I am bound by the sect

Chapter 126
In the back kitchen, a middle-aged man with a strong figure held a thick package in his strong palm, and handed it to Da Mao, showing a grateful expression, and said respectfully: "Gu has nothing to repay, and I would like to be filial to Brother Da Mao. It's a lot of work. This is a specialty of my family, and it's a little bit of Gu's kindness, please don't dislike it, big hairy brother."

This sturdy man, named Gu Chen, is a handyman in the back kitchen. Earlier, another back kitchen handyman came back from vacation and brought Gu Chen a letter, which was written by Gu Chen's wife, saying Yes, his son was seriously ill, and the money was insufficient. The hospital was unwilling to treat the illness, and hoped that he would go home soon.

Gu Chen immediately asked Da Mao for leave, and Da Mao agreed without hesitation, and gave Gu Chen a large amount of silver to solve his urgent need. Gu Chen was very grateful to Da Mao, took the silver and ran down the mountain.One day and one night later, Gu Chen arrived home. Fortunately, his son was seriously ill and had not yet reached the end of his life. He went to a famous clinic and paid enough money. After some treatment, his son was considered stable.

"Is your son fully recovered now?" Da Mao asked without taking the package.

"Thanks to Brother Da Mao, he has fully recovered and is now being carefully taken care of by his mother, so Gu can go up the mountain with peace of mind."

"That's good." Da Mao breathed a sigh of relief, and continued: "Brother Gu works hard in the back kitchen. He usually does such tiring tasks as cutting trees, chopping firewood, and carrying sundries. He has never complained at all. For Qing Lingzong's attitude, Da Mao sees it, I hope Brother Gu will not forget his original intention."

"Gu Mou is a practicing family son, and he knows some boxing skills. These rough jobs are nothing. Gu Mou's heart is for the Qing Lingzong, and it will never change. Brother Da Mao, please rest assured."

"Yeah." Da Mao nodded, took the package in Gu Chen's hand, opened it, and found some vegetables similar to radishes in it, but they were dry and wrinkled, and his body was blue and white, with splotches. The fragmented hairs didn't look like ginseng, they were all clean, as if they had been washed a long time ago, Gu Chen asked, "What is this thing?"

"It's pine sweet potatoes."

"Song sweet potato?" Da Mao had never heard of it.

"Pine sweet potatoes are a local specialty in my village. They don't need to be steamed or fried, they can be eaten raw."

"Eat it raw?" Da Mao was curious.

Gu Chen smiled slightly, picked up a loose sweet potato, stuffed it into his mouth without peeling the skin, bit off a piece, and chewed it with relish.

Da Mao saw that Gu Chen's food was delicious, so he also picked up a loose sweet potato, put it in his mouth, bit off a piece, and chewed it. As expected, it was very juicy, refreshing and sweet, so he couldn't help but eat a few more bites.

"By the way, I'll take two more, and share the rest with our kitchen staff, so that everyone can try something new."

"Okay, just listen to Brother Big Hair."

After Gu Chen finished speaking, he held the pine sweet potato and divided it among the people in the kitchen. Some people had heard Gu Chen say that the pine sweet potato was delicious, but some people had never heard of it. Everyone looked at the ugly appearance of the pine sweet potato. He took a bite with hesitation, and sure enough, everyone praised it for being delicious. At the same time, they thanked Da Mao and Gu Chen from time to time.

Just when everyone was eating happily, a ray of light fell on the courtyard of the back kitchen, and the ray of light shrank, revealing Li Tianchi's figure.

With such a big commotion, everyone naturally knew who was coming, and was about to go out to greet them, when they heard Li Tianchi's voice: "It's enough for Da Mao to come and see me, and the others can continue to do their own things, don't mess up."

After hearing the words, everyone returned to their posts. Da Mao wiped the juice from the corners of his mouth, put away the two loose sweet potatoes, walked out of the house, came to Li Tianchi, bowed respectfully, and said: "Greetings, Elder Li, Elder Li! Why are you looking for Da Mao?"

"Li Mou passed by here, and let you know by the way, the head wants to see you."

"Da Mao knows, I'm going to meet the head."

"Then Li will leave first." After Li Tianchi finished speaking, he was about to turn around, but he paused, looked at Da Mao, and said, "What's the smell, so sweet?"

"Oh, it's a loose sweet potato. It's delicious. Please taste it, Elder Li. You can eat this potato raw." Da Mao took out a loose sweet potato and handed it to Li Tianchi.

Da Mao originally ate one and took two. These two were supposed to be given to his grandfather, but Li Tianchi smelled the smell, so Da Mao simply gave Li Tianchi one.

"I thought it was some kind of spiritual food, but I didn't expect it to be the smell of mortal things." Li Tianchi took a pine sweet potato, looked at it for a while, showing disdain, and put the pine sweet potato in the storage bag like an understatement. , Said: "You go to see the head quickly, don't make him wait too long."

"Yes." Da Mao bowed, turned and left quickly.

After seeing Da Mao leave, Li Tianchi's figure moved, turned into an afterimage, flew away from the back kitchen, and came to a deserted tree-lined path. His consciousness spread, and after confirming that there was nothing abnormal around him, he took out the pine sweet potato , put it in his mouth, took a bite, and started to chew, his expression was startled, secretly thought delicious, holding the pine sweet potato with both hands, he gnawed wildly, and within five mouthfuls, he ate up the pine sweet potato.

"Before I became a monk, I had heard of pine sweet potatoes, but I had never seen them or eaten them. I tasted them today, and I really couldn't get enough of them." Li Tianchi exhaled deeply, his expression regained his majesty. , as if nothing had happened, continue to walk forward.

Da Mao came to the entrance of Fang Ming's cave, but before he could speak, Fang Ming's voice came from the cave: "Come in."

Da Mao was slightly startled, and walked into the cave. When he came to the hall and saw Fang Ming, he bowed respectfully and said, "Da Mao has met the master."

"There's no need to be too polite." Fang Ming waved his hand, gestured, and continued: "Are you used to staying in the back kitchen now?"

"Habit."

"I want you to work in another place, what do you think?"

"Da Mao is a member of the Qing Lingzong, so he naturally has to follow the instructions of the sect leader. As long as he can contribute his modest strength to the Qing Lingzong, Da Mao can do anything."

"From today onwards, you will be in charge of the entire Qing Lingzong servants, and you will be the head of the servants." Fang Ming nodded and said.

Fang Ming likes Da Mao's assessment of the situation, and he speaks beautifully. The two used to be good brothers. Da Mao didn't ask Fang Ming for favors because of this, nor did he show off their relationship everywhere to bully others, but down-to-earth Do what you should do.

"Chief Manager!" Da Mao was startled, and said with trepidation: "As far as Da Mao knows, except for the back kitchen, other chores are already under the management of Manager Shi. It's not appropriate for Da Mao to take care of it."

"Director Shi?" Fang Ming chuckled, and said, "The manager is self-proclaimed, and he doesn't manage well. I appoint whoever is the manager. What do you think?"

"Da Mao, no, Lu Xin, the head of the miscellaneous service department, pay homage to the master." When Da Mao heard this, excitement flashed in his eyes, and he bowed respectfully to Fang Ming with a loud voice.

Lu Xin is the original name of Damao.

　I will post it as soon as I write it, and it is not scheduled. I really don’t have time to write it. I will stay up late and write it. I can’t procrastinate any longer.
