Five hundred and twentieth chapters mortal past
Ancient Cloud Continent, Tianyun City.
It is the end of the year again. For those who practice, it is just an indescribable moment in the blink of an eye, but for those who are secular, it is approaching the most important year of the year.
A heavy snow fell. In the entire Tianyun City, except for some monk's mansions and inns, most of the alleys in the city were covered with snow. Every household, according to the old customs passed down from unknown to them, inserted newly cut peach branches between the window edges and pasted brightly colored couplets on the door frame.
In the evening, the sun had set and the sky was already dark.
In a street east of Tianyun City, where secular people gathered, merchants on both sides boarded big red lanterns early, hung high with flags and wine tricks, making the entire street clear.
The streets and alleys are filled with the aroma of various worldly foods. It is mixed with various rhythmic hawking sounds, which makes it very lively and full of fireworks.
A pretty girl wearing a red cloak and delicate body was holding a brightly colored candied haw in her hand, and she walked slowly in the crowd.
Her whole cheeks were buried in the wide hood of her cape, but her expression seemed a little lonely.
"Brother and the others are not here, and Elder Li doesn't know when he will come back..." The girl opened her teeth lightly, bit off a hawthorn wrapped in sugar, put it in her mouth, and muttered vaguely.
At this time, she suddenly looked up and saw a tall man in blue at the end of the long street. Among the crowd, she walked towards her with a smile on her face.
The girl was stunned at first, her eyes wide open, her face full of disbelief, and she quickly swallowed the hawthorn in her mouth and quickly came forward to meet her.
When she was almost approaching, she saw the man's side through the crowd, and there was a little girl with red lips and white teeth following her.
At this time, the little girl was holding the corner of the man's clothes with both hands, wrinkled her nose, and looking around.
"Chief Li... Lord Li..."
When he arrived in front of the man, the girl immediately pulled down the hood on her head and saluted the man in blue.
This man in green is not someone else, but Han Li who came all the way from Huanglan Continent, and the cloaked girl naturally had Meng Qianqian who had been staying in Tianyun City.
"No need to be polite. The city we entered from the east gate happened to notice your breath and came by." Han Li said with a smile.
"Uncle, who is she? She has such a low realm and her qualifications are also very average." Jin Tong, who was following her, took back his gaze attracted by the street food, looked at Meng Qianqian for a moment, and said with a pout.
"It's your junior sister." Han Li shouted loudly when he heard this.
Meng Qianqian lowered her head a little ashamed, and shouted softly: "Senior Sister, take care of her."
Jin Tong smiled happily when he heard this: "Good junior sister, I'll reward you."
Let’s talk about it, he took out a bottle of elixir from somewhere and threw it to Meng Qianqian.
"Let's go back to Guanyue Garden first, I have something to tell you." Han Li saw that the secular people around him were looking at each other, and although many people did not dare to stop and look at each other, they were all watching, they spoke.
"Yes!" Meng Qianqian responded quickly.
"It smells so good, I'll eat it first." Jin Tong frowned, smelled the fragrance coming from the restaurant, and said. Han Li didn't dare to let her stay here alone. If this little girl really opened her food, she would be afraid that half of Tianyun City would have to give her food and clothing. She said, "Okay, I haven't eaten these for a long time."
"Which restaurant is delicious?" Jin Tong swallowed, unable to wait.
"Is there any bigger restaurant nearby? I haven't eaten worldly food for a long time, and I really miss it." Han Li looked at Meng Qianqian and said.
"Yes, some, Guangyuelou and Huichunzhai are both very good nearby. I'll take you there." Meng Qianqian nodded repeatedly and said.
Over the years, I have been shopping on this street. Although I don’t know much about the food on the street, I am quite familiar with it. I immediately took Han Li to the nearest Guangyue Building.
As a result, before walking through a street intersection, the golden boy, who was already greedy, was caught by a bun shop on the street.
"This mutton bun is also very famous nearby, you can try it." Meng Qianqian recommended as he saw this.
After Han Li nodded, the three of them sat down.
The shop clerk who greeted the three was a bent hunch. Seeing that the three were very upbeat, he quickly trotted over and asked with a smile: "Three guests, what are you going to eat? Our mutton buns are a unique one within a radius of 100 miles."
"First, let's have three bulbs of mutton buns, and add three bowls of mutton soup to cook a little bit." Meng Qianqian took out a ingot of silver and said instructing.
"Okay." The shop guy responded and turned around.
Not long after, three mutton buns with hot white steam were served on the table.
Jin Tong could not bear it anymore, so he grabbed a white mutton bun that was bigger than her hands and bit it up in one bite.
The soft bun skin was bitten open, and the slightly golden soup flowed out, and a meaty aroma immediately filled the cheeks.
Jin Tong's face was filled with satisfaction and he immediately started chewing quickly.
The shop clerk who had not had time to turn around was almost glaring out, fearing that the little girl would be burned and he would take the blame for the shopkeeper.
Just as he was about to remind him, he saw that the little girl had finished her first bun, wiped the oil stains on the corner of her mouth, and then hurriedly grabbed the second one and stuffed it into her mouth.
Next, the girl was getting faster and faster, and in the end she could no longer see her chewing movements. She could only see one mutton bun after another, disappearing into her mouth.
The shop guy just stared blankly, his mouth half open.
"Uncle, I didn't expect this thing called 'mutton bun' to be so delicious. Give me another hundred...a thousand cages." Jin Tong shouted loudly with surprise on his face.
This time, not only the bow-backed guy next to him was shocked, but even the other diners next to him looked at him sideways.
"It's really that delicious?" Han Li said happily.
"Yes." Jin Tong said, smashing his mouth.
"Man, we'll ask for all the things we've done later." Han Li smiled when he heard this.
The arched guy was stunned and didn't react for a while.
Han Li thought the other party was worried that he had no money, so he planned to take out the money for him. But then he remembered that except for various magic weapons and spiritual materials, he had no silver at all, but the most was the immortal stone.
He was so rich that he had no money to settle the bill, and Han Li was probably the number one person in this city.
Seeing this, Meng Qianqian knew it, turned her wrist and took out a medium-grade spirit stone and placed it on the table.
Compared with people in the human and spiritual realm, the general public in the Beihan Immortal Realm has a longer life span and a stronger body. Although they still use yellow and white goods as circulating currency in their daily lives, they are not unfamiliar with the gods such as spirit stones.
Because the spiritual energy of heaven and earth is stored in the spirit stone, ordinary people carry it with them. Although they cannot directly absorb the spiritual power of it, they can also benefit subtly, achieving the use of prolonging life and strengthening muscles and bones.
Therefore, as a high-quality currency, the spirit stone is also circulated in the mundane world, and is even sought after by wealthy businessmen.
But the spirit stone that Meng Qianqian took out is much better than ordinary spirit stones, and is extremely rare in this market, so it attracts the attention of everyone around me at once.
Fortunately, the owner of the bun shop was also attracted by the movement here. He glanced at the middle-grade spirit stone on the table quietly. After asking the reason, he knew that he had met a noble person. He smiled and said, "I respect you because the distinguished guest is too expensive. How dare I accept it?" As he spoke, he had already squeezed the spirit stone into his arms.
The boss's wife went to greet some regular customers around her and asked them to come back tomorrow. After listening to the boss's wife's advice, everyone around them decided to know that these three were not ordinary people, so they stopped looking at them and stopped looking at them. When they came to their senses, they realized that their buns were gone.
"Compared with the taste of magic weapons, it really has a different flavor." Jin Tong was overjoyed and shouted.
"Senior sister, you... do you usually feed on magic weapons?" Meng Qianqian looked at the little girl in front of her, a little stunned.
"Of course. What else is delicious in this city?" Jin Tong looked out of the store and asked again.
"There are more than this restaurant on this street, and there are Huangqiao Seed Bread, Furong Cut Cake, Wine-Food Yuanzi, Crispy Wonton, Spicy Rabbit Head, Cross-Bridge Rice Noodles, Red Oil Handmade Hands, Beggar Chicken, Scallion Oil Pancake, Soup Breaded Soup Bread..." Meng Qianqian said quickly as if she had a few knowledge.
Before she could count them one by one, Jin Tong's eyes were already shining and she couldn't help swallowing her saliva.
"Although I don't know what it is, I feel very powerful when I hear the name... Okay, after eating this one, take me to the next one immediately." Her eyes were bent into crescent moons, and she rubbed her saliva randomly and said.
While he was talking, the arched man just brought over ten cages of buns. Jin Tong sucked the mouth and the ten cages of buns had already entered his stomach.
Han Li looked at this scene and couldn't help but smile, picked up the bowl and took a sip of mutton soup.
The soup is a bit turbid and has a strong taste, but it does not have any fishy smell. When you enter your throat, you will feel warm intestines and stomach.
This is a long-lost flavor.
Han Li had forgotten how many years he had never eaten food in the world. This bowl of mutton soup suddenly brought him back to the world, making him unable to help but think of the closed but simple mountain village in the human world.
He looked around and looked at the lights and crowds around him, and couldn't help but sigh:
