Chapter 205: Strange Food
After complimenting each other for a long time, the two of them finally felt comfortable and looked at each other with pleasing eyes, and then they gradually stopped.
Hugging Li Chuyi, Hao Hongwei looked at Li Sinian next to him, his face full of teasing.
"Although your surname is also Li, I believe that you have absolutely no blood relationship with this old immortal. How could you, a smart and talented kid like you, be related to this stupid old immortal! Look at him. When I met him, we were both in the pill formation stage. After so many years, I have begun to prepare for the late stage of god refining. This guy is still standing still in the early stage of god refining. Do you think he is stupid? "
"He's not stupid!"
Li Chuyi shook his head, and Hao Hongwei was stunned, but then heard him continue: "Stupid is no longer enough to describe him. Look at me, I am practicing god at such a young age, and this uncle is still the same as me at his age. This is stupid I feel like there are no words to describe him!”
"Hey, that's enough for you two!" Li Sinian's face turned black with anger.
These two shameless people are just saying it, why are they involving him! Compared to them, he did seem stupid in the early stage of god training, but compared to other monks of the same generation, he has reached such a state after practicing Taoism for more than a hundred years, and he is still a casual cultivator who relies entirely on himself. Even if he is not a genius, At least he is extremely talented.
When the fat man next to him heard what Li Chuyi said, his face froze in amusement, and his brows twitched in embarrassment.
Compared to Li Sinian, he is more capable of teasing freely. But compared to Li Chuyi, especially considering Li Chuyi's age, he has no pride at all.
This little fat guy didn't know what to eat when he grew up. He was already in the early stage of God Refining at a young age. Judging from the fluctuations in his aura, Hao Hongwei had no doubt that he might reach the middle stage of God Refining in just a few years, matching his own cultivation level. quite.
Thinking about this speed of cultivation, even though he was born into a big family, he felt terrified. He felt that this cute little fat kid was like a wild beast and not a human being at all.
After coughing awkwardly a few times, he changed the topic: "Let's not talk about this anymore. Let's go eat! I met such an interesting little brother today, so I have to have a few drinks!"
After saying that, Li Chuyi strode upstairs, half-carried and half-carried, taking two or three steps at a time as normal as an ordinary person. Li Sinian next to him hurriedly followed. The three of them walked together. From a distance, they looked like a rich man traveling with his children, followed by a minion trotting behind him.
Not long after, the three of them came to the center of Siquji. They were familiar with the place and picked a three-story restaurant. The fat man took the lead and walked in without looking. As he walked, he shouted loudly: "The shopkeeper Yes, the old position! No matter who is there, please clear it out for me. I will prepare the dinner today!"
The shopkeeper of the restaurant saw Hao Hongwei before he entered the door. Hearing what he said, he hurriedly followed Hao Hongwei without even using the waiter, and got in front of him to lead the way, making excuses as he walked.
"Oh, Fourth Master, look what you said. I have kept your old place with you, and no one dares to move it. Man, man, go and clean it quickly, Fourth Master is here!"
The shopkeeper looked like a philistine, but his cultivation was really not weak. His aura was faintly fluctuating. Li Chuyi knew that he was at least in the early stage of pill formation. And those guys were as light as a swallow when running up and down, and all of them were masters in the foundation building stage. It was the first time for Li Chuyi to see a restaurant run by a group of monks, and he felt immediately eye-opening.
Hearing what the shopkeeper said, Hao Hongwei didn't feel proud. Instead, he looked dissatisfied. He reached out and "gently" patted the shopkeeper on the shoulder, which made him stagger.
"Shopkeeper Wang, this is your fault. How many times have I told you that when I don't use that room, you don't have to keep it for me. It's time to receive guests. We are all businessmen. I'm just a little bit thin. But there’s no need to be so pretentious.”
The shopkeeper was photographed with a wry smile on his face. Hearing what Hao Hongwei said, he immediately showed some sincerity.
"Hey, Fourth Master is still considerate of us. But business is business, and loyalty is loyalty. Although I, Wang Lang, am a restaurant owner, I am also a spiritual practitioner and a moral person. Fourth Master treats me very well. I can't help you if I am too much. Your Majesty, luckily the food in our restaurant is to your liking. I can still do such a small thing as leaving you a room, so please don’t say any more, Fourth Master."
"You, you, alas!"
Hao Hongwei sighed helplessly, and finally patted the shopkeeper silently a few more times. Li Chuyi was worried that the shopkeeper would just be beaten to death. But the shopkeeper was different. His face was full of honor when he was photographed by Hao Hongwei, and he respectfully led the way.
Li Chuyi could tell that Hao Hongwei was definitely not an ordinary person in this collection of songs. With force and financial resources alone, he would never be able to gain the sincere respect of so many comrades. He is obviously a generous and generous person just like what he appears to be.
After being led to the room, the shopkeeper withdrew. After a short while, delicious dishes, both meat and vegetable, came in. In a short while, a table was filled with enough noodles for twenty or thirty people.
Looking at the delicious food mentioned, Li Chuyi's mouth watered. He looked so hopeless that Li Sinian rubbed his forehead, while Hao Hongwei was stunned for a moment, then burst out laughing.
"You're welcome, come and eat! In the entire Siquji, Xianwaixian's is the most delicious. I'm the host today, little fat man, you can open your mouth and eat!"
Eyes fixed on the food, Li Chu said without looking back: "Then I'm not welcome?"
"Why are you being polite? Eat! Come, try this deer shadow in the cloud!" Hao Hongwei laughed, stretched out his hand to pick up a piece of meat and put it in front of Li Chuyi.
This piece of meat is not ordinary at all. Although it is unknown what raw materials it is made of, it is definitely a demon beast. After being carefully prepared by the cultivator, it is not only fragrant, but also surrounded by waves of fairy mist. The shadow of a private four-hoofed spirit beast passed by during the tumbling, which is very similar to a stag stepping on the clouds. No wonder it has the beautiful name of "deer shadow in the cloud".
He couldn't wait to put it in his mouth. The piece of meat melted in his mouth, and the indescribable beauty spread in his mouth. It was not laborious at all. The whole meat seemed to turn into gas and flowed down his throat. As the food entered his stomach, Li Chu felt warm inside all the time, and a stream of spiritual energy spread out, which actually made his magic power more active.
"Can this thing help people practice?!" Li Chuyi was shocked, his face full of disbelief.
He had eaten a lot of delicious food, even the thousand-year-old demon beasts he had eaten with the Taoist priests. But those delicacies were eaten and tasted delicious at most, unlike now, which is not only delicious but also beneficial to one's cultivation.
Hao Hongwei laughed and patted Li Chuyi on the shoulder and said, "Yes, but the effect is very small. The worst raw materials of this dish are also demon beasts with foundation cultivation, and the spiritual herbs are nearly a hundred years old. It's just that there is no alchemist's refining. When it is made into a dish, the spirituality inside cannot be fully exerted. It is just a simple delicacy. Naturally, it is not as good as elixir and spiritual stone for the growth of cultivation."
"But, I have eaten a lot of demon cultivators and spiritual herbs before, and I have eaten demon beasts with hundreds of years of cultivation, but I never felt that it helped my cultivation. Is there something special about this cooking method, and ordinary methods cannot produce such miraculous effects?" Li Chuyi was puzzled.
He had eaten monsters and spiritual herbs before, but never had such miraculous effects. He was very interested in this thing that could increase his cultivation.
Once upon a time, a useless person wanted to become invincible by taking drugs, but his dream was shattered. In addition, he was "unlucky and had no chance" in the way of alchemy, which was a lifelong regret in his heart. This time, he saw that even delicious food could help people increase their cultivation like elixirs. Even if it was a small amount, with his appetite, it would definitely not be much worse than the effect of elixirs.
Although he was anxious, he was cautious and did not dare to say that the monsters had cultivated for thousands of years, but only said that the monsters had cultivated for hundreds of years. No matter how stupid he was, he knew that the monsters that had cultivated for more than a thousand years, the weakest of which had a cultivation level above the human race's Dao fetus stage, were not something that ordinary people could enjoy. Therefore, he only looked at half of it and said it was hundreds of years.
He thought he had hidden it well, but he didn't know that someone still saw through it. Li Sinian already knew about Li Chuyi's abnormal family background, so he didn't react. When Hao Hongwei heard what Li Chuyi said, a gleam flashed in his small eyes, but then it disappeared. He didn't say much as if he didn't know, but explained to the little fat man with a smile.
"Little Chuyi, you don't know that if spiritual herbs and spiritual beasts are eaten directly without being refined, cultivators below the Jindan stage can't absorb the spiritual essence in them at all, and most of them will dissipate. Only after the Shenlian stage, the law can be integrated with the soul, so that the spiritual essence can be directly absorbed from these spiritual objects for their own use. The higher the cultivation level, the more you absorb. Therefore, no matter how much you ate before, it was in vain. Most of the essence of those spiritual objects was lost."
"Oh, oh!" Li Chuyi was stunned, and it turned out that he was an "idiot" before!
Looking at the little fat man, the big fat man smiled and continued, "In addition, cooking spiritual objects does require some techniques. In fact, it is just a simple refining, which is somewhat similar to refining elixirs, but not as complicated and rigorous. You will understand the specifics if you have the opportunity to cook it yourself a few times."
Gulp~
Li Chuyi swallowed hard.
He didn't just know how to refine elixirs, he knew it too well! Not to mention what Baijie Taoist gave him, but he had a lot of books and classics about alchemy looted from the cave in his storage bag, and there were even more in the jade slips left by Dan Yangzi. At this time, hearing that cooking spiritual ingredients also requires similar techniques, Li Chuyi had an urge to go out and kill a demon wolf to experiment immediately.
Thinking about his success, he relied on eating all the way to the Ascension Stage, Li Chuyi couldn't help but get excited and felt the urge to urinate.
This is so cool!
