Chapter 118: The Day of the God of Food

"Oh, Tianxiang Inn, the inn is not bad, but it is much worse than our palace, Miss Xiao, you should come to our palace, so that I can also help you find you." Mu Ang said.

What is this guy paying attention to?

"The little prince is polite, I think it's more convenient to stay in the guest house, although the Mu Wangfu is good, but there are many of us in our group, and it will cause you a lot of trouble if you go." I said with a smile.

"Don't bother, don't bother, now my eldest brother and second brother in the palace are very fond of me, even if you come to a hundred people, it won't be troublesome. Mu Ang said.

"Hehe, thank you in advance, by the way, what were you doing in Yingtian when I saw you at the auction last time?" I asked.

"Oh, last time, I accompanied my eldest brother to the capital to report on work, and I went for a few months, and I was tired of staying, so I went to the auction house to have fun, but fortunately I met Miss Xiao there, or I would have gone to those months in vain. Mu Ang narrowed his eyes slightly and said with a smile, from this guy's expression and these conversations, I always felt that this guy wanted to have some purpose for me, but this Dali person's hospitality also explained why he was so enthusiastic.

Then I chatted with this guy about some other things, during which I learned about some things about the Gu family, the Gu family now has a good relationship with Mu Wangfu, when Mu Ying entered Dali, the Gu family shopkeepers collectively went out of the city to welcome the Ming army, and then when building Dali New Town, the Gu family was also responsible for the supply of marble for the entire Dali City, which made this Dali New City built in just a few years.

After Mu Ying's death, Mu Ying's eldest son Mu Chun took over as the prince, and the Gu family also helped Mu Chun carry out a series of military reforms throughout Yunnan. Now the Gu family not only controls the marble business of the entire Dali, but also controls the cloth and grain villages of the entire Yunnan, which can be described as a super consortium.

"Little prince, I want to get to know the current head of the Gu family. I said.

"This ???" Mu Ang frowned.

"Are you having trouble?"

"Oh, no?? Not??? , It's just that the day before yesterday, my second brother and the Gu family went out of the house, and they haven't been in Dali for the past few days. Mu Ang said.

"How long will Yao wait?" I asked.

"Three or two days, in this way, you have been at the Tianxiang Inn, right? When my second brother comes back, how about I come there to find you?" Mu Ang said.

"Yes. It's good. ”

Soon after, Wang Zhi and I separated from this Mu Ang. Mu Ang insisted on sending me back to the inn, but I refused.

On the way to the inn.

"Sister Xiao, I always feel that this little prince seems to like you very much today. Wang Zhi said to me.

"Flutter ???" I burst out laughing.

"You kid, don't talk nonsense about what you like or dislike. This little prince has only met me once before. Now it's just a matter of welcoming me. I said.

"Really. I think he just likes you anyway. Wang Zhi insisted.

"Okay, okay, whatever he does, as long as he can help us. Don't go back and tell them about today's matter, I don't want them to know that we are using Mu Wangfu to do things, in this case, Sister Li, she will be careful. I said.

"Yes, I see. Wang Zhi replied.

Before returning to the inn and entering the gate, I saw a lot of flower baskets piled up at the door of the Tianxiang Inn, and many people were busy carrying these pots and pans inside.

"Little Er, what are you doing here?" I asked curiously as Xiao Er, who was standing not far away directing the porters.

"Oh, guest officer, you're a foreigner. Xiao Er said.

"Yes. ”

"That's right, tomorrow is our annual Chongli Festival in Dali. Xiao Er replied.

"What kind of festival is this?" I asked, puzzled.

"Oh, it is usually what we call the God of Food Festival, this Chongli is also called Zhu Rong, is the legendary God of Fire, it is said that in ancient times, the God of Fire and the Gonggong fought against the Zhou Mountain, and later led to the collapse of the earth, Zhu Rong chased and killed the Gonggong all the way to this, when he was hungry, he used the fire to roast and eat a rabbit on the first peak of Cangshan Mountain, and after eating enough, the Zhurong Fire God finally killed the Gonggong, and then the Dali people specially held this Chongli Festival on November 21 every year in order to commemorate the Fire God, and then the famous chefs of the whole city gathered together to compete. Xiao Er said.

"You innkeepers are going to participate too, right? I asked.

"Of course, this year's Chongli Festival is held in our inn, when the capital of the horse manager will also come to the scene to comment, this horse manager is a generation of food gods of our inn, just came to our inn within a few months to implement a lot of delicious and delicious dishes, so that our Tianxiang inn is really famous all over the world, guest officer, you don't want to go, tomorrow morning in the big courtyard behind our inn will be held competition, then the girl you have to go early, late but there is no place, tomorrow to the scene there is also the little prince of the Dali Mu Palace, the Gu family will also send someone to be the judge。 Xiao Er said.

The little prince???Could it be that Mu Ang, the Gu family???This god of food is trying to make the Gu family come to join in the fun.

"Isn't this Gu family not involved in this restaurant and food?" I asked.

"Oh, this Gu family is the leading big family in Dali, I haven't eaten anything from the mountains and seas, so we can accept the people of the Gu family to judge. Xiao Er replied.

I see??? This food is my favorite thing, not to mention that this is a food festival more than 600 years ago, I will definitely go early tomorrow to occupy a good position, and it is also quite good to taste this ancient food.

Then he entered the inn, and Li Meinu, Liu Yifan and others were there.

"Miss Xiao. Lao Yuan, Jiang Biao shouted at me excitedly when he saw me.

"Oh, Brother Jiang, you went out early in the morning, what's the news?" I asked.

"My mother is still there, just in the bamboo gate of Dali. Jiang Biao said in a panic.

"It's good to be here, but there doesn't seem to be a bamboo gate in this Dali city. I said.

"Kongzhumen is located in the eleventh peak of Diancang Mountain, which is also the highest peak in the entire Diancang Mountain. It is about fifty miles away from Dali City, and the disciples of Kongzhumen have never had much freedom, unless they give you a task, they will not let you leave the sect easily, so it is difficult to see this Kongzhumen disciple in Dali City. Jiang Biao said.

"Oh, then how do you know about your mother. I asked.

"This??? Don't worry about it for now, anyway, I have a way to know, my mother is indeed still in the Kongzhu Gate. Lord Xiao Helm, Master Li, I implore you to help as soon as possible. Rescue my mother soon. Jiang Biao is kowtowing to everyone here. Jiang Biao said with a pleading look.

After speaking, Jiang Biao's legs were weak and he was about to kneel on the ground.

"Don't do that. I grabbed Jiang Biao and didn't let him kneel.

The room was quiet at this point.

Obviously, Jiang Biao learned the news that his mother was safe and hoped that we would come to the rescue, but now the people in the house are probably not willing to put this matter in the first place, after all, this Kongzhumen is a century-old door. More than 100 years of precipitation and accumulation are not something that these few people in our room can shake now.

A moment later.

"Lord Xiao Helm??? I know my request is a little urgent. But you promised me to help me save my mother. Kongzhumen already knows the news of my rebellion, and my mother can be killed by them at any time. Speaking of this, Jiang Biao was already welling up with tears in his eyes.

"Brother Jiang. Don't do that, I promised to save you, and my mother will definitely help you. I spoke.

"Thank you, Lord Xiao??? Thank you very much????" Jiang Biao shouted happily.

"But ????"

"But what ???" Jiang Biao asked.

"You also know that the strength of Kongzhumen will undoubtedly only send us to death if we go now, and now Sister Li's treatment has some eyebrows, but it will take two days for new progress to be made, and we will go to Kongzhumen after Sister Li's matter is resolved, and we will definitely save your mother at that time." I said.

"How long will it take?" Jiang Biao asked anxiously.

"Seven days, no matter what happens to Sister Li after seven days, how about we all go to Kongzhumen?" I said.

"Seven days??? I'm just afraid???? Alas????? Well, just wait seven days. Jiang Biao frowned and said with some difficulty.

"Well, Brother Jiang is still bothering you to continue to look at Kongzhumen these days, you will have a way to watch, if there is any movement, tell us. I said.

"This is natural. Jiang Biao replied.

"Well, that's good, Hong Yuan, you go out for a walk with Brother Jiang, we have other things to say. I said.

"Okay, Lord Xiao Helm. Hong Yuan responded and took Jiang Biao out of the room.

Wait a moment after the two of them go out.

"Sister Li, Brother Liu, I have heard that the head of the Gu family is not in Dali now, and it is estimated that he will return to Dali in two to three days, and I will try my best to visit the Gu family at that time, and it should not be difficult. By the way, Brother Liu, why did you go out early this morning?" I asked.

"I??hehe, I went to hang out with Hong Yuan. Liu Yifan said lightly, seeing that he didn't plan to tell the truth, he didn't want to continue to ask.

"Okay, there's nothing else to do in the past two days, I think I'll rest for two days first, Sister Li, what do you say?" I said to Li Meinu.

"My sister said that she just came to Dali and wanted to go shopping. Li Meinu said with a slight smile.

Li Meinu should not be thinking about the scenery of Dali at the moment, there are too many things on her back, and many times the burden of setting too much will make a person forget many things, maybe when Li Meinu visits the most beautiful place in Dali tomorrow, she will not feel it.

I didn't tell Li Meinu about the Chongli Festival held at the inn the next day, after all, at this time, I'm afraid these people will say that I am playful, although I won't say it on the surface, I will be unhappy in my heart.

Then I separated from Li Meinu and returned to my room.

Let's practice this Dharma palm again, and improving your strength is the most important thing.

Aoki's Mind Method: Pulling Clouds into the Wind?????

Two huge internal forces instantly surged from the dantian to the two gates of Duyi, and then these two internal forces gradually merged and sat at the place of the two gates?????

Although the whole cultivation is completed and fatigued, there are also a lot of gains, according to this progress, I am afraid that it will be less than a week to completely integrate the internal force and then enter the next step of cultivation, I originally thought it would take a month, it seems that this progress is quite fast, so much faster than I expected before.

After yawning a few times, I suddenly remembered the Chongli Festival held in the courtyard behind this inn?? Finished??? I didn't get up so late, and I'm afraid I won't have a good spot to go to the backyard at this time???

Don't worry about it for now, rush in and talk about it.

As soon as I got downstairs, I saw that the hall of the inn was already full of people, and these people were rushing towards the backyard.

"Stop it for me, take the ticket in your hand, get out of the people who don't have a ticket, there are too many people in my mother's house." There was a shouting and scolding from the crowd, and it was a familiar sound. (To be continued......)
