The first Taoist priest of the Tang Dynasty

What kind of acquired innate, is this a cultivator or something, and in the end there is a person who is superior to innate, what kind of level is this?

Of course, Zhong Wen wanted to know what level he belonged to, otherwise, the next time he meets a master, he might be a congenital superior, but he is an acquired one, and instead ran over to pretend to be coercive, wouldn't that be courting death?

"When my master was still alive, he once said that under the consummation, he is just an ordinary person. Only above the consummation is the highest meaning of martial arts. As for how to distinguish, I don't know, even my master has never Talk to me carefully."

After Li Shan finished speaking, he stopped talking and made no more noise.

Even Zhong Wen didn't know how to continue asking.

Chapter 242 The Wedding Banquet

Before dark, Li Shan left.

But Zhong Wen sat blankly in the lobby of the guest house with his head full of question marks, not even knowing when Li Shan left.

What acquired, what innate, all flashed in his mind.

As for Zhong Wen himself, what level he belongs to, he still hasn't figured it out yet.

And as Li Shan said, he belongs to the postnatal, close to perfection.

And how to say this consummation?Is it an acquired consummation, or is it a level in itself?Or is it the highest level of achievement of an acquired master?

Many questions appeared in Zhong Wen's mind, and there was no answer at all, even Li Shan didn't know, all this made Zhong Wen feel a little confused.

As for Jin Shui and Xu Fu, after Li Shan left, they were already standing not far away, just like Zhong Wen's state at this time, in a daze.

And the daze they were in was just pure daze, unlike Zhong Wen's current thinking, which was still active, even more thinking.

When the lights came on, it was getting dark.

"Xu Fu, go and wake up the Taoist priest, if this continues, do we still have dinner?"

Jin Shui pushed Xu Fu who was standing beside him, and motioned him to wake Zhong Wen up.

"I want to go to you, I dare not go."

Once Xu Fu was so stared at by Li Shan that he didn't dare to speak, but now, as at that time, he didn't dare to disturb Zhong Wen, as if he was afraid of being beaten up.

"What are you doing? Don't you see it's getting dark? Don't you know how to light some oil lamps?"

After another quarter of an hour or two, Zhong Wen regained his composure.

Seeing those two goods standing not far from the gate, I don't know what they are doing.

"Hey, Taoist priest, are you awake?"

After Jin Shui came to his senses, he trotted quickly and approached Zhong Wen, and asked in a low voice.

"Why? Why don't you light the oil lamps? Also, is the meal ready? Xu Fu, what are you doing there? Don't cook, are you going to starve to death? Do you still need room and board money?"

Zhong Wen was a little baffled. What are these two bastards doing? It's dark today, and they don't know how to light oil lamps or cook.

When Xu Fu heard Zhong Wen talk about the money for board and lodging, he immediately collapsed three feet high and ran to the back kitchen, as if he was afraid that Zhong Wen would not give him the money for board and lodging.

That night, after Zhong Wen finished his meal, he went back to his room.Even medical skills are not sorted out, or to review.

Li Shan's teaching today gave him many doubts, which made it difficult for him to digest.

When the next day dawned, Zhong Wen returned to his normal state, regarding what Li Shan said yesterday, it was as if he had heard a story.

It was what it was, Zhong Wen knew very well in his heart that he was nothing, so he might as well just be himself honestly.

Although these so-called master differences made Zhong Wen feel more pressure, after all, Taiyi Sect belongs to one of the seven major sects.

But now, after one night, he has calmed down. Anyway, he doesn't know anything, so it's better to pretend that he doesn't know anything, so what if he hears a name?

Just work harder on your own, maybe, in the future, you can also become the superior person of that person, and then go to the Taiyi Gate and ask for the Taoist classics of the master's school, then, from now on, you will be fine. You can also be at ease.

Although, this goal is far away, but if you don't work hard, who knows, you can only blame your master's opponent for being too strong.

Fortunately, my master had never had any accidents in the past, otherwise, I would probably still be worrying about my livelihood at this time.

"Jin Shui, Xu Fu, you two come over and have a look, is the preparation on these lists almost?"

Zhong Wen held the list he had written, which basically included the people to be invited, and the ingredients that needed to be prepared.

"Hey, good."

The two quickly approached Zhong Wen, carefully picked up the list on the table and looked at it.

After the two of them got up early in the morning, they were still like yesterday, not daring to say a word, and they were nervous all morning.

But now, Zhong Wen took the list that he had written for a long time, and after calling the two of them over, he was still cautious, for fear that Zhong Wen would get angry.

"I said, you two, what's the matter today? So honest? See clearly, are the people and things on the list almost the same?"

"Master Dao, aren't we afraid that you will get angry? It seems that you are well today."

"I don't care if I'm okay or not. It's just the two of you who are thinking about it. I don't bother to talk about you two."

"Hey Hey."

Afterwards, the three of them returned to their original appearance, laughing when they should, and making trouble when they should, and of course, nothing can happen.

Then the three of them acted separately, those who should go shopping went shopping, and those who should write posts wrote posts.

In the afternoon, Jin Shui took a handful of posts and ran throughout Chang'an City, sending posts to various medical clinics.

In fact, Zhong Wen only knew these people, and basically didn't know anyone.

But at this time, Zhong Wen went to Zongzheng Temple by himself, took a post and handed it to the man named Li Zhong, not much to say, but he wanted to throw a banquet or something.

Afterwards, he went to Cheng Yaojin's mansion again, handed a post to the concierge and left.

As for Li Shan's post, Zhong Wen did not send it himself, but sent it by Jin Shui. However, Chen Chunsheng's post was sent by himself.

Adding up all the people, there are only so many people, but there is one more person that Zhong Wen must send, and that is Taoist Zhang Chong's disciple Zhengfeng.

As for Zhengfeng, Zhong Wen once met him once, but after that, he basically never saw him again, because he was working in the Jinwu Guard, so naturally it was inconvenient to meet guests.

However, after Zhong Wen delivered the post from Zongzheng Temple and went to the Jinwuwei Yamen, he was blocked, so Zhong Wen had to give up, and Jin Shui sent it out in the end.

Three days later, Jin Shui replaced Zhong Wen in front of the gate of Huilai guest house, greeted all the guests, and entered the guest house.

And these invited people, the first ones to arrive, were basically the doctors in the medical center where Zhong Wen himself had been.

For these people, it can be said that they are half of Zhong Wen's teachers, and Zhong Wen also respects them very much.

No matter whether they really taught him or not, they cannot get rid of the fact that they were once Zhong Wen's half-teacher.

The sound of congratulations, from morning to noon.

That's right, Zhong Wen continued the tradition of this era, the time for the banquet was not at night, but at noon.

It is said that in ancient times, or even in the Tang Dynasty, all banquets were basically at noon, but there was no such thing as evening.

After all, you can't go out at night if you want. Whether it's Chang'an City or some other prefectures and counties, at night, there is a curfew. Do you want to go to the banquet?There are no doors.

And what is Zhong Wen doing at this time?

Of course, the dishes are fried in the back kitchen, and Xu Fu is the helper.

Zhong Wen started to prepare from early in the morning, which can be described as extremely hard work.

Although there were not that many people who were invited to the banquet, if they all came, the number of people could make up three tables.

The main reason is that there are more doctors in those medical centers, but there are very few other people.

"Xiao Daoist, haha, I thought you forgot me at first, why did you start working as a cook in this back kitchen?"

At this time, Cheng Chumo dressed like a second devil, walked into the back kitchen, and watched Zhong Wenzheng diligently fry the dishes.

"So it's General Cheng. This is the back kitchen. You should sit in the lobby. This is not the place for your status."

How could Zhong Wen have time to greet people? If this dish can't be fried, it would be a bit embarrassing.

"Do you want me to help? If you want help, just talk."

Cheng Chumo didn't listen to Zhong Wen's intention to leave, but stood aside, watching Zhong Wen stir-fry the dishes, and the smell was always very fragrant.

"General Cheng, you should go out first and wait quietly at the table. Please forgive me for the poor hospitality."

In the end, Zhong Wen couldn't bear this Little Demon King Cheng, so he had to hire out the back cook.

"Cheng Chumo, this is the wedding banquet you brought me here, and you said you wanted to introduce someone to me? Could it be the one who is in charge of the kitchen?"

A young man has been standing at the door of the back kitchen, looking towards the back kitchen.

It wasn't until Cheng Chumo came out that he asked aloud.

"Your Highness, don't underestimate this little Daoist leader. However, now is not the time for me to elaborate. I will explain it to you later."

Cheng Chumo hurriedly crossed the road, so that His Highness would not talk too much and disturb the head chef who was cooking. Otherwise, if this went crazy, he would not be able to stop it.He, Cheng Chumo, saw this little Taoist leader with his own eyes, wounded his Uncle Yuchi with a few swords, and afterward, the Holy Majesty passed down a message that the matter should be dropped.

In fact, Cheng Chumo would not have brought this highness here to the banquet, if it hadn't been for the fact that this highness happened to be in his residence when he received the invitation card that day, he would not have brought him here.

Not long after, Li Shan also came.

However, due to official reasons, after leaving some gifts, he left without even seeing Zhong Wen.

As for Zhengfeng, it also came with Li Shan, so it didn't leave with Li Shan, but stayed in the lobby and sat there like a wooden man.

Even if he and Cheng Chumo knew each other, they didn't talk too much in the past.

But the last one to come was Li Zhonglei from Zongzheng Temple.

However, before Li Zhongren arrived, he sent a butler over, and at the same time, brought a lot of gifts.

"Everyone, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm going to cook and stir-fry dishes for you, and I really don't have the time to meet you. Please forgive me."

After Zhong Wen finished cooking the last dish, he came out of the back kitchen and bowed to everyone sitting in the lobby as an apology.

"Prince Xiaodao, it's okay. It's a rare thing for you to cook dishes for us with your own hands. How can we take offense?"

Everyone got up and returned the salute to Zhong Wen, expressing that nothing happened.

"Then since everyone has arrived and the time is just right, I'll pass on the dishes, Jin Shui, come and pass on the dishes together."

Zhong Wen looked at the people in the lobby, almost all of them had arrived, except Li Shan.

Of course, Jin Shui had already told him about Li Shan, but Zhong Wendao didn't care.

Afterwards, the dishes began to be passed up by the three of them.

Plates of dishes began to be placed on the three tables. The color and aroma attracted the attention of everyone present.

Even the people present here have a lot of knowledge, but they have never seen such a dish system, and the aroma almost made everyone's eyes fall to the ground.

There are not many dishes, eight meat, three vegetables and one soup, a total of twelve dishes, which means one cycle, similarly, it also means twelve hours, and also refers to the twelve zodiac signs. In fact, it basically means twelve, auspicious. meaning.

Stuffed lamb, braised pork, rotten stewed trotters, three-cup chicken, blood duck, roasted whole goose, stir-fried eel, braised fish, a total of eight meat dishes.

Vegetarian fried shepherd's purse, braised tofu, vegetarian fried lotus root, three vegetarian dishes.

Finally, there is a soup with eggs, vegetables and mushrooms.

The wine, of course, is ordinary fruit wine, and you can't buy any good wine in the West Market, so it can only be like this. As for the fruit after the meal, Zhong Wen didn't prepare it.

But there is basically a pot of tea on every table.

"Everyone, I wrote a letter from my family some time ago. My aunt gave birth to a son, and another son was added to my family, who is my younger brother. As an elder brother, I can't serve at home. It really violates the filial piety of a son. In Chang'an, but having such a happy event, we naturally have to hold a banquet for my younger brother, so please come and celebrate."

"These dishes are not prepared by any restaurant, they are all prepared by myself. Everyone, please pick up your chopsticks and taste them. Here, Jiushou would like to thank everyone for coming to join us, thank you."

Zhong Wen sat at the table, raised his wine glass, and spoke loudly to less than 20 people present, his face was full of excitement.

"The Nine-headed Daoist is being polite."

"The Taoist priest is too polite."

"Junior Brother Jiushou is being polite."

"..."

Everyone has long been impatient, and the dishes on the table in front of them have already made others jealous.

But Cheng Chumo kept shouting in his heart: Xiao Daoist, can you stop talking?Can I eat it?I can't stand the smell.

"Then please start, everyone, sorry for the poor hospitality."

Finally, Zhong Wen saluted, and this was the end.

At this time, everyone put down their wine glasses, picked up chopsticks, and began to eat.
