Chapter 178: Liujia Village
Three days later, Yan Nantian packed his bags, left Wujiang Town from the West City Gate, and rushed in the direction of Jiangcheng.
In fact, according to Yan Nantian's original idea, he wanted to hire people from the Tiedan mercenary group and let them escort him to Jiangcheng, so that he could avoid getting lost and increase his safety.
However, Zhang Jiuling did not agree, according to Zhang Jiuling's statement, cultivators are going against the sky, if they can't even break through this danger, why talk about going outside, it is better to simply stay in Wujiang Town.
Yan Nantian left Wujiang Town early in the morning, and many villagers who lived outside the town pushed the goods towards Wujiang Town, and only Yan Nantian walked in the opposite direction, looking lonely.
A few days ago, the New Year had passed, Yan Nantian was already seventeen years old, according to Wujiang Town's algorithm, he had changed from a teenager to a young man, according to the Tianyuan Continent, he was already an adult.
In the past three months, Yan Nantian felt that it had passed quickly, but he had also benefited a lot, not only had his cultivation reached the peak of the first order, but he was also more proficient in the use of spiritual sense.
"Hehe, I've finally left that narrow Wujiang Town, I still like the vast Eternal Forest. Zhang Jiuling used his spiritual sense to transmit his voice, and from the tone of his voice, Yan Nantian could feel that he was in a good mood.
After three months of getting along, the two of them became familiar with each other, and they spoke more casually: "Senior Zhang, I heard that the Eternal Forest is very dangerous, and I am on the road alone, there is no problem." β
"I've said it many times. You kid is timid, even if the Eternal Forest is dangerous, it is only talking about the depths of the Eternal Forest, from Wujiang Town to the boundary of Jiangcheng, it is the edge of the Eternal Forest, most of them are first-order demonic beasts, and your current cultivation is enough to deal with it. Zhang Jiuling said.
"Senior, I'm not cowardly, I'm just afraid that your cultivation is high and your vision is high, and it will be easy for you. My little body may not be able to stand it. Yan Nantian said with a smile.
"Don't worry, kid. I'm not the kind of person who is ambitious, and it's even harder not to give you things that can't be done. Zhang Jiuling shook his head slightly and said, "Then again, experience more dangers and battles." It's also a good thing for you kid. At least not to be a flower in a greenhouse. β
"I'm a spirit chef. I'm not a warrior, why have I gone through so many battles?" Yan Nantian asked.
"Take the fight between you and Pang Hongyi three months ago. The two of you are of equal status, if it weren't for your strength being stronger than his, would you be able to subdue each other lightly? Zhang Jiuling said.
"Then if I put more experience on enhancing my combat effectiveness, will it affect my cooking skills? Yan Nantian asked rhetorically.
"Then it depends, what do you call a kitchen?"
"Senior, what do you say? How many kinds of cooking do you think?"
"According to my thoughts, there are only two kinds, one is barefoot and the other is a sitting kitchen. Zhang Jiuling said.
"What is a barefoot spirit chef?"
"Barefoot spirit chefs, pay more attention to their own cultivation and strength, they study and study the spirit kitchen dishes, are also beneficial to their own cultivation and strength, once they eat all the spirit kitchen dishes in one place, they will go to another place to taste new spirit kitchen dishes, because different places have different ingredients, will also make different spirit kitchen dishes, so their cultivation and strength grow rapidly, but also because they want to wander in different regions, they must have strong strength, otherwise, they encounter danger on the road and even have no ability to save themselvesγ Zhang Jiuling said.
"Then what is a sitting spirit chef?"
"The Spirit Chef is more like an ordinary chef, they stay in the Spirit Kitchen Restaurant for a long time, cooking Spirit Kitchen dishes for those cultivators, although they can get more Spirit Stones in a short period of time, but sooner or later it will affect their own cultivation. Zhang Jiuling said.
Hearing Zhang Jiuling's words, Yan Nantian pondered for a while and said, "Senior, according to your previous classification method, can I understand that the spirit kitchen is both a chef and a cultivator, and the spirit chef who sits in the hall is more focused on the identity of a chef, while the barefoot spirit kitchen is more focused on the identity of a cultivator. "Yannan Heavenly Dao.
"Yes, exactly. Zhang Jiuling said, "What kind of spirit chef do you want to become?"
"Senior, what kind of spirit chef can go further, become a more advanced spirit chef?" Yan Nantian asked.
"Of course, it's a barefoot spirit chef, a barefoot spirit chef pays attention to his own cultivation and strength, if his cultivation is high, he can cook high-level spirit kitchen dishes, and if he eats high-level spirit kitchen dishes, his cultivation will increase more and more, which is a complementary reason, and his personal combat effectiveness has been enhanced, which can not only enhance his own safety, but also be able to snatch more cultivation resources. Zhang Jiuling explained.
"Then are you a sitting spirit chef or a barefoot spirit kitchen?" Yan Nantian asked.
"Of course I'm a barefoot spirit cook. Zhang Jiuling said.
"Then I want to be a barefoot chef too. Yan Nantian pondered for a moment and said in a firm tone.
"Hehe, boy, it's not easy to become a barefoot spirit chef, you need to be prepared in advance. Zhang Jiuling said.
"Senior, you didn't let me hire a mercenary group, but let me go on the road alone, didn't you already want to train me to be a barefoot spirit chef?" Yan Nantian smiled and asked rhetorically.
"Ahem......"
Zhang Jiuling coughed lightly, and Yan Nantian saw through his thoughts, which made him feel a little embarrassed, and deliberately changed the topic, saying: "Boy, your current combat effectiveness is too weak, and you can't even protect your own safety, and you are still far from becoming a barefoot spirit chef." β
"Senior, haven't you seen it before? I can also use the martial arts of the Heavenly Wave White Tiger, and I am also a rare opponent among the monks of the same rank. Yan Nantian said.
"Come on, although your Tianbo White Tiger's martial arts skills are good, you want to be invincible in the world with one martial art, which is really arrogant. Zhang Jiuling sneered.
"Senior, you think I don't want to learn more martial arts, it's just that inheritance dishes are not so easy to taste. Yan Nantian spread his hands and said helplessly: "Otherwise, you will teach me an inheritance dish." β
"It's not impossible for me to teach you the inheritance dishes, but can you find the ingredients I need?" Zhang Jiuling was silent for a moment, feeling that he should still give Yan Nantian a little sweetness, otherwise if the other party was killed due to his weak strength, his fate would not be better.
"I don't dare to say that it's far away, but I can try it near Jiangcheng. "Yannan Heavenly Dao.
"I've read the booklet of the first-order ingredients, and I remember that there is a Tiens Demon Beast nearby, which can be made into an interesting inheritance dish. Zhang Jiuling said.
"Oh, what kind of martial art is the inheritance dish made by the Heavenly Lion Demon Beast, will it be the same as the Tianbo White Tiger martial art?" Yan Nantian asked.
"Have you ever heard of the Lion's Roar?" Zhang Jiuling said.
"Sonic martial arts. Yan Nantian guessed.
"Yes, you can attack in a group and sneak attack, and when you cooperate with the Tianbo White Tiger, you can definitely double your combat effectiveness. Zhang Jiuling said.
Hearing Zhang Jiuling's description, a fine light flashed in Yan Nantian's eyes, and he said, "Okay, then let's make this inheritance dish." β
"You take out that booklet and take a look at it, and see where the habitat of the Tiens Demon Beast is. Zhang Jiuling said.
"Hmm. β
Yan Nantian responded, looked at the booklet, and studied it for a long time after comparing it with the map near Jiangcheng before saying: "Senior, according to my speculation, it should be in the southwest of us, and there is a Liujia Village nearby, why don't we go there and inquire." β
"Okay, just do as you say. Zhang Jiuling responded.
After the discussion, Yan Nantian hurried forward again, and went straight to Liujia Village in the southwest, the people of Liujia Village have lived in this vicinity for generations, and they should be more familiar with the situation in this vicinity, even if they can't help with anything else, at least they can become Yan Nantian's guide, which is better than Yan Nantian's black one.
Yan Nantian came to this neighborhood for the first time, and he was not familiar with the location of Wujia Village, so he searched for more than an hour on the map, and found that there was a village not far away.
The area of the village does not seem to be very large, there is a winding path to pass, Yan Nantian walked along the path towards Liujia Village, and he could vaguely see two figures in front of him.
Two figures with spears in their hands, standing not far from the entrance of the village, saw Yan Nantian coming over, and asked a little vigilantly: "Stop, who are you?"
"I'm a herb picker, and if I want to pick herbs nearby, I need to find a guide. Yan Nantian said.
One of the tall guards glanced at Yan Nantian and said, "Seeing that your kid is not very old, he shouldn't be a bad person, go in." β
Although Liujia Village is relatively closed, it does not prohibit outsiders from entering, and acting as a guide for outsiders is also a source of income for the villagers of Liujia Village.
"Boy, wait a minute, don't rush inside, do you see the vegetation on the right? If my estimate is correct, that vegetation should be Mangyun Grass, which is an auxiliary ingredient for cooking the dishes of the Heavenly Lien Demon Beast Inheritance, you had better get some. Zhang Jiuling said.
"Okay, I'll go take a look. Yan Nantian passed the two guards and walked in the direction of the vegetation, however, before he could reach the field, there was a stitch of scolding from behind him.
"Stop, don't go there, if you destroy the Mangyun Grass, you kid can't afford to compensate. The tall guard shouted.
"Do you also know that this is Mangyun Grass?" Hearing the name of Mangyun Grass from a villager surprised Yan Nantian.
"Of course, this is planted by our Spirit Chef, and I have been instructed to guard it, even at night, there is a special person on duty, you kid don't have a bad idea. The tall guard said with pride.
"Do you still have a spirit kitchen in Liujia Village?" Yan Nantian asked with some surprise.
