Chapter 22 Zongmen New Year's Eve

After taking the last bottle of elixir given by Master Hu Feng, Liu Xiaolu finally stepped into the second level of the Baoyue Jue on the last day of this year, on New Year's Eve.

Sitting cross-legged on the bed and running the last big circle, slowly retracting the energy in the meridians back to the dantian. Only then did Liu Xiaolu get out of bed and stretch.

When he opened the door, two heads suddenly reached into the door, which scared Liu Xiaolu.

"Why are you two blocking at my door?"

"Hehe..." Mo Xiaoyuan shrugged his shoulders and said with a smile: "Are we here to find you to have dinner together?" As he said that, he and Wang Xiaobao pulled Liu Xiaolu up, left and right, and ran to the cafeteria.

"Hey, you guys run slower!!!" It seemed that she disliked her running slowly. Liu Xiaolu was put in the middle, and her feet were almost untouched by the two of them.

When he arrived at the entrance of the canteen, Liu Xiaolu knew why these two guys were so excited.

I saw two couplets written on red paper on the door of the canteen, and a big word "Fu" hung upside down. This is almost the only decoration that Liu Xiaolu saw in the sect this year, with a bit of New Year atmosphere. On weekdays, the entire sect looks meticulous and distinct in class. She originally thought that the mountain was just for the New Year.

There were also several senior brothers holding candied haws sticks standing at the door, wearing the unified green winter clothes of the sect, and the smile on their faces remained unabashed in the biting cold wind. The sticks in their hands were filled with circles of candied haws. Whenever new disciples walked in, they would give them one, which attracted a burst of cheers.

Thank you to the senior brothers of Candied Haws and walked into the door. Now the tables where you usually eat have been put together. There were dozens of small tables in the spacious canteen, and everyone sat in groups of three or three to two. Now the small tables are put together to form seven or eight large tables, with light gray tablecloths on them.

The most new disciples were surrounded by the table near the door. On the table, there were red trays to hold many snacks specially brought by seniors from the mountain, including sticky bean buns, osmanthus cakes, mung bean cakes, cloud cakes, glutinous rice dumplings, and big golden fruits... The table was filled with densely packed. Just one look made people greedy and slobber in their stomachs, and they couldn't help but drool.

After finally squeezing into the crowd, they chose a few snacks. The three of them sat down on a large table beside the corner of the wall. There were already a few people sitting on the table. Two young men with a similar appearance were a pair of cousins ​​among the new disciples. The eldest was Zhang Wen and the younger one was Zhang Wu. There were also two young disciples. The young woman with a slightly fat figure and a few scattered faces on her face was Senior Sister Sun, and the other one with sparse head and deep bags was Senior Brother Wu.

As soon as he got into the seat, Liu Xiaolu rolled her eyes, "Happy New Year, senior brothers and sisters! Oh, why do you feel that Senior Sister Sun is more beautiful than when she met last time!"

Hearing Liu Xiaolu's words, the fat senior sister Sun covered her mouth and laughed, "You little girl are just sweet-mouthed. Last time I coaxed me to give you two cans of candied dates. Today I want to see what you say."

"Hehe, how can that be considered a coaxing? It was clearly my senior sister who cared for her and gave it to me on his own initiative." Liu Xiaolu giggled, not caring about her behavior of coaxing her senior sister to have a snack, and continued with her face unchanged, "A few days ago, I learned a method of making red jade beauty cream in my master's medical book, and I have been thinking about having the opportunity to give it to Senior Sister Sun. My senior sister takes care of me so much, and I have to repay her with me, right?"

"Red Yu Beauty Paste? I haven't heard of it, how effective?" Senior Sister Sun touched the pockmark on her face, obviously feeling a little moved.

"Can the secret recipe for beauty care I learned from the medical books I treasured by my master still have poor results? Keep Senior Sister Sun's skin good like lard after using it!" Liu Xiaolu quickly patted her chest seriously and promised.

"Puff." Senior Sister Sun couldn't help laughing, and pointed Liu Xiaolu with her fingers a few times, "You little girl, your skin is like cream." As she said that, her face turned slightly red, "Three cans of candied dates?"

"Five cans! Or one tael of silver is fine!"

"make a deal."

Wang Xiaobao and Mo Xiaoyuan seemed to have become accustomed to Liu Xiaolu's amazing behavior and ate the delicious food on the table unmoved. On weekdays, there are only one meat and one vegetable meals when you eat at the canteen, and sometimes there is not even a single meat dish. Today, there are seventeen or eight dishes on the table, and there are seven or eight kinds of chicken, duck, fish and meat. The two of them just care about picking up food, and ignore Liu Xiaolu's sales behavior.

However, the two brothers of Zhang looked stunned and admiring. They probably had never seen a new disciple who was like Liu Xiaolu. On the other side, Senior Brother Wu still lowered his eyes and said nothing, and he couldn't bear to lift his eyelids. He looked drowsy, which made people think that this person was not coming to the canteen to eat, but just moved a place to sleep.

After completing the business, Liu Xiaolu was satisfied and focused on eating.

Master Hu Feng has a large collection of books, and most of them are about medical skills, and it covers a wide range of areas. It not only has life-saving techniques for saving lives, clearing heat and detoxifying, but also many folk remedies and secret methods for strengthening the body and beauty. On weekdays, Master Hu Feng does not restrict Liu Xiaolu from learning medical skills, and some ordinary medicinal materials in the medicinal material library are also used by her, and sometimes she even actively teaches her some knowledge about pharmacology. Therefore, Liu Xiaolu gradually became interested in these folk remedies.

Later, when he made these folk remedies into finished products and sold them to fellow seniors and sisters, and exchanged them for food, use or scattered silver at the foot of the mountain, it became a major hobby for Liu Xiaolu in addition to practicing.

This is not only because Liu Xiaolu is a wealthy fan, but as Baoyue Jue practices, her appetite is getting bigger and bigger. Every time she goes to the canteen to eat three bowls of rice, she doesn’t think it’s enough. Every time she adds a meal, the senior brothers in the canteen start to look at her with strange eyes. That’s fine. Anyway, there is no need to pay for the canteen to eat, so the senior brothers will not say much even if they feel it is strange. But after dinner, they are hungry very quickly. Every time they eat for less than an hour or two, they are hungry again and put on their chests on their backs.

The monthly silver of five taels of silver a month is unstoppable and has to be sent home, but being hungry is not a solution, so Liu Xiaolu found some tricks to subsidize her belly.

Liu Xiaolu was eating when she suddenly became quiet for a moment. She glanced at a figure from the corner of her eyes. She looked up and saw an old acquaintance walking into the door of the canteen.

Luo Lin used to eat in his own room, and someone delivered the food to the room. But the senior brother who delivered the food yesterday said that everyone would have New Year’s Eve dinner in the canteen today, so he would not come to deliver the food. Luo Lin had to come to the canteen to have dinner by himself.

Luo Lin is quite diligent and spends most of his time practicing in the room, and is not familiar with other inner disciples. Therefore, as soon as he entered the door, someone started discussing it in a low voice.

"Huh? Isn't this the genius disciple of the Peak Lord? Why did he come to have a meal alone?"

"What do you know? He is the grandson of the Lord of Shuiyue Peak. Lord Luofeng did not recognize him, so he entered our Jiaoyue Peak. Who would want to get in touch with him if he is shameless?"

"Wow, so that's it. Tsk tsk, I really didn't expect it."

......

Luo Lin lowered his head, took a deep breath, tried to look indifferent, and tried to relax his tense body.
Chapter completed!
