Chapter 146

Xuan Yu said slowly: "The spirit I left on Wonton sensed that you were here, and there happened to be a formation here that we had repaired before. I tried it and opened the passage."

Xuan Yu said it easily, but Jiang Shangzhou was full of disbelief. Being able to change such a powerful formation of Bafang Ding into a teleportation formation, at least with Jiang Shangzhou's current cultivation, he couldn't do it. He was now more and more suspicious of Yu Xuan's identity, and felt that this man was not simple no matter how he looked at him.

Feng Gui looked around and said, "This little cave may collapse. We'd better leave here as soon as possible." Feng Gui was right. When Du Heng first came here, the moon was bright and the stars were sparse. But now, there is not even a single star in the sky. If it weren't for the good eyesight of the cultivators, they would be in a state of pitch darkness.

The thick black seemed to be able to swallow up the light in the small cave. This was not an illusion. Everyone saw that the light from the teleportation array under Xuan Yu's feet gradually dimmed. Logically speaking, a relatively stable teleportation array can last for a long time. After just a little more time, the light dimmed. There must be something wrong.

Jing Nan poked Xiaoyu and said, "Go find out if there are any other small caves nearby that you can stay in. I'll leave it to you."

Du Heng and Xiao Xiao looked at Xuan Yu with stars in their eyes. Xuan Yu kissed Du Heng between the eyebrows and said, "Okay."

Jiang Shangzhou shuddered, his eyes full of anger: "Let go of Du Heng!" How dare you kiss Du Heng in front of him! He didn't agree!

Xuan Yu didn't take Jiang Shangzhou's threat seriously at all. He said to Du Heng, "You guys go sit over there first. I'll look for a relatively stable cave nearby."

After hearing this, Feng Gui first hugged Xiaoxiao and went straight to Tai Shuhong: "Little Feather, you will follow us from today." Feng Gui's face looked like a child trafficker.

Tai Shuhong didn't know what was going on, but when he heard Feng Gui's voice, he couldn't suppress the grievance in his heart. Feng Gui saw Tai Shuhong's eyes were red, and he said distressedly: "Cry if you want to, it's okay."

Tai Shuhong buried his head in his knees, his shoulders shaking, looking particularly pitiful. Feng Gui sighed, he sat beside Tai Shuhong and hugged his shoulders: "It's okay, it's okay, only after going through the wind and rain can you see the rainbow, the suffering you are going through now is paving the way for your future."

Tai Shuhong sobbed, and his tears soaked Feng Gui's clothes.

Xiaoxiao squatted in front of his uncle and Tai Shuhong, looking at them with stars in his eyes. Uncle is good-looking, and so is aunt. They are a perfect match! Uncle is so bold, is the next step going to be a kiss?

Maybe it was because Xiaoxiao laughed too obscenely, Feng Gui raised his hand and slapped Xiaoxiao on the head: "What are you laughing at?!" Xiaoxiao: "Chirp!"

Less than a cup of tea after seeing his uncle, Xiaoxiao was beaten to tears by his uncle. Fenggui felt particularly happy with two crying kids resting on his legs.

Jing Nan, who was in back pain, instructed Ning Pingxi: "What are you standing for? Come, give me a back rub." Ning Pingxi looked flattered: "Okay, where do you want to rub?"

Ye Wenqiu and Jiang Shangzhou looked at each other. Why did the solemn and painful atmosphere in the air disappear after the other three people from the dining hall came? Especially when they heard Xiaoxiao crying, they had never heard a bird cry so loudly... There was no sad atmosphere at all!

Xuan Yu walked back and forth in the square with his head down, and faint spots of light would appear wherever he walked. Strangely enough, those spots of light seemed to gather and fall to the ground on their own initiative. Jiang Shangzhou watched for a long time but could not figure out the principle behind this.

After an incense stick of time, Xuan Yu finally stood still. He said to Feng Gui, "Xixi, can I borrow your spirit sword for a while?"

Feng Gui glared at Xuan Yu: "How can I not lend it? Can't you borrow Ye Wenqiu or Jiang Shangzhou's sword?" Jiang Shangzhou and Ye Wenqiu, who were named, silently protected their spiritual swords, always feeling that they were being despised.

Xuan Yu said slowly: "Stop making trouble, give it to me quickly. I am not used to using their swords."

Feng Gui angrily drew out his spirit sword and threw it to Xuan Yu: "If you do anything to my spirit sword again this time, I will fight you. Do you understand?"

Jing Nan was lying comfortably on the recliner and directing Ning Pingxi: "Press the spine, right here." Ning Pingxi was very servile, with a flattering smile on his old face: "Do you want me to give you acupuncture to relax you?"

Jiang Shangzhou looked at Jing Nan with a frown on his face: "Where did you get the recliner?"

Jing Nan glanced at Jiang Shangzhou: "Didn't you bring the wood talisman?" Jiang Shangzhou was speechless. He could only shut up and turn his head to watch Xuan Yu measuring the direction.

After Xuan Yu got Feng Gui's sword, he used the tip of the sword to poke twice at the brighter light. The hard murderous stone became as soft as tofu under his sword.

Ye Wenqiu couldn't help but stand up and took two steps forward. He had never seen a sword move that was so casual but so powerful. But before Ye Wenqiu got close, Xuan Yu said slowly: "Grand Elder, please step back, otherwise you will interfere with my search for a small cave in other places."

Jiang Shangzhou questioned, "Can you really find other small caves by poking around like this?"

Jing Nan said calmly: "If he can't find it, we will just stay in this cave and wait for death."

Jiang Shangzhou said, "No, I mean my third brother fell from the sky before, but he just can't find the passage he came from. With so many of us looking together, we should be able to find it."

Xuan Yu asked Ye Wenqiu in a good-tempered manner: "Elder Ye, is the small cave you came from before stable? Are there any of our companions in it?"

Ye Wenqiu said: "It's not very stable, and I didn't meet any companions inside. I came here only because I sensed the talisman I gave to Du Heng before." Jiang Shangzhou rolled his eyes when he heard this. His senior brother really didn't cooperate with him at all.

Xuan Yu said: "The collapse of the Wanzong ruins is nearing its end. The larger the cave, the more stable it is and the more beneficial it is to us." Ye Wenqiu said: "Daoyou Yuxuan, please do as you please. Don't worry about my junior brother's nonsense."

As Xuan Yu poked the ground more and more times, more and more faint lights gathered in front of the square. When the number of faint lights reached a certain level, their light obscured the original eight-direction formation. At this time, the cultivators looked down from above and saw that the dense faint lights on the square were like a galaxy. Xuan Yu was standing on the galaxy and holding a long sword to carefully measure it.

Seeing Xuan Yu's movements and the pattern on the ground, Ye Wenqiu hesitated and said, "I once heard from my master that there is a formation in the demon cultivation world that is as famous as my Shenxu Palace's demon-slaying formation. That formation is called the Zhoutian Star Formation. Those who can control the star formation can use the formation to predict everything in the world..."

The more Ye Wenqiu watched, the more he felt that the calculation technique used by Xuan Yu was like the legendary Zhoutian Star Technique. He felt that Xuan Yu holding the long sword was very powerful, and even now he did not have the ability to fight him.

Hearing Ye Wenqiu's words, Xuan Yu smiled and said, "Elder Ye, you are joking. I am just an ordinary casual cultivator. How can I know such a powerful divination technique? This is a simple divination technique that I figured out with my family in my early years. It sometimes works and sometimes doesn't."

People can't relax, and Du Heng is just like that. He was holding his chin and watching Xuan Yu carving the formation, but as he watched, he became hungry. It was not until this moment that he realized that since he came to this small cave, he had only eaten one meal with Xiao Xiao when he first came.

Du Heng flipped through his storage bag and took out a few buns: "Are you hungry? Do you want to order something?"

Hearing this, Feng Gui and Jing Nan stretched out their hands: "Yeah, we're hungry." Xiao Xiao even flew over and grabbed two buns. He had just cried and was hungry.

Xuan Yu smiled and said, "Let's talk about it after we carve the formation. I'm afraid if we stop now, I'll forget where I found it in a while." Du Heng smiled and said, "I'll keep it for you."

Ye Wenqiu liked to eat the fried fish Du Heng made. Du Heng thought about it and took out a bag of dried fish from his storage bag and handed it to him. Ye Wenqiu did not refuse. He put the dried fish in his sleeve and said, "Thank you."

He turned to Jiang Shangzhou and asked, "Elder Jiang, do you want to eat something?"

Jiang Shangzhou shook his head: "I have no appetite." Du Heng looked at Ning Pingxi, who also shook his head: "I'm not hungry."

Du Heng could understand their feelings. To him, Su Zhan was not a good person, but to Jiang Shangzhou and Ning Pingxi, he was a good senior brother and a good friend. If they could eat as if nothing had happened, Du Heng would think that they were being hypocritical.

Jing Nan sighed, "Although he is not a good guy, he has a good master." Everyone knew who Jing Nan was talking about. Jiang Shangzhou glared at Jing Nan unhappily, "Who are you saying is not a good guy?"

By the time Du Heng had eaten two buns, Xuan Yu had finally chosen a small cave: "This is the largest and most stable place I can find."

Xuan Yu swung his sword and something magical happened. The light under Xuan Yu's feet actually moved!

The faint light floated up and gathered towards Xuan Yu. In the darkness, Xuan Yu was surrounded by the faint light. He was handsome and noble. When he danced like this, Du Heng's eyes were fixed on him.

Most of the light fell on the ground, forming a complicated formation, and a small part of the light rotated regularly around Xuan Yu's sword above the formation. This magnificent and mysterious scene amazed everyone present.

Jing Nan sighed, "Xiao Yu is getting more and more proficient at this trick." Feng Gui said, "Yes, I won't be afraid of losing things in the future."

Xuan Yu put the sword behind his back and said to Ye Wenqiu and the others, "The teleportation array is open, we can set off." Hearing this, Jing Nan climbed up from the recliner and said, "Oh, let's go, let's go quickly. What kind of life have I been living these past few days? I'm almost going to die here."

Tai Shuhong and his group were not as excited as Jingnan and Fenggui. Tai Shuhong looked in the direction of Su Zhan's tomb. He understood that this farewell was a farewell forever. There were hundreds of small caves in the Wanzong ruins, and some of them were like a flash in the pan. Even if he could come to the Wanzong ruins in the future, he might not be able to find this small cave.

Besides, his feelings towards Su Zhan were too complicated. As a victim, he could not forgive Su Zhan, but as a child raised by him and the recipient of Su Zhan's spiritual energy, Tai Shuhong had to admit that he was where he is today because of Su Zhan.

Ye Wenqiu and the others did the same thing, and they all looked towards the direction of Su Zhan's grave. With complicated emotions lingering in their hearts, their feet were fixed in place and they didn't want to move.

After this farewell, we will never see each other again, and all the past events will disappear into thin air.

Jiang Shangzhou's eyes were filled with tears again. Because he cried so hard, his eyes were slightly swollen: "Su Zhan, I'm leaving." Ning Pingxi saluted to the air: "Rest in peace, my dear friend."

Tai Shuhong stared at it for a while, then smiled and called out twice, then he stood up and walked towards the teleportation array without saying anything. Feng Gui was right, the hardships he was experiencing now would make him stronger.

Feng Gui and Jing Nan were already standing in the formation. When Tai Shuhong arrived, Jing Nan asked in a long voice, "Should I leave you here to accompany him?"

Hearing this, Ye Wenqiu and his group calmed down and walked towards the teleportation array. The dead opened the eyes of the living, and they still had more important things to do, so they couldn't be sad here.

There was a flash of light in the formation, and everyone's figures disappeared into the formation.

Du Heng really hated the feeling of his body rising or falling quickly. After arriving at the Wanzong ruins, this feeling became extremely strong whenever he sat on the teleportation array.

The teleportation array took quite a long time this time. Du Heng felt like his ears were beating like drums and his heart was about to jump out of his throat. His stomach was churning and he wanted to vomit.

If you ask him how he feels now, he will only have one feeling, which is regret. If I had known earlier, I would not have eaten those two buns!

Xuan Yu held his waist with his hands, and his spiritual energy circulated in Du Heng's body: "Are you okay? Do you want to vomit? Go ahead." Du Heng shook his head: "No..."

What you eat must not come out of your mouth. This is the basic respect a foodie has for food...

Jing Nan slapped Du Heng on the back and said, "Just vomit if I tell you to. You are so shy. Are you Xiaoxiao?"

Du Heng's internal organs were churning after being slapped in the face. He opened his mouth and vomited. As soon as he vomited, they arrived at their destination.

Du Heng felt his body go cold, and he was already stuck in the snow. He scanned the area with his spiritual sense, and saw that the snow around him was three feet high.

Everyone looked at Xuan Yu dimly, and Xuan Yu looked innocent: "I've measured it, this is the largest and most stable cave." It was in this cave that a heavy snow had just fallen, and everything was covered under the snow.

Seeing that the snow had buried everyone's chest, Xuan Yu added: "If I'm not mistaken, there should be many cultivators in this cave."

After hearing what Xuan Yu said, Ye Wenqiu took out a half-foot long cylindrical object from his arms. It looked like the firecrackers from Du Heng's hometown, with a fuse attached to it. Ye Wenqiu pulled the fuse, and a crackling sound came from the firecracker. He raised the firecracker above his head, and it exploded with a sharp whistle.

A dazzling red light from the firecracker shot straight up into the sky, and a lot of smoke and dust came out of the red light, but the smell was not bad. As the red light rose higher and higher, the whistle gradually spread. When the red light reached the highest point, there was a loud bang, and the red light turned into a blooming and gorgeous firework. It was a pity that it was daytime at this time. If it was seen at night, this firework would be so beautiful.

Du Heng actually still felt a little uncomfortable. After vomiting, his stomach felt a little empty. Plus, it was icy and snowy outside, so he felt very cold.

Just as he was about to suggest finding a place to settle down, he heard a whistle coming from the mountains in the southeast, and then a colorful firework bloomed in the sky.

Seeing the fireworks, Ye Wenqiu breathed a sigh of relief: "These are the fireworks of the Dingkun Sect cultivators." Hearing this, Du Heng almost burst into tears. Dingkun Sect! His own sect!

Seeing that everyone had offered their spirit swords, Du Heng also happily showed his spirit sword. Before entering the Wanzong ruins, he had closed the dining hall and stood at the door to practice flying his sword seriously! He could also become a cultivator who could fly into the sky and hide in the ground!

Ye Wenqiu and the others stood on the spiritual light bursting from the flying sword, and they lowered their heads to look at Du Heng who was seriously flying the sword. Du Heng stepped on the blade of the spiritual sword and swayed like a duck, slowly rising into the air. He was not standing alone on the spiritual sword, and Xiaoxiao squatted in front of his feet as a counterweight, so that when Du Heng flew up, the sword would not be high at one end and low at the other.

Feng Gui encouraged, "It's okay, take your time, we're not in a hurry." Jing Nan stood beside Feng Gui with his hands in his pockets and smiled, "Yes, everyone starts as a novice and becomes an expert."

Xuan Yu was standing next to Du Heng, and when Du Heng's sword deviated, he slightly supported the sword: "When injecting spiritual energy into the sword, it should be even. Don't pay attention to the sword deliberately, and look forward."

Du Heng and Xiao Xiao, one stretched out his hands and the other spread his wings, swaying in the sky: "Hmm!"

Tai Shuhong opened his mouth to say something, but Feng Gui said solemnly, "We have to let them learn to grow up. We have to give them time and opportunities." Tai Shuhong smiled with trust, "Yes."

The mountains were covered with snow, and the violent storms froze the forests. Under the crystal ice were green leaves and unripe fruits. Of course, many trees were broken by the snow, revealing their wooden interior.

However, even though the forest was frozen like this, the creatures in the forest were still active. Du Heng saw a little squirrel climbing up a branch and chewing on a fruit covered in ice. He couldn't help but sigh: "It's so tenacious."

Life is very fragile, and a small accident can cause countless casualties. But life is also very tenacious, and no matter how harsh the place is, there is life.

People should not be too arrogant, Du Heng is an example. Before the flying sword was stable, he fell headfirst. He and Xiaoxiao smashed two deep pits in the snow in the forest, and the Qingshuang sword was stuck on a tree branch.

No one wanted to laugh at first, but when they saw Du Heng and Xiaoxiao's legs struggling on the snow, no one started laughing, but everyone burst into laughter.

The laughter dispelled the darkness in Jiang Shangzhou and the others' hearts. Looking at the pure white world before him, he felt that he had the courage to face the unknown future again.

In the end, the two people who were bitten by Feng Gui and his friends had to squat obediently on other people's flying swords. He got a bump on his forehead and never dared to show off again.

Du Heng complained: "I just took a look..." Careless driving really is a bad thing. As a result, he overturned the car and also implicated Xiaoxiao, who had full confidence in him and was acting as his counterweight.

Without Du Heng's disturbance, everyone flew much faster. Just after taking off, three beams of light flew over from the opposite direction. Jiang Shangzhou was overjoyed when he saw them: "It's Qingyan! Why is Qingyan here?"

The person who came was none other than Ji Qingyan, the head of Shenxu Palace. The two cultivators following behind Ji Qingyan were Qi Yushu from Dingkun Sect and his eldest disciple Qin Yuze. This was the first time Du Heng saw Qin Yuze, and he couldn't help but take a few more glances.

Qin Yuze was like a piece of warm jade just like his name. When he and Qi Yushu stood behind Ji Qingyan, they looked like twins. Du Heng had heard before that Qi Yushu and Qin Yuze were close friends. Now it seemed that the two were too similar in both stature and temperament.

When the ruins of Wanzong collapsed, some monks were blown to this small cave by the strong wind. They named this small cave "Xue Shen". Qi Yushu and his companions were the first group of monks blown here by the strong wind. When they came in, Xue Shen Cave was still a paradise.

However, when they had been here for less than three hours, a strong wind blew and a heavy snowstorm began to fall in the cave. Qi Yushu was a Jindan-stage cultivator, but he was unable to withstand the raging wind and snow. Overnight, the cave changed from a blessed land with beautiful mountains and clear waters to an extremely cold place covered with ice and snow. The cultivators who were unprepared for this were frozen into quails in the cold wind.

Qin Yuze felt that the feeling of the wind and snow blowing on his body when the weather just changed was similar to the feeling of his master's Frost Art hitting him. The shivering monks looked at the deep white snow and named this cave "Xue Shen".

The small cave in Xueshen is quite large. The cultivators who were blown here by the strong wind were scattered all over the cave. Only a dozen of them were found today.

It is worth mentioning that the speed of time in Xueshen Cave Heaven is faster than that in other places. A month here is only one day in other places. How did Qi Yushu and his team know this news? That was thanks to Ji Qingyan who entered the ruins later.

Something happened to the Wanzong ruins, Wen Qiong and Wang Muye were trapped inside, and there was no news of the Grand Elder of Shenxu Palace. One day later, Ji Qingyan and the other two sect leaders could no longer sit still, so they decided to rush in. As a result, they were trapped in the snow-covered cave with everyone else, and have not been able to find a way back.

That was fine, but the three clan leaders Yang Yuanqing, Yu Jing and Su Xian who came in together and Ji Qingyan were separated in the ruins. As of today, Qin Yuze and his companions have been trapped in the ruins for four or five months. Ji Qingyan was better off, as he had been trapped for more than three months.

Hearing this news, Du Heng was so shocked that he was speechless. In his memory, he had only stayed in the ruins for four or five days. The Xueshen Ruins were too scary. Would he also be trapped here and unable to get out?

Seeing Ning Pingxi, Ji Qingyan breathed a sigh of relief: "Master Ning, it's great that you are here. Sect Master Wen is injured and urgently needs your treatment."

Du Heng was anxious: "What happened to my master?!"

Two sticks of incense later, Du Heng and his companions arrived at Ji Qingyan's place of residence. It was a mountain that looked like a coffin, with a cave on the side of the mountain. Opposite the cave was a wide snowfield, and under the snowfield was originally a lake.

The cave was a shelter from the wind and cold, and the monks had dug out a series of stone chambers inside. When Du Heng and his companions came in, the monks in the stone chambers came out. Their eyes were dull, and only when they saw Ye Wenqiu did their eyes light up: "Elder Ye! It's Elder Ye!"

This feeling was very creepy. Du Heng felt that these monks were like the living dead, losing their vitality. As he walked through their gazes, Du Heng felt a chill on his back.

Wen Qiong's face was as pale as gold paper as she lay on the stone bed in the deepest stone room of the cave. She was cushioned by several wolf skins and covered with a bear skin. The fur on the skins was blackened by the blood and gave off a bad smell. Wen Qiong fell into a deep sleep. She was petite to begin with, and lying in the furs, she was so thin that she was just a bag of bones.

Du Heng and Xiao Xiao burst into tears when they saw Wen Qiong like this: "What happened to my master?"

Qi Yushu said guiltily, "On the day when the ruins collapsed, the strong wind was raging, and many of our fellow disciples were blown away by the strong wind. In order to save more disciples, our master used his body to block the strong wind. If it weren't for our master, none of the disciples in the cave would have survived."

Jing Nan lifted up the bear skin on Wen Qiong's body and frowned after just one look: "Why is he so badly injured?"

Wen Qiong's legs were shattered by the strong wind, leaving only shredded flesh and blood. Because they had not received medical treatment for several months, the flesh and blood on the wounds had turned black. Even though Ji Qingyan and the others had been using spiritual energy to warm Wen Qiong's body, her body was getting weaker day by day.

Next to Wen Qiong was a jade box, and inside the jade box was a slender arm. The arm was pale blue, and Wen Qiong's hand was covering the jade box. Jing Nan wanted to pull the jade box away, but found that Wen Qiong's hand was tightly holding the jade box and refused to let go.

Jing Nan was puzzled: "What's going on?"

Qi Yushu's eyes were slightly red. "Second and fourth junior sisters were blown away by the strong wind, and Master only left the second junior sister with one arm. She watched the two junior sisters disappear in the strong wind. Master is most distressed about her disciples. Two disciples got into trouble in front of her. Master was so angry that he hasn't woken up yet."

Xiaoxiao opened her mouth and burst into tears. Du Heng choked: "How could this happen..." God is cruel. His two senior sisters were such good people. Now they haven't been found yet. They are probably in danger.

Qi Yushu said: "Not only did Dingkun Sect suffer heavy casualties, only a few of Tianyi Sect's core disciples survived. Half of Shenxu Palace's disciples were also gone..."

Du Heng was also someone who had experienced the ravages of the strong wind. He only knew that he could not resist the strong wind and lost consciousness. The cultivator had a body half made of steel, but when faced with the strong wind, he became a porcelain doll and did not even have the strength to resist.

Ji Qingyan and Ye Wenqiu bowed to Ning Pingxi and said, "Valley Master Ning, please save Sect Master Wen."

Ning Pingxi said in embarrassment: "It's not that I don't want to help, but Sect Master Wen's injuries are too serious. No one can save her except the Demon God." Hearing Ning Pingxi say this, Qi Yushu showed despair: "We are trapped in the cave, where can we find the Demon God?!"

Jing Nan snorted, "If you don't want to help, get out of the way. You're still trying to be cunning at this time! Get out of here! I don't believe that, except for the demon god, I, a casual cultivator, Nan Jing, can't save such a big living person! Xixi Xiaoyu, give me a hand. Du Heng, don't just stand there. Boil some water for me. I need lots of hot water."

Hearing Jing Nan's words, Du Heng took out the stove from his storage bag without saying a word: "Okay!" Tai Shuhong felt that he couldn't help much, so he and Xiaoxiao came to Du Heng and said: "Is there anything we can help with?"

Xuan Yu carefully lifted up Wen Qiong. Wen Qiong's feet had turned dark blue due to lack of blood supply. Jing Nan instructed Xixi: "Xixi, throw away these dirty furs."

Feng Gui received the order and walked out of the stone chamber with his fur rolled up. When he saw Ye Wenqiu and the others standing at the door, he frowned and said, "What are you all doing here? Nan Nan doesn't like to be watched when she's treating patients. Go away."

Feng Gui handed the dirty fur in his hand to Ning Pingxi. He smiled and said, "There are no demon gods here, only independent cultivators who don't want their companions to die. Understand?" Ning Pingxi lowered his head in panic, "Yes, yes, yes."

Feng Gui pointed at Qi Yushu and said, "You guard the door and don't let anyone in." Feng Gui unceremoniously drove Jiang Shangzhou, Ye Wenqiu and others out of the stone chamber. Not to mention, the stone chamber suddenly became a lot quieter.

The stone chamber was divided into two parts. Du Heng was boiling water on the outside, while Tai Shuhong was responsible for using his spiritual energy to bring the water vapor and the unpleasant air in the cave to the outside. Xiaoxiao squatted on the stove and put the large wooden basins in place. Du Heng was burning the fire anxiously, and couldn't help but want to look into the inner room.

However, there was an extra screen between the inner and outer rooms. Even if Du Heng looked out, his consciousness could not penetrate the screen. After the water was boiled, Du Heng said to the inner room, "The water is boiled."

Xuan Yu walked out from the side of the screen. Du Heng looked at Xuan Yu anxiously: "My master..." Xuan Yu said slowly: "Nan Nan will cure her, you don't have to panic. By the way, she hasn't eaten for a long time, she will definitely feel hungry when she wakes up, you can make something easy to digest."

Xuan Yu tapped Du Heng's chest twice as he spoke: "Since the news that you are in possession of the Fantasy Sky Pearl has spread, there is no point in hiding it any longer." Xuan Yu is unlocking Du Heng's golden finger function!

Du Heng stretched his neck to look inside, but Xuan Yu covered his eyes: "Don't look, your master wouldn't want you to see her like this."

Du Heng nodded in understanding, and he opened the lid of the pot: "The water is ready." Xuan Yu kissed Du Heng's forehead: "Don't be afraid, she will be fine."

Xuan Yu sent pots of boiling water to the inner room, and when they came out, they turned into pots of dirty black water. Qi Yushu and his men, who were guarding the door, had another job: to send the bloody water as far away as possible.

Du Heng heard a whimpering sound coming from the inner room, and then Jing Nan's voice rang out: "Don't be afraid, Xiao Qiong, it's us. Don't be afraid." Wen Qiong's voice was intermittent: "Run... run... Yuanyuan... Jianing... run..."

Yuanyuan is the name of the second senior sister, and Jianing is the name of the fourth senior sister. Du Heng felt particularly uncomfortable when he heard Wen Qiong calling them in this situation.

After Wen Qiong whispered a few words, there was no movement again. Only Jing Nan could be heard whispering instructions to Feng Gui and Xuan Yu: "Add some spiritual energy, they need to grow legs again." After Jing Nan said this, Wen Qiong hummed softly, and the sound was clearly the sobbing of someone who was in extreme pain but was trying hard to hold it back.

Du Heng's heart was in a mess, he was at a loss, when he looked down, he saw Xiao Xiao's eyes full of sadness. Du Heng touched Xiao Xiao's head, comforting him and comforting himself at the same time: "Don't be afraid, my master is a lucky person, she will be fine."

When Du Heng was flustered, he would calm down as soon as he cooked. Just now, he heard Xuan Yu say that the master needed some digestible food. He thought for a long time before he realized that in the ice and snow, what could be better than a pot of hot mullet porridge?

Du Heng hadn't cooked seriously for a long time. At this moment, people were saving people in the inner room, but he was cooking. If someone saw this scene, they would definitely think he was crazy. However, at this moment, as long as he could calm himself down and not think about Wen Qiong and the two sisters, he was willing to do anything.

Du Heng fished the lively mullet out of the refrigerator and slapped it on the chopping board. Mullet is also known as black snakehead, and has many irregular dark blue spots all over its body. This was the mullet that the servants of the spiritual medicine field brought to Du Heng when he was still in the first dining hall. This fish is ferocious by nature and feeds on fish in the lake.

The servants had a headache when they saw this kind of fish. This kind of fish would make nests and they could not be killed. As long as there was a nest in the lake, other fish would not grow. The servants did not like to eat this kind of fish because its meat would have an earthy smell and a hard texture if not cooked properly. When they learned that Du Heng liked this kind of fish, they gave him several.

Listening to the noises coming from the inner room, Du Heng skillfully removed the scales and cut open the belly. Usually, this job was done by Xuan Yu, but when Xuan Yu was busy, Du Heng did a good job.

A fresh big mullet quickly became a large bowl of thin, translucent fish slices and chopped fish heads and bones. Du Heng took the mullet head and carefully cleaned the scales on the head again. Mullet is different from other fish. It has scales all over its body, especially the scales on the head, which are small and difficult to handle.

After cleaning the fish head, he poured a little soybean oil into the casserole. When the oil was hot, he added shredded ginger to bring out the aroma. When the oil was hot enough, Du Heng pushed the fish head and bones on the chopping board into the casserole, and a sizzling sound was heard.

Ye Wenqiu and others who were guarding outside heard the noise coming from the outer room and looked at each other in surprise. When they smelled the smoke, their expressions were extremely interesting.

When the fish head and bones in the pot turned golden brown, Du Heng added half a pot of boiling water to the pot. The secret of cooking mullet porridge lies in this pot of soup. When Du Heng makes fish fillet porridge, he likes to use fish soup to enhance the flavor.

While the fish soup was cooking in the casserole, he marinated the fish slices in the big bowl. After adding white wine, shredded ginger, scallions and a small amount of starch to the thin fish slices and kneading them slightly, Du Heng put the big bowl aside. Looking at the fish slices in the bowl, he always felt that he had forgotten something.

Cooking is like practicing. If you don't cook well for a few days, you will lose your way. Du Heng thought for a while before he realized that he forgot to add some pepper to the fish fillet!

After adding pepper to the fish fillet, Du Heng's heart was still not at peace. He took out a few mushrooms and a handful of tender greens from the refrigerator. After he cut the mushrooms and washed the greens for later use, he still couldn't control his desire to look into the inner room.
