537、The scorpion(1/2)

Hua Zhenxing put away the file bag, and the matter came to an end. There was no longer any discussion at the wine table. Everyone chatted for a few more times, and Mr. Feng suddenly said: "Xiaohua's craftsmanship is really good, but this dish..."

Old Man Yang interrupted him and said, "Is it not to your taste? Is it because you can't drink or can't keep your mouth shut?"

Mr. Feng: "It's very well done. I can't find any faults except that it's a little lacking in sophistication."

Old Man Yang sneered: "Someone who doesn't enjoy wine and meat, actually thinks this pot is not vegetarian enough?"

Dan Zicheng stood up and said, "I'm going to serve the fresh short leg yellow."

There are two special vegetables in Wucheng area, which are different from the Chinese cabbage and pak choi commonly seen in supermarkets. They are named Gaoganbai and Dajiaohuang. When locals call them cabbage and green vegetables, they usually refer to these two vegetables.

The leaf stems of Gaozhanbai are very long and white. When the leaves are removed, they look like a white jade ruler. They are usually used to process local specialty fragrant pickles. Cut the stems into strips as thick as a tachyon and as long as a finger, and dry them.

Pickled, it is very fragrant when served with rice.

The locals call coriander coriander or coriander, and mentioning coriander refers to this fragrant pickled vegetable.

The short-footed yellow plant is very small. It looks a bit like a small rapeseed at first glance. It tastes very tender. It can also be boiled in a pot and eaten. Fresh short-footed yellow is also available in winter.

Mr. Feng stretched out his hand to stop Dan Zicheng: "Four people are drinking in one pot. In this situation, we can definitely put a few more plates. Elegant dishes such as Feng Hua Xue Yue are better served with wine."

Old Man Yang sneered and said: "You must be a foreigner! The so-called first-class pot means that there are as many people as one table, and everyone eats this pot. The pots come in different sizes and depths, and the dishes can have multiple layers of meat and vegetables. Three layers, five layers, or seven layers can be used.

Usually in odd numbers.

It can be layered with meat and vegetables in sequence, or it can be mixed with meat and vegetables, or vegetarian with meat... Egg dumplings are usually placed on the top layer." At this point, he turned around and asked, "Dan Zicheng, do you know why Yipin hotpot is called Yipin hotpot?

?”

Dan Zicheng: "Ah, doesn't it mean that the official residence is of the first rank? The New Year dishes are just for show."

Mr. Feng slapped Kuaizi and said, "It's vulgar, it's vulgar! It's a folk dish. When did it become a special dish?"

Why do we need to engage in class aesthetics when eating a meal? In ancient times, there were people who were full of class consciousness, envied and preached that people are superior to others. That was the limitation of the times. Aren't you also awake?"

Dan Zicheng shrank his neck and didn't talk back obediently. Old Man Yang choked back: "It's just the name of a dish, and it makes you bring out your class consciousness! Do you understand aesthetics? Then tell me the meaning of Yipinguo!"

Mr. Feng raised the empty glass, Hua Zhenxing and Dan Zicheng filled the bottle at the same time, and finally Dan Zicheng poured the wine for him. Mr. Feng drank a glass of wine, and then said slowly -

"Those who taste it have a lot to eat. No matter how many people are at the table, it is just one pot of food. When visiting relatives and friends during the Chinese New Year, when guests come to the door, the host will cook whatever he has and mix all the dishes into one pot."

Old Man Yang: "So you know?" Then he nodded again and said, "It's an elegant taste in folk customs to eat just one pot for many people, but..."

Mr. Feng: “I haven’t finished speaking yet!

Those who taste food know the taste. All kinds of people, no distinction between high and low, between host and guest, eating from the same pot, and knowing all the tastes in the world, can be called a taste.

"Quality" also means conduct. Since one knows all kinds of tastes in the world and maintains chastity, one can also be called a first-class person."

Dan Zicheng quickly poured another glass of wine: "Mr. Feng, you are still smart, this is beyond your realm!"

Hua Zhenxing had to interrupt: "Guys, what you just talked about was Yipin hotpot, which is Huizhou cuisine. And what I made today is clay pot, which is Wucheng cuisine. This is not Yipin hotpot!"

Mr. Feng looked innocent: "It's not me who started the conversation. It was Lao Yang who first mentioned Yipin Guo. And according to what I just said, the word 'pin' has many words, which means knowing the taste and being ethical. Today's meal can be considered a Yipin Guo."

ah."

Old Man Yang: "Oh, you made a mistake too?"

Mr. Feng said bitterly: "I just said that we could have a few more dishes of romance to make it easier to drink, but it turned out to be off track... Forget it, next time."

Hua Zhenxing: "Even if it's romantic, I don't know how to do it!"

Old Man Yang shook his head and said, "I asked you to read so many cookbooks for nothing! I'll give you another one." As he spoke, he took out a book from nowhere and wanted to hand it to Hua Zhenxing.

But the book was taken away by Mr. Feng: "Oh, where did it come from?"

Old Man Yang: "What I copied from the Zhengyimen Scripture Collection Pavilion must have been made by a junior member of the Zong family. It made Mr. Feng laugh."

Mr. Feng: “Is this a serious recipe?”

Old Man Yang: "It is both a recipe and an elixir book. When I helped Xiaohua develop the Five Qi Chunrong Dan, I was somewhat inspired by it."

Mr. Feng also took out a book from nowhere: "I have a serious cookbook here, Xiaohua. I gave it to you today. You must work hard next time!"

Hua Zhenxing took the two books in confusion. The one given by Old Man Yang was called "Fang Fang Pu" and the one given by Mr. Feng was called "Hundred Flowers". Neither of them looked like serious names!

Hua Zhenxing even wondered if the two men had made a mistake. Are they sure it was given to him and not to Sima Zhi?

"Meal Recipe" is a handwritten copy of Old Yang. The old man's handwriting is very beautiful, and it can be used as a copybook. "Baihua Delicacy" is a printed Song version of an ancient book, even the cover is missing, and it seems more

It should be kept in a museum collection.

Hua Zhenxing: "Mr. Feng, where did your book come from?"

Mr. Feng: "Thirty years ago, I just graduated from college and stayed in Pingjing for half a year because of work. I bought it from a ghost market for 200 yuan."

Hua Zhenxing: "Ghost market? How come I haven't heard of it? Can I still find such good things?"

Mr. Feng: "Your good friend Xiaoyouzi used to like visiting that place, but by the time he visited, it should have been renamed Panjiayuan Counterfeit Market."

In short, this meal was worth two meals, and he ate from noon to evening. By the time Hua Zhenxing returned to school, it was already past the off-duty time. He hurriedly hurriedly and slowly finally flew to Wucheng on time, but he was still one day late for registration.

For the entire semester that followed, Hua Zhenxing's life was almost peaceful. This was the norm for ordinary people, and also for monks. It was impossible for demon kings to raid every day, was it still a human life?

It seems to be leisurely in the calm, but in fact it is also very busy, or to be more accurate - Huazhenxing is also living a very fulfilling life.

Even if he is still at the "merely" Seventh Level cultivation level, Hua Zhenxing still insists on refining the world in the gourd every day. At the same time, he continues to understand the form-swallowing formula, practice the method of swallowing form, and begins to refine the White Crane Demon King's leftover body.

The Xuan Mizhu below.

Rather than refining, it is better to say that it is absorbing, understanding its previous cultivation realm, natural talents, magical powers, etc., and integrating it into the form and spirit.

It is fusion but not fusion. The purpose of Hua Zhenxing is not to transform into that crane, let alone become the ancient White Crane Demon King through this method.

This process was extremely impatient. One semester passed, and the Xuan Mizhu was still the same. It was not like what Old Man Yang said, because his refining dissipated invisible.

Manman is still at Pingjing University, and has not transferred to the Wucheng branch of Feigong University like Hua Zhenxing. This is also what Hua Zhenxing means. Talents studying abroad in several countries must experience various fields, criticize while studying, and learn through criticism.

Hua Zhenxing is still interning at Fangguan Development Wucheng Branch and often goes to Pingjing during holidays or weekends. He has become adept at swallowing a crane and flying freely, much faster than an ordinary crane. He wants to see Manman in Pingjing.

There are two options -

The first is to spend most of the day swallowing the shape of a crane and flying over by itself.

The second is to spend a few hundred yuan and take the high-speed train there in four and a half hours.

Hua Zhenxing's choice is to take the high-speed rail! Even if he swallows the form of a crane and uses wind magic, his flying speed cannot keep up with the Dongguo High-speed Rail, especially over long distances.

Flying from Wucheng to Pingjing, if you don't take a plane, you have to fly by yourself. Even if you transform into a crane and use wind magic, it will take at least twelve hours. By the time you get there, you will be very tired.

If the small bench was still there, the time would be faster, but it would not be as convenient and comfortable as taking the high-speed rail. But Hua Zhenxing did not delay practicing the Swallowing Technique because of this. Sometimes he would deliberately fly out of a few stations first, quietly

After landing, transfer to the high-speed train.

In addition to the form of swallowing the crane, Hua Zhenxing is also practicing the form of swallowing the wither. The two techniques are indeed analogous. After practicing the form of swallowing the crane, it is not difficult to get started with the form of swallowing the wither.

With the experience of swallowing the shape of a crane and flying from Yangyuan Valley to Wucheng, there is no need to take so many detours and cause accidents when swallowing the shape of a withered crane.

The speed of the withered shape is obviously faster than that of the crane shape. It is comparable to a high-speed rail when it folds its wings and dives. With Hua Zhenxing's physical fitness and the help of wind magic, it can even be faster than the high-speed rail.

But after all, it is just a bird, and it is impossible to continue flying long distances in this attitude. From the perspective of economic applicability, comfort and convenience, taking the high-speed rail is still a better choice.

It was during this flight that Huazhenxing determined Huanxiang Tebang's future high-speed rail construction plan. However, it was too expensive to build this thing. Fortunately, the high-speed rail mileage required by Huanxiang Tebang was not too exaggerated.

The Xing Hua True Practice of Swallowing the Shape is currently just practiced by myself. Old Man Yang is right. The inheritance of the Swallowing Shape Technique has higher requirements for the master than the disciples. Teaching is more difficult than learning. If you cannot understand a certain state yourself, it is difficult to clearly understand it.

Teach others.

Hua Zhenxing also planned to remind Sima Zhi when the time comes and go to the high mountains to the west of Yangyuan Valley to talk to the male and female Mianqiu and learn some experience from each other.

If you can't find the pair of crown cranes, Sima Zhi can also look for other cranes. But don't fly all the way like Hua Zhenxing did after the New Year, and didn't even meet a serious white crane, but only met a stupid bird on the island.

Later in the semester, Hua Zhenxing was also trying to practice the form of swallowing the dragon. As he gradually understood the state of swallowing the form, he actually became a master of the form of swallowing the dragon, which was very different from swallowing the crane and swallowing the withering.

He was just getting started, so when Hua Zhenxing occasionally practiced swallowing dragons, he didn't go too far and only tried his skills in Qingyi River.

The furthest trip was when he ran along the Qingyi River to the Yangtze River, which was already the boundary of Jinghu Lake. He also went ashore to visit Teacher Ding. Ding Qi and his wife were away from home because of something, so Zhu Shanxian invited him to have a meal.

When wandering in the river, although Huazhen Xing tries his best to do so in the dead of night, the waves will still be noticed by people.

As a result, there were rumors of "water monsters in Qingyi River" in Wucheng area, and it was even stirred up by the self-media. Many people formed teams to explore water monsters at night, and stayed by the Qingyi River in the middle of the night to broadcast live...

When this happens, Hua Zhenxing can detect it from afar, and then he swims over. All people can see is the waves in the river.

That day, he finished eating at Fangwaimen, and on his way back in the evening, he still went upstream from the Qingyi River to turn into a dragon. Maybe he drank a little wine to get in the mood, or maybe he gained some experience from practicing swallowing the dragon in one breath.

We ran to Peach Blossom Pond in the upper reaches of Qingyi River.

It was already bright at this time.

Peach Blossom Pond is actually a section of the Qingyi River. The river widens here and there are cliffs on one side. The river swirls under the cliffs and is bottomless. In spring, peach blossoms on the cliffs fall and swirl in the pond. The ancients called it Peach Blossom Pond.

In a secluded place on the cliff beside Peach Blossom Pond, there stood a woman in white clothes. She looked to be no more than eighteen or nineteen years old, holding a short snow-white staff in her hand.

The spotted dragon transformed by Hua Zhenxing had just sneaked into the Peach Blossom Pond when he saw her inserting a short staff into her belt, taking off the necklace and bracelet she was wearing and clasping them together to form a ring with a chain, and then the chain connected the ring

Throw it down...

The flying chain turned into a hundred feet, and the buckle went into the water to pick up the lock of the spotted dragon. He lifted Hua Zhenxing from the Peach Blossom Pond to the top of the cliff, and also used magic to hide his traces so that ordinary people would not notice.

With Hua Zhenxing's cultivation, regardless of whether he was an opponent or not, he might have struggled a few times, but at this moment he was unaware and unprepared. He was so excited that he was suddenly caught by the magic weapon.

The silver ring fastened her waist, and the blue chains tied her up. The magical power was also banned. She lost the ability to change in an instant, and recovered her body in an instant. Only when she was lifted to the shore did she see the woman in white.
To be continued...
