Zhang Zhao carried the branch for a long time, quickly took off the big fish, and began to stab the fish again after reciting the incantation silently. After the first success, Zhang Zhao was full of confidence, and the hand-eye cooperation and the use of the golden words in his brain became more and more proficient, and after dozens of stabs, he picked up a big fish.

After piling up more than a dozen big fish on the raft, Zhang Zhao pulled the rattan rope back to the shore, and carried the fish back to the small courtyard with rattan threads. Zhang Zhao washed his hands and removed the bones of the pork knuckles, then re-ignited the fire and fried it, put in the soybeans that had been prepared long ago, and added some water to cover and stew.

Zhang Zhao put the fish into the clay pot, fumbled to take out the internal organs, washed it clean, and cooked it with water on the stove next to it. Smelling the fresh smell gradually coming out of the pot and looking forward to it, after opening the lid, he saw pieces of white scales floating everywhere on the fish soup, and it tasted tasteless, he took out a fish and tasted it, and spit out a few fish scales that couldn't be chewed in his mouth, Zhang Zhao didn't understand why the delicious fish described by the gentleman in the town was so different from the fish in this pot.

Hard-headed, Zhang Zhao ate more than a dozen scaly fish. Although I don't think the fish is hard to swallow, it's hard to eat the bones and scales.

Zhang Zhao brought the food on time and entered the Yangxian Hall, and the elders noticed that he seemed to be a little disappointed. Seeing that the dishes in the bowl were pieces of elbow meat, I thought that Zhang Zhao had failed again today.

"Boy, although I have never caught a fish, I know that it is not easy, don't worry. Sheng Jin kindly said comfortingly.

While handing out the food, Zhang Zhao replied helplessly: "I caught a fish, but the fish is not delicious at all, and there are still a lot of things in it that can't be chewed." ”

Sheng Jin was a little puzzled: "I've eaten it before, although the fish is a little fishy, but it's quite delicious." Is this fish any different?"

Zhang Zhao finished dividing the meal, stood in the hall and sighed: "I ate more than a dozen, and it's not too much trouble to have more bones in it, but I don't know where those white things come from." It's hard and small, and I've washed it all. ”

Elder Shu, who had been listening to him with his eyes closed, tilted his head sideways and thought for a while, and suddenly asked out loud, "Did you scrape off the scales before you got out of the pot?"

Zhang Zhao asked blankly, "What scales?"

Elder Shu laughed loudly, and several elders looked at him in amazement. Elder Uncle was plotted against him when he went down the mountain two years ago, and he was blind, and he has been depressed these days, and everyone doesn't know what Zhang Zhao said to make him so happy.

After coughing a few times, Elder Shu gasped and smiled: "Before eating, the fish should be scraped off in the direction of the head, and the fish served on the table are all scraped clean first, which is naturally delicious." It's not easy for you to eat a dozen fish with scales. Thinking of this, Elder Shu laughed again.

Elder Uncle knew a lot, and after his laughter subsided, he told Zhang Zhao about the practice of fish, and Zhang Zhao suddenly realized that it was not that fish was not delicious. He rejoiced. "Thank you, Elder Uncle, tomorrow I will make you some fish to eat according to your method. ”

Several elders all picked up their rice bowls with smiles and ate their meals, and they liked it even more after tasting the soybean stewed elbow in the bowl. The elbow meat Zhang Zhao cooked early, and soaked it in the soup for half a day, which was full of flavor. After adding soybeans to stew, there is more of a fragrance.

The elbow meat is soft and sticky, melts in the mouth, and the soybeans are full of fragrance, and after chewing, they are swallowed with gravy rice, and they are mixed with an indescribable wonderful taste. Several elders felt that the taste was not inferior to yesterday's beef, and they were all very satisfied with the food.

After Zhang Zhao packed up his rice bowl and went out, Sheng Jin exhaled a long time: "A bowl of rice can make today's Lao Sheng and me satisfied, it seems that he is really old." Seeing that no one refuted him, Sheng Jin said with a smile: "Zhu Qingzhen's vision this time is really good, where did he find such a kid, he is simply a natural cook." ”

Hearing Sheng Jin's words, several elders couldn't help but nod slightly, even Elder Leng, who had always worked against him, felt the same way.

Zhang Zhao didn't know that the elders' evaluation of him had risen to the level of a cook. After cleaning up and lying on the bed, Zhang Zhao was busy playing with the golden words in his head.

After fishing in the lake, Zhang Zhao had a new understanding of these golden words. After the golden characters are scattered, he can not only transform into what he usually sees and thinks, but also explore some places around him that cannot be seen by the naked eye. And this feeling became clearer and clearer after Zhang Zhao's many attempts.

Zhang Zhaoping was lying on the bed, and the four golden characters in his mind spread out and swept around him. Whether it was the clothes in the corner of the bed, the cloth shoes under the bed, and the strange knife placed next to the pillow, he could see them all in his mind when he closed his eyes.

At this time, for the first time, he felt that the four golden characters were too few, and the golden light could only extend two feet away in a certain direction of his own and he was unable to move forward.

Although the scope was limited, Zhang Zhao found it just as fun, he controlled the golden light transformation realm in his mind to turn around, looking at this side for a while, sweeping that side for a while with great interest, and only after a long time did he fall asleep quietly.

The next day, Zhang Zhao returned to the small courtyard after killing the livestock, and went directly to the lake, with the experience of the first two days, Zhang Zhao skillfully stabbed one big fish after another, calculated that the number was enough to eat before he stopped, at this time it was still early, Zhang Zhao sat on the shore for a while, looking at the clear blue and clear lake water and had a whim. He tied the rope back around his waist and walked into the lake to play.

The time Zhang Zhao fell into the water from the raft, he was indeed scared enough to choke and drank a lot of water, but the cool ups and downs of the lake water also gave him a fresh feeling, and he rolled back and forth in the shallow water with a rattan rope, enjoying this kind of fun.

After playing for a long time, Zhang Zhao began to go to a deeper place, and his body gradually adapted to the feeling in the water, and occasionally he could swing forward a few times on the water surface.

On this day, the elders of Yangxian Hall finally ate the fish, and Zhang Zhao removed the scales and tails of the fish he caught, cut them into sections and stewed them in a pot. Although the method was simple, Zhang Zhao cooked fish for the first time, and the fresh and sweet fish meat still made the elders full of praise.

The following days Zhang Zhao lived more and more fully. After getting up early and finishing the exercise, I went to the back kitchen to finish my work, and came up with rice noodles, either to lie down in the green space in the forest for a while, or to go to the lake to fish and play in the water.

Although the elders of Yangxian Hall no longer mentioned any dishes, Zhang Zhao still remembered them in his heart, and changed his tricks every day to make different dishes and send them out. His wholehearted dedication made laughter and laughter in the Yangxian Hall from time to time, and the only thing that remained unchanged was the Elder Pang who was sitting on his back, except for the occasional and imperceptible eating more meals, Zhang Zhao never saw his face.

The girl in white who met by the lake has never been seen, and Zhang Zhao has to look at the footprints for a while every day when he fetches water. Occasionally, in his dreams, the golden characters will also conjure up a woman's face, and when Zhang Zhao wakes up, he often can't tell whether the face is a girl in white or his long-lost mother.

A month after Zhang Zhao arrived in Lingxiao, the golden characters in his mind finally increased by one, and after the five golden characters were mixed into a ball of golden light, Zhang Zhao's perception range also expanded a little.

Once Zhang Zhao accidentally spread the golden words in his mind when cooking, he found that he could sense the condition of the food in the pot, and after trying it for half a month, the degree of raw and cooked meat and vegetables cooked in the pot can also be well understood.

Now his cooking skills have improved even more, and several elders can't wait to let Zhang Zhao take care of breakfast together. But they knew that Zhang Zhao had to get up early to help in the kitchen. I can only bury this wish deep in my heart.

The names and experiences of the elders were also known by Zhang Zhao during the casual conversation, Sheng Jin was an elder of the Lingxiao Divine Weapon Pavilion, and he was ambushed on the way back from buying materials and cut off one of his left legs.

Deng Chunyuan was an elder of the Miscellaneous Affairs Hall, but when he was attacked, he witnessed the killing of several of his disciples, and returned to the mountain to tell the old man to enter the Yangxian Hall.

Elder Leng and Elder Liu were in the same deacon hall, and Leng Pingyuan had gone wrong in his practice, but now his hands and feet were stiff and his movements were extremely slow. Liu Feng failed in the competition with others, and his anger was injured, and he withdrew from the deacon hall in discouragement.

Uncle Jiuling's eyes were attacked and blinded, and his younger brother Cheng Yanzi, who has been a sibling since childhood, accompanied him here to recuperate.

Pang Feiyang, who was sitting on his back, had a lot of prestige in Lingxiao, he was the first seat of the Eagle Hall, the Lingxiao Eagle Hall was wiped out a year ago, and the original murderer who ambushed the disciples did not know who killed him on the spot, Pang Feiyang was full of grief and anger and had nowhere to vent, and he didn't want to face the empty hall all day long, so he came here by himself.

The January period passed early, and Zhu Qingyu came once when Zhang Zhao was away, and the elders in the Yangxian Hall praised each other, and Elder Zhu returned with a light and satisfied body.

The fat master now regards Zhang Zhao as his right-hand man, and the disciples in the kitchen are also familiar with Zhang Zhao. During the day, everyone was busy, and at night they were all tired and rested early, so there was no opportunity to get together.

It turned out that in the town, Zhang Zhao and Ding Dayou and Cui Meng often went up the mountain to dig medicine and take clips to roast some game. He wanted to invite the kitchen disciples to play by the lake several times, but he couldn't say anything after thinking about it. Zhang Zhao is still looking forward to the day when the girl in white will suddenly appear, and the place with shoe prints by the lake belongs only to him and her in Zhang Zhao's heart.

Zhang Zhao carried a lot of fresh meat, rice, noodles and vegetables in the back kitchen every day, and the small kitchen let him clean up neatly, and the weeds in the backyard were also cleaned up, and the ground in the courtyard was flat, which looked a little bit better.

After breakfast that day, the elders in the retreat began to discuss what to eat in the evening. Originally, they felt that there were too few dishes in the back kitchen, but now that Zhang Zhao has made more tricks, the elders feel that it is even more difficult to choose.

"I said let's eat scallion roasted fish at night, it tastes good. Sheng Jin preemptively said one.

Elder Deng looked at him, "Have you never eaten fish in the first half of your life? Didn't you just eat fried fish yesterday and still eat it today?"

Seeing Leng Pingyuan looking over with disdain, Sheng Jin waved his hand: "Okay, you choose, I'll follow the general meal." ”

Shu Jiuling is much more energetic now, he closed his eyes and thought about it: "The dish that Zhang Zhaolai made on the tenth day was good, but I forgot the name. ”

Sheng Jin asked loudly, "Senior Brother, how do you know that it is the tenth day?"

"Because that day you shouted loudly, saying that it had been ten days, and you did not know what good things to eat today. Shu Jiuling recalled the scene at that time: "That dish is well done, let's all say it's good." ”

Everyone fell into deep thought, and they vaguely remembered Sheng Jin's words that day, but they really couldn't remember what they ate that day.

"Fried kidney flowers. A voice came, and Zhang Zhao and the elders all felt that this clear voice was a little unfamiliar. Then they finally discovered the source of the voice, and everyone turned their puzzled eyes to the innermost part of the hall.

"On the tenth day, he made fried kidney flowers. Pang Feiyang, who had been sitting on his back, slowly turned around and said clearly and affirmatively.

**

Pang Feiyang, who was pale and had messy hair, slowly stood up, and said calmly in the eyes of everyone in the Yangxian Hall: "Senior brothers, Feiyang has not given you a salute for more than a year, I am really ashamed. ”

He bowed deeply: "Pang Feiyang will make amends to all the senior brothers, and from now on, I will give you more advice." ”

Sheng Jin was the first to laugh: "They have always bullied me, you turned around, and now there is finally someone younger than me in this house." ”

All the elders knew Pang Feiyang's heart knot, and they all nodded with smiles. Pang Feiyang has been sitting depressed with his back, and every elder in the Yangxian Hall also has sad things, let alone enlightening him.

For more than a month, Zhang Zhao's arrival has added vitality to Yangxian Hall. Not only was the food cooked delicious, but it also made all the elders smile, and Pang Feiyang, who was sitting on his back, was gradually infected by this emotion, and finally took the initiative to join them today.

Pang Feiyang looked at Zhang Zhao again and nodded lightly: "Your name is Zhang Zhao." It's been a hard month for you. ”

Zhang Zhao had always been in awe of the elder sitting on his back, and hurriedly saluted: "I'm not hard, Elder Pang, you are hard." Immediately caused everyone to laugh.

Liu Feng was the oldest in this room, and he was also very emotional when he looked at the scene in front of him: "It's good that we can all think about it, and today we will eat fried kidney flowers at night according to the meaning of Senior Brother Uncle and Senior Brother Pang." ”

Zhang Zhao got up early the next morning, did a Vajra exercise as usual outside the house, and after receiving the last pose, he saw Pang Feiyang standing not far away. He hurriedly saluted: "Elder Pang, why are you here?" ”

Pang Feiyang is in good health but has not come out for more than a year, and this morning he quietly came out for a walk while everyone was asleep. I felt that I had been taken care of by Zhang Zhao for more than a month, and I always wanted to make something in return. Unconsciously walked to Zhang Zhao's residence, and saw Zhang Zhao doing this set of King Kong exercises.
