Chapter 191 The little shock You Su brought to the Tumu people
The second floor of Gu Yue Ju is divided into the Accord. This is not only the best place to eat in Gu Yue Ju, but also the best place in the entire Xuanxiao Sect. The viewing location is only because Gu Yueju is backed by a cliff.
Looking out from the second floor, you can see the atmosphere of an immortal family, with steaming clouds, cranes flying into the sky, and deer walking in the sky.
Many elders and deacons who have left the Five Grains also have their own exclusive rooms here. Before they have a meal, they often bring two bottles of wine from Bihua Residence under the Third Elder Peak, and then find three or two Taoist friends, or they drink it by themselves, accompanied by delicious food and beautiful scenery. It is a beautiful thing that even immortals cannot forget. also.
The three of them arrived at the box. Ji Lingruo was curious about everything she saw. She chose a seat by the window and sat down, looking at the scenery outside the window, her mind and appetite widened.
As soon as she sat down, she couldn't wait to pick up a piece of light blue pastry and taste it. It melts in your mouth, sweet but not greasy, and a refreshing feeling spreads throughout your lungs.
Ji Lingruo couldn't help but her eyes lit up and said:
"It's delicious! Brother, try it quickly!"
As she said that, she picked up a piece of pastry and handed it to You Su continued to eat one bite after another, finishing his piece in a few seconds.
"Thank you, junior sister." You Su thanked you with a smile.
Ji Lingruo suddenly seemed to remember something and glanced at the silent Fairy Wangshu, only to realize that the girl in the white dress was staring at the cakes on the plate.
Ji Lingruo pursed her lips and pushed the plate towards Fairy Wangshu. After all, she and Fairy Wangshu were not intimate enough to feed the food with their own hands:
"Fairy Wangshu, you should try it too."
Fairy Wangshu paused for a moment before reaching out to take it, but in the end she took back her half-stretched hand, lowered her eyes and shook her head gently. shook his head.
Ji Lingruo frowned, confused.
Wangshu looked at the cakes with an expression of curiosity and wanted to try them, so why did he stop?
Could it be...
Ji Lingruo glanced at the exquisite jade rabbit mask on Fairy Wangshu’s face and asked:
“Fairy Wangshu, what are you doing? Don’t you want to eat?”
When asked suddenly, Wang Shu looked very flustered, her eyes wandered, and she hesitated:
"I, I can't eat."
Can't eat?
Ji Lingruo once again confirmed her inner guess, and said helplessly:
“Fairy Wangshu, we will all be members of the same sect soon, can’t we even take off our masks in front of us? ?”
You Su thought about it carefully, and it seemed that the senior sister had never taken off her mask. But to him, a blind man, it makes no difference whether he takes off the mask or not. The senior sister must have her reasons for not picking it off. Therefore, You Su never took the initiative to ask questions, nor did he want to embarrass his senior sister, so he reminded him seriously:
"Junior sister!"
Ji Lingruo curled her lips, she was not interested in this potential love rival. I am still very curious about his true face.
Why does a person with such a temperament and figure have to cover his face with a mask every day?
Is it so beautiful that it is so tragic? Or should you not show facial flaws to others?
"I'm sorry, I really can't eat..."
Fairy Wangshu's head was buried deeper, and the little flowers in her snow-covered hair seemed to feel her emotions, and her body softened, no longer standing straight as a hairpin.
Ji Lingruo didn't know why, but seeing the girl's appearance, her heart softened again, and she felt that the novel cakes in her hands no longer tasted good.
"If you can't eat it, just eat it. Why are you apologizing to us? It's not like you did anything wrong."
Ji Lingruo didn't ask Fairy Wangshu to take it off again. Although her tone was still harsh regarding the mask, Fairy Wangshu clearly felt the kindness coming from her. This also made Wangshu regain his confidence. He raised his head and took the initiative to push the plate of pastries closer to Ji Lingruo.
You Su used his spiritual consciousness to 'see all these small actions'. Seeing that the two girls could get along more harmoniously, he was also happy and swallowed the cake in his hand happily.
But before he could be happy for a moment, the conflict appeared again.
"Junior brother, eat more."
Fairy Wangshu actually twisted a piece of pastry with her own hands and handed it to You Su, her eyes full of anticipation.
Ji Lingruo's eyes widened immediately. If I give it to you, you won't eat it. Do you want to keep it to show off in front of your senior brother?
“No eating allowed!”
"Why aren't you allowed to eat?" Fairy Wangshu asked puzzledly.
“Ask him!”
Ji Lingruo didn’t know how to explain for a while, so she had to blame You Su.
You Su had a headache. He took the cake from Fairy Wangshu's hand with a smile, quietly put it back on the plate, and said:
"Senior Sister, Junior Sister is reminding us to eat less. Pre-dessert, after all, we are here for dinner.”
“That’s it.”
Wang Shu nodded as if he had learned something new.
At this moment, the steward who led the way knocked on the door, and after receiving the answer, he walked in with an exquisite menu.
"Junior Brother Yousu, who is ordering?"
Firstly, there is no reason to let a blind man order food, and secondly, there is no reason to let a person who doesn't eat order food, Ji Lingruo can do it Volunteered and raised his hand:
"I'll have some!"
After the steward knew that the banshee was the third disciple of Lord Lotus Sword, he didn't dare to neglect Ji Lingruo and handed the menu to her with a busy smile. .
It is not an exaggeration to say that it is a menu, but it is actually a picture album. There is a dazzling array of dishes inside, all painted by spiritual painters who specialize in Taoist painting. They are as if they were real things, making people move with their index fingers just by looking at them.
But after looking at it for a long time, Ji Lingruo didn't even say half of the name of the dish.
Because the prices are too astonishing, although she is the second young lady of the Snake Clan, she actually does not live a luxurious life under her sister's education.
"You chestnut chickens, how dare you sell one hundred and fifty spiritual stones? With this money, I can buy a top-grade rejuvenation pill! Why don't you go and grab it?" Ji Lingruo said angrily Close the menu.
“This junior sister doesn’t know something. The chickens we use are not ordinary chickens. They are old fairy chickens specially raised in Yushou Peak. They sell for one hundred and fifty spirit stones. To be honest, we all make a profit. Not much money. "
The steward said with a smile, but he felt helpless. The second floor of the Accord was not meant for poor disciples.
"Old Fairy Chicken? The fellow chicken I ate in Izumo City was not as bad as you guys!"
Ji Lingruo felt angry and touched her half-deflated purse. As the person who proposed to come here to eat, she had the responsibility to treat her. It would be too embarrassing if she turned back because she thought it was too expensive.
"I'm treating you, junior sister, you can order whatever you want." You Su could see Ji Lingruo's embarrassment. It must have been a huge expense for her to come here alone.
"Really?! Then I'll serve some old chestnut chicken. I want to see what's so good about your chicken!" Ji Lingruo is still very sensible and doesn't spend too much money just because You Su is inviting guests. , and then whispered, "By the way, this matcha cake doesn't cost money, right? Give us some more."
"Back to junior sister, I want money, ten spirit stones." The steward continued to apologize.
"What?! Then we've eaten half of this plate, and you can only count five!" Ji Lingruo said excitedly, even if it was You Su's money, she felt even more painful.
You Su smiled calmly when he heard this, took the menu from Ji Lingruo's hand, and then flipped through it several times with great purpose:
"This, this, and this "Please give me some, please, senior brother."
Ji Lingruo glanced at the dishes on the menu in disbelief. They were all the dishes she was very interested in after reading them just now. Only then did she realize that You Su had been observing her, and she could clearly detect which page her eyes were lingering on.
"Senior Brother... No need, right? I don't like eating these." Ji Lingruo looked at You Su's simple black robe and couldn't bear it, "This Snow Jade White Clam Soup is a Class B dish. It takes a full three hundred spiritual stones, which can buy a lot of things."
You Su responded with a smile and said boldly:
"My junior sister's happiness is more important than anything else. .Brother, that’s it, let’s serve.”
"Okay." The steward quickly took the menu and left.
When Ji Lingruo heard this, her heart felt as sweet as honey. She secretly decided to spend more money for her senior brother, but she still complained:
"Who wants you to pretend to be fat? ”
You Su Xiaoxiao didn’t answer, just poured a cup of tea for the two girls and started chatting. Soon, four dishes of delicious delicacies were served. Although Ji Lingruo felt pain in her body, she ate them faster than anyone else. It was rare for You Su to enjoy this salty and delicious taste, and he ate it freely.
Fairy Wangshu sat next to her, not moving her chopsticks at all, staring at the two people who were eating with relish, making them feel a little embarrassed.
Ji Lingruo simply stopped caring about her, picked up the drumstick of an old fairy chicken as a reward, put it into You Su's bowl, then picked up the other one, and asked knowingly: "Wangshu Fairy, can I just give you this chicken leg?”
“No, I can’t eat it,” Fairy Wangshu replied honestly.
Ji Lingruo showed a look of surprise, put it into his bowl as if to show off, and said with a smile:
"Then I have no choice but to accept the chicken legs that were paired with my senior brother. .”
When Fairy Wangshu heard this, her eyes looking at the drumstick changed obviously, but the desire was fleeting and was covered up by the gloom.
Ji Lingruo felt that this girl really had magic power, and it was unbearable to see this pure white girl being wronged. She did not use similar tricks to provoke Wangshu anymore, and started to eat in a decent manner. Had a meal.
The appetite of practitioners is much larger than that of ordinary people, and the two of them finished the four dishes.
When it was time to pay, Ji Lingruo boldly took out her small purse and took the initiative to pay. She felt that it was enough to feel You Su's heart.
You Su was surprised by the change of junior sister Xiao Cai Fan, and was moved in his heart. Sure enough, being kind to someone is mutual.
He took out the special silver seal given by Elder Zhu and settled the bill first. Only then did Ji Lingruo know that You Su ate here and the dishes below Grade A were free of charge! Her excitement just now was all fake! You Su could have said it earlier!
She angrily elbowed You Su again, and immediately, the three of them left again under the surprised eyes of everyone.
The next destination is naturally the eighth peak of Xuanxiao Sect - Tumu Peak.
Tumu Peak is the mountain peak in charge of civil construction. The Xuanxiao Sect can have such a towering Immortal style, and Tumu Peak is indispensable.
Looking from a distance, I realized that this was not a naturally formed mountain at all, but a giant peak made of stacked pavilions.
"In the center of Tumu Peak, there is a huge round tree that stands upright from the sky. It serves as the backbone of the mountain and carries it all. All the pavilions in the mountain are branches and leaves extending from that backbone. It does not grow naturally. The sacred tree is the masterpiece of the founder of Tumu Peak. It took a hundred years to create the man-made achievement of Tumu Peak."
The disciples who received him proudly introduced this man-made mountain. of strangeness.
"Just call me Fang Gong. It's not that my surname is 'Fang' and my first name is 'Gong', but everyone in Tumu Peak, regardless of seniority, has Gong as the suffix. Master is not in the peak now, but he ordered He still owes Junior Brother Yousu a request. As long as it can be built, Junior Brother, Tumu Peak will do his best.”
“Fang Gong, the people of Tumu Peak are like this every day. Outside, the skin is dark, and there is no female disciple in the whole mountain?" Fairy Wangshu was also visiting Tumu Peak for the first time. She felt that everything was strange and she couldn't help but asked curiously.
Ji Lingruo felt ashamed after hearing such a delicate and arrogant personality, and reminded her in a low voice: "Why do you attack others for no reason?"
Fairy Wangshu's eyes were blank: " I didn’t attack Fang Gong, I just asked about what I saw.”
For God’s sake, this clear-minded girl does not have any malicious intentions. Fang Gong also had a wry smile on his face, wondering why the autumn sun was so hot.
“Senior Sister’s words are true, but this further illustrates the greatness of the people of Tumu Peak. In order to build the foundation of the human race, they have been exposed to wind and rain all year round. They are great and good people.” You Su Education Road.
Hearing this, Fairy Wangshu nodded and sighed: "The people from Tumu Peak are really good people. Fang Gong, you must always be a good person."
"Of course. …”
Ji Lingruo looked at Fang Gong's ugly face and forcibly suppressed her smile for the sake of her new house.
......
"This is the speed of civil engineering!"
You Su looked around the brand new yet extremely familiar small house with his spiritual consciousness, and couldn't help but exclaimed loudly.
With just a few words from the junior sister, this small courtyard basically restored the layout of the Yuanyang Sword Sect one to one, and also added a finely decorated boudoir customized for Ji Lingruo.
Not only that, the facilities in the room are also more humane, such as the kitchen and shower room. Fang Gong led his disciples to build pipes underground to divert the spiritual spring water not far away, using a special array The method is to block the mouth of the pipe and open it as needed. In this way, there is no need to go out to fetch water when washing vegetables, laundry and bathing.
As for these projects, Tumufeng’s disciples only took half a day to complete them all before sunset.
"Senior Brother Fang, in the coming days I will personally present a banner with the words 'Infrastructure Madman' written on it to express my admiration for you."
You Su is respectful. Salute, or call him senior to show respect.
"Junior brother is joking, these are just a little effort. Tomorrow I will come and pave this mountain road for you. However, Lotus Peak is very rugged. Even if the road is paved, it will be difficult to walk. I hope junior brother can understand this. ”
Fang Gong helped You Su up, blaming himself for not being able to come up with a solution.
The problem of difficulty in going up and down the mountain is indeed difficult to solve. Fang Gong has come up with many solutions in his mind, but due to various factors, he feels that paving the road is the most effective.
"This is not Tumufeng's problem, senior brother, please don't blame yourself."
You Su touched his chin, suddenly seemed to think of something, and said, "But I have a way. It may reduce the burden of going up and down the mountain, but it will be more troublesome.”
“Junior Brother You, do you have a way?”
Fang Gong looked surprised, but the disciples behind him listened. Disdainful. Tumu Peak's professionalism is extremely strong among all the mountains. Suggestions put forward by non-Tumu Peak people are often castles in the air and difficult to implement.
In the past, Tumu Peak suffered heavy losses due to following outsiders' plans. Later, the peak leader ordered that construction matters could only be decided by the people of Tumu Peak, and others could only make requests.
Over time, a custom has developed. The people of Tumu Peak are not as good at handling swords as other immortals, so there are not many people who can be proud of. This professionalism is one of them, so they have a contemptuous attitude towards the method that You Su is going to say.
But Fang Gong still didn't want to reject You Su too bluntly. After all, he felt very comfortable getting along with You Su, so he had to say tactfully:
"Junior brother, I just say it doesn't matter. If it's feasible, I can also adopt it at my discretion.”
Even so, he was already prepared to refuse after You Su finished speaking.
After receiving the answer, You Su said:
“I wonder, Brother Fang, does he know how mortals get the water from the well?”
“Of course it is done with a pulley and hanging by a rope. Use the water basket to get water." Behind Fang Gong, there was a Tumu Peak disciple who responded first, thinking that laymen are just laymen, and showing off such basic knowledge in front of them is really ignorant.
"Yes, but do you know what is the fastest irrigation tool for farmland in the world?" You Su then asked.
At this time, the group of civil engineering disciples behind them were quite speechless, and it was Fang Gong who replied:
"The keel waterwheel is used, and the spokes are transported by people and carts. It rises and falls, and the water turns like jade."
You Su nodded in affirmation. The wisdom of mortals should not be underestimated, but whether it is writing, planting medicine, or building, etc., immortals often feel superior to others. , and ignore the wisdom of mortals. The fact that Fang Gong noticed this was enough for You Su to respect.
“There are chain links, ladder spokes, keels, and driving wheels and steering wheels, so that it can not only transport water, but also people.” You Su Dianxing said, “The power of mortals can create There is no keel ladder for transporting people, but in the afternoon Senior Brother Fang introduced me to the giant sacred tree that embodies Tumu Feng’s hard work, so I dared to think so.”
“This…”
< br>
Fang Gong was obviously frightened by this idea. The most significant difference between immortals and mortals in civil engineering was their productivity, which allowed them to complete tasks in half a day that would take mortals half a month. But this also makes them think less about solving engineering problems than ordinary people.
“Of course, if we really want to build it, it cannot be tilted. I think we can make a combination of a windlass and a keel waterwheel, which stands directly between the sky and the earth. People are like water in a hanging basket. , for people to go up and down. And the whole journey is on the ground, so it is not disturbed by the troublesome wind. This ladder is actually more suitable for the majestic Tumu Peak."
You Sujiang's idea. When everything was told, all Tumu Peak disciples, including Fang Gong, were shocked and speechless. They no longer dare to underestimate You Su, because all of them can feel that this plan is feasible!
"Junior Brother You! You are such a genius!"
Fang Gong excitedly put his hand on You Su's shoulder:
"The method you mentioned is very constructive. Sex! This will be the most valuable design of Tumu Peak in the past thousand years! I will go back and report it to Master! Once it is passed, we will use all our efforts to build this ladder for Lianhua Peak!"
Before You Su could persuade him to stay, Fang Gong couldn't wait to lead a group of disciples down the mountain.
On the bumpy mountain road, a disciple asked hesitantly:
"Fang Gong, although this method of traveling around Su is wonderful, it cannot be said to be the strongest in a thousand years. Isn’t it just a solution to the problem that we in Tumu Peak have to walk up and down the stairs? We are all accomplished people, so we are not too tired.”
Under Fang Gong’s simple face, his eyes were shining. Shenghui:
"You know nothing! What kind of civil engineer are you who only focus on the height of Tumu Peak? You have to look at the sky that you can't climb in millions of years!"
"Once this thing is proven to be feasible, Even if you are a mortal... you still have the opportunity to step on the ladder and reach the sky in one step!"
