Chapter 87: Jade Cuisine Zhenfang The Method of Changing Hearts
Wei Zhong escaped into the secret realm of the Heart Seal through the "Twelve Mysterious Sutras", and the first time he saw them, they were all characters who were deeply related to the world of Ziwei.
The general pattern is just like that of Senior Brother Cheng Yi and Xi Zhenzi. Every disciple of the Temple of Shared Fate is inextricably linked to a certain famous figure in the world; it’s just that this The connection is deeply hidden.
After revealing the truth behind it, Wei Zhong felt that he had a deeper understanding of the ups and downs of luck and the rules of operation in this world.
But after a period of time, after all the familiar characters had been demonstrated, Wu Zhong's situation changed. It was as if he had entered an even stranger world, traveling alone as a guest.
Because I knew very well that the dream in this law would last for hundreds of years, I didn't want to do it, but I was not in a hurry. I just walked around and watched the scenery, as if I were seeing a fleeting glimpse of light.
I don’t know how long I walked alone, but at dawn that day, I suddenly stopped.
In front of it is a huge city, with dark stone surfaces and a tall feather wall on the front, which further adds to its power.
On the watchtower in the middle, the vigorous and powerful word "Qianqiu" is engraved.
Traffickers and footmen, as well as wooden carts, carts, and horse-drawn carriages, filled the eight gates in an endless stream.
Wei Zhong's heart moved, and he felt slightly in a trance.
She did indeed see the shadow of a city dozens of miles away, but it seemed to be a small city and not so majestic. Moreover, from the narrow road in the mountains to the giant city with tall buildings, it arrived in an instant without any transition. It's like lifting up a scroll and moving from one scroll to another instantly.
Uncertainly, he turned around and took a look.
I clearly remember in my mind that the two-foot-wide wooden bridge on the narrow mountain road that I came through has disappeared. Instead, there is a six-foot-wide pipe with billowing smoke and dust as far as the eye can see.
This is definitely not the way I came.
Turning around, he stared carefully at the word Qianqiu above the city. Suddenly, he felt a slight stab in his consciousness, and there were thick and dense messages, which seemed to be about the characters, history, customs and people of Qianqiu City. , all kinds of wonderful stories poured into her memory.
In an instant, Wei Zhong felt confident that he knew this place well.
My mind widened and I walked in through the front door calmly.
After walking for two or three miles, I stepped into a relatively bright street. There was a brown wooden plaque on the street with the word "know the taste" written on it. Looking around, I saw that the crowds were very dense. I sniffed lightly with my nose and found that it was indeed full of aroma. Overflowing, the five flavors are mixed together.
Wei Zhong took a closer look. At the end of this street were a few scattered high-rise buildings. He could vaguely see plaques in front of the doors saying "Yu Cuisine Fang", "Qian Zhen Tower" and "White Crane Tower". They were all established in Qianqiu City for hundreds of years. The above-mentioned well-known restaurants. But outside the high-rise buildings, in the two alleys nearby, dozens of small carts are lined up, selling various types of soups, noodles, and snacks.
There is no curfew in Qianqiu City. They operate alone and are open at 3:00 a.m. every day until midnight.
The closest place to the land of Wei Zhongzhangxu is a cart stall making "cakes". The owner of the stall is a very capable middle-aged man wearing a white scarf on his shoulders.
A charcoal fire and a small stove are placed in the middle of the car, and the semi-finished dough is placed at the bottom of the car. Twelve clay pots are hung on both sides of the beam, which are probably used to hold various "cakes" with different prices. Toppings.
Suddenly, two young men of seventeen or eighteen years old came to the side of the road, carrying bamboo book bags on their backs, as if they were first-class scholars who came to Beijing to take the exam. They took seven or eight copper coins and ordered two folders each. For the bread, one person added bacon and the other person added haggis.
During the short time that the two people were waiting for the sandwich to be made, they were mumbling something to themselves.
When Wu Zhong listened carefully, he found that it was probably the prose of the sages that he had memorized. He was excited for a moment and found it interesting.
After a while, the two scholars took the wrapped bread and left.
Although the "cakes" at this stall are independently run snacks, they have a strong aroma and are of good quality. I have been unintentionally repairing them for a long time, and I couldn't help but want to dabble in fireworks and travel around the world. Shi Shiran came here
In front of the car, he quickly glanced at the clay pot with a sticky note on it and said: "A piece of minced meat pie."
The stall owner immediately agreed.
As the stall owner moved, he thought of the various people in the city, each chasing them with different intentions, and felt his mind gradually become more active. Suddenly, a strange idea came to his mind, why not go to Qianqiu City's "Testing Station" to explore and play the role of a
A scholar who aspires to fame will see his joy and sorrow...
Just as he was thinking about it, the stall owner already said: "Bachelor, you want the minced meat pie."
Wei Zhong was startled and his eyes met the stall owner.
The owner of the stall looked stunned and didn't know what was going on. He repeated: "Bachelor, you want the minced meat cakes."
After speaking, he carefully handed the bandaged pouch forward.
Wei Zhong paused for a moment, took a look at his hair that was spread over his shoulders, and then reached out to take it.
In Qianqiu City, people dressed as scholars are given the honorific title of "Bachelor". For example, the two scholars just before Wei Zhong were also addressed as "Bachelor" by the stall owners.
Zhu Fangguo, women have no right to participate in scientific examinations.
Although Wei Zhong was wearing a simple uniform for traveling, she was not disguised as a man, especially her hair shawl, which was a very obvious sign.
Not to mention the most common iconic accessories for students - square crowns, folding fans, book baskets, etc., Wei Zhong didn't have any of them.
An unintended thought turned around, and I seemed to have some enlightenment.
I wasn't in a hurry to eat the pancake, so I hid it in my pocket. I walked a few miles further and came to the six-story "Jade Cuisine Shop" with golden sculptures and blue tiles.
The people who come in and out here are all wealthy officials and dignitaries wearing silk clothes, and almost everyone is surrounded by a crowd of one to three people.
However, three feet away from the gate, there were also beggars with skinny bones and tattered clothes. Although they were constantly chased away by gardeners holding wooden sticks inside and outside the building gate, their ghosts still lingered around.
Because people who come in and out of here are very wealthy from time to time, either out of kindness or showing off, and just throw away gold and silver. As long as there is an opportunity, people who win the jackpot will use this to "get rid of poverty"
"Yes.
For these beggars, this is their dream place to jump over the dragon's gate.
Fortunately, these beggars also have a good eye, so they will not surround the main entrance and ruin the dignity of the place. At most, they will only watch from a distance about three feet away.
Wei Zhong secretly looked at a beggar sitting lazily on the side of the street holding a wooden stick for a long time, and blinked.
Then he stood up and walked straight to the main entrance of "Jade Food Zhenfang".
"Stop!"
"Get away!"
Before she stepped through the door, two low shouts sounded.
Hidden behind the gate, one on the left and one on the right, two strong and powerful men with kerchiefs on their heads came closer.
Especially the one on the right, his eyes are slightly protruding when he is angry, which is very effective in intimidating him.
The two men were holding short, thick maroon wooden sticks, and they were about to beat them out.
It should be noted that although Wei Zhong's clothes at this time were simple, he was very neat and tidy, and he was definitely not related to beggars. Moreover, his true appearance and temperament, which had gone far in the Taoism, were almost peerless in the secular world. No matter who saw it,
Well, not to mention that I was immediately heartbroken, at least I would give him three points of thin noodles, so I wouldn’t be so rude.
I feel like I have some realization in my heart.
Facing the two people approaching, he remained indifferent and just raised his head for no apparent reason.
At this moment, you can have a clear view to the southwest on the right side of the attic.
The shape of the Jade Food Zhenfang is that the first floor is a dining hall for individual guests. The city's wealthy Fangguo households often have light meals here; while the fourth to sixth floors are all closed private rooms.
.
The second and third floors are more special. Each table is far away from each other and does not interfere with each other. However, it is only separated by simple screens and is not completely isolated. This is also a popular choice. Some nobles and nobles like to be quiet.
, and did not want to be too closed, so we set up such a camp.
What Wei Zhong saw was a twenty-seven or eight-year-old young man dressed in brocade robes, leaning alone on a jade couch by the window, leisurely eating hot pot.
After seeing the scene, Wei Zhong slowly closed his eyes.
The two maroon wooden sticks were swinging vigorously, one to the left and one to the right, but stopped when they were only three inches away from Wei Zhong's forehead and shoulders.
The two gardeners looked at each other, their faces suddenly full of fear and confusion, and cold sweat dripped down their foreheads.
They were as frozen as clay sculptures for three or five breaths. The two immediately threw the wooden sticks aside, reached out and slapped each other seven or eight times very quickly, and said in their mouths: "Damn it, little one, I was hit by a nightmare and passed out.
I bowed my head, sir, please forgive me."
Then he knelt down on the ground and kowtowed six or seven times.
Wei Zhong nodded secretly and said with a smile: "It doesn't matter."
He asked the two of them to stand up, and Wu Zhai focused his magic power on them, freezing them for a moment. Then he took a look at their pupils, and couldn't help but be secretly surprised.
I just took things as they came, so I simply went to the fifth floor of "Yu Cui Zhen Fang", found a private room to sit down, and ordered six or seven side dishes at will.
She has roughly understood the reason for this experience.
In front of a stall making pancakes, she accidentally met two students and felt empathy, so she became a "bachelor" in front of the stall owner.
Then, in order to verify, she pretended that she was a beggar and entered through the front door.
The attitude of the two gardeners really confirmed my suspicion.
The final solution to the siege is naturally ready to come out.
However, in the end, the two gardeners reacted so aggressively, which was unexpected. The reason may be that the young man on the third floor is not an ordinary wealthy businessman, but a person with a great background.
The most bizarre thing is that Wei Zhong observed the eyes of the two gardeners. In fact, his true image in the eyes of the two people did not change from beginning to end. It was the image of this simple and beautiful woman. And their "understanding" of himself.
But an earth-shaking change took place.
Compared with the "disguise technique" and other methods, I don't know how much more sophisticated it is, so it can be called "disguise technique" for the time being.
Wei Zhong suddenly thought that in this world, there are also people who are close to the Taoist realm. I wonder if his "mind-changing technique" can be effective on people who are practicing Taoism?
