During the trip to Baiyun Mountain, Yan Fang solved the secrets in the book by chance, found a way to cultivate the Yuan Force of Heaven and Earth, and successfully completed the seven-day covenant, and Old Man Zhao naturally did not take the book back. Every night, after finishing the kitchen, Yan Fang would climb up to the roof along the wooden ladder, sit on the eaves to feel the Yuan Force of Heaven and Earth, and practice under the reflection of the stars.

The process of cultivation is boring, figuratively speaking, it is to try to feel the existence of small points of light in the surrounding heaven and earth, and then gather them, at the beginning, Yan Fang needs to meditate for an hour to feel the existence of small points of light, and it is very faint, flickering light and dark, if there is nothing. It's like an elf that just tried to catch it, and it fled.

The so-called cultivation, cultivation is the perception and control of the Heaven and Earth Yuan Force, as the cultivation becomes more and more sophisticated, the perception of the Heaven and Earth Yuan Force will naturally go up, Yan Fang can feel more and more small light spots around, at first one, then five, ten, dozens, hundreds... The small dots of light also became brighter and brighter, at first faintly like fireflies, and then gradually brightened up over the stars in the sky.

In addition to Yan Fang's daily penance, Old Man Zhao would occasionally point out a few words to Yan Fang, intentionally or unintentionally, and after a month of penance, Yan Fang's cultivation broke through from the second layer of condensation to the fourth layer. This speed is several times faster than Yan Fang's previous penance cultivation of the Canghe Heart Sutra for two months, from the first layer of condensation to the second layer of condensation, it sounds a little incredible, but in fact, it is not surprising, everything in the world is the same, find a way, and pierce the layer of window paper that has been blindfolded, it will naturally progress rapidly.

Although the progress of his cultivation was very fast, Yan Fang also found a problem in his joy, that is, although he could feel more and more Heaven and Earth Yuan Force, he could also gather them and use them for his own use, but he couldn't use them well.

Yan Fang would often go to the small stele forest where Old Man Zhao gave him a book to practice, and there were many huge stones in the small stele forest, and Yan Fang would try his hand with these boulders.

"Bang"

With the fourth layer of condensation, he could leave a one-foot-deep pit on the boulder with a full blow, but when he wanted to converge his strength and leave a half-foot-deep pit, he found that he couldn't do it, either the force was too strong and a deep pit was almost a foot deep, or the force was too small, leaving only a few cracks on the stone surface.

The process of realm ascension can be likened to casting weapons, through practice, the weapons created by Yan Fang are becoming sharper and sharper, and the lethality is getting bigger and bigger, but the corresponding requirements for users are getting higher and higher: the golden hoop stick can make a big fuss in the sky in the hands of Sun Wukong, but in the hands of mortals, it is a broken stick that can't be moved, let alone used, Yan Fang is now like a mortal who suddenly got a divine weapon, and it is difficult to pick it up, let alone use it freely, and the man and soldier are one.

After tossing for a few days with little success, Yan Fang decided to consult the old man.

At this time, the old man had just finished working in the back kitchen, Yan Fang respectfully handed over a cup of freshly brewed tea, and said cheekily: "Master, you have been busy for so long and tired, sit down, the apprentice has made you a cup of tea, you can taste it." ”

The old man drooped his eyelids, didn't take the tea handed by Yan Fang, and said expressionlessly: "There must be demons when things are impermanent, do you kid have any requirements for me, if you have something to say, say it quickly, and let it go if you have a fart." ”

Yan Fang put the tea aside awkwardly, and scratched his head embarrassedly, "It's that after I reached the fourth layer of condensation, I found that I couldn't control the Heaven and Earth Yuan Force well, and I was tied up, which was very awkward." ”

The old man's old face couldn't see a trace of emotional fluctuations, and he silently spoke: "You have been feeling these days, gathering the Heaven and Earth Yuan Force, but you have never practiced how to control it, using the Heaven and Earth Yuan Force, when the Heaven and Earth Yuan Force is gathered, of course, there will be a situation that cannot be controlled." ”

"Then how should I practice control and use the ability of Heaven and Earth Yuan Force?"

The old man suddenly stared at Yan Fang and smiled maliciously.

"Didn't you just ask me if I was tired after being busy for so long, old man, I've been really tired lately, alas, people are useless when they're old, I won't go into the back kitchen from today on, I'll leave it to you and Dafa. ”

"Huh?"

...

"Senior brother, don't cut vegetables first, quickly fry a bamboo shoot and stir-fried meat, the guests outside are urging, my sweet and sour fish is not ready yet, and I can't be busy." Li Dafa's originally white face is now flushed, I don't know if he was smoked by the heat in the kitchen or in a hurry. There were beads of sweat the size of beans on his face.

"But senior brother, I don't know how to stir-fry, and it's not like you haven't eaten the dishes I stir-fried. ”

"I can't care so much, let's be a dead horse and a live horse doctor," Li Da said with a spatula.

Yan Fang could only get started when he heard this, the bamboo shoots and pork had been cut before, and he almost poured oil and fried them in the pot.

"Zizi"

"Ahh

Yan Fang was too anxious when he poured the meat down, and the oil splashed on his face. endured the pain and began to stir-fry, Yan Fang didn't know how to cook in his previous life, and the number of times he cooked in this life was only a handful, and he was more in the back kitchen to help Old Man Zhao and Li Dafa. I really don't have much confidence in my cooking level, and after seeing that the bamboo shoots and meat are almost cooked, I poured some soy sauce and came out of the pot. beckoned Xiao Er, who was running outside, to hurry up.

It didn't take long for the dish to be served.

"Phew"

"Who made the bamboo shoots and stir-fried meat, and the meat is still raw. ”

...

In the next three days, such a situation happened repeatedly, and it was really a wave of unsettled, wave after wave...

"Master, you better don't let your junior brother cook, if you continue like this, no one will come to eat with us. Aunt Liu said that in the past few days, she will not be able to earn the money she has lost to the guests and sold a hundred servings of sweet and sour fish. Li Dafa pleaded with a sad face.

Yan Fang stood next to him and scratched his head awkwardly.

The old man held a cigarette stick in one hand and spit smoke clouds in his mouth, "Read more books." If you read more, you'll understand. ”

After finishing speaking, he went out to listen to the book with his back to his back, since Yan Fang started to stir-fry, the old man who was rare and idle had to go to the nearby teahouse to listen to the book at this point every day.

Yan Fang looked at the old man's back thoughtfully.

After returning to the room, Yan Fang opened the blue-lined book, which was scattered into pieces of paper in the carriage last time, and Yan Fang rebound it afterwards.

Flip to the section that documents the culinary aspect. Yan Fang mobilized the Yuan Force of Heaven and Earth. Pictures began to emerge in front of me. A tall middle-aged man in a white robe is killing fish. In chopping vegetables.. In the stir-fry of meat... In the soup... His movements are very calm and skillful, and his movements are as smooth as flowing water. When he was cooking, he also exuded strong fluctuations in the Heaven and Earth Yuan Force around him, and this Heaven and Earth Yuan Force seemed to be still controlling the firepower, sensing the degree of rawness and ripeness of the dishes...

Yan Fang woke up like a dream, secretly scolding himself for being stupid, the old man wanted to let himself use the Yuan Force of Heaven and Earth to cook at the beginning, and he was stupid until now.

Throwing down the book and entering the back kitchen, Yan Fang couldn't wait to try what kind of experience it was like to use the Yuan Force of Heaven and Earth to cook.

"Well, let's start by chopping the shredded potatoes. Yan Fang took a piece of peeled and washed potatoes and began the experiment. Yan Fang began to cut the potatoes according to the usual method, first cutting horizontally to prevent it from rolling, then cutting it into thin slices, and finally cutting it into shreds, unlike before, this time he invoked the Heaven and Earth Yuan Force in the process of cutting.

Hundreds of invisible small points of light converged around Yan Fang, converged on kitchen knives, converged on potatoes... Yan Fang's perception seems to be dozens of times sharper, when he fixes the potato with his hand, he can clearly perceive the texture and thickness of the potato, and it can be cut very accurately every time he goes under the knife... In a few moments, a plate of thin shredded potatoes was cut.

Yan Fang looked at the shredded potatoes in front of him a little stunned, this was much better than what he usually cut, although it was much worse than the shredded potatoes cut by Old Man Zhao, but it had already caught up with Li Dafa's level!

Yan Fang was about to try his hand at firework again, so he took two small chili peppers and cut them into shreds, preparing to make a plate of fried shredded potatoes.

Put a little oil in the pot, and after the oil is hot, pour in the shredded potatoes and chili peppers, Yan Fang once again called the Yuan Force of Heaven and Earth, and clearly sensed the heating situation of each shredded potato, every stir-fry is effective and reasonable, and when the fry is almost done, add a little salt to taste, and a plate of fried shredded potatoes will be out of the pot.

Yan Fang tasted it, a little can't believe that this is his own fried dish, the shredded potatoes are very finely cut, the heat is just right, the only drawback is a little lighter, but it is definitely the best dish he has ever made in his two lives.

...

Cuiming Lou back kitchen

"Brother Yan, the guests at the Tianzi table said that the fried fat sausages were not enough to eat, so they ordered two more servings!"

"Okay, I'll do it right away. ”

Yan Fang held a shovel in one hand and an iron pot in the other, constantly stir-frying the fat intestines in the pot, and there was a strong Heaven and Earth Yuan Force surging around...
