The next day, by the source pond.
Guangshu got up early to prepare for today's big meal. Arrange the tables and chairs, set up the boiler, and call out some Samadhi True Fire in advance for backup.
Sitting expectantly at the door of the wooden house, waiting for Li Zijin's arrival. But after waiting for nearly two hours, there was still no sign of anyone coming. Only then did Guangshu remember that he had been introducing the ingredients yesterday, but had forgotten to agree on a specific time with the saint.
It was almost noon, and he clearly felt his stomach growling again. In fact, it was just him being greedy. I have no choice but to catch a few more fish to cushion the fish first.
Without much effort, I fished out a few more fish from the Sanchong Pond, but the most colorful ones were only Bacai. What does the nine-color divine fish taste like? I haven't seen her yet. I'll ask her after Li Zijin comes.
No longer thinking about it, only good things can be eaten. He started the fire and settled the things in front of him first.
…
…
After waiting for a long time, Guangshu calculated again with his fingers that it was almost Xu time and it should be dusk outside.
"I won't be let down, right?" He couldn't help but murmured in despair: "It seems that I really don't know how to get along with women. All my friends who I just met a short time ago are letting me down..."
But when he looked forward again, he suddenly found a figure of a beautiful woman flying towards him. He didn't have to think twice to know that it was Li Zijin.
This made Guangshu overjoyed. The long-awaited meal was finally here! He quickly stood up from his stool to welcome the arrival of the saint.
"Fairy Li, looking forward to the stars and the moon, I have been waiting for you!
Come on come on. After all the hard work of running back and forth, I quickly sat down and took a rest. "
He gave up the seat behind him and welcomed the saint to the seat. Unlike Guang Shu, who looked excited, Li Zijin's expression was obviously a little depressed.
It's a pity that Guang Shu, who is now thinking about the big meal, doesn't even have this kind of vision. He is even urging her to take out all the ingredients he brought, and he keeps bragging about how good his craftsmanship is. It will definitely be something she will never forget!
However, before Li Zijin took out the ingredients, he still didn't forget the lie he told his master yesterday. He had to talk to him about this matter first to avoid it being exposed later.
But it was obvious that Guangshu didn't take this matter to heart. He responded repeatedly and urged her to take out the ingredients as soon as possible. There was nothing he could do, so he opened the Qiankun bag and took out a lot of ingredients that he couldn't even name.
In an instant, precious light appeared, almost filling the entire island. Guang Shu's eyes shone, he suppressed the laughter that was about to flow from the corner of his mouth, and went to cook with them.
Because there were so many ingredients, it took him a lot of time to cook all the ingredients even though he had prepared them thoroughly in advance.
Half an hour later, they sat down at the wooden table built by Guang Shu. They sat opposite each other but could not see each other.
The reason is that the food piled high is not that Guangshu's wooden table is too small, but that there is indeed too much food.
Although the arrangement is a bit awkward, the food looks pretty good and smells amazing. It seems that Guang Shu did not lie. He is still good at cooking, but he doesn't know how it tastes.
"Fairy Li, don't be polite to me, just eat with an open stomach." As he said this, he kept stuffing things into his mouth.
"Okay." Although the food looked good, Li Zijin was not very interested. She was still thinking about what her master said last night.
But Guang Shu on the other side didn't notice, still wolfing down his food. In fact, he couldn't see Li Zijin's expression at this moment, and it was difficult to notice.
In fact, what seemed like a mountain of delicacies would soon disappear once it entered Guang Shu's mouth.
After a while, the small mountain of food gradually became shorter. Guang Shu also noticed Li Zijin opposite, and saw that there was not even an empty plate in front of her, and it seemed that she only took one bite of the plate of food in front of her.
Even if she is a lady, she will not eat so slowly.
Looking at her disappointed expression, Guang Shu was frightened now. He quickly put down the two big chicken legs in his hands and asked:
"Fairy Li, what happened? But the food doesn't suit your taste?"
In fact, he also knew that it was probably not the taste of the food. He was still somewhat confident in his craftsmanship. After all, the grilled fish he gave her yesterday was not eaten with gusto. What happened today?
He was a little confused, but the relationship between them was not very familiar, so he could only use this to ask.
After Li Zijin heard this, he just shook his head slightly and said:
"No, the food you made is delicious. It's just that I have no appetite, I'm sorry."
Seeing that she had no desire to continue talking, Guang Shu wisely shut up. But before he finished enjoying the food, he opened his mouth again.
People often say that watching others eat well makes you more appetizing, and the opposite seems to apply. Seeing that she still had the same depressed expression, Guang Shu finally asked:
"I wonder what Fairy Li is worried about? Keeping worries in your heart will only make you more irritable. If you don't mind, you can tell me, maybe I can help!
We have had several meals together and can be considered friends now. "
Friends? Li Zijin was a little surprised, accompanied by a little joy. Ever since she was a child, her peers around her have been respectful to her. Because of her status as a Yaochi saint, the only person she can be close to is her master.
This is the first time that I have made friends of my own age! He hid his slightly happy expression very well. She opened her lips lightly and recounted the conversation with her master last night in detail.
"To put it simply, are you worried that your master will leave you alone?"
She nodded slightly and responded, "Yeah! Is there anything you can do to tell me?"
It's so easy! Guangshu took a step forward, stretched out his right index finger to point to the sky, put on a pose that he thought was handsome, and said to her:
"Become stronger! Become invincible. Not only do you not have to worry about your master abandoning you, you can even protect your master in return!"
The saint on the side actually seemed to have an epiphany after hearing these words. Her eyes suddenly burst into light, she clenched her hands into fists and said in a firm tone:
"Yes! I want to become stronger!"
But Guang Shu hadn't finished speaking yet. When Li Zijin finished shouting the slogan, he continued: "You don't have to worry about being alone in the future. I'm still here, right? We are friends."
Li Zijin, who was full of passion just now, suddenly blushed with embarrassment, lowered his head, and whispered: "Bah! You're a disciple!"
"What's wrong?" Seeing that her expression suddenly became strange again, Guang Shu stopped and asked.
"Nothing!" She was a little flustered, feeling like a deer was bumping against her chest. She shook her head to get rid of this state, and ended the conversation in a hurry.
