With the help of Qingying, Nangong Ruyu shot down two wild wolves that day.
The big thing weighing several hundred kilograms is enough to feed four people and an eagle for several days. Although the wolf meat is a little tough and a bit raw, Li Xiuyuan believed that Ren used his own skills to marinate it with spices and it would still be good.
Only Qingying was the happiest. He flapped his wings and said, "I can finally have a full meal of meat. Well, I can eat it with my belly open."
Li Xiuyuan looked at her speechlessly, thinking to himself, when have you ever been hungry? You are Qingying, can't you find something to eat by yourself?
It was still early in the morning, and it was only halfway through the sunset. Li Xiuyuan and his party had already returned to Wangyue Stream.
The master looked at the two wild wolves weighing hundreds of pounds on the ground and said with a smile: "This is enough for us to eat for more than ten days. There is nothing good in the mountains, only these wild beasts."
The woman in white looked at Li Xiuyuan dragging his inconvenient left leg and asked softly: "Is this what Jun Wuyou was injured by? It's been a few years, is it still not healed?"
Li Xiuyuan cut open the wolf skin and said with a faint smile: "It's good to get used to it. It makes me remember not to heal the scar and forget the pain. I will get back this debt with my own hands sooner or later."
The Master looked at the two of them and smiled: "Do your own thing and seek your own hatred! These are my students."
Nangong Ruyu looked at Li Xiuyuan's appearance and couldn't help but asked softly: "Master, do you want Yu'er to seek justice for you?"
When Li Xiuyuan heard this, he couldn't help but laugh: "He is not a master of the distraction realm. You can't beat him... I will one day get double the amount back from him."
The woman in white felt her heart skip a beat, thinking what a majestic ambition this was. With Jun Wuyou's cultivation level in the broken void state in front of him, it will only be higher in a few years.
The Li Xiuyuan in front of him didn't look afraid at all. No wonder he said that he had to take his revenge slowly, as he was afraid that his daughter would not be able to catch up with Jun Wuyou's cultivation after ten more years of training.
After cleaning up the wolf meat, Li Xiuyuan went into the house and found a wooden basin to marinate the wolf meat. If he couldn't finish it, he had to bake it overnight, otherwise it would become smelly meat after two days. It was summer now.
Qingying and Nangong Ruyu took some firewood from the back of the house and placed it next to the mountain stream opposite the stone house. There was a pile of stones that Li Xiuyuan and his wife had built before, which was now used for barbecue.
Looking up, I saw that the You hour had passed, the sun was setting, and the light was getting darker.
Nangong Ruyu took out the firewood, lit the firewood she brought, then turned to look at Li Ye and asked, "Master, do you still have wine?" Subconsciously, she asked habitually.
After all, whether he was in Xuantian Temple or Tianshan, Li Ye was never short of wine. His master was the disciple of the Five Realms Wine Maniac, and even he himself had learned how to make wine, but he was just in a bad mood and too lazy to do it.
Looking at Nangong Ruyu's expression and hearing what she said, Li Xiuyuan couldn't help but be stunned. How did the woman in front of her know that she had alcohol on her body? The master didn't say anything about it, and he didn't seem to have told them either?
"How did you know there was alcohol on me?" Li Xiuyuan thought for a while and asked softly.
"Yu'er made wine with the master back then. I know how to make wine because the master taught me. It's just that I have been in a bad mood and wasted these years. I probably won't remember how to do it again."
Speaking of this, Nangong Ruyu showed a look of regret.
Li Xiuyuan raised his empty eyes and stared blankly into the sky. It took a long time before he gradually woke up from the shock.
He looked at Nangong Ruyu with a complicated expression and said with a smile: "Being able to make wine is really a wonderful thing!"
Then he looked at her and said, "You came a little late. If you had come a month earlier, you could still make wine with me. It's already out of season."
When Nangong Ruyu heard this, she couldn't help laughing, looked at him and replied: "The master said that when brewing wine in spring, because the temperature is low, it can ferment slowly, so that the brewed wine will be delicious."
Li Xiuyuan chuckled and said: "It seems that the master you are looking for is also an interesting guy. I would like to meet him. Even the winemaking is in the same season as me..."
The master glanced at the woman in white, but couldn't hide the shock in his heart.
Could it be that his disciples really came from the Five Realms, and did something go wrong during the ascension process? Otherwise, why had he never heard him talk about his parents? In his memory, he only had the old Taoist priest who ascended and left?
Thinking of this, even the Master couldn't help but tremble. He looked at the woman in white and asked, "Are there two people in this world who look the same and have very similar habits?"
The woman in white had long discovered that something was wrong with Li Xiuyuan. That guy Li Ye was the apprentice of an alcoholic, and the Li Xiuyuan in front of him also knew how to make wine. It was too similar!
How could Li Xiuyuan know what the two people behind him were thinking? He just looked at Nangong Ruyu and asked, "How distracted are you from your cultivation practice now?"
When Nangong Ruyu heard this, she blushed and said, "Well, I'm already at the fifth level of distraction..."
Afraid of hitting Li Xiuyuan, Nangong Ruyu's voice was so low when she said this that it was almost inaudible.
Li Xiuyuan thought for a while, looked at her and said with a smile: "Well, I'll help you tonight and let you break through another level. This way you will have the ability to protect yourself when you travel around the world in the future."
When Nangong Ruyu heard this, she couldn't help but ask: "Why did the master say that?"
Li Xiuyuan shook his head, looked at her and laughed: "I think back then, I came down from Luoxia Mountain and wanted to make a living in the world, but I ended up being caught by a group of bandits and sold as a fat sheep..."
When Nangong Ruyu heard this, he also made him laugh, looking at him and giggling. "I didn't expect that the master, who is so powerful, would be captured by a little bandit and used as a fat sheep. It's so pitiful!"
The woman in white looked at the two people and the eagle guarding the fire, and smiled with the master: "I didn't expect the fate of this little guy... It doesn't make sense, right? The guy I knew back then was The state of his body is unbelievably strong..."
The master looked at her, shook his head, and said softly: "Everything has its own will, who knows what the will of heaven here is?"
He didn't want to say much about Li Xiuyuan, and gently avoided all questions.
The half-moon climbed up, and the barbecue on the charcoal fire turned golden brown, dripping with oil.
Li Xiuyuan glanced at the Master and said, "Teacher, that's all. Do you want a drink?"
The master was amused and said with a smile: "It's rare to have barbecue here, and there are guests coming from far away, so naturally they want to have a drink."
Nangong Ruyu helped move the table under the eaves to the edge of the fire. Li Xiuyuan went back to the house to get a jar of wine, bowls and chopsticks and other things.
The Master took the wine handed over by Li Xiuyuan, patted it open gently, sniffed it, looked at the woman in white and said with a smile: "This was brewed by Li Xiuyuan last spring, there are not many left."
Smelling the faint aroma of wine emanating from the wine vat, the woman in white felt a sense of déjà vu. He looked at the Master and said with a smile: "This is a blessing for us mother and daughter."
The master picked up the wine jar and poured only three glasses. Then he raised the wine glass, looked at the woman in white and said with a smile: "It is fate that we meet. Please try the rough wine from our mountains."
Nangong Ruyu stretched out her hand to pick up the wine glass on the table, but was held back by Li Xiuyuan. He shook his head with her and handed the glass of wine to Ying'er.
He said softly: "This is not the drink I gave you."
After speaking, he picked up an empty cup from the table and put it in front of him. With a flick of his hand, a wine jar appeared in his hand. He gently opened the lid and poured it into the cup.
Nangong Ruyu felt a strong aroma of medicine coming to her nose. She couldn't help but stretched out her hand to straighten the cup, looked at Li Xiuyuan and asked, "Master, what kind of wine is this?"
Li Xiuyuan shook his head and said calmly: "This is the medicinal wine I brewed when I was bored...I usually drink too much, and there are only two glasses left in front of me. You just happened to be here..."
Li Xiuyuan didn't explain too much, he just told the story of accidentally picking the elixir in the mountains.
Nangong Ruyu only heard that there were only two cups left, and she was secretly happy. She held the cup and drank the medicinal wine in one gulp. She suddenly felt a flame rushing into her belly.
He smiled slightly and said: "Wow! Master, your brewing skills are getting better and better. This is not drinking. It's like a fire, it's too strong!"
Li Xiuyuan looked at her and smiled without saying a word.
Patting her chest, Nangong Ruyu looked at Li Xiuyuan and asked, "Isn't there another glass? Can you give it to my mother to try?" With the wine in front of her, the little girl remembered her mother.
How could Li Xiuyuan dare to give the woman in white a drink? Not even the Master would dare.
Shaking his head, Li Xiuyuan replied: "One cup of this medicinal wine will not have any effect. Two cups will help you break through the situation!"
Finding a reason, Li Yeyuan gently avoided the woman in white. I thought to myself, you are already so powerful, so don’t compete with children for opportunities.
Upon hearing this, the woman in white looked at Li Xiuyuan and smiled with satisfaction: "Yes, Yu'er, you have to seize the opportunity in front of you. Maybe if you drink this cup of medicinal wine, you will be able to catch up with your senior sister in a short time."
Upon hearing this, the master smiled and said: "A few days ago, the little girl from the Dachu Kingdom came here to find me as an apprentice. She also drank two glasses of wine and broke through the second level overnight. Little girl, I am optimistic about you!"
"Dachu's? Could it be Sister Feiyan?" Nangong Ruyu looked at Li Xiuyuan and asked.
"Do you know her? Her brother is practicing in the academy. He is my friend..." Li Xiuyuan briefly told the two about the little fat man and Chu Feiyan who came to see him.
When Nangong Ruyu heard this, she couldn't help but exclaimed. She looked at the woman in white and said with a smile, "Mom, if I can break through the second realm, wouldn't I be almost the same as my senior sister?"
The master pointed to the roasted meat on the table and said with a smile: "Eat meat, eat and drink well, and then talk slowly, the future will be long!"
The woman in white took a deep look at Li Xiuyuan and said seriously: "Come, let's have a drink! Thank you young gentleman for giving Yu'er the opportunity!"
The master and Li Xiuyuan picked up the cups. Qingying lowered his head and looked into the cup. The woman in white smiled and said, "Thank you for meeting me. Let's have a drink."
After drinking a glass of medicinal wine, Nangong Ruyu's face turned red. Li Xiuyuan cut two pieces of meat, handed one to her and the other to Qingying, and said with a smile: "Eat as much as you want. Once I'm full, I'll have to spend a whole night to cook it." The rest was roasted.”
The woman in white stretched out her hand and cut two pieces of meat, gave one to the master, put the other into her bowl, and said softly: "The fate in this world is interesting."
The master drank a glass of wine, ate a piece of meat, looked at Li Xiuyuan and said with a smile: "Old man, the most proud thing in my life is to accept Li Xiuyuan as my disciple. The fate between people is really wonderful."
Nangong Ruyu cut up all the meat and put it in Li Xiuyuan's bowl, and said with a smile: "Master's barbecue skills are getting better and better."
Li Xiuyuan looked at her and shook his head. After she had eaten two pieces of meat, he poured the last glass of wine into her glass.
He also picked up the cup and took a sip of the wine. He looked at her and smiled and said, "It's the spices that are good. Everyone's barbecue skills are the same."
Ying'er on the side yelled: "Li Xiuyuan, pour me another glass, don't be stingy!"
Li Xiuyuan knocked her head gently and said with a smile: "What if you are smaller than me after you transform?"
Upon hearing this, Qing Ying muttered: "We'll wait until we transform." After speaking, he raised his head and glanced at the Master.
The master looked at her and laughed: "Even if she is younger than you, you can't bully her. Remember, you can't bully her just because the teacher is not with you."
Li Xiuyuan glared at her, looked up at the new moon in the sky, and said quietly: "Yu'er, eat two more pieces of meat, drink this wine, and feel the opportunity to break through tonight."
The woman in white looked at him and replied seriously: "Don't worry, I'm here!"
