Chapter 37: The Figure in Front of the Stove

When Chen Sheng set foot on Zhuxia Peak again, it was already more than half a month later.

He was familiar with the duties of the Yaolu deacon, and it took him a while, and it took him half a month to pull weeds.

He slowed down his pace in studying the First-Order Spiritual Grass Illustrations, and instead reviewed the people and things before.

"Deacon Mo, you are polite."

He came to the Sutra Pavilion and saw Mo Dahai lying under the counter warming himself by the fire. He then spoke softly, cupped his hands and clasped his fists, as if he was visiting.

This was naturally a joke, and Mo Dahai knew it, and said with a smile: "Deacon Chen, you are so famous."

After saying that, the old man and the young man looked at each other and suddenly laughed loudly.

"How's it going over there?"

Mo Dahai knew very little about Medicine House. He heard that there was an alchemist who specialized in making pills there. It was an extremely important place in the outer sect.

"Very good, I have a good relationship with Alchemist Xi, and he is willing to teach me the knowledge of alchemy."

Chen Sheng talked about some common sense of the medicine house, its layout, staffing, etc. He also said that he got along well with Xi Fu and was a warm-hearted old man who was willing to teach him the knowledge of alchemy.

"Alchemy is a good skill, but you are good at it."

There was a hint of envy in Mo Dahai's words. When he was young, he also wanted to take the path of an alchemist, but he had no connections in this area and had no talents, so he could only be a pure immortal cultivator.

Killing in the wind and rain in the hope of immortality, but in the end it is difficult to achieve immortality.

"In the future, your descendants will tell you your name. I'm still alive, so it's not easy to learn."

Mo Dahai put aside the favors accumulated over decades to pave the way for Chen Sheng. He is not a heartless person and will definitely do whatever he can.

Mo Dahai cannot make up for this regret, but his descendants can try to walk on the path of alchemy.

"Then the old man can't shirk this time. I hope you will step into the ranks of alchemists early and provide a broader stage for my boy."

Hearing this, Mo Dahai was so excited that he almost smashed the armrests of the Grand Master's chair. This was an opportunity to become an alchemist. Even an old deacon like him couldn't do anything about it.

He has a clear vision of Chen Sheng's future, which is extremely extraordinary. It is a blessing for his descendants to receive such a promise.

"Old Mo, why are you so happy?"

Deacon Zhou came over and was a little surprised. Mo Dahai's blood color was extremely poor, but at such a time, he was laughing so hard that his face turned red. He was obviously extremely happy.

"Let me tell you, Brother Chen's luck is really not bad. He is already getting in touch with the alchemist's stuff. Why don't I reserve my seat in advance and let him give my descendants a chance."

Mo Dahai didn't keep it secret either. He told Chen Sheng about being an alchemist and secretly poked at it, causing Deacon Zhou to take action.

"I also want."

Deacon Zhou was extremely decisive and asked for help immediately. He could also herd one sheep or two sheep, and he would not increase the burden on Chen Sheng.

"good."

Chen Sheng agreed very simply. Deacon Zhou had worked hard for him to become the deacon of Yaolu, so it was a rare thing for him to have a big cake now.

"Old Mo, how long can your body last?"

After that, Deacon Zhou's expression turned to worry. He knew better about Mo Dahai's situation and that he would not be able to survive it for a long time.

"About half a year."

Mo Dahai smiled faintly.

Regarding this matter, he was already confident in his heart, so he couldn't say he was disappointed.

Besides, immortality is not easy to obtain.

He has been cultivating Taoism all his life, has never been invaded by poor people, has seen the vast world, has enjoyed blessings in his old age, and has a place for his descendants to go to. This is extremely complete.

"I still have a few more years to live, and I will offer you incense then."

Seeing that Mo Dahai's mood was peaceful, Deacon Zhou felt relieved.

What he was most afraid of was that some people in Mo Dahai knew they were going to die, but they still went through troubles, causing demons in their hearts, and they couldn't change the outcome, so they left in an ugly state.

"Even though that's what you said, I felt quite uncomfortable hearing it."

Mo Dahai laughed and cursed.

But I was also touched. Before I left, I still had an old friend by my side, which was a blessing.

"Go over to Qingjing Courtyard, Luzhu is already preparing a celebration banquet for my promotion to Yaolu Deacon."

Chen Sheng couldn't be like the two elderly care deacons and look down upon the death of an acquaintance, so he changed the subject and had prepared a celebration banquet before.

"Let's go then..."

The two elderly care deacons would not refuse the lively days, and walked out of the Sutra Pavilion together.

Clean little courtyard.

A temporary stove was built in the east corner.

Lu Zhu's figure is busy. She has prepared more than a dozen medicinal meals and placed them on the table. What she is cooking now is a Golden Flame free-range chicken.

Seeing Chen Sheng and the others coming over, she greeted, "Sit down, you'll be fine soon."

Said.

When the fire started, she put a spoon on the pot and stir-fried the chopped meat, and soon a burst of aroma spread out.

"You kid, you are so lucky."

Mo Dahai sat on a comfortable chair, looking at the dozen exquisite medicinal dishes in front of him and the busy Lvzhu, and he was extremely optimistic about Chen Sheng's rest of his life.

"Yes, yes, Luzhu is a disciple of Elder Fuyunzi. How has he ever done such a thing?"

Deacon Zhou also thinks so. Luzhu has good character and a good family background, and has always been praised. But now she is willing to work in front of the stove and work hard without complaint. No one can look at her without envy.

"Did you misunderstand something?"

There was a big question mark written on Mr. Chen's forehead, and he felt that the two elderly care deacons had misunderstood.

However, after being told this, he turned around and looked at Lv Zhu in front of the stove. He was dressed in green and had a square scarf on his head. The cuffs were rolled up, revealing a small half of his arm. It was as thin and white as a lotus root. Because he was close to the stove fire, he was wearing a scarf.

A little bit of sweat.

At this moment, he admitted that Luzhu's makeup was not as exquisite as usual, but it looked much better than before.

"alright."

After burning the incense, Luzhu came over with a plate of prepared Jinyan free-range chicken and told Chen Sheng and the others to start.

"tasty."

After Chen used the chopsticks, he was full of praise. Luzhu definitely put his heart into it, and every meal had a unique taste.

Because of his exposure to alchemy, he became more sensitive to pharmacology, and found that the combination of food ingredients and spiritual herbs was extremely harmonious.

All in all, these meals are perfect.

"Then you eat more."

Luzhu automatically ignored the compliments of the two pension deacons and looked at Chen Sheng eating well, with a pair of eyes as clear as water and a smile, like a bright moon bay.

"What did Elder Fuyunzi say?"

Chen Sheng saw Fu Yunzi helping him along the way, so he asked Lv Zhu to tell the teacher that he wanted to pay her a visit and thank her in person.

"Teacher said you just need to practice cultivation and you'll be fine."

Luzhu said truthfully.

"Elder Fuyunzi, a man of high righteousness."

Chen Sheng sighed in admiration. He had never even seen Fu Yunzi's face, but the old man had already given him a lot of gifts.

This kind of support without expecting anything in return is definitely a valuable quality in the world.

"That's because the teacher's reputation is excellent in the entire outer sect. He helps the juniors without asking for anything in return. Don't take this kindness too seriously, lest you feel bad about it."
