Chapter 609 Steward Mo and Li Kun
Baiyu City is a city dominated by mortals. In the early morning, all kinds of breakfast shops and breakfast stalls have opened on the streets. The streets are full of steam and the atmosphere is full of fireworks.
"Fried dough sticks, soy milk, steamed dumplings, spicy soup with tofu brain, rice noodle rolls, fried noodles and lean meat porridge, everything is available. What do you want to eat?" Yuanxiao is very familiar with these street snacks and took the initiative to introduce them.
"Can you recommend?" Xiaoqi felt that they were all fresh and wanted to eat them, but it was impossible to eat so much at once.
"Then let's have steamed dumplings with salty and fragrant tofu brain, and try something else next time." Yuanxiao said.
Xiaoqi nodded immediately, and the meal was indeed very comfortable. A basket of lotus leaf steamed dumplings was eaten clean, especially the salty and fragrant tofu brain. Xiaoqi even ate two bowls in a row and exclaimed that it was addictive.
Not to mention Yuanxiao, he ate four bowls directly. This thing was slippery and went into his stomach unknowingly.
"Yuanxiao, although your cultivation is not very good, you are really good at eating! I admire you!" Xiao Qi rubbed her belly and said as she walked.
Yuanxiao was a little speechless. This was the first time someone said to her face that her cultivation was not very good!
In Xiao Qi's eyes, a teenager in the Nascent Soul stage was not very good. It can be seen that Xiao Qi was comparing Yuanxiao with herself. If you compare with other people, it would be difficult to draw this conclusion. How many people can be like Xiao Qi, who is in the Spiritualization stage in his teens? It is too conservative to say that it is rare.
To come up with such a person and achievements, not only must there be strong and precious resources for cultivation, but also the guidance of famous teachers. In addition, talent and opportunity are also needed, neither of which can be missing.
"Fresh ingredients are very important. Many snacks are made by stall owners who stay up late at night and start selling them at dawn, so they are fresh and delicious. They deserve to earn some hard-earned money. If you want to eat something fresher, we will find a stream later and play in the water first. We will catch fish and grill them at noon, which will be more delicious." Yuanxiao said.
"Let's go, what are we waiting for?" Xiao Qi responded immediately.
The two walked out of the city gate, called out Xiao Huang, and began to fly to the mountains and wild ridges. In less than half an hour, they found a stream between the two mountains. The stream water was clear and there were many fish swimming. There were also many pebbles in it, which was a good place to play in the water and catch fish.
It was the end of summer, the temperature was high, but the stream water was cold and clear, which was a good time to play in the water.
Xiao Qi couldn't stand the temptation of the stream immediately, took off his shoes, rolled up his trouser legs and walked into the stream, stepped on the pebbles and walked back and forth, and deliberately stepped hard on the water to splash water, and didn't care if his clothes got wet.
Yuanxiao had no choice but to release Xiaojin and Xiaohuang to play in the water with Xiaoqi, while he took out a hammer, walked on the pebbles to a big stone, and knocked the stone three times with the hammer.
Xiaoqi had never caught a fish before, and was very curious, so he asked, "Yuanxiao, what are you doing?"
Yuanxiao stretched out his hand to move the stone he had just knocked, and two fish suddenly floated out of the water. It turned out that this way of fishing is called shocking fish. If there are fish hidden under the big stone, they will be stunned for a short time, just enough to catch them directly.
Xiaoqi was very curious, took the hammer, and wanted to try it. He found two other stones and knocked them down separately, and he really caught two fish.
Xiaoqi picked up the stunned fish with both hands and praised, "Yuanxiao, you know so many interesting things! I wish I had met you earlier, it's so fun."
Yuanxiao dug another pit by the stream and put a few fish in it. After a while, the fish slowly woke up and began to swim in the pit again.
Xiao Qi stopped when she caught the tenth fish, because Yuan Xiao said that it was enough to eat, and it would be a waste to catch more.
Yuan Xiao found that there was fresh mud in a small hole on the shore, guessing that it was a crayfish's nest. She reached out and pulled out a crayfish.
Although Xiao Qi had eaten lobsters, she didn't know that wild lobsters were hidden in mud holes by the water, so she reached in and dug it out. As a result, she cried out and quickly retracted her hand, and a crayfish was brought out on her middle finger.
It turned out that this crayfish opened its two large claws on the left and right, and clamped Xiao Qi's middle finger at the same time, holding it tightly and not letting go, so it was brought out.
Xiao Qi was really a bold and unsqueamish person. After seeing this crayfish, she actually laughed, then forcibly broke the claws from her hand and threw it into the puddle, shouting that she also wanted to eat grilled lobsters at noon. She was really a crazy girl who didn't care about her life when playing. Then she dug more than ten holes in a row and caught more than a dozen crayfish before stopping.
Near noon, Yuanxiao cleaned the fish and shrimps, chose a large bluestone, took out the barbecue utensils and charcoal, and then took out a lot of bottles and cans, various seasonings, and began to show his barbecue skills.
As soon as the fragrance came out, Xiaoqi jumped from the stream to the large bluestone, waiting for the meal. Yuanxiao brushed the stream fish and crayfish with seasonings and handed the bamboo sticks to Xiaoqi.
Xiaoqi held the stream fish in his left hand and the crayfish in his right hand. After tasting each, he praised it and said it was better than the one in the big restaurant! Of course it was delicious. These fish and shrimps were still swimming in the water before the incense stick. How fresh the ingredients were!
Until the evening, Xiaoqi was still reluctant to leave. Yuanxiao set up two tents on another large bluestone next to it and camped here. The gurgling stream and the constant chirping of insects set off the silence of the valley at night.
It was not until late at night on the last day that the two set off and rushed to Weiyu Mountain.
At dawn, the two men rode on their Huang horses near Weiyu Mountain and discovered a sect on the outskirts, which must be the Wan Yao Sect.
After arriving at Weiyu Mountain, I only took a turn and saw a small square in the valley. There were already many people walking around. Obviously, this square was a competition venue that existed in the early years, and it was just reused today.
Yuanxiao and Xiaoqi were the first team to arrive. They easily signed up at the competition platform and waited for the competition to start. Xiaoqi came purely to join in the fun, with no other purpose.
Yuanxiao carefully looked at the surrounding valleys and found nothing unusual. He secretly released Xiaojin to check if there were any hidden caves, but he didn't find any for a while. Could it be that the Duanxianting stronghold was not nearby, but farther away?
After another half an hour, the square began to get lively. At a glance, there were dozens of participating teams.
Xiaoqi and Yuanxiao were chatting happily on the sidelines, when suddenly a middle-aged man who looked like a butler came over with a young man in his twenties.
"Little Princess, you scared me to death. I didn't find you until today! Fortunately, I guessed that you like to be lively, so I came to the martial arts venue in advance to wait for you, otherwise I would miss you again today. Let's go back now. We have been out for a long time this time!" said the middle-aged housekeeper.
"Housekeeper Mo, Uncle Mo, I will play for a few more days. I will go back naturally when I have enough fun. Don't follow me every day. When I have enough fun, I will take the initiative to crush the jade slip to contact you." Xiao Qi said.
"If we go back late, the prince will not forgive me! Little Princess, please forgive me." Housekeeper Mo began to complain.
"Xiao Qi, who is this?" The young man in his twenties next to him pointed at Yuan Xiao and asked Xiao Qi.
