Planted in spiritual fields and watered by spiritual springs, these fruits and vegetables naturally possess spiritual energy. Although there is not much of them, for ordinary people, they are no less than fairy fruits.
If you can eat one, maybe all the pain in your body will be alleviated.
The mole beast looked at the large basin of spiritual fruits, its eyes lit up instantly, its neck stretched out like lightning, and it buried its entire head in it, and began to eat with a crunching sound.
The sound actually gives me a strange sense of comfort, and it is quite relaxing.
"Awoo, Master, I used to be a weak little beast. How could I possibly eat so many spiritual fruits? Choosing to make a contract with you was absolutely the right decision. I'm so happy!"
The mole beast ate frantically while speaking incoherently.
After it finished a bowl of food, Xue Huan added more to it. Seeing it eating with juice oozing out, she felt a little greedy, so she simply took out a stool and sat beside it to eat as well.
But compared to the mole, her appetite was nothing. Even the two big eaters at home couldn't compare to hers.
She couldn't help but worry whether she could afford to raise such a big guy.
Of course, compared with the benefits it brings, the food it eats is nothing.
With such an ancient demon beast that is now extinct as her contracted beast, she has gained a powerful helper, and as long as it is alive, she will not die!
After eating and drinking its fill, the mole felt fuller than ever before. It was so excited that it dived into the lake and swam back and forth for several laps.
Crash!
It suddenly broke out of the water with a big fish in its mouth. The fish was about two or three meters long, and its tail was flapping vigorously. It was still alive.
It threw the big fish in front of Xue Huan, "Master, this fish tastes pretty good, you can take it home and eat it."
After eating so many spiritual fruits from its master, it couldn't do anything for her for the time being, so it decided to help her hunt for some food.
The fish on the ground was dark blue in color, with a wide, flat head. It was indeed a black carp! However, this was the first time Xue Huan had seen a black carp this large.
The meat of black carp is thick and delicious, and has few bones. It is a top-quality freshwater fish. No wonder the mole said it tastes good.
Xue Huan had previously fed the mole, treating it more as a pet, a peculiar creature at best. She hadn't expected it to actually offer her food in return. She couldn't help but feel pleasantly surprised. "Okay, I'll take it."
With a wave of his hand, the big black carp on the ground disappeared.
The mole beast did not find this strange at all. After all, in the era before it fell into slumber, human monks had many methods, and it was very common to have secrets hidden in their sleeves and magical storage devices on hand.
However, it had just woken up and did not know that the times had already changed and were no longer the era it had previously known.
Xue Huan gave the mole a few words of advice, telling it not to hurt or eat anyone, and then left.
After staying at home for two days, Xue Huan was still worried about the family business in the county town, so she said goodbye to Xue's mother and others and went to the county town.
As soon as she returned to the Zhao residence, the housekeeper told her, "Young lady, Master Ye has come to see you several times. He must have something urgent to tell you, and he told me to tell him as soon as you return."
"Well, you can send someone to run it."
Soon, Ye Diao came over. Seeing Xue Huan leisurely eating an ice bowl in the hall, he walked over without hesitation and said, "Give me one too."
The maid brought him a bowl.
After finishing his meal, Ye Diao heaved a sigh of relief. "Xiaoxian, you're finally back. Look, my mouth is burning with anxiety."
Xue Huan glanced at him and saw that there were indeed a few bubbles at the corners of his mouth.
"Running out of chili peppers? I brought some extra this time."
Ye Diao's mood brightened when he heard this. "How much did you bring?"
"One hundred pounds."
Ye Diao pounded his fist happily, "Great!"
In fact, one hundred kilograms is far from enough to meet the current needs of Yingxian Tower, but compared with the original ten kilograms, one hundred kilograms is obviously much more.
"Actually, the main reason I came to you was to invite Mr. Feng to a banquet."
"Did Mr. Feng agree to attend the banquet?"
"Yes, in fact, this is all thanks to you, Xiaoxian. If it weren't for the recipes you provided, especially the cold noodles, Mr. Feng wouldn't have come here. Now if you just ask around on the street, no one doesn't know about our cold noodles at Yingxianlou."
"When do you plan to host a banquet for Mr. Feng?"
"How about the day after tomorrow? Are you free? As for the price, just name it."
"Okay, I'll make you a list later and you prepare the ingredients."
"Okay, no problem!"
"As for the price, it will remain the same as before."
After Ye Diao got the list of ingredients, he said goodbye.
Xue Huan called the housekeeper over and asked if anything had happened during her absence.
Chen Tian: "Nothing much else, except that people keep sneaking into the house at night, and in the end they are either scared crazy or faint. I sent them to the government office. What do you think, should we hire some guards for the mansion?"
"We need to recruit some guards. I'll leave this to you."
After the housekeeper left, Xue Huan sat in a chair and thought. Those who sneaked in at night were probably planning to steal the chili peppers, but they were wrong. She had never kept chili peppers in this house.
Those who coveted the chili peppers did not dare to confront Yingxianlou, so they came to her.
Now she felt a little regretful for agreeing to sell the peppers to Ye Diao only to his family.
Otherwise, selling some on the black market now can also divert some attention.
Come to think of it, chili peppers have been around for so long, why haven’t those people out there found other chili peppers yet?
In fact, a chili pepper had been found in the Imperial Kitchen. That pepper was grown as an ornamental plant. Cai Fu forcibly bought it and obtained a few pepper seeds after the pepper matured.
Cai Fu collected the seeds and sent them to the farm to be planted and carefully tended by experienced farmers. However, it normally takes two or three months from planting to harvesting peppers.
This is the case when the planting is successful.
If the planting is unsuccessful, you have to start all over again.
Therefore, it is impossible for Yushanlou to surpass Yingxianlou in a short period of time.
Chef Gao experimented with the chili peel and cooked two dishes, thus confirming that this was the chili they were looking for.
But the taste is far inferior to that of Yingxianlou.
So after much deliberation, Cai Fu decided to set his sights on Zhao Xiaoxian.
But this time he was smart and didn't take direct action.
Cai Fu arranged people to keep watch outside the Zhao Mansion, so as soon as Zhao Xiaoxian came back, he immediately got the news.
He immediately asked his servants to invite the sorcerer whom he had hired at a high price recently.
The sorcerer's surname was Wei. He had a long and thin face and was about fifty years old. He was wearing a green Taoist robe. When he walked in slowly from outside, he really had a bit of the demeanor of an immortal.
Cai Fu hurriedly stood up and welcomed him in, "Mr. Wei, please take a seat."
"Mr. Wei, Zhao Xiaoxian has appeared. Please advise us on what to do next."
