Chapter 646 [Realm of Utility] Third Update
PS: There is another update today, and I will write it after watching the AFC Champions League final, maybe it will be later, haha. Evergrande must win!
Time passed minute by minute, all the old Daoists in the Lingxu Pavilion were anxiously waiting, the old immortal Weng Shidongtian turned around, anxiously like a big horse monkey, muttering to himself: "Enlightenment soup? interesting, really interesting, gluttonous, I said white-haired, you brought your mobile phone, see how long it has been?"
These miscellaneous hairs are all old antiques, and they rarely wear watches and mobile phones, especially this time in the name of the seven sons of Taoism, they came to the 'Wangqi Courtyard' to gather the spirit for Zhou Yi Naji and open up the dragon's lair, but also to maintain the image of a professional.
The white-haired gentleman has been exclaimed by several young women in the main family since he went out to do something, "Wow, this person has white hair so cool, like a movie star in Xiangjiang", and has fallen in love with the trend since then, although he is too different because of his age, he is too different, and the trend of mobile phones never leaves his body, and the people still use Apple 4s.
"Forty minutes"
"It's been so long, why haven't you done it yet?" Shi Dongtian wanted to turn around in a hurry, but he was still held down by Yu Xuzi: "Immortal Weng, don't you turn around, okay, I look dizzy." ”
"Hehe, I've kept you waiting. ”
A faint voice came, and bursts of clouds and mist rolled up on the stone beam connected to the 'Wangqi Yuntai', and a figure was walking quickly, the words had not yet dissipated, and the person had already arrived in front of him, it was Zhou Yi who was smiling.
All the miscellaneous hairs raised their eyes and gasped, Zhou Yi was holding a large porcelain bowl with a diameter of half a meter and a depth of half a foot in his hand, regardless of how much food should be filled in this bowl. The delicate texture of the tire and the picture of the bowl noodles alone are enough to attract everyone's attention.
There are countless human dwellings on the bowl, many humans with animal skins tied around their waists and wooden sticks and stones in their hands, some of them are working hard, and some are fighting with wild beasts. But on some mountain peaks covered by clouds, there are some people wearing Taoist robes who are spitting out clouds and absorbing qi, which are the ancient legendary qi refiners.
Between these many peaks. There is another peak that reaches the heavens and the earth, and most of it is hidden in the clouds and mist, and there are two words written on the peak - 'not Zhou'!
Not Zhoushan?
"Good bowl!"
Shi Dongtian praised loudly: "Gourmet and famous utensils, Brother Zhou is really everyone in the kitchen industry, he is really extraordinary, and he is very exquisite." ”
The painting on the bowl is not made of glaze, at first glance it is painted by Zhou Yihou, this one reflects the scene of the desolation of heaven and earth, and the paintings of countless monks who have worked hard to practice are some myths and legends. But it coincides with the theme of this bowl of 'enlightenment soup', Shidongtian is a glutton for many years, of course, he understands the truth of matching food utensils, and he can't help but look forward to it.
"Huh. Temporarily depicted this big bowl, but it made the seniors smile" Zhou Yi smiled and put the big bowl in the middle of the jade table, and gently uncovered the porcelain lid: "All the seniors are all masters of the Tao, this bowl of soup is called Chengdao, but in fact, the class has an axe." I would also like to ask for your advice. ”
"Huh?"
There was no strong aroma in the big bowl, and even when Zhou Yi just opened the lid, there was no taste coming out. After a few seconds, there was a faint smell in the mouth and nose, and I couldn't tell what the taste was, not sweet and sour, not fresh and smelly, smelly and salty, obviously it seemed tasteless, but it made a group of veterans stretch their necks and suck desperately, as if they took one less breath, it was like a big loss.
Dao Wuwei, these old guys who have been cultivating for many years, didn't pay much attention to it at first, but after taking a few sips, everyone only felt refreshed, although they couldn't explain it in their mouths, they seemed to understand something in their hearts, this feeling, this taste, isn't it a realm that they have been pursuing for many years?
The realm of the Tao is not clear what language can say, and it is necessary to perceive and recognize it with your heart.
Is this still food? His heart was extremely shocked, even Chen Yingning temporarily forgot what the head token was, the Shenmu Sword was actually an ordinary ebony sword in his eyes, except for the commemorative value and the name of the empty head token, it had no use value, but at this moment he was touched by Zhou Yi's bowl of 'Enlightenment Soup', faintly as if he had grasped something, but he could lose it at any time, he didn't concentrate on it?
Zhou Yi smiled.
The way of cooking is divided into three realms: 'reactive', 'nameless', and 'selfless'. That is to say, when he opens this skill and makes delicious dishes, he can make diners reach these three realms respectively, forget their own merits, gains and losses, get rid of the shackles of fame and fortune, and finally even reach the realm of selflessness, just like the Buddhists say 'no one', 'no self', 'no longevity', 'no sentient beings', truly let go of everything, and get great joy, great happiness, and great enjoyment!
This kind of enjoyment has gone beyond the scope of enjoyment that food can give people, so it is said to be the realm of Taoism and the realm of transcending the god of cooking!
"Nothing to do!" recited silently in his heart, Zhou Yi is also looking forward to it at the moment, he did not hesitate to spend his energy and enter the Tao with cooking, and made this 'Dao soup', firstly, for the sake of the 'Shenmu Room', he had to show off his skills;
A group of old miscellaneous hairs are surrounded above the mouth of the bowl at the moment, looking at the scene in the bowl in a daze, only to see that this soup is divided into two colors, half fiery red, half white, as if there is some force pushing below, is slowly rotating, just like the Taoist Liangyi pattern, the cycle is born, changing.
This bowl is Zhou Yi in a state of leisurely travel, integrating spiritual power into pigs, sheep, cows, fish, turkeys, pigeons, geese, ducks, clams, shrimp heads and other eighteen kinds of materials to cook into broth, so that the soup base is mixed with the essence of various materials, but not only a certain material and taste, just like the change of heaven and earth, all things are born, endless changes, and even at the expense of pure willingness, try to communicate with themselves and this pot of soup with the bridge of willingness, and will have some of their own understanding of life and Taoism, and will take themselves from Zhang Sanfeng's "Rolling Yangtze River East Passing Water" The majestic rivers and mountains and the way of nature are integrated into it, and it has faintly touched the changes of the universe and the mixed elements, where is this still an ordinary soup?
Whether it is an ordinary person or a Taoist monk, when they come into contact with the 'taste' of this soup, the first thing they have to enter is the first realm of the Three Realms of Leisurely Travel-'The Realm of Meritorious Utility!'
Meritorious work, forgetting their own merits, gains and losses; these Taoists are all practicing for many years of contemporary practice, in the eyes of ordinary people, the 'immortals' are first-class, and the cultivation is profound, but the obsession is also more than ordinary people, so the more high Taoism and great virtue, the more they will not let go of doing their own 'merits', and they can't pass their own threshold, and finally they are getting farther and farther away from the avenue. It's a pity that this is all the result of Zhou Yi's use of the kitchen road, not their own enlightenment, it is not a sudden enlightenment, it is equivalent to seeing a glimmer of light in the dark room, so it is even more itchy and scratchy, it is simply a kind of happy torture.
The pot of soup in front of them no longer seems to be a soup, but a vast sky, a vast ocean, an infinite universe, and a legendary boundless innate mixed yuan world, but there is nowhere to be found! The old Taoists all looked straight at each other, holding chopsticks and spoons in their hands, but they were fixed on the top of this bowl of soup, and the scene was extremely funny.
"Good soup, I'll taste it first!"
After all, Shi Dongtian, the glutton, who was the most attentive to food, and was affected by the reactive power realm for the shortest time, so naturally he was the first to poke out the spoon, swept around the bottom of the bowl, and filled a tablespoon of 'hard work', regardless of whether it was hot or not, it was all stuffed into his mouth.
Just chewed twice, the old fairy Weng was completely stunned, there was still something in his mouth that he hadn't chewed cleanly, and there were two shiny saliva hanging from the corners of his mouth, just frozen, as if he was a little monster who had been immobilized by Sun Dasheng.
"Nameless!"
Seeing Shi Dongtian's performance, Zhou Yi smiled slightly. (To be continued......)
