Chapter 350 Banquet, Wei Zihao's whereabouts

Jiuli Village is bustling with activity at this time.

Everyone was looking forward to it when they learned that Lu Qing was going to invite the whole village to dinner and cook spiritual rice.

Most people in the village have visited the two acres of spiritual land behind Lu Qingzhong's courtyard in the middle of the mountain.

I know that the spiritual valley growing in those two acres of spiritual fields is growing very gratifyingly.

The heavy ears of rice produced by Naling Rice were the best-growing rice they had ever seen.

Therefore, everyone is very curious about the taste of rice with such good quality.

The Lu family's courtyard was now filled with tables and chairs, and each set of tables and chairs looked different.

Each family in the village moved them from their own homes and made them improvised.

This is how banquets are held in the countryside. Usually one family hosts the banquet, and every household contributes to help.

Lu Qing had an apron wrapped around her waist and was busy in front of the makeshift stove in the yard.

Since he was treating the guests today, he naturally had to cook in person.

For making such a big pot of rice, the kitchen at home is a bit limited, so he simply built a simple stove outside.

At this time, Lu Qing was busy cutting meat.

On the simple chopping board, the knife flashed, and large pieces of beef, mutton, and pork were quickly cut into chunks or thin slices by Lu Qing.

Swish, swish, swish...

There was a sway of the knife, Lu Qing's palm gently pressed and turned, and a piece of bright red beef turned into half a nice-looking beef slice.

Every piece of meat seemed to have been accurately measured with a ruler, and it was extremely even.

The people watching on the side looked straight.

Only then did he understand why Lu Qing refused when they wanted to help.

Even if they practice this sword skill for a lifetime, they still won't be able to master it.

Go up and help, I'm afraid it will only make things more difficult.

Ma Gu was also watching Lu Qing chopping vegetables.

However, unlike the villagers who were just watching the excitement, what he saw was the meaning of Lu Qing's sword skills.

As a strong swordsman who also understands the realm, Lu Qing's swordsmanship has already reached the point of perfection.

Even if he is just chopping vegetables with a kitchen knife, the meaning of the sword technique revealed in it is enough to make Ma Gu fascinated.

While everyone was watching Lu Qing chopping vegetables, there was another movement outside the yard.

Soon, Xiaotian brought a few men in and picked out many things.

"Lu Xiaolangjun, I brought the chicken, duck and fish you asked for." Xiaotian said respectfully.

"Okay, let's leave it there first." Lu Qing nodded.

"Then Mr. Lu Xiaolang, is there anything else you need to tell us?" Xiaotian asked.

"No more for now. By the way, Xiaotian, you guys will stay too and have a quick meal by the way."

"this……"

Seeing Xiaotian's hesitation, Ma Gu came from the side and tapped his head gently.

He glared and said, "I'll just stay if I ask you to, there's so much nonsense!"

This silly boy, does he know what a great opportunity it is to be able to stay for such a meal.

Ma Gu, who knew that spiritual rice was precious, felt a little resentful that iron could not become steel.

"I understand, Mr. Ma, then I will not disturb Mr. Lu Xiaolang."

Xiaotian never dared to disobey Ma Gu's words, so he immediately shrank his head and responded in a low voice.

Lu Qing smiled: "It's just a casual meal, don't be nervous."

While Xiao Tianxia was looking for a place, other villagers finally found jobs they could do.

Go forward and take down the chickens, ducks, fish and other things that Xiaotian brought over and slaughter them.

They couldn't help Lu Qing with chopping vegetables, but they were still competent at killing chickens and ducks.

With the concerted efforts of the villagers, it didn't take long before all the ingredients were almost ready.

Pots of slaughtered chickens, ducks and fish, as well as beef and mutton cut by Lu Qing, were placed there.

Before they even started cooking, the villagers started to salivate.

There is no way, Jiuli Village has always been poor, such big fish and meat are only available during the New Year and festivals, or when someone's family holds a banquet.

On weekdays, they rarely get it.

Lu Qing naturally knew that people in the village rarely had access to meat, so this time he specifically asked Xiaotian to help buy a large amount of meat.

Seeing that the preparation of ingredients has been completed.

Next, it’s time to cook.

Because there are so many people, Lu Qing will not cook such exquisite dishes this time, just big pot dishes.

However, he believes that with his ability and the various seasonings he has researched over the years.

Even if it is a big pot dish, it will not be unpalatable.

Soon, a large iron pot was set up, and after the firewood was heated enough, Lu Qing spooned a large piece of solidified lard into it.

There was a sting, the lard melted, and a scent of oil emerged.

After the oil was hot enough and the iron pan was thoroughly lubricated, Lu Qing put down another piece of sugar and stir-fried it until it turned brown.

Put down a large plate of pork belly cubes that had been blanched in advance.

There was a crackling sound, and under the high temperature, the rich aroma of meat soon filled the entire yard.

The surrounding villagers who were helping couldn't help but twitch their noses.

Especially those little brats, they can't help but drool.

I can't help it, the smell of this meat is too tempting.

Smelling such a strong aroma of meat, everyone is even more looking forward to today's banquet.

Lu Qing fried the meat until it was almost sugar-colored, then started to add water and various aniseed ingredients, and then let it simmer slowly.

And he took advantage of this time to set up another pot and start cooking other dishes.

Just when Lu Qing was distracted and multitasking, cooking several pots of food at the same time.

The Wei family courtyard was in a state of surprise.

"Ah Hai, what did you say, you found Zihao?"

Wei Xinghe looked at Manager Wei with surprise on his face.

Mrs. Wei was also so frightened that her body trembled.

"Uncle Hai, are you telling the truth? Have you found my brother?" Wei Zian was also very surprised.

More than two months ago, news came from Jeju.

It was said that Qingyun Jiange had provoked some enemies and was uprooted overnight.

Not only were all the disciples of the sect wiped out, but even the mountain gate was burned clean.

Only a few disciples who were outside were lucky enough to escape.

After receiving the news, the Wei family was naturally very anxious.

Because the eldest young master in the mansion, Wei Zihao, is a disciple of Qingyun Jiange.

Wei Xinghe immediately ordered to search for the whereabouts of Wei Zihao with all his strength. He wanted to see the person alive and the corpse after death.

However, more than two months later, they found no trace of Wei Zihao.

Even at Wei Shanhai and others, they all thought that Wei Zihao had died in the disaster at Qingyun Jiange.

Unexpectedly, Manager Wei brought news that Wei Zihao had been found.

"Yes, sir, madam, the spies we sent out saw the eldest young master in the state capital two days ago.

As soon as I received the news, I rushed over to inform you. "General Manager Wei said respectfully.

"Hao'er is in the state capital, so why doesn't he go home directly?" Wei Xinghe wondered.

"According to the report from the spies in the house, the eldest young master seems to be with several of his fellow disciples of Qingyun sword pavilion.

Moreover, their expressions were very panicked, as if they were avoiding and fearing something.

The spies didn't know why, and they didn't dare to show up at will to disturb the young master.

Just observe and protect him in the dark. "

"Hao'er is afraid of avoiding someone?" Wei Xinghe reacted immediately, "Yes, Qingyun Jiange was destroyed overnight.

Until now, no one knows who did it.

Haoer must know something, or maybe he is afraid of involving his family.

Then he didn't come back or contact his family, but hid in the state capital. "

Being able to quietly destroy a powerful sect like Qingyun Jiange overnight.

Those who do it must be extremely powerful forces or practitioners.

No matter which one it is, the Wei family cannot afford to offend him.

Perhaps it was out of this consideration that Wei Zihao kept hiding outside and did not escape back to the Wei family.

However, how could Wei Xinghe watch helplessly as his son was in danger without caring.

Immediately, he said that he would go to the state capital to bring Wei Zihao back.

"Dad, wait a minute!"

However, at this moment, Wei Zian stopped his father with words.

"This matter is of great importance. We should consult Dr. Lu Qing first before making any plans."

Although he was also concerned about his brother's safety, after listening to Uncle Hai's words, Wei Zian instinctively felt a hint of danger.

Wei Zian would not take his intuition lightly.

In the past few months, the original energy of the world in his body has been completely integrated into his body.

It caused his body to undergo radical changes.

Not only has his qualifications greatly increased, but his intuition has also become very keen.

So after he noticed the dangerous energy in the dark place, he immediately did not dare to be careless.

"Can I ask Mr. Lu Xiaolang..." Wei Xinghe hesitated, "But today Mr. Lu Xiaolang is going to entertain the villagers of Jiuli Village.

I'm afraid they are busy at this time. Wouldn't it be nice if we went to disturb them now? "

Wei Xinghe was in awe of Lu Qing.

When I see Lu Qing on weekdays, his attitude is quite reserved.

It is far less advanced than the relationship between Wei Zian and Lu Qing.

"Young doctor Lu Qing won't mind." Wei Zian said, "Dad, the Qingyun Sword Sect was one of the most powerful sects in Jeju, but it was destroyed overnight.

The murderer must be an extremely terrifying figure, more powerful than we can imagine.

Dad, you went to the state capital rashly. What if you accidentally expose your traces and are discovered by the murderer?

Therefore, this matter needs to be considered in the long term. It is best to ask Dr. Lu and Senior Chen for their opinions first.

Even if it doesn't work, you have to ask your ancestors for instructions first. "

Wei Zian analyzed his father bit by bit and persuaded him.

In Wei Zi'an's mind, the knowledge and strength of Lu Qing and the old doctor were extremely powerful.

Therefore, it is most appropriate to ask them for advice first.

However, seeing Wei Zian talking so eloquently.

Wei Xinghe and his wife, including Manager Wei, were stunned.

It seems a little unbelievable that what he just said was something that the squeamish and naive young master could say.

"Master, An'er is right, we should discuss this matter with Lu Xiaolangjun and others."

Mrs. Wei also said at this time.

"Okay, just listen to An'er, I was just impatient."

Wei Xinghe also realized that he was confused because he was really concerned just now, and An'er could not see clearly.

Thinking of this, he looked at his younger son with relief: "An'er, you have really grown up, and now you are more calm than dad when things happen."

Wei Zian blushed: "Thank you for the compliment, dad. I know that dad is only concerned about the safety of his eldest brother, that's why he behaves like this."

Seeing him like this, Wei Xinghe's face became even more relieved.

At the same time, I felt extremely happy.

When he agreed to let his youngest son follow Lu Qing and the others to go out for training, it was really one of the best choices he made in his life.

After Zi'an came back from the training in Zhongzhou, he was completely transformed.

Not only did his cultivation level increase greatly, but now he is already in the initial stage of the internal organs, and is not far from the stage of minor success. He can be regarded as one of the top masters in the mansion.

The most important thing is that his mind has become much more mature and stable, and he can completely stand on his own.

As for the words of dissuasion just now, if it were half a year ago, Zi'an would never have said it.

"Zi'an, you are right. We should consult with Lu Xiaolang and the others about this matter first.

However, Lu Xiaolang is hosting a banquet today, and we don't want to spoil his fun.

After the banquet, we will ask him for advice."

"But Dad, if this happens, my brother..." Wei Zi'an hesitated.

"More than two months have passed, there is no need to rush.

Since your brother chose to hide in the state capital, he obviously has estimated his own safety.

You were right before. If I rush to meet him, it might not be good.

Let's go. Young Master Lu is hosting a banquet today and has invited us. It's time to go."

When Wei Xinghe and others arrived at the Lu family, Lu Qing had almost finished cooking the dishes.

"Young Master Lu."

"Master Wei, you are here. Sit down first. The banquet will start soon.

Xiaoyan, take Master Wei and the others to the master." Lu Qing shouted.

Then Xiaoyan ran out of the house: "Aunt, let's go inside. Grandpa Chen and Grandpa Wei are inside."

"Is the old ancestor also here?"

Wei Xinghe was a little surprised.

Since Wei Shanhai received the immortal cultivation inheritance from Lu Qing, he rarely appeared at home.

He often disappeared without a trace. He either went to the small courtyard halfway up the mountain or went to an unknown place to cultivate immortality.

Even Wei Xinghe rarely saw him.

I didn't expect that he would have time to come to the banquet today.

But this was a good thing. Thinking of Wei Zihao's matter and the presence of the old ancestor, Wei Xinghe felt more at ease.

At least, after the banquet, he would not be unable to find the old ancestor.

When Wei Xinghe and others entered the house, Lu Qing also began to officially start the dishes.

He first opened the lid of the pot that had been stewing the meat.

Suddenly, an extremely rich meaty aroma emanated from the pot and quickly filled the entire yard.

"What a good smell!"

For a moment, everyone in the entire yard couldn't help sniffing.

All eyes were focused on Lu Qing.

Then they saw Lu Qing shovel out large bowls of red meat from the big iron pot, and then the villagers in charge of serving the dishes sent them to each table.

When the meat was placed on the table, it was trembling, very elastic, and full of oil.

Even Wei Xinghe, who was used to seeing delicious food and eating lavish meals, suddenly felt a little greedy when he saw it.
