Chapter 9: Guests
There were a bunch of dishes on the table continuously, and Han Kunyun realized that he seemed to know very little about the food of this world, but they were all boiled and baked, and there was no stir-frying?
"Objectively, this is boiled colored jade chicken, this is steamed minnow (tiao) fish, this is roasted rat, all of which are fresh ingredients transported from the Northern Wilderness in the morning. β
The little two of the four-handed family shop served the food and wine quickly, and his mouth seemed to be explaining as if he was reading a tongue twister: "And it is also seasoned with precious spices, and the preservation is satisfactory." β
"I'll taste it first. β
Han Kunyun picked up the chopsticks and picked up a piece of chicken, the heat was very good, and he could tear off the meat with a slight effort, he stuffed it into his mouth, it was delicious and tender, nothing more, only a faint salty taste, and the taste of the ingredients themselves was great, but for Han Kunyun, who had tasted all kinds of industrialized seasonings in contemporary cuisine, it could only be regarded as earthy and fresh.
Quietly ate the fish again, the taste is about the same, it is bland, and it depends on the taste of the ingredients themselves to win, it seems that there is no hope for the food of this world.
Although these dishes have been made exquisitely and deliciously, due to the limitations of the recipe and seasoning, it seems that the pursuit of maximizing the taste of the ingredients themselves rather than borrowing manpower to mediate, a bit of a Japanese style of rejection.
As it is mentioned, the Japanese-style blocking is also borrowed from the formation of China, because of material scarcity, and this world does not look like material scarcity, but about ...... And usually too short?
"January, what do you think?" After tasting a few dishes, Han Kunyun looked at the little maid and asked.
"The best tasty. "The ghost lady's face is slightly red, because she has eaten several bites.
"Just eat it, reward!"
Han Kunyun smiled, although it was not as rich as the taste of the barbecue and stir-fried vegetables that he had tried out by himself, but he had not eaten a meal for many years, and this meal could be regarded as a meat.
This time, January was also very happy, and the broken jade was a little bigger, and it could be seen that she was really porridge.
"Aren't all four of your sisters coming out?"
After eating for a while, Han Kunyun asked curiously.
"The five of us are one, and when we resist the evil spirit, the four of them have turned off their five senses, and they need to recover their abilities after a while. January Qingli's face was a little regretful, and she said in a soft tone: "If it weren't for Mr. to rescue, I'm afraid we would have fallen into the devil's path and become a madman without self-awareness." β
"Since you are already a servant, do not say such things. Han Kunyun said with a smile.
"Yes, sir. January replied with a look of relief.
A meal, full of wine and food, settle the account, under the enthusiastic eyes of the shopkeeper and a ghost back to the street, if you calculate according to the contemporary time, about ten o'clock at the mercy of the street, the street is dominated by human races, and you have no intention of seeing the poor shape of the foreigners.
Han Kunyun stepped on the greed, and sat beside him quietly waiting for the entrustment.
"I want to go to Zhongzhou Academy, do you have any suggestions for January?" Han Kunyun looked up into the distance.
All Zhongzhou City is entangled in the establishment of Zhongzhou School, and the huge beam archway stands there like two pillars supporting the sky, not to mention the huge tower that stands in the clouds on the back, and the buildings and palaces under the tower.
"Sir can pay a direct visit to the dean, and he will welcome you warmly. "When I heard it in January, I said it rightly.
"But I don't understand him. After hearing this, Han Kunyun asked, "Why did he welcome me?"
"Because the gentleman is a strong man. January's tone and his firm reply.
"Strongman?"
Han Kunyun rubbed it, mentioning that what Mr. Lai said about the immortal walking all over the land didn't seem to be like that, since he entered the city, he noticed that there were very few people who even had vitality into the body, most of them were ordinary people, and there were few martial artists.
Just walked forward a little bit at random, and Han Canqian saw an industry that he just needed, Yaxing! is also a contemporary intermediary.
"Let's go, let's go and finalize where to live first, and then we'll have a long discussion. Han Kunyun had a decision in his heart.
If the gentleman is still alive, then he will be fine even if he looks for it again after a while, and if the gentleman is dead, then it will all be floating clouds, and he still has to live himself.
And what he needs to do most now is to find out what the world is like first, he was brought into the mountains by Mr. not long after he came here, and all he knows about this world is Mr. Experience, more than a thousand years have passed, and the ghost knows what Mr. said has happened.
"That's what the gentleman said. January didn't argue, nodded and smiled.
It's just that greed didn't take two steps, Han Kunyun reached out and pressed its skull, and January beside him also felt the difference, and a grand, sacred, and majestic smell flashed away, just for a moment, it made her whole person seem to be crushed, and she looked at the person next to her with fear.
"I'm sorry. Han Kunyun's fingertips raised a fluorescent dot on January's arm, and after watching the girl's expression improve, Shi Shiran said, "It seems that I really want to go directly to Zhongzhou Academy." β
"Sir?" January held her chest, the fluorescent light seemed to have magical power, making her body circulate instantly, because the strength that had been descended by the evil qi infection over the years had actually recovered a little.
"Let's go. Han Kunyun didn't answer, because he himself looked confused.
Just at the right moment, he actually noticed something in his body, a thing that made him feel heartbroken, but he didn't expect this thing to continue in his body, no wonder he felt a strange force in his body when he cultivated over the years, and he had an epiphany in an instant.
The street is still bustling, the greedy pug is not special, there is no intention to double the appearance of strange beasts passing by, two people and a beast along the street about a time, the archway of Zhongzhou School is suddenly in front of you.
Passing by a street again, the surroundings suddenly realized, a huge square perceived, surrounded by a flat earth, like a whole, the end of the square is the gate of the school, in the middle is a huge statue, that is a long-bearded old man, dressed as an ordinary civilian, looking up at the sky, facial features are like in front of him, like flesh and blood, just a statue, but it seems to be a real person standing there.
"Sir, this is the Dean. January looked at him and said, "He's very good, and he's the best." β
"Looks like you have a good impression of him. Han Kunyun laughed and said, the abnormal movement in his body became doubly violent, as if he was about to get out: "Let's go." β
"Alien beasts must be registered. β
Just as Gluttony had just taken a step, a tall girl in a black brocade robe, with ink embroidered on her chest, and strange wooden gauntlets on her arms, came over and shouted with several young men in black brocade robes.
At the entrance of the square, Han Kunyun rode on top of greed, looking at the girl in front of him, the other party had his hair coiled up, wearing a crown and hat, and his temperament was the most aggressive, with a bit of a fierce smell that only men have.
It's just that the facial features are the most beautiful, just like the beautiful girlfriends of friends, big eyes, small faces, and delicate nose bridges, and there are two pink colors on the face, which is a very conflicting difference, but it makes people shine in front of them.
"Then I'll let it wait here, no problem, right?" Han Kunyun jumped down with a smile and asked greedily.
"If you come to sign up, then the best thing is to register, if you just come to visit, then you can choose to put it. Jia said in a voice that was not arrogant or impatient.
"Thanks for the hint, I'm just going to take a look. β
Han Kunyun patted his greedy head and said, "Then put it with you first?"
"This ...... Okay, too. Jia said with some unpleasant meaning at this time: "The deposit fee is ten silver, don't be too expensive, we have to work your strange beast, this strange beast is not ordinary at first glance, and we are also for your guarantee." β
Han Kunyun smiled and nodded, it seems that he is really a protΓ©gΓ©, and it is so unbeautiful to ask for money: "January, give money." β
"Yes, sir. January smiled lightly, facing a group of verdant protΓ©gΓ©s, it felt really funny.
Jia was stunned and looked at the broken jade handed over, and hesitated for a moment before taking it: "My name is Mo Yin, this is your alien beast access card, don't lose it, it's very tiring to build, yes......! I can only find you nine gold for this broken jade, don't say that I take advantage of you. β
"It doesn't matter, then I can go in. β
"Please!"
When Mo Yin heard it, he knew that he had met a local tyrant, and muttered in his heart that he had money to make Brother Lang wear such ordinary clothes?
Han Kunyun walked slowly towards the archway, the greed behind him whimpered, and he just lay on the ground and began to nap, the ink sound near the left didn't know why, she felt a sense of fear, she took a deep look at greed, what kind of breed.
Passing by the statue, Han Kunyun looked up at the statue's eyes, and in a moment, he felt that someone was peeping.
"Dean?" Han Kunyun muttered, and continued to stride forward, only then did he realize that this square was really a bit outrageous, three football fields, I am afraid that there are more than that, and I don't know what it is used for.
After walking like this for a while, Han Can, who arrived at the bottom of the archway, realized that there were a bunch of stalls here, and there was a signboard in front of each stall.
'Confucianism, Soldiers, Taoism, Mohists, Martial Artists, Runes, Legalists, Novelists, ......
At a glance, there are dozens of stalls, and the largest of them are these eight, the rest are a wooden sign, a square table, and the only eight are pergolas.
"Brother, are you here to sign up?"
Just as Han Kunyun was investigating, a tall and thin man jumped out next to him and said the most familiar.
"Come and see. Han Kunyun replied indifferently.
"Just look at it. When the tall and thin man heard this, he immediately smiled and said: "Zhongzhou School is famous all over the world, and my friends know that studying here can be superior to others, what is it to learn, why people are better than ordinary people after coming out of here, but few people know." β
"So, brother, do you understand?" asked Han Kunyun with fun.
"I do, I don't understand much. The tall and thin man arched his hand and said: "Officially Mao Sui recommend myself, my name is Fushimi, a civilian in the division twenty miles outside the city, a part-time tour guide, brother Tai can ask me if you have any questions about Zhongzhou School, for the sake of me answering for you, please give a little treatment." β
"Hahaha, that's good. Han Kunyun didn't expect this kind of industry to be derived from this world, and it was so well-behaved, much better than those forced dumping sales: "What's going on with these branches?"
"Zhongzhou Academy is divided into thirty-two courtyards, with Taoism, Confucianism, Law, Mo, Bing, Wu, Rune, and Miscellaneous eight courtyards being the hottest spots, and the remaining twenty-four are all factions derived over the years, each with its own strengths, but the most reliable eight courtyards, because they have a complete heritage. Fushimi's tone was clear, and he said briskly: "If Brother Tai wants to follow the text, the Taoist Confucianism is short-term and long-term, the Confucian self-cultivation governs the country and the world, the Legalists enforce the law like a mountain, and most of the officials are out of this courtyard, so they don't recruit people very much, the words of the Mo family...... I heard that they are interested in what is not aggression and love, and they pursue the unity of the world. β
"Taoism is remote and mediocre, heaven and man are one, the soldiers are arbitrary, and what comes out are the objects of competition in various states, runes make a fortune, and you have to study it at the beginning, and it costs a lot of money in the early stage, and it is exquisite, and the miscellaneous families are eye-catching and the people's livelihood camps, most of which are selected by dealers. β
"But I don't think the miscellaneous family is as big as the novelist's card field. β
Han Kunyun asked with a puzzled look.
The remaining seven of the eight friends are pergolas, and the only miscellaneous house is still a stall, next to the novelist, this stall is a little exquisite, with a luxurious carpet, a golden silk nanmu table, and incense is lit on the table, and the usher sitting at the table is also dressed in a black brocade with gold silk edges, and at first glance he is a rich man.
"This ...... Novelist ......" Fushimi said with a somewhat treacherous expression: "The novelist was founded nine hundred years ago, the founder and the dean have a lot to do with it, I heard that it is a prominent link in the Zhongzhou School, after the founder was lost, the novelist's teachings and inheritance were perceived by the broken dynasty, and there was no character who could carry the crown, because of the particularity of this department, so it was continuously in the status of the eight majors." β
"That's right. Han Kunyun glanced at these stalls, and roughly understood the teaching method here, how did he feel a sense of immediacy.
Fushimi looked at Han Kunyun with a blank look, and said in his heart, Brother Lang, don't be stunned, continue to ask!
"January, repay. β
At this time, Han Can smiled and said, "I am very satisfied with his reply." β
January, who was about to let go of his hand, was stunned, and then put his hand into his sleeve and tested it again, and finally took out a broken jade the size of a quail egg: "Mr. Porridge, your explanation, this is the treatment for you." β
"This ...... This...... Many...... Thanks a lot. Fushimi looked at it with straight eyes, and wanted to be polite, but this thing was too confusing, and he couldn't even speak clearly, so he took the jade and stuffed it into his arms, the pocket of his underwear.
"I still want to know a question, what is that tower for?" Han Kunyun asked as he looked up at the tall tower standing in the place where Buzhou Mountain was broken.
"Called Zhongzhou Tower, Zhongzhou School talks about the audit and promotion system, from low to high nine products, one tower and one product, nine layers and nine products, three products can be outside the officials, five products can be sealed and worshipped, seven products are more than one party leader, eight products have not been seen, nine products...... Unheard-of. Fushimi replied quickly: "In fact, most people come for the second-grade audit, as long as there is this, no matter where you go, you will be treated as a guest, and no one can question the audit of Zhongzhou School." β
