The ventilation and exhaust system in the Gathering Spirit Tower is very high-end, and it has always been able to maintain the full aura in the tower.

There are also some drainage ditches next to the automatic alchemy machine in the center of the tower.

Therefore, it is very convenient to make alchemy and cook vegetables in the Gathering Spirit Pagoda, and it does not affect the environment, and sufficient spiritual energy can ensure the effect of alchemy and the quality of spiritual food.

Everyone came to the side of the alchemy furnace, and Wu Yaohua was adding carbon to the two furnaces.

Yang Xingchen put a large basket of basalt meat on the ground.

"What is this?" Wu Yaohua asked.

"Where's your cauldron, use it to cook the thousand-year-old king's eight soup!" Ding Lingling said excitedly.

"In the backpack, I'll get it. Agree to use it to cook?!Great, hehe!" Wu Yaohua was also very excited, and was very much looking forward to Ding Lingling's cooking skills.

"Are these Chinese rice?" asked Zhu Yan, pointing to the dozen bags piled up not far from the alchemy furnace.

Wu Yaohua looked back and said, "Yes, the military rations brought by the female soldiers in the army just now will eat this at noon." ”

"I'll go outside and find some big rocks to pad the pot. Yang Xingchen looked at the cauldron where there were no burn-resistant items around, so he said.

"Then let's eat first. Ding Lingling picked up a bag of military rations from the ground and opened it.

Inside: canned braised pork, canned yellow peaches, fried rice with beef with lentils, instant drinks.

"The staple food, meat, vegetables, fruits and drinks are all available, and it will look delicious!" Ding Lingling said with a smile.

Yang Xingchen came back with several big stones in his arms after a while.

He and Wu Yaohua laid out the cauldron together, put in a large amount of water and some elixirs under the guidance of Ding Lingling, lit the charcoal and began to heat it.

"Boil the herbs first, and then cut all the basalt meat when I eat well, and then put it in and stew slowly. Ding Lingling said while eating: "This military food is very delicious, you can eat it quickly." ”

Yang Xingchen looked around, due to the shortage of materials now, the troops only gave two folding chairs.

He let the two beauties sit first, and then he went outside to pick up the big rocks.

After another while, Yang Xingchen found five large stones with a fairly flat surface, stacked them together and brought them to the side of the alchemy furnace.

Zhu Yan watched Yang Xingchen come over with a stack of old and tall stones, and couldn't help laughing: "Haha! If you want to sleep here at night, do you still have to get a few stone beds?"

"Hehe, I'm kidding me again, just sleep on the ground. Yang Xingchen carefully put down the big stone and said with a smile.

Wu Yaohua originally wanted to say that the stone bed slept last time I came to the secret realm alone, and it was uncomfortable.

But after hearing Yang Xingchen's answer, he swallowed these words, and secretly reminded himself that he should think about it before speaking in the future, and his image of being a stupid big man was caused by speaking too directly.

It was almost one o'clock in the afternoon, and Yang Xingchen and the five of them were chatting while eating military rations.

"Speaking of Xuanwu, it is one of the four great divine beasts in ancient mythology. But let me kill it, and now I have to stew and eat, I really didn't expect it!" Yang Xingchen sighed.

"It's really unexpected, thinking about the battle between you and Xuanwu before, it's really too dangerous! Zhu Yan said worriedly.

"Well, this time it's really careless. I was too confident in myself at the beginning, and I can't be so reckless in the future. And when you explore the secret realm in the future, you must wear the spiritual power detector all the time, if the monsters inside are too powerful, running away is the first choice!" Yang Xingchen said seriously.

"Well, after we eat the elixir and cultivate our spiritual power, we don't need to trouble you to activate and disarm the spiritual power detector. Wu Yaoxia said.

Yang Xingchen nodded.

"Speaking of the four great divine beasts, since Xuanwu is real, then the other three divine beasts should also be real!" Wu Yaohua said.

"The Four Great Divine Beasts: the Green Dragon, the White Tiger, the Vermilion Bird, and the Xuanwu. The green dragon is the image of a cyan dragon, the white tiger is a white tiger, the vermilion bird is similar to the phoenix, and the basalt is a chimera of a turtle and a snake. Wu Yaoxia said.

"Do you know all this?" Ding Lingling admired Wu Yaoxia a little that she knew so much at a young age, and she was a little good at eating, but she didn't understand many other things.

"I looked it up on the Internet last night. Wu Yaoxia said.

"Huh?" Yang Xingchen immediately questioned after hearing this: "I only went to sleep last night when I saw you fall asleep, where do you have time to check this? Oh! You pretend to be asleep!"

"No, no, no!" Wu Yaoxia hurriedly said: "Because I couldn't sleep at first, and I was afraid that you wouldn't sleep either, so when you fell asleep, I checked for a while, and then I fell asleep immediately." ”

Wu Yaohua shook his head and said, "Look, this kid is too difficult to manage, and he is very clever!"

Wu Yaoxia didn't care what Wu Yaohua said about himself, and continued: "Speaking of the record of 'dragon', it has been since the ancient Five Emperors period three thousand years ago, the Yellow Emperor not only usually 'rode the dragon and the clouds', but also 'had a dragon hanging down his beard' to welcome the Yellow Emperor; ”

"And then to the 'dragon totem' of the ancient clans and tribes, the 'dragon robe' and 'dragon chair' representing the imperial power of various dynasties, and the 'dragon vein' representing luck, until today, the image of the dragon is deeply implanted in the hearts of every Zhongtian Chinese people. There are dragons in the zodiac, and we usually have the custom of dragon dance, as well as the dragon boat race of the Dragon Boat Festival. ”

"But the vast majority of people now don't agree that dragons are real, for example, before I saw Xuanwu with my own eyes, I always thought that dragons and these mythical beasts were fictional and did not exist in this world. Because what? Because dragons don't have wings, but they can fly! This is completely contrary to scientific principles!" Wu Yaoxia continued.

"It may be that the dragon's body is relatively light, it eats a lot of beans, digests well, and has a lot of farts, and it takes off when it is put away......" Ding Lingling's thinking took off on its own......

"Well, I can't deny that there is a possibility...... Wu Yaoxia wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and continued: "Now I believe that the dragon is real, although the way it flies is still up for debate, but there is indeed a lot of 'evidence' on the Internet that the dragon is not fictional. ”

"More than 6,000 years from today, the early tomb of Yangshao culture unearthed a dragon made of clam shells next to the male tomb owner, which is the earliest dragon found so far. In order to survive, to go out early and return late for food, to plant and hunt, if you don't see it with your own eyes, how can you have the leisure to imagine the image of a dragon, and then pile it up with mussel shells and put it in the cemetery?"
