"Jiro-kun, where are we going today?"

After saying goodbye to Ida Huaishu last night, Liu Mang and the others returned to the hotel arranged for them by Hachiro Yamano to rest. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

Early this morning, Ida Jiro, the son of Ida Huaishu, was waiting outside the hotel door, saying that he was going to take Liu Mang and them to go shopping.

"Liu Mangjun, today I will take you to the Tang Zhaoti Temple in Nara, which is a must-visit place for Chinese tourists who come to Dongying. ”

"Tang Zhaoti Temple, why am I so familiar with this name?" asked Five-Eyes in surprise.

"Fool, this temple was built under the auspices of Master Jianzhen. You didn't learn history well at first glance. Liu Mang scolded with a smile.

"Oh, it's Jianzhen!" The five eyes suddenly realized: "Monk, you can worship the ancestor today!"

"Go to the temple!" Hearing that it was going to Tang Zhaoti Temple, Wu Jing in the back seat suddenly became nervous.

"What's wrong, monk, what are you afraid of?" Seeing Wu Jing's demeanor, Five Eyes asked.

"How can a monk like me dare to see Master Zu. After waiting for a while, Wu Jing said squeaked.

"The little master is also a monk?" asked Jiro Ida, who was sitting in the driver's passenger seat, curiously.

"yes, it's almost a scar. ”

"Haha, you don't know this, the monks of Dongying can not only drink wine and eat meat, but also marry wives and have children, you are nothing. Liu Mang said with some amusement.

"Really?" Wu Jing's eyes lit up.

"Yes, in our Dongying, Buddhism is divided into many factions, and there is a Pure Land sect, and there is no traditional monk's precept in their teachings, as long as you are not in the practice period, it doesn't even matter if you shave your head or not. Jiro Ida explained.

"That's good, that's good!" Wu Jing nodded again and again, finally relieving herself.

Nara is nearly 500 kilometers away from Kyoto, and the driver dropped Liu Mang and them off at the high-speed rail station and drove away.

Liu Mang and others got on the high-speed train and prepared to take a car for more than two hours to go directly to Nara.

"Xiao Wu, I noticed that something was wrong, did you notice that someone was following us?" Liu Mang, who was leaning on the back of the chair, turned sideways and whispered close to Wuyan's ear.

"Follow us, no, I didn't find out!" Five-Eyes became alert: "Could it be Hachiro Yamano? ”

"It's hard to say, anyway, I'm feeling a little comfortable, maybe I'm too worried. Liu Mang thought for a moment and ordered: "Try to be careful, after all, this is someone's place." ”

"I see, boss. Five-Eyes nodded.

Liu Mang's guess was correct, not far from their seats, a man with a lowered brim, a pair of black-rimmed glasses on his face, and two mustaches on his lips took out his mobile phone and dialed a number.

"Miss Gu, I'm following Liu Mang now, they should be going to Nara, you take the next bus and come over immediately." ”

This mustachioed man is Zhuang Wei, who was with Gu Qingqing last time and was ready to deceive Liu Mang's recipe.

"I see. In the high-speed rail waiting hall in Kyoto, Gu Qingqing, who was wearing a baseball cap and dressed casually, hung up the phone and stomped his feet hatefully: "This Liu Mang is really difficult!"

For more than a month, Gu Qingqing has been looking for an opportunity to get close to Liu Mang again in order to win his favor.

It's a pity that since the last time, Liu Mang has been nesting in the restaurant every day and has never come out, so Gu Qingqing can't find a chance at all.

The employer had urged her several times to speed up the progress, which made Gu Qingqing very anxious.

This time, Liu Mang came to Dongying, and Gu Qingqing also ran over. In her opinion, this is a great opportunity.

What could be more exciting than 'meeting an old acquaintance in a foreign land', as long as it is operated properly, it will definitely make Liu Mang's good impression of her greatly increase and let the plan go smoothly.

"Liu Mangjun, in addition to arranging for you to visit Tang Zhaoti Temple today, I also booked a seat in a restaurant in Dongying, which will definitely satisfy you. Jiro Ida took out a small notebook, looked at it, and said.

Liu Mang glanced at Jiro Ida's notebook and found that it was densely recorded with the arrangement of the route and the time of arrival, and he couldn't help but admire the rigor of the Dongying people.

"What restaurant?" As soon as they heard about the food, Five Eyes and Wu Jing immediately became interested.

"The owner of this restaurant is a good friend of my father, and for 60 years, he has only been cooking eel rice with peace of mind, and he is called the 'God of Eels' by us Dongying people!"

"It's Kanjiro Kanemoto, right?" Liu Mang had already heard Ida Huaishu mention this person, so he was also looking forward to it.

Like this kind of chef who concentrates on only one kind of cuisine and regards it as his life's work, Liu Mangda admires it very much.

If it were him, he would not be able to stick to it if he only scrambled eggs and fried rice for the rest of his life - boring and repetitive work would only make people crazy, not to mention fun.

In the past two days of coming to Dongying, Liu Mang has also analyzed the character of Dongying's 'craftsman' and found that it does have a certain relationship with the 'Dao' that he and Lin Xiao discussed on the lake.

The Chinese have admired Confucianism since ancient times, and the common values of the Dongying people are Taoism.

Although Taoism originated in China, it has long since declined, but has taken root and flourished in Dongying.

The core idea of Taoism is that the Tao is natural, all-encompassing, natural and non-doing, consistent from beginning to end.

This greatly influenced the 'craftsmen' of Dongying and gave them a spiritual pursuit. In order to let them do the same thing for decades, and strive for perfection and find their true selves.

Liu Mang came to Dongying, in addition to getting back the lost "Jinling Recipes", there is another very important reason, that is, he wants to learn this 'craftsman spirit' and bring it back to China.

"Liu Mangjun, it's already here. "After more than two hours of driving, we finally arrived at our destination, Nara Prefecture.

"Wow, the air is so fresh!" said Five Eyes as soon as he got out of the car.

Nara Prefecture is located in a small plain, and there are no high-rise buildings as far as the eye can see, which is similar to the small county towns in China.

The difference is that there are a lot of trees here, and there are big trees hugging two people everywhere on both sides of the street, and the sky is very blue and clear.

"It's no wonder that Chinese people like to run to the east, such an environment is in China, and it is estimated that it is only available in Yunnan, Tibet and other places. Five Eyes sighed.

"Liu Mangjun, Nara Prefecture is surrounded by mountains, and the forest coverage rate is more than 70%, so the environment is particularly good, which is famous throughout Dongying. Jiro Ida explained.

Out of the high-speed rail station, Liu Mang and others recruited a taxi and rushed to Tang Zhaoti Temple.

At the same time, Zhuang Wei, who had been following, also quietly followed.

pS: It's going to be the New Year, there are more things, the update is a little slower, and so on for the past few days, add more to make up, sorry.
