Chapter 270: Secret
The round forest in Suzhou is famous all over the world, and the Chen family has lived here for generations, in addition to having terrifying financial resources, there are also strange means of cultivating the true world.
Naturally, the nest should be built differently, step into the quaint wooden door, and suddenly feel the weather, pavilions, pavilions, rockeries, flowing water, and even the stone paths under your feet are paved with egg-sized, pebbles of different shapes and colors, full of poetry and picturesqueness.
The women of Suzhou, like Yuanlin, are like a small poem, if the Chen Linger sisters are allowed to stand on the shore of the lake paved with bluestone and willows, they do not need to be embellished with more embellishments, nor do they need a famous brush, they can immediately achieve a volume of pastel ink paintings.
Living in this kind of fairyland on earth, marrying a beautiful Suzhou woman, that is the life of the gods, what else do the majority of Xuanmen colleagues cultivate? The head of the Chen family is definitely much happier than the old man of the stone sparrow, Wang Hao thought ill-intentionedly.
As expected, the decision of the head of the family was the same as Chen Ling'er, to keep Wang Hao in the family temporarily, and at the same time send someone to inquire about Wang Hao's identity. So the fat man became the only guest of the Chen family for ten years, doing nothing all day long, and enjoying the beautiful scenery of the round forest. Chen Ling'er will not let outsiders appreciate her alchemy room, which is forbidden even for the people of the Chen family.
Syllable! In boredom, the fat man stomped hard, and the bluestone cofferdam made a muffled sound, startling the koi waiting for food in the pool.
Wang Hao has no intention of feeding them, they are extra generous when they don't use them to drink, in fact, Wang Hao has this plan, he has been in Suzhou all the year round, the Chen family seems to have forgotten how to treat guests, and he doesn't know how to arrange some wine banquets for a few days, even if the cultivator doesn't need food to sustain his life, there should be a courtesy, and the fat man's tongue is about to fade out of the bird.
It's like being a guest at someone else's house. The fun of fishing is gone, Wang Hao saw that there was no one around, and his shot was like electricity, grabbing a fat koi from the water. Pretend to slip into the bamboo bushes as if nothing happened.
More than ten minutes later, smoke rose from the cave of the rockery, and the fragrance of grilled fish filled the forest, and the beautiful scenery was immediately discounted. The people of Chenjiadi have entered the valley since the foundation was built, so there is no one in the round forest to raise the fire, cooking, the sudden rise of the cooking smoke is particularly conspicuous, coupled with the aroma of grilled fish, the stimulating effect is no less than stewed dog meat in the temple of the young monk, it is strange not to be noticed.
"You're a total bad guy. I said who is so bold as to dare to secretly bake something to eat. Chen Su'er appeared at the entrance of the cave with a look of disgust.
Cultivators can maintain their cultivation by relying on qi induction, and they also pursue the purity of the system. Therefore, it is not advisable to consume food, at most occasionally eat some fruits, eat clear tea, and it is too exaggerated to eat big fish and meat. In order to facilitate the cultivation of his children, the ancestors of the Chen family also specially promulgated family rules. It is strictly forbidden for disciples to cook in the family, no wonder Chen Su'er found out that the cooking smoke was rushing over to find out, who was so bold. It turned out to be a fat man who didn't know how to check.
It is very simple to distinguish between the two sisters, it must be Chen Su'er who finds fault when they meet, as for Chen Linger, she has never seen her since she came to the Chen family.
"Do you want to try my craft?" Wang Hao was not surprised, and his face didn't matter.
It seems that the cooking skills are quite good, the burnt yellow ground fish is deeply oily, judging from the fragrance emitted, it should be a lot of condiments, Chen Suer can't help but be a little tempted. There are also differences in family prohibitions, except for a few iron laws that must be prohibited, and the rest of the articles and provisions are useless to Chen Suer.
After hesitating for a moment, he finally sat down opposite the fat man with half a push.
The children of the family are all diligent in cultivation, my sister is obsessed with alchemy, although Chen Su'er has been favored since childhood, she has few playmates, and now, there are only two idlers in the huge Chen family, she and Wang Hao, and it is not strange that they can sit together.
Her eyes were beautiful, foggy, as if covered with a layer of moisture. Obviously, he was far more interested in the fat man than the grilled fish, and while waiting, he asked, "Hey, I've known you for so long, and I still don't know what your name is?" β
"Have you known each other for a long time? I remember that it was less than a week since I arrived at Chen's house, and in the course of this week, I had seen you twice. Wang Hao looked away from the grilled fish with difficulty.
"Don't talk about pulling down, I'll find out soon anyway." Chen Su'er turned her little face disdainfully.
"You've sent someone to check on me, haven't you? I promise, you bet you'll find nothing in the end. Observing that the heat was almost over, Wang Hao distributed the grilled fish to the girl.
If the Chen family went to the Northeast to investigate and participate in business, it would definitely be in vain, and they would never have dreamed of Wang Hao's identity. The Xiuzhen family and the Xuanmen are two worlds, not to mention that the Chen family is alone in Suzhou and has never liked to care about the affairs of the outside world.
"How do you know we're investigating?" The girl asked innocently without knowing that she had been tricked.
"Needless to ask, you invited me to be a guest, just to keep me temporarily, find out my identity, and then decide on countermeasures. That family can tolerate secrets being known. Let's eat fish! How about a taste of my craft? Wang Hao urged.
Grilled fish was put to her mouth, but Chen Su'er hesitated, after all, it was forbidden by the family, if it was with a familiar disciple, maybe she would be bolder, but the guy sitting opposite was obviously a bad person.
"Afraid I'm going to poison it? Little sister, can my brother teach you a trick? There is very little poison that can bring down a cultivator, and it is even more difficult to fight than a thousand-year-old ginseng. Wang Hao grabbed his own portion and ate it, the oil juice flowed down the corners of his mouth, shiny, tempting, stretched out his sleeve and wiped it, took out the wine jug and drank it.
Chen Suer was unwilling to be slighted, and broke the news: "Who is afraid? What do you know? After the cultivator builds the foundation, he cannot touch the meat. It turned out that the Chen family did not hesitate to make up lies for the thorough implementation of the ban.
"That's the rule of your Chen family, right? If you don't dare to eat, you say that you don't dare to eat, you can't see that you are still a good girl, and the head of the house scared you with a word. What is this theory called? Who said cultivators can't get their hands on meat? That's your editor-in-chief who came out to deceive people! I also know a few cultivators, all of whom are meat and vegetarians, and they are not taboo. Laughing to death, haha~~~~~" The fat man almost burst into tears.
Chen Su'er seemed to be greatly humiliated, her little face turned red, and she said very loudly: "Who told you that I dare not eat, I will eat it for you now!" β
Chen Su'er angrily stuffed the grilled fish into her mouth. Immediately frowned, but the crisp beauty of the grilled fish made her reluctant to give up, exhaling and chewing, but the appearance of the person couldn't help but make Wang Hao's heart pound. Perhaps only the closed management of the Chen family can produce such a simple and immature little girl long ago. Obviously, I don't understand anything, so it's not easy to be strong.
Wang Hao didn't expect that eating fish could be full of fun, but he quickly became worried about the girl, and kindly reminded: "You eat slowly, the carp has a lot of spines, be careful of hurting you." β
"You have to take care of it!" Chen Su'er swallowed the grilled fish in her mouth recklessly, but before the words fell, she frowned exaggeratedly and let out two embarrassing but beautiful moans.
"Stuck in a fish bone?" Wang Hao couldn't cry or laugh. Seeing that her pretty face was flushed, she hurriedly beat her back and knocked her head. The big hand slapped on the girl's delicate shoulder, and it was harder and harder. Just looking at it makes people feel distressed.
Soon, the more elegant tricks in the traditional ones were all used, but they couldn't be effective, and Chen Su'er still let out a painful cough.
It seems that all those home remedies are deceptive. Believing that science is the last word, Wang Hao also changed to the tone of a big brother and pointed out step by step.
"You have to learn how to use dexterity to make fish bones. It's like you usually spit, but harder, you try. β
The second lady of the Chen family, who was born in a famous family, is a little naughty, but it is difficult to understand the vulgar habits. Wang Hao had no choice but to show up and perform the technique of spitting, and that ugly appearance immediately made Chen Suer shake her head again and again, and her crescent-shaped eyebrows were almost squeezed together. Far from being ugly, it adds points to be playful and cute.
After all, it is a painful thing to have a stab in the throat, and Wang Hao is encouraging and alarmist. What fish bones will become dumb after a long time, and he can figure it out. Fortunately, it worked, Chen Suer quickly let go of her reserve, and she didn't care about any image, so she tried to imitate the essentials of a fat man.
Well, well, Chen Su'er blushed and coughed a few times.
Wang Hao encouraged impatiently: "If you work harder, you will come out with a little force, I promise." ...β
"cough ~ cough cough ~ cough cough ~ cough ~ cough." The essentials are basically mastered, and the fat man no longer speaks.
After dozens of attempts, Chen Su'er stopped, but still refused to speak.
"How? Did the fish bones come out? The fat man asked anxiously.
Chen Su'er shook her head and still refused to speak, but judging from her soothing expression, there was no big problem. Khan, such a beautiful little girl actually became mute, Wang Hao's sin is great, and it is all caused by grilled fish.
"So, I'll ask you, you don't have to answer, if it's you, you nod your head, don't you just shake your head, do you understand?" is worthy of being fat, and quickly came up with a solution.
"The fish bones came out?"
Nod.
"You can't talk now?"
Pure nonsense, the girl nodded.
"Why?" Wang Hao suddenly found that the girl's eyes were not good, and quickly corrected: When I didn't ask, come again. Do you have a sore throat? β
Shake oneβs head.
"Don't want to ignore me?"
Still shaking his head.
After trying for a long time, Wang Hao still didn't find the right solution, and the girl's expression had long since changed from pain to shyness. Suddenly rushed out of the stone cave, and soon turned back, with a relaxed face, as soon as he came in, he raised his pink fist and ravaged Wang Haodi's happy shoulder.
"Big villain, it's all your fault for tricking me into eating fish."
Finally able to speak out loud, Wang Hao was relieved, the small fist hit his body not only did not hurt, but also very comfortable.
The reason why Chen Suer didn't speak was very simple, the fish bones came out, but there was saliva with the fish bones, how could she be embarrassed to spit it out in front of a man with a good family education, of course, it was impossible for her to swallow it again, it was too disgusting, not to mention that the saliva was still mixed with fish bones, so she could only hold back and not speak.
"Didn't I tell you just now, carp has a lot of bones, tell people to eat slowly, be careful." Wang Hao begged for mercy aggrievedly, although he enjoyed it very much.
Chen Su'er suddenly remembered an important thing and asked, "Carp! Aren't you unable to leave the Chen family? When did you go out to buy fish, do you still have contact with the outside? β
"You look at me like a thief, how can I have time to go out to buy fish and contact the outside." Wang Hao regretted a little that he didn't bring a mobile phone, but even if he did, it was useless, it seemed that his friends didn't have mobile phones, so who to call.
"And where did you get the fish? Did you do something in the fish, and you recruited it from the truth? "The girl still thinks that the fish bones got stuck because of the fish.
"Heaven and earth conscience, this is your fish, what can be the problem? Besides, this fish is roasted for my own consumption, and I am not a prophet of the future, how did I know that you would come? What do you think I'm doing? "Even if Wang Hao really has the ability to predict the future, he can't bear to attack a little girl.
"Then who knows, maybe you deliberately lured me in with the smell of grilled fish." Chen Su'er finally got smarter, but soon exclaimed: "You lie to people, the people of our family never stick to meat stars, what are you buying fish for?" β
Wang Hao explained mysteriously: "It's not bought, it's raised, there are a lot of koi in the pond at your house, don't you know?" I caught it easily, how about it, my skills at grilling fish are not bad, right? β
Halfway through the words, Chen Su'er rushed out of the stone cave like crazy again, and this time, Wang Hao heard a clear sound of vomiting.
When she was six years old, she liked to lean on the railing alone and feed the carp in the pond with bread crumbs.
At that time, feeding the fish became Chen Su'er's only game, and she could even accurately identify each koi fish and give them interesting names one by one.
This time, Chen Su'er didn't come back, because she vomited so badly that even her clothes were dirty, and she didn't want to see the fat man again.
"The dead fat man must have bought Snow Frost for stew, that guy eats everything! Maybe he doesn't have a conspiracy at all, he's just a gluttonous bastard. Chen Suer said to her sister, but one thing is undeniable, the fat man's cooking skills are indeed very good, and unconsciously, she questioned the lies made up by the family editor, and wondered whether giving up food for the sake of cultivation would not be worth the loss.
Chen Ling'er laughed at her sister's complaints, and the person sent to inquire about the information came back without a clue. Missearched by Wang Hao, they first targeted the family in the north, and the family that sold medicinal materials was completed without much effort, and the investigation list included all relatives, but there was still no such person. After that, these people began to look for a needle in a haystack again, investigating all the wealthy families in the territory, and only a handful of families who could smash 35 million were able to make a move, and they did not return in vain until last night.
In Chen Ling'er's view, such an investigation result not only does not prove that Wang Hao is not a threat, but on the contrary, shows that he is not a simple character.
So far, the Chen family does not know Wang Hao's origin, and he is not even clear whether he is an enemy or a friend. But Wang Hao clearly knows the affairs of the Chen family, and all of them are **, for example, Wang Hao broke her identity, even in the four major families, no one has ever seen Chen Ling'er, which is surprising enough, and according to the performance of the fat man, it is very likely to know about the Chen family's alchemy, which is the biggest secret of the Chen family.
