Chapter 26: Like an Old Man (1)
Hearing my words, Bai Feizhen was stunned again, and the eyes that looked at me were even more incredulous.
I was stared at by him, and asked strangely, "Sect Master Bai, what's wrong with you?" ”
Bai Feizhen suddenly came back to his senses, and said consciously: "It's nothing...... Just thinking about some of the past. ”
He gave me the food I wanted to eat, and in a short time the kitchen man returned, not with me the food I wanted to eat, but with a fat cook.
The cook said, the dishes I am talking about, among which the steamed jade tender white fish, seem to be the dishes of the imperial court, only the kind of princes and generals can make it, he has never even seen it in his life, let alone made it.
I felt a little regretful, and at the same time very strange, I felt that this cook was lying and lazy, after all, these dishes were made for me by my senior brother before.
He said that it was a meal that I used to like to eat, and although I didn't have any impression of it when I first woke up, I did like it, so I guess I liked it.
I thought I couldn't eat it, but Bai Feizhen sat up straight and replied lightly: "The so-called steamed jade tender white fish, the method is actually very simple, that is, the selection of materials is more complicated, to choose the white fish that has been artificially cultivated for three months, the fish meat at this time is delicious, with a sweet taste, and there is no fishy smell, the fish is sliced, soaked in salt wine, the so-called jade ......"
He smiled a little and said, "It's just the leaves of the third layer of cabbage, after steaming the white fish, put it in the leaves of the cabbage, and dip it in the pre-prepared sauce." ”
Seeing that what he said was the Dao, I couldn't help but widen my eyes, this Sect Master of the Heavenly Heng Dao Sect, could it be that he was still a cook before?
However, I found it strange that I had never known that this dish was so complicated to make, and that someone who was afraid of trouble like my brother would be willing to make it for me.
Seeing that my eyes were staring at him all the time, Bai Fei was really a little uncomfortable, and asked, "Why is the girl looking down?" But what's wrong with what I'm talking about? ”
I hurriedly shook my head and replied, "I thought that the sect master of the Tianheng Dao Sect was busy with affairs, but I didn't expect that he was also very interested in cooking. ”
Bai Feizhen smiled bitterly and replied: "Many years ago, when I was still a little minion of the Tianheng Dao Sect, when I went out to do errands with people, that person called this dish in the restaurant, and the people in the restaurant didn't know how to make the dish at that time. ”
I asked, "So, the person told you about this dish?" ”
Bai Feizhen shook her head again: "She has always been afraid of trouble, knowing that people won't do it, she won't embarrass others, how can she have the patience to tell people this?" ”
Regarding the recipe of this dish, since it was not said by that person, then, it was Bai Feizhen who went to check it himself.
That person's status in Bai Feizhen's mind must be very important, and the way he looked for this dish should be to make it for her to taste when he wants to see her again.
However, hearing my question, Bai Feizhen was silent for a moment, but shook his head again: "At that time, although I went on the same road with that person and went to do the same thing, in fact, I was not very familiar with it, there was a dislike between Tianheng Dao Sect and her master, and there was little contact between the two factions, even in private, and after that thing was done, I don't know if I could see her in the future......
In that case, since you want to learn the recipe of this dish?
I don't understand, I don't think I'm a boring person.
He was silent again for a long time before he said, "About ...... I guess I want to know everything about her. ”
I wasn't interested in other people's privacy, and I didn't want to get into their inner secrets, but it was clearly about me.
So, he asked tentatively: "But I don't know if this person is the Miss Xu that the sect master just said?" ”
Bai Fei really didn't speak, and I asked again: "It must be a very special girl who can make the sect master so obsessed." ”
Bai Feizhen was silent for a long time before he spoke again: "That person's name, in the rivers and lakes today, no one must know it, one of the seven sons of the Yuxu Kunlun Sect, Xu Jingrong, the owner of the Tianshu Sword. ”
When I heard these three words, my heart shook again.
is indeed a very special girl, more than ten years ago, on the top of Kunlun Mountain, a sword cut off the gate of heaven, stopped Bai Feizhen from soaring, and also made herself die, also called Xu Jingrong.
But if this Xu Jingrong is the Xu Jingrong in Bai Feizhen's mouth, then Bai Jingzhen is too stupid.
After years of practice, soaring to the Tao, this is the dream of many immortal cultivators, if others are cut off from the immortal path, I am afraid that the culprit will be remembered for several lifetimes, and they will not give up if they do not break their bones and ashes.
But what he can't forget now, in my opinion, is only the word 'lovesickness'.
I asked him: "The girl Xu that the sect master said in his mouth is the one who cut the gate of heaven with a sword on the top of Kunlun Mountain?" ”
Bai Feizhen was stunned, and then smiled astringently: "Why, is the memory of the world about her limited to this now?" ”
He turned around and turned his back to me, and his dark figure made people feel a kind of momentum swallowing thousands of miles of mountains and rivers: "But I still remember that she once single-handedly broke into the main altar of the Posa Sect, destroyed the magic miasma mechanism arranged by the cult demons in the poisonous forest, and saved the lives of many people in the Tianheng Dao Sect and various factions......
Speaking of things about himself, he lowered his head and his tone darkened: "In the whole world, there are few people in the world who can cut off the Heavenly Gate with one sword, except for her." ”
I think that Bai Fei may really be mad, obviously what Xu Jingrong cut off with a sword is his path to becoming an immortal, but in his eyes, it seems to be a kind of glory.
I asked, "The sect master probably likes that girl, right?" ”
Bai Fei really seemed to be frightened by my question, and was stunned for a moment before saying, "No." ”
After a pause, as if emphasized, he said again: "No." ”
Probably because he didn't want to be seen as weak-hearted, he put up his shelf again and resumed his indifferent expression: "Although this sect and her have had various entanglements in the past, they are not familiar with each other in fact. ”
Since you don't like it, since you're not familiar with it, why don't you complain, why miss it?
I asked Bai Feizhen: "Does the sect master blame her?" Hate her? ”
For this question, Bai Fei was really a little dodgy, took two steps forward, and then replied in a panic: "There is nothing to complain about, there is nothing to hate, I don't want to become an immortal, let alone ......"
He paused, and muttered, "She was kind to me." ”
Xu Jingrong's true kindness to Bai Peng is actually quite simple, so simple that it can't even be called kindness.
The Bai family used to be a native of Nanfu, but coincidentally, his ancestor was the domestic slave of the little marquis Li Dongyang's family, who was expelled from the house because of some family rules, and finally came to the Northern Dynasty.
has followed many masters, including Cao Huan, so in the early years, when Bai Feizhen was not the sect master of Tianheng Dao Sect, he walked on the rivers and lakes and was often ridiculed as a 'three-surname house slave'.
At that time, Bai Fei Zhen was ordered by Cao Huan to go to meet the people of various sects, including the people of the Yuxu Kunlun Sect, and there were people from other sects who knew Bai Feizhen's origin, and secretly laughed at him for the matter of 'three family slaves', these words fell on Bai Feizhen's ears, and he naturally dared to be angry and did not dare to speak, after all, he was still a small shrimp of Tianheng Dao Sect at that time, and he could only endure humiliation and burden, even if he heard these words, he pretended not to hear them.
But Xu Jingrong is different.
Xu Jingrong's uncle is a famous general of Zhenguo in the Northern Dynasty, and the Shimen is the Yuxu Kunlun Gate that is regarded as a holy place by immortal cultivators.
Compared with Xu Jingrong, Bai Feizhen at that time had a humble identity, more like a mouse hidden in the dark, who could only struggle to survive and live a difficult life in the ridicule and ridicule of everyone.
Hearing the nonsense of those people, Xu Jingrong was the first and the only one who couldn't look at Bai Feizhen.
Thanks to Xu Jingrong, Bai Feizhen's life during that time became a little better, not to mention, in the process of performing the mission, the girl from Kunlun Gate always rushed into battle to rescue people including Bai Feizhen in danger, those things, a long time ago, and in Xu Jingrong's eyes, it shouldn't be a big deal, even she doesn't remember herself, but Bai Feizhen remembers.
Senior brother once said, in this world, it is always better to give charcoal in the snow than icing on the cake, for a person who has nothing to do when he is full, you give him a steamed bun, he may have to beat you, feel that you are humiliating him, but if you give this steamed bun to a beggar on the street who is about to starve to death, maybe he will remember your lifelong kindness, and Bai Fei's real situation is the latter.
Just a few simple words, just in times of danger, he blocked a few dangers for him, and he regarded Xu Jingrong as different.
Even if Xu Jingrong later cut off his path to becoming an immortal and got into trouble with him to the point where you can't live or die, he never forgot it.
I was a little surprised, firstly, I was surprised that there were still these pasts between Bai Feizhen and Xu Jingrong, and secondly, I was surprised that Bai Feizhen had no reservations about me, and even told me that their family used to be domestic slaves.
I asked Bai Jinzhen, since Xu Jingrong had so many dealings with him and had helped him, why did the two get into trouble to that point later, Xu Jingrong would rather die without a complete corpse, but also cut off the gate of heaven and cut off his path to becoming an immortal.
Bai Feizhen looked embarrassed and hesitated for a long time before stammering and perfunctory to me, saying that there was some misunderstanding between them.
The so-called misunderstanding, if it can't be solved, it will become a mortal enemy.
I think that the past of Xu Jingrong and Bai Feizhen should not be as simple as he said.
