Chapter 18 Barbecue

Yan'er is a very patient girl. She moves gently but rhythmically and rotates the ingredients on the branches.

The original golden bird and rabbit meat gradually deepened under the cooking of the fire, turning into a dazzling burnt yellow color, and the aroma of meat food gradually spreads, smelling reminds people of the barbecue stall on the street late at night in midsummer.

Chen Zhe, who was sitting next to him drinking warm water leisurely, smelled the aroma of barbecue and couldn't help but come over.

"Yan'er's craftsmanship is very good, I can smell the fragrance." Chen Zhe said with a smile.

Yan'er didn't have any confidence in herself and said with some concern: "Although these ingredients have been processed and washed carefully several times, there are no cooking wine, star anise, onions and other fishy ingredients in the wild. I'm worried that these foods will not be delicious..."

Chen Zhe knew that what Yan'er said made sense. Bird meat and rabbit meat had more or less fishy smell. Without seasonings, the roasted meat products will inevitably be undesirable.

"It's okay, Yan'er, since we are surviving in the wilderness, we can't pursue taste too much. It's already great to be able to fill our stomachs." Chen Zhe said comfortingly.

Yan'er smiled and nodded: "Okay then."

After saying that, she looked at the bird meat and poked it with another sharpened wooden stick.

Pointing the browned skin outside, the white and tender bird meat inside was exposed. Yan'er took a look and nodded with satisfaction and said, "Brother Chen, it seems that the bird meat is already roasted, but rabbit meat is a little harder to cook than bird meat, so you have to roast it for a while..."

Chen Zhe smiled and said, "It's great, I've eaten bird meat."

Yan'er handed the bird meat to Chen Zhe and asked, "Does Brother Chen want to taste it first?"

"Then I'll try it."

Chen Zhe was not polite either, so he took the bird's flesh and took a bite.

Yan'er's craftsmanship is really good. She actually roasted the big bird to the outside and tender on the inside. The skin on the outside has a crispy oily skin, which is a bit like the duck skin of a roast duck. The meat inside is tender and juicy, and it can spray oil after taking a bite.

However, as Yan'er was worried, the meat of this big bird was a bit fishy, ​​and there was no seasoning to remove the fishy smell of the meat itself, which made the roasted bird meat strange.

Chen Zhe chewed a few bites and couldn't help but frown gently, but in order to prevent Yan'er from feeling sad when she saw it, he immediately squeezed out a smile.

"How is it taste? Brother Chen." Yan'er asked curiously, "Will it be very unpalatable without the seasoning to remove the fishy smell?"

"It's not bad or not!" Chen Zhe quickly shook his head, "It tastes pretty good!"

"Really?" Yan'er asked happily, "It tastes good without seasoning?"

"Of course it's true..." Chen Zhe said guiltily, "Yan'er's craftsmanship is the best."

And at the same time.

The live broadcast room has cut the camera to Chen Zhe and Yan'er's group.

Although Yan'er did not see Chen Zhe's frowning at the beginning, netizens saw it.

Everyone understood Chen Zhe’s thoughts and couldn’t help but be warmed by his actions.

"Chen Zhe is really good. In order to take care of Yan'er's mood, he pretended to say that the roasted bird was delicious."

"A lie of good intentions."

"These two people give people a very warm feeling, it's really great."

"Chen Zhe is such a heartwarming person."

“…”

However, some netizens questioned this:

"Do you know if it's delicious or not? Yan'er will taste it later?"

"I really don't know what the use of lying like this."

"It's hard to eat, it's hard to eat, it's good to eat, to be honest, is it that difficult?"

“…”

Seeing that netizens began to discuss heatedly, host Zhu Ranran immediately started the topic: "We saw that Yan'er's roasted bird meat didn't seem to be delicious, but Chen Zhe pretended to be happy to eat. I have to say that the mutual support in this difficult environment is really touching..."

Several experts next to him had different reactions to this. Some nodded slightly, while others shook their heads frequently.

Zhu Ranran is very smart. She knew that because of the previous incident, the expert named Meng had always had a lot of opinions about Chen Zhe's group of amateurs, so she deliberately asked Meng expert: "Teacher Meng, do you think the bird meat roasted by Yan'er is delicious or not delicious?"

Expert Meng smiled: "The meat of wild birds is often fishy, ​​astringent, and even has a sour taste. Not to mention that the meat of this bird is marinated with seasoning for a day without seasonings, it is still very difficult to eat..."

Zhu Ranran suddenly realized: "Oh... I understand, what Teacher Meng means is... this bird meat is not delicious, right?"

"Yes." The expert named Meng nodded.

Zhu Ranran looked at Chen Zhe who was eating with relish in the camera and speculated: "So, the reason why Chen Zhe can eat so much is because this is the ingredients cooked by Yan'er himself, so there is a bonus to emotional food?"

Several experts nodded slightly, all agreeing with Zhu Ranran's speculation.

...

And Chen Zhe's side.

He actually only pretended that the bird meat was delicious at the beginning.

Because after taking a bite, he found that the bird meat was indeed fishy and sour, just like roast duck that had been stored for several days.

Even if he can eat this kind of food with his nose, Yan'er will definitely not be able to withstand this kind of suffering.

But this doesn't matter, because Chen Zhe has a system.

Item upgrade system.

Hold the bird meat in your hand and take a closer look.

Subtitles pop up next to the bird meat:

【Detected item: a pure natural roasted wild bird.】

【Item durability: 42/50.】

[Item value: 67 yuan.]

[Does it cost 50 popularity points to upgrade the item?]

Chen Zhe immediately chose to upgrade and spent 50 popularity points.

Currently, the system background still has about 500 popularity points, which is enough for him to use.

The subtitles of bird meat change immediately:

【Detected Item: A roasted wild bird with a flat taste.】

【Item durability: 50/50.】

[Item value: 89 yuan.]

[Does 100 popularity points be used to upgrade items?]

Chen Zhe looked at it: "Well... the taste is mediocre, this is not enough. He was so busy that he was exhausted all over the day. He had to eat some good things to compensate himself."

Choose upgrade again!

Spend 100 popularity points.

This time, the roasted wild bird changed again, from "a roasted wild bird with a flat taste" to "a delicious roasted wild bird".

"That should be enough." Chen Zhe thought quietly in his heart, then picked up the bird's meat and ate it.

It still has a crispy appearance and elastic flesh. Chen Zhe took a bite and the bird meat could splash oil.

However, this time the bird meat not only has no fishy or sour taste, but also has a sweet taste, just like a high-quality roast duck, which is very delicious.

"Well! This bird's meat is really good!" Chen Zhe exclaimed sincerely.

"Really?" Yan'er next to her couldn't help but wonder, would the bird meat that had not been marinated with seasonings really be good?

Chen Zhe did not explain, but handed over the bird meat directly and said with a smile: "You can try it quickly. After a bite, you will know that I am not lying to you."

Yan'er took it and took a bite, and her eyes widened.

"Oh my God! This is too delicious, right? It's just like roast duck..." Yan'er couldn't help but exaggerate surprise.

But this is not a performance, but an amazement from the true feelings.

Yan'er's family is not good. She has only eaten roast duck twice since she was a child. And it is not the roast duck bought from a roast duck restaurant, but the one that costs 15 yuan and a half at a roadside stall.

But the roasted bird meat in her hand was not inferior to the roast ducks she had eaten. It can even be said that the roasted bird meat in her hand was more delicious than all the roast ducks she had eaten!

For her, this was an unexpected surprise.
