My cultivation is too warm

Chapter 229 Xu Mo: Jiejiejie (4000 more in the evening)

Xu Mo understood that making a bet with oneself was the so-called metaphysical superstition.

For example, in his previous life, he often told himself before going to bed that if he could get up and brush his teeth before 8 o'clock the next morning, he would have good luck at work today. If he happened to have good luck that day, it would really work. If he was unlucky, he would have to be scientific and try again next time.

But he had never seen anyone like Ye Laodao who was almost driving himself crazy.

The most important thing is that Ye Laodao actually abides by the rules he set.

Isn't it just a joke? It's outrageous that he took it seriously.

Now they need Ye Laodao to escort them to the Xianqing world, but he can't go out. What should they do?
Xu Mo was speechless thinking, but Daoist Zixiao seemed to be very effective in dealing with this kind of thing. After listening to Daoist Ye Laodao's explanation, he nodded and said calmly, "Okay, if you are afraid of snakes, just stay here."

After saying that, he called Xu Mo and others to go out of the house.

When Xu Mo and the others walked out of the attic door, they heard the indignant voice of Ye Laodao from behind them, "I've already told you, Laodao, I'm not afraid of snakes. I have pure blood. Why can't you understand? You keep slandering me. It's really despicable."

Facing the anger of Taoist Master Ye, Taoist Master Zixiao calmly walked out of the attic with a few people, completely ignoring his intentions.

After arriving outside the attic, Xu Mo looked at Zixiao Daozun with some surprise and asked, "Senior, don't you think Master's behavior is a little strange?"

Daoist Master Zixiao chuckled, shook his head, and replied, "What's so strange about this? Your master was like this before he attained enlightenment. We think he's practicing, but he thinks he's just playing."

He stared at the glittering golden attic with a profound expression, and added, "As to whether he is practicing or playing, no one can tell, not even he himself."

Then, as if he suddenly thought of something, a funny expression crossed his face as he continued, "Anyway, according to your fellow sect members, he was just this despicable during the five thousand years he was still a mortal. No one around him could stand him. He was despised by everyone, and people avoided him wherever he went. They said he was too self-indulgent, had no self-awareness, no sense of boundaries, and was incredibly narcissistic."

"Ah, this..." Xu Mo lowered his head slightly when he heard this, and suddenly felt a little admiration for Taoist Master Ye. From the short words of Taoist Master Zixiao, although he didn't know Taoist Master Ye's specific past, but as a mortal, he could make his fellow disciples in the sect hide when they saw him. This was also a kind of ability.

You have to know that when I was in the menial service yard, I used several aliases and didn't dare to talk to anyone.

Then he asked curiously, "By the way, is my master really afraid of snakes?"

It was understandable that he was afraid of snakes before. After all, he was afraid of them in his previous life and had been scared many times. It left a deep impression on him and he was unable to react for a while. What he was afraid of was not being bitten by the snake, but the long shape of the snake. Moreover, after realizing that he was a monk, he was no longer afraid.

But he is one of the strongest people in the ancient world, and he is actually afraid. This is a bit incomprehensible.

Facing Xu Mo's question, Zixiao Daozun chuckled and nodded, saying, "This is not a rumor. He is really afraid of snakes. He is extremely afraid of them."

Xu Mo felt a little embarrassed, it was actually true.

Daoist Master Zixiao looked at Xu Mo's expression and explained with a smile, "Your master is quite special. It can be said that he has no sense of reality for his identity as a cultivator and is completely unaware of the changes in his status."

"Ah, this..." Xu Mo thought about it carefully and found that it was true. Taoist Ye gave people the feeling of a beggar who suddenly won hundreds of millions. He didn't know whether he was dreaming or real. Sometimes he looked like a senior and sometimes like a lowly beggar.

He had inquired about Ye Laodao's information before. After his status was improved, Ye Laodao's information was no longer a secret. He knew that he had been practicing for five thousand years without being able to enter the door, and then suddenly realized the truth and reached the Nine Heavens and Seven Realms in one day.

In the ancient history, only Ye Laodao has experienced this bizarre path to enlightenment.

So for Cang Gu, Ye Laodao has always been the special one.

Then he asked curiously, "This should be his weakness, right? Shouldn't we help him hide it? Why are you still..."

Daoist Master Zixiao laughed heartily at his expression. "It's not that no one has tried to scare him by releasing snakes during battle, but the end result is that the worlds that tried to scare him have all vanished into the long river of history."

He sighed and shook his head. "The reason he spread the word that he's afraid of snakes is because he's worried someone might play with a snake in front of him. If he closes his eyes and attacks indiscriminately, the consequences could be very serious."

Xu Mo suddenly understood what was going on after hearing this. So that's how it was. That's right, just like the last time he was scared, his subconscious reaction was the same. Didn't Elder Ouyang's spiritual field suffer at that time?

With Ye Laodao's strength, if he had made the same reaction, the world would have been in trouble.

At this time, Zixiao Daozun continued to add, "Although your master is afraid of snakes, in fact, he has seen snakes very rarely since he was a child. It can be said that if no one deliberately makes trouble, he basically won't see a snake."

"Huh?" Xu Mo was slightly stunned when he heard that.

Daoist Master Zixiao raised his head with a complicated look and sighed, "As the saying goes, good fortune is bestowed upon those who are blessed by heaven. This refers to people like your master. He can completely avoid disasters and dangers without even realizing it. He's a very enviable person."

Hearing this, Xu Mo nodded thoughtfully, and then asked: "So our current situation is the same?"

Daoist Master Zixiao gave him an appreciative look and said, "That's right. Since your master doesn't want to go out, it means it's not the right day for us to return to the Xianqing World. Otherwise, if we force our way through, it might not go smoothly."

It turned out to be like this. No wonder Taoist Zixiao left so abruptly just now. He thought that the other party came out to take Taoist Ye's house away with him, and when they came back, they could just let Taoist Ye send them back.

After Xu Mo understood Daoist Master Zixiao's intention, he thought for a moment and then said to Daoist Master Yunnian and Daoist Master Hanyi, "Since that's the case, why don't you two seniors stay at my Wuyou Peak for a few days? I happen to have a skilled spiritual chef at my Wuyou Peak..."

At this point, he suddenly paused and shook his head. "No, I'll cook for you two seniors myself. When my father was alive, he always said that if he had the chance to meet people from Deacon Fang's hometown, he wanted to personally cook a delicious meal for you as a token of his appreciation."

He was not lying. After hearing Deacon Fang say that people in his hometown also loved to indulge in delicious food, he thought that when he saw them in the future, he would cook for them himself.

As for the reason for doing this, it was to make up for the regret of not being able to cook for Deacon Fang during the time when he was researching grafting.

When he first went to see Elder Ouyang, he would often go there to cook for Deacon Fang when he had free time. But after he started studying grafting, he went there less frequently, especially during the more than ten years when success was almost approaching, he basically never went there.

That period was Deacon Fang's last days, and I was not able to make him a delicious meal, which was really a pity.

Now he finally met Deacon Fang's descendants, among whom Taoist Hanyi was Deacon Fang's sister, so he wanted to cook a delicious meal for them.

He felt that his feelings should not be rejected, but as soon as he finished speaking, Taoist Han Yi shook his head and refused, "No, your family has done me a favor, you should let me cook a delicious meal for you."

Taoist Yun Nian on the side also nodded and agreed: "That's right, how could the people in my Xianqing world let others cook? You guys should just take a rest, let us do it." Taoist Yun Nian thought to himself that he had finally met Lin Miaoqing, so he must take good care of her, starting with food. He would make all kinds of delicious food for Lin Miaoqing every day in the next few days.

Xu Mo immediately became unhappy when he heard what these two people said. Not to mention that these two people were guests and seniors, he was doing this to fulfill a wish. How could he agree to let them cook?

So he decisively shook his head and rejected their proposal, insisting on his own idea and said, "You two seniors are guests. How can you let guests cook for us? Let me do it."

Taoist Han Yi frowned. He was repaying his benefactor, so how could he possibly let him cook for him? So he decisively refused, "I'm the elder, and it's my responsibility to take care of you."

"It's even more impolite to ask elders to cook."

"But since the elders have spoken personally, we should listen to them."

"That depends on what the elders say. If something makes the elders suffer, we should decisively refuse it."

Taoist Han Yi became anxious when he saw that he could not convince Xu Mo, "I am a strong cultivator, listen to me."

Xu Mo was choked when he heard this. "Okay, okay, you're going to try this on me, right?" "In that case, don't blame me for being unethical."

So he pulled Lin Miaoqing aside and said, "Senior Sister, what do you think? Should we cook for the guests ourselves?"

Seeing Xu Mo asking Lin Miaoqing, Daoist Yun Nian beside him suddenly became anxious. He quickly said, "Since you are so thoughtful, let's not argue. How about we both go to the kitchen and make a meal for each other?"

Xu Mo was stunned when he heard this. How could this be possible? However, it seemed that it was not impossible. After all, he just wanted to cook for Han Yi Dao Zun, the younger sister of Deacon Fang.

Then he looked at Taoist Han Yi, who also persisted.

When Taoist Master Han Yi heard the proposal, she frowned and thought for a moment, then nodded in agreement. After all, she just wanted to cook for the benefactor who accompanied her brother during his last moments and took care of his funeral affairs.

So the proposal was finalized.

Xu Mo originally thought that the issue of who would cook was settled, but he didn't expect that an accident would happen again as soon as he arrived at the kitchen of Wuyou Peak.

The reason is that Ou Fenjin disagrees.

As the royal chef of Wuyou Peak, it absolutely does not allow others to cook in front of it, as that would be an insult to it.

Cooking for yourself, doesn't that mean that Ou Fenjin's cooking is bad? It will never agree to this, and it insists that Daoist Yun Nian and the others must taste the food it cooks and say it's not tasty before it agrees.

Ou Fenjin was extremely determined. Even after learning that Daoist Master Yun Nian and Daoist Master Han Yi were powerful Daoists, he still refused to give in.

"I am your master." This was the only trick Xu Mo could use at this time.

After hearing this, Ou Fenjin remained unwavering and passionately declared, "For my cooking skills, I would rather die than live." "Food is the only thing in this world that cannot be wasted. I, Ou Fenjin, will never admit defeat."

Seeing Ou Fenjin's attitude, Daoist Master Yun Nian suddenly laughed out loud, "It seems that you are very confident in your cooking skills. Coincidentally, the people in my Xianqing World are also very confident in their cooking skills. In that case, let's have a competition."

Xu Mo was stunned. He couldn't understand why his plan of just cooking a meal for Taoist Master Han Yi turned into a cooking competition?
However, Taoist Zixiao, who had been watching the fun from the side, was also happy about this matter. He excitedly took out the communication jade talisman and called all his friends.

Then, not long after, many big guys appeared in Wuyou Peak, including dozens of powerful Daoists, including Xuancang Daoist Master, the leader of Canggu Dao League, and Xuanyi Daoist Master, the leader of Tianxuan Sect.

Of course, the ones who were even happier were the disciples of Wuyou Peak, because they were also the referees of this competition.

At this moment, many disciples in Wuyou Peak excitedly discussed, "I heard that the Daozun will personally cook for us this time, right?"

"It's true. I never thought that one day I would have the good fortune to eat a meal personally cooked by a Dao Zun. I can brag about it when I go out."

"I also understand the cause and process of this incident. I can only say that Uncle Ou is awe-inspiring. He didn't even flinch in the face of a powerful Daoist master."

"Isn't that natural? To be honest, although I'm also looking forward to the delicious food cooked by the Dao Zun, as for the result of the competition, I think Uncle Ou will definitely win. I don't believe that there is anyone in the world who can cook better than Uncle Ou."

"I think so too."

All the disciples of Wuyou Peak basically thought so. After all, they had been eating the delicious food made by Ou Fenjin, so they were naturally very confident in his cooking skills.

Everyone basically agreed that Ou Fenjin would win this cooking competition.

Xu Mo, who heard the discussion among the disciples, narrowed his eyes and smiled meaningfully.

I thought to myself, young disciples, you are still too young. When you taste the cooking of this peak master, you will know who is the real chef.

Xu Mo is very confident about his cooking skills. It is a skill from his hometown and he doesn't think anyone can be better than him in this field.

He was even more surprised that the disciples only discussed Ou Fenjin and Yun Nian Daozun and ignored him.

In this way, wouldn't I be able to put on a great show of slapping someone in the face?

Despite being ignored and pessimistic by everyone, he made a comeback and won first place.

Xu Moke was very familiar with this kind of scene, but he never expected that such a thing would happen to him.

It's really great.

Xu Mo's mouth curled up, hehe, at this moment, he was extremely looking forward to the scene of the results of the cooking competition.
