472, I want to fish, I am ashamed to ask the couple's fate
After five days and five nights, Cheng Tianle and New Year's autumn leaves finally walked to the foot of the snow-capped mountain. In front of them was the vast sea of stars. The dotted lakes fully demonstrated their beauty and coldness in the sun. Behind them is the towering snow-capped mountain. Looking up, you can see white clouds floating under the blue sky.
Nian Qiuyeqing couldn't help but stretch her arms and said, "Oh my God, this sea of stars is so beautiful, it's so beautiful that it's simply thrilling! Why didn't I notice it when I came?"
Cheng Tianle smiled and said, "At that time, you first arrived at the plateau and arrived at this bitter and cold place for the first time. You don't know where your destination is or what dangers you encounter. You feel sad. How could you have such a state of mind? Now after a hardship, you have returned to the Sea of Stars. Although it is still a bitter and cold place, compared to the journey in the snow-capped mountains, you will feel that it is so beautiful, and it is indeed beautiful."
The two hiked through the Star Sea while chatting and laughing. On this plateau with thin air and harsh climate, it felt more nourishing than visiting the park. Cheng Tianle was still collecting the roots of the mother of Zhimu along the way. Nian Qiuye learned that he was collecting spiritual medicines for refining the magic pills and helped search along the way. The two of them collected herbs much faster than one, and it was not so boring.
In the autumn of the year, Ye Wen Cheng Tianle, what bait medicine is needed to refine the magic pill, and how much is missing? Cheng Tianle calculated that among the eighteen elixirs, there are seven flavors that are currently or are sure to collect: Cold Needle Cui, Jade Dragon Smoke, Purple Spirit Paste, Monkey Fruit, Red Flame Fruit, Colored Dragon Scale, and Amatsu Mother Root. The task that was thought to be almost impossible to complete is still difficult now, but there is already a glimmer of hope for success.
He told the names of the eighteen elixirs of Nian Qiuye, and he had never heard of the four elixirs of Nian Qiuye. But she was surprised to tell Cheng Tianle that the elixir lotus in the elixir recipe is available in the Xiaoyao Sect. If the quantity is not enough, she can find a way to find a fellow practitioner to get some. After returning to the mountain, this elixir will be wrapped around her. Cheng Tianle does not have to pay for it or exchange it for other things. This is the natural thanks to Nian Qiuye.
Cheng Tianle was not pretentious and nodded immediately to thank him. In this way, he implemented a magic medicine. Nian Qiuye told Cheng Tianle again that the Cang Shikan and Ginseng Flower Dew among the Eighteen Magical Medicines were collected. However, this thing is relatively precious and if it needs a large batch, it may not be possible to ask for it directly. If you don’t have the opportunity, even if you buy it with a large amount, the Xuanyuan Sect will not be sold.
But Cheng Tianle has a different relationship with the Xuanyuan Sect. Don’t forget that the little monkey, his newly acquired disciple, is very familiar with the Xuanyuan Sect. If the demon monkey practices to become a monkey demon and brings other things to the mountain, it means that the purpose of coming to ask for it. Exchange practice objects or buy them with heavy metal, the Xuanyuan Sect will not give this face.
During this conversation, the eighteen elixirs that refine Lu Wu Shenlun Pills has implemented three more flavors! Although Cheng Tianle has not yet obtained some, he at least knows where to find them. Now he needs to practice well and guide the demon cultivators around him. At the same time, he must lay a solid foundation for the sect, and at least have to have a minimum wealth. Otherwise, if you want to exchange things for money or buy them, you have to take them out!
Cheng Tianle brought more things when she returned than when she came. Not only did she pack five boxes of colorful dragon scales, but she also collected a lot of Achievements roots. The colorful dragon scales were very heavy, and only five boxes weighed 100 kilograms, and they were all packed in Cheng Tianle's backpack. Carrying this amount of things on the plain is nothing to Cheng Tianle. However, it is not easy to recite them on the snowy mountain on the plateau.
The road down the mountain took two days and two nights more than the road up the mountain. It was not deliberately taking care of the Nian Qiuye, who had lower cultivation and slower speed. Cheng Tianle himself was indeed unable to walk fast. At this moment, he could not hold the things, so he took out the coat from his backpack and put a bag on it. He wrapped the other parts inside. Nian Qiuye took the initiative to ask for help carrying the bag, and Cheng Tianle let her take it.
Cheng Tianle is not greedy, but he never wastes it. In addition to collecting the roots of the Mother of Achievements again, he also collects the colored dragon scales when he sees the colored dragon scales. In addition to refining the Luwu Shenlun Pill, this object can also be used to create the magic weapon of the cave heaven by combining the instruments. The colored dragon scale wall can be large or small. Anyway, it won’t be too much, and it won’t be tired if you bring more.
I have never heard of the colorful dragon scales before. I heard that this thing is also a kind of treasure that can refine magic weapons in the cave. Of course, I was very interested and took some to take them back to Xiaoyao Sect for research. I was more enthusiastic than Cheng Tianle when I collected along the way. I wanted to wait for the colorful scales and naked carp to jump out of the water and be caught by them. Of course, the possibility is too small. The main thing is to search for the lakes and river relics that dried up many years ago.
When they returned, they enjoyed the scenery along the way and harvested more than they did when they came. In total, they picked up about half of the colorful dragon scales, and they took half of them. Of course, the two of them talked about their own experiences and various anecdotes on the road. In the autumn of 1998, the leaves were very moved by the remains of various fish in the dry lake. If they were on the densely populated plain, this kind of scene would never appear.
Then they talked about the fact that the local Tibetans seemed to not eat fish. Is it because of their worship of the Plateau Divine Lake or a religious belief? Nian Qiuye discussed with Cheng Tianle in a tone of consultation. Cheng Tianle thought about it and replied: "In this harsh living environment, people have a deeper awe of nature and also need a spiritual pillar to find the meaning of existence when facing difficulties. So a religion that we seem very special came into being, meeting this need and using and driving the people here..."
Nian Qiuye listened quietly as Cheng Tianle made a long comment on the plateau, and then smiled and said, "Cheng Cheng, we are just talking about whether to eat fish. Why did you talk about religion, pyramid schemes, and demon cultivators in the world?"
Cheng Tianle: "Because I have been thinking about establishing Wanbian Sect. When I came to this plateau, I also had thoughts and confirmed what I saw and heard.... As for whether to eat fish, it is actually simple. It depends on whether I am hungry or not. When there was no religion at the beginning, customs might have been formed. It is not easy to catch fish on this plateau, and the fish is not that delicious."
Autumn leaves in 1999: "Isn't the fish delicious?"
Cheng Tianle: "You are Chinese, growing up in the Han area, and you have become accustomed to some things. China has been for five thousand years. This kind of inheritance and accumulation is unimaginable. It is inadvertently available in almost every detail. Take the cooking method as an example. How many kinds of ingredients did our ancestors discover and how many ways did they invent them?
Of course, fish is delicious and can be processed into various dishes. You can’t count them even if you don’t process them well. But if fish are not processed well, it is very unpalatable, fishy and greasy. People in many parts of the world eat fish, but they have never eaten it as exquisitely as we do. I like to eat fish heads the most, but when I was studying in Germany, those Germans only ate whole pieces of fish meat, but the fish heads didn’t eat at all.”
Nian Qiuye: "They can't make it or eat it?"
Cheng Tianle: "It's not just that you can't cook, you can't eat, and you won't even vomit fine thorns! Their cooking methods are pitifully few. If you don't mention these, think about how to eat fish heads with a knife and fork?"
Nian Qiuye covered his mouth and smiled, "Yes, it seems that chopsticks are really amazing. In fact, as long as you can sense the slightest and notice the various subtle movements of the body, you will know how clever this thing is. According to the pre-Qin tradition, knives and forks are used in the kitchen, and the food is served on the table after the cooking is made.
I have heard the story of Meng Mu. When she was pregnant with Mencius, "If the seat is not upright, if the meal is not upright, if the food is not eaten, if the food is not eaten, it is said that this is the earliest prenatal education that has been verified in human history. It is mentioned here that if the food is not upright, it means that the food must be prepared in the kitchen and cut, it can only be served on the table to eat. This is a good food processing and dining hygiene habit."
Cheng Tianle nodded and said, "Yes, the quality of the dining table is actually in the kitchen. As far as I have experienced in Europe, their dining table seems to be very clean, but the ingredients wasted in the kitchen are amazing. Haha, I'm talking about it again. You mentioned the story of Meng Mu's prenatal education just now, and you are familiar with the principles of practice. If you don't sit on the table or cut or eat, isn't it the habit of monks?"
Nian Qiuye: "There was a story about Meng's mother's three relocations later. Now I feel a lot of emotion. Some situations are innate, but some things were chosen by myself... I just mentioned that Meng's mother's deeds are in line with the principles of practice. I remembered that after going through the Vacuum Tribulation in the Alchemy, before we came to the bone-changing tribulation, there was a practice of "raising the holy fetus" to nurture the self in the Vacuum Tribulation, and only after the cultivation of the merits can we be reborn. The mantras and mental methods are similar."
Cheng Tianle: "I am still ignorant of my practice after the Great Learning and need to explore step by step. Junior Sister Qiuye is a disciple of the great sect. Her knowledge of this aspect must be broader than mine, and I am just asking for advice."
They talked and laughed along the way, and both of them were very rewarding. When they were with Cheng Tianle, there was a kind of happiness that could not be described in the autumn leaves. The sea of stars is so beautiful, and everything is so mysterious and so desirable. Cheng Tianle is really as its name, and getting along with him is so relaxed and pleasant. Why didn’t you feel it before?
There is only one thing that makes Nian Qiuye a little depressed. Nian Qiuye told Cheng Tianle on the snowy mountain not to call her Qiuye Fairy, you can call her Qiuye or Qiuye Junior Sister. As she wished, Cheng Tianle later called her Qiuye Junior Sister, and she felt that she was much closer. However, Nian Qiuye still called Cheng Tianle as Cheng Zong, but Cheng Tianle had no other expressions, and did not tell her that she could call her Tianle or Senior Brother Tianle.
But no matter what, Nian Qiuye has never been so happy and comfortable in the past few years. After walking through the planets and Su Sea for three days and three nights, she even thought that this road would be longer and longer. When they walked out of the Star Sea and Cheng Tianle stood on a grass slope and looked away, Nian Qiuye finally couldn't help but ask: "Cheng Zheng, you are already in your thirty years, have you ever had a Taoist partner to make connections? You want to establish the Wanbian Sect to guide the demon cultivators in the world, do you also want to find a demon cultivator?"
