Chapter 95: The Crazy Cooking Competition
After leaving the Elf Forest, Liu Yu and his companions traveled for several days and nights before arriving at a bustling town. As soon as they entered, they heard a commotion; it turned out a unique culinary competition was being held.
Liu Yu excitedly pulled Xu Xian and the others towards the stadium, saying as they ran, "We can't miss such an exciting competition!"
The arena was packed with people, and the chefs on stage were working feverishly. Liu Yu squeezed to the front and saw a chubby chef struggling to lift a large pot, the food inside almost overflowing.
The overweight chef, sweating profusely, exclaimed, "Oh dear, this pot is too heavy!"
Liu Yu couldn't help but laugh out loud: "This chef looks even funnier than the food he makes."
Just then, a tall, thin chef brought out a dish with a unique shape and said proudly, "This is my carefully crafted 'Dragon and Phoenix Dance'!"
Upon closer inspection, everyone realized that the so-called "dragon flying and phoenix dancing" was nothing more than a few carrot shreds arranged in a crooked shape, resembling a few small insects crawling.
Liu Yu laughed so hard she stomped her feet: "This can be called dragons flying and phoenixes dancing? I think it's more like insects crawling and ants walking!"
The audience around them burst into laughter.
The competition was in full swing when a chef accidentally added salt instead of sugar. After tasting his own dish, his expression turned as painful as if he had eaten a bitter herb.
Liu Yu joked, "This is going to be so salty it'll kill you!"
Xu Xian said, "Liu Yu, don't just laugh, let's learn from their cooking skills too."
Liu Yu waved her hand: "I don't have that kind of patience. It's enough for me to watch them make a fool of themselves."
At this point, the host announced that it was Liu Yu's group's turn to go on stage.
Liu Yu was dumbfounded: "What? We didn't register!"
The host said with a smile, "We added a group at the last minute; everyone wants to see what you're capable of."
With no other option, Liu Yu and the others had to bite the bullet and go on stage.
Liu Yu frantically chopped the vegetables, resulting in a messy and disorganized mess.
Xiaoqing was helping to cook, but accidentally flung the spatula into someone else's pot.
Bai Suzhen tried to salvage the situation, but accidentally made the fire too big while casting her spell, and black smoke billowed out of the pot.
The entire competition venue immediately descended into chaos, with other chefs complaining one after another.
Liu Yu said awkwardly, "This was purely an accident, an accident!"
Finally, they presented a plate of dark, unrecognizable "creations".
The judge took a bite, his face instantly turned green, and he covered his mouth and ran to the toilet.
Liu Yu scratched his head: "Looks like our cooking skills still need improvement."
The audience laughed until tears streamed down their faces.
The competition ended, and although Liu Yu and his team did not win any prizes, they brought endless joy to everyone.
They walked off the field, preparing to leave the town.
Suddenly, Liu Yu saw a steamed bun stall, and the aroma of steamed buns wafted over.
Liu Yu ran over and bought a few, but after taking a bite, she found that the buns were spoiled.
He angrily said to the stall owner, "Your buns are all spoiled, and you're still selling them!"
The stall owner said unreasonably, "Eat it or don't, there are still many people scrambling to buy it!"
Liu Yu got into an argument with the stall owner, which attracted a crowd of onlookers.
Xu Xian quickly came over to mediate: "Forget it, don't bother with him."
Liu Yu snorted: "I'll let you off this time!"
They continued walking and saw an old man performing acrobatics by the roadside.
The old man tossed several balls around, and suddenly one of them fell and hit his foot.
Liu Yu laughed out loud: "This technique is terrible!"
The old man glared at him: "Kid, don't cause trouble!"
Liu Yu made a face and pulled Xu Xian and the others away.
As they walked, they came to a small river.
Liu Yu saw fish in the river and decided to catch a few to take home for a meal.
He jumped into the river and struggled for a long time, but he didn't catch a single fish. Instead, he got himself covered in mud.
Xiaoqing laughed and said, "Brother-in-law, your fishing skills are really terrible."
Liu Yu said defiantly, "I refuse to believe it! I'm not going back until I catch some fish today!"
Just then, it suddenly started raining, and Liu Yu and the others quickly found a place to take shelter.
They ran into a dilapidated thatched hut where several people were already taking shelter from the rain.
An older woman said, "This rain came so suddenly."
A child said, "I want to go out and play again."
Liu Yu said, "Let's all wait together, maybe the rain will stop soon."
The rain kept falling, and everyone chatted in the thatched hut, sharing their interesting stories.
After a long time, the rain finally stopped, and Liu Yu and the others continued their journey...
