Volume 1 The Wind Rises in Lingzhou Chapter 8 A pair of bamboo chopsticks
Unlike the courtyard that is full of murderous aura at the moment, in the kitchen on the left side of the Liuyun courtyard at this moment, there is a woman who looks about seventeen or eighteen years old preparing today's dinner.
This young woman is the cardinal.
At this moment, on the long table made of a large wooden board in the kitchen, two plates of cooked side dishes can already be seen on it.
The side dishes are fragrant and the heat rolls back.
Both plates are very simple farm dishes, and the raw materials of these vegetables are purchased by the outer disciples of the sect from the farmers at the bottom of the mountain every day, but because it is now in the middle of February, the varieties of vegetables that the farmers can harvest are really limited, but even so, these vegetables can still be cooked into extraordinarily delicate and delicious dishes after passing through the hands of the cardinals, which makes people can't help but have a great appetite.
Today's dinner is the same as usual, the Cardinal is still only ready to cook three dishes and one soup, this is a habit she has developed over the years, she does not want to change, and no matter what she cooks, the quantity is very well controlled, that is, there will be no leftovers, and there will be not enough to eat, each time to meet the amount of food for two people.
This was something she could do a long time ago when she was still that person's maid, and now that she was ordered to become Xu Yan's maid, the same is true.
It only took about a quarter of an hour to fry the two side dishes, and the cardinal had already perfected her cooking skills, and as for the broth in the three dishes and one soup, she stewed in a crockpot on a nearby stove in a while, and could take them down and drink them at any time, but she still planned to finish the last dish in her hand and put them in a bowl.
After washing the iron pot that had just finished frying with a mountain spring, it was not long before the wood fire dried the water on the surface of the pot, and Cardinal took out a clay pot oil bottle placed in the corner of the stove, poured some vegetable oil into the pot, and then picked up a porcelain bowl in her left hand.
In the porcelain bowl was an egg that she had stirred evenly, mixed with a few small green onions that had been cut into long and short pieces, and this was the last dish she was going to make today.
Fried egg with chopped green onions.
When the time passed for almost four or five breaths, the vegetable oil in the pot was gradually roasted by the firewood, and when the cardinal saw this, she wanted to pour the eggs into it, because she was afraid that after the vegetable oil was burned too strongly, the eggs would be fried too burnt at once, which would affect the taste.
However, just as she lifted the porcelain bowl and stretched it out over the iron pot, there was a sudden loud noise in the patio, and the whole kitchen was slammed into a tremble.
Feeling the majestic sword aura coming from the patio, the cardinal frowned, stopped the action of continuing to fry the eggs, she gently lowered the porcelain bowl containing the eggs, and cast her eyes on the patio outside the kitchen.
When she cooks, she has always been very attentive and doesn't like to be disturbed, because she firmly believes that only by cooking with her heart and mind and serious attitude can she make them taste the best, so she is actually very angry when she is repeatedly disturbed like today.
So, in her eyes, which were as clean as spring water, she finally couldn't help but have a trace of anger.
......
Xu Yan took the other party's sudden blow head-on, and the whole person was already injured, his right hand was bleeding and trembling, but what really injured him was the power of thunder and lightning that drilled into his body.
Fortunately, the power of thunder and lightning only lasted in his body for a few moments before he cleared it out.
Xu Yan gasped for a long time on the pillar before he moved his back and stood up again, his right hand was still clenched in Fuyao, but no one knew that the injury at his tiger's mouth had quickly improved, at least it had stopped bleeding.
Seeing that Xu Yan was still able to get up under his sudden decision, Zhou Xian's pale face was as pale as snow, and he couldn't describe what kind of expression it was. Continuously using the 'disease', 'wind' and 'sudden' in the four-character sword technique, the pressure on him is also not small, for example, the strength in his body has consumed most of it, but he still did not let the other party fall.
Zhou Xian took a deep breath, he really didn't know what to say, and finally he gritted his teeth and held back this sentence, "The surname is Xu, you are really hard bones!"
Xu Yan was expressionless, walked back to his original position with a sway in his hand, and replied coldly: "While you still have a chance, if you still have any sword moves, you might as well use them all." ”
When Zhou Xian heard this, he was furious, and said with a pale face: "Okay, you have a kind, next sword, I want to see if you can still take it so leisurely." ”
"Rain!"
Zhou Xian spit out another word.
First there is 'disease', 'wind' and 'sudden', and now there is another word, 'rain'.
Four-character sword trick, wind and rain!
In the courtyard, as soon as the word 'rain' came out of Zhou Xian's mouth, the red candle disappeared completely, and then in the dim sky, a sword light lit up, but immediately after this sword light, ten or a hundred sword qi appeared out of thin air.
The hundred sword qi took that sword light as the core and arranged them in a array.
Where the sword blade was pointing was Xu Yan not far away.
Zhou Xian suddenly shouted: "Chop!"
Hundreds of dense sword qi suddenly burst towards Xu Yan as if he had been instructed.
The last rain word of the four-character sword trick.
At this moment, set off a rain of swords!
......
At the same time, on the top of a mountain closest to the main peak of the Little Lotus Peak, an old man who was sitting and meditating suddenly opened his eyes, he looked at the main peak, and after seeing the hundreds of sword qi that were pressed by the black pressure, his face suddenly turned pale, and he shouted in a low voice: "What nonsense!"
Immediately, his body rose from the ground, and a long sword flew to his feet, instantly magnifying several times.
The old man stepped on the giant sword and flew straight towards the main peak.
......
Like this old man, on the main peak of the Lotus Sect, in a place called Qixingdun, at this moment, there was also a middle-aged man who cast his eyes on the Liuyun courtyard at the 'foot of the mountain', but he just glanced at it and withdrew his gaze.
......
In the courtyard of the Liuyun Courtyard, after Zhou Xian used the rain word like the bottom of the box, the sword qi in the sky covered the sky, making the sky that was already close to twilight even darker.
Zhou Xian looked at the hundred swords he had created, and he didn't care about the consequences of whether he would kill the other party, and at this moment, the desire to win in his heart had already replaced all reason.
He looked at Xu Yan's lonely figure as if he was in a storm, felt a little relieved for no reason, and said softly: "It's finally over." ”
On the other hand, Xu Yan, after seeing so many sword qi attacking him at the same time, knew that it was absolutely impossible for him to take them unscathed, so he urged the Fuyao in his hand to condense the little bit of energy left in his body on the sword body.
Fu Shao's hand trembled violently, and at the same time, a wisp of trembling sound like a cicada sounded on it.
Xu Yan was about to draw his sword and slash out, but then he was instantly engulfed by a gust of wind that suddenly blew in the patio.
The strength of the wind was so strong that Xu Yan and all the Chunzi Sect disciples present couldn't open their eyes, so no one could see that in the midst of this wind, there was a pair of bamboo chopsticks shooting out of thin air into the hundred sword qi, the only sword light with a little brightness.
After a bamboo chopstick collided with the sword light, it quietly turned into powder, but the sword light dimmed at least half of the light because of this.
Zhou Xian, who was controlling the red candle with all his might, couldn't help but spit out a large mouthful of scarlet from his mouth.
Immediately after, another bamboo chopstick hit the sword light again.
The sword light was finally overwhelmed, and it flew out directly from the impact, turning into the original red candle.
The sword qi in the sky dissipated.
After the red candle fell to the ground, Zhou Xian's body was even more like a cannonball, and he was directly blasted out of this Liuyun courtyard.
The gale receded.
The whole courtyard was silent.
In the courtyard, it was as if nothing had happened, leaving only a group of disciples of the Chunzi Sect, looking at each other.
"Get out!"
A voice as crisp as a yellow oriole took the lead in breaking the silence and reached the ears of every Chunzi Sect disciple present.
The sound was like thunder in the ears, setting off a stormy wave.
When more than a dozen inner disciples of the Chunzi Sect heard this, they immediately fled in droves, and they didn't even bother to pick up the red candle.
In the blink of an eye, only Xu Yan was left in the patio.
