Chapter XXIV
Chu Li's face did not ease, but he gave Chu Huanhuan enough face and did not stop him again. As the third senior brother of the Liuyun Sect, he is also busy with sect affairs every day, and in addition to cultivation, he also needs to regularly instruct other disciples. is exactly what Chu Huanhuan wants, and he returns every morning and evening, but the two of them don't often see each other. When Chu Lian is busy, he is not in the mansion, and he will accompany Chu Huanhuan in his spare time.
The dining hall is full of mortals taking care of chores, and the disciples of the sect generally do not set foot here, and after getting along for a few days, Chu Huanhuan feels that he has a lot of peace of mind than he imagined. Of course, there are also reasons for her brother Chulin. If you have time, you will come over, even if it is just to sit for a while, it is a blow to the people here. Most of the food eaten by the disciples in the sect is extracted from the medicine mountain to ensure that there are no impurities.
The process of brewing soy sauce is complicated, but fortunately, there are still drinks in the other world, so you don't have to bother brewing soy sauce koji. Chu Huanhuan is also the first time that the eldest girl has been on a sedan chair. I don't know if the flavor of using rice koji instead of soy sauce koji will be different, so only five jars were made. Soak the soybeans overnight in advance, then steam them in water, let them cool, and then mix them with rice koji and crushed wheat powder. Place in a cool place and allow to ferment.
"Miss Chu, this thing has never been seen in the Great Yan Contemptible people, but what is the use?" The steward frowned, this is all moldy, can you still eat it?
"It's called soy sauce, and when you cook a dish, you can add seasoning, and you'll know when it's ready." Chu Huanhuan sold a pass.
"Oh, and what is this?" The steward pointed to five other clay jars.
"It's vinegar, and it's the same thing as soy sauce." Chu Huanhuan didn't hide it from them.
After all, this is a consumable, if you don't teach them how to make it, she alone will be able to manage it in the future. The production process of vinegar is very similar to that of soy sauce, but there are many more steaming steps, and Chu Huanhuan is a little unsure. After all, in modern times, these can be easily bought, where you need to do it. After solving the two major problems, Chu Huanhuan would teach the chefs here a few dishes every day.
After a busy morning, I had time to rest at noon.
"You girl is shrewd." Rou 13 had no objection to her approach, but still had some approval.
"It is better to teach a man to fish than to teach him to fish, not to mention that the monks have no habit of eating at all after clearing the grain. Even if it is a spirit plant, it will not be eaten. One is that it tastes bad, and the other is that appetite is not beneficial to practice. But if you can make dishes that taste good and are good for your spiritual practice, wouldn't you kill two birds with one stone? Chu Huanhuan's idea is more than that.
She was able to practice just by relying on food supplements, which was a thing against the sky, but it was not without shortcomings. Her spiritual powers were softer and less aggressive than the other monks. That's the Achilles' heel, she's not good at fighting. So, why not use this method to exchange some connections, and maybe you can escape smoothly in the future when you fight........
"That's fine." Rou 13 did not say anything about this.
"I've taken a leaf of obscurity, but how do I feel, nothing has changed?" Chu Huanhuan only took the time to make that dish today, and after eating it, nothing happened.
"Really?" Rou Thirteen smiled and faded away.
"Are you busy again until now?" As long as Chu Li is free, he will run to the dining hall.
"Third brother! Come try my new dish? Chu Huanhuan's fear of Chu Li has dissipated a lot, but there is always a strange and indescribable strange feeling in his heart.
Chu Lian thought that Chu Huanhuan was just joking and greedy for freshness, but after tasting her craftsmanship, he had another thought in his heart. Perhaps, isn't that another way out?
Recently, there has been a small wave of wind in the Liuyun Sect, and the taste of the food of the low-level disciples has not only become much better, but it is also quite helpful for cultivation after eating. This kind of way of increasing cultivation has attracted the attention of many high-level disciples. But in the end, he held his own identity, and he had not yet reached the point of competing with low-level disciples for food.
"Fourth, do you think this little girl is still a little capable?" Xiaoxiao looked at the food on the table, but she really put a lot of effort into it.
"It's good, but it's only helpful to low-level disciples." Shen Luo thought about it for a while and felt that this was a good opportunity.
"According to me, it's better to take her under the door first, so as not to be attacked by others first!" Xiaoxiao picked up a piece of fish meat casually, it was tender and sweet, and there was no fishy smell at all, and it was really worthy of the rumors in the sect.
"That kid Chu Di is in the dining hall every day, not because he is afraid that the disciples in the sect will disturb his sister's purity. We are in the past, thankless. The reason why Shen Luo has not started is because he is afraid of Chu Li.
"Hasn't his sister always had thoughts about the Liuyun Sect? When the sect makes a big move, we use a little means to let her worship under our door, and that's it. Xiaoxiao's decision is imperative.
The two of them had a plan in their hearts, so they didn't press it for the time being.
Under Chu Huanhuan's tutelage, the person in charge is also a smart person, and he treats her as an aunt and grandmother. If those of them who are servants meet harsher disciples, life will be difficult. Now with Chu Huanhuan's guidance, and the favor of the disciples in terms of food, the days of the dining hall are really unprecedentedly comfortable.
"Steward Liu, do you have a lot of dishes today?" The little girl of twelve or thirteen asked timidly.
"Susu, don't you know, since our dishes have been improved, they are in short supply every day, where is there more portions?" Liu Er waved his hand, he was often stopped by his disciples to ask, but there were not enough people for the ingredients, so he couldn't be blamed!
Su Su's figure trembled slightly, thinking that he was afraid that when he went back to his life, he would inevitably be scolded. Liuyun Sect does not allow disciples to use lynching, let alone cause death, but it is common for servants to be beaten and scolded in private, except for not wanting to die, life is not too easy. Chu Huanhuan saw it in her eyes, and she didn't have a good way to help them at the moment.
"Susu, send this boiled fish over." Chu Huanhuan gave up a dish, but she didn't worry about food and clothing.
"Yo, where is this, Miss Chu." Liu Er hurriedly stepped forward to stop.
"I'm out of the way, Susu, which disciple are you serving?" Chu Huanhuan wanted to see who was so arrogant.
"I ...... I serve Ning Shen, the disciple of the Five Elders. Su Su is young and simple, and when he saw that Chu Huanhuan was willing to help him, he almost kowtowed and thanked him.
"You take the vegetables back to your life first, don't make people wait." Chu Huanhuan secretly wrote it down.
After Su Su thanked him, he went back with the dishes to resume his life, and his steps were hurried, and he seemed to be very afraid of Ning Shen. When Liu Er heard about this person, he already had an indescribable look on his face, and when he saw that Chu Huanhuan insisted on helping her, it was difficult to speak. After Su Su left, Liu Er weighed it, and he still had to tell Chu Huanhuan some news.
"Do you know, although Ning Shen is a new disciple in the sect, he is the immediate family member of the five elders, and with the protection of the five elders, he is used to running rampant in the sect. You can protect her once, but you can't protect her next time! Liu Er still didn't dare to tell Ning Shen what he had done.
"Is he hard to mess with?" Chu Huanhuan was free to think about it, Chu Lian had been protecting her and not letting her know the rumors outside. But where there is an impermeable wall in the world, it is nothing more than to criticize yourself as a waste.
She is considered famous in the Liuyun Sect, although she is famous in reverse. She is worried about entering the sect, who will she use to kill chickens and monkeys. The people of the Five Elders? Chu Li did not have any intersection with the fifth elder, but he was closer to the second elder and the fourth elder. Doesn't that mean that Ning Shen is a suitable target? Chu Huanhuan is not in a hurry to make a move, she has faintly touched the threshold of foundation building recently, and after some time, she will be able to break through smoothly.
In the past, she must return it in person.
"Ugh....... Ning Shen's own strength is not ranked among the new students in the sect. However, behind him were the five elders, and no one in the new students dared to provoke him. "Liu Er is also a cultivator, but his talent is limited, and he has been practicing for a hundred years, and he is still hovering in building a foundation. Seeing that the future was hopeless, he invited himself to the dining hall as a steward.
"What are you?" Liu Er couldn't figure out Chu Huanhuan's thoughts, this Miss Chu was not as talented and arrogant as rumored, but she was not arrogant and kind to others, and she got along better than ordinary disciples.
"I'll just ask." Chu Huan smiled and didn't ask any more.
"Huanhuan!"
Before I saw him, I heard his voice first, and a figure rushed in quickly, without any seriousness and elegance.
"Long time no see, do you miss me?" Ning Chenqian didn't feel that this would damage his image at all, and he still had a grinning face.
Chu Huanhuan had the impression that Ning Chenqian was smiling like this, happy every day, and he didn't know what made him so happy. Liu Er took people to clean up the stove room, in the past, the dining hall didn't have so much effort to serve, and some disciples would rather eat Bigu Dan than come to receive food. Since Chu Huanhuan improved the dishes, three meals a day, every disciple did not fall behind, and the dining hall was in the limelight for a while.
"You're a big celebrity in the sect now! Everybody's talking about you, how's that? Unhappy? Ning Chenqian winked at her.
"I'm not happy, people are afraid of being famous, pigs are afraid of being strong." Chu Huan laughed and quipped.
"However, they didn't know that you were the one behind the scenes. When they find out, they're afraid they'll have their eyes glazed off. Ning Chenqian looked in his early twenties, but he was not as calm as Chu Li at all, making people feel that he was still a big child.
"Brother Ning, let me ask something." Chu Huanhuan changed his words.
"You can ask the right person, there is nothing in the sect that I don't know!" Ning Chenqian is exquisite, left and right, and the affairs in the sect are clear.
"Disciples of the Liuyun Sect, can't you practice the exercises of its sect?" Chu Huanhuan didn't dare to ask Chu Li, but he was able to ask Ning Chenqian.
"Shhh...... It stands to reason that the exercises of the Liuyun Sect are already the first in the Nine Domains, and there is no other exercise that can be compared. However, if it is some body methods, or auxiliary mental methods, there are also many in the sect's Tibetan Scripture Pavilion, which does not hinder the disciples from cultivating. Ning Chenqian touched his chin.
"What are you asking for?" Ning Chenqian reacted.
