"Mr. Lu actually made so much braised pork?"
Mrs. Wei looked at the red, shiny piece of meat that night and said with some surprise.
"Madam, you said this is braised pork?" Wei Xinghe asked, "Why is it different from what you make at home?"
"The dishes cooked by Young Master Lu are quite different from those cooked by others. The chefs in our house can never make meat this shiny and red."
Mrs. Wei said with some regret.
Two or three years ago, she was rescued from the mountains by Lu Qing. After arriving in Jiuli Village, the first meal she had included braised pork.
She has always remembered that feeling.
Later, he asked Lu Qing for the recipe, but for some reason, the chefs in the mansion could never make meat as beautiful as Lu Qing's, and even the taste was worse.
"It's probably because of the seasoning." The old doctor laughed, "Ah Qing always likes to tinker with some strange seasonings, so the taste is a little different."
"It should be. In the recipe given by Young Master Lu, the soy sauce ingredient is something the chef in the mansion has never figured out."
"I remember Ah Qing seemed to have done quite a lot before. Madam, you can ask him for some when the time comes."
As they chatted, dishes continued to arrive.
Steamed fish, boiled chicken, stir-fried beef, mutton soup...
Dishes were placed on the table, with all kinds of flavors available.
Not only is the presentation neat, but the portion is also generous.
After all the dishes were served, two more villagers brought up a large steamer.
The steamer is steaming and wafting out a fragrant aroma.
Anyone who smells it will feel their head cleared and refreshed.
“This fragrance…”
Wei Xinghe and Wei Shanhai both looked at the steamer in surprise.
As they were powerful people in the innate realm, when they smelled the fragrance just now, they actually felt their bodies lighten, and the speed of the internal energy in their bodies increased a little.
What is steaming in here? Just the smell can actually improve the cultivation level of strong men like them.
There was no need for Wei Shanhai and the others to ask questions, as the villager who carried the steamer up revealed the answer.
When I opened the lid of the steamer, I saw a basket of crystal clear rice with distinct grains that were steamed to perfection.
What’s even more peculiar is that the rice is snow-white and crystal clear, with hints of golden light, which looks extremely delicious.
"This is the spiritual rice that Ah Qing planted a while ago. The spiritual grain was harvested yesterday, and he wanted to invite everyone to taste this spiritual rice."
The old doctor said with a smile.
When Lu Qing was shelling the spiritual rice yesterday, he had seen what the spiritual rice looked like, so he was not surprised this time.
"Is this the spiritual rice that Young Master Lu has been busy growing recently?"
Wei Xinghe stared at the rice in the steamer with wide eyes.
He has been living in the villa for the past few months, so naturally he knew about Lu Qing's planting of spiritual grains.
But I didn't expect that after the spiritual grain was shelled, the spiritual rice inside would look like this.
"Doctor Chen, have you ever eaten this magical rice?" Wei Shanhai asked.
"Not yet. Sharing happiness with others is worse than enjoying it alone. I think it will be more delicious if we taste this magical rice together with everyone."
"In that case, I'd like to taste it carefully to see what this spiritual rice tastes like."
When Wei Shanhai and his friends heard this, they couldn't help but look forward to the taste of the spiritual rice even more.
In the courtyard, after all the dishes were served, Lu Qing brought a glass of wine and said loudly:
"Dear fellow villagers, since our parents passed away, Xiaoyan and I have survived the most difficult days thanks to your protection and care.
For a long time, Ah Qing and Xiao Yan have wanted to treat everyone to a good banquet, but they could never find the right time.
Yesterday I cultivated the spiritual grains for several months and had a small harvest.
So I'd like to take this opportunity to invite everyone over for a quick meal.
Don't be polite, just eat as much as you want.
Today, there will be plenty of drinks and food!"
Everyone looked at Lu Qing, who was holding a wine glass, standing there with a tall and graceful figure and an extraordinary appearance.
I feel very touched.
Especially the elderly people like Uncle Zhang, their eyes were full of warmth.
The boy who was so skinny and had a hard time surviving has finally become successful.
"Okay, everyone, don't be polite, pick up your chopsticks."
Lu Qing drank the glass of wine in his hand.
Seeing this, everyone stopped being polite and prepared to pick up their chopsticks.
However, even when it is time to start eating, the young people at each table will wait until the elders start to pick up their chopsticks before they start to pick up food.
The first thing everyone did was to pick up the bowl of braised pork.
There is no way, the red, oily and shiny appearance of the braised pork is just too tempting.
Not many people can resist the temptation of such delicious food.
A villager picked up a piece of braised pork with fat and lean meat and put it in his mouth, and the next moment, his eyes widened.
I just felt the piece of meat in my mouth. The lean meat was not dry, the fat meat melted in my mouth, it was soft, sweet, and had a rich meaty aroma.
The mellow taste spreads in your mouth, and the taste is simply indescribable.
It can be said that he has never eaten such delicious meat in his life.
"Ah Qing, how did you cook this meat? Why is it so delicious?"
"Pork can be cooked so deliciously? It tastes even better than beef and mutton!"
The other villagers who had tasted the braised pork also widened their eyes.
Marvel at the flavor of this braised pork dish.
"This braised pork is really different from the one we have here."
In the room, Wei Xinghe also exclaimed.
"Mr. Lu's cooking skills have really improved."
Wei Shanhai tasted a piece of meat and sighed.
Since he often visited the small courtyard halfway up the mountain, he would often stay for dinner.
So I have eaten this braised pork several times, but I still feel that the one made by Lu Qing this time is even more delicious than before.
As for Hu Laosan and his daughter Hu Zezhi, there is no need to mention them.
It was the first time for them to eat dishes with such unique flavors.
"This time when we went to Zhongzhou, Ah Qing seemed to have collected some special seasonings. It should be related to this." The old doctor explained.
Although they were in a hurry on the way to Zhongzhou this time, Lu Qing would sometimes still wander around the place where he was staying to see if there were any unexpected gains.
As a result, he got a lot of special seasonings.
After tasting the braised pork, Wei Shanhai and his friends tried the other dishes on the table, which also tasted delicious.
Each dish has a unique flavor and can be called a real delicacy.
After tasting all the dishes, they turned their attention to the basket of steaming rice.
They knew that although the dishes on the table were delicious, this spiritual rice was the real highlight of today's banquet.
"Doctor Chen, is there anything particular about eating this magical rice?" Wei Shanhai asked.
"Probably not." The old doctor shook his head. "Ah Qing didn't tell us how to eat this magical rice in any special way. It should be the same as eating ordinary rice. You can just eat it directly."
"Grandpa Wei, let me help you serve the food."
At this time, Xiaoyan stepped forward obediently and helped everyone serve the food.
Soon, Xiaoyan served bowls of crystal clear rice and placed them in front of everyone.
The misty hot air and the faint fragrance made everyone's noses salivate even more than all the delicious food on the table.
"Doctor Chen, we will not be polite then."
Wei Shanhai was the first to pick up the bowl and put a piece of rice into his mouth with chopsticks.
Seeing this, the others also picked up their bowls and started eating.
As soon as they took a mouthful of rice, everyone immediately felt that this magical rice was different from the others.
The rice grains are soft and chewy, sweet and delicious.
With every chew, a natural and pure scent flows between your lips and teeth.
The taste is so wonderful that it is a great enjoyment.
So everyone couldn't stop eating for a while, eating mouthful after mouthful until they finished all the rice in the bowl.
"The taste of this spiritual rice is truly indescribable. It is the most delicious rice I have ever eaten in my entire life."
After eating a bowl of spiritual rice, Wei Shanhai showed an incredible look in his eyes.
More importantly, he also felt that the extremely gentle life energy hidden in this spiritual rice was no worse than those precious medicinal herbs.
"And I feel like my body feels a lot more relaxed after eating this spiritual rice."
Mrs. Wei was equally surprised.
"Ah Qing once said that this spiritual rice contains spiritual charm. It can nourish the human body and enhance the vitality in the body. It is a very gentle spiritual tonic. Madam's feeling is not an illusion." The old doctor explained.
"Mr. Lu Xiaolang used such a magical object to entertain guests. He is really generous."
Hu Laosan was shocked.
He is a warrior at the Bone Refining Realm, and his Qi and blood power is not weak.
But after eating this bowl of spiritual rice, he actually felt that his Qi and blood strength, which had not improved for a long time, had noticeably increased a little.
A bowl of rice can have such miraculous effects. If he can eat it every day, wouldn't it not take long for him to break through his limits and have the hope of entering the inner realm?
All of a sudden, Hu Laosan realized how precious the spiritual rice that Lu Qing took out to entertain the guests was.
Even a warrior like him, who is not young anymore and has already reached the end of his cultivation path, can strengthen his Qi and blood.
If those young and extremely talented young geniuses could get the help of this spiritual rice.
If you consume it for a long time, won't your cultivation progress by leaps and bounds? !
"Senior Wei, Patriarch Wei, everyone, Lu Qing is late, please forgive me."
At this time, Lu Qing walked into the house after entertaining the villagers outside.
"What are you talking about, Mr. Lu? It is our blessing to be able to taste such delicious dishes and spiritual rice." Wei Shanhai said with a smile, "By the way, Mr. Lu, did you get a lot of spiritual rice this time?"
Lu Qing was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "Could it be that Senior Wei is tempted? This spiritual rice is just something I cultivated casually.
But if Senior Wei wants, I can give you a few hundred kilograms."
Thanks to Lu Qing's meticulous care, the Linggu planted this time is growing very well.
The ears of rice are also exceptionally full.
So he gained a lot this time.
Two acres of spiritual fields yielded more than three thousand kilograms of spiritual grain.
Even if you remove the husks, there are still at least more than two thousand kilograms of spiritual rice.
Even if a few hundred kilograms were evenly distributed to Wei Shanhai, it wouldn't have much impact.
Anyway, he, his master and Xiaoyan couldn't eat too much.
And in a few months, he will be able to harvest another batch of spiritual grains.
“But, Senior Wei, although the spiritual rice is good, for a Xiantian realm expert, it can only increase his cultivation at most.
If you want to break through the realm, you still need to practice hard on your own."
Lu Qing persuaded.
"So Young Master Lu thought I was asking for this magical rice for myself, but that's not the case." Wei Shanhai said with a smile, "I was asking for it on behalf of Zi'an and Zihao.
Especially Zihao, he doesn’t have the same opportunity as Zian, so his cultivation has probably fallen behind a lot.
With this magical rice, perhaps we can catch up."
"Did you find Zihao?" Lu Qing asked in surprise.
Of course, he had heard about the destruction of Qingyun Sword Pavilion in Jeju more than two months ago.
He also knew that Wei Zihao, a disciple of Qingyun Sword Pavilion, also disappeared in the disaster.
According to Lu Qing's idea, Wei Zihao was probably dead.
After all, so many masters of Qingyun Sword Pavilion died in accidents. How could he, a mere post-natal realm master, escape?
But now from what Wei Shanhai said, it seems that Wei Zihao is not dead?
"Mr. Lu, I was just about to tell you about this." At this time, Wei Xinghe said.
“Two days ago, my Wei family’s spies discovered Zihao’s whereabouts in the state capital.
He seems to be hiding something with several other disciples of Qingyun Sword Pavilion."
"Zihao is in the provincial capital, so why doesn't he contact you? I remember that your Wei family also has industries in the provincial capital, right?" Lu Qing's heart moved.
"This is what we are wondering. The spies in the mansion reported that when they saw Zihao, he was in a hurry and seemed to be avoiding something.
So I wonder if there is another reason why he deliberately didn’t contact his family.”
"Avoiding from what?" Lu Qing pondered for a moment, "Master Wei, you mean that Zihao is facing danger, and in order not to implicate your Wei family, he deliberately avoided contact with you?"
"Based on the information sent by the spies in the mansion, Ah Hai and I speculated that this is very likely the case."
“It can make Zihao prefer to put himself in danger rather than ask for help from his family.
It is obvious that in his mind, the person who brings him danger must be extremely terrifying, far beyond what your Wei family can resist.
Could it be that it is the mysterious force that destroyed Qingyun Sword Pavilion?"
Lu Qing analyzed.
Wei Shanhai sighed, "We thought so too, but when we thought that Zihao might be in danger, my wife and I became extremely anxious and restless."
Mrs. Wei couldn't help but reveal a sad expression.
"So, Patriarch Wei, you want to..."
Lu Qing could understand this. As a parent, how could they just watch their son in danger and remain indifferent?
"I want to go to the provincial capital to see if I can bring Zihao back." Wei Xinghe expressed his thoughts.
"I'm afraid this is not appropriate. Since Zihao has not contacted you, he must have his reasons. If you suddenly go to meet him, Master Wei, it may catch him off guard and disrupt his plans."
“Of course I know this, but if I don’t go to the state capital, and if Zihao gets into trouble, I’m afraid I will never be at peace in my life.
Of course, I also know that this journey is full of dangers, and I know that you, Mr. Lu, are proficient in the art of calculation.
So I want to ask you, if I go there, will I have any chance of survival?"
Lu Qing: “.”
How could he understand any calculation technique? That was just an excuse to use his supernatural powers.
However, seeing the determination on Wei Xinghe's face, he also knew that persuasion was impossible.
Any qualified father would not just watch his child in danger and do nothing.
So he thought about it and took out a sword-shaped jade talisman from his arms.
