Chapter 575 [Ying Cry]
It seems that as Fang Chang’s apprentice, Fu Qi and his master are very compatible in terms of cooking skills.
Although it is just a simple porridge with meat and vegetables and shredded pickled vegetables, the brown minced meat in the porridge is chewy and fragrant, and the emerald green vegetable leaves are refreshing. Light salt taste, very delicious to drink. The shredded pickled vegetables are also cut into pieces as thin as bean sprouts, and neatly mixed with a few drops of sesame oil. Put it on the porridge and drink it, it is crispy, raw and delicious.
The master and apprentice ate very happily.
Fu Qi also said: “Master, I am going to spend some days and go down the mountain to buy a few chickens, ducks and geese to raise, especially ducks and geese. The water in this mountain stream should be very suitable for stocking, and there will be eggs to eat in the morning .”
Fang Chang held a piece of pickled cabbage and said with a smile: “This idea is good. I think there are a lot of fish and shrimps in this stream, and the grass is also very lush. Ducks and geese are not difficult to raise, but we must be careful of foxes and weasels stealing eggs. Teacher There is not much water in the mountain field, so I only got a few chickens and put them in the woods, and they all ate well.”
After the two of them finished their meal, Fu Qi asked Fang Zhang to drink tea first, then went to wash the dishes in the nearby water, and then came back to chat with the master.
It’s been a long time since I saw him. Fu Qi misses his master so much that he can’t finish talking.
He told Fang Chang in detail how he came here.
Since leaving the village where he was originally staying, Fu Qi has followed the guidance of spiritual perception and traveled westward, walking many roads. This farming cow mountain was the first mountain he encountered, so Fu Qi settled here. After looking around, I felt that this mountain stream felt the most comfortable, so I settled here.
When he entered the mountain, he bought an ax, saw, and nail rope. After practicing cultivation, he was strong and strong. With the help of materials from the mountain, Fu Qi quickly chose a high place to build several huts, that is, the one on the big rock next to him. Then he embarked on the road of transforming this mountain stream while practicing.
First, clear out a piece of flat ground, put a homemade wooden pile stool, and use a few stones to support the plank as a table, then use a few long logs to build a bridge on the water, adjust the position of some plants, and plan to pave the road The path leads outside. Then, he still felt that the residence was a bit shabby, so he went outside the mountain to buy materials, cut wood and quarried stones to build a loft on the mountain wall, and now only paint and paint are left.
Speaking of the excitement, Fu Qi stood up and pointed outside to Fang Chang:
“Master, in this mountain stream, I’m going to clean up the middle part to open up the view. Then, I’ll find some flowers and trees from Gengniu Mountain to decorate. I’m going to open a few fields there and plant some herbs and vegetables. Here, I cut off the place between two big rocks and raised the water level to make a small pond; on the cliff here, after I build this attic, I will dig some corridors on the mountain wall and make it into a legend. The appearance in the blessed land…”
Fang Chang followed the line of sight of his apprentice and looked at the mountain stream outside the open glass window. He saw stones stacked on top of each other like steps. bead curtain. The aquatic plants in the stream stand upright one by one, among the dense vegetation on both sides, they look more energetic and upright.
Fish and shrimp swim in the clear water, some forage for food, and some go upstream to the source. In spring, the oriole has already begun to sing. Although it is not as cheerful as when the wheat is ripe and the mulberries are full of trees, it is also mellow and pleasant to listen to.
Fu Qi spoke happily, talking endlessly about his vision for this dojo. Fang Chang was very pleased to hear it, but he still paid more attention to his apprentice’s practice, so he praised first and then asked:
“These are all good. You have the demeanor of a teacher. When you have time, you can go to Xianqiya to find me and see how I reformed there. Maybe you can use it for reference.
“Don’t forget to practice and understand when doing these things. You must know that the way of nature is not only in the mountains and rivers, but also in the plants and trees in the world, and in the words and deeds of yourself and others.”
Fu Qi stood up and saluted, and solemnly wrote down the teaching.
Then, he told Fang Chang the name of this small cliff building: “Master, look at the pavilion I built, and the mountain stream in front of me. They haven’t been named yet. There are no people in the mountain, so there is only the general name of Gengniu Mountain.” I have thought about it and read some books, but I am not satisfied. Master, you are well-informed and knowledgeable, can you give me a name for this place?”
“Yi Er at this time.” Fang Chang smiled, then he stood up and walked to the window, looked at the mountain stream with his eyes, thought for a while, turned around and said to Fu Qi: “Look, do you want to call Yingti?” Jian, if you don’t like it, then I’ll think of another one.”
“I like it! I like it very much, thank you master for giving me the name. From now on, this place will be called Yingtijian.” Fu Qi was very happy, and then said: “Then master, can you give this attic another name?”
“How about Ting Yu Pavilion? Although it is a bit simple, the artistic conception is not bad.” Fang Chang said after a little thought.
“Master’s name must be good. I will make a small plaque in a few days and hang this name in the middle of the high place.” Fu Qi repeatedly nodded and wrote down the name.
The two chatted for a while, and Fang Chang said to his apprentice: “I don’t think your farm is rich in minerals, and it is difficult to find them for a while. Materials are indispensable for building houses. I brought a lot of things, and I will give them to you later. You keep some gold and silver ingots and various metals, I think you should need them.”
As he spoke, Fang Chang pulled the backpack behind him and began to take things out for his apprentice.
The green cloth-wrapped backpack looks the same as it did back then, but the items inside have accumulated a huge amount. In addition to the things he collected from his travels all over the world, Fang Chang also put some of the materials he worked and produced on the Xianqi Cliff in it.
“These dozens of books are with you. Reading them at leisure can relieve boredom, and you can learn a lot, and you can travel thousands of miles without leaving your home…By the way, I will give you a bookshelf, and I can help you decorate this empty pavilion.”
“My Yunzhong Mountain produces good jade, but it’s hard to find. These few pieces of jade are saved after I usually come across them. You put them away. The smallest piece has the most aura and can be used as a jade pillow. You can turn the rest into jade boxes, bottles, and books, depending on what you need in the future.”
“These elixirs are refined by the teacher, and there are gifts from other fellow Taoists. You keep them well, and they may come in handy at any time. Be prepared.”
“The fields here have not yet been reclaimed, and it is always troublesome to buy food. I will give you a few bags of corn noodles. I harvested them from the fields on Xianqi Cliff. It is enough for you to eat for a year or so. And these bacon Cured chicken and salted fish are durable. By the way, here are some crates for you. They are crystals formed from salt in the salt mine. They are very pure, but they must be ground into powder before use.”
Thank you Xue Yechen, Herring and Red Carp
