Xuandu, Longhu firm.

Mr. Shang San was having breakfast for himself, but unexpectedly, Wei Qi and Liu Jinyuan, who had originally asked his subordinates to send them, broke in. Mr. Shang San didn't think it was any different, he had been in the mall for a long time, he was used to games, and he knew that today's events were inevitable, if Wei and Liu were sent away like this, he would feel strange.

At the moment, Mr. Shang San didn't look at Wei and Liu, but just ate by himself.

Wei Qi and Liu Jinyuan are both people who know etiquette and understand the truth of "having wine and food", so they did not make a mistake, stood quietly aside, and waited for Mr. Shang San to eat.

Shang San was not in a hurry, he had to eat breakfast, took a sip of tea and rinsed his mouth, and then put the lid of the blue and white tea bowl diagonally on the edge of the bowl, Fang Cai raised his eyes slightly, looked at Liu Jinyuan, and said with a different expression on his face: "Yo, isn't this Liu Ergongzi?" Why are you free today to take care of your business? He didn't get up while speaking, but just stretched out his hand to signal Liu Jinyuan to do it on the side, but he never looked at Wei Qi.

Liu Jinyuan clenched his fists politely at the moment, glanced at Wei Qi, and suddenly said loudly: "Fifth master, today Liu is coming with this friend Mr. Hu, just a companion." As he spoke, he bowed his hand and bowed to Yu Weiqi. He is not in a state of being above people, he has the style of an ancient gentleman, and when he sees this, he is not polite, and he goes to sit on the side seat, but he does not talk to Mr. Shang San. Liu Jinyuan sat down by himself.

Shang San saw that his dismount did not work, so he snorted at the moment, and said to the guard: "Your Excellency is here to discuss business?" The words were quite provocative.

Seeing that Mr. Shang San was looking at him, Wei Qi bowed his hand and said, "Exactly!" ”

Mr. Shang San stroked his palms and smiled at this time: "I came so early, I'm afraid I haven't eaten yet, right?" As he spoke, his eyes became cold and sharp.

Seeing this, Wei Qi seemed to be confident, and said indifferently: "I really didn't eat it!" ”

Shang San said: "If you come to talk to me about business, unless you are a friend of wine and meat, I will not accompany you." ”

Wei Qi also laughed and said: "I heard that if you want to talk about business with the third master, you must be brave enough to pass the three hurdles on the tongue, and since Hu is here today, he is willing to accompany him." With that, he lifted his placket, stepped forward, and sat down in front of the round table where Mr. Shang San had breakfast, staring at Mr. Shang San with burning eyes.

Shang San was not polite at this time, beckoned the steward to come, and after a few words, the steward turned around and left.

Liu Jinyuan was shocked when he heard Wei Qi talk about Mr. Shang San's rules, and he knew a little about the "three passes on the tongue", and knew that this Mr. Shang San traded with people, and directly came to "divide the gold in his sleeve" with other businessmen, and the bargaining was different.

As for the three dishes of the "Three Passes on the Tongue", there are many rumors in the market, but in short, they are three dishes that are non-toxic and harmless, but extremely destroy the will of the eater. It is said that when the original "three passes on the tongue" rule was set up, there was no deterrent, most of the people in the rivers and lakes were the masters of the knife head licking blood, and the severed limbs and remnants were ordinary, that is, the tip of the knife was on the neck and did not change the color. That Peng Liuwhip did not believe in evil, and in order to enter the business of the Xikou business under his name into Xuandu, he responded to the challenge, and the second dish ate the seventh chopsticks and couldn't help vomiting, and he was fascinated, and he didn't talk about business on the spot, so he was carried back to the house by his family, and his whole body trembled when he saw the food and drink within a month, and he drank medicine, and he vomited. In the end, the family couldn't, so Peng Liuye's tongue was numb, so that Peng Liuye had no sense of taste, and only then did he pick up Peng Liuye's life, but from then on, only half of the big man who couldn't speak was left, and he gave up in a few years.

Since then, the tongue rules of the Longhu firm have spread all over the business district, and when they encounter the people who are unwilling to cooperate but can't refuse, they will use this to teach their courage and will, and the people who can successfully pass these levels are often strong and determined.

Seeing that Wei Qi agreed to try, Liu Jinyuan was naturally shocked, but he knew that Wei Qi had come to do something today, so naturally he would not dissuade him. After seeing only a cup of tea, the door curtain was lifted, and the servant carried a large blue and white bowl covered with white gauze and put it on the table, and put a small blue and white bowl, a porcelain spoon, and a stove of incense, and then retreated to the side to wait.

Liu Jinyuan was curious and wanted to take a peek at the food in the bowl, but he was covered by the white silk and couldn't peep, and his nose smelled full of incense, and he didn't know the point.

But at this time, Mr. Shang San pointed to the dishes and asked, "Are you sure Mr. Hu wants to try?" ”

Wei replied with a smile: "In order to do business with Your Excellency!" ”

Shang San saw Wei Qi Shuangli and praised it: "Good courage, please!" With a wave of his hand, the servant covered his nose with a layer of gauze, and came up to remove the white veil from the first dish, as if he was very careful to put the food in the bowl in front of Wei Qi.

Liu Jinyuan's place was far away from the dining table, so he stretched his neck, and his eyes were out of reach, so he wanted to spy on one or two, so he naturally kept the precept of "don't look at indecent manners" as the master said. However, there was no prohibition of "do not smell if you are incivil" in the Master's teaching, and in a moment, the fragrance of that dish was already wafting all over the house, and it did not seem to smell bad, on the contrary, the various tastes could be said to be extremely tempting.

But after only smelling a few breaths, Liu Jinyuan noticed that something was wrong, only to feel that in the taste, the various tastes of sweet, sour, bitter, spicy, salty, fragrant and hemp were all plump and abnormal, but they were not in harmony with each other, although there were a hundred kinds of wonderful meanings, but they were mixed together as if a hundred tastes were attacking in the nose, and after a while, Liu Jinyuan felt that half of his brain seemed to explode, and his thoughts were dizzy, as if he was about to faint.

However, it is said that all kinds of tastes in this world have their own roots, and they can be regarded as a form of expression of natural qi, and the five flavors are secretly combined in the five organs, the so-called salty into the kidneys, sweet into the spleen, sour into the liver, bitter into the lungs, and bitter into the heart. If all kinds of tastes are properly blended, they can be smooth to the tongue and benefit the body. In ancient times, Chinese cooking has attached great importance to the harmony of taste, just like the cold and wet pork, but when it is used in stewed soup, if you add lotus root and ginger slices, firstly, the lotus root will be dredged and peaceful, and secondly, the ginger soup will diverge, and you can achieve a beautiful taste.

And this bowl of the first porridge of unknown things, although the taste is full everywhere, but the harmony of all kinds of flavors is improper, such as fried sugar with chili peppers, stewed clams with sour vinegar, even if it is not a personal taste, smelling and smelling the taste, it also makes people feel that the five qi are out of balance, and the viscera is unbalanced, but how can people eat? People live between heaven and earth, they need to eat every day, and the breath brought by these five flavors is often the most difficult place for people to resist. Now that all these extreme tastes are greeted in the sore spot of the eater, how can people swallow it?

But seeing that Mr. Shang San covered his mouth and nose with a wet towel at this time, he introduced lightly: "This first dish is the main meal, Tibetan porridge!" The porridge is full of mixed flavors, please use it slowly. With that, he clasped his hands, as if he was far away. This order of serving the main meal first is also the rule of the "three passes on the tongue", in short, it is to pick the discomfort of everyone to start.

Wei Qi stared at the green porridge in the bowl at this time, and sighed: "All kinds of flavors are mixed, but they are messy, just like a certain occasion!" After saying that, the face did not change color, picked up the blue and white bowl in front of him, and ate it.

A spoonful of porridge entered, Wei Qi couldn't help but turn pale, his cheeks were slightly bulging, as if he was enduring the discomfort, swallowed the porridge in his mouth, and then without saying a word, he slowly ate the porridge in the bowl. At the beginning, Wei Qi was still having a hard time eating, and his face changed, from white to blue, from green to red, from red to black, and then from black to yellow.

Mr. Shang San couldn't help but tighten his brows when he saw Wei Qi's changes. He knew that the essence of this Tibetan porridge was to disrupt the internal qi of the eater, and these flavors were naturally in harmony with the human body, and could not be opposed, unless the soul cultivator whose soul power had reached the fifth soul level could be resolved, but seeing that this Hu Zhongxian in front of him was weak, his appearance was not good, and he looked like a hawker, but where did he look like a master of soul training?

As far as he knows, when today's masters, the highest soul power of the earth system is Shi Xin to the realm of "Huangshang", while the wood system has only heard that the legendary "Muzheng" Arakisuo can reach the realm of "Ershun", and the water system belongs to the abbot of Longquan Temple today, and the abbot of Longquan Temple has no tree cultivation as the highest, and can reach the realm of "no ancient and modern". But the fire and gold two systems with the strongest combat power, even if it is a sword immortal like Old Man Cui, and the reincarnation of a living Buddha like Burning Lamp, they have not yet penetrated the fifth soul pass. But this Hu Zhongxian ......

When Shang San was thinking chaotically, he heard the porcelain spoon in his hand touching the blue and white bowl, his face was solemn, he lowered his head and sat at the table for a long time, before he spit out a breath of turbidity, and said a little weakly: "Third master, this cook in your name is extraordinary, and he can make such a superb taste, Hu can be regarded as a master." After that, he patted his belly and sighed: "I heard that this second dish should be a cold dish, so please do it." Although his breath trembled slightly, his expression felt much brighter.

Seeing this, Mr. Shang San couldn't help but have a dark face, and waved his hand, so that the person who served removed the blue and white bowl of "Tibetan porridge" and went to serve it.

Mr. Shang San said to Liu Jinyuan: "Second son Liu, if you feel unwell, you can go to the side room to avoid it." As he spoke, he did not look at Liu Jinyuan, but stared at Wei Qi's actions.

Under the smell of Tibetan porridge just now, Liu Jinyuan was already full of spirits, but his stubbornness in his heart was also stirred, thinking that since he was with Wei Qi, he should not abandon Wei Qi to steal his own idleness, and at the moment he couldn't bear the stupidity in his mind, shook his head heavily, and his tongue seemed to be covered with lead, and he couldn't speak.

Mr. Shang San sighed secretly, shook his head, and beckoned the subordinate to take a wet towel and hand it to Liu Jinyuan, signaling Liu Jinyuan to cover it on his mouth and nose. Liu Jinyuan couldn't resist at this time, so he had to cover the wet wipes, only to feel that wisps of medicinal fragrance seemed to be pouring out of the wipes, which soaked his mouth and nose like this, and most of the feeling of boredom in his chest was removed when he landed. At this time, he gradually brightened the spiritual platform, and couldn't help but look at Wei Qi with his eyes, but saw that Wei Qi was holding a pair of ivory jade chopsticks at this time, and he had already uncovered the red silk cloth on the glass food plate in front of him.

Mr. Shang San said coldly: "The second course, cold dishes, lark plate." ”

Liu Jinyuan's mouth and nose were covered at this time, and he couldn't smell the strange smell, but the glass plate was very transparent, but he saw the "cold dishes" on the plate. With this slap, Liu Jinyuan couldn't help but feel a surge in his stomach, and with a "wow" sound, he knelt on the ground, supported the floor with both hands, and vomited out the dim sum he had eaten in the house during the day with the bitter water in his stomach.

Wei Qi turned his head, looked at Liu Jinyuan, shook his head with a wry smile, and slowly took the silk cloth that had just covered the plate, blindfolded it in front of his eyes, blocked his vision, and took out the jade chopstick, accurately clamped an ingredient on the plate, and slowly handed it to his mouth.

Liu Jinyuan couldn't see what Wei Qi was doing at this time, and only felt that a burst of "defeated" smells mixed with fishy, shy, sassy, astringent, and rotten smells penetrated into his nose.

Unable to control himself anymore, Liu Jinyuan threw up again.

Kun and in the palace, the peach blossoms are always new.

The Queen Mother Yin Elk tasted a sip of red date tea, and her peach lips opened slightly and said to Feng Bao who was standing below: "Father-in-law Feng has often walked outside these days!" ”

When Feng Bao heard this, he knelt on the ground and kowtowed: "The old slave has been cold in recent days, and he has been in pain every day, but he just went out to find a Lang Zhong to take a look...... Alas, don't hide it from the mother, the old slave is a subordinate, although the hospital is good, but they all look down on the old slave and think the old slave is angry. He knelt down and took a few steps back.

It is said that the person who purifies the body in the palace is often difficult to control when he releases his hands, and once he gets sick, there will be a smell of rot overflowing. Therefore, if it is not used by the royal family, or when it is in power, often the eunuchs in the palace cannot be treated by internal doctors. Therefore, Feng Bao's answer is reasonable.

The Queen Mother didn't seem to be impatient with his reason, wrinkled her nose, and continued to ask, "Do you hear any changes outside?" ”

Feng Bao thought for a while, and said tentatively: "His Royal Highness King Qin has been going to Ganye Temple a lot recently......

The Queen Mother suddenly turned her head, stared at Feng Bao and asked, "Ganye Temple?" Did you hear that right? ”

Feng Bao lowered his head and said nothing, which was confirmed.

For a while, Kunhe Hall was silent, only the peach blossoms were flying, scattered and melodious.

Xue Xian's "Examination of the Authenticity of the Fortune Hunter": "According to various legends, it is speculated that Wu Chen should have lived in the grassland area during the Great Cause. It is said that when he lived in the Wasteland, Khuchierdan, who was only the chief of the Arc Detention tribe at that time, was willing to accept it, and if he had not gone to Fuso later and his whereabouts were unknown, Wu Yan might have left more traces in the later history of the Wasteland. ”
