Time passed in a hurry, and Li Mengluan had spent three months at Hu Cuilan's house in a snap of his fingers. Hu Cuilan was solely responsible for the food for the first month, and later, under Li Mengluan's pleading, she was finally able to show off her cooking skills that she had carefully trained since she was a child, and made a meal of traditional dishes of the Moon Shadow Clan for the two. As soon as Hu Cuilan took the first bite, she felt that it was extremely delicious, and the dishes that looked ordinary and light in color were like jade plates, which made people can't stop tasting them. Hu Cuilan, who usually eats delicately during the meal, devoured it as if she had not eaten for several days, and praised Li Mengluan's cooking skills after eating.

Since then, the cooking work has been divided between the two, each responsible for one day, and the operation is carried out in turns, although Hu Cuilan wants to eat Li Mengluan's food every day, but her personality resolutely does not allow her to do so.

Li Mengluan lived in Hu Cuilan's house for three months, eating and drinking for nothing, even if he is now in charge of part of the meal, he still can't change this fact. Li Mengluan has always felt very guilty in his heart, but he has never thought of other ways to help Hu Cuilan.

On this day, the annual temple fair in Huanxing City was held in the Nuwa Temple in the north of the city, Hu Cuilan had not participated in it for three years, but this year she took Li Mengluan to go together, and the two suddenly became the most beautiful scenery in the temple fair. More than ninety percent of the people who saw Li Mengluan mistakenly thought that she was a nine-day fairy, and sighed, "This woman should only be in the sky, and the world has to smell it a few times."

In the temple fair, when Li Mengluan and Hu Cuilan were enjoying a performance on the stage, they suddenly found a restaurant on the street, Li Mengluan couldn't help but have a flash of inspiration, and said in his heart: "Since I am proud of my excellent cooking skills, why don't I try to become a chef in a restaurant?" If I succeed, I can make money to repay Sister Lan's kindness." ”

So in the early morning of the next day, Li Mengluan lied to Hu Cuilan, saying that she wanted to go to the market alone, Hu Cuilan completely trusted Li Mengluan and immediately agreed. Li Mengluan walked out of the gate and immediately ran to the restaurant he saw yesterday.

When Li Mengluan arrived, the restaurant had just opened, and the young man inside had seen Li Mengluan in the temple fair, and he was shocked at the time, and then he was fascinated, and Li Mengluan's figure often appeared in his sleep. Now that they met again, the young man immediately flew out of the sky, and even his speech seemed incoherent. Li Mengluan showed him his intention, and the young man hurriedly found the restaurant owner, not wanting that the boss and this guy were actually "the same passerby", so after listening to Li Mengluan's request, he immediately agreed. So Li Mengluan became the chef of this restaurant without much effort.

Li Mengluan reported the dishes he was good at one by one, and asked the boss if there were enough ingredients in the store, and the answer was naturally that there was no shortage of ----, so Li Mengluan began to prepare quickly.

After a while, the restaurant finally welcomed its first customer--- a man in his mid-thirties in his mid-twenties, the man looked at the wooden board on the wall of the store that had just been replaced by the guy a moment ago, with the name of the dish written on it, and was stunned for a moment, then called the guy and asked, "Xiao Zhang, have you added a new dish to the store?"

The guy named Xiao Zhang replied with a smile on his face: "Yes, do you want to try it?" ”

The man smiled and said, "Okay, just listen to you, I'll order these two new dishes, steamed sea bass and beef soup." ”

The guy said, "Okay, right away." After that, he entered the kitchen and told Li Mengluan about the dishes that needed to be cooked.

Without dissipating the tea, Li Mengluan prepared the dish and ordered the men to serve it to the diners. The man picked up a piece of beef and put it in his mouth, and as soon as he took the first bite, he felt that it was full of fragrance and deliciousness, and he had never tasted such a delicious and excellent food in his life. The man finished the meal at more than twice the usual rate, and at the checkout he was full of praise for the new dish and threatened to introduce it to all his relatives and friends.

With the increase of customers, more and more people ordered the dishes in charge of Li Mengluan, and people began to run to tell each other after eating, and in just a few hours, almost half of the people in the city knew the news that "the new dishes developed by a restaurant in the east of the city are extremely delicious and delicious". On this day, the restaurant welcomed more than five times as many customers as usual, and each customer felt that their lips and teeth were fragrant and aftertaste after eating, and they were full of praise for the new dishes. The restaurant owner was ecstatic and directly paid Li Mengluan three times the salary of the usual cook, which made the guy's eyes red.

For the first time in his life, Li Mengluan got the silver taels obtained by his own labor, and he was naturally elated and full of joy. After thanking the boss, Li Mengluan left the restaurant and went straight to the fabric stall across the street that had not yet been closed, and used the remuneration earned from hard work for a whole day to buy a fine fabric for Hu Cuilan that she had never been willing to buy, and then returned home with joy, humming a little song.

The moment I opened the door, the good mood of the road was instantly annihilated, and it was transformed into boundless anxiety and anger!

In the afterglow of the setting sun, a slender figure in a dark red robe flew over Li Mengluan's head, and in his arms was Hu Cuilan, who had fallen into a coma for some reason! The red figure was faster than thunder and lightning, and at the moment when Li Mengluan was stunned, Hu Cuilan had already flown out dozens of zhang away, and ran straight towards the grassland when Li Mengluan had cultivated the secret flow of the Phaseless Interpretation.

Although Li Mengluan is usually very arrogant and eclectic, his thinking is not dull at all, how could he let the robbers escape at this moment? Li Mengluan immediately put down the fabric in his hand and chased after him with all his might, and his speed was not inferior to that of the red-robed guest, and the distance between the two was always kept within one zhang. The two of them ran out of a hundred miles in one breath, and finally arrived at the endless grassland.

The red-robed guest suddenly stopped running, and his body slowly landed, his movements were elegant and elegant, and he even felt like he was not eating the fireworks of the world. Li Mengluan followed closely behind, landing suddenly, his clothes hunting and dancing in the wind, like a nine-day fairy falling into the mortal dust, and his momentum was not inferior to that of the red-robed guest.

After Li Mengluan stood still on the grass, he immediately opened his mouth and asked aloud: "This master, the little woman is not talented, dare to ask Your Excellency what is your intention to forcibly kidnap a weak woman from a good family?"

Hearing this, the red-robed guest slowly turned his body around and faced Li Mengluan. After seeing the "face" of the red-robed guest, Li Mengluan's vigilance against him instantly increased by one level, secretly accelerating the operation of Zhou Tian, the true qi in his body, fully accumulating strength, and ready to meet the enemy at any time.

It turned out that this red-robed guest was wearing a blue-faced fangs, a hideous and terrifying mask, and the mask completely covered his face, making people feel an inexplicable cold and murderous aura rushing to their faces. Because of his gender-casual hairstyle, Li Mengluan still can't tell whether he is a man or a woman.

The two stood still and confronted each other for a long time, before the red-robed guest opened his mouth to respond to Li Mengluan's question, his voice was clear and pleasant, and full of neutrality, which showed that his cultivation was profound, but it was still difficult to distinguish between male and female with this voice alone.

"Ben Daxia has always hated excuses, so there is no reason to do things. ”

Li Mengluan's expression did not change in the slightest, but his voice was a little lower than before.

"Since there is no reason, can Your Excellency hand over this woman to you?"

There was a cold laugh from behind the mask, and the red-robed guest's words were full of contempt: "If you want to save her, you must overcome me." However, looking at your slender body, I am afraid that I will fall down if the breeze blows, so I naturally can't resist the one and a half moves of this hero. ”

Li Mengluan's cold light flashed in the depths of the two pools of seven-colored immortal springs, and said in a very calm tone: "I haven't tried, how do you know?"

The red-robed guest snorted coldly, and said in a deep voice: "The little girl who has not dried up is not small! Today, this hero will teach you to see and see powerfully, and kill your temperament that does not know the height of the sky!"

After saying that, the red-robed guest gently pressed his right palm on Hu Cuilan's back, and a light and elegant sky blue light curtain covered Hu Cuilan's body. The red-robed guest pushed slightly, and the light curtain took Hu Cuilan into the air, floating to the north more than a mile away from the two, and suspended in mid-air.

"This curtain of light will protect it from any damage in the battle between you and me, and you can use all your power against me, as long as you can knock my mask off, you will win. The red-robed guest raised his voice.

Li Mengluan smiled slightly and said, "It seems that Your Excellency's humanity has not been completely extinguished. ”

The red-robed guest said coldly: "Little girl, this is what you want to challenge this hero yourself, if your mental power is out of control and you are killed by mistake, you are not allowed to blame me." ”

After saying that, he pinched a cross mantra with both hands, and silently recited in his mouth:

"There is a beast in the mountain of Gowu, its shape is like a sheep's body and human face, its eyes are under the armpits, tiger teeth and human claws, its voice is like a baby, it is a cannibal. The ancient beasts were summoned by me and driven by me. At this coming, the fifth son of the ninth son of the dragon ---- gluttonous. ”

A cyan shining thunder as thick as a tree stem burst out in the sky, and after the thunder flashed, an unusually huge figure appeared in front of Li Mengluan!

When the afterglow of Lei Mang dissipated, Li Mengluan completely saw the behemoth that suddenly appeared in front of him.

It was a giant beast with a blood-colored glow, its face was extremely hideous, its eyes were actually located under its armpits, blazing like two flames, there was a pair of curved horns on its head, but it was impossible to distinguish that it looked like a sheep or a cow, a pair of huge claws resembled human hands, and its nails were extremely sharp. Its huge mouth was wide open, its sharp teeth were like saws, and a very strong cold and bloody aura came from its mouth. After Li Mengluan took a closer look at the monster in front of him, his expression changed slightly, and he was worried that something was wrong.

"Isn't this the first of the ancient beasts recorded in the ancient books, the fifth son of the nine sons of the dragon---- gluttony? If this is the case, then with my current cultivation, I will never even touch its fur. What is the origin of this man, who can summon such a powerful beast here and use it for himself. ”

Li Mengluan's thoughts were not broken, the gluttony had already rushed towards her, its momentum was overwhelming, like a mountain of sea, just with the sprint and rolled up the air fluctuations have shaken the ground within a radius of several miles to the ground, the completely collapsed earth turned into a bottomless sinkhole, in the deep pit there is a scorching air flow constantly rising, obviously the great energy generated by the gluttonous movement, has burned all the sand and gravel into charcoal.
