Chapter 347: Two Guys Growing Gradually

Leaving Tai Fu Jin Ding, Liu Xiao and Lin Shuangyu returned silently, with nothing to say for a while.

Passing by Goose Mountain, they happened to see people carrying rice bags out of the Zang family manor one after another, many of whom were carrying magic treasures such as swords.

Liu Xiao slowed down and looked a few more times. Lin Shuangyu finally opened her mouth on the side: "What is Xiaolou looking at?"

"This year's spring plowing of the Zang family is a bit early... It's actually over now, half a month earlier than I calculated..."

"Spring plowing? Xiaolou also understands spirit planting and farming?" Lin Shuangyu was a bit surprised.

"Not really, just helped them work, harvested rice..." Liu Xiao suddenly smiled: "I once had a dream that I made a fortune one day, finished harvesting rice for their family, and didn't have to be kicked hard by the steward when weighing, haha..."

"Kicked?" Lin Shuangyu didn't quite understand.

"It's nothing... Let's go back." Liu Xiao waved his hand and quickened his pace.

Arriving at Wuchao Town, Liu Xiao didn't pass through the town, but took Lin Shuangyu to a grain shop and greeted at the counter: "Shopkeeper, is there any newly arrived spirit rice this year?"

The shopkeeper was still the same shopkeeper. After ten years, it seemed that the years hadn't left any traces on his face. He looked exactly the same as ten years ago.

A shopkeeper who buys and sells spirit grain all day long, can he eat less of these things? Even if he is an ordinary person who can't do anything, just eating spirit grain every day is enough for him to extend his life for decades. Even if he reaches eighty, he looks like he is fifty or sixty.

He had a very good memory, and immediately became happy: "Little Immortal Master Liu, haven't seen you for many years, how have you been?"

Liu Xiao said: "Thanks to your blessing, no problem! Is there any new spirit rice?"

The shopkeeper said: "How can there not be? Why, this year Immortal Master Liu doesn't sell spirit rice, but buys spirit rice instead?"

Liu Xiao sneered: "What are you saying? So many years, how can I not make progress?"

The shopkeeper turned out a pocket: "How much? Ten catties? Twenty catties? Old rules, one tael five per catty."

Liu Xiao bargained: "One tael two..."

"Immortal Master Liu, you are an old man, you know, there is no profit, impossible!"

"Can earn two cents..."

"This is spirit rice, only earning two cents of silver, is my shop still open?"

"I'll buy one hundred catties!"

"One tael four! It's really killing me. I can't reduce a cent of silver anymore, otherwise I'll jump into the Wuchao River!"

The two finally traded at the price of one tael three cents of silver per catty, one hundred catties, two hemp pockets, Liu Xiao threw them into the Qiankun bag, and the remaining space in the bag was almost filled at once.

Then he went to buy wine, and various seasonings, etc...

Lin Shuangyu looked at him busily curiously. After finishing, she followed him back to the mountain and couldn't help but say: "Do you handle these trivial matters alone?"

Liu Xiao said: "Otherwise, why are we loose cultivators?"

Lin Shuangyu suggested: "Loose cultivators are not solitary cultivators. You are also the Sect Master of an ancient sect, and now you have reached Foundation Establishment. You are qualified to take apprentices."

Liu Xiao sighed and said: "Take apprentices? Too troublesome... I'm not very old yet, and I still have hope to rush up again, so where do I have time to take apprentices?"

Lin Shuangyu said: "Then find a servant to serve your daily life."

Liu Xiao smiled: "What do I have to serve? I'm used to being alone... This is because Lin Shijie came, and two more people are coming, so I prepared more food. Usually, it's extremely simple, quite comfortable, and I don't need any servants. Having a servant around, I still have to worry about her share, tired..."

Sunset, this was the first night Lin Shuangyu spent on Wulong Mountain, and also the first night she became a Guest Qing of the Three Mystical Sect, and this first dinner, she knew why Liu Xiao didn't need servants.

Watching Bai bring a pile of dead branches and leaves, and then pecking desperately, a white shadow shook, smoke and fire appeared...

Then she felt a cool breeze blowing, Xiao Hei drilled out of the forest, jumping three times and coming to the courtyard, dragging a rabbit in its mouth...

Then Xiao Hei dragged two bamboo shoots...

The two guys dealt with rabbit hair and internal organs by the fire, peeled the bamboo shoots, and folded branches to build a fire rack...

Then, Bai looked at Lin Shuangyu who was "idling," and looked at the rabbit meat and bamboo shoots, so it let Xiao Hei take care of the fire, and flapped its wings and jumped down from the cliff next to it...

God knows, Lin Shuangyu was really not idling, but dumbfounded, or dazzled.

The South Sea Sword Sect is a sword cultivator sect. Sword cultivators are confident that the sword in their hands can win everything, and they are single-minded about the sword path. There are no spirit birds or spirit beasts on Mount Xiqiao, and no one has the energy and interest to fiddle with them.

But there are some on Mount Luo Fu. Lin Shuangyu had seen several spirit beasts. They were all spirit beasts raised by the Luo Fu Sect for I don't know how many hundreds or thousands of years. Their supernatural powers were comparable to Golden Core or even Nascent Soul. They were the treasures of the Luo Fu Sect, and each one was offered like an ancestor. How could she have seen such a scene?

After Bai jumped off the cliff, before she could be shocked and ponder the reason, her eyes were deeply attracted by Xiao Hei again. This black cat stood half-upright, using two cat claws and a tail to flip the rabbit and bamboo shoots roasting on the fire. After flipping for a while, it went to the stove next to it and hugged many bottles and jars, shaking those seasonings onto the rabbit meat.

I don't know how long she watched, but Bai, who had just jumped off the cliff, rushed up again. This time, it had a big fat fish about a foot long in its flat beak...

Until the rabbit meat was roasted, the bamboo shoot fish soup was stewed, and the spirit rice was cooked, Liu Xiao came back from the top of the cliff—he had just gone up to check the thunder fire essence and the thunder leopard bone flute. After coming down, he sprinkled some small particles into the bamboo shoot fish soup and roasted meat, and the fragrance immediately spread, filling the entire small courtyard.

Lin Shuangyu raised her eyebrows and smiled: "Seven-month fragrance orchid from Dafeng Mountain?"

Liu Xiao said: "I know Han Jiuqian from his family. When I visited the mountain, he wasn't there. His family was quite polite and gave me a bag. I said I wouldn't accept it, but his Fourth Uncle and the head of the second branch, Han Gao, wouldn't agree no matter what, saying if I didn't accept it, they wouldn't let me leave. You say this matter is noisy, their family, it's just too hospitable! Alright, we can eat, Xiao Hei, go get the wine..."

The two and two beasts held a banquet in front of the house, sitting together. For a time, "meow meow meow meow," "duo duo duo duo" were endless.

Lin Shuangyu looked left and right, feeling quite interesting. The spirit rice, which had long lost its taste, suddenly became fragrant again.

After a meal, Lin Shuangyu asked: "Do you only have this small courtyard here? Is there a place to live under the mountain?" She is a cultivator, a master in the late stage of Foundation Establishment, who has traveled the world for many years. Where can she not stay? Sitting under a tree, on a stone, or in a cave, she can spend the night. Saying it is just to avoid suspicion.

Liu Xiao said: "Not far below is a Half Pine Flat, which is the abandoned courtyard of my Three Mystical Sect, needing some renovation..."

Lin Shuangyu waved her hand: "Just there, no need to renovate."

Seeing that she was leaving, Liu Xiao really couldn't help it: "Lin Shijie, after talking for so long, who are the other two Guest Qings?"

Lin Shuangyu thought for a while and shook her head: "I can't say well..."

Liu Xiao was stunned: "Can't say well?"

Lin Shuangyu said: "I invited quite a few people, I don't know who will come in the end."

Liu Xiao blinked: "What if none of them come?"

Lin Shuangyu smiled and pointed at the two beasts: "Then let them go!" ===== CHAPTER 348 =====

Lin Shuangyu pointed laughingly at the two beasts: "Then let them go!"
