Chapter 107 Dead Mouth, Enjoy!
The next day,
Looking at Squad 136, apart from Wang Teng, all the other men had dark circles under their eyes, which startled Hong Ying and Si Xiaonan.
"Wow, Captain, what kind of trend is this? Why are you doing this kind of makeup and styling?!"
Chen Muyi glared at Wang Teng with a dark expression, then said awkwardly, "Haha, you guys don't understand! This is the most popular makeup and styling style, it's called... it's called the 'corporate slave style'! Yes, that's the 'corporate slave style'!!!"
"Office worker style? Little Nan, have you heard of this style?"
Wen Qimo quickly interjected, "Of course! This is the trendiest makeup and styling for men! Hongying, let me ask you, doesn't this makeup and styling look awesome?"
Hongying looked at it carefully, nodded and praised, "Yes, indeed, it looks like you haven't slept for a day and a night!"
Many of the men looked at Wang Teng with resentment, but none of them said anything more.
In the afternoon,
Chen Muye received a phone call and, with a somewhat serious expression, pulled Wang Teng and Lin Qiye into his office.
"The Master is coming!"
"Master, what is he doing here?"
Chen Muye shook his head: "He didn't say. Come on, I'll take you two there. The teacher specifically asked to see you!"
Just as I stepped out of the office,
An old-fashioned carriage was parked in front of the Peace Agency. The page boy who was driving the carriage stood beside it. When he saw the three of them come out, he opened the carriage door and said, "The Master is waiting for you inside."
The carriage was large, but the people around it seemed oblivious to it, as if they hadn't seen it at all.
After the three of them stepped into the carriage, the original carriage scene was gone, replaced by a place filled with birdsong and fragrant flowers.
Opposite them, an elderly man dressed in white, with an air of otherworldly wisdom, sat on a sofa, smiling at the three of them.
"My forbidden realm is simply replacing the 'mental landscape' with the external landscape. It's just a little trick, please excuse my amateurishness! By the way, my tea-brewing skills are quite good, you should try some..."
As he spoke, a teacup appeared in front of each of the three people, and without any visible movement from the Master, the tea was naturally poured into the teacups.
The Master looked at the three of them expectantly: "Try it quickly, what kind of flavor can you taste?"
Chen Muyi picked up the water glass, carefully took a sip, and then tentatively asked, "Hmm~, is there tea?"
The teacher beamed and said, "Yes, yes, the taste of camellia, and what else, and what else?"
Beside him, Lin Qiye quickly took a sip quietly, then smacked his lips, hoping to taste the camellia in the tea.
Chen Muyi took another small sip: "Bang, hawthorn?"
"Hmm, very close, this is dried apricot."
Lin Qiye looked at Chen Muye in surprise, then stared at the water glass in disbelief, and took another small sip, as if searching for dried apricots in the tea.
Unfortunately, Lin Qiye still couldn't taste anything. Undeterred, he took another sip and smacked his lips frantically.
The Master looked at Chen Muye expectantly and continued, "What else? What else?"
Chen Muyi took another bite, thought for a moment, and tentatively asked, "Mint?"
The Master nodded vigorously, beaming. "Yes, that's right, it's mint. But only a very small amount is added to this tea, so it has a slightly refreshing taste. Wang Teng, Qi Ye, can you taste it? A slight refreshing taste, a hint of mint."
Lin Qiye took another sip, smacking her lips repeatedly, hoping to taste the mint flavor.
Lin Qiye drank only half a cup, but he couldn't taste any of the flavors the Master had described.
Wang Teng put one hand on Lin Qiye's shoulder: "Little Lin, hurry up and think about it. The captain has mentioned three things, and you can't say a single one."
Lin Qiye looked at Wang Teng with a confused expression, then, unwilling to give up, put the teacup to his lips and began to smell it. He took a deep breath, but still couldn't smell anything.
Wang Teng burst into laughter at Lin Qiye's expression.
"You...you don't have a sense of taste? You are..."
Lin Qiye was so overwhelmed by the laughter that he dropped the pretense and downed his teacup in one gulp: "Hmph, I didn't taste anything, but you didn't say anything either, did you? If the elder brother doesn't laugh at the younger brother, then neither of us should criticize the other."
"You finished it? Tea is meant to be savored. Alright then, let me tell you what it tastes like."
As he spoke, Wang Teng pulled a simple earthenware jar from his pocket, placed it on the coffee table, picked up his teacup, and took a sip: "Hmm~~, I can taste it, there's gardenia, dried tangerine peel, and honey... Right, Master!"
Looking at the antiques on the coffee table, the Master wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and gave a thumbs up: "Yes, that's it! You guessed them all!"
At this moment, Chen Muyi suddenly opened his eyes wide, and then, unwilling to give up, picked up his water glass and began to smack his lips as he tried to smell the flavor that Wang Teng had described in the tea.
Chen Muyi finished drinking the water in his teacup, still looking at Wang Teng and the Master with a questioning expression.
Wang Teng continued, "This tea is really good. Master, do you have any other teas?"
"Hmm, try this one too..."
Wang Teng drank another glass: "Hmm, this one's not good either. Are there any more?"
“Look, there’s also this…”
"This tea isn't good either!"
Seeing Wang Teng's incessant chatter, the Master's brow twitched a few times. Then, looking at the pottery jar in front of Wang Teng with resentment, he said from the bottom of his heart, "Right? These are all pretty good. I'll send you two packs of each to try later!"
"Thank you, Master! How magnanimous!"
After saying that, Wang Teng raised his hand and put the pottery jar away again.
Seeing Wang Teng put the pottery jar away, the Master subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief. It has to be said that the Master also felt immense pressure while standing in front of the pottery jar.
"Wang Teng, I've received news that another Outer God is coming to Cangnan to investigate what happened ten years ago. This is the only remaining resource of our Great Xia, and I've brought it all to you. We're counting on you this time."
Wang Teng took the Ruyi Pill handed to him by the Master and nodded with a serious expression: "Yes, I guarantee I will complete the mission."
The Master said somewhat seriously, "We must not underestimate our enemy. When I came to Cangnan, I suddenly felt an overwhelming killing intent. It must be that a supreme god has his eye on me."
Wang Teng blinked, then looked at the Master tentatively: "Master, when do you sense the killing intent?"
"Just yesterday at noon, let me tell you..."
Alright, the case is solved. The murderous intent that the Master sensed was probably emanating from Yang Jin.
Looking at the packets of tea in his arms, Wang Teng tentatively said, "Master, why don't you change your name? Changing your name should solve everything!"
"Nonsense! If changing the name could help Great Xia overcome its crisis, I'd rather change my name to Gou Sheng right now!"
