Divine Doctor from the Start of the Eye Mutation

Chapter 1939 - 1940: A Role Model for Our Generation

Sun Wei laughed: "Brother Ling, I used to think I was shameless enough, but after meeting you, I realized you're the real shameless one."

Ling Zhenfei said: "Is this shameless? I'm doing this for you all, and for her too. I just don't want you to walk so far to reach Xianling Mountain. And yet you call me shameless."

Sun Wei hurriedly said: "I was wrong. You're not shameless; you're serving the people and are a living Lei Feng. We all appreciate your goodness."

Zhang Zhenlin said: "Brother Ling does good deeds without seeking fame, truly a role model for us all."

Ling Zhenfei said: "Enough with the useless talk. We'll leave the day after tomorrow. Tomorrow I'll cook something nice for you. What do you say to eating and drinking until we drop?"

Sun Wei and the others were delighted when they heard this. Sun Wei said: "Brother Ling, you sure know how to read minds, even guessing what's on my stomach."

Zhang Zhenlin also said: "I really miss Brother Ling's cooking; I probably won't be able to quit it in the future."

Ling Zhenfei laughed; inviting them to eat was, of course, not that simple—he had his own plans.

The next morning, the three of them were lying on chairs outside in the courtyard, enjoying the sunshine.

Murong Liuqing arrived, wearing a light blue long dress with a flute tucked into the sash at her waist. Her hair was beautifully styled, with a jade hairpin inserted.

She went over to where the three of them were, walked around them once, then stood next to Ling Zhenfei and said: "Ling Zhenfei, how are you feeling today?"

Ling Zhenfei didn't open his eyes and said: "I feel pretty good today."

Murong Liuqing said: "So, can you set out to catch up with the main group?"

Ling Zhenfei said: "Although I feel better today than yesterday, it's still unlikely to start off. Let's wait a bit longer."

Murong Liuqing stomped her foot angrily and said: "Ling Zhenfei, are you doing this on purpose?"

Ling Zhenfei said: "Why would I be doing it on purpose? If I could walk, I'd have gone long ago. Why pretend to be sick?"

Murong Liuqing said: "I know you're just Guest Elders at our Wuliang Mountain, but you've already reached an agreement with us. Besides, you've already been to the Wuliang Book Tower and got what you wanted.

Yet now you make excuses not to go to Xianling Mountain. Your behavior is simply too shameless."

Ling Zhenfei opened his eyes and glanced at the puffed-up Murong Liuqing, saying: "Who are you calling shameless? Did we ever say we weren't going to Xianling Mountain?"

Murong Liuqing said: "Since you're going, you should hurry and pack up. The sooner we leave, the sooner we catch up with the main group."

Ling Zhenfei laughed and said: "Are you Wuliang Mountain people all so stubborn? It's only a two-day journey from your Wuliang Mountain to Xianling Mountain.

But you insist on walking there. I can promise you this: even if I leave ten days later, I'll still be ahead of the Wuliang Mountain people."

Murong Liuqing said: "Stop bragging. You're definitely doing this on purpose."

Sun Wei chimed in: "Miss Murong, our Mr. Ling is very capable; don't worry, if he says he can, he definitely can."

Murong Liuqing angrily said: "I don't care; even if I have to force you, I'll take you away."

Saying this, Murong Liuqing drew her flute from her waist, obviously prepared to take action.

Ling Zhenfei hurriedly said to her: "No need to get rough. If you really want to leave, I'll agree. I'll rest for one more day, and we'll set off tomorrow morning."

Murong Liuqing was delighted to hear this and said: "Really? You said it."

Ling Zhenfei said: "That's right, I said it. We'll set off tomorrow morning, but tonight let's make some dishes and eat here. I hope Miss Murong can join us."

Murong Liuqing paused for a moment and then said: "Alright, I'll definitely come tonight."

After speaking, Murong Liuqing headed in the direction she came from.

After Murong Liuqing left, Sun Wei asked Ling Zhenfei: "Was that girl about to make a move just now?"

"Seems like it," Ling Zhenfei said.

Sun Wei asked: "Can she take the three of us on her own?"

Ling Zhenfei said: "It's just her way of expressing herself."

Zhang Zhenlin asked: "Brother Ling, are you really going to cook here tonight?"

Ling Zhenfei nodded and said: "That's right, we'll do it here, but we'll need to prepare ahead of time."

The three of them got up from their chairs. Ling Zhenfei busied himself in the courtyard where the Guest Elders lived, building a very functional stove out of stones.

Meanwhile, Sun Wei went to the dining hall to borrow things, like pots, pans, and various seasonings.

Zhang Zhenlin's task was to gather firewood from the mountain. Fortunately, there were plenty of trees on Xianling Mountain, making it easy to collect some dry wood.

Ling Zhenfei had just about finished the stove when Sun Wei returned with a large pile of things, and Zhang Zhenlin also came back with a large pile of firewood.

Ling Zhenfei lit the fire and tested the stove. Although it was simple, it worked very well.

After a busy session, the three of them took a good rest.

Sun Wei said: "Brother Ling, what delicious dishes do you plan to make for us tonight?"

Ling Zhenfei thought for a moment and said: "Do you know about a big dish called Buddha Jumps Over the Wall? Have you ever eaten it?"

Sun Wei said: "I've had it, of course. In the North Sea area, we have a lot of seafood, and all the restaurants have Buddha Jumps Over the Wall, so I secretly tried it once."

Zhang Zhenlin asked from the side: "What exactly is Buddha Jumps Over the Wall? I've never had it before."

Ling Zhenfei explained: "Buddha Jumps Over the Wall is an exquisite dish with a rich aroma, catering to all tastes. The preparation process is very complicated, with more than a dozen ingredients like abalone, sea cucumber, fish lips, and cattle hide gel. It can even have dozens of ingredients.

To fully showcase each ingredient's texture and characteristics, each must first be cooked separately, and then combined. Finally, a rich broth and aged wine are added and simmered for more than ten hours to achieve the best flavor."

As Ling Zhenfei spoke, Zhang Zhenlin listened with nearly drooling.

"Brother Ling, I've never eaten it, but just thinking about it, it sounds delicious."

Sun Wei laughed and said: "Not only is it delicious, but this dish is also very nutritious, really tasty."

Zhang Zhenlin thought for a moment and said: "But if this dish requires simmering for more than ten hours, then we won't have enough time."

Ling Zhenfei said: "You don't need to worry about that. Leave it to me. This time I'm not making an ordinary Buddha Jumps Over the Wall but rather a Gold-clothed Buddha Jumps Over the Wall that only I can make."

Sun Wei perked up and asked: "I've eaten Buddha Jumps Over the Wall before, but what's this Gold-clothed Buddha Jumps Over the Wall?"

Ling Zhenfei said: "It's just different, and you'll know when you taste it."

Ling Zhenfei took out all the ingredients from the Heaven-Dropping Essence Marrow: chicken, lamb, beef, fish, all fresh, and some deep-sea fish to make do.
