If you become a monster, you will succeed

"Shan Zang, although this matter has been decided by the higher-ups, in the final analysis, you still have to choose your own path. Once you go out, you really can only rely on yourself."

At the Hunan Chengxi Passenger Terminal, the old abbot Mengyi looked at the little bald man in front of him who had changed his clothes and looked no more than sixteen or seventeen years old. He couldn't help but persuade him again.

The little bald man looked a little confused, but there was a persistence in his eyes:

"Master, I don't know much about Qitian Cuisine and Changsheng Cuisine, but if you learn it, you can make the Central Plains food industry better, right?"

"That's right." Master Mengyi nodded, and the little bald man spoke again:

"Then I'm going to do it!"

Master Mengyi, who had never seen the little bald man so solemn before, sighed, and finally said nothing more.

The little bald man saluted the old monk, turned around and walked into the station, boarded the train that had been prepared, and headed for his destination...

…

After walking out of the station, the little bald man followed the flow of people and poured out of the carriage. After walking a few steps, he heard someone say:

"Is it little master Xuanzang?"

"Ah, Xuanzang is my code name when I studied cooking in Shaolin Temple. Now that I have returned to secular life, you can call me by my secular name, Chen Shanzang."

Listening to the words of the little bald man in front of him, the man who picked up the car nodded, took out the ID in his arms and showed it to him, and then said:

"I am a staff member of the Central Plains Food Association. The president asked me to pick you up."

"Okay, the abbot told me." Chen Shanzang confirmed the ID and followed the other party into the car without too much doubt. However, the car did not take him directly to the headquarters of the Food Association, but to In a seemingly ordinary residence, here he saw a man who looked to be in his fifties.

Although he studied in the Shaolin Temple, he also used the Internet. Naturally, he knew the name of the scapegoating president, so he immediately clasped his hands habitually and said:

"Chen Shanzang has met the president."

"No need to be polite, sit down." The president looked at the little bald man in front of him with admiration, and while motioning to the secretary to pour tea, he said:

"Do you know the purpose of coming to you this time?"

"Is it because of the Qitian Kitchen Classic?" Chen Shanzang asked bluntly.

The president nodded, shook his head and said:

"Although there are factors in this aspect, the focus is not here. In fact, I have met nine young people like you today. Although I have not understood some of the essence from Qitian Kitchen Sutra like you, I still have They are all talented people, and the goal I have set is the same - to compete in the International Food Competition ten years from now."

"But I only have better steamed buns." Chen Shanzang seemed a little surprised, but the president shook his head and said:

"So it's ten years later."

As he spoke, he took a folder from his secretary, took out the various documents inside and placed them on the table. While showing them, he said:

"There are two ways now. One is to stay in China, and I will try my best to train you until ten years later, you can participate in the audition through national channels. The other way is for you to go abroad to explore, experience, and learn by yourself, and then Fight for audition spots on your own.”

When the president said this, he planned to explain the resource tilt that can be obtained by the two paths, but Chen Shanzang spoke first:

"I choose the second option."

"Why? Don't you listen to the treatment first?" The president was a little surprised by this, but the little bald man responded with clear and stupid eyes like a high school student——

"The players in previous sessions should have been specially trained, right? But they have been trained since they were young, and they haven't gotten any rankings, so I think it might be better to rely on myself."

The president was at a loss for words for the little bald head's unabashed answer, but it was originally in line with his thoughts. After a slight pause to adjust his language, he continued:

"In that case, it's settled. We have prepared a bodyguard for you, but whether you can get his recognition depends on you."

"Admit it?" Chen Shanzang was slightly curious, but the president didn't say anything clearly, he just said:

"That was a madman who became obsessed with martial arts. In order to understand the martial arts principles in the Qitian Cooking Classic, he fanatically imitated the Monkey King, trying to get closer to him. Although he did not understand the cooking skills, he He has developed extremely advanced martial arts skills, and there is even a legend that he was once given a flat peach by the Monkey King..."

"Is the legend that the Monkey King will appear from time to time true?" Chen Shanzang said with wide eyes and disbelief. The old president just said noncommittally:

"It's just a rumor in the market. No one can prove whether it is true or not. After all, no one can prove whether it is true except old age and death. Although the bodyguard assigned to you is not young, with his martial arts skills, even if he has not eaten After living like a peach, there’s nothing surprising about living another hundred and eighty years.”

"Then how do I get his recognition?" Chen Shanzang felt a little yearning in his heart and couldn't help asking, but the president just spread his hands and said:

"Just make him the most satisfying food."

…

After leaving Tiangong City, Chen Shanzang got into a special car. After speeding all the way, he felt slightly dazed——

Because what appeared in front of him was not the hotel or residential house he imagined, but a...

【Wuxingshan Psychiatric Hospital】

"Why a mental hospital?"

Chen Shanzang asked directly. When the staff heard this, they said with a little embarrassment:

"This master practiced martial arts to the point of going crazy. In order to let himself understand the Qitian Cooking Scripture, he imitated the Monkey King in every aspect. In the end, he just made himself suffer from mental illness and thought that he was the real Monkey King. Holy.

"And it's strange to say that after he did this, he actually understood a set of skills from Qitian Kitchen Sutra. At that time, all the masters in Tiangong City couldn't keep him.

"But when he appeared again later, he suddenly recovered from his illness for some reason. According to him, the real Monkey King descended to earth and gave him a flat peach, but it's hard to say whether it was true or not.

"The superiors were worried that after the news spread, everyone would imitate the Monkey King according to his methods, so the news was blocked, and with his fighting power, no one dared to seriously talk about the sentence. Finally, after discussions, all parties decided, He was sent to a mental hospital.

"He himself knows that he has been in trouble before, but he has no resistance. He usually accepts some official tasks, but they are basically short-term. This business trip may last ten years, so he proposed to test the ability of the protected person. You are not qualified to be protected by him.”

Listening to the somewhat regretful tone of the staff, Chen Shanzang couldn't help but feel emotional. But what he didn't know was that what the staff member was feeling was not that the master was imprisoned here, but because -

"Why can't he wait until he beats Zhao Yu to death with his bad disease?!"

The Jade Emperor was a great coward, and the Tie Zhao family did not run away.
