About a quarter of an hour later, the dishes were served one after another. They were all eating at Baiyanlou for the first time. Gu Yunchu and the other two felt that the food here was quite delicious.
No one was polite, and every plate was gone. You must know that the portion of Baiyanlou's food is not small, not to mention that few monks can eat enough.
It was just the first time for Bai Yan to meet the previous customer.
Su Zimo and Gu Yunchu both love food and feel that the path to immortality is the only way to live up to it and food. This was also one of the reasons why Su Zimo kept Gu Yunchu in the first place. Who doesn't want someone to cook delicious food for him?
By the time the last plate of food was finished, Ma Baoer and Ma Ling'er were completely exhausted, with contented happiness rippling on their shiny little faces.
The whole dining atmosphere was so relaxed and pleasant that the Ma Baoer brothers and sisters successfully promoted their guest rooms.
After they had had enough wine and food, Gu Yunchu decided to stay at Ma Baoer's house because Gu Yunchu was worried that the people who were chasing them would find them. There were too many people in the inn, so the fewer people there, the safer it would be. Slowly, he agreed to Ma Baoer's suggestion and lived in his house for thirty spiritual stones a month.
To the west of the city, there are well-proportioned houses in Huaihua Lane. At this moment, smoke is curling up from the kitchens. From time to time, there are sounds of conversations and shouts. Children play together in the alley. There are old people sitting on the stones at the door, waiting for their meals. It is warm and harmonious. Although the clothes of the people here are not luxurious, they are also clean and decent. Presumably the residents here live a stable life and every household is happy.
Ma Baoer's house has a cyan wall, a black wooden door, and a pair of copper rings that are exceptionally bright. In the courtyard with two entrances and two exits, there is a large locust tree with gorgeous locust flowers in bloom. The fragrance is so fragrant that Gu Yunchu's eyes shine when he sees the beautiful locust tree flowers.
Gu Yunchu and Su Zimo were arranged to a guest room in the backyard. It was clean and tidy, and they settled down temporarily at Ma Baoer's house.
In his spare time, Su Zimo urged Gu Yunchu to practice. Su Zimo's cultivation was in the late stage of foundation building. Because of Gu Yunchu's disappearance, he had been unable to calm down and practice. In addition to practicing various exercises, he also studied formations. The current formation has been practiced to a small level.
Now that Gu Yunchu is back, Su Zimo's state of mind has finally returned to peace, and he is about to start preparing to form pills.
Qingyun Realm monks need to make sufficient preparations to form pills, and there are many things to prepare. There is only one chance for success or failure. Failure to form the elixir means that the path to immortality will be difficult to continue unless there is another great opportunity. Therefore, most monks who have not formed the elixir choose to marry and have children, passing on what they have learned throughout their lives from generation to generation.
Because Gu Yunchu and Su Zimo were practicing behind closed doors, Ma Baoer and Ma Ling'er had nothing to do, so they continued running to the city gate and squatting in the corner.
Su Zimo has always had a mission, which is to collect materials for refining the Shouyuan Pill. The Su family is a reclusive family, but Su Zimo's Su family is not the Su family in the Qingyun world. The Su family in the Qingyun world is just a side branch of the Su Zimo family.
The Qingyun Realm belongs to one of the three thousand small worlds, and Su Zimo comes from the Su family in the Canghai Realm, one of the middle thousand worlds. Because it was necessary to collect three materials unique to the Qingyun Realm: ice crystals, horned dragon scales, and ten thousand year stalactites, the family spent huge sums of money to send them here. These are the main materials for refining Shouyuan Dan. It is difficult to find the Shouyuan Pill. The main reason is that the materials are difficult to find.
The longevity pill that the Su family wants to refine is a top-grade longevity pill. When the Yuanying monk's life span is about to expire, taking one pill can extend his life span for two hundred years, and can be used in stacks. It is simply the second life of a monk.
The Su family has only one ancestor, who has cultivated to the middle stage of Nascent Soul and has been unable to break through for many years. His lifespan is only about twenty years. This is why Su Zimo was sent to Qingyun Realm.
Once the ancestor of the Su family passes away, the Su family will most likely be occupied and annexed by the feuding Li family. After all, the Li family has two ancestors in the early stage of Nascent Soul. Even if they can't go any further, they still have a few hundred years of longevity.
The ancestors of the Su family have high cultivation level, and the ancestors of the Li family have one more person, so they check and balance each other. If there is a fight, the outcome will most likely be that they both die together. Such a result is unacceptable to both families, so even if the two families are incompatible, they still fight against each other. This is a sea of change. The two most powerful families in the world.
Su Zimo has been searching for news about these spiritual materials in the past few years, but has found nothing so far, which is worrying. So the upset Su Zimo was taken out by Gu Yunchu to relax and go to Baiyan Tower to eat and inquire about news.
This was the second time Bai Yan saw Su Zimo and Gu Yunchu. During this period, Ma Baoer and his sister occasionally brought monks from outside to eat, but they were never invited to the table again.
Another thing that Bai Yan couldn't forget about Su Zimo and Su Zimo was that their CD operation was so surprising. Those two were definitely not short of money. Why did they eat so rudely? They finished the last one, really. First time meeting.
It’s impossible for every dish to be so appetizing, right? So when he saw them again, he couldn't help but greet them: "Two distinguished guests are invited upstairs. There are private rooms in the store today. Fresh mountain products just arrived this morning. Would you like to come and try some?"
"Okay, as long as it's delicious, please recommend it to the shopkeeper. Nine dishes and one soup, one jar of Linghua braised rice, and I'll take away the other ten jars!"
Gu Yunchu quickly ordered food and then went to talk to Su Zimo. She felt bored. Her cultivation had stagnated recently, especially because of the sudden incident and Wangchuan and Jiangli were still at Qingyun College. She was always worried. .
She especially wanted to take Jiang Li and Wangchuan out. She wanted to go with Wangchuan to find the Yellow Spring Water, and she also wanted to take Jiangli to find the soil. These two things are what Wangchuan and Jiangli have always wanted to find, and they will be of great help to their advancement.
After three years of getting along day and night, I have become accustomed to Li's nagging in my ears and Wangchuan's contempt for her. After not seeing each other for so long, my ears are too quiet, which is really a bit unaccustomed.
When Bai Yan came to the kitchen, reported the name of the dish, and then stood aside so contentedly, not seeing the shopkeeper leave for a long time, Gu Yunchu was surprised: "Is there something wrong with the shopkeeper?"
As soon as Bai Yan looked at Gu Yunchu's question, she sat down and said happily: "I recently received news that the secret realm of the ancient fairyland in Qingyun Realm is showing signs of opening. It is estimated that it may be opened at any time in half a month.
Immortal weapons may be born in the secret realm. No matter how bad it is, it is rare to get one of the skills, elixirs, medicines and immortal fruits. If you can get a glimpse of an opportunity to become an immortal, you may not be able to directly cross the middle world and enter the big world directly. If it is directly teleported to the big world, maybe the path to immortality will officially begin, and the avenue can be expected. "
After saying that, he looked at Su Zimo with burning eyes. Su Zimo was also a little moved. He had been wandering around the Qingyun world for so long. If he could not find the materials for the longevity pill, he would have to return to the middle world to face the family crisis. .
The three-year period has long since expired, and it was only because of Gu Yunchu that Su Zimo never left. Because once I leave, it may be hundreds of years before we see each other again. What's more, on the journey of cultivating immortality, one doesn't know which one will come first, tomorrow or the accident.
Hearing what Bai Yan said, she also felt that the Ancient Fairyland could be her last effort. She would have to return to the middle world whether she succeeded or not, so it would be a sure thing to form the elixir by herself. Before leaving, she should leave as much as possible for Gu Yunchu. Just practice resources.
Gu Yunchu didn't know Su Zimo's plan. He was thinking about Wangchuan and Jiangli and how to help them advance. He became interested when he heard about it. Treasure hunting in secret realms was his favorite.
The three of them hit it off immediately and agreed to meet up at Baiyan Tower ten days later. Bai Yan asked the younger brother to take charge of the restaurant directly, while she went to prepare the spiritual beasts and various supplies.
Demonic beasts are rampant in the Luoxia Mountains. The deeper you go, the higher the level of the monsters. The secret realm of the ancient fairyland is located in the Luoxia Mountains, the highest mountain range in the middle of the Luoxia Mountains. In addition to preventing fellow monks from killing people and seizing treasures, they also need to prevent attacks from monster beasts and cultivators. After all, they don't like to reason very much.
Here, Gu Yunchu called Ma Ling'er to prepare daily consumables, while Su Zimo took Ma Bao'er to the most famous blacksmith shop in the city to buy bows and arrows. One of the must-have weapons in the Luoxia Mountains is the Luoxia Cloud-Piercing Arrow.
Two girls went out on the street, and they were having a lot of fun. They wanted to buy steamed buns, pies, crystal grapes, and golden watermelons. After buying food, they wanted to buy something to drink, including good tea and wine. I want to buy, I want to buy that. The two girls were so energetic that they visited all the special neighborhoods in Luoxia City. They were in a crazy buying state for several days.
When he saw something suitable for Ma Ling'er, Gu Yunchu bought it without hesitation. Especially when he saw the clothes shop, the two of them couldn't move. Meeting each other was fate, and this little girl Ma Ling'er was particularly lovable. Gu Yunchu liked her so much that he pampered her like a little princess.
On the evening of the seventh day, Gu Yunchu and Ma Ling'er, who finally felt that they had all the supplies, went home together. When they saw the chaos in Ma Ling'er's house, their first reaction was that something had happened at home. The two of them ran straight away and rushed into the courtyard. They saw a group of fierce men standing in the courtyard. It turned out that the hunting group that Ma Ling'er's father belonged to had returned.
At this time, Ma Baoer's mother was crying in the room. It turned out that Ma Baoer's father, Ma Dong, went into the Luoxia Mountains for hunting with the hunting group a month ago. It was like usual, everyone was hunting some low-level monsters in the periphery. I don't know. What happened this time? I accidentally broke into the cave of a mid-level monster. No one was able to fight against it. They were fighting and running. Ma Dong was a step too slow and one of his legs was bitten off. Fortunately, his companions arrived in time and snatched him back. .
A person is alive but has a broken leg, which is also a blessing among misfortunes. Ma Dong lost his storage bag during the fight. This hunting was equivalent to gaining nothing and losing a leg. As soon as Ma Baoer's wife saw her husband being carried back, she burst into tears. Ma Dongdao didn't care much. After all, he was lucky to be alive, but he could no longer hunt. From now on, his wife and children would have to live a hard life with him.
Ma Ling'er ran into the yard and saw this scene. She threw herself into her father's arms and cried loudly. Gu Yunchu didn't know what to say. After all, it was the first time he met Ma Dong and he wasn't familiar with him. After a while, the fellow hunters who gave him away left together. It was not a good thing to be injured. You couldn't just stay here to eat.
As people left, the small courtyard finally became quiet. The bleeding in Ma Dong's leg had stopped long ago, but there was still a dull pain. After all, the hunters didn't have any good elixirs. When Gu Yunchu saw this, he took out a bottle of blood-replenishing pill and gave it to Ma Ling'er. Ma Ling'er's big wet eyes were filled with gratitude and she immediately poured one pill for her father to take.
Visible to the naked eye, Ma Dong's energy has recovered as before. Except for his broken leg, he still looks very healthy. Seeing this, Ma Baoer's mother burst into tears and laughed, saying that she would make some good wine and food for the master, which shocked Quan Dang.
The family here started talking and laughing again, and Gu Yunchu quietly hid in the house.
Ordinary people are lucky among misfortunes. In this world, strength determines everything. Without strength, you can't even protect yourself, let alone your family.
Gu Yunchu secretly made up his mind that from now on, he would work hard to practice, for himself and for the people he cares about.
Speaking of people he cared about, Su Zimo also prepared travel supplies in duplicate and handed one copy to Gu Gu Yunchu.
Everything is ready and waiting to go!
