Daoist Liyue, I live in the Hall of Rebirth!

Young people like to eat exciting desserts, and this dish is completely satisfying, while older people begin to relive the youthful taste in it.

If Shen Ming saw this dish at the scene, he would be able to give a more accurate adjective - defeated dog cuisine.

Cuisine for defeated dogs, dishes for licking dogs, anyway, that's the kind of thing.

Cough cough, it may be too much to say this, after all, ice cream is also sweet and greasy, there is still a taste of love.

Compared with the previous semi-finished products, this dish has completely changed.

The ice, water and thunder three-color slime is completely mixed by Xiangling, and there is no distinction anymore. The ice cream balls displayed are milky white, no longer three triangles, but stacked one after another.

In order to reflect the golden color and precious concept, she thought hard and finally came up with a method she thought was good. She heated and dehydrated the raspberries, leaving a golden caramel liquid, and then drew them into bundles to make hair look like.

The golden strands of hair are as thick as a spider's silk, but they are condensed and condensed. They no longer flutter in the wind. They look very gorgeous and precious under the light, which makes people unbearable to eat.

This way the hair gets more and less, Xiangling took Hu Tao’s hair as a reference, and kept her double braids around the ice cream, but due to the limitations of the ice cream itself, it can’t be made too long, so it’s more like a ponytail .

Gold, double ponytails, the two elements of this defeated dog are all there.

Liyue people don't know about this stalk, but if Shen Ming is here, they might want to praise Xiangling severely.

This ice cream sundae looks very beautiful, and the golden hair swirls down smoothly, making people think of the hair of first love.

Bite lightly, and the cold taste goes straight to the back of the head, making people tremble. The crispy and numb appearance of the electric current passing by lasts for a long time, and the sourness hidden behind the ice cream follows.

Sweet at first, then sour, and then the sour feeling will slowly fill the mouth, mixing with the sweet and soft taste of the original ice cream.

This mixed feeling of sweetness and sourness is like a rejected person who can't get what he wants, but can only be sour alone in the corner.

An uncle ate the ice cream with tears in his eyes, then turned around and ordered three glasses of wine.

"Uncle, what's wrong with you?" A little loli asked curiously.

"It's nothing, I just remembered the lost youth."

After drinking a lot of wine, when I turned around, I found that there were quite a lot of people who looked like me. Instead, they had a common topic and spent a lot in Wanmintang.

There are also quite a few young people who went home silently after eating family dishes, and many of them just sighed and mixed with these sad uncles.

......

The lanterns of thousands of families gradually rise into the sky, and the sky lanterns are like sparks, floating in the night sky, moving with the wind, and converging into a river of sparks.

Gorgeous and brilliant, the Mingxiao Lantern seemed to come alive, stepping on its hooves and leaping into the air, running in the night sky.

Twisting, jumping, calling silently, the deer-like Mingxiao Lantern finally turned into a streamer, and turned into fireworks that went straight into the sky.

whoosh-

Snapped!

A round of fireworks shone in Hu Tao's eyes, and her mouth opened slightly.

It's not like she hasn't seen such a scene before, and she enjoyed it last year, but this year is different.

This year, she is with the person she likes, watching the lanterns and the gorgeous fireworks with the person she likes.

This is the moment to say goodbye to the old and welcome the new.

The place the two chose was a good place to watch the fireworks. The crowd was surging here, people looked at the sky lively, and many children showed excited expressions.

"Look, it's fireworks!"

The child shouted innocently and cutely, and his little hand tried hard to point to the sky.

"I always feel that a lot of things have happened this year." Hu Tao sighed, "But when I think about it carefully, it seems that the only thing that can leave a deep memory on me is that the two of us became lovers."

"It's an honor to occupy the few spaces in your heart." Shen Ming said in a low voice.

"What, where are the few spaces." Hu Tao smiled, then stretched her neck and kissed Shen Ming's face, "It's almost all of them."

"Almost all? What about the short ones?" Shen Ming smiled.

"Well, it's dad, it's mom, it's grandpa, it's Gushengtang, it's a friend, it's a guest, it's a stranger, it's an agreement, it's a duty..." Walnut counted little by little, and every time he counted one This made Shen Ming's heart skip a beat.

Almost all means that, except for a small part of the name of the dish, the rest is all my own.

Hu Tao continued to count, and Shen Ming moved closer, his foreheads touched, and his lips met.

As soon as the score was reached, Hu Tao stopped counting and leaned on Shen Ming's shoulder.

"In short, you just need to know that you have a high proportion in my heart!"

Walnut nodded in satisfaction, then closed his eyes amidst the noisy fireworks, enjoying the hustle and bustle of the festival.

"What about the new year?" Shen Ming put his arms around Hu Tao's shoulders and leaned against Hu Tao's head.

"It's a new year, let's be happy in the new year and fall in love happily." Hu Tao shrank back.

"Just dating?" Shen Ming raised his eyebrows.

"What else do you want to do?" Hu Tao was alert.

"Don't go any further?" Shen Ming tried to lure Hu Tao to speak up.

"For example?" Walnut hummed.

"For example... well, I mean, look, we have tried tongue kissing, should we try something deeper."

"Go deeper." Hu Tao pretended not to be clear, then raised her head and shook it slightly, "It depends on your performance."

There is a play!

Shen Ming's eyes lit up, "What performance, what do you think?!"

"I can't think of it yet, but in the new year, I will definitely think of it." Hu Tao snorted, and then said lazily.

"Will it be a little slow?" Shen Ming asked.

"So, it depends on your performance." Hu Tao said lazily, then raised her head, revealing her snow-white neck and collarbone.

"If you behave well, you can say anything. If you behave poorly... just wait to be a spiritual lover for a year."

"What if you perform very well every time?" Shen Ming's heart beats so fast, and so does Hu Tao's.

"Then... I'll ask you to hold a coming-of-age ceremony for me." Hu Tao closed her eyes, bit her lip, and said quietly, "You know what it means."

"Wow, I'm so excited when you say that."

Chapter 230 Three This year, first set a small goal, such as a coming-of-age ceremony

New year, new weather, a good day starts with getting up early.

Hu Tao regained her energy today, striding towards the Adventurer's Association energetically, and continued to sell the business of the Hall of Death.

Ever since being rejected by the head of the Adventurers Association, Hu Tao has realized that this will be a long tug of war.

But she will not be discouraged, and she is ready for a hard struggle. As long as the Adventurers Association does not let go, she will go to bother you every now and then until another failure or the arrival of the Qianyan Army.

This kind of scene has been going on again and again in Liyue, and it has almost become a characteristic landscape. The Adventurer's Association is helpless, and the Walnut side is indomitable.

Hu Tao has always believed that as long as he gnaws on the big customer of the Adventurers Association, the Hall of the Future will be famous all at once. If the aftermath of the adventurers circulating in the Liyue Adventurers Association can be directly contracted by the Hall of the Past, it will be An absolute milestone achievement.

This means that the business of Xiangshengtang itself has broken through the limitations of traditional channels. It proves that Hutao's own ideas and ideas are not wrong, and it also proves that the people and adventurers in Liyue at that time have been able to face death squarely and seriously consider the afterlife. Things.

Well, Hu Tao's idea is still at a stalemate, the Adventurers' Association has not let go, and the people of Liyue are still reluctant to talk about death. Her idea has not yet been realized.

Hu Tao knows that this is very difficult, but she is still doing it. This is the most successful breakthrough for Xiangshengtang to break through the limitations of traditional channels.

"Just wait, no matter how many years, as long as I persist, I will definitely succeed!"

However, in the general environment of culture and tradition, Shen Ming's opinion of Hu Tao's insistence would not have much effect, unless Liyueren's views on death had undergone drastic changes.

This kind of upheaval may be caused by natural disasters, or other cultural factors, so that everyone has a correct and relatively rational understanding of death.

But at this time, Liyue is still in a peaceful period, so don't think about the sudden upheaval. Although Shen Ming really wants to persuade Hu Tao not to do these useless efforts, but after thinking about it, forget it.

Shen Ming did not intend to stop Walnut, who was able to stick to his own thoughts and act for them, and remained unshakable for several years. This was a collision of ideas.

Maybe one day, the people of Liyue will be able to face death calmly and reach the ideal state that Hutao really wants.

Today is the first day after the Lantern Festival and the beginning of a new year.

The merchants removed the goods prepared for the Sea Lantern Festival one after another, and many of them planned to sell them quickly while the heat of the festival was still alive.

However, the once bustling Xiaoshi has gradually withdrawn. The staff of the Qianyan Army are already sorting out the later work. In the Mingxiao Lantern Square, the staff have also begun to prepare to demolish the buildings built during the Sea Lantern Festival and restore the old days. look like.

There are still many children who are still interested in the excitement of the Sea Lantern Festival. With the help of their parents, they made a few sky lanterns sporadically, and they rose to the sky full of expectations.

Now that the popularity of the Sea Lantern Festival is gradually fading, people withdraw from the festive atmosphere and start to rethink their lives.

At this time, the members of the Qianyan Army who had no vacation during the Sea Lantern Festival finally had a short vacation to reunite with their families.

Although they have missed the most solemn and lively season, they can finally go home and have a look and chat for comfort.

On this day, Shen Ming held a few moras in his hand, and was playing with Xing Qiu and the others.

Speaking of which, Chongyun's approach is somewhat similar to Shen Ming's, but there is almost no overlap in focus. This pure-yang boy has a set of theories about catching ghosts, but he really dabbles in divination. many.

Both of them were very curious about Shen Ming's divination principles, but Shen Ming said a lot, and the two of them didn't understand much, they just listened to it with a half-knowledge.

But this didn't stop the interest of the two of them, so the three of them simply played in the tavern, put three Mora in a bowl, buckled them up and guessed pros and cons, it was not much different from dice.

This morning Shen Ming originally planned to go to the snack street to buy breakfast and then go back. Hu Tao should be back from the Adventurer's Association around noon, so he should have a good time in the afternoon.

But what I didn't expect was that before I got to the place, I bumped into Xingqiu and Chongyun, who had finished their work to relieve their boredom. They hadn't seen each other for a few days, and they were very happy after meeting Shen Ming.

Every time Shen Ming took the initiative to invite the two of them, something exciting happened, and the two of them basically regarded Shen Ming as a close friend.

The two of them took Shen Ming to sit in the tavern together, and the hospitality was hard to shake, which led to the current situation.

Playing a game with Xing Qiu Chongyun, Shen Ming didn't take it seriously, he didn't even count, and only played with the two of them relying on the spiritual intuition cultivated through many times of divination.

Just like this, Shen Ming still wins more than loses.

Would you like to eat early, where to eat or not, Shen Ming simply settled down and played with Xingqiu and Chongyun.

But it didn't take long before Shen Ming said goodbye with a helpless smile amidst the two people's voices of persuasion.

"I still have things to do, so I won't accompany you."

Heh, Hu Tao is coming back soon, and going back to spend time with my girlfriend is no better than being with you.

----

The Sea Lantern Festival is over, and people immersed in the festive atmosphere bid farewell to the festive season with emotion or reluctance, and returned to the atmosphere of work.

The adventurers packed their bags one after another, set off again, and looted all the commissions from the Adventurers Association.

Today's Walnut didn't sell any business from the Adventurer's Association. In fact, she went back before noon.

With a feeling of uneasiness, Hu Tao pushed open the door of his home's Pastoral Hall.

"Shen Ming?"

Walnut yelled habitually.

Huh?not here?

She thought that she understood Shen Ming's routine and life patterns, so she should have returned after breakfast at this time.

"Did you go out for a walk?"

Hu Tao muttered suspiciously, and hung the coat on the wall casually.

The door opened with a click, and suddenly a big face appeared in front of Hu Tao.

"Welcome back." Shen Ming said with a smile as he kept shaking his palms.

Hu Tao stepped back a little, and saw Shen Ming's appearance clearly.

Originally, when I opened the door and didn't see Shen Ming, I felt a little uncomfortable, but I didn't expect to be behind the door.

Suddenly she noticed the dust on Shen Ming's shoes, and it seemed that she didn't even have time to change her clothes.

"You just came back?"

"That's right, I know you'll probably come back early today, so I hurriedly put down other things and came back."

"How is it, how am I? I came back so quickly just to say welcome back."

The corners of Walnut's mouth couldn't help but rise, but he held it back quickly, crossing his arms around his chest, "Isn't it good, it's a new year, and you're working so hard on the first day?"

"Then, why don't you show yourself well? This year I set myself a goal that must be accomplished." Shen Ming put his arms around Hu Tao's waist.

As for what the goal of this year is, both of them are like mirrors in their hearts.
