Volume 1, Mo Siliang Chapter 16 Sour Soup Dumpling Shop and Visitors
The morning episode passed quickly, and Gu Shuleng had already arrived at a breakfast idea.
It's half a street away from the pharmacy, and if you follow the footsteps of ordinary people, it will take you more than a quarter of an hour.
It took me so long to walk here, if not for anything else, but for breakfast, of course.
This breakfast shop only became famous two years ago, and it is rumored that a kind of "sour soup dumplings" that suddenly appeared with a unique taste almost conquered the appetite of most people in Dongcheng District in half a decade.
Even some dignitaries in the rest of the districts were full of praise.
As a result, almost no one can suppress the momentum of the 'chain stores' launched in the future, such as the unstoppable momentum of soaring.
Although it can't be compared with those clan gate valve industries, it can be regarded as having a place in the first district.
It's a great achievement for a breakfast restaurant to do this.
This "sour soup dumpling" on No. 76 Street in Dongcheng District is the source of the "chain store", and the legend of the past two years began here.
The owner of the shop is a generous man, who has dragged his family and dragged his family to Uehara City for most of his life, and his sudden development in two years does not have the arrogance of a nouveau riche.
is still honest and hands-on, busy with this hard-won belongings, and treats people very kindly as always.
After seeing Gu Shuleng's arrival, his face was even brighter, and the kind of heartfelt pleasure was difficult to hide.
Ordinary people may know that not all streets in the city belong to the government, but are controlled by a local power.
You may also know who the forces that control this street are, but you won't know too much about the true face of the 'master' of this force.
After all, they are just poor people, and in this chaotic world where etiquette and music are broken, most of them live in peace and cautiously, just like a cropper who adheres to one acre and three points of land, and does not dare to jump out of the thunder pool, for fear of getting into trouble.
It's just that this honest boss is different, he once crossed the 'thunder pool' by chance, not only did he not get into trouble, but he got a big opportunity, and he also knew many things that were difficult for outsiders.
Throwing away these factors, the main thing is that this store can have today, and this Gu Caotang hall master has made great contributions.
He came out of the store in person and joked: "Brother Leng, it's rare to come here today, it's not like your guy usually comes to get breakfast." Why, did you encounter a rare good thing?"
It's just that there is a lot of caution in the tone that is difficult to erase.
Gu Shuleng smiled helplessly, and didn't care about this 'honest man' who was usually honest and occasionally a little playful, said hello, and entered the store after a few words.
Although he is indeed greedy, he will come once in a while, but he does not run every day to eat breakfast, and he is usually piggybacked by Gu Caotang's subordinates.
It's rare to have a leisure trip today, one is because the mood is really good. Moreover, after today, he may hardly have the opportunity to come here again from now on and eat an authentic sour soup dumpling.
When he entered the store, Gu Shuleng's footsteps suddenly stopped, his brows furrowed slightly, and he seemed to be considering whether to go in.
The atmosphere suddenly became a little solemn, and the people on the street seemed to become a little stagnant.
This store can be opened to the extent of more than a dozen chains in an urban area, naturally it is not small-scale, and the business can be said to be in full swing, and the only two-story small store is full of people, and the seats are full.
However, there has always been a seat in the store that is specially reserved for him, and Gu Shuleng is naturally not worried about not having a seat.
His pause was due to 'intuition'.
At this moment, there was a chill in my heart, far stronger than last night.
The four realms can be used to condense the mind to sense and take the meaning. It can even lock on to the target with "intention" and give the greatest spiritual pressure, which is why high-ranking monks are often easy to suppress low-level monks.
This is not just the suppression of cultivation, nor is it a simple 'aura', but the real suppression of the mind.
However, the release of that kind of mind is far less powerful than the 'divine thoughts' of the Five Realms, and it destroys the withering and decaying.
The boss saw that this Gu hall master had a solemn expression, and he didn't know what happened to not even step into the small shop, and he was a little uneasy for a while.
He was familiar with most of the words and expressions on that scene, but he didn't guess the mind of this Gu Hall Master.
It's just that he is also familiar with this Gu Hall Master, and he was stunned for a long time before he asked in a low voice, "Mr. Gu, are you...?"
Gu Shuleng regained his expression for a moment, glanced at the boss thoughtfully, and quickly shook his head to say that it was okay.
This time he made a temporary decision, and it is unlikely that it must have been set up in advance.
What's more, he also believes in his own vision.
After experiencing last night's fighting, Gu Caotang was already very vigilant inside and outside, and even before he came here, he had confirmed it again and again.
Unexpectedly, I encountered an unexpected situation again, and it was still at my own 'doorstep'.
He quietly gestured, and sighed with some emotion, in the end, his strength was too weak, and it was really like a soft persimmon that was easy to pinch.
The flow of people on the street seems to have returned to its former prosperity, and people come and go like a river.
He then crossed the threshold and walked into the store without hesitation.
Only instead of walking to his exclusive seat on the second floor, as before, it was a table somewhere on the first floor.
This table in this full-house restaurant is a bit of a standout, and it turns out that one person has an exclusive table.
Like the other guests, the old man in green shirt was served a bowl of his signature sour soup dumplings and a glass of pure water to moisten his throat.
Before and after Gu Shuleng and the shopkeeper came to him, the old man in green shirt still didn't react, and seemed to be unaware. I just buried my head in eating dumplings and took a sip of soup with a spoon.
The boss also seemed to notice that something was wrong, and was about to speak, but was interrupted by Gu Shuleng.
I only heard him say: "Lao Wang, go get a pot of fragrant flowers to brew, I seem to have a fate with this old gentleman." ”
Although the small shop is a breakfast shop, it is qualified to open a chain, and it is not just a simple breakfast.
The old man in the green shirt paused at this time, and suddenly shook his head and spoke, but his voice was a little dull and hoarse, as if he had not talked to anyone for a long time, and it seemed a little jerky. I only heard the old man say: "Zhongshenzhou is almost the world's fragrant flower brew, although the entrance is mellow and gloomy and fragrant, but it is not suitable for my generation. ”
Gu Shuleng smiled when he heard this, motioned to the boss to get the wine, and then sat opposite the old man in the green shirt.
The old man in the green shirt lowered his head again to solve the dumplings in the bowl, and seemed to not care that someone came uninvited.
The two of them kept an eerie quiet, as if they were competing whose patience skills, obviously out of place with the surrounding bustle.
After the boss brought a pot of 'Chong Ma Qu', the old man in the green shirt finally solved the last piece of dumplings, and then took out a handkerchief like a scribe to wipe the corners of his mouth, gentle and elegant.
Perhaps it was the spicy aftertaste of the sour soup, the old man in the green shirt picked up a glass of water on the side and rinsed his mouth, and then sighed nostalgically: "It's really like the taste of my hometown, I have almost a jiazi away from home, and I have recalled the memories of the years many times that I have blurred, but I didn't expect to be able to wake up here." ”
As he spoke, the old man looked at the sour soup in the bowl again, the color and flavor were red, and he sighed again: "It is worthy of being the 'early' that can be included in the flavor recipes of the border state, and I now understand a little bit why Mr. Gu wants to protect this breakfast shop." ”
Gu Shuleng was not surprised that the old man directly revealed his identity, and said with a smile: "Since Mr. Zhao likes it, he will come often." Although this breakfast shop is not my business, I can still talk and help Mr. Zhao reserve a good seat. ”
The old man in the green shirt nodded, shook his head again and said, "Maybe I can come often, but I don't need to leave a place, just follow the fate." ”
Then he stared at Gu Shuleng with a smile, and asked coldly: "I heard that Mr. Gu wants to see the old man, the old man has been sitting for decades and has not had too much contact with outsiders, and no one knows the old man's name, how did you know the existence of the old man?"
At this moment, there seemed to be a sharp edge out of nothing, stabbing Gu Shu's cold heart, like torturing the soul of the Dao heart, making people subconsciously have to answer truthfully.
This kind of hands-on action without warning is even more unexpectedly than a disagreement.
Although Gu Shuleng secretly mentioned the room all the time, he was still in a trance for a moment, and he almost blurted out subconsciously.
It's just that he was out of his mind for a moment, and he immediately returned to his look, and there was no slightest wave.
Although he couldn't easily use his divine thoughts, he would not be easily 'shocked' if he had experienced the scenery of the Five Realms in terms of realm.
Besides, since he knew who was coming, how could he not have prepared and picked up the room in advance.
Gu Shu calmed down, looked at the 'Great Sword Cultivator' who was the most hidden by the Qing Party, and replied, "So Mr. Zhao is here to kill people today?"
The old man in the green shirt was noncommittal, but still stared at Gu Shuleng.
There used to be a lot of people in the store, and it was supposed to be noisy and stuffy, but now it was quiet and chilly.
Gu Shuleng felt like he was in another world.
