In a remote open space outside Little Sage Village, Tianming happily held a roast chicken and ate it wildly.
The most important reason why he was able to persevere under the rigorous training of Chef Ding was this delicious meal.
Needless to say, this fat guy’s cooking skills are really good. He can make a simple roast chicken look fancy. It’s golden in color, crispy and tender in skin, and has a uniform and thorough taste. It’s so much better than what Tianming roasted himself.
Go.
But this is just an appetizer. If he continues training, he will be able to enjoy the delicious dishes that Chef Ding is really good at tomorrow. Yesterday, he had four dishes.
Cook Ding, who was sitting cross-legged on the ground, was not as happy as Tianming.
This guy is so dishonest!
Today's training only lasted for more than half an hour, and Tian Ming was already complaining of fatigue, so Cook Ding had no choice but to make him a roast chicken to comfort him for the time being.
Yesterday's training was similar. It lasted almost an hour, and he had four delicious dishes.
Of course, it’s okay if you just eat more frequently.
Isn't it just about eating? How can I, a professional cook, beat you?
What's more, the beef-fighting knife technique taught to Tianming by Chef Ding is inherently special. Its moves are the names of the dishes, and each move also contains the key points of the corresponding dish.
Theoretically, as long as you learn to understand the skills of a master chef, you can become more or less a half-master chef - you may not be able to cook it yourself, but you can easily find the omissions in other people's cooking.
On this basis, as long as you study hard, it is not difficult to become a famous chef. This is how Chef Ding's reputation as a "magic chef" has been passed down from generation to generation.
Things are a bit special when it comes to Tianming. This kid loves to eat delicious food, but he doesn't like to cook delicious food. He is at least somewhat interested in roast chicken, but not much else.
But it doesn’t matter, Pao Ding doesn’t train Tianming as his successor, nor does he have any intention of letting him inherit the name of Pao Ding. He just teaches him how to master the sword.
At the same time, there is a tradition in teaching the knife technique of cutting beef, that is, when you learn a certain knife technique, you can taste the corresponding dish. For example, if you learn the dish of Kung Pao Chicken, you can enjoy this dish to your heart's content. p>
Tianming was able to eat four dishes of fish-flavored shredded pork, kung pao chicken, chopped pepper fish head, and mapo tofu yesterday. In addition to the fact that Chef Ding wanted to appease him, the other reason is that Chef Ding is currently teaching these four styles of knives.
Law.
According to convention, this is what you should eat, but this tradition exists to allow learners to learn the knife skills themselves and at the same time observe the cooking process, so as to learn by analogy and understand the mystery.
It's a pity that Tianming is only responsible for the eating part, and he skips the rest...
In the end, probably due to the superposition of various influences, Tianming's study progress is very worrying anyway - this is the core reason for Pao Ding's melancholy.
The four sword techniques he has chosen to teach Tianming are all carefully selected, and they are all core moves used to lay the foundation. As long as you master these moves, the subsequent learning will be much easier.<
/p>
But Tianming's performance... is difficult to describe in a nutshell.
Generally speaking, basic moves have a common characteristic - easy to learn but difficult to master, such as the stabbing, teasing, and picking moves in the basics of swordsmanship.
Pao Ding once had an unrealistic fantasy that Tian Ming would suddenly act like a genius. He would advance rapidly, and he would be able to draw parallels and quickly learn the tricks of the trade.
No two.
But he never expected that Tianming would be so useless!
After studying for more than an hour yesterday and today, I can’t even figure out a basic move!
When Pao Ding learned martial arts, he was already said by his elders that his talent was mediocre, but these four moves only took one day in total. In fact, he was completely proficient in it within a few hours.
Tianming is good, it seems like he hasn’t practiced after practicing, let alone getting started, even the threshold is short of a large courtyard with three entrances and three exits.
Cook Ding felt as if Tianming had taken everything he learned into his stomach and excreted it with food.
Pao Ding was quite proud of the fact that he successfully tricked Tian Ming yesterday and forced him to learn the art of cutting off the knife from him. He also felt a little disdainful of what Master Ban and others had said.
If you can’t teach me, it means you don’t know how to teach!
However, not even the next day, he realized that he had been complacent too early.
Just because someone is unwilling to learn and cannot learn, does not mean that he can learn if he is willing to learn.
While Cook Ding lamented Tianming's talent for stretching his hips, he also felt that it was very strange. Judging from Tianming's performance that day, he was obviously a good young boy with innate responsiveness. How could he act as if he was paralyzed?
In front of the Holy Land of Confucianism and the glory of Master Confucius, Cook Ding wanted to ask: Is this appropriate?
Master Kong was not interested in responding to Cook Ding, but Tianming was very willing to express his opinion: Am I so insignificant in front of your eyes?
So when we say that this ritual is in the Ganges River, it’s almost like it’s in the Taihe River.
After finishing the roast chicken, Tianming licked his fingers and approached Cook Ding, and asked excitedly, "Hey, Fatty Ding, what are we having for dinner today? Are there any new dishes?"
"Haha...hehe..." Cook Ding raised his head and looked at the young man with a stiff smile, "A new dish?"
"According to the rules, you can't eat other dishes before you master these tricks, so if you want to eat fresh ones, just work hard."
Pao Ding made his last effort to arouse Tianming's fighting spirit.
"That's it..." Tianming was really disappointed when he heard the news. He lowered his head in joy, but quickly raised it again, "That's okay. The dishes you cooked are so delicious. I think these four are the only ones.
It’s enough for me to eat for a month or two without getting tired of it, not to mention there’s roast chicken.”
"Hey hey hey..."
Tianming showed an easy-to-satisfy smile and was not greedy at all.
The chef who was recognized for his cooking skills was also very excited, with a bright smile on his face and cursing in his heart.
It is simply unreasonable to imitate others at such a young age!
You still need to practice the four basic moves for a month or two, but by the time you finish learning the sword skills, grass will grow on your grave!
After thinking about it happily, Tianming asked casually, "Are you still going to practice, Fatty Ding?"
The depressed Chef Ding immediately waved his hand and said, "Practice! Of course!"
Look how hard I drill you!
I, Fatty Ding, still don’t believe it. Doesn’t the mud definitely not reach the wall?
………………
The remote coast of Songhai, where the mirage factory is located.
Today, the ship is much quieter. All the renovation projects have been completed and we are just waiting to restart and sail back to Songhai port.
Given the size and tonnage of the mirage, it is obviously unrealistic to rely on sail power, and it would also be a bit troublesome to rely on manpower.
Fortunately, although there are no steam engines or internal combustion engines in this world, there are Mohists and public losers.
They have black technology!
The power system of the mirage was mainly designed by the public losers, and some of the Yin Yang family's tricks were also mixed into it. In short, the final product has two characteristics - long-lasting and no consumption.
Rounding it off, it’s no different than nuclear power.
Of course, some manpower is needed as assistance to control the direction and so on.
However, there are also disadvantages, that is, the startup is very slow, and it takes an hour or two as quickly as possible, or as little as three hours, four, five, or six hours to make preliminary preparations.
The mirage is now in a state of preparation before setting sail, but these things are basically carried out in the lowest cabin and cannot be seen by others.
At this time, in a room on the port side above the deck, there were bright golden lights shining, and a small, hazy and chaotic gilded energy slowly swam in the air.
Behind the light, Chitaki's small figure is reflected on the wall.
The little girl's eyes were reflected in a golden light, exuding the brilliance of blgblg, full of wonder and curiosity.
"Mom, is this what you are talking about... Longyou's Qi?"
Beside Qianlong, Concubine Yan nodded, "That's right."
Concubine Yan's eyes were filled with wonder at this time. Although she had long known that her daughter's talent in onmyoji was unparalleled, she still couldn't help but admire her when she actually saw her display this talent.
In just half a month, Qianlong was introduced to Hunxi Longyou under her guidance, and today he truly released the spirit of Longyou.
Although it is very small and fragile, this is indeed the standard Longyou Qi.
This kind of talent can be described as terrifying.
After admiring, Concubine Yan immediately patted her daughter's palm gently, "Qianlong, stop."
"Oh." The little girl responded obediently, and then dissipated the hovering Long You Qi.
The golden light that filled the room suddenly dissipated, and the sun's rays took over the space again.
Qiantaki did not ask why, but Concubine Yan still took the initiative to explain to her daughter, "Your onmyoji practice is not enough. It is not good to forcefully release such powerful onmyoji. In the future, unless there are special circumstances or with my permission,
Otherwise, don’t use it rashly.”
Hunxi Longyou is the top and most powerful yin and yang technique. Normally, you need to practice yin and yang at least to the level of the third level mind control spell before you can barely use it. To use it proficiently, you need the fourth level astrology law.
cultivation level.
Therefore, although the five elders are also qualified to practice this technique, generally only the three sect leaders of the Sun, Moon and Star can do it, because the former's Yin and Yang skills are generally only at the level of the mind control spell.
Chitaki's level at this time was even lower. Although her talent was incredible, it only took more than a month to add up. It was just enough for her to enter the second realm of illusion art - it was precisely because of her
Today, I entered the second realm, and I could barely use the Soul Revealing Dragon Travel.
Alchemy is the first level of introduction to Yin Yang, and it is also the easiest level to break through.
The subject of the circulation of yin and yang and the conflict between the five elements is extremely grand and majestic to anyone. Even people like Bei Mingzi and Donghuang Taiyi dare not say that they have fully understood the Samadhi.
Not to mention others, so the practice of this level is completed as long as you get started. Generally speaking, you should understand the principles of the five elements, and then choose one of them as the follow-up direction before you can enter the next stage of practice.
Of course, there is a lot of room for further study in alchemy. For example, the current Minister of Jin, Yun Zhongjun, is deeply immersed in this path, far beyond ordinary people.
Chitaki also didn't have much further education and only dabbled in it. But even so, if you want to complete the first level of practice, even a genius like Wu Ling Xuan Tong will need one to two years.
And Chitaki only spent a month...
The difference between people is indeed greater than the difference between people.
In response to her mother's instructions, Qiantaki nodded her head and naturally followed them resolutely.
"I remember, mother."
At this time, a disciple of the Yin Yang family walked past the window - this room had windows on both sides, one side facing the inside of the mirage, and the other side facing the sea outside.
This disciple walked by the window in a hurry, and seemed to glance at the room by the way, but he hurried past as if Yan Fei and his daughter did not exist.
This is naturally the effect of Yan Fei's yin and yang illusion.
After Qiantaki glanced distractedly at the passerby, she turned her head and asked, "Mom, is the boat about to leave?"
Of course she didn't see it, but heard it from the conversations of people who had exposed it occasionally today.
Concubine Yan touched Qianlong's little head, nodded, and showed a warm smile, "Yes, we should be driving back to Songhai Port in a short time."
"You must be a little bored after staying on the ship for so long, right?"
"Hehe." Chitaki pursed his lips and smiled, his eyes turning into crescent moons, "Fortunately, this ship is too big, and there are many interesting places."
"Hmm... I feel like we haven't finished shopping yet."
"Don't worry, there is still a lot of time." Concubine Yan gently hugged her daughter's body and replied softly, "It's just a good time to take a rest today. Let's not practice Yin Yang for now."
"Yes." Chitaki followed the strength of her mother's arms and fell into her arms. Her gaze moved to the window and caught sight of the circular building at the top of the mirage.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!
The buildings above the mirage deck are all built directly in accordance with the palace regulations. They are basically square. Only that one is round and stands out from the crowd at the highest point, which is very eye-catching.
Chitaki has been to that place.
Unlike other places, the interior space of that building is very small and not connected to other places. It doesn’t take much time to look at it all.
But Chitaki has an extra curiosity about it.
After thinking for a while, Chitaki decided to talk about some playing time and asked decisively, "Mother."
As she said that, she pointed to the tallest building and asked, "Who is that girl inside?"
The building Chitaki was curious about was naturally the Toad Palace.
Her extra curiosity about the place came first from the fact that there was a girl about the same size as her, and secondly from the fact that her mother had a different attitude towards that place and maybe towards that girl than elsewhere.
Qiantaki clearly remembered that after entering there and seeing the girl, her mother murmured something to herself:
Didn’t it fail...
As a well-behaved child...at least a well-behaved child in front of her mother, Qiantaki did not immediately pester Concubine Yan to ask about this matter, because since she started learning Yin Yang surgery, Concubine Yan would take the initiative to explain many things to her. Things that are not said are generally things that one does not want to say.
But the atmosphere is just right today, so it doesn’t matter if I ask by the way. The biggest problem is that I won’t get an answer.
After hearing this, Concubine Yan glanced up at Toad Palace, then lowered her head to look at her daughter, and asked, "Why do you want to ask this?"
"Well... because I'm curious." Chitaki responded to her mother with a smile, "That girl gives me a very strange feeling, um... a little close, but also a little repulsive."
"Well..." Concubine Yan was not surprised by this. She ran her white palms through her daughter's hair and said softly, "It's okay, don't worry about it."
"That child is just an innocent person who was taken advantage of."
