"Senior Sister Luo and Junior Brother Reconciliation haven't been out yet?" Wu Xie came to the cave where the two of them were in retreat again, but saw that An Ziqing was still alchemy at the door, the doors of the two stone rooms were still closed, and the breath behind the door was chaotic and difficult to distinguish, and it was still not clear.

An Ziqing shrugged his shoulders and smiled helplessly: "Rushing to the Ning Yuan realm in one breath, how can it be so easy!" I think I'm afraid that my Heavenly Fortune Pill has been refined, and they haven't come out yet. ”

Wu Xie swept his thoughts, and saw that the twelve spirit pills raised with potions in the Dan furnace had only slightly taken shape, and he couldn't help but sigh.

The Heavenly Fortune Pill is a kind of elixir that is claimed to be able to change luck against the sky, but in fact, its effect is to temporarily overdraft future luck, and exchange the misfortune of the next few months or even years for a moment of luck in front of you.

This approach seems silly at first glance, but in fact, at a critical moment, a little luck may determine life and death. As for the bad luck for a period of time after that - what does it matter if you can pick up your life, even if you are unlucky?

The formula of the Heavenly Fortune Pill is not complicated, and even Wu Xie knows it. However, in the refining process, it is not only necessary to strictly control the furnace temperature and the ratio of raw materials in the furnace, but also to continuously maintain it with a pure mind. To refine such a furnace of elixir, you must not sleep for a thousand days!

Although the monks have no leakage after stepping into the realm of refining gang, theoretically it is no problem not to eat, drink, or sleep. But a leakless body is not the same as steel cast iron, they will still be hungry, thirsty, and tired. After three years of sleepless work, almost no one could stand it.

This is also the reason why there are very few high-grade elixirs in the immortal cultivation world today-the method of fire refining has been basically eliminated because the success rate is too low; Although the success rate of the water refining method has been greatly improved, the process of long-term alchemy can be said to be torture, and there are few people who can afford it.

Because of this, the Shendan An family has obtained a status no less than that of many medium-sized sects as a family with the highest level of refining gang.

Behind this glory is the sleepless hard work of the An family day and night, and it is a heavy responsibility that makes people almost breathless!

Wu Xie thought of this, and couldn't help but sigh again.

An Ziqing has been guarding this furnace elixir for almost two years, he has a unique secret method, using thunder and lightning to stimulate himself to boost his spirits, and he is not particularly tired for the time being, but he knows very well that his description must be a little embarrassed. Seeing Wu Xie sigh at this moment, he still doesn't understand what the senior brother is thinking!

"Senior brother, we can't do martial arts, whether it's cultivation or fighting, there is nothing to get started, and what we rely on to live in peace is just this alchemy technique. In that case, what is the point of hard work? ”

He smiled slightly, and there was a bit of vicissitudes in his smile: "The secret method of our An family is actually not a secret, but why can't most of the factions in the world learn it?" It's just a matter of willingness to pay. If you are willing to put in the time and energy, you can become a good alchemist, and those characters who soar in the sky and crisscross Kyushu, how can they throw a good time on this? ”

Wu Xie hesitated for a moment and said, "If you are willing, junior brother, I can help you reproduce the method of fire refining......

"No need, the drawbacks of the Fire Refining Method have long been proven by time. Senior brother, your fire control technique is superb, and you may really be able to reproduce this stunt, but so what? Is there another person like you in the world? What's the point of spending some time and energy recreating a craft that is destined to be a masterpiece? ”

"Senior brother, you are like a red sun, destined to shine brightly in Kyushu, you should spend your time and energy on improving your cultivation and combat power. For us Qingyangguan, this is your greatest responsibility - don't forget, you are the one who will have to carry the entire Qingyangguan sooner or later! ”

Wu Xie was silent for a long time and nodded.

"So...... I'm sorry for you to watch here. ”

"It's not troublesome, it's just alchemy, isn't it the same everywhere."

Coming down from the cave of retreat, Wu Jie's mood couldn't help but feel a little heavy.

Since he condensed into the True Yuan, although his status in the sect has been further improved, the responsibility on his shoulders has also been much heavier. Whether it is a junior brother of the same generation or an older uncle, when talking to him, they often show their expectations for him.

This trust and appreciation is both an honor and a responsibility.

Although Wu Xie is very willing to shoulder this responsibility, he is a little less confident when he asks himself.

"Can I really do as well as everyone expects?" Back in the bamboo building, he looked at the young face in the mirror, but his eyes were already full of maturity, and he couldn't help but whisper to himself, "I really ...... Can you carry the entire Qingyang view? ”

"Who knows...... Don't you think it's too far away to think about these things? Jasmine advised, "It's too late to think about it when it's time to come." ”

"Yes, don't think too much about it, fourth. There are still so many Dan Patriarchs in your sect, and for a long time, you won't need to pick up the big beams. Du Ruo smiled and said, "I have something to trouble you." ”

"Although the third sister commanded, why should we talk about the word 'trouble' between us!"

Du Ruo raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "I have recently researched a new type of pastry, the taste is very unique, you go and spread it." ”

"It's easy." Wu Xie smiled, and then set off to go down the mountain.

A few days later, a new type of dish appeared all over the land of Kyushu, it is a pastry made of cactus, although it is still a little green in the mouth, but there is a special fragrance, take a bite, after the green and astringent, it will be full of fragrance, and it has been liked by people at once.

"I also researched a soup dish, you can also help me promote it."

"Okay."

A few days later, a soup dish made with beans and sea vegetables to create a broth-like flavor suddenly appeared in many restaurants all over the country. When this soup is drunk hot, there is a thick and fragrant flavor in the warmth, which makes many people who have not known the taste of meat for a long time laugh.

"That...... I still have a few dishes......"

"Okay, well, I'll help you promote it too."

New dishes have sprung up all over Kyushu, each with a different flavor but can be made with just a few common ingredients. These dishes are not strictly speaking, nor are they particularly delicious, but they are affordable for ordinary people. Even if it is a poor family, it can be done with a little effort.

Now that the drought that has lasted for many years in Kyushu has come to an end, the rivers are flowing again, and the dry land is gradually turning green. But after all, it is still a dry season, the harvest in the fields is not much, and the animals in the mountains are scarce. Although people know that the future will be better, they have to live a similar life as before, and they are inevitably a little sad in their hearts. The appearance of these dishes allows them to soothe their stomachs after years of hard work, and let their tongues and teeth that have been battling damn cacti and seaweed all year round enjoy a little.

Ordinary people are actually very satisfied, and these dishes, which may make people disdain at all in a good year, have made countless families smile at this moment. When your mouth and stomach are satisfied, you will be more energetic and confident in your future.

"Everybody's happy!" Under the moonlight, sitting on the thin clouds very close to the ground, looking at the town with a bit of a prosperous climate under his feet from a distance, Du Ruo smiled happily.

Wu Xie also smiled, these days, he has been running around all over the place. Not only should you try to promote those dishes, but you must also use as few spells as possible - it is not a good thing for immortals to interfere with the world with spells after all, and things that can be solved by lip service and money do not need to be used in vain.

After a busy period of time, he only felt that his negotiation ability had greatly improved. If reality were a game, he would have received more than one hint such as "You have made a successful negotiation and your negotiation ability has improved".

If you want to say that it is hard, it is naturally hard. Even immortals like comfort and hate labor, especially this kind of labor that does not use mana, which is even more tiring. But in addition to hard work, he also has a sense of accomplishment. Watching the dishes being promoted one by one, and hearing the laughter of thousands of households, the tiredness and hard work are nothing.

"Third sister, you have such a good idea! Although we can't let the harvest increase all at once, we can make people eat better. Wu Xie laughed for a while, and couldn't help but praise, "The same thing, made in different ways, has a completely different taste - why didn't we think of it before!" ”

"That's because you always think from the perspective of an immortal, not from the perspective of a diner." Du Ruo smiled and said, "I'm different from you, I'm a diner first, and then an immortal—no, I'm not an immortal yet...... Maybe it's because I'm not an immortal yet that I can look at the problem from a different perspective and find another solution. ”

Wu Xie nodded, what Du Ruo said was very reasonable. The process of cultivators gradually becoming immortals is also a process of gradually detaching themselves from the world. There are so many monks in the world, but none of them think of improving the taste of dishes to help people improve their lives, which is a good counterexample.

Zhang Guangli's predecessors, who have already ascended to heaven, are probably an exception, but he has been away from the world for many years - in fact, he has already ascended when the drought has just begun.

"Maybe...... Third sister, I think maybe you can take over the class of your predecessors and become the new god of the stove! ”

"Don't be funny! How can it be! ”

"It's not impossible, aren't there a lot of people worshipping the god of the stove these days? Heaven is selfless, since it is your credit, this incense will naturally fall on your head. ”

"Hehe, then I'm not going to become the Stove God Niangniang? Sounds terrible! Du Ruo pursed his lips, "It's almost the same as being called 'God of Food'!" ”

Before she could finish speaking, the sky suddenly flashed, and countless golden points of light appeared out of thin air, converging into a pillar of light and falling on top of her head.

After the light dissipated, Du Ruo's figure suddenly changed.

She usually wears a red dress, because this is what she wears when she is dying, and it belongs to part of the "death phase". Unless she uses her mana, she can't change her "death phase" as a ghost. But at this moment, the red robe on her body was replaced by a gorgeous robe, on which were embroidered with gold thread with patterns of many dishes, and the front and back were embroidered with a scene of staggered and laughing feasts. And a gorgeous crown appeared on the top of the head, inlaid with various precious jewels, colorful.

Such a picture should be comical, but when it appears on her robe, it has a warm and solemn feeling, which makes people feel amiable and respectable, and there is no blasphemy in the slightest.

And in Wu Jie's eyes, the ghost aura on Du Ruo's body has disappeared and has turned into a noble and majestic aura. If it weren't for the fact that she embodied more of the smell of fireworks in the world, I am afraid that even if she claims to be the empress, there will be a large number of people who believe it, right?

Of course, she is not an empress, but she is a far more noble existence than the emperor of the world.

"What is this? A word to become a god? Du Ruo was dumbfounded, reached out and tugged at the brocade robe on his body, touched the crown that suddenly appeared on his head, and hesitated for a while before accepting the facts, "I have really become a god of food?" ”

"It shouldn't have been completely transformed yet." Wu Xie had already calmed down, and compared with the records of the sect, he said calmly, "It is not mandatory for humanity to be a god, if you are not willing to be this god of food, you can resign within seven days." But the divine position can be resigned, but the humane protection cannot be resigned, and the divine light on the body cannot disappear completely. Wherever you go in the future, it's easy to see the clues. ”

"It's okay to quit!" Du Ruo immediately breathed a sigh of relief, stood up respectfully, and saluted to the sky, "God, I'm just talking about fun, and I don't want to be a god of food." Having good food and drink to share with everyone is what a person who loves food should do, and I feel ashamed to become a god for this. ”

After she finished speaking, she seemed to hear something, but Wu Jie, who was close at hand, didn't hear anything.

After a while, Du Ruo shook his head again and saluted again: "Just spare me!" Honestly, I'm a pretty lazy person. I don't have any skills...... It's okay to eat, sleep, and sleep, you let me manage the diet of the world, and I really can't do it...... No, no, no! Even if you give me some more power, I can't do it! I really don't like this ......."

There was a faint sigh in the sky, and the brocade robe and crown on Du Ruo's body disappeared without a trace, but there were still many golden lights and stars surrounding her, reflecting her vitality when she was originally full of gloomy and ghostly aura.

"Thank you! Thanks a lot! Du Ruo soon discovered his situation and hurriedly saluted to the sky again, "To be honest, this is what I like and need the most!" Having a flesh and blood body, being able to eat, drink and have fun with everyone is the happiest thing! ”

There was a faint laugh in the sky, and then silence fell back on.

Wu Xie waited for a long time, and when he saw that nothing happened anymore, he couldn't help but smile and said, "Third sister, don't you think it's a pity to resign from the position of the god of food?" ”

"It's a pity, what's so good about becoming a god?" Du Ruo smiled and said, "I'm fine now." ”

As she spoke, the powerful Yin Qi that had already accumulated in her body was burning violently as if it had been ignited by a little flame. In an instant, the yin and yang were born, and the countless points of light around her body fused, turning into a sense of peace and warmth, and a strong wind was born, supporting her body, blowing her clothes, and dancing skirts, like a fairy.

"I don't do it as a god of food, but it seems good to be a food fairy." Du Ruoyan smiled, and her eyebrows were full of flying and cheerful colors.

This was the look she always had when she was alive, but from her death to the present, for the first time in decades, Wu Xie had seen her smile regain such a smile.
