Fragrance is good for purifying the heart

Chapter 154 Different
"Master, who would want my heart?" As soon as he returned to Fengnan Hall, Gardenia couldn't help but ask Beimian, "Then Wang Jitong also said that I absorbed the inheritance of the ancient secret method, but this has nothing to do with taking it away. What does my heart matter?”

Beimian frowned. He thought for a long time but didn't answer, but Gardenia suddenly revealed another message, "Then Wang Jitong actually knew that I was a Taoist without dirt, saying that someone told him."

Beimian's eyebrows turned, and he immediately guessed it.He has not mentioned to too many people the fact that Gardenia is Wu Gu Taoist. Even the other two heads of Taixu Mountain, he has not revealed the slightest bit, let alone the other preachers of Taixu Mountain. The monk...

For example, it was impossible for him to know about Wang Jitong's master, Master Xuande Yun, so he would naturally not tell Wang Jitong that Gardenia was a Taoist without dirt.But apart from Gardenia, that person was the only one who knew about this.

Thinking that if that person really leaked Gardenia's secrets to low-level monks like Wang Jitong on purpose and ruined his painstaking plan, he suddenly felt a wave of uncontrollable killing intent in his heart.

Facing Gardenia's question, he suppressed his true feelings and suspicions. After a while, he sighed and stared at Gardenia with a trace of concern in his eyes, "Gardenia, Regarding the fact that you are a pure Taoist body that is rare to see in a thousand years, I have never said much to you..."

"But... if you want to know, I can tell you," his tone became a little heavier, "because you are a Wushu Taoist body, so your cultivation must be much faster than ordinary people. If you can If you concentrate on your practice, you can get twice the result with half the effort. As long as you practice well, given time, you will become something great. Maybe..."

He turned his eyes slightly, avoiding Gardenia's puzzled eyes, and continued: "Being a teacher is just a guess. You have also been jealous and coveted by some people because of this."

When Gardenia heard this, her doubts became even greater, "Then even so, what's the point of wanting my heart? I keep the secret method passed down from ancient times firmly in my mind, but not in my heart. That Why did the person behind Wang Jitong specify that he wanted to take my heart?"

Beimian turned his head and glanced at her, stretched out a palm to touch her forehead, and sighed deeply: "There are all kinds of people in the world, and we can't know what others are thinking. What happened today, you can't know either." Don’t think too much, just concentrate on your cultivation and don’t listen to other people’s nonsense.”

In order to make Gardenia no longer suspicious, and to conceal his true thoughts, just now, he secretly cast a layer of tricks on Gardenia, just so that she could stop questioning her.Otherwise, even he himself can't explain clearly, and he may never find a suitable reason to excuse himself.

After all, his apprentice is very shrewd, young and mature, and always calm in dealing with things. It is not easy for ordinary excuses to deceive her aura eyes.

After using the trick, he found an excuse to leave, and he was glad in his heart that he had not taught her the secret of the trick, otherwise, the trick he had just used would have been easily defeated by her. Found.

On the third day after returning to Warm Heart Hall, Nangong Wenxiu came to Gardenia and told Gardenia a piece of news about Wang Jitong: after Wang Jitong died, the body was taken back by the people of Wangjia Town and made into a puppet, but due to other reasons The puppets in the film have souls or souls, but Wang Jitong died of Beimian's "soul destruction". The puppet he was made into has no soul.

"In other words, even if he becomes a puppet, he can only act based on instinct and is not easy to control?" Gardenia raised her head and looked at Nangong Wenxiu.

Nangong Wenxiu bit a finger, tilted his head and thought for a while, then nodded solemnly, "That should be it. Wangjiazhen has always used special spells drawn with cinnabar to control the souls of puppets to make them The body also obeys orders, but Wang Jitong has no soul, so maybe it's a little different."

At the end, she clasped her hands together and put them on her chest, and kept chanting "Bodhisattva's blessing": "This time, fortunately, Gardenia was poisoned by Xiaosha Yang Dan, and it only takes about ten days to rest and recover." , I really have the blessing of the Bodhisattva, the blessing of the Bodhisattva..." After recuperating in the Warm Heart Hall for nearly ten days, Gardenia was obviously feeling better today. She did her exercises and adjusted her breathing, and found that the spiritual power in her body was abundant again, and she wanted to cultivate herself. Also restored.

Thinking about how much care she had received from her master Bei Mian, senior brother Ni Anzhi and Nangong Wenxiu during this period, Gardenia always felt that she should do something to express her gratitude.

After thinking for a long time, he finally made a plan and sent a paper crane message letter to Bei Mian, Ni Anzhi and Nangong Wenxiu respectively.

I followed her up early in the morning and went to the small kitchen in Taixu Mountain. Using the ingredients I bought on hand, I made a dish of steamed pumpkin, yam and red dates, a dish of stewed beef brisket with tomatoes, a dish of steamed lotus root balls with lilies, a dish of stir-fried snow peas and carrot slices...

There were four dishes in total, but she put a lot of effort into making each dish delicate and attentive.When she cooks, she pays great attention to the color, flavor and flavor. Take this stir-fried snow pea and carrot slices as an example, she takes great pains to:

First chop some garlic into mince to make minced garlic, season with a millet pepper, and boil some scallion oil; then cut off the heads and tails of the snow peas, tear off the fascia, and cut the carrot slices into diamond-shaped slices.

Then add water to the pot and boil, blanch the carrot slices and snow peas, and add a little oil and salt to brighten the color of the dish. Remove and drain.

Finally, heat the oil in the pot, add the minced garlic and millet pepper and sauté until fragrant, then add the snow peas and carrot slices, finally stir-fry and add a little salt and scallion oil.When the pot is in the pot, pour a little water starch on it and stir-fry evenly...

Although it is just a simple vegetarian dish, it took three cups of tea to prepare. Looking at the crispy snow peas with soft green clothes and orange-red carrot slices, even Gardenia herself couldn't help it. Produced appetite.

She knew that her master Bei Mian and her senior brother Ni Anzhi had been practicing for a long time and had long been accustomed to living without food. So she tried her best to cook these four dishes to bring out the original fragrance of the ingredients, and she also paid attention to the freshness and deliciousness of the dishes. Her cooking skills , enough to be unforgettable.

When all four dishes were brought to her table in Xiaozhulou, Ni Anzhi and Nangong Wenxiu appeared together in Xiaozhulou.

Nangong Wenxiu pulled up a wooden chair and sat down, staring at the four dishes made by Gardenia and the fragrant rice. She couldn't help but bite a finger and praised, "Gardenia's cooking skills are really good." Okay, I can smell the aroma of rice from a long way away. Right, Senior Brother Ni, don’t just sit there in such a daze, hurry up and sit down!”

While saying hello, she pulled a bamboo chair for Ni Anzhi and placed it next to her. She also reached out and patted the chair. After doing this overly intimate gesture, she blushed again and hurriedly lowered her head. I didn't dare to look at Ni Anzhi's expression.
