The Heroes of Gulong: Great Chefs from Past to Present

Chapter 478: The Most Important Thing in Life Is to Please Yourself

The waiter felt a little disgusted when he saw a gangster approaching with a horse.

But seeing that the other person's clothes were neither new nor old, and were clean and crisp, and his tone showed that he was quite understanding of Shui Yunjian, he also smiled and explained in detail.

"There are too many people in the martial arts world recently. Many guests in Shuiyunjian will chop and stab as soon as they meet. It's really difficult to deal with."

"The Dragon King is so annoyed that he has issued an order that no more people with weapons will be received in the next few months. Please forgive me."

After hearing this explanation, Bai Yujing was surprised and asked again immediately.

"I heard that the Sky Dragon King lives in Anqing, but he is in Kaifeng now?"

After hearing this, the waiter felt that he had said too much, and shook his head and laughed again.

"Of course not, it's just that there was a fight between the people of Jianghu in Shuiyun. If it was a fight of ordinary skills, the guards could handle it."

"But fights between top masters must be handled by the masters of the headquarters. It's fine if it happens less frequently, but if it happens too frequently, the Dragon King will issue this order."

Bai Yujing didn't pay attention to the loopholes in the waiter's words. He just showed a look of disappointment on his face and a melancholy tone.

"I thought I could see the Dragon King, but I didn't expect to miss him. What a shame, what a shame."

Facing this, the waiter smiled and responded skillfully: "This is a matter of fate. May I ask if you would like to deposit your weapon?"

When Bai Yujing heard this, he shook his head slightly with a joking tone.

"Swordsman? There's a saying that goes, 'The sword is as long as the man is alive; if the sword dies, the man dies."

Bai Yujing's words were serious, but his attitude was frivolous. The waiter didn't want to go into details, so he just nodded and smiled.

"I understand. I'll say this on behalf of the store, and welcome you back next time."

Bai Yujing also had a good impression of this waiter. Although he was of low status, he was neither humble nor arrogant.

Nodding and smiling, Bai Yujing led the horse away.

Bai Xiaolou entered the pass from the northwest, and Li Chaofeng lived in the southeast.

If the two were to fight, the best place would be the dividing line between north and south, and the intersection of east and west.

The top of Mount Huashan is a great place.

Kaifeng is the largest city near Mount Huashan.

When Bai Yujing arrived in Kaifeng, he naturally found out the approximate location of the battle between the two.

But no one knows exactly which mountain it is on.

Bai Xiaolou is the leader of a cult. Once he shows up, he will be attacked by everyone.

Li Chaofeng is known as the Sky Demon Dragon. Although the famous and upright sects dare not provoke him, they will not go along with him either.

The fight between the two demons is a popular sight in the martial arts world.

But the two demons definitely don't want any outsiders to be present during their duel so that they can take advantage of the situation.

You have to find it yourself.

Walking slowly along the way, Bai Yujing heard the sounds of singing birds and dancing swallows.

Looking up, I saw another luxurious restaurant.

Shuiyunjian is a restaurant famous for its delicious food, but singing and dancing are not its strong point.

Bai Yujing looked at the source of the singing and dancing, his eyes narrowed, and then he led his horse away.

When he reached the door, Bai Yujing also saw two lines of poetry by the sword immortal.

My traces are in Yuntai Pavilion, but my heart follows Tianma's chariot.

Nodding with satisfaction, sure enough.
Wherever there is water and clouds, there must be Yuntai Pavilion.

In Shuiyunjian, food is the most delicious food; in Yuntai Pavilion, singing is the most enjoyable thing.

Everyone knows that Shuiyunjian is owned by the Shenlong Gang, but few people know that Yuntai Pavilion, which has been competing with Shuiyunjian for many years, is also one of them.

The two restaurants were close to each other, yet they competed with each other, and Li Chaofeng didn't mind the trouble of letting their respective names spread.

Yuntai Pavilion and Shuiyunjian have always used the same guard team. Even without Li Chaofeng's reputation, not many people dare to cause trouble.

The rules in Shuiyunjian are very strict. If you don’t follow them, you will be thrown out directly.

But Yuntai Pavilion doesn't have many rules. Even if someone makes trouble, the masters will stop them and then respectfully ask them to leave.

It's about making money, so be polite and don't be shabby.

Bai Yujing asked the servant at the door to lead the horse, and he entered Yuntai Pavilion with a sword in hand.

Looking around, the first floor was full of guests, all drunk.

Sometimes people sang poems, sometimes people wrote essays.

On the front of the second floor, there is a large stage with countless young women.

Sometimes they sang softly, sometimes they chanted poems together.

Listening to all kinds of new poems and old songs, Bai Yujing sighed in his heart.

Although Yuntai Pavilion is nice, it is not as quiet as Shuiyunjian.

More importantly, the ingredients used in Shuiyunjian are always the most precious and fresh.

Apart from the similar recipes, Yuntai Pavilion does not use fresh ingredients from other places; all ingredients are local.

Although the taste is not much different, it is still inferior to Shui Yunjian.

Looking around, Bai Yujing narrowed his eyes slightly, and called a servant over, asking, "Are there any private rooms on the second and third floors?"

Yuntai Pavilion is a three-story building. The front of the second floor is a singing stage, and opposite the stage are private rooms.

Although the private room is not quiet enough, it is more suitable for being alone than the lobby on the first floor.

However, the attendant shook his head slightly and spoke apologetically.

"Please forgive me, the private rooms for the next half month have been booked."

"Hey"

Hearing this, Bai Yujing sighed, turned his head to look above the stage, and spoke again.

"Then arrange a seat for me in the Accord."

The servant was a little hesitant as he was asking about the private room just now and now he was running to the elegant pavilion.

"This"

When we say "Ya" in Ya Ge, we actually mean it is right above the stage, a place where you can only listen to the songs but not watch the dances.

In a restaurant like Yuntai Pavilion, which relies on beautiful women singing and dancing as its gimmick, it is a place worse than the lobby.

The guest in front of him was dressed decently and holding a sword. He didn't look like the kind of person who would save a little seat fee to go to the Yago to listen to free music.

But upon closer inspection, I found that the guest's scabbard was very old and the boots on his feet had not been changed for many years.

Seems to be all show and no substance
There was a hint of contempt in the servant's eyes. He nodded quickly and stretched out his hand with a smile on his face.

"Guest, please come this way."

Bai Yujing didn't care about the servants' contemptuous looks. He went to Yage just because he saw someone.

Following the attendant to the third floor, Bai Yujing also entered the elegant pavilion.

There were also groups of diners having meals in the Accord.

But you can’t avoid the noise here, and you can’t see the beautiful women.

This is a place where people who are short of money but like to pretend to be rich come.

Yuntai Pavilion is as famous as Shuiyunjian, so the consumption is naturally expensive.

Bai Yujing glanced at everyone's faces, walked straight to a tall guest, and asked with a smile.

"You came to the restaurant but didn't drink alcohol, just tea. Isn't your behavior a bit strange?"

The tall guest was dressed in gray, which made him look extremely dull and ordinary compared to Bai Yujing's bright clothes.

But as the other party raised his eyes, Bai Yujing kept smiling, but also slightly gazed.

His face was cold, his eyes were like swords, and his eyebrows were like knives.

Although he had no weapons in his hands, he felt as if his whole body was under the blade.

Once he made the slightest movement, he would be targeted by Qian Feng.

Li Chaofeng looked at the man in white in front of him and reminded him coldly.

“There’s a lot of space here.”

Bai Yujing laughed, "Drinking alone is not as joyful as drinking with others."

Li Chaofeng said coldly: "You already know that I don't drink. Even if you want to drink with me, you should go find someone who drinks."

Bai Yujing wiped his nose casually and smiled with satisfaction.

"It's okay to drink tea, the tea in front of you smells good."

Looking at Bai Yujing's smile, Li Chaofeng thought for a moment, pointed to the seat opposite, and said in a cold voice.

"Since you want to drink tea, please sit down."

After getting the consent, Bai Yujing put the sword in his hand forward and sat down opposite Li Chaofeng with a happy face.

When he looked down, he found that there was only a set of tea set and some dried fruit snacks on the table, but no Shuiyun delicacies. He sighed with a smile.

"Your life is really hard."

After saying this, Bai Yujing turned to look at the attendants around him and started ordering various dishes.

Shark's fin, duck feet with mushrooms, pigeon with coriander, colorful beef tenderloin.
Soon, he ordered seven or eight expensive dishes, and then ordered the most expensive wine in Yuntai Pavilion, which stunned the servants.

Li Chaofeng ignored Bai Yujing and waited until the other party had ordered the dishes. When the waiter was hesitating whether to ask the other party to pay the bill in advance, he spoke softly.

"This guest's bill is on me."

The attendant did not know Li Chaofeng, but he knew that the gray-clothed guest in front of him, even the owner of Yuntai Pavilion, was very respectful, and he also responded with a panicked look.

"Yes, the villain went down."

Li Chaofeng nodded slightly. As the attendants disappeared, Bai Yujing looked at Li Chaofeng with a smile and said jokingly.

"It seems that your life is not hard, you just like it."

Li Chaofeng looked at Bai Yujing and replied coldly.

"Others always get rid of the old and keep the new, but Baiyujing has old sheaths for his swords and old clothes and old boots."

"I think you also know that life is for yourself, not for others to see."

"I don't feel it's hardship. This kind of life is certainly not hardship."
