The old man looked at Cheng Yu's back with some confusion. It had to be said that Cheng Yu's barbecue was delicious, but he couldn't admit it. He didn't feel at ease when he saw the boy.
Not long after, Cheng Yu ran out of the woods, this time dragging a goat behind him. When he walked to the river, his hands glowed with a faint white light, and then he began to touch the goat back and forth. The old man not far away was holding a grilled fish and looked puzzled.
This time Cheng Yu wanted to properly roast a whole lamb. After softening the body with zhenqi, he used zhenqi as a knife to peel off the skin. Take out the internal organs, rub the seasoning on the inside and outside of the whole lamb, then skewer it on a branch rack and start roasting it over a fire.
"Did this kid just have a fight and get hungry again?" The old man thought as he watched Cheng Yu flipping the sheep on the grill and brushing the seasonings.
For more than an hour, the aroma of roasted whole lamb wafted out. Although the old man had eaten a lot, he still couldn't help the tempting aroma. He sat opposite Cheng Yu and stared at the roasted meat closely. Sheep on the rack.
"Want to eat?" Cheng Yu said with a smile, looking at the old man who was staring at the roasted lamb. "Unfortunately, this is mine."
"Do you think you can stop me if I want to?" the old man said disapprovingly.
"Old man, you are also a senior after all. You always steal something from a junior. Don't you think this method is shameful?"
"I don't think so." The old man said casually, not taking Cheng Yu's words seriously at all.
"Haha, old man, I know you are very powerful, but if I really put it away, you won't be able to grab it. And if you eat it this time, you may not be able to eat it next time. In fact, you don't have to grab it if you want to eat it. How about we do a business?" Cheng Yu said with a smile.
"What business?" the old man asked curiously.
"You will be my bodyguard for three months, and I will provide you with delicious food and wine for three months." Cheng Yu took out a wine bottle and said.
"Haha, boy, you have a good idea. It turns out that you did all these tricks just to let me protect you. But you really dare to think that you are definitely the first person to ask me to be his bodyguard! "Hearing Cheng Yu's words, the old man laughed and said, as if he heard a big joke. "You underestimate me, old man. You want me to protect you for three months."
"Old man, you can't say that. First of all, I don't know how awesome you are, but we are just doing what we need. What's more, with your cultivation, you can only protect me, a boy who is in the foundation building stage. It's easy. Even if you just stand next to me and scare the enemy away without even taking a shot.
Look at your outfit and slovenly appearance, I don’t know how long it’s been since I had such delicious food, otherwise you wouldn’t have snatched my barbecue. But if you want to follow me and serve me with good wine and meat every day, isn't it better than if you work hard all day long? " Seeing the old man's contempt for him, Cheng Yu didn't care, but watched him talk.
Previously, Cheng Yu wanted to use the old man to test the gap between himself and the Golden Core Stage, but then he thought about it, if he could make this old man his bodyguard, then wouldn't he be very safe in the cultivation world these few months? At least there is no need to worry about Kunlun sending masters again.
The most important thing is that his current cultivation level has not improved, which makes Cheng Yu very worried. If he can have such a master as his sparring partner every day, Cheng Yu believes that his strength will be improved to a higher level. It is not impossible to advance to the golden elixir.
Thinking of so many benefits, Cheng Yu became more determined to recruit the old man to be his bodyguard.
"Oh, you would say, old man, although I am delicious, but if you want to use these to impress me, you are wrong." The old man was not moved by Cheng Yu's words at all.
As a monk, what matters is to let nature take its course. They may have needs for food, clothing, housing and transportation, but this need is not essential.
Just like the reason why the old man grabbed Cheng Yu's barbecue, if he hadn't met Cheng Yu, the old man would have lived the same life. But since Cheng Yu has delicious food, he can just grab it if he has the ability. Why bother thinking about how to eat and drink all day long?
Therefore, their idea is so simple and direct.
"Well, I don't like forcing others the most." Cheng Yu didn't say much. With a wave of his hand, he put all the freshly roasted mutton into the storage ring, then stood up and left.
"Hey! You kid, can't you be more generous in front of your seniors? As the saying goes, business cannot be done without justice. I've been roasting meat with you for a long time, so you should share some with me, old man!" Seeing Cheng Yu act so decisively and directly , the old man was dumbfounded.
"Sorry, I only talk about benevolence and righteousness to my own people." Cheng Yu kept walking forward without looking back.
"This kid won't take anything easy." The old man was depressed. He originally thought that Cheng Yu would try his best to make him his bodyguard, but he didn't expect Cheng Yu to be so straightforward. He gave up as soon as he rejected him.
He is so insincere! After all, he is a well-known figure in the world of cultivation. If he cheated him out of a few barbecues, then he is too worthless.
What's even more disgusting is that this kid doesn't seem to take himself seriously. The look in his eyes that didn't care at all made him feel for the first time that he was really worthless?
Of course Cheng Yu would not give up so easily. Do you think you can find such a high-level thug if you want to? If you beg him, you are at a disadvantage and too passive.
However, Cheng Yu was not sure about playing hard to get, but when he saw the other party following him, Cheng Yu smiled, ignored him, took out his flying sword and flew towards Tianhai City.
Originally, Cheng Yu planned to go to Maple Leaf City first, but he felt that Maple Leaf City was no longer safe at this time. It could even be said that the entire Kunlun area made Cheng Yu feel insecure. So after thinking about it again, Cheng Yu decided to leave Kunlun early. Sphere of influence matters.
Not to mention anything else, if Kunlun is outside Kunlun's sphere of influence, at least Kunlun's informants will be reduced a lot. It would be better if I didn't have to be stared at all the time.
Cheng Yu passed quickly in three days. For the past three days, the old man has been following Cheng Yu not far away. Naturally, the reason why the old man keeps following Cheng Yu is not just because Cheng Yu can make delicious food.
The most important reason is that the old man is very interested in Cheng Yu, or in Cheng Yu's phantom fist. Every time Cheng Yu stopped to get something to eat, the old man would appear.
"Old man, isn't this good? You don't want to be my bodyguard, but you have to eat my food every day. Aren't you ashamed of your old face?" Cheng Yu didn't want to go too far. After all, the other party's cultivation level was too high. . If he offends the other party too much, he will be in trouble. Anyway, he has been following him now, and he can barely be regarded as half a bodyguard.
"Hmph, don't think that I don't know anything. In the past three days, you have been fighting with me every time you eat. Don't you want to get some benefits? You pretend to be so angry every time, but you are actually asking me to fight with you. It's just sparring, you're too cunning." The old man took off the pheasant from the grill and looked at Cheng Yu with great contempt.
But speaking from the bottom of his heart, the old man still admired Cheng Yu. There are really not many foundation-building monks who dare to use the golden elixir master as a sparring partner. Of course, he must have suppressed his realm, and he did not launch a too strong attack. Even so, Cheng Yu was severely tortured.
"Haha, old man, we are just each other. Don't think of me as a fool. The reason why you saw my purpose and were willing to spar with me, and even forced me to use my special moves, wasn't it because you wanted to understand it?" Cheng Yu said with a smile.
The three days of sparring with the old man really touched Cheng Yu. After all, Cheng Yu had always practiced alone in seclusion before. All his combat experience came from his previous life, which did not help his practice much.
But now that I fight against the old man every day, I can better integrate what I have learned. Try to save your life when you encounter a golden elixir master.
Cheng Yu no longer has the Lingyuan Fruit in his body, and his only hope of meeting a master lies in his own strength. Therefore, Cheng Yu had to find a way to improve himself and at the same time better understand the golden elixir master.
"Boy, who is your master?" In the past few days, the old man has been studying and understanding Cheng Yu's Phantom Fist, but he has no clue yet. He is very curious about Cheng Yu's background.
"It's better not to say it, I'm afraid I'll scare you to death if I say it." Cheng Yu said proudly as he drank wine and gnawed on the pheasant.
"Really? Then tell me who can scare me." The old man said curiously.
"Don't tell." Cheng Yu originally wanted to use Wuji Palace to fool him, but after thinking about it, he decided not to tell.
This is not secular, and this old man has such a high level of cultivation. Although he looks sloppy, he is actually very smart. Just like he has been studying his phantom fist, Cheng Yu doesn't use it often, and even if he does use it, he uses it very casually. As for other moves, Cheng Yu will not use them even if he is beaten to death.
If I say that I am a disciple of the elder of Wuji Palace, what if this old guy knows the seniors of Wuji Palace? So it’s better not to say anything.
"What? Are you afraid of being embarrassed?" the old man said.
"Don't use provoking methods to provoke me. It's useless to me. And you won't believe me if I tell you, so it's better not to say anything." Cheng Yu ignored the other party.
Although the old man wanted to know Cheng Yu's identity, Cheng Yu didn't say anything, and there was no need for him to ask further.
The next day, the two finally arrived at Tianhai City. Tianhai City is still within the scope of Kunlun Mountain, but this city is obviously larger than Ningshui, at least as big as three Ningshui cities.
This is already a real world of cultivation, and there are many more monks in the city. Not only the monks in Kunlun, but also many monks wear the Taoist uniforms of their own sects, with high and low cultivation levels. However, this place is not deep in the world of cultivation. Most of them are disciples in the foundation building stage and Qi refining stage.
Cheng Yu first found Qiongyu Tower in the city. If we talk about what is the best thing to look for in the city, then it can undoubtedly be Qiongyu Tower, because it is the highest attic in the city and it is so obvious in the city.
"What do you two immortal masters need?" Seeing Cheng Yu and the two standing at the door, the waiter inside asked politely.
