Chapter 38: Cocoon Transformation (4)

When Xiao Se left Fan Xiang Zhenren's Dan room, he saw Ah Bao squatting on a protruding rock on the shore of the lake, looking at the swarms of carp in the water, and he didn't even hear his approaching footsteps. It wasn't until he stood behind her and reminded her that she came back to her senses.

"So fast?" Ah Bao gestured in surprise, and then looked behind him, but did not see Xiao Xiang's figure, so he cast an inquiring glance at Xiao Se.

Xiao Se stretched his eyebrows and showed a relieved smile: "Senior sister, relax, Senior Brother Chu is no longer in trouble after taking the medicine sent by the Jade Immortal, but his body is weak, so he has not woken up yet." The sister was ordered by the Jade Immortal to stay in the Dan Room to assist Elder Fanxiang in refining the medicine that would solidify the essence and return to the Yuan, and it would come out later. ”

When Bao heard this, the stone that had been hanging in his heart for half a month finally fell to the ground, his eyes were sour for a while, and the corners of his mouth were a little out of control, and he didn't know what expression to make, and finally his lips trembled twice comically .

She crossed Xiao Se again, glanced at the Dan Room in the distance, and saw that the copper-green door was still closed, and her heart was still a little uneasy, so she tried to search down and ask if she could go to visit.

Xiao Se understood what she meant, shook his head, and explained: "Elder Fanxiang has not yet left the customs, because he has just received the medicine from the Jade Immortal, and he must be carefully refined for a period of time, and he cannot be disturbed during the period, so now is not the time to visit. ”

Although he was not approved, at least Chu Zhaoran's life was safe, and that was enough. Po rubbed his moist eyes and nodded towards Xiao Se.

Seeing that she was almost crying with joy, Xiao Se couldn't help but smile and said, "Go back, today's cultivation is over here." With that, he raised his hand and tapped his nose again, but did not say anything, but walked away with a smile.

Ah Bao was a little confused, so he bent down and looked at the water, and saw his reflection in the water, his nose was very conspicuous, a little funny.

The two parted ways in the square in front of the main hall, Xiao Se returned to the disciple's room on the west side of the main peak, and Ah Bao went straight back to the firewood room.

Chu Zhaoran's matter is temporary, and she can also calm down and carefully ask the many questions that have been buried in her heart in front of Gu Aweng.

However, when you step into the kitchen door, you are greeted by several unfamiliar faces. Several disciples who could not be named by Ah Bao were busy working beside the stove, and one of them was busy fiddling with the fish jumping on the chopping board, and when he saw that it was Ah Bao, he immediately showed an expression of amnesty, and hurriedly shouted to her: "Senior sister, save me!" ”

Ah Bao knew that this young man was one of several high-level disciples who had gone down the mountain with Wufang Zhenren to find Chu Zhaoran a few days ago, and he had been indignant and wanted to reason with Wen Huang several times when Wen Huang was "disrespectful" to Wufang Zhenren.

Ah Bao thought he was a short-tempered and difficult to mess with, but now seeing him pressing the fish in one hand and holding a kitchen knife in the other, his face was embarrassed, and he didn't know where to start.

Before she could react, another disciple next to him who was squatting in front of the stove to add firewood gave him a blank look, and said disapprerovingly: "What 'save you'?" I see that you obviously want to take the opportunity to throw all the work you get to your junior sister. After finishing speaking, he turned to Bao: "Don't pay attention to him!" has always been accustomed to five fingers not touching the spring water, and he should also be allowed to taste the hardships of this world. ”

The one who spoke was another disciple who went down the mountain with Wufang Zhenren at that time, and he seemed to have a good relationship with the hot-tempered disciple, who was at the bottom of the mountain at that time, and when the latter repeatedly wanted to ask Wen Huang for an explanation, he always intervened in time to stop him, he was a gentle-tempered and meticulous young man.

Both of them studied under Wufang Zhenren, their cultivation is profound, and their personalities are static and moving, which are very complementary. Although Ah Bao didn't know the names and surnames of the two of them, they were together every time they met on the mountain in the past, so they left a little impression in their hearts.

"Senior sister, but you're looking for Gu Aweng?" Seeing Ah Bao's hurried expression when he entered the door, the disciple who burned the fire said again, "This afternoon, Gu Ah Weng went to find the real person who was in charge of the house, saying that there was an urgent matter at home and had to rush back to deal with it, and I was afraid that he would not be able to come back for ten days and half a month, so the real person in charge of the real family arranged for the disciples to take turns to be responsible for the food of these days when Ah Weng was away." ”

When Bao heard this, he was very surprised.

Something happened at home? Since the first day she met Gu Aweng, she had never heard him mention anyone else in his family, and whenever she asked, he would just reply with something like "I haven't been back for too long, and my feelings have faded" to prevaricate, which once made Ah Bao when he was a child mistakenly think that Gu Aweng jumped out of the crack in the stone.

What is it that would make such a person, who has never said a word to outsiders in this regard, go in such a hurry without warning?

Or was it for some other purpose that he left Shangya, just to hide from others and find this excuse?

Seeing Ah Bao's complicated expression, the disciple who lit the fire thought that she was unwilling to help, so he explained: "This is a matter within my equal reach, and the junior sister doesn't need to interfere, and don't worry about it." Today's practice is hard, so let's go back to our room and rest early. ”

After that, he held the pu fan in his hand again, and slammed it towards the firewood under the stove like Gu Aweng, but he was choked by the flying sparks and the thick smoke rushing in his face.

Seeing this, Ah Bao was a little speechless.

These people usually have a beautiful scenery and a good way to play swords, but when they come to the kitchen, they can't cut the vegetables, can't burn the fire, can't wash the dishes and chopsticks, and fiddling with the kitchen knife is thousands of times clumsier than practicing swordsmanship.

Looking at the appearance of these people in front of him as if they were facing a great enemy, Ah Bao sighed, but decided to help them get out of the sea of suffering first, so he rolled up his sleeves and began to prepare dinner.

When everyone saw it, they all surrounded them as if they had seen a savior, and began to draw gourds like Bao.

"In the past, I only thought that cooking on a fire was not a difficult task, but now that I have experienced it, I know that it is difficult."

A disciple said, and watched in amazement as Bao expertly subdued the dishonest fish, removing scales, removing dirt, cleaning, and pickling, all in one go, with fluent movements and no mud and water, which was breathtaking.

"No wonder Master often says that the Great Dao is hidden in all things, and the smaller the things, the more infinite laws and truths are contained."

The disciple who had just lit the fire sighed and wiped the beads of sweat from his forehead with the back of his hand. The dust on his face that had just been extinguished by the firewood that had just been ignited was now wiped by him like this, as if someone had drawn a gossip map on his face with ink.

"That's right, so if you want to get the Tao as soon as possible, you can come here every day to cook, and it won't take a year and a half to make it happen."

His irascible companion had just been ridiculed by him, and now he finally found an opportunity, and immediately choked back, leaving him speechless, and he didn't know how to refute it for a while.

When everyone heard this, they all pointed to his flower face and laughed together.
