"Didn't you buy the key spiritual herbs in the past ten years?" Tong Yi asked doubtfully.
"To be honest with you fellow Taoists, I really haven't bought many good medicines. The big reshuffle ten years ago made many families a little scared. Afterwards, most of them chose to retreat to practice and improve their cultivation instead of going out to do tasks. , where are the spiritual herbs and spiritual ores that are traded?" The eggplant-purple boy's analysis hit the nail on the head.
"Then what is this now?" What Weisheng Suwen meant was, are these families who are practicing in seclusion now starting to go out?
"There are still ten years until the family ranking competition. Nothing is more important than this." The eggplant-purple boy said.
"Fellow Taoist Qie, we are going to a restaurant to taste the delicacies from other continents. Do you want to come with us?" Shen Tuqi invited Qie Zizi.
The eggplant-purple complexion looked wrong, and she quickly shook her head and clapped her hands and said, "Don't—, don't—, you go ahead!"
"Okay! Let's go then!" Yan Feiyue and the others said in a clear tone.
Loongson's goal is also very clear, which is to build the largest and most luxurious restaurant in Xicheng. As soon as they stepped in, the waiter greeted them enthusiastically. Such attentive service really surprised them.
"How many monks have private rooms or are they in the lobby? Our restaurant has everything you need, including food and meat." The waiter perfectly interpreted the word "diligence."
"Let's go to the lobby!" Shentu chose this choice mainly because there was no one eating at any table in the lobby, it was quite clean, and you could still see the street.
"Okay, please invite some monks, and I will serve you spiritual tea." The waiter put down the menu and hurriedly served the tea.
"This menu is quite complete. It has everything from heaven to earth." Godson first picked up the menu and browsed it before saying.
"We haven't eaten many monsters before, let's order some meat!" Yan Feiyue felt that the whole journey was so fast that her mouth was tasteless.
"Okay, then I'll order a roasted duck, a stir-fried chicken, a fresh stewed fish, and finally a hand-caught lamb. Is there anything else you want to add?" Shen Tuqi and Longxin watched together. On the menu, their tastes are very similar, so he can make the final decision on some dishes.
"Order some more vegetarian dishes!" Tong Yi said. She has always paid more attention to nutritional balance.
"Okay, cold lettuce, shriveled beans, and finally spicy tofu, how about that?" Loong Xin asked.
"Okay." Wei Sheng Suwen said.
At this time, the waiter also came over with a teapot. After Shen Tuqi reported the names of the dishes, he added a cup of tea to each of them.
Yan Feiyue only took a sip and was full of praise: "This tea is so fragrant. It seems that I can look forward to this store."
A few people were chatting, and a few more customers came in one after another. They all ordered spiritual tea directly, but they only ordered spiritual tea.
"It seems that this Deling Tea family is famous." Longxin nodded in agreement.
It didn't take long for the seven dishes to be served neatly on the table. The grand occasion of Yan Feiyue's table really surprised the tea guests in the hall, and they all discussed quietly with narrow-eyed expressions.
This made Yan Feiyue and others puzzled, but Qi Guanyu guessed something and put down the chopsticks he picked up.
"Let me have a taste first -" Longxin couldn't wait to pick up a roast duck leg and started to chew it. He was dumbfounded at this moment. He neither swallowed nor vomited, and looked at Shen Tuqi beside him for help.
Shen Tuqi understood immediately and hurriedly gave Xinxin a cup of spirit tea. After seeing her swallow the duck meat smoothly, he asked uncertainly: "Is it difficult to eat?"
"..." Loong Xinsheng nodded helplessly. What he didn't say was that the word "unpalatable" was not enough to describe how unpalatable it was. It was simply fishy and bitter.
"Forget it, don't eat this, eat something else!" Tong Yi picked up a piece of lettuce, but she regretted it as soon as she took it in. She didn't have the endurance, so she just vomited it on the handkerchief and rolled it up. stand up.
No matter how stupid they were, they were sure that the other tea patrons were looking at a good show. They pretended to calmly put down their chopsticks, picked up the spiritual tea and continued to taste it, and then called the waiter.
Wei Sheng Suwen said: "We will take care of the accounts. You can distribute this table of spiritual food to those in need!"
The waiter nodded gratefully. Many guests who had tasted the food did this. Only a few would curse and walk away without paying.
It's not that their restaurant doesn't want to make delicious spiritual food, but that the monks here specialize in cultivation and have no interest in research. And they, a small restaurant, don't have the ability to study the entire system, right?
Yan Feiyue and others drank the last cup of spiritual tea and fled.
When I returned to the inn, I was really laughed at by the purple-colored boy: "Fellow Taoists, how does it taste?"
"Fellow Taoist Qie's decision is wise and powerful!" Longxin gave a thumbs up to the playful young man, then went into his room to meditate.
After Yan Feiyue returned to the room, she asked in confusion: "Guan Guan, don't you know it tastes so bad?"
"I have never eaten spiritual food in the Mortal Continent or the outer continent. The snacks I ate in the Mortal Continent some time ago were okay. I thought the spiritual food in the upper world after so many years is much more delicious." Qi Guanyu was also very helpless.
"Okay! I can only say that the monks here have no pursuit of quality of life." Yan Feiyue sighed.
"If you really want to eat it in the future, Wei Sheng, I, and the Shentu Society will make it." Qi Guanyu took the distressed girl into his arms and comforted him softly.
"Okay! Thank you for your hard work!" Yan Feiyue regained some strength.
The next day, Yan Feiyue, Longxin, and Tong Yi went out by themselves. They went directly to the largest shop selling robes and magical instruments in the West City.
"This building doesn't look like He's Medicine Shop!" Yan Feiyue sighed as she looked at Yu's Weapon Refining Shop written above her head.
Just as Godson was about to agree, he was ridiculed by a female cultivator who passed by: "Where did this country bumpkin come from? He doesn't even know about the Yu family, which is ranked number one in the mainland."
Tong Yi looked at the female cultivator's disdainful eyes and said unhurriedly:
"What? You are from the Yu family, is this shop opened by your family?"
"You——" Suddenly, the female cultivator stuttered angrily.
How could Loongxin give up such a good opportunity to fight as a team? He then mocked: "It turns out it's not your family! Then why are you so arrogant?"
"Where did you come from? We are the third-ranked Ling family in the outer continent." Another female cultivator immediately stood up and reported herself.
"Oh~~, it turns out it's the Ling family -" Loong Xin felt that the word "Ling family" sounded so familiar, but before she finished speaking, the shopkeeper hurriedly came out and persuaded:
"Invite a few Taoist friends inside. If you have anything to say, sit down and have a cup of spiritual tea. Let's talk slowly. The shop is also open for business."
Yan Feiyue and others were still thinking about how to reply, when the two female cultivators opposite them immediately said humbly and politely:
"Shopkeeper Yu, please excuse me, we are leaving now." After the two female cultivators finished speaking, they left without any further hesitation.
Before Yan Feiyue and the others could understand what was going on, they heard Shopkeeper Yu say again: "Please come in with a few fellow Taoists."
Bian followed him in obediently. For no other reason than this, shopkeeper Yu was actually a Jindan cultivator, and the pressure he unleashed made all three of them feel defeated.
After the shopkeeper Yu invited the three of them into the reception room, he personally poured some spiritual tea for Yan Feiyue and the others, and then asked, "What do the fellow Taoists want?"
"Shopkeeper Yu, we want some materials for refining robes, as well as materials for refining hairpins and bracelets." Loong Xin replied obediently.
"Fellow Taoists, please wait a moment. I will have people bring the materials for these fellow Taoists to choose from." Shopkeeper Yu did not care about the previous quarrel at the door of the store, but said in a very easy-going manner.
When shopkeeper Yu went out, Yan Feiyue, Longxin, and Tong Yi looked at each other and breathed a sigh of relief. It was true that the shopkeeper had changed a lot.
The materials that shopkeeper Yu brought over were all good materials, and they were all materials for refining level 5 magic weapons, including thin gauze, smooth silky brocade, clear and cool cotton and linen, as well as gold and silver threads. , colored minerals, colored glaze, everything you need.
Godson chose everything she could. It was when she needed materials to practice her skills that she didn't want too much. After Tong Yi paid a large sum of low-grade spirit stones, she asked the shopkeeper to select some refined products. This is what they need now.
"My fellow Taoists don't know. Most of the magic weapons refined in the outer continent are auctioned. Tomorrow, the Yu Family Artifact Refining Shop and the He Family Pill Shop will jointly hold an auction. If some fellow Taoists are interested, You can come and participate, here are three invitations, one invitation is for two people."
"Thank you so much, Shopkeeper Yu. I will definitely attend tomorrow." After Tong Yi and others said goodbye to Shopkeeper Yu, they went back to the inn directly. The attitude of the shopkeeper was really strange.
"Today's harvest is not bad!" Shen Tuqi sighed as he looked through the storage bag handed over by Loong Xin.
"All the good things are in tomorrow's auction, jointly organized by the He family and the Yu family." Loongson Niu said after drinking a cup of spiritual tea.
"Guan Guan, we went to the Yu Family Artifact Refining Shop today. The shopkeeper named Yu was a little strange. He gave each of us three unknown people an invitation letter." Yan Feiyue took out the invitation letter and handed it to Qi Guanyu.
"Is the shopkeeper's cultivation higher than yours?" Qi Guanyu asked.
"That's right, I am at the fourth level of the Golden elixir. How come he also has the fifth level of the Golden elixir." Yan Feiyue has not forgotten that the Song family only has two monks in the early stage of the Golden elixir, and such a shop owner actually has a middle stage Golden elixir. Cultivation level, this is not surprising.
"Our Qi family has always been ninth in the ranking of big families, the last in the hierarchy, but my father married the youngest daughter of the Fu family who ranked second, and my eldest uncle married the Yu family who ranked first Daughter, the second uncle married the third-ranked daughter of the He family.
The shopkeeper Yu you met today should have come from the inner continent to handle goods. There are two possibilities for his polite treatment today: First, he found that several golden elixir monks suddenly appeared in the outer continent and wanted to win over us. Enter the Yu family and participate in the family ranking competition in the mainland twenty years later.
The second is that he recognized me, but this possibility is very slim. The Yi Rong Dan is not something he can see through with his level of cultivation, so he probably wants to win over me! "
"If you say that, I think it is the first one. Your Qi family has been excluded from the thirty major families. Yu, Fu, and He are all related by marriage to your family, so it is inevitable that they will not be affected. The status quo can still be maintained now, firstly because of its strong strength, and secondly because it may be holding on. The real result can only be announced in the ranking competition in the mainland twenty years later." Wei Sheng Suwen analyzed.
