In the lobby, Xue Qingshan stood holding incense.
After relaying the story told by Qin Shaoyou to the statue of Jiutiandang Demon Patriarch, he raised the incense above his forehead and bowed respectfully three times.
"I dare to ask my ancestor, is everything as Qin Shaoyou said? Please give me some instructions."
After saying this, Xue Qingshan inserted the incense into the incense burner, immediately stepped back a few steps, looked up at the statue of Jiutiandang Demon Patriarch, and waited for a reply.
The statue of Jiutiandang Demon Patriarch did not reply immediately, nor did he look at him, but looked down at Qin Shaoyou.
It was not surprised that Qin Shaoyou really used it as a shield, but it was surprised that Qin Shaoyou made up this story.
Did I praise you for your talent? And he went out of his way to give you dreams and teach you recipes in the middle of the night? Ah, where is your face? Do you still want to show off your face?
That is to say, there is no book "Journey to the West" in this world. Otherwise, Jiutiandangmo Patriarch Statue and Xue Qingshan would have known that it was Patriarch Bodhi who enlightened Sun Wukong when he heard it and Xue Qingshan tapped the back of his head three times.
Xue Qingshan waited for a long time, but did not wait for the reply from the statue of Jiutiandang Demon Patriarch. He couldn't help but feel a little doubtful and worried, and looked back at Qin Shaoyou.
"Don't worry, just wait." Qin Shaoyao said.
So Xue Qingshan continued to look up at the statue of Jiutiandang Demon Patriarch.
Qin Shaoyou took this opportunity to wink at the statue of Jiutiandang Demon Patriarch, instructing it to act according to the agreement and not to cause trouble, and secretly nuzzled at the beard on the altar table.
For the sake of Yaogui Lingyao, Jiutiandangmo Patriarch didn't seem to care about Qin Shaoyou's shamelessness.
It didn't see any movement, and the green smoke rising from the incense burner surged in front of it, turning into the word 'yes'.
In front of the demon spirit food, the Jiutian Demon Patriarch finally compromised and chose to take the blame.
Soon the green smoke dissipated, and the statue of Jiutiandang Demon Patriarch also moved his eyes aside, no longer looking at Qin Shaoyou.
I don’t know if it’s because he felt guilty after lying, but the Patriarch of Jiutiandang Demon didn’t seem to be embarrassed to accept the incense this time.
Qin Shaoyou was amazed when he saw it: So the statue of Jiutiandang Demon Patriarch can still communicate with people like this? Then why has it never used this trick on me and always left me to figure out its thoughts?
Xue Qingshan breathed a long sigh of relief, turned around and said, "It seems that the founder of Jiutiandang Demon Realm really taught you the recipe. It's strange. Although it has selected people to teach some skills and moves before, it doesn't teach cooking. This is the first time this kind of thing has happened.”
Qin Shaoyou smiled. He had heard that the statue of Jiutiandang Demon Patriarch would select people to teach the techniques, so he wanted to find it to take the blame.
After all, it has even taught the skills, and teaching a few recipes is not something unacceptable, right?
At the same time, Qin Shaoyao said: "Now do you believe what I said is true?"
"Believed."
Xue Qingshan then explained: "I didn't suspect you of lying before, but I was afraid that you would be deceived by evil spirits. You have also seen that whether it is the ghost in Shen Bin's painting or Ruan Xiangxiang's bone pipa, they are all very good at deceiving people. .Although they are tempting with sex, we cannot rule out that demons and ghosts will deceive people with other things. After all, demons, ghosts and evil spirits are good at exploring and exploiting people's desires."
Qin Shaoyou knew that Xue Qingshan was reminding him, so he nodded and said seriously: "Don't worry, brother-in-law, I will definitely be more careful and cautious in the future."
"I can rest assured that."
Xue Qingshan smiled and patted his shoulder, gave him a few more instructions, and asked Qin Shaoyou to follow him back to the hall to tell him the information obtained during the torture.
"Ruan Xiangxiang has confessed some things. As one of the managers of the case, you need to know."
Qin Shaoyou naturally nodded in agreement.
He also wanted to know the true origin of Ruan Xiangxiang, especially where she learned the sorcery and how her bone pipa became a spirit.
When leaving, Xue Qingshan caught a glimpse of the Jing Xusu on the altar table. He couldn't help but stop, pointed and asked Qin Shaoyou: "Did you offer this?"
"Yes." Qin Shaoyou nodded: "I thought, the ancestor taught me the recipe, it must have wanted to eat it, so after making it, I gave it a portion."
Xue Qingshan nodded and asked: "When did you offer it?"
"It taught me the recipe last night, so I tried to make a few portions of Jingxu Cake, and even served it. What do you want to do with this?"
"I'll count the time... In other words, this Jingxu Cake has been offered for more than six hours? Then you can eat it."
Xue Qingshan said as he picked up the Jingxu Cake from the altar table, broke it open, stuffed half of it into his mouth, and handed the other half to Qin Shaoyou.
After he ate Jingxusu once and tasted the delicious taste and effect, he fell in love with this demon ghost delicacy, and knowing that the quantity was limited, he made the idea of offering it to his ancestor.
"Don't eat..."
Qin Shaoyou wanted to stop him, but unfortunately he was a step too late. Xue Qingshan had already put Jingxusu into his mouth.
"Why……"
Xue Qingshan wanted to ask, "Why aren't you allowed to eat?" But in the middle of his words, his expression suddenly changed, and he spit out all the Jingxu crisps he had eaten in his mouth.
The experienced Qin Shaoyou immediately poured him a glass of water so that he could rinse his mouth.
Xue Qingshan took a big gulp of water, gargled it in his mouth, spit it out, and gasped: "Is the Jingxu cake you offered to the Patriarch? Why does it taste like this? It tastes terrible! "
Qin Shaoyou held back his laughter and said: "Of course what I offer is Jingxu Cake. As for why the taste is like this, it is very simple. It means that the ancestor has already enjoyed it, so this Jingxu Cake has changed from a spiritual delicacy to a spiritual delicacy." If it’s dregs, the taste will naturally deteriorate.”
Xue Qingshan frowned and said: "We have always made offerings to our ancestors before, but it has never become like this."
Qin Shaoyou spread his hands and said, "The offerings you brought before were not what our ancestors liked to eat."
Xue Qingshan turned his head and glanced at the offerings placed on the offering table.
In addition to the seasonal fruits and vegetables, there were also some demonic beasts’ flesh, blood and organs, most of which were still raw. There were only a few pieces of demonic beast meat that had been barely cooked in water, without adding salt or seasonings. It was not known whether they were cooked or not.
No one would have an appetite after seeing such an offering. However, the statue of the founder of Jiutiandang Demon had never raised any objection before, so they did not make improvements to save trouble and make it easier to take it to the kitchen for follow-up after the offering. Cuisine.
Now it seems that the statue of Jiutiandang Demon Patriarch will teach Qin Shaoyou recipes in dreams, maybe he is annoyed by these 'original and authentic' offerings...
Thinking of this, Xue Qingshan persuaded Young Master Qin: "You will work harder in the future and be responsible for feeding... ahem, responsible for bringing offerings to the ancestor. The ingredients, condiments, etc. used are withdrawn from the warehouse of the Demon Suppression Department. . If it is not in the warehouse, we will reimburse you according to the going price."
Can I withdraw ingredients and condiments from the Demon Suppression Division’s warehouse?
Qin Shaoyou's eyes suddenly lit up.
Now, you don’t have to worry about the lack of ingredients when making many ghost and ghost delicacies.
Then he squinted at Xue Qingshan. Although he didn't say anything, his eyes already stated his thoughts: Did you just say feeding? What do you take the statue of the Patriarch of Jiutiandang Demon for?
Xue Qingshan turned around with a guilty conscience, glanced at the statue of Jiutiandang Demon Patriarch behind him, and dodges his eyes: I don't, don't slander anyone!
The two of them looked at each other all the way out of the lobby and returned to Xue Qingshan's office hall.
After signaling Qin Shaoyou to sit down, Xue Qingshan recounted the information he had tortured from Ruan Xiangxiang.
