When xuanqizi saw Gu Zheng, Gu Zheng still sat in the room to practice. In fact, Gu Zheng was not practicing. He just pretended to wait for xuanqizi to come.
He was also a green Taoist robe, with white hair and beard, and a kind smile on his face. This is the second time that Gu Zheng saw xuanqizi. The first time was the virtual shadow that crippled the blood feather sparrow with one palm in the ruins of Shu.
"I've seen the supreme elder!"
Gu Zheng quickly got up and saluted.
Xuanqizi smiled and motioned Gu Zheng to sit down.
"Yes, you are lucky to be taught by a strange person at a young age. You are not afraid of difficulties in the Shu ruins. You took the task of chasing and killing the blood soul and successfully killed the blood soul. This is very good and gratifying. There are still good disciples who can shoulder the heavy burden in our Shu mountain line!" xuanqizi said.
"Thank the elder for his praise. Since ancient times, good and evil do not coexist, let alone deal with the devil of blood soul! In that case, it is incumbent on the disciple to take over the task!" Gu Zheng said seriously.
Xuanqizi nodded and then said, "I won't mention any more about the unpleasant things that have happened. I promise you what you want. I hope you don't take some things too seriously. You have to forgive others. Anyway, Emei comes from Shushan."
"I thank the superior elder, and please don't worry. I'm not so stingy." Gu Zheng said solemnly.
"Very good."
Xuanqizi lovingly patted Gu Zheng on the shoulder: "Now let's get down to business! From today on, you only plan to stay in Shushan for five days. After the third day, you start to help Shushan do food repair. However, from what danyangzi told me, there is only one food repair you need to do here, so it's only one day at most. If you want to return to Emei, you can go back in advance."
Xuanqizi didn't say that he learned from Han Songzi. He also wanted to give Gu Zheng a feeling that Han Songzi had been punished. As for taking the initiative to shorten the time of food repair, he also wanted to give Gu Zheng a sense of security from being hijacked.
Gu Zheng nodded, "it really only takes one day. Wind speed food repair, ice spirit food repair, iron armor food repair, fire spirit food repair and grass food repair are useless now. After all, they can not be stored for a long time like Xiandan. If these kinds of food repair are needed in the future, the supreme elder just sends someone to find me in the outside world with food materials, and I will help Shushan do it.".
"OK."
Xuanqizi smiled. Before he asked again, Gu Zheng took the initiative to speak.
Several methods of food cultivation that can keep * * * and white cats in Shushan are useful to immortals, but I'm not an immortalist now, so I can't help Shushan do it. Shushan can only wait first! "
"However, in the conversation with my master, he told me that among the several methods of food cultivation, one is called 'immortal fruit food cultivation', which will have a very good effect. If the supreme elder is interested in this method of food cultivation, immortal fruit resources remember to leave some for this method of food cultivation."
Among the "fabrications" of the ancient debate, there are several food cultivation methods suitable for immortals. His master just mentioned them to him, saying that when he reached the realm of immortals, he would tell him how to do these food cultivation methods. In general, there is a list of ingredients made up by ancient people, but these kinds of food practices suitable for practitioners do not even have a name. After all, Gu Zheng doesn't know what kind of food and cultivation suitable for immortals will be obtained in the future. The lies he tells must be able to live roundly.
"This is natural."
Xuanqizi nodded, and Gu Zheng spoke again: "then there is only one kind of Zengyuan food repair to be done in three days."
Zeng yuan, Shi xiugu, fought in Emei and improved the strength of Emei disciples. The Zengyuan food cultivation "woven" by Gu Zheng is useful not only for Shu mountain disciples, but also for immortal practitioners.
"I'm looking forward to your Zengyuan food repair! When there was a fairy kitchen, I couldn't taste any food he cooked!" xuanqizi sighed.
"Shixiu is different from food. I'm sure the food is delicious, but Shixiu may not." Gu Zheng smiled.
"I know that."
Xuanqizi nodded, and then the conversation turned: "I have a question. Your grass can really cure the passage of pure Yin Qi?"
"No, I used an 'exorcism elixir' to treat Luo Xiao."
Gu Zheng used xianludan to cure Luo Xiao, but xianludan is a Xiandan, which is also something that can't be exposed. Therefore, in his "fabricated" facts, he used a very rare "exorcism elixir" specifically for some difficult and miscellaneous diseases. Xuanqizi must know this story, but he knows it clearly. There must be a purpose.
"You have slaughtered many resources of Lingjian sect!" xuanqizi said with a smile.
"Who made them so bad!" Gu Zheng scratched his head and smiled.
He didn't say much about the slaughter of Lingjian sect. Xuanqizi said, "if you help Shushan do food repair, won't you also kill Shushan?"
Sure enough, xuanqizi's purpose was shown. He led to the question of whether he would be slaughtered through the event of healing Luoxiao.
"No!"
The voice of the zither was very positive, and then asked, "elder Tai, do you already know my rules for food practice?"
To expose the method of food cultivation, Gu Zheng not only wanted to protect himself, but also wanted to make a fortune! He "made up" a list of ingredients for the method of food cultivation, that is, how many main materials and auxiliary materials are needed, so that he can fundamentally take advantage of some advantages. Even if he can't take advantage this time, he must take advantage next time and next time.
"Yes, your master has set a rule. Every time you do food repair for people, you have to charge certain resources as a fee. In addition, no one is allowed to watch when doing food repair. If you break this rule, your master will take back everything he gives you."
Xuanqizi said in a loud voice and seemed to have made a decision: "as the saying goes, 'it's hard for a teacher to do anything'. It's understandable that you want to abide by the rules set by your teacher. Just in terms of charging fees, I hope you can give a good discount because Emei comes from Shushan."
"Don't worry, supreme elder. My human nature is not bad. If it is bad, I won't send Luo Xiao back for treatment, or expose grass and fire spirit in the underground cave."
"Now that I've been exposed, I have a plan to share these things with Shushan. After all, I always think that Emei comes from Shushan and is connected with Shushan even if it breaks a bone! However, I also understand the truth that every man is innocent and cherishes his sin. Naturally, there are things I worry and fear affecting me, so I'm not sure when it's more suitable to say it 。”
"Moreover, the supreme elder is so polite to the younger generation. How can the younger generation kill Shushan without respect?"
"The original rule set by the master was to charge more than 20% of the materials used in each food repair as a fee. The rule was set by the master, but there was a loophole to drill. After all, the master didn't say yes, he just said a suggestion!"
"I promise the elder here that I will help Shushan do food repair. I only need 5% of the materials used as the cost, which will never change!"
Gu Zheng patted his chest and was full of righteousness, but who knows that he made 5% of the cost. At the same time, the ingredient list falsely reported twice to three times the materials required for each food repair!
It's because of the effect of the method of food cultivation. Some pills can also play the same role. It's too high. People might as well refine pills.
However, some of the food repair methods with more eccentric effects almost have no pills with similar effects, such as wind speed food repair and iron armor food repair. The ingredient list of this food repair naturally has a high degree of fraud in ancient times.
"Good!"
Xuanqizi praised Gu Zheng, and his eyes were full of joy. Originally, he thought that it was normal for Gu Zheng to reduce by 5%, and it was a surprise to reduce by 10%, but now the 15% is undoubtedly a big surprise!
"In addition, to show my sincerity, I will make an exception this time to let the supreme elder watch the process of my food repair, and also let the supreme elder witness. I don't have the materials of heishu mountain, what I should do! However, when I do food repair in the future, I can't make an exception to let people watch. After all, disobeying the master's orders will not only condemn my conscience, but also make me feel guilty I'm worried about the consequences if my master knows! "
If Gu Zheng wants the materials of black Shushan, he has to convince Shushan that he won't be black! Although the ingredients list has been "woven", Shushan still has some worries about handing over a lot of materials to one person and letting him handle them safely. In such a worried state in the long run, I'm not sure what will happen one day.
When making food repair to xuanqizi, Gu Zheng is to win the trust of the other party, so as to eliminate his worries. Under such a premise, Gu used the ingredients in the ingredient list and made food repair in front of him. Naturally, he should no longer worry about being slaughtered. After all, he has seen how many ingredients Gu Zheng uses and made a food repair, so he doesn't have to be afraid. When Gu Zheng makes this food repair next time, there will be too suspicious changes in materials.
"Gu Zheng, this, this is not very good?"
Rao is an old and refined xuanqizi, but on the premise that he has believed in "making up" facts, he is also moved by Gu Zheng's honesty and his words are unnatural! After all, Gu Zheng's practice of showing sincerity requires a lot of risks.
What's more, xuanqizi was influenced by "making up" stories. Although he wanted to see the ancient struggle for food cultivation, he knew that it was too hard for people to do, and he had already given up in his heart. Now Gu Zheng takes the initiative to say it, which really makes him surprised and happy!
"Nothing bad!" Gu Zheng said seriously.
"Well, in that case, I xuanqizi promise you that you have done food repair in front of outsiders and will never be leaked!"
Xuanqizi said solemnly, and then said sincerely, "xiaozhengzi, you must know that a sect is not so easy to manage. Sometimes if you can block the mouth of the disciple, it will be a lot less trouble."
From the initial title of "you", to the name of Gu Zheng who was moved, and then to the title of relatives who are moved now, the weight of Gu Zheng in xuanqizi's eyes and xuanqizi's attitude towards him are constantly rising with the change of name!
Fortunately, xuanqizi was moved and didn't call guzheng why "Zhengzheng", "Xiaozheng" and "Zhenger". Otherwise, guzheng would surely have goose bumps on the ground.
Looking at xuanqizi as if looking at the younger generation, Gu Zheng nodded: "if the supreme elder has any requirements, just put them forward!"
"Xiaozhengzi, if you believe me and you do the food practice three days later, let some of our supreme elders watch it together. Anyway, you let me watch it, and I also want to tell them that I saw you do the food practice face to face. Although there are many people watching, my commitment to you is still valid! And, in addition to the Zengyuan food practice, there are five other food practices you do three days later , I need to let all the other supreme elders except me believe you through this matter! "
Xuanqizi said it sincerely, and his so-called request was also right for Gu Zheng.
Gu Zheng thought for a moment: "it's still that sentence. I believe in the supreme elder, just do as the supreme elder said!"
"Very good."
Xuanqizi looked at Gu Zheng with satisfaction and took out two small boxes: "you take these two pills, which can also be regarded as my elder. I'll give you a little gift for the younger generation!"
After Gu Zheng took the box and thanked him, he chatted with xuanqizi again, and xuanqizi got up and left.
Xuanqizi gave guzheng two elixirs, one of which was the "magic elixir for expelling evil" fabricated by guzheng, and the other was the advanced healing elixir "Shengyuan golden elixir".
Although Shengyuan golden elixir is not a fairy elixir, its role in healing is not much worse than that of fairy elixir. At least it has the effect of regenerating people's severed limbs. This alone is very powerful. After all, even if it is a medium-grade grass, it can't do this.
After xuanqizi left, Gu Zheng breathed a sigh in his heart.
As far as Yu guzheng is concerned, the crisis in Shushan is as dangerous as killing blood souls in caves!
Killing blood souls is a death crisis. The crisis encountered in Shushan may die or be imprisoned for life! If there were no spirit to contribute the "spiritual pill" she cherished, the consequences of the crisis would be unimaginable!
Moreover, the death crisis of killing blood souls did not last long, and the torture of fear was short. However, the crisis in Shushan began when he was informed to go to the hall. It was not really over until he had just finished his conversation with xuanqizi! During this period of time, Gu Zheng's heart is almost always tight. Even if it is "fabricated", no matter how perfect it is, it will still worry about the occurrence of variables!
Death or imprisonment is not terrible. What is terrible is the suffering and uncontrollable analysis during the period of waiting for the unknown. This is the most painful thing!
"The Shu mountain crisis is over. Although this process is very painful, it is undeniable that it is also a rare experience for the state of mind. In fact, you should be proud. Who can turn the immortals around like you in today's state? Even there is the state of turning gods back to emptiness!"
The sound of the spirit sounded in Gu Zheng's mind.
"Thank you for the Lingnian pill, otherwise the crisis will be unimaginable. However, although the crisis in Shushan is over, there is another trouble waiting!" Gu Zheng frowned.
"What's the other trouble? Is it the food repair for Shushan?" Qi Ling asked.
"No, I have done all these kinds of food repairs. After the tiexian formula entered the three-tier realm, I can feel a small amount of those things in the food materials. In addition, my understanding of the food materials and the food repairs I made for them are the lowest level, the quality of the food materials used is sufficient and the quantity is also large. Therefore, even if I don't use Xianli, I can still make inferior food repairs."
Gu Zheng's voice was very confident, but Qi Ling didn't refute it. After all, what he said was the truth.
Gu Zheng has been growing, and so has his cooking. Even if he doesn't use fairies such as fire control and water control, he can still make delicious food! The more important reasons are the accumulation of experience, the improvement of cultivation, and the understanding of food materials.
"In fact, you know what I said about the crisis. The good thing about Shushan this time is that it didn't 'introduce' those disciples of Emei sect, otherwise the Chaos Tower would be exposed, and it would be troublesome to deal with it!"
"There are too many Emei disciples who benefit from Chaos Tower. I can't 'weave' them one by one. After all, they still have to continue to benefit from Chaos Tower. But since I want Shushan to trust me so as to avoid some trouble, I must tell Shushan about Chaos Tower as soon as possible."
"However, telling Shushan is not completely revealed. It also needs to be 'fabricated' and let them provide me with cultivation resources. As for how to do this, I still need to ask a corner and have a deep understanding of the information of Chaos Tower."
Jiao Jiao can actually stay in Gu Zheng's mind, but after all, it's tired enough to take one child. Gu Zheng doesn't want to take two. What's more, when the chaotic tower was opened, it still needed the maintenance of the angle, so Gu Zheng let the angle continue to stay in the chaotic tower a long time ago.
"Gu Zheng, to tell you the truth, you have so many minds! When I gave you Lingnian pill, I just thought it was suitable for you. You can 'weave' a story about Luo Xiao you don't like, and you can transform the memory of Chu Xiaochen who has seen your secret."
"As for saying that you will take the opportunity to solve the distrust crisis of Shushan, although I thought about it, I just thought about it. Unexpectedly, you not only considered it carefully, but also took the opportunity to make Shushan sect your resource provider. You did a good job! Now I am more and more optimistic about you!" Qi Ling smiled happily.
"I have so many minds? Are you praising me or hurting me?" Gu Zheng said silently.
"I want to go."
The instrument spirit laughed and stopped talking.
Gu Zheng didn't say anything. Sitting cross legged, he enjoyed the hard calm after the storm.
Anyway, it's a good thing to have gained the trust of Shushan now! Even if Gu Zheng left a small tail somewhere else, as long as he was given a little time away from the eyes of these people in Shushan, he had a way to solve the small tail.
In the afternoon, people from Shushan sect came to inform Gu Zheng early and asked him to prepare dinner.
The venue for the dinner is the banquet living room of Shushan sect, and the place Gu Zheng wants to go is naturally the kitchen of Shushan sect.
Not all the dishes of this dinner need to be cooked by Gu Zheng. After all, there are many people attending the dinner. If Gu Zheng is allowed to do it alone, it will definitely be busy. Therefore, the original cooks in Shushan would cook some dishes dotted with green leaves, and the real bright red flowers need to be completed by Gu Zheng.
When Gu Zheng entered the kitchen, the cooks in Shushan were already making preparations. They should choose the dishes and cut the dishes.
"Leader Gu, this is the list of dishes for this dinner. You see what kind of dishes you want to cook and how much you want to cook. I'll ask someone to give you a hand."
Deacon Hu in charge of the kitchen handed the list of dishes to Gu Zheng.
"There are too many people attending the dinner. There are 30 tables in total, and too much is done. Even if there is a heat preservation method, the taste of the dishes will be affected when they are served for too long. Well, I only make one dish and one soup for each table! As for the ingredients I need, they are..."
Gu Zheng pointed his finger at the ingredients he needed, and Deacon Hu remembered them one by one, and immediately asked people to prepare them.
"Ancient leader, look at these things you ordered. The soup you made should be 'mushroom soup', and the dish you want to make should be 'fried meat with sour bamboo shoots'."
When Gu Zheng checked the list of ingredients, he was accompanied by two Shu mountain cooks besides deacon Hu. At this time, the speaker was one of the two. He was chubby and looked like a cook.
"Ancient leader, his name is Chen San. He is one of the two chefs in our Shushan kitchen."
Deacon Hu stretched out his finger to the chubby Chen San, and then pointed to another tall and thin Cook: "his name is Shi Chui. He is another chef in our Shushan kitchen."
After listening to the introduction of Deacon Hu, Gu Zheng smiled at Chen San: "Chen Chu has good eyesight!"
"Ancient leader, I heard you cook very well. We have been cooks for most of our lives. I wonder if we can compete with ancient leader today?" the tall stone cook also spoke.
The kitchen in Shushan has always been the territory of Shicai and Chen San. They are both cooks and practitioners, but their cultivation level is the later stage of the third floor. The two of them have held numerous banquets in Shushan mountain, but today's closing banquet in Shu ruins has killed an ancient dispute, which makes them feel a little uncomfortable.
Gu Zheng is a leader. No matter how well others say he cooks, Chen Sanhe and Shi Chui don't pay attention. They feel that they are not as good as the ancient dispute in terms of cultivation, but they must be above the ancient dispute in terms of cooking!
"Shicai, what are you talking about?"
Deacon Hu glared at Shi CAI. In fact, he didn't believe how good Gu Zheng's cooking was, but he couldn't let Shi Cai challenge Gu Zheng! After all, Gu Zheng is a chef appointed by the leader. If he loses the competition with Shi Chui, it's not just Gu Zheng's face.
"Deacon Hu, it doesn't hurt!"
Gu Zheng smiled. Shi Chui's enhanced competitiveness also made him itchy.
"Ancient leader, isn't that right?" deacon Hu asked.
"There's nothing wrong. If leader Qin blames him, I'll explain it to him."
Gu Zheng said so, and Deacon Hu could only reluctantly agree. Chen San, who had been waiting for deacon Hu's promise for a long time, immediately said happily, "ancient leader, I'm also included in the competition?"
Gu Zheng nodded and said, "yes, how do you say to compete?"
"Looking at the ancient leader's choice of materials, you don't use auxiliary things at all, such as spices such as onion, ginger and garlic. Then you should want to highlight the taste of the ingredients themselves. It's undeniable that it will be more difficult to make a dish in this way, but since the ancient leader has chosen so, he must be very confident in his own cooking."
"I don't hide what the ancient leader said. I'm not good at this vegetarian method. What I'm good at requires some spices that the ancient leader doesn't use, which are all those in the list of ingredients."
"As for how to compete, I want to use the same ingredients as the ancient leader to make the same dishes as the ancient leader! However, I will use some spices and other aids. Can we compare the taste of Qingsu with that of 'mushroom soup'?"
Shi Chui's voice fell to the ground. Gu Zheng nodded his consent, and Chen San immediately opened his mouth.
"My idea is the same as that of Shi Chu. Since he chose 'mushroom soup', I'll choose 'fried meat with sour bamboo shoots'! However, there are two kinds of ingredients ordered by the ancient leader, which can also be regarded as excipients. I don't need these two kinds of excipients. I use the excipients I think are better."
Gu Zheng smiled: "yes, let's get ready and start!"
It's not known how Chen San and Shi Chui cook. But he didn't intend to use Xianli to cook for Shushan today. He also wants to see how well he can cook without the help of Xianli.
Originally, this idea did not take into account the competition proposed by others, but now some people have a competition. The equally victorious ancient dispute still decided to stick to the original plan and not use immortal power! He wanted to compete with them based on his understanding of food materials and the advantages brought by tiexian formula.
"Gu Zheng, is your decision a little too important? People are also cultivators. If you don't use magic, you'll let them go, but you don't even need immortal power. After all, they can use internal power to control the heat and even process the ingredients." Qi Ling said.
"In a dish, ingredients account for four points, cooking for four points and Cultivation for two points."
"There is no difference in the grade of ingredients we use. The only difference is that they will use more excipients. Which is better, plain and conventional, depends on which one the tasters prefer, so we share the advantages and disadvantages equally."
"In terms of cooking skills, they have been cooks for decades and have a deep understanding of food materials. But I am the descendant of tiexian. The tiexian formula I practiced was created by Lord tiexian, which is also full of understanding of food materials. And Lord tiexian's understanding of food materials, I say he is the first person in the world. You absolutely agree! So I have an advantage in this point. And, for example If you only say 'sauteed meat with sour bamboo shoots', I'm sure my understanding of the ingredients can get rid of Chen Sanyi street. "
"In terms of cultivation, they use internal strength instead of magic, which makes the gap not irreparable. After all, internal strength is not as good as magic in the processing of heat and even food materials. Although I don't use internal strength, as long as I understand enough food materials, it's just a little trouble. I can achieve the effect by controlling heat or processing food materials in a stupid way The fruit may be worse than theirs, but it won't be much worse. "
"In addition, although I don't use internal strength, I practice tiexian Jue, and I have reached three levels. I can feel the trace substances in food. Before, with the cooperation of magic, it was easier to deal with the trace substances. Now, although I don't use magic, I can still use stupid methods to remove the trace substances that can affect the taste."
"Gu Zheng, I'll cut in."
The spirit of the instrument interrupted the analysis of the ancient dispute: "You can feel that trace substances are true, but the treatment of trace substances can only be regarded as icing on the cake and is a more extreme operation! But what about taste? Unless you know how to taste, ordinary people can't taste it. Therefore, this can't be regarded as your advantage! Moreover, it's just your analysis. Maybe people have some powerful means Maybe. You shouldn't let them too much. You'll lose the competition! If you lose the competition, you'll beat Qin Haotian in the face and lose your face. "
The words of instrument spirit made Gu Zheng frown slightly, but he was more and more full of fighting spirit.
"I want to win, but I don't want to lose, so I will be very careful. But if I lose, I won't be too sorry! After all, I didn't intend to use fairy power and magic, so I was taking it as a challenge to myself. These two grindstones jumped out, which were purely unexpected."
"In addition, you can rest assured. Even if I lose, it won't hurt Qin Haotian's face! Deacon Hu doesn't eat dry food. What's harmful to Qin Haotian's image, do you think he will let it spread? What's more, even if it spread, Qin Haotian won't be ashamed. After all, I don't use my internal strength, which also gives him room to maneuver."
Gu Zheng seemed very confident, and his confident appearance not only didn't make Qi Ling angry, but made Qi Ling laugh: "look at your confident appearance, it makes me feel strange. I say I feel happy? But why do you want to give you a fairy vine?"
"You are so abnormal!" Gu Zheng rolled his eyes.
"Ha ha!" didn't care about the disrespect of the ancient dispute, the instrument spirit then said: "confident ancient dispute, aren't you afraid that people don't use internal strength to show their demeanor when they see you?"
"Don't worry, they won't. If they compete with each other through the same dishes, I should be a vegetarian, and they should also be a vegetarian. After all, they put forward the competition, and this is their home. Naturally, the reason why they can develop their strengths and avoid their weaknesses is that they see the results more important, so they won't put their advantages instead of using them. Anyway, for them, winning is better, even if they win It's a loss, and it's also a loss in the hands of the person appointed by the leader. It's not humiliating at all. "
Gu Zhengsheng said, "I don't want to talk to you. I'm going to start making preparations."
Although talking to Qi Ling doesn't delay the work at hand, Qi Ling doesn't know how to talk today, which makes Gu Zheng feel a little talkative. What's more, she just wanted to smoke Gu Zheng! This makes Gu Zheng feel that it's better to stay away from this windy spirit today.
All the ingredients needed have been cleaned by the kitchen helper. The spring water from Shushan mountain is used. There is no problem with the water quality.
Gu Zheng first started to make "mushroom soup". Gu Zheng ordered eight kinds of main ingredients for this dish. They are: chicken fir, goose egg fungus, pearl fungus, legume fungus, Agaricus blazei, white Luo fungus, pine fungus and Tianli fungus. The ingredients of these eight fungi are all ordinary.
In addition to these main materials, the only things that will be used in guzheng are ordinary salt and medium-level earth vein spring water. Of course, these things are all provided by Shushan. After all, the closing dinner of Shu ruins is a grand event, and Shushan doesn't care about these difficult ingredients.
