Chapter 27 Amazing appetite
After sending Fatty Huo away, Chen Xian hurried back to his bedroom.
As soon as he opened the door, he found that the girl was not sitting on the bed waiting for him, but fell asleep with the quilt in her arms. Seeing her heartless appearance, she didn't seem to realize the seriousness of the problem at all.
Chen Xian stood at the door for a while, seeing that the girl had no tendency to wake up at all, he quietly closed the door and walked out from the back room secretly.
Taking advantage of this good opportunity when the follower was not there, Chen Xian took his wallet and went out to buy vegetables. The stock at home had already been eaten by them yesterday. But I don't like to eat takeout, I feel that the taste can't catch up with half of what I made myself.
In a farmer's market near Luoguxiang, Chen Xian wandered left and right and found a few familiar shops.
I bought 20 catties of beef, 10 catties of mutton, 10 catties of fresh prawns, two fresh pork knuckles, and some vegetables as accessories, which cost more than 2,000 in total.
For a long time, the shop owners at the farmers market thought that Chen Xian was running a small restaurant, but they never imagined that these were only Chen Xian's amount for a day.
How big is Chen Xian's appetite? It's hard to say, because he has never eaten enough. The most he ate in a single meal was when he was eighteen years old for his birthday. He ate 30 pounds of beef in one meal. He didn't eat him either, he just felt that he was about 80% full.
After the age of eighteen, his appetite will be a little smaller, and he can control it freely.
Just like now, the total amount of meat he eats every day can reach 30 catties, and sometimes 10 catties or 20 catties can make do, but the premise is to use vegetables and rice to fill his stomach, otherwise he will still feel hungry.
In addition to being a big eater, he has an exclusive skill.
For example, if he eats more in the morning and eats enough for the whole day, then he will not feel hungry all day, until after 24 hours, he will gradually feel hungry, and then he needs to continue eat.
This staggering amount of food has a great relationship with his special ability.
There are two special abilities that Chen Xian can call the bottom of the box. In addition to the self-healing ability that is so powerful that he will be afraid of himself, his other ability is that he can eat abnormal life. These lives include spiritual bodies but not only Limited to the spiritual body, the most prominent feature of his ability is that he has an excellent mouth.
Take the abnormal life that the dean in the burrow turned into as an example. Its skin tissue is extremely tough, and it can be said that it is invulnerable to bullets and bullets, but Chen Xian used a small white tooth to bite its defense line abruptly. .
From this point of view, Chen Xian's tooth mutation is not low, but this can only be regarded as a supplementary gift package for stomach mutation.
The stomach mutation brought great benefits to Chen Xian, allowing Chen Xian to create a unique codename of "Different Eater" in the Secret Service.
But this ability also has a downside, and it can be regarded as a physical defect.
His appetite cannot be controlled to the level of a normal person. Perhaps his body consumes too much energy every day, so he must use food to supplement it. Moreover, his desire to eat is far greater than that of ordinary people. When he is hungry, he wants to eat everything.
In order to make himself appear "normal" and avoid the appearance of being possessed by a hungry ghost, Chen Xian could only rely on diet therapy to suppress that strange desire to eat.
Although he eats a lot, it is undeniable that he is also a more particular person, and he is very picky about what he eats. Sometimes he is hungry when he is outside, and he would rather not eat and continue to be hungry and go home to cook by himself.
Maybe he was born with a talent for cooking, plus he is very persistent in the word "eat", and he especially likes to study this aspect, so his cooking skills are not much worse than that of chefs in restaurants outside.
Back at the old house, Chen Xian went to the bedroom to take a look and found that the girl was still sleeping.
"Is it a pig...I don't wake up until noon..."
Chen Xian muttered, and went to the kitchen with several large bags of ingredients.
The kitchen of the old house is not the same as the kitchen of a normal family. As soon as you enter the door, you can see the huge fire stove only in the hotel. All kinds of cooking utensils are readily available. The most conspicuous thing is the two large double-eared iron pots on the stove. thought was in the back kitchen of the hotel.
Turn on the range hood and heat up the oil.
Amid the clanging sound of the iron pan and the stir-frying spoon, Chen Xian started to get busy with his head down.
He divided the fresh ten catties of mutton into two, half of which was used to make delicious and nourishing radish and mutton stew, the other half was made into braised mutton with a heavier taste, and the ten catties of fresh prawns were all boiled. , so as to ensure that its most original umami will not be lost, dipped in the secret ginger garlic seafood sauce, it tastes so fresh that you can swallow your tongue.
The two pork knuckles didn't fall, and after letting Chen Xian clean them up, they were all made into braised knuckles.
This is also his specialty.
When out of the pot, the pork knuckle is red and shiny like jade, the flesh is crispy, and it is fat but not greasy. The fragrant soup is an excellent material for mixing white rice.
As for the 20 catties of beef, it was divided into a lot of detail. After all, beef was Chen Xian's favorite ingredient.
Beef in cold sauce, roast beef with potatoes, diced beef with cumin, shredded beef with spring onion...
By the time Chen Xian had prepared the meal, it was past one o'clock in the afternoon.
I went to the side room and brought a wooden round table for hotel use, placed it in the courtyard as it had been in the past, and went to the back room to bring two suitable chairs before serving.
"Gudu."
The girl woke up a long time ago. When Chen Xian just started heating the oil, she ran to the kitchen door in a hurry. Like a kitten waiting to be fed, she stared at Chen Xian and swallowed a few saliva from time to time. He wiped his mouth again.
When Chen Xian was serving the dishes, she also followed him without leaving a single step, she was completely possessed by a follower.
Originally, Chen Xian planned to ask her to help serve the dishes, but then she thought about it... According to her logic, she might start eating with her hands the next second she received the dishes.
Thinking of this, Chen Xian gave up that unrealistic idea and ran back and forth a few times with his head sullen, and only then did all the dozen or so dishes come together.
Most of the dishes were prepared in pots, and Chen Xian didn't care about the delicate work of arranging the dishes, as long as he could eat them anyway.
"use this."
Chen Xian handed the fork to the girl and motioned her to learn to eat with a fork, but what he never expected was that the girl's eyes instantly turned red, and she looked at Chen Xian pitifully, opening her pink toot. The little mouth made an "ahah" sound.
Seeing this scene, Chen Xian's face suddenly turned black.
Are you still trying to feed her?
Don't you have a hand!
"Eat it by yourself." Chen Xian frowned and said, helping her with a bowl of rice, then he also picked up a fork, while showing the girl a demonstration, while quickly sweeping the hot dishes in the pot.
The girl thought that Chen Xian didn't understand what she meant, and hurriedly brought her little face in front of Chen Xian, opened her mouth and screamed, looking very anxious.
Chen Xian just pretended he didn't see it, ate with his head down, and said nothing.
The girl was completely stunned.
She didn't expect Chen Xian to ignore her at all.
After two seconds, seeing the shrimp shells quickly piled up on the table, the girl decided to support herself.
"Um!"
"Well, good."
Although the girl's voice was full of anger, Chen Xian was still very relieved, especially when he saw the girl learn to eat with a fork, he felt like his own child had grown up... relieved!
It was also at this time that Chen Xian suddenly discovered that the girl ate very little vegetables, but instead ate a bowl of white rice in big mouthfuls.
"Do you like to eat rice?" Chen Xian asked while helping her to serve the rice.
This time, the girl seemed to understand Chen Xian's words and nodded lightly. Afraid that Chen Xian didn't understand her expression was wrong, she raised her finger and pointed to the rice cooker on the side.
"Then you eat more, there is not enough, I cooked three pots."
"Well!"
Chen Xian felt that he was about to die, and he had to serve the girl with vegetables and peel the shrimp shells for her. He was completely used as a nanny and mother.
"Oh...I really shouldn't have left you..." Chen Xian sighed helplessly.
"No." The girl replied.
"You're useless, I really regret it!" Chen Xian muttered, and went to help her with a bowl of rice.
Judging from his tone, Chen Xian seems to regret keeping the girl, but judging from his expression... the fact does not seem to be the case. He has always had a smile on his face, even if he said regret, the smile is not Not reduced by half.
Perhaps Chen Xian was not a person who liked loneliness at all, but found him alone, and he just didn't realize it.
"Learn it yourself, it's not difficult to peel the shrimp shell, you can take it seriously for me, take a good look at it and learn it." Chen Xian peeled the shrimp shell for her, looking a little impatient, and the tone of voice he said with a frown It's like a parent educating a child.
"Well!"
The girl blinked, as if she understood or not, but she still opened her mouth and waited for Chen Xian to throw the peeled shrimp in.
"Ugh, you bastard monkey..."
