The next day, Gu Ziyan came to Bailong Peak again, and before he could enter the courtyard, a fragrance wafted over. The "aroma" here does not mean the kind of incense that burns, but ...... Meow a mi, who is cooking hot pot!

According to the setting of the Nine Heavens Continent, monks below the Jindan stage still need to eat. There are many disciples in the Taihua Immortal Sect, and they will also provide two meals a day - yes, only in the morning and at noon, according to the cultivation parlance, "no food after lunch", so there is no such thing as dinner. For the feeling of eating for the first time...... Gu Ziyan didn't want to say anything, anyway, after experiencing this quality food for a day, Gu Ziyan resolutely changed a batch of Bigu Dan from the medicine hall that was simply expensive.

Sure enough, as long as the food produced in the "school cafeteria" is not edible! Even if this is the world of cultivating immortals, it is not immune, no matter what materials you make of, the final taste can fade out of a bird, and it is also famous: self-cultivation.

Although it is said that not eating ordinary food for a long time is not too big a problem for Gu Ziyan, but today he was hooked by this taste, and his long-dormant appetite was actually hooked.

Ah, it really smells good ()

Following the smell of pushing open the door in the courtyard, Gu Ziyan had an extra hot pot full of food on the table in front of him at some point, and it was rising with billowing white mist. There was also a gluttonous cat ball squatting next to the hot pot, its two heterochromatic eyes were amazingly bright, staring at the exposed fish tail in the pot.

If it weren't for the fact that this hot pot was too hot, it is estimated that Qiuqiu would have gone up to catch fish long ago.

Dishes and chopsticks had already been placed on the table, Gu Ziyan stared at this obvious "food trap", stood there and struggled for a long time, and finally couldn't resist the temptation. Regarding the fact that Li Zhao is full of cooking skills, it has appeared many times in "Nine Days", and of course Gu Ziyan has known about it for a long time. As a popular male protagonist these days, it is also one of the necessary conditions to go up to the hall and down to the kitchen, after all, whether it is a girl or a friend, most people can't resist the temptation of food. In the original book, the skill of cooking has played a significant role in gaining favor, apologizing, and finding foreign help.

So when he saw this fragrant hot pot, he knew that it was from Lizhao's hand. However, even if he knew, he still had to ...... in the end

Gu Ziyan, who gave up resistance, was heartbroken and sat in the position that was obviously reserved for him.

Seeing him sit down, Qiuqiu immediately trotted two steps and squatted beside him, stretched out his paws and scratched him twice with a soft meat pad, but his eyes were still on the cocked fish tail: "Meow~"

"Okay, okay, I'll help you." Gu Ziyan was obviously amused by Qiuqiu, and his previously tangled face also relaxed. Pick up the chopsticks placed aside, clamp the fish tail exposed outside the soup, raise your hand and put the palm-sized fish in the white porcelain plate, and push it in front of Qiuqiu.

Qiuqiu curled up his fluffy tail and squinted his eyes in satisfaction to start eating.

And Gu Ziyan no longer hesitated, and picked up a piece of meat that had been cut very thin from the hot pot. The soup has already penetrated during the boiling process, so that the thin meat like a cicada's wings melts in the mouth, and the delicious soup melts on the tongue, leaving it with an endless aftertaste between the lips and teeth.

At this entrance, the current Gu Ziyan is already the same as Qiuqiu, his eyes are lit up.

The Nine Heavens Continent is the cultivation realm, most of the monks have no desires, and the top of the golden pill has long been out of the appetite, and there are not many people who will work hard in this regard. However, as a traverser who was thrown in halfway, Gu Ziyan's predecessor naturally didn't say anything, and since he was a full-level Demon Venerable, he didn't even think about eating, as for this life...... The canteen of Taihua Immortal Sect is still not mentioned.

Li Zhao's legendary cooking skills are really not for fun, and at this time, a mouthful of food wrapped in fragrant soup simply awakened his taste buds in an instant. The taste of food invented by normal human beings in memory began to emerge in memory one by one, and then immediately transformed into appetite.

Just as Gu Ziyan was feasting, the sound of the door opening suddenly came.

Pushing the wooden door open, Li Zhao stood in front of the door and was not surprised, but bent his eyes as if he already knew. He carried a common food box in his hand, put the food box on the table and opened it, and the still warm glutinous rice tea cake was placed on the celadon plate, which could make people's appetite move just by looking at it.

"There was no stove in the courtyard, so I had to go to the back kitchen of the cafeteria to borrow it, so it took a little more effort. But it seems that the time is just right. Li Zhao looked at Gu Ziyan with a smile, and reached out to touch Qiuqiu's head by the way.

However, Qiuqiu, who was eating fish, obviously didn't want to be touched, and he snapped away Lizhao's hand without raising his head.

Gu Ziyan suddenly felt a little blushing, as the saying goes, eating people has a short mouth, he just scolded Lizhao yesterday, and today he will ...... Wait, Li Zhao said he went to the cafeteria? Isn't that someone else who has already met the Taihua Immortal Sect?

Looking at the miniature version of the master in front of him, his slightly flushed face gradually turned cold, and after thinking about it, he immediately took the lead in explaining: "Don't worry, I have already used a small method to hide the exercises in my body, unless I cultivate to a higher level than me, I can't see it." ”

Hearing Li Zhao say this, Gu Ziyan went to explore his pulse at the moment.

After the aura wandered around, he really found that now he couldn't test the difference between the Immortal Dao and the Demon Dao in Zhao's body, and even the cultivation realm was vague, if he hadn't known in advance, he would definitely regard him as a hairy boy who had just started his cultivation.

Afraid that Gu Ziyan would not be at ease, Li Zhao reached out and took out another jade plate from his waist and pushed it in front of Gu Ziyan.

Seeing this jade card, Gu Ziyan couldn't help but blink his eyes in surprise. Compared with his own, Lizhao's jade plate has the same system, but the size and material are different, and it is made of the most ordinary stone jade, which is much rougher. Such a jade plate should be owned by an outer disciple, or the lowest level, a nominal outer disciple who is responsible for miscellaneous work, this kind of person is not a small number of people in the Taihua Immortal Sect, but it is the most inconspicuous group of people.

"This thing was exchanged between me and others, I heard that the elder of the outer gate passed away recently, and the entire Longwei Peak was in chaos. The owner of this jade medal also felt that it was not interesting for him to stay any longer, so I exchanged ten medium-grade immortal jades for a jade medal with him, and now he should have returned to his hometown. So no one will know about this anymore. Li Zhao's fingers pressed the jade plate, and his eyes were shining, full of confidence unique to a teenager.

At this time, Gu Ziyan recovered from his surprise. Should he say that Li Zhao is worthy of being the male protagonist of "Nine Days"? Although he once complained that Li Zhao was too virgin, he had to admit that although Li Zhao was sometimes soft-hearted and impulsive, most of the time he was very sensible.

After being silent for a long time, Gu Ziyan put down the chopsticks that he had been holding in his hand for a long time, and said, "So, do you have to wait here until seven years later, when the Burial Sword Valley opens?" ”

"Nope." The smile on Li Zhao's face retracted slightly, and suddenly became stern. He took two steps forward, just in front of Gu Ziyan, and the whole person squatted down, just at the height of Gu Ziyan, who was sitting.

However, Gu Ziyan probably never thought that what Li Zhao would say to him next would be: "I just want to find you...... Master. ”

"Boom-" sounded, and something exploded in Gu Ziyan's mind in an instant. What a hell! How can they recognize themselves one by one, can they still be reborn well!

He was almost speechless at this time, feeling that his whole day yesterday had been in vain: "Then you ......"

"I didn't know for sure until yesterday." Li Zhao stretched out his right hand with the Qiankun ring, and then took the ring off his finger, "It's this Qiankun ring, Shizun stared at it for a long time yesterday, didn't it?" ”

I watched it, but I didn't say anything! Gu Ziyan was a little devastated, all of his IQs were on the line all the time, and the slightest hint could be seen, could he still play happily?

"I haven't touched the things that were originally in it, and now they are back to their original owners." The ring, which had been extremely smooth by the years, was put into Gu Ziyan's palm by Li Zhao, with a trace of temperature.

Gu Ziyan was stunned, the feeling of the ring in the palm of his hand was very familiar, but he touched it carefully, and pushed the thing back: "You take it, I can't use it anymore." ”

This ring was originally refined with the Demon Dao Technique, and most of the things stored in it were used by high-level cultivators, and with Gu Ziyan's current immortal Dao body and low-level cultivation, it was useless to hold it.

Li Zhao didn't expect Gu Ziyan to refuse, he raised his eyes and looked at Gu Ziyan and said, "What does Shizun mean, don't you want to go back?" ”

"It's been a hundred years, and although the Immortal Sect has changed hands, it has become as prosperous as ever, and I have no regrets. Besides, as you can see, I have entered the Taihua Immortal Sect in this life, since it is a reliving life, let the previous things pass. Gu Ziyan lowered his head, his eyes didn't know where to fall, and his fluttering tone made people feel that he really didn't care.

At this point, the original idea of returning to the Cangying Sect was long gone.

"Master, ......" Li Zhao suddenly remembered that he was in the Taiqing Palace as the Zhaoming Demon Lord that day, and Gu Ziyan also rejected him categorically, so he knew that this matter was hopeless. But he still wanted to persuade again, but was interrupted by Gu Ziyan.

"You don't have to call me Master anymore, I haven't taught you anything before, and I can't teach you anything now. I'm just an ordinary new disciple of the Taihua Immortal Sect, and I've just entered the realm of Qi cultivation, so I can't afford to be this master. Gu Ziyan lowered his eyes, and quickly spit out this word between his lips.

He shouldn't have anything to do with Lizhao anymore, the plot of this world is already messy enough, just dealing with Taihua Immortal Sect is very troublesome, plus a Lizhao who is still a demon Dao identity, I don't know what it will become.

However, Li Zhao was not willing to give up, he looked at Gu Ziyan with burning eyes: "Then please accept me as a disciple in this life." ”

"I said, I can't teach you anything, and I can't accept apprentices." Gu Ziyan really frowned this time, Li Zhao's persistent way made him feel a headache the most, "I won't care about what you want to do, and it's not my turn to take care of it." ”

Having said this, Gu Ziyan thought that even Lizhao would give up.

However, it turned out that he was still too naïve - Li Zhao, who had obtained the status of a "legitimate" outer disciple, actually stayed in the Taihua Immortal Sect like this! Not only that, it was clear that Longwei Peak and White Dragon Peak were so far away, but Gu Ziyan felt that he could always meet Lizhao in unexpected places.

The scariest thing is...... Whenever he passed by the small courtyard of Bailongfeng, he would always receive a box of carefully prepared delicacies.

"Meow." When he saw Qiuqiu squatting next to the food box licking his paws for the tenth time, Gu Ziyan resigned himself to lifting the food box and picking up the cat, and began his life of being fed. In a certain way, Li Zhao's cooking skills are really a big killer.

When the wonderful taste once again occupied his lips and teeth, Gu Ziyan suddenly felt that in fact, this kind of life was not bad.

"Ziyan, come here." One night, Mo Yong suddenly stopped Gu Ziyan, who had just returned to Qianhan Peak.

Gu Ziyan was taken aback, thinking that he wouldn't know anything, right? So he walked over slowly, blinked his eyes and asked, "...... Master, what's wrong? ”

When Gu Ziyan walked in front of him, Mo Yong first looked at him for a long time, and when he saw that his ears were red, Mo Yong suddenly reached out and touched his cheek. Mo Yan's fingers were slender and dry, with a slightly cool feeling, touching Gu Ziyan's slightly reddened skin, the touch was particularly obvious.

The finger rubbed lightly on the cheek twice, and then in the deep voice, there was a rare doubt: "Why do you think you have gained a little weight over time......

"Ahem—ahem." Hearing this, Gu Ziyan almost choked himself to death.

Well, Li Zhao is fed three meals a day and two desserts, and everyone has to gain weight...... No, no, it seems that the time to practice swords in the future will have to be extended, otherwise it will not be good to be fat into a ball.

I thought that such days would not be very long, but at this time, Gu Ziyan would not have thought that these days would be seven years as soon as they passed.
