Chapter 278 Spiritual Chef Yan Siyi (4000 words, please subscribe)

Early next morning.

Ling Pengyun found a maid from Lingfu Mansion and asked her to lead the way out of Lingfu Mansion.

He often went around the Bailing Gate and finally came to a glorious palace. Behind the palace was a large cloud that could obscure other people's sight.

Even Ling Pengyun, who was in the middle stage of Foundation Establishment, could not rely on his spiritual sense to detect the situation in the large cloud.

And above the gate of the glorious hall, there is a plaque hanging, with the three characters "Lingzhi Hall" written on it.

"Senior Ling, this is Lingzhi Hall."

"As for the large cloud behind the Lingzhi Hall, it is a third-level low-grade illusion array, specially used to protect the Lingzhu Garden of my Bailing Sect. If I don't need to use the special token of my sect Lingzhi Hall, it can be regarded as foundation building. It is difficult for the Perfect Cultivator to break through the cloud and enter the Spiritual Plant Garden by relying on his own strength."

"And in the Lingzhu Garden, there are dozens of spiritual veins that our sect's golden elixir power has specially drawn to the Lingzhi Garden based on the formation."

"It is precisely because of those dozens of spiritual veins that there are thousands of spiritual fields in the spiritual plant garden."

"The spiritual plants planted in the Spiritual Planting Garden are also taken care of full-time by the spiritual planters in the Spiritual Planting Hall."

The maid who led Ling Pengyun was slightly aware of Ling Pengyun's doubts as he looked at the large clouds, and took the initiative to explain it to Ling Pengyun.

After hearing this, Ling Pengyun's doubts were dispelled.

Adhering to the way of life, Ling Pengyun also took out a first-level middle-grade Huangya Dan from the storage bag that was left during the Qi training period, handed it to the maid who led the way, and sent the person away.

There is no one guarding the outside of Lingzhi Hall, and you can come and go at will.

Ling Pengyun also stepped into Lingzhi Hall, walked to the counter of Lingzhi Hall, and found a Bailing Sect Qi Practitioner who was working at the counter, and told him that he wanted to find Yan Cang, the master of Lingzhi Hall. .

"Senior, Hall Master Yan is busy with his official duties. Senior, have you made peace with Hall Master Yan? If not, it will be difficult for me to find Hall Master Yan." Seeing Ling Pengyun's foundation-building pressure revealed, the qi-training handyman respectfully road.

When Ling Pengyun heard this, he also understood.

He waved his hand and patted the storage bag on his waist, took out a token with the word "Yan" engraved on it, and handed it to the handyman.

This token was given by Yan Cang when Ling Pengyun attended his nephew Wu Hong's 100-day banquet a few years ago.

The handyman reached out to take the token handed over by Ling Pengyun and looked at it carefully.

When he realized that the token contained Yan Cang's aura, he looked shocked.

The handyman's expression became more respectful. He handed the token to Ling Pengyun again and replied verbally.

"Senior, Hall Master Yan is currently taking care of the spiritual plants planted in the Ling Zhi Park. Although you know the hall master, we, Bai Ling Sect, also have rules. People who are not members of our Ling Zhi Hall are not allowed to enter the Ling Zhi Garden at will. , to prevent evil people from harming the spiritual plants planted by me at Bailingmen in the garden."

"I will type the communication talisman now to notify the hall master to come out of the garden. Senior, please wait here for a little longer."

After saying that, the person took out a communication talisman from the storage bag and punched it out.

Seeing this, Ling Pengyun nodded lightly and stood quietly aside.

I waited for about a hundred breaths.

Yan Cang, the master of Lingzhi Hall, turned into a breeze and quickly entered Lingzhi Hall from the outside world. He came to Ling Pengyun and said with a smile.

"Little friend Ling, I finally waited until you arrived."

"Hey, my little friend has stepped from the second level of foundation building to the middle stage of foundation building after not seeing each other for several years. It seems that you, little friend Ling, have had quite a chance in the past few years."

"Senior Yan, you are joking. I am able to achieve such a state because of my natal spirit implanted into the foundation, which has fed back a lot of spiritual power." Ling Pengyun explained.

"With my little friend's accomplishments in Lingzhi, my natal Lingzhi has entered the foundation building again. I think my Lingzhi has also reached the second level."

"Congratulations, little friend. Maybe, relying on the methods of the second-level spiritual planter, I will be able to improve another kind of spiritual rice soon." Yan Cang said with a smile.

"Improving spiritual rice requires opportunities. If there are not enough opportunities, it may be difficult to improve." Ling Pengyun said helplessly.

"This is true. Back then, I improved high-quality spiritual rice such as Yancang Lingdao. But now, dozens or nearly a hundred years have passed, and I have still stopped making progress in improving the spiritual rice. I have only improved two kinds of spiritual rice. It’s just good spiritual rice that won’t help me much.”

"I only have about ten years left in my life. I'm afraid that's all I've achieved in improving spiritual rice in this life." After hearing this, Yan Cang was suddenly touched and sighed.

Ling Pengyun had a discussion with Yan Cang for several days a few years ago. He knew Yan Cang's character to some extent and understood that he was not the kind of person who liked to show off.

At this time, Yan Cang's sigh, Ling Pengyun could also see that it was his true feelings.

Ling Pengyun couldn't help but feel envious of Yan Cang's talent in improving Ling Zhi.

In his entire life, he had only improved the good first-order low-grade Qiuyun spiritual rice, which was completely incomparable with Yan Cang's achievements in improving the spiritual rice.

"Senior, you are talking too much. You are still strong, Bailingmen has many spiritual objects, and there are many spiritual objects that can enhance longevity. Senior, you have enough opportunities to go further in improving spiritual rice." Ling Pengyun comforted. One sentence.

After hearing this, Yan Cang noticed that he had lost his composure, his expression returned to normal, and he asked.

"Young friend Ling, are you here to talk to me about Taoism?"

"Exactly, I wonder if senior can give me some pointers again." Ling Pengyun said with a smile.

A few years ago, his discussion with Yan Cang, a second-level high-ranking Ling Zhihu, made him benefit a lot from Ling Zhi.

This time he came to Bailingmen. Apart from the blind date, the other thing he wanted to do was to find Yan Cang and ask for advice from him again.

"You're welcome, little friend. I don't have any advice. It's just a mutual exchange. In the past few years, I have been looking forward to discussing things with you again."

"People come and go in Lingzhi Hall. It's not a good place for chatting. You are not from Bailing Sect, so you can't follow me to the quiet room of Lingzhi Hall. My friend, please go to my private house." Yan Cang said with a bit of joy.

Although the level of Yan Cang's spiritual plant is high, it is not comparable to Ling Pengyun in the spiritual plant field. However, Ling Pengyun is one of the few spiritual plant geniuses in Bailingmen who has improved high-quality spiritual rice.

Being able to discuss things with such geniuses will be of some help to Yan Cang in improving his spiritual rice in the future.

Yan Cang took the first step and led Ling Pengyun out of Lingzhi Hall. They walked along the path for about half a stick of incense, and the two finally entered a large courtyard.

The courtyard is very large, and there are four acres of first-class spiritual fields in the courtyard.

There is a three-story bamboo building behind the spiritual field, and there is a backyard behind the bamboo building.

However, what is grown in the four acres of spiritual fields in the front yard are not elixirs, but four kinds of elixirs: green jade cabbage, white jade radish, purple eggplant, and waxy fragrant corn.

Seeing this scene, Ling Pengyun couldn't help but show a hint of envy and muttered to himself.

"It's a pity that the number of spiritual fields in the family is not large. It needs to plant jade series of spiritual rice and elixirs that can be used to refine elixirs, and there is no spiritual chef to inherit it. Otherwise, if we can plant a few acres of spiritual vegetables and cook them with spiritual chefs, it would be great. It’s a blessing.”

Although the value of spiritual vegetables is similar to that of elixirs of the same level, elixirs can be refined into elixirs, and spiritual vegetables need to be cooked into spiritual food by a spiritual cook in order to maximize the benefits of the spiritual vegetables.

The Ling family has a weak foundation. It has only been established for more than two hundred years, and it has not yet collected the rare inheritance of spiritual chefs.

The spiritual food cooked by the spiritual chef is much better than the elixirs of the same level. It is completely comparable to the spiritual water of heaven and earth of the same level. It is a good choice for improving your cultivation.

However, due to the rare inheritance of spiritual chefs, the spiritual food in major restaurants on the market are generally extremely expensive. Even Ling Pengyun has never eaten spiritual food many times in his life.

Just when Ling Pengyun came back to his senses, the tip of his nose smelled a rather rich aroma of dishes mixed with a few hints of aura.

"The fragrance of spiritual food!" Ling Pengyun said with a bit of shock.

When Yan Cang heard this, he nodded lightly and said with a smile.

"It's the aroma of spiritual food. It seems that my friend is also a discerning person. It's dinner time now, and my friend is my distinguished guest. Let's have a casual meal with me and let's discuss the Tao together."

Without waiting for Ling Pengyun to respond, Yan Cang took the first step, bypassing the three-story bamboo building in the small courtyard and heading towards the backyard.

"Senior Yan has a good life. The foundation-building monks are already able to live without grains, but they still enjoy it so much." Ling Pengyun looked at Yan Cang's back with a slightly envious expression and said to himself.

Yan Cang took the initiative to invite him, so he naturally had no reason to refuse.

He also followed Yan Cang's pace and walked towards the backyard.

Just as Ling Pengyun stepped into the backyard, he saw in the open kitchen on the first floor of the Bamboo House, a pretty young female cultivator wearing a Bailingmen robe, standing in front of the kitchen stove, using the foundation-building Use spiritual fire and use a special secret method to cook a pot of jade cabbage on a first-level spiritual iron pot that has been forged with spiritual iron.

Ling Pengyun's eyes moved when he saw the special technique of the female cultivator.

"A spiritual chef who is in the realm of foundation building. Looking at this female cultivator's skills, I think she has a lot of attainments in the spiritual kitchen."

At the next moment, the female cultivator in the kitchen of the bamboo building also noticed Ling Pengyun who had been watching her. She glanced at Ling Pengyun.

Seeing that Ling Pengyun's face was unfamiliar, he had never seen it before. The Taoist robes that Ling Pengyun was wearing looked like those of other family Taoist robes in the outside world, embroidered with some special patterns that contained profound meanings.

In addition, the aura exuding from Ling Pengyun's body was strong enough to reach the middle stage of foundation building, and its vitality was not weak. The young female cultivator was secretly puzzled.

"This person is not from our Bailing Sect. It is rare that he has entered the middle stage of foundation building at such an age."

"Grandpa rarely brings people back for dinner. It seems that this person also has some friendship with grandpa."

Because she was cooking spiritual food, the female nun did not lose her mind too much. She quickly turned back, stopped looking, and continued to focus on cooking the dishes in the pot.

Ling Pengyun also came back to her senses because of the female cultivator's glance, and sat down with Yan Cang at the dining table in the backyard with two dishes and one soup.

"Little friend Ling, there aren't many dishes, so I hope you don't dislike it," Yan Cang said.

"Senior, you are joking. If I am not mistaken, the dishes and spiritual soup on this table are all based on the first-order high-grade spiritual food and the first-order high-grade spiritual food cooked by the fairy in the Zhulou kitchen. ”

"If these two dishes and one soup were placed in major restaurants outside, they would probably be worth hundreds of spiritual stones."

"This kind of meal is already considered a luxury. Thank you, senior, for allowing me to have this orally before it's too late. How could I dislike it?" Ling Pengyun said.

"My little friend, your mouth is quite sweet. I'm waiting for my granddaughter to finish cooking the last dish, which is three dishes and one soup. Then we can start the meal again. What do you think?"

When Yan Cang heard this, a smile appeared on his face, obviously he benefited from what Ling Pengyun said.

Ling Pengyun's expression changed slightly when he heard what Yan Cang said that the fairy cooking dishes in the kitchen was Yan Cang's granddaughter.

"Senior Yan's lineage is full of talented people. Judging from the level of his granddaughter's cooking of spiritual food, her future achievements will probably not be low."

He also thought that Yan Cang had specially hired someone to cook spiritual food for him.

After all, as the head of the Lingzhi Hall of Bailingmen, Yan Cang was considered the highest-level cultivator below Jindan Zhenren in Bailingmen, so it was not strange to specially hire a spiritual chef to make spiritual food.

Thinking back, Ling Pengyun said.

"That's natural. You have to wait for the cook to eat."

Yan Cang quite agreed with this, and he looked at Ling Pengyun more favorably.

The two chatted for a while, and Yan Cang's granddaughter, who was cooking spiritual food in the kitchen, also cooked the last dish and walked out of the kitchen with the last green jade cabbage.

"Grandpa, who is this fellow Taoist?" After Yan Cang's granddaughter put the last green jade cabbage on the dining table in the backyard, she looked at Ling Pengyun and asked.

"I forgot to introduce you. The person next to me is Ling Pengyun, the supreme elder of Lingxiao Ling Clan in Huaishui County, Jingzhou, in my Bailingmen territory."

"Ten years ago, this little friend Ling improved a kind of high-quality spiritual rice, which is famous in my Bailingmen territory. He is a well-deserved rising star in the field of spiritual plants in my Bailingmen territory."

"This time I brought little friend Ling home, and I planned to discuss the Dao with him."

After introducing Ling Pengyun to the young female cultivator, Yan Cang briefly introduced Ling Pengyun.

"Little friend Ling, this is my granddaughter named Yan Siyi. Although she did not inherit the spiritual plant that I am good at, she is also a spiritual chef. There are some differences between her and my spiritual plants. After all, she needs to use the spiritual vegetables grown by our spiritual plant husbands."

"Fairy Yan, I am sorry." Ling Pengyun bowed.

After listening to Ling Pengyun's introduction, Yan Siyi looked up to Ling Pengyun a little. "No wonder this person was brought home by my lonely grandfather."

Then, she smiled and bowed politely. "So it's Fellow Daoist Ling. I've heard Grandpa mention Fellow Daoist a lot in the past."

"Fairy, please don't make fun of me." Ling Pengyun didn't take this too seriously, and just said a simple smile.

Yan Cang on the side also began to smooth things over and said.

"Okay, Siyi, take a seat quickly, don't stand."

Yan Siyi nodded lightly and sat down at the table.

This little change did not affect the chat between Ling Pengyun and Yan Cang.

Yan Siyi was the only female cultivator at the table, and Ling Pengyun and the other person were chatting about spiritual plants, which she didn't understand, so she just listened quietly.

The meal was quickly finished, and Yan Cang and Ling Pengyun also entered a quiet room in the bamboo building in the courtyard and exchanged experiences on spiritual plants and improving spiritual rice.

Yan Siyi cleaned up the mess on the table.

It took more than ten days for Ling Pengyun and Yan Cang to end this discussion.

In the quiet room.

"Senior, I have benefited a lot from this discussion. If I can improve another kind of spiritual rice in the future, I will definitely thank you with a gift." Ling Pengyun thanked Yan Cang who was sitting cross-legged in front of him.

"No need to do that. I also gained some insights on improving spiritual rice from this discussion with you."

"Then this discussion ends here. I should go back to the spiritual plant park behind the spiritual plant hall to take care of the high-level spiritual plants. Otherwise, I may be blamed by the sect if I delay for too long."

Yan Cang was quite satisfied with what Ling Pengyun said and said with a smile.

Ling Pengyun saw Yan Cang was about to leave, hesitated for a moment, and spoke.

"Senior Yan, I came to you this time, in addition to discussing the Tao, I actually have another thing to ask for."

Yan Cang frowned slightly when he heard this.

If an ordinary person asked him, he would definitely ignore him and leave directly.

But Ling Pengyun improved a good spiritual rice at a young age. He can be regarded as a genius in the field of spiritual plants.

He also admired Ling Pengyun.

In addition, Ling Pengyun is the cousin of the daughter-in-law of Lingfu Zhenren Wu Tianer, one of the three Jindan Zhenren of Bailingmen. It is not bad for Ling Pengyun to owe a favor.
