Chapter 22 Full of color, fragrance and taste

There was a lot of meat and it couldn't be stewed at one time, so Yu Sheng processed it into several dishes with different preparations.
The so-called first time raw, second time ripe, third time green onions and ginger plus cooking wine - ancient humans in the early stages of civilization probably followed this process to gradually explore and try out the gifts of nature.
Yu Sheng hummed a tune, cut the largest part of the meat into large pieces, poured it in boiling water to skim off the blood foam, then put star anise, fennel, cloves, cinnamon and other stew ingredients in a casserole, put the meat in and added enough water and salt.
, soy sauce and cooking wine to remove the fishy smell, put them on the stove and simmer slowly.
While the meat was stewing, he stir-fried the remaining meat with chili peppers and garlic sprouts in two plates. After a little taste, he felt that it was fragrant and delicious, not old or raw, and the meat was tender and smooth, but he couldn't tell what the flavor was like.
Which kind of meat, just in terms of taste, it's a bit close to very tender beef.
What's left is going to be processed into bacon and stored after he's sure it's OK after eating this time... Or, after it's marinated and matured, he'll dehydrate it in an air fryer and make it into bacon jerky? He hasn't done this before, and he doesn't know if it can be done.
It can’t be done…
Various ideas were running through Yu Sheng's mind. He felt like a scientist who had the courage to try, exploring possibilities in a field that no one had ever touched before.
So he explored the kitchen for nearly two hours. After a lot of work, he finally opened the door, and then moved the cups and dishes and the casserole for stewed meat to the dining room table one by one.
In the oil painting, Irene looked at Yu Sheng busy there with horrified eyes, and her face showed two kinds of expressions at the same time: "Forget it, I'm tired, let him go" and "You can't, you fucking can't".
With completely opposite contradictory expressions, after a while, she finally said uncontrollably: "You don't really plan to eat it, do you? This is something brought from a foreign land! Don't eat yourself to death!"
Yu Sheng raised his head and glanced at Irene: "What if I tell you that I have eaten there twice?"
The conflicting expression on Erin's face disappeared in an instant, leaving only horror: "...Ah?!"
"You see, I'm still alive and kicking, so I should be fine. It's a pity to throw away this trophy that I finally got back," Yu Sheng said matter-of-factly, "Do you know about hunting? This is what I will hunt - sooner or later.
One day, I’m going to get the whole thing back and let it know who’s on top of the food chain!”
Eileen did not respond, and Yu Sheng looked at the dumbfounded expression of the doll lady, and asked again out of curiosity: "But then again, no one has really tried the 'entity' in the foreign land?
Didn’t you say they have everything? There should be no shortage of things that look edible."
"Who would try this!" Irene looked crazy, "I don't know if it has any weird properties. Even if it's poisonous, it's good. How could you put it in your mouth like this! And you still eat it.
Two...did you really eat twice?"
"Yeah, but the first two times were sashimi. The situation was very urgent at that time. There was no time to process it. It was an emergency where if you don't eat it quickly, you will die." Yu Sheng said casually and sat down opposite Irene.
, casually picked up a piece of meat with chopsticks and threw it into his mouth, eating it with gusto.
Eileen was stunned for a while after hearing this: "Then...then what was your reaction after eating?"
"I'll die after eating it." Husheng said frankly.
"Then you still..." Irene screamed subconsciously at first, and then she felt something was wrong - but she didn't know about Yu Sheng's "resurrection from the dead", so she just felt that the other party was teasing her, and she felt a little bit
Staring angrily, "I'm serious!"
Yu Sheng grinned, looking at the angry puppet in the oil painting and burst into laughter.
He found that he already started to like bickering with this puppet.
Anyway, the other party couldn't jump out of the painting and give him a blow.
He still hasn't explained his "resurrection from the dead" to Irene. On the one hand, Irene can't detect the process of his death at this stage, and explaining it seems like a lie. On the other hand, he doesn't understand what happened to him.
There were too many conjectures about the changes waiting to be confirmed, and he hoped to discuss them with Irene after he figured out some more things.
Eileen didn't know how many messy thoughts there were behind Yu Sheng's narrow smile. She just couldn't help but glance at the sumptuous food on the table again, and then looked at Yu Sheng's chewing movements in a daze.
It looks... quite appetizing, and after processing, the color is no different from ordinary meat. The weird appearance at the beginning is completely gone.
"……Is it tasty?"
The puppet in the painting finally couldn't hold it in any longer and asked pretending not to care.
Yu Sheng suddenly laughed, as if he had expected this scene, he picked up the empty bowl and plate that had been placed on the table, filled a portion of food and broth for Irene, and placed them in front of the oil painting.
"I didn't say I wanted to..." Irene muttered.
Yu Sheng said casually: "You can't really eat it anyway, so you don't have to worry about the ingredients of these things, right?"
Erin thought about it and felt it made sense: "Yes, yes?"
Then she became calm again, and in front of the dishes and chopsticks placed by Yu Sheng, she once again appeared in a state where her voice and appearance were still smiling.
Halfway through the meal, the two of them couldn't help but return to their previous discussion about "professionals."
"Actually, no one has come to you yet. There is another possibility," Erin said while holding the teddy bear and sitting very close to the edge of the frame, thinking, "That is that some organization or official has actually
They noticed something was wrong here, but due to their professional judgment, they felt that they could not act immediately, or they had not yet accurately located the foreign connection point and relevant information, so they could only arrange surveillance methods first."
"Surveillance?"
"Yes, maybe there are a lot of plainclothes people watching you outside your house now. After all, you ran back from a foreign land before anyone could rescue you. Whether it's because of your strength or luck, you are specialized in dealing with this kind of thing anyway.
People didn’t have time to take action, and most of them didn’t have time to position themselves. Naturally,
We can only arrange surveillance around the area first... You can first pay attention to whether there are any strange faces around here in the past two days. Maybe they are plainclothes agents, plainclothes detectives, plainclothes investigators, etc., which is just something you can pay attention to by the way.
, without delay, go look for small advertisements on nearby telephone poles..."
Yu Sheng ignored the other party's remarks about "small advertisements on telephone poles" and instead looked up at the window.
Eileen said simply, pay attention to whether there are any strange faces around here - how could he know which one is a strange face! He has only stayed here for two months, and the cat was at home almost the whole time for the previous month, plus he
He is a bit face-blind, so half of the people in this place must be unfamiliar faces to him!
"Do you think the pancake seller at the intersection looks like a plainclothes guy?" After looking suspiciously out of the window for a long time, Yu Sheng and Irene murmured.
"I don't know, I can't see."
"Oh, yes, I forgot," Yu Sheng reacted, quickly got up, picked up Irene's picture frame, and put it in front of the window not far away, facing the outside, "The one over there..."
"It's not like that."
"So sure?"
"Nonsense, a set of sausages and eggs takes fifty seconds. If it were a plainclothes man, he wouldn't even be able to understand it."
"...That's true, but look at the guy next to you with a cell phone protector?"
"It's not like that - my hands and feet are too quick."
"Oh...hey, look..."
"Don't look at it. It's useless for you to be suspicious. Besides, if you were a professional follower, you definitely wouldn't be able to tell." Irene interrupted Yu Sheng, "If you don't have the time to guess, you might as well go out for a walk these two days."
, you have been tainted with the aura of a foreign land, and those professionals will definitely see it at a glance when you get close."
"...Hey, that's right too."
Yu Sheng sighed, unable to refute the other party, so he turned around and went back to clear away the dishes on the dining table.
As a result, as soon as he turned his head, he heard Eileen shouting from behind: "Put me back first! I'm still lying on the window!"
Yu Sheng sighed helplessly again, turned around and moved Irene off the window sill while muttering: "Hey, it's really troublesome."
"Then you can get me a body as soon as possible, and I can run away by myself," Irene in the oil painting raised her eyelids, looked at Yu Sheng who was putting herself on the dining table, and then added,
"I feel like I've become more familiar with you today, so I'll ask again..."
When Yu Sheng heard this, the corner of his mouth couldn't help but tremble.
When Erin discussed the "Escape Plan" with him before, she did say that the two of them were not familiar enough, so cooperation in this area would have to wait until both parties became familiar with each other before discussing it. However, he did not expect that this doll's criterion for judging "familiarity" was actually
So flexible.
"Besides, I'm busy with things right now. At least I'll finish my busy work for a while..."
"Yeah, that's fine," Eileen said, but she was a little disappointed and nodded, "Then don't forget it!"
Then she was quiet for a while, and then she started beeping again as she watched Yu Sheng clearing the dishes on the table: "What are you going to do next? Are you ready to go out to find the telephone pole?"
"You can't get along with the telephone pole, right?" Yu Sheng immediately glared at her, "I'm going to go upstairs to sleep now! After so many things, I'm almost exhausted!"
Erin said oh and raised her finger to point to the TV opposite the picture frame.
"Then can you fix the TV first? Suddenly there is no signal and I can't watch anything..."
Yu Sheng: "..."
After a moment, he let out an extremely heavy sigh.
Chapter completed!
