Chapter 12: Eat, Eat, Eat
In the noisy and lively market, a pair of young brothers are arguing with the old monk who often goes in and out of the Sunset Mountains. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
"You are not ashamed to be old, and you are embarrassed to deceive your grandchildren when you are old! Look at your pig, or do you give it to people to eat? The little boy who was the size of Pee Ding was the main fighting force, and he pulled the hind legs of the hyena porcupine, and shouted unrelentingly.
"Why isn't it eaten by people!" The old monk on the other side blushed and roared thickly: "My hyena porcupine contains spiritual power, but mortals can't eat it if they want to, and it's cheaper to sell you two spirit stones!" ”
"Contains spiritual powers? Then tell me, what level of spirit beast is it? The little boy sneered uncontrollably.
"This ......," the old monk said, "anyway, I'm already very cheap!" ”
"Is this still called cheap?" The boy tugged at the pork leg: "Look, this meat is broken, how can you eat it?" There is mud and hair everywhere, if you want to eat, you have to buy a water purification charm, this pig is big, how many water purification charms do I have to buy? If you want to eat it, it will cost so much, our brothers have a total of two spirit stones, and you have to snatch them all, and you still have so much room to do things when you are old, no wonder you are already so old and still cultivate so low...... Wow...... Our brother is bitter......"
The boy shouted and sat down on the ground and wept, and the old monk was half angry at his words, and his fingers trembled at him.
When the surrounding monks heard the movement, they all looked over here, and saw that it was the old fritter who had always sold at a high price and who loved outsiders in the pit was scolded and echoed it.
"That's it, Lao Zhao, you earn enough spirit stones on weekdays......"
"Lao Zhao, are you a monk embarrassed to pit the doll who has not entered the Tao?"
"The condition of this hyena porcupine is indeed not good......"
"The two spirit stones are too embarrassing, these two little brothers......"
"Leave a line in your work, and see you in the future, Lao Zhao ......"
The old monk has been in this market all the year round, and it is the first time he has encountered a siege, this is not good, this is going to get out, how can he do business? He clenched his fists and wanted to come up several times to clean up the splash doll, but unfortunately the older boy next to him only swept him with his eyes, and he was inexplicably frightened.
"Give and give! Isn't it okay to send you! is so treacherous at a young age, count me as my old Zhao Tou admit it! "As soon as the old monk flicked his sleeves, he strode away with a tiger face, and was actually pitted by a mortal junior, today is really unlucky!
When the male doll sitting on the ground heard his words, he quickly stopped crying, and his watery eyes were filled with infinite gratitude and sincerity: "Thank you seniors for your generosity!" The seniors are good people! It's just that this pork is really dirty, and it's not good to have a water purification charm......"
The old monk in front of him almost lost his mind when he heard this, and before he could finish speaking, he flew away and disappeared.
The little boy smiled shyly, bowed down and thanked the monks who had spoken out around him, and then ran to walk with the boy who had just collected the hyena porcupine, and slowly disappeared into the crowd.
The little boy, that is, the makeover Shi Mian, is in a beautiful mood.
The place where she is now is a scattered workshop city at the foot of the Luoyang Mountain Range, not far from Luoyang City.
These days, someone has been secretly searching for her, and as a last resort, Shi Mian changed into men's clothes, and asked Du Shuo to make some modifications for her, the little boy who is a few years old has not changed his voice, and it really doesn't seem to be disobedient at all.
The only thing that is difficult to hide is her appetite, a terrible amount of food for five or six-year-old children, this goal is simply too obvious, because of the problem of eating along the way, the two of them were almost caught several times, until they entered the Luoyang Mountain Range, the situation was better.
The Falling Sun Mountain Range is next to the Falling Sun City, it is a branch of the Dingyun Mountain Range, it is said that there was a sect built here thousands of years ago, and it was at its peak, and then somehow, the aura here became extremely thin overnight, and the sect built on the Falling Sun Mountain Range gradually declined until it disappeared.
Thousands of years later, the Sunset Mountain Range, which Shi Mian sees now, has become a paradise for low-level spirit beasts, and a hiding place for some scattered cultivators who can't see the light or have no background. There are a lot of fish and dragons here, and the cultivation of the monks is low, and there is no leader, which is extremely chaotic, and it is because of this that Shi Mian can stay here for so long.
Du Shuo had already sent a note to Mo Shu at the same time, and Shi Mo Shu was invited back to his home, but now he has not found Shi Mian for a while, and the people of his family have not done anything to him. Shi Mian was not in a hurry when she heard this, the other end of the Luoyang Mountain Range was the Luoyang City where the Shi family's main family was located, and it wouldn't take much time to go over, so she simply mixed around here for a while, and the water lily, who had never allowed her to mess around, actually agreed.
The biggest reason is still - eating.
"Hahaha, that old guy still wants to trick me into giving back this evil power, hahaha!" Shi Mian said proudly to the water lily.
"......" Water Lily was a little speechless: "You planned to come back from the pit without spending a single spirit stone at the beginning?" ”
"No, I originally wanted to press half a spirit stone, but who knew that his combat effectiveness was too poor, so he panicked and made a lot of money, hahaha! Did you see him like that at the end? I was so scared that I couldn't walk steadily, hahaha! Shi Mian gloated.
The water lily simply cut off her thoughts, and her laughter was really noisy and cheap. It sighed in its heart, always feeling that if it continued to mix with this potato like this, it would not be able to achieve the qualities of integrity, nobility, purity, and hard work required by the inheritance.
Shi Mian noticed that he was disgusted by the water lilies, and he didn't feel anything, today's harvest is really rich~
For more than a week, she spent more than a week in the pit and abduction, one fang market saw her, and she went to another fang market, during which she also gained a lot of meat like this low-level spirit beast, but it was the first time that there was so much like today.
This hyena porcupine is actually not a spirit animal, but it grew up in this kind of aura place, and there is a trace of not very pure aura in its body, and it may not feel it when it eats a whole head. However, she doesn't need to have aura, she just likes that this hyena porcupine is exaggeratedly big, and often one head is enough for her to have a full meal.
Du Shuo saw that she was greedy for those spirit beast meat, and also bought her a second-order green rabbit, the size of two palms, it cost a full ten spirit stones, and there was no shortage of sleepy lips and swords and the boss's white eyes that almost rolled over his head.
As soon as they bought it, they smeared oil on the soles of their feet and ran to other markets to hide, for fear of being sought revenge by the boss. As a result, the last time I ate it, the effort to blink my eyes was gone, and it was very unpleasant to call Shi Mian. Although the water lily didn't ask her for food all day because of the spiritual power brought by the second-order green rabbit, she was asked to be a normal person for the first time, but she still likes to be stuffed in a big mouthful, and she eats hard enough.
"Miss Twelve, do you still want to stew tonight?" Du Shuo walked into the kitchen, took out the pork he had just bought from the Qiankun bag, and turned back to ask her.
They now live in a small makeshift courtyard with beautiful walls and a maple tree in the yard, which is a great place to look good in the Sunset Mountains. The previous owner of this place had already died, and Du Shuo saw that Shi Mian liked it, so he repelled the monks who came to rob the house from all walks of life and occupied this place.
"It's still stewed, and the part you want to eat can be made to your liking." Shi Mian answered.
Du Shuo nodded silently, but did not dispose of the pork separately.
Stewed meat can best preserve the energy of food, although it is not delicious, but it does not matter in Shi Mian's opinion.
Shi Mian looked at Du Shuo in a daze. The young man's face did not have the enthusiasm and vitality that should be present at this age, but was so calm and calm that people doubted his real age.
He turned his hand over a water purification technique, washed it and then neatly dropped the knife, stacked it aside and slaughtered a piece, and the hyena porcupine, which was larger than his body, was cleaned and sorted out in a short time.
It's not the first time I've seen him slaughter a pig, but every time I see it, I still marvel, you slaughtered pigs so beautifully, do you want others to live?
Du Shuo's hand suddenly moved, and he turned around and bowed his head to her and apologized: "I'm sorry, Miss Twelve, I forgot to cast the Breath Technique on you today." ”
He threw a trick at Shi Mian from afar, and immediately, the strong fishy smell disappeared, and Du Shuo leaned over again and went back to cooking.
Shi Mian only touched his nose in amazement, he could perform the spell from such a distance, and the control was good...... In fact, the water lily has long reminded her that this Du Shuo may not be simple, whether it is his cultivation or the bearing around him. Although he was always respectful to Shi Mian, he was different from Chen Chang's kind of respect, although he said humble words and did humble things, he did not make people feel humble at all. Ming Ming is very young, but his cultivation is not low, but his qualifications should be good, but he is a small servant in the Shi family, no matter how he thinks about it. The most important thing is that when he bought the green rabbit, he spent the ten spirit stones without blinking his eyes, which really calmed Shi Mian.
Water Lily always conspires about him, wanting Shimian to stay away from him, but thinking about Shimian as a mortal, and now he is in a worrying situation, it is not okay to distrust him.
And Shi Mian doesn't care about these at all, when she was a potato, she had a super instinct that was praised as being able to catch up with the beast clan, although she claimed it, but she was also very confident, since she didn't feel malicious in Du Shuo, she didn't go to explore other people's affairs.
Shi Mian held the "Book of Eternal Life" and watched it for a while, and the meal was already on the table.
The hyena porcupine stewed so much that it took up an entire table, and the rice had to be placed on another table.
Shi Mian looked at it, and his eyes instantly lit up: "Thank you for your hard work, let's start eating!" ”
Du Shuo bowed his head and said, "The little one thanked Miss Twelve." ”
Shi Mian had already begun to struggle with the hyena porcupine, and he couldn't spare his mouth to speak, so he only waved his hand. She didn't notice that Du Shuo's paralyzed face showed a rare trace of confusion: Is the stewed meat really so delicious?
Shi Mian swept the entire dining table like a cloud, and finally burped with satisfaction, rarely a little embarrassed, she smiled at Du Shuo: "I have been failing my etiquette class, if you feel uncomfortable, you can take it to your room to eat." ”
Du Shuo lowered his head and said, "The little one doesn't dare." ”
"Okay." Shi Mian was helpless.
She sat on the futon in the courtyard and meditated, closed her eyes and digested the pig she had just eaten, felt the faint aura pass through her body and was introduced into the Qinglian imprint, and thought sourly in her heart: If I can also retain the aura, how good would it be?
Penetrated the divine sense into the dantian again, the potato is still the same, there is no change at all, Shi Mian has not fed it less these days, the cheeky guy of the potato does not refuse, but there is no feedback, so that she can't even get angry.
When she opened her eyes, Du Shuo had already packed up the dinner plate and was standing next to her, staring at her, lest someone suddenly break in.
Shi Mian would be frightened by him every time she meditated, and this time was no exception, she habitually wanted to persuade him, but she gave up after thinking about it, and she would be ignored every time anyway.
"Du Shuo, let's go collect some spirit beast meat tomorrow and go back the day after tomorrow, right?" Shi Mian discussed with him.
Du Shuo immediately replied, "It's all up to Miss Twelve's wishes." ”
"......" Shi Mian nodded helplessly and said, "Then go to bed early tonight." ”
She got up and walked to her room, took two steps and stopped, turned her head with twitching out of the corners of her eyes, and said to Du Shuo, who was also following her: "I mean, you also go to rest!" ”
Du Shuo still had the same paralyzed face, and said in a straight tone: "Miss Twelve's mortal body, I am afraid that there will be danger at night, and the little one is ordered to protect you." ”
Shi Mian took two deep breaths, helpless, and let him follow.
Du Shuo didn't go into her room, just stayed outside, but this was enough to make Shi sleep uncomfortable, although Du Shuo claimed to be a subordinate, but her proud intuition told her: It is going to suffer if you use this person as a human being.
She pouted in frustration, no matter what, he wanted it anyway.
Shi Mianpan sat on the bed and took out a small cloth bag from his chest, this is the gadget that Lianxi Zhenjun gave her before leaving, it can be opened without spiritual power, but the space is much smaller than the ordinary Qiankun bag. It was originally filled with a jade pendant, which was said to be a talisman, and Shi Mian had already taken it out and put it on his body. Now it is filled with a hundred spirit stones given by Kong Yuan Zhenren, but it has been spent a lot by Shi Mian.
She had already heard of the spirit stone, and she had also seen it in her father's hands, a little bit, it looked beautiful, it was used as currency in the immortal cultivation world, and it was similar to the gold and silver of mortals, but the spirit stone was also divided into grades, she had seen it in Shi Moshu, and the Kong Yuan real person gave her, all of them were low-grade spirit stones. It is said that the spirit stones of the same level will have fewer and fewer impurities in them, which are more beautiful than she can see, and they can also directly absorb the spiritual energy inside, and most people are reluctant to take them out and trade. The one hundred lower grade spirit stones that Kong Yuan Zhenren gave her were also a lot, and it was said that the outer disciples of the Xiaoyun faction only distributed three per person every month.
Shi Mian counted the spirit stones one by one, eighty-four...... She has to keep eighty yuan, four spirit stones can't buy spirit beast meat that can be stuffed with cloth bags, it seems that she will have to bargain like crazy tomorrow, although Du Shuo seems to be very rich...... But since he bought a green rabbit for Shi Mian, Shi Mian has always been weird in his heart, alas, he really eats people with short mouths, and he still relies on what he eats comfortably.
