It was a quiet afternoon. Although it was late autumn, there was not much chill in the south of the Yangtze River.

The northern geese fly south, the autumn air is crisp, and the sky is clear.

One dish after another was served on the stone table, and the aroma suddenly filled the courtyard. Until there was no more plates left on the table, Xu Xian sighed slightly and said, "There are only so many." A good chef,

It can determine the maximum number of dishes that can be placed on a table, and now it has reached the limit.

Sun'er was surprised and said: "Uncle, we have run out of food for half a month."

Xu Xian said proudly, "To repay my kindness, eat all the dishes to thank me!" Xu Xian introduced the dishes to the two of them and urged: "Eat quickly!"

Yu Xuanji was stunned for a long time and finally started to use his chopsticks. He was completely frightened by the large table of dishes just now. He gently picked up a piece of potato, and saw that the potato was cut as thin as cicada wings.

There is a saying in it, called moon halo. I put it in my mouth, tasted some, and praised it, "It's really good, isn't it?"

Xu Xian chuckled: "I haven't made it for a long time, I'm afraid I can't compare to you!" He thought that the pastries made by this senior sister were so top-notch, so she must have excellent cooking skills.

Yu Xuanji's face turned red. Before he could say a few polite words, Sun'er jumped up and gestured: "Master just cuts the vegetables like this, then puts them in the pot and boils them! Uncle Master still does it."

It’s delicious!”

Yu Xuanji blushed and scolded: "Don't eat if you talk any more." Sure enough, Sun'er didn't say a word again, but started eating with all his strength. In the end, Xu Xian was stunned. He didn't expect such a smart little boy.

The girl can actually eat like this.

Yu Xuanji explained: "Sun'er is not a human! After eating your meal, she won't have to eat anything for this month." Xu Xian suddenly realized. In spite of his busy schedule, Sun'er raised her head and smiled at Xu Xian, her cheeks bulging.

, there were still a few grains of rice stuck to his mouth. Xu Xian was full of affection for the diners who could finish the dishes he cooked. If Yu Xuanji hadn't been there, he would have hugged and shouted "kawaii" before morning.

It was only in the afternoon that Xu Xian realized that the Talisman Technique was so difficult to learn. Such complicated pictures and texts had to be completed in one stroke, and there was also a time limit. He had no problem with the distribution of spiritual energy, and he had some control over the use of spiritual energy.

Thoughts. But I can’t draw the symbols well.

Xu Xian was sweating profusely, and his drawings were all about his favorite invisibility talisman, but several of the twists were like the five consecutive hairpin turns in "Initial D". They were not that difficult, and he obviously couldn't.

He knows how to drift. Once the strokes become stiff, the aura cannot keep up, and the previous drawing will be in vain.

Failed again. Xu Xian looked at the ghostly talismans all over the floor and put down his pen in despair. After studying for almost an hour, he didn't even learn this talisman. Little did he know that it was extremely rare for him to do this. He still relied on his own spiritual power.

Only by operating deeply and smoothly can you achieve such a level quickly. Ordinary people don't even have to think about it. Practice makes perfect just by using strokes, but if you want to infuse spiritual energy, you must have deep spiritual power.

Yu Xuanji picked up the pen that Xu Xian left behind and drew a random sketch on the white paper next to him. It was the invisibility talisman that Xu Xian wanted to learn. The aura was even and not just superficial. Under the strict monastic education system in Xingxiu Hai, Xu Xian was far from the same.

It can be compared to becoming a monk halfway.

Yu Xuanji consoled him: "This invisibility talisman is relatively complicated. Let's learn Yunzhuan first! Then I will teach you how to draw complex patterns, and then you will be able to draw the talisman." She is still very interested in being a master.

Passionate.

Xu Xian smiled bitterly. His need for strength was time-limited. He met Bai Suzhen on the Qingming Festival, maybe in the spring of next year. If he couldn't learn any skills by then, he might be captured and become a monk.

Even if there was no Bai Suzhen in this world, he would never want to be a monk. He could only ask: "Sister, is there any quick way?"

Yu Xuanji was about to put on the face of a strict master and lecture Xu Xian, but looking at his pitiful appearance, he felt a little soft-hearted. No, of course not soft-hearted, but to proceed step by step and not to make Xu Xian get bored with Taoism. She was so

Thinking about it, I couldn't help but think of the time when I was learning to draw talisman.

Then he ordered, "Pick up the pen."

Xu Xian immediately picked up the pen obediently, and then Yu Xuanji grabbed Xu Xian's hand and said, "I'll help you with the pen, you just need to spread the spiritual energy."

A slender plain hand was placed on Xu Xian's hand, as delicate as fine porcelain. Xu Xian was stunned for a moment, seeing Yu Xuanji's expressionless face, and seemed to be unconcerned, thinking that she was a Taoist who probably didn't pay attention to such things, so she suppressed and dispersed the trace in her heart.

Nian Nian, concentrate on conveying spiritual energy. This method is very fast, and it is done in just one try. Although it is impossible for Xu Xian to be able to draw by himself immediately, he has also vaguely touched a lot of skills. This is the difference between having a teacher and not having a teacher.

A little tweaking of the orifice can save endless effort.

It's just that if Xu Xian turned around, he should have seen the faint blush on Yu Xuanji's face. Taoist cultivators don't care much about human etiquette, so they went to hold Xu Xian's hand. But Yu Xuanji's master was also a woman, and he was held at that time

She didn't feel much at all, but it was the first time in her life that she had skin-to-skin contact with a man. No matter how good she was, she was still a woman before she could achieve that ruthless and sexless path. Only by experiencing it could she understand that it was not as bad as she imagined.

Simple.

After only one time, he refused to hold it again and let Xu Xian practice by himself. Although Xu Xian had some slight regrets, his mind was attracted to the wonderful Taoism and he didn't care much.

Finally, Xu Xian drew the outline with his pen, and the yellow paper runes were completed. The invisibility talisman was finally completed, and it was in a completely perfect state. Yu Xuanji nodded with satisfaction after seeing it, "Well, it's not bad, although it won't last long.

It’s too long, but it’s done.”

Xu Xian looked at the horizon. The red clouds were burning and the jackdaws were returning to their nests. It was already dusk. "Sister, it's getting late." After saying goodbye, he hurriedly left.

Yu Xuanji shook his head. Although he was not too hungry yet, it was time to prepare dinner. There was no need for the bamboo shoots, just prepare his own. But when he thought about the things he made, he usually didn’t feel that way. He just wanted to wrap them up.

It's fine, but now she's a little bit unhappy. Although her practice method is not taboo, she still makes do with the situation, and she doesn't care much about the desire of words, but now it is difficult to switch from extravagance to frugality!

Entering the kitchen, there was a gurgling sound in the pot, and I opened the bamboo cage, which was covered with a few side dishes. Bamboo shoots, who had been running around all afternoon, came out and giggled: "Uncle Shi just prepared this, thank you."

."

Only then did Yu Xuanji remember that Xu Xian had just come back a while ago on the pretext of getting some paper. She thought he was deliberately trying to be lazy, but she didn't expect him to be here. The dishes were all her favorites, so she must have paid attention to hers at noon.

The taste is good, and it is intentionally made lighter.

Chew slowly, the food is sweet, how many people in the world can surprise her?

Back at the academy, Xu Xian lay lazily on the bed, feeling that his hands were a little sore. He ate too much at noon, and he didn't feel hungry, but rather drowsy.

Pan Yu pushed the door open and came in, smiling and said: "Hanwen, did you go and get it today?" Xu Xian was not around today. She knew that he was looking for the fish mystery, and she was always unhappy. Sometimes she looked back and wanted to say

What, only to find that there was no one around me.

That smile made Xu Xian feel a little inexplicably uneasy. But he thought he had done nothing wrong, so he told the truth frankly.

Pan Yu was silent for a long time, then suddenly smiled and said: "I was just going to say that you missed the beauty's poetry recital today, but unexpectedly you spent the whole day with another beauty."

Xu Xian explained: "That's my senior sister, I learned Taoism from him."

Pan Yu let out an ooh, hesitated and asked, "Hanwen, you, do you really want to cultivate immortality?" She also often heard that people abandoned their homes and careers and went into the mountains in order to seek immortality. I don't know if it was true.

After attaining the Tao and becoming an immortal, he still becomes a prey for wolves. Anyway, we will never see each other again in this world. If Xu Xian really wants to cultivate immortality, there is no way to stop him.

"I'm just learning some magic. I never thought about becoming immortal. Don't worry, I won't leave this city of Hangzhou."

Pan Yu said expectantly: "The first snow trial day is coming soon, stop running around and come and help me!"

"Where do you need my help? Besides, I've made an agreement with them."

"Well, let's go as promised."

The next day, Xu Xian only slept until he was drowsy before getting up.

Xu Xian yawned and asked, "Mingyu, where's breakfast?"

"Ah, I was so busy that I forgot to bring it."

"Then what should I eat?" Xu Xian was also used to being dependent.

"Let's go eat at the fish chef's place. Isn't she good at making pastries?"

For more than ten days, Xu Xian went to Xuanji Temple every day to learn how to draw talismans and help Master Yu Xuanji solve the problem of eating. He came back in the evening. He gradually became familiar with the talismans, but the senior sister refused to hold his hand and teach him, saying that he would understand it by himself.

.

Pan Yu glared at Xu Xian, who had just returned: "Hanwen, tomorrow is the first snow test, you won't go to that mysterious view again!" Even she herself felt like a resentful woman, her husband went out to sleep in flowers and willows, and she

He gritted his teeth at home and stayed alone in the empty room. But because of her identity, she couldn't find any reason to restrain him, which made her really depressed.

Xu Xian originally meant that it didn't matter. It was not his turn to participate in the first snow test. It was just reciting poems and answering questions, which was not interesting. But after hearing Pan Yu's words, he had a feeling for some reason that it would definitely happen if he didn't agree.

It was a scary thing, so he nodded: "Okay, let's go and see the excitement tomorrow."
