There are three souls in the human body, which are called the heavenly soul, the earth soul, and the human soul, and the main soul, the awakened soul, and the living soul.

There are clouds in the Tao Sutra, all things in the world, the genus of plants and trees has only one soul, the name is the soul, its head is downward, only knows the fruit, and does not know the bitterness and happiness.

Birds and beasts have two souls, one is the soul of life, knowing how to grow and walk, and the other is the soul of awakening, whose head is straight, knowing pain and joy, seeing difficulties and knowing how to avoid, seeing food and seeking, knowing food and clothing, and knowing enmity and hatred.

Man is the primate of all things, with three souls in his body, and his head is facing the sky, so man has three souls and seven spirits, knows good and evil, and knows right and wrong, which is the image of heaven and earth.

To put it bluntly, the living soul is the one who dominates life, generally speaking, it also refers to the soul of a living person, or the soul of a person who is about to die.

However, looking at Qiu Xiaodie's current condition, it should be fine for the time being.

Bai Chang breathed a sigh of relief and said, "This is a place you shouldn't come, but don't worry, I'll take you away." But there's one thing you have to tell me first...... Yesterday outside your house, why did you shout indecent assault? ”

"Because, because I don't want people to see me with you......"

Bai Chang almost spurted out a mouthful of old blood, what kind of strange reason is this, if you don't want people to see it, you have to shout indecent to catch hooligans? This eldest lady's temper is really different.

"Hehe, you don't want that person to see it, right, it's your boyfriend?" Bai Chang thought of the high-flying and domineering Shao Gongzi, and felt unhappy for a while.

"I'm sorry, it's a bit complicated, but you believe me, I'm afraid that something will be bad for you."

"Well, it doesn't matter. However, your illness this time is not light, even your soul has left your body, if you don't meet me, your soul will be out of your body for seven days, then you will die. ”

"What, my soul is out of my body?" Qiu Xiaodie looked surprised, "You mean, I'm out of my body?" I'm not alive now? So what exactly is this place? ”

"Yes, you're not alive now, you can think so. This is Yin Si Street, the place where yin and yang meet, and living people can't come here. ”

"Ah, then why are you here, are you dead too?"

"I'm not dead......"

"And what are you doing here?"

Qiu Xiaodie immediately entered the curious baby mode, Bai Chang was speechless for a while, in order to avoid Qiu Xiaodie's endless questions, he had to tell the truth.

"That's right, today the son of the Shaw Group came to me and said that there was a banquet in five days and invited me to be a chef, and I came here to find the ingredients for cooking, as for why I came here to find it, you don't have to ask, because it's a secret ......"

Before he could finish speaking, Qiu Xiaodie's mouth opened wide with a look of surprise and indignation.

"Don't go, don't go, what a bullshit banquet, you can't go."

"Why aren't you allowed to go?" Bai Chang was a little surprised, shouldn't this eldest lady's focus be on cooking?

Qiu Xiaodie lowered her head, bit her lip and said, "Because this banquet is my birthday party, and it is also my engagement party." ”

"What, your engagement reception? That's a good thing, why are you reacting so much? Bai Chang was a little surprised, it stands to reason that the engagement banquet is a happy event, how do you look at Qiu Xiaodie's expression, as if she is dead?

"Because my parents agreed to this marriage, I don't want to, and I ...... The object of engagement is the waste of the Shao family, Shao Wuwu. ”

"It turned out to be him."

Bai Chang suddenly realized, no wonder Shao Wuwu's attitude towards himself during the day turned out to be eating Qiu Xiaodie's vinegar.

"If it's him, you don't have to be so angry."

Bai Chang touched his nose and said with a smile: "He mistakenly took one of my bad luck charms, and it is estimated that his luck will be very bad recently, so this engagement, nine times out of ten, will not be successful." ”

Qiu Xiaodie shook her head and said, "This time is different, as long as he doesn't die, I'm afraid it will be difficult for me to dodge." ”

She indignantly told Bai Chang the reason, it turned out that the Shao family and the Qiu family were originally world friends, but in recent years, the Qiu family has declined, and the business is not as good as before.

That Shao Wuwu has been pestering Qiu Xiaodie, he is the only child in the family, taking this opportunity, the Shao family took the opportunity to marry as a condition, using a high interest-free settlement as a bait, soft grinding and hard bubbles, the Qiu family had no choice but to agree to the Shao family's proposal.

There is no doubt that this marriage can save the Qiu family from fire and water, but Qiu Xiaodie doesn't want to die, last night she and Bai Chang came back from Songfeng Mountain, Shao Gongzi came to her, but secretly intended to mistreat her, and she made a big fuss in front of the whole family.

Therefore, she shouted indecent last night, just because she didn't want to cause trouble at the door of her house, and now when she heard that Bai Chang was going to be the chef for the Shao family's engagement banquet, of course she was even more unhappy.

"I didn't hesitate to commit suicide in order to resist this marriage, you say, how could I be willing to engage him?"

"Suicide, no wonder you're here." Bai Chang suddenly realized, wanted to laugh, but held back, looked at Qiu Xiaodie and said, "I really want to know, Miss Qiu, how did you commit suicide?" ”

"I went on a hunger strike and didn't eat for a day."

"Poof...... Please, it's okay not to starve to death without eating for a day? ”

"yes, I found out too. And I think that if I don't eat, I'm not starving, I'm starving......"

"Well, how did you kill yourself?"

"I took half a bottle of sleeping pills."

"Ah, you really have the courage, after taking sleeping pills?"

And then ...... I don't think sleeping pills are very tasty. ”

Bai Chang was speechless, and said with a smile: "Please, I didn't ask you if it tasted good, I mean, did anyone save you later?" ”

Qiu Xiaodie tilted her head and thought, "There should be, anyway, I was in a daze and didn't know anything, so I woke up and was here...... Anyway, you are not allowed to go anyway, if you don't go, the banquet will not be done, and the marriage will not be engaged......"

Bai Chang couldn't help laughing: "What does this have to do with me, I'm not the only cook in the world...... No, since your soul has left your body and come to Yin Si Street, you are in a state of unconsciousness in the yang world, so you can't get engaged at all. ”

"Hey, you're right...... Qiu Xiaodie was happy, "Then I won't go back, I'll just stay here and see how they get engaged." ”

"But if you stay here for a few more days, you'll really die, otherwise, the engagement banquet is five days later, you stay here first, and after the engagement banquet, I'll pick you up again, how about it?"

Bai Chang's idea is good, Qiu Xiaodie stays on Yin Si Street for five days, and then comes to pick up Qiu Xiaodie back, the time is just right.

Qiu Xiaodie thought about it and thought it was feasible, but looked around and said timidly, "But, this place is eerie and terrifying, is it really, really going to stay here for five days?" ”

"Haven't you always been bold?" Bai Chang looked at her funny, thought about it and said: "That's it, I have an acquaintance here, you just stay with him first, don't be afraid, although he is an old ghost, he is a very good person, and like you, he is a foodie." ”

Indeed, this is the only way to avoid engagement at present, it is estimated that the Shao family can't guess that Qiu Xiaodie committed suicide in a coma and is unconscious, but in fact, his soul is hidden in Yin Si Street.

So Bai Chang sent Qiu Xiaodie to the sixth sentence, originally Qiu Xiaodie was still a little resistant, after all, he was a century-old ghost, not to mention Qiu Xiaodie, no one would have to be afraid.

However, with a lotus leaf chicken leg in his belly, Qiu Xiaodie was already familiar with the old man and something, and was very interested in the things on his stall, and asked the sixth finger to show her.

Seeing this scene, Bai Chang relieved his heart, and at the same time sighed greatly: In this world, what is more terrible than one foodie is two foodies.

"It seems that the engagement banquet in five days will really be lively."

Bai Chang muttered to himself, walked to the other end of Yin Si Street, stretched out his hand to draw in front of him, and the gray mist gradually dissipated, revealing the archway with red lanterns.

He stepped out of the woods just now, looked left and right, and was about to go home, when he suddenly saw a dark figure squatting under a tree next to him.

A smile appeared at the corner of Bai Chang's mouth, this forest is usually inaccessible, and what appears here at this time is naturally a ghost.

He played with a protrusion, did not make a sound, quietly walked behind the "ghost", and kicked the cold.

This kick was kicking the "ghost" in the ass, and when he heard the "ghost" scream, he jumped up, held the pants on his waist with both hands, and ran away.

The scream was like that of a woman, and it was so fast that it disappeared into the depths of the woods in the blink of an eye.

Bai Chang looked into the distance dumbfounded, looking confused.

"The ghost now...... Are you so daring? ”

Bai Chang couldn't help but laugh, but soon frowned again.

Although the ambergris essence is done, among the three ingredients that the immortal guides the way, one is more difficult than the other.

Next, I have to look for the spirit corpse mushroom, it is said that this kind of thing only grows on the body of the hundred-year-old spirit corpse in the land of nine yin.

As for Wan Nianqing, it is even more legendary.

Of course, Bai Chang was still confident that within five days, according to the records in the Bai family's recipe, he would get these ingredients together.

After leaving the woods, Bai Chang went straight home.

When I opened the door of the hotel, a dark wind blew through it.

Bai Chang couldn't help but shudder, and when he looked at it, the whole person was stunned.

The restaurant was a mess, there were traces of people turning it over everywhere, and even the counter was opened.

Is it a thief?

Bai Chang rushed into the hotel and saw that the floor was full of messes, but after a quick inspection, he found that nothing had been lost.

The girl who was sleeping in the bedroom is gone.

Also, the scroll he brought back from Qiu Xiaodie's house was also opened and fell to the ground.

Could it be that someone took advantage of his absence to break into the hotel and take the girl away?
