"Yushan crispy duck and this sauce-roasted lingcos roe. Your mother-in-law said you like them the most. Eat more."
In a side hall of Qinzheng Hall, a small round table is placed in the middle of the side hall. The table is very new. There were four meat dishes, four vegetable dishes and one soup on the table. And every dish is exquisite and the aroma is tempting. It can be said that it is full of color and fragrance.
Sitting in front of the round table were a father and his son. Yang Sheng and Yang Rui.
To be honest, Yang Sheng didn't have a good impression of his thirteenth son. Of course, that was before the thirteenth son entered Zhang Yan's sect. My impression is that he is a child who is somewhat smart but has a dull temper. In addition, he is too young and does not have any strong influence from his maternal uncle's family, so it would be good to be Prince Anle in the future. It would be even better if you could make some achievements in learning.
Yang Sheng couldn't even remember the last time he sat with Xiao Shisan, or had it never happened before?
Yang Rui had indeed not eaten such exquisite food for a long time, but when facing Yang Sheng, he instinctively followed the etiquette he had been taught since he was a child, and ate slowly and in small bites.
"Haha, don't be restrained and eat more. You should eat hard now when you are growing. And now that we are just you and me, don't worry about those annoying etiquette. Come on, this is a lot of meat. Here it is for you. !" Yang Sheng laughed and picked up a large piece of duck meat and put it into Yang Rui's bowl. At this time, he could not see the seriousness he used to have in front of his son. On the contrary, there is a kind of kindness that makes Yang Rui feel strange and friendly.
Yang Rui nodded, picked up the bowl and started eating in big mouthfuls. All along the way, he had to eat dry food. A portion of fried rice with eggs would be good, but now that he had something delicious, he was really hungry.
"Is the food supply poor in Langyuan City? You seem to have grown taller but not much meat?" Yang Sheng continued to scoop up a bowl of sauce-roasted lingcos roe and put it next to Yang Rui, while asking Yang about it in a casual manner. Rui's life in Langyuan City.
"If I go back to my father's house, I won't. The food at Mr. Zhang's house is very good. There is meat in every meal. And I can eat some spicy food now. I think it's delicious. Brother Shitou always leaves the good ones to me. And little steamed buns. The teacher said that it’s good for me to grow taller without gaining weight at my age. I don’t have to worry about obesity in the future.”
"Stone? Steamed bun? Hahaha, you mean Mr. Zhang's other two disciples, right? It sounds like you get along well? Didn't I hear that you were beaten by that little stone at first? What? You made up? ?"
"Well! We've made peace a long time ago..."
Yang Rui was very talkative about his experiences after studying abroad, because it was a happy experience that he had never had in the palace. When his father asked him about it, he would naturally start chatting.
"What?! Mr. Zhang asked you two children to face the Six-Headed Spirit Tribe alone!"
Yang Sheng was also shocked when he heard Yang Rui talk about his previous experience in Gujiacun. I also sighed in my heart that Zhang Yan was indeed unexpectedly brave. Even though he was watching from the side, he actually waited until such a crisis that Yang Rui was willing to sacrifice his life for justice before he took action to save him. He really didn't know how to comment on this.
"Well! Although Brother Shitou and I were in danger last time and almost died, the teacher said that only hard work pays off. If we do it again, Brother Shitou and I will not need a stick of incense to clean up the six ghosts. We will never do it again. Falling into that kind of dilemma.”
"Ghost? Is this Mr. Zhang's name for the spirit tribe?"
"Yes. That's what the Taoist books say. It's more detailed than the "Spiritual Matters Miscellaneous Volume"."
"What is a Taoist book? So, Mr. Zhang already knew about the existence of the Spiritual Clan?"
"Yes, Father. One of the obligations of us cultivators is to eliminate the ghosts in the world and bring peace to the world."
"A cultivator?" Yang Sheng thought to himself that there were indeed many things that Yang Rui came back to talk about this time that could not be mentioned in previous letters. It also made him understand a lot more about Zhang Yan.
Then Yang Sheng asked while eating: "What are the strengths of the three of you? Can you show me the methods you mentioned in your letter before?"
Yang Rui hummed, put down Kuaizi, and when he raised his hand, he saw a fist-sized water polo appearing out of thin air at his fingertips.
"God's Coming"
"Father, this is the method of the five elements of water. The teacher said that I have the highest affinity with the five elements of water, and I will focus on water cultivation in the future. The rest, such as wood and earth, can also be used as minor training. I will show you the earth method again... ....”
Yang Sheng is the emperor, so it goes without saying that he is well-informed. But when have you ever seen such a magical method that seems to be "making something out of nothing"? And how long have you been studying for? !
"However, these methods of mine are still not as good as Brother Shitou's fire method. The teacher said that Brother Shitou is paranoid and has a fire attribute. As long as it is a fire method, the power of Brother Shitou will be 20% higher. Paranoid affinity is cultivated in the early stage. It will rise very quickly. It is estimated that in the next year or so, Brother Shitou will be able to reach the Mysterious Vein Realm and officially start. Just like a little steamed bun." Yang Rui said with a look of expectation.
"Huh? Little Thirteen, what do you mean by this? Aren't you already Mr. Zhang's disciple? Why do you need to get started again?"
Yang Rui nodded heavily and replied: "If you can't reach the Xuanmai realm, you can't be considered a true monk. You can only be the teacher's registered disciple, and you won't be qualified to learn many powerful methods later. And also I can’t learn. I’m still a little short of the middle stage of the Qi Entrainment Realm. But I’m confident that I can step into the Xuan Vein Realm, but I probably won’t be able to catch up with Brother Shitou.”
"Is that little steamed bun better than you?"
Yang Sheng knew that the little stone was a relative of Zhang Yan. He was the earliest to learn, and there was nothing to say about the fact that he was the strongest among the three. It is reasonable for Yang Rui to fail. But isn't that little steamed bun the little palace maid that Zhang Yan took away from the state banquet before? Why did he get started before Yang Rui?
"Little Mantou is not as good as me. She has just entered the Qi Entraining Realm. But the teacher said that Little Mantou's talent is rare in the world. As long as she sets foot on the path of cultivation, she will be much faster than Brother Shitou and me. Therefore, although Little Mantou’s strength has not yet reached the Mysterious Vein Realm, he has already been included in the teacher’s core disciple category in advance.”
"Talent... It seems that the most important thing in Mr. Zhang's methods is talent."
"Father is right."
"Then you sound like you have already started. Can you tell whether others have the same talent as you in cultivating Taoism? Or do you have to rely on Mr. Zhang's talent?"
"Father, it is difficult to measure the talent of a monk. The teacher cannot accurately detect everyone's talent. The most reliable way is to use the talent ruler."
Eat it in one meal. Yang Sheng took Yang Rui for a walk in the small garden behind. He may not have been so leisurely in a long time.
"Little Thirteen, Mr. Zhang's methods are miraculous, including alchemy, weapon refining, and those methods targeting the Spiritual Race. If you can find one or two, it will be a great benefit to Nanyuan Kingdom and the royal family. Even Mr. Zhang The "Method of Refining Skin and Flesh with Medicine" that I didn't care much about was a great thing to be able to come up with.
Little Thirteen, do you understand what your father says? "
