Kiss the softest mouth and hug the thickest legs.
Tang Bandit didn't know who had the softest mouth, but he knew that Xuanyuan Mingjing had the thickest legs in this academy.
When Xuanyuan Mingjing asked him to serve him a cup of tea, Tang Bandit didn't understand what it meant, so he knelt down with a plop.
Hesitating for even a second is disrespectful to your thighs.
Xuanyuan Mingjing was not reserved at all. He took the tea offered by Tang Bandit and drank it all in one gulp, saying, "Okay, from today on, the master-disciple status is finalized."
"Thank you, Master." Tang Bandi said with excitement on his face.
Si Yinchuan cupped his hands in front of Xuanyuan Mingjing and said with a smile: "Congratulations to the dean on your new disciple. This must be celebrated properly."
Xuanyuan Mingjing pointed to the box of grape worms on the table and said, "Didn't Xinglan catch a box of worms? Let him fry them for a while and drink them with wine."
"Oh, this is a good thing. If you can have another bowl of peach blossom wine brewed by the dean himself, it will really make you die." Si Yinchuan looked at the box of small white meat worms, like Saw the most precious delicacy in the world.
He had previously guessed that the dean's attitude was loose and he might have the idea of accepting this apprentice.
So he went along with the flow and gave Tang Bandit a favor. Now that things have developed as he thought, then his favor was worth it.
If you can become a disciple of Xuanyuan Mingjing, your future achievements will be limitless.
Tang Bandit is a bold and careful person with a thick skin. He can say things that others cannot say and do things that others dare not do. I am afraid that he will really succeed in the future.
Needless to say, Shen Xinglan has outstanding strength and has the behemoth Shen family as his backer. Even if you say that he can become the leader of the country, he will not be surprised.
"Peach Blossom Wine is enough." Xuanyuan Mingjing said proudly.
Shen Xinglan also walked over and said with a smile: "Congratulations, Master, for accepting another great disciple. Master can easily refuse to accept a disciple. This is a great and happy event, and we should celebrate it properly."
He looked at Tang Bandit again and said, "From today on, we are brothers."
Tang Bandit stood up and saluted Shen Xinglan and said, "Thank you, senior brother, for your kindness."
Tang Bandit felt that he couldn't understand Shen Xinglan. He probably liked Fenghuang, and he also knew his relationship with Fenghuang.
However, he did help him during the martial arts competition just now.
If he hadn't used his fist energy to swallow up all his sword energy, the power of the sword would have probably cut the vines in Xuanyuan Mingjing's courtyard into countless pieces.
If Xuanyuan Mingjing didn't intercept it.
However, he just did it.
It's like the two of them had discussed it in advance...
Moreover, after the big examination at the First Military Academy of the Empire, he could clearly tell some weird things in front of Xuanyuan Mingjing.
The Tang bandit had only been in Bailu Academy for less than half a day, and he had already deeply realized the prestige of Xuanyuan Mingjing in this academy.
It can be said that he can decide all matters, big or small, with a single word, and both teachers and students regard him as a god.
However, Tang Bandit enrolled in school smoothly.
Did Xuanyuan Mingjing not ask for his opinion? Or is it that Shen Xinglan is really an upright gentleman and doesn't have a bad word to say?
Tang Bandit knew that he would not be able to do this if it were left to him.
If he had a grudge against Shen Xinglan, he would try every means to intercept him, and it would be impossible for him to have the opportunity to become his master.
Brothers and sisters with the same father and mother are competing for each other's favor, how could he allow others to get involved in his teacher's favor?
He needed that damn sense of security.
"It's true that the power of Junior Brother's sword is too astonishing." Shen Xinglan said calmly, unwilling to accept Tang Bandit's favor.
"I will ask senior brother for more advice in the future."
"If you don't take advice seriously, brothers in the same discipline should ask each other for help and improve together."
"Excuse me, senior brother."
"Junior brother, you are too polite."
Shen Xinglan looked at Xuanyuan Mingjing and said, "Master, it's getting late. I'm going to make some dishes for you and the Dean of the Department to go with wine?"
"Okay." Xuanyuan Mingjing nodded and said, "I'll freeze two more bottles of peach blossom wine, and you brothers will also drink some later."
"Yes, Master." Shen Xinglan agreed, picked up the grape worms on the table and went to the kitchen to work.
"Master, shall I help?" Tang Bandit said.
He is the junior brother, and he should be doing these things originally.
Besides, his cooking skills are also good, and Shen Xinglan cannot be allowed to flatter him all by himself.
"Go." Xuanyuan Mingjing nodded and stuffed another grape into his mouth.
When he walked into the kitchen, he saw Shen Xinglan wearing an apron and pouring oil into the pot.
Family members, who knows?
If you hadn't seen it with your own eyes, who would have imagined that Shen Xinglan, a direct descendant of the Shen family, the head of the nine major families in the Phoenix Empire, and the core figure who is said to be the most likely to become the next head of the family, is now just like an ordinary housewife. Circle around the cooktop.
Tang Bandit walked over and said with a smile: "Senior brother, is there anything you need my help with?"
Shen Xinglan glanced at Tang Bandit, but was not polite to him and asked, "Have you ever cooked before?"
"I've done it before. In the old days, I was always the one cooking. I just don't know whether you are used to eating it or not."
"Then I'll try your cooking tonight." Shen Xinglan said with a smile: "I'll use this pot to fry the grape worms, and I'll leave the other dishes to you. There are vegetables and meat in the refrigerator. You can take whatever you know how to do."
"No problem." Tang Bandit said.
Tang Bandit ran to the refrigerator and rummaged around for a while. There were a lot of ingredients including fruits, fruits and meat.
It was his first time cooking for his master, so he naturally wanted to leave a deep impression on him. After thinking about Xuanyuan Mingjing's character and roughly understanding his tastes, he started to get busy.
Soon, a few fresh stir-fry dishes came out.
Tang Bandit made a dish of tiger skin pepper, a dish of bison meat with tender bamboo shoots, a dish of scrambled eggs with tomatoes, and a dish of fried snow mountain indigo.
I made another pot of pheasant and wild vegetable soup. The pheasant was plump and there was a layer of butter floating on the soup. Lift the lid of the pot, and the aroma is fragrant.
Coupled with the fried grape worms made by Shen Xinglan, the stone table was filled with dishes.
Tang Bandit opened the chilled peach blossom stuffing and poured a cup into the cups in front of everyone.
Xuanyuan Mingjing picked up the wine glass and said: "Here's to the moonlight tonight. It's a good night with the moon and wine."
Others also picked up their wine glasses and echoed: "Tonight's moonlight."
Tang Bandit originally thought that Taohua Niang with such a pink name must be fruit wine, but he didn't expect it to be a highly spirited wine.
After a glass of it, it is cold and spicy. The two feelings are hostile to each other, but there is a wonderful unity.
Tang Bandit grinned while drinking, but the others were content with it.
Si Yinchuan drank a glass of wine. Before Tang Bandi could help him pour the wine, he was already busy pouring a glass for himself, and then drank it in one gulp.
Then he closed his eyes and let out a breath, shouting: "Happy."
Xuanyuan Mingjing picked up the chopsticks and said aloud: "I heard that most of the dishes tonight are made by Tang bandits. Come and try them all."
He put a piece of tiger skin pepper into his mouth, chewed it carefully, nodded, and praised: "Not bad. The skin and meat are thick, the oil temperature is just right, spicy and sweet, and the taste is unique."
He picked up another piece of bison meat and put it into his mouth. After tasting it for a moment, his eyes immediately lit up and he said, "This one is even better. It retains the fat of the buffalo meat and achieves the ultimate in freshness and tenderness."
Xuanyuan Mingjing picked up the wine glass and said loudly: "This glass is dedicated to Tang Bandit and welcomes him to join our big family."
"I rarely see the dean praise people, so Bandit Tang needs to have a few drinks." Si Yinchuan joked with a smile.
Shen Xinglan also picked up the wine glass and said with an aggrieved look: "It seems that my position as chef can't be kept? In the future, I can only help Junior Brother Tang Bandit?"
"Brother's fried grape worms are also very delicious. This is the first time I have eaten this dish. It is crispy and delicious, and it is suitable for drinking."
When they drank the bowl of pheasant and wild vegetable soup, everyone stopped talking and could only hear the sound of heads immersed in drinking the soup.
"Tonight, this bowl of soup is the best." Xuanyuan Mingjing put down the wine glass and said, "After drinking this bowl of soup, you can't drink anymore. You can't let the potency of the wine wash away the aroma of the soup."
Si Yinchuan poured himself another cup and said, "Just for this bowl of soup, I have to drink two more cups. I haven't had such a delicious soup for a long time. It seems that we will be in good luck in the future."
Shen Xinglan looked at Tang Bandit and said, "After eating the food cooked by my junior brother, I realized that my cooking skills are only limited to "edible", and my junior brother is the real chef."
"Don't dare, don't dare. From now on, whatever Master, Senior Brother and the Dean of the Department want to eat, just order and I will work hard to learn." Tang Bandi said with a humble face.
He knew that the few side dishes and the pot of chicken soup he had carefully prepared had succeeded.
What does that old saying mean? If you want to capture a man's heart, you must first capture their stomach.
He knew that he had captured the heart of Xuanyuan Mirror Division Yinchuan Shen Xinglan
"You brothers, please stop being modest. Each of you has your own strengths and weaknesses." Si Yinchuan said with a smile. He looked at Xuanyuan Mingjing with envy and said, "The dean has accepted two good apprentices."
"If you like it, Dean Si, come over for dinner anytime." Xuanyuan Mingjing invited.
"That's natural. Even if the dean doesn't invite me, I will still come here shamelessly."
After the meal, the guests and hosts enjoyed themselves.
Tang Bandit and Shen Xinglan cleaned up the kitchen together, and then Tang Bandit said goodbye and left.
Xuanyuan Mingjing looked at Tang Bandit and said, "Have a good rest today and come to my side to report tomorrow morning."
"Yes, Master." Tang Bandi agreed.
Si Yinchuan drank a lot of wine that night, and a red light appeared on his face, but he was not drunk at all. He stood up and said, "I will send Tang Bandit back to rest. I'm afraid the other students' apartments have already been settled. If I don't send you off, I’m afraid you don’t even know where you’re going to stay tonight.”
"Excuse me, Director." Tang Bandi said gratefully.
"Why are you so polite? It's all as expected." Si Yinchuan smiled and waved his hand.
After Tang Bandit and Si Yinchuan left, Xuanyuan Mingjing drank tea from a small teapot and asked, "Do you know why I want to accept this disciple?"
"I know." Shen Xinglan said aloud.
"The Luowei people like to eat a kind of fish called sardines. The price of live fish in the market is much higher than that of dead fish, so fishermen always try their best to bring live fish back to port."
"Despite all the efforts, most of the sardines would still suffocate to death in the middle. Later, someone put a catfish whose main food was sardines into the fish tank containing sardines.
"The sardines ran away when they saw the catfish. This solved the problem of hypoxia, and most of them returned to the fishing port alive and kicking."
Xuanyuan Mingjing looked at Shen Xinglan and said aloud: "You have a great family background and a privileged background. You have everything you want and everything you want."
"In addition, he is gifted and intelligent. From the moment he was born, he had all kinds of heavenly, spiritual and earthly treasures to nourish his roots and bones, strengthen his foundation and cultivate his qi. He received guidance from a famous teacher at the age of three, and he could feel the yin and yang qi at the age of seven."
"Later on, you were invited by me to enter Bailu Academy. Everything went smoothly. The auspicious stars were shining brightly in this world. There was almost nothing that could embarrass you."
"This is very good. It allows you not to be disturbed by the world and burdened by life, and you can concentrate on practicing and breaking through the realm. You are unstoppable in the practice, and you have broken many records in a row, thanks to this."
"However, there is also a fatal problem. If you don't experience life and death, life is not enough. If you don't experience wind and rain, how can you see the rainbow?"
"To practice a discipline, the first step is difficult, and every step is difficult, and each step is more difficult than the last. The director of the department bets that you can enter the master realm before you are thirty, but I don't think it is possible."
"This has nothing to do with your talent and hard work, but it has nothing to do with your life or experience. You have no experience in life. You have never encountered life and death. You don't know the warmth and coldness of human relationships. You can't feel love. You don't have hatred in your heart. You don't have the heart to pray. How can you become a master?" territory?"
"So, master found me a catfish?" Shen Xinglan asked aloud.
"That's right." Xuanyuan Mingjing did not deny it and said, "Have you noticed that he has a lot of things that you don't have?"
"I discovered it." Shen Xinglan said loudly: "Strong desire to survive and unabashed ambition."
"Yes. You also have the courage to be the first and the wisdom to be good at calculations." Xuanyuan Mingjing looked at Shen Xinglan and said: "Everything you have is brought to you by others. The food you like to eat, you like The clothes I wear, even include me as my master."
"You are too proud. You think all this is nothing more than this. You are unwilling to fight and don't bother to fight..."
"But he is different. He knows very well that if he wants something, he has to fight for it with all his strength, fight for it, and even fight for it."
"Why does he dare to stand up and say that he wants me to be his tutor? Because he knows that if he doesn't say it, there won't be any chance."
"Why did he dare to disobey my order and would rather chop my vines into sap to win against you? It's because he knew that if he didn't let me see his strength, he would miss this hard-won opportunity again. Chance"
"Of course, I think you also understand this, so you are willing to admit defeat and use your fist strength to swallow up his sword energy."
"Yes." Shen Xinglan nodded and admitted, "When Master invited him to enter Grape Courtyard, I already understood Master's intention. Master wants to give me a catfish, and I also need this catfish. So, I am willing Fulfill him."
"When an ordinary man is angry, blood will be splashed five steps away. When an emperor is angry, millions of corpses will be laid down. You must be chivalrous and courageous, and you must have hot blood."
"People who practice martial arts have no fight with the world and lack of hostility. This is not a good thing. They have to fight for fame, profit, and strive to be the best in the world."
"I hope that after he comes, you can figure out what you really want. If you want to be born in the world, you must first join the world. If you don't join the world, how can you be born in the world?"
"It just so happens that he has a medicine on his body that can cure this arrogant disease of yours."
"What medicine?"
"Bandit."
"."
"Go ahead and make good use of this catfish." Xuanyuan Mingjing said.
"Yes, Master." Shen Xinglan knelt on the ground and said emotionally: "This disciple must do his best and live up to Master's painstaking efforts."
"I hope you can win." Xuanyuan Mingjing took a sip of tea and lay comfortably on the wicker chair, saying, "Otherwise, you will become that catfish."
"."
Shen Xinglan, who was lying on the ground, was shaken.
