Chapter 220 Questioning the Heart
Jiang Long was overjoyed, and he clasped his hands and bowed to the people around him, "Masters, please prepare the medicinal food as soon as possible."

The question is, who should prepare this medicinal meal?

Although the old doctor said that this medicinal food is most likely the legendary medicinal food that can cure diseases and save lives.

But can it really cure diseases and save lives?

Are the medicinal foods we make really effective?

neither knows.

Moreover, cooking medicinal food means carrying the patient's life and death on your shoulders.

Everyone suddenly felt a little frightened.

In addition to the pressure of life and death, they also lack confidence in their own strength.

Although they are all chefs of major restaurants and have the final say in their respective restaurants, they are also the top chefs in Guangzhou's culinary world.

But with so many top chefs gathered together, they already have their own opinions on who is better and who is worse.

The chefs who knew they were not strong enough looked the most relaxed. It was impossible for them to cook anyway, and if the sky fell, there would be someone taller to hold it up, so they could just hide in the back and have fun.

The mid-level chefs had mixed feelings, some reluctant, but also relieved. They were reluctant because they were not strong enough, and they were relieved because they were not strong enough, so they would not be asked to bear such a heavy responsibility.

The top chefs looked even more conflicted. On the one hand, they all had their own pride and dignity, and were unwilling to admit that they were not as good as the other. But on the other hand, if they were really asked to take on such a huge responsibility, they would feel even more uncomfortable, as if a huge rock suddenly fell from the sky and hit their shoulders, crushing them in an instant.

After all, it’s not just about making a good dish, it’s also about saving lives!
Everyone's eyes subconsciously focused on the elders of the Guangdong Chefs Association, letting the elders make the decision.

After all, he is the leader in Guangzhou's culinary industry, and he has to stand up and help everyone solve problems at critical moments.

Elder Li felt a little numb when he saw that everyone's eyes were focused on him.

He took a deep breath and turned to look at Luo Tian and Xu Qing.

The two of them were outstanding among all the chefs. The older one was experienced and knowledgeable, while the younger one was even more powerful and extremely talented.

Apart from the two of them, Elder Li had no other choice but to think of someone else as the most likely person to make this medicinal meal.

Master Luo Tian stroked his beard and measured his own strength.

He was somewhat confident, but in the face of life and death, it was safest to find the best person.

What's more, this medicinal meal was discovered by Xu Qing, and Xu Qing's understanding of this medicinal meal is deeper than anyone present.

It would be best if he could do it.

Moreover, Master Luo Tian is very familiar with Xu Qing's strength. He knows that Xu Qing has extraordinary five senses. If he exerts his full strength, he will definitely be able to create dishes that exceed everyone's imagination.

Master Luo Tian looked at Xu Qing and said, "Xu Qing, you will be the one to make this medicinal meal."

Xu Qing sighed softly and nodded.

Although he was still a little hesitant, he would be even more worried if this medicinal meal was made by someone else.

By letting him do it, at least Xu Qing can ensure that the medicinal effects of the medicinal food are fully exerted.

I just hope this medicinal meal can really save a life as the legend says.

When the chefs saw that Xu Qing was the one doing it, they were speechless.

Although Xu Qingnian is young, he is very strong.

They had all tasted the dish that represented "unique taste" and were amazed by it.

If they were to cook it, they probably wouldn't be able to make such a dish in their entire life.

Xu Qing's talent is overwhelming, and the gap is so big that people don't have the courage to fight against him.

"I disagree."

At this moment, voices of opposition suddenly emerged from the crowd.

Everyone looked in surprise and saw that the person who voiced his objection was actually Tao Ran Ju's chef, Liang Jing.

Everyone was talking quietly.

"Chef Liang? Hasn't he always admired Xu Qing's ability? Why would he object?" "Maybe he can't stand Xu Qing always being in the spotlight and wants to curb his arrogance."

"You know what, among all the chefs in Guangzhou, the one who is closest to Xu Qing in terms of strength is probably Liang Jing. Liang Jing's strength was already quite good, and after that city-wide feast, it was like he had his Ren and Du meridians opened up, and his strength made great strides forward. If he wants to compete with Xu Qing, he might actually win."

Master Luo Tian was also surprised and asked, "Chef Liang, why don't you agree?"

Liang Jing said, "Because I don't think Chef Xu can fully present this medicinal food. It would be better for me to do it."

When Liang Jing spoke, his eyes were fixed on Xu Qing, and Xu Qing could see the undisguised anger in his eyes.

Xu Qing was surprised. Did he offend Liang Jing? Why was Liang Jing so angry?
The old man said at this time: "I'm sorry, I don't trust your ability. Xu Qing made a medicinal meal once, and all of us have eaten it. We all know the taste and efficacy of medicinal meals. Moreover, this medicinal meal recipe was discovered by Xu Qing. I feel relieved to let him make it."

Liang Jing asked in a deep voice: "Mr. He, what do you think of the medicinal meal we had earlier?"

The old man exclaimed: "Very good! I have never eaten such delicious medicinal food. Moreover, he has perfectly brought out the medicinal effects of the herbs, making them taste great while having medicinal effects. It is simply wonderful!"

"Really? I think that medicinal food is not good."

Liang Jing looked at Master Luo Tian and asked, "Master, you have noticed it too, right?"

Master Luo Tian nodded slowly.

He began to understand why Liang Jing objected.

Liang Jing walked up to Xu Qing, picked up the recipe in front of him, and said, "Chef Xu, you said before that the chef was very meticulous and strived for perfection when making this dish. It can be said that he exerted his strength to the extreme in order to make this dish well. Am I right?"

Xu Qing nodded.

Liang Jing asked, "What about you? When you cook this dish, will you also use your strength to the fullest?"

This question was like a muffled thunder, exploding in Xu Qing's heart. His mind went blank in an instant and layers of cold sweat broke out on his back.

Will he?
Xu Qing didn't even need to ask himself.

The answer is no.

Because if you want to push your strength to the limit, you will have to make changes to the recipe.

Can the modified recipe save lives?

Xu Qing didn't dare to gamble.

All he has to do is present the recipe exactly as it is, and that's enough.

That's what he originally thought.

But at this moment, his hidden thoughts were bluntly revealed by Liang Jing, leaving Xu Qing with nowhere to hide.

Liang Jing continued, "If you can't use your strength to the fullest, you'll be dishonoring this recipe and the chef's hard work."

Xu Qing was speechless.

The old man looked at Xu Qing in surprise and asked, "Isn't that medicinal meal you prepared earlier your true strength?"

Liang Jing interrupted and said coldly: "I'm afraid he hasn't even shown one tenth of his strength."

"you……"

When the old man saw Xu Qing's expression, he remembered his previous conversation with Xu Qing and understood something.

In the face of life and death, being hesitant, wavering, and conservative are all normal reactions.

Few people dare to risk their lives.

but……

The old man said, "Do you remember what I told you before? As long as you do your best and have a clear conscience, that's enough. Have you done your best? Do you have a clear conscience?"

Xu Qing was stunned.

Do your best and have a clear conscience.

He didn't do any of them.
