Chapter 81: It's all about practice
"What kind of gift?"
"You'll find out at night." Feng Yan laughed in a low voice.
"Sister, who did you learn from this seller, I have hung my appetite several times today!"
Feng Yan stretched out her hand to her sister, "Then do you agree?" ”
Feng Xiaoqi Nunu mouthed and did not pick it up immediately.
She thought about it for a while with both hands in her arms - my sister had never drawn a pie in this kind of thing before.
Since you say that there are gifts, you still say that there are gifts in such a matter, it must be a good thing.
Besides, it's a bit too risky to sneak out on the first night when you're here......
"Okay." Feng Xiaoqi shook Feng Yan's hand hard, "That word is a certainty, I'll wait tonight to see what Sister brings back to me." ”
……
After dusk, the Tianji Palace was lit up, and the carriages and horses of the ceremonial officials finally came to the mountain gate of Sanchen Peak.
Sanchen is the sun, moon and stars. This peak is extremely high, extremely dangerous, make people feel that if they stand at the highest point of the peak, they can reach out and meet the sun, moon and stars, and Sanchen Peak is also named because of it.
The Tianji Palace was much bigger than Feng Xiaoqi had imagined, and before she actually came here, she had always thought that it was just a small temple built on a mountain—maybe a little bigger than the previous mountain temple.
However, what she didn't expect was that Tianji Palace was just a general term - on the upper peak of Sanchen Peak, there were countless pavilions built along the mountain at a glance.
From a distance, the glazed tiles of the high temple glow with golden sunset streamers, dazzling and brilliant.
I'm going to live in such a fairyland-like place tonight.
In the face of this overwhelming momentum, Feng Xiaoqi's eyes were a little hot, as if he saw the sea of clouds for the first time in his life, saw the sunrise, and saw all the grand and magnificent things in this world, which made people feel their insignificance.
"Xiao Qi," Feng Yan stopped on the mountain steps and turned around, beckoning to her, "Hurry up." ”
Feng Xiaoqi lowered his head a little reluctantly to look at the road, then took three steps and made two steps, and ran behind Feng Yan several steps in a row.
In fact, the distance from the mountain temple in the afternoon to here is not too far, if you ride a fast horse, it may only take an hour to go back and forth, or even shorter. However, because the ceremonial officer carried a number of ritual weapons with his bare hands and rested several times on the way, the speed of the whole procession can be described as a turtle's journey.
After a whole day in the carriage, I felt like my bones were about to fall apart.
The only thing to be thankful for is that the carriage has followed the ramp up the mountain, after all, it has covered most of the distance from the foot of the mountain to here, and all that is left is a hundred or so stone steps.
"Heavenly Master," Feng Yan looked at Du Weifeng, "Is there anything I need to do tonight?" ”
Du mocked the limelight and didn't reply, "No, I'll talk about it tomorrow, I have other things to do tonight." ”
Feng Xiaoqi heard that his tone was not as ostentatious as during the day, but a little depressed, and couldn't help but be curious, "What is Heavenly Master going to be busy with tonight?" ”
"Some bits and pieces," Du Weifeng scratched his scalp that was about to be topped, "It's not easy to be a heavenly master." ”
Feng Yan lowered her eyes and smiled, "At this time, Heavenly Master is still in the mood to be busy with trivial matters?" ”
Du Weifeng chuckled a few times and laughed, "Don't delay, you see that you couple went up the mountain today, didn't you delay the trouble of going to the mountain temple to find other people's immortals." ”
"I haven't found it yet." Feng Yan said, "If the Heavenly Master is busy tonight and still has time, would you like to go and have a look with us?" ”
"No, no." Du mocked the wind and waved his hand, "I never cause myself this kind of trouble, I will sow a cause today, who knows what fruit he will bear in the future, I am - the red stripes come and go without worrying." ”
The last sentence, Du Weifeng sang in a playful voice, his timbre was extremely bright, and his voice penetrated the faint mist in the twilight of the mountains and forests, and even startled a few birds in the distance.
Only Feng Xiaoqi realized it later, "Sister, you ...... When I went to find that altar immortal tonight, I was going to find trouble with him? ”
"yes, because he stole something from Lord Wei, we have to go and get it back." Feng Yan looked at Xiao Qi, smiled and made a silent gesture, "This is a natural thing, not looking for trouble." ”
“…… So what did he steal? ”
Feng Xiaoqi asked, and then reacted-ah, could it be the sword?
However, looking at Wei Xingzhen's waist again, the sword was obviously hanging there in a good manner.
Xiao Qi waited for a long time, and didn't wait for Feng Yan's answer.
She was a little helpless, "Sister, won't you wait until you come back in the evening to tell me......"
Feng Yan smiled, "Hmm." ”
……
After settling down, the food in Tianji Palace completely surprised Feng Xiaoqi.
She couldn't have imagined that in such a fairy-like palace, there was no oil or water at all for the dinner at night.
The rice for dinner was raw, the greens were a little bitter after the heat, and all the dishes didn't seem to have any salt - except for a small plate of pickled radish on the edge, Feng Xiaoqi only tasted a small bite, which was so salty that the root of her tongue straightened, and she choked on the spot with a cough.
However, Feng Yan beside him, Du Weifeng and Wei Xingzhen opposite, all sat in front of their own food tables and ate seriously.
Feng Xiaoqi looked a little skeptical of life.
She secretly glanced at the food on Feng Yan's small table, judging from the quality of the dishes, the food her sister ate was obviously the same as her own.
- If you knew this, you should have brought a small can of tempeh sauce with you when you came out of the house today.
It's not nutritious, but at least it's enough to eat.
Just as Feng Xiaoqiqi was thinking about it, the other three quickly finished eating.
The young monks seemed to be stuck in time and walked in at this point, and they couldn't help but come up and take everything away, including the dishes that Xiao Qi had eaten less than halfway through.
"Huh? Wait, you guys—"
The young monks ignored it, and walked away with the dishes without squinting or changing their faces.
Feng Xiaoqi looked at their backs with a puzzled expression—she was half-full at the moment, but if she ate such a little thing, she would definitely be hungry at night.
"Why did they come up and grab my bowl?" Feng Xiaoqi looked at Du Weifeng, "Heavenly Master, you don't care!" ”
Du Weifeng wiped his mouth with the thick square handkerchief in his hand, "How to say, eating is also a practice." ”
“…… Practice? Feng Xiaoqi looked stunned, "Do you eat this kind of thing every day?" ”
"Tianji Palace is indeed like this, because the first place that newcomers enter is always the back kitchen, and when they almost find a little cooking feeling, they should be transferred to another place," Du mocked up and said with a smile, "So ......"
"No, how the hell did you swallow it?" Feng Xiaoqi looked at his sister, "That rice ...... That Mi Yan gave me a toothache—"
"The Ping Demon Department is also about the same rule, Xiao Qi." Feng Yan said softly.
"What." Feng Xiaoqi choked again.
"Otherwise, why did Gorou run home by all means...... Do you think he's been away from home for too long and misses his parents? ”
Xiao Qi was petrified on the spot when he heard it.
"But Si Tiantai's food has always been very good," Feng Yan said at the right time, "Their small kitchen is a fight with His Majesty's imperial dining room." If you can get up tomorrow morning, you can ask the Heavenly Master to send someone to take you there to eat and see, all kinds of morning tea noodles - there are more than 20 kinds of rice porridge alone. ”
"No...... No need. Feng Xiaoqi gritted his teeth, "...... I'm just new and I'm not used to it. ”
On the side, Du Weifeng couldn't help but laugh.
Footsteps were heard outside, and everyone looked up for a moment, and a strange monk walked in with a gentle step.
"Heavenly Master," the man said softly, "the Dali Temple has already escorted people to the mountain gate." ”
Du Weifeng smiled on his face, and he braced his shoulders a little boredly, "Okay, it's time to work." ”
"Who is here?" Feng Yan asked.
"You are also acquaintances," Du mocked with a smile, "here is the county monarch who was arrested in the Wei Mansion last time. ”
"Cen Lingju?" Feng Xiaoqi was shocked, "What is she doing here?" ”
"The eldest princess petitioned His Majesty overnight, asking the county monarch to go to the Tianji Palace to face the wall and think for half a year, what can this Heavenly Master do?" Du Shifeng shrugged, "There is no way." ”
