Li Chuan felt much relieved.
He is somewhat good at cooking.
When his family's restaurant was too busy when he was a child, he and his brother often went to the kitchen to help out, setting fires, washing vegetables, cutting dishes, serving plates, keeping accounts, and collecting money, all of which they had to do.
My fingers were so red and swollen from the cold that I couldn't move them and had to wash vegetables.
I really don’t want to do it anymore.
So he likes to eat ready-made noodles and would rather make instant noodles every day than go into the kitchen.
After arriving in this world, my mentality seemed to have changed. I felt that cooking was no big deal. Maybe it was because I was too poor.
I went to the field to pick a few small green vegetables, moved the other three aside first, and washed the pots and vegetables.
After lighting up the fire, I put in a spoonful of lard and a little lard residue, and simply fried green vegetables.
Wen Guying was sitting in the living room and smelled the fragrance. He took a few breaths and said, "It smells so good."
Zhu Qingyun also had a somewhat expectant expression.
After a while, the vegetables were ready.
The three of them sat down, and a plate of green vegetables was placed in the middle of the empty dining table.
Wen Guying raised his hand and took out plates of fruits and dishes from his sleeves. Soon the table was full, and finally he took out a jug of wine.
After doing all this, he picked up his chopsticks, held the green vegetables with his chopsticks, chewed them carefully, and then said with praise: "Good, it's really good! Compared with the mouthful of green vegetables I ate in the fairy world thirty years ago, it's even better." Not much worse.
It was a banquet hosted by the real immortal after his return. There were countless spiritual beasts and treasures at the banquet. It is said that the green vegetable grew beside the Woquan and was watered with spiritual spring water every day. One bite of it can last for ten years. of cultivation. "
Zhu Qingyun showed envy in his eyes and said: "My master has also told us many things about the immortal world, but now that the Three Ancients, Four Gods and Seven Immortals have all retired, I don't know when we can see the grand scene of the past again."
As she said this, she also took a bite of green vegetables. After one bite, she took several more bites.
Cheeks bulging.
On the contrary, the rest of the dishes were not touched much.
Li Chuan really liked the fruit dishes that Wen Guying brought out, which he couldn't usually eat, as well as the wine. The small pot of wine seemed to be endless, and he poured glass after glass.
At this time, Wen Guying talked about what happened a hundred years ago again, "I saw Ancient Immortal Tiansu once from a distance a hundred years ago, but unfortunately I didn't seize the opportunity to come forward and ask for advice..."
Li Chuan listened and glanced back and forth between the two of them. Wen Guying looked at less than thirty, and Zhu Qingyun looked like a girl. But when they started chatting, it was thirty years ago or a hundred years ago. Yes, are they actually centenarians?
His attitude couldn't help but become respectful.
Wen Guying noticed Li Chuan's change and asked, "Brother Li, do you have any questions?"
Li Chuan asked the question.
After Zhu Qingyun heard this, his cheeks turned slightly red and he said, "I just listened to what my master said."
It turns out she's not an old woman.
Wen Guying introduced to Li Chuan: "Miss Zhu's master is the supervisor of Qintian Prison, Gong Zhenggong Wuguang. She is the youngest direct disciple. Although she is young, she has already accomplished several major things.
The year before last, there was a fake monk in Yidong. With a little magic, he pretended to be a heavenly king in his dreams, and stole into the back house to prostitute women. At that time, the government only thought it was an ordinary case of adultery. Fortunately, Miss Zhu was present and discovered the clues. She pursued the case all the way and finally kicked the fake monk's lair. "
Zhu Qingyun's face turned redder and redder.
Li Chuan toasted Zhu Qingyun and expressed his admiration, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, but has Taoist Wen already found the way to live forever?"
Wen Guying replied: "I can't talk about immortality. I started practicing Taoism when I was 10 years old. I joined the Sishen Palace in the 23rd year of Jianhe. In the 8th year of Yongping, I started to manage the Sishen Palace on my behalf. Everyone calls me Senior Brother. Until now. It’s been 240 years.”
Sure enough, this is the old man.
Finally, Wen Guying said: "Brother Li, you are the heir of the Pattern Sutra. In terms of seniority, you are the heir of the ancient immortal Tiansu, and your seniority is higher than ours. So we should treat each other as equals, right?"
"Okay, okay." Li Chuan agreed repeatedly.
He neither wants to be called grandpa everywhere, nor does he want to be called grandpa everywhere.
After eating a round of dishes and drinking a round of wine, the atmosphere gradually became more relaxed. Li Chuan asked a question in his mind, "Miss Zhu, why does the court tolerate a big monster like King Black Horn who occupies such a big place all year round?" How about a large piece of land that sucks people’s fat and oil?”
Perhaps because of drinking, Zhu Qingyun not only had red cheeks, but also the corners of his eyes.
She said: "Master has always wanted to eradicate these monsters. He has made suggestions to His Majesty many times, but they have been ignored."
"Why?" Li Chuan was confused.
Zhu Qingyun's eyes flashed with anger, "Your Majesty feels that once the bandits start to be suppressed, the big monsters will form an alliance, and once the war starts, it cannot be easily stopped, and it may endanger the foundation of the Jiang Dynasty!
However, wasn't today's situation the result of her concession and connivance? The Black Horned King even secretly made weapons and coined coins, making him a country within a country! "
Wen Guying interrupted Zhu Qingyun and said, "Qingyun, you shouldn't say that."
Zhu Qingyun realized the gaffe and lowered his head.
Wen Guying softened his tone and said: "This time you go to Xuanshui Mountain, it's just a good time to observe the situation inside. Make plans early so that you can be prepared when it comes to attacking these places in the future."
Zhu Qingyun nodded, "I will."
After a moment of silence, she added: "I just hope it can be used. After all... His Majesty only launched a large-scale demon suppression in the first ten years after he ascended the throne. Instead, the "Great Demon Collection" was updated every year. , from a few dozen pages to a thick volume.”
Li Chuan couldn't get a word in, so he slowly sorted out the information revealed in their conversation in his mind.
The world is not so peaceful, and maybe one day a war between humans and demons will break out.
When the time comes, he, a poor scholar, weak in body, running slowly, and the kind that monsters like to eat, will become a dish in seconds.
worry.
After lunch, Zhu Qingyun said that he still had things to do, and made an appointment with Li Chuan to set off to Xuanshui Mountain in three days before leaving.
Wen Guying stayed at Li Chuan's house for two days and taught Gong Er a lot of things. He also taught Gong Er a lot of tricks that Li Chuan wanted to learn but couldn't.
When leaving, Wen Guying said to Li Chuan: "Brother Li, Miss Zhu is a close disciple of Gong Wuguang. Being friends with her will be of great help to you in the future."
Li Chuan said: "Thank you, Taoist Master, for the tip."
Wen Guying smiled freely and said, "Let's go, see you tomorrow!"
After saying that, Li Chuan saw his feet stepping on the flying sword, his robes billowing and fluttering, and soon he could only see a little red light flying towards the sun, which was the light emitted by the ruby on the hilt, and That bit of red eventually disappeared into the sunlight.
