Chapter 1402: Shadow
Shushan Xianfeng, fire workshop
As the department responsible for the food of the 30,000 disciples of the outer sect, there are more than 6,000 disciples of the outer sect who are busy working in this huge venue.
Noise, shouting, cutting piers and even the sound of pots and pans colliding are all lively and symphonic in this room.
Stretching out his hand to wipe off the sweat on his head, Zhao Lianshan shouted to the two cooks: "Quickly cut the vegetables and yard them, there is less than half an hour before the start of the meal, if you delay the time to start the meal, be careful of Lao Zhao's iron spoon." ”
As one of the two hundred main stove masters in the fire workshop, Zhao Lianshan is very popular, although he likes to scold and scold, but he treats people boldly, and he has no arrogance at all.
And it is rumored throughout the fire workshop that Zhao Lianshan's performance has been seen by the sect, and it is estimated that he will soon be promoted to one of the stewards of the fire workshop.
The two cooks who were called by Zhao Lianshan were still picking the vegetable leaves slowly and leisurely, but after hearing Lao Zhao's call, the two hurriedly responded and sped up the speed in their hands.
Holding a clean cotton cloth to wipe his iron spoon, Zhao Lianshan hummed a little song and glanced around, and the main stove began to get busy.
"In a few days, I'm afraid I won't be able to see this face. ”
The tone was a little regretful, but Zhao Lianshan's face had a little nostalgic expression.
The work of the fire workshop is complicated and tiring, especially the master of the main stove, which is almost the most tiring work in the entire fire workshop, although the salary is relatively high.
But for Zhao Lianshan, who is already not young, the smoky fire roasting for nearly three hours a day is already a little unbearable.
This time, Zhao Lianshan was able to be the manager of the fire workshop, and Zhao Lianshan himself also made a lot of effort, and almost invested half of his life savings into it.
The more I thought about it, the more beautiful it became, and the corners of Zhao Lianshan's mouth subconsciously put a smile on it.
"Master Zhao, everything is ready. With the prepared side dishes, the assistant chef Xiao Li staggered to Zhao Lianshan's side.
"Master Zhao, Master Zhao?" shouted twice and saw that Zhao Lianshan did not react, Xiao Li pulled Zhao Lianshan's arm suspiciously.
"Uh, God, it's okay, it's okay. Being pulled by Xiao Li, a wisp of black light in the depths of Zhao Lianshan's pupils suddenly disappeared without a trace, and the whole person came back to his senses.
"Oh, the dishes are ready for you. Seeing that Zhao Lianshan's face was the same, Xiao Li nodded, and then walked aside and continued to get busy with other things.
Shaking his head, Zhao Lianshan felt a little numb on the top of his head, but this feeling was fleeting, and he just felt an illusion.
"Let's get started. "As the head of the workshop was struck, a golden gong was sounded.
Under all the main stoves, red and yellow flames rose and ignited, and the sound of hot oil accompanied by the white smoke of the fire rose.
......
At night, under the six-wheeled beige moon wheel, Zhao Lianshan, who took a hot bath, held his towel in one hand and a cucumber in the other, eating while walking.
Back in the room, Zhao Lianshan lit the spiritual lamp, the pale yellow light lit up, and a man dressed in a black robe, with broad shoulders and hands behind his back stood silently in the room.
"You...... How did you get in?"
Seeing that there was a stranger in his room, Zhao Lianshan was surprised at first, and then hurriedly asked.
"A Shu Mountain almost cut off my connection with the clone Black Lotus. This white eyebrow is really a bit of a trick. Looking down at a deep sword mark on the palm of his hand, the Black Lotus of the World Destroying closed his palm stupidly.
Bai Mei's management of Shushan Xianfeng has reached the point of reaching its peak.
This kind of operation allows Shushan to have a strong external defense, but also has a terrible internal defense extreme.
The powerful defense mechanism makes the connection between the Black Lotus and its own shadow to the extreme, and it can only barely sense its existence, but cannot be specifically controlled.
In desperation, the Black Lotus of the World Destroying could only separate a wisp of primordial spirit, take the risk of infiltrating the Shushan Sword Sect, and personally control these shadows.
Obviously, although the infiltration process did not go well, fortunately it did not fall short.
Although he was only a little monk who had barely entered the Dao, Zhao Lianshan could still feel the terrifying aura coming from the tall man in front of him from time to time.
Quietly touched the doorknob, and Zhao Lianshan moved at the foot of the mountain, and was about to grab the door.
"Okay, there's not much time, we have to hurry. With a move in his eyes, Zhao Lianshan, who had already opened the door through a gap, was stunned, and closed the door tightly again.
Walking in front of Zhao Lianshan, the Black Lotus of the World Destroying held a bead that was as black as ink and with layers of faint clouds and mist wrapped around its surface, and broke Zhao Lianshan's mouth and let him swallow it.
Swallowing the black beads, Zhao Lianshan's eyes immediately became pitch black as ink, and he couldn't see a single white.
"The lotus seed that envelops the aura of the Demon Ancestor, who can detect it except for the saint. ”
After taking the lotus seeds, Zhao Liansheng fell into a coma.
At the same time, among the four outer doors in Shushan similar to the Fire Workshop, there was a person who was about to be promoted to the middle level, and he suffered the same thing as Zhao Liansheng.
They are all the shadows that the Black Lotus has long been planted in Shushan, but because the defense system of Shushan is too meticulous.
As a result, the Black Lotus had to go there in person and enter the orders of what he was about to do to these shadows.
After completing the arrangement, the Black Lotus of the World Destroying quietly turned into a wisp of black smoke and dissipated, and now he only had to wait for the news to come......
......
In the early morning of the day, Zhao Liansheng, who woke up, rubbed his sleepy eyes and got up from the bed.
After washing, dressing, and greeting a few old colleagues as usual, he swept a small Qiankun bag hanging from his waist and walked to a mountain road away from the fire workshop.
......
"Someone is looking out for me?"
At the peak of the Shushan Sect Master, the elder in charge of the internal guard handed a volume of spiritual text to Bai Mei, and the content on it recorded the information of the five people in detail, and next to each piece of information, there was also a portrait of himself.
"These five people are all stewards or elders of the outer gate, and their positions are not high. In the past few days, they have been secretly inquiring about the sect master's whereabouts through their own channels.
However, the subordinates have applied for Haotian Mirror to illuminate them, but there is no abnormality. "The report to Bai Mei was a middle-aged man with a tall and thin body and round eyes, who spoke with a very nasal voice.
"In other words, these five people just wanted to listen to my heart completely spontaneously, and they were not assigned and manipulated by anyone?" Bai Mei asked, looking at the five ordinary people on the spiritual text.
"So far, that's true. Moreover, there is nothing abnormal in the daily actions of these five people, if it is not monitored by the magic spirit, it is almost impossible for us to find out that the five of them are actually doing the same thing again. The tall and thin elder also looked puzzled.
After all, the people who can enter the Shu Mountain Immortal Peak Sect have all been strictly screened and reviewed.
Moreover, these five people have all been irradiated by the light of the Haotian Mirror, and there is no abnormality, the only doubt is why the five of them suddenly collected the whereabouts of their sect master at the same time.
In order to avoid startling the snake, although the anomalies of these five people were discovered, they were not caught.
Everything is waiting for Bai Mei's decision.
