In the early morning, the temperature in Lingkong Mountain dropped again.

Even a place with such beautiful mountains and rivers cannot escape the inspection of the four seasons.

It's just that the trees on the mountain are still green, not like the trees at the bottom of the mountain, which have turned into dead leaves and covered the ground.

The sun shines into the window sill, casting golden light on the window.

Chen Ke opened his eyes and got up to wash himself. There were already servant disciples outside who had prepared things for washing. Li Kui stood beside him, waiting for Chen Ke's instructions.

After getting acquainted, the attendants immediately left, and then an exquisite breakfast was served.

Chen Ke has a huge appetite and can eat as much as six people in one meal. This is something Li Kui has always admired about Chen Ke. Because the true disciples of the other four halls have already reached the middle stage of the Taoist realm and can reach Bigu without eating ordinary food.

room food.

Therefore, apart from the food in the entire dining room, which was eaten by the handyman disciples, it was Chen Ke who enjoyed the most.

After eating and drinking, Chen Ke ordered Li Kui: "Instruct the dining room later. Don't make the stew of spiritual things for Senior Sister Ye at noon. I have a good thing that I want to put in. Then help me find a chef.

It’s best to be someone who knows how to deal with natural and earthly treasures.”

Li Kui cupped his hands and said, "Disciple, I obey."

Chen Ke turned around and returned to the bedroom, picked up the Polygonum multiflorum placed in the box, looked at it and said, "Senior sister will definitely be very surprised if she knows."

Picking up the box containing Polygonum multiflorum, Chen Ke walked to the dining room. The chef Li Kui called had been waiting for a long time. The chef was a chubby middle-aged man with a shiny face. Chen Ke knew at a glance that his food must be very good.

.

Seeing Chen Ke holding the box, the chef immediately came over. With a complimentary smile on his face, he bowed his head and said hello to Chen Ke: "Hello, senior brother, if you have any instructions, just ask me, and I will definitely help you complete it."

Chen Ke gestured to the box in his hand and said: "This is the Polygonum multiflorum given to me by Senior Brother Huang. I heard that you are an excellent cook and proficient in pharmacology. Can you cook Polygonum multiflorum?"

"Polygonum multiflorum!" The fat chef looked at the red sweet potatoes in Chen Ke's box, with green leaves on them, like freshly picked apples, fresh and shiny.

"It's Polygonum multiflorum. You don't know how?" Chen Ke asked.

The fat chef was slightly shocked and said quickly: "I can, but I have only heard of the name of Polygonum multiflorum and have never seen Polygonum multiflorum."

"You've never seen Polygonum multiflorum and know how to cook it?" Chen Ke frowned. Is this fat chef joking?

When the fat chef saw that Chen Ke was not happy, he immediately explained: "Brother, the elixir of Polygonum multiflorum is not much different from ginseng. If I cook it the same way as ginseng, I should be able to ensure that 70% to 80% of its spiritual power is retained."

"Will the spiritual power be low?" Chen Ke asked.

The fat chef said: "Senior brother, I don't know. It is best to refine this kind of natural material in an elixir furnace to preserve the essence and finally condense it into a spiritual elixir. If it is refined using the method of essence elixir,

, which guarantees that 100% of the essence will not be lost!”

Chen Ke asked: "Can you make elixirs?"

The fat chef said: "No, no one in the mountains knows how to make elixirs. Maybe a real person can make alchemy, but my status is low and I have no way of knowing."

Chen Ke thought to himself that even if Wufang Taoist really knew how to make elixirs, he would not go to Wufang Taoist with Polygonum multiflorum. It would be a pity if Wufang Taoist took his fancy and took it for himself.

Chen Ke has always been wary of Taoists from the Five Directions.

"Then try to retain as much of the essence of it as possible." Chen Ke said.

"yes."

The fat chef started cooking the Polygonum multiflorum, and Chen Ke was watching from the side. He wanted to ensure that the Polygonum multiflorum was not stolen.

Polygonum multiflorum is not just a cucumber or eggplant, but a real spiritual thing. Although Chen Ke doesn't know what effects Polygonum multiflorum has been around for a hundred years, if an old man with exhausted energy and blood eats it, he will definitely be able to regain his middle-aged appearance.

The fat chef thought that Chen Ke would leave, but Chen Ke was watching from the side, and the little thoughts that made the fat chef's heart did not dare to arise again.

With such a large piece of Polygonum multiflorum, if Chen Ke was not around, the fat chef would definitely take away one or two bites. But Chen Ke was here, and the fat chef was helping Chen Ke cook honestly.

After closing the lid of the casserole, the fat chef said: "Everything is ready. It can be eaten directly after simmering for one to two hours."

"Thank you. You can go down. I'll watch it myself."

Chen Ke started to chase people, and the fat chef also wanted to look at the Polygonum multiflorum here. When the fat chef took a breath of the cooked aroma, he could already feel the spiritual power in his body starting to work, and his body got a trace of the evaporated Polygonum multiflorum essence.

.

"Still not leaving?"

Chen Ke frowned slightly when he saw the fat chef standing still. Seeing this, the fat chef could only sigh, and after talking about some of the concerns about stewed Polygonum multiflorum, he said goodbye to Chen Ke.

It was almost noon, and cooking had already started in several kitchens nearby. However, no cook came to the one where Chen Ke was.

Chen Ke also ate in the kitchen with his rice in hand, just to keep an eye on Polygonum multiflorum.

"Junior brother, you haven't sent it to senior sister yet, right?"

Huang Zunluo walked in from outside. His dusty appearance surprised Chen Ke.

"Senior brother, are you coming back from the mountain?" Chen Ke said.

Huang Zunluo smiled, took out a wide-mouth bottle from his sleeve, and said: "Junior brother, senior brother has prepared a good treasure for you."

"What?" Chen Ke looked at the bottle in Huang Zunluo's hand.

Huang Zunluo said: "What is contained in this is the gallbladder of a spiritual snake. It is about to reach the state of Qi refining. I have been watching it for more than half a year. I heard that you need tonic, junior brother, so I specially chopped it up and brought it to you."

Snake gall is a good thing, and Chen Ke is even more grateful.

"Senior brother, you really don't need it. You should keep it for yourself. Polygonum multiflorum is already a great kindness. I will pay it back slowly in the future. How can I repay you if you give me the snake's gallbladder?" Chen Ke shook his head and refused.

Huang Zunluo smiled and said: "Junior Brother, why should we be like this between you and me? If Junior Brother becomes an immortal in the future, just don't forget Senior Brother. If Senior Brother offends me in the future, please show mercy."

Chen Ke said: "Senior brother, don't worry, I will definitely take good care of you. As for this snake gallbladder, I really don't need it."

Huang Zunluo shook his head, stepped forward, and threw the snake gall into the pot.

"Brother, you..." Chen Ke couldn't stop him and could only let Huang Zunluo put the snake gall into the casserole.

Huang Zunluo said: "Junior brother, don't worry. Although this snake gall will lose its spirituality, it can still retain 70% to 80%, which is enough for senior sister to restore her spiritual power. You can also keep a bowl. It will just help you attack your spiritual veins. Maybe it can really help."

You break through the blockage in your spiritual veins."

"Okay." Chen Ke nodded, feeling even more grateful to Huang Zunluo.

Huang Zunluo said: "I also want Senior Sister to recover as soon as possible and let Fang Xuyuan retreat into his palace and stop blindly meddling in the miscellaneous affairs in the mountain."

Huang Zunluo left, and Chen Ke stewed for a long time.

Between noon and midnight, the snake's gallbladder was finally cured by stewing Polygonum multiflorum and its gallbladder.

By the way, Chen Ke asked for a small box of honey from the kitchen next to him, and asked his disciple to carry it, and followed him to the first hall.

Chen Ke has been coming to Ye Mingyue's first hall every day in the past few days. There is no need for the guard disciples to communicate, so Chen Ke walked in with the handyman disciples.

Ye Mingyue was practicing cross-legged in the inner hall, when Chen Ke knocked on the slightly open door.

"Senior sister, I'm here to deliver medicine to you." Chen Ke shouted toward the inside.

"Come in."

Ye Mingyue's cold voice came, and when Chen Ke heard it, he immediately walked in with his disciples, asked them to put the medicine on the table in the inner hall, and then dismissed the disciples.

"Junior brother, today is the last time to take medicine." The cold look on Ye Mingyue's face turned into a gentle look after the handyman disciple left.

"Yes, but today I changed to another kind of medicine. After taking it this time, senior sister, my strength may be improved!" Chen Ke looked proud, with a look of claiming credit.

Ye Mingyue got off the cloud bed opposite and walked over and said, "Junior brother, don't be joking. Take this medicine every day. It's not painful. It's already good. Can it also improve your strength?"

Chen Ke opened the casserole and revealed the elixir inside.

Ye Mingyue looked over and said, "What is this?"

"The tonic stewed with Polygonum multiflorum and the gallbladder of a spiritual snake is enough to restore senior sister's injuries." Chen Ke took out the decoction and placed it in front of Ye Mingyue, and said confidently.

"Polygonum multiflorum!"

Ye Mingyue was slightly startled and looked at Chen Ke with a look of disbelief.

"Where did you get such a spiritual thing?" Ye Mingyue did not take the medicinal materials carefully prepared by Chen Ke for her.

Chen Ke said: "I specially asked others to come here. Senior sister, please eat quickly."

"I can't eat such spiritual things, so you should prepare medicinal materials for me and I will continue to take the medicine." Ye Mingyue said.

Polygonum multiflorum and snake gallbladder are such precious things that even Ye Mingyue rarely sees. Chen Ke must have suffered a lot before preparing these spiritual things for her.

Ye Mingyue knew that Chen Ke's spiritual veins were blocked. She looked at Chen Ke and said with a warm expression: "Junior brother, you can eat it. Maybe it can stimulate your spiritual veins and open them up a little."

Chen Ke said: "Senior sister, don't worry. After tonight, I will be able to enter Taoism and practice. Senior sister is waiting to see me return as the king."

"Pfft..." Ye Mingyue looked at Chen Ke's funny look and laughed.

Chen Ke pushed the bowl towards Ye Mingyue and said: "Senior sister, eat quickly, don't waste it. The heat that comes out is the lost essence, it is really wasted!"

"You eat it too, otherwise I can't eat it alone. My injuries have already recovered, and I don't need this kind of spiritual medicine." Ye Mingyue's eyes were firm. If she swallowed this kind of spiritual thing by herself,

, wouldn’t that make him a selfish person?

"Okay, I want a small bowl, and the rest will be given to senior sister." Chen Ke said.

"Half for one person, don't delay. Polygonum multiflorum is a rare treasure in the world and has a very good warming effect on your spiritual veins." Ye Mingyue said carefully, with indescribable tenderness in her voice.

"Okay." Chen Ke picked it up and was the first to eat it. After eating it, he said: "It's not poisonous, senior sister, feel free to eat it."

Ye Mingyue then picked up the bowl and chewed slowly, while Chen Ke sat and watched her eat.
