The food court was built in a very grand manner. The two outer door pillars alone were made of gold. A golden dragon was entwined around the golden pillars. The dragon looked lifelike, with a golden ball in its mouth, and a frown and angry eyes, looking very majestic.
The plaque above the gate is carved with the two large characters "Food Court" in gold thread and precious jade.
Before Xue Kong and Honglian entered, they felt the glittering beauty of jewels and precious stones approaching them, and a strong aroma of wine lingered around their noses for a long time.
The two of them just took a light breath and immediately felt relaxed and refreshed.
Xue Kong smiled slightly: "This wine is not ordinary wine."
Honglian didn't drink alcohol, but she had a high level of cultivation, so she could tell immediately what it was. She nodded and said, "Perhaps it was brewed by cultivators using natural treasures. It won't significantly improve the cultivation of cultivators like us, but it can strengthen the bones and muscles of mortals, dispel cold and reduce illness."
"Why did you think of coming here to drink?" Honglian was puzzled.
Xue Kong did not answer her question, but went straight into the food court.
The hall was packed with diners and drinkers. Xue Kong had just entered and took a quick look around, but there were no empty seats.
He was about to continue walking in.
A three-foot-tall child was jogging towards me.
The child didn't even look at the road, kicking a football with his feet, and it hit Xue Kong's thigh directly.
Xue Kong was as steady as a rock, without moving, but the child cried out and fell backwards.
But Xue Kong was quick to reach out and support the child, then lifted him up and placed him steadily on the ground.
The child landed firmly on the ground with both feet and breathed a sigh of relief. Then he raised his head in shock and looked at the tall and majestic figure in front of him.
"Thank you, uncle." The child's face was pink and he was not shy at all. His tender voice was heard but was quickly drowned out by the noise in the room.
Xue Kong seemed to have heard it, and he slowly squatted down and said with a smile: "This place is overcrowded, it's not a good place to play football, let's go play somewhere else."
The child squatted down, picked up the ball, and ran away smiling.
Honglian looked at Xue Kong with confusion from behind. Xue Kong had a gentle smile and a very kind face, and her eyes were dazed. Was this still the same evil cultivator who killed people without blinking an eye?
If she didn't know Xue Kong, she would probably be deceived by his appearance.
It really is true that you can't judge a book by its cover.
"Sir, I'm truly sorry. We have more diners and drinkers today than usual. The child we saw just now is our shopkeeper's child. I hope I didn't disturb your pleasure."
After the child left, a waiter immediately ran up in a panic, apologizing and explaining repeatedly.
Xue Kong smiled and shook his head: "Prepare a guest room for the two of us. We plan to stay here for a while."
As he spoke, Xue Kong flipped his right hand, and two low-grade spirit stones immediately appeared in his empty palm.
The waiter originally just felt that he hadn't greeted the guests well, but when he saw this scene, his eyes widened: "Monk!"
"I didn't know that the two immortals were so honored to visit us. I apologize for the neglect. Please come in." The waiter took the spirit stone from Xue Kong and bowed to welcome Xue Kong and Honglian in.
Although Qixia Pass is a place where monks and mortals coexist.
Most mortals have seen monks, but no matter how much they know, when they actually face a monk, they will show a humble attitude.
Even though this food pavilion has received countless monks.
There are many reasons why this leading food court in Qixia Pass has been able to develop to its current scale, one of which is the thoughtful service of the waiters.
Many diners and drinkers also saw Xue Kong taking out the spirit stone.
They all cast envious glances at the waiter.
One spirit stone is enough to pay for accommodation and food and drinks. The extra part is naturally a reward, and part of the reward belongs to the waiter.
This is the rule of the food court.
There were also many monks sitting in this hall.
Unlike the simple envy of ordinary people, these cultivators looked at Xue Kong and Honglian with heartfelt respect.
That is respect for the strong.
"My two guests, this is the best room in our restaurant. Please stay here for the time being. If you need anything, please come and see me."
The waiter happily escorted Xue Kong and Honglian to the guest room and left happily.
In the guest room.
Honglian didn't mind being in the same room with Xue Kong, but there was one thing that puzzled her.
When Xue Kong sat cross-legged on the ground, preparing to close his eyes and meditate, she asked, "Why don't we go find an alchemist? Why do we stay here?"
Xue Kong glanced at her and said, "According to Ge Youtai's memory, the alchemist had left Qixia Pass for some time due to lack of a main ingredient. If we go looking for him now, I'm afraid it would be a wasted trip."
"Don't worry, he will come back and will come to this food court."
"It's because this food court is his business."
Honglian suddenly realized and then nodded.
Then Xue Kong closed his eyes and began to meditate. He said, "You have a certain amount of freedom these days. As long as you don't leave Qixia Pass, you are allowed to go anywhere."
Honglian looked at Xue Kong, pondered for a moment, and did not answer.
Both of them were cultivators with profound cultivation, and their relationship was extraordinary. They were no longer bound by restraints and courtesy like ordinary people. They only needed to instruct each other on something and then carry it out.
Honglian actually had no strange feelings towards Xue Kong. She only hoped that Xue Kong would become a god as soon as possible and give her complete freedom.
Xue Kong took a deep breath.
His cultivation had already reached the middle stage of the Nascent Soul. Even though he was a cultivator with wood-attributed spiritual roots, he could not improve his cultivation only through meditation and breathing.
Nascent Soul cultivation.
The spiritual energy in the body is like a vast ocean, boundless and surging with every movement and stillness.
