Everyone looked at Jing Xuan's dish. To be precise, it was a basin of plain water. The container was also made of white and transparent taste crystals. However, there was a lotus core floating in the plain water. The lotus core, which originally represented purity, was constantly emitting traces of a faint black color. The soup did not have a trace of heat. What surprised everyone was the smell. It was a lonely and cold fragrance, like the white snow under the sun or the frost on the plum branches. That kind of floral fragrance was indescribable. It was a type of flower, but there were many types of flowers. In this lonely and cold fragrance, it was difficult to see the whole picture.
Wu Lai picked up the spoon and scooped a spoonful of soup beside the lotus heart. The soup was attached to the spoon, and the slight frost hit the spoon made of Taste Crystal. When the spoon was placed into the spoon, it spread like a frost lotus, which was extremely pleasing to the eye. Slowly, he put it into his mouth. The first taste was ice, very cold ice. When it entered his mouth, it pierced his tongue. However, this kind of coldness was not like the usual coldness that made him uncomfortable. Instead, it was an inexplicable stimulation accompanied by the fragrance of winter flowers. But even so, this soup was a little too … However, just when he thought of that, the temperature in his mouth melted the frost in the soup and the winter flowers turned into spring water.
Wu Lai was stunned. The green taste of spring sprouted. It was as if the frost on his tongue had melted and sprouted green sprouts. The faint sweetness was accompanied by a hint of bitterness. The bitterness was like the fragrance of the sprouts. As the temperature of the soup rose in his mouth, the sprouts turned into leaves. His tongue was like the wilderness. The wild and ever-changing fragrance of the wild flowers began to mature in his mouth.
Finally, the complex taste of fruits appeared. There were many flavors of fruits but they did not merge into one. It was as if a group of different fruits were strolling on his tongue, holding hands to celebrate the harvest of summer and autumn. It was slightly sweet, sour and fresh! It was wonderful. After that, the coolness spread again. It started to snow. They withered and died again. The coldness of the frost and snow was accompanied by a slight bitterness and sadness. However, there was an inexplicable sweetness in the bitterness. It made one feel that the existence of the frost and snow was the hope of spring. As the saying goes, a timely snow indicates a good harvest. Wonderful! Wonderful! The cycle of seasons! This spoonful of soup allowed one to taste the changes of time! Humans are constantly changing, and I am constantly trying to understand them. However, the real existence of nature is still changing according to its own rules. I am like a lotus heart floating in a pot of soup. I am just overthinking. I am so insignificant. I am so insignificant. He looked at Jing Xuan seriously, "Thank you, little master, for your guidance. This poor monk has benefited a lot …"
"Master, you must be joking. I was only able to understand a lot of things because of the guidance of another Holy Monk. Compared to him, I feel that I have been imitating others all my life. I was wrong from the very beginning." Jing Xuan put her palms together.
"Who is that Holy Monk?" Wu Lai felt that Jing Xuan's attainments in Zen were already above his own.
"I can't say. That Holy Monk will naturally guide you when you need it …" Jing Xuan's words annoyed Wu Lai. It would be great if I could have such a Holy Monk to guide me.
"I know what you are thinking. The Holy Monk also said that I have to walk my own path. He can't help me much. Although suppressing the precepts is something that Buddhists should do, he said that I don't even know why I should suppress the precepts. He said that I am just a Buddha who follows the crowd, not a Buddha who has transcended. I am just a water that goes with the flow. Without self, how can I achieve true happiness?" Jing Xuan's words made Wu Lai and his two senior and junior brothers silent for a long time. In the end, they bowed to Jing Xuan again, "Thank you for your guidance, Master Jing Xuan."
The three of them thought that the Holy Monk was just a title for all living beings. As for the Holy Monk, it was also Jing Xuan's title for all living beings. Hence, they looked at Jing Xuan with respect.
After tasting the soup, Lin Liang exclaimed, "Jing Xuan is indeed one of my favorite chefs. His dishes have never disappointed me. This time, I am even surprised by this bowl of soup. He really made the Four Seasons Pearl reincarnate. It's so perfect. Even compared to Brother Meng Gu, I think he is not inferior …"
After tasting the soup, Panty Uncle gave Jing Xuan a thumbs up, "Amazing …"
Jing Xuan looked at Panty Uncle and blushed, "I'm sorry, Master Panty. Compared to you, I'm still not as good as you. I know my limits."
Old Man Li praised, "Everyone has their own merits. Jing Xuan, you don't have to look down on yourself. However, compared to me … I definitely won't lose. "
Jing Xuan looked at Old Man Li who looked like a completely different person. She could feel the pressure from the Overlord of the Cooking World. The Overlord of the Five Blades, Qian Yidao. He was the man that Hundred Fragrance Taoist dared not say that he could win. However, he did not care. He walked to Old Man Wang, "Brother Wang, what do you think of my performance? Did I convey my feelings to you …"
Old Man Wang looked at the weird gazes of the people around him and the sigh of his wife. No, no, I … I … He gritted his teeth, "Yes!"
"That's good. It's good that you understand. This dish was also inspired by your encouragement in the garden last night. Also, Kun's tolerance is just like how you accept my feelings … " Jing Xuan's words made Old Man Wang's hands tremble. Why didn't I bring the kitchen knife and the pot with me … He took a deep breath and chose to remain silent. Today is not a good day to be angry.
Jing Xuan looked at Old Man Wang and nodded. You are indeed my best friend, my best friend. She thought of the best ways to express her friendship in this world. She reached out and patted Old Man Wang's butt. Old Man Wang's wife. Wang Xiaoli looked at Old Man Wang and lowered her head slightly. Wang Xiaoli asked her mother, "Mom, is it hard to be a gay wife …"
"I love him. Of course, I will accept everything from him. Jing Xuan is a nice person. She treats me very well too. If it comes to that, I can accept it. My daughter, even if your father is a multi-purpose plug, he is still your father …"
"I know, mom …"
Old Man Wang looked at Jing Xuan's mouth. I should have torn his mouth apart when we were enemies. He then returned to the kitchen quietly, "I still have something to cook. Let's add another dish …"
Old Man Li, Old Man Li, Ye Cang, Panty Uncle, and Naked Uncle were all whistling to welcome him. Old Man Wang clenched his teeth. These bad guys … Li Xiangfei quickly went over and held Old Man Wang's hand, "Master Wang, there's nothing between you and Master Jing Xuan. Don't think too much. Sister Mei doesn't mind either. All the best. Follow your heart …"
"Come, follow me to the kitchen. I can't tear their mouths apart but you can …" Old Man Wang carried Li Xiangfei to the kitchen.
"… …" Li Xiangfei struggled and looked at Old Man Wang, "Xiangfei! Let me teach you something special! How to make Peppa Pig's mouthwash tasty! In the food stalls, Peppa Pig's mouthwash is a very popular dish … "
