I am doing meritorious deeds in Liaozhai

Chapter 154
Song Yushan and Qin Yuan, one making the fire and the other cooking the noodles, worked together perfectly.

Before setting off this time, Uncle Jin prepared enough long-lasting sauces and food for them to last for more than a month.

Take turns to eat, and by the time they finish eating, it will be time for Uncle Jin and the others to arrive.

"Junior sister, did Uncle Jin and the others receive a letter last night? How long until it arrives?"

"At most half a month."

"Why so fast? Didn't you say it would take more than a month or even two months to arrive? It's only been nearly half a month."

"When there are no boats on the river, the little carp gathers a group of fish to push the boat, which makes it so much faster."

"anyone there?"

"Little Carp is really good. Since Uncle Jin and the others are running much faster than expected, we don't have to skimp on food. Let's eat half an extra salted duck egg each today! Let's get an extra spoonful of fried sauce too!"

"senior?"

"Yeah! That's what I had in mind...wait, senior sister, did you hear anything?"

There was silence in the dining room.

"Senior? Are you there?"

This time Song Yushan and Qin Yuan both heard it. They looked at each other and were shocked: "There is really someone!"

But I couldn't hear clearly what was being said.

Song Yushan immediately threw away the fire stick, put a handful of firewood into the stove with his left hand, pulled out the hairpin-shaped green bamboo branches from his bun with his right hand, and stood up with a swish.

Qin Yuan picked up the noodles in the pot, covered the pot lid, patted the Qiankun bag in his arms, and the Seven Star Sword was in his hand.

The two of them ran out quietly, one behind the other.

Gan Ningguan probably hasn't had any outsiders come for more than ten years.

After Song Yushan and Qin Yuan left the dining hall, they heard no more sounds.

The two of them arrived in front of the main hall, bypassed the bamboo branches that easily made noise, and arrived under the courtyard wall next to the gate.

They did not open the door, but arrived at a wooden ladder specially built on the courtyard wall.

Qin Yuan took the escalator, and Song Yushan climbed up the ladder, reached the top of the wall, and stuck his head out to take a look.

On the stone steps in front of the gate, a Taoist boy rested his chin on his hands and sat dejectedly.

Song Yushan breathed a sigh of relief and immediately turned back to the senior sister and made a no-nonsense gesture.

She took three steps at a time, jumped off the ladder, and said in her senior sister's ear: "It's Xiangxiang, the guide of the Immortal Master Academy. There should be news about the movable type printing."

It's been half a month, and it's time for news.

Song Yushan put the green bamboo branch back on his head, and Qin Yuan put the Seven Star Sword back into the Qiankun bag.

Then he hurriedly went to open the door.

Xiangxiang heard the voice and turned from sadness to joy: "Senior!"

"Fellow Taoist Xiangxiang, I've kept you waiting for a long time." Song Yushan touched his nose: "My senior sister and I were making breakfast in the dining hall, and we were late. By the way, this is my senior sister, Qin Yuan, the master of Ganning Temple. "

Xiangxiang saluted Qin Yuan: "Master Qin!"

"Fellow Taoist Xiangxiang came here on the morning boat, right? Have you had breakfast? If not, let's eat together!" Qin Yuan invited.

It's just a courtesy, why would the governor's daughter go out on an empty stomach?

Even a talented young lady from a small town like her junior sister has someone to take care of her!
Xiangxiang rubbed her belly. The road down the mountain was really barren and weedy. She took the wrong steps twice before she found the way up the mountain.

The road on the mountain is a little better, and it looks like it is often used by people, but it can't stand up to the endless stone steps, one after another.

With a full stomach after eating in the morning, after this walk, there is not much left in the inventory: "That would be disrespectful!"

Qin Yuan: "..."

Suddenly I felt a little distressed, so I ordered two large bowls of noodles. Now I had to share a little bit between each person.

Each person has to take out half of a salted duck egg.Song Yushan saw her senior sister's smile gradually stiffening, which was a bit funny, but she didn't want to expose her: "Fellow Taoist Xiangxiang, please come with us."

Xiangxiang looked at this too deserted Taoist temple curiously. The house was old but not dilapidated, and had a unique atmosphere.

But when she saw the fresh bamboo branches spread out on the ground in front of the main hall, she couldn't move her eyes away.

"This is what my senior sister and I use when we practice." Song Yushan answered her questions at the right time.

As for what she was practicing, she didn't say much.

Xiangxiang nodded. Although she couldn't think of any technique that this bamboo branch could facilitate, she withdrew her gaze and didn't ask any more questions.

Qin Yuan remembered that the noodles in the pot were too soft after being cooked for a long time and lost their strength, so he walked faster and faster.

Song Yushan and Xiangxiang also silently quickened their pace to keep up.

When he arrived at the dining room, Qin Yuan rushed to the stove, opened the lid of the pot, and used his extended chopsticks to read the noodles: "It's okay, it's almost ready to eat."

Song Yushan asked Xiangxiang to sit down first, and then took three large bowls and three small bowls from the cupboard.

If the senior sister hadn't used the Qiankun bag to help her bring everything from the kitchen at home this time, I might not have been able to find the third big bowl of noodles in the house.

One of them was serving noodles and the other was scooping out fried sauce.

Large bowls for noodles and small bowls for noodle soup.

Xiangxiang didn't understand why the wet and dry sides were separated, but seeing the two people's coordinated movements without saying a word, she knew that they were used to it.

Seeing this scene, she suddenly understood why Senior Song, who was extremely talented, was unwilling to transfer to the Immortal Master Academy, but insisted on staying in Gan Ning Guan.

There were only two people in Gan Ning's view, but these two people were enjoying themselves.

"All right!"

The noodles were served on the table and the three of them sat down.

Qin Yuan enthusiastically introduced to Xiangxiang how to eat this noodle, and mixed his own noodles evenly.

The noodles are covered with sauce, which immediately whets one's appetite.

Xiangxiang also mixed her own noodles.

Song Yushan mixed the noodles well and was not in a hurry to eat. Instead, he drank the noodle soup first to moisten his mouth, then peeled a duck egg and put it in a fragrant bowl: "The yolk of the home-made duck eggs is especially delicious. Try it." Give it a try.”

Xiangxiang bit her noodles and nodded. Today's hard journey is worth it with this bowl of noodles.

"Junior sister, you eat too!" Qin Yuan also peeled a duck egg and put it in Song Yushan's bowl.

"Thank you, senior sister." Song Yushan also started eating.

Today's noodles were divided a little, which was less than usual. She was reluctant to eat too fast and tasted it slowly.

Qin Yuan struck three times, five divided two, and peeled an egg for himself.

Then the whole dining hall was filled with the sound of eating noodles and drinking soup.

Not long after, Xiangxiang finished the meal first, she was full.

However, Song Yushan and Qin Yuan were still not satisfied with their meal. They drank two bowls of noodle soup before they were satisfied for the time being.

The cleaning technique cleaned the dishes and stove, moved three chairs and placed them in the yard outside the dining hall, and then the three of them sat down.

While watching the newly caught chickens playing in the yard, he talked about business.

"The matter of movable type printing has been negotiated. The county prince's office will take [-]% and be responsible for taking the lead in contacting the state governments for sales.

Dad took half of it, paid tribute to the reputation of the printing press, and was responsible for dividing the accounts.

You get [-]%, and you can go to the government office at any time to check the sales of movable type printing and collect your share of the money.

This is a deed issued by the Immortal Master Academy. You can put your name on it and put the Zhenqi mark on it to take effect. "
