"I specially picked a river with good water quality to catch the crabs, which are absolutely pollution-free."
King Ginseng came closer with the small wooden table and put it down with a smile on his face.
Cao Yi picked up a fragrant river crab and looked at it. It was indeed the cheapest crab, and the appearance was very average.
“It’s your first time cooking, and you might not do well.”
King Ginseng had a simple and honest smile like that of a movie king.
Cao Yi put down the river crab and said with a smile: "I don't want to eat it, so you can eat it."
Then, with his hands behind his back, he walked outside the Taoist temple.
King Shen watched Cao Yi disappear, scratched his head, and called to everyone: "If the Taoist priest doesn't eat, we will eat."
"Taoist Master, wait a moment"
A girl's voice suddenly sounded.
Everyone followed the sound and looked.
It was none other than Han Ying, one of the five people saved by Cao Yi.
This pretty, heroic young girl had a trace of unnaturalness on her face.
"Come out and say it"
Cao Yi, who had already left the Taoist temple, heard a voice coming from outside.
Han Ying smiled at everyone and walked out of the Taoist temple with brisk steps on her long legs wrapped in jeans.
Cao Yi didn't wait for her outside and had already entered the woods.
Han Ying trotted to catch up.
It is already spring, and the ground is covered with green, like a green carpet, which is very pleasing to the eye.
"Taoist priest?"
Han Ying, who followed, shouted tentatively.
Cao Yi ignored her.
Han Ying did not dare to say any more.
Soon, the two walked through the woods and came to the beach of the island.
The unpleasant fishy smell hit my face.
In just two weeks, Taihu Lake, which had been purified when I first came back, returned to its previous appearance.
Cao Yi slowed down: "Tell me?"
"Taoist Priest, we are very sorry about Taoist Priest Xu."
Han Ying looked apologetic.
Sure enough, among the five people, one came on behalf of the government.
Cao Yi said nothing.
Han Ying continued: "Taoist priest, don't worry, what happened to Taoist priest Xu will not happen again."
"What's your purpose?"
Cao Yi's words are concise and concise.
The legendary river crab was too powerful and he did not want to have too much interaction with the government.
After Han Ying hesitated for a few seconds, she said: "What happened with Daozhang Xu actually reflects a problem. Our level of medical development is very limited, and many things cannot be done. If"
She paused and said carefully: "If the Taoist priest is willing to take action, we can shorten the development time of medical treatment."
“Leap-forward development may not be a good thing.”
Cao Yi said.
In various disaster movies, there are too many tragedies caused by leap-forward development.
Cao Yi doesn't want a biological crisis or an alien crisis to come one day.
Although he can wipe his butt when the time comes, whoever is responsible for the damage that has been caused can still bear the responsibility.
"But we can't stop moving forward just because of the possibility of bad things."
Han Ying whispered.
Cao Yi said nothing.
To be honest, deep down in his heart, he also had some thoughts in this regard.
…
An hour later, the five people left the island, leaving behind a pile of various precious herbs outside.
Just like when he returned to modern times several times before, Cao Yi transferred all the precious herbs to the Gate of Eternal Life.
In the next few days, Cao Yi basically gave Xu Keming guidance.
Xu Ke made it clear that he gained a lot.
Nonsense, a monk who has practiced for several years and has a high level of cultivation can give you step-by-step instructions.
When Cao Yi taught Xu Keming, he was a little envious of Xu Keming. Back then, if someone had taught him step by step, his cultivation level would definitely be more than what it is now.
Over the weekend, Cao Yi also sent Xu Keming to the West Lake, where he was in the innate Five Elements Demon Subduing Formation. The poor water monster clone has completely become a nutrient pool for Cao Yi's followers.
Next, for a month, Cao Yi tried his best to extract substances beneficial to the soul from the flesh and blood of the water monster clone.
Today is a beautiful day with light wind and clear clouds.
Cao Yi, who had accumulated a lot of materials beneficial to the soul, once again recruited Cui Wenzi and Ren Qing from the Gate of Eternal Life space.
Place it on the floor of the shrine.
First, it’s Cui Wenzi.
When a certain amount of substances beneficial to the soul entered Cui Wenzi's sea of consciousness, Cui Wenzi's body, which was originally motionless, began to tremble slightly.
Seeing this, Cao Yi increased the amount, and Cui Wenzi's body began to tremble more and more.
But I don’t know why, but I just don’t wake up.
Suddenly, Cui Wenzi foamed at the mouth, and his soul seemed to explode.
Cao Yi immediately withdrew a certain amount of substances beneficial to the soul, so nothing fatal happened.
"It still doesn't work. Could it be that we can only rely on the evil spirit-melting pill refining method?"
Cao Yi said to himself.
Suddenly, a familiar qi machine approached the island.
It's Han Ying.
Why are you here again?
Cao Yi frowned and devoted himself to sorting out Cui Wenzi's soul.
In a blink of an eye, a day and a night passed.
Han Ying is still here!
With a thought, Cao Yi took Cui Wenzi and Ren Qing back to the Gate of Eternal Life.
He raised his hand and scratched it.
The next second, Han Ying appeared in the shrine.
"ah"
Han Ying screamed subconsciously.
After seeing Cao Yi clearly, the screams stopped abruptly.
"Say it"
Cao Yi's tone was calm.
Han Ying took a deep breath and regained her composure.
"I came here this time to discuss cooperation with the Taoist priest."
"How to cooperate?"
Cao Yi is still very plain.
"Something is outside"
Han Ying said.
Cao Yi made a false move, and a white password box appeared in the shrine.
"There is an extremely weak force inside that sometimes disappears."
Cao Yi's consciousness penetrated the white password box and saw a black stone the size of a palm.
"Remnants of the Gate of Immortality detected in modern times"
The cold sound of system machinery sounded.
"Didn't you take away the Gate of Eternal Life? How could there be anything left behind?"
Cao Yi asked in his heart.
A message comes into my mind.
Cao Yi suddenly realized.
In the beginning, in order to speed up the integration of the Gate of Eternal Life and the modern world, the system consumed a lot of luck and turned everything in the Gate of Eternal Life into a huge energy film to connect the two worlds.
Not long ago, the plan to continuously evolve a single world was abandoned. In order not to consume too much of its own luck, the system directly cut off the two worlds.
As a result, a lot of energy remains in the space cracks in the modern world.
The energy contains a large number of physical objects (immortal stones, weapons, treasures of heaven and earth, and corpses of immortal creatures that may have the ability to regenerate).
This black stone is one of them. It is actually a kind of fairy stone, but its fairy power has been exhausted and it has lost its divinity.
Cao Yi resisted the urge to curse and said in his heart: "System, you have given me a big problem!"
At this time, Han Ying had already opened the password box, and the black stone inside appeared.
"This stone was found by the search team near West Lake. It is far harder than diamond and cannot be detected by instruments."
she says.
Cao Yi glanced at the fairy stone and said, "This thing has lost its divinity and has no value."
"However," Cao Yi made another twist, "If you find something similar or something abnormal in the future, be sure to notify me as soon as possible. As a reward, Pindao will give you some spirit beast blood."
Han Ying's heart sank when she heard Cao Yi's first words. When she heard Cao Yi's additional words, her mood improved again.
Light flashed in Cao Yi's hand, and a small white bottle appeared.
Then, Cao Yi grasped it with his hand, and a ball of blood appeared.
The little snow ape swimming happily in Taihu Lake screamed.
"What kind of spiritual beast's blood is this?"
Han Ying asked excitedly.
"Spiritual Ape"
Cao Yi said.
"Is it the spiritual ape that appeared in Maoshan?"
Han Ying asked.
While Cao Yi nodded, he poured blood into the small bottle and handed it out.
"Thank you, Taoist priest"
Han Ying took it with trembling hands.
She felt as if the astronauts had stepped off the moon landing spacecraft and taken their first steps on the moon.
Cao Yi waved his hand lightly.
Han Ying was wrapped by an invisible force and left the temple, Taoist temple, and island, and landed on the speedboat anchored in the bay.
With a noisy engine sound, Han Ying drove the speedboat away from the island.
After a while, Cao Yi's voice came from the shrine: "I don't know if it's right or wrong?"
For the next two months, Cao Yi spent most of his time cultivating and a small amount of time going out to look for things left behind by the Gate of Eternal Life in modern times.
Because most of these things are still in the space cracks, and the few outside have basically lost their divinity, the fluctuations are almost zero. He only found a little bit, not as much as the government found.
