The mage in the city wants to practice Taoism

When it was getting late but still bright, Xi Mengxiu went into the kitchen, packed some ribs for stew, and marinated a piece of beef with onions, ginger, sauce, and cooking wine, and set an alarm clock for half an hour. Then go back to the outer living room to chat.

Just when Xi Mengxiu accompanied his wife and Xiaodie to prepare dinner. A man came outside his house and lingered outside for a few minutes, as if he had been doing some mental construction.

Security guard Zhao Du ran over to take a look and found that he had some impression of this cool and beautiful girl. She was a resident of the community, but she did not live in an independent house in the southeast area. She seemed to live in a high-rise residential area.

Bai Xuanyuan hesitated for a while to ring the doorbell, waited a moment, pressed it again, and then knocked directly on the door. Somewhat sadly, he put down the bag he was carrying and took out his cell phone to call Xi Mengxiu.

Xi Mengxiu had just turned down the stewed pork ribs on low heat and was preparing to stew it for a while. He was peeling potatoes in his hand to make French fries, which Xiaodie loved to eat.

The phone rang, Xiaodie came over with a strange expression on her phone, answered the call at Xi Mengxiu's signal, and turned on the speakerphone.

"Xi Mengxiu, are you at home?"

"Oh, Xiaoxuan, you're not here. I'm at my master's wife's house to celebrate the festival with them. Is there anything wrong?"

"...It's okay, I wanted to send you a box of mooncakes..."

After exchanging a few greetings and wishing each other happy holidays, they hung up the phone.

"Brother Xiu, your ringtone is quite interesting. It rings suddenly when it's quiet. It shouldn't scare people, especially if it rings at night."

Xiaodie thought about the name of the caller and wanted to ask something, but she held it back, and then casually talked about the ringtone.

Xi Mengxiu fiddled with the work in his hands and said casually:

"No, maybe I'm used to it."

Peel the potatoes, wash them, and cut them into thin strips that are thinner than your little finger. When the water in the pot is boiling, put them in for a while, then quickly take them out and filter the water. Sprinkle them with corn starch and shake them evenly. Put more in the pot. Heat the oil over medium heat. When the oil is hot, put the fries into the oil pan and fry until they change color slightly and swell. Take them out of the pan, let them cool down and then fry them again until they are golden in color...

Sprinkle half of the fries with pepper, salt and chili powder, and put half on a separate plate for Xiaodie to dip into ketchup.

Xi Mengxiu continued to deal with the ingredients. There were only three people, and they already had a braised pork rib. Fry the beef, cut into thin strips, and sprinkle with salt and chopped green onion. I simply fried broccoli and added boiled Chinese cabbage. At this point, the amount of food was actually enough. Xi Mengxiu thought about it and fried some scrambled eggs with tomatoes. Mainly because he actually ate it himself. He had a big appetite and couldn't hold his mouth shut...

The food was served and the three of them drank drinks. Xiaodie ran to turn on the TV, continued to play along the playback record, and then complained that the idol drama her mother watched was too outrageous. How could a doctor who has a mental illness go to the operating table to operate on a patient? She was so embarrassed. Smiling and explaining that the second male lead is fine...

This is the feeling of home.

......

Outside Xi Mengxiu's own home, Bai Xuanyuan was silent for a long time. She didn't even know what she was thinking.

Security guard Zhao came over again, looked at the cold and dazed Bai Xuanyu, and reminded him kindly:

"Little girl, the owner of this house is probably not at home. Otherwise, you can call him and ask! It's not a problem to wait like this!"

Bai Xuanyuan came out of his daze, looked at Old Zhao in confusion and said:

"Thank you, uncle! I called...I'm leaving now."

Lao Zhao looked at the girl and wanted to tell the head of the household that a lot of people came to give gifts today. Then the head of the household himself went out with gifts. He also wanted to tell the head of the household about the changes in the past two months and wanted the girl to know more about it. . But he hesitated to speak. After all, he was a security guard and could not discuss revealing the information of the head of the household.

Bai Xuanyuan carried the bag she had prepared and walked slowly towards the high-rise residential area in the northwest of the community. The street lights in the community stretched her shadow.

"Xiao Xuan——"

When he heard someone shouting, Bai Xuanyuan turned around with unfocused eyes, and gradually saw clearly that the two people walking over were Wang Zhoulong and Ren Min. Bai Xuanyuan came back to his senses and said hello with a smile:

"Brother Xiaoshun, Sister Ren, why did you come back from outside together?"

Ren Min and Wang Zhoulong each had their own thoughts and a certain degree of tacit understanding. They turned their eyes away from the door of Xi Mengxiu's room not far away, looked at each other, and then looked at Bai Xuanyuan at the same time.

Wang Zhoulong: "Isn't Daxiu at home...I had something to do outside, and I met Dr. Ren. She sent me back by the way...I also wanted to say hello to Daxiu!"

Maybe he was just passing by. Wang Zhoulong's eyes turned and landed on the bag Bai Xuanyuan was carrying.

Bai Xuanyuan noticed the look in their eyes, nodded and smiled:

"Yes, Mr. Xi Mengxiu is not here. I called and asked, and he said he was going to his master's mother-in-law's house to celebrate the festival."

The hand holding the bag shook slightly and said:

"I also said that since he is alone and doesn't have many relatives or friends, I happened to make something delicious and bring it to him to try!"

Ren Min was surprised when he heard Xi Mengxiu's "Master's Wife". After recalling it carefully, he was probably sure it meant Professor Ji Mengliang's wife. I continued to hear the rest and pursed my lips unconsciously.

Wang Zhoulong rubbed his nose unnaturally and didn't know what he was thinking of. His eyes paused and he said:

"That's because Daxiu has no appetite. I happen to be hungry too. How about the three of us eat together? Come to my house and I'll order two more dishes to be delivered."

After saying this, Wang Zhoulong cursed in his heart, complaining that he had a brain twitch.

I still felt somewhat comforted because as a girl, how could I easily go to someone else's residence? But they forgot that everyone knew him and he was not a stranger, not to mention that Dr. Ren was not as strong as a mortal. Of course, he didn't know that Bai Xuanyuan had transformed into a completely different person in less than two months. Although he was still far from extraordinary, there was no problem in beating him like a child.

Both women nodded in agreement with Wang Zhoulong's proposal. Under the guidance of Wang Zhoulong's somewhat stiff steps, the three of them arrived at Wang Zhoulong's residence.

Wang Zhoulong has both parents, a brother and a sister. He is nearly thirty years old and is still unmarried. He can't stand the nagging of his parents. He lives in a suite in a high-rise residential building to the west and south.

He asked someone from his shop to deliver three dishes. Almost a few minutes after the three of them arrived home, the dishes were delivered with rice, and Wang Zhoulong paid for them himself.

The three of them opened Bai Xuanyuan's insulated soup bucket, revealing two plates of side dishes and a bucket of ham and chicken stewed with enough ingredients to spread the aroma.

"Stewed chicken with ham, I remember this is Da Xiu's favorite..."

When the words came out, Wang Zhoulong secretly scolded himself for talking too much! Then he scolded Daxiu as a scumbag, but Bai Xuanyuan had already noticed that his thoughts were wrong. But Ren Min, this person was obviously Bai Xuanyuan's friend at first. The behavior seen in the banquet hall early this morning was clearly Da Xiu's guy who had no idea how to tug at people's heartstrings. But Overhaul looks like he knows nothing about it!

The two women didn't know what they were thinking. They simply asked about the situation of Xi Mengxiu's teacher's mother-in-law's family. Wang Zhoulong only knew roughly about this situation. He knew that Professor Ji regarded Xi Mengxiu as his biological child. Xi Mengxiu had a close relationship with the Ji family in the past. He didn't even see Xi Mengxiu that much, so he didn't know the situation.

"Actually, your sister should know better."

Scolding himself again in his mind for speaking without thinking, Wang Zhoulong confirmed that he had not had a good rest since last night and was in a trance, unable to control his thoughts and speech.

Seeing that they had almost eaten, Wang Zhoulong hurriedly ordered the two beauties to leave:

"You two, there were too many things going on from yesterday to this afternoon. I feel like I'm in a trance and weak, so I won't entertain you much. You guys should go back early. I'll get some sleep and rest early. I'll go home for the festival tomorrow! "

Ren Min and Bai Xuanzhen left Wang Zhoulong's house. They walked in silence with their own thoughts. In fact, it was not that far. After all, they were in a community. Ren Min wanted to pick up the car in the underground parking lot, so he said goodbye to Bai Xuanzhen.

When leaving, Ren Mincai asked complicatedly:

"Xiao Xuan, although Taiyi's method of crossing the gods is a noble and righteous way, you still have to pay attention to the degree of relaxation, and going too far is not enough!"

Bai Xuanyuan nodded and chuckled: "Okay, I understand, Sister Ren. Speaking of which, I have to thank you for your advice."

I wish you really knew. In less than two months, ordinary people who have never practiced martial arts have practiced the Taiyi Divine Crossing Technique to this extent. They are either geniuses or over-squeezing their own potential!
