"Dad! Dad! Look! Braised pork! Braised pork!" Lv Xiucai, with a lion's head in his mouth, stared at the plate.
As soon as the plate of greasy braised pork was placed, six or seven pairs of chopsticks were used to pick it up. When the chopsticks were withdrawn, not even the pickled mustard greens underneath were left.
"Look at the way you eat like starving ghosts! Eat slowly. If you don't know, you might think that our Lv family is uneducated!"
"Dad, don't be so polite. We didn't eat such good food during the New Year. Look at the fat on your chopsticks. You eat no less than us." The youngest son's teasing earned him a chopstick on the head.
Seeing his brother being beaten, Mr. Lu swallowed the food in his mouth and began to help, "Dad, just let everyone eat. We suffered a lot last night in exchange for this meal."
As soon as these words came out, everyone who was wolfing down the food showed their relief after escaping death
Last night was really scary. The master and the monster were fighting below, and those who were performing on the stage were almost scared to pee their pants.
Then they all looked at the front of the house and looked at Li Huowang who was lost in thought at the sky.
Everyone's eyes couldn't help but bring a trace of awe. If it weren't for this master last night, I'm afraid they wouldn't be able to eat this meal today.
Although this little Taoist priest is not very old and has no hair on his mouth, he is really not an ordinary person.
However, when another servant brought the dishes up, their attention was immediately diverted.
"Hey! There's a chicken! Look! There's a roast chicken!" The pairs of chopsticks were like snakes, ready to move above the round table.
Just as the chopsticks were about to tear the chicken into pieces, an old pipe covered with glaze blocked the chicken's head. "Stop! Don't move this chicken! Wait for me to invite the Taoist priest to come and eat together."
"Dad, stop shouting. Taoist priests don't eat meat. Are you asking the Taoist priest to break his vow?"
"Bullshit! Monks don't eat meat! I'm telling you, if I come back and see that this chicken is missing a little skin, I'll show you how I'll deal with you!"
After Lu Zhuangyuan glared at his most restless youngest son, he wiped his greasy mouth with his hand, wiped it hard under the table, and turned to walk towards Li Huowang.
"Little Taoist priest, hehe, little Taoist priest?" Lu Zhuangyuan, with his wrinkled face, was so friendly.
"Little Taoist, you've been busy all night. Let's eat together. Look, the dishes served by the Hu family are all greasy and hard."
Li Huowang, who was in deep thought, turned around and looked at him. After thinking for a while, he asked hesitantly: "Master Lu, did you see those tablets fall down together? That scene should not be my illusion?"
"Oh, little Taoist, how would I know? I don't have your ability, so how dare I look at it randomly? I, an old man, sang on the stage with my eyes closed."
Li Huowang sighed softly. He recalled the words in his ears again. Although it was very soft, it was definitely correct. That was the voice of his master Dan Yangzi. Only he would call him kid in the two worlds.
Logically speaking, he should be very nervous now when he heard his master's voice again, but Li Huowang was confused because he didn't even trust himself.
"I am a psychopath, and I am seriously ill. If it is because I did not eat the black Tai Sui, my illness relapsed, and I have a little auditory hallucination, it is normal."
"But those tablets that suddenly fell down, and the God of Joy that suddenly appeared and disappeared... all of this cannot be explained. Could it be..."
Li Huowang thought of the strange changes in Dan Yangzi's body before his death, and his expression became ugly. "Could it be that he really... became an immortal?!"
"No! Dan Yangzi cannot become an immortal. His so-called immortality skills and the inner elixir he took are obviously made up by me. How can something made up at random help people become immortals? Otherwise, he is not an immortal at all!"
But if he is not an immortal, then what has he become now? Why is he pestering me? Li Huowang's face showed a trace of hideous irritation.
"Little Taoist? What are you thinking about? We are all family now. If you have any problems, please tell me."
Lv Zhuangyuan's words brought Li Huowang back to his senses. He took a deep breath and made up his mind, "No matter it's true or not, there are not many countermeasures I can do now. Let's go to the so-called Xijing City and find the Buddhist temple mentioned by Lu Zhuangyuan. If it's true, they may know something. I still know too little about everything in this world."
"Master Lu, it's nothing. I just remembered some trivial things. Let's go to the table to eat."
Hearing Li Huowang say this, Lu Zhuangyuan nodded happily, and the two turned around and walked towards the dining table in the house.
When he came to the table, the expression on Lu Zhuangyuan's face froze. He saw that on the table, except for the roast chicken, other dishes had been licked clean, so clean that he didn't need to wash the dishes.
"Ah~ It's so comfortable to eat! I guess the emperor would enjoy it this way." With his mouth full of oil, Lv Xiucai leaned back lazily on the stool and untied his belt.
Lv Zhuangyuan smiled awkwardly at Li Huowang. It was not easy to get angry in front of outsiders, so he could only hold the roast chicken in front of Li Huowang with both hands. "Little Taoist, this chicken is quite fat. I'm really sorry. I'm embarrassed."
Li Huowang smiled, picked up the chopsticks and pulled off a piece of chicken and stuffed it into his mouth. "It's okay, the chicken is also delicious."
Just after eating a few bites, a group of people walked through the corridor and walked into the house. The one walking in front was Lv Zhuangyuan's employer, Hu Jianghe.
"Not bad, not bad. The ancestors were very satisfied. The incense and candles on the table were eaten up. This is a good thing!" Hearing the other party praising him, Lu Zhuangyuan smiled and said modestly: "It should be, it should be, this is my job." "Master Lu, if you pass by here again in the future, you must come to our Hu family to have a cup of tea." Hu Jianghe said politely. As he spoke, a strong man next to Hu Qinghe came forward with a tray covered with red cloth. As soon as the red cloth was opened, ten silver ingots were neatly placed there. "Ten taels of silver as promised, keep it." "Oh, thank you for the reward, Master Hu! Master Hu, don't worry, as long as there is work in the future, as long as someone tells us, our Lu family will come as soon as possible no matter where we are." After Master Hu left, the Lu family surrounded the tray, looking at the ingots on the plate with salivating eyes. Just when Lv Xiucai was about to reach out to touch the biggest money he had ever seen in his life, he was knocked away by an old pipe.
Lv Zhuangyuan first took out four ingots from the tray and stuffed them into his pocket. He looked at the remaining six with strong reluctance in his eyes.
But in the end, he smiled again and came to Li Huowang who was eating with the silver.
"Hehe, come on, little Taoist, we agreed that you take six and I take four, this is your share."
