Qin Shaoyou returned to the kitchen, fried the silk strings in a pot, and began to make fine beard cakes.
A faint sweet smell floated out from the kitchen, was pulled by the invisible wind into the lobby, and was sucked into the statue of Jiutiandang Demon Patriarch.
Although the expression of the statue of Jiutiandang Demon Patriarch has not changed, the look of anticipation in his eyes has become much thicker.
After a while, the squid will come out of the pan.
Qin Shaoyou put out the fire in the stove, washed the pots, pans and other cooking utensils, put the squid on a plate and put it in the basket.
Then he held the basket in one hand and the jar of soaked bone bream in the other, walked out of the kitchen and went straight to the lobby.
The eyes of the Jiutiandang Demon Patriarch's statue followed him the whole time. To be precise, they were staring at the basket and jar in his hand.
Qin Shaoyou walked into the lobby and came to the statue of Jiutiandang Demon Patriarch. He took a piece of Jingxu cake from the basket and put it on the altar table.
"I brought it to you just after it came out of the pot. I haven't even taken a bite yet. How about it? Is it interesting?" Qin Shaoyou said with a smile.
However, when he looked up, he found that the Jiutiandang Demon Patriarch's gaze was a little strange, with a mixture of dissatisfaction and doubt, as if asking him: "Why is there only one? Isn't there another new spiritual food in the jar?"
?Why don’t you give it to me?”
Qin Shaoyou understood the content in its eyes and patted the kimchi jar: "This dish is not completely ready yet. It will take a few days to eat. I will give you a portion by then."
After hearing this, the eyes of Jiutiandang Demon Patriarch's eyes softened significantly, and even showed a trace of apology, as if he was apologizing for misunderstanding Qin Shaoyou.
This is something that has never happened before.
It seems that feeding the Jiutian Demon Patriarch Statue a few meals of demon and ghost delicacies was of some use. At least it made it more polite. It knew not to hurt Qin Shaoyou's heart, otherwise it would not be able to eat such delicious and effective demon ghosts again in the future.
It’s a spiritual dish.
After Qin Shaoyou offered the fine beard cake, he was not in a hurry to leave.
He put down the basket and jar, picked up three sticks of incense from the altar, lit them, paid respect and said, "Master, let's discuss something."
The gaze of Jiutiandangmo Patriarch's statue moved from Jingxusu to him, with some doubts.
Qin Shaoyou said the prepared speech:
"You must have noticed that the demon ghost delicacies I made are different from the ordinary ones, both in terms of taste and effect.
To tell you the truth, I was taught by an expert. But that expert was indifferent to fame and wealth and did not want to be harassed by worldly affairs, so he did not allow me to reveal his situation.
But if I make a lot of ghost and ghost delicacies, some people will definitely be curious and ask, in order to avoid unnecessary trouble, can I say that you taught me to make these ghost and ghost delicacies?
If you agree, you will accept the incense from these three sticks of incense. If there are new delicacies for demons and ghosts in the future, I will provide them to you in time. But if you are unwilling, you will not accept the incense, but the delicacies will only be the same as before.
The third child is the same.
Even if I make the new demon and ghost delicacies, I will definitely not be able to take them out again, please forgive me."
The Patriarch of Jiutiandang Demon seemed a little confused after hearing Qin Shaoyou's words: Is he bargaining with me? Or is he threatening me? I have been in the Demon Suppression Department for so many years, and this is the first time someone dares to make such a request to me!
After Qin Shaoyou made his request, he inserted the incense into the incense burner, and immediately took two steps back, watching three lines of green smoke rising from the incense, and also looking at the statue of Jiutiandang Demon Patriarch.
See if it accepts these three incense sticks.
The statue of Jiutiandang Demon Patriarch also looked down at Qin Shaoyou.
Slowly green smoke floated in front of it, and then dissipated.
It did not accept the incense.
Qin Shaoyou sighed softly: "Disciple respects the choice of the ancestor. Don't worry, I will still be able to provide you with the same demons, ghosts and delicacies as Lao San in the future."
After saying that, he leaned over and picked up the basket, picked up the jar, and was about to leave the lobby.
But at this moment, he suddenly caught a glimpse of the green smoke rising from the three sticks of incense being inhaled into the mouth by the statue of Jiutiandang Demon Patriarch.
"Um?"
Qin Shaoyou thought he had made a mistake and quickly raised his head.
This time he could see clearly that the three sticks of incense had indeed been taken away by the statue of Jiutiandang Demon Patriarch.
"Master Patriarch, you agree to carry... Ahem, have you agreed to my request?"
Qin Shaoyou was so surprised that he almost spilled the beans.
Not only did the statue of Jiutiandang Demon Patriarch not answer him, but he also moved his eyes to the side, no longer looking at him.
However, the statue of Jiutiandang Demon Patriarch has been collecting the incense of the three sticks of incense without interruption.
This is already the answer.
After Qin Shaoyou confirmed the attitude of the statue of Patriarch Jiutian Dangmo, he smiled happily and said: "Thank you, Patriarch, I won't disturb you while you are cooking. Please take your time. Disciple, I will leave first."
He picked up the basket and jar, and walked out of the lobby quickly, fearing that if he walked too slowly, the statue of Jiutiandang Demon Patriarch would regret it.
When he was leaving, he glanced back at the statue of Jiutiandang Mo Patriarch, and commented quietly in his heart: "As expected of a foodie, he is even willing to take the blame for the sake of food."
However, with the statue of Jiutian Demon Patriarch helping to take the blame, he no longer has to worry about his ability to cook demon and ghost delicacies, which will arouse bad suspicions from others.
If someone really wants to gossip, let him come to the Grandmaster to fight and see if the Grandmaster will blow his head off!
Because it was getting late, Qin Shaoyou did not go home. He carried the jar and the basket and went to a small room he was newly assigned to in the Demon Suppression Department.
This is the treatment you get after being promoted to Chief Flag Officer. It is convenient for you to have a quiet place to rest when you are on duty. You don't have to go to Datong Shop and follow a group of rough men around.
The small room of the Chief Flag Officer is right next to Datong Pu.
Qin Shaoyou went over and put down the jars and baskets, then went out to the school grounds again.
Sun Xianzong, Ma Monk and other small banner officials are leading their men here to conduct targeted training based on the summary after the review.
Qin Shaoyou stood on the sidelines and watched for a while, then suggested: "You just train like this, but you always feel that something is missing... In this way, I will add some materials to you to make your training closer to actual combat."
Sun Xianzong stopped the training and asked curiously: "Sir, how can we get closer to actual combat?"
Qin Shaoyou chuckled, glanced at Zhu Xiucai who was lying next to him watching the fun, took out the illusion ghost bead from his pocket, and after taking off the wrapped talisman, all the warriors on the training ground were immediately affected by the illusion, "Look"
In the darkness around them, ferocious skeleton warriors suddenly appeared one after another and launched an attack on them.
The warriors encountered a sudden surprise, and although they reacted immediately, they either fought independently, or several familiar people cooperated to kill the enemy.
They used all the routines they were familiar with before, and did not follow the battle formations trained in the past few days to fight against the enemy.
Sun Xianzong was not affected by the illusion. When he saw the reaction of all the warriors, his face was as black as the ashes on the bottom of the pot.
Seeing this situation, Qin Shaoyou temporarily stopped the illusion.
The enemy in the eyes of all the warriors immediately disappeared.
They were stunned for a moment, and then they all realized that they must have been under an illusion just now.
Is this what is called actual combat training? It is indeed very real.
Sun Xianzong also said: "Your Excellency's practical training is very good. It allows us to see at a glance what problems still exist..."
Hearing these words and seeing Sun Xianzong's expression, all the warriors shuddered.
In the past few days, they have become familiar with Sun Xianzong's temperament, and knowing his current appearance shows that they are very unhappy, and they will definitely drill them hard next.
Qin Shaoyou raised his hand with a smile and pointed at Zhu Xiucai: "It's all Zhu Xiaoqi's suggestion."
"Ah I?"
Zhu Xiucai, who was lying nearby, gloating and watching the excitement, was stunned when he heard this.
When did I propose this?
Qin Shaoyou nodded and said: "Didn't you say before that you wanted to try the effect of the illusion ghost beads after you come back? It was only because of your words that I thought that the illusion ghost beads could also be used for training."
"But the test method I want is not this..."
Zhu Xiucai muttered.
As soon as he said this, he felt a chill coming over him.
When he turned around, he saw all the warriors staring at him with sad eyes.
He is a smart man and immediately understood that Qin Shaoyou was using him as a shield.
So he shut his mouth, stopped explaining, and took the blame for Qin Shaoyou.
