I haven't seen him for a while, but I didn't expect that Bijiao Yuanjun would give me a big melon when I met him.

The battle at Biji Peak more than 20 years ago was still quite shocking in Fuyang Road. Even Ding Zongshou and the Ning family of Youzhou, as well as the neighboring Tianhe Sect and Yuelu Sect, heard about it.

Therefore, after the Chonghua Sect entered Wolong Ridge, they specifically inquired about what was strange about the Lingshan Blessed Land left by the Dongxuan Sect.

Why this great river and mountain has been abandoned for so many years without anyone paying attention is impossible to explain without some convincing reasons.

However, the information received was unclear. One of the most important factors is that there were two or three sects that moved to Wolong Ridge, but almost none of them survived for more than a year. They were either wiped out or suffered heavy losses due to attacks by monsters.

decline.

This seems to be a matter of luck in the blessed land of Lingshan. It is difficult to explain it with other reasons, but it is also the most taboo and important reason. Over time, no one is willing to come.

As for individual cultivators, such a large blessed land like Lingshan has become a taboo place, and they are even less willing to take risks.

Of course there are some secondary reasons.

For example, if you are too close to the Tianhe Sect, the Tianhe Sect will not like to see someone sleeping soundly under the couch, and it will easily cause trouble.

For example, there are alien cultivators living in Jade Chicken Peak, and they have a bad temper and ruthless style, and may cause trouble for their neighbors at any time.

There were rumors about the viciousness of the Battle of Jade Rooster Peak, but they were all vague. Being able to hear the person involved talk about it with my own ears was considered a fate.

"Senior, that senior is the same as you..." Chen Huaisheng still couldn't hold it back and was a bit embarrassed.

This was the first time he had heard of the war between different cultivators, and with the strength of Bijiao Yuanjun, that one should have touched or even crossed the threshold of the golden elixir avenue.

"He was slightly better than me more than twenty years ago, but it's hard to say now. It depends on his circumstances and practice in the past twenty years..." Bijiao Yuanjun didn't seem to care too much about this, "These twenty years

I've had a lot of opportunities this year, so I'm confident that I can fight him."

The progress of alien cultivators is slower than that of human monks, and the further they go, the more so because their lifespans are longer than that of humans, and their intuition is very simple for them, but it is too difficult to learn and comprehend.

The further you go, the more emphasis you put on understanding. This is why Chen Huaisheng had to drag Xiong Zhuang into the world to understand and learn. Only he can realize the Tao.

According to the other party, he should have taken a big step in the past twenty years, but the other party may not be able to make progress in the past twenty years, so he came to challenge and take back Jade Rooster Peak. Who would have thought that Jade Rooster Peak would not be able to make progress in the past twenty years?

It has long been abandoned and has become a land without one.

After hearing this, Chen Huaisheng was still reminiscing, but Bijiao Yuanjun said impatiently: "Okay, I haven't eaten the food you made for a long time. I ate it at Changqing Tower yesterday, but it was not very satisfying, so I just looked at you.

Are you here, I have some ingredients here, you can see if you can make some dishes, here, look,..."

A leather bag was thrown over, and Chen Huaisheng quickly caught it and weighed it. Although he didn't know what was inside, the strong aura of spiritual power was self-evident.

As expected, you are worthy of being a leader of different cultivators. I won't give you any chance to argue, just give orders and make arrangements.

"Senior, is there only one person?" Chen Huaisheng looked around and realized that this Shangqing Palace was not a place for cooking.

"It's just me, who else can it be?" Bijiao Yuanjun snorted, "I went to Jinming Pond to fish this out last night..."

Chen Huaisheng was shocked, Jin Mingchi?

This is Zhao's forbidden area, and this guy actually eats from the tiger's mouth?

Seemingly aware of Chen Huaisheng's horror, Bijiao Yuanjun curled his lips, "It's a pity that a good place is dominated by these boring people. The magic circle does have some skills, but it is useless to me.

,…”

Seeing the smug look on Bijiao Yuanjun's face, Chen Huaisheng also knew that the Zhao family's Dharma-protecting formation guarding their important territory was not an easy task. Sneaking in for this person might not be as simple as he said, and there might be some reason for it.

He didn't expose it, he just looked at the other party a few more times, making the other party feel prouder.

He untied the leather bag and took a glance. Although he had been mentally prepared, he still took a breath when he saw something fresh, red light shining, almost overflowing from the leather bag.

Authentic Yellow River red crucian carp!

This thing is named after the Yellow River red crucian carp, but it has long since disappeared in the Yellow River. You may not be able to get one even after half a year in the Yellow River.

In Jinming Pond, it is raised by officials, but it is also hatched and domesticated from generation to generation. Ordinary people only know that it is inside, and only those who are invited to the official dinner every New Year can taste it.

It is said that one red crucian carp can be sold for thousands or even thousands of spiritual stones, and this bag may not contain thirty or fifty!

The total number of red crucian carp raised in Jinming Pond is probably no more than three to five hundred, and no more than three hundred can be eaten each year, and the rest must be kept for breeding.

It is said that the official himself only eats one red crucian carp every day, and the blood of red crucian carp needs to be eaten raw.

Seeing Chen Huaisheng so shocked, Bijiao Yuanjun stroked his beard and chuckled: "There's no need to be so nervous. No one knows that I entered Jinming Pond. This red crucian carp is really spiritual. It took me two hours to catch fifty tails, and I almost did it."

It alarmed Zhao's spiritual cultivation, but I'm just good at this one, so if you have the ability to make a delicious dish, don't waste my hard work all night."

Chen Huaisheng didn't know whether this guy's nighttime intrusion into Jinming Pond alerted the official family, but Chen Huaisheng felt that it might be difficult to conceal it, but the Zhao family might not be able to find the perpetrator now, and if it was exposed, it would lose the Zhao family's reputation.

So I just dared to cover up and investigate in private.

"Senior, I don't dare to cook this thing in the city. Once someone discovers it, it will be a disaster. If senior really wants to have a feast, I'm afraid I have to go out of the city to find a suitable place, and I also have to buy some.

Just the ingredients.”

To be honest, Chen Huaisheng couldn't help but be tempted when he saw these dozens of Yellow River red crucian carp.

The Yellow River red crucian carp is no different from other ordinary spiritual fish. It cannot survive in places that are not full of spiritual energy. Jinming Pond has accumulated spiritual energy for thousands of years, so it can only raise a thousand fish. This shows how precious and delicate this fish is.

Precisely because it is favored by the spiritual energy of Jinmingchi, its fish meat, fish blood, fish maw, fish bones and fish bones are all rare and rare treasures.

Not to mention fish meat, fish blood has the effect of nourishing the roots and tendons. As long as it is a Taoist monk who has not reached the age of twenty-one, it has the effect of nourishing the spiritual roots.

After the fish maw is boiled, it can be bonded with magic tools and talismans to bridge all conflicts in spiritual power. In other words, if you want to make bisexual or three-nature magic talismans or magic weapons, you must have this thing.

Fish bones and fish bones have the effect of strengthening bones and can be used to make Hehe bone strengthening pills, which is no exception for Tao bones. This shows how precious this thing is.

"Okay, as long as you can do it, I will only eat this fish meat. I guess you are also interested in other things. How about you return to me?" Bijiao Yuanjun is not that stingy person. Fish blood, fish maw, and fish bones are very important to him.

It doesn't make much sense, he just wants to satisfy his appetite.

Three hours later, the two of them were already operating in a field outside Fantai.

Chen Huaisheng carefully scraped the scales of the cut fish, removed the fish guts, then rubbed green salt all over the body and marinated it for half an hour.

Then fry the fish until the skin is browned.

Wash the Miaozhu Ruo leaves in a casserole with boiling water, and then spread them on the bottom of the casserole. Place the fried fish in it, on top of the Ruo leaves, and then cover them tightly with Ruo leaves, stacking them layer by layer.

Pour in water and start to simmer.

At this time, Chen Huaisheng began to display his skills according to the "Three Courts of Imperial Diet".

Pour the dill seeds, parsley, kumquat peel shreds, scallions, pomelo seeds, brown sugar, tempeh, salt, vinegar, rice wine, etc. into another small pot one after another, and mash carefully into a sauce.

More than an hour passed, and the casserole began to steam. Chen Huaisheng kept adding water. This crispy-bone red crucian carp was not that easy to make. The meat of red crucian carp is both tough and tender. It needs to be simmered until it is soft, but

It cannot survive the fire and lose its tenderness, so it pays special attention to the craftsmanship. He has never done it before, so he can only observe the heat at all times and strive to achieve perfection.

Finally, when he felt that the soup was gone and only the fish meat was left, he took out the Ruo leaves and the red crucian carp. As for the plate, he slowly poured the sauce to cover it.

Seeing Chen Huaisheng's sophisticated manipulation techniques, Bijiao Yuanjun had to admit that human beings' cooking techniques were simply not comparable to those of these alien cultivators.

Just the variety of ingredients and the cooking temperature are the result of countless experiences accumulated over thousands of years. At this point, the foreign cultivators can't even catch up.

When the fish meat cooled down by itself, Chen Huaisheng gently raised his hand: "Senior, that's it."

He had moved his index finger a long time ago, but Bijiao Yuanjun still had to keep calm in front of Chen Huaisheng. It was not until Chen Huaisheng signaled that he couldn't restrain his inner expectations, stroked his beard, pursed his lips and said with an unbearable smile.

: "You have worked hard too, together, together..."

Chen Huaisheng could hear the insincerity in the other party's words, but since he dared to speak, he would not be polite.

Picking up the fish meat and putting it in his mouth, Bijiao Yuanjun couldn't help but squint his eyes due to the delicious and crispy aroma that penetrated his taste buds. Even the fish bones that had been cooked and crisped had a unique crispy taste when chewed in his mouth.

,…

After Chen Huaisheng ate two red crucian carps, he put down his chopsticks on his own initiative. The other party's somewhat unkind eyes forced him to just watch the battle on the sidelines.

Except for two of the twenty crisp-bone red crucian carp, which were eaten by Chen Huaisheng, the other eighteen were chewed and tasted slowly and carefully by Bijiao Yuanjun. The further back, the slower Bijiao Yuanjun chewed and tasted.

, so slowly that even Chen Huaisheng was a little curious and surprised.

Seems a little different?

Bijiao Yuanjun's eyes have been closed, and there is a bit more confusion and exploration between his brows. From the back, he seems to have some insights, and he seems to be still searching...

Chen Huaisheng did not dare to say anything.

He didn't know what kind of state the alien cultivator was in, especially at the level of Bijiao Yuanjun, it was even harder to say.

The embers of the campfire were only half warm, and the sky was completely dark, but Bijiao Yuanjun still didn't open his eyes.
