Chapter 494: Lively Courtyard
"hehe."
Gu Sanqiu and Hu Tao laughed at the same time because the sense of déjà vu was indeed too strong.
"It's almost time to call him over."
Gu Sanqiu glanced at Zhongli, who had a calm expression, then looked up to the sky and shouted in the direction of Guiliyuan.
"Brother Xiao!"
With a flash of green light, Xiao landed on the roof with his hands folded, and looked calmly at Gu Sanqiu who was waving at him.
"What is it?"
"Come down, Brother Xiao, let's have a meal together."
Everyone present had made great progress in their cultivation, and each of them had the Eye of God in their body, so they were naturally not afraid of the karma that had been suppressed more and more perfectly.
Moreover, this is the Gu family's territory, so the influence of karma can be said to be almost non-existent.
Although Brother Xiao occasionally eats with Philgodette and others at Wangshu Inn, it does not mean that ordinary people can withstand the erosion of karma.
After all, no one in Wangshu Inn is an ordinary person. The former bandits who are good at knife skills are all chefs of the inn, and their physical fitness cannot be classified as that of ordinary people.
Xiao's cold gaze swept across everyone and lingered on Qiqi, Guoba and Baizhu for a moment, making Gu Sanqiu secretly give a thumbs up to Brother Xiao in his heart.
Very good, his eyes didn’t even stay on the old man, he is worthy of being called Brother Xiao with a paralyzed face. If he plays board games, he will definitely be able to kill everyone!
Although it is true that using the Primordial Sword can also inflict great damage on everyone, it might be easier for Xiao.
Zhongli was not unaware of Xiao's arrival, but he did not stop him either.
He has been guarding Dihua Prefecture and the surrounding areas for so many years. He has been unable to communicate with others for a long time due to his karma. He himself doesn't believe that he doesn't feel sorry for his only subordinate.
Fortunately, Gu Sanqiu solved this problem, and Xiao did not show any overly special expressions to him, which was perfect.
Except for Qiqi who has a special physique, everyone present has a smart mind. Zhongli doesn't want to cause himself any unnecessary trouble.
"Great Sage, Great Sage who conquers demons, here, here!"
Chongyun waved at Xiao with shining eyes. With his family background and experience, Xiao was definitely a superstar in his heart, but he just didn't have many chances to meet him normally.
The idol is right in front of you, if not now, when?
Gu Sanqiu didn't care how they communicated with each other. Brother Xiao was a person who looked cold but was actually warm-hearted. Communication might be difficult but it wouldn't be a problem.
Gu Sanqiu returned to the kitchen and opened the refrigerator. A pig with slightly green skin was lying quietly inside.
Item: Tea Blood Pig
Quality: Purple
Source: Yumingjing
Overview: This special creature grows under the protection of the Holy Tea Tree. Its blood has the unique fragrance of tea flowing through it. It is an ingredient that requires great attention to the temperature and processing methods.
Note: When entertaining guests, some people often claim to eat a light diet but indulge in tea-blooded pork. This is really just deceiving themselves.
Gu Sanqiu habitually ignored the sarcastic remarks and looked at the overview.
Ingredients that require special attention to the heat and processing methods, which means that knife skills require very deep skills?
Gu Sanqiu poked his head out of the kitchen: "Guoba, Xiangling, come in and help!"
"Leilei!"
Guoba and Xiangling, who were still trying hard to jump, entered the kitchen. When they saw the ingredients on the table, their eyes lit up, and they felt quite happy to see the prey.
"Squad leader, how did you get such amazing ingredients again?"
Xiangling was so excited that she swung the kitchen knife loudly: "Tell me the channel, it will really help me improve my cooking skills!"
"Master Mao meant that you should go out more often and explore. He didn't mean that you should work harder on the quality of the ingredients. A good blacksmith must have good tools himself."
And this channel really can't be talked about casually.
Outside of the world, at least it is something that requires Ms. Alice's level to access.
After telling Xiangling the precautions, she instantly understood how to process the ingredients based on her vast experience, and started sharpening the knife after serving the rice crust.
Gu Sanqiu continued to take out food from the storage cabinet. This time it was a large fish with colorful scales but covered in a rich gray color overall.
Item: Guppy
Source: Endless Star Sea
Quality: Purple
Overview: An excellent ingredient for cultivation. Since it likes to indulge in the light it emits while absorbing the essence of the moon, it is relatively easy to capture.
Note: The old peacock spread his feathers out of self-love, and now he has lost his life.
"Strange notes, strange people."
Gu Sanqiu waved at Guoba: "Guoba, spit fire."
Marcius, the breath of the devil!
call--
Flames spread, Gu Sanqiu put the ingredients into the pot in order, and the guppies were placed in another pot to enjoy the treatment .
After stir-frying the ingredients, pouring in the thick tea-flavored oil that Xiangling made from pork, Gu Sanqiu carefully put the whole guppy in it.
Two slight rumbling sounds came from the kitchen, and two completely different but non-conflicting aromas came from the kitchen.
Then, Xiangling grabbed Guoba by the ears and pushed him out of the kitchen door, then calmly closed the door.
"lielie!"
Guoba was so anxious that he kept banging on the kitchen door with his short hands. He was probably caught on the spot by Xiangling when he was about to steal food.
Xiao and Zhongli simply glanced at their former friend indifferently without making any other comments.
Marcosius's intelligence has been greatly reduced and he has forgotten almost everything, but that doesn't mean that there will be no day when he will regain his memory.
Before that day comes, these old antiques who are still alive will reluctantly help him record these "happy" experiences.
"It's time to eat, everyone. Although it looks a bit monotonous, the taste is still guaranteed."
Gu Sanqiu used the rock element to create a multi-armed Dharma image and brought all the dishes to the new large table at once.
This was temporarily brought by Xingqiu's servants after he discovered that there were quite a lot of people. Although it could be divided into several tables, it did not have the joy of everyone eating together.
“It smells so good!”
Even Bai Shu, who was talking in a low voice with Zhongli, was a little surprised. Changsheng on his shoulder moved restlessly. This table of dishes was indeed very attractive.
"Home-cooked dishes, home-cooked dishes, everyone, please use your chopsticks, don't be shy."
As soon as these words were spoken, Xingqiu, representing the members of the Ten Gold Club, started moving instantly as if they had taken medicine, fully demonstrating the peak hand speed of a one-handed sword user and a perennial single person.
Guoba was not willing to be outdone. He kept patting Xiangling's back with his short hands, signaling his friend to quickly pick some food for him.
Hutao, Keqing and Xin Yan appear quiet on the surface, but their speed in picking up their chopsticks is no slower than that of the evil forces of the Ten Gold Society led by Xingqiu. They are on two sides that are "as hostile as water and fire".
But to be honest, Keqing and Shijinhui are indeed opposites in terms of composition.
Zhongli instantly betrayed the Hall of Rebirth, and followed the table etiquette with Ningguang, Yelan, Xiaoge and other "elders", and ate slowly.
Beidou, who had a bold personality, mixed with the young people. Everyone was competing to see how far their cheeks could expand. From time to time, they would laugh and raise their glasses to drink with everyone.
Compared with the above mentioned people, Bai Shu and Gu Sanqiu's painting styles are relatively consistent.
The former was taking care of Changsheng during the meal, while the latter was constantly picking up food for Qiqi. After all, there was a height limit, and showing a little head at the dining table was already the limit.
It was also because everyone sitting around them had some foundation and practice in martial arts, otherwise, with the strength and speed with which they picked up food, the chopsticks in their hands would have been broken from fighting each other.
“Delicious. The specially processed pork retains the blood, but it does not have the usual fishy smell. Instead, the fragrance of tea is integrated into the dish itself. After taking a bite, it feels like your body and mind are immersed in the tea garden, lying in the lingering fragrance of the tea trees and gazing at the blue sky.”
Easy ingredients.
Zhongli commented that, given his status, things from outside the world were not rare, but it was indeed rare to be able to use them to make dishes. Moreover, being able to have a simple and warm meal with everyone was also a rare experience.
"Mr. Zhongli is right, but I prefer fish soup."
Ningguang chuckled, "It looks pure white, flawless, and extremely simple, but once you take a sip, you'll be able to detect the subtle ingenuity hidden within. It's like a chain of delicious food stacked like a pagoda, solid yet colorful."
"Hahaha, you intellectuals just use a lot of sour words."
Beidou laughed and clinked glasses with Gu Sanqiu: "For me, delicious is enough, just two words, hahaha!"
Gu Sanqiu smiled and toasted happily, then patted Qiqi's head lightly, took out a camera and stepped back a few steps.
"Okay everyone, look at the camera--"
Hutao who was pulling Keqing and making faces, the adult team with calm or smiling faces, the noisy and energetic little friends, Guoba who was standing up and preparing to use his secret skill of stealing vegetables when no one was paying attention, and the little loli Qiqi who greeted in advance so she could keep up with the pace.
Click——
Gu Sanqiu pressed the shutter and smiled with satisfaction at everyone in the photo.
"Yes, this is the best life."
