Chapter 744 Shaobai 17
The atmosphere suddenly became heavy. Jiang Xinxin really didn't mean to blame anyone. She stared at the braised rabbit meat in the pot and saw that it was almost cooked. She quickly interrupted everyone's contemplation and said, "Okay, food is the first necessity of the people. Let's eat quickly and get on with our journey."
Baili Dongjun had something on his mind, but he also felt that today's meal was really good. Sikong Changfeng had already begun to imagine a bowl of white rice. "This braised pork is really delicious. If there is a bowl of rice, I can eat three bowls of it with just the soup!"
Ye Dingzhi wanted to liven up the atmosphere, and pretended to be contemptuous and said: "Look at you, a grown man, three bowls of rice are enough for you? A hero of my generation needs at least five bowls!"
Nangong Chunshui also followed suit: "Oh, I'm old and my stomach is not good, but if I use this braised pork sauce with white rice, I can eat at least ten bowls."
At this time, Jiang Xinxin certainly wouldn't spoil the fun by saying that the spices, snow salt, rock sugar and the like were rare, but she put herself on another level: "I'm different. I stay healthy and only eat until I'm 70% full, but I can ensure that every meal is this good."
Baili Dongjun finally got the idea, and quickly came to Jiang Xinxin and said flatteringly: "Yuan Xin, do you like Snow Moon City? I heard that Snow Moon City has four rare landscapes: wind, flowers, snow, and moon. It is also very rare. It is spring-like all year round and has abundant products. You will suffer a loss if you go to see it!"
Nangong Chunshui also understood what Baili Dongjun, the cheap little disciple, meant. He pushed him away and approached Jiang Xinxin, tempting her: "I know Xueyue City better than anyone else!"
"The Snow Moon City was originally founded by four sword immortals. Later, only one of them left a descendant, and he became the current lord of the Snow Moon City."
"And Xueyue City is divided into Upper Pass and Lower Pass. Lower Pass is where the common people live, and Upper Pass is where the City Lord's Mansion is located."
"There is a Dengtian Pavilion between the Upper Pass and the Lower Pass. Only after passing the Dengtian Pavilion can you truly enter the Upper Pass, which is the so-called inner city."
"How is it? Is this Snow Moon City interesting?"
Originally, Jiang Xinxin herself had no interest in the current Xueyue City, but she had said that before, and Sikong Changfeng was not yet the third city lord of Xueyue City in the future, so she wanted to do something, so she readily agreed: "It's not impossible for me to go to Xueyue City, but Sikong wants to help me compile a pharmacopoeia."
Then, Jiang Xinxin remembered that Sikong Changfeng was not the third city lord of Xueyue City, and he had not yet become a disciple. She quickly corrected herself: "I just made a slip of the tongue. The person who helped me compile the pharmacopoeia was not Sikong, but you, Nangong Chunshui."
Nangong Chunshui didn't think that Jiang Xinxin had really made a slip of the tongue just now, but remembering that Sikong Changfeng was a disciple of the Medicine King Xin Baicao, he just thought that she had thought of this and that's why she said that.
But compiling a pharmacopoeia is not an easy task. Not to mention the countless time and energy required to write a book, the manpower and material resources required to print it are unimaginable.
But anyone with a discerning eye knew that the pharmacopoeia proposed by Jiang Xinxin was not for her own convenience, nor was it to make things difficult for others. Nangong Chunshui thought about it and finally agreed: "Okay, I can help you compile a pharmacopoeia. However, if you want to make it into a book, it will probably take a lot of time, and it will take a lot of bamboo slips and silk just to compile it, so you have to be mentally prepared."
Sikong Changfeng, Baili Dongjun and Ye Dingzhi didn't dare to interrupt. Yue Yao, who heard what Jiang Xinxin said in secret, was even more speechless.
Jiang Xinxin just smiled and said, "It's okay. In fact, this is what I decided to do. It's just that Nangong, you just happened to be caught in the crossfire. There's no reason for me to leave the ready-made manpower unused."
"I won't make it difficult for you. You just need to compile all the medicinal herbs produced within a hundred miles of Xueyue City."
"However, the four seasonal forms of the medicinal materials must be described in detail, and the various names must be clearly marked. The shapes, colors, fragrances, flavors, and medicinal properties of the various medicinal parts must also be written out, as well as the basic usage and basic dosage, as well as the place of origin of the compatibility, etc."
"As for the rest, that's something I need to consider."
Seeing that Jiang Xinxin looked confident, Nangong Chunshui put away the advice that he had not yet spoken, "I just wanted to give you three meals a day, but I didn't expect to cause myself so much trouble. It seems that if you want to eat your food, you have to have extraordinary skills."
"But the size can't be too small, otherwise you'll have to eat wild vegetables along the way, and I'll be at a huge disadvantage!"
Jiang Xinxin directly stretched out her hand to high-five Nangong Chunshui: "Guarantee three meals a day. Breakfast should not be greasy, but there must be meat, vegetables and soup at noon and in the evening!"
Nangong Chunshui quickly reached out his hand and high-fived: "Deal!"
When going out, the most important thing is a mouthful of hot soup, and all the health-preserving methods known to everyone have always been inseparable from hot soup. Jiang Xinxin directly borrowed the originally prepared soup pot, secretly took out a slightly smaller pot, and personally caught four medium-sized fish. First, she marinated the fish with spices to remove the fishy smell, and then fried it slightly before adding water to stew it. When the soup boiled, she put some charcoal that had not been completely burned in the big pot, and then placed the pot in the big pot and covered it tightly.
A simple rice and fish soup is ready. Just wait until dinner time to take it out and season it with salt and pepper. By then, the fish meat will melt in the fish soup, and Nangong Chunshui will definitely be satisfied.
Facts have proved that martial arts masters would not specifically calculate the distance and where to stay when traveling, so everyone had to sleep in the wilderness at night. However, the fish soup poured out from the pot really gave everyone great satisfaction.
Baili Dongjun almost buried his handsome face in the bowl. After finishing a bowl of soup, he was willing to let out a sigh of relief, "This fish soup is really the best soup I have ever tasted!"
Sikong Changfeng poured another bowl of soup for Nangong Chunshui and flattered him, "If it weren't for Mr. Nangong's sacrifice, I'm afraid we would only have dry biscuits to eat now."
Nangong Chunshui really felt that the deal with Jiang Xinxin was worth it, and he had already begun to imagine learning a few tricks to please his lover Luo Shui.
Ye Dingzhi couldn't help but complain: "Master, you sent me, your disciple, to travel around the outer domain, why didn't you mention this?!"
"If you had prepared in advance, I would have suffered less!"
Everyone knew that Ye Dingzhi went outside the territory on the orders of his cheap master Jiang Xinxin to help the remnants of Beique find a suitable place to settle down. However, Jiang Xinxin did not consider Ye Dingzhi's food and accommodation along the way, so everyone lowered their heads to avoid being seen laughing.
Jiang Xinxin raised her head insincerely and said, "Oh, sometimes people are like this. They can't always take care of everything. I just forgot for a moment. But you can learn something from this trip to Xueyue City, so you don't have to mistreat yourself in the future."
Everyone was chatting and laughing. Nangong Chunshui, who had originally wanted to finish his work as soon as possible and rush to Xueyue City to express his feelings to his lover, was no longer in a hurry.
Jiang Xinxin also heard him talk about it and then realized that he actually wanted to cooperate with the Tang Sect and use the Tang Sect's poison to consume the internal force of the Dachun Gong in order to achieve the purpose of dispersing the power.
Jiang Xinxin herself can now be considered an alternative form of immortality, but she also understands Nangong Chunshui's choice.
"However, it is not appropriate for you to use highly toxic drugs to consume your internal energy. Poison is difficult to control and can easily damage your foundation. If you do this, you may have to spend less time with your lover."
How could Nangong Chunshui not know the danger?
He enjoyed it like a cake.
