Lan Ke Qi Yuan Chapter 756: Feeling uneasy
Ji Yuan, who was boiling water, looked up at the distance of the road. He didn't care at first, but after thinking about it, he decided to pinch his fingers and forget it. After frowning slightly, Ji Yuan waved his sleeves and wiped the water on the edge. Sweep out all the dirt in the tank, and then move a little further into the water tank. Suddenly the water vapor condenses, and the water in the water tank starts from scratch. Then the water level slowly rises to two-thirds of the way before stopping. .
At this moment, the Haechi scroll was hanging on the wooden pillar next to the stove. The picture was motionless, but it felt like looking at the pot. Seeing Ji Yuan's action of letting the water tank fill with water, Haechi did the same. Laughed.
"You have a good heart, but you are not the owner of this tea shed."
"I didn't say I would entertain them."
Ji Yuan had something on his mind. He glanced at the end of the road and replied casually. He began to organize his tea set, put tea leaves in the kettle, added some honey, and then introduced the boiled spring water into the teapot. , no more, no less, just a pot, and before the faint fragrance of tea overflowed, Ji Yuan covered the pot with a teapot lid.
The Haechi on the scroll looked at the teapot in Ji Yuan's hand and suddenly murmured.
"The universe is vast in the sleeve, and the sun and moon are long in the pot..."
This sentence is the outline of the world in Ji Yuanyan's sleeves. Of course he will not know it, so he glanced at Xie Zhi and asked with a bit of pride.
"How about it? Can Ji, who has everything in his sleeves, be able to penetrate your Xie Zhi's eyes?"
"Well, that's great."
Haizhi’s answer was a high affirmation for Qiankun in His Sleeves. Ji Yuan accepted it happily and poured a cup of tea and handed it to Haezhi, who stretched out a hand with a silk cigarette directly from the scroll. The silky and charming claws grabbed the tea cup, then moved it to the mouth and took a sip.
"Not bad, the taste is okay...the pot is empty, is it time to make braised fish?"
Haizhi reminded him that Ji Yuan saw that he was in such a hurry, so he didn't hold back, he took a sip of tea in the direction of the cup and started to prepare.
The two big fish were wrapped in a layer of water vapor and were thrown out of Ji Yuan's sleeves. When they were suspended above the stove, the two fish were not dead yet, still moving their heads and tails lively.
"Stew the fish head in soup and braise the fish body. Is that okay?"
"No problem, no problem, it's up to you. It will definitely be delicious, hehe!"
Haizhi has seen Ji Yuan cooking before, but he couldn’t look down upon it before. Now that he has gotten acquainted with Ji Yuan a lot, he has already looked down on him. All he has to do is look forward to it, and Ji Yuan, an immortal like him, can cook it with great ingenuity. The dishes themselves have improved the level of the dishes.
These two fish do not require complicated treatment. Ji Yuan just removes any trace of turbidity from them, and then gently slaps the two lively fish heads with the blade of the knife, knocking them out immediately. , then he raised the knife and dropped it, and the two fishes were separated, but there was no fish blood at all.
This is not an ordinary fish, so Ji Yuan does not need to fry the fish head first, just throw it into the water, then add some ingredients, cover the pot and stew. The key is that he uses the method to stabilize the shape of the fish. Keep the fish fresh, otherwise it will just be a pot of water when cooked.
Then he started to process the remaining fish body. Cooking was also a very relaxing and entertaining process. Ji Yuan actually enjoyed this process. He was meticulous in cutting and sorting the fish. He handled the fish well. When we were standing still, the procession of carriages and horses in the distance was getting closer to the tea shed.
At the carriage team, everyone on horseback was a little disappointed when they saw that it was a tea shed.
"Hey, it's a tea shed, not a village at all."
"Better than nothing."
The people in the team were talking to each other, and the leading rider approached the carriage again and told the people inside the news. Then a man opened the carriage window and looked out. He was obviously a little disappointed, but still He said calmly.
"Leave over and rest there."
"Yes!"
The lead rider quickly returned to the front and led the team to the tea shed on the roadside not far away. At the same time, many people were also observing the tea shed carefully.
This tea shed doesn't look big, but it has eight tables, three of which are large tables for eight people. Judging from the situation of this **** place, it's pretty good.
When they arrived at the tea shed, everyone dismounted and got off their horses. The servants put stools beside the carriage to let the people inside slowly get down. Because there were too many horses, the small stable behind the tea shed couldn't fit in at all. Therefore, the carriages and horses gathered on the roadside and were guarded by special personnel.
Ji Yuan was busy with his work on the stove. He didn't seem to look at these people at all, but in fact he glanced at them. Even if he didn't look at them, the faces of the people on the two carriages were written The words "high official and noble person" are just filled with a strange and dark aura.
"Hey, shopkeeper, why don't you two come to say hello?"
As if he finally realized that he had been left out, after the people in the carriage sat down on the table outside the tea shed, the leading guard shouted in the direction of the stove.
The reason why I asked these two people is that because of Ji Yuan’s illusion, Haechi now has an outline of a human body, but the face is an unfolded picture, but others cannot see through it. They only know that it is the original figure in the tea shed. There were two of them.
In fact, these guards had seen Ji Yuan and Haezhi for a long time, but they were a little wary of them. After all, both of them were wearing elegant clothes and they didn't look like people working in the tea shed.
"Hey, the shopkeeper over there is talking to you, are you deaf?"
A guard approached the stove and looked inside warily. The first thing he noticed was the kitchen knife in Ji Yuan's hand. There was also a guard approaching from another direction. The two of them glanced around and found no other weapons.
Hie Zhi naturally did not speak, even leaning against the pillar beside the stove, he was too lazy to move. Ji Yuan raised his head to look at them, shook his head and said.
"I'm not deaf, but you are calling the store owner, and I am not the store owner. I just borrowed the stove to cook a meal."
"Not a store owner?"
The leading guard looked Ji Yuan up and down, and the clothes were indeed convincing.
"Where did the store go?"
Ji Yuan shook his head. The shop owner was also a very good monk, so it was hard to predict where he would go.
"There was no one at the tea shed when I came. I don't know where the shop owner has gone."
The leading guard put his hand on the handle of the knife, and his eyes swept back and forth between Ji Yuan and Haechi, especially Haechi who remained silent.
"Is that the store owner will be dealt with by you?"
Ji Yuan didn't pay attention at all. Although he knew that the other party's vigilance was good, he still murmured.
"Persecution paranoia."
Then Ji Yuan put down the kitchen knife, put the rapeseed oil prepared on the stove into the hot pot, and then poured all the fish pieces on the cutting board into the pot.
"Zi la la la..."
Suddenly, a scent of oil spread out along with the sound, and Xie Zhi's eyes opened and he looked at the pot seriously.
The leaders Jian Jiyuan and Haezhi ignored him, their faces looked a little ugly, and they were about to speak angrily when a voice came from behind them.
"Okay, don't be rude."
A middle-aged man who looked like a Confucian scholar stood up from the table at the back and slightly cupped his hands in Ji Yuan's direction.
"The servant is rude, gentlemen, please forgive me."
Haizhi still didn't respond at all, while Ji Yuan nodded, returned the salute and then pointed to his side.
"There is clear water in the water tank, and there are some tea leaves in the cabinet next to the stove. The tea sets are all ready-made. As for the refreshments, they are all gone, and there is no rice. You can do it yourself. Well, let me cook it first. This pot of fish."
After saying this, Ji Yuan concentrated on flipping the fish in the pot with a spatula. There was soy sauce in the small bowl on the side. Ji Yuan poured some honey from the honey pot and poured it into the pot with the soy sauce. During the meal, he also poured some wine from a thousand-doubled pot. The aroma mixed with a hint of burnt brown permeated the entire tea tent, and even the wealthy people sitting outside secretly swallowed their saliva.
"Sir, how about we buy your pot of food?"
The leading guard couldn't help but ask. As for whether it was poisonous, he would naturally identify it carefully.
"Sorry, I won't sell this fish for any price."
This time Haezhi finally spoke, and he was ahead of Ji Yuan. His low and hoarse voice also made people subconsciously wary.
"You won't sell it for ten taels of silver?"
"I won't sell it even for ten taels of gold. Ji is not that short of money."
Ji Yuan glanced at Haezhi, then looked at the leading guard and the wealthy people over there who seemed to be looking forward to it, shook his head and continued cooking.
Ji Yuan originally wanted to say that he was not short of money, but considering the actual situation, he downgraded it to another level. He kept moving his hands and covered the pot lid. Suddenly all the aroma was sealed, and then The flames in the furnace beat violently and burned much more violently than normal firewood.
Hearing that Ji Yuan was not moved by gold and silver, Haechi was inexplicably relieved, while Ji Yuan's brows jumped. Does Haechi think he is obsessed with money?
"Then you occupied two stoves, when will they be used up?"
The guard's tone was serious. Ji Yuan glanced at the stove and replied, "It only takes twenty breaths."
In the end, after only twenty breaths, Ji Yuan took the bowl and basin from the cupboard next to the stove, and then opened the two pot lids together. Find Shuyuan www.zhaoshuyua.com
At that moment, a strange aroma permeated the entire tea shed, making the listener intoxicated. However, the aroma quickly weakened after two breaths. Although it was still very tempting, it was not able to make people want to stop. .
"It's finally fine, it's fine finally, hey, put it on the table, put it on the table!"
Xie Zhi couldn't wait to bring the fish head soup to the table, while Ji Yuan brought a large basin of fish. The basin was completely a basin, filled with braised fish.
"So much...they can't finish it..."
"Yes, Gu..."
Ji Yuan took a clean tea cup, poured a cup of tea, and then walked towards the Confucian-looking man over there in person, but was stopped by the guard, so he handed the tea to the guard.
"This tea was given to you by Mr. Ji. As for the fish, it seems to be a lot, but in fact it is not eaten. If I give you some, some people will be unhappy. This fish is not a fish and cannot be sold lightly. You are worried. It is not a human matter and cannot be treated lightly."
"Humph!"
Xie Zhi snorted coldly.
"Ji Yuan, why are you talking so much to a group of ordinary people? Come and eat the fish, or I will eat them all myself!"
"Coming."
Ji Yuan left and took a seat over there, but Xie Zhi's words shocked the Confucian scholar's heart.
‘Are these two hermit masters? In other words, not a mortal at all? What I’m asking for is impersonal things...’
On the other side, Ji Yuan picked up the chopsticks and chewed the fish meat, and the uneasiness in his heart gradually increased. From time to time, the blurred corner of his vision would look at the Confucian scholar over there, who was just a mortal.
