Zhao Xun knew that it was difficult to have a heart-to-heart relationship with someone, let alone an artifact?
Although the natal objects are different from ordinary utensils, they have a certain aura.
But it is also extremely difficult to achieve truly barrier-free communication.
"It's really difficult."
After making several attempts, Zhao Xun almost collapsed emotionally.
"Junior brother, don't be too pessimistic. This can be regarded as your first real communication. It is not easy to reach this point."
Third senior brother Long Qingquan saw Zhao Xun looking extremely frustrated and stepped forward to cheer Zhao Xun up.
He knew that Zhao Xun could perform perfectly in the current state.
But everything has a process like this.
If Zhao Xun cannot adapt, it will be difficult for him and his natal creature, Ming Hong Dao, to truly come together.
so...
What Zhao Xun has to do next is to try as much as possible and keep trying.
Don't worry about what to do if the conversation breaks down.
Because the other person is just a tool, so as long as junior brother Zhao Xun doesn't feel embarrassed, the person who will be embarrassed will definitely be someone else.
Long Qingquan firmly believed that with his junior apprentice's qualifications, he could achieve barrier-free communication.
"Okay, then I'll try again."
"If I want to challenge a stronger opponent than me next, will you be willing?"
Buzz buzz buzz...
Zhao Xun received the positive response he hoped to see.
This made Zhao Xun feel ecstatic.
Great, really great.
He finally received another response from Ming Hongdao.
Zhao Xun was once worried that Ming Hongdao would not respond to him anymore.
But it turns out that as long as Zhao Xun talks about a topic that Ming Hongdao is interested in, Ming Hongdao will respond immediately.
Tsk tsk tsk, he is really a spiritual guy.
It has to be said that the natal belongings follow the owner.
Zhao Xun is a person with an extremely strong personal style and a very strong personality.
Faced with topics that he was not interested in, Zhao Xun would not even say a word about them.
Ming Hongdao's character can be said to be exactly the same as his.
Zhao Xun felt very relieved.
"Haha, so what should we talk about next?"
Zhao Xun immediately regretted it after asking this question.
Because he had already made similar attempts before, Ming Hongdao would not make a targeted judgment on this kind of multiple-choice question.
If you want Ming Hongdao to make a judgment, you must ask him judgment questions.
"Well, do you want to fight against the Demon Sect and the Corruptor?"
Buzz buzz buzz buzz...
The Minghong Sword began to vibrate violently, and it looked like it was about to be unsheathed in an instant.
Zhao Xun was completely shocked.
Good guy...
This was the first time that Ming Hongdao had such a strong reaction since he started formal communication with Ming Hongdao.
But this at least shows one thing, that is, Ming Hong Dao recognizes the fight against evil forces to a certain extent.
Ming Hongdao did not show the slightest fear.
It can face challenges from evil forces and dare to challenge those who are stronger than it.
This is really not easy.
"Tsk tsk tsk..."
Zhao Xun gained confidence in an instant.
He firmly believed that as long as he could persist in communicating with Ming Hongdao, a bond would eventually be established between the two.
"Junior brother, what I said is right. Sometimes you have to take the initiative to open your heart. After all, Ming Hong Dao is a tool. If you don't take the initiative to speak, don't you expect him to take the initiative to speak?"
There is nothing wrong with what Third Senior Brother Long Qingquan said. Zhao Xun nodded repeatedly and said: "Thank you, Third Senior Brother. If it hadn't been for your advice today, I'm afraid I would still be kept in the dark."
"Hahaha, it doesn't matter, it's just a little effort. Besides, you have helped me so much, so I can reciprocate the favor, right?"
"Um..."
Zhao Xun thought to himself that there was nothing wrong with what Third Senior Brother Long Qingquan said.
...
...
Zhao Xun communicated with Ming Hongdao for about an hour, which was very effective.
Of course, Zhao Xun could not continue to communicate with him at all costs.
After all, Ming Hong Dao will not be hungry, but people will be hungry.
Zhao Xun's stomach was already growling.
It's impossible for Zhao Xun to continue communicating with Ming Hongdao on an empty stomach at this time, right?
If he really did this, it would only prove that Zhao Xun was crazy.
But Zhao Xun is obviously not crazy yet, so he must stop in time to cook.
Third senior brother Long Qingquan was obviously hungry too.
He and Zhao Xun entered the kitchen one after another.
Long Qingquan was the first to ask: "Junior brother, I have helped you such a big favor today, how are you going to reward me and thank me?"
"Well..."
Zhao Xun thought about it carefully and realized that what Third Senior Brother Long Qingquan said was indeed correct.
If he hadn't mentioned that, Zhao Xun probably wouldn't have realized that there was a big communication problem between him and his natal creature, Ming Hong Dao, until now.
But after Long Qingquan said these words, Zhao Xun was able to re-examine everything.
He knows that this is not an easy task, so he will try his best.
So far, the effect is pretty good.
Therefore, it is reasonable for Zhao Xun to thank his third senior brother Long Qingquan.
"Well, Third Senior Brother, what type of food do you want to eat?"
Zhao Xun can finally ask multiple-choice questions.
When he was communicating with Ming Hongdao before, Zhao Xun could only ask true or false questions, which really frustrated Zhao Xun.
Not to mention how embarrassing this feeling is.
"Uh... Actually, you can eat whatever you want, little junior brother, but you have to make it clear, it's best not to have cakes again. I really made myself vomited when I made flying cakes during this period."
Since the third senior brother's skill in flying cakes has improved by leaps and bounds, not only the mountain chief, but also all the disciples in the academy have begun to ask the third senior brother to make breakfast for them.
For a time, Third Senior Brother Long Qingquan was under a lot of pressure.
After all, he couldn't refuse this kind of thing directly.
If he refuses, it will simply be a slap in the face for not giving himself face.
Long Qingquan definitely can't do this kind of thing, so he must make flying cakes as much as possible to meet the needs of everyone in the academy.
This is of course extremely physically demanding.
Even a top practitioner like Long Qingquan couldn't bear it.
"Okay, then I won't make cakes today..."
Zhao Xun swallowed and said, "How about I make three fresh dumplings for Third Senior Brother?"
"Um?"
Long Qingquan couldn't help but his eyes lit up when he heard this.
The reason is actually very simple.
The academy only eats dumplings during festivals.
On weekdays, it's basically just a matter of picking things up and finishing them all at once. Who would go and eat some dumplings?
Isn’t that too busy?
Besides...
Long Qingquan also knew very well that making dumplings was not an ordinary hassle. No one would be willing to do such a thankless task.
"Yes, the dumplings are good. But, junior brother, would it be too troublesome to make these dumplings?"
Long Qingquan still had some pressure on this.
Because he had once made dumplings with his senior sister and second senior sister during the Chinese New Year. It could really be said to be a nightmare.
Long Qingquan still remembers the embarrassing scene when making dumplings.
He clumsily stuffed the filling into the dumpling wrapper and then closed the dumpling wrapper.
As a result, the second senior sister Liu Yingying laughed and said that the dumplings he made looked like those eaten by dogs.
Long Qingquan is an extremely proud person.
So he couldn't bear such humiliation.
But the other party was his second senior sister, and the second senior sister was obviously joking with him.
If Long Qingquan got angry under this situation, it would be unjustifiable no matter what.
Maintaining restraint is a course he must practice.
So since then, Long Qingquan has been resistant to making dumplings.
Although I can't say I hate it, if there were other ways, Long Qingquan would not make dumplings.
Just once is enough to hurt someone.
"Third Senior Brother..."
Zhao Xun was dumbfounded.
"What's the trouble in making dumplings? Besides, the dumplings taste very delicious. Haven't you heard of a saying, it's called dumplings that are not as delicious as they are..."
"Well..."
Long Qingquan was inspired by Zhao Xun, and he became interested again in an instant.
Yes, the dumplings do seem to taste delicious.
How could he reject dumplings just because of that little setback? Isn't this not worth the gain?
Long Qingquan nodded and said: "Junior brother, you are right. I also think dumplings are delicious. Well, I can't stop eating because of choking. In this case, let's make dumplings."
After making up his mind, Long Qingquan felt that there were no obstacles anymore.
Sometimes people are just missing a layer of window paper, and after it is pierced, they no longer feel any pressure.
...
...
"When making dumplings, the most important thing is to prepare the fillings. The fillings are the soul of a dumpling."
Zhao Xun started teaching mode again.
In his opinion, the third senior brother Long Qingquan's understanding of food is still quite limited.
In other words, his reserve of food knowledge is quite large.
On the premise of having a large reserve of delicious food, Zhao Xun's casual taking out some would be a dimensionality-reducing blow to the academy's senior brothers and sisters.
"Third Senior Brother, you can use more force when mixing the filling. This way the filling will be mixed evenly."
Long Qingquan listened very carefully because he knew that every word his junior brother said was crucial.
If he can master it well, it will definitely be of great benefit to him in the future.
Making dumplings is actually the same as making hot pot or barbecue. It seems simple, but in fact it contains a lot of secrets.
"Well, is this okay?"
Long Qingquan looked very serious about studying, and Zhao Xun was very satisfied after seeing it.
"Yes, this intensity is very good. Third senior brother, you must maintain it. Just maintain this intensity."
Zhao Xun was very satisfied with the attitude of the third senior brother in mixing the stuffing.
Of course, Zhao Xun himself was not idle either.
At this time, he was busy rolling out dumpling wrappers.
The job of rolling out dough actually requires experience.
The dumpling skins rolled out by experienced master chefs are evenly thin and will not have any unevenness at all.
This kind of dumpling skin is the most suitable for making dumplings.
The fillings of dumplings wrapped in such dumpling wrappers will not be exposed after being cooked, and the taste will be amazing after being cooked.
Long Qingquan was mixing the fillings while observing his junior brother Zhao Xun rolling out the dumpling wrappers.
Not to mention, he still admires his junior brother's attitude.
No matter how small it seems to him, the junior brother can complete it very seriously.
Even if it is just a tiny and extremely subtle movement, the junior brother will complete it to the letter.
It's not easy to do this.
"Junior brother, don't pack too much at one time. Just enough for the two of us."
Long Qingquan reminded from the side.
The main reason is that he has learned enough experience and lessons. The last time he went up to the pole to make flying cakes for the mountain leader and a group of junior brothers and sisters, the result was out of control.
Maybe it was because the flying cakes he made tasted so good. After tasting the flying cakes, all the junior brothers and sisters expressed their hope that Long Qingquan would make breakfast in the future.
Long Qingquan felt helpless in his heart. But he had no good way to refuse, because he wanted to meet.
If he refuses, all the junior brothers and sisters will definitely think that he is deliberately trying to embarrass himself.
Therefore, even if Long Qingquan broke his teeth, he could only swallow it in his stomach.
No matter how aggrieved or unwilling he felt in his heart, he could not show it in front of all his junior brothers and sisters.
So in the end, Long Qingquan silently endured everything.
But making breakfast for so many people is simply not a human job.
At this time, Long Qingquan began to understand and sympathize with his junior brother Zhao Xun.
How did the junior brother do it in the first place?
And my junior brother has persisted for so long because of his perseverance.
"Third Senior Brother, are the fillings ready? I need to wrap them up."
"Okay, okay, take a look. It should be almost done, right?"
Long Qingquan said that the prepared stuffing was delivered to Zhao Xun. Zhao Xun looked at it and gave a thumbs up to his third senior brother Long Qingquan.
"Yes, third senior brother, you have now mastered the key to making fillings. This filling cannot be said to be perfect, it can only be said to be very perfect."
Zhao Xun laughed, and then said in a deep voice: "Third Senior Brother, now comes a more critical link in making dumplings. That is filling. Although it seems that this link is not that important, it still plays a big role in the final presentation of the dumplings. Influenced.”
After Zhao Xun said that, he took out a small lump of filling and wrapped it in a dumpling wrapper, then carefully kneaded the dumpling.
"Third senior brother, look, it's just like me."
Zhao Xun wrapped it carefully, and while doing so, he set an example for the third senior brother.
"Well... Junior Brother, you are so awesome."
"Um..."
Zhao Xun is now accustomed to compliments from his third senior brother Long Qingquan.
At first he would blush a little, but now his face is not red and his heart is not beating anymore.
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, junior brother, from whom did you learn this technique of making dumplings?"
The question suddenly raised by Third Senior Brother Long Qingquan completely confused Zhao Xun.
What?
Who did you learn how to make dumplings from?
How can I answer this call?
Zhao Xun certainly cannot be said to have been taught by his parents.
Because Zhao Xun’s parents are Cheng Guogong Zhao Yuan and his wife.
These two people can be said to be the top nobles of the Great Zhou Dynasty. They must not be able to cook by themselves if they are pampered all day long.
"Well, an old man with a white beard taught me this. In a dream."
