Chapter 293 Searching

Previously, there was a problem with Penglai's seal, which caused [Shukaku] to appear in Chinatown, almost destroying the entire Chinatown. Now I heard Ip Man ask this question again.

Natasha's heart lifted subconsciously.

There are lessons learned from the past, so she can't help but be so nervous.

"There is no problem with the seal on the island for the time being. After [Jiu Sword Immortal] came back, the island owner and the immortals specially reinforced the seal." Shaking her head, A Xing's answer made Natasha breathe a little sigh of relief.

"but……"

[From Natasha’s legend...]

However, before Natasha could change her expression, Ah Xing spoke again.

Then, he seemed to think of something, glanced at Natasha aside, and made a hesitant expression.

Noticing the hesitant look on Ah Xing's face, Natasha guessed that what the other person said next might be related to Penglai, because Ah Xing clearly didn't want her to know. However, Natasha deliberately looked puzzled and continued to stay in the martial arts gym, ignoring Ah Xing's gaze.

SHIELD has always kept a close eye on everything in Penglai, so it is naturally impossible to make concessions at such a critical moment.

Looking at Natasha's cheeky look on the side, Ye Wen deliberately had a helpless look on his face. On the surface, he shook his head as if he was compromising. In fact, this was what Li Ran wanted.

After all, if Natasha really left in an understanding manner, that would be the thing that would make it difficult for him.

"Axing, just say what you want to say. Maybe there is something that needs SHIELD's help."

Shaking his head, Ye Wen said with a relieved expression.

"Okay, since you said so, Master Ye."

The expression on his face hesitated for a moment, and then Ah Xing considered it and continued: "Although the seal has been strengthened, but without... the lack of Teacher Wu Tian's power, the seal will not be able to function as well as in the past, and there will be gaps. The extraterrestrial demons within the seal are also obviously aware of this, and the number of times they collide with the seal has increased several times compared to the past. For this reason, [Jiu Sword Immortal] has to personally sit in and use immortal magic to maintain the breach in the seal..."

Ah Xing's words clearly stated the problems Penglai encountered at this time.

Natasha frowned at the side. She didn't think that this was a matter about Penglai and had nothing to do with SHIELD. After all, there was an existence in New York that sealed the extraterritorial demon [Shukaku].

Moreover, from Jiuyou's previous actions, New York was obviously a place where they were active.

Natasha couldn't guarantee that if there was another problem with Penglai's seal, Jiuyou would take the opportunity to carry out sabotage in New York again.

"Is there nothing Penglai can do?"

Thinking of this, Natasha couldn't help but frown and asked.

Since Penglai arranged for Ah Xing to come to New York, it means that there is a solution to the seal.

"Of course."

Seeing Natasha's cooperation, Axing immediately took the question and answered it.

Natasha: "What is it?"

"Because the gap and breach appeared in the seal because Penglai lacked the power of immortals to maintain it, after discussions among the immortals in Penglai, they decided to let me find the reincarnation of the previous generation of immortals and bring them back to the world. Penglai fills the loophole in the outer demon seal."

[From Natasha’s legend...]

"Reincarnation?!"

Azing's words made Natasha's expression change.

Although he had a certain understanding of the power of Immortal Penglai, the super agent of S.H.I.E.L.D. could not hide the shock on his face when the concept of reincarnation came up.

Natasha naturally knew the meaning of reincarnation. Although the idea of ​​reincarnation was not popular in the West, as an agent she had been exposed to many religions, including introductions related to reincarnation.

It was precisely because she knew it that she was particularly surprised by what Ah Xing said.

"You mean, the immortals in Penglai can continue to exist through reincarnation?"

“It’s not that simple.

"

After successfully gaining a lot of fame from Natasha through the news of reincarnation, Ah Xing continued to maintain his appearance, shaking his head and saying with an 'honest' face: "Reincarnation is a very difficult thing after all, and there are all kinds of things involved in it. Unexpectedly, even as an immortal, there is no way to guarantee success. The reason why the previous generation of immortals made the decision to reincarnate was because they had to make a decision after being injured in the battle and were forced to reincarnate."

Azing's answer made Natasha feel a little relieved, because it could be seen from his words that not all immortals in Penglai could easily reincarnate. Although, even so, being able to do this still shocked her, and she could even imagine the expression on Nick Fury's face when he learned the news.

"Since you appear in New York, Ah Xing, does that mean Penglai has confirmed that the reincarnation of the immortal is in New York?"

Seeing that Natasha was still immersed in the news about the reincarnation of the immortal, Ip Man immediately spoke and started the plot.

"According to the immortal's speculation, this is indeed the case."

Nodding, Axing admitted.

Immediately afterwards, he had a bitter expression and scratched his head helplessly: "However, because the reincarnation process of the previous generation of immortals was too hasty and did not leave many clues, so even if you already know his reincarnation, In New York, I couldn't find his specific location for a while."

"Maybe SHIELD can help with that."

Hearing Ah Xing's distress, Natasha immediately restrained her emotions and spoke hurriedly.

Regarding Penglai's attitude, SHIELD's basic position has always been to maintain friendship, not to mention that it also involves the seals about extraterritorial demons. Natasha naturally hopes that these seals can be as strong as possible.

After all, they have already seen what it looks like after the seal is broken. Shukaku's power is obviously not something that the Avengers in front of them can compete with.

"About the immortal's reincarnation, are there any other important clues besides the fact that the other party is in New York?"

Although he promised to help Penglai find the so-called Immortal Turn, New York is a huge city after all, with an even larger population. Even if SHIELD wants to find the other party in the vast sea of ​​people, it still needs help from clues.

"As for clues, there are quite a few, but the most important one mentioned by the island owner is..."

Hearing Natasha's question, Axing turned his head and looked at Ip Man. Seeing Ip Man's gentle look, he hesitated and said: "...It can be eaten."

"Can it be eaten?"

Faced with the imitative hint given by Ah Xing, even Natasha, a super agent of S.H.I.E.L.D., looked stunned. She twitched the corner of her mouth before continuing to ask: "Is there a more accurate tip?"

Ah Xing: "It's particularly delicious, does it count?"

Natasha: "..."

[From Natasha’s legend...]

…

"One portion, no, two portions of golden ratio shaomai."

Stark Industries, in front of the red food truck.

Tony looked at [Xie Lu] in the car and placed the order casually.

Turning his head and scanning the surrounding customers, Tony nodded slightly: "It looks like business is good."

Then, he put away his gaze, looked at [Jie Lu] who was still silent, and said habitually: "To be honest, haven't you ever considered opening a restaurant specifically? With your cooking skills, if If you open a restaurant, the business will definitely be even more prosperous than it is now. If you are worried about money, I can completely pay for it and help you prepare a restaurant. All you need to do is bring your own cooking skills. Well, what do you think of my proposal?"

"Your three portions of golden ratio shaomai."

Faced with the superior conditions offered by Tony, [Xie Lu] still maintained his silent persona and placed the baked shaomai in front of the other party, obviously intending to use the shaomai to block this enthusiastic billionaire. mouth.

"I have good intentions."

Seeing that [Jie Lu] ignored his proposal as always, Tony couldn't help but curl his lips.

If it were anyone else who dared to have such an attitude towards him, Tony would never look too good on his face.

But there was nothing he could do about the [Jie Lu] in front of him. Who knew the other party's golden ratio Shaomai was so delicious?

Ever since he tasted the golden ratio of siomai, Tony's favorite junk food burger has been pushed to fourth place.

"I only ordered two."

Lowering his head and looking at the paper bag containing Shaomai in front of him, Tony couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.

"There's another one for Happy. How is he doing?"

After hearing Tony's words, [Jie Lu] answered without thinking.

Hearing [Jie Lu]'s words, Tony couldn't help but soften the expression on his face, and he couldn't help but feel a little warm in his heart.

After a period of recovery, Happy, who was injured in the explosion of the Extremis virus user, has recovered and returned to his work again. Although Tony strongly requested that the other party be promoted, Happy never agreed to his request and continued to work in his original position.

"Happy is recovering well. During his time in the hospital, he even gained a few pounds more than before he was hospitalized."

A smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, and Tony replied with a smile. He subconsciously reached out and folded the paper bag containing the siomai and picked it up.

"I wouldn't do that if I were you."

However, at this moment, a slightly childish voice suddenly sounded in Tony's ears.

Hearing this voice, the expression on Tony's face was obviously paused. He looked around and then saw an Asian child with black hair and eyes in front of him, looking at him with an old-fashioned expression.

"Hey kid, you talking to me?"

Looking at the child appearing in front of him, Tony couldn't help but wonder.

"Of course, besides you, is there anyone else holding Shaomai like this?"

Hearing Tony's recovery, the child nodded and said in a grown-up tone: "The key to Shaomai is water vapor, especially the golden ratio of Shaomai made by Master [Jie Lu]. The so-called golden ratio not only refers to The proportion in the selection of materials depends more on the timing of the siomai coming out of the steamer, which is just right in proportion. And your method of sealing the siomai with a paper bag, although on the surface it can achieve the golden ratio of siomai It won't cool down too quickly, but it actually makes the original perfect taste of the siomai greatly compromised due to the constant steam coming out. At the same time, the smell of the paper bag penetrates into the siu mai. It's simply the golden ratio of siu mai. The biggest damage, having diners like you is simply the biggest blasphemy to Master [Jie Lu]’s cooking skills and the golden ratio of Shaomai!”

"In my opinion, guys like you and those who don't know how to respect cooking are not qualified to taste the craftsmanship of Master [Jie Lu]."

After saying a lot of things plausibly and indignantly in front of Tony, the child turned his head and looked at [Jie Lu] in the fast food restaurant: "Master [Jie Lu], I suggest that you don't do it again from now on. Sell ​​the shaomai to this guy in front of you who doesn't know how to respect your cooking!"

[From the legend of Tony Stark...]

Although he didn't know the origin of the child who suddenly appeared in front of him, Tony was obviously not in a good mood after hearing the other person scolding him unceremoniously in front of him.

He frowned and looked at the annoying kid in front of him. He looked at [Jie Lu] in the food truck with a displeased expression and asked in a bad tone: "Who is this annoying kid?"

After hearing Tony's inquiry, [Jie Lu] withdrew his eyes from the child in front of him, maintained his character, and said in a deep voice: "He is a child who wandered here recently. I thought he was pitiful, so I took him in. He helps in my fast food restaurant, tidying up, and doing some cooking. This kid is very talented in cooking."

"Wandering."

After hearing [Jie Lu]'s answer, Tony looked at the child in front of him again, and the original displeasure in his eyes weakened and turned into a little pity.

No matter what, for such a young child to be forced to wander, there must be something he has experienced that he doesn't know about.

Thinking of the suffering the other party might have suffered, Tony was silent for a moment and was about to say something.

On the other side, the child spoke again, pointing at Tony in front of him: "Master [Jie Lu], I have been staring at this guy since just now, but you haven't paid for the shaomai he has until now. You have to be careful. He eats King’s meal.”

[From the legend of Tony Stark...]

Sure enough, no matter what the reason for wandering, it can't change the fact that the kid in front of him is annoying.

Hearing the child's plausive reminder, Tony twitched the corners of his mouth and finally suppressed the anger rising in his heart.

He, Tony Stark, a billionaire, Iron Man, would actually be treated as a king's meal.

"Master [Jie Lu], look at his expression. It's obvious that he is going to have a seizure and wants to take advantage of the situation and refuse to pay!"

However, just as Tony's anger subsided, the annoying kid's voice from the other side rang out again.

Successfully, the Iron Man experienced the feeling of encountering him as his opponent.
