Chapter 15: Finding a Secluded Spot in the Mountains of Koya (Part 2)
Before the peacock finished speaking, there was a snap on his head, and he took a slap, covered his head and said, "Master, why are you beating me?"
"It's just beating you impatient brat. Cikong Ayanli also knelt on the ground at this moment, put the folding fan that had just hit the peacock in his hand beside him, and casually took out a piece of something from his arms and handed it to the peacock who was still screaming in his mouth, "Take a closer look at this thing." ”
The peacock immediately stopped playing, looked at the serious master, and took the thing suspiciously.
As soon as the fingertips touched, a wave of intimidation and numbness suddenly spread all over the body, as if the hand was about to take over not a small piece of something the size of a fingernail, but a majestic mountain, and that huge feeling of oppression could crush itself in an instant.
The peacock was immediately shocked, his fingers were tied inward, and his left and right thumbs, index fingers, and little fingers were straight and vertical like knives against each other, and shouted in his mouth, "Om, Mo Youluo, Emperor Lan, Suo He!"
This is the mantra of the Great Peacock King, which can break all malice, suppress evil spirits, and maintain clarity.
A burst of white light shone on the peacock's body, and countless crackling sounds sounded, in the white light, it was vaguely as if a huge white peacock turned its body feathers into a holy armor and draped it on the peacock's body, sacred and solemn, the sudden numbness suddenly disappeared, and only a faint coercion remained.
Cikong Ah Yanli looked at everything the peacock did with a complicated face, his eyes contained a lot of things, but he said, "I didn't expect that your Peacock Ming King Fa cultivation progress is so fast, and you can condense the feather armor." I think that in a few years, the name of the No. 1 Demon Exterminator of Koyasan will fall on you, the master is already old, and he can't keep up with you, and he will have to rely on you to take care of him when he gets old in the future. ”
"Master, why do you see you being so polite? Isn't it because Master you taught you so well? But, Master, what is this thing that has such terrifying power left on it?"
"I just said that you are practicing hard, why are you still so sloppy?" Cikong Ah Yanli counted the peacocks lovingly in his mouth, "You take a closer look." ”
The peacock finally got serious, didn't dare to be careless, and took the small piece of mystery with both hands. At this moment, the numbness of things could no longer affect his physical body.
"It's an extraterrestrial meteorite. Why is this texture so familiar? There is the remnant of thunder on it..."Peacock took the metal fragment in his hand and looked at it for a while, then suddenly raised his head and said in surprise, "Wulunfang Thunder Fire Commander! This is Lord Thunder Fire's Evil Breaking Thunder and Lightning Drum! Broken?!"
Cikong Ayanli nodded, "The Thunder Fire Commander has seen the mysterious silver net over Tokyo City during the day. No electronic equipment can get close to the slightest, and those who get too close will be destroyed in an instant, and even the army's fighters can only cruise far away. Under the great sun, all the evil spirits trapped on the silver net dissolved, and he wanted to try what kind of secret the silver net was, but it was not recorded in any classics and scriptures. ”
“... After the Thunder Slash Sword was vaporized, the Thunder Fire Commander was so angry that he used the Evil Destroying Thunder Drum to turn it into what it is now, and he himself was seriously injured. Commander Lan was still calm, saved the thunder fire on the spot, and immediately returned the situation to the adults in the temple to wait for the verdict. Fortunately, she saw the opportunity quickly, otherwise, the team that started the Shingon Sect this time would have been ruined in her own recklessness, making other sects laugh. ”
The peacock shook his head and said, "I can't imagine that a powerful magic weapon that has been inherited for thousands of years will be damaged like this, and Lord Nikko is afraid that he will feel distressed for a while." It's just that the power contained in this is magnificent, and it is also the power of thunder, and I don't know how high it is higher than the Thunder Emperor's mantra led by Thunder and Fire. Listening to what Master said just now, the Thunder Fire Commander just touched the silver net, and this thousand-year-old magic weapon forged by an extraterrestrial meteorite was destroyed in one fell swoop, how terrifying the person who laid the silver net should be..."
Cikong Ayanli nodded, "Compared to the evil ghost city that wants to break out of the hungry ghost road, that silver net is indeed an unimaginable existence. This power is extremely powerful, but I am afraid that it is really a god from another world who has broken through the sky. This ghost city is just a hindrance from him, but he doesn't know what the real purpose of this god is?"
The peacock thought for a moment, but didn't know what he was aware of, "Master, did you say that unknown god would come for our Koyasan?"
Cikong Ayanli was expressionless, "Time is also, life is also." In the middle of the night last night, Lord Yueyu suddenly felt a fluctuation, it was the power of time and space, and he concluded that there must be unknown objects from other worlds breaking through the sky, so he ordered the entire sect to be on guard. This morning, the government and the military teamed up to deliver news from Tokyo, and I realized that something terrible was coming. Immediately and urgently recall you outside, after all, your combat power is also in the forefront of the sect. ”
A beautiful face appeared in the peacock's mind, "Even Tsukiyomi-sama can't know the meaning of that thing?"
"The divine machine is unpredictable~" Cikong Ayanli sighed and said, "Lord Yueyu tried to preview the whereabouts of that person, but he was suddenly counterattacked, and now he is injured and recuperating in the women's hall. Prepare for it, follow me into the mountain, and follow the arrangement of Lord Nikko, and from tonight onwards, we will take on the responsibility of guarding the main mountain of Shingon Buddhism. After all, here are our roots. ”
"The disciple understands~" The peacock made a bitter face, "I just stayed up all night last night to get rid of the demons, and I have to stay up again tonight, I'm really miserable~"
"Hurry up, stinky boy. ”
"Got it, Master~"
The peacock side is preparing to guard the safety of the mountain gate tonight with a sad face, but the two people in the Lianhua Ding Courtyard are leisurely preparing to enjoy the most luxurious food in Koyasan.
Because it is a takeaway, everything is ready and put in a large portable food box with several layers, followed by a small master in the store.
The little chef is very responsible, because it is the most high-end takeaway in the store, the store has provided a detailed tasting process, and he still takes the trouble to introduce the order of the set menu for Lu Xihua and Sakurai Izumi. In his opinion, only by carefully following the explained process can you truly enjoy the flavor of Koyasan cuisine.
The Japanese have done a very good job in terms of service, and even though Izumi Sakurai is originally Japanese, the restaurant still considers that customers may be eating it for the first time, so they provide special on-site explanations.
The essence of the Japanese service industry lies in satisfying the needs of both customers and expecting the best possible experience from the customer's point of view.
After paying for the meal and sending off the responsible little master, Lu Xihua and Izumi Sakurai sat opposite each other on the mat, facing the beautiful mountain scenery next to them, poured sake and draft beer, and began to enjoy the food slowly.
Because it is a package, the content of the two is roughly the same, but there are a little differences in some details.
The first course is called the first payment, which means appetizer side dishes. This dish is made with the freshest ingredients of the season, but the selection of ingredients is based on a basic principle, which is 'low-key luxury', so only one or two cherished ingredients will be kept in this dish.
The selection of content will be different in each store, but today's one uses wormwood tofu and fried and boiled dried fish.
Mugwort tofu, as the name suggests, is made of mugwort, sesame seeds and kudzu root, stirred evenly, and then served with sea urchin, shepherd's cabbage and wasabi, and poured with broth. The turquoise tofu is served with a golden brown pickled sea urchin and a little freshly ground wasabi sauce on the horns. The whole is half-soaked in a clear broth, and there are several sprigs of shepherd's cabbage floating around.
The whole dish is served on a light yellow round plate, Lu Xihua read the introduction on the menu description, this utensil is called the color painted cochin peony dish, very beautiful.
Deep-fried dried small fish, which is fried thoroughly and simmered in kombu broth. This product is served in a small light red bowl, called a small bowl.
Lu Xihua listened to the introduction of Sakurai Izumi reading the explanation and tasted the food.
Mugwort tofu tastes refreshing, especially the natural umami of pickled sea urchin on top greatly enriches the taste of the tofu, and the wasabi sauce licks on the tip of the tongue, giving it an explosive feeling. As for the taste of the stock, Lu Xihua thinks it is dispensable, and the shepherd's cabbage with the stock is served in a shallow dish, probably to make it more exquisite, after all, it is so expensive.
The dried small fish is the kind of small fish that does not grow in the small stream in the countryside of China, and the Xiangjiang region is also called the hairy fish, the meat is thick and the thorns are less, and it is delicious and delicious.
The amount paid up front is not large, that is, it is a matter of a few bites, and in traditional Japanese cuisine, it is an appetizing appetizer.
