"Yishui County will be arriving soon."
Half an hour later, Xiong Qing, deputy Qianhu of Laizhou Mansion, turned to look at Gu Xu behind him and said with a smile.
After hearing his words, Gu Xu sat on the big hammer, lowered his head and looked down.
Under the meandering clouds, the broad Yi River looks like a strip of blue silk, glowing with a warm luster; and beside the river, there are houses that are extremely familiar.
Although they were far apart, he could still easily identify his small courtyard, the exorcism department's yamen and the Shi family's mansion at a glance.
"Sit tight, I'm about to land." Xiong Qing said again.
Before Gu Xu could answer, the big hammer instantly turned into a meteor and fell rapidly towards the ground.
Gu Xu suddenly felt a strong sense of weightlessness, and felt a strong wind whistling beside his ears.
If he hadn't put a talisman on himself early, he might have fallen off the hammer long ago.
However, Xiong Qing next to him showed an expression of enjoyment, and seemed to like this extreme sports-like feeling.
A few minutes later, they landed steadily on the outskirts of Yishui City.
"Brother Gu, actually I wanted to ask you to take me to your house and visit Yishui County by the way." Xiong Qing straightened his hair and smiled at Gu Xu, "Oh, it's just that I have to rush to Yishui now. Shan, I’m afraid we can only wait until we have the opportunity in the future.”
"Brother Xiong, see you later!" Gu Xu responded with a smile.
Then, Xiong Qing returned to the big hammer again, flew into the air, and soon disappeared into the northern sky.
Gu Xu walked towards Yishui County.
He walked on the uneven bluestone road and arrived at the Exorcism Department Yamen.
Although it was the New Year's holiday, Chen Jisheng was still working at the desk, concentrating on reading the documents in his hands.
While reading, he frowned from time to time, as if he saw something disturbing.
Gu Xu stood aside quietly and did not step forward to disturb him.
After a while, Chen Jisheng put down the official document in his hand, raised the tea cup on the table, and took a sip of the hot tea, hoping to relieve his tiredness with the fragrance of the tea leaves.
Just as he raised his head, he clearly saw Gu Xu's figure next to the desk.
I saw that the young man had a handsome face, beautiful features, a faint smile on his lips, and a pair of eyes as smart and shiny as stars.
At this moment, Chen Jisheng's mood was a little complicated.
"Didn't I tell you not to come back?" He looked at the young man in front of him and frowned slightly.
"I'm sorry, Mr. Chen," Gu Xu said in a sincere tone, "Actually, I didn't want to come back, but I really can't let you go, and I can't let go of Xiaohan either."
"You brat, you are really getting better and better at talking," Chen Jisheng put down the teacup in his hand and shook his head gently, "But this time, I have to congratulate you for successfully climbing to the top of Mount Laoshan and obtaining the inheritance left by the immortals - - Even the princes of Da Qi and the children of aristocratic families are no match for you, so our Yishui County can be said to be proud of you."
"Thank you, Mr. Chen. I have better luck this time." Gu Xu said humbly as usual.
"However, I must remind you," Chen Jisheng slightly raised his voice and continued, "I remember you wrote in your letter that a prince was assassinated on Mount Laoshan - the prince's succession is extremely risky, and there are many people We all paid a heavy price for it. You must stay far away and don’t get involved."
"I understand." Gu Xu nodded seriously.
In the following period, Chen Jisheng briefly asked him a few questions about the mountain climbing process, the food in Laizhou Prefecture, and getting along with his reserve comrades in the "Shenji Camp".
Gu Xu answered truthfully.
As for what the Immortal's inheritance is... Chen Jisheng chose to respect Gu Xu's privacy and did not take the initiative to mention it.
"Master Chen, is Xiaohan also in the Yamen?" After a brief question and answer, Gu Xu asked, "I heard that she recently successfully broke through to the third level."
"Shi Xiaohan successfully broke through on the morning of the first day of the first lunar month, probably at the same time as you climbed to the top of Mount Laoshan," Chen Jisheng smiled and replied, "It's just that she is on vacation today and is not in the Yamen. If you want to find her , you should go to the Shi family mansion."
Gu Xu nodded and thanked.
Then he nodded to Chen Jisheng and left the cold and empty yamen lobby.
…………
at the same time.
Shi Xiaohan was in his kitchen, flipping through the "Tiao Ding Ji", a book that recorded hundreds of recipes, and carefully studying how to make scrambled eggs with tomatoes with the help of his maid Chenxi.
Not long ago, Shi Xiaohan had eaten this simple yet delicious dish at Gu Xu's home. He was so impressed by it that he wanted his servants to make the same dish of scrambled eggs with tomatoes.
However, since it is the Chinese New Year period, the most experienced cooks in her family have already gone home to spend time with their families.
The remaining servants were unable to make tomato scrambled eggs that met her requirements because of their poor cooking skills.
Therefore, in a rage, Miss Shi decided to take matters into her own hands and set a good example to those incompetent servants.
"Anyway, I once carefully watched the whole process of Gu Xu making tomato scrambled eggs," she thought confidently in her heart. "Not only did I give him advice, but I also helped him; what ingredients to use and what to fry. I remember the heat clearly. The food I make must be 10,000 times more delicious than what these servants make."
Thinking of this, she immediately ran into the kitchen excitedly and started taking action without saying a word.
However, at this time, Miss Shi finally discovered painfully that using hands was obviously much more difficult than using words.
For example, beat eggs.
She found that she took the egg and knocked it against the bowl several times, but failed to crack the eggshell. Then in a rage, she slammed the egg on the edge of the table, and suddenly the liquid splashed everywhere - on the table, The chair, as well as her face, collar, and sleeves were all stained with egg white.
But Gu Xu just tapped it lightly, and the round egg yolk rolled down into the bowl along with the transparent egg white, and his hands were still clean.
Another example is peeling a tomato.
She held a knife and spent nearly half an hour before she managed to cut a tomato in her hand into a dog-gnawed shape. Her skirt was also stained with tomato juice.
But it only took Gu Xu less than two minutes to easily tear off the skin of the entire tomato.
How did he do that?
Why is he not only so good at cultivation, but also so good at cooking?
Shi Xiaohan thought with deep admiration while carefully cutting tomatoes.
"Miss, a guest is coming to our house." At this moment, the maid Chen Xi suddenly walked into the kitchen, bowed to her and said, "It's Mr. Gu!"
Hearing the words "Master Gu", Shi Xiaohan was stunned for a second, and then a bright smile broke out on his face, and his clear almond eyes revealed heartfelt joy: "I didn't expect that he would leave Laizhou so quickly. The house is back! He is really a timely blessing for this heroine!"
Before she finished speaking, she hurriedly wiped her hands with the rag on the table, then ran out of the kitchen like a fly and ran towards the door of the Shi family's mansion.
Sure enough, Gu Xu was waiting quietly outside the door of Shi Mansion.
His eyes are as bright as a torch, his eyebrows are slanting into his temples, he wears a Xiaoyao scarf on his head and a Qiyao suit. He has a tall and straight figure, and his graceful and graceful features are like a jade tree facing the wind.
As soon as he saw him, Shi Xiaohan rushed forward, grabbed his sleeve, and pulled him towards the kitchen: "Gu Xu, Gu Xu, you are finally back. If you don't come back, this heroine will I was tortured to death by that disgusting tomato scrambled eggs..."
"My Lady, you are now a strong person in the third realm," Gu Xu joked with a smile after hearing her words, "Even if you look at the entire Qingzhou Prefecture, you are as rare as a feather. There are even many 'evil spirit' level ones. Even ghosts and ghosts are no match for you, how can you not even be able to deal with a dish of scrambled eggs with tomatoes?"
"Gu Xu, how dare you make fun of me?" Shi Xiaohan curled his lips and glared at him dissatisfied.
"How can I have such courage?" Gu Xu spread his hands and showed an innocent expression, "Shi Nuxia is now a strong person in the realm of Naihe Bridge. I can't beat you."
"Huh, that's pretty much it." Shi Xiaohan raised his chin proudly.
She loved hearing him say things like this.
"By the way, Xiaohan, why is there something sticky on your face?" At this moment, Gu Xu looked her up and down and said seriously, "And on your collar, sleeves, The skirt is also dirty."
Shi Xiaohan immediately reached out and touched his face, and his earlobes immediately turned red.
"It's egg whites and tomato juice. I made it in the kitchen just now..." She lowered her head and said with some embarrassment.
Just now, the maid Chenxi heard that Gu Xu had come to Shifu, so she hurried to greet him and even forgot to wipe the dirt off her face!
It was so embarrassing for Gu Xu to see her sloppy look now! What a shame! It was simply left at grandma’s house!
Thinking of this, she immediately started wiping her face with her sleeves.
But her face was dirty, and her sleeves were also dirty. If she kept wiping it like this, it would naturally become dirtier the more she wiped it. The whole pretty oval face was covered with egg white and tomato juice, making her look like a tabby cat.
"Let me do it!" Seeing such a scene, Gu Xu shook his head helplessly, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart: What a little fool.
Immediately, he took out a handkerchief from his pocket and walked up to her.
"Don't move." He said softly.
"Yes." Shi Xiaohan agreed obediently.
For some reason, standing in front of Gu Xu, her breathing suddenly became rapid.
The moment the handkerchief touched her cheek, her heart throbbed, spreading throughout her body along her nerves like lightning.
She closed her eyes involuntarily.
In the darkness, the handkerchief was like a soft brush in the hand of an artist, carefully outlining the outline of her facial features.
One stroke at a time.
From the forehead, to the eyes, to the tip of the nose, to the corners of the mouth, to the chin.
Itchy and warm.
Through the handkerchief, she could faintly feel the warmth of his fingertips.
She hummed comfortably.
"Okay." After a moment, Gu Xu put away the handkerchief and said with a faint smile.
Shi Xiaohan finally opened his eyes.
Through the reflection in the pond in the yard, she could clearly see that her face had become clean again, as if she were pink and white.
Although Gu Xu looked calm on the surface, deep down he couldn't help but recall the feeling just now.
The girl's face is slightly baby fat.
Although separated by a handkerchief, it still feels soft and tender.
As his fingertips moved slightly, her thin and long eyelashes trembled slightly.
"It seems that I have to work harder to practice," he thought silently in his mind. "It is still too late to become a saint at the age of thirty."
…………
Later, Gu Xu followed Shi Xiaohan to the kitchen.
At this moment, due to Shi Xiaohan's torture, the entire kitchen was in a mess.
Tomato peels and egg shells were scattered on the floor, and the table and walls were stained with egg white and tomato juice.
The maid Chenxi was squatting on the ground with a rag and laboriously wiping the floor.
"I really didn't mean it..." Shi Xiaohan said weakly in a mosquito-like voice.
"Let me do it!" Gu Xu smiled, took out a tomato from the basket on the table, and peeled it skillfully.
Tomato scrambled eggs itself was the dish he was best at in his previous life, and it was not difficult for him.
Shi Xiaohan was sitting on the small bench next to him, holding his chin with both hands, staring intently at his white, slender hands with clear joints. He felt that his movements seemed to be flowing smoothly, and even peeling tomatoes showed beauty.
"By the way, Xiaohan, what is the magical power you gained when you broke through?" At this moment, Gu Xu asked curiously, "You were unwilling to tell me in your letter before, so you must be very powerful, right?"
Shi Xiaohan actually wanted him to guess.

Then, Xiong Qing summoned his natal creature—a huge hammer.
Gu Xuke never thought that one day he would need to "fly with a hammer"!
If "Flying with the Sword" is a fairy-like scene, then "Flying with the Hammer" can only be described as terrifying.
If this hammer accidentally falls from the sky, it will probably kill someone!
At this time, Shi Lei took out another box from the house and handed it to Gu Xu's hand: "This is the swimming crab, a specialty of our Laizhou Prefecture. Xiaohan has always loved eating it. I have to trouble you to bring this box to him." .”
"No problem!" Gu Xu readily agreed, and with a thought, he put the box into "Xianyun Residence".
At the same time, he silently complained in his heart: In this world, there are probably very few foods that Xiaohan doesn’t like to eat!
Then, he followed Xiong Qing to step on the big hammer, quickly rose into the sky, flew into the sky, and flew quickly towards Yishui County.
"Master Shi, it's time for me to go back."
Shangguan Jin looked at Shi Lei beside him, showing a hint of indifference, and there was no emotion in his eyes as quiet as lake water.
