Xiao Cheng looked at the shocked First Elder in front of him with a smile and said.
"Great Elder Su Qian, I also have a new pastry that I developed myself, but it's not on the shelves yet. I plan to let you try it first."
After hearing his words, Su Qian asked in surprise.
"Why are you letting me taste it and not everyone else?"
Seeing that the old man was not so stupid, he had no choice but to lie.
"The main reason is that I think we get along well. Didn't we have a happy chat just now? That's why I let you try the new pastries."
There is nothing wrong with these words at first, but as long as you carefully consider the meaning, you can immediately notice that something is wrong.
Of course, although Su Qian felt a little baffled, he still asked subconsciously.
"What new pastry and what effect does it have?"
After seeing this First Elder, he finally became interested, and he started to introduce him with a smile.
"My new pastry is called Bitter Gourd Cake. Just by looking at the name of the pastry, you can tell that this pastry is very sad, but don't stop eating it because it is bitter. This pastry can remove the toxins accumulated in your body, so that you don't have to worry about developing hidden diseases over the years, and it also has the effect of improving your cultivation a little bit..."
After listening to what Xiao Cheng said, Su Qian also decided to give it a try after a short period of thinking and nodded.
"Okay, let me taste your Bitter Gourd Cake"
Seeing that the old man finally took the bait, he smiled and pretended to take out Bitter Gourd Cake from his arms, but in fact he took out Bitter Gourd Cake from his personal backpack.
The packaging of Bitter Gourd Cake is sealed with transparent plastic wrapping paper. You can clearly see the green color and some diced bitter melon.
After Su Qian took the Bitter Gourd Cake handed over by Xiao Cheng, he opened the package directly. What hit his nose was a slightly bitter smell, similar to the smell of traditional Chinese medicine.
But this First Elder didn't mean that he was not used to it. He took a bite and froze in an instant.
He could clearly see a look of uneasiness on First Elder's face, probably due to the bitter taste of Bitter Gourd Cake.
Seeing this in his eyes, he couldn't help but feel a little secretly amused.
"First Elder, First Elder, isn't this Bitter Gourd Cake delicious, hahaha"
Although I was very happy, I couldn't show it to him, so I had to pretend to be a little worried and asked.
"How does this taste? I don't know if the taste I made is good or not."
Hearing Xiao Cheng's words, Su Qian had already greeted this boy in his heart thousands of times.
However, he still pretended that nothing happened and ate the remaining Bitter Gourd Cake.
"The taste is okay, just okay, but a bit bitter."
But in fact, what he really thinks is...
"This is what people eat. It's too bitter. This kid must have done it on purpose. I must teach him a lesson."
Of course, Xiao Cheng didn't know that First Elder had already remembered him, and was just waiting to trick him at some point in the future.
"Oh, that's it. It seems like I have to go back and improve the taste of this Bitter Gourd Cake."
Seeing that this kid was actually rubbing his chin and thinking about improving the taste, he couldn't help but want to go up and slap the kid a few times.
Fortunately, Su Qian held back.
At this time, Xiao Cheng also received a notification that the system task was completed.
Congratulations to the host for completing Side Quest and getting Five-worm Cake (I made this up)
Hearing the pastry recipe given by the system, he was stunned for a moment, Shenma pastry? Five-worm Cake, is it a cake made from five kinds of insects?
Yes, it's what the host thinks. It's made from five types of edible bugs ground into scraps and other materials. "Here, it's true, what kind of bugs are there?"
What he was curious about now was which bugs they were.
The system's answer almost scared him to death.
Bamboo worms, sand worms, locusts, cicadas, and bee pupae. Listening to the names of the insects reported by the system, he felt bad. What the hell is this cake? Are you sure this isn't a dark pastry?
However, the system's answer also left him speechless.
Dark pastry is also a type of pastry, and it also has certain magical effects. He secretly rolled his eyes at the system, I believed you, you big-headed ghost, you Second Fool are very bad.
His conversation with the system only lasted a few seconds.
At this time, Su Qian had returned to his previous appearance and said to Xiao Cheng.
"These pastries of yours are very good, are you interested in cooperating with us Inner Academy, haha"
He stroked his beard and pressed the Xiao Cheng opposite him with a smile on his face, as if he was confident.
Xiao Cheng thought about it and finally felt that it was not impossible to cooperate with the Inner Academy, so he said.
"Okay, when Freshman Selection Tournament is over, I will follow the new students there."
Seeing that the boy agreed, Su Qian also nodded with satisfaction, then rubbed his hands and said a little sheepishly.
"I don't know if I can..."
Seeing the old man staring directly at the cakes on the chair, he was secretly amused, but he said it on the surface.
"By the way, these pastries can be considered as my meeting gift."
"Xiao Cheng, thank you so much, little friend"
Seeing that this First Elder was so thick-skinned and so confident, I accepted it like no one else.
However, he doesn't care about this, just a little pastry.
In addition, he also gave Su Qian five cups each of Sour Plum Drink and Ruyi Juice, asking him to take them back for others to taste.
After the Inner Academy First Elder left, Xiao Yu found an opportunity to come over and asked curiously.
"Who was that old man just now?"
He glanced at Xiao Yu, who looked curious, and said angrily.
"Why do you care so much?"
It curled its lips and said.
"I'm just curious, why are you scolding me like this?"
Seeing Xiao Yu like this, he spread his hands helplessly and said.
"Okay, let me tell you, don't be scared."
Seeing that Xiao Cheng wanted to tell her, she nodded.
"Don't worry, I won't be scared."
"That old man just now was First Elder Su Qian of the Inner Academy. That was Two-Star Dou Zong. Now you know, right?"
He saw Xiao Yu looking shocked, with his mouth wide open and his face full of disbelief.
"Then... that's First Elder from the Inner Academy. Why did he come to you?"
After seeing this girl, he flicked Xiao Yu's head and said.
"There are so many questions, go to work quickly. Do you think Xue Ni is too busy?"
She turned her head and took a look, only to realize that a lot of people had come to buy pastries just now, and Xue Ni seemed to be in a hurry.
Seeing this, Xiao Yu snorted at him and went to help.
But at this time Xiao Yu was shocked.
He knows that Jia Nan Academy is divided into the Outer Academy and Inner Academy. If you want to enter Inner Academy, you must enter the top ten in the selection competition before you have the opportunity to enter Inner Academy to practice.
Moreover, the resources in the Inner Academy are the richest, and there are many people with outstanding talents. It is a place with fierce competition.
She was also guessing that she, the store manager, had something worth Inner Academy First Elder that First Elder would come to see in person. It was estimated that these were the only magical pastries.
Of course, Xiao Cheng doesn't know Xiao Yu's inner thoughts at this time. He is currently digesting the formula of Five-worm Cake that the system just gave him.
He didn't know it by looking at it, but after reading the production method of Five-worm Cake, he realized that it was made using medicated food.
However, I don't know if this Five-worm Cake is delicious or not. It's time to make it and try it.
So he began to purchase raw materials from the system and planned to try it out later.
