Zhang Dongliang was not the only one who felt the food was delicious. Although Yang Zhenling and Tong Rui did not speak, it was easy to see from the way they were immersed in eating that the food in the bowl was really attractive to them.
"Is it really that delicious?"
Luo Jin frowned, although it was obvious that he was moved, but he was still questioning.
"It's fragrant, sweet, sour, and glutinous. I didn't expect the 'Eight Treasure Rice' steamed with candied fruit to be so delicious." Zhang Dongliang mumbled while chewing the food in his mouth.
"The key is that the rice used in steamed 'Eight Treasure Rice' is quite special! Even though it is rice, it has the texture of glutinous rice and a special rice aroma. I have never tasted such good rice in my life."
Yang Zhenling licked the rice grains from the corner of his mouth. He had finished half of his eight-treasure rice, and what was left was full of satisfaction.
"Wrong, the most important thing is not the rice, but the cooking skills of the ancient Taoist friend! He really did what we thought we couldn't do. The candied fruit was not brewed in advance, but he just used internal energy when making it.
It can distribute the sweet and sour taste so evenly that the sweetness and sourness in every bite is the same! The originally very sweet and sour candied fruit is steamed with rice, and although the taste is lighter, it still has the aroma of rice.
It feels very special inside.”
Although Tong Rui's dish was a complete portion of the 'Eight Treasure Rice', she had already finished it. She put down the bowl in a hurry and immediately tasted the 'Stewed Lotus Root with Dried Fish'.
"Fellow Taoist Gu, are these meals really gone? It just so happens that I haven't eaten yet!" Shangguan Feng looked at Gu Zheng and finally couldn't help but speak.
"No, I already made three servings, not to mention I don't have any extra ingredients here." Gu Zheng said calmly.
"You don't have any ingredients, but we have some. They are specialties from our Blood Tide Island. They are good gifts for the Kunlun Sect."
Luo Jin spoke hurriedly. In order to taste the food made by Gu Zheng, he decided to use some gifts for Shushan. Anyway, he brought a lot of those things.
"Sorry, I have my own rules. Cooking is cooking, and eating is eating. When I start eating, I won't cook anymore."
Gu Zheng actually wanted to see what the specialties of Blood Tide Island were, but Luo Jin was annoying to him. If he wanted to eat, just let him think about it!
"Can't we make an exception?" Luo Jin looked a little ugly and asked in a deep voice.
"No." Gu Zheng still said calmly, and put a piece of dried fish in his mouth, chewing it happily.
"It's so delicious! I don't understand why ingredients that are familiar to us can burst into different flavors in the hands of ancient Taoist friends? Whether it's candied fruit or dried fish, I eat it too
I have eaten food like 'Eight Treasure Rice' and 'Stewed Lotus Root', but the taste of the candied fruits and dried fish after being steamed or stewed cannot be compared with what the ancient Taoist friends make! It feels like...
Paintings of tigers are not anti-dogs, but the paintings made by ancient Taoist friends seem to have given them a new life!" Zhang Dongliang extended his thumb towards Gu Zheng.
"With different cooking techniques and different understanding of food, even the same thing can have a distinctly different taste. This is the difference between cooking skills." Gu Zheng smiled.
"It's delicious, it's really delicious! Why is this lotus root so fragrant? Even the spicy smell on the dried fish can't cover it up. I've never tasted lotus root that tastes so good! If ancient Taoist friends still have this
If you grow lotus roots, can you give me some? I want to eat them raw to see what the lotus roots taste like!"
Everyone has their own preferences for radish and cabbage. For Tong Rui, she has a special preference for raw lotus root.
"Okay, I just happen to have a little left here."
Gu Zheng put his hand into his backpack, took out a lotus root from the ancient space and handed it to Tong Rui.
"It's delicious! I think the essence of the dish 'Stewed Lotus Roots with Dried Fish' is the soup! The taste of this soup is really incredible. It has all the spicy, spicy and delicious flavors, which makes you want to eat more!"
Yang Zhenling put down the bowl. The inside of the bowl was as clean as if it had been rinsed.
"What a pity. If fellow Taoist monks make something to eat next time, be sure to let us try it too. As for the ingredients, as long as we have them over there, we will definitely not be reluctant to part with them!" Shangguan Feng said.
"Okay." Gu Zheng agreed.
"Then let's say goodbye first!"
"Go slowly, I won't send you off."
After greeting Gu Zheng, Shangguanfeng took Luo Jin and left. Before leaving, Luo Jin took a deep look at Gu Zheng. It was obvious that he didn't eat anything this time, and he felt a little unhappy again.
After Shangguan Feng and others left, Gu Zheng and others, who had eaten, did not stay in the tent anymore. They came to an open space with a clear view, chatting and staying up late.
Although it was very cold, the snow had stopped at least, and the Tianxin sect set up a bonfire again. A group of people were chatting and laughing. The time passed very quickly, and it was midnight before they knew it.
Gu Zheng didn't chat with the Tianxin sect for long. With his eyes closed, he seemed to be meditating.
"Uncle Master, do you think something will happen?"
Yang Zhenling looked in one direction, his face looking a little anxious.
"Probably not! It didn't take long, only five minutes at most!"
Having said that, Zhang Dongliang couldn't care less and looked at the place where Yang Zhenling was looking.
Five minutes ago, the anxious Tong Rui went to have a convenience with a female disciple of the Tianxin sect. Logically, she should be back now, but she didn't even see a single person.
"Nothing should happen, right? When they left, Uncle Zhang also told them not to leave too far. If something happens, there should be no movement at all." A disciple of the Tianxin Sect said.
"Although it's true, when we were attacked on the road, did the dead disciples make any noise? I'm afraid that they would encounter a similar situation." Zhang Dongliang said.
"What's the use of guessing here? If it's not convenient to go over and check, why don't you just call me? I think you are confused because you are concerned!"
Gu Zheng opened his eyes and shook his head. Although he seemed to be meditating, in fact, it was not the case. How could he be calm in such an environment? Therefore, he knew everything that was happening around him.
"That's right!" Yang Zhenling's eyes lit up and he immediately called out: "Junior Sister Tong, Junior Sister Li!"
In the quiet night, the voice of calling can travel far, but it is a pity that Yang Zhenling's call did not receive a response.
"You guys wait here!"
Uncle Zhang and Yang Zhenling's expressions changed, and they immediately stood up and ran towards the direction Tong Rui and the others were going.
Gu Zheng also stood up. He originally wanted to chase him out, but he was afraid that there would be another attack on the camp, so he had to wait first.
"By the way, isn't Tong Rui's status in your Tianxin Sect very special?"
Gu Zheng asked the disciples of the Tianxin sect. After all, Tong Rui's cultivation level was only at the late second level. Logically speaking, with such a level of cultivation, the Tianxin sect should not have taken her all the way to Kunlun. What's more, when she was attacked on the way,
When a disciple of the Tianxin sect died, neither Zhang Dongliang nor Yang Zhenling had ever been so nervous!
"Junior Sister Tong does have a special status, but this kind of specialness is not what the ancient Taoist friends thought." A disciple of the Tianxin Sect hesitated to speak.
"I'm just curious. If it's not convenient for me to tell you, just don't tell me." Gu Zheng smiled.
"Fellow Ancient Daoist is also a decent member of the sect, so it's okay to tell you." A disciple named Wen Yan from the Tianxin sect thought for a moment and said, "This Kunlun sect's grand gathering is different from the past. The Kunlun sect notified the invited sects in advance to ask for help.
Looking for practitioners with Five Elements physiques.”
"Five elements constitution?" Gu Zheng frowned and murmured.
What is the Five Elements Constitution? Gu Zheng once heard Qi Ling mention it.
Yin Yang and the five elements are all-encompassing. To put it simply, the five internal organs of a person correspond to the five elements. To put it more mysteriously, there are many types of physiques suitable for cultivating immortals, including the five elements constitution.
The five elements are divided into: metal, water, wood, fire, and earth. The so-called five elements constitution does not mean that you have to be very affinity to the five basic energies that make up everything in the world, but that you only need to have a certain affinity for one of them.
To such an extent, it can be regarded as a five-element constitution.
The Five Elements physique is suitable for cultivating immortals. As long as such people grow up, they will almost always be the elites of the sect. However, this was only during the era of prosperity. At that time, people with the Five Elements physique were not uncommon. Among hundreds of cultivators, there would be
One is the five elements constitution.
But things are different now. Today is the Age of Ending Dharma. People with the Five Elements constitution will progress much slower than ordinary people in the early stage of cultivation. The various resources required to lay the foundation are much more than ordinary people. When they really show their power,
But you have to wait until you become a true immortal cultivator.
In the era of prosperous Dharma, disciples with the Five Elements constitution were the objects of competition among various sects. However, in the Age of Dharma Ending, disciples with the Five Elements constitution have been the objects that many sects have given up on.
For example, Tong Rui, Yang Zhenling, who is about the same age as her, is already in the middle of the third level, but her cultivation is only in the late second level! Even so, the sect must have invested a lot of resources in her.
result.
"What exactly is the purpose of the Kunlun sect's search for cultivators of the Five Elements constitution this time?" Gu Zheng asked again.
"We don't know this either. We just heard from the leader that cultivators who need the Five Elements Physique seem to be related to the 'Ancestral Dragon Formation'. Junior Sister Tong has a 'Fire Spirit Physique'. Kunlun is also aware of this."
, so nothing can happen to her!"
While Wen Yan was talking, he looked at the direction in which Tong Rui and the others disappeared from time to time, looking very anxious.
"It's related to the 'Ancestral Dragon Formation', and the Kunlun Sect has also informed the invited sects, so it's not surprising that the Demonic Path, which has always been against the Righteous Path, would know about this! Since disciples with the Five Elements Physique are so important,
The Kunlun sect didn't send anyone to pick him up, that's really bold!" Gu Zheng frowned.
"I don't know what the Kunlun Sect is thinking. Anyway, our leader said that the Demonic Way will not go against the Righteous Way on this matter. After all, the disciples with the Five Elements constitution are related to the 'Ancestral Dragon Formation', and the 'Ancestral Dragon Formation'
The Dragon Formation is also related to the lifeblood of the world. If something goes wrong with it, it will be of no benefit to both good and evil. Moreover, the leader also said that if it is empty, it will be real, and if it is real, it will be empty. Let us people take it with us.
It would be safer for Junior Sister Tong to go to the Kunlun Sect! But against all odds, so many dangerous things still happened! Now Junior Sister Tong’s whereabouts are unknown, and Senior Uncle Zhang and the others have gone without any news, so what can we do?
Okay!" Wen Yan was so anxious that she almost cried.
"Don't be too anxious. Fellow Daoist Zhang and the others have returned. We will first understand the situation first."
Gu Zheng's five senses were very strong. He had already seen Zhang Dongliang and Yang Zhenling, who Wen Yan couldn't see, and they were running this way in a hurry.
"No, we can't find them, and there are no traces on the snow. It's as if they disappeared out of thin air." When Yang Zhenling spoke back to the camp, his brows almost turned into knots.
"What should we do? If we can't find Master Nephew Tong, we will definitely be punished by the master after we go to Kunlun!" Zhang Dongliang was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot.
"How long has it been? Uncle Master is still worried about whether he will be punished. Isn't Junior Sister Tong's safety important? Or is it that Uncle Master doesn't care about the life and death of us people at all? As long as you complete what the leader has given you
Is the mission enough?"
Yang Zhenling was really anxious and actually made fun of Zhang Dongliang.
"Master Nephew, what are you talking about? Isn't my mission to take you to the Kunlun Sect safely? Since I care about the mission, how can I not care about your life and death? I know you are anxious, and I am also anxious.
, but you can’t speak without hesitation in a hurry, right?” Zhang Dongliang said angrily.
"Anyway, what you said makes people feel uncomfortable!"
Yang Zhenling's eyes turned red. He and Tong Rui had a very good relationship.
Zhang Dongliang was extremely angry and said with a smile: "Okay, okay, I won't argue with you, what do you think I should do?"
"what to do?"
Yang Zhenling was stunned by the question. If he knew what to do, he wouldn't be as helpless as he is now. However, his eyes suddenly lit up at this moment, and he looked at Gu Zheng as if he saw hope: "Fellow Taoist Gu,
Can you help us find Junior Sister Tong?"
It's no wonder that Yang Zhenling regarded Gu Zheng as a life-saving straw at this time. In fact, in everyone's hearts, Gu Zheng felt a bit unfathomable. He was said to be in the early stage of the fifth level, but his calmness and courage in encounters,
It's really surprising.
Seeing Gu Zheng just frowning, Yang Zhenling said hurriedly: "Please, fellow Taoist Gu, if you can help me find Junior Sister Tong, do I, Yang Zhenling, owe you a big favor?"
Looking into Yang Zhenling's expectant eyes, Gu Zheng shook his head: "I frowned not because I didn't want to agree, but because I was thinking about what to do. You have to be mentally prepared. I will help you search for it, but I'm not sure whether I can be found."
!After all, we are not sure even when she disappeared."
"Thank you, fellow Taoist Gu. As long as you agree to search, I won't have any regrets. I know you will do your best!"
"Excuse me, fellow Taoist Gu, if you can help find Tong Rui and the others, the Tianxin Sect will definitely owe you a favor!"
Yang Zhenling and Zhang Dongliang spoke one after another.
"You guys wait here and stay alert!"
As soon as Gu Zheng's words came out of his mouth, his whole body flew out like an arrow.
