deuteragonist.org Fantasy Novel Chapter 64: Eating Fish and Drinking Tea
On the lakeside of Hulan.
Looking at the somewhat nervous Ning Que, Li Longqing couldn't help but find it amusing. He then said to Ning Que, "Ning Que, what nonsense are you talking about again?"
大师兄一边切鱼片一边说道:“无妨,小师侄以前吃过这道菜?不过却不叫鱼生,因为这道菜主要是由活鱼切片做成,所以夫子为这道菜取名为生鱼片”大师兄的刀法极好,一片片鱼肉切得薄如蝉翼,在置于冰块之上显得晶莹剔透,就是切的有点慢。
After waiting for a while, the Senior Brother finished cutting the fish and prepared the sauce. Then, he started eating.
"It's so delicious!" Ning Que picked up a slice of raw fish, dipped it in the slightly spicy sauce, and said with satisfaction. Translated content: "After waiting for a while, the Senior Brother finished cutting the fish and prepared the sauce. Then, he started eating. "It's so delicious!" Ning Que picked up a slice of raw fish, dipped it in the slightly spicy sauce, and said with satisfaction."
Li Longqing gave Mo Shanshan a slice, and then he ate a slice himself. He couldn't help but exclaim, "Senior Brother was right, this fish meat is indeed incredibly delicious." Translated: "Li Longqing gave Mo Shanshan a slice, and then ate a slice himself. He couldn't help but exclaim, 'Senior Brother was right, this fish meat is indeed incredibly delicious'."
Mo Shanshan finished eating and also gave a five-star review. Then Li Longqing continued, "Hmm, this fish is the best I've ever had."
Ning Que took a piece and picked up another piece. Looking at the thinly sliced fish, he couldn't help but sigh, "I also use a knife, but the way Master Bo controls the knife is completely different. He can cut the fish into such thin slices."
Li Manman smiled and said, "Little nephew, as long as you calm down and take your time, you can also slice the fish like this." As he spoke, the eldest senior brother also picked up a piece of raw fish and put it in his mouth. After finishing it, he said, "Compared to Guiyu and Mudan fish from Hot Sea, it is still slightly inferior. Unfortunately, there are not many Mudan fish left in Hot Sea. They must be saved for our master. Otherwise, I will go and catch one."
Li Longqing chuckled in response, "The Confucius is the strongest person in the world yet also the biggest foodie."
"Rehai is such a cold place where grass doesn't even grow. It's a sparsely populated area. Senior Master, could it be that the Confucius himself has been dining on the peony fish of Rehai, which is why their numbers have become so scarce?" Ning Que had a bold thought and slowly asked Li.
"That's not the case. The Master would only go fishing for one or two fat and delicious Pomfret fish in the prime time when they are in abundance in Hot Sea. Although the place is sparsely populated, there will always be people going there," Li slowly picked up a slice of raw fish and ate it.
And he continued, "I heard Master say that there were two people who lived there for a while, and those two were completely different from Master. Master said that those two fellows were as timid as mice, afraid of starving to death. They would catch a lot of peony fish to eat every day. As a result, after they stayed in Atami for a while, the number of peony fish in Atami decreased significantly. Therefore, Master was very angry and wanted to teach them a lesson, but couldn't find them."
“酒徒和屠夫,这两个人……”李隆庆一边吃生鱼片一边听大师兄说话,心中说道。
……
就在李隆庆等人吃鱼说起夫子时,夫子则来到了偏远小国的一个小镇上,在他面前有一个酒鬼和一个屠夫。
Master said, "You both heard what my eldest disciple said. You two rascals actually ate most of the peony fish that I like. I am very angry. If you don't want to get beaten by me, you must help me with something." Please let me know if there's anything else I can assist you with!
Before Confucius even had a chance to tell the drunkard and the butcher what to do, their heads were shaking like tambourines. In unison, they exclaimed, "
I am just a drunkard, I don't want to turn into a real ghost."
"I'm just a butcher. I don't want to become meat on the chopping board."
"Two pieces of rotten meat." Confucius was speechless about these two cowardly cowards who couldn't even handle basic tasks. He relaxed his clenched fist, and the drunkard and the butcher instantly let out a sigh of relief.
……
After finishing the sashimi, Ning Que took out a pack of royal tea that he had obtained from Teacher Yanse's belongings to get rid of the fishy smell in his mouth.
While drinking the tea, Ning Que took out the urn that puzzled him and asked, "Why did they all want to snatch this urn from me just now? Does Liansheng's ashes have any special significance?"
“这是莲生的骨灰?”大师兄看着宁缺手上的盒子问道。
然后李隆庆便把他们在魔宗山门内的遭遇到莲生的经过告诉了大师兄。
"So it turns out Liansheng didn't die back then, he was locked inside the demonic sect's temple by Junior Martial Uncle Fan." Translated: "
"Perhaps they thought that what you have in the box is the script of the 'Bright Word Scroll' belonging to the Demon Sect," Li Longqing said.
"Exactly, I can sense a unique aura from the box, which made Xiahou mistakenly believe that it contained the lost 'Bright Word Scroll' of the Demon Sect. Xiahou wanted to snatch it and take a look. Since Xiahou made a move, Ye Su naturally also believed that the box contained the 'Bright Word Scroll' lost by the Taoist Sect," Li analyzed slowly.
Later, he continued, "The heavenly book doesn't matter, what matters is that the junior apprentice brother brought back the sword that the junior master left in the holy temple of the demon sect." "If I had known this earlier, I would have given them Lian Sheng's ashes so that the junior master wouldn't have to fight with that scoundrel brother, Ye Hongyu. It would have been so much better to let them fight each other." Ning Que regretted missing out on what would definitely have been an intense dogfight.

Senior Brother Daxiong, upon hearing Ningque mention Li Longqing's swordsmanship, said to Li Longqing, "Junior Brother, show us your sword."
With this thought in mind, Li Longqing's Peach Blossom Sword flew out from his waist and hovered in front of Li Moman. He said, "Senior Brother, I named this sword the Peach Blossom Sword."
大师兄将桃花剑拿在手中仔细端详了一会,便对李隆庆说道:“四师弟和六师弟打造这柄剑时很用心,小师弟觉得这柄剑如何”
Li Longqing is naturally very satisfied and he replied, "Very good, very suitable for me."
大师兄看着桃花剑剑身上的符纹,说道:“是很好,但是还可以更好”
"How can I improve? Please enlighten me, senior brother Li." Li Longqing humbly asked for guidance.
Li cautiously asked, "Junior brother, in your opinion, how is the power of the Flying Sword Technique manifested?"
Li Longqing pondered for a moment, then replied, "Second senior brother once told me that the power of the Flying Sword Technique is mainly manifested in the strength of the flying sword itself, the exquisite level of sword flight, the intensity of the connection between the sword bearer and the flying sword, and the strength of the sword bearer's telekinetic abilities."
“二师弟说的不错”李慢慢对君陌的话表示认可。随后又继续说道:“桃花剑本身足够坚硬了,你与桃花剑的感应也很强,念力则需要靠小师弟日常的修行,这三个方面都没有问题”
"And the intricacy of the flying sword can be improved. Just now, I saw that when you attacked Ye Su with a sword, the formation on the Peach Blossom Sword was activated, forming a whirlwind of celestial and earthly energy. It may seem very powerful, but it also prematurely exposes the trajectory of the Peach Blossom Sword's flight. Moreover, it burdens the Peach Blossom Sword, causing its flying speed to slow down, and naturally reducing the intricacy of its flight," the Senior Brother pointed out the problem with the Peach Blossom Sword accurately.
"Then, senior brother, how should we solve this problem?" Li Longqing continued to ask.
The senior brother already had a solution in mind and said, "After we return to the academy, I will help junior brother modify the talisman formation on the sword, so that the outward aura can be contained. This way, the flying speed of the Peach Blossom Sword will be even faster."
然后桃花剑便回到李隆庆的腰间,李隆庆行礼道:“谢大师兄”
看见李慢慢指点完李隆庆的桃花剑后,随后宁缺也拿出了自己的弓箭给大师兄过目,让大师兄帮忙提提意见,大师兄也很快找出了问题并提出整改方案。
After eating and drinking to their hearts' content, Li Longqing and his group set off on their way back to the academy.
During the journey, Li Longqing informed the senior disciple about the plan of inviting Shanshan to stay at the academy for a while. The senior disciple replied that the book-loving girl can stay for as long as she wants.
On the way back, with a joyful mood, riding a horse and humming a tune: "Let's accompany each other in the world, living freely and unrestrainedly, galloping on horseback, sharing the prosperity of life. Let's toast and sing..."
Li Longqing listened to Ning Que humming a tune and smiled without saying anything.
