Volume 1: Spring in Wulong Town Chapter 141: Shut up and open your legs
Facts have proved that letting Xu Qingyan run errands is definitely the right choice!
The door of Bailianfang was closed at night.
Xu Qingyan, however, climbed over the wall and went in directly... to deliver a midnight snack.
Anyway, Tang Zheng just asked him to deliver a takeaway, so why would he think of stipulating how he should deliver it?
As a result, all the twenty or so people in Bailianfang were alarmed by him.
"It's so late, what are you doing here?" Although Mo Feng recognized Xu Qingyan, he definitely did not have a good tone towards someone who broke into Bailianfang in the middle of the night.
"Heh..." Xu Qingyan looked at the craftsmen, raised his eyebrows, and put down all the food baskets in his hands.
Xu Qingyan opened the food boxes in the lunch basket one by one, and immediately, the aroma of ten-flavor whole fish wafted in the air.
Mo Feng frowned: "This is... sent to us to eat?"
Xu Qingyan bowed and said, "I was entrusted by Master Tang Zheng to deliver the Hanjiang Ten Flavor Fish to Bailianfang."
"Then why did you climb over the wall?" Mo Feng asked.
"Because the door is not open." Xu Qingyan replied.
"Oh." Mo Feng and the others all nodded without delaying for even a second.
If you knock on the door, explain that you're there to deliver the fish soup, and then wait for them to notify you, consider whether opening the door in the middle of the night is a violation of the rules, etc., the fish soup will probably be cold.
Xu Qingyan's approach is definitely the most suitable for Bailianfang.
Bai Lian Fang's brain circuitry did not see any problem with the logical sequence of delivering fish soup - but the door was closed - so he would climb over the wall to come in.
"Food... I smell food..." A chubby figure rushed out from the backyard of Bailianfang.
As soon as Mo Feng and the others saw Luo Fei, they quickly made way for him.
Lu Huang, who was behind Luo Fei, followed him out with a helpless smile on his face.
"Hiss..." Luo Fei sniffed fiercely, "Demon beast! A monster above two stars!"
"Yes, the Hanjiang Sawtooth Sturgeon." Xu Qingyan nodded as he stood aside.
"Hurry, hurry, hurry." Luo Fei picked up a box and handed it to Lu Huang, "Uncle Lu, eat it while it's hot! Tsk tsk tsk tsk. There are people in Wulong Town who can make such delicious food, and you didn't tell me earlier!"
Lu Huang took the fish handed to him by Tifei and had no idea what to say.
After Luo Fei handed a bowl to Lu Huang, he was about to pick up a bowl to eat...
As a result , Xu Qingyan's hand quickly reached out to him, and just when he was about to take the first sip of soup, the bowl was taken away.
Luo Fei took a gulp of air.
And his bowl was handed to Mo Feng by Xu Qingyan.
"What are you doing?" Luo Fei was angry.
“I’m sorry.” Xu Qingyan forced out a smile that was as awkward as a goldfish’s. “Mr. Tang has given instructions… the Cold River Ten Flavor Fish is presented to Master Lu Huang, Master Mo Feng, and Master Li…”
Xu Qingyan called out the name of every craftsman in Bailian Workshop in one breath.
But Luo Fei's name was not mentioned.
Luo Fei listened in a daze for a long time, then licked his tongue and shouted angrily: "Tang Zheng? The fish he cooked?"
"Yes." Xu Qingyan nodded.
"Why don't you give me food? Just because I gave him a chance to challenge me? How can a grown man be so petty?"
"No." Xu Qingyan shook his head. "Mr. Tang is doing this for your own good. He asked me to bring you a message..."
"Speak!" Luo Fei looked at the fragrant fish soup.
"Mr. Tang said that losing weight is not difficult. Here are six words for you: Shut up and open your legs!"
Lu Huang nodded thoughtfully: "It's really not difficult."
Mo Feng also nodded: "Only six words. Not complicated!"
…
Tang Zheng's fish banquet fed everyone in Tangjiabao.
When the maids carried the pots away, they were extremely careful, for fear of damaging the expensive foundry furnaces that contained the pots.
Tang Zheng continued to go deeper into the chaotic tide of star power.
And this time, he went in directly with the casting furnace!
one day……
Two days...
Before we knew it, there were only three days left before the public casting competition between Tang Zheng and Luo Fei.
Wufeng Tavern was once again in high demand.
Those who buy and sell invitation cards as scalpers and those who make fake invitation cards have become active again.
And because this was not just a banquet but also a fight, a fight must have a winner and a loser, so all the evildoers in Wulong Town who set up gambling and put up stakes became active.
Several villages near Wulong Town, residents of several nearby towns, as well as elders and disciples from the two sects on Wuqing Mountain and Longding Mountain all came to Wulong Town.
Almost every inn was full.
Even those who are not qualified to enter Wufeng Tavern are unwilling to miss the various gambling games in Wulong Town.
And Tang Zheng's design drawings finally surfaced...
Almost everyone in Tangjiabao was present, gathered in Tang Zheng's laboratory, and looked at a drawing that he had hung high.
Then, everyone looked weird.
"A star-detecting plate?" Tang Xiaotang looked at the blueprint, looking at it from front to back, for an unknown period of time. "But, the engraving on the star-detecting plate is not like this... and what is that horizontal line in the middle..."
"No, this is not a star-gazing plate. It's just an ordinary plate for food. Could that horizontal thing be chopsticks?"
"But there was only one chopstick, and it was only half the length of the plate."
Tang Zheng's face became darker and darker as he listened to their comments. Finally, he just kicked them all out!
He collected countless data and carefully designed this thing, but no one understood it...
Being in a different world is so sad!
"Wait, wait a minute, Master..." Tang Xiaotang smiled and leaned on the door frame, "Don't chase me away yet, there's something I haven't told you yet..."
"Then tell me quickly!" The next sentence Tang Zheng was about to say was, "Get out of here quickly."
A bunch of little bastards!
It would be bad enough if he didn't know the value of the product, but he also laughed at his design drawings.
However, Tang Xiaotang's words made him swallow the next sentence.
Tang Xiaotang said, "Yesterday, a cook found a dagger in the pot while washing it... I saw it and it looked so much like the [Unsheathed] that Master accidentally dropped into the cold pond when he was competing in Wuqing Mountain."
"No sheath? How is that possible?" Tang Zheng remembered for sure that the gift [No Sheath] that Lu Huang gave him had fallen into the cold pond. Moreover, he had been waiting to hear any sound of water, but he didn't hear anything, which showed how deep the cold pond was.
How could [Wu Sheath], who had already fallen into such a deep cold pond, suddenly return to Tangjiabao by magic?
Tang Zheng's mind raced: "Tell me, where did you see it?"
"It's in the pot, the pot you use to stew fish soup... The cook fished it out from the bottom of the pot when she was washing it." After Tang Xiaotang said that, she added: "The shape and everything is exactly the same as Wuqiao. It's just that... the color and material are a little different..."
"Oh?" Tang Zheng thought, could there be a replica without a sheath? He immediately tore off his drawing and put it away, saying, "Let's go and take a look."
The two of them walked all the way to the kitchen.
It's not dinner time and no one is busy in the kitchen.
And right next to the kitchen counter, a translucent silver dagger was lying there !
Although as Tang Xiaotang said, the color and material did not look like that of a dagger without a sheath, Tang was the owner of the dagger. He picked it up and waved it twice, and he knew that this dagger was without a sheath!
After hearing Tang Zheng confirm that this was Wushao, Tang Xiaotang was surprised: "How is it possible?"
How could a dagger that had fallen into an abyss appear out of nowhere in the kitchen of Tangjiabao?
Tang Zheng listened to Tang Xiaotang's exclamation, and his first reaction was that this was an excellent topic for some science and education drama!
First of all, there is an opening that is very attractive for ratings – why did the dagger that fell into the deep cold pond reappear out of thin air?
Then, there is a twist and turn process - Zhu Lu drops the dagger, the whole Tangjiabao feels sorry for it, and then he suddenly appears again, causing surprises...
Last but not least, it has an extremely ridiculous ending!
Tang Zheng replied to Xiao Tang: "Probably...it fell out from the intestines of that fish!"
The Cold River Sawtooth Sturgeon must have swallowed the dagger in the cold pond first, then swam downstream and was killed by Tang Zheng. In the end, the dagger in its intestines was stewed into a pot of ...
Tang Xiaotang was also stunned by this ridiculous thing: "Then...what should we do now?"
"Don't worry about that for now. After the fight with Luo Fei is over, I will study it carefully. I will see how the color and material of the sheathless blade changed..." Tang Zheng handed the dagger to Tang Xiaotang for safekeeping.
"Yeah." Tang Xiaotang nodded.
…
Three days is not really a slow time.
Before the young men of Tang Family Fort could debate clearly whether what Tang Zheng was going to cast was a serving plate or a jade pendant, the carriage of Bai Lian Fang had already stopped at the gate of Tang Family Fort!
Tang Xiaotang and the others basically didn't sleep last night.
Today's competition was an unprecedented on-site casting, and the opponents were from the Luo family of Bailianfang Star Hunter. Even if they trusted Tang Zheng, they couldn't avoid being nervous.
But Tang Zhengyi came out and saw that they all had dark circles under their eyes. He laughed energetically and said, "Oh, did you all go thieves last night?"
"..." All the disciples of Tangjiabao rolled their eyes at him.
"Master Luo Fei didn't go out to steal last night, did he?" Tang Zheng got on the Bailianfang carriage and smiled at Mo Feng again.
"You...you guys figure it out on the casting table!" Mo Feng's eyes tilted, and he really couldn't answer.
Because, Luo Fei also had the same dark circles under his eyes this morning as Tang Xiaotang and the others!
Tang Zheng narrowed his eyes, nodded and smiled: "That's right, let's see the truth on the casting table!"
Luo Fei and he are not mortal enemies.
However, he must win this fight, for the support of Tangjiabao, for the enlightenment of Ban Yiluo, and more importantly, for his own indispensable key material - the Fu Bi Shattered Stone!
Whether his fan dagger can smoothly replace parts as his star power increases in the future depends on the Fu Bi Shattered Star Stone in Luo Fei's hand!
