Chapter 193 You Su’s craftsmanship satisfied the third elder
Three days have passed and it is late autumn.
The sycamore leaves around the courtyard are falling one after another, dyeing the entire Lotus Peak with a layer of deep yellow. The mountain breeze carries the fresh fragrance of vegetation and blows into the face, making people feel relaxed and happy.
You Su put away the sword and ended this morning's practice.
Fairy Wangshu stood on one side with her sword behind her back, accompanying and supervising You Su's Liansheng sword technique throughout the process. She remained silent, neither praising nor criticizing, as if it was natural for her to just perform the sword technique once.
Ji Lingruo used three high-sounding reasons to avoid the three-day practice: first, she was tired from traveling and traveling, and needed to slow down for a few days; second, she had not officially started and could not learn the Liansheng sword technique. ; Third, her realm breaks through too quickly, so she should focus on stabilizing her realm through meditation first, instead of practicing Yangjian in a hurry.
But You Su always felt that junior sister was secretly busy with something that she didn't want others to know, so he didn't push her too much.
However, although Ji Lingruo is not seen during sword practice, she appears most punctually during meals.
Since having a kitchen, today is the first time that You Su plans to cook in person.
In the past three days, he originally planned to go down the mountain by himself and then ride a small flying stick (a cloud bamboo gift given by the third elder) to Gu Yueju to pack back, but the senior sister insisted on accompanying him. If the senior sister wants to accompany him, of course the junior sister will not just watch the two of them 'stay together and fly together'.
So the three of them headed to Guyueju with Fairy Wangshu holding Ji Lingruo and Yousu himself riding a small flying stick formation. Ji Lingruo wanted to sit on You Su's little flying stick, but You Su couldn't carry it himself, let alone someone else. Fortunately, under the protection of Fairy Wangshu, You Su gradually mastered the operation method of this cloud bamboo.
Guyueju is the dining hall of Xianjia. It uses exquisite materials and exquisite cooking methods. Even the food in the lobby can be called delicacies of mountains and seas. But after eating too much delicacies from the mountains and seas, it’s hard to avoid getting bored. Even the greedy Ji Lingruo missed the home-cooked snacks You Su cooked in the courtyard of the Yuanyang Sword Sect.
So today, You Su decided to show off his skills.
What he is best at is stir-fried pork with chili.
As its name suggests, Izumo Castle is surrounded by mountains on three sides and is humid with mist. Therefore, pepper is a very important local crop. The citizens of Izumo Castle need to eat spicy food to remove moisture from their bodies. Yousu and Ji Lingruo also developed the habit of eating spicy food.
Fortunately, You Su was not unskilled, and soon, a plate of fried pork with chili pepper and a plate of green vegetables that were full of color, flavor and flavor were brought to the table.
It is worth mentioning that although it is a common practice, the materials used are unusual. The vegetables used were spiritual vegetables ‘borrowed’ by senior sister from Bihua Peak, and the meat was also high-quality golden-haired pig purchased from Yushou Peak.
Smooth and tender light golden meat slices with a bright soy sauce color, red and green peppers with oily shine, steaming with full steam of the pot, a meaty aroma mixed with spicy aroma penetrates straight into it The nasal cavity made Ji Lingruo salivate and eager to try.
Under Fairy Wangshu’s curious eyes, Ji Lingruo picked up a piece of pork belly and put it into Tan’s mouth. Suddenly, her mouth was filled with the spicy taste, leaving endless aftertaste. At this moment, Ji Lingruo would never let go of a piece of fried meat, even if it was exchanged for Gu Yueju's delicacies.
“Senior brother, it’s delicious! Well... I want to eat it for the rest of my life!”
Unless she couldn't help it, Ji Lingruo would rarely express her praise for You Su so directly.
You Su also smiled happily when he heard this, as if he had cooked this dish for his junior sister for the first time when he returned to Izumo City. At that time, the junior sister couldn't eat spicy food, but now she doesn't like spicy food.
People will grow and their cultivation will increase, but this smell of human fireworks will never be forgotten. Maybe one day he will miss this taste when he reaches the top of the mountain. If you can really eat it for a lifetime, it will be a happy thing.
You Su broke away from his thoughts and laughed to himself that he could feel a lot of emotions like an old man just after eating. He also planned to use his chopsticks, but before doing so, he said very naturally:
"Senior sister, you should try it too."
As soon as he finished speaking, he realized that he had made a mistake. Even Ji Lingruo looked at him in surprise.
Fairy Wangshu has been accompanying them to eat in the past few days. Even the blind You Su can feel the disappointment of his senior sister who wants to eat but can't, so he and his junior sister tacitly agree not to go there intentionally. Make a request to let senior sister eat.
"I can't eat it, junior brother, please eat it."
Everyone can hear the sadness in the heart of the girl in the white dress.
You Su is really curious about the reason why the senior sister cannot take off the mask. A monk who has already escaped from the grain, obviously wants to eat so much, why can't he take off the mask?
Even the Ox Warrior in the memory fragments who claims that ‘Ou Warrior never takes off his mask’ all day long, has a moment when he takes off his mask, right?
However, the senior sister has her own persistence. No matter how curious he is, he will not sway the girl. "Senior sister, you can eat what you want. It will be fine if you take off the mask for a while." This kind of self-righteousness is good for senior sister, but in fact it is more likely to harm her.
"When senior sister wants to eat, tell junior brother, junior brother will cook it for you no matter what time." You Su comforted the girl's frustration with his promise, then turned to Ji Lingruo, who was winking, and said, "Junior sister "Yes."
Of course he couldn't see the girls' expressions, and everything he said came from his heart.
Wangshu's eyes were full of energy again, as if he were smiling:
"Thank you, junior brother."
You Su laughed it off and had a bowl of fragrant spiritual rice with himself. , taste it slowly.
As soon as she swallowed a mouthful, she heard Wang Shu reminding her: "The third elder is here."
As she finished speaking, a emerald green figure came over. Before the person arrived, I first smelled the rich fragrance like orchid and musk in the wind.
The third elder put on a new cheongsam, embroidered with water-like ink patterns, giving this round, bright and charming beauty a bookish air.
Before everyone could salute, the third elder asked: "What is this that smells so good?"
But before You Su could answer, the third elder's attention shifted to this pretty, oily-mouthed girl. On the girl.
"Ah! This must be the third disciple that Lord Lianjian wants to accept!"
The beautiful woman stared closely at Ji Lingruo's face, her face full of surprise The look was like seeing some rare treasure.
This is the first time for Ji Lingruo to meet the third elder, but she has also heard about it from You Su, and he is considered to be the elder who is closest to Lotus Peak. She quickly wiped the grease from her lips with a handkerchief and said respectfully:
"Ji Lingruo, I have met Venerable Bihua."
"No gifts, no gifts." The third elder hurriedly emptied his head. He held up his hands and helped Ji Lingruo up, "I am Venerable Bihua from the Bihua Peak of Xuanxiao Sect. I have a very good relationship with your master. When you see me, you don't need to be formal and salute. Just like your senior brother and senior sister, call me the third elder." But."
You Su secretly shook his head. The gap between these people was too big. They were both newcomers, but the third elder was much more enthusiastic towards his junior sister than him.
“Can, is it okay?” Ji Lingruo asked You Su carefully.
“The third elder has a distinguished position, so if you don’t show courtesy, it would be inappropriate...”
"Huh?!"
The third elder snorted, interrupting You Su's education to Ji Lingruo.
You Su suddenly felt a chill all over his body and quickly changed his words: "Junior sister, I don't know. The third elder is the most approachable elder of Xuanxiao Sect. If you insist on saluting, it will be inappropriate."
< br>
“Huh?” Ji Lingruo nodded stupidly, she was flattered to suddenly see this monk at the top of the human race, “Hello, Third Elder.”
“Hello to you too. "
The corners of the third elder's eyes were crooked, and his charming eyes never left Ji Lingruo's face.
She only heard that Lord Lianjian had accepted a new demon disciple. She wanted to ask He Shutong why he wanted to accept a demon as his disciple during such a sensitive period. This would most likely make him a target of public criticism, but instead Unexpectedly, after seeing this graceful girl, all the resentment she felt when she went up the mountain disappeared.
With such a beautiful little beauty, if she saw her, she would definitely take her as her disciple.
And she has such good taste, she likes to wear green as much as she does. It's just that she is a more mature emerald color, while the girl is a more beautiful cyan color.
"Why don't you go to Gu Yueju to eat instead of cooking by yourself?"
The third elder asked Ji Lingruo with a smile.
She has always turned a blind eye to the fact that Wang Shu came to her orchard to pick fruits for free.
“I made it because I wanted to eat the food cooked by my senior brother. The food cooked by my senior brother is very delicious. Have you eaten, Third Elder? If not, why don’t you sit down and eat some?”
Ji Lingruo was a little timid, but she forced herself to answer calmly, not wanting to show her timidity in front of the boss.
But what she said was completely devoid of fairy spirit. It was just like a simple shout from a neighbor during a meal. She seemed to have completely forgotten that the big man in front of her was a venerable person from the Cave Realm, and had long been an immortal who neither drank nor ate.
You Su was about to decline on behalf of the third elder when he heard the third elder say:
“I really haven’t eaten it, but what’s so delicious about this kind of food? I’ll take you and Wang Shu goes to Gu Yueju and tastes the fine delicacies there. It’s a welcome gift to you.”
No, what about me?
You Su smiled bitterly, Grade A dishes often cost tens of thousands of spirit stones, which was not what he could afford. The junior sister could only look at the Grade A menu and pray that she would be able to afford it one day. Now that she has the third elder to help her realize her dream, she only hopes that the junior sister can think of him and pack up the leftovers for him to bring back for a taste.
"Why are you so embarrassed? Besides, my senior brother has already cooked for me, so I'll just eat this. Thank you, Third Elder, for your kindness."
To You Su's shock, Ji Lingruo actually refused. The three elders showed their kindness when they met for the first time.
"Junior sister, the third elder will not invite people to dinner easily. This little dish is nothing, it can be fried every day, just leave it here and I will cook it myself."
The third elder looked at You Su glanced at it and said: "Don't eat it either, I just told you. Let's go to Gu Yueju together and show you the hidden menu."
You Su secretly laughed, he This is because of my junior sister.
"Third Elder... How about next time? The food cooked by senior brother is really delicious. In my opinion, this is a delicacy. I don't want to waste it..."
Ji Ling Ruo lowered his head and tangled his little hands nervously, not even daring to look at the third elder.
Hearing this, the third elder's smile froze, and he glared at You Su with a resentful look, as if to say, why are you always in the way of me flirting with girls?
Everyone in Lotus Peak is filled with stunning beauties. Why do they have to sneak in a stinky man like you?
"You have just started, and you respect and value your senior brothers and sisters so much. You are really a good boy. If you continue to invite me, it seems that I am forcing myself to do something difficult. Well, I will also try your senior brothers' craftsmanship and see if it works. It’s as good as you said.”
The third elder gave You Su a look, still smiling.
"No, no, please come quickly, Third Elder. Senior brother's craftsmanship will not let you down."
This small stone table only has three stone benches. Ji Lingruo quickly stood up and put his The position was given to the third elder.
The third elder pressed her shoulders and pushed her back:
"Sit down, I'll just take your senior brother's seat. He is a martial arts practitioner and eats while standing. Much more."
As she spoke, she moved her waist, flicked the folds of her skirt under her hips, and sat elegantly on the stone bench where You Su sat. You Su, on the other hand, could only fetch a brand new pair of bowls and chopsticks obediently, secretly cursing who here is not a martial arts practitioner?
Ji Lingruo stared at the huge and full curve of her waist and was secretly shocked. She glanced at You Su again and sighed that it was a good thing that her senior brother was blind. Otherwise, who could see such a butt and not feel so bad?
"Third Elder, please try it quickly." Ji Lingruo forced a smile and greeted, "This piece of fat and thin pork belly soaked in the sauce on the bottom of the plate is the most delicious."
The third elder smiled brightly, raised his jade chopsticks, and picked up the piece of golden pork pointed by Ji Lingruo.
She was extremely well-educated, and she stretched out her green-white soft skin to block the movement of food into her jade mouth.
In her opinion, Ji Lingruo's rejection of her invitation was entirely because she had never seen what real delicacies from the immortal family were, so she regarded the dishes cooked by a blind man as a treasure.
So she had an ulterior motive for deliberately tasting You Su’s cooking, just to secretly belittle it later. This way, next time I take Ji Lingruo to Gu Yueju for dinner, I can make Ji Lingruo completely dismissive of You Su's cooking.
Hmph, I’m telling you to get in the way!
“Yeah! It’s delicious!”
The third elder opened his beautiful eyes wide and was conquered by the oily and spicy taste in his mouth. He couldn’t help but praise aloud, completely forgetting that it was for He only used his chopsticks when he belittled You Su.
"Really! I said it was delicious!" Ji Lingruo said with a smile, looking cute and proud.
Even the silent Fairy Wangshu had curled eyelashes and looked very happy.
The third elder kept using his chopsticks and continued to pick up the fried meat and put it into his mouth. After eating, he didn’t even bother to cover it with his hands. He kept eating and kept making “hmm” sounds of praise.
For her, the taste of this dish is not top-notch at all, but this flavor makes her feel like she has returned to the days when she was just starting out and still walking on the earth.
She was not from a fairy family. At that time, she was also an ordinary person who had no way to seek immortality. She was just a medicine girl in a mortal medical clinic. Now that she has set foot on the top of the mountain, she often recalls that carefree time - every time she closed in the evening, she looked forward to which 'cooking technique' the shopkeeper's grandma would perform with the big iron pot, and the thick oil smoke As soon as it passed, she felt the greatest happiness after a hard day.
But now, not only are the people gone, but the city has been overthrown and rebuilt. She seeks her homeland, but things have changed.
The body of Venerable Dongxu made her not afraid of spicy food, but it seemed that it had touched the softest part of her heart.
The third elder gently put down his chopsticks, stood up suddenly, looked back at You Su, retracted all the previous teasing and contempt, and said calmly:
"The craftsmanship is acceptable. I'm just I won’t continue to grab your lunch. You continue, I’ll go see your master.”
After saying that, the beautiful woman walked briskly into the fairy forest at the back, and her voice came again. Come:
"I have left a mark on that pair of bowls and chopsticks, remember to wash them clean."
Hearing this, Ji Lingruo looked at the plate of fried pork with green peppers, which only had green peppers left, and her face was filled with tears. Feeling sad, he regretted in his heart and said:
I'll just be polite and let you try it. Why are you such a great Bigu Immortal still addicted to it?
