Chapter 31

Chen Yuan followed Mrs. Qingniang to the table, and waited for the maids to set the dishes, and Chen Yuan found out.

Madam Qing Niang prepared four tables of banquets, and most of the dishes on the table were cooked with some medicinal materials.

Chen Yuan didn't know anything else, but in several dishes, he recognized medicinal materials such as Polygonum multiflorum, Rhizoma Polygonatum, and Ginseng.

Seeing Chen Yuan observing the dishes, Mrs. Qingniang sat down with Chen Yuan and explained:

"There is not much deliciousness in the mountains, but the medicinal materials are more old. The dishes on this table are cooked with medicinal materials that are at least 300 years old and as many as [-] years old. It is beneficial for practitioners to eat more."

After speaking, Mrs. Qingniang said again:

"Since Daoist Priest's current cultivation level is close to the Pill Embryo Realm, although it has little effect, it is better than nothing. Daoist Priest, eat it quickly."

Seeing the other three tables around, the ghosts who were qualified to participate in the banquet waited for the dishes to be served, and they had already devoured them.

Chen Yuan was no longer polite, thanked Mrs. Qingniang, and then started to eat.

The dishes on the table are all cooked with medicinal materials. Although Mrs. Qingniang ordered the cooks to cook the dishes with excellent skills, she can still taste the dishes with a faint medicinal and bitter taste.

But Chen Yuan didn't feel bitter, but the more he ate, the more addicted he became.

Because he found that although the essence and energy in his body had been perfected, it was in the critical stage of merging with water and milk, merging into one, and cultivating into a pill.

After eating these dishes cooked with medicinal materials, he could no longer increase his cultivation. Most of the absorbed medicinal properties dissipated directly, and only a small part was absorbed by the body, which strengthened his physical strength.

Although this strength increase was very weak, to Chen Yuan, it was already a pleasant surprise.

After eating for a while, Chen Yuan turned his head and found Mrs. Qingniang beside him, after eating a little bit, she didn't move her chopsticks very much, and just watched herself and other ghosts eating with a smile in her eyes.

Chen Yuan put down his chopsticks and asked, "Madam, these dishes are delicious, why don't you eat them?"

Just now Chen Yuan observed specially that the herbs used in the dishes on the other three tables were all smaller than his table.

Obviously, the herbs on the main table were ordered by Mrs. Qing Niang, and the selected ones were of a higher age.

Mrs. Qingniang said: "This kind of dishes made with medicinal materials is most effective for people who practice like Taoist priests. Although the old woman is a god, she is a ghost in essence. Eating more of these medicinal materials is also to satisfy the appetite. , there is nothing else to do.”

Chen Yuan looked at the three tables next to him, and those who devoured them said: "What about them?"

Mrs. Qingniang said: "It doesn't work if you eat them, they are just for appetite, so the other three tables are all some very old medicinal materials."

Only then did Chen Yuan understand the reason: "So that's the case."

When the banquet was almost over, the plates on the table were empty, and Chen Yuan was also full.

At this time, Mrs. Qingniang said: "The time is almost up, and it will be dawn in less than an hour, and the Taoist priest should go back. Did Mu Si and the others bring the Taoist priest, or did Mu Si and the others send the Taoist priest off?" go back."

As soon as Mrs. Qingniang finished speaking, a group of wooden demons who were watching eagerly not far away brought Chen Yuan here. The four wooden demons who looked like wooden ladders ran over quickly.

Chen Yuan also felt that it was time to go back, but it was a bit embarrassing for the four wooden demons to send him back.

Then he got up and said to Madam Qingniang: "Madam, don't bother the four of them, I can just go back by myself."

Mrs. Qingniang shook her head: "No trouble, these wooden monsters have no other abilities, but they have the ability to travel and can travel thousands of miles a day."

Then Mrs. Qingniang said: "What's more, Daoist, you are at Yangchang Mountain a hundred miles away from Lujiang City. If you go back by yourself, it may take a while."

"Sheep intestines mountain?"

Chen Yuan looked slightly startled.

As far as he knew, the Yangchang Mountain was to the west of Lujiang City.

It is a small hill that stretches for more than 150 miles. It is named for its shape like a sheep intestine.

Chen Yuan did not expect that he was carried to Yangchang Mountain, a hundred miles away from Lujiang City, after lying on the bed for less than an hour.

"The Taoist priest can lie on the bed and sleep for a while, as when he came here, and when he wakes up, he has already returned to the city."

Mrs. Qing Niang proposed.

"Then I will trouble you four."

Chen Yuan cupped his hands towards the four little guys.

"No trouble, Daoist."

"You can rest assured to sleep, we will send you back to the city safely."

"Yes."

"Since Madam has spoken, we will definitely send you there."

The four little wooden demons promised bouncingly.

Chen Yuan turned around and came to the wooden bed that had just been carried, and then lay down on it.

Then the wooden bed was lifted by four little wooden demons, and they headed out of the cave.

Before leaving the cave, Chen Yuan was lying on the bed, vaguely saw Mrs. Qingniang and her group of children smiling and waving goodbye to him.

The light in front of him quickly extinguished, and he returned to the extremely dark mountain forest. The brightly lit cave behind him turned into a small dot and quickly moved away.

Being blown by the icy cold wind, there was a biting cold feeling, Chen Yuan directly covered the quilt and wrapped himself in the quilt.

Then I practiced the "Fetal Breath Jue" on the bed, and entered a state that seemed to be sleeping but not sleeping.

Unknowingly, the sky has brightened.

Chen Yuan sat up from the bed and found that he was sleeping in the guest room arranged for him by a scholar named Dong.

The memories of last night, the cave, the opera, Mrs. Qingniang, the wooden demon...

These are like Nankey Yimeng, which brought Chen Yuan a strong sense of unreality.

But Chen Yuan knew that what happened last night was definitely true.

I ate so many dishes made with medicinal herbs last night, and the body has not yet fully digested the medicinal power, which is a strong proof.

"Daozhang, you are awake."

Just when Chen Yuan was in a daze, Xu San, who was neatly dressed, opened the door and walked in from the outside. Seeing that Chen Yuan was still there, he said with a pleasant expression on his face.

Although he had known for a long time that Chen Yuan was no ordinary person who could have friendship with the magistrate and the city god.

The agreement proposed by the scholar named Dong will definitely not be difficult for Chen Yuan.

But when the thing really happened before his eyes, he still felt pleasantly surprised, which proved that he did not ask the wrong person.

"I woke up."

Chen Yuan nodded.

"Let's go, let's go find the scholar named Dong."

Chen Yuan got up and said.

Since he was still staying in the room after dawn, it was natural that he had fulfilled the agreement with the scholar Dong.

When Chen Yuan and Xu San went to the main room to look for the scholar named Dong, the scholar named Dong came out of the house by himself and met the two in the courtyard, but his expression was a bit ugly.

"I didn't expect you to have such an opportunity. If you invite a disciple of the immortal to come forward, then the matter will be revealed."

The scholar surnamed Dong looked at Xu Sandao.

Obviously, when the four wooden demons left last night, they had already told Dong Sheng that Chen Yuan was a disciple of the immortal.

"Thank you, brother, for raising your hand high."

Xu San was delighted when he heard this.

"Don't thank me, you should thank the Taoist priest, I'm looking at the Taoist priest's face."

The scholar surnamed Dong shook his head.

"However, I advise you that although your skills are extraordinary, if you want to rely on them to make a living, you have to practice hard. There are endless strange people in the world. If you meet again, you will not be so lucky next time."

A scholar surnamed Dong advised Xu San.

"In the future, I will practice my skills diligently."

Xu San quickly promised.

To be honest, since he created the technique of taming frogs and practiced the stunt of knocking frogs and listening to music, it was the first time he met a person who restrained his skills like this.

"Xu San, I've settled your matter for you, so I should go too."

At this time, Chen Yuan said goodbye beside him.

It has been a whole day since he came out, everything in the city is over, it's time to go back to Luxian Temple.

"Master, please stay."

Chen Yuan was blocked by a scholar surnamed Dong.

"I said before that as long as the Taoist priest can live in my house for one night, let alone spare this frog tamer, it is fine to let us turn our fight into jade. I did it, and I admire the courage and ability of the Taoist priest."

"Yesterday, I was rude. I didn't even prepare dinner for the two of you. I apologize today. Please have breakfast before leaving."

Dong Sheng asked to stay.

Chen Yuan really couldn't refuse, so he could only stay.

Then Dong Sheng made a fire to cook. He killed a rooster in the house and stewed it in the pot. He also went to buy a jar of rice wine to entertain Chen Yuan.

Through talking during the meal, Chen Yuan knew that Dong Sheng's name was Dong Ziyou.

Since he was a child, he liked to imitate the calls of animals, but as he got older, he developed a lifelike bird language stunt.

This person is also a scholar, but he is not Bai Ding, and he has already passed the examination to be a scholar.

Although he got the fame of a scholar, Dong Ziyou's life was not good and he didn't have many friends because of his stubborn personality, inflexibility, and always offending people.

But then by chance, when he was on his way at night, he broke into the banquet hosted by Mrs. Qing Niang, and was appreciated by her with her bird language skills.

Chen Yuan thought that before he became his master, Lu Yan, he had borrowed from a relative's home in Lin County, so he could barely be regarded as a scholar, so he couldn't help but get closer to Dong Ziyou.

After breakfast, Dong Ziyou and Xu San were declined to stay again, Chen Yuan shouldered the rusted sword, left Lujiang City and went straight to Luxian Temple.
