Chapter 59: Yanggu Rice
A dark corner of the crack.
Guan Peng sat on a flat stone, silently running the blood boiling method, and the fiery hot breath emanated from his pores, turning it into a scorching furnace.
Squatting at the entrance of the crack in the ground, Zhu Gui and Yang Qing muttered something quietly, raising their heads from time to time to guard the surroundings.
was slapped by Guan Peng, and Ning Jie, who was greatly frustrated, sat alone in a corner far away from Guan Peng, looking dazed, not knowing what to think.
The three people who were accepted by Guan Pengxin were busy carrying hay, firewood and stored water bladders in the cracks of the ground.
After completing today's cultivation, Guan Peng slowly opened his eyes, and his lips exhaled a breath of turbidity.
The progress of the Blood Boiling Method is still as slow as ever, and it takes a little bit of proficiency to increase every hour, making the road to upgrade this skill particularly long.
"If that Yang Valley can't work as Zhu Gui and the others said, judging from the current progress, it will take me at least one to two years to reach the tenth level of the Overlord Ding Liver.
This is still with the blessing of God's reward for hard work, and if ordinary people want to complete the entire process of boiling blood, it will take more than three years at the earliest. β
The progress of the blood boiling method was slow, and Guan Peng had expected it.
After all, the so-called boiling of blood itself is a water grinding work, staying up every day and sharpening it night and night, so that the qi and blood can be perfected.
If you don't take shortcuts, no one can complete the blood boiling in less than three years.
Dissipating the operation of the blood boiling method, Guan Peng glanced at the busy trio in the crack in the ground, Yang Qing and Zhu Gui who were vigilantly observing, and Ning Jie, who had not yet eased up......
"You need this calm, so let's keep it going." After silently reciting a sentence, Guan Peng closed his eyes and recovered the spirit of cultivating the blood boiling method.
The next few days.
In addition to practicing the blood boiling method every day, Guan Peng continued to learn martial arts with several people.
And Ning Jie also came out of the haze after a day and a half of depression, and she figured it out.
Several of them and Guan Peng have only been in a cooperative relationship until now.
Guan Peng provided them with shelter and water, while they accompanied them to hone their martial arts and deal with some trivial chores.
Between the two parties, each takes what he needs.
As a result, she insisted that Guan Peng not accept the trio, and she had already surpassed this level of cooperation.
If they are equal in strength, then this kind of transgression can be mitigated and negotiated in other ways.
But in fact, between the two parties, Guan Peng has absolute dominance and right to speak.
Then her transgression has become unruly presumptuousness!
In the same situation, she herself may have gone too far than Guan Peng.
For Ning Jie's ability to adjust quickly, Guan Peng also admired her ability to bend and stretch, and didn't say much.
Until the eighth day when they guarded the Valley of the Sun, in the cave in the cracks of the earth.
It was noon that day.
A cloud of crimson fire suddenly exploded in the sky.
The clouds of fire tumbled and surged, slowly turning into a handwriting that could be seen by the entire Ten Thousand Beasts in the air.
Four!
"Four?" The loud noise also attracted the attention of Guan Peng and his party in the cracks of the ground.
Looking up at the big red clouds on the blue sky that had not dispersed for a long time, Ning Jie frowned, bit her lip and said:
"Some people have successfully broken through to the perfection of qi and blood, completed the selection, and now there are only four of the five places left."
Hearing Ning Jie's words, everyone present, except for Guan Peng, looked sink, and couldn't help but look into the depths of the crack.
Someone completed the selection ahead of schedule, which undoubtedly dealt a heavy blow to everyone.
And their only hope now is deep in the cracks in the ground, the Yang Valley that doesn't know when it will mature.
"This Yang Valley won't wait until the end of the selection to mature." Rubbing his palms, a wave of impatience welled up between Yang Qing's eyebrows.
For each reduction in the number of places, the lower the probability of successfully breaking through the selection.
"This can be said, this kind of walking-level treasure, let alone eating, it is the first time we have seen it, when it will grow up, I am afraid it can only depend on the will of heaven."
also showing an anxious look, Zhu Gui held his hands and two thumbs up and turned back and forth.
For a while, everyone subconsciously looked at Guan Peng.
"Look at what I'm doing, go see Yanggu." With a blank look at everyone, Guan Peng turned around and walked towards the depths of the crack.
"Oh, yes, yes, yes."
Everyone nodded in panic and hurriedly followed Guan Peng.
The sound of trivial and messy footsteps sounded in the cracks on the ground, and although they knew that there was little hope, everyone with their own thoughts still faintly looked forward to the maturity of Yanggu.
Back in the deepest stone chamber of the cracks, the golden ears of rice were still swaying quietly in the dark, and they didn't seem to change.
Walking forward, Zhu Gui carefully inspected the rhizome of each ear of rice.
No......
Zhu Gui turned around gloomily and shook his head at everyone.
The last little hope in their hearts was shattered, and a trace of disappointment could not help but rise in everyone's hearts.
"There is no way, I can only wait for ......" Zhu Gui's words did not fall, and he suddenly found that the eyes of everyone on the opposite side showed a look of shock and joy.
Don't......
His eyes widened slightly, and Zhu Gui hurriedly turned around.
I saw that on the Yanggu rhizome in front of him, a dazzling golden streamer was slowly spreading upwards from the roots, until it crossed the entire rhizome and submerged into the rice ears.
"Cheng ...... It's done! β
With irrepressible ecstasy in his tone, Zhu Gui moved slightly, and reached out to carefully remove a grain from the round and plump ears of rice!
The rice grains like golden beads lay in Zhu Gui's palm, and the rich fragrance of rice wafted, making this small stone room like a sea of rice.
"That's what it is...... Yanggu? Twisting up the rice grains, Guan Peng looked up and down, with a slight force on his two fingers, the surface of the rice grains cracked instantly, and a round like a pearl and a pure white rice fell out of it.
"Eat it straight?" Looking at the pearl-like Yanggu rice, Guan Peng asked Zhu Gui.
Swallowing his saliva, Zhu Gui nodded and said: "Ancient books record that it is best to use pure Yanggu spring water to cook Yanggu rice, but we don't have that condition now, and it is okay to swallow it directly." β
"Okay, you can eat." Guan Peng raised his hand and threw the Yanggu rice in his hand directly to Zhu Gui.
"Ah, give...... Give me? I didn't expect the good thing to come so suddenly, Zhu Gui suppressed the joy in his heart, and said in a trembling voice: "Thank you Brother Peng, thank you Brother Peng." β
Looking at the excited Zhu Gui, Guan Peng smiled and did not speak.
And Ning Jie on the side had already secretly laughed in their hearts, and Zhu Gui was naΓ―ve.
Silly boy, he's not rewarding you, he's testing you for poison!
However, although they thought so in their hearts, several people still had a faint envy in their hearts that Zhu Gui could be the first to eat Shangyanggu rice.
After all, no matter how it was divided later, Zhu Gui had already occupied one more Yanggu rice than them.
Under the curious and expectant gaze of everyone, Zhu Gui picked up the pure white and flawless Yanggu rice and slowly put it into his mouth.
Boom β
Without chewing, the soybean-sized Yanggu rice was swallowed directly into Zhu Gui's stomach.
"What does it feel?" Guan Peng asked curiously.
"Well, sweet, eat it, your stomach is a little hot, and then it's ...... Ahem, ahem! Before he finished speaking, Zhu Gui's face suddenly changed drastically, and he began to cough, and pools of black and purple blood came out of his mouth with a rapid coughing sound.
