To Jing Yingrong, erasing the hole bugs was just a thought. After the Hollow Worm died, Ji Yanzhu's slightly regretful voice came from the sea of consciousness:
"What a pity. If it hadn't killed the mirror, I could have kept it for fun. I've never seen such a monster before."
Ji Sha Jian sneered: "There are so many monsters I haven't seen before, what's the fun?"
Jiyanzhu: "Monster beasts that are good at space magic are relatively rare, don't you think so?"
Jijie Pen: "It is indeed rare, but who would let it attack the mirror for no reason."
Jing Yingrong was looking at the thin threads wrapped around various parts of her body. As soon as the hollow insect died, these filaments became rootless trees. After breaking away from the insect body, they scattered and slipped from her body.
She moved her eyes downwards and scanned the monks under the clouds. Her eyes paused briefly on a few familiar faces, and then let the thin threads fall down.
Then, with a flash of her spiritual power, she returned to Xingyou Island directly with the body of the Hollow Worm.
"Huh? Why did you come back suddenly?"
Ji Shajian asked, Ji Yanzhu and Ji Jie Brush were also puzzled.
The spiritual senses of Ji Qing Hairao and Ji Yu Pao, who had just entered the sea of consciousness, asked successively:
"Is there a problem?"
"What is this you brought back?"
Ji Jie Bi briefly described what happened before, while Jing Ying Rong looked at the corpse of the Hollow Worm at close range while answering Ji Sha Sword's question:
"It has too much space power condensed in its body, which is repellent to the storage equipment. It is not easy to store and needs to be processed as soon as possible."
After saying that, she stretched out her hand toward the outer building.
A jade slip flew out from a certain floor of the building and landed in the palm of her right hand.
The surface of the jade slips flashes with golden characters—
"Food Treasures".
There is a signature below: written by Taotie Sanren.
She penetrated with her spiritual consciousness and found a certain content in the jade slip, and projected it on the sea of consciousness for the artifact spirits to read.
"It seems that it must be a cave worm, but when compared with this record, there seems to be some discrepancies, perhaps due to individual differences."
This is what Jijiebi said.
Jing Yingrong was thinking about something and was noncommittal.
Ji Shajian muttered: "Why does this write so much like a recipe..."
Jing Yingrong: "It's the recipe."
Ji Sha Sword: "..."
Ji Yanzhu: "Is this Taotie Sanren the one who invited Li Chengkong to eat the Hollow Worms?"
Jing Yingrong: "It's him."
She looked at the jade slip in her hand.
"Taotie San was fond of spiritual food and delicacies, and was good at cooking. He compiled his lifelong cooking skills into a classic, and this is the "Food Treasures Record". It is an only copy and has not been handed down to the world."
Ji Yupao: "How come the orphan is here with Li Chengkong?"
"He used it in exchange for meat. He used all his wealth, including his life's hard work, to exchange for a piece of meat."
“What meat is worth this price?”
Just as Ji Shajian asked, a flash of inspiration suddenly occurred, and he asked in shock: "Could it be Li Chengkong's flesh?!"
Jing Yingrong said "hmm".
"..."
Ji Yanzhu: "He also likes to eat human flesh?"
Jing Yingrong answered "Yes" and added: "He once said, 'Demons can be eaten, and humans can be eaten.' The more powerful the creature, the more he wanted to cook it. But he didn't dare to do this If he kills someone, he is afraid of being the target of public criticism, so he will obtain human flesh in exchange.”
"That's it. Well, how much meat did Li Chengkong cut for him?"
Jing Yingrong raised his left hand and made a fist with it.
Ji Sha Sword: "A piece of meat as big as a fist? Is he so generous?"
Jing Yingrong shook his head and raised his white little finger.
Jijie Pen: "Meat the size of a little finger? It's pretty..."
"no."
Jing Yingrong interrupted its words.
She curled her little finger and pointed the nail towards herself.
"It's about the size of a fingernail on your little finger."
After a pause, he continued: "It will grow back soon."
All the souls in the sea of consciousness were silent.
After a while——
"It won't kill him."
"When he made you a human body, even if he blew up the furnace, it would damage more than just this bit of flesh and blood..."
"This is not a piece of meat, it's clearly a bit of minced meat."
"...It's hard to tell who made the profit in this transaction."
Among the joking discussions about Kongji Taoist Master, only Ji Qinghao’s focus is different:
"If Taotie Sanren were alive today and knew about your existence, Mirror, he would also trade you for his flesh."
Jing Yingrong quickly retracted her extended little finger, clenched her fists to her chest, and said resolutely: "I won't change."
The giant tree stretched out a soft branch and caressed her head, "Okay, I won't change it."
Ji Shajian thought of the hollow insect corpse that was left hanging aside.
"What are you going to do with this thing?"
Jing Yingrong did not hesitate and shook the jade slip in her hand:
"Eat it."
"ah?!"
"The spiritual food made from it is very spiritual and may be effective for me."
"Are you going to follow this recipe?"
"Um."
Ji Shajian still wanted to say something, but Ji Yupao said at this time: "Jing Jing has learned the skills of human cooking food? It's amazing!"
"Learn? Come on!"
Ji Shajian became excited upon hearing this, and his tone was inexplicably exciting: "I won't even eat anything she makes!"
Jing Yingrong: "..."
However, the expected teasing and banter did not come. Ji Yupao snorted and said with great disdain: "How can a mere ordinary animal understand the taste of delicious food?"
Yawenba
"...Are you serious?" Ji Shajian couldn't believe it.
Ji Yupao snorted again.
"Why not? The mirror is a master of mysticism, and every move is consistent with the principles of creation. The food made is extraordinary. Those ordinary animals that have not yet developed their spiritual intelligence taste like cows chewing peonies and wasting natural resources?"
It has a completely natural and unquestionable tone.
Before Ji Sha Jian could find the words to refute, he heard Ji Qing Hairpin's sincere words: "Sha, how can you judge Mirror's craftsmanship by the taste standards of human livestock and poultry? Besides, living beings in the world can eat food cooked by Mirror's own hands. Food is their opportunity. If they don't eat it, it is equivalent to giving up the opportunity. If they don't take it, they will be blamed. They are destined to be ordinary animals."
"I said you two..."
Ji Sha Jian was at a loss for words and had to choke on his words.
However, Ji Yanzhu responded with a sudden realization: "It sounds quite reasonable."
Now Jijiebi couldn't stand listening anymore, and it was rare that he stood on the same front as Jishajian:
"The human race has the word 'pampering', and I finally realized its meaning today."
"Don't talk nonsense. Jie, I forgot to mention you just now. The way of space is obviously your forte. Why didn't you stop this demon from intruding and actually let it offend the mirror?!"
"It's just because I'm good at the art of space. I was sure it wouldn't hurt the mirror, so I didn't care about it. It's obviously just fun, so why should I offend it?"
"That won't work. No matter how powerful the mirror is, you can't be so dependent on it."
"I'm too lazy to listen to your nonsense. Come on, come and fight me. Whoever wins will listen!"
"Okay, okay, let's fight! Let's fight! I want to come too!"
"If you want to fight, fight outside. You can fight in a place as big as the Endless Void."
Ever since Ji Sha Sword and Ji Yu Pao faced each other, Jing Yingrong ignored them and focused on rummaging through the storage ring.
According to "Food Treasures", in order to make hollow worms into spiritual food dishes, thousands of rare materials are needed, and the flames and fuels used, as well as the materials of tools, etc. are very particular.
Jing Yingrong found almost all the materials. Almost because there were still a few items that were not in the ring but were still close at hand.
She ignored the imminent battle in the sea of consciousness and said directly to Ji Yanzhu:
"I want to use two kinds of fire, 'Snow Flowing Gold' and 'Earth Yuan Heart'."
Ji Yanzhu, who was busy fanning the flames, immediately forgot about the fight and simply responded: "No problem, here you go!"
Its body flew out of Jing Yingrong's arms, spun around, and two flames emerged out of thin air, one on the left and one on the right.
The mass on the left is pure white in color, erratic and moving, giving people a sense of illusion, except for the golden heart of the flame, which is extremely solid; the mass on the right is deep red and faintly black, not like a flame, but like a distorted heart.
After this interruption, the other people who were having a heated argument stopped and all turned their attention to what Jing Yingrong wanted to do.
Jing Yingrong then said to Ji Qinghao: "I also want more 10,000-year-old Five Element Grass, Salt Plum Fruit, White Fairy Mustard Wood, and Misty Star Buds and Leaves."
"As long as they are ten thousand years old? There are quite a few of these things that are one hundred thousand years old. There are also a few two to three hundred thousand year old ones in the White Fairy Mustard Tree. Do you want to get them together?"
Without waiting for Jing Yingrong to answer, Ji Yupao said: "Of course, the higher the year, the better. The spiritual food produced in this way must have stronger spiritual energy and be more beneficial to her."
Jing Yingrong thought for a while and had no objection.
Not long after, a bunch of spiritual plants that had grown for more than 100,000 years were placed in front of her.
Beside the hollow insect corpse, all the materials were lined up and ready.
The reflection in the mirror floats in the sky, as if everything is under control.
She never expected that the setback would come so quickly.
"What's the right amount?"
“A half spoon is half of what kind of spoon?”
"A little, how much do you mean?"
"Is this a small fire?"
"..."
…
