Chapter 258
"To improve your cultivation, you need diligent practice and constant insights. At the same time, you also need opportunities. Blood Moon Mountain may be our opportunity to improve our cultivation." A mysterious light flashed in Ren Xiaoyao's eyes.
"Master, when do we set off?" The disciples couldn't wait any longer.
"No rush, we still have some time to prepare. During this time, you must practice hard and improve your strength. Only in this way can we survive in Blood Moon Mountain." Ren Xiaoyao said.
"Yes, Master, we will definitely practice hard and improve our strength." The disciples said confidently.
"That's good. Now you go and get ready. The day of our departure is not far away." Ren Xiaoyao waved his hand, and the disciples left one after another, leaving only silence in the room.
"Master, please stop keeping me in suspense and tell me now!"
......
Everyone asked questions at once.
Ren Xiaoyao had no choice but to tell everyone in detail what he knew about the Sword Ghost. After listening to him, everyone suddenly realized what he meant and praised Ren Xiaoyao for his extraordinary intelligence.
Ren Xiaoyao smiled and shook his head.
"Okay, let's go eat first. You've been traveling all the way, and we'll continue on our way after dinner." Ren Xiaoyao said.
"Okay, Master, let's go now!" Everyone responded and followed Ren Xiaoyao towards the dining table in the cave.
Ren Xiaoyao led everyone into the cave, and saw a table placed on a huge rock. Ren Xiaoyao took the lead and sat at the main seat, and the other disciples also took their seats and began to eat.
"Uncle Xiaoyao, were these all made by our master? They smell so good that I'm drooling." A female disciple was full of excitement. She picked up a piece of braised pork with chopsticks and put it in her mouth. After chewing it for a few times, her eyes suddenly widened with surprise on her face.
"This braised pork is so delicious, Master. How come your braised pork is so delicious? Please teach it to me, and I will also learn to cook in the future!" The disciple swallowed the braised pork and looked at Ren Xiaoyao excitedly.
Ren Xiaoyao smiled and nodded, saying: "Okay"
No problem, then little sister, just learn it! Come, tell me how your master made this braised pork.
The disciple immediately started talking nonstop, from the control of the heat to the combination of seasonings, from the cooking techniques to the taste experience, she explained everything in detail, as if an experienced chef was imparting secrets.
Ren Xiaoyao listened intently and nodded in praise. Seeing this, all the disciples could not help but salivate, as if they had already smelled the tempting aroma of the braised pork.
"Master, you see I have almost understood it, please test me again!" The disciple looked at Ren Xiaoyao with a proud look on his face.
Ren Xiaoyao smiled slightly and asked, "Well, let me ask you again, do you know the secret of your master's braised pork?"
The disciple was immediately confused. She pondered for a moment and shook her head, "I am stupid and don't know."
Ren Xiaoyao smiled and shook his head. "Your master once told me that the secret of this braised pork is in the final stage of collecting the sauce."
"The juice collecting stage?" The disciple looked puzzled.
"Yes, the stage of collecting the sauce is the key to determining the taste of the braised pork. When cooking, first boil it with high heat, then simmer it on low heat. When the soup gradually thickens, turn to high heat to quickly collect the sauce." Ren Xiaoyao explained.
The disciple nodded thoughtfully, "I see, thank you for your guidance, Master!"
"Okay, now it's time for you to set off." Ren Xiaoyao stood up, put his hands behind his back, looked up at the top of the cave, and said in a deep voice.
"Then I will teach you how to braise pork. Please listen carefully." Ren Xiaoyao said.
The girl nodded repeatedly and pricked up her ears in anticipation.
Ren Xiaoyao coughed and said, "First, cut the fresh pork belly into small pieces, blanch it in boiling water to remove the blood, then put it into the pot and stir-fry until golden brown, then add appropriate amount of cooking wine, light soy sauce, dark soy sauce, rock sugar, and seasonings such as onion, ginger, garlic, etc., then add appropriate amount of water, simmer on low heat for about an hour, and finally collect the sauce and serve it on a plate."
The girl was fascinated by what she heard and nodded repeatedly.
"Do you understand?" Ren Xiaoyao asked.
"I understand, Master." The girl nodded and said, "You are so kind, thank you Master!"
“Okay, then you should study hard so that you can cook by yourself when you have the chance in the future.” Ren Xiaoyao said with a smile.
"Yes, I will definitely study hard!" The girl nodded firmly.
Everyone continued to enjoy the food, and Ren Xiaoyao also shared his cooking and sword skills with the disciples, which benefited the disciples a lot. Before they knew it, the sky gradually darkened, and everyone spent the night in the cave. The next morning, everyone left the cave and continued on their journey, heading towards the Jiuyang Mountains.
"Okay, since you want to learn, I'll teach you. However, cooking is not an easy task. It requires patience and carefulness. First, you have to choose good ingredients. Fresh ingredients can make delicious dishes. Secondly, you have to learn how to control the heat. Too high or too low a heat will affect the taste of the dish. Finally, you have to learn how to mix seasonings. The combination of seasonings is also one of the keys to cooking."
The girl listened with great interest and nodded repeatedly, saying, "Master, I will definitely study hard!"
Seeing this, everyone expressed their desire to learn how to cook. Ren Xiaoyao smiled and nodded, saying, "Okay, let's learn together. When we travel around the world, we can not only practice martial arts, but also cook delicious food."
After hearing this, everyone burst into laughter and the atmosphere was very harmonious.
After finishing the meal, everyone started to clean up the dishes. At this time, a young disciple suddenly asked: "Master, should we go find the sword ghost now?"
Ren Xiaoyao glanced at him calmly and said, "There is no rush to find the Sword Ghost. Let's practice here for a while, and then we can find him when the time is right."
After hearing this, everyone nodded silently to show their understanding.
In this way, Ren Xiaoyao led his disciples to practice in the cave for a period of time, and finally decided to set out to find the sword ghost. They embarked on a long journey, and after going through untold hardships along the way, they finally found the place where the sword ghost was...
"Okay, once you learn it, you won't have to worry about not finding a husband." Ren Xiaoyao teased.
"Master, please stop making fun of me." The girl blushed and glared at Ren Xiaoyao, then asked curiously, "Master, how did you make the braised pork so delicious?"
"This is a secret," Ren Xiaoyao smiled mysteriously, "Take your time to eat, I'll tell you after you're done."
"Master, you are so nice. This is the temptation of a foodie." Someone joked.
Everyone was laughing and enjoying the food, and gradually, the cave was filled with laughter.
After the meal, Ren Xiaoyao led everyone out of the cave and continued their journey. Along the way, they talked and laughed, admired the beautiful scenery along the way, and did not forget to practice swordsmanship.
"Master, can we defeat the Sword Ghost when we go to his lair this time?" someone couldn't help but ask.
"Don't worry," Ren Xiaoyao said confidently, "As long as we unite as one, the Sword Ghost will not be our opponent."
"That's a relief," everyone agreed, "We will definitely follow Master and defeat the Sword Ghost."
In this way, they laughed and talked all the way, moving towards the lair of the Sword Ghost, as if they could already see the dawn of victory.
Everyone looked at Ren Xiaoyao curiously, waiting for him to continue.
"In fact, this sword ghost is not a psychic, but a special kind of monster!"
"A special monster?"
"Yes, it is a special monster. It does not belong to the monster world, nor does it belong to the monster world. I once encountered a sword ghost, and it took the two of us to defeat it together. Unfortunately, it escaped."
"Master, we have to find that sword ghost and kill him to avenge you."
"Yes, kill him and avenge you!"
“Yes! Revenge!”
Everyone spoke angrily, their eyes filled with anger.
"No!" Ren Xiaoyao flatly rejected everyone's request.
Everyone was stunned for a moment and looked at Ren Xiaoyao in confusion.
Ren Xiaoyao took a deep breath, his eyes became serious, and said: "This time we went to find the sword ghost to help it recover its body, and then kill it to prevent it from hurting people's lives."
"Ah!" All the disciples were stunned upon hearing this. They stared with their eyes wide open in disbelief. "Master, that sword ghost can actually recover its original form? This..."
Ren Xiaoyao smiled faintly and explained: "Yes! The true form of this sword ghost is extraordinary, it is a top-grade spiritual sword"
"What? The Sword Ghost can restore its original form?" The disciples exclaimed, with looks of disbelief on their faces.
Ren Xiaoyao nodded slightly and said, "Yes, if this sword ghost can recover its original form, it will be a great help to us."
"But, Master, what does this Sword Ghost's true form look like? How could it be so powerful?"
Ren Xiaoyao smiled calmly and said, "Well, just listen to me carefully. The original form of this sword ghost is a top-grade spiritual sword. It has infinite power and spirituality, and is the treasure that countless cultivators dream of. However, this sword ghost is extremely ferocious when it is in the form of a demon beast. It can fight against an entire sect on its own. If it is allowed to recover its original form, then its power and spirituality will reach an unprecedented level."
When everyone heard Ren Xiaoyao's words, they couldn't help but gasp, looking at him with horror, secretly guessing the power of the sword ghost's real body.
Ren Xiaoyao looked at the crowd, smiled faintly, and said, "Okay, let's get back to business. We need to find the sword ghost, help him recover his true form, and then kill him to eliminate future troubles."
After hearing Ren Xiaoyao's words, everyone fell silent. They knew that this mission was very important and would require them to make great efforts and sacrifices. However, for the hatred of their master and the honor of the entire sect, they followed Ren Xiaoyao without hesitation and embarked on the journey to find the Sword Ghost.
"Top-grade spiritual sword?" everyone repeated in shock, with excitement and curiosity flashing in their eyes.
"That's right, it's a top-grade spiritual sword!" Ren Xiaoyao's voice was full of confidence, as if he was telling a legendary story.
"Master, that top-grade spiritual sword must be very powerful, right?" a young disciple couldn't help but ask.
"Of course it is powerful! This top-grade spiritual sword is an ancient divine weapon with infinite power. It's just that the sword ghost went astray and was corroded by evil forces, becoming extremely violent. We have to find it, help it restore its nature, and then kill it to prevent it from continuing to harm innocent people." Ren Xiaoyao said in a firm tone.
"Master, how do we find that top-grade spiritual sword?" another disciple asked doubtfully.
"Hmph, although this sword ghost is cunning, I believe its whereabouts will leave clues. We just need to follow these clues and we will be able to find it. When the time comes, you must be prepared, because this battle will be very difficult." Ren Xiaoyao said in a deep voice.
The disciples nodded their heads in understanding after hearing this. They knew that this mission was not an easy one, but for the sake of their master's revenge and the peace of the martial arts world, they had to do their best.
"Master, we will definitely work hard!" a disciple said confidently.
"Okay! Let's set off!" Ren Xiaoyao waved his hand and led the disciples on the journey to find the Sword Ghost.
Along the way, Ren Xiaoyao constantly taught his disciples how to deal with various dangers, and the disciples also humbly learned, and gradually, their martial arts made great progress. And the mysterious top-grade spiritual sword also became more and more attractive in their hearts.
