Chapter 123: Master Xu, please read less novels.jpg
"Ah...thank you." Xu Yichi stared at the things on the ground and blinked. She didn't expect that Lu Shinian not only helped her unpack the boxes, but also took out all the things for her and arranged them into categories.
From this point of view, it is very clear whether the manufacturer has sent her the wrong or missed shipments, that is...
She still cared a lot about what the Taoist priest had just said.
What does “it’s him, my junior brother” mean? What did Taoist Priest Jiazi say in front of Taoist Priest Chen... Who is slandering her?
Xu Dazuo, who had turned his head slightly, frowned, then turned his head to look at the young man in Taoist robes in front of him and said, "Oh, Taoist Master Jiazi."
Lu Shinian raised his eyebrows in response: "Hmm?"
"Did you run into Taoist Master Chen when you went back to get the claw hammer? I just heard what the Taoist master who remembers the names of dishes said... Did you say in front of Taoist Master Chen that I praised his cooking?"
The little girl tilted her head and asked directly. After listening, Lu Shinian stared into her eyes for a few seconds, then smiled and nodded his chin lightly: "Yes, I told you."
"? You are such a thick-browed and big-eyed guy..."
"But I did that to make my master happy." The young man calmly interrupted Xu Dazao's words that were about to come out as "casual and elegant", his face still showing his unchanging calmness.
"Master Xu, think about it, I came here today on the orders of my master to see if there is anything I can help you with. Then I met my master on the way back from getting the hammer." Lu Shinian curved his eyes and said something half true and half false.
"In this case, Master will definitely ask me if I have ever been to your place. After asking this, he will definitely ask you if you know that he and Senior Yang Yan'an are going to hold a welcoming banquet for you and others. What is your reaction after you know about this?"
"You said, in this situation, can I directly tell Master, 'Master Xu doesn't trust your cooking skills, why don't you and Senior Yang stop cooking'?"
Lu Shinian curled the corners of his lips and with just a few words kicked the conflict back into Xu Yichi's arms.
The little girl got anxious when she heard that, and hurriedly grabbed the young man's sleeve and said, "You definitely can't tell me that!!"
"If you really say that, Taoist Chen will definitely be sad. And I remember that Taoist Chen seems to be over 80 years old this year - if I make such an old man sad over such a small matter, then wouldn't I be a sinner!"
"Yes, so I can only say that Master Xu is looking forward to tomorrow's welcoming banquet, and also looking forward to him cooking for us." Lu Shinian said in a gentle but confident voice, "Who would have thought that Master hasn't been praised for so long... He took my words to please him seriously."
"Well, he originally wanted to show you a little bit of his skills, but now he's obviously ready to show you the big ones." At this point, the young man couldn't help but sighed in a fake way, "I'm sorry, Master Xu."
"I said the wrong thing by mistake... and I accidentally got you into trouble."
"No, no, no, how can you say you said something wrong? You were clearly trying to please Taoist Chen." Xu Yichi, who had been planning to have a good fight with Lu Shinian, suddenly lost his temper. "After all, this matter should be dealt with..."
"But now that things have come to this, there is no point in dwelling on this—"
"For now, let's think of a way to survive the dark dishes of the two ancestors, Taoist Master Chen and Senior Peak!"
——She doesn’t want to lose her taste buds after tomorrow night!
Xu Dazhao was groaning with a sad face, and after a while her eyes rolled, and a devilish idea suddenly came to her mind.
"Master Jiazi." Lu Shinian leaned forward and tilted his head to indicate that he was listening.
"Do you have a method that can make people lose their sense of taste temporarily?" The little girl's eyes sparkled, "Like what's said in the novel... For example, do you have some elixir or talisman that can make people lose their sense of taste on the spot, or do you have some acupuncture points that can make people lose their sense of taste temporarily?"
"..." The smile on the face of the young man in Taoist robe, who had been planning to listen carefully to what Xu Dazao had to say, suddenly froze.
"...Master Xu, I suggest that you read less novels if you have nothing to do." Lu Shinian smiled but his face was not smiling. He thought about the nature of the girl's work and added decisively, "...It's best to play less games."
——He is so stupid, really.
He shouldn't expect anything good to come out of this otaku's mouth!
"Ah~~" Xu Yichi's face was full of loss, and he looked as if he had just suffered a devastating blow.
However, after being rejected, Master Xu did not immediately give up the idea of finding a way to temporarily block his sense of taste. Instead, he muttered unwillingly and asked again: "Master Jiazi, are you sure there is really no similar method?"
"If you don't have any elixirs or talismans...then you can just find some real medicinal herbs!"
"…Really not." Lu Shinian had a blank expression on his face. "If you really want to avoid this by blocking your sense of taste, then maybe you can go to the dentist and ask if they are willing to give you an injection of anesthetic on your tongue."
"But after this injection... In addition to losing your sense of taste, I think you won't be able to speak clearly."
——When you inject anesthetics into the tongue, the entire tongue becomes numb... There is no acupuncture method in the world that can accurately block the sense of taste!
"Or you can try chewing coptis root or ghost peppers... making your tongue bitter or spicy, which might help a little. But if you do this, it seems like you will suffer even more, right?"
——After all, the food his master and Senior Yang cooked was just unpalatable at best.
But chewing weird things like Coptis chinensis and ghost pepper with nothing in your mouth is really not something that people should eat.
Lu Shinian thought with a chill as he untied his sleeves without leaving any trace.
Xu Yichi's face wrinkled completely when he heard the words "Coptis chinensis" and "Devil Pepper": "That's not necessary."
"But if we don't think of a solution..." Master Xu said reluctantly, "Then are we just going to accept our fate and wait for the ultimate torture from Senior Peak and Taoist Chen tomorrow?"
"It seems that this is the only way for now." Lu Shinian shrugged, "But didn't my senior sister say that you can choose to eat a few bites at the table first... After this game is over, I will take a few benefactors down the mountain to find a delicious midnight snack."
"——I remember there is a kebab shop on the old town street at the foot of the mountain that tastes pretty good. Would you like to try it tomorrow night?"
"Grilled skewers! This is fine!" Xu Yichi's eyes lit up, "Then Taoist Clamp, tomorrow night after the party, let's secretly go have a barbecue without Taoist Chen's knowledge - this is a deal!"
() The clamp is strangely black
