Chapter 364

Qin Huai was a bit dazed when he left the memory; he didn't expect to leave so suddenly. He thought he would at least wait until the buns were wrapped, steamed, and out of the pot, and Shi Dadan tasted the complete bun before he would leave the memory; after all, this was the normal process.

As a result, Shi Dadan only ate one bite of the filling, and the memory ended.

Is this bun filling that delicious?

When Qin Huai came back to his senses, he saw Shi Dadan eating shaved ice and looking at him with a smile.

Seeing Qin Huai move, Shi Dadan said with great surprise: "Xiao Qin, it's really just like what you said just now; when you are looking at memories, you are in a daze, and under normal circumstances, you can't even tell, thinking you are just distracted."

"How long was I distracted?" Qin Huai asked.

"Two or three minutes, I guess." Shi Dadan said, "Look, I only ate half a bowl of shaved ice. This shaved ice tastes good, you should try it quickly, lest it melts in a while."

Qin Huai felt that Shi Dadan was probably the first person who knew he had just looked at his memory, and after he finished watching, his first reaction wasn't to ask what he had just seen, but to let him eat shaved ice.

Qin Huai picked up the spoon and ate a bite of the shaved ice in front of him, not feeling it was particularly delicious, just feeling it was very normal, the level a normal dessert shop should have.

"Aren't you curious about what I just saw?" Qin Huai asked.

"A little curious, but you will definitely tell me. And in my previous life, I actually didn't eat anything good; all the good food I ate was given to me by Xu Nuo, my money was all with Xu Nuo. Was it the dim sum made by Master Jing?" Shi Dadan was very frank.

"I have to check this first." Qin Huai said, pointing into the void, clicking on the game panel to check the recipe.

Although Qin Huai had already guessed that this recipe might not be a complete dish, he was still a bit surprised when he saw it.

【Pork and Crab Roe Filling A-level】

Creator: Xu Nuo

Dish details: A spirit creature who mastered a skill, using his exquisite skills and newly learned production concepts to make a unique filling. This is one of the few fillings Xu Nuo spent effort researching in his short life, and it is also one of the few fillings Shi Dadan ate that he felt was delicious and left a deep impression. For Shi Dadan, this is a bun filling with special significance that his best friend Xu Nuo researched and made specifically for him, and he was the first to taste it; it is a witness to their friendship. When using this dish to make dim sum, and the dim sum level is not lower than A-level, eating it with friends has a very high probability of recalling the happiest times spent with friends and savoring the joy of friendship.

Number of times can be made per day: (0/500)

Qin Huai noticed the keyword in the dish details.

Best friend.

If the one Shi Dadan hit and killed was his own kind, and also his best friend, then failing the tribulation because of this is also reasonable.

Qin Huai read the dish details again, closed the game panel, and looked at Shi Dadan, finding Shi Dadan looking at him with very expectant eyes, his face full of "tell me, tell me."

Qin Huai organized his language slightly and briefly recounted the plot he saw in the memory.

Shi Dadan's memory was actually very short and easy to tell; Qin Huai finished in just over three minutes.

Shi Dadan listened very seriously, even not eating the shaved ice while listening, and after listening, he nodded in agreement: "I remember this crab roe and pork bun; that day Xu Nuo wrapped 60 pork buns. His house doesn't usually light a fire, and they use a coal stove for boiling and stir-frying, so steaming buns is inconvenient."

"Later, the two of us went to the state-run restaurant and borrowed Master Jing's kitchen to steam the buns. Those buns were indeed particularly delicious; I ate 35 in one breath, Xu Nuo gave me 10 to take back to eat as an extra meal the next morning, and he took the remaining 15 home."

"Later, he made similar buns several times, which were crab roe and fish, crab roe and chicken, and crab roe and duck; only the crab roe and chicken one was slightly more delicious, the crab roe and fish and crab roe and duck ones were not delicious."

"Then it was that he couldn't help it and secretly went to Hangcheng, using the money his grandmother gave him to talk about marriage, plus the money he had saved before, to buy that bun recipe. That bun is the double crab bun you mentioned, Xiao Qin."

"But after he bought the recipe, he gave it to Master Jing and didn't make it himself. After all, that recipe was too expensive; I don't know exactly how much money he spent, but Factory Manager Xu was very angry."

"Not only did he cut off his pocket money, but he also didn't allow Xu Nuo's grandmother to give him extra money. Relying only on my salary and money tickets, Xu Nuo couldn't get that much white flour. He couldn't even buy much white flour, let alone sea cucumber, so after Xu Nuo bought the recipe, he actually didn't make double crab buns much."

"He always ate the ones Master Jing made."

"The matter of him spending a sky-high price to buy the recipe was almost known to everyone in the several state-run factories at that time. Master Jing wanted to give the money for buying the recipe to Xu Nuo, but that amount of money was too much for Master Jing to take out, so Master Jing could only try his best to make more dim sum for him to eat."

"Later, Xu Nuo seemed to have made double crab buns once, but at that time I went to the south to deliver goods, running long distances, and didn't eat it."

Hearing Shi Dadan say this, Qin Huai roughly sorted out the plot.

The double crab buns Wang Gensheng wanted to eat could almost certainly be confirmed as being made by Xu Nuo, which was the only time Xu Nuo made double crab buns as Shi Dadan said.

And Xu Nuo's motivation for buying the double crab bun recipe was also very clear, because this recipe was not ordinary, or rather, the production idea was very unique.

As for exactly what was unique, Xu Nuo had already said it very clearly in the memory.

In a sense, the double crab bun is a bit like the Guo'er, but also very different. The Guo'er is a red-case chef forcibly making white-case dim sum, so it leads to this dim sum being very delicious but also a bit awkward, the forcefulness is very obvious and can be seen from the recipe.

But the double crab bun is more about showing off skills.

It is a powerful white-case chef wanting to prove that his red-case level is not bad, having a feeling of "you say I can't do this, so I insist on doing it this way," an unconventional feeling.

Qin Huai now even feels that Wang Gensheng's recipe was actually improved.

This is actually very reasonable. Back then, Xu Nuo spent a sky-high price to buy the recipe and gave it to Master Jing. With Master Jing's level, he could research a crab roe sauce version of the double crab bun, and naturally, he could also carry out higher-level improvements to the original double crab bun.

The double crab bun was originally a work of showing off skills; Master Jing could make it show off skills even more, removing the abruptness from the originally slightly abrupt unconventionality, leaving only uniqueness, making the balance between its red-case and white-case parts very good, even worthy of being called a surprise.

And this difficulty cannot be seen just from the recipe. When Qin Huai first saw the double crab bun recipe, he felt this recipe was a high-difficulty nanny-level tutorial.

Master Jing was afraid that the person buying this recipe wouldn't understand it, so he wrote every step very finely. As long as you are an insider, you can see at a glance that this recipe is very powerful, has a lot of technical content, is very impressive, and the dim sum finally made must be very top-tier.

But setting aside the gold content of the recipe itself, Master Jing wrote this recipe down and gave it to Xu Nuo, and Xu Nuo gave the recipe to Wang Gensheng, because Wang Gensheng needed to sell the recipe to raise money at that time.

This improved version of the recipe must look more valuable than the original version, and easier to sell for a high price in a short time.

Because its skill-showing is written on paper, but the difficulty is hidden between the lines. Qin Huai and Zheng Siyuan and others really started to research, and after practicing hard for a long time without results, they truly realized how high the difficulty of this recipe was.

And Xu Nuo's cooking level, Qin Huai had already seen in the memory; it was stronger than his, but not much stronger.

If Xu Nuo could make double crab buns, Qin Huai could also with high probability.

After listening to Shi Dadan finish the later events, Qin Huai pondered for a moment, clicked on the game panel to read the dish details again, and recalled in his mind the production idea of the double crab buns that Xu Nuo explained to Shi Dadan in the memory and the ideas he tried.

"Is Xu Nuo's red-case level also not bad? Red-case is stir-frying." Qin Huai asked.

Shi Dadan nodded: "Xu Nuo's stir-frying is quite delicious, much stronger than the chefs in our textile mill, but not as delicious as the dim sum he makes." "But Xu Nuo doesn't stir-fry much either. He has a particularly good relationship with Master Jing. Usually, either Master Jing makes a special meal for him, and he packs the dishes and brings them back for me to eat together, or he just stays in the state-run restaurant and eats the staff meal with Master Jing and the others."

"Anyway, he gives money and tickets, so it doesn't break the rules. Sometimes at the end of the month when there is no money or tickets, Master Jing will also cover for him, and the people in the state-run restaurant are also very familiar with him. Actually, I think it's quite good for him to go to the state-run restaurant to be a chef, but Factory Manager Xu doesn't agree; Factory Manager Xu is determined to let Xu Nuo take the college entrance exam."

"At that time, I didn't quite understand, but now thinking about it, I feel it might be because Xu Nuo didn't sincerely want to go to the state-run restaurant to be a chef either; he just didn't want to take the college entrance exam and was seen through by Factory Manager Xu. If he really wanted to be a chef, Factory Manager Xu should have agreed."

"After all, his skills are really quite good."

Qin Huai nodded and didn't speak.

Seeing Qin Huai didn't speak, Shi Dadan didn't speak either, and started burying his head in eating tangyuan. After eating two, he might have felt this tangyuan also tasted quite good, pushed the bowl toward Qin Huai, and invited: "This tangyuan is also quite delicious, do you want to try it?"

Qin Huai could see that Shi Dadan was purely a lover of food; as long as the taste was normal, it was delicious.

Qin Huai had made four-joy tangyuan for so long; whether a tangyuan was good or not could be seen just by looking at the appearance. The tangyuan Shi Dadan was eating, Qin Huai could see at a glance that it was an ordinary quick-frozen tangyuan that could be bought in any supermarket.

Just now in the memory, Qin Huai hadn't seen Xu Nuo's level of stir-frying filling, it was okay but not particularly good. It was the level of an ordinary restaurant red-case chef, on par with Dong Shi, slightly stronger than Dong Li.

It couldn't compare to Zang Liang.

Of course, it was definitely much stronger than Qin Huai; Qin Huai still had very self-awareness about his own level.

Qin Huai tasted a bite of the tangyuan to be polite, confirmed that this was an ordinary quick-frozen tangyuan boiled into a premium-priced tangyuan, looked around, and found the shop was still deserted, with the boss sitting in the corner playing with his phone.

Very safe.

"I'll watch the video tutorial." Qin Huai said, pointing into the void, and started watching the video tutorial.

The video tutorial was the whole process of the filling production he saw in the memory, all close-up shots, and at the same time, you could hear the sound, and the explanation between Xu Nuo and Shi Dadan was all in it.

Qin Huai watched very seriously.

He watched it over and over again.

Qin Huai felt this was probably the video tutorial he could understand the most and gain the most from. Not only because Xu Nuo's level was only slightly higher than his, and he could understand all of Xu Nuo's movements and ideas, but the most critical thing was that this video tutorial had explanations.

Because Shi Dadan had only learned to be human for a few years at that time, and his cultural level was only at the second-grade elementary school level. Xu Nuo's explanation was very detailed, which could be said to be broken down and crushed, fearing Shi Dadan wouldn't understand the idea.

By the time Qin Huai finished watching the 5th time, all the food in front of Shi Dadan had been eaten.

Qin Huai could see Shi Dadan was a bit full, but it might be because he was too bored, so he wanted to eat a little more. Judging from the amount of food he had just finished, the appetite of the Dang Kang after successfully passing the tribulation was as amazing as in the first life.

Qin Huai wanted to go back to make crab roe and pork filling buns.

Although Xu Nuo's filling was made with fresh crab roe, Qin Huai didn't know if it was reasonable to use crab roe sauce, but he really wanted to make it.

He watched the video tutorial 5 times in a row; he now truly understood Xu Nuo's understanding and ideas, and he agreed very much. He felt Xu Nuo might not have a very powerful level, but his ideas must be very top-tier.

He might only have the dim sum cooking level of A-level, but he definitely had the dim sum philosophy of S-level.

Xu Nuo's master must be very powerful.

"Old Shi, call Sister Hong and the others and ask if they are willing to go back now; I really want to go back to make buns now." Qin Huai said.

Shi Dadan nodded and immediately called Chen Huihong on WeChat.

It took several calls for Chen Huihong to answer. Shi Dadan said a few words, hung up, and said: "Chen Huihong and Xiao Qu still have several projects they haven't played, and don't want to go back now. Old Luo wants to go back, but he doesn't want to ride in the same car as me."

"They let us go back first; Chen Huihong said she would let her younger brother's driver pick them up later."

Qin Huai felt this was also fine, took out his phone and sent a message to Zheng Siyuan, indicating that he had something to do and had to leave first, then looked up and asked Shi Dadan: "Then Old Shi, are you going back with me or continuing to play in the amusement park? Why don't you go find Sister Hong and the others..."

Qin Huai hadn't even finished speaking when he was interrupted by Shi Dadan. Shi Dadan smiled honestly and said: "I'm also about full, I'll go back with you."

Qin Huai: 6

Qin Huai felt it was also quite good, because he happened to have something he wanted to ask Shi Dadan on the way. The two left decisively, and until they got in the car, Zheng Siyuan hadn't replied to Qin Huai's message, probably still on the amusement rides and not finished.

Either on the pirate ship or the drop tower, it was also hard for Zheng Siyuan and Ouyang.

Navigating back to Yunzhong Canteen, Qin Huai drove slowly out of the amusement park parking lot. This time Shi Dadan sat in the passenger seat, and Qin Huai asked casually in a daily chatting tone: "Old Shi, do you know how Xu Nuo failed the tribulation?"

"Don't know." Shi Dadan shook his head.

"Xu Nuo didn't tell you?"

Shi Dadan thought for a while: "I guess so, but he didn't deliberately not tell me; it's that he himself doesn't remember either."

"Doesn't remember?" Qin Huai was a bit surprised, "I know spirit creatures will gradually lose their memories during the tribulation process, but will it reach the point of not remembering why they failed the tribulation?"

"Yes." Shi Dadan nodded affirmatively, "I actually told Old Luo about this last night. This feeling of forgetting is actually very wonderful; you feel you remember many things, but when you want to recall details or very key points, you will find that you actually don't remember."

"Xu Nuo knows he is a spirit creature, and also knows he failed the tribulation, but he actually doesn't remember what his obsession is; he does things more by intuition. Spirit creatures that fail the tribulation, even if they lose the most key memories, their intuition remains; this intuition is carved into their bones."

"This is also why Xu Nuo is usually idle, because he doesn't know what he should do either. You say he is human, he is not completely human; he knows he is a spirit creature, he knows he needs to resolve his obsession and pass the tribulation, but he doesn't know how he should do it. He can't really live step-by-step like an ordinary person either. Factory Manager Xu wants him to take the college entrance exam, he doesn't want to take it, he doesn't even want to take it himself, which shows his obsession has nothing to do with taking the college entrance exam."

"In the middle few lives, spirit creatures seem to have many opportunities to pass the tribulation, but missing memories and chaotic memories will cause them great obstacles and difficulties. As long as a spirit creature fails the tribulation, it is impossible to pass the tribulation easily."

"I know Old Luo is annoyed with me; I mumbled so much to him last night, and it was a bit like preaching to educate him, but I really wanted to tell him more things while he hadn't been reincarnated yet."

Qin Huai smiled and said: "Old Shi, you now are really very different from the you I just saw in the memory."

Shi Dadan gave an honest smile: "That must be different; how long had I learned to be human at that time? Now I have been human for decades."

"Being human is also very difficult and hard; I also spent many years learning how to be human."
