Chapter 16

On the morning of the thirtieth day of the Chinese New Year's Eve, there was a sacrificial ceremony in Qianfu. The process of sacrifice is relatively simple, one stick of incense, three bows. Although it is a sacrifice, the meaning of the sacrifice is slightly different from each other. The young masters of Qianfu are worshipping their ancestors, and the servants of Qianfu are worshipping the sky.

A few years ago, this sacrificial ceremony was presided over by the second young master, and this year's Chinese New Year has the eldest young master in the mansion, and perhaps the eldest young master will preside. Of course, it is not ruled out that this matter is fully entrusted to the second young master.

Xu Tianxuan cleaned up and made sure that his clothes were in place.

With the white egg that had not yet woken up, Xu Tianxuan walked out of the door, ready to go to Aunt Li's family. Unexpectedly, as soon as he stepped out of the house, he immediately heard two cranes, Xu Tianxuan fixed his eyes and saw that a crane flew in the small courtyard at some point.

Seeing Xu Tianxuan's appearance, the crane hurriedly called two warm greetings to Xu Tianxuan, and at the same time, it walked to Xu Tianxuan with its thin legs and walked to Xu Tianxuan with an elegant attitude. Extremely inconsistent with its slender neck, it had a big red heavy burden tied around its neck.

Xu Tianxuan subconsciously touched his stamina, the neck of the crane was thin and long, would it be possible to accidentally flash his neck with such a big burden. He looked at the crane, pointed to the baggage, and tried to ask, "This is for me?" ”

Hearing this, the crane chirped again, and it actively leaned its neck in the direction of Xu Tianxuan. Its actions gave Xu Tianxuan an accurate answer.

The unexpected surprise made Xu Tianxuan feel good, and he happily took off the festive burden. I don't know who is so kind, I gave Xu Tianxuan a big congratulatory gift early in the morning, no matter who it is, he is definitely a super good person!

Excitedly unburdened with emotion, Xu Tianxuan saw a letter and a delicate five-layer food box. On the front of the envelope are four strong and powerful characters: Xiaozu Jingqi.

Looking at the words on the envelope, Xu Tianxuan suddenly raised the corners of his mouth. Use this honorific title to call Xu Tianxuan, and Xu Tianxuan is familiar with only one person, the master of Yunxiangguan.

A sloppy old man's immortal talisman brought some changes to Xu Tianxuan, among them, this free junior Yunguan Lord came the most realistically, and sent a large box of food to Xu Tianxuan early in the morning.

Eagerly opening the envelope, Xu Tianxuan quickly scanned the contents of the letter. The letter was not long, it was indeed written by Yun Yichang himself, in addition to explaining what dishes were in the food box, he also explained to Xu Tianxuan the arrangements for the day.

Liuhua Ancestor had already returned to Yunxiang City in the early hours of the morning, but the Ancestor did not rush to Qianfu immediately, this time the Ancestor arrived at Yunxiang Temple. After all, today is the thirtieth year of the Chinese New Year's Eve, and the ancestor who is an elder should accompany the juniors to have a New Year's dinner.

The ancestor is like this, as the master of Yunxiang Guanguan, how can Yun Yichang slip away by himself, he is still eating New Year's dinner with the Taoist priests of Quanguan.

So, at the noon banquet, the sloppy old man and Yun Yi often stayed in Yunxiangguan. In the evening, they will go to Qianfu for a banquet and taste the delicious taste of the Qianfu banquet.

Yun Yichang still remembers Xu Tianxuan's careful wish and looks forward to trying the New Year's meal of the Taoist temple. However, Yun Yichang and Lao Zu arrived at Qianfu later, Yun Yichang was worried that Xu Tianxuan couldn't wait, so he specially prepared a separate one for Xu Tianxuan early, and sent it to the crane in the view of fate.

Even if the food box is a little heavy, even if the cold wind in the early morning is a little cold, the hard-working crane still flies to Qianfu with a big burden on his thin neck to face the winter wind.

The first chirp Xu Tianxuan heard just now was not a crane, but the crane didn't wake up, and opened his mouth and yawned.

Of course, the immortal crane will not tell such a truth when he is killed.

After receiving the first gift of the day, Xu Tianxuan had to sigh that Yun Yichang was righteous enough, and guessed that he had not eaten breakfast yet, so he sent the food in time, and the gift was still extremely rich and precious.

In the past, the Taoist New Year's dinner was very ordinary and had no characteristics. However, this year happened to be different, Xu Tianxuan was extremely lucky. The sloppy old man went out this time and made a special trip to hunt a few fleshy spirit beasts and bring them to the juniors of the Taoist temple to eat for the New Year. Spirit animals are not rare, but they are not common in the mundane world.

The flesh and blood of the spirit beast contains an unusually rich aura, which is a kind of food for monks to nourish themselves and improve their cultivation, and for mortals, although the effect is not as obvious as that of monks, it can also strengthen the body and prolong life.

The spirit beasts captured by the sloppy old man this time are all high-level or even top-level spirit beasts, and two of the top-level spirit beasts have been sent to the kitchen of Qianfu, although there are not many of them, they are big enough, and there are opportunities for people in Qianfu to try them.

The remaining spirit beasts were left in Yunxiangguan for their own digestion.

Out of respect for Xiao Zu, and also out of gratitude for Xiao Zu's care, there was a dish in the food box that belonged to Yun Yichang and was not a dish cooked by a fresh spirit animal.

At that time, Yun Yichang was still in the Liuyun Immortal Sect. Once he went out alone to practice, and finally hunted and killed an extremely fierce wind python. The wind python weighs a thousand catties, and the useful Neidan and python skin python bones are all put into the storage ring, and the remaining python meat is kept in the zài storage bag.

Yun Yichang never expected that that experience would become the last experience of his career as a monk. When he returned to the sect, he encountered a great change, and all the qiē he had worked so hard to obtain was deprived of it. Soon after, Yun Yichang was sent to the mortal realm to take charge of Yun Xiangguan for a hundred years.

Many years after coming to Yunxiangguan, Yun Yichang was still unwilling, and he hated it in his heart. However, time is like water, and in the blink of an eye for decades, he has to face a boring life with no future in sight.

Until this time, Yun Yi often met Xu Tianxuan, and the young Xu Tianxuan carried everything on his shoulders, and he was very grateful in his heart, and rarely complained about anything.

Xu Tianxuan does not complain about his parents, he believes that they must have a last resort to leave themselves in infancy. The old hunter couple loved Xu Tianxuan very much, and Xu Tianxuan felt that he was living a very happy life.

Even later, the two old men passed away, but Xu Tianxuan met the wolf again. Although he has the heavy responsibility of supporting his family, Xu Tianxuan's life is no longer lonely and boring.

Even if he was unlucky enough to meet a bad guy he hated, Xu Tianxuan got the help of Young Master Qianda for this. Living a plain and simple life in Qianfu, Xu Tianxuan felt that he was quite lucky.

There are gains and gains, gains and losses.

The old hunter once said to Xu Tianxuan: "Child, people have to look forward when they are alive!" ”

Suffering is a grind, and it is better to face it than to avoid it. After stepping through the painful hurdles, the heart will be stronger and braver, and sooner or later one day will usher in their own happiness.

Yun Yichang did not fully agree with Xu Tianxuan's views, but he understood that the past was already in the past, and he continued to dwell on the past would only drag down his existing life. Only by letting go of the past can he travel lightly and face his future.

Those valuable items in the past have long been taken away, and Yun Yi often takes out those leftover python meat and thinks about it for a long time. If you give it up and look bad, you might as well eat it!

Yun Yichang never explained his experience, only that this was the wind python he personally killed a hundred years ago, a middle- and low-level demon beast. The demon beast is far more fierce than the spirit beast, and the meat quality is far more delicate and strong than the spirit beast, even if the grade of the big demon snake is not high, the taste is remarkable.

After Xu Tianxuan read the letter, he was stunned, he didn't know what kind of expression to use to face the letter.

Should he lament that there is a big demon snake in the food box, or should he lament that the monk's methods are really powerful. Python meat has been stored for a hundred years, are you sure it doesn't taste?

However, what made Xu Tianxuan worry the most was that the big demon snake was actually a demon beast that Yun Yichang hunted a hundred years ago.

Xu Tianxuan touched his chin, Yun Yichang a hundred years ago could already hunt and kill the big demon snake, so how old is Yun Yichang, who looks like he is eighteen years old? Could it be the legendary eternal eighteen? This cheap junior is actually an old grandfather?

Speaking of which, Lord Yunguan was really polite, Xu Tianxuan didn't just pour a medicinal soup for him, and also made a special trip to give him a big demon snake dish. Xu Tianxuan was a little reluctant not to go, but the food that could be delivered to the door, Xu Tianxuan would never refuse, he had to taste it fresh!

Xu Tianxuan lifted the lid of the box, and was immediately aroused by the fragrance emanating from the box, he brushed the snow on the stone steps, and sat down on the spot. He put the food box on his lap, rubbed his hands excitedly, and studied the dishes in the food box layer by layer with anticipation.

Even if the big fish and meat are not conducive to digestion from early in the morning, Xu Tianxuan doesn't mind at all. What does the spirit beast taste like, what does the demon beast taste like, he has never eaten it.

Xu Tianxuan stared at the food on each floor, and his eyes lit up.

In addition to the special braised python meat, there are also steamed fish, spicy shrimp, sweet and sour pork ribs, stir-fried shredded vegetables, and meatball soup......

Xu Tianxuan looked at it smoothly, and his saliva flowed. The appearance of these dishes is similar to that of ordinary dishes, but the aroma is particularly enticing and appetizing.

Facing such a strong temptation early in the morning, as a teenager, how could Xu Tianxuan withstand it, he had only lived for fifteen years.

Resolutely giving up resistance, Xu Tianxuan picked up the chopsticks without hesitation and took a big bite to eat. He took a bite of meat on his left and a bite of fish on his right, and ate it with great pleasure.

While eating, he thought in his heart that the food in the Taoist temple was really good. Why don't you catch up with him and the White Rabbit to partner up in Yunxiangguan to become a Taoist monk and cultivate immortals? Anyway, it would take him seventy or eighty thousand years to refine the Zhenyun Immortal Fu.

Soon, Xu Tianxuan, who was gobbling up, couldn't help but hear the sound of swallowing saliva around him, and in addition, there were other hot eyes nearby that fell directly on him.

He turned his head to see that the white rabbit had come at some point, and his red eyes widened.

The eyes of the white rabbit were about to fall into Xu Tianxuan's plate, and the rabbit's ears stood straight. He couldn't believe what he had seen, there were a lot of spirit beast meat, and there was also demon beast meat. This color and fragrance is simply scratching my heart!

Eating this meat is very good for his practice!

White Rabbit couldn't participate in the Qianfu family banquet, and he was afraid of Bai Da, so that White Rabbit didn't dare to go to Bai Er's New Year's dinner, so White Rabbit strongly protested Xu Tianxuan's behavior of burying his head in and only enjoying the food for himself.

To Xu Tianxuan's surprise, there was also an immortal crane standing on the united front with the White Rabbit.

When the food box was delivered, the immortal crane did not leave immediately, especially from the moment Xu Tianxuan lifted the lid of the food box, its eyes were staring at the top of the dish and did not move.

The crane didn't dare to come to Xu Tianxuan's side like the white rabbit, it could only look at it from a distance and not close.

Xu Tianxuan found the white rabbit, and at the same time, he also found the crane that was looking directly at the food box. This kind of look is very familiar to Xu Tianxuan, and the nine humanoid creatures he adopted were all like this when they begged for support.

Xu Tianxuan, who had long been accustomed to this qiē, smiled and waved his hand: "Come over and eat together!" ”

However, Xu Tianxuan didn't invite them to have a big meal on the stone steps outside. How to explain it in case someone bumps into him, he has a good relationship with a rabbit and a crane to eat on the ground?

It's really not kind to be scary during the Chinese New Year. So, Xu Tianxuan picked up the food box and returned to the room to continue tasting the spirit animal dishes.

At the same time, Xu Tianxuan's next-door neighbor was in a fluctuating mood.

The old butler sniffed carefully, and then sniffed again: "What smell, so fragrant?" ”

He firmly believes that it must be the cooks who are quietly preparing for the banquet, and the fragrance wafts so far away! I don't know what new delicacies have been added this year, but smelling it will make the population flow for a long time.
