The eighth chapter 第八章 True Sun blade (First Part) 正阳刀(上) „Ten years practice the kitchen, ten years become aware the kitchen, live a life of solitude, one defeat will be your downfall.” Nian Bing is repeating the Zha Ji words, „master, I understands that you could rest assured that I will certainly bring back the Demon Chef title for you.” “十年练厨,十年悟厨,孤独一生,一败陨灭。”念冰重复着查极的话,“师傅,我明白,您放心,我一定会替您拿回鬼厨的称号。” Zha Ji shakes the head gently, said: „Does not use. Demon Chef is I, but is not you. You have learned my technique, but actually cannot satisfy the present situation, only then the unceasing progress can make you reach the culinary arts summit. Chef(s), is on continent a very ordinary occupation, you need to try hard to practice Magic, this occupation also is you best covering up. I did not hate initially that woman, you do not need to seek for her. Past passed, if not she, perhaps I have not been able to understand Magic and mystery of culinary arts union, could not receive your such good apprentice.” At the same time was saying, his covers entirely the wrinkle the hand to put out a long shape cloth wrapper from side, gives Nian Bing, „this is my old companion, later gave you. Puts out to come to see.” 查极轻轻摇头,道:“不用了。鬼厨是我,而不是你。你学会了我的技艺,但是却不能满足于现状,只有不断的进步才能让你达到厨艺的颠峰。厨师,是大陆上一个很普通的职业,你需要努力修炼魔法,这个职业也正好是你最好的遮掩。我并不恨当初那个女人,你也不需要去寻找她。过去的都已经过去了,如果不是她,或许我还无法悟出魔法与厨艺结合的奥妙,也更收不到你这么个好徒弟了。”一边说着,他那布满皱纹的手从旁边拿出一个长形布包,递给念冰,“这是我的老伙计,以后就交给你了。拿出来看看吧。” Nian Bing opens the cloth wrapper, when is twining when the cloth vanishes little, knife appears before him, Kitchen Knife does not have the scabbard generally, but these has, like his Morning Dew. The knife and Morning Dew length is similar, but the knife edge actually must extend were many, four cuns (2.5cm), the back is extremely fully thick, amounts to half inch, after starting, big of weight, is equal to three handle Morning Dew Knife. The scabbard is the vermilion, above has the antique pattern. Nian Bing grips that with the hilt that the hand tallies, pulls out the blade slowly. 念冰打开布包,当缠绕着的布一点点消失时,一柄刀出现在他面前,菜刀一般是没有刀鞘的,但这一把却有,就像他的晨露。刀身与晨露长短相若,只不过刀刃却要宽的多了,足有四寸,刀背极厚,达半寸,入手后,重量之大,足足相当于三柄晨露刀。刀鞘是朱红色的,上面有着古香古色的花纹。念冰握住那与手吻合的刀柄,缓缓将刀抽出。 The lightly (Dan Dan) scalding hot aura from following the garnet knife edge heads on, Nian Bing trembles, Flame God's Stone in bosom sends out low and deep roaring, within the body the speed of Fire and Ice Fusion magic power revolving because of moving restlessly of Flame God's Stone, but significantly sped up several points. When entire blade to sheath, the uncoordinated wide blade edge thick back blade showed the unusual aesthetic sense unexpectedly, on entire knife pasts the garnet gloss, on the knife edge the edges and corners is being distinct, just likes the shark fin is ordinary, exquisite Daoist believers linear pass through the entire knife edge. Grasps it in the hand, the feeling of that raging fire galloping made Nian Bing burning with anger. 淡淡的灼热气息从顺着暗红色的刀刃扑面而来,念冰手一颤,怀中的火焰神之石发出一声低沉的咆哮,体内的冰火同源魔力旋转的速度因为火焰神之石的躁动而明显加快了几分。当全刀离鞘时,原本不协调的宽刃厚背刀竟然展现出异常的美感,整柄刀上流转着暗红色的光泽,刀刃上棱角分明,犹如鲨鱼鳍一般,优美的一道道流线型贯穿整个刀刃。将它握在手中,那种烈火奔腾的感觉不禁令念冰热血沸腾。 treasured knife that „after this is I become famous, obtains, it is my old companion, is ordinary like the brothers, throughout follows side me. Still remembers Hua Tian? This is also he most satisfactory a work besides your Morning Dew. This handle True Sun does not build with the metal, said accurately that it should be carves is right. Its basic material quality, is an corner/horn of fire dragon.” “这是我成名后才得到的宝刀,它是我的老伙计,就像兄弟一般,始终伴随在我身边。还记得华天么？这也是他除了你的晨露以外最得意的一件作品。这柄正阳并不是用金属打造而成的,准确的说,它应该是雕刻出来的才对。它的基本材质,是一只火龙的角。” „fire dragon horn? Master, has the fire dragon really?” Looks on the True Sun blade that exquisite streamline shape trace, Nian Bing curious asking. “火龙角？师傅,真的有火龙么？”看着正阳刀上那优美的流线形纹路,念冰好奇的问道。 „This issue I am unable to reply you, can only say in the legend has. Even if there are, the quantity is also scarce. Initial fire dragon horn, was I in a mountain valley discovered that as a result of corner/horn body its heat, I knows, this inevitably was a treasure, therefore, I had found Hua Tian, making him look. He said to me at that time that this corner/horn he wanted, no matter what how much money I open. Your master I am astute! I said to him that the corner/horn gives you to be also good, but, you must build in your this life to me the most favorite blade, when my Kitchen Knife. Hua Tian complied, therefore, had the emergence of this handle True Sun blade. He also truly calculates to suffice the friend, carved this handle treasured knife with fire dragon horn directly, because was carves, therefore on the knife did not have any slit . Moreover, it was also having the aura of fire dragon, was in itself Fire Attribute. Initially, when did not compete with that female I pulled rank, but has not used True Sun, even if she had Magic to enter the kitchen, was impossible to win I, the name of Demon Chef, can it be that false rumor.” Here, Zha Ji coughed one after several other, but proud actually in the slightest in eye did not reduce. “这个问题我也无法回答你,只能说在传说中有吧。即使有,数量也非常稀少。当初的火龙角,是我在一个山谷中发现的,由于角身其热,我知道,这必然是一件宝物,于是,我找到了华天,让他看了看。他当时就对我说,这角他要了,多少钱任我开。你师傅我多精明啊！我对他说,角给你也行,不过,你必须要给我打造出你这一生中最得意的刀,当我的菜刀。华天答应了,于是,就有了这柄正阳刀的出现。他也确实算够朋友,直接用火龙角雕刻出了这柄宝刀,由于是雕刻出来的,所以刀身上没有任何缝隙,而且,它还拥有着火龙的气息,本身就是火属性。当初,如果不是与那女子比赛时我过于托大而没有使用正阳,就算她有魔法入厨,也不可能赢的了我,鬼厨之名,又岂是虚传。”说到这里,查极接连咳嗽几声,但眼中的自豪却分毫不减。 „Master, you first rest little while, let alone.” Nian Bing kind gang Zha Ji is patting the back. “师傅,您先休息会儿吧,别说了。”念冰关切的帮查极轻拍着后背。 Zha Ji said with a smile: „I am all right, I was only too happy. My apprentice must finish an apprenticeship, I have not led into the oneself technique the coffin eventually. Nian Bing, after leaving here, what do you have to plan?” 查极微笑道:“我没事,我只是太高兴了而已。我的徒弟都要出师了,我终究没有将自己的技艺带入棺材之中。念冰,离开这里以后你有什么打算？” Nian Bing gawks, said: „Master, I have not thought this issue.” 念冰一楞,道:“师傅,我从来都没想过这个问题。” Zha Ji said: „You listen to me to give your suggestion. After leaving here, you go to Ice Snow City first, does not know that Hua Tian that old fogy died, visits him for me one, is Continent's Number One blacksmith, his treasure may be many, does not stop these that on that day you saw, perhaps, you can also obtain some advantage.” 查极道:“那你就听我给你的建议吧。离开这里后,你先去冰雪城,不知道华天那老家伙死了没有,代我去拜会他一下吧,身为大陆第一铸造师,他的宝贝可不少,绝不止那天你看到的那些,说不定,你还能得些好处。” Nian Bing sudden eye socket one red, grips tightly the hand of Zha Ji, „master, I do not want to walk, I do not want to walk.” 念冰突然眼圈一红,紧握住查极的手,“师傅,我不想走,我真的不想走。” In the Zha Ji eye glittering the ray of difference, „silly child, I was not meaning that you are impossible forever under my wing asylum! Should walk must walk after all. Grand Pavilion and Pure Wind House in Ice Snow City are in Ice Moon Empire the famous hotel, there will be your first station, you can choose one casually, finding the way to enter the kitchen, will observe there Chef(s) technique, will could to your some advantage, but, you must remember, once you have revealed the oneself kitchen technique, must leave, otherwise, by your present ability, was noted very much easily by others, if the official by country were discovered that will be troublesome many.” 查极眼中闪烁着异样的光芒,“傻孩子,我不是说了,你不可能永远都在我的羽翼庇护下啊！该走的总归要走。冰雪城里的大成轩和清风斋都是冰月帝国中有名的饭店,那里将是你的第一站,你可以随便选择一个,想办法进入厨房,观察那里厨师的技艺,或许能对你有些好处,不过,你要记住,一旦你露了自己的厨技,就必须要离开,否则,以你现在的能力,很容易就被别人注意到,如果被国家的官员发现,麻烦会很多。” Nian Bing nods with tears, „master, I have remembered, I will certainly study your initial appearance, goes all over continent each corner, studies the cookeries of various types of cooked food, I will certainly not disappoint you.” 念冰含泪点头,“师傅,我记住了,我一定会学习你当初的样子,走遍大陆每一个角落,学习各种菜肴的烹制,我一定不会让您失望的。” Zha Ji wipes off the tears that Nian Bing flows off, gentle [say / way]: „Silly child, cries anything, remembered these be enough. Left the top of kitchen, the wall is the midheaven, inside has my savings, you can carry off part first, sufficed on the road to spend is enough. Although money is not good thing, but does not have its all things to be all difficult, brings not to have the fault. As for other all, must try to find out by your oneself. Was right, I thought that your Magic cultivates the Magic strength not to be good, has the opportunity words, should look for one to repair for profound Magic expert(s) directs, encounters a difficulty to learn to be accommodating, so long as others have the thing to teach you, might as well Bai Qiwei the master, lives old, learns old, is each High Rank Chef(s) must achieve.” 查极擦掉念冰流下的泪水,慈祥的道:“傻孩子,哭什么,记住这些就足够了。厨房的灶台左边,墙壁是中空的,里面有我一些积蓄,你可以先带走一部分,够路上花费就足够了。虽然钱不是什么好东西,但没有它万事皆难,多带些没坏处。至于其他的一切,就都要靠你自己摸索了。哦,对了,我觉得你的魔法只是修炼魔法力还不行,有机会的话,应该找一个修为高深的魔法高手指点一下,遇事要学会变通,只要人家有东西能教导你,无妨拜其为师,活到老,学到老,是每一名高级厨师必须要做到的。” Nian Bing nodded, looks Zha Ji that on the face red light appears intermittently, in heart restless was more intense. 念冰点了点头,看着脸上红光隐现的查极,心中的不安更加强烈了。 Zha Ji has smiled, his smiling face is very calm, „child, your perception many that the master is stronger, although has eight years, but you actually work as 10 th the thing of year study more than me. Eight years practice the kitchen, eight years become aware the kitchen, but I actually do not hope your live a life of solitude, if will have the appropriate miss from now on, do not let off, pursues independently, happy, must strive by oneself.” 查极笑了,他的笑容很平静,“孩子,你的悟性比师傅强的多,虽然只有八年时间,但你却要比我当初十年学的东西还多很多。八年练厨,八年悟厨,但我却不希望你孤独一生,如果今后有合适的姑娘,千万不要放过了,放手去追,幸福,是要靠自己争取的。” Nian Bing knows nothing regarding the matter of men and women, „master, after these, said again.” 念冰对于男女之事可谓一窍不通,“师傅,这些以后再说吧。” Zha Ji stern [say / way]: „No, this matter you must promise me, is you must do, I do not hope that occurred repeats on you in my tragedy, the stable families have the advantage to you, from now on will continue to pursue advanced studies culinary arts, can make your heart stabler. Was right, you did not say that must make the fish thick soup to eat to me, now goes, the master somewhat was really hungry. For these years, has eaten the thing that you made, did including my oneself, some food tasteless.” 查极正色道:“不,这件事你一定要答应我,也是你必须要做的,我可不希望发生在我身上的悲剧在你身上重演,有一个稳定的家庭对你只有好处,今后继续深造厨艺时,也能让你的心更加稳定。哦,对了,你不是说要做鱼羹给我吃么,现在就去吧,师傅真的有些饿了。这几年,一直吃你做的东西,连我自己做的,都有些食之无味呢。” Nod of Nian Bing makes an effort, said: „Master, you could rest assured that I make certainly most delicacy the bright flame fish thick soup to taste to you.” 念冰用力的点了点头,道:“师傅,您放心,我一定做出最美味的明焰鱼羹给您品尝。” Zha Ji shows a faint smile, waved to him, said: „Goes, goes, the master is waiting for you.” 查极微微一笑,向他挥了挥手,道:“去吧,去吧,师傅等着你。” Nian Bing complies with one, draws in the oneself state of mind, stands up, ran quickly. Looks at the Nian Bing back, in the Zha Ji eye reveals the gratified ray, „child, the master has not misread, although your plans are deep, but actually as before is the person of sincere feeling truehearted nature, results in the disciple so, what I have to be good to yearn for?” Hand, shivering takes up the True Sun blade, sighed one lightly, delimited anxiously on the ground, although the handwriting twisted, but also calculates that can identify. 念冰答应一声,收拢自己的心绪,站起身,快步跑了出去。看着念冰的背影,查极眼中流露出欣慰的光芒,“孩子,师傅并没有看错,虽然你心机较深,但却依旧是至情至性之人,得徒如此,我还有什么好留恋的呢？”手,颤抖的拿起正阳刀,轻叹一声,在地上急划起来,虽然字迹歪曲,但也还算能够辨认。 The Nian Bing running up to riverside fast, in order to lets master quicker eating to the fish thick soup that oneself makes, he launches to catch fish directly, these years live, he early has practiced a good river character in the river, the free time of a while, caught two large black carps to return to the shore, looks sea-monster that in the hand was jumping for joy, [say / way] that no matter he also oneself water mark, thought aloud: „Today this fish is quite fresh, Master, I will certainly make the good fish thick soup that makes you satisfy.” 念冰飞快的跑到河边,为了能让师傅更快的吃到自己所做的鱼羹,他直接下水捞鱼,这些年生活下来,他早已经在河中练成了一身好水性,一会儿的工夫,就抓了两条肥大的青鱼回到岸边,看着手中活蹦乱跳的游鱼,他也不管自己身上的水迹,自言自语的道:“今天这鱼好新鲜,师傅,我一定会做出让您满意的好鱼羹。” At the same time was saying, Nian Bing has run back Peach Blossom Forest in high spirits, several arrow steps, before he arrived at the log cabin, „master, Master, you looked that I have caught two big fish, today light eats the fish to fear you to eat to the full, master......” 一边说着,念冰兴冲冲的跑回了桃花林,几个箭步,他已经来到了木屋前,“师傅,师傅,您看,我抓了两条大鱼,今天光吃鱼恐怕您就能吃饱了,师傅……” When Nian Bing arrives at the Zha Ji room, he has tarried suddenly, the whole body is similar to frozen is lived general, stiff motionless. Zha Ji lies down there as before, lies down in that comfortable deck chair, but, his eye has closed, the serene manner seemed has fallen asleep probably, but Nian Bing actually clear awareness, that was not the Zha Ji resting posture . Moreover, a snoring not day of master not loud, but now, actually...... 当念冰重新来到查极的房间时,他突然呆住了,全身如同被冰封住一般,僵硬不动。查极依旧躺在那里,躺在那舒适的躺椅中,但是,他的眼睛已经闭合,安详的神态看上去好象睡着了,但念冰却清晰的知道,那绝不是查极的睡姿,况且,师傅的呼噜没有一天不响,而现在,却……
