Chapter 11 The end of the world is coming soon
Lin Mo lay on the bed for a long time, so long that he really fell asleep.
There was silence all around, no sound was heard, could it be that Xia Jinghan had already left?
Lin Mo opened his eyes suspiciously, but the scene in front of him almost made him scream.
Xia Jinghan was standing by the bed and looking at him!
"You really scare people to death! Am I that good-looking?" Lin Mo patted his chest and sat up.
"It looks good." Xia Jinghan's tone was very serious.
"..." Facing this serious answer, Lin Mo didn't know how to react, but felt a little hot on his face. "You...why haven't you gone back yet?"
"You remind me of something."
"what?"
Looking at the young man's ignorant face, Xia Jinghan curled the corners of his lips.
In a daze, Lin Mo saw Xia Jinghan smiling at him, that smile was fleeting, like a pear blossom blowing away in the wind.
Xia Jinghan took a deep look at Lin Mo, turned and left.
These thousands of yearnings seemed to go away with the wind, and he finally passed the tribulation of love.
Lin Mo looked at Xia Jinghan's back as he went away, feeling empty in his heart.Why does he think Xia Jinghan is inexplicable today?
For the next few days, Lin Mo didn't see Xia Jinghan.
Then came the "press conference" of Lin Mo's "Using Food to Improve Dao".
Lin Mo was invited to the Qingming Hall of Tianshu Peak. The hall is full of various kitchen utensils. Although it is not as easy to use as Lin Mo's own frying pan, which can be changed at will, Lin Mo still reluctantly does so in order not to arouse the suspicion of the immortal masters. used it.
In fact, he doesn't need so many tableware, a few large pots are enough.Because what he wants to do is big!pot!vegetable!
Lin Mo has been pondering for a long time in the kitchen these days. With so many disciples in Changqi Mountain, plus the monks from other immortal sects who came here admiringly, he would be exhausted to death even if he has ten hands!
Although cooking can be done with the help of spiritual power and talismans, that's enough for him!
Under the horrified eyes of all the monks, Lin Mo threw all kinds of ingredients into the pot. He was very good at knives, and the red, green and green vegetables and fish were sliced into thin slices with his sharp kitchen knife and thrown into the pot.
Watching him cook is undoubtedly a kind of visual enjoyment, not to mention the taste, but this set of smooth and flowing movements is more exciting than many monks' fighting skills.
Lin Mo cooked a large pot of boiled fish, and the spicy heat spread in the hall, followed by a pot of boiled vegetables, although it looked bland, it was full of the unique natural aroma of vegetables.It's not over yet, Lin Mo also made sauced beef and braised pig's trotters.
Then came the staple food. For convenience, Lin Mo cooked a pot of eight-treasure porridge and steamed a pot of eight-treasure rice.
Finally, he took out the red bean smoothie, sago dew and other cold drinks that he had made these days.
The monks in the hall looked at him in rapt attention, some even opened their mouths in horror.
Lin Mo looked at the monks who were struck by lightning around him, and said slowly: "Meat corresponds to gold of the five elements, vegetables correspond to wood of the five elements, spicy and hot food corresponds to fire of the five elements, and grains correspond to the element of five elements." Soil, as for cold drinks such as red bean smoothie, it corresponds to the water of the five elements."
The monks looked at each other in disbelief. Lin Mo cast his eyes on Xia Jinghan who was sitting upright in the hall. The other party's face was still watery, but Lin Mo felt relieved when he saw him, and then said: "The five elements are mutually generated and restrained. These laws are not true. Absolutely. What's more, there is often more than one kind of raw material in a dish, and it also needs to be supplemented with various seasonings. I'm just giving you a general direction."
The head Jiang Yumu cleared his throat, and said loudly: "Little friend Lin is right, everyone can queue up to receive food according to the attributes of their spiritual roots."
All the monks got up one after another and lined up to get the food in front of the pot. Lin Mo felt a little funny seeing this scene. If these immortal monks ignored their clothes and the rich ingredients in the pot, it would look like queuing up to get porridge refugees.
The aroma of food filled the entire Qingming Hall, and the high-ranking chief seats were also moved by their index fingers.But due to scruples about the image, he didn't show it at all.
But Liu Changsheng, the head seat of Kaiyang Peak, who was already famous for his love of food, didn't have so many scruples, and directly served the food and vegetables by himself.
Liu Rumeng couldn't hold it any longer, and followed her apprentice Xu Wanling to eat and drink without any hesitation.
Lin Mo looked up at the aloof Xia Jinghan. In the smoke and fire, he was still so cold and indifferent, as if everything in front of him had nothing to do with him.
Lin Mo hesitated, but still didn't have the courage to take out the iced almond tofu he made.
Most of the monks have been fasting for many years, and now Lin Mo's food has aroused a strong desire to eat. Many people can't help worrying that they will be unstable because of this, but after eating Lin Mo's food, they just feel refreshed Feeling refreshed and energetic, he couldn't help but have a strong interest in Lin Mo, a countryman.
However, the end result was somewhat disappointing.
Everyone knows that Mo Changfeng and Xu Wanling broke through the realm one after another because they ate a few mouthfuls of the rattan pepper fish made by Lin Mo, and an hour has passed, and now nearly a hundred monks who have eaten Lin Mo's food feel more energetic A little bit, but there is no sign of breaking through the realm.
Is there something wrong?Even Lin Mo was puzzled.After thinking about it, the ingredients and techniques are the same as before. Is it because of the kitchen utensils?
But he didn't use his own universal frying pan when cooking rattan pepper fish in Liuxian Village, what happened...
Although there was no effect after a long time, Lin Mo was famous after all, and he felt comfortable all over after eating the food he cooked, so the monks still adjusted their breath and meditated, persistently waiting for the breakthrough.
However, a whole day passed, and the breakthrough that everyone expected did not come.
Jiang Yumu rubbed his nose in embarrassment, and said, "That's all for today, please go back to the peak and wait and see what happens."
Although the monks were surprised, they didn't dare to say anything. Ling Ruoxu, who was straightforward and straightforward, said sullenly: "Is there something wrong with today's dishes?"
His words made everyone's eyes focus on Lin Mo.
Lin Mo coughed twice, feeling a little speechless: "I have always cooked this way, and the ingredients are also provided by Changqi Mountain, so there is no problem."
Ling Ruoxu wanted to say something, but before he could open his mouth, Xia Jinghan interrupted him: "Everyone really believes that you can break through the realm just by eating one dish? Then what's the point of practicing hard?"
Xia Jinghan's words made the Qingming hall fall into silence, and no one spoke for a long time.
Xia Jinghan walked down his seat slowly: "Old Freak Tanzhou also mentioned in the "Hundred Dishes Collection" that food refining Dao depends on chance, luck, as well as one's own bones, talents, etc. There are many factors, not everyone can be like Mo Changfeng and Xu Wanling."
Mo Changfeng and Xu Wanling looked at each other, feeling that they had picked up the biggest pie in the sky.
After hearing this explanation, Lin Mo didn't feel much disappointed. Such things as cultivating the Dao with food can really be just a matter of fate. It seems that he has no destiny to be the savior and save the life of the entire cultivation world.
The monks who were full of hope just now were like eggplants that had been wilted by frost, each one of them was downcast.
"Okay, the road to cultivation is mysterious and unpredictable, and everything is hard to come to a conclusion. You just need to focus on the Tao..."
The head of the restaurant, Jiang Yumu, poured a pot of chicken soup for everyone, and then announced the dissolution of the "tasting meeting".
He looked at the people who filed out and felt a chill, could it be that the Six Great Immortal Sects were finished like this?Is this the end of the cultivation world?
……
At night, Lin Mo tossed and turned and couldn't fall asleep. He came to the courtyard under the moonlight like water, and saw the figure standing under the pear tree at a glance.
Is this a dream?A trace of doubt slipped through his mind, he remembered that he had had such a dream.
The sound of the flute flowed like moonlight, Xia Jinghan raised his eyes to look at Lin Mo, the two stood opposite each other under a pear tree, silent.
Lin Mo suddenly felt that this scene was very familiar, as if he had experienced the same scene before, but he couldn't remember it.
"Why aren't you sleeping?" Xia Jinghan's indifferent tone contained a hint of concern.
"Can't sleep."
"Why?"
Lin Mo hesitated for a moment, but still expressed the doubt in his heart: "Are the six immortal sects very dangerous now?"
"To be precise, the whole world of comprehension is very dangerous." Xia Jinghan's tone was still flat, and there was no trace of anxiety.
"So what do we do? I mean what do we do?"
"It is inevitable that prosperity will decline. The orthodox sect headed by the Six Great Immortal Sects has been at its peak for nearly ten thousand years. Now Changqi Mountain is still strong. Among the disciples of the younger generation, there is actually a monk like Mo Changfeng in the Nascent Soul Stage. It has not existed for thousands of years. However, behind this seemingly strong, the strength of the six immortal sects has been exhausted, because judging from the current situation, the power of the demonic way is obviously stronger."
Lin Mo nodded, expressing that he understood the reason: "But... don't we do anything?"
"Follow the trend, you can hurry up and practice hard. After all, your food may not have a good effect on others, but it is still beneficial to yourself. Wait until the last moment, and you won't die too badly."
Xia Jinghan said it so bluntly, but Lin Mo didn't care much. He said that the food he made really benefited him a lot, and he even showed signs of entering the foundation building period these days.
"I'm going to start retreat tomorrow, take care of yourself." The two were silent for a while, and Xia Jinghan spoke lightly.
Lin Mo was a little surprised, but considering the current crisis-ridden situation, he thinks Xia Jinghan's choice is not difficult to understand: "How long will it take?"
"Not sure yet."
His tone was still indifferent, Lin Mo lowered his head, feeling a little sad suddenly.
After thinking for a moment, Lin Mo took out the almond tofu that he put in the storage bag early in the morning and handed it to Xia Jinghan, but he didn't dare to look him in the eyes.
When Xia Jinghan took the jade bowl, his cool fingertips touched him, and Lin Mo felt palpitations.
After another long silence, Lin Mo turned to say goodbye.
"Lin Mo..."
Lin Mo froze when he heard Xia Jinghan's call. This seemed to be the first time Xia Jinghan called his name.
He turned his head, Xia Jinghan's expressionless face seemed a little sad, he heard Xia Jinghan say to him: "Try to live."
