Chapter 420:-for-tat

"Master Lu, long time no see!" Lai Junchen also bowed his hand to Lu Xiaoxian very politely, and glanced at Wang Hufeng inadvertently.

Wang Hufeng comprehended, didn't care about the unhappiness in his heart, put a smile on his face again, looked at Lu Xiaoxian and said: "Lu Gongzi is not in Luoyang for a while, I'm afraid I don't know yet, the business of Qiu Fengpo is getting worse and worse, and it is estimated that it will be closed in a few days!" ”

Lu Xiaoxian heard it, Wang Hufeng was deliberately provoking himself, he looked Wang Hufeng up and down, and said quietly: "Isn't it just an autumn wind, the door will be closed when it is closed, I really didn't pay attention to it!" ”

Speaking of this, Lu Xiaoxian paused and teased: "Besides, what does it matter to you if the autumn wind breaks the gate or not?" What the are you? ”

"Of course it has something to do with me!" Wang Hufeng's face was thick enough, and he still had a smile on his face: "Doesn't Gongzi Lu want to know what is going on?" ”

"Don't want to know!" Lu Xiaoxian replied coldly, and then hugged his fist towards Lai Junchen and said, "Come to Zhongcheng, I'll invite you to dinner another day, don't leave it today!" ”

Lai Junchen narrowed his eyes and said slowly: "Since the shopkeeper has something to say, what does it matter if Gongzi Lu listens?" ”

How could Lu Xiaoxian not care about the autumn wind breaking?

Autumn Wind Break was the first industry he operated after arriving in Luoyang, and he paid a lot of effort for it. If there was no autumn wind, it would have been impossible to get acquainted with Di Renjie, Cui Xiang, Zhang Yizhi and others. Besides, if the autumn wind breaks and closes the door, won't Liu Qi, Cen Shaobai, Chen San, Wu Liu and others have no place to stay?

Lu Xiaoxian could hear that Wang Hufeng was by no means alarmist, and Qiu Fengpo must be in trouble. The reason why he pretended to be indifferent was to test whether Lai Junchen had anything to do with the matter.

Sure enough, Lai Junchen made an undisguised attitude. From his name for Wang Hufeng, Lu Xiaoxian can conclude that Lai Junchen has nothing to do with this matter, and it may even be that this matter was planned by him.

It seems that Lai Junchen is ready to deal with himself.

There are some things that are clear in my heart, but I can't say it, Lu Xiaoxian nodded, and said with some reluctance: "Since I came to Zhongcheng to say it, of course I can't refute your face!" ”

After that, Lu Xiaoxian withdrew his smile, looked at Wang Hufeng and said angrily: "If you have a fart, let it go, my son has no time to chat with you!" ”

"The reason why Qiu Fengpo became famous in Luoyang City is that he can continue to innovate dishes, and secondly, because there are two top masters, Chen San and Wu Liu!" Wang Hufeng shook his head and said proudly, "I found a master, as long as he tastes all the newly created dishes of Autumn Wind, he can make them exactly the same, and the taste is even better than that of Autumn Wind." This master has already tried cooking skills with Chen San and Wu Liu, and Chen San and Wu Liu have been defeated. The two advantages of the autumn wind break no longer exist, how can it not close the door in the future? ”

Lu Xiaoxian frowned and did not speak.

Wang Hufeng glanced at Lai Junchen out of the corner of his eyes, and Lai Junchen bowed slightly.

Wang Hufeng cleared his throat, and then said: "I was going to make a special trip to Lu Gongzi's house to deliver the post, since we met by chance today, it is better to choose a day than to hit the day, Wang has the courage to invite Lu Gongzi to fight, and the autumn wind breaks and Zuixiaolou will have another cooking showdown, how about it?" ”

Seeing Wang Hufeng's confident appearance, Lu Xiaoxian knew that the master in the other party's mouth was definitely not simple. It's just that his mind is now on how to deal with the situation after Li Xian's return, how can he be in the mood for a cooking showdown?

"What kind of cooking showdown, this son is not interested!"

Lu Xiaoxian's simple refusal made Wang Hufeng unexpected, and he was stunned for a while. At the same time, Lai Junchen showed a playful smile on his face.

Lai Junchen's expression fell into Lu Xiaoxian's eyes, and he suddenly fluttered in his heart for no reason.

Who is Lai Junchen?

He was a cool official to be feared by everyone, and there were not a thousand but eight hundred people who died at his hands. It stands to reason that Junchen doesn't need to go to such great lengths to deal with himself, the reason why this is the case can only show that the other party still has some scruples about himself and wants to test himself through Wang Hufeng.

If Lu Xiaoxian retreats at this moment, Junchen will definitely gain an inch in the future, which is not what Lu Xiaoxian wants to see.

After Li Xian returned to the imperial capital, in the competition of several forces, Lai Junchen would play a great role. In other words, one day in the future, it is inevitable that there will be a bad relationship between Lu Xiaoxian and Lai Junchen. Since this is the case, it is even more impossible to retreat.

In the flash of light, Lu Xiaoxian changed his mind: he wanted to go toe-for-tat with Lai Junchen, so that he could not underestimate himself.

"But! For the sake of your long lesson, I have taken the battle! Lu Xiaoxian suddenly changed his words and said meaningfully, "The person who wants to take advantage of this son should not have been born yet!" ”

The playfulness on Lai Junchen's face turned into astonishment, of course he heard that Lu Xiaoxian was saying it to himself, and he also heard the meaning of the words.

Of course, Wang Hufeng would not have thought that Lu Xiaoxian and Lai Junchen had already had a confrontation in a short period of time, and continued to himself: "Since this is the case, then I will talk about the rules of this duel." ”

"Say it! I'm listening! Lu Xiaoxian was unusual, smiled at Wang Hufeng, and his voice slowed down a lot.

Lu Xiaoxian's attitude suddenly changed, which made Wang Hufeng stunned: this person is young but so fickle, it is difficult to predict.

However, Wang Hufeng quickly came back to his senses, and continued: "As long as it is a dish that can be made by the autumn wind, I guarantee that Zuixiaolou can make it." Let's take one month, but if there is a dish that can't be made in Xiaolou, even if I lose, otherwise even if Lu Gongzi loses! How is it? ”

"No problem, I accept it!" Lu Xiaoxian asked rhetorically, "Since it is a duel, there must be a bet, I don't know what the bet is?" ”

Wang Hufeng said so much, there must be a purpose, and what he wants to do after the final duel is over, this is what Lu Xiaoxian cares about.

Wang Hufeng licked his lips and said: "This bet is a bet, it will be decided by the winning side after the result of the duel comes out!" ”

After speaking, Wang Hufeng smiled a little uneasily, and his eyes couldn't help but glance at Junchen. Twelve Literary Network

Lai Junchen's face was calm and he didn't speak, as if the matter had nothing to do with him.

Not only did Wang Hufeng feel that something was wrong, but even Zhang Meng and Yin Feng Rongyue on the side also felt that this condition was too much.

Since it is a competition, of course, the bet of victory and defeat should be said in front, and the bet that will be determined after the winner is divided is extremely unfavorable to the losing side. If the winner lets the loser die, does it really have to die?

Not to mention Lu Xiaoxian, no one would agree to such harsh conditions.

"Ugh! That's a good idea! Lu Xiaoxian didn't take it to heart at all, and nodded thoughtfully, "Okay, it's decided!" ”

"Ahh Wang Hufeng opened his mouth wide, and Lu Xiaoxian's readily agreed was beyond his expectations.

The young man in front of him has never acted according to common sense, no wonder Lai Junchen is so jealous of him. Originally, Wang Hufeng was very confident of winning, but at this moment, a trace of uneasiness suddenly arose in his heart: Could it be that Lu Xiaoxian is sure of victory?

Impossible, Wang Hufeng quickly denied his speculation.

The strength of the masters he invited was there, and it was verified, even if Lu Xiaoxian had great ability, it was impossible to win.

Thinking of this, Wang Hufeng felt a little relieved.

"If that's the case, then I'll take my leave!" Lu Xiaoxian said lightly, "A month will pass soon, and we'll see when the time comes!" ”

With that, Lu Xiaoxian turned around and walked away in the direction he came.

Zhang Meng, Yin Feng, and Lang Yue were a little at a loss, and hurriedly followed Lu Xiaoxian and left.

Lai Junchen quietly looked at Lu Xiaoxian's back, and his eyes couldn't help narrowing.

Lai Junchen's original intention was to test Lu Xiaoxian and let Lu Xiaoxian retreat. Who knew that Lu Xiaoxian did not mean to back down at all, but put on a tough posture, which made it difficult for Lai Junchen to ride a tiger.

Lai Junchen has never been a person who likes to regret, and since he is right, he has to fight to the end. In this kind of thing, Lai Junchen's philosophy is very simple: either you die or I live.

Seeing that Lai Junchen was silent, Wang Hufeng leaned over and asked in a low voice, "Lord Zhongcheng, what ......is the next step?"

Lai Junchen said quietly: "You managed to spread the story of the duel between Qiu Feng Po and Zuixiao Tower, it is best to let everyone in Luoyang know!" ”

"Why is that?" Wang Hufeng said strangely.

Lai Junchen suddenly retracted his gaze, stared at Wang Hufeng and said coldly: "You can do what you want, there are some things that you shouldn't know." ”

Wang Hufeng couldn't help but shudder, and hurriedly responded: "I understand, I understand!" ”

……

Lu Xiaoxian walked aimlessly on the street, recalling the scene of his chance encounter with Lai Junchen just now.

Although Lai Junchen is very famous, Lu Xiaoxian has not taken it too seriously. Today's confrontation made Lu Xiaoxian realize that this person was far more difficult to deal with than he imagined.

"Xiaoxian, do you really want to compete with him?" Zhang Meng asked uneasily.

"What's wrong? Isn't it possible? Lu Xiaoxian stopped, his face full of lightness.

"It's probably not as simple as you think!" Zhang Meng's tone suddenly became solemn, "You are not in Luoyang these days, and there are some things that happen that you don't know!" ”

Zhang Meng's words were quite similar to what Wang Hufeng said just now, and Lu Xiaoxian asked curiously: "What happened?" ”

Zhang Meng said in a loud voice: "The master mentioned in Wang Hufeng's mouth should be 'the first chef in the world'!" ”

The world's first chef?

What a big breath.

The reason why Lu Xiaoxian dared to agree to Wang Hufeng's conditions was that he had confidence.

The food culture of the Tang Dynasty was too far from the later generations, and the chef of any small restaurant in the later generations was to be placed in the Tang Dynasty, which was also top-notch.

Although Lu Xiaoxian's cooking skills are not very good, he is also from later generations, and he can just take out a few dishes from later generations to meet the situation based on his memory, and few people in this world can learn it. Because of this, the autumn wind will stand out among the many restaurants in Luoyang.

Regardless of whether you are the first chef or the second chef in the world, strength is the last word, Lu Xiaoxian does not believe that the chef more than a thousand years ago can be higher than the level of future generations.

Thinking of this, Lu Xiaoxian couldn't help but laugh.
