"Mr. Zhou came to Dai Temple yesterday. I happened to have something to go out, so I had to hand over the arrangements for the prince and Mr. Zhou to other people to handle the matter of handling it. I wanted to see the adults' style again in the evening, but I didn't expect that the adults had already climbed the mountain.

It’s not until today that I have the opportunity to see the true face of the adult. I didn’t expect that the adult was younger than I thought. It’s really young and promising. I’m here to pay a cup to Lord Zhou!”

Taoist Zi You, opposite Zhou Chong, raised his wine glass and smiled at Zhou Chong.

Taoist Ziyou was just sixty years old. Her gray hair was covered with long gray beards, and she was wearing a green Taoist robe. She really looked like a master when she sat there. Taoist Ziyou was Dai

The temple blessings of the temple, and the incense of the entire Dai Temple by the manager is equivalent to the abbot of the monk temple. Not to mention the level of Taoism, but he is extremely proficient in the customs of welcoming and sending gifts, and at the banquet

Zhou Chong also had a lot of fun talking.

"Master Ziyou is so polite. Zhou is just a plain person. He was appreciated by His Majesty by chance, so he got this high position. However, Zhou is now walking on thin ice and never dares to forget His Majesty's teachings at all times.

It’s not that Taoist Master is free and easy!" Zhou Chong also raised his glass to Taoist Master Ziyou and said, "It’s all our first time meeting. If we want to get close to each other, we can only use this method of flattering each other.

However, as soon as Zhou Chong finished speaking, he heard Zhu Youqing beside him laughing and said, "Wenda, don't think that Taoist Ziyou can be free and easy as a monk. In fact, in order to maintain the livelihood of Dai Temple, he usually does not want to be a monk.

They are also calculating the output of the fields and whether the monthly incense money can cope with the expenses in the temple. So although Taoist Priest Ziyou is wearing a Taoist robe, he actually does something similar to a businessman!”

Hearing Zhu Youwei's words, he didn't look like a Taoist priest at all. Taoist Ziyou was not angry at all. He smiled and said, "Your Highness is right. Although we monks claim to ignore mortal affairs, we are actually human beings.

How can you completely get rid of the mundane affairs in the mortal world? I am the one who serves as a temple and temple. Although I am busy and have no time to practice Taoism, it can make other brothers ignore those mundane affairs. Buddhism also says, "I won't go to hell."

.Who goes to hell? Although we Taoism is different from Buddhism, it is also common in some places."

When he said this, Master Ziyou paused for a moment and then said: "In addition, for me, ordinary things are also a test for my heart. Only by fully seeing the mortal world where we are,

Only then can we completely transcend the mortal world. Cultivating immortals and attaining Taoism seems illusory, but in my opinion, as long as we reach our state of mind, we will become immortals and attain Taoism!"

Taoist Master Ziyou is worthy of being a monk, and his words are extremely beneficial and influential. King Heng just said that he was full of civil affairs and had no time to practice Taoism, but he suddenly told so many truths, and it was well-founded, which made people convinced.

Especially in the last passage, as a Taoist priest, he actually said that cultivating immortals and attaining Taoism is all empty. The so-called cultivating immortals and attaining Taoism is just a kind of transcendence in the state of mind. This extraordinary insight and courage made Zhou Chong unable to help but be

For praise.

"'Intellectual knowledge is all about knowledge, and understanding human feelings is about articles', Zhou, as a person in the secular world, cannot transcend the secular world like a Taoist priest. He just hopes to understand more knowledge and articles in the secular world, so as not to be hurt in this secular world.

Forget it!" Zhou Chong was also inspired at this time, and also quoted a couplet from Dream of the Red Chamber.

"Okay! What a 'Learn knowledge in the world, and understanding human feelings is article'!" Hearing Zhou Chong's words, King Heng immediately praised him, and at the same time he admired Zhou Chong's literary talent even more.

"The Master Wuliang Tianzun, Master Zhou is indeed extraordinary. These two sentences really tell the worldly ways. I really admire you!" Taoist Zi You also bowed to Zhou Chong at this time.

Zhou Chong hurriedly humbled a few words about the praises of Zhu Youqing and Taoist Master Ziyou. At this time, Zhu Youqing might also feel that the topic is a bit heavy, so he began to move to other places, such as the tofu banquet in front of him, which is a very good thing. It was a good topic of conversation, and Taoist Ziyou was also very familiar with tofu feasts, so he began to introduce the recipes to Zhou Chong and others.

"Please look at this Sanmei tofu dish is the essence of our Taishan tofu banquet. The reason why it is called Sanmei is because the whole dish uses three specialties from our Taishan, that is, tofu, cabbage and water. Don't Its ingredients are very simple and the production process is not complicated, but it is extremely delicious. You will know after tasting it!" Master Ziyou pointed to the dish in the middle of the tofu feast and introduced it, and this dish was three beauties. Tofu looks very much like tofu boiled with cabbage, but it is placed in the middle. From this we can see that this Sanmei tofu is definitely not ordinary.

Zhou Chong had also heard of the famous Sanmei tofu before. He stretched out his chopsticks and picked up a piece of tofu and tasted it. He found that the tofu was extremely soft and smooth, and it was also very delicious. It was indeed worthy of being Taishan's signature dish. If Zhou Chong hadn't known it Only if he has MSG in his hands, I'm afraid he really thinks that MSG is also added to this dish. However, although this Sanmei tofu is delicious, it uses chicken oil and milk soup to enhance the flavor. Compared with the umami flavor of MSG, There is still a considerable gap.

Just as Zhou Chong had just tasted this three-beautiful tofu, he happened to see Wangcai, who had just left, come in, and nodded slightly to him. Zhou Chong immediately smiled at Zhu Youqing and Taoist Master Ziyou: "Your Highness, Taoist priest, I have heard of the name of Taishan tofu banquet. After tasting it yesterday and today, I feel it is indeed very delicious. However, my cook also cooks a good dish, and her best dish is called Zhenzhu Jade soup is actually a soup made by peeling the tofu into balls and green leaves of cabbage. This soup is the same as Sanmei tofu. The ingredients are very simple, but the taste is extremely delicious. I have already made the cook just now. Now, I’ll give it to you for your taste. What’s the difference between it and Sanmei Tofu?”

Zhou Chong said and waved his hand. A maid came in outside immediately with a tray. There was a so-called "Pearl Jade Soup" on the tray. Although this bowl of soup was made by Aunt Luo, it was actually tofu and cabbage soup, and it didn't. I used a particularly sophisticated cooking technique, but after the soup was finished, I added some MSG to improve the freshness.

Seeing that Zhou Chong had not discussed with them in advance, he arranged for his own cook to cook a dish without authorization. This made Taoist Ziyou stunned. After all, no matter what, he was also the owner of the place. Now he was holding a banquet. It was a bit impolite for him, as the host.

Although he felt a little uncomfortable, Taoist Zi You was well-educated, so he did not reveal it. King Heng next to him also looked at Zhou Chong with some confusion. Although he had not known Zhou Chong for a long time, he knew him very well Zhou Chong knew that the young admiral in front of him had always been very thoughtful in thinking about things, so he should not be rude in such trivial matters?

Zhou Chong didn't seem to see the expressions of Taoist Zhu Youqing and Ziyou. After the maid put the soup on the table, he immediately greeted enthusiastically: "Your Highness and Taoist Master, try it quickly, this dish is It's very delicious. I bet you will definitely praise it after you taste it!"

Seeing Zhou Chong let them taste so enthusiastically, Zhu Youqing and Taoist Master Ziyou were not willing to refuse. He picked up a spoon and scooped up a piece of tofu, blew the heat and put it in his mouth, and then tasted it carefully. As a result, the tofu was just in the mouth. , their tongues felt an unprecedented freshness. This freshness cannot be expressed in words, but it can be felt clearly, which is really a rare enjoyment.

"This... this is so delicious. Wenda, your cook's skills are amazing. I have never eaten such delicious dishes before!" King Heng Zhu Youqing was the first to wake up from shock and praised him. , He was born in the Imperial House and asked himself what kind of delicious dishes he had tasted, but this was the first time he had such delicious dishes.

"Strange, the ingredients used in this soup are the same as Sanmei tofu, and the cooking method is not surprising. There is no chicken soup or other things added to it to enhance the flavor, but it is surprisingly delicious. This... this is really unreasonable!" Taoist Master Ziyou asked with confusion when he twisted his beard with his hands on his face. The most famous thing in their temple is the tofu feast, so he is also very knowledgeable about dishes such as tofu, so he felt this dish as soon as he tasted it. Something was wrong with the food.

"Haha, I didn't expect that Master Ziyou had some research on the dishes. To be honest, the cooking method of this dish is indeed very ordinary, and even the ingredients are taken from the kitchen in the temple. The reason why this dish is so It's delicious, it's actually because of this!" Zhou Chong said as he took out a small porcelain bottle from his arms and placed it on the table, and then looked at Zhu Youqing and Taoist Master Zi You with a proud look on his face.

Hearing Zhou Chong's words, Zhu Youqing and Taoist Priest Zi You all focused their eyes on the porcelain bottle on the table. They saw that the porcelain bottle was as big as a baby's fist. Although it was exquisitely made, it was not surprising, but it was stuck on the belly of the porcelain bottle. A note with the words "MSG" written on it.

"This... what is this MSG?" Zhu Youqing asked in surprise at this time. Taoist Zi You next to him was as confused as he was, and he couldn't figure out what Zhou Chong wanted to do?

"Your Highness, let me keep it a secret first. You will know what this MSG is later!" Zhou Chong said with a mysterious face.
