Chapter 424: Descendants of the Zhan Clan
As soon as he finished eating early in the morning, Lu Xiaoxian hurried out of the house, he was going to go to the Qing Palace in Beibi Mountain. To deal with the world's first chef, only by asking Xuanxu Dao to grow out will you be sure.
Just as he was about to walk out of the courtyard across the courtyard, Lu Xiaoxian suddenly caught a glimpse of Fan Ziming sitting in the corner of the courtyard in a daze, with his beloved lame eagle standing quietly beside him.
Lu Xiaoxian couldn't help sighing: It seems that he cares too little about Fan Ziming.
Fan Ziming returned to Luoyang with Lu Xiaoxian, and it didn't take long for Lu Xiaoxian to go to Fangzhou and leave Fan Ziming in the house. Although Zhang Meng and Yin Feng Langyue took good care of Fan Ziming, Fan Ziming still felt a little lonely.
When he was in Yingzhou, Fan Ziming had a very prosperous life, but after an accident, his father left him and his home was gone. Although the imperial capital is prosperous, it is not what he wants, but fortunately, there are still lame eagles to accompany him every day.
"Ziming!" Lu Xiaoxian called softly.
Fan Ziming turned his head, hurriedly stood up, and said with a forced smile: "Is Childe going out?" ”
"When these days are over, I'll take you out hunting!" Lu Xiaoxian looked apologetic, "It's good to let the lame eagle let go of the wind and show his skills!" ”
"Thank you, Childe!" Lu Xiaoxian's concern made Fan Ziming's heart flutter, and he nodded but stopped talking.
Lu Xiaoxian saw Fan Ziming's hesitation, and stepped forward to pat him on the shoulder: "You don't have to be polite between us, just say anything you want!" ”
"Childe!" Fan Ziming plucked up his courage and said, "I want to go back to Yingzhou!" ”
"Huh?" After hearing what Fan Ziming said, Lu Xiaoxian was taken aback.
After the defeat of the imperial court in Yingzhou, Yingzhou fell into the Turkic sphere of influence. Although the Khitan and Xi people still lived in Yingzhou for a generation, they became vassals of the Turks. At this time, Yingzhou is very different from the previous Yingzhou, how can Lu Xiaoxian rest assured if Fan Ziming really wants to return to Yingzhou.
"Ziming, I know you're homesick! It's just ......" Lu Xiaoxian pondered, not knowing how to persuade Fan Ziming.
"Childe! I'm not homesick! I want to go falconry! Fan Ziming Zhenzhen said, "Childe once confessed that I tamed the eagle to deliver the news, if it hadn't happened later, this matter would have been almost successful." Now, I eat, sleep, and eat all day in Luoyang, and I think of the living dead. I don't want to live like this, I'm going to Yingzhou to falcon for my son! ”
The resolute expression on Fan Ziming's face moved Lu Xiaoxian, and he said solemnly: "Ziming, I understand your mind!" I promise your request to let you falconry, but you can't go to Yingzhou! ”
When Fan Ziming heard this, he was anxious: "If you don't go to Yingzhou, how to falconry, only there is the best Haidongqing!" ”
"I'll take care of this, and I promise to get you on the road as soon as possible! You have to trust me! ”
Fan Ziming nodded: "Of course I believe in Childe!" ”
……
According to the theory of Feng Shui, the north is Xuanwu, which is the location of Taishang Laojun, and the mountain is north of Luoyang City, which belongs to this position, so Shangqing Palace is not only a Taoist temple, but also the backer and protector of Luoyang City.
Shangqing Palace and Chang'an Taiqing Palace layout is similar, for the pattern of five halls, four courtyards, the main hall is a large 12 bays, there are four dragon pillars standing on the top of the sky, look at it from afar, rest the mountain and fight the arch, the eaves overlap, solemn and solemn.
There are stone lions and stone horses outside the mountain gate, step into the Shangqing Palace from the mountain gate that says "Qionghua", and you don't go far to see a female Taoist priest standing in the middle of the road, the cyan Taoist robe is fluttering in the wind, and a few strands of hair are lazily floating in the air. Against the backdrop of the rising sun, the complexion is as clear as jade.
"Spirit Beads! What a coincidence, you're here too! Lu Xiaoxian greeted with a smile.
Lu Xiaoxian had to admit that the spirit beads were really beautiful, and they were different from Feng Man. If Feng Man is a delicate orchid, then the spirit bead is a vigorous lotus.
At this time, he felt that something that had been deposited in his heart was slowly released. Lu Xiaoxian didn't have to have anything to do with her, but he felt that the female Taoist priest in front of him exuded a sense of mystery all over his body. The more this is the case, the more impulsive he has in his heart, Lu Xiaoxian does not deny that he is a man, men can be sexy, and men who are not lustful must be very few in this world.
"I'm waiting for you here!" Lingzhuzi's eyes flickered.
"How did you know I was coming to the Qing Palace?" Lu Xiaoxian's eyes widened.
"Don't leak it!" Lingzhu smiled playfully.
Lu Xiaoxian knew that if she didn't want to say, it would be useless for her to ask again. He still had something to do, and he didn't have time to entangle with her, so he didn't pay attention to the spirit bead, and passed by her side and continued to walk indifferently.
"Don't forget to check out Dustless when you have time!" Behind him, there was the pleasant voice of the spirit bead.
Lu Xiaoxian's footsteps did not stop, and he muttered to himself: It's really salty and delicious to worry about.
The purpose of coming to the Shangqing Palace was to invite Xuanxu out of the mountain, of course, Lu Xiaoxian would not forget to visit Feng Man. Feng Man is his favorite woman in this world, and a woman who can never be forgotten. Counting that they hadn't seen each other for a long time, Lu Xiaoxian's heart suddenly became urgent when he thought of this.
When he saw Xuanxu, Lu Xiaoxian couldn't help but be surprised.
I saw Xuan Xuan leaning on the edge of the couch, quietly closing his eyes, his face was very bad, he looked very pale, his cheekbones were raised high, and fine beads of sweat oozed from his forehead.
"Dao Chief, what's wrong with you?" Lu Xiaoxian's face was concerned.
Xuanxu barely opened his eyes, saw that it was Lu Xiaoxian, sighed and said: "Recently, I don't know if it's too hot, and many Taoist friends in Shangqing Palace have fallen ill!" ”
"Seriously? Do you want me to ask Lang Zhong to come and show you? Lu Xiaoxian asked.
Xuanxu waved his hand and said, "No need, the pill personally prepared by Daoist Qingyang has a good effect!" I'm getting better! ”
"That's good!" Lu Xiaoxian put his mind at ease.
The two chatted for a while, and Lu Xiaoxian got up and prepared to leave.
Xuanxu looked at Lu Xiaoxian and said lightly: "Master Lu, what is the matter with you coming here!" ”
Lu Xiaoxian originally intended to invite Xuanxu out of the mountain, but seeing that he was seriously ill and had not recovered, it was difficult to speak, and at this moment Xuanxu took the initiative to ask, he was a little hesitant to explain his intentions.
Seeing that Lu Xiaoxian was a little embarrassed, Xuanxu said straightforwardly: "Master Lu, let's hit it off at first sight, if Master Lu doesn't see outside, please speak up if there is anything!" ”
Seeing the sincerity of Xuanxu's words, Lu Xiaoxian no longer concealed it, and explained Wang Hufeng's challenge to the autumn wind and the reasons for the world's first chef one by one.
Xuanxu listened, pondered for a moment and said: "If I guess correctly, this person can have such skills, it is estimated that nine times out of ten he is a descendant of King Zhan." ”
"King Zhan?" Lu Xiaoxian was stunned, "Who is this King Zhan?" ”
Xuan Xuan explained: "You are not a person in the kitchen world, I don't know that King Zhan's name is excusable. But there is no cook who learns from his apprentice who does not know King Zhan. King Zhan is also known as Zhan Rat ......"
In the early days of Emperor Wen of Sui, Yang Jian, tasted to satisfy the appetite of the mouth, and ate all the delicacies of the mountains and seas, which eventually led to eating the world's delicacies like chewing wax. killed a large number of imperial chefs, causing chefs to change careers one after another, and Yang Jian posted a yellow list to recruit chefs for dishes. Zhan Rat was dissatisfied with Yang Jian's behavior, angrily exposed the emperor's list, and after meeting Emperor Wen of Sui, he told Emperor Wen of Sui that the best dish in the world was "hungry". Emperor Wen of Sui was anxious to find "hungry", and ran all over the streets and alleys with his ministers, hungry. At this time, Zhan Rat presented the "Golden Rooster Dawn" cooked with chicken, green onions, ginger, red pepper shreds, etc. as the main ingredients. Since then, sympathy for the people's feelings, hard work, opened the Sui and Tang dynasties. In order to thank Zhan Rat, Emperor Wen of Sui named Zhan Rat as the King of Zhan, and since then the kitchen industry has respected Zhan Rat as the ancestor.
After hearing this, Lu Xiaoxian suddenly realized: "No wonder this person is so good, it turns out that he is a descendant of King Zhan!" ”
Speaking of this, Lu Xiaoxian looked at Xuan Xuan with expectation: "Dao Chief, if you go out in person, there should be a glimmer of chance, right?" ”
"Impossible!" Xuan Xuan said chiseledly, "If he is really the descendant of King Zhan, no one in the world can compare to him!" ”
"How's that okay?" Lu Xiaoxian was like a frosted eggplant, and his face suddenly turned bitter.
I thought that if I invited Xuanxu out of the mountain, I would be able to compete with the world's first chef, but who knew that this was the case. Lu Xiaoxian accepted Wang Hufeng's challenge, and now it is difficult to ride a tiger. If he admits defeat to Wang Hufeng in the face of reality, he is unwilling. But what can you do if you are unwilling, who can break this game?
Lu Xiaoxian was at a loss.
Seeing that Lu Xiaoxian's face was changing, Xuan Xuan straightened up and comforted: "Master Lu, don't be too anxious, I think there will always be a way!" If you really can't do it, I will accompany you to meet the descendants of King Zhan, even if you can't win, you will see some ways. When the time comes, we'll add it up! ”
Lu Xiaoxian seemed to grasp a life-saving straw, nodded busily and said, "What the Taoist chief said is that you will be tired by then!" ”
"It's just that my body is bones, I'm afraid I'm ......" Xuan Xuan looked at Lu Xiaoxian apologetically.
"No hurry, no hurry!" Lu Xiaoxian took over, "It's still early in January, you just have to take care of your illness, and when you get well, I'll pick you up in person!" ”
It was not easy for Xuan Xuan to agree to go out, how could Lu Xiaoxian ask him to take his illness to the competition again?
Coming out of the Xuanxu house, Lu Xiaoxian suddenly became relaxed.
Although Xuanxu has promoted the world's first chef to the sky, Lu Xiaoxian is still very confident in Xuanxu. His instincts told him that there was a solution to the matter.
It's time to go see Feng Man, Lu Xiaoxian was about to go to Feng Man's residence, but suddenly felt a special gaze watching him.
Suddenly he turned his head and saw a bare head.
This is a delicate monk, his face is white and pure, his eyebrows and eyes are clear and bright, and his smart eyes reveal a bit of mystery.
A monk dressed in monk's clothes appeared in the Shangqing Palace, which was full of Taoist priests, which made people feel a little nondescript.
Lu Xiaoxian knew the little monk in front of him, and the last time he went to Xue Huaiyi, he had a relationship with Tankong. According to Xue Huaiyi, Tankong is a super genius that is rare in a century.
