After a long talk with Jin Dasco that night, my identity in Yuanbaolou has been further improved. On the next ghost market day, Jin Dasco announced in public that he would officially transfer me to the kitchen as a helper.

I said I was a cook, but in fact, I directly became the assistant of Jin Dasco. When he fried ghost food, I stood on the side and watched, and when I needed to do it, he told me to do it, obviously to train me to become a ghost food chef.

The practice of ghost meals really requires special formulas and skills, which is equivalent to applying secret techniques to the ingredients to temporarily lock the yin qi. The stronger the Yin Gong, the more Yin power will be injected into the ingredients, and the more Yin Qi will be condensed. There are also two parts to the technique of making a ghost meal: the side dish technique and the cooking technique, which are used to handle the ingredients and cook them, each with its own secrets. Because I am a serious graduate, I have no problem with theoretical knowledge and basic skills, so I learned very quickly, and Jin Dasco is also very satisfied with this.

After this period of getting along, I found that Jin Dasco is indeed loyal and decent. He was born in a rural area and worked hard in the provincial city alone for more than ten years, and now he has a job and a family, but he has not been able to find an apprentice with good qualifications. Because I was in a similar situation to him, he wanted to focus on training me. He didn't mention whether he would take over or not, but I knew in my heart that I was not from Yuanbaomen, and no matter how good I was, I was just a senior worker. But for me, being able to be a ghost chef is enough!

Qin Xiaotable was shocked by Jin Dascoop's decision. Although he did not dare, nor was he in the right to raise objections, I could see a deep jealousy in his eyes. It has been two years since Qin Xiaotable entered the Yuanbao Building, and Jin Dasco has always refused to teach him ghost food, so he can only learn secretly. But he looked around all day, and he couldn't get the real formula, and he only learned a little bit of it.

After I started learning ghost food, I found that my Yin Gong cultivation was still too low! I have been in the provincial capital for two years, but I have not made a breakthrough in Yin Gong, and I am still stuck in the second level, and I have not even been able to cultivate to the second level of perfection. So, in my newly rented small suite, I practiced Yin Gong diligently every night.

Now I live in a rented house by myself, and no one cares about what I do in the middle of the night, and the cultivation effect is much better than when I lived in the dormitory of the school. However, it is too wasteful for me to live alone in such an expensive room, and I still hope to have a hostess added to it!

After graduating, Han Jie and I briefly went back to Nanting. When I got home, I showed my graduation certificate and chef's certificate to my parents, who were so happy that they even wiped tears from their eyes. Maybe they didn't expect that a child who was so disobedient at the beginning could go out on his own and come back, and now he can support himself.

Actually, the main purpose of my return to Nanting was to go to my master to ask for an explanation!

I found him and asked directly, "Master, do you know how to stir up ghost food?" Why do you keep hiding from me and not teaching me? ”

The master did not answer my question directly, but asked me instead, "Did Donald tell you that?" ”

"It's not!" I denied it, "It doesn't matter who told me, you are nested in this small county town, but you are so famous outside, it seems that everyone knows you!" Why is that? ”

The master still refused to say anything, always trying to change the topic. He said, "Do you know why our faction is called the 'Returning Mountain Faction'? ”

"I don't know!" I'm even more angry about this question, just because of this somewhat funny name, I have always been suspected of being a fake Feng Daozhang apprentice.

"Do you know how to retreat to the mountains and forests? The ancients had a reputation but no intention of career, so they hid in the deep mountains and forests to be indifferent to fame and fortune, and transcendent things, which is a way of self-cultivation! "Master still looks like an old god, and he actually dropped his bookbag with me!

"I don't understand!" I was annoyed.

Seeing that I didn't like to hear this, Master sighed and said bitterly, "Xiao Sheng, you are my only apprentice!" You've been following me since you were two or three years old, and as the saying goes, a child is like a son! You are like my own child in my eyes, will I still hurt you? Therefore, the master who should tell you will definitely tell you in the future, and what should be taught to you will also be taught to you in the future. It's just that it's not time yet, and knowing more in advance won't do you any good! ”

I don't believe his. If he had given me the art of cooking ghost food in the first place, I wouldn't have had to go around begging for a job, I wouldn't have run into walls everywhere, and even making up for tuition and living expenses would definitely have become easier. But Master is an old stubborn, and he doesn't want to say it, and I can't force him to say it.

Before I came back, I asked him for an explanation with the mentality of asking for guilt, but in the end, I was prevaricated by this old fritter playing Tai Chi kung fu, which was really a failure!

Now that I'm back, the ghost market of the mass grave is also going to be visited. Compared with the deserted situation half a year ago, the new ghost market is still obviously improving. I don't know what method Master used, but the number of ghosts in the mass grave has almost doubled, and it is almost a hundred! Although it is not as popular as it was in its heyday two years ago, the new ghost market can be regarded as a successful reconstruction.

The old stall owners have also come back one after another. When they saw me, they were very cordial, and when they met, they greeted me very warmly and asked me how I was doing. They were full of praise when they knew that I had graduated from a technical school in the provincial capital and worked as a chef. The people in the small place are very simple and homesick, and they think that those who can gain a firm foothold in the big city outside are capable people.

The hottest stall in the new ghost market is actually Lao Tan's barbecue stall! When I went to see him, he didn't pay much attention to me, and of course, he didn't pay much attention to people. However, Lao Tan seems to have found some secrets to setting up a stall on his own, and even created several new dishes of his own that I have never seen before, and they are still very popular. This also makes me glad that Lao Tan didn't set up a stall to sell barbecue before, otherwise with such a competitor as him, my stall is estimated to go out of business!

In addition, several of my friends and buddies did not return to Nanting this summer. Ou Dong and Huang Lijun, the two mandarin ducks who flew far away, did not go home during the summer vacation as usual, and stayed there to work. The fried ghost struck while the iron was hot and took Li Dan on a hike.

Of course, I have no plans to stay for a long time, and I only took a few days off from Yuanbao House and the cake shop. In addition, Han Jie is going back to the provincial capital for an internship this summer, and after seeing all the people she should meet, the two of us made an appointment to go to the provincial capital together.
