In the evening, Ye Hong took Feng Shuting back to his room and closed the doors and windows.
"Junior brother, what are you doing?" Feng Shuting was puzzled.
"You should be aware of the current situation. Brother Nangong also said at the dinner just now that Huang Fangwu was only called back today because of a family emergency.
After the Huang family's affairs are settled, maybe Huang Fangwu will come to see me again. Now we have to leave Blazing City as soon as possible. I have also sent people to find out the news about the Lava Fire Spider. Let's leave now. "
Feng Shuting saw Ye Hong putting the newly written letter on the table and pulling her to leave. Seeing that it was still dark outside, Feng Shuting was a little confused.
"Now?"
"Yes! Let's go out from the back door of Nangong Mansion during the dark night and secretly leave Blazing Fire City. If we don't leave, we will wait for Huang Fangwu to come again tomorrow. If he follows him every day, how can we leave?"
Then the two of them walked out of the room and walked towards the back door of Nangong Mansion. Ye Hong was afraid that Huang Fangwu would leave a spy at the gate, so he chose to sneak away through the back door of Nangong Mansion.
On their way to the back door, Ye Hong and the others met Nangong Ling who was still wandering outside.
"Hey! Mr. Ye, Sister Feng, where are you going?"
Ye Hong suddenly stopped and said, "It's Miss Ling! We just ate too much at night and wandered around to eat. Why are you here alone? Why don't you go back and rest."
"If you're in a bad mood, come out and take a walk. Can you guys go for a walk with me?"
Ye Hong hesitated for a while, but finally agreed, and the two stayed to chat with Nangong Ling for a while.
"Second Miss Nangong, have you encountered anything troublesome?"
"It's not an annoyance, I just feel like I'm useless sometimes. After practicing for so many years, I haven't done much to help my family. I can't protect my sister when she's in danger. It's also my fault that I'm too low in cultivation to help. I’m busy, but I’ve also been practicing very hard!”
"I can't blame you. After all, things are fickle and there are always things that you can't solve. You just have to do your best."
"I can't help at all, and I always make my family worried, so what's the point of my hard work in cultivation?" Nangong Ling was still in a low mood.
Ye Hong enlightened: "The meaning of cultivation is different for everyone. Some people pursue the ultimate cultivation level, a higher realm, and self-breakthrough; some people are just pushed by fate, so that they have to practice and become stronger;
Others may just want to live a little longer and spend the rest of their lives with the people they love; others may just want to practice to become stronger, protect the people around them, and protect them;
Some people even want to get rid of the shackles of fate and be able to control their own destiny, etc. Only he himself knows the meaning of each person's cultivation. Because of different pursuits, different visions, and different environments, the meaning will be different.
The same is true in life. Only when you are clear about what you want and what you want to protect can you find the meaning of your existence.
You said that you have been cultivating very hard, but maybe there are people somewhere you don’t know who are working harder than you, going through all kinds of pains and hardships, just to make a little more progress.
In fact, you have done a good job yourself, right? You should feel proud that your cultivation has surpassed that of many of your peers. It’s not like you haven’t helped your own family or your sister.
You just don't pay attention to those little things, and you don't think that you have done something extraordinary. Don't just be stumped and trapped by the few things in front of you, and feel that you are worthless.
Everything you experience is the best arrangement of fate. Since it has been arranged by fate, why not let yourself live a more free and easy life. If you look down on it, everything is nothing. Just work hard to be yourself. "
"I didn't expect you to understand so thoroughly. Thank you for enlightening me."
Seeing that Nangong Lingming had learned a lot and his mood was no longer so depressed, Ye Hong immediately continued: "The more you read, the more you will understand, and the more you experience, the more you will understand.
Once you've figured it out, go back and rest when you're fine! Sometimes there is no need to practice day and night. Relax yourself properly and have a good sleep. Maybe when you wake up tomorrow, nothing will happen, all worries will be solved, and it will be a brand new day. "
"Okay! Thank you."
Seeing Nangong Ling walking away, Ye Hong took Feng Shuting and continued walking towards the back door.
Feng Shuting asked curiously: "You have said so much, then what is the meaning of your cultivation?"
Ye Hong said calmly: "Me? I used to just think that after practicing, I could fly into the sky and escape from the earth to be more handsome. Now! I just want to live a few more years and go home to marry a wife!"
Feng Shuting couldn't help but laugh at Ye Hong's words.
"Then do you want to know the meaning of my practice?"
Ye Hong said casually: "I don't want to! Do you believe what I just said? I'm just talking nonsense."
"Then I believe it too, I believe everything you say!"
Feng Shuting smiled, put her hands around Ye Hong's arms, and the two left Nangong Mansion.
Ye Hong was afraid that Feng Shuting's appearance would attract too much attention, so after leaving Nangong Mansion, he specifically asked Feng Shuting to follow him invisibly in colorful feather clothes, and finally left Blazing City smoothly.
"Finally leaving the city!"
"Where do we go now?"
"I got the news about the Lava Fire Spider near Huoleng City. It happens that Huoleng City is also on the path of the Wutong Forest where we are going. Let's go to Huoleng City first to see the specific situation."
Then Ye Hong took Feng Shuting on the road overnight and flew towards the direction of Huoleng City with his sword.
Blazing Fire City is still some distance from Huoleng City, and it cannot be reached in a day or two. Ye Hong's cultivation is only at the third level of the Soul Tribulation Realm, and he cannot wield a sword for a long time. He will inevitably have to stop and rest in the middle.
Then the life of sleeping in the open air began again. Only if they happened to pass through some cities, Ye Hong and the two would go to the city to stay in an inn to rest for one night, and then continue setting off the next day without stopping at all.
"The Southern Territory is too big! Flying with a sword is really not a thing. I have to get a flying mount in the future!" Ye Hong took out the map, checked the route, estimated the current location, and complained.
In Blazing Fire City, Ye Hong didn't even think of asking about flying mounts in a hurry. During the past few days on the road, he suddenly felt that it would be better to have a flying mount.
"It is estimated that we will arrive in Huoleng City in two days. Let's ask again in Huoleng City then!"
"That's fine! I just saw a creek nearby. There should be fish. I'll catch a few and cook something delicious for you tonight." Ye Hong smiled mysteriously.
Ye Hong couldn't practice. After resting, he would think about some delicious food to improve his cooking skills. Feng Shuting followed Ye Hong all the way and it was a feast for the eyes.
Ye Hong can always make weird things. In addition to grilled fish, grilled meat, and steamed crabs, there are also chicken stewed with mushrooms, nourishing fish soup, beggar's chicken, bamboo tube rice, braised rice, and various cold dishes.
However, Ye Hong's cooking is not always successful, and everything is delicious. One time, Ye Hong used unknown wild vegetables, and the dish was spicy and bitter. I rinsed my mouth several times and it still felt heavy. The spicy taste.
It was normal for the food to be unpalatable, and Feng Shuting could accept it. She treated it as helping Ye Hong taste the food, but she almost sent them away once.
One time, they ate mushroom stew. Soon after they finished eating, the sky was filled with stars, the earth was spinning, they were swaying, and their spirits fell into a trance.
Fortunately, a chill that penetrated into the bone marrow came from Ye Hong's body, which made Ye Hong wake up. After taking the detoxification pill, he returned to normal.
After Ye Hong caught the fish, he flattened a big tree around it, baked the tree cutouts with fire elements, prepared the dinner plate, took out a large piece of ice from the storage bag, crushed it and placed it on the On the dinner plate.
Then he took out the caught fish and placed it on the tree stump. He took out the frost sword with one hand, held the fish body with the other hand, and started to cut the fish into pieces with the frost sword.
Spread the sliced sashimi flatly on the ice in the dinner plate, and soon the thin sashimi will cover the entire crushed ice in the dinner plate.
"Perfect! It's finally done! Sister Feng, try the ice-carved fish sashimi I made!"
Feng Shuting looked at the fish sashimi served by Ye Hong in surprise. She saw that the entire plate was like an iceberg, with a hint of cold air rising from it. The thin fish meat covered the entire iceberg, crystal clear.
Carefully pick up a piece and put it into your mouth. It is smooth and tender, with a refreshing taste. Because of the effect of the frost sword and crushed ice on the fish, you immediately feel extremely cool and comfortable in the hot southern region.
"It's so delicious! Junior brother, it just feels like there's something missing." Feng Shuting relished the taste of the fish.
Ye Hong also picked up a piece of fish and put it into his mouth, savoring it carefully. Suddenly I thought of something, took out another small bowl and various seasonings from the storage bag, and started to mix it.
After a while, a small plate of dipping sauce was prepared and placed next to the fish sashimi.
"Senior Sister Feng, try dipping a little of this dipping sauce on the fish before eating it!"
Feng Shuting followed Ye Hong's suggestion and dipped it in the dipping sauce before eating it. When the fish entered her mouth again, she suddenly felt that the taste was many times better than before. Simply delicious.
"Junior brother, your craftsmanship is really great!"
"As long as you like it, Senior Sister Feng. It seems that my experiment has been successful again. This Frost Sparkling Sword is not useless at all. At least it is good for cutting meat. It is not dull at all, and it does not stick to the knife. It is not used. Washed." Ye Hong took the Frost Sparkling Sword and looked at it.
If the Frost Sparkling Sword could talk, Ye Honggou would definitely be scolded with blood. Ye Hong could only imagine using the Frost Sparkling Sword, which was once a heaven-level spiritual weapon, to cut meat and cook dishes.
As for asking Ye Hong where the ice cubes came from, just use the Frost Sparkling Sword to insert it into the water and you can get as many ice cubes as you want. The Frost Sparkling Sword has been completely used by Ye Hong as a mobile refrigerator.
When two people are together, no matter how far the journey is, they will never feel bored while traveling, they can talk and laugh. Two days later, the two finally arrived at Huoleng City. The closer they got to Huoleng City, the hotter and hotter they felt.
Ye Hong put away the Ice Soul Bead to feel the surrounding temperature, and quickly took out the Ice Soul Bead again when it was too hot.
"Fortunately, I have the Ice Soul Bead, otherwise I would have been heated to death. Are you okay, Senior Sister Feng?"
"I don't feel too hot. Maybe it's the effect of this colorful feather coat. Besides, I'm always next to you, and the effect of the Ice Soul Pearl also envelopes me."
"I don't know what's going on in the Southern Territory. The closer I get to this place after I left Blazing City, the hotter it gets, like a furnace. I don't even dare to put away the Ice Soul Pearl, so I have to carry it with me all the time. I bought it this time Everything can be used, so I didn’t buy it in vain.”
