

When Xia Yu heard the sound and went out, she saw a few strong men in camouflage uniforms surrounding his jeep, pointing.

"What are you doing?!" He sullen his face, touching his bulging waist with one hand.

"This is your car?"

The mercenaries were stunned.

"nonsense!"

"Are you a member of the Lily of the Valley?" The mercenaries looked cautious.

Xia Yu didn’t answer. The mercenaries dispersed wittily, and the owner of the hotel was also quarreled. This is a middle-aged uncle in a kimono. He smiled and said, "Xia Yu, don’t be nervous, they have permission. The regular mercenaries of the certificates, who lived with me for half a month, came to investigate the monsters in the snowy mountains under the commission of the Furano City Government."

"Snow Mountain Monster?"

"Yes."

Speaking of this, the middle-aged uncle seemed worried and said: "Tokachi Dake is originally a volcano. There were several eruptions in the Edo period, which caused many disasters. About a month ago, Asahikawa and Furano. Organized an observation team into the mountain, and then disappeared!"

"Missing?"

"In fact, it was probably killed." The middle-aged uncle sighed. "There is a 10-member gourmet mercenary group accompanying it. It has been a month, but there is no news. Who can believe that they are still alive?"

Xia Yu heard it silently.

"Is the situation terrible on the Tokachi Mountain Snow Mountain?" he asked.

"If it was too bad, we would have moved back to the city long ago, didn't we?"

The middle-aged uncle smiled and walked away.

"By the way, uncle, do you have a professional kitchen available for rent in your town?" Xia Yu shouted from behind him.

"Then go to the hot spring hotel opposite!"

Xia Yu felt that he was going to stay in this town for two days.

In the past two days, he communicated with the God of Cooking Space to practice at night, and during the day he used the Internet or on the spot to search for all clues about Izumo Shrine.

...

Two days later.

The perspective turns back to Tokyo.

On October 3, after two weeks, the semi-finals of Yuanyue "Autumn Selection" officially kicked off at 10 o'clock this morning!

The first game was Hayama Ryo vs Morita Maki!

This duel was a great match. It not only ignited Yuanyue’s enthusiasm. Through the live TV screens, seeing the guest seats of "Between Moon and Sky" and the familiar faces, you can know that this autumn election was triggered. How much attention.

Backstage.

Morita Maki lay on the table, her mellow and exquisite face leaning in front of the screen, not seeing the nervousness about to appear.

"Ah, it's so beautiful, Daxueshan!"

She exclaimed, and the other end of the video communication was the snow-capped mountain outside the window of the hot spring hotel.

"Maki, I personally decided on the topic of the semi-finals. Two weeks have passed, can you control them..." Xia Yu's voice came from the mobile phone. He lay on the windowsill and asked with a smile to his childhood sweetheart in Tokyo.

"No problem—"

"Our group got the topic of'drinks', and the group of Xiaohui and Xinghei got the topic of'staple food'..." Maki Morita's eyes smiled like clear crescents. "The topic of'drinks' is very suitable for me. If it's the subject of the'main course', it will be tricky. I will probably lose to Ye Shanliang."

!

A staff member outside said: "Morita player, it's time to play!"

"Ok."

Morita Maki responded, she had changed into a white chef uniform and took her mobile phone.

The two maintained a video connection. Soon, the thunderous cries of "between the moon and the sky" spread to the hot spring hotel in the small town of Baijin. Xia Yu smiled and listened, looking at the vast wilderness outside the window. .

It was only three days away from the city, and the cheers of the stadium made him feel strange.

"Morita! Morita! Morita!"

"Come on!"

"Morita-senpai, I am your fan!"

Morita Maki stepped out from the passageway, and the fans of the support team immediately rushed. Her mobile phone camera focused on it, and Xia Yu was staring at the hot spring hotel.

In the entire area, everyone wore black robes, black pointed hats, and a prominent "f" letter printed on the front.

Seeing Morita look over, the leader of the fan group held up the wooden cross dyed orange-red, shouting slogans:

"burn!"

"Burn burn!"

"I wish there will be "qingren" in the world... and eventually become brothers and sisters!"

Fans shouted burning slogans in unison, "Between Moon and Sky" were shocked by the aura of this support group.

Maki Morita was embarrassed and quickly hid in her kitchen counter.

Ye Shanliang took a step ahead of her, standing coldly on the opposite kitchen counter.

"Ah, the players are already in place!"

The hostess Rei Kawashima coughed, "Yuanyue Academy, the 43rd "Autumn Selection" semi-finals, the first round, now begins!"

clang!

The sound of the golden gong spread.

"Ayu, I'm about to start!"

Morita Maki put the phone in a convenient position and focused on herself. Then, she put the prepared ingredients on the kitchen counter, and Kawashima Rei yelled, "It seems that contestants Hayama and contestants Morita have won. Lecturer Xia’s food support!"

On the kitchen counter are fresh fruits that were just picked not long ago. "Lemon Peach" is just one of them.

Wash the fruit first, use a sharp fruit knife to cut the fruit into pieces.

Pay attention to observation. It is not difficult to find that Morita uses seven different juicers to classify the fruits.

Then, in five different transparent glass drink cups, she first poured a dark brown juice, which is grape juice... Then, Maki held a jar full of homemade yogurt and poured it carefully with a spoon. Layer yogurt, a thin layer, about 2, 3 mm thick.

Then pour the orange juice with small particles of orange, and then spread a layer of yogurt.

So cycle.

Just half an hour after the cooking session, Maki Morita rang the passing bell and brought five cups of juice to the judging table.

"Density control?"

Maki did not forget to bring his mobile phone when serving the food, so Xia Yu was able to observe the whole process. He was secretly surprised at the hot spring hotel, "To turn seven kinds of juice with different densities into a glass of colorful juice in the compartment, this is necessary How many times do you practice?"

"And... why is the yogurt compartment so distinct?"

Xia Yu thought.
