I open a restaurant in Xiujie

There is an open space on the east side of Luozhen Tower Domain.

Adjacent to Yu's restaurant, and only a wall away from Xianyou Street, it is really a good place where every inch of land is expensive. Countless brokers have sharpened their heads to take this land, but the ownership of the land has never been known. One day, a row of small wooden buildings were built on the open space.

The wall is still built high, and the top of the wall is decorated with a sound-proof formation with spiritual stones. No one knows what is inside, and many people are waiting eagerly, waiting for the wall to be torn down, revealing a behind-the-scenes scene that stirs up Xianyou Street. Hotter big surprises—an auction house, or some other novelty—but brokers were disappointed when the truth came out.

Because a person risked being expelled from the tower, when he cast a spell to spy on the scenery inside the wall, he only saw a group of children studying hard in the wooden building.

"The three talents are heaven, earth and man; the three lights are the sun, moon and stars;

"Three cardinal principles, the righteousness of the immortals. Father and son are close, husband and wife are smooth..."

The children's voices were immature, and many of them obviously couldn't read fluently, and they spoke sparsely, but they were all very serious, and their little red faces were shrouded in light halos under the sun.It is obvious that there is a busy downtown area beyond the wall, but no one even takes a look at the voyeurs who are poking their heads over the high wall.

A simple earthen wall encloses a pure land in the downtown area.

The broker who was peeping was quickly overturned by Xuantu Tower. He fell from mid-air, grinned and patted his painful buttocks, and gave a "pooh" to the ground, jealous and sad: "What the hell."

Ruthless things!

If you want to open a school, you can't go anywhere, but why do you want to occupy such a good position?

And those sentences that the children recited...

The peeping broker thought about it in his heart, and vaguely felt that it was some good words, but he immediately left it behind.

What is the use of reading?

In this world, cultivation and becoming stronger is the right way.

……

In the small courtyard, after the children were able to stumble and read these few sentences, Yu Xiaotan held the book and asked with a smile, "Do you understand the meaning of 'three talents, heaven, earth and man'?"

The children shook their heads in bewilderment.

Yu Xiaotan asked again: "In your eyes, what is the relationship between heaven, earth and us?"

There was silence in the schoolhouse, and after a long time, a weak voice sounded from the corner: "Is it... related to kowtow?"

The eyes of the others immediately focused on the speaking child. It was a skinny boy who was trembling with nervousness when he saw this, and his face flushed.

Yu Xiaotan looked at him with encouraging eyes: "Why do you say that?"

"Because, because..." the boy stammered, "Because every year, people in the village kowtow to heaven and earth, hoping that next year there will be more millet in the field, no worms, and no floods in the river...they will do it Ceremony, kill chickens, kill ducks, and throw them into the river... I once picked up half of them, secretly..."

His voice became lower and lower, and finally he lowered his head in annoyance, his face gradually flushed with embarrassment: "But my mother won't let me eat, saying that it is something that Lord River God eats, and we are not worthy... She is almost hungry Dead, starving to death."

"Why not..."

The boy's helpless murmurs lingered in the silent wooden house, entwined with the low wind, hovering faintly in the air.

Yu Xiaotan's smile froze on his face.

He was not from a normal school, so teaching children to read is a matter of biting the bullet, and the question the boy asked at this moment was as sharp as a knife's edge, piercing his heart.

After a long silence, Yu Xiaotan said softly: "I can't say that stealing food is right. After all, every environment has rules that should be followed in the current state."

"But refusing to eat even if you starve to death is not the right way, because everyone has the right to try to live without affecting others."

The boy was dumbfounded, and stared at him with wide eyes.

That look seemed to be asking, should I eat it or not?

Yu Xiaotan let out a long sigh.

"There is no absolute right way in the world, only choices made under certain circumstances."

He tried to keep his tone as slow as possible, and met the children's ignorant eyes: "A person will make many choices in his life, and there will be invisible constraints behind each choice. People gradually grow up under such more and more constraints." got up."

"What I hope you can do is to be able to be worthy of the world and yourself after making a choice."

Yu Xiaotan curled up his fingers and tapped a few times on the thin book: "It's like worshiping the heaven and the earth and offering sacrifices to the god of the river. I want to tell you that the three talents, the heaven, the earth and the people, mean that people should be similar to or even equal to the heaven and the earth. The three together constitute the phenomenon of the world and the meaning of life.”

"The heaven and the earth are magnificent and vast, with the rotation of the stars and the changing of the seasons, but people also have the ability to transform and transform the world. First understand the world, and then use your own hands to change the world, instead of relying on so-called sacrifices and offerings, do nothing It will never work if you just sit and wait for God to take pity on you.”

The children listened quietly.

They are very serious. After all, Sansheng is lucky enough to have such a life of studying, reading, having food, and having a bed to sleep in. So even if they don't understand, they still look at Yu Xiaotan with piercing eyes, wishing to remember every word he said. Carve it into your head.

Seeing the serious faces of these little ones, Yu Xiaotan laughed: "Okay, it's normal if you don't understand now, don't worry."

"As long as you have a little understanding of the meaning of these words when you have learned all the knowledge and graduated from the school, that's enough."

After all, it is the essence of governing the world that has been summed up by generations after thousands of years of talking. Yu Xiaotan did not expect these children to fully learn it.

He hopes to plant a seed in the hearts of these people.

One day, the general situation will change, and these seeds may find a suitable hotbed, which may bring a warm spring to Qixia.

……

The morning class was over, and the children walked out of the wooden house one after another to rest in the small yard.

There are several swings and several slides built on the lawn. They were built by Yu Xiaotan with blueprints and asked people in Tsing Yi to build them. They are very popular.

Yu Xiaotan went back to the restaurant by himself and started preparing the lunch.

Huandan has already processed the ingredients. At this time, there are a bucket of chopped potatoes soaked in water, a bucket of chopped chicken pieces, some soaked black mushrooms and fungus, and Dozens of washed and marinated pig's trotters.

Bai Junda was entertaining guests at the restaurant in the morning, but his mind was all on the school. Seeing Yu Xiaotan coming back to make lunch, he hurried over and rubbed his hands: "What are you having for lunch... Potato stewed chicken, braised pig's trotters?"

"You're half right."

Yu Xiaotan poured the chicken into hot water and blanched the blood to remove the foam. The brightly colored raw chicken quickly faded to a light white color with a hint of rouge-like red, making people salivate just by looking at it.

Bai Junda looked at it hotly, picked up a chopstick and tried to poke the pig's trotter in the basin, but was lightly beaten by Yu Xiaotan: "Don't move around, this is not an ordinary pig's trotter."

Bai Junda gulped down: "That's it?"

"Silver moves the lin hog," Yu Xiaotan peeled off the skin of the pig's trotters, and showed Bai Junda the layer of tiny white scales that look like silver snakes, "One bite can break your front teeth, you have to deal with it properly .”

This is also one of the mysterious beasts that Yu Xiaotan knew in Xuanxianzong. Its body shape is similar to that of ordinary pigs, but it is covered with bright silver scales like wafers. It is digested and absorbed by the body, which can greatly improve the strength of the body.

Looking at the pig's trotters drooling for a while, Bai Junda looked at the black mushroom beside him: "I don't think I've seen this before..."

"Of course you haven't seen it before. It's You Luo Sheng Mushroom, which only grows in the abyss of the North Cliff and nourishes the soul."

Yu Xiaotan poured hot oil into the pot, sprinkled chopped green onion, shredded ginger, Chinese prickly ash and a small amount of chili pepper, the unique aroma of stir-frying burst out in an instant, and the open fire jumped up, leaping into a golden arc.

Bai Junda bared his teeth: "Then the fungus..."

Yu Xiaotan poured the chicken into the pot and stir-fried, and said casually, "The fungus is the fungus that grows normally."

Just as Bai Junda breathed a sigh of relief, he heard him say again: "But Qiongqing found the wood for growing fungus for me, and it has incorporated some of its own blood and Dao principles. Eating it should increase your affinity for the Dao Law."

Bai Junda: "!!!"

"No, Yu Xiaotan," Bai Junda was astonished, "Isn't the cost of your meal too high?"

Potatoes that lift the bones, all kinds of meat, and even the side dishes are top-notch. If it is placed on a table in the lobby, what is the price of a few hundred spirit stones?

"Is it expensive?"

Yu Xiaotan turned his head slightly, thought for a moment, then shrugged: "I think it's okay."

Some things he hasn’t said yet, for example, the water added to the pot dissolved the panacea he exchanged from the system, and the soufflés prepared for the children as snacks also used the milk of the mysterious beast spirit sheep , These are the best things to nourish the meridians and temper the spiritual roots.

The real cost of the restaurant may only be known to Ji Chuchen, who is in charge of the accounts. After all, all this consumes only Yu Xiaotan's spiritual power. For him, materializing ingredients is also a form of cultivation.In addition, although Yu Xiaotan has not been able to realize the complete silver moving Lin hog, but it is trivial to realize a few pig's trotters.

Yu Xiaotan's fighting spirit is high now.

He wanted to know what kind of group of people could be created by exhausting all the resources at hand.

And now, seeing the stewed chicken with potatoes in the pot gradually stained with oil and exuding a mellow aroma, Yu Xiaotan's eyes sparkled, and he suddenly wanted to understand something.

Potatoes enhance root bones, sweet potatoes quickly increase spiritual power, Xuanming shrimp and colorful cloud fish enhance Dao perception, maple fruit improves luck, all of these together can undoubtedly quickly create a strong man.The same is true for the talismans that mortals can use, which provide solid protection for people during the growth period, ensuring that they can grow smoothly to the point where they can stand upright.

Perhaps this is the reason why the kitchen fairy invented all of this?

Yu Xiaotan couldn't help thinking that now he is the only one who can practice recipes and realize food.If one day he finds enough people who can embody ingredients like him, and spread these people all over Qixia, it means that potatoes can be spread to every corner of Qixia...

If all living beings can use this to improve their roots, then perhaps it is not impossible for the whole people to practice?
