"Chestnut, come and try the roasted chestnuts here. The roasted chestnuts with sugar are so fragrant and sweet. I guarantee you will want to eat them a second time. You will have endless aftertaste."
"Come and take a look, the tofu here is tender and white, and there are both sweet and salty."

As soon as he entered the city, a special smell of fireworks appeared outside him, and he could clearly feel the breath of the human world. The mortal world is vast, and how many immortals and Buddhas are addicted to it without waking up. They would rather sink in the mortal world, even if they fall into reincarnation.
No matter what.
Zhong Yan saw the people in the city. Most of them had a trace of food on their faces. They looked obviously still very thin. It could be seen that they were not absolutely worry-free when it came to eating.
"Shouldn't there be four-season rice in Yaoqing? If you plant four-season rice, you won't go hungry."
Zhong Yan saw this, frowned slightly and said.
Four-season rice is the most common grain in the city of origin. Anyone can buy it. It can mature for four seasons in a year. Such rice seeds should be valued everywhere. After planting, they can be used no matter what.
The people in the territory have enough to eat, let alone two meals a day, even if they have three meals a day, it is not a problem to be full at all three meals.
He also saw outside the city that they seemed to be planting four-season rice.
After planting, why is it not enough to provide food and clothing?
Isn't this a joke?
"It's right to plant four-season rice. However, demons are rampant in the Demon Qing from time to time. When the rice is ripe, many demon birds will come and snatch it. They can swallow a large amount of rice in one bite. Under various reasons, even if it is...
Planting four-season rice, in fact, the yield has also dropped sharply. It is good to be able to barely have enough food and clothing. Most of those who can have enough food are senior executives, powerful people, and children of rich families. Ordinary people are ordinary people after all."
He Shuangqing shook his head and said.
There are many reasons for this situation. In short, the output of four-season rice here has never increased. Even when there is a bumper harvest, ordinary people cannot eat much of the food after the bumper harvest. The fields in Yaoqing are
The tax is 20% of the field tax. That is to say, for one hundred kilograms of grain, you need to pay twenty kilograms of grain as field tax, and you can keep eighty kilograms. It seems good, but the problem is that grain is not the best.
valuable.
If you have food, and you need money to eat meat, and money for food, clothing, housing, and transportation, you have to exchange most of the food for money. Most of the food you really keep in your hands is actually quite conservative and can only be used at home.
After changing the money, even the money is not enough. Many things require money. It is never rare that a penny can stump a hero. Therefore, a lot of food is grown, but not much is left in the hands.
You need to be careful about food, drink and life. If you get sick or something, life at home will be difficult.
The people at the bottom end up living a hard life.
At the upper level, there is food, and a lot of the food is used to make wine. The food consumed in making wine is quite large, and a jar of wine can fill the stomachs of many people. But the demand for wine is huge in the homes of the rich, and major restaurants
It also consumes a lot of money, so as long as the people there don't starve to death, it doesn't matter if they eat one meal or two. Ordinary people are slaves. In short, there are many reasons.
The common people at the bottom are like this, but the monks are in another situation.
As long as you embark on the path of spiritual practice, no matter how low your level of cultivation is, you will still be well-off.
Zhong Yan and his entourage walked in, and many people in the city paid attention. After all, this combination was a bit eye-catching. Nu Qingji was leading the way, with two women, one holding A Bao, cute and adorable, and the other holding Blood.
The children are small and lively. One is wearing a veil and her appearance cannot be seen, but it can be vaguely seen that she is definitely a one-in-a-million beauty. The other is a female temptress, which is also very rare. There is also such a person as Zhong Yan beside her.
Opposite sex.
Walking on the street is naturally the focus of many people's attention.
But ordinary people don't dare to approach easily.
Whether it is the Angry Chicken or the Blood Boy, it is obvious that it is not an ordinary beast. Ordinary people do not have the courage to get close. This is the first level of the world, which is the lowest level among civilizations and is also a level where ordinary mortals are the majority.
.Although the affairs of monks are not a secret among ordinary people, they are still taboo. It is not uncommon for many monks to beat ordinary people to death in anger. If a battle breaks out and ordinary people are affected, their death will be in vain.

"Did you know that Tianhuai Tower recently hired a ghost chef? It is said that the food cooked by the ghost chef is unparalleled in the world. Many noble people have tasted it. After eating, they were all amazed and became Tianhuai
A repeat customer of the building.”
"The beauties with beautiful faces and jade, the white jade soup with good fortune and longevity, all kinds of delicacies are simply unforgettable. Everyone who has eaten them is very impressed. Unfortunately, not everyone can enter the Sophora Tower today. Only the rich and powerful can enjoy the ghost food."
The delicacies cooked by the chef himself. It is said that those dishes, if eaten, can beautify the face, increase happiness and longevity, and have various special effects. Everyone in the city wants to taste them. It is said that making an appointment
The meal schedule has been delayed until a month later.”
"It is said that the third young lady married by the third young master of the Chen family had a scar on her face due to an accident. It was caused by a demon and could not be removed. After hearing about the magic of Tianhuai Tower, she immediately went to eat once. After coming out,
, the scars on the face disappeared, and the appearance not only returned to the original, but also became more radiant and attractive, and the appearance was even better than before. Many ladies are very yearning for it."
.....................
Walking in the streets, the various conversations and discussions of the people in the city are constantly coming into my ears. Among them, the one that is mentioned the most is the Tianhuai Tower. Everyone mentions it with great interest and expectation.
I yearn for it and highly respect the ghost chef in the building.
"Have you ever heard of Tianhuailou Taoist disciples?"
Zhong Yan was thoughtful and opened his mouth to ask.
"No, I just heard about the disappearance of women in Huaiyin City, and I was nearby, so I planned to come over and take a look. I am not very familiar with the situation in Huaiyin City, and I have never heard of Tianhuai Tower. However,
I know a little bit about ghost chefs. It is a very special profession. According to legend, ghost chefs have uncanny cooking skills and can turn decay into magic. They are good at using ingredients from various monsters and monsters for cooking. They often have completely different special effects.
, after eating it, it tastes great and has many benefits.”
He Shuangqing shook his head and said.
He doesn't know much about the things in this city than Zhong Yan. Ghost chef is also a very special profession. It is not impossible to cook ingredients that can make people beautiful. However, He Shuangqing still respects ghost chef.
As long as I think about those ingredients, I feel that I have little appetite, and it is difficult to have the idea of tachyon.
"Listening to people's comments, I feel that this Tianhuai Tower seems a bit interesting. It just so happens that there are not only ghost chefs, but also normal spiritual chefs. If you are not used to the spiritual food of ghost chefs, you can also taste the cooking skills of spiritual chefs."
A strange color flashed in Zhong Yan's eyes and he said softly.
"Did Fellow Taoist guess something?"
He Shuangqing looked at Zhong Yan and asked in a low voice.
"If I heard correctly, the time when Tianhuai Tower became famous should be almost the same as the time when those women disappeared. Maybe there will be a connection. Regardless of whether there are clues or not, we still have to eat."
Zhong Yan said with a smile.
Whether there are any dates or not, let’s strike a pole first and then talk about it.
"It makes sense, then go to Tianhuai Tower."
After hearing this, He Shuangqing nodded in agreement.
The location of Tianhuai Tower is very eye-catching. Its body is a huge locust tree. The inside of the tree is hollow and divided into five floors. Even the locust tree itself is still alive. The top is covered with green leaves, forming a large crown.
When the sun shines over, it can also form a large shade. This has almost become the unique symbol of Tianhuai Tower.
Walking over, you can suddenly see that outside Tianhuai Tower, there are a lot of people coming in and out. At first glance, it is very lively. It can be seen that this Tianhuai Tower is very special. Each floor is independent and not connected.
There are long vines that turn into rattan ladders, spiraling up. You can enter directly from the first floor. You need to take the rattan ladder to the second floor. There is an independent rattan ladder on each floor. It appears in four different directions. In front of each rattan ladder.
, all have plaques erected.
It says the chefs on their respective floors.
The first level is an ordinary chef, who cooks ordinary ingredients and can be eaten by ordinary people in the city.
The second floor is already a spiritual chef, but it is an apprentice-level spiritual chef. It can cook some simple spiritual meals, which can still be eaten by those who have just entered the spiritual practice.
The third level is the herbalist, who is good at incorporating medicine into the diet. When eaten, it often has different benefits and is very nourishing. Many female monks like to take medicinal diet.
The fourth floor is a master chef who cooks spiritual food to perfection, with excellent taste and endless aftertaste. Naturally, the price is also high. The same ingredients and the same dishes are twice as expensive.
Double and double again.
The fifth floor is the ghost chef. The ghost chef cooks in a special way. It is said that it has different magical effects. Especially for some monks who have integrated soul blood, the effect is better. Moreover, the taste is special, which is loved by many people.
On the top floor, there are also tree houses. These tree houses are guest rooms for living, hanging on the branches. Each one looks very magical. There are a hundred of them in total, and the price of living in each one is different.
Low, one night requires one hundred Qing Tongbao. If you stay here for a few more days, many monks will not be able to support it, but the facilities inside are still complete. You can also observe the surrounding night scene in mid-air, showing the castles in the sky.
of miraculous.
"Sir, would you like to stay in a hotel or have a meal?"
Arriving in front of Tianhuai Tower, a young man dressed as a waiter came over.
"It's dinner time now. Let's eat first and then stay. Are there any free rooms?"
