Shen Yuanzhong sent the two to the mountainside Taoist temple, and watched the two gradually move away until they couldn't see it at all, and then they retracted their gaze.

Shen Wuxing couldn't help but speak: "Father, do you really want to go to Beibi Mountain?"

Shen Yuan said: "There are two results, one is that my father was able to return from Beibi Mountain, or the great elder of the Taiping Sect, and the other is that my father died in Beibi Mountain. Naturally, the two outcomes are very different. But if I don't go to Beibi Mountain, there will only be one consequence, my reputation will be ruined, and I will be stinking for 10,000 years, and Li Xuandu will take off the hat of the Great Elder. Do you say you go or don't you go for the Father?"

Shen Wuxing was speechless.

Shen Yuanzhong sighed: "No luck, you have to remember that the power scheme is never about seven or eight turns, because as long as one link goes wrong, it will fail." In fact, the power scheme is more like the fight on our rivers and lakes, paying attention to stability, accuracy and ruthlessness, with clear goals, not dragging mud and water, and striving to make meritorious contributions with one blow. As for whether it is unexpected or not, whether it shows resourcefulness, it is all a minutiae. Take today's events as an example, are the methods used by Li Xuandu very complicated? They are not complicated at all, not only are they not complicated, they can even be said to be very simple, they are so simple that they can be seen through at a glance. Just like if you kill someone with a sword, what is a clever swordsmanship? If you can't kill, how many false and real tricks you hide in your swordsmanship are all bells and whistles, and they are useless. ”

Shen Wuxing said stupidly: "I don't think he's anything remarkable." ”

Shen Yuan glanced at him again, and wanted to reprimand, but when he spoke, it turned into a sigh: "If it were you, would you have such a means?"

Shen Wuxing said: "Why not, isn't it just a two-end blockage of words?"

Shen Yuanzhong said: "The reason why Li Xuandu can block me with words is that he first proposed that he would go to Beibi Mountain first, and then let me go with him. In terms of name, he is the suzerain, I am the great elder, just like the emperor and the prime minister, and now the emperor wants to drive the imperial conquest in person, you are a prime minister, and you are greedy for life and afraid of death, do you dare not step forward? This is the root cause. You said you could do it, let me ask you, even if you have the cultivation of the Heavenly and Human Realm, do you dare to go to Beibi Mountain to find the bad luck of the Earth Master?"

Shen Wuxing opened his mouth and couldn't speak.

In all fairness, two successive generations of sect masters have been victimized by the earth master, and many Taiping Sect disciples are certainly hateful, but in this hatred, it is inevitable that it will be mixed with unspeakable fear. How can the earth master cultivate, the battle of Yunjin Mountain has been undoubtedly revealed, Hugh said that it is just a realm of heaven and man, even if it is a heavenly realm, it is difficult to have the power to fight back, how can he dare to send him to death?

Yes, to send him to death, in Shen Wuxing's opinion, going to Beibi Mountain is to send him to death, so he will try his best to prevent his father from going to Beibi Mountain.

Shen Yuanzhong turned around and walked towards the mountain.

Shen Wuxing stood in place, his expression changing.

On the other side, after Li Xuandu and Qin Su left Yujian Peak, they did not return to Taiping Palace, but went directly back to Tianshui Pavilion. Although Tianshui Pavilion is built on a cliff, there is a plank road similar to Shu Road connecting the mountain road, and there is a special person responsible for waiting.

This is the benefit of the master of a sect, not long after Li Xuandu came back, a disciple asked whether to eat, Li Xuandu thought about it, nodded in agreement, and said to Qin Su: "It's just right, you can also have some food together." ”

Qin Su wanted to refuse, but Li Xuandu had already preemptively said: "I heard Mrs. Lu say that the chef in charge of Tianshui Pavilion is proficient in Qi cuisine and Shu cuisine, you are from Liaodong, you should be familiar with Qi cuisine, but Shu cuisine should be eaten less, you might as well try it." ”

According to reason, with Qin Su's identity, he should have eaten all kinds of delicacies from the mountains and seas, but Qin Su really didn't have such a good taste because of Bigu.

The two sat opposite each other, and after a short time, a female disciple brought wine and food to the two.

Qin Su just glanced at it, and said: "I have heard that the Taiping Sect is rich for a long time, and when I saw it today, it was really unusual. ”

The utensils used by the two are all extravagant and gorgeous, the chopsticks are ivory, the wine cups are jade, and the plates are fired in the official kiln of the former dynasty.

Qin Su looked at today's main dish again, and saw that there was only one small cabbage soaked in the clear soup in the cup, which was extremely incommensurate with the beauty of the cup, and couldn't help asking, "Zifu, what kind of dish is this?"

Li Xuandu replied: "This dish is called 'Qingshui Cabbage', but it also has a name, which is called 'Honest on the Surface'. ”

"What do you mean by that?" Qin Su asked.

Li Xuandu said with a smile: "When I was in Dijing, I used to eat this dish, it is said that this dish should be boiled with ham, chicken and duck meat and water for twelve hours, and then the meat is fished out, and only a pot of thick soup remains." Then the thick soup is boiled, put into the meat puree chopped from lean meat in the pot, the impurities of the soup will be adsorbed on the meat puree, when the pot is raised, the meat puree is taken out, and at the same time, in the process of cooking, it is necessary to foam and skim off the oil flowers, and so on, and so on, and finally only a bowl of clear soup remains. This bowl of clear soup is divided into two parts, one part is used to steam the cabbage, after steaming the cabbage, the lighter soup is discarded, and the other part of the original stock is poured on it, and this 'clear water cabbage' is made. This is called eating meat without seeing meat, just like the clothes of dignitaries, the same eight sets of clothes, at first glance they are all the same, but if you look closely, you will find that the details are different everywhere. They changed their clothes because they didn't want people to see it at a glance. If you look closely, you can see that you have changed eight sets of clothes a day, which can reflect that the nobles are superior to others, such as first, second, third and fourth, and the same is true for eating. ”

Although Qin Su was born in a wealthy family, he mostly traveled outside on weekdays, and he was not proficient in everything he was particular about eating, but he didn't expect this seemingly unpretentious dish to be so exquisite, and he couldn't help but sigh: "It's really 'incorruptible on the surface'." ”

Li Xuandu smiled: "I don't know who is in charge of this dish, this is an insinuation that I am shouting that I am hungry and suffering all over the world, but I am sitting in this high Tianshui Pavilion and enjoying the delicious food, which is all superficial work." ”

Qin Su was stunned, but she didn't expect this, and after a while, she said softly: "In this way, this Taiping Sect is not very peaceful. ”

Li Xuan didn't think about it and said: "After all, it is a sect, how can it be so easy to listen to my dispatch, I still say the same thing, if you can't come to the Taiping Sect in a hurry, you have to figure it out slowly." ”

Qin Su looked at the "clear water cabbage" on the table and asked, "What should I do with this dish?"

Li Xuandu said: "Naturally, it is eaten." I do things with a clear conscience, and I don't do it for others to see, so what should I do, I have my own plan in my heart, so why should I care what he says? If I don't eat, it will seem that my heart is weak. So I not only want to eat, but also invite you to eat, they want to ruin my reputation, even if I go, how can I, Li Xuandu, be a person who is tired of fame? True villains do it, and hypocrites do it. ”

This is where Qin Su likes Li Xuandu, he never pretends to be chic, but he can often reveal a little freedom inadvertently. Qin Su remembered that her mother once said that the reason why some prodigal characters like women is actually simple, that is, they are not serious in ordinary times, but when it comes to critical times, they can be serious in death. Qin Su looked at Li Xuandu again, and couldn't help but think in his heart: "Is he considered to be?"

Li Xuandu had eaten "Qingshui Cabbage", and suddenly sighed: "I'm a person, I never complain, although I have never met my parents, but I don't think I lack anything more than others, I have a master and a brother, and a senior aunt and sister, that is my home." I think God has been kind to me, at least I didn't die in swaddling clothes as soon as I landed. There is no bizarre life experience, nor is there a deep hatred of his parents' family, there is no unforgettable heart of three lives and three lives, and there is no unswerving childhood sweetheart in this life. I never yearn for anything that is dry and rotten, and there is no separation from life to life, because it is all fake, and people's hearts are no match for time, but I want to marry a wife and have children, because this is true, husband and wife support, stay together for a lifetime. In addition to these, I also want to do a little bit for this world, let me die for this world, most of my unwillingness, because I am not a saint, I have selfish intentions. But if I am asked to stand idly by, then I will not be able to do it, because my heart is made of flesh, not of stone. ”

Qin Su was stunned, and then fell silent.

Li Xuan didn't drink, but he was a little drunk, and asked: "At the end of this road, I don't know what kind of scenery it is, I just hope that when I come to the end, there will be no regrets." Su Su, would you like to go down with me?"

Qin Su said softly: "I am willing to go down with you, this is the path you have chosen, and I have chosen you, since it is the path I have chosen, then we must try our best to go to the end, so that even if we fail, we don't have to be angry, we don't have to be ashamed, because we have done our best, we can only say that the destiny is like this." ”
