I didn't intend to be a Fairy
Chapter 709 I still remember that time (please vote for me)
The Taoist holds the stove while the girl lights the fire.
In the pot is a pot of luffa broth.
There was only an oil lamp on the stove, casting dim yellow light. Song You used the light to put pieces of meat into the pot, and small bubbles kept rising around the pot.
The meat coated with a layer of starch quickly turns a rose-red color after being cooked at high temperatures. The outer layer of starch begins to become translucent and translucent, giving you a smooth texture.
Luffa has just been introduced from other areas. It is an ingredient produced in summer and autumn. It does not take up any land to grow. You can climb up the tree by leaning on it. In addition to eating, the luffa pulp inside can also be used to wash dishes when it is dried. Bu, can be grown in many places in Yizhou.
Yesterday, I was wandering around Lingquan City and saw someone selling one. The price was very cheap. Song You bought one without even thinking about it.
Now it has been cut into small pieces, floating in the pot, exuding a delicate fragrance.
After laying down all the meat, the Taoist was not idle. After covering the pot, he picked up a few eggs, beat them in a bowl, added a spoonful of salt, and stirred quickly.
The chopsticks collided with the bowl, making a clinking sound.
Sanhua Empress's face was illuminated by the firelight, and she was raising her head high, staring at the Taoist's every move.
After the eggs were beaten, the broth in the pot was almost boiling. The Taoist opened the lid of the pot, and the steam immediately rose. The light of the oil lamp immediately became hazy, and the rising steam was filled with the delicious fragrance of loofah and broth. , blended perfectly.
Sanhua Empress stood up and stared into the pot.
The Taoist scooped up a little soup with a spatula, put it to his mouth and sucked the soup into his mouth without touching it.
It has a rich flavor and just the right amount of saltiness.
"..."
The Taoist leaned down slightly, stared into the pot, found the smallest piece of smooth meat, scooped it up with a spatula, and handed it to Empress Sanhua:
"In our hometown, people who work in the kitchen, especially children, have always had the right to eat the first bite of meat. If Sanhua Empress has merit, she will give it to Sanhua Empress to taste it first."
"!"
The girl stretched out her hand, carefully twisted the smooth flesh, blew on it quickly, and then stuffed it into her mouth.
"Bah, bah, bah..."
"tasty!"
Empress Sanhua looked serious and sat down again.
This piece of meat was the smallest and was cooked naturally. The other pieces of meat were larger, but had to be cooked a little longer. The Taoist waited for a while with a spatula before using a basin to scoop it up.
Sanhua Empress sat still, always paying attention to the fire in the stove, but she couldn't help turning her head everywhere to look at the stove room.
In the past twenty years, especially in the first half of the period, Taoists often cooked and she lit the fire. But except for when they were in Changjing and Yidu, where they had their own stoves, most of the time they built small temporary stoves in the wild mountains. , cooking in a small pot - it's not that it's bad, it's just like now, but it always feels different.
The sound of the Taoist washing the iron pot came to my ears.
Rustling.
There was not much water left in the pot, and it evaporated quickly under the fire. The sound also reached the girl's ears. After the iron pot was heated, the lard was poured in and melted quickly. Then the eggs were placed, and there was an obvious sound -
"laugh……"
Even these sounds are pleasant to the ear.
Add to that the crackle of the fire, the warmth coming from it, the aroma of the food ahead, and the sense of security coming from this place...
Sanhua Empress put another piece of firewood into the stove, then raised her head again and continued to stare at the Taoist and the pot. Her eyes flickered, and she felt that it would be good to continue like this.
The aroma wafted over again.
"Lower the fire."
"oh oh……"
Sanhua Empress finally came back to her senses, her eyes quickly regained consciousness, her face was still expressionless, but she pointed towards the stove, and the flames were suddenly suppressed.
Two quarters of an hour later, in the main room.
The oil lamp was moved here, illuminating an Eight Immortals table and casting several figures on the four walls.
There are several dishes on the table.
In the middle is a pot of loofah broth, a pot of fish with pickled vegetables, a plate of scrambled eggs with pickled tomatoes, a plate of cold preserved eggs, and a dish of stuffed snail meat. It is full of aroma and quite rich. It is used to bid farewell to twenty years. The travel journey is also used to commemorate the first day back to the Taoist temple.
Empress Sanhua held her royal small bowl, which was made of precious exquisite blue and white porcelain. Song You, Yanzi and Xiao Jianghan used ordinary thick bowls, and each of them scooped out a bowl of soup first.
"You worked hard today."
Song You served them soup and handed it to them.
Empress Sanhua was picking up a snail with her chopsticks. She held it in front of her eyes and carefully looked at the meat in the snail. She was surprised that such a method was still practiced. She also wondered whether the mouse was too thin because she saw that the Taoist used three fertilizers. The stuffing is seven thin, and when he usually uses minced meat for cooking, he also has a strict fat-to-thin ratio, which is very difficult to operate with mouse meat. Suddenly hearing the Taoist's voice, she immediately put away her thoughts and answered Said:
"You're welcome! What are you doing tomorrow?"
"Empress Sanhua will open the door tomorrow to welcome pilgrims. If anyone comes to offer incense and worship the gods, they must be properly entertained." Song You said, "Go down and repair the stables."
"Then what?"
"If you have time in the evening, you can burn the weeds in the fields to the left and right of the Taoist temple."
"And after that?"
"Then the land needs to be reclaimed. After autumn, when the people at the foot of the mountain have finished harvesting, we have to go down the mountain to harvest the grain left in the fields. I have to go to the city and find craftsmen to re-customize a few statues. We have to get back the bedding we ordered, and we have to buy some chicks to raise."
Empress Sanhua listened attentively and could not help but think of that scene in her mind.
I cleaned up the house today and the place has become very good, which makes Sanhua Empress very happy. If she can raise the fish in the small lake later, wait until the mountains are full of rabbits, and then plant fruits and vegetables on both sides of the Taoist temple. Grain, chickens are fed on the mountain, and eggs are constantly laid. That is not a fairy day. What is a fairy day?
"Is there any more? Is there any more?"
"That's all I can think of for now."
"That's it? It's so little!"
"You……"
Seeing her full of energy, Song You shook his head helplessly and said to her, "Let's eat first."
"!"
The girl didn't say a word, lowered her head and started eating fiercely.
It's a good day in Japan today. The dusk in the mountains always lasts longer than down the mountains. In the distance is the gorgeous glow. The night sky is full of flying bugs and bats flying back and forth. Above our heads are the little stars gradually emerging. Stars, the feeling of midsummer is at its peak at this time.
After finishing the meal, the Taoist went to the attic.
No one has come in for more than ten years, and there is not a trace of dust in the attic. Song You came here with an oil lamp, and spread out paper and pen on the desk that was unknown how many years ago. The Empress of Sanhua turned into a human form and was still grinding ink for him as she had done many years ago. Then he turned back into a cat and started sniffing around in the attic.
The windows are open, and the mountain breeze fills the building.
The Taoist lowered his head and pondered for a long time before writing the last article of his travelogue.
"At the end of summer in the tenth year of Da'an..."
Small words appeared on the paper.
During this period, the calico cat pretended to be parkour, jumped on the desk, tilted his head and glanced at the paper several times. But today he was busy with shopping, and cleaning up the Taoist temple room. No matter how energetic the cat was, he would Feeling tired, the fatigue after being highly excited was even more difficult to resist. Sanhua Empress ran and ran, but finally felt tired and slowly calmed down.
By the time the Taoist was halfway through writing, she was already lying in front of the desk without moving. She just opened her eyes and looked outside. She didn't know if she was looking at the glow, the stars, or the bats in the sky. She waited until the Taoist finished writing this last travel note. When she finished writing and put down the pen, she closed her eyes and fell asleep.
Song You could feel her breathing and see her abdomen rise and fall evenly.
The quiet look is unbearable to disturb.
Song You just looked at her like this for a long time.
But in fact, he knew what this little thing was thinking——
Although Sanhua Empress is a cat, she has always been very territorial. This is probably related to her origin, her childhood experience, and may also be related to the Cat Temple. During the twenty years she traveled around the world with him, she would be wary and uneasy every time she went to a strange place. Every time she stayed in a place for a long time, she would be reluctant to leave. In her heart, she actually preferred to have a fixed and stable place. A safe and familiar residence, instead of wandering around the world with him.
Now that it finally happened, she was naturally very excited.
Once you are excited, you will feel tired.
"..."
When Song You looked away, the ink on the paper had dried, and a refreshing fragrance was exuding.
Song You stood up carefully.
During this period, I don’t know if he noticed any movement, but the little thing even twisted a little, covered his eyes with his paws, and made a hum sound. It was really cute, but it scared him so much that he froze quickly. After a while, he continued to stand up and walked to Next to it, I took out several thick stacks of paper.
These are all the travel notes he has written over the past twenty years.
Unexpectedly, I have saved so much.
The bottom paper has turned yellow, and if he hadn't used his spiritual power to protect it, it would have become dry and brittle.
Only when I saw these thick stacks of paper and the earliest piece of yellowed paper could I realize that these twenty years were indeed not short at all.
The Taoist placed the latest one on top, but couldn't help but pick up the oldest one and examine it in the light of the lamp oil.
"In the autumn of the first year of Mingde, I traveled to Yizhou..."
In front of the Taoist's eyes appeared the young Taoist who had a rather cold temperament, and the innocent and ignorant cat who was not very familiar with him but tried to get closer to him and tried to make some contributions to the small team of one person and one cat. The calico cat, and the small courtyard in Yidu.
"At the beginning of February of the second year of Mingde, I traveled to Xuzhou County..."
The first thing that appeared in front of the Taoist's eyes was not the mountains and rivers of Xuzhou County, nor the Liujiang Assembly, nor the Zoujiao Temple and the old temple owner who wrote this travel note, but the man who jumped up on the table and raised his head to puzzle with him. The cat looked at him, asked him what it was, and looked closer at the paper.
She didn't understand the explanation. Even though she couldn't read, she still had to look closer, just to read. She also used her paws to pull his hand so as not to block her and make it difficult for him to write.
There are even traces of her scratching and half a cat's paw print on this piece of paper.
When he came back to his senses, the cat was still lying on the table, sleeping soundly.
"In the spring of the fourth year of Mingde, I traveled to Changjing...
"In the winter of the sixth year of Mingde period, in the Qingtong forest north of Yuezhou, no sacred bird was seen. I first need a letter from Master Heiyu...
"At the end of the seventh year of Mingde, Wu Nuxia and Wu Nuxia parted ways in Changjing...
"..."
Song You flipped through the pages bit by bit, and before he knew it, the stars were moving outside the window. The night was getting deeper and deeper, from the first half of the night to the second half of the night.
Looking at these words, the scene at that time seemed to emerge before his eyes, and the feelings at that time were also picked up again. The oil in the oil lamp did not decrease at all, and he seemed to have walked through the twenty years of experience all over again from beginning to end.
Almost at the same time, the cat also fell asleep.
It’s just that what the cat dreamed about was not the landscapes and stories of the past twenty years, but the time when these twenty years had just begun and had not yet begun——
In the small temple of another god, the god was dressed in colorful clothes and covered with divine light. She was a god with a majesty that a cat could not possess. He spoke in a deep voice, saying that he would take her down and deal with her according to the laws of heaven.
And she was just a cat, weak and powerless, so she had no choice but to huddle at the feet of the Taoist she had just met, entrusting her safety and trust to him, and trying her best to appear less helpless. .
Then the Taoist and the gods said that they should take her with them and teach her well.
The Taoist is very powerful.
The gods agreed.
After walking out of the temple, Cat was still nervous and followed him with small steps. He looked up and asked him:
"What is probation?"
The Taoist replied in a gentle and calm voice: "It is to influence you and bring about good changes in you."
"How does it affect it?"
"Slowly it affects."
"How has it changed?"
"If you talk too much, you'll be very thirsty on the road."
"How has it changed?"
"Change slowly."
"..."
Half asleep and half awake, Sanhua Empress was also surprised that she could still remember what she said so long ago.
A hint of fish belly white gradually appeared on the horizon.
The morning star shines brightly.
I don't know when the oil lamp went out, but the Taoist was still lying on the attic, turning his head to look at the sky outside the window, thinking about the past quietly.
