Gu Xiaoxing was walking through the mountains and forests, feeling indescribably excited. He was thinking about finding a secret place to grill the big fish, but he felt something was wrong.
In the middle of the night, whether in the mountains or at the foot of the mountains, once the flames rise, it is difficult not to be noticed. These people living in the mountains are not mortals! As cultivators, how powerful is their perception?
If anyone knew about secretly catching fish in the spiritual pond, he would probably be punished by the sect's rules.
"How is this okay? I just want to eat meat and grow in body. What's wrong with that?"
Gu Xiaoxing believes that he is not at fault, but he also has a long memory and has not forgotten the severe punishment he received from Du Siyu. Therefore, he is extremely cautious whether he is fishing or grilling fish. He knows that in the world of cultivation, "walls have ears" is simply embarrassing. It’s hard to defend against people!
"No! Even finding a cave is not safe, there is still a possibility of being discovered!" Gu Xiaoxing frowned, having no good thoughts for a while.
"But on Shiling Peak, apart from Chai Yuan, where is the safety... hmm? Chai Yuan?"
Gu Xiaoxing thought of something, and her eyes suddenly lit up. She secretly thought that she was possessed, and she couldn't help but quicken her pace. After a while, she returned to Chaiyuan.
Speaking of safe places, isn't Chaiyuan the safest place in the entire Shiling Peak? Du Siyu was in deep cultivation. Judging from the way she was facing the moon and absorbing the moonlight, she probably wouldn't wake up until dawn.
So now, isn't it Gu Xiaoxing who has the final say in the entire Chaiyuan?
"Tonight, Chaiyuan's surname is Gu!"
Gu Xiaoxing's heart surged with heroic words, but his actions were extremely gentle. He gathered some scraps of firewood into the room. To be safe, he pasted the yellow talisman back on the door to isolate the air, and then the door closed tightly. close.
After a while, a faint firelight lit up in Gu Xiaoxing's house, and soon the fragrance began to flow. Fortunately, the doors and windows were tightly closed by him, so that the fragrance did not escape.
I don’t know how much time passed, but when Gu Xiaoxing wiped his greasy mouth and patted his bulging belly, he lay on the ground with a happy face. Beside him, there was a small extinguished fire and a Pile of fish bones.
Gu Xiaoxing closed his eyes and recollected, feeling satisfied all over. He had never tasted such delicious food. The sweetness of the fish and the tenderness in his mouth made him have endless aftertaste. Even after eating, he felt light and airy. , the body also became warm, and then got warmer and warmer...
"Huh? Why is it a little hot?"
Gradually, Gu Xiaoxing realized something was wrong. He sat up and felt that it was getting hotter and hotter. His body became hot and his skin became red.
"This fish...is poisonous?"
Gu Xiaoxing's eyes widened and he couldn't believe it. However, the next moment, he understood that this was not poison, but because this fish was not an ordinary fish. It contained extraordinary power in its flesh and blood. These extraordinary powers must be used. Just absorb it, maybe your cultivation will increase as a result. If they were allowed to run around in the body, they would be much more terrifying than poison.
Understanding the pros and cons, Gu Xiaoxing immediately used the Spirit Control Technique to control the soul-eating insect to absorb the extraordinary power within his body.
Between the eyebrows, the soul-eating insect trembled slightly, seeming to be extremely excited. A strong suction force surged out. The extraordinary power that was originally rushing around Gu Xiaoxing's body stopped for a moment under this strong suction force, and then turned at the same time, heading towards The eyebrows gathered together, and gradually, all the extraordinary power was sucked out, and the soul-eating insect itself trembled even more violently, as if it was as satisfied as the lonely star before.
The next moment, a strange force spurted out from the spirit-devouring insect and poured into Gu Xiaoxing's body. Wherever it passed, flesh and blood grew. Under such circumstances, the soul-eating insect began to feed back.
After who knows how long, when Gu Xiaoxing opened her eyes and felt various changes in herself, she was extremely excited.
"Sure enough, food is the only truth to gain weight!"
At this moment, Gu Xiaoxing wanted to throw his head back and laugh, but he quickly held it back, feeling filled with joy in his heart. His cultivation has increased a lot, but not much. He is still at the first level of Qi Condensation. If the first level of Qi Condensation is divided into the early, middle and late stages, then he is in the middle stage at the moment, which is extremely amazing!
You know, he just broke through to the first level of Qi Condensation yesterday. In just a short time, he has already completed half of the journey to the first level of Qi Condensation!
Moreover, this is not the point. The point is the improvement of the physical body. If Gu Xiaoxing could knock down a cow with one punch before, now, he feels that he can blow the cow away with one punch.
However, what excites Gu Xiaoxing the most is the change in his body shape. He now looks more skinny than skinny. Although he is still a little thin, he is almost the same as an ordinary person.
How could Gu Xiaoxing not be excited about such a qualitative improvement?
In the midst of joy, Gu Xiaoxing patted his belly subconsciously. His face was relieved that his hands were no longer shriveled. He waved his hand calmly. He put all the piles of fish bones and firewood into his storage bag, leaving only a few dots on the ground. Traces of scorch.
Just when he was about to clear away the charred blackness, Du Siyu's cold voice came from outside the house.
"You haven't come out to chop wood yet, and you don't want to eat today?"
Gu Xiaoxing's whole body trembled, panic flashed in his eyes, he wiped his mouth without trace, forced himself to calm down, slowly opened the door, and walked out.
Looking at the figure walking out, Du Siyu was obviously startled, even a little unbelievable. It had only been one night, how could he have changed so much?
Not only has his body grown, but his cultivation has also grown a lot.
Gu Xiaoxing was a little embarrassed by those beautiful eyes. Fortunately, he was thick-skinned enough and started today's task of chopping firewood.
Du Siyu looked at it for a long time, with a strong look of suspicion in his eyes. He even wanted to shout and ask questions several times, but when he thought about the relationship between the other party and Master Bai, he held back. Maybe Master Bai left some cultivation resources for him. .
Thinking of this, Du Siyu ignored it and left Chaiyuan.
"She can actually fly!" Gu Xiaoxing's eyes flashed with surprise, but soon became depressed again.
"Hmph! I chopped all the firewood! It's good that she... ran away to be happy somewhere."
They are all disciples of Chaiyuan, why is there such a big gap?
The ax fell hard, mixed with the anger in his heart. With the full support of his cultivation and physical body, the momentum of this ax became extremely amazing. A big gap was cut in the log that was harder than iron, and sawdust flew in all directions.
Gu Xiaoxing gritted his teeth, his stern eyes were particularly firm, and his voice was deep.
"One day, I want Chai Yuan to have the real surname Gu!"
The big fish last night was not in vain. That day, when we were near Xishan, after a dozen times of exhaustion and recovery, twenty frames of firewood were neatly placed in the firewood yard. Gu Xiaoxing finally finished chopping before sunset. Ten logs.
After collecting all the firewood, Gu Xiaoxing headed towards the top of the mountain. When he passed the spiritual pond, he subconsciously licked his lips, as if reminiscing, and without stopping, he quickly reached the top of Shiling Peak.
On the top of the mountain, there was a senior brother in front of the inner kitchen courtyard who seemed to be waiting for something. When he saw Gu Xiaoxing, he immediately showed a gentle smile and walked up to him.
Entering the inner kitchen, Gu Xiaoxing found that the attitudes of the senior brothers here had changed greatly compared to yesterday. When they looked at him, they all showed modest smiles.
Gu Xiaoxing considers himself a well-educated person. Since the senior brothers in the kitchen are so happy, he is naturally willing to blend in. Soon, a bright smile fills the corners of his mouth.
The corner of the fat man's mouth twitched, and he always felt that there was some ill-intention in the other person's smile, but he had no choice but to force out a humble smile and stepped forward to greet him.
They can't afford to offend this person now! The thought of the person behind it makes their hearts tremble!
"Junior brother Gu, why bother to go out in person? It's just some firewood. Just let me know and I'll go to the firewood courtyard to get it later." The third fat man spoke. His attitude changed the most. Yesterday, he looked fierce. Today, he looked fierce. His face was full of smiles, and he patted his chest as he spoke, which was truly sincere.
Gu Xiaoxing smiled, with a sincere smile, and said: "Senior brother, you're welcome, this is my job, how dare I bother you! It should be! It should be!"
Several other senior brothers in the kitchen also stopped what they were doing and came forward to get close, hoping to establish a good relationship with Master Bai's "nephew".
"Okay, okay!" Big Fatty glared at them and said in a deep voice, "Junior Brother Gu has been chopping firewood for a day and is exhausted. You should stop chattering here and get out of the way! It's time to get busy. Just go and do whatever you want!"
The big fat man waved his big hand and dispersed them. Then he smiled at Gu Xiaoxing, winked, and said with a tacit expression, "Junior Brother Gu, come with me!"
Gu Xiaoxing raised his eyebrows, nodded calmly, followed the big fat man through the kitchen, and came to a small attic. He opened the door and was greeted by the smell of rice.
Gu Xiaoxing's eyes lit up, but he showed a look of embarrassment and said: "Senior brother, what does this mean? I have not been in the sect for a long time, but I don't have any spiritual stones for you!"
"Junior brother is joking. Since you are that person, how dare we accept your spiritual stones again."
Gu Xiaoxing's eyes widened, and he immediately became vigilant, saying, "That one? Who is that?"
Still pretending?
Hearing this, the fat man came closer, lowered his voice, and said meaningfully: "Of course it's Zhenren Bai..."
Gu Xiaoxing immediately looked in disbelief, and even took a step back, exclaiming: "You...how do you know?"
The corner of Big Fatty's mouth twitched, and he wanted to say, didn't you reveal it on purpose?
But there was a flattering smile on his face, and he said: "I also met Junior Brother Cui by chance today, and I learned a few things after a while of greetings. I just hope... Junior Brother, you have to keep our secret business in the kitchen a secret. ah!"
The fat man winked and looked like he knew something.
