Chapter 543: Chronic Disease

After Gu Zheng cooked delicious food for Lian Yuxin in the cave, the two of them left the cave, met with the people from the Elder's House again, and flew towards the direction of Wufeng Island.

After returning to Wufeng Island, Gu Zheng picked some managers from Tianxin Sect, then put some clothes and other things in his storage belt, and went to Bitao Island again.

The islanders on Bitao Island are already the subjects of Guzheng, and their education cannot be ignored, and these matters are left to the management members of the Tianxin Sect.

I didn't stay much on Bitao Island. I returned to the ancient disputes on Wufeng Island and started to work on immigrating the current residents of Wufeng Island.

Of the seven thousand islanders, Gu Zheng decided to immigrate four thousand to Ziyan Island. In the next few days, he was busy with this matter.

"Young Master, Master Yuankong of Prajna Temple is here!"

While Gu Zheng and Yang Zhenling were discussing immigration matters, the disciples in front of the temple reported to Gu Zheng.

A flash of surprise flashed across Gu Zheng's eyes, and he said: "I have been busy during this period, and the one-month deadline has arrived. It seems that Yuankong is here to send resources."

"It should be, it's quite on time, it's exactly one month until today." Yang Zhenling said.

"Let Yuan Kong come over!" Gu Zheng said.

"Young Master, I heard from the disciples guarding the Immortal Formation that Master Yuankong did not come alone. There was an old monk with him. The old monk looked very extraordinary at first glance. Yuankong also treated him. I'm very respectful. Do you want this old monk to come with you?" asked the disciple in front of the hall.

"An old monk that Yuankong can respect?"

Gu Zheng frowned and thought of someone: "I'll go there myself!"

Master Yuankong is one of the three masters of Buddhism. The people with higher cultivation level than him are Master Xiaojue from Guanyin Yuan and the other is his great uncle Xinjing Saint Monk.

Gu Zheng felt that the old monk who came with Master Yuankong should be the holy monk of Jingxin.

The Holy Monk of Jing Jing has a very good reputation. He can be regarded as an eminent monk, and his cultivation level is also very high. He has reached the peak of returning to the void many years ago, and is in the same realm as Ouyang Hai and Wei Fengxing.

Gu Zheng had never seen the holy monk Jing Jing, but he heard from Ouyang Hai and others that the old monk's appearance was indeed like the reincarnation of the Buddha. He had a pair of ears with very long earlobes, and he was also very handsome.

Gu Zheng's guess was not wrong. The person who came with Master Yuankong was none other than the holy monk Xin Jing of Prajna Temple.

"I didn't expect that the Holy Monk from Prajna Temple would come in person. This really makes my Kirifeng Island shine!"

Welcoming Gu Zheng who came out of the immortal formation to protect the island, he smiled and cupped his fists at the holy monk Xin Jing.

"Amitabha! I didn't expect that the donor would come out to greet me in person!" Holy Monk Xinjing returned the gift, and then said: "Holy Monk, I really don't deserve this title. The donor should call me Monk Xinjing!"

"Forget it, let's call you Master Xinjing!" Gu Zheng shook his head, smiled, and asked: "Master Xinjing came to my Wufeng Island with Master Yuankong this time. He should give me the eighty special items. Resources?"

"Sending resources is only one of the reasons. Another reason is that I want to visit Wufeng Island." Master Xinjing said.

"I wonder what Master Xinjing wants to see on Wufeng Island? Is it because of what happened to Monk Wuwei?" Gu Zheng asked.

The reason why Gu Zheng came in person, apart from Master Xinjing's reputation and seniority, was also because he didn't want Master Xinjing to visit Wufeng Island! I don't want him to have any guesses and ideas when he sees the temple. After all, Buddhism attaches great importance to the collection of the power of faith.

"No matter what the truth is, Wuwei's matter has been settled."

Master Xinjing's voice paused, and a kind smile appeared on his fat face: "I really don't have any ill intentions when I come here this time. Donors don't need to be so careful. I don't know whether I call you the young master of the Tianxin Sect? Or I call you Wu. Where is the owner of Fengdao Island? Or the leader of the Emei Sect?”

The last time Yuankong came here, he didn't know Gu Zheng's identity. He thought Gu Zheng came from the ancient times.

This time Master Xinjing came over and Gu Zheng's identity was revealed, but he was not surprised. After all, although he had never met Master Xinjing before, he still recognized him.

"Just call me Master Gu!"

Gu Zheng smiled slightly, and then said: "Although Master Xinjing said that there is no harm, I also believe that as Master Xinjing, he will definitely do what he says, but at least you want to let me know, what exactly do you want to go to Wufeng Island? What is it for?"

Gu Zheng did not become very talkative just because of his status as Master Xinjing and his kind words. After all, it is only human nature to know what they are here for.

"Okay! Since the ancient leader asked like this, I will tell the truth. First of all, I am very curious about the ancient leader and want to make friends with him. Secondly, I am also interested in the ancient leader's temple on the island. Very curious." Master Xinjing said.

Gu Zheng nodded and made an invitation gesture: "You two, follow me to the island!"

Now is an extraordinary period, and Buddhism is the righteous sect with the largest number of people. They have to help fight against the devil. If they had not thought about this, no matter how sincere Master Xinjing said, Gu Zheng would not have invited him to the island.

In the main hall of Tianxin Sect, Master Xinjing and Master Yuankong took their seats.

A disciple of the Tianxin Sect has already served the tea, and Gu Zheng said: "You two might as well try it. This is the Yunwu Tea, a specialty of our Wufeng Island. It tastes very good."

“Good tea.”

Master Xinjing and Master Yuankong both praised it after tasting it.

"Master Gu, here are eighty special resources. Click to collect them."

Master Xin Jing took out a box from his storage belt and opened the lid.

Gu Zheng glanced at it and saw that the items inside were indeed special resources, so he accepted them unceremoniously. Anyway, this was what he deserved.

"Everyone has his secret. Master Xinjing is curious about me. I can understand this, but if your question is too extreme, then I have no comment."

Gu Zheng's voice sounded very calm, but Yang Zhenling and the elder who were accompanying him in the hall were all nervous.

Master Xinjing is an existence at the pinnacle of returning to the void, one of the so-called three top masters in the world of cultivation. Such a person was originally an existence that they could never even meet! But now, he was sitting in the main hall of his home, facing their young master, with a smile on his face.

"Don't worry, Master Gu. This is natural."

Master Xinjing didn't think there was anything wrong with Gu Zheng speaking to him in such a tone. After all, Gu Zheng's ability to defeat Yuan Kong was a sign of strength. He belonged to the same sect as Ouyang Hai, which was a sign of power.

Regardless of strength or power, Gu Zheng has reached a certain height. Master Xinjing thinks it is very normal for a person standing at this height to say such things. If Gu Zheng were as humble as a younger generation, If you are calm, you will feel abnormal.

"Now that Master Gu has got straight to the point, I won't say any more useless words. I don't have to ask anything about Master Gu that I'm curious about, but there is one thing I really want to know! Master Gu, you Are you a fairy chef?" Master Xinjing asked.

"Oh? Why did Master Xinjing say that?" Gu Zheng smiled.

Regarding the identity of the Immortal Chef, Gu Zheng once told Xuan Qizi and Master Yufeng not to tell anyone. He also believed that Master Xinjing would ask this question, not because of what Xuan Qizi and Master Yufeng told him. He was just a little curious as to how Master Xinjing guessed his identity!

"Because Master Gu has won the gourmet food competition, and because Master Gu has such incredible cultivation at such a young age. Apart from Master Gu himself being an immortal chef, I really can't think of any other way to make you His cultivation has progressed so quickly!”

Master Xinjing was a little excited. During Operation Demon Slayer, when he learned that Ouyang Hai had joined the Emei Sect, he immediately became very interested in this originally lonely sect.

As one of the three masters, Master Xinjing also knows Ouyang Hai very well. He believes that there must be something in Emei that can attract Ouyang Hai, so that a casual cultivator like Ouyang Hai joins Emei and becomes the supreme elder. . The changes in Emei started completely after Gu Zheng, a young man, joined Emei and became the leader.

Originally, Master Xinjing was hesitant to connect Gu Zheng with the profession of Immortal Chef, but after Master Yuankong in the late stage of returning to the void lost to Gu Zheng, Master Xinjing was 99% sure that Gu Zheng It is an extremely rare immortal chef.

"Does this alone make Master Xinjing suspect that I am an immortal chef?" Gu Zheng asked with a smile.

"Actually, there are many places to doubt, but the most important reason is that others may not know much about Xianchu, but I had a close friend of Xianchu back then, so I must know a lot more about Xianchu than the average person!"

Master Xinjing paused, and then looked at Gu Zheng with a somewhat eager look: "Master Gu, are you the Immortal Chef?"

In fact, Gu Zheng's attitude already explained the answer, but Master Xinjing still wanted to hear him say it himself.

"Yes, I am an immortal chef." Gu Zheng admitted generously.

In the past, when his cultivation level was still low, exposing the identity of the Immortal Chef might cause trouble, but things are different now, and he is no longer afraid of exposing the Immortal Chef's identity.

"Master Gu is really an immortal chef. This is great!"

Master Xinjing was so excited that he lost his composure, and even his voice trembled a little when he spoke.

"Master Gu, I have something to ask of you!" Master Xinjing said.

"Tell me first, what exactly is going on!" Gu Zheng said.

"Back then, in order to improve my cultivation, my best friend from the Immortal Chef helped me cook a meal. That food indeed improved my cultivation quickly, but it also left me with a stubborn disease. My A close friend of Xianchu felt very sorry for this, he told I said that this was a shortcoming caused by a problem with his cooking skills. If he wanted to solve this problem, he had to use food skills to solve it. Later, my best friend from the fairy chef disappeared and I This stubborn problem has persisted until now.”

Some immortal chefs also know some food cultivation methods, but they are completely incomparable with Tie Xian's. Not only are the effects poor, but there may also be hidden dangers. However, food can improve cultivation. This has been done since ancient times. Many immortal chefs are improving, but They just haven't improved as much as Tiexian.

Master Xinjing had a sad face. His expression did not look like that of a master at the peak of his recovery, but he was clearly a patient complaining to the doctor.

"The so-called past has been very long ago. You can cultivate to the peak of returning to the void even if you have a stubborn disease. What kind of stubborn disease is this?"

Gu Zheng frowned, he was a little interested in what Master Xinjing said.

"This stubborn disease does not affect your cultivation, but it will eat up your lifespan! With my current state, under normal circumstances, I still have more than two hundred years of lifespan, but now I only have two years of lifespan left! Master Xinjing smiled bitterly: "Master Gu, if you examine my body, it will be clearer than my explanation!"

Of course Gu Zheng also wanted to directly explore the body of Master Xinjing, but if his body was probed by one person, he could only think that his life was in the hands of the explorer!

Gu Zheng was afraid that this was an excessive request, so he did not put it forward. Now that Master Xinjing requested it, Gu Zheng immediately began to explore his body.

In the sea of ​​consciousness of Master Xinjing, there is a bright yellow bodhi seed with two tiny spots on it. Such spots do not mean that the energy cultivated by Master Xinjing is impure, but that he still has longevity left. How many.

Immortal cultivators will also have such spots on their immortal power balls! However, Gu Zheng was too young, his cultivation level was very high, and his lifespan was very sufficient, so the spots representing the remaining lifespan were not yet visible.

Master Xinjing was right when he said that he only had two years left to live, and judging from his skeletal age, this was indeed extremely abnormal.

After some investigation, Gu Zheng finally found the source of the stubborn problem.

Stubborn illnesses also appear in the form of spots in Master Xinjing’s stomach.

After Gu Zheng probed his spiritual thoughts into the spots, his brows gradually wrinkled.

After a moment, a sudden realization came to Gu Zheng's mind, and he ended his exploration of Master Xinjing's body.

"Master Gu, how is the situation of my uncle?"

Seeing Gu Zheng's spiritual thoughts leaving Master Xinjing's body, Master Yuankong, who had been silent until now, also spoke.

Master Xinjing has a high level of cultivation and a high status in the entire Buddhist sect. Regardless of whether he is public or private, Master Yuankong does not want anything to happen to him.

"The situation of your uncle is exactly as he said. He does still have two years to live. As for the stubborn disease, it exists in his stomach. It is really difficult to get rid of it using traditional methods!"

Gu Zheng's faint voice made Master Xinjing overjoyed, and his eyes became excited again.

Master Xinjing's close friend of the Immortal Chef once told him that if he wanted to cure this stubborn disease, he would have to find a more powerful Immortal Chef. Because of this, when Master Xinjing was sure that Gu Zheng was an Immortal Chef, he Will get excited to the point of losing control. After all, Gu Zheng was able to raise his cultivation level to the realm of returning to the virtual world in his twenties, so his strength in the art of cooking was undoubtedly stronger than that of his best friend from the Immortal Chef back then.

"Master Gu, what on earth is going on with me? Can I still be saved?" Master Xinjing asked.

"Didn't your best friend from the Immortal Chef tell you what was going on?" Gu Zheng asked.

"No, when I asked him back then, he hesitated and didn't explain it clearly to me." Master Xinjing said depressedly.

"Haha." Gu Zheng shook his head and smiled: "Let me tell you this! Your best friend made you eat a failed diet, which led to your current physical condition. And he also knows that this is a A failed food cultivation! And you actually improved your cultivation after eating such a food cultivation, and only left such a minor drawback, which is considered a blessing among misfortunes!"

"Ah? Why did Master Gu say that my best friend knew that this was a failed food cultivation job?" Master Xinjing's eyes widened.

"Because I am the Immortal Chef." Gu Zheng said calmly.

Master Xinjing’s failed food cultivation, Gu Zheng knows how it came about!

Some time ago, Gu Zheng had a strange phenomenon when he was about to complete the Danyuan Food Cultivator he was cooking in the cave on Bitao Island. With Gu Zheng's ability, he easily suppressed the vision and allowed Shi Xiu to successfully 'overcome the tribulation'. And the food cultivation that Master Xinjing ate was the product of the failed ‘transcending tribulation’!

However, after the failure of 'transcending the tribulation', it can still improve people's cultivation, but it will only speed up the passage of people's lifespan. I really don't know whether Master Xinjing is lucky or unlucky.

It is precisely because of the extraordinary nature of food cultivation that its negative power cannot be underestimated after its failure to 'overcome the tribulation'. Master Xinjing has such a stubborn disease that is so difficult to deal with now.

Master Xinjing shook his head and sighed, lamenting that his best friend was so dishonest that such a food cultivator dared to let him take it.

"Master Gu, since you can see the cause of the disease, is there any way I can be saved?" Master Xinjing asked with hopeful eyes.

"There are two ways to save you! The first way is slower, that is, I will tailor a delicious dish according to your situation to solve your stubborn problem. The second way is faster, that is, you can come up with , I will re-make the food that left you with a lingering illness using the ingredients used in the original cooking, so as to achieve an effect similar to 'original soup transformed into original food'." Gu Zheng said.

"Remember, I remember!" Master Xinjing said excitedly: "I provided all the ingredients for cooking food cultivation back then. I was very impressed by how this harmed my food cultivation. Even now, I can still clearly understand Tell me how many ingredients are used in that dish and how much of each one is used!"

"Very good, since you remember it so clearly, then as long as you bring me those ingredients, I can give you the 'original soup into original food' treatment." Gu Zheng said.

"Master Gu, how confident are you that you can cure me?" Master Xinjing looked at Gu Zheng eagerly.

"hundred percent!"

"Very good!"

After hearing Gu Zheng's absolutely positive answer, Xinjing and Yuankong both shouted excitedly.

"However, there is one thing I want to say first. Immortal chefs need some ingredients as compensation when they cook for others. This is also the rule of this industry. Let me treat you. While you provide the ingredients yourself, I will take 20% of the total value of the ingredients as compensation!" Gu Zheng said seriously.

"No problem! I will prepare the ingredients as soon as possible, and then come to Wufeng Island to ask Master Gu for help!" Master Xinjing said.

"Okay." Gu Zheng smiled and nodded.
