Chapter two hundred and ninety seventh time is quiet
After returning to the town and approaching the inn, Maomao stopped and heard a strange sound.
"Why don't you leave?" Zhenzi, who was chatting, patted the donkey's butt, but Maomao remained indifferent.
Yu Sheng poked his head out and saw that there was no sound on the street, and his face became serious. He turned back and reached out to cover Aunt Qing's ears, urging Maomao to move forward.
Maomao took a step forward, with a death-like look in his eyes, Cao'er and the Demon were also ready.
Zhen Zi couldn't help but be surprised, "What's wrong, aren't we almost at the inn?"
"You'll know later." Yu Sheng said. At this time, Maomao was already running wildly, eager to get to the inn and leave.
Zhenzi was still confused. After Maomao approached the inn, a hoarse singing sound penetrated her ears, causing her expression to change.
This feeling was like thousands of ants biting in his heart and brain, which made Zhenzi go crazy and wanted to grab something and tear it to pieces.
She quickly covered her ears, "What kind of monster is this?"
"This, is, human." Yu Sheng said every word, and the rest of his energy was used to resist the heart-wrenching singing.
Zhen Zi didn't hear it. She saw Yu Sheng covering her aunt's ears and said in admiration: "It's true love."
Yu Sheng didn't hear clearly because Maomao had already stopped in front of the inn and Yu Sheng was busy getting out of the car.
After entering the inn, the sound was still harsh, but for some reason, I felt much calmer and less irritating.
Behind them, the rich and the poor, with their ears blocked, helped Maomao unload the truck and told Maomao to escape quickly.
Yu Sheng looked over and saw Chan'er and Xing Ge sitting on the bridge to bask in the sun. There was a small table next to them with tea on it.
"Hey, the pot is here." Guaizai came out of the back kitchen and said happily, "Where did you take it? It almost delayed the cooking."
"The demons have been subdued." Yu Sheng turned around and asked her, "Why didn't you stop it and let the two of them get worse?"
The sound of singing is like fingernails scratching a blackboard, which is unbearable.
"What?" Guaizai took off the cotton that blocked his ears, "You're frying bugs, little Yu'er, your ways are too wild."
She looked disgusted. Strictly speaking, she was also a bug.
"I won't eat any fried bugs or fried snakes, but there is a fried tiger head," Yu Sheng said.
"Snakes have spirits. Not only are they fried, but eating them is always bad." An old voice said.
Yu Sheng turned around following the sound and saw a stooped old man sitting in the lobby, half of his forehead covered with something like snake scales.
Seeing Yu Sheng looking at him, the old man said: "My ancestors liked to eat snakes, so they were cursed and this disease has been passed down from generation to generation."
Yu Sheng nodded to him, turned around and repeated what he had just said, and said strangely: "Oh, Li Zheng asked them to sing it on the bridge to ward off monsters."
Wei Zai told Yu Sheng that a mountain spider the size of a millstone emerged from the bamboo forest yesterday afternoon.
At that time, the villagers who were farming in the fields picked up their feet and ran away, but how could two legs compare to the eight-legged mountain spider.
Seeing that some villagers were about to die, the singing at the bridge reached the ears of the mountain spider, causing it to turn around and flee to the north.
Yu Sheng looked outside again, but he didn't expect the singing voice to be so powerful.
"By the way, where is Liuliu?" Guaizai asked Cao'er, and Cao'er focused on Yu Sheng.
"Go to the backyard." Yu Sheng led them to the back. The kitchen was remodeled, and Uncle Shi led people to build the corral. The backyard was very quiet.
Yu Sheng stood in the center of the courtyard, clasping his hands and holding the seal card, "In the name of evil spirit, I call you back."
While Cao'er and Guaizai were astonished, the card between Yu Sheng's hands suddenly glowed with soft white light, and a light and shadow appeared behind Yu Sheng.
A willow tree swaying in the wind appeared like a mirage in the light and shadow, and then a figure appeared under the willow tree.
The figure gradually turned from virtual to real, and Liu Liu appeared behind Yu Sheng.
"Wow", Cao'er circled around Liuliu and saw that she was not only intact, but also full of energy.
Liu Liu turned around, and after realizing the connection between herself and the deity, her surprise was beyond words.
The only thing that embarrasses her is that she doesn't know how to face the rest of her life. Fortunately, she has set an example before her.
"Gah", the ghost yelled next to him.
Zhen Zi translated and said: "She told you not to care about Xiao Yu'er. If you work hard for him, it is right for him to let you eat and drink well."
Yu Sheng kicked the demon and said, "You are almost becoming an uncle. What are you doing by putting the pot on the stove?"
Reminding Liu Liu to bask in the sun more, Yu Sheng put the basket of mushrooms in the back kitchen. He saw that the back kitchen was much spacious, and the garbage from the work had been cleared away by Uncle Shi and the others.
It was still early, so Yu Sheng asked everyone to stay away from the kitchen, closed the door and got busy.
There are corresponding kitchen utensils in the system, which were originally arranged during the system upgrade, but were delayed because the kitchen was too small.
But if you take it out now, you won’t have to consume merit points for the rest of your life.
Yu Sheng put a long table in the middle, dividing the kitchen into two, and made the side of the wall a place for him to fight.
There is a storage cabinet under the table. Ingredients and prepared meals are placed on the table so that Ye Zigao and the others can take them out.
There are also comfortable chairs placed outside the table, where Aunt Qing can sit and drink when she is bored watching in the kitchen.
The stove and all kitchen utensils are arranged on the side of the wall, and there is a vegetable washing and chopping area away from the lobby.
There are also shelves on the wall to store Yu Sheng’s supplies and various condiments.
On the table, Yu Sheng also made something that looked like a candlestick and placed the luminous pearl on it to use it as candlelight.
It's just a little darker, but don't be afraid, I'll go find my aunt when the time comes.
Two new large windows were opened in the back kitchen, and together with the original two windows and night pearls, it suddenly became much brighter and made people feel more comfortable.
After everything was arranged, Yu Sheng clapped his hands and looked at the orderly, classic yet stylish kitchen with great satisfaction.
"Now I just have to wait for myself to show off my skills."
Yu Sheng said something and then opened the door and went out. He saw that there was no one in the lobby and the singing had stopped.
The setting sun shines on the street from the direction of the archway, making the stone paths polished by shoe soles shine, leaving a warm color along the way.
Yu Sheng found Aunt Qing in the attic and pulled her downstairs.
"Remember to bring the luminous pearl." I will never forget to say it for the rest of my life.
"What are you doing?" Aunt Qing looked at him warily, there was always a rogue who wanted to steal the city lord's money.
"You'll know later." Yu Sheng couldn't help but push her to the kitchen to admire the fruits of his labor.
Standing at the door and seeing the suddenly spacious kitchen with the setting sun filling half of it, Aunt Qing asked in surprise: "Did you decorate these?"
"Of course." Yu Sheng asked Aunt Qing to sit on the chair and moved the candlestick over, "Look, there are still a few night-light pearls missing."
Aunt Qing glanced at it and saw that the night pearl was really good on the table, so she let the unruly people succeed.
"Okay," Yu Sheng clapped his hands with satisfaction, "Now I'll serve you a bowl of noodles."
Aunt Qing said happily: "Okay, hurry up, I've been looking forward to it for a long time."
Besides wine, she likes pasta the most, which is related to her life experience.
Her hometown is in the distant Central Plains, where noodles are the main food.
She later wandered to Yangzhou City and built it with the help of Yu Sheng's mother.
I seldom go back to the Central Plains. Only when I miss the taste of noodles, I will fly with my sword for more than a month. I rush back to the Central Plains just to relieve the pain of lovesickness.
But the pain of lovesickness is like the wine that fills the heart of sorrow, it will only be more bitter and lonely.
The Central Plains remains the same as before, but the days when she originally hoped to stay forever after immortality are gone forever.
Li Qingzhao, who had lost everything, once asked himself what the meaning of immortality was, but he could not find the answer before.
Yu Sheng's mother told her an answer, which is to play. Since there are no worries, it is better to play happily.
So she brought out a child to play with. Of course, the more reason was that Lao Yu was discouraged, so she had the rest of her life.
Her thoughts drifted away, and looking at Yu Sheng's busy figure, Aunt Qing suddenly understood the good intentions of Lao Yu and his wife.
After sealing his body for the rest of his life, Lao Yu left without telling him his life story, perhaps just to give him the meaning of existence.
Otherwise, life, no, the length of the rest of his life will drive him crazy.
When he woke up, he turned around and saw Aunt Qing in a daze. Yu Sheng turned around and took out a rice wine glass, took out the rice wine hidden in the refrigerator, and poured a glass for her.
"Try it." Yu Sheng pushed the cup over.
"What?" Aunt Qing took the cup and smelled it, and the rich flavor of rice wine penetrated her nose.
She took a sip and felt that it had a mellow taste and a long aftertaste, even with the simple aroma of almonds, honey, lotus leaves and even trees.
Aunt Qing suddenly came back from her melancholy, "Is this Huadiao?" She was impressed by this glass of ice wine.
Unlike the strong aroma after heating, the iced rice wine subverted Aunt Qing's understanding of it.
"Yes, does it taste good?" Yu Sheng, who was making noodles in front, turned around and said with a smile.
Traditionally, rice wine is warmed to remove impurities and at the same time warm the stomach and body, making it very atmospheric.
However, the rice wine exchanged by the system is of high quality, without impurities, and the cold drink has a unique flavor, even better than that after scalding.
"Yeah." Aunt Qing took the wine jar and poured herself a glass.
After two drinks, Li Qingzhao, who had not known how drunk he was, was a little tipsy.
She saw Yu Sheng kneading the dough tirelessly over and over again, even her forehead was stained with flour.
If asked again about the meaning of immortality, she felt that the years were quiet and peaceful.
Although it was strange, noodles could be redeemed in the system menu. Yu Sheng, who was kneading noodles for the first time, breathed a sigh of relief after the success.
Smoothly take out the prepared rolling pin, Yu Sheng shapes the noodles into a square shape with even thickness, sprinkle with fermented noodles, take out the knife and cut into slightly thin noodles.
Yu Sheng's knife skills are different from those in the past. The cuts are well-proportioned and rhythmic, which sounds very pleasant to the ear.
