CHAPTER XVII
My hand that was about to knock on the head of the little ghost stopped in mid-air awkwardly, only to feel that everyone was looking at me, I turned my back to the direction of Canghuan, and I didn't dare to make a move for a long time.
"Hahaha, it turned out that the Ninth Highness has come down, and the God of Food has a big face!
An old fairy with white hair and a fairy-looking demeanor stood up first and greeted the new guest.
Immediately after that, everyone turned on the compliment mode.
I looked around like a thief to make sure that Xianle was not stopping for me, and then I knocked my hand hanging in mid-air on the little ghost's head.
What the hell is it that I didn't make a fuss for a long time because I was too loud, it really scared me to death.
"Hey, what are you doing!"
The imp rubbed his head, quite dissatisfied with my behavior.
I didn't pay attention to him, but followed the voice of the immortals, and saw a man in white walking into the banquet.
How do you describe this "Nine Highnesses" in everyone's mouth? I can only say that his appearance is no longer something that ordinary sayings can decorate.
His bearing is an ethereal beauty, even in the face of many compliments and hustle and bustle, he is not contaminated with the slightest vulgarity.
As the saying goes, "out of the mud without staining", it is people like him.
Canghuan is good-looking, with some sense of dignity, which makes people feel that he is the protagonist in the world when they look at it, and when he faces me, he is very gentle, giving people a feeling of spring breeze, and people can't help but want to get closer.
But these Nine Highnesses give me a sense of distance that is beyond reach, as if he has left the world and is about to ride the wind in the next moment, which is so elegant and holy.
He walked to the banquet and nodded slightly at Cang Huan, who also smiled. It is worth mentioning that the woman beside Cang Huan only nodded to him, and did not have the respect of others.
His Highness had greeted everyone and was about to walk towards his seat.
But I only heard a voice from behind: "Your Highness!"
I followed the prestige, only to see another man in white fluttering in his clothes, he was also slender, and his face was like a knife and an axe, with a three-dimensional sense of toughness.
Could it be that all these beautiful men ate it? Why did they rush to the feast of the god of food one by one?
His Royal Highness the Ninth turned around, bowed slightly, saluted the man, and said, "Fellow Daoist." ”
The man also returned the salute and arched his hand and said, "Your Highness." ”
I looked at the two of them looking at each other, and for no reason, I thought, isn't this the posture of husband and wife worshipping each other?
"Oh, why is he here! The passing year is not good, it is really unfavorable, I knew that I would not have come to stir up this feast. ”
I was staring at the two men, trying to see more clues, but I heard the whispering of a little ghost in my ear.
"You little ghost, what are you muttering alone?"
I looked at the weird-looking little ghost, I felt that he was a little chattering, I couldn't help but probe the root of his ear, listen to Jimo said, see if a person has a fever, touch this place is the most accurate, last time I touched Canghuan's forehead, I didn't touch anything, I really didn't listen to Jimo's words, and suffered in front of me.
"It's nothing, it's nothing, let's settle down, hurry up and leave after eating. ”
The little ghost took my hand away and lowered his head, looking like an ostrich, for fear of being seen.
I blinked, knowing that I couldn't ask anything from the little ghost's mouth, so I stopped paying attention to him and looked at the center again.
Later, the man in white arched his hand at Cang Huan, and shouted to the woman beside him: "Senior sister!"
The woman nodded with a smile and replied, "Senior brother." ”
Seeing this scene, I blinked my eyes vigorously and looked at the little ghost next to me, could he have anything to do with these two?
It's just that this junior brother and sister shouted so affectionately, who are they from?
Taizu!
These two words suddenly broke into my mind, and I can be on an equal footing with Cang Huan and the Nine Highnesses of the Heavenly Emperor's family, I am afraid that only the nine personal disciples of the mysterious Taizu are qualified.
I looked at the little ghost again, he was wearing a robe, and he was able to take out a talisman like an invisibility talisman, just to eat and drink, thinking about it this way, his identity must be very not simple!
Although I was extremely curious about the identity of the little ghost, I didn't force him to ask him, and if I accidentally made a big noise, I couldn't pull this face.
He and I sat obediently in the same place, not drinking wine or eating pastries, and resting our hands on our knees as if we were private school students in a notebook.
After a while, the banquet became lively again, and the fairy music was played again, and the graceful maids began to serve the dishes with their trays, although this was not the main course, but they could smell a refreshing fragrance from afar.
As soon as the dish was served, I took a closer look, and the brilliance and color matched very well, and just looking at it made people's fingers move.
I couldn't help but pick up a piece of meat and put it in my mouth, it was indescribable, I almost bit my tongue off!
I secretly glanced at others, and sure enough, everyone was intoxicated by this delicious food, and even the voice of rushing to have a relationship with Cang Huan and His Royal Highness Nine stopped.
At the beginning of this feast, the whole audience was so quiet that you could hear a needle falling on the ground, and there was no noisy and extraordinary scene like other banquets.
I have to admit that the cooking skills of this god of food are really amazing, and everyone has no energy to do anything else just to taste these dishes.
As for swallowing saliva, or chewing vegetables and chewing out the sound of "bar/chirp/bar/chirp", all of the high-end diners here have been selected by the God of Food, so naturally they will not make such a gaffe behavior.
And me and the little ghost, given that we all have scruples, we are naturally extremely restrained and dare not trespass.
Still, I felt that the trip was worthwhile, and that being able to taste such a delicacy was not in vain for my previous restlessness.
Not long after, Xianle stopped again, and saw a petite woman appear in the center of the banquet, dressed as a cook, with a delicate face like a porcelain doll.
"Lord Food!"
The immortal family, who had come back from the food, saw the woman and immediately let out an exclamation.
At this moment, everyone came back to their senses and stood up and praised this god of food for his amazing cooking skills, which had reached the realm of supernatural perfection.
I looked at that person in disbelief, and I couldn't help but admire in my heart, it is truly remarkable that a woman can carry forward her cooking skills to such an extent!
However, I heard that she no longer asks about the world, and even the banquet of the Emperor and the Emperor is no longer taken care of, if she hadn't researched a new dish this time, she would not have invited the immortals to the banquet, but why did the Emperor of Heaven have such a big family and only one person came?
"Don't be surprised, the war in the Wild Sky Pass is urgent, and those high-ranking and powerful gods have already rushed to the Heavenly Emperor Palace, wanting to discuss a proper solution. Otherwise, I'm afraid there will be a lot of people sitting here today. ”
The little ghost saw my doubts at a glance and explained nonchalantly.
"In that case, then why is His Royal Highness Nine still here?"
"I heard that this Nine Highnesses is not favored, he has no soldiers and horses in his hands, and he himself is not obsessed with power, so he has always been idle, so he did not participate in that grand event. ”
"Besides, the god of food will not invite those who have big tongues and do not know how to taste to participate in the feast of the god of food. ”
The little ghost seems to know the general trend of the world and the character of the god of food very well, and when he says it like this, he is as familiar as pouring beans.
"Could it be that the Emperor of Heaven invited Taizu to go to the Nine Heavens to discuss the Dao, but in fact, it was also for the sake of the Deserted Heavenly Pass?"
"Huh, do you know such secrets?"
It would be the little imp's turn to be surprised and look at me with some surprise.
"I also heard what Yin Chan'er said, that old witch, do you recognize it?"
"Old witch? Hahaha! That's a good point! Isn't she just an old witch, and she pretends to be tender every day. ”
The little ghost suddenly burst out laughing, and he was also quite dissatisfied with Yin Chan'er between his words.
"Do you recognize her?" I asked, as if I had found a soulmate, pulling the little ghost's head.
"Recognize, isn't she just a silver cicada who eavesdropped on Taizu's preaching and attained the Tao, and she was proud of her immortality method after cultivating a half-hung man, showing off all over the street!"
"Yes, yes, yes, she is a silver cicada, I am very unhappy when I look at her, and she also says every day that she is a registered disciple of Taizu!"
In the past, Taizu was talking about immortality under a ginkgo tree, and Yin Chan'er hid in the tree and eavesdropped, and after cultivating into a human form, she has been running around outside in the name of Taizu's registered disciple, in fact, Taizu has never recognized her!" The little ghost was extremely disdainful in his eyes, and seemed to have a grudge against Yin Chan'er.
