Chapter 157 Huashan is never short of wisdom

In the backyard of Huashan Yuquan Courtyard, Yue Buqun, Ning Zhongze, and Yue Lingshan sat together to eat.

After returning from Hengshan County, relying on the gift from Lao Liu, Yue Buqun not only accepted five young apprentices under the age of ten, but also hired a cook from Weinan County to come up the mountain to cook.

Therefore, the lives of the couple have made a qualitative leap. For example, today's meal, although there are only three dishes, braised black carp, boiled tofu, and sour fried lotus root, is very delicious.

Especially for the braised black carp, the chef raises the black carp in warm fresh water two days in advance, removes the fishy smell and mud, then slaughters and drains the blood, and goes through 32 processes including carving and pickling before it can be served.

The whole dish is bright red in color, salty, fresh and slightly spicy, the meat is tender and smooth, fat but not greasy, and the meat is delicious. It is a rare delicacy.

Thanks to this dish, Lao Yue and Yue Lingshan can finish three bowls of rice.

Ning Zhongze, on the other hand, had a special liking for the sour fried lotus root and finished the dish by himself.

Yue Buqun felt a little emotional. He had been the head of Huashan for so many years, but only this year did he live like a head.

Especially after the landlords and gentry at the foot of the mountain learned that his nephew was an editor in the Hanlin Academy, their attitude became quite polite.

The return gift from Lao Liu is almost spent.
Thinking of this, Yue Buqun put down his bowl and chopsticks and said calmly: "Junior sister, I received a message from Alliance Leader Zuo yesterday. Junior Brother Ou hopes that we can go to Jiangxi to help him. I think that we are all members of the Five Mountains Alliance and should help each other. Therefore, I plan to take my disciples there tomorrow."

Yue Lingshan's eyes lit up after hearing this, and she immediately agreed, "Dad, I want to go too."

Ning Zhongze also nodded and said, "Brother, it's up to you to decide, but Lingming, Lingyue, and Lingsong are still young and not suitable for long journeys."

"So, I plan to take only Lao Denuo, Liang Fa and the other twelve people with me."

Yue Buqun thought for a moment and continued, "With Chong'er, Dayou, and Dai Zi in Huashan, it shouldn't be a problem."

Yue Buqun has figured it out these days. Since the Five Mountains Sword Sect was founded, there has only been one monster like Ou Zanghua. Linghu Chong is not as good-looking, not as smart, and not as worry-free as him.
Although he is not as good as others in every aspect, Chong'er is a level stronger than Zuo Ting!

It should be said that among the new generation of the Five Mountains Sword Sect, Ou Zanghua is the first to be discontinued, and Linghu Chong is the second to be discontinued.

Thinking of this, Yue Buqun rekindled hope for his eldest disciple. As long as Ou Zanghua's first place was more valuable, Linghu Chong's reputation would also rise.

Therefore, Lao Yue decided to continue training Linghu Chong.

Only this time, he will cultivate Linghu Chong's sense of responsibility and leadership.

Now that he and Ning Zhongze have both left, Linghu Chong has the final say on Huashan. I hope that when he comes back one day, he will see a prosperous Huashan!

At this moment, Linghu Chong had been waiting on the Cliff of Regret for two days and three nights before he saw Yue Lingshan coming up again. He had a lot to say, but with Lu Dayou beside him, he couldn't say it.

However, seeing the little junior sister smiling sweetly, Linghu Chong was also very happy.

After the meal, Lu Dayou understood Linghu Chong's intention and said, "Big Brother, Little Sister, it's been a while since we last met. Please talk for a while. I'll take the lunch basket downstairs first."

Yue Lingshan smiled and said, "Six Monkeys, do you want to escape? Come together and go together."

As he said that, he stood up and prepared to go down the mountain with Lu Dayou.

Linghu Chong immediately stood up and said, "Junior Sister, I have something to tell you."

Yue Lingshan called Lu Dayou over cheerfully and said, "Well, Senior Brother has something to say, you, Sixth Monkey, stand up too and listen to Senior Brother's instructions."

Linghu Chong shook his head and said, "I'm not teaching you a lesson, your 'Green Water Sword'..."

Yue Lingshan rushed to answer, "I told mother about it. When I was practicing the 19th form of the Jade Maiden Sword, I accidentally dropped the sword into the valley and never found it again. I cried for a while, but mother didn't scold me. Instead, she comforted me and said she would find a good sword for me next time. This matter is over, let's not talk about it anymore!"

But the more she took it lightly, the more uneasy Linghu Chong became.

He said, "My punishment is over. After I get down the cliff, I will go to the rivers and lakes to find a good sword to return to you."

Yue Lingshan smiled and said: "We are brothers and sisters, why do we always remember a sword? Besides, I did drop the sword into the valley by myself, so I can only blame myself for not learning the skills well enough, who else can I blame?" "Oh, by the way, Senior Brother, I will go down the mountain with Daddy and Mommy tomorrow. Daddy said that after they leave, Senior Brother will have the final say in Huashan Sect!"

Linghu Chong was stunned and asked in surprise, "Where is Master going? Can't I go with you?"

"We went to Jiangxi. Senior Brother Ou and Senior Uncle Zuo personally sent a message to invite Dad to go."

Yue Lingshan smiled brightly, "Big Brother, you are still facing the wall as punishment! How can you go? And this time, Daddy asked Lu Houer and Xiao Daizi to stay on the mountain. There are also five naughty monkeys, Lingming, Lingyue, Lingsong, Lingjian and Lingqing. Big Brother needs to take care of them!"

After hearing this, Linghu Chong couldn't help but feel moved. His master still cared about him.

They chatted for a while, and then Lu Dayou shouted that he wanted to leave, so Yue Lingshan went down the cliff with him.

Linghu Chong stood at the edge of the cliff, staring blankly at the backs of the two people as they left. It was not until they turned around the valley and could no longer be seen that he realized that he had not told them about the mysterious man that night.

At this moment, Yue Lingshan's clear singing voice floated up from behind the valley, the melody was very light and smooth.

Linghu Chong grew up with her and had heard her sing countless times, but he had never heard this song before.

Yue Lingshan used to sing Shaanxi ditties with long ending notes that swayed leisurely in the valley, but this song was light and joyful, with a kind of southern gentleness.

Linghu Chong listened to the lyrics and vaguely heard only a few words: "Ride the horse, horse, ride to that place, gaga."

But her pronunciation is strange, and eight out of ten times you can only hear the sound but not the meaning.

Linghu Chong couldn't help thinking, "When did Junior Sister learn this new song? It's so beautiful. Next time I come to the cliff, I'll ask her to sing it from the beginning."

Suddenly, her chest felt like it was hit hard by a hammer, and she suddenly realized: "This is a folk song from Huguang. Did Senior Brother Ou teach her?!"

On the other side, on the official road from Xinzheng County to Poyang County, Feng Buping, Tang Ying'e, Le Hou and five others were resting.

Feng Buping looked at Tang Ying'e and Le Hou and found that they were intentionally sitting separately.

Even Cheng Buyou deliberately sat ten feet away from him.

After noticing his gaze, the three of them turned their heads away one by one, their shoulders trembling slightly.

"What are you laughing at?"

“We remembered happy things.”

Feng Buping looked at Cheng Buyou, "You also remembered the happy things?"

"Yeah"

With a "bang!", Feng Buping slammed the table and stood up, shouting, "You are going too far! I have tolerated you for a long time."

"Mr. Feng, calm down!"

Tang Ying'e quickly stood up and tried to comfort him, "We have been strictly trained. No matter how funny it is, we won't laugh."

"You're obviously the happiest one!"

Zong Buqi immediately stood up and comforted his brother, "Brother Feng, for the sake of the Sword Sect's cause, be patient, be patient!"

Feng Buping finally calmed down when he heard the words "Sword Sect's Great Cause".

How did he know that an official could have so many titles?
Everyone in the underworld has a nickname and a name. No one would report several nicknames at the same time.
