Chapter 15: The God of Food
At the peach meeting, all the immortals gathered, drank and had fun, talked and laughed. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
As the son-in-law of the Jade Emperor, Zuo Xiaoyou rarely got a front position, and sitting on his left and right were the third prince of Nezha and Zhao Gongming, the god of wealth.
These two people are very famous in the Chinese mythological system, especially the third prince of Nezha, as a Chinese, how many people don't know Nezha? Nezha is in the sea, the lotus incarnation, the three heads and six arms, the three magic weapons of the Qiankun circle, the mixed sky and the hot wheels, which are familiar in the hearts of the Chinese people.
Although Nezha can't beat Sun Wukong, Zuo Xiaoyou also admires him very much, and when he saw that Nezha was sitting next to him, he toasted a few more glasses of wine and expressed his long-term admiration. Zuo Xiaoright's attitude also won Nezha's favor, and the conversation was very speculative.
And Zhao Gongming, the God of Wealth, is also a famous immortal, a large number of people think that Zhao Gongming is just an immortal in charge of wealth, but what Zhao Gongming is really powerful is his identity before he became the God of Wealth.
That is the elder brother of Sanxiao Niangniang, a disciple of the Tongtian Sect Master, who is pregnant with a high-grade innate spiritual treasure - a big cow with twenty-four Dinghai Divine Pearls. It's a pity that the battle of the gods was lost by the treasure money, and the twenty-four Dinghai Divine Beads were snatched away by the ancient Buddha of the past Buddha Burning Lamp, and directly let the Burning Lamp become enlightened, but he was killed by Lu Press, and became the god of wealth in the heavenly court.
Originally, Zhao Gongming was named "Golden Dragon Ruyi Zhengyi Dragon Tiger Xuantan Zhenjun", referred to as "Xuantan Zhenjun", also known as "Xuantan Marshal". Led the four immortals of "Zhaobao Tianzun Xiao Sheng", "Nazhen Tianzun Cao Bao", "Fortune Messenger Chen Jiugong", and "Lishi Immortal Official Yao Shaosi", and the four immortals were dedicated to welcoming auspicious blessings and businessmen.
Because Zhao Gongming's subordinates are four gods in charge of wealth, they are "Zhaobao", "Nazhen", "Zhaocai" and "Lishi", so they become the God of Wealth. Later, many people would refer to Zhao Gongming and his four subordinates as the God of Wealth on the Five Paths, hoping that they could bring wealth to believers in the five directions of East, South, West, North and Central!
To put it simply, Zhao Gongming, who did not have twenty-four Dinghai Divine Beads, suddenly dropped a few grades, and was demoted from a saint disciple who was originally higher than Heavenly Court to the Minister of Finance of Heavenly Court, so Zhao Gongming was actually very aggrieved in his heart, but after God became an immortal, he found that his small life was also leisurely, so he gradually restrained his anger and retired with peace of mind.
When Zuo Xiaoyou communicated with Zhao Gongming, he also deliberately complimented him a few words, admiring his past achievements very much, but also made Zhao Gongming quite useful, and then exchanged business cards, hoping to keep in touch often.
Zuo Xiaoyou is very happy, the four most important things for a cultivator are the wealth of the law, wealth comes first, and with wealth can you buy all kinds of cultivation resources, so wealth is very important to a cultivator. When Zhao Gongming is in charge of the distribution of wealth in the world today, Zuo Xiaoyou hooked up with this line today, and his fortune in the future will rise and rise, which will be of great help to the future enlightenment.
After the banquet began, the fairies of the Heavenly Court carried trays one after another, and served the delicacies cooked in advance to the table of the immortals.
In the past three hundred years, although Zuo Xiaoyou has passed on the recipes and given a copy to his father-in-law and mother-in-law, but cooking really requires talent.
The last thing that a son-in-law can offend is the mother-in-law, and the mother-in-law speaks, and there is no possibility of refusal at all. But if the peach will be made on the same day, it will definitely be too late, so after Zuo Xiaoyou went to the peach orchard yesterday to pick peaches, he was busy in the kitchen all night, and finally made the dishes for entertaining the immortals this time with quality and quantity.
The dishes were stored in mustard bags and waited for the feast to begin.
The way of eating in the heavenly court is different from that of modern times, modern Huaxia is all sitting around a table to eat, but the way of eating in the heavenly court is a separate table for each person, which is the so-called "case".
The idiom 'slapping the case is amazing', which means slapping the table and applauding, these immortals in the heavenly court use a single case, and each immortal eats and drinks a certain amount, no one is more, no one is no less, and it is also hygienic.
Although it is very lively for people to sit around and eat together, everyone uses chopsticks to pick up vegetables, and they will always eat other people's saliva, which is still not very hygienic. However, sitting together to eat can bring the relationship closer, the closer the people are, the more they want to be like this, if it is a big New Year, each family member has a small table, and the meal is lined up, it is not the New Year at all, but a meeting.
In this situation, in fact, it can only show that the hierarchy of the heavenly court is strict, and it would be good if the superior leaders could give you a table, just eat with gratitude, don't think too much.
The table is quite spacious, and the left and right are prepared with two dishes, one soup and one staple food. The two dishes are a hot dish and a cold dish, the hot dish is mushroom tofu, and the cold dish is mixed with vegetarian mix; One soup is three fresh soups; One staple food is dumplings that people all over the world love.
On these four dishes, the voice of the immortals talking instantly lowered, and their eyes stared at the delicacies on the table with light, even if the beautiful fairies around them were pouring wine for them, they didn't pay attention to it at all, as if the whole world was only left with these two dishes, one soup and one staple food on the table.
The Queen Mother was very happy when she saw the reaction of the immortals, her son-in-law really gave herself a long face, in the past, these immortals only cared about watching singing and dancing, and they didn't care much about eating and drinking, but this year it was different.
Looking at the direction of Zuo Xiaoyou, the Queen Mother gave her son-in-law an appreciative look, and then said a few words to the Jade Emperor beside her, and the Jade Emperor nodded again and again, quite agreeing.
"Zhongqing......" The Jade Emperor picked up the wine glass, and as soon as Fang opened his mouth, the immortals immediately raised their heads and listened respectfully.
The Jade Emperor smiled and said: "Today is the annual Pan Tao Conference, and the secretaries and widows will give a cup to the mother, okay?" ”
"That's how it should be." The immortals immediately raised their glasses and toasted to the Queen Mother together: "I wish the mother a long and blessed life." ”
The Queen Mother was very happy and raised her glass: "Thank you all the families, please." ”
"Please!"
After drinking a glass of wine, the Jade Emperor clapped his hands, and immediately a fairy walked into the arena and played music and danced.
It was the first time for Zuo Xiaoyou to see the song and dance of the fairy, and it was indeed the fairy dance, which was wonderful and intoxicating.
The immortals were accustomed to seeing this scene, and in comparison, the food in front of them was more attractive to them. At this time, almost all the immortals were fighting with chopsticks and food, and few people enjoyed singing and dancing. Zuo Xiaoyou is one of the exceptions, the food is made by himself, it's nothing, but this song and dance can only be seen once in 365 years, and the opportunity is rare, so he has to see enough books.
So there was a strange scene in the Yao Pond, one by one the fairies who were all over the country and the city were singing and dancing in the field, but the immortals were immersed in competing with the food, only Zuo Xiaoyou stared at the performance of more than a dozen fairies, full of enjoyment.
The fairies saw that the immortals didn't look at themselves at all, and they were originally a little dissatisfied, but when they saw that there was still a person in the audience who was still watching their performance, and this person was still the son-in-law of the Jade Emperor, and a heroic young man, they couldn't help but perk up, scratching their heads and making gestures, showing their graceful figures and beautiful dancing postures to Zuo Xiaoyou, so that Zuo Xiaoyou was fascinated and admired.
At the end of a song and dance, these fairies exited in turn, but when they exited, they all glanced at Zuo Xiaoyou, and saw that Zuo Xiaoyou was also watching them, and couldn't help but be happy in their hearts, and there was a little more softness in their footsteps.
The performances were one after another, without interruption, but the food on the table was limited, and the immortals ate a little disregard for the image, so soon after, the three plates and one bowl on the table basically became clean, as if they had been washed, and the immortals finally raised their heads and stared at Zuo Xiaoright with unfinished eyes.
Why staring at him? Because only the food on his table was basically untouched.
Seeing that he had become the 'thorn in the eye' of the immortals, his body shook and his left and right bodies shook. Fortunately, Zhen Yuanzi and Taishang Laojun, the older generation with extremely high status didn't look at him for face, otherwise he would have to scare him.
Left and right coughed dryly, and flicked the things in front of him left and right. Nezha and Zhao Gongming were suddenly pleasantly surprised, both of them were relatively fast eaters, and the plates and bowls in front of them had already been cleaned and slippery, and the righteousness was still unfinished! I didn't expect Zuo Xiaoyou to be so high-spirited and give them his own food.
Brother Zuo is really righteous, I have made this friend!
Nezha and Zhao Gongming thought so, and when they saw the other immortals staring at Zuo Xiaoyou with 'bad intentions', they immediately released their momentum and glanced at them viciously. All the immortals are people who want to save face, and they can't help but be embarrassed when they are so glanced at by Nezha and Zhao Gongming, and their eyes are difficult to move away from Zuo Xiaoyou and turn to the fairies in the field.
“……”
The Jade Emperor and the Queen Mother looked at this scene speechlessly, and couldn't help but sigh that their son-in-law's cooking skills were really good, and even the gods couldn't resist it.
"Everyone Aiqing......" The Jade Emperor ate the last dumpling on his plate, drank a sip of soup to moisten his throat, and said, "Is today's food still appetizing?" ”
"Delicious food."
"One of a kind."
"Great!"
“+1。”
“+10086……”
None of the immortals present were not conquered by the food in front of them, and they praised each other, and they were embarrassed to hear it.
"Hehe......" The Jade Emperor stroked his beard and smiled, staring at the Queen Mother and bowing his head slightly.
"In this way, since the establishment of the Heavenly Court, although there are several imperial chefs in the imperial dining room, the cooking skills are only general, and they are not worthy of the position of the immortal official of the Heavenly Court. Today, the left small right cooking skills are unparalleled, and the cooking of meals has been praised by the immortals, and the widow wants to set up the post of "food god", which is assumed by the left and right, what do you think? ”
God of Food!?
Left and right were stunned.
