"Look after the grill? With so many classmates here, who would steal the grill?"
Li Hongxia was stunned for a moment, then muttered to herself. When she raised her eyes again to look at Wang Shuai, she found that Wang Shuai had already run off like a streak of smoke.
"How annoying, giving me the easiest task."
Li Hongxia watched Wang Shuai's retreating figure, then shyly said that, and ran to stand by the grill, staring at the barbecue grill.
Sizzle sizzle~!
On the grill, impatient classmates had already placed skewers of meat and vegetables on the metal rack to barbecue. The aroma of meat and vegetables immediately spread.
Qin Yang flicked his fingers, and a Spiritual Flame shot into the grill, making the charcoal blaze intensely.
"Which do you like to eat?"
Qin Yang pointed to the food beside the grill and asked Lu Bingyao.
"You know how to barbecue?"
Lu Bingyao's beautiful eyes showed a hint of surprise. She had tasted Qin Yang's snake soup medicinal dish before, and the taste was unforgettable.
"Haha, I've done a lot of barbecuing in the wild before…"
Qin Yang laughed, then shook his head and stopped talking. That was all back on the Immortal Yuan Continent.
"Hmm? What did you do in the wild before?"
Lu Bingyao asked with curiosity.
"Cultivation, haha."
Qin Yang said with a smile. On the Immortal Yuan Continent, he often trained outside and frequently used Demon Beasts to satisfy his hunger. However, most Demon Beasts' meat was somewhat rough, and to eat well required exquisite barbecue skills.
Just at this moment, Guo Xiaobin returned with a large wild fish.
"Brother Yang, I'm back. There are lots of Qingjiang fish in the river, haha..."
Guo Xiaobin laughed happily, the Qingjiang fish in his hand still bouncing.
"Qingjiang fish?"
Qin Yang took the large wild fish from Guo Xiaobin, his eyes brightening. This type of fish surprisingly contained a slight trace of Spiritual Energy, so its meat must be very tender.
Bang!
Qin Yang tossed the Qingjiang fish into a large bucket of water.
"Xiaobin, go start the fire on the grill first. I'll catch a few more."
Qin Yang said. One Qingjiang fish was definitely not enough for him, so he naturally needed to catch more.
At that moment, Qin Yang picked up the bucket and soon caught more than a dozen large fish, filling a bucket to its brim. He also helped other classmates with some fishing.
When Wang Shuai returned with skewers of meat and vegetables, Fan Juejin had already used newspaper to light the charcoal, and Li Hongxia willingly helped Wang Shuai place the meat and vegetables next to the grill.
"Brother Wang, I caught two large fish."
Zheng Wei said with a smile.
"Not bad. Wei, just wait to admire my cooking skills later."
Wang Shuai grinned, his eyes scanning the surroundings, noticing that many people had already started barbecuing. However, most only knew to brush some oil on the meat and sprinkle some salt, cumin, etc., which was far from what he and a real chef would do.
"Brother Wang, should we start grilling now?" Fan Juejin asked.
"Let's wait a bit."
Wang Shuai shook his head with a grin and said like he was knowledgeable, "To grill delicious barbecue, the first requirement is for the charcoal to be heated to a transparent red. See them? They started grilling as soon as the charcoal was lit, which easily causes the skewers to become black and dirty."
"Brother Wang, you're right."
Zheng Wei nodded, glancing at the grills of a few nearby boys, realizing that the smoke from the burning charcoal had already blackened the meat on their grill.
"Moreover, the charcoal should not have visible flames, or it will easily char the meat and break the skewer."
Wang Shuai said proudly. The nearby boys' meat on their grills already had a slight burnt smell.
"Wang Shuai, you sure know a lot."
Li Hongxia's eyes fixed on Wang Shuai, with little stars sparkling in them.
Wang Shuai glanced at Li Hongxia, who was chubby with a freckled face, somewhat speechless. What good is your admiration? Ah, if only Su Qingqing could hear his advanced insights.
But no worries, once his skewers are finished, they will definitely be the best among everyone, and Su Qingqing is sure to taste them.
"Brother Wang, the charcoal is red hot. Can we start barbecuing?" Zheng Wei asked.
"Yes, we can."
Wang Shuai nodded, then took a brush and coated the metal rack with a layer of oil.
"Brother Wang, why are you brushing the rack with oil first?"
Zheng Wei asked in confusion.
"Haha, you don't understand? It's to prevent the skewers from sticking to the rack. Look at them. Isn't the meat sticking to the rack? They have to tug it off forcefully."
Wang Shuai said with a proud smile.
"Wang Shuai, I didn't know you were so skilled at barbecuing."
Li Hongxia said with a flushed face, glancing at Wang Shuai in admiration.
Hearing this, Zheng Wei and Fan Juejin exchanged a glance, both with a touch of amusement in their eyes. To think Li Hongxia seemed to be showing interest in Brother Wang.
"Alright, watch closely, I'm going to make three different flavored skewers next."
Wang Shuai said, smiling.
"Three kinds?"
Zheng Wei, Fan Juejin, and Li Hongxia were all stunned.
"Yes, savory, sweet and sour, and spicy."
Wang Shuai's face showed confidence and pride, nodding. He practiced for several days to master these three barbecue flavors.
At that moment, Wang Shuai took several skewers of lamb, chicken wings, squid, pork belly, and more, along with plenty of vegetable skewers, and placed them on the grill.
Cooking oil, cumin powder, salt, ketchup, and other seasonings were applied neatly by Wang Shuai, resembling a real barbecue chef.
"Smells so good!"
Zheng Wei's eyes lit up as he swallowed hard, saying.
"Haha, the best is yet to come."
Wang Shuai grinned and then took out three boxes of sauces.
"Brother Wang, what's this...?"
Zheng Wei asked in bewilderment.
"Specially made barbecue sauce."
Wang Shuai said with a smile, and seeing that the timing was right, he brushed the sauces on. Soon, a rich fragrance wafted across the open area by the river.
"It smells so good..."
"Is this Wang Shuai's barbecue? It smells amazing…"
"..."
Suddenly, Wang Shuai's grill attracted the attention of many classmates.
The meat and vegetables on Wang Shuai's grill surpassed theirs in color and aroma.
Seeing so many classmates gather around, Wang Shuai's mouth curled with pride, thinking about giving Su Qingqing a skewer later, which would surely leave her wanting more.
"I didn't expect Wang Shuai to know how to barbecue."
Sun Tiantian sniffed with her cute nose, glancing at Wang Shuai's direction.
"Hmm."
Su Qingqing nodded. There was a hint of surprise in her bright eyes; at that moment, the food on her and the other three girls' grill was already getting burnt.
"Brother Wang, Su Qingqing just glanced over here."
Seeing Su Qingqing's gaze, Zheng Wei quietly reported to Wang Shuai.
