Chapter 278: Chef Yan Siyi (4000 words, please subscribe)
Early morning the next day.
Ling Pengyun found a maid from Lingfu Mansion and asked her to lead the way out of Lingfu Mansion.
We often go around the Bailing Gate and finally arrive outside a splendid palace. Behind the palace is a large cloud that can obscure other people's sight.
Even Ling Pengyun, who had reached the middle stage of Foundation Establishment, could not rely on his spiritual sense to detect the situation within the large cloud and mist.
And above the gate of the glorious hall, there is a plaque hanging, with the three characters "Lingzhi Hall" written on it.
"Senior Ling, this is Lingzhi Hall."
"As for the large cloud and mist behind Lingzhi Hall, it is a third-order low-grade illusion array, specially used to protect me. If we don’t use the special token of our sect’s Spirit Planting Hall in Bailingmen’s Spiritual Planting Garden, even a monk with perfect Foundation Establishment would have difficulty destroying it with his own strength. In addition to the cloud and mist, we entered the Spiritual Planting Garden. "
"And in the Spiritual Planting Garden, there are dozens of our sect's golden elixirs that rely on formations to specifically pull them to the Spiritual Planting Garden. Spiritual Veins."
"It is precisely because of those dozens of spiritual veins that there are thousands of spiritual fields in the Spiritual Planting Garden."
"The spiritual plants planted in the Spiritual Planting Garden are also taken care of full-time by the spiritual planters in the Spiritual Planting Hall."
The maid who led Ling Pengyun was slightly aware that Ling Pengyun was looking at the large clouds and mist, showing doubts. With such a look on his face, he took the initiative to explain something to Ling Pengyun.
Hearing this, Ling Pengyun’s doubts were dispelled.
Adhering to the way of life, Ling Pengyun also took out a first-class middle-grade Huangya Dan from his storage bag during his Qi training period, handed it to the maid who led the way, and handed it to the maid who led the way. Send people away.
There is no one guarding the outside of Lingzhi Hall, and you can come and go at will.
Ling Pengyun also stepped into Lingzhi Hall, walked to the counter of Lingzhi Hall, and found a Bailing Sect Qi Practitioner who was working at the counter, and told him that he wanted to find Yan Cang, the master of Lingzhi Hall. .
"Senior, Hall Master Yan is busy with official duties. Senior, have you made peace with Hall Master Yan? If not, it will be difficult for me to find Hall Master Yan." The Qi Practitioner saw Ling Pengyun revealed. Establishing the foundation to coerce him, he said respectfully.
Ling Pengyun also understood when he heard this.
He waved his hand and patted the storage bag on his waist, took out a token with the word "Yan" engraved on it, and handed it to the handyman.
This token was given by Yan Cang when Ling Pengyun attended the 100-day banquet of his nephew Wu Hong a few years ago.
The handyman reached out to take the token handed over by Ling Pengyun and looked at it carefully.
When he realized that the token contained Yan Cang's aura, he looked shocked.
The look of the handyman also became more respectful. After handing the token to Ling Pengyun again, he replied verbally.
“Senior, Hall Master Yan is currently taking care of the spiritual plants planted in the Lingzhi Park in the park. Although you know the hall master, our Bailing Sect also has rules. People who are not my Lingzhi Hall, You are not allowed to enter the Lingzhi Garden at will. In order to prevent evil people from harming the spiritual plants planted by me at Bailingmen in the garden."
"I will type the messenger now to inform the hall master to come out of the garden. Senior, please wait here for a while."< br>
After saying that, the person took out a communication talisman from the storage bag and punched it out.
Ling Pengyun nodded slightly when he saw this, and stood quietly aside.
I waited for about a hundred breaths.
The master of Lingzhi Hall, Yan Cang, turned into a breeze and quickly entered Lingzhi Hall from the outside world. He came to Ling Pengyun and said with a smile.
“Little friend Ling, I finally waited for you to come.”
"Hey, my little friend has entered the middle stage of foundation building from the second floor of foundation building after not seeing each other for several years. It seems that you, little friend Ling, have had great opportunities in the past few years."
"Senior Yan, you are joking. I am able to achieve such a state because of the foundation built by my natal soul, which has given me a lot of spiritual power," Ling Pengyun explained.
“With my little friend’s accomplishments in Ling Zhi, my natal Ling Zhi has entered the foundation building again. I think my Ling Zhi has also entered the second level.”
“Congratulations, little friend. Ah, maybe you, my little friend, can improve another kind of spiritual rice soon by relying on the methods of the second-level spiritual planter." Yan Cang said with a smile.
"Improvement of spiritual rice requires opportunity. If there is not enough opportunity, it may be difficult to improve." Ling Pengyun said helplessly.
"This is true. Back then, I improved high-quality spiritual rice such as Yancang Lingdao. But now, dozens or nearly a hundred years have passed, and I have still stopped making progress in improving the spiritual rice. I have only improved two kinds of spiritual rice. It's just a high-quality spiritual rice that won't help me much."
"I only have about ten years left in my life. I'm afraid that's all I will achieve in improving spiritual rice in this life." After hearing this, I was suddenly touched and sighed.
Ling Pengyun had a discussion with Yan Cang for several days a few years ago. He was somewhat aware of Yan Cang's character and understood that he was not the kind of person who liked to show off.
At this time, Ling Pengyun could also tell that Yan Cang's sigh was his true feelings.
Ling Pengyun couldn't help but feel envious of Yan Cang's talent in improving Ling Zhi.
In his entire life, he had only improved the good first-order low-grade Qiuyun spiritual rice, which was completely incomparable with Yan Cang's achievements in improving the spiritual rice.
"Senior, you have said too much. You are still strong, and there are many spiritual objects in Bailingmen. There are not many spiritual objects that can enhance longevity. Senior, you have enough opportunities to make progress in improving spiritual rice. Farther." Ling Pengyun comforted.
After hearing this, Yan Cang noticed that he had lost his composure, his expression returned to normal, and he asked.
"Little friend Ling, are you here to talk to me about Taoism?"
"Exactly, I wonder if senior can give me some pointers again." Ling Pengyun said with a smile.
A few years ago, his discussion with Yan Cang, a second-level high-ranking Ling Zhihu, made him benefit a lot from Ling Zhi.
This time he came to Bailing Gate. Apart from the blind date, the other thing he wanted to do was to find Yan Cang and ask for advice from him again.
“You are so polite, little friend. I don’t have any advice, just exchange with each other. In the past few years, I have been looking forward to discussing things with you again.”
“This Lingzhi Church People are coming and going, so it is not a good place for chatting. You are not from Bailing Sect, so it is difficult for you to follow me to the quiet room of Lingzhi Hall. My friend, please go to my private house. "Yan Cang said a little. He said happily.
Although the level of Yancan Lingzhi is high, it is not comparable to Ling Pengyun in the Lingzhi field, but Ling Pengyun is one of the few Lingpeng geniuses in Bailingmen who have improved high-quality spiritual rice.
Being able to discuss things with such geniuses will be of some help to Yan Cang in improving his spiritual rice in the future.
Yan Cang took the first step and led Ling Pengyun out of Lingzhi Hall. They walked along the path for about half a stick of incense, and the two finally entered a large courtyard.
This courtyard is very large, and there are four acres of first-class spiritual fields in the courtyard.
Behind the Lingtian, there is a three-story bamboo building, and there is a backyard behind the bamboo building.
What is grown in the four acres of spiritual fields in the front yard are not elixirs, but four kinds of elixirs: green jade cabbage, white jade radish, purple eggplant, and waxy fragrant corn.
Seeing this scene, Ling Pengyun couldn't help but show a hint of envy and muttered to himself.
“It’s a pity that the number of spiritual fields in the family is not large. It needs to plant jade series of spiritual rice and elixirs that can be used to refine elixirs, and there is no spiritual kitchen inheritance. Otherwise, if a few acres of spiritual vegetables can be planted, It’s a blessing to be cooked by a spiritual chef.”
Although the value of spiritual vegetables is similar to that of elixirs of the same level, elixirs can be refined into elixirs, while spiritual vegetables need to be cooked by spiritual chefs. Only by eating can you maximize the benefits of spiritual vegetables.
The Ling family has a weak foundation. It has only been established for more than two hundred years and has not yet collected the rare inheritance of spiritual chefs.
The spiritual food cooked by the spiritual chef is much better than the elixirs of the same level. It is completely comparable to the spiritual water of heaven and earth of the same level. It is a way to improve your cultivation. Great choice.
However, due to the rare inheritance of spiritual chefs, the spiritual food in major restaurants on the market are generally extremely expensive. Even Ling Pengyun has never eaten spiritual food many times in his life.
Just when Ling Pengyun came back to his senses, the tip of his nose smelled a rather rich aroma of dishes mixed with a few hints of aura.
“The fragrance of spiritual food!” Ling Pengyun said with a bit of shock.
When Yan Cang heard the words, he nodded lightly and said with a smile.
“It’s the aroma of spiritual food. It seems that my friend is also a discerning person. It’s dinner time now, and my dear friend is my distinguished guest. Let’s have a casual meal with me and let’s discuss the truth together. ." Without waiting for Ling Pengyun to respond, Yan Cang took the first step, bypassing the three-story bamboo building in the courtyard and heading towards the backyard.
"Senior Yan has a good life. The foundation-building monks are already able to live without grains, but they still enjoy it so much." Ling Pengyun looked at Yan Cang's back with a slightly envious expression and said to himself.
Yan Cang took the initiative to invite him, so he naturally had no reason to refuse.
He also followed Yan Cang's pace and walked towards the backyard.
Just as Ling Pengyun stepped into the backyard, he saw in the open kitchen on the first floor of the bamboo building, a pretty young female nun wearing a Bailingmen robe, standing on the kitchen stove. In front of the stage, he used the foundation-building spiritual fire and a special secret method to cook a pot of jade cabbage on a first-order spiritual iron pot that had been forged with spiritual iron.
Ling Pengyun's eyes moved when he saw the special technique of the female cultivator.
“A spiritual chef who is in the realm of foundation building, judging from the skills of this female cultivator, I think this person has a lot of attainments in the spiritual kitchen.”
At the next moment, the bamboo building kitchen The female cultivator among them also noticed Ling Pengyun who had been watching her, and she glanced at Ling Pengyun.
Seeing that Ling Pengyun's face was unfamiliar, he had never seen it before. The Taoist robes that Ling Pengyun was wearing looked like those of family Taoist robes from the outside world, embroidered with some special patterns that contained profound meanings.
In addition, the aura exuding from Ling Pengyun's body was strong enough to reach the middle stage of foundation building, and its vitality was not weak. The young female cultivator was secretly puzzled.
"This person is not from our Bailing Sect. It is rare for him to have entered the middle stage of foundation building at such an age."
"Grandpa rarely brings people back for dinner. It seems that this person has something to do with grandpa. Some friendship.”
Because she was cooking spiritual food, the female nun didn’t get distracted too much. She quickly turned back, stopped looking, and continued to focus on cooking the dishes in the pot.
Ling Pengyun also came back to his senses because of the female cultivator's gesture, and sat down with Yan Cang at the dining table in the backyard with two dishes and one soup.
"Little friend Ling, there are not many dishes, I hope you don't dislike it." Yan Cang said.
"Senior, you are joking. If I am not mistaken, the dishes and spiritual soup on this table are all based on the first-order high-grade spiritual food and the first-order high-grade spiritual food cooked by the fairy in the Zhulou kitchen. ."
"This If the two dishes and one soup were placed in a major restaurant outside, I'm afraid it would be worth hundreds of spiritual stones."
"This meal is considered luxurious. Thank you, senior, for allowing me to take it by mouth. How can I dislike it?" Ling Pengyun said.
“My little friend is quite sweet. I’m waiting for my granddaughter to finish cooking the last dish, which is three dishes and one soup. Let’s start dinner again. What do you think?”
Yan Cangwen He said, with a smile on his face, obviously benefiting from what Ling Pengyun said.
Ling Pengyun's expression changed slightly when he heard what Yan Cang said that the fairy cooking dishes in the kitchen was Yan Cang's granddaughter.
"Senior Yan's lineage is full of capable people. Judging from his granddaughter's level of cooking spiritual food, I'm afraid her future achievements will not be low."
He thought that it was Yan Cang Specially hired to cook spiritual food for him.
After all, with Yan Cang’s status as the master of the Bailing Sect’s Lingzhi Hall, and the highest-level monk below the Jindan Master in the Bailing Sect, it is not surprising that he specially hires a spiritual chef to make spiritual food. .
The thoughts returned, Ling Pengyun said.
"It's natural. You have to wait for the cook to eat."
Yan Cang quite agreed with this and looked at Ling Pengyun more favorably.
The two chatted for a while. Yan Cang's granddaughter, who was cooking spiritual food in the kitchen, also finished cooking the last dish and walked out of the kitchen carrying the last dish of jade cabbage.
"Grandpa, who is this fellow Taoist?" Yan Cang's granddaughter asked after placing the last piece of jade cabbage on the backyard dining table, looking at Ling Pengyun.
"I forgot to introduce you. The person next to me is Ling Pengyun, the supreme elder of the Lingxiao Ling clan in Huaishui County, Jingzhou, the territory of Bailingmen."
"More than ten years ago, this little friend Ling improved a kind of high-quality spiritual rice, which became famous in our Bailingmen world. He is a well-deserved new star of spiritual rice in our Bailingmen world."
"This time I will introduce Ling Xiaoyou I brought it home with the intention of discussing it with her.”
After introducing Ling Pengyun to the young female cultivator, Yan Cang gave a brief introduction to Ling Pengyun.
"Little friend Ling, this is my granddaughter named Yan Siyi. Although she has not inherited the spiritual cultivation technique that I am good at, she is still a spiritual chef. She has some differences with my spiritual cultivation technique. After all, she needs Use the spiritual vegetables grown by our husband Ling Zhi.”
“Fairy Yan, I’m sorry,” Ling Pengyun said with her hands in hand.
After hearing Ling Pengyun's introduction, Yan Siyi thought highly of Ling Pengyun. "No wonder this person was brought home by my lonely grandfather."
Then she smiled and said politely. "It turns out to be fellow Taoist Ling. I have heard my grandfather mention this name many times in the past."
"Fairy, don't make fun of me." Ling Pengyun didn't take this matter too seriously and just laughed. One sentence.
Yan Cang on the side also began to smooth things over and spoke out.
“Alright Siyi, please take a seat, don’t stand.”
Yan Siyi nodded lightly and sat down at the dining table.
This small incident did not affect the chat between Ling Pengyun and Yan Cang.
As the only female cultivator at the dinner table, Yan Siyi and Ling Pengyun were chatting with Ling Zhi. She didn't understand, so she listened quietly.
The meal was finished quickly. Yan Cang and Ling Pengyun also entered a quiet room in the bamboo building in the courtyard and exchanged experiences with each other about spiritual planting and improving spiritual rice.
And Yan Siyi cleaned up the mess at the dinner table.
It took more than ten days for Ling Pengyun and Yan Cang to finish their discussion.
Quiet room.
"Senior, this junior has benefited a lot from this discussion. If the junior can improve another kind of spiritual rice in the future, I will definitely give him a gift and thank him." Ling Pengyun thanked Yan Cang who was sitting cross-legged in front of him.
"There is no need for this. I have also gained some insights on how to improve my spiritual rice from this discussion with you."
"Then this is the end of this discussion, and I should also Go back to the spiritual plant park behind the Lingzhi Hall to take care of the high-level spiritual plants, otherwise you may be blamed by the sect if you delay.”
Yan Cang was quite satisfied after hearing what Ling Pengyun said and smiled.
Seeing Yan Cang was about to leave, Ling Pengyun hesitated for a moment and said.
"Senior Yan, in addition to discussing Taoism, I actually want to ask for one thing from you this time."
Hearing this, Yan Cang frowned slightly.
If ordinary people begged him, he would definitely ignore it and leave directly.
But Ling Pengyun improved a high-quality spiritual rice at a young age, and was considered a genius in terms of spiritual cultivation.
He also admired Ling Pengyun quite a lot.
In addition, Ling Pengyun is also the cousin of the daughter-in-law of Lingfu Master Wu Tian, one of the three Jindan Masters in Bailingmen, so it is not bad for Ling Pengyun to owe him a favor.
