Zhong Wen squatted in the room, with a crockpot in front of him, and a fire was lit underneath the crockpot.

He stared nervously at the situation in the crockpot, and from time to time he took a bowl and poured some water into the crockpot.

Gradually, the water in the crockpot is burned dry, and a white residue condenses at the bottom of the jar.

Zhong Wen reached out and pinched a small piece of white crystal, put it on the tip of his tongue and licked it gently.

Salty and salty, with a bit of a strange taste.

It's done!

Although it is not as good as the refined salt that was often eaten in the previous life, the taste of this salt is much better than the coarse salt directly fired from seawater, and Zhong Wen estimated that it was related to the water quality of the salt lake in the Yaowang Valley.

It's finally time to get rid of the days without salt!

Zhong Wen burst into tears, at this moment, what spirit crystals, what elixirs, and what exercises and spiritual skills were all left behind by him.

"Zhong Wen, it's time to eat!"

Little Lori pushed the door in with the food, and saw Zhong Wen facing the sky on his back, his hands raised high, looking like "God", and asked curiously: "What are you doing?"

"I just made a baby. Zhong Wen turned around and said mysteriously.

"What baby?" As soon as she heard that there was a baby, little Lori's eyes sparkled.

"This thing is called 'Sai Shen'. Zhong Wen held the salt shaker and said, "Put a little bit in the food, and everything will become extremely delicious." ”

"It's amazing. Little Lori drooled when she heard this, "Can you give me some food?"

"No problem. Zhong Wen waved his hand, very boldly, "Is this chicken soup?" Come on, come on, now I'll let you experience the power of the 'Race Immortal'." ”

As he spoke, he took out a piece of salt, threw it into a large bowl with chicken broth, and slowly stirred the spoon.

"Gollum!"

A peculiar aroma of old hen soup came to his nose, and Zhong Wen's belly began to call.

He scooped up a mouthful of the soup, put it to his lips and blew on it, taking a small sip.

"Ah~~~"

A sense of satisfaction from the depths of his soul flowed all over his body, Zhong Wen couldn't help but let out **, and he was so happy that he almost fainted.

"So delicious?" Zhong Wen's posture aroused the curiosity of little Lori, and she couldn't help but scoop a spoonful of soup, blow it gently, and put it in her mouth.

Too... It's so delicious!

A taste that she had never experienced before, stimulating the taste buds of little Lori, she felt a little dizzy.

Coming back to her senses, Xiao Lori looked at the crockpot in Zhong Wen's hand again, and her eyes changed completely.

"Zhong Wen, can you give me some of your 'Race Immortals', I want Master and Senior Sister to taste it too. Little Lori blinked her eyes wide.

"Fluttershy is such a good boy who always thinks of others when she has good things. Zhong Wen touched Little Lori's head lovingly, "I only made such a little 'Race Immortal' now, I will give you a part first, and be careful not to put too much in the soup, otherwise it will become bitter." ”

As he spoke, Zhong Wen dug out a piece of salt, put it in a bowl and handed it over.

"Well, I know!" Little Lori nodded again and again, holding the bowl and running out of the door excitedly.

"Huh~ha~"

Basking in the sunlight shining into the house, listening to the sound of birds and cicadas in the yard, and slowly sipping a large bowl of chicken soup, Zhong Wen felt that life had never been so good.

After eating and drinking, the sun shining on his body, and having not slept all night, Zhong Wen yawned, felt a little sleepy, and was thinking about whether to take a nap, when the door was pushed open again.

In addition to Xiao Lori, there are also Liu Qiqi and Zheng Yueting.

As soon as he entered the house, two pairs of beautiful eyes stared at Zhong Wen.

"Bell... Mr. Chung, I heard Fluttershy say that 'Race Immortals' was made by you?" Liu Qiqi gets straight to the point.

"Call me Zhong Wen. Zhong Wen smiled, "Yes, I have recalled some things one after another in the past two days, and the 'Race Immortal' is a secret recipe that I accidentally got before." ”

"Zhong Wen, can this 'race immortal' be ......" Liu Qiqi stopped talking again, with a hesitant look on his face.

"Brother Zhong, can you sell some to me?" it was Zheng Yueting who interjected.

Zhong Wen stared at her flower-like face for a long time, and then said after seeing her face flushed slightly: "Miss Zheng is a friend of Miss Liu, some 'race immortals' are naturally nothing, don't mention what is not sold, it's just that it takes some materials and time to make this thing, and I only have so much in my hands now, if you don't dislike it, use it." ”

He pulled out a paper bag from his bosom with salt dug out of a crockpot.

"No, not so much, I'll only need half of it. Zheng Yueting waved her hand again and again, "Such a baby, if it was in the past, I would never be cheeky to ask for it, but my mother has been in poor health recently, and she has lost her appetite, except for drinking some thin porridge, she has not eaten for more than ten days, I want to see if this 'race fairy' can make her eat." ”

"Miss Zheng is so filial, and my aunt will be able to recover soon. Zhong Wen comforted.

Liu Qiqi stopped talking on the side.

Zhong Wen suddenly stepped forward and grabbed her right hand and stuffed the half packet of salt that Zheng Yueting had returned into her hand.

Liu Qiqi was taken aback, and was about to excuse himself, but he heard Zhong Wen say softly: "This thing is not difficult to make, I can make another can in two days, I was thinking of improving the taste for you." ”

"Thank you!" Liu Qiqi was silent for a while and spoke.

If you look closely, you will see a faint flush on her fair face.

It's a pity that Zhong Wen didn't see it, his mind was still elsewhere.

This girl practices every day, and she doesn't have a cocoon on her hands, so tender and slippery!

Zhong Wen secretly made up his mind that he would never wash his hands today.

"Zhong Wen, have you finished eating?" Little Lori ran to Zhong Wen's side and looked at him with big eyes without blinking.

"Well, it's full. ”

"Then let's talk about Journey to the West for a while?" the little girl showed a begging expression.

"It's... All right. Zhong Wen couldn't resist the cuteness of little Lori and had to give up taking a nap.

"Great!" Seeing Zhong Wen nodding, Xiao Lori happily ran to the table, climbed on a stool, rested her hands on the table, supported her chin, and showed an expectant expression.

"Let's go. Zheng Yueting saw that Zhong Wen was going to tell a story to Little Lori, so she wanted to take Liu Qiqi and leave together.

"Wait a little bit before leaving. ”

To her surprise, Liu Qiqi actually sat down like little Lori and posed like an audience.

How old are you, still listening to stories? Zheng Yueting was a little speechless, but she was embarrassed to leave alone, so she also pulled a stool and sat down to accompany her.

"Last time, I said that the Monkey King went to the heavenly realm with the Tai Bai Xing, and when he first ascended to the realm, he entered heaven at first time. The golden light is rolling red, and the rui qi is spraying purple mist. I saw that the South Heavenly Gate, made of blue and heavy glass, and made of bright and precious jade...... There are thirty-three heavenly palaces in this heaven, which are the Cloud Palace, the Bisha Palace, the Wuming Palace, the Sun Palace, and the Huale Palace...... There are seventy-two treasure halls, which are the hall of the court, the Lingxu Palace, the Baoguang Palace, the Heavenly King Palace, and the Lingguan Palace...... "Zhong Wen shook his spirit, and put on a storyteller's posture to paint his voice and color," ...... He despises his grandson like this! How can he coax me to raise horses for him when he is called the king and ancestor in that Huaguo Mountain? The horse breeder is the inferior battle of the younger generations, so how can he treat me? If you don't do him, don't be him! I will go and ...... it."

This description of Heavenly Court is extremely imaginative, and Xiao Lori's eyes lit up when she heard it, and Zheng Yueting was also fascinated by it, and she had long forgotten to leave the matter.

When Zhong Wen talked about the third prince Nezha and the Monkey King each conjured up a three-headed and six-armed fight, the three girls were completely immersed in the plot, and they got carried away, Liu Qiqi clenched his right fist, excited, and couldn't wait to be involved in this earth-shattering battle.

Before you know it, an hour has passed.

“...... The Jade Emperor sent a decree, and immediately ordered the Mighty Ghost King and Tianding and others to be escorted to the demon slaying platform and chop up the corpse of this guy!!" Zhong Wen's mouth was dry, "Okay, let's talk about it here today, if you want to know what will happen next, listen to the next decomposition." ”

"How can this be!" Little Lori was hearing the key place, the monkey was about to be executed, how could she be willing to stop at this time, pulling Zhong Wen's sleeve and swaying back and forth, but she didn't follow, "Talk about it for a while, talk about it for a while." ”

The two girls sat in the back, although they didn't say anything, but their eyes showed support for little Lori.

"Well, I didn't sleep enough yesterday, I'm really tired today, this story is still long, I'll tell you tomorrow when I take a break. Zhong Wen touched Little Lori's head and coaxed softly.

"Okay!" Little Lori was kind-hearted, and she couldn't bear to see that Zhong Wen was too tired, so she didn't urge anymore, but her heart was itching, and her mind was full of the heroic style of the Monkey King, and she had no intention of doing evening classes and practicing at all.

Liu Qiqi and Zheng Yueting are not children after all, they are embarrassed to be coquettish to Zhong Wen, and when they saw that he was determined not to speak, they had no choice but to give up and leave the room helplessly.

Outside the door, the voices of the two discussing gradually faded away:

"You say, will this Monkey King die?"

"Probably not, the monkey is the hero. ”

"That Erlang God is so powerful that he can actually defeat Monkey King. ”

"It's not cheating, relying on the roaring dog to fight one, otherwise it's probably not the opponent of the monkey. ”

"I'm going to go home first, and send the 'Race Fairy' to my mother, can I come to the Floating Flower Palace to live for a while tomorrow?"

"Do you want to listen to Journey to the West?"

"Hey, I've never heard such an interesting story, if I can't hear the rest of the plot, I'll definitely die!"

“...... Whatever you want, live if you like, just so I'm going to go down the mountain too, let's go together. ”

"Okay, okay, can you tell me about the previous content of Journey to the West?"

"The main thing is about a monkey popping out of a rock. ”

“...... That's gone? You're no one at the level of storytelling......

"Love to listen or not!"

......

At this time, Zhong Wen was no longer sleepy.

After lying on the bed for a while, but unable to sleep, he simply sat up, closed his eyes cross-legged, and entered the "Xinhua Scripture Pavilion" in his mind.

At this time, the giant bookshelves no longer looked so shabby, although most of the categories were still empty, on the shelves of "elixir" and "alchemy", there were two or three hundred books each, although they were far from full, they looked a little like bookshelves.

Quantum Fluctuation Speed Reading!

Zhong Wen was mischievous for a moment, and then began to concentrate and flip through the books in the Medicine King Valley.

Flipping through the collection of books one after another, large sections of text swarmed in, scrambling into Zhong Wen's brain, even with the magical reading ability of the bookshelf, under the indoctrination of a large amount of information, Zhong Wen still felt dizzy and almost crashed.

Half an hour later, all the knowledge about elixir and alchemy in the Medicine King Valley had been memorized by Zhong Wen, and he instantly had a kind of confidence as an elixir master and alchemy master.

If he had this ability in his previous life, he would have made a lot of money by going out to open a training class, and would he still have no money to buy a house? Zhong Wen sighed.

Looking out the window, it was still early at this time, Zhong Wen climbed out of bed, sat down at the table, and honestly began to copy "Mengxue".

Improving culture and eradicating illiteracy starts with me!

Zhong Wen settled down and lifted the pen in his hand......

"Shengyu Commercial Bank" is a three-storey building, covering an area of nearly one acre, and is one of the few magnificent buildings in Fufeng City.

It was almost dusk, and the front desk guy yawned and listlessly carried the broom, preparing for closing.

The guy is less than twenty years old, single and unmarried, and he doesn't plan to start a family early, and all the silver dollars he saved from working in a commercial bank have been contributed to Xiaohong in "Cuiyi Courtyard".

The head is full of little red and white tender skin, wonderful figure, and the guy's saliva is about to flow out, so he will go to meet after the door is closed.

If I can marry Xiaohong home, I will be worth it in this life. The guy thought to himself.

At this time, a girl in red with a long ponytail, picturesque eyebrows, and a long sword on her back, and a heroic posture pushed the door in.

Fairies, fairies!

The moment he saw the girl, all the little red and green were left behind by the guy, and he only felt that he had never seen such a beautiful woman in his life.

Compared with the girl in front of her, Xiaohong is simply like a flower.

"Is the shopkeeper there?" the girl's voice was pleasant.

The guy didn't answer, just stared at the girl in red.

"Hello, is the shopkeeper there?" the girl frowned and asked again.

"Oh, oh, is the girl looking for our king's shopkeeper?" the man reacted, realized his ugliness, and hurriedly remedied, "You can be in a hurry, if you are a moment late, he will have to go back." ”

"I have a treasure that I want to sell, can I talk to the shopkeeper in detail?"

"Okay, okay, wait a minute, I'll go and ask for instructions. The man drooled, didn't even put down the broom, and hurried upstairs.

After a while, a white and chubby middle-aged man wearing a silk robe appeared in front of the girl.

"Girl, surnamed Wang, is the shopkeeper of 'Shengyu Commercial Bank', I heard that the girl has valuables to sell?" The middle-aged man's tone was humble and his attitude was gentle, and it was easy for people to feel close.

"Yes, there's something I'd like to give you a look at in the palm of your hand. The girl took out a small cloth bag from her arms, untied the cloth bag, and a paper bag appeared inside, and then opened it, revealing a white crystal, "This is an exclusive condiment, called 'Sai Shenxian'......"

Compared with Cangyun City, the fourth largest city in Southern Xinjiang Province, Fufeng City can only be regarded as a small place that does not enter the stream.

There are many mountains near the small city, the spiritual energy in the mountains is abundant, the land is fertile, whether it is to grow food or medicinal materials, there are extremely high quality, so most of the people who come and go to Fufeng City are elixir merchants and grain merchants, and the business is linked to the season, and most of the merchants will not stay in the city.

There are only three local forces that are really a bit of scale, namely "Shengyu Commercial Bank", "Golden Daomen" and "Bliss Gang".

As the largest force in Fufeng City, "Shengyu Commercial Bank" has a strong background, and its business scope is down to grain, medicinal materials, livestock, iron tools, farm tools, to jewelry and antiques, calligraphy and painting, and spiritual skills, and cultivation pills, almost all-encompassing, and its status is transcendent and unshakable.

The other two major forces, the "Golden Dao Gate" and the "Bliss Gang", one is a cultivation sect and the other is an underworld force.

However, Zheng Gongming, the master of the Golden Dao Gate, had no intention of fighting with the Bliss Gang in the past two days.

It's just that his beloved wife Xiao has recently suffered from anorexia, and at first he could barely drink some liquid such as soup porridge, but in the past few days, he has not eaten a drop of water, and he will vomit it immediately when he barely drinks it in his mouth.

In this era of extreme male superiority and inferiority, most powerful men will have several or even a dozen wives, Zheng Gongming, as the head of a sect, is extremely dedicated, and only married Xiao alone, which shows the depth of the relationship between the two.

Looking at Xiao, who was sick in bed and described as haggard, Zheng Gongming's heart ached, but he was helpless.

After all, there are not a few anorexia patients in the Great Qianguo, especially among the nobles, there is no effective treatment for this disease, and it can only rely on the patient's self-healing, and there are not a few nobles who die under anorexia every year.

"Master, I can't do it. Xiao's cheeks were sunken and his spirit was depressed, "I just hope that after I leave, you can marry the Li family's sister Xu Xian, and I can't rest assured that there is no woman to take care of it." ”

"Madam, you just need to take care of your illness, your health will naturally be fine in two days, don't think about those who have it. Zheng Gongming was comforted on his lips, but his heart was gloomy.

"For so many years, you have never gone to other women for me, and you have made people laugh behind their backs, and I have your kindness in my heart. Xiao's breath was very weak, "It's just that you must agree to this matter, otherwise I won't be able to turn a blind eye when I die, the Li family's sister is good, I can only feel at ease with her taking care of you and the two children." ”

"Madam, apart from you, I, I can't tolerate anyone else anymore......" Zheng Gongming finally couldn't help but burst into tears, "You take care of your illness, you must not give up, think about Tingting and Qi'er, the child can't live without a mother." ”

"Tingting has grown up and is capable, I don't have anything to worry about, it's just Qi'er's weak temperament......" Speaking of the youngest son, Xiao's face was worried.

"Dad!mother!" Zheng Yueting's voice came from outside the door.

Zheng Gongming was sad, and when he heard a hint of joy in his daughter's voice, he couldn't help frowning, and was about to reprimand.

"Sir. Xiao shook his head at him and winked.

Zheng Gongming smiled bitterly and said no more.

"Ting'er, this time I went to the Floating Flower Palace to fight, but I won?" Xiao reluctantly lifted his spirits.

"Don't talk about it. Zheng Yueting pursed her lips, "Mother, how is your appetite, can you eat?"

"It's better, so I drank a bowl of porridge. Xiao said, glancing at her husband who was standing behind her daughter.

Zheng Gongming had no choice but to nod with a smile.

Zheng Yueting is smart by nature, and when she saw the expressions of the two, she didn't understand anything, and she didn't expose it, and said with a smile: "This time I went up the mountain, I met a strange person and gave me a treasure, maybe I can cure my mother's anorexia." ”

"Really!" Zheng Gongming was overjoyed when he heard this, and hurriedly asked, "What kind of baby?"

"Go get a bowl of chicken soup. Zheng Yueting didn't know what to say, but just instructed the maid, "I'll test the effect of this 'race immortal' on the spot." ”

After a while, the maid entered the house with a big bowl of chicken soup, Zheng Yueting didn't say a word, took out the salt packet from her arms and opened it, gently broke a small piece, threw it into the soup, and told the maid to stir it well and bring it to Xiao's bed.

"Mother, you can try it. Zheng Yueting scooped a tablespoon, blew lightly twice, and sent it to Xiao's lips.

Looking at Zheng Yueting's sincere eyes, although Xiao had no appetite, he couldn't bear to live up to his daughter's kindness, so he endured the nausea, opened his lips slightly, and took a small sip of chicken soup......
