Chapter 43: Small Talk (Favorites, Recommendations)
In a trance, the time came late at night, at two or three o'clock in the morning, it was also the most difficult time for human beings, Zhang Shaolin and Feng Lili had returned to their respective rooms to rest because they couldn't stay up, and the same was true of Sister Liu, the nanny of the Zhang family, and even Boss Zhang, who was the party concerned, fell asleep early because of mental problems, leaving only Deng Youlu and Chen Hu to remain awake and stay in Boss Zhang's house.
"Speaking of which, you are still so bold, you dare to reveal to me that you can make such a thing as spiritual food, are you not afraid that I really had some kind of mind at that time, which is not good for you?"
"Of course I'm worried, but do you think I'm the kind of idiot who dares to leak the bottom casually without relying on it?"
"It seems that Master Chen is very confident in his methods. Deng Youlu's eyes flashed and he chuckled.
"At least self-preservation should be fine. Chen Hu said calmly.
"That couldn't be better. Deng Youlu said with a smile.
"Oh?" this time, it was Chen Hu's turn to look at him with unexpected eyes.
"Master Chen may not know the significance of your skill of using ordinary ingredients to concoct spiritual dishes to cultivators like me, right? Just like the alchemists in those popular online novels now, they are very precious resources, as long as you have a heart, you will not be able to let you go easily. ”
"Okay, maybe like me, I will choose to cooperate with you and use the normal transaction method to obtain the delicacies you made. As for the bad ones......"
"Restricting my freedom, keeping me in captivity like a pig, becoming a private chef who only cooks for them. The latter words didn't need Deng Youlu to say, so Chen Hu naturally took over the conversation and said his fate.
"Not bad. Therefore, Master Chen, your strength is very important. Deng Youlu confirmed.
"Then what about you, you don't have any other ideas?" Chen Hu chuckled, raised his head, and looked at Deng Youlu opposite with burning eyes and asked rhetorically.
"Personally, I still hope to gain your friendship, Master Chen. Deng Youlu's eyes flashed slightly, and he responded to Chen Hu's gaze.
"Personally...... Chen Hu chuckled and shook his head noncommittally.
"Although I can't be 100% sure, there is an eighty percent chance that my Deng family also hopes to be able to gain your friendship Master Chen. Deng Youlu smiled, looked at Chen Hu and said again.
There was a rare look of sincerity and seriousness in his eyes, and it seemed as if he was serious.
"Oh?" Chen Hu was taken aback and looked at the other party in surprise.
"Although the aura is extremely important to cultivators, it is not the first place for us Immortal Family disciples, Master Chen, you should understand what I mean by this, right?" Deng Youlu asked rhetorically with a smile in his eyes.
Chen Hu frowned slightly, and then suddenly came over.
Indeed, for the Deng family, a group of guys who jump to the gods, invite the gods, and worship the gods, personal strength is indeed not the most important. After all, even if their individual strength is strong, can they be stronger than the 'immortals' who have sacrificed for several generations?
This is obviously impossible! Therefore, instead of offending a 'master' with great potential and uncertain strength for the sake of this kind of spiritual food that can only increase one's own strength at present, and provoke the next enemy for his family out of thin air, it is better to make friends with the other party, or even sell favors, so as to increase the relationship between the two parties and achieve the goal of common progress.
After all, although their group of 'children of the Immortal Family' does not pay attention to personal strength, it does not mean that they do not need personal strength at all - at least physical fitness or something is still needed, otherwise even if there is a powerful immortal in his body for him to summon at any time, his weak body may not be able to support it.
Not to mention exerting the strength of the other party. As for Reiki...... That is the price of inviting immortals to possess oneself, it is food, it is something to exchange, the more it is, the better, it is less, and it does not affect the quality of the spirit, and it can also invite immortals to come up and complete various commissions.
At most, it's just the length of time, and it doesn't have a very absolute effect.
This is fundamentally different from other cultivators who take the spirit as the foundation and then rely on the spirit to fight.
Of course, these are just the premise that Deng Youlu unilaterally thought that the spiritual food made by Chen Hu was only for people to eat, if he knew that this spiritual food could be eaten even by ghosts of the same nature as the 'immortals', the result was estimated to be very different.
Thinking of this, Chen Hu was stunned and gave himself a warning.
"Before you have absolute strength or enough guaranteed hole cards, try not to entertain ghosts in front of your family......"
Compared with the spiritual power cultivators whose strength is all in themselves, the strength of the immortals of the Izuma family is completely uncertain, and it may be as low as the strength of ordinary resentful ghosts, but if it is high, it is really like an immortal, as long as the people of the Majia family can go out, there are really few people in the world who can resist the 'great immortals' of the Izuma family, and it is not an exaggeration to say that they are invincible in the world.
So if you can mess with these crazy people, it's better not to mess with them.
"So if Master Chen encounters any trouble that can't be solved, you can come to Shengjing to find me, as long as I can solve it, I won't shirk it. Seeing that Chen Hu figured it out, Deng Youlu said again.
However, he still left room between the words, so as not to trap himself into it.
Selling well is selling well, and it is not good to sell your own life.
Chen Hu nodded, which can be regarded as inheriting Deng Youlu's love.
After that, the two put aside the topic and talked about the current situation in the world.
Of course, it is not an ordinary secular society that can be checked on the Internet, seen with the naked eye, and seen in the news, but a small circle of extraordinary forces like the Ma Deng family hidden under this ordinary society. Since he met someone who understands, Chen Hu naturally wants to get to know it well, so as not to offend someone in a daze and cause some kind of trouble.
"In fact, the situation in the circle is not as complicated as you think, and it can even be said that it is exposed to a certain extent, for example, the sect with the most famous reputation and recognized strength at the moment is the Longhu Mountain Heavenly Master Mansion located in Gan Province, is there an unexpected feeling?" Deng Youlu looked at Chen Hu who was stunned and smiled.
"I really didn't expect it. Chen Hu nodded in affirmation.
No ordinary person would have thought that it has become a famous scenery, and Longhu Mountain, a national five-A scenic spot, is still a force with such exaggerated influence and strength behind the scenes, which somewhat affects the world view.
"In that case, what Wudang and Shaolin are not simple?"
"Exactly. Therefore, for the mountains in the circle, you can see through the information on the Internet, all the famous mountains and rivers, scenic spots, or sects that have been pointed out a lot in stories and novels basically have secret doors, and find their corresponding disciples in the circle. ”
"I see. So it seems that there are still a lot of people like you and me. ”
"Not a lot, indeed. ”
"Then why haven't I heard of it?" Chen Hu wondered.
"Naturally, it's because of the rules in the circle. ”
"How?"
"Obey the law, do not ostentatious, do not cause trouble, try to hide your abilities, and do not let the world know. ”
"What if it leaks?" Chen Hu asked again after a pause.
"If you can solve it yourself, you can solve it yourself, and don't worry too much about what you can't solve, the official will naturally control the information and cover up all the things that are not good for the light, but you will definitely get a warning afterwards, and then be labeled as unstable and monitored for a period of time until the official thinks it is okay. Deng Youlu said indifferently.
"......" Chen Hu was silent, secretly took out his mobile phone, logged on to his Weibo named Chef Chen, and checked the videos recording the glowing cuisine inside.
