At noon, Gu Qingxi and Xu Baozhu ate some fruits to barely fill their stomachs.
"Oh, I want to eat meat." Xu Baozhu touched her stomach and sighed. This was the first time for her, who loved meat, to eat a meal without meat.
"There are many small animals to eat in this mountain, but we don't have fire." Gu Qingxi also loved meat. After hearing what Xu Baozhu said, she also agreed.
"I brought a fire starter." Xu Baozhu took out a fire starter from another bag on her waist and said listlessly, "But what's the use? There is fire but no meat."
Gu Qingxi was really surprised when she saw the fire starter in Xu Baozhu's hand. Then her eyes fell on Xu Baozhu's waist. Looking at the several sachets on Xu Baozhu's waist, she finally couldn't help asking: "Are some of these bags of yours not storage bags?"
"Yes. My father said that you can't put everything in the storage bag. What if it can't be opened and you are penniless and have no money for food." Xu Baozhu answered honestly.
"So you brought money in your bag?" Gu Qingxi reacted immediately.
"Yes." Xu Baozhu nodded.
"Your father is really foresighted." Gu Qingxi praised sincerely.
"That's right, my father is the smartest person in the world." Xu Baozhu said happily, and then she turned bitter, "But there is no store here where we can buy meat."
Gu Qingxi smiled silently at this moment. It would be great if there was a fire. It was too difficult to make a fire by drilling wood in this mountain with high humidity and no sun. They might starve to death by the time they made a fire. But now it's different with a fire starter.
"Do you have a dagger?" Gu Qingxi asked.
"Yes." Xu Baozhu took out a delicate little dagger from another slightly larger bag and handed it to Gu Qingxi.
Gu Qingxi looked at the delicate dagger and was silent. She knew that Xu Baozhu really had a dagger.
Then the head of the sect and the core disciples in the hall stared at Gu Qingxi and Xu Baozhu's operation with wide eyes.
Gu Qingxi dug a trap and successfully caught a rabbit. He found a stream, then skinned and cleaned the rabbit skillfully. He found a flat stone, started a fire, cut the rabbit meat into thin slices, spread it on the hot stone, and started to roast the rabbit meat. He also squeezed the juice of a slightly sour fruit on the rabbit meat for seasoning.
"These two are quite comfortable in this assessment."
"Compared to those who are still struggling in the first level, they are indeed having a very comfortable time."
In the hall, a group of people whispered, and someone joked that Gu Qingxi's barbecue skills looked good. I didn't expect that stone slabs could also be used for barbecue.
When the rabbit meat was cooked, Xu Baozhu was given a piece. Xu Baozhu ate it with her eyes wide open, and said vaguely: "It's good to pinch it."
"If it tastes good, eat more." Gu Qingxi smiled.
"Well, I have strength after eating, and I will carry you out when the time comes." Xu Baozhu smiled happily.
"No, I can walk by myself. I am too weak, and I will exercise in the future." Gu Qingxi replied.
"What? Body building? That's very tiring." Xu Baozhu cried out in surprise, "Only sword cultivators need to build their bodies, right? Are you going to be a sword cultivator?"
"In fact, no matter what we practice in the future, our bodies are our capital. The road to practice is already full of thorns. We make the worst plans and make the best preparations to go further on the road of practice." Gu Qingxi said earnestly, and then added, "Your father's approach is very good. He asked you to carry some things with you instead of putting them in the storage bag. Look, now they are very useful."
Xu Baozhu opened his mouth wide, thought about it, and suddenly realized: "Yes, Qingxi, you are right! I want to build my body with you in the future."
The two smiled at each other.
The rabbit meat was roasted on the stone slab, making a sizzling sound, and the smoke added a bit of life.
There was silence above the hall.
After a while, the head of Yuling Peak slowly spoke: "Gu Qingxi originally had two spiritual veins of water and fire, right?"
"Yes, two spiritual veins with conflicting attributes like this will not go far on the road of cultivation." The head of Liuyun Peak replied.
"She said very well..." The head of the sect said in a deep voice, "With such insightful ideas, it would be a good choice to come to my Tianqian Peak and manage the Sanwen Hall in the future." Sanwen Hall
is on the mountainside of Tianqian Peak. It is the place where all new disciples take basic courses. There will be disciples with high cultivation to teach the new disciples various basic courses, and of course the heads of the peaks of each peak will take turns to teach things.
Everyone was silent and did not speak, obviously thinking that what the head of the sect said made sense. They also thought that going to Tianqian Peak to manage the Sanwen Hall in the future would be a good place.
Lu Tianyu, who was standing behind the head of Zilin Peak, was anxious and quietly pulled the hem of the head of Zilin Peak. That was his little sister, and she couldn't be snatched away by others.
The head of Zilin Peak turned his head and smiled slightly, signaling Lu Tianyu not to worry. Gu Qingxi's words won the heart of the Purple Forest Peak Master. Now many cultivators are too dependent on spiritual power. If they are in danger and cannot use spiritual power, they are basically useless.
"The assessment is like a picnic. This is the first time I have seen people eating so leisurely in the second level." A voice muttered, with some envy and resentment in the tone. Obviously, the disciple who spoke should not have done well in the second level assessment before.
"Rabbits are easy to catch, but there are still many ferocious beasts in this mountain. Will they be able to take it easy?" Another disciple crossed his arms in front of his chest, with some sarcasm in his tone. He was also jealous. When he passed this level, he was so embarrassed and miserable. These two people were just like going on a picnic. Too much!
"That's right, if they encounter foxes, pheasants, etc., it's okay. But what will they do if they encounter wolves or wild boars?" A disciple took over.
Soon, Gu Qingxi told these people what they would do with their actions.
When Gu Qingxi and Xu Baozhu were eating roasted rabbit meat, there was a rustling sound in the bushes.
Gu Qingxi turned his head to look at the place where the sound came from, with a solemn expression, picked up a wooden stick on the ground and stood up.
"Qingxi, it seems that something is coming?" Xu Baozhu also stood up and said a little uneasily.
A strong wild boar rushed out of the bushes. This wild boar looked to be four or five hundred pounds.
Xu Baozhu was shocked and whispered in a trembling voice: "Why, how could there be a wild boar? Was the wild boar attracted by the smell of our barbecue? What should we do now? Do we run away?"
"Wild boar meat is very unpalatable if it is not deodorized." Gu Qingxi replied to Xu Baozhu with such an irrelevant remark.
Xu Baozhu was confused. She didn't understand what Gu Qingxi meant.
The next moment, her eyes widened.
Gu Qingxi raised the wooden stick in his hand, and at this moment he seemed to be a different person. His eyes were cold, and the aura around him became fierce. He stabbed the wooden stick in his hand at the sturdy wild boar. A sword energy cut through the night sky, making a slight whistling sound.
