Chapter 278: You Can Eat Vegetarian Biscuits

There was a flash of surprise in Shi Zelan's eyes. In the mortal world, there was a material that could be used to make talismans, and it glowed with golden light.

Xia Yu casually handed the stone to Shi Zelan, and looked at it carefully in the sunlight. The colorful stone had a brilliant golden glow.

"It's so beautiful, I won't want to smash it."

Xia Yu listened to Shi Zelan's words, looked at Shi Xiaoliu's calm expression, and said regretfully: "It's too beautiful, let's appreciate it for a while longer."

Shi Zelan shook her head and asked Shi Xiaoliu: "Do you want to watch it for a while longer?"

Shi Zelan handed the stone to Shi Xiaoliu. He did not reach out to take the stone, but just looked at the stone in Shi Zelan's hand.

"It's so beautiful, it doesn't even look like something from this world."

Xia Yu agreed with Shi Xiaoliu's words. Shi Zelan rubbed the stone and wanted to smash it after all.

With a "pop" sound, Shi Zelan saw a docile, dog-like animal emerge from the surface of the river, with tears in its eyes.

Its pitiful and touching posture made Shi Zelan feel soft-hearted.

Shi Zelan saw that it was looking at the stone and raised the stone: "Your stuff?"

It nodded, Shi Zelan touched the stone and threw it to it.

It took the stone with its claws, and then turned its body amazingly in front of Shi Zelan and the other two, splashing water everywhere.

Shi Zelan reached out and wiped the water splashed on her face. She saw the water monster retreat to the middle of the river, swaying its body as if to apologize.

Shi Zelan waved her hand at it: "Go, you mean no harm, and I have no intention of taking your things."

The water monster sank. After Shi Xiaoliu and Xia Yu watched it for a while, they said to Shi Zelan, "It's so smart. Its true appearance is not like this."

"It can become a spirit, so it must be intelligent and know how to make people happy."

Shi Zelan also sighed a bit, saying that if what just came out was an ugly thing, she would probably be a little slow in returning things to others.

"Sister Lan, why do you think that stone belongs to it?"

"When we walked here before, I also looked at the flow of the river and didn't find anything particularly eye-catching in it."

Xia Yu agreed with Shi Zelan's words: "That is not an ordinary thing. I'm afraid it is something it cherishes."

The three of them walked along the river bank for a long time without finding any nice-looking stones. When they were about to leave, they discovered three very beautiful stones thrown into the river.

Shi Xiaoliu stepped forward to pick up the stone, while Xia Yu and Shi Zelan looked at the center of the river cautiously.

The place where the splash occurred quickly calmed down and the water surface was calm, as if nothing had happened.

Shi Xiaoliu handed the three stones to Shi Zelan: "Sister Lan, return the gift."

Shi Zelan held the three stones in his hand, looked at them for a while, and said to Shi Xiaoliu and Xia Yu, "You each pick one."

Shi Xiaoliu smiled and reached out to take a stone: "It's better looking than the stones I picked myself, and it looks spiritual."

After seeing this, Xia Yu also took a stone and said, "It's pretty nice."

The three of them decided to stay at the bottom of the valley for a day, and they went to someone else's temporary cave.

They walked into the cave and found that the water became wetter and wetter as they went deeper. Then they saw a lake of emerald green water.

The three of them stopped in surprise, and Shi Xiaoliu exclaimed: "So there is such a mystery inside."

He and Shi Zelan knew about this cave, but they thought it was someone else's temporary residence and never came in to take a look.

Xia Yu walked over, tested the water temperature, and said to Shi Xiaoliu and Shi Zelan: "Warm water."

When Shi Xiaoliu and Shi Zelan approached and saw some stones scattered around the lake, they reached out to test the water temperature.

"This water temperature is perfect for bathing."

"They probably didn't use the water in here for their diet."

“Where does this water come from and where does it go?”

The three of them walked further inside and found that they were blocked from entering because of a huge rock blocking the way.

Shi Xiaoliu and the other two therefore turned around and left. After they left, Xia Yu said, "This place is suitable for people with water spiritual roots to practice."

After they came out of the cave, Shi Xiaoliu found a medicinal herb at the bottom of the valley, while Shi Zelan sat on the river bank to meditate and practice.

Xia Yu didn't want to hang out anywhere else, so he sat down not far from Shi Zelan to meditate and practice.

At 3 p.m., they climbed up from the bottom of the canyon. Since there was no one at the bottom of the canyon, the three of them naturally moved much faster.

After they left, a big bubble appeared in the center of the river at the bottom of the valley, and then transformed into a very well-behaved large dog.

After Shi Xiaoliu and his group returned to the top of the mountain, they felt that the mountain had become quiet today.

"Oh, I remember now. The busy farming season in the secular world seems to have started in the past few days."

Xia Yu's words reminded Shi Xiaoliu and Shi Zelan that they wanted to go for a walk to the market at the foot of the mountain.

Shi Xiaoliu and Xia Yu mentioned it, and he was stunned after hearing it: "Everyone is busy, are there still many things to sell in the market?"

Shi Zelan smiled and said, "Let's go take a look tomorrow and try to buy some food. We can also take the opportunity to buy more vegetables."

The next day, they came down the mountain early in the morning, and when they arrived at the market, there were indeed many fewer people than before.

There weren't many people selling things, so the three of them walked from the beginning of the street to the end of the street, and then walked back to the beginning of the street from the end of the street.

Shi Xiaoliu quickly bought a large bundle of green vegetables. The vegetable seller was very happy and asked, "Don't you grow this kind of vegetables at home?"

Shi Xiaoliu nodded, and the vegetable seller smiled and said, "I didn't want to sell vegetables at first, but these vegetables are ripe. If I wait a few days, they will become old and not tasty."

Shi Xiaoliu smiled and said, "Uncle, this dish is very fresh and delicious."

The vegetable seller nodded happily: "You have good taste. Do you want the rest of mine? I'll give it to you at a discount."

Shi Zelan nodded repeatedly: "Uncle, can this vegetable be dried in the sun?"

"Sure, the sun is shining brightly now."

They were carrying two bundles of vegetables and walking back. The vegetable seller cleaned up the place, followed them and asked them which direction they were going.

He invited me warmly: "My home is farther away than yours. Do you want to ride on my ox cart?"

Shi Xiaoliu smiled and said to the vegetable seller: "Uncle, thank you. We still need to go to the bookstore to buy some things."

"Oh, I'll go first then."

The vegetable seller left quickly, and Shi Xiaoliu and the other two secretly breathed a sigh of relief. They found a secluded place and put the two bundles of vegetables away.

Shi Zelan changed her clothes and went to the market to buy some vegetables.

Xia Yu asked them both: "Should we buy some rice and flour to take back?"

Shi Xiaoliu and Shi Zelan shook their heads at the same time: "We don't eat rice and noodles recently. If you need it, you can buy some and cook porridge and cakes at home."

"Then buy some flour so we can eat some vegetarian pancakes sometimes."
