Transmigration with Cheat Codes - Chapter 99
[100. Chapter 100]
The old concierge squinted his eyes and muttered a few words in a low voice. The man next to him sighed helplessly. He didn’t see how to get up to cheer up, and flipped out of the wall with a light somersault. In a moment, he came back with a bottle of freshly brewed wine.
The disciples of Lewu Villa who came with Meng Jintang have already seen that this man is not only as fast as riding the wind, but also as light as a feather. He is an amazing light kung fu master.
——Why is such an expert here being driven by the concierge to run errands and fetch drinks for the old man?
Meng Jintang dismounted. When the old porter saw the visitor, who was dressed in green clothes and a curtain hat, his expression suddenly became surprised and happy. He quickly came over to greet him: “So it’s you who are back!” He urged the people next to him, “Brother Shang.” , go inside and let me know.”
Feng Shang, who had changed from “Feng Da Xia” to “Brother Shang”, stood up again, expressionless: “…Hey, I’ll go right away.”
——Others looked at the attitude of the old gatekeeper and felt that the King of Yezhou was highly respected by his subordinates. However, the locals knew that even the gatekeepers had the chance to meet the leader of the Hanshan Sect. After all, it was extremely rare. Meng Jintang’s past habit was not necessarily to follow the regular route when entering and exiting. Thanks to the mediocre martial arts of the guards, they did not cause any obstacles to her way home…
In the depth of winter, the sycamore trees in the courtyard have long lost their leaves, and at this moment, someone is sweeping the floor.
The man’s posture was as tall and straight as a bamboo, his eyes fell on the ground just a few inches in front of him, and the broom in his hand moved slowly, bringing the snow on the ground up, like wisps of flowing clouds, and it suddenly became clear and clear in an instant. Come out to a large open space.
Pei Xiangzhou’s eyes fell on the other person’s figure and steps – this person looked more like he was practicing sword practice than sweeping the floor.
The broom is his sword, and the heavy snow in the sky is his opponent.
Others did not have Pei Xiangzhou’s level of vision, but even at a cursory glance, they all felt that this young man had a relaxed attitude, which was refreshing to watch.
Meng Jintang glanced at it and nodded secretly – Xu Zaiyu did not stick to the martial arts moves she taught, but combined the “Baiyun Sword”, “Leaf Sweeping Stick Technique” and “Door Chamber Sword Technique” into this sweeping and complex martial arts technique. In one sweep.
Before everyone stepped onto the verandah, Gao Bingxian had already heard the sound and arrived. She was walking in a hurry. Although there was a hint of eagerness in her eyes, her behavior was still as light and calm as catkins.
Pei Xiangzhou suddenly realized that Gao Bingxian’s movements were somewhat similar to those of the boy who swept the floor before.
He thought about it and felt that he roughly understood the style of Hanshan School martial arts.
Gao Bingxian had a spring-like smile on his face – there are specializations in the art industry, and if hospitality is also regarded as a life skill, then Meng Jintang’s proficiency is only at the elementary level, and she is at least at the advanced level.
No matter whether the guest’s martial arts status was high or low, Gao Bingxian greeted everyone in turn, his words were full of kindness and gentleness, and while laughing and joking, he slowly led everyone to sit down in the garden.
The pavilion in the garden is surrounded by silver gauze, which contrasts with the boundless snow. The fire pit has been lit in the pavilion, and it is as warm as spring. Pei Xiangzhou and the two are disciples of Jinghua Temple. Although they are from a well-known and upright family, they are in trouble in life. He didn’t pay much attention to the details. Looking at the layout here, he felt a little luxurious, but then he thought about it. Meng Jintang himself was as pale as frost and had a cough. Gao Bingxian designed it this way. In addition to entertaining guests, he was probably thinking about it. The king of Yezhou couldn’t stand the cold.
…No wonder Meng Jintang is so skilled in Kung Fu, but he has never appeared outside of Yezhou until this year. It is probably because of his weak constitution and his inability to travel long distances.
In terms of status in the martial arts world, Meng Jintang is naturally the highest among everyone, but she is a local master, so she invited Pei Xiangzhou to be the chief. After everyone chatted a few gossips about the world, they saw a woman in her thirties serving dishes. Serve.
This woman had knife-shaped eyebrows, fair complexion, and a faint scar on her little finger. Although the dishes on the plate were heavy, they were as light as thin paper when she held them up.
A sharp-eyed person has retrieved the other party’s true identity from the database in his mind. This woman dressed as a cook is the famous “Rose Knife” in the past. She disappeared a few years ago, but now she is unexpectedly… Reappeared in the palace of King Yezhou.
——Actually, like the blacksmith and the pickled aunt, “Rose Knife” is not a local talent reserve in Yezhou, but a foreign aid that Meng Jintang picked up during his mission.
Many people in the world are shocked – how many masters are there in this place? With the ability of “Rose Knife”, can he only work in the kitchen?
Meng Jintang didn’t know what the other party was thinking, and she couldn’t explain the misunderstanding between the two parties due to the information gap. It wasn’t that her brain was so smart that she had to let a master of martial arts work in the kitchen, but that when they first met, this person just asked someone to work in the kitchen. “Rose Knife”, who moved to a small town to live in seclusion, has put down the machete, picked up the kitchen knife, and devoted himself to the cooking industry with enthusiasm. And unlike the blacksmith and the aunt who pickled sauerkraut, the reason why “Rose Knife” came here was just because of the two sides. After exchanging snacks, the girl admired the craftsmanship of a disciple of the Hanshan Sect after one taste. She asked the disguised Meng Jintang for a letter of recommendation on the spot, and moved all the way here, intending to change the environment to further her studies.
Some people were looking at the cook, and some were looking at the tableware – the utensils on the table were mainly silverware and porcelain. The porcelain was exquisite, and the silverware was made with excellent craftsmanship, with pure color and delicate texture. Those who know the goods will find that the craftsmanship of these silverwares has a bit of Jianghu style. They should be the handiwork of people who are good at forging swords. If nothing unexpected happens, they are definitely masters in this field.
Meng Jintang was completely unaware of this – unlike some people who knew the goods, her [casting] skills had never been picked up since she dropped them, so she didn’t notice anything special about the tableware at all.
Of course, guests don’t have to regret that “a man who is good at forging swords can only make plates for the King of Yezhou”. After all, this person’s skills are quite suitable for making metal tableware. The real hard work of the casting master This work is actually a pickled cabbage jar that has nothing to do with casting…
The cook first served a dish of snow lotus root, a plate of spinach stir-fried with soy sauce tofu, a bowl of vegetarian roast goose, a plate of magnolia slices, a plate of preserved plum blossoms made of chestnuts and olives, a large bowl of Luohan tofu, and a bowl of plum porridge. .
The reason why the previous dishes are mainly based on ingredients is because Pei Xiangzhou was born in Jinghua Temple and prefers light food.
Of course, people in the world also know that not all disciples in Jinghua Temple are monks, especially some children, who will not consider the issue of tonsure until they grow up. A senior member of Jinghua Temple once said that young people are growing up, so there is no need to completely eliminate meat and fish. However, Pei Xiangzhou was influenced by the custom of the sect, and his daily meals were mainly vegetarian.
Snow lotus root is not a thing in this season, but it tastes so fresh, which is rare. The plum porridge is made from red plums. The ingredients are simple, just white rice, rock sugar and plum petals. The only difficulty is that the petals are too low. If it is done early, it will definitely lose its color due to the high temperature. If it is done too late, the plum fragrance will not be able to penetrate into the porridge. However, the “rose knife” used in cooking is a person from the Jianghu, who is thoughtful and thinks that he can use the yin inner energy to wrap the plum petals. Simmer over low heat to achieve full color and aroma.
Trying to praise the host’s hospitality at the dinner table is a default unspoken rule for many diners. Thanks to the fact that the food in Yongji Waiyuan is really good, it provides a lot of material for their praise.
Meng Jintang consumed too much along the way, so she ate a little lazily. She only drank some porridge. She tasted the pickled radish and was a little surprised – today’s side dishes were very delicious, and she must have been made by the aunt.
I noticed that Meng Jintang seemed to have a preference for side dishes, and many guests who were originally not interested also took some.
As soon as they tasted it, they immediately understood what King Yezhou felt just now – not only was this plate of pickled radish extremely refreshing and crispy, but if they looked closely, the veins in the radish were not coherent, but had been shocked by someone’s unique palm power. It is broken, but there is no trace on the surface, so it has such a special taste.
This kind of palm power is not like that of “Rose Knife”, so there must be someone else in the kitchen who is skilled.
Some guests bit the pickled radish silently, feeling that this must be a warning from the King of Yezhou – if the archives had ulterior motives, then the pickled radish today must be their tomorrow.
At the same table, someone is eating, someone is watching the leader eat, someone is eating thrillingly, and someone is thinking about the direction of life while eating.
“Dingzhang” and “Shangzhen” looked at each other, then looked at “Rose Knife” dressed as a cook, and for a moment they felt like they had some realization.
They can guess why “Rose Knife” was young and young, and made fundamental career adjustments when his future was promising – young people are old in the world, and many people in the world have poured their lives and blood into this world. In the martial arts world, he was full of heroism when he was young. When he got older, whether he was worried about his children or tired of fighting in the world, he chose to quietly retire.
The two of them had received Meng Jintang’s life-saving grace, and they didn’t know how to repay the favor. After seeing this scene, they suddenly wanted to stay here.
“Dingzhang” originally hesitated when he learned Meng Jintang’s identity. The reason for his delay in making up his mind was that he did not want to get involved in the world again, but judging from the fact that “Rose Knife” can still choose to concentrate on cooking, the King of Yezhou himself In addition to being rumored to be ruthless, he also has a kind side.
The grandsons and granddaughters of “Dingzhang” and “Shangzhen” also want their elders to stay. They are still young and full of ambitions. Even if they have suffered setbacks, they still have unlimited yearning for the world.
Meng Jintang had been ill for a long time, Pei Xiangzhou was injured, and many of the others also suffered some injuries on the way. Without much chatting, they were assigned their respective accommodations after the meal.
Gao Bingxian had been sitting next to Meng Jintang. When he saw the man stand up, his gentle and kind face suddenly became a little nervous. He quickly stretched out his hand to support him: “Be careful.”
“…”
Seeing how cautious Gao Zhangyuan was, others thought that this girl had probably never seen the heroic figure of her family leader when he was “doing a little work” outside.
If the temperature in the pavilion is just “like spring”, then Meng Jintang’s room has been very specifically raised to the level of “like summer”. Even people who have never learned martial arts will probably feel the same if they come in and stay for a while. He was sweating profusely, but Gao Bingxian still felt so cold when he held Meng Jintang’s hand.
Gao Bingxian said with concern: “The master’s face seems not to be good.”
Meng Jintang couldn’t help but smile: “When will my face get better?”[End of this Chapter.]
