“I support Boss Qin!”
“Luosifen is the best!”
“I cast my vote for Boss Qin too!”
“No more words needed, it must be Boss Qin!”
“Even though my vote doesn’t mean much, I’ll give it to Boss Qin!”
With the expressions of their preferences after tasting two delicious foods, the competition between Qin Lang and Shen Qian ended once again with Qin Lang’s victory.
After tasting the Luosifen, Shen Qian was not too surprised about this result, but it allowed her to know more about Qin Lang’s Recipe Sea.
This freak, he even mastered such a niche food!
“I found it weird. When I first smelled Luosifen, I couldn’t stand the smell, but after tasting it, I found it delicious. Why is that?”
A girl named Kong Rong from the group of five reviewed the faint aroma lingering in the air, her face reflecting confusion, “Does the aroma of Luosifen change over time?”
“No, the taste of Luosifen does not change.” Qin Lang smiled.
He thought of a theory from his previous life that could explain the situation at hand.
“Before you tasted Luosifen, the smell you sensed was the true smell of Luosifen, but after tasting it, what you smell is no longer the actual smell.” “Not real? What do you mean?” Shen Qian was intrigued.
“After you tasted Luosifen, your brain would associate the smell of Luosifen and its savoury taste and texture into the concept of ‘Luosifen’.” Qin Lang smiled mysteriously.
This means that any element related to this memory, once triggered, will cause an association with other memories.”
“Even if you didn’t taste it, just smelling it would automatically fill in the relevant information about the taste and texture of Luosifen, making it more tangible.”
“Therefore, when you smell Luosifen after tasting it, you will feel that the smell has changed, that it’s become better.”
“In fact, it’s not the aroma that has changed, but the fact that you associate the aroma with the distinct taste of Luosifen, thereby overriding your initial resistance to the smell.”
“So that’s why!” Shen Qian realized, “When I first tried strange meatballs, I couldn’t stand the smell, but after trying it once, I no longer felt that way. So it was my brain fooling me.”
The rest of the group looked thoughtful, clearly gaining some insights from Qin Lang’s explanation.
“However…” looking at the enlightened six, Qin Lang continued, “You could also say that the initial smell you sensed was fake, and the one you smell now is the real thing.”
Shen Qian:”???”
Group of five:”???”
Even the two kids eavesdropping nearby were surprised by Qin Lang’s sudden twist.
“A food item stimulates the senses of a taster through sight, smell, and taste. If you separate texture from taste, then touch should also be added to the equation.”
Qin Lang paused. “I believe this is the depth of delicious food. You can only see the full picture by exploring it from different angles.”
“If you only understand it from one aspect, the food is incomplete.”
“So, if you can associate Luosifen’s taste, shape and texture with its smell, then it is the real taste of Luosifen?” Sun Yan continued the conversation.
“Yes.” Qin Lang gave a slight nod, then his face turned slightly bashful. “However, this is just my personal opinion. It might be biased.”
“No! I think this idea is right!” Shen Qian cut him off, her eyes were shiny, as if they were filled with light. “A lot of foods are not appreciated due to certain flaws, but once they are tried, their uniqueness is apparent.”
“Just like stinky but delicious Luosifen!” Lan Le nodded in agreement. Shen Qian’s words highly resonated with him, who enjoys trying new things.
“Cough, true, but you don’t need to try everything, after all, you’re not Shen Nong.” Qin Lang coughed lightly, thinking it’s necessary to remind.
“What’s Shen Nong?”
“That’s not important.”
After lunch, the group of five chatted cordially with Qin Lang and Shen Qian.
All of them were spirit chefs and foodies, their discussion about food was boundless, could run into days and nights.
Not until night fell and they shared a hot pot meal cooked by Qin Lang, did the group of five reluctantly part ways.
“Thankyou for your hospitality, Boss Qin.” said Sun Yan, the leader among the group of five, their faces filled with joy.
It was a rare opportunity for them to meet their idol on a ship and not only taste his cooking, but also learn a lot from the exchange.
Moreover, such an outstanding spirit chef like Qin Lang was so easy to approach in person, which was quite unexpected for them.
“Both the Luosifen at noon and the hot pot in the evening were foods I’ve never had before!” Kong Rong seemed quite excited, “It’s just amazing!”
“I still hold the same thoughts, it would be cool if the hot pot soup base was Luosifen!” said Lan Le.
He thought of combining the two during dinner. Although others thought it was heresy, he insisted nonetheless.
“Hm…” Qin Lang rubbed his chin.
In his past life, he really did come across Luosifen hotpot, but it was indeed a bit against humanity, better not to bring it out.
“Alright, alright, we should go now!” Sun Yan coughed lightly, grabbed Lan Le before receiving more mocking from the others, then waved at Qin Lang and Shen Qian. “If Boss Qin and Miss Shen ever come to Xiyun City, please allow me to play the host.”
“Okay.” Neither of them rejected his kind offer.
After the group of five left, Shen Qian crossed her arms and looked thoughtful, “Qin Lang, I feel…” fгeewebnovёl.com
“What?”
“Maybe combining Luosifen with hot pot might not be a bad idea?”
“Let’s not.”
Early the next morning, saying goodbye to the morning light, the cruise ship “Cloud Flow” slowly approached a somewhat primitive and simple pier on the riverbank of the Bei Qiu River.
The pier was simple because most of it, including the boarding area and other parts, was made of wood, which was unlike other piers.
It was primitive because beyond the pier, there were no signs of human construction at all. It was all green trees far and wide.
“So this is Lan Qiu Forest.”
Carrying their backpacks and walking away from the pier side by side, Qin Lang and Shen Qian stared at the original forest before them, breathing in the fresh smell of the moist soil, their eyes filled with anticipation.
“Although it’s not far from Yue Hu City, this is my first time here.” Shen Qian looked around with a grin, “I was too scared to come here alone when I was traveling.”
“Don’t worry, I have survival experience in the wild.” Qin Lang said confidently. fгee𝑤ebɳoveɭ.cøm
“Won’t it be too late to send the luggage to Lanqiu City?”
“Don’t worry, if nothing unexpected happens, it will arrive faster than us.”
