Chapter 25 Chapter 25 May I ask Senior Sister, what is crispy duck...
Which tutor’s class consists of gathering together to gossip?
Is this sect serious?
Jiang Yan forced himself to listen for half an hour. He was able to persist purely out of respect for his predecessors.
When he was about to give up, his senior sister and brother finally closed the two thick booklets.
The hot tea on the table was changed twice, and the melon seed shells that Master had cracked out had piled up into a small hill.
"Let's stop here for now. The daily gossip in the cultivation world is really interesting. There is no end to it!" He Huan Zhenren sighed and asked, "My mouth is dry from cracking melon seeds. Is there anything else?"
"Yes, Master, please wait a moment."
Yan Yushan stood up and left the table. When she came back, she was holding a few silver plates filled with various washed and processed spiritual fruits.
She said regretfully, "The conditions on the spaceship are simple. I didn't know that Master would hold a class at the last minute. I was not well prepared. These are all I have."
Jiang Yan: “…”
He Huan Zhenren said: "It doesn't matter."
Yan Yushan said: "But Junior Brother hasn't practiced fasting yet."
"Oh, that's easy to solve. I always have snacks ready."
He Huan Zhenren took out several exquisite snack boxes, but he did not touch them himself. Instead, he pushed them in front of Jiang Yan and instructed him amiably:
"Are you hungry, Yan'er? Don't force yourself to say it. You don't have to stick to the rules in front of us. Eat quickly."
Jiang Yan shook his head slightly: "Master, I'm not hungry, and I have the Qigong Pill."
Bigu pills are so convenient.
It saves time and effort. After taking one pill, he doesn't need to eat for at least three days. He can use the time he spends eating to meditate!
But Master Hehuan was very dissatisfied.
"What's so delicious about the pills? There's no fragrance at all. It's no different from fasting! You're still young, don't get into the bad habit of skipping meals just to cultivate."
He stared at Jiang Yan with an expression that said "your boss thinks you're hungry" and kept urging his young son to eat.
Jiang Yan had no choice but to hold the snack and take a few bites.
Only then did Master Hehuan relax his expression.
Perhaps it was because the filter was too thick, the three people watching Jiang Yan chewing on snacks were like seeing some furry little animal eating with its head down, and each expression was more kind than the other.
"There is a family in Anshui Town who are very skilled in cooking. Their roast chicken is even more delicious than Zuixianlou's. They have a limited supply each day, and it's gone after noon. When you go back, I'll see my senior brother grab one for you!"
Fan Yang was very excited and inexplicably passionate.
Jiang Yan quickly said: "Thank you, Senior Brother, but..."
He Huan Zhenren disagreed, "The roast chicken there is good, but I think the beggar's chicken next door is the best. If you want to take Yan'er there, why not go next door?"
Fan Yang: "Master, that one is also limited."
Master He Huan: "Can't you go earlier?"
Fan Yang: "That's fine, we can buy it together then."
Jiang Yan: "Thank you, but..."
Can you let me finish what I'm saying?
Yan Yushan chuckled, spoke faster than he thought, and said casually:
"If you ask me, none of them are as good as crispy duck literature. Last time, the book stalls in the west of the city and the restaurants held a promotion, buying a crispy duck and giving away a crispy duck book, the scene was so lively."
Others were surprised. How could this be said?
He Huan Zhenren: "Yu Shan!"
Fan Yang: "Senior Sister!"
The two of them spoke at the same time, and winked at the same time, signaling her to shut up quickly, seeming to be very nervous.
Yan Yushan didn't take it seriously. They had said and heard some of the most vicious words before, so what?
Yan Yushan followed their line of sight, turned her head, and saw her junior brother with clear eyes, listening to them attentively.
Jiang Yan held the pen and asked curiously: "Senior Sister, what is crispy duck literature?"
Finally I encountered a noun that I didn’t understand.
I feel like I can take notes now.
Yan Yushan panicked instantly: "Junior brother! It was my fault, just pretend you didn't hear anything!"
There's nothing wrong with listening to this.
Jiang Yan thought about it and suddenly realized: "Senior sister, are you referring to the use of the wrong quantifier? Everyone makes mistakes sometimes, so there is no need to panic."
He kindly reminded: "Buy a duck and get a free duck, so don't make the mistake again, Senior Sister."
“…………”
Good tiger and wolf sentences.
What kind of duck is this?
Is it an animal, a book, or a person?
The three senior predecessors of the Hehuan Sect now regretted that they had too much experience and hoped that the next time they would understand Zi Wei Dou Shu in seconds.
Those who understood fell silent.
The person who didn't understand finally found a chance and replied seriously: "Thank you for your kindness, but I don't have an obsession with meat dishes. Don't go to so much trouble for me. It's too much trouble for you."
Everyone: “…”
Yan'er is such a pure baby.
It makes them feel so guilty.
Jiang Yan asked curiously, "What's wrong?"
He Huan Zhenren coughed lightly and changed the subject, "What does Yan'er usually eat?"
"Bigu Pill." Jiang Yan answered immediately.
He Huan Zhenren: "...Except for the Bigu Pill!"
Jiang Yan thought for a moment and said, "Fruits and vegetables, maybe."
He took out a few fruits from the ring, washed them on the spot with clean water, and gave one to each of the three elders.
The fruit is crystal clear, plump, and the skin is so thin that it seems like it will break with a poke.
Master Hehuan looked around and even held up the fruit to look at the light.
It can actually let light through, and it doesn’t look like a fruit, but more like crystal.
It is a variety I have never seen before. It is very beautiful. I can feel the spiritual energy contained in it when I hold it in my palm. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is a fairy fruit that can only be found in the fairyland.
The three of them were amazed.
"What is this?" asked Master Hehuan.
"The fruit produced by my tribe is called Elf Fruit. It is good for the health of mortals and can also increase the spiritual power of cultivators, but not much." Jiang Yan said.
Similarly, it can also increase the magic power of a magician. But since there is no magician besides him, there is no need to say it.
"It sounds like a rare spiritual fruit." Zhenren Hehuan became interested.
Jiang Yan wanted to say something but stopped.
This thing is rare and very valuable in the outside world, but it can be seen everywhere among the elves, and there are many of them growing on the trees on both sides of the road.
Originally it existed like a wild fruit, without even a name.
Jiang's mother suddenly had an idea. She gave it the title of "elf" and used hunger marketing to successfully hype up the wild fruit into a spiritual fruit with a sky-high price.
A huge profit.
"You guys try it." Jiang Yan said.
Zhenren Hehuan and others did as they were told.
The fruit tastes sweet and not sour at all. It is a bit soft when you pinch it, but it is crispy when you bite it, with a very unique taste.
After entering the stomach, one can clearly feel the spiritual power in the dantian increasing slightly.
"It tastes great." Everyone praised.
"If we can sell it, it will definitely fetch a good price." Fan Yang said casually.
Jiang Yan's eyes lit up, as if he was thinking about something.
Yes.
Although he is very rich, he doesn't know how long he will stay here, and he can't just live off his wealth.
I don’t know if the land here can grow elf fruit. If it can, and I can learn my mother’s hunger marketing tactics, it might be a good way to make money.
Master Hehuan doesn't care about the value of the fruit, he cares about something else.
"Elf...it's really a very appropriate title."
He Huan Zhenren said with emotion: "It seems that Yan'er is also an elf, very cute."
Jiang Yan: “!!”
Jiang Yan was surprised: "Master, why do you say that?"
He Huan Zhenren said cheerfully, "Because you grew up drinking dew and eating fairy fruit. That fruit is also called fairy fruit. If you are not a fairy in the forest, then what are you?"
Jiang Yan: “…”
Scare him.
I thought Master knew something.
Jiang Yan explained: "It's not that I don't eat meat at all, I just don't want you to run around for me."
After all, the roast chicken and beggar's chicken in those two stores sound difficult to buy.
"I eat everything. I'm not picky about food." Jiang Yan emphasized.
How to grow taller without combining meat and vegetables!
Jiang Yan, who is 1.78 meters tall, is somewhat obsessed with the last two centimeters.
Unfortunately, no matter how many years of eating a combination of meat and vegetables, I still couldn't break through the last two centimeters, so I had to give up with reluctance.
The way the three of them looked at Jiang Yan was no longer kind, but loving.
Both gentle and loving.
He Huan Zhenren: "Yeah, he is a good child who is not picky about food."
Fan Yang: "So cute..."
Yan Yushan said domineeringly: "When the bookstall holds activities in the future, Senior Sister will watch the crispy duck and you will eat the crispy duck. If I have one, you will have one!"
Jiang Yan: ???
Why?
Isn't this a disrespect to teachers and fellow students?
"Sister, you can't do that!"
Jiang Yan straightened his expression and said righteously, "If there is only one roast duck, I would like to give it to Senior Sister! Senior Sister is an elder and she loves me so much, how can I let you watch from the side?"
Three people: "..."
Is it really okay for this child to enter the Hehuan Sect? !
Yan Yushan choked for a long time, and finally recovered, tears welling in her eyes as she said, "Good junior brother, I was right about you! From now on, I will take you to the east of the city to eat real roast duck. Remember, don't even take a step near the bookstall in the west of the city."
Jiang Yan didn't understand why, but he agreed obediently.
He picked up the pen again and smoothed out the white paper.
I asked, "Senior Sister, but you haven't said what crispy duck literature means."
Yan Yushan: “…”
She forced herself to hold on to her shaky sanity, opened her eyes and spoke nonsense: "It's just a way to make roast duck!"
Jiang Yan suddenly realized!
Got it.
“It’s a recipe,” he said.
Master Hehuan, who was listening, held his forehead in pain.
You two should shut up.
It’s unfortunate for our master, how unfortunate!
**
Jiang Yan spent the rest of the voyage peacefully.
When the spaceship arrived at the Hehuan Sect, he deliberately changed into a new set of clothes under the guidance of his master.
The clothes are mainly silver-white, which matches Jiang Yan's face and temperament, making him look like the distant Milky Way, or like the lotus on the snow-capped mountains or the flowers on the high hills, which are within reach but out of reach.
As long as he doesn't speak.
He Huan Zhenren warned earnestly: "No matter who talks to you, you must have a cold and arrogant expression and ignore them. Even if you respond, it must be as brief as possible, understand?"
Jiang Yan hesitated: "This is impolite..."
He Huan Zhenren: "Politeness is useless! They are all cunning people. As soon as you open your mouth, they will know that you are no different from a child!"
Jiang Yan retorted: "Master, I am really an adult now."
He Huan Zhenren choked up and said with great sorrow: "Look, that's it!"
Jiang Yan really didn't understand what was wrong with his answer.
He Huan Zhenren tried his best to persuade him: "I am creating a cool and aloof personality for you, you know? Flowers from the high mountains are the hardest to pick. As long as you are cool enough, no one will dare to provoke you or talk nonsense in front of you."
Jiang Yan actually didn’t understand what “personality” meant.
But he felt the Master's sincere love and earnest teachings.
Jiang Yan is very sensitive to malice. Ever since he met Master Hehuan, he has never felt any malice from his master.
Master is doing this for his own good from the bottom of his heart.
Jiang Yan responded seriously: "Yes, Master, I will do it."
He Huan Zhenren patted him on the shoulder and said, "Good boy, when you grow up a few years and fall into the dye vat, you will understand."
In the Hehuan Sect, you can be so aloof that you have no friends, but you cannot be so naive that you don’t know how to practice Dual Cultivation.
Jiang Yan really wanted to say that he was very good at martial arts and would never fall into the dye vat.
Master Hehuan didn't give him a chance to speak. He grabbed him and carefully adjusted Jiang Yan's hairstyle and clothes. He even gave him detailed instructions on how to hold a sword.
Jiang Yan's limbs were so stiff that he almost didn't know what to do.
"Master, are you done?" Fan Yang poked his head out and urged, "Senior Sister has already taken the others away, and we are the only ones left."
He Huan Zhenren smoothed the last piece of his clothes, clapped his hands, and said with satisfaction: "Let's go!"
Fan Yang praised: "Junior brother is so handsome, he will surely stun everyone."
He Huan Zhenren rebuked: "That's arrogant!"
Fan Yang understood: "Master, rest assured, I will publicize my junior brother like this."
Jiang Yan: “…”
Does it have to be like this?
You guys are really weird.
Jiang Yan had no say in this matter, so he could only follow his master and senior brothers down the spaceship silently.
Jiang Yan had sharp ears. As soon as he approached the exit of the spacecraft, he heard the crowd talking.
"Why don't you come out yet!"
"Could it be that our junior brother has deceived us? He has not accepted any disciples at all, and he is just trying to cheat and not go out to perform his duties!"
"Master, don't worry. Uncle Master hasn't accepted any disciples for 400 years, but he made an exception now. This shows that Jiang Xianjun must be a rare talent!"
"Not necessarily. Maybe someone whose personality and living habits are very much to the real person's liking."
"That's right! Maybe everyone overslept and missed the time to disembark."
Jiang Yan: “???”
What a mess.
Jiang Yan subconsciously slowed down his pace, vaguely resisting walking out of the corridor.
But it was too late. The group of people who had been waiting eagerly had already seen them and rushed over.
Jiang Yan:!!!
People, so many people.
There were so many people staring at him with inexplicable, passionate, weird, gratified... eyes!
Jiang Yan suddenly felt a little panicked.
He Huan Zhenren began to introduce:
"This is your junior uncle."
"This is Master Uncle."
"This is Master's eldest disciple. You should call him Senior Brother."
"This is……"
Just like meeting relatives during the Chinese New Year, people line up to recognize their relatives.
Face after face passed by Jiang Yan. He even saw Senior Brother Fei, who had abducted Master Wuxin from the Taixu Temple next door.
Everyone was extremely enthusiastic. If the teacher had not rejected them verbally, they would have even wanted to pinch Jiang Yan's face and praise him by saying "What a handsome boy".
Help!
Jiang Yan gradually felt suffocated, feeling that in just fifteen minutes, he had used up all his social quota for meeting strangers in the next five years.
He unconsciously gripped the Demon-Breaking Sword tighter, his face was tense, and he didn't speak easily.
There are lessons to be learned.
After he asked his uncle how old he was, his uncle spent three minutes chatting with him.
Jiang Yan successfully completed the task entrusted by Master He Huan, and even did it more perfectly.
But no one said he was impolite.
All people have to ask is: "Why doesn't he like to talk?"
He Huan Zhenren replied: "I have a cold temper. I was born like this."
Everyone will suddenly realize and laugh together:
"I see! Cool beauties are great."
"No wonder when I saw it from a distance, I thought it was some immortal from the fairyland descending to earth."
"Yan'er really respects teachers. Although he doesn't like to talk, he didn't show any impatience when he forced himself to answer the teacher's question just now."
"Stop surrounding him!"
Everyone was talking and laughing, but they quickly dispersed, and no one forced Jiang Yan to reply.
Jiang Yan admired Master He Huan more and more and respected him from the bottom of his heart.
He had wronged his master before, but his master had even anticipated this!
So awesome!
