Shi San's two rooms, one is used as a kitchen, and the other is the bedroom of his uncle and nephew. There were two beds in it, and I couldn't turn around.

"Teacher Chen, you came just in time, and I just came back from the city lord's mansion to receive a salt reward. Shi San moved the table and stool out of the kitchen, and after placing a stool, he said to Chen Hao, "You sit down first." We'll eat in the courtyard later, and the kitchen will be full of black smoke. ”

Chen Hao sat down and asked, "Then how much salt did you receive?"

"Hehe, it's not bad. The master of the government gave me a whole tael. ”

Chen Hao now knows that here, the price of rice cannot be used to measure the price difference between Baekko-dong and other places. Because the rice in Haekoma-dong is also valuable.

Only the flesh of beasts, as well as the products of beasts and monsters, are popular things.

So don't look at one or two salts, you can only buy ten salted meat buns, and the value of the buns is the bun skin made of flour, and the salt added to it. This one or two salts is indeed a good income. If you use a hundred catties of meat as a seasoning, you can eat it for two or three months.

Of course, if you want to eat some rice noodles, it is a bit of a luxury!

"Third uncle, the meat is almost cooked, Brother Hao is here as a guest today, do you want to use some salt?" asked Ah Yue.

Shi San flattened the table in the courtyard, turned around and said, "Put some." ”

"Don't!" Chen Hao hurriedly stopped: "Just use salt vegetables, by the way, "one ~ book" read the novel xstxt can also be eaten as a vegetable. ”

"That's not hospitality. "Shi Sandao.

"Now that you're here, of course you'll want to try your specialties. To be honest, I eat too many dishes made with salt, and I want to taste what the dishes taste like. Chen Hao said.

Shi San scratched his head and said to Ah Yue: "Okay, Ah Yue, you can just do what you did before." ”

The meat in the pot was almost cooked, but there was no aroma wafting out. Chen Hao estimated that this is because of "salt refining", and most of the refined animal meat has also destroyed its organic compound composition, so it will not feel the unique meat aroma.

Lunch is very simple, a big bowl of stewed animal meat with soup and water for one person.

There are some minced salt vegetables in it, and the broth with oil splashes and green salt vegetables floating on top of it, which looks good.

However, Chen Hao knew as soon as he ate it, and the taste was indeed very bad.

The first is that there is no fragrance, for reasons that have already been mentioned. In addition, the fat in animal meat is generally relatively small, so it tastes very woody.

Moreover, the astringency of the salted vegetables has also been integrated into the meat and soup, and as for the saltiness, Chen Hao can hardly feel it, as if he is eating boiled meat. But fortunately, there is still a bit of astringent taste, otherwise it is estimated that Chen Hao will not be able to eat it at all.

"Meat that has been refined with salt just doesn't smell good. Mr. Chen, please bear with me. Shi San saw Chen Hao's blank face when he ate it, and he knew that it must be out of taste.

"Ok, unique flavor. Chen Hao said a comment that was not very contrary to his will.

"The duck I caught outside was roasted and delicious. Ah Yue took a sip of broth and said: "Salt is the essence of meat, and what is left after practice is dregs, just to fill the stomach." ”

Regarding Ah Yue's wrong cognition, Chen Hao just smiled.

The nutrition of this food is actually still there. It's just that some minerals and organic compounds are missing, and the aroma of the meat is what these things give off. To explain these things clearly to Ah Yue, Chen Hao estimated that it was really a little difficult.

After lunch, Ah Yue began to clean up the dishes and chopsticks, and Chen Hao and Shi San sat in the courtyard and chatted.

"Teacher Chen, will your Heavenly Realm come again to recover the Tongtian Array?" This was Shi San's most concerned question.

I just met Chen Hao before, and he didn't know the truth of Chen Hao's identity, so it was inconvenient to ask this topic.

If the Heavenly Array can be opened again, Ah Yue will have the opportunity to go to the Heavenly Dao Alliance to open the spirit. On the one hand, it is possible to become an "immortal" in the heavenly realm, but on the other hand, it is necessary to wait for a while, so as not to open the spirit in the White Horse Cave and lose the qualification to become an "immortal" forever.

But if you can't be sure, the sooner you want to open the spirit in the White Horse Cave, the better. It's like investing, on the premise that there are funds to invest, the earlier you invest, the sooner you can benefit.

"I think so. Chen Hao said.

If the Cao family in Plains City harvested the Chongyang Fruit, then within a short period of time, the White Pony Cave would not collapse. In this case, Tai Haotian will always find a way to recover this secret realm.

"How long will that take? You know what?" Shi San asked with some eagerness.

"I can't say for sure, it could be soon, or it could take a long time. Is this important to you?"

Chen Hao was a little puzzled, this Shi San was just a low-level medicine household, why did he care so much about this kind of secret realm event.

"Seeing that Ah Yue is also getting older, if it is possible to go to the Heavenly Realm, we can delay him a little longer. But if you have to wait a long time, then you should give Ah Yue the spirit earlier, so I especially want to know a clear answer. Shi San sighed and said.

They actually already knew the names "Taihao Tian" and "Heavenly Dao Alliance", but this was still very abstract to them, so they were still used to calling it "Heavenly Realm".

"Uncle Shi, I really don't know how long I'll have to wait. Chen Hao was also helpless: "I can't get in touch with that side." ”

"Then what the hell should I do?" Shi San became distressed.

This is indeed a dilemma!

If you keep waiting, and in the end you still don't wait for the opening of the Heavenly Array, then the waiting time will be wasted.

But if the spirit is opened, and the Heavenly Array is opened again in a short time, then he will forever lose the qualification to cultivate in the Heavenly Realm.

Chen Hao couldn't help either, because he himself couldn't figure out how the Heavenly Dao Alliance would deal with this matter, and it was impossible for others to come up with ideas.

"Third uncle, didn't I say it, I'm going to wait!" Ah Yue said after cleaning up the kitchen, wiping his hands.

"Nonsense, you don't understand this. Shi San glared at Ah Yue and said.

"I see, it's not just about treating you first. I had only a little bit of a plan for this, and I didn't take it seriously. But after meeting Brother Hao, I decided that even if I waited until I died of old age, I would not open my soul in Baiju Cave! I didn't want to live in this place for the rest of my life. ”

Ah Yue is very serious.

Chen Hao suddenly understood Han Sui's complicated attitude towards him. I also felt that Han Sui didn't just want to be a soil emperor as he thought, so he didn't want to return to the Heavenly Dao Alliance.

Since his grandfather, several generations of his family have probably spent their lives in this tormented mood, right?

On the one hand, I was looking forward to being able to return to the Heavenly Dao Alliance to start cultivating, but on the other hand, I didn't know if I could wait for it. grew up day by day, and finally opened his soul in the White Horse Cave with a desperate heart. When you get old, you realize that you haven't done anything wrong.

But this torment has to be passed on to the next generation.

By Han Sui's approach, this hope may slowly fade. But it's also because he himself forcibly cooled his hopes.

In this way, if the teleportation array is opened again, you won't regret it too much because you have already practiced in the White Horse Cave and you will never be able to go back.

But for the sake of future generations, he hopes to be able to open up the teleportation array.

In this contradictory mood, Chen Hao was "coldly treated" by him like this.

Chen Hao decided that if he had the opportunity, he would find out if Han Sui's children had enlightenment. If not, it proves that he still has a chance to cooperate!
