In the early morning, a ray of sunshine fell on the city wall of Wujiang Town, and the east gate of Wujiang Town opened. Many vendors carried bamboo baskets on their backs and pushed carts, rushing from the outside into Wujiang Town. . . A young man of fifteen or sixteen years old walked toward Wujiang Town in the morning glow. Although the young man's clothes were not gorgeous, he had a restrained temperament. Seeing that there was only one young man, the guards at the east city gate originally wanted to investigate, but when the young man glared at him, they couldn't help but shrink back. There was an instinctive fear in their hearts. This young man is none other than Yan Nantian who came back from the Eternal Forest. After Yan Nantian entered Wujiang Town, there were not many pedestrians and vendors on the road. Yan Nantian hurried on quickly and soon returned to Yuelaiju Restaurant. At this time, Yuelaiju had just opened for business. Two boys were cleaning at the door of the restaurant. When they saw Yan Nantian walking towards the restaurant, a big-eyed boy immediately ran over, bowed to Yan Nantian and said : "Chef Yan, you are back." "Well, is Manager Chen at the restaurant?" Yan Nantian asked. "Yes, please wait in the lobby for a moment. I'll ask Manager Chen to come over." The big-eyed boy said. "Don't worry, I'll go back to Yueshan Room first. When you see Manager Chen, just ask her to go directly to the north room of Yueshan Room to find me." Yan Nantian said. "Chef Yan, you'd better wait in the lobby for a while, I'm afraid it won't be convenient to go back to the Yue Shan Room." The big-eyed boy said hesitantly. "What do you mean? Is there any inconvenience?" Yan Nantian's face changed slightly and he asked. "This" The big-eyed young man was a little embarrassed and said, "Ask the chef, Yan. How about I take you to Songyue Pavilion and let Manager Chen tell you in person?" "Okay." Yan Nantian did not embarrass the other party and nodded slightly. Replied. "Chef Yan, please." The big-eyed boy breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly led the way. After a while, the two quickly arrived at Songyue Pavilion. The maid led Yan Nantian to listen. Chen Xue rushed over not long after, but the look on her face was a little strange. "Manager Chen, what happened? Why can't I go back to Yue Shan Room?" Yan Nantian asked straight to the point. "Chef Yan. Please have a sip of tea and listen to me slowly." Chen Xue waved her hand and signaled the maid on the side to leave. "Yeah." Yan Nantian responded and said. Chen Xue thought about it for a moment. Organized the language. Said: "Yan helped the chef. There were four Lingchu chefs before Yuelaiju. One of them, Pang Lingchu, had been traveling abroad and suddenly came back two days ago. Because he was in a hurry to cook a Lingchu dish, he temporarily occupied the north room. " Yan Nantian's face darkened and he said coldly: "Manager Chen, when I made the first-grade puffer fish, shopkeeper Lin promised me that I could enjoy the treatment of Lingchu. Now you have let Pang Lingchu occupy it without my consent. Isn't it a bit too much to bully others?" "Chef Yan, please don't be angry. This is completely an accident." Chen Xue explained quickly. "Accident? Then why did you occupy my north room instead of the four kitchens in the southeast and west? It's obvious that I, Yan Nantian, are easy to bully. My kitchen utensils and ingredients are all in the north room. If the Lingchu recipe is leaked, who will bear the responsibility? This responsibility. "For a chef, the kitchen is equivalent to his or her own home. If a stranger breaks into your home, no matter who you are, they will be filled with indignation. "I didn't let Pang Lingchu occupy the Yan kitchen. The other party moved your things out of the north room without my consent at all. When I found out, it was already too late, and I even came to argue with you about it. , but because of his status as the spiritual chef, the other party didn¡¯t take me seriously at all." Chen Xue hurriedly took the blame. She didn¡¯t want to offend Yan Nantian for no reason. After hearing Chen Xue's explanation, Yan Nancai looked kinder and asked: "Manager Chen, where are my kitchen utensils and ingredients placed now?" "I have already put them away, and they are placed in Songyue Pavilion. I'll take you to the storage room now." Chen Xue stood up and made a gesture of invitation. "Yeah." Yan Nantian responded and followed Chen Xue outside. Seeing that the atmosphere was somewhat silent, Chen Xue took the initiative to ask on the road: "Chef Yan, why are you back all of a sudden? Didn't the shopkeeper come back with you?" "I encountered some accidents, so I returned to Yuelaiju in advance. "Go and send a guard to tell Shopkeeper Lin." Yan Nantian ordered. "Okay." Chen Xue responded, and then said: "Chef Yan, Chef Pang Ling who occupied your kitchen, also rushed to the eternal forest. I guess you didn't meet him." "Oh, he did it too. Looking for the ruins of Shengxianju." Yan Nantian asked. ¡°I don¡¯t know that."" Chen Xuedao. "Then the north room is empty now?" " Yan Nantian asked. " Yan Sheng, Pang Hongyi's apprentice, is still staying in the Beifang. ""In the Eternal Forest, near Shengxian Ju. After Shengxian Ju was breached, Tang Zhengdong led a group of second-level monks to search Shengxian Ju, but did not find any treasures. Although everyone was very excited. The atmosphere was more of a helpless one. After searching for a long time, Tang Zhengdong and others finally gave up. A group of first-level monks were able to enter Shengxian Residence, but they also found nothing. These first-level monks kept yelling. They were not the first ones to enter Shengxianju. They did not know that Shengxianju was originally empty. They thought that all the treasures in Shengxianju had been divided up by Tang Zhengdong and the second-level monks. Naturally, they were all filled with righteous indignation. In the nearby camp of Yuelaiju, Lin Yue'er, Zhou Xuebin, Li Yue'e, Liu Qiang, Pang Hongyi and others were sitting on the ground around a bonfire. Seeing that the atmosphere was a bit depressing, Lin Yue'er, as the owner of the restaurant, took the initiative and said: "Zhou." Brother, you are the first group to enter Shengxian Residence. What is the situation inside? " "Shopkeeper Lin, everyone, you also entered Shengxian Residence later. What you saw was the same situation I saw. "Zhou Xuebin showed a wry smile and said. "Brother Zhou, you mean to say that all the treasures in Shengxian Ju were looted by Tang Zhengdong first. "Li Yue'e asked. "Although Tang Zhengdong was the first to go in, he didn't get any treasures, at least I didn't see them. "Zhou Xuebin shook his head slightly and said. "Zhou Lingchu, what do you mean? "Pang Hongyi asked back. "After we entered, there was no treasure at all in Shengxian Residence. "Zhou Xuebin said truthfully. "Hahaha, Zhou Lingchu, we are all from Yuelaiju. There is no need for you to use such lies to deceive us. "Pang Hongyi didn't believe Zhou Xuebin's words. In his opinion, Zhou Xuebin said this because he was afraid that others would peek into his treasure. "What I told is the truth. If you don't believe it, then there is nothing I can do. "Zhou Xuebin said. "I believe what you said. There are more than ten people in the first batch of people who entered Shengxian Residence. This kind of thing cannot be hidden at all, and there is no way for you to lie. "Liu Qiang echoed. After hearing Liu Qiang's words, Lin Yue'er and Li Yue'e also nodded slightly, somewhat believing Zhou Xuebin's words, and at the same time regretting that it was a waste of time. However, Pang Hongyi didn't think so and said coldly: "Humph. , fearing that the dozen or so people would want to monopolize the treasure for their own benefit, so they all unified their confessions. " "Pang Hongyi, don't judge a gentleman with a villain's heart. "Zhou Xuebin scolded. "Zhou Lingchu, Pang Lingchu, please be patient. Lin Yue'er hurriedly stood up to smooth things over. She changed the subject and asked, "Pang Lingchu, when you come back this time, are you going to stay in Yuelaiju permanently or continue to travel outside." " "Well, when I come back this time, I plan to stay in Yuelaiju for a while. Pang Hongyi said perfunctorily. "So that's it. After I go back, I will arrange a kitchen for you." " Lin Yue'er said. "No need, I have already occupied the north room of Yue Shan Room, so there is no need to trouble Shopkeeper Lin. Pang Hongyi said. "The north room of Yue Shan Fang?" Isn't that Yan Nantian's chef? How can you occupy someone else's kitchen without permission? "Liu Qiang's face changed and he asked. Zhou Xuebin also looked ugly. Which chef has no secrets in the kitchen? Pang Hongyi occupied other people's kitchen without permission. It can be said to be very rude. "Huh, He's just a helper, so what's so great about him? I just need to tell him where he is now. Pang Hongyi said nonchalantly. There is a big difference between the status of the assistant chef and the spiritual chef. Pang Hongyi doesn't think there is anything wrong with doing this, and he is not afraid of offending a small assistant chef. After hearing Pang Hongyi's words, Lin Yue'er also It was a bit embarrassing to occupy someone else's kitchen without permission, but Pang Hongyi went too far, but Yan Nantian was not here, so she couldn't say much. The more important question now is, where is Yan Nantian? A room to the east of Songyue Pavilion is a relatively remote storage room. There are some kitchen utensils and ingredients that belong to Yan Nantian. Under the leadership of Chen Xue, Yan Nantian quickly arrived. Here, seeing his things being placed in the corner of the storage room, Yan Nantian had a gloomy look on his face. ¡°Chef Yan, please check to see if there is anything missing. "Chen Xue was also a little embarrassed.He stepped aside and made a gesture of please. "Yeah." Yan Nantian responded and began to check his things. Among them, there was a kitchen knife placed on the wooden stand. Yan Nantian picked it up and looked at it. The tip and blade of the knife were rolled up. It was probably caused by someone throwing it on the ground. Yan Nantian's face changed slightly. This knife was a kitchen knife given to him by Yan Yunhua after he entered Yuelai Residence. Yan Nantian has always cherished it very much and would often take it out to clean it. Unexpectedly, it was destroyed now. Yan Nantian didn't speak for a long time, and the atmosphere in the room was a bit depressing. Chen Xue forced out a smile and asked: "Chef Yan, is there anything missing in your things? If there is anything missing, I will help you go to the north room to ask. , Maybe it was left somewhere.¡± ¡°Yes,¡± Yan Nantian said. "Chef Yan, what are you missing? Although Chef Pang Ling is not in Yuelaiju, his apprentice Yan Sheng is still there. I can ask him to help you find it." Chen Xuedao. "I lost a thousand spiritual stones!" (To be continued)
