"Okay! Then I'll tell you straight out!"

Since both of them had made their point so clearly, Li Heng stopped wasting time.

"I have a small matter here, and I would like to ask you two for help."

Dayong and Erhu looked at each other and saw a hint of excitement in each other's eyes.

If they could make friends with Li Heng by doing a small favor, even if they didn't get any reward, it would be a win for them.

What's more, Li Heng is not such a stingy person, he will definitely not let them help in vain.

The two did not speak, but just nodded at Li Heng, indicating that he should continue.

"It's not a complicated thing. I made something and I need someone to help look after it tonight."

As Li Heng spoke, he took the two of them to the room where the bean paste was stored.

"See that water jar? It contains the condiments I just made. Your job is to..."

Next, Li Heng roughly explained what the two of them needed to do.

"Don't worry, I won't let you work for nothing. For dinner tonight, you two can order whatever you want. As long as we have the ingredients, I guarantee you will be satisfied."

After explaining the task, he also told the two about the reward.

"In addition, I will give you a midnight snack, and you can choose the dishes. How about it? Consider it?"

Feeling that dinner alone was not enough, Li Heng added another one.

"Is this true?"

Dayong raised his voice and asked back excitedly.

Because the conditions proposed by Li Heng far exceeded his expectations.

"Of course! This peak master never tells lies!"

Li Heng assured the two in shock, and added in his mind: "Except for the two little ones!"

"In that case, we two brothers agree to help Master Li Feng!"

For monks like them, not sleeping for one night is nothing at all.

In the past, in order to practice, I would meditate for several days without eating or sleeping. So just one night is no problem at all.

Dayong even began to think that Li Heng was giving him some benefits by letting him get two meals for free.

"Very good, then I would like to thank you both first!"

Li Heng smiled, obviously satisfied with the result.

"Since you have agreed to help, let me tell you some details that you need to pay attention to."

After the three of them came near the water tank, Li Heng instructed them on some details.

"First of all, just don't touch the fireball above. Also, before stirring each time, move the water tank away and wait until the temperature inside drops to room temperature before you start..."

"Master Li Feng, please speak slower."

Dayong suddenly interrupted Li Heng's speech. He turned around and found Dayong holding paper and pen, writing and drawing beside him.

It turned out that Dayong was worried about making mistakes, so he wrote down all the precautions mentioned by Li Heng, so as to ensure that nothing would go wrong.

"You two are going to have to work hard tonight! Now follow me to the kitchen!"

After saying that, Li Heng led the two of them out of the room and walked towards the kitchen.

"Hehe, it's not hard. We should also thank Master Li Feng for giving us this opportunity to feast on delicious food!"

Erhu smiled innocently and waved his hands repeatedly. Although Li Heng felt that he was being polite, what he said was indeed the truth.

"What do you want to eat? Have you two decided?"

After arriving at the kitchen, Li Heng asked the two of them.

The two people who entered the kitchen for the first time felt an inexplicable excitement in their hearts. There were not many disciples who could enter the kitchen, and now these two were to be added to the list.

As soon as the two stepped into the door, they began to look around. In fact, these facilities in the kitchen can be seen from outside.

Now they are just looking at it again from a different angle, and there is nothing new about it.

But the two of them just wanted this feeling, so that when they go back tomorrow, they can brag about it in front of their brothers.

Even Li Heng himself didn't know how this rule of not allowing disciples to enter and leave the kitchen at will was formed.

Maybe Jiang Mei added it for him, or maybe it was an established rule that these disciples came up with themselves?

So much so that now, entering the kitchen seems to have become something that people feel very honored about.

Unless Li Heng invited them, they would not take the initiative to enter the kitchen.

"I want to eat noodles with sauce."

After watching for a while, Erhu blurted out without thinking. When Dayong wanted to stop him, it was too late.

It seems that this guy has been thinking about the last time he ate noodles, or rather, he is "still brooding over it"?

I still remember that morning, the two of them didn't get to taste even a bite of fried sauce until the end of breakfast time.

The worst thing was that on their way back, the two were beaten up by other disciples because of their arrogance.

Since that day, Li Heng never made noodles with gravy again. As time went by, this seemed to have become an obsession for Erhu.

"Pfft~"

After hearing the last half of Erhu's sentence, Li Heng couldn't help but burst out laughing on the spot.

"No, Erhu! I've given you the chance, don't you want to eat something more delicious?"

After laughing twice, Li Heng stopped, patted Erhu on the shoulder, and advised him earnestly.

"I just want to eat noodles with gravy, and I want the same gravy as last time."

Erhu shook his head stubbornly and rejected Li Heng's kindness.

"I'm sorry! Master Li Feng! My brother is a bit stubborn, please don't mind!"

Dayong pulled Erhu's arm and told him not to speak for the time being.

Dayong felt speechless about the stubborn Erhu, but there was nothing he could do about him.

"Oh! There's nothing to be sorry about. Since I've already agreed, if Erhu wants to eat it, I'll just cook it for him."

Li Heng didn't care about Erhu's choice, he just wanted to fulfill his promise.

"What do you want to eat, Dayong? Tell me. I promise you will enjoy it this time."

After Erhu's choice was made, it was Dayong's turn next.

"Hey, I want to eat what the Peak Master made before, what's it called 'Kou Rou'?"

Dayong is not as stubborn as Erhu. With the opportunity in front of him, he naturally wants to eat again the dish he thinks is the most delicious.

"Pork with pickled mustard greens?"

Li Heng asked back that this request was relatively normal.

Because 'Braised Pork with Dried Pickled Vegetables' has been widely praised since it was first introduced, and even Li Heng himself likes to eat it.

"Yes, yes! That's it."

The last time he ate this dish, Dayong got three slices of meat and two chopsticks of pickled mustard greens.

But he can still remember the taste of the dish until now, which is enough to show how much he likes this dish.

"Not bad, you have good taste. Let's eat it tonight!"

Li Heng put his arm on Dayong's shoulders, seemingly very satisfied with his choice.

"Do you have any other requests? Tell me all at once!"

"Hey, you asked me to say this, so I won't be polite!"

Dayong licked his lips and already had an idea in mind.

"Hurry up! I'm the one asking you to do something, and I haven't been polite to you, so you don't have to be polite to me either!"

Li Heng half-jokingly spoke to Dayong while taking out the ingredients.
