Qi Yuan's fire control skills are so superb. Under the stimulation of his true energy, a mere old hen will be rotten by the stewed meat and turn into a pot of fragrant chicken soup in a short time.
.
The few spiritual ginseng tendrils, Ganoderma lucidum, Lingzao and other substances that he added had also integrated their spiritual power into the chicken soup.
As soon as the lid of the pot was opened, an even more alluring aroma spread out, making the surrounding villagers secretly swallow their saliva and become even more reluctant to leave.
But they didn't dare to disturb Qi Yuan.
They had witnessed with their own eyes the scene where Qi Yuan used a spell to sweep away the young man and the middle-aged man in a flash.
Moreover, the Duan boy's broken leg was cured by him with just a drop of water. Such a method must be that of an outsider, so they did not dare to offend him.
Qi Yuan pretended not to see the longing eyes of these people. The reason why he cooked this pot of chicken soup was to treat Duan Lei's mother's illness, not to give these villagers a feast.
With his current status, he couldn't afford to spend time using his own elixir to cook for these villagers just because they were hungry for food.
As for the pot of chicken soup that he has now stewed, most of the water he added to it was not much left, and it was impossible to distribute it to the villagers.
Qi Yuan took a large porcelain bowl from the air, stretched out his hand, and filled the bowl full of chicken soup with a few pieces of chicken and ginseng.
He held the large porcelain bowl and gently blew on the hot air, dissipating most of the heat inside. The temperature suddenly became suitable for eating, and then walked out of the kitchen and handed it to the woman.
"Come on, drink this bowl of chicken soup quickly. After drinking it, your illness will be cured."
Looking at Qi Yuan's kind expression, the woman gratefully reached out and took the bowl of chicken soup. Smelling the rich aroma wafting from the bowl, she couldn't help but put it to her mouth and took a sip.
The moment the chicken soup entered her mouth, the woman felt an unprecedented deliciousness filling her mouth. She swallowed it involuntarily without even tasting the taste carefully.
A grunting sound sounded, but everyone around him followed suit and swallowed.
The two children who were following the woman were even more greedy and had wet their chests with saliva.
The woman didn't bother to look at her child at all. After she swallowed the mouthful of chicken soup, she felt a warm current rising in her belly, which made her feel the warmth that she had not seen for a long time. She felt warm inside and outside her body.
, very comfortable.
She couldn't help but swallow the bowl of chicken soup in big gulps. Even the two ginseng tendrils and the pieces of chicken were chewed and eaten cleanly.
If she hadn't been a little embarrassed in front of the gods, she would have had the urge to lick the bottom of the bowl clean.
When she put the bowl down, everyone could see with the naked eye that her face became rosy and she stood up straight. The sick look on her face before was no longer visible.
"Mom, have you recovered from your illness?"
Duan Lei excitedly held his mother's hand and asked with eyes full of expectation.
The woman was stunned for a moment, and then she realized that all the discomfort in her body had disappeared without a trace.
She was full of strength again, and she had no problem chopping wood and carrying water, and no longer had to be a burden to the family.
Since she fell ill, not only has she been unable to work, but she also needs someone to take care of her. Even her family's small savings have been completely spent. Even her young son has been forced to risk her life.
Risking great danger, she ran into the mountains to hunt valuable animals in exchange for money to buy medicine for her illness, thus attracting the attention of the young master from the official family in the city.
If it had not been for the salvation of gods today, not to mention her illness, even her son would have died.
With a plop, the woman knelt down on the ground and kowtowed to Qi Yuan: "Thank you, immortal, for curing my illness. I kowtow to you."
She was extremely grateful, but her family was poor and she had nothing to repay, so she could only express her gratitude in the simplest way.
"No need to be polite, get up quickly."
Qi Yuan waved his sleeves lightly and lifted the woman up.
Seeing this scene, the surrounding villagers also whispered excitedly.
After all, this kind of thing is usually only spread in stories, but few people have actually seen it. Today, their eyes have been opened, and they will have the capital to brag to their children and grandchildren when they grow old.
The whole family was extremely excited and didn't know how to thank the gods for saving their lives.
They wanted to invite them into the room to sit together, but looking at the appearance of these two immortals, especially Yang Chan, who looked like a fairy no matter how they looked, they felt that their room was simple and simple, without even a straw mat.
None, and I'm too embarrassed to ask them to come in and sit down.
Qi Yuan saw their embarrassment, smiled slightly and didn't mind. He turned to Duan Lei and said to his parents: "This child is destined to me, and I think he has a good talent. It would be a pity if he is buried. Pindao intends to take him in."
Are you two willing to be apprentices?"
As soon as this statement came out, the surrounding villagers started talking loudly.
They looked at Duan Lei with envy. They didn't expect that this boy would have such a chance to be favored by the gods. He was really a blessing from three generations of cultivation.
Duan Lei's parents were also surprised and happy.
If ordinary Taoists came to the door and told them that they wanted to accept their son as a disciple, they might still be hesitant.
But the person in front of me was different.
Not only did the other party just save them, but he also cured the injuries and serious illnesses of their mother and son. Judging from the abilities shown by the other party, he was a truly accomplished person. If they had such an opportunity to meet in person, if they didn't know it yet
How to choose, that would be stupid.
"Yes, yes, it's my son's honor."
The couple laughed from ear to ear and quickly urged their son to kneel down and kowtow to become his master.
Duan Lei quickly knelt on the ground and kowtowed to his master.
In his heart, he was immediately grateful and admired Qi Yuan. Now that he heard Qi Yuan say that he would accept him as his apprentice, he was even more surprised.
Apart from anything else, if you can learn these skills of treating illnesses and saving lives, you will never have to worry about your mother getting sick again.
So he kowtowed a dozen times in excitement.
"Haha, enough is enough."
Qi Yuan chuckled and pulled Duan Lei up.
He likes such down-to-earth children.
When he was setting the child's bones and treating his injuries, Qi Yuan had already inspected his body and discovered that not only did the child have a special physique, but there were also faint wisps of wind lingering around his body. He was actually born with some magical powers to control the wind.
Moreover, this son has a resolute temperament. If he practices swordsmanship with him, he will definitely achieve success in the future, so he plans to accept him as his disciple.
After the simple apprenticeship ceremony, Qi Yuan pulled him up and looked at the eager eyes of the villagers around him. He was worried that these people would also bring their children and try to become his apprentice, so he touched Duan Lei on the head.
He touched it and said: "I have other things to do as a teacher, so I can't stay here for a long time.
Let's do this, I'll give you one day, you can have a good reunion with your family at home today, and you can find me on the mountain peak in the south tomorrow morning."
He still thought about the child very much, so he gave Duan Lei and his family a day to spend time together and let them say goodbye.
Otherwise, it would be unreasonable to take away other people's children without even saying a word, as Qingxu Daodezhen did back then.
Then he flicked his sleeves and robes, casually made a magic trick, and used a simple concealment method to cover the pot stove in the kitchen. When the greedy villagers looked at the pot stove, they would only see it empty.
And can't see anything.
He planned to keep the little chicken soup left in it for Duan Lei and his family to eat to help them improve their health. After all, these were his apprentice's parents and family, and they should be taken care of appropriately.
Then he stretched out his hand a little, and in the eyes of everyone in amazement, a white cloud rose under his feet. Together with Yang Chan, he stepped on the cloud and rose into the sky. In an instant, he disappeared without a trace.
After they left, a group of people immediately started talking, surrounding Duan Lei's family with congratulations, envy, and some wanting Duan Lei to come back and support his children after he learned his skills.
There were even a few young boys who couldn't help but be greedy. While everyone was talking around Duan Lei's family, they sneaked into the kitchen and planned to steal something.
As a result, when I opened the lid of the pot, I found that it was clean and empty, and I was immediately disappointed.
Naturally, their movements could not be concealed from the crowd, and they all retreated under the scoldings of several elders.
Finally, under the persuasion of the village elder, everyone left the Duan family. After all, Duan Lei was leaving home early tomorrow morning, and they were too embarrassed to stay here and disturb their family reunion time.
Duan Lei's parents were naturally very happy about their son's apprenticeship, but when they thought that their son was about to leave their side, they couldn't help but feel reluctant to let go. Therefore, they also warned him earnestly, telling him to listen to the master's words and learn his skills diligently.
Don't cause trouble.
After they finally warned them, Duan Lei's two brothers sniffed their noses and drooled again.
Because, they seemed to smell that fragrance again.
So the two children ran to the kitchen, opened the pot lid and took a look. They immediately found the chicken soup and chicken left inside, and they screamed in surprise.
Duan Lei's parents also looked over in surprise. They didn't expect that there were so many things left in the pot, and then they suddenly realized that this was left by the gods for them.
The free-range hens in their home mainly rely on catching bugs to eat, so they are not fat, and there is not much meat in the whole chicken. The woman did not eat any more, but gave half to each of her husband and several children.
bowl.
Soon the whole family ate up all the delicious food, and the children reluctantly licked the bottom of the bowl and looked longingly into the pot. Unfortunately, this time it was really gone.
After they ate, they soon discovered the condition of their bodies. Especially Duan Lei's father, he felt full of energy and even his strength seemed to be much stronger.
They don't know that chicken soup contains the spiritual energy of these elixirs. After eating these things, their physical condition will be improved invisibly. Not only will they not get sick easily, but their energy will become much stronger than ordinary people.
, those two children will also grow up healthily in the future.
Qi Yuan and Yang Chan flew to Tongguan City hand in hand, and then released a breath.
Soon, Li Cunxiao, who was guarding Tongguan, sensed his aura and rushed to meet him.
"My subordinates pay their respects to Lord Zao."
"Um."
Qi Yuan nodded, raised his hand and handed him a newly refined protective magic weapon, and said: "The child you found has been accepted as my disciple, and this magic weapon will be given to you.
In addition, you should pay more attention to the situation of Duan Lei's family and don't let others bully you.
Previously, a son of a certain general's family came to the city to cause trouble for them, but I threw him into the mountains. If the general is dissatisfied and wants to cause trouble for his family, please help him.
If the other party also invites an expert, if you are defeated, you can call me at any time."
"Yes, Lord Zao, don't worry, my subordinates will definitely take good care of their family."
Li Cunxiao took the magic weapon and promised Qi Yuan happily.
Although Qi Yuan did not refine this magic weapon with too much care, with Qi Yuan's current Taoist skills, even if he refined it casually, it would be enough to make all the Qi Refiners who have not yet become immortals envious.
What's more, the refining materials he uses are relatively top-notch.
Judging from Li Cunxiao's current divine power, being able to obtain this magic weapon for protection is already considered a luxury. He has also gotten to know the Land God near Tongguan City and the mountain god Hebo during this time. After all, they are all in the same area.
Being a god means dealing with others.
As far as he knew, the treasures of those gods were definitely not as good as the magic weapon in his hand.
Especially after he refined this magic weapon according to the method taught by Qi Yuan, he was even more delighted when he felt its power.
Qi Yuan was too lazy to cause trouble for the person behind the young man in brocade. He directly ordered Li Cunxiao to pay attention to the safety of Duan Lei's parents and family, and then he and Yang Chan took a casual walk in the city to take a look at the customs and customs of the city.
When night fell, they rented two rooms in a guesthouse and meditated to rest.
Qi Yuan originally thought about renting just one room, but after thinking about it, Yang Chan felt shy and might not be willing to stay in the same room with him at night.
Even if she agreed, they couldn't do anything over the top here, so they had no choice but to ask for two rooms honestly.
It wasn't until the next morning that he got up and flew directly to the mountain outside the city to wait for Duan Lei.
Not long after, I saw a thin figure running down the mountain. The speed was so fast that it was even less frightening than when Qi Yuan used the magic technique in his early years.
Duan Lei galloped all the way, and when climbing this steep mountain, he was like a spiritual ape in the mountain. With a slight push of his feet, he could jump up to a height of one or two feet. He stretched out his hand to rest on the rocks and trees, and used his strength again.
After rising for about ten feet, we soon reached the top of the mountain.
