Lunch room.
Four people sat at a table. In addition to the dishes brought by Ren Lan's mother, there was also a large basin of bone soup.
Inside are several oversized bones.
Because I couldn't find the container, Lin Jichen put it in the washbasin...
Lin Jichen had to go to the hardware store downstairs and buy a saw to cut the bones in order to cook them.
Otherwise, you can only feed it to dogs.
"Sister Xiaowei, I didn't expect your cooking knowledge to be as good as mine, hahaha."
Ren Lan said with a smile.
Qin Xiaowei said embarrassedly: "I saw the bones were quite big, so I thought the soup would be delicious, so I bought it. Why did everyone on the street look at me when I went home?"
"I think you should give up cooking, Miss Xiaowei. Your hands are used to play the piano and be your singer. The profession of chef is not suitable for you, and of course for me." Ren Lan joked.
Qin Xiaowei said awkwardly: "I plan to hire a nanny when my income increases, and I don't want Tangtang to eat instant noodles with me every day."
Lin Jichen nodded and said: "That's fine, but don't worry, you must find a suitable and reliable nanny. Before you find one, you can bring Tangtang here to eat. Anyway, I will get some food as long as I am not busy.
"
"This is no good, we have eaten together several times, how can we come here every day?"
Qin Xiaowei quickly refused.
"Auntie, just agree. I prefer the food cooked by Brother Lin."
Tangtang raised her head from the rice bowl, her face still stained with rice grains, and begged Qin Xiaowei.
For her, comparing the food cooked by Lin Jichen with the food cooked by her aunt, she felt it was a gluttonous feast.
As long as you don't eat the food cooked by your aunt, that's better than anything else.
"Yeah, Xiao Linzi doesn't mind it, so don't refuse. In the worst case, you can buy the groceries and Xiao Linzi will be responsible for cooking. That's okay, right?" Ren Lan suggested.
Qin Xiaowei's eyes lit up, and just when he was about to agree, Lin Jichen quickly stopped.
"No, no, I'll buy the vegetables and cook the food myself, so don't bother me."
Lin Jichen doesn’t want to make ‘Crying Stick Soup’ anymore. Who knows what weird ingredients Qin Xiaowei will buy next time she goes grocery shopping.
"Then I'll pay for the food."
Lin Jichen laughed and said: "No need, Sister Xiaowei, I don't cook every day. Sometimes when I'm busy in the game, I don't have time to come out. You are upstairs and downstairs. You are my landlord. You just come here to have a meal occasionally."
, there’s no need to make it so awkward, at worst, when you become famous, just treat us to a few more good meals at a hotel outside."
Qin Xiaowei thought about it, but she really thought Lin Jichen was her chef after giving her the money, which made her angry.
"Okay, Xiaolin, let's go out to eat together when you are free in the next two days. I'll treat you."
Lin Jichen smiled and nodded, agreeing.
After lunch, Tangtang covered her bulging belly, waved goodbye to Lin Jichen with satisfaction, and went back with Qin Xiaowei.
As soon as they left, Lin Jichen and Ren Lan could not help but feel lonely at home...
enter the game.
"I haven't played Bahuang for two days. I'm almost suffocated. Today I must become a strong foundation builder! Xiao Linzi, just wait to be tortured by me, haha."
After Ren Lan finished speaking, she rushed into the bedroom, just like an internet-addicted teenager who went back to his hometown and stopped using the Internet for two days. After returning, his desire for games was too strong.
Lin Jichen laughed and shook his head. He really didn't understand where this girl got her confidence.
However, he must hurry up to break through the crystal and survive the thunder tribulation.
Currently on the Eight Desolations cultivation list, many people have already crystallized, and some players have even reached the mid-stage of crystallization.
He is not afraid that these people will surpass him. The people on the cultivation list basically rely on human-level breakthroughs to forcibly improve their realm, and their own strength is very weak.
If there was a real fight, Lin Jichen would torture them as if they were playing.
He was afraid that if there were too many crystal players, the second wave of secret realms would be opened soon.
He had to catch up with them quickly so that he could go to the Secret Realm of Crystal Realm to open up wasteland.
And after entering the Crystal Realm, there are many hidden opportunities, tasks, and even caves waiting for him to explore.
The reason why I haven't gone is that my level is too low and my cultivation level is not enough.
Re-enter the game.
Lin Jichen took a lot of elixirs from his own pharmacy and stuffed them into the ring. This trip to the Land of Lei Ze would probably take several days, so he had to prepare all the medicines.
It's great to have a pharmacy at home. You don't have to spend money to get medicines. You can get as much as you want.
By the way, I went to inspect my four stores. Where there were insufficient materials in stock, I filled them in. Then I left Fengqu City, got on the teleportation array, and disappeared.
The next moment, Lin Jichen appeared in a small western border town in Yongning Prefecture.
Lei Ze Land is located in the western region of Yongning Prefecture.
This is the nearest city, still hundreds of miles away.
Lin Jichen rushed to the land of Lei Ze without stopping.
Before we even arrived, we saw the sky dozens of miles ahead being dark and damp, with heavy rain falling.
The dark clouds were dense, and thunder and lightning fell from time to time, frightening everything. It was like a world abandoned by God.
Ordinary people would be so frightened when they saw it from a distance that they couldn't even walk, let alone break in.
Lin Jichen was not afraid at all. He had been here many times before, so how could he be afraid?
The difference is that he only dared to come here when he was in the Golden Core realm in his previous life, because the monsters here are generally above crystallization level, not to mention the monks inside, all of whom have advanced cultivation levels.
Moreover, there are many demonic cultivators mixed in. Lin Jichen came this time with only Foundation Establishment level cultivation.
He doesn't want to take this risk. If possible, he would rather wait until his level is higher before coming again.
Unfortunately, he had no choice but to enter the thunder tribulation to find the Heart of Thunder Spirit. He was afraid that he would not be able to withstand the thunder tribulation in the crystallization realm.
The Heart of Thunder Spirit could increase his success rate of overcoming thunder tribulation by more than 30%, so he had to come.
They were about to arrive, but Lin Jichen didn't choose to fly in the air. Wouldn't flying around at this time be struck by lightning?
Moreover, it is easy to attract the attention of other monks and monsters, so he must keep a low profile.
Traveling all the way, we finally entered the Leize area.
Lin Jichen's feet were wet. The soil here was soft and there were swamps everywhere.
There is a book that says: Jiuhe is the road, Leixia is the river, Xiejuhuitong is the same, the mulberry soil is the silkworms, it is the home soil of Jiangqiu, Leize has the god of thunder, the dragon has the head of the human cheek, and the belly is thunderous.
The god of thunder is the thunder dragon.
What he is looking for is the thunder dragon, and he can find the heart of thunder spirit from it to protect him from the disaster.
However, the Thunder Dragon often appears and disappears, running around everywhere. In addition, the land of Lei Ze is very large, so Lin Jichen is unable to determine the specific location of the Thunder Dragon, so he can only rely on his luck to slowly search for it.
The heavy rain instantly soaked Lin Jichen's whole body.
Boom!
There was lightning and thunder above my head, deafening.
Lin Jichen didn't dare to stay in one place for too long, let alone run to hide under a nearby tree from the rain.
Even real-life children know that you cannot hide under a tree during a thunderstorm, as you are prone to being struck by thunder.
