Shengshuiyuan

In a rare afternoon of free time, in the back kitchen of Xinghua Building, the man with light brown hair looked at the pastry ingredients on the table, then turned to look at a plate of red and white pastries with a soft texture and said to the young man in red

"I'm going to teach you how to make this mille-feuille."

Looking at the young man staring at the desk seriously, the light brown-haired man pointed to bowls of ingredients and explained

"Prepare [-] grams of coconut milk from Fore, [-] grams of strawberry puree, or any fruit in this season. Fruit puree can be made. Then prepare [-] grams of caster sugar..."

Just as the light brown-haired man was seriously describing the ingredients, he frowned slightly, raised his hand and patted the red-clothed boy who was stealing strawberry puree with his hands, and continued to narrate:

"Thirty grams of clear water, and another bowl of [-] grams of clear water for backup. This last bowl is our unique and secret coagulant in Xinghualou. It will never be rumored, which is why our Xinghualou has been using it for hundreds of years. The reason why business is booming."

Lightly licking his finger that smelled like fruit puree, the young man in red tilted his head and looked at the two bowls of clear water with doubts in his eyes.

"Brother Mo Li, why do you need two bowls of water, isn't one bowl enough?"

Raising his hand and gently pinching the cheek of the boy in red, the man called Mo Li let out a soft breath.

"I need two bowls of water. I have my own reasons. Just listen carefully."

With a sound of "Oh", the red-haired boy nodded his head half-understood.

Slightly pursing his lips and smiling slightly, Mo Li took the bowls and utensils for preparing ingredients, and continued

"The next step is to make: first heat [-] grams of water, half of the sugar, and half of the coagulant powder, and stir well."

As he spoke, Mo Li held the hand of the young man in red who was first exposed to pastry making, and asked him to follow him to pour the ingredients into the bowl one by one. Stir the ingredients with your own poured

"Yes, just stir like me."

Pursing his lips lightly, the young man in red stared at Mo Li's hand, clenched it tightly and stirred it strangely.

Seeing the young man in red's serious movements despite his unfamiliarity, Mo Li nodded slightly in satisfaction and said with a light smile.

"That's right, that's enough, then pour in the strawberry puree and mix well."

Looking at the fragrant and sweet strawberry puree, the boy in red resisted the urge to steal it, and continued to imitate Mo Li's movements, pouring the ingredients on the strawberry puree.

Taking out another bowl, Mo Li continued

"Afterwards, pour one hundred grams of water, coconut milk, the other half of sugar, and coagulated powder into the pot and heat."

Looking at the boy in red who was tremblingly holding the bowl and wanting to put the ingredients into the hot pot, Mo Li was afraid that the little guy would be scalded by the heat, so he took the boy in red's bowl and put it into the pot to heat it up .Continue to stir the ingredients slowly and evenly

"Just stir it at a constant speed until there are no particles and it all melts."

Taking out the prepared strawberry puree and coconut milk puree, Mo Li raised his hand and patted his saliva lightly, wanting to eat the back of the red-clothed boy's hand, and continued.

"Put these two bowls of strawberry puree and coconut milk puree aside."

Mo Li then took out a transparent glass bowl, picked up a spoon and poured coconut milk into the glass bowl, walked to the ice room and continued

"Then pour a spoonful of coconut milk into the ice room and refrigerate for 10 minutes to freeze."

Seeing the ice room full of ice cubes for the first time, the curious boy in red was about to enter the ice room, but Mo Li grabbed him by the collar and took him out of the ice room.

Twenty minutes later, the two of them took out two bowls of solidified coconut milk mud, and Mo Li poured the prepared strawberry puree on top of the coconut milk mud. After entering the strawberry puree, Mo Li walked to the ice room and continued

"After pouring the strawberry puree over the coconut milk puree, refrigerate for another 10 minutes."

While waiting for the strawberry puree to freeze, Mo Li raised his hand to caress the young man in red and said,

"At the end, just add a layer of coconut milk puree and a layer of strawberry puree to make them condense into jelly."

Scratching his hair lightly, the young man in red frowned and said

"It's very troublesome."

Mo Li raised his hand and lightly pinched the cheek of the young man in red, and said with a helpless smile

"If you want to make a delicious pastry, one less step will affect its taste. Do you know?"

Gently rubbing his sore cheeks, the boy in red muttered in a low voice

"understood."

After an hour, a layer of coconut milk mud and a layer of strawberry puree were finally made.

He took out two finished strawberry mille-feuille cakes with distinct layers, cut them into diamond-shaped cakes of the same size with a knife, and handed them to the young man in red who wiped the drool with the back of his hand.

"Come and taste, how does it taste?"

Quickly took the mille-feuille cake, the boy in red stuffed the pastry into his mouth, chewed it, squinted his eyes full of satisfaction, and said vaguely

"Mmmm, delicious!"

After eating a few pieces of mille-feuille cake, the young man in red wiped his mouth carelessly with his sleeve, then thought for a moment, then smiled and said,

"Hey, in order to thank you for teaching me how to make mille-feuille, I'll take you to see a very beautiful place!"

Before Mo Li could recover, the boy in red grabbed Mo Li's hand and ran towards the gate.

Behind the two of them, a woman in a light green skirt looked at the two leaving figures with puzzled eyes.

Turning his head to look at the still busy shop, Mo Li looked at the woman in the light green skirt and apologized

"Luluo, I'll go out with Elegy, and you can take care of me in the shop first!"

Looking at the two people who were running away quickly, the woman called Lu Luo smashed the rag in her hand on the ground with her eyes full of anger.

A woman dressed as a maid at the side looked at the angry woman, rolled her eyes slightly, squinted and said

"Sister Luluo, you see, Brother Mo Li only cared about you and Xinghualou before. You see, since this elegy came, Brother Mo Li doesn't even look at you now."

Then, the maid's eyes were full of sternness, she looked at Lu Luo who was holding her palm tightly and said,

"Look at him, I'm afraid he's not some kind of mountain spirit or monster. He deliberately provoked your relationship with Mexico. Tomorrow is just the Dragon Boat Festival, and the realgar wine can just make those monsters and ghosts show their true colors. At that time, let's see this one called Elegy, How to instigate your relationship with Mexico!"

Squinting her eyes, Luluo looked at the maid, slightly pursed her lips, and said sternly with her eyes full.

"At that time, if there are no monsters and ghosts, and some people are killed, don't blame me."

Smiling with evil eyes, the maid said

"Of course."

In the very lively corner of Xinghualou, a blond boy who listened carefully to the conversation of the two women, took a bite of the soft pastry, looked at the white-haired animal-eared man who was watching the show, and said,

"How does it feel?"

Raising his eyebrows lightly, Li Muyan shook his head lightly and said

"Women who are jealous can't be provoked."

After finishing the pastry in his hand, the Marquis Luno on the left side of the seat lightly shrugged his shoulders and took a sip of tea, looked at Lantierre and said

"How, are you going to help that snake demon, or just stand by?"

Lantiere took a sip of tea, looked at Yunmo and Qingtong beside him, and smiled meaningfully with his lips curled up.

Mo Li was still a little dazed and ran quickly along with the elegy. Behind Xu Mi, there was a large lush, tall and dazzling sunflower forest, which surprised Mo Li from ear to ear.

Elegy smiled, turned to look at Mo Li who was in a daze and opened his hands, saying like offering a treasure

"Look! This is a big piece that only I know..."

Before the words of the elegy were finished, Mo Li, who had recovered from his senses, walked towards a sunflower as if remembering something he had forgotten.

"sunflower..."

Turned very excited, clasping the hand of dirge

"I remember, I remember everything. You are the red-haired kid I met when I was young, right?! I remember you took me to this sunflower forest for the first time!"

After listening to Mo Li's words, it was originally a joyous dirge, but suddenly he shook off Mo Li's hand forcefully, and said with eyes full of sarcasm

"You still remember that I brought you to the sunflower forest! Why don't you remember that you promised me to come to see me every day and give me the cakes you made, but somehow they disappeared, making me wait for a month in vain, you know that you have been waiting for you for a month in vain Me, how do I feel!!"

Looking at the angry dirge in front of him with eyes full of surprise, Mo Li said apologetically

"I'm sorry, my mother passed away at the time, and my father moved with his family. So I didn't have time to tell you about my move, but we are still friends."

Dodging Mo Li's outstretched hand, Elegy raised his eyebrows slightly and looked at Mo Li, and said with an evil smile

"So, do you still want to be my friend?"

In the next moment, Mo Li's eyes were full of shock, Elegy's original light brown pupils suddenly turned into pure golden abnormal pupils, and the part of his body that was originally his legs turned into a thick, fiery red snake tail with scales.

Looking at Mo Li who retreated in horror, Elegy stretched out his fingers that turned into sharp claws, gently lifted Mo Li's chin, and said with eyes full of sarcasm

"How? Seeing that you are too scared to move, are we still friends?"

Turning around and flicking the snake's tail, Dirge lightly raised his lips and said

"I was shedding my skin back then, that's why I turned into a child. Now that you see my real body, do you still have the courage to say that you and I are friends?"

Swallowing his saliva lightly, he suppressed the instinctive fear in his heart because of the sudden sight of the body of the elegy.Mo Li approached Elegy's wrist and said

"It doesn't matter if you are a snake demon. I believe you are kind. The you back then and the you now are far more sincere and sincere than those greedy and terrifying people. Even if you are a demon, I am still willing to have sex with you." friend!"

Squinting slightly, he shook off Mo Li's hand, and said in a dirge

"You say I am kind, you should know that I am ruthless and cold. Do you think the so-called kindness and sincerity you mentioned exist in me!"

Squinting slightly, he used magic to push Mo Li away a few meters, turned around and was about to leave, but Mo Li, who resisted the pain from the fall, hugged his waist and said

"Don't go, I finally found you, can you not leave me again!"

Elegy looked down at Mo Li's bleeding arm, sighed softly and said softly

"However, you can't tell others about seeing my body. Do you know?"

Nodding vigorously, Murray assured

"I know, I will never tell anyone your identity!"

On the second day, the annual Dragon Boat Festival, Xinghualou was closed for a day today. Luluo personally prepared a table of delicious dishes, and served a jar of wine to look at the dirge road

"Come on, this is the fine wine I bought today, I wonder if you can drink it."

Knowing the identity of Elegy, Mo Li stopped Luluo from pouring wine and said,

"Elegy can't drink, he will get drunk when he drinks."

Puckering his lips lightly, hiding the sarcasm in his eyes, Elegy said with a light smile

"Today is a rare Dragon Boat Festival, it doesn't matter if I drink a little."

As he spoke, Lu Luo and the maid gulped down the wine in one gulp amidst Mo Li's worries.

Elegy, who was smiling lightly at first, showed the empty bowl to Luluo, but suddenly his face turned pale and he held his belly in cold sweat, looking at Luluo with eyes full of shock and saying

"You... actually poisoned me!"

In the next moment, a red light flashed, and the place where Elegy's legs were originally changed into a fiery red snake tail.

Looking at the painful elegy, Mo Li hugged the elegy in his arms full of worries.In the next moment, Elegy covered his mouth, and a mouthful of blood spattered from his mouth.The tail flicked vigorously because of the pain, knocking the tables and chairs to the ground.

Looking at the dirge in front of her in shock, Luluo looked at the maid beside her in disbelief.

Seeing the painful elegy, Mo Li looked angrily at Lu Luo and said,

"Luluo! What have you done!"

Lvluo backed away in horror and pointed at the maid.

"It's not me, I just want him to show his true form, I never thought of killing him. It's her! It's her poison! It's not me!"

Lips pursed slightly, eyes full of sternness, the maid lightly spread her hands with eyes full of innocence and said

"Miss Luluo, you have wronged me. It was you who said that you hated Elegy to instigate your relationship, and that Brother Mo Li was not as nice to you as before, so you asked me to poison him to death. How could you blame it all on me!"

Seeing Mo Li who clenched her teeth and eyes full of resentment when she heard the maid's words, Lu Luo shook her head vigorously and cried

"No! I didn't say I wanted to kill Elegy! It's really not me!"

Just as the maid with a sinister smile was about to leave, she was hit on the chest by a white, bony hand outside the door, breaking the pillar.

Everyone looked at the door in surprise, a blond boy said

"Being seduced by others because of jealousy is indeed Luluo's fault."

Instead, Lantiere pursed his lips lightly, his eyes full of sarcasm, and said to the maid who was blown away by the palm but was unharmed.

"I really want to know, who are you?"

Before the maid could answer Lantiere's words, a waiter with eyes full of horror ran into the room and shouted at Murray

"It's not good, master, I just went to Xiaokui's room and found Xiaokui dead in her own room!"

Finding out that the matter was revealed, the "maid" planned to turn into a black mist and flee quickly, when a white light suddenly hit the black mist, and after a scream, the fleeing black mist turned into a pool of black water and disappeared.

Qingtong and Yunmo, who had wiped out the black mist, walked into the room, looked at Mo Lidao who was still unable to slow down

"Two days ago when you went out with your friends, we felt the dark aura on this maid. Unexpectedly, she is indeed an evil thing."

Seeing Luluo crying on the ground, Mo Li's eyes were full of nervousness, and when he saw the unconscious Elegy in his arms, he turned to look at Lan Tier and said

"Whoever you are, please save him!"

Shake your head lightly, Rantiyer said

"I can't save him. I can only go to the Marquis of the South to save him."

Southern Marquis Mansion Shrouded in Fairy Spirit

Mo Li, who was full of anxiety, paced around the door, and Natsu said impatiently.

"Can you stop walking around all the time, I'm getting dizzy!"

Two hours later, the anxiously waiting crowd looked at the Southern Marquis who opened the door and patted the sweat on his forehead. Mo Li quickly walked towards the Southern Marquis and asked

"Master Bai Ze, what happened to Elegy!"

Taking the handkerchief Yunmo handed over and wiping his forehead, Bai Ze let out a soft breath.

"It's all right now, the poison and evil spirit in his body have been removed."

Seeing Mo Li anxiously running into the room, Bai Ze smiled with a deep meaning

"Are you sure you know his real identity?"

Full of worries about the people in the room, Mo Li ran quickly to the room, half-kneeling in front of the bed, looking at Elegy who was still sleeping but recovering, exhaled lightly, let go of his worries, and held Elegy's hand tightly, Mo Li's heart Mixed feelings.

After Sumi passed, Elegy opened his pure golden eyes and looked at Mo Lidao

"I thought I was dead..."

Before Elegy could finish the next words, he was hugged tightly by a warm embrace, Mo Li choked up and said

"Great! You're fine, I thought I'd lose you!"

Slightly pursing his lips and smiling lightly, Elegy lightly raised his hand and patted Mo Li's back to comfort him

"Don't worry, I'm fine."

After dinner, everyone sat by the lotus pond, leisurely eating the delicious cakes made by Mo Li in order to thank everyone for saving Elegy, and all of them suddenly stared at Elegy who had regained some composure, Lan Tier said

"We only know that your main body is a snake tail, but you don't have a demonic aura, but you have a comfortable aura. So what is your identity?"

Satisfied, he ate the lotus cake into his mouth, and Elegy smiled, showing red hair and the mark of the gods on his forehead, and said to everyone

"Do you know the Nuwa clan?"

Carter was eager to try, raised his hand and said excitedly

"I know! I know! The Nuwa clan is the race of descendants of the ancient God, the half-human, half-snake God Nuwa!"

Nodding lightly, dirge

"I am not afraid of realgar wine because I am a member of the Nuwa clan. Except for the direct patriarchs of the Nuwa clan who are all women, everyone else, male or female, is a god clan. Naturally, they are also half-human and half-snake. Those who don't know may not have a high level of cultivation. It is easy for people to mistake us for snake demons."

Swallowing a mouthful of pastries with difficulty, Li Ge enviously said

"Wow! You are the legendary goddess of the earth, Nuwa, from the Nuwa clan! You are amazing!"

After that, everyone chatted and laughed.

The night was deep, and everyone fell asleep.Taking a sip of tea, Lantiere looked at the full moon in the sky, frowned and said

"This time the enemy is blatant, and it is indeed very difficult."

Clenching his palms tightly, Li Muyan said

"Yeah, it's so bold that it wants to kill the Nuwa people."

Spreading out his hand, an ancient book with a thick and strange dragon-shaped carving appeared in the palm of Lantiere. Lantiere caressed the dragon-shaped engraving on the ancient book, and said solemnly.

"Maybe, if we go to the Dream Demon Race once, we will know the reason of this ancient book..."

The author has something to say:

The next chapter will be cruel, how cruel everyone hopes
