Chapter Twenty-Nine: The Dinner
"Is the cafeteria a change of monk? Today's menu doesn't seem to be the same as before. Some of the monks in the dining room were talking.
"It seems that yes, didn't the sect accept a new batch of disciples yesterday? Maybe it's them. ”
"Great, I finally don't have to eat pig food in the future!" The monk who said this almost burst into tears, and many of the monks around him looked at each other and thought it was true.
Ji Xue noticed that most of the more active people were monks in the foundation building period. The vast majority of the monks in the Qi cultivation period came to eat just to fill their stomachs. The monks of the foundation building period who came here to eat did not get rid of the habit of enjoying delicious food and three meals a day in the secular world.
To be honest, the food in the cultivation realm is actually not bad. Of course, that's outside the sect, inside the sect, hehe...... It's hard to describe what it tastes like.
Fortunately, the food has improved now. In the future, they will no longer have to travel thousands of miles to the sect just to eat.
The discussion of the crowd has not stopped, and Ji Xue has heard a lot of gossip. Regarding the "pig food" before the sect, Ji Xue said that she had not accepted this kind of poison, so she did not evaluate it. She felt that as long as it wasn't a dark dish with a poisoned debuff, it wouldn't be too hard to accept. She loves food, but she's not a picky eater.
Ji Xue found that the seasoning method of roasting whole chicken was somewhat familiar, a bit like the craft of winter warmth, but she didn't dig deeper. The friends were all busy adapting to this cultivation realm, and she couldn't interfere with them and cause trouble for them. Just like the original agreement, everyone will make their own efforts first, and wait until they have enough money in their pockets to make themselves decent, and then meet and get together.
Since Ji Xue crossed over, she rarely ate alone, and she was not unaccustomed to it, but ate quietly and thought about things. It has been more than half a year since she crossed over, and she seems to be adapting very well, but she is actually very uneasy in her heart.
She didn't know why the Heavenly Dao of this world would allow her to have this accident. But when she saw the aura, she realized that she was self-inflicted, that the world was rejecting her, and that she did not fully accept her existence at all. If not, why could she see the aura clearly when no one else could see it?
Tiandao: I'm not so stingy, the bright halo just wants to give my two babies a sense of existence in the face of variables.
Ji Xue set her eyes on Wen Ziyu's table, the halo on the blue and pink halos on the heads of the two of them was still spreading in circles, and the clear and transparent rings exuded a luster that looked like jasper.
- so obvious. Why can't anyone else see it? And why do you have to let her see it? What does the Heavenly Dao of this world want to do?
Ji Xue didn't think about it anymore, she was eating roast chicken carelessly, she didn't care what Tiandao wanted to do, as long as it didn't affect her life, she didn't bother to care. Let him blow and rain, she will not move.
*
It's a new day, she's been in Taiyizong for almost a month, and her once deflated pockets are finally bulging.
It is almost noon, the sky is clear, and the wind is smooth. Ji Xue smiled and pushed open the courtyard door to go on a wonderful date.
At the beginning of the disciple registration division, there were more than a dozen people in the temporary team they formed in the edge forest who decided to have a good relationship for a long time, so they agreed to meet in the Taiyi Sect Main Peak Canteen after adapting to the life of the sect. It's not a big deal, just arrived in a strange place, and people from the same place will naturally huddle together, which is human nature. If you stay in the Immortal Cultivation Realm for a longer time, it will be an ordinary gathering of friends in the future.
Ji Xue chose to go to the appointment, not because he was afraid that the old disciples would bully the new disciples—not to mention that the Taiyi Sect would not allow this kind of thing to happen. She's just been lonely for too long, hoping to find a warm home.
The main peak, the Taiyi canteen.
"I'm sorry, everyone, I was delayed in the morning, and I was a little late." Ji Xue looked at her friends who had been separated for a month with a smile and expressed her belated apologies.
"It's okay, it's good to come." The friends nodded understandingly, unintentionally snooping on her privacy, Guan Haozhi changed the topic and said: "An Jingmu doesn't know what's going on, and he hasn't come yet." ”
Ji Xue glanced at Gu Yingmo curiously: Hasn't An Jingmu always been inseparable from Gu Yingmo? Awkward?
Gu Yingmo noticed Ji Xue's gaze, looked at her and shook his head, and was silent without speaking.
Ji Xue understood, didn't make any more inquiries, and turned to look at the seat. In the warm winter, Lin Shuyao left her a place between the two of them, and Ji Xue saw that Helan Yuan, Ji Yue, Lin Shuying, Chen Yunuo, Yan Yi, Yan Wu, Yan Qi, Yan Jiu, and other acquaintances were sitting there, so she curled her lips and sat down there with a smile.
Guan Haozhi and Gu Yingmo sat together, Wen Luobai sat next to him, and a little further away was Song Ziyin, who was leaning against Chen Yunuo. And there is a vacant position between Gu Yingmo and Lin Shuying, which is obviously reserved for An Jingmu.
Almost as soon as Ji Xue sat down, there were sudden hurried footsteps and heavy wheezing at the door: "Sorry, I'm late." ”
It's Ann admiration.
Now sixteen people have finally arrived, and the meeting begins.
"Let's start eating, everyone, it's already serving." Ji Yue clapped his hands, and after attracting everyone's attention, he smiled and was the first to stretch out his chopsticks to pick up the vegetables.
Seeing that someone took the lead, the scene finally began to liven up. The people present all had an excellent upbringing, and "eating without saying a word, sleeping without speaking" was almost a dogma engraved in the bones. But at this moment, everyone invariably gave up the golden rule that they usually observed, and laughed and laughed at the party. In this box covered by a soundproof barrier, only their indulgent laughter can be heard for a while.
In the middle of the banquet, Ji Xue left the box under the pretext of having something, and followed by Guan Haozhi. Guan Haozhi looked at Ji Xue suspiciously: "Ji Xue, what are you asking me to come out for?" ”
Ji Xue looked at the deep or shallow red line tied to the tail finger of Guan Haozhi's left hand, the other end of the red line passed through the wooden door, she didn't have to think deeply, she knew that the other end must be tied to the tail finger of her cheap cousin's right hand, and she couldn't help but look complicated.
"Guan Haozhi." Ji Xue quietly set up a soundproof barrier and solemnly called his name.
Guan Haozhi also couldn't help but look serious, waiting for Ji Xue's next words, until he couldn't restrain himself from thinking about it, and then he heard Ji Xue's next sentence.
"You like Kizuki."
Ji Xue's voice was light, neither big nor small, but it was like a thunderclap on the flat ground that exploded in Guan Haozhi's ears.
"Huh?" was poked in his heart, Guan Haozhi was stunned, his thinking was confused, and the whole person was stunned.
"Answer me, 'yes' or 'no.'" Ji Xue pressed forward step by step and refused to let him go.
