Maybe it's because I'm too involved in playing with my phone, time flies, and it's dark outside.

Qingzhu realized that he had forgotten to make dinner.

He was also tired, and did not want to light a fire to cook, so he glanced at the black bear in the yard, which was lying on his stomach on the big pine tree, and was sleeping, and it was better not to wake the bear, lest it have to eat again.

In this case, it is better to go to bed early, and when you fall asleep, you will not be hungry.

Before going to bed, Qingzhu also went to the outside of the courtyard wall to look at the pumpkin seeds planted in the morning.

In the vegetable field, the soil is still the soil, and there is no change in sight.

Qingzhu smiled bitterly and whispered: "Even if it is produced by the system, it can't sprout so quickly, why do you become so anxious? Hehe, I can't eat hot tofu in a hurry!"

He then went back to the ashram and went to bed.

Maybe it's because I'm tired when I'm digging over the land during the day, or maybe I'm too tired from playing with my phone.

As soon as he closed his eyes, Qingzhu fell asleep, and moreover, he had a dream.

In the dream, a ray of moonlight shone down from the night sky, and it happened to fall on the land where the pumpkins were grown.

Illuminated by the moonlight, the calm earth slowly swelled, and then, a green bud lifted up the soil, swaying, writhing and growing.

In the blink of an eye, the young seedlings grew more than a meter tall, and looking at the posture, they were still growing towards the sky.

The pumpkin vines grew taller and thicker, and the huge vines grew wildly towards the sky, as if they had become a ladder.

Somehow, Qingzhu came to the bottom of the huge vine, and he followed the vine, using his hands and feet, all the way up.

Although he was tall, he didn't feel tired, and he was very fast, climbing all the way to the top of the pumpkin vine.

It was only at this time that Qingzhu finally discovered that this pumpkin vine had reached the thirty-third heaven.

Standing in the clouds, Qingzhu looked around, and not far away, he saw a familiar back.

So, he took a step and walked towards the back.

When the familiar back figure turned around, Qingzhu's eyes immediately moistened.

That person was the old Taoist who was wearing a white robe.

At this time, the old Taoist is very different from before, his back is not so bent, the crane hair is childish, the fairy wind is bone, he is dressed in a Taoist robe, and he is better than snow in white.

The old Taoist elder put his hands behind his back and was smiling at Qingzhu.

That smile is still so familiar, so kind, so kind.

Qingzhu ran to the old Taoist's side, and tears couldn't help but fall.

The old Taoist raised his hand and wiped away the tears on Qingzhu's face.

Qingzhu sobbed and said, "Master, you ...... How are you in heaven, you ...... You...... You've really become an immortal......"

The old Taoist chief smiled and said: "Qingzhu, don't be lazy if you stay in the Qingsong Temple alone, you have to practice well, you see how good I am now, after death, I will ascend to the Tao, and help him in the old man's Tushi Palace in Taishang Laojun's alchemy medicine, the days are called a comfortable, remember the words of the teacher, don't take the evil as a small thing, don't do it with the good, you must do more good deeds, and after you become an immortal and get the Tao, our master and apprentice can reunite again......"

This dream ended here, and what happened next, Qingzhu couldn't remember clearly, because he was woken up by hunger.

When the sky was numb, Qingzhu's stomach was gurgling, and he really couldn't sleep.

“…… The system prompts that the pumpkin is ripe. ”

Hearing the sound of the system, Qingzhu suddenly opened his eyes and sat up from the bed.

"System, you said that the pumpkin is ripe, so fast, is there a mistake?!"

"Wouldn't you know when you went out and had a look?" replied impatiently.

Qingzhu was worried that he didn't have anything to eat, and the pumpkin actually ripen overnight, although he didn't believe it, but he was also happy in his heart.

So, I put on my clothes and hurriedly ran to the vegetable field behind.

As a result, as soon as he approached the courtyard wall, he immediately smelled a fresh fragrance!

It is a fragrance that can only be exuded by ripe fruits, and it is like an egg yolk mixed with cream, and it is delicate with a strong appetite temptation.

As long as you smell this smell, your mouth will overflow with saliva.

Oh my God, it smells so good!

Pushing open the small door in the backyard, Qingzhu looked down, although the pumpkin vine did not grow as tall as in his dream, it was also thick enough.

I saw that on the arm-thick pumpkin vine, a large pumpkin had grown, with an orange-red skin, shining.

The aroma that stimulates the appetite is emanating from the pumpkin.

This pumpkin is really extraordinary, it seems to be very different from ordinary pumpkins.

Ordinary pumpkins are flat and yellow, while the pumpkins produced by the system are indeed spherical, about the size of a basketball, and the color of the skin is smoother and brighter than that of ordinary pumpkins.

It makes people look at it, can't help but lick their lips and drool.

Qingzhu was so excited that he hugged the pumpkin with both hands, and without the slightest force, the big pumpkin fell off the vine.

The melon is ripe, which means that the pumpkin is fully ripe.

Holding the round pumpkin in his arms, it feels heavy, even if it is raw, just smelling this smell, Qingzhu feels full of happiness.

At this time, the black bear was also attracted by the wonderful aroma of pumpkin, and its two chubby paws were stretched forward, its eyes were blurred, its tongue was sticking out, and its feet were swaying, like sleepwalking.

"It's so fragrant, what is that, can you let me taste it, just take a bite?" asked Qingzhu with his mouth watering.

"No, no, no, it's raw, and you can't eat it raw. Qingzhu hugged the pumpkin, dodging the black bear's gaze.

"Then how can I eat it?" asked the black bear, who followed closely behind Qingzhu.

"Don't worry, I'll cook the porridge and bring you a bowl when it's cooked. ”

"Drink porridge, it's so good, I didn't drink enough yesterday......"

"Xiong, if you want to drink porridge, you can do it, but if you want to help me go outside and collect some dry firewood, you can't eat and drink for nothing, right?"

"Uh-huh, that's fine. ”

This black bear had trained in the circus and knew that there was no such thing as a free lunch, so since he wanted to drink porridge, he immediately ran to the mountains to collect firewood.

Qingzhu carried the heavy pumpkin into the kitchen, ready to cook pumpkin porridge in a large pot.

First, wash the pumpkin with water, but it is clean without washing, and then use a kitchen knife to cut it from the middle.

The pumpkin was divided into two, and Qingzhu was surprised to find that the pumpkin produced by the system was really magical, completely different from ordinary pumpkins.

Ordinary pumpkins are hollow and have seeds, however, the pumpkins he planted with his own hands are actually solid, and they are full of melon flesh, not even a seed.

Originally, Qingzhu also wanted to recycle pumpkin seeds and plant a large pumpkin field.

At that time, there will be an inexhaustible supply, and there will be no need to go to the system's commissary to buy expensive seeds.

But I never expected that the system was such a chicken thief, and the pumpkins that grew out had no seeds.

Moreover, a pumpkin seed can only grow one pumpkin, and it is completely impossible to expand the planting.

The system really came out and said: "Don't think about it, the items sold in the system commissary are not ordinary products, they can only be used for food, and there is no other use, let alone profiteering." ”

Qingzhu is speechless, since it can only be used to eat, let's try it!

The pumpkin is solid, which is more than twice as much flesh as an ordinary pumpkin, and if Qingzhu eats it alone, a quarter of the pumpkin is enough, but the black bear is a big stomach.

So, Qingzhu was going to use half of the pumpkin to cook porridge.

Cut the pumpkin into small pieces, put it in the pot, add water, and at this time, the black bear also brought a lot of dry firewood.

Qingzhu lit the stove, filled it with firewood, and let the fire burn vigorously, and soon, the cauldron was steaming, and all that was left was to wait.

Within a few minutes, a rich aroma wafted out of the pot, and it smelled indescribably good.

Qingzhu didn't know if he was hungry or what's wrong, smelling the fragrance of pumpkin porridge, he actually had a feeling of fluttering.

"Oh, the taste of this pumpkin porridge is so fragrant, I have never smelled such a fragrant smell in my life, it would be good if the master was still here, drink a sip of pumpkin porridge like this, he might be able to live a few more years, but now he is not bad at doing things in the Tushi Palace......" Qingzhu muttered while taking a deep breath of the fragrance.

The black bear found the largest bowl in the kitchen and held it in both hands with an expression of impatience.

"It's really fragrant, can you serve me a big bowl this time?" said the black bear.

"The things in the system store are really magical, just the cheapest pumpkin seeds are so good, and the other seeds are probably even more magical, but the price is too expensive, I just hope that the incense in the green pine temple can be more vigorous in the future, and when the time comes, no matter how expensive the seeds are, it is not unaffordable......"

The time was almost up, Qingzhu lifted the lid of the pot and saw that only half of the pumpkin was used, and a large pot of pumpkin porridge was cooked.

The golden pumpkin porridge is full of aroma and good looks.

This time, Qingzhu was very generous, filled a big bowl for the black bear, moved two small benches, and one person and one bear sat in the kitchen and began to drink porridge.

Because the porridge just out of the pot was so hot, they had to drink it very slowly.

……

Just as Qingzhu and the black bear were enjoying the delicious pumpkin porridge, two villagers at the foot of the mountain were walking towards the top of the mountain.

"Village chief, that courier brother is really, how can there be a bear on this mountain, what are you kidding, have you watched too many cartoons of "Bear Infested"......" A young man in camouflage uniform complained while following the person in front of him up the mountain.

"Okay, you've been babbling all the way, what's the use of talking about all this nonsense, just climb to the top of the mountain and see?"

Walking in front was a man in his fifties, wearing a dark blue coat over his white shirt, he was the current village chief of the mountain village, Li Youfu.

The person who spoke before was the captain of the security brigade of the mountain village, Yang Hu.

Although both of them lived in the village at the foot of the mountain, they rarely went up the mountain, after all, the mountain was a bit steep.

Nowadays, there is no prey in the mountains, not even the hunters, let alone any large wild animals.

Only some office workers or mountaineering enthusiasts in the city will occasionally come to climb the mountain during holidays.

While talking, the two of them had already reached the top of the mountain.

However, as soon as they looked up, both of them were immediately stunned.
