Du Heng took two steps at a time and crossed the screen. The first person he saw was Feng Gui holding Jing Nan. Jing Nan leaned on Feng Gui's chest with a pale face and sweat on his head.
Du Heng leaned over and touched Jing Nan's hand and forehead. He asked with concern: "Nan Nan, what happened? Are you okay?" Jing Nan's hands were cold, but his forehead was very warm. The way he leaned his head against Feng Gui's chest reminded Du Heng of the time when he had a tail in the summer.
Du Heng's heart skipped a beat. Nan Nan couldn't choose this time to grow a tail. It was icy and snowy outside, which was not conducive to the cultivation of cultivators. If he grew a tail at this time, not to mention whether the snow-covered small cave could withstand his spiritual fluctuations, he himself would not be able to bear it.
Feng Gui whispered, "He fell asleep due to exhaustion, don't worry. Oh, your master has been rescued."
Hearing this, Du Heng turned his head to look at Wen Qiong on the stone bed. Wen Qiong had changed to a clean and soft mattress. From the cloud pattern on it, it can be seen that it was the spare bedding that Xiaoyu had stored in the storage bag. The stone room was no longer as cold as an ice block. The temperature of the stone room rose after more people came. In addition, Du Heng boiled water in the outer room, so the temperature in the stone room was quite comfortable now.
Wen Qiong's complexion was not as sallow as before. Under the nourishment of spiritual energy, although her lips and teeth were not as rosy as before, at least Du Heng could recognize her.
Du Heng sniffed, and at this moment he felt his hand being gently held by Jing Nan. Du Heng quickly turned his head and looked at Jing Nan: "Nan Nan, do you want to eat something?" Jing Nan didn't even open his eyes, he said tiredly: "... roasted pigeon..."
Du Heng patted his chest and promised: "Okay! You go to sleep first, and when you wake up, the fat pigeon will be roasted!" Jing Nan let go of his hand, and a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth: "Hmm..."
Feng Gui looked around and said, "I want to find a place for Nan Nan to rest." Xuan Yu said, "Let him rest in the cave. I have made the bed in the hut. You can also accompany him to rest for a while. You have overdrawn your spiritual energy just now."
Feng Gui nodded, and he walked towards the wall opposite Wen Qiong's bed while holding Jing Nan. A door appeared on the empty wall, and it was exactly the same as the door that appeared on the back wall of the Saint Temple. Needless to say, this must be Xiaoyu's work.
After Feng Gui and Jing Nan went to the cave to rest, Xuan Yu looked at Xiao Xiao and Tai Shuhong and said, "You two should go and rest as well. Only after a good rest can you better deal with what happens next."
Xiaoxiao was squatting beside Wen Qiong's bed. After hearing this, he jumped down and called Tai Shuhong: "Chirp~" Tai Shuhong thought for a moment and said, "If you need any help, just give me a call."
It can only be said that Tai Shuhong was too naive. As long as he went to Du Heng's simple cave, he would not be able to hear anyone shouting outside. But he had this intention, which was better than anything else.
After Tai Shuhong and Xiaoxiao entered the cave, Xuan Yu patted Du Heng on the shoulder and said, "You can go see Wen Qiong, but she may not wake up now. I'll go outside and tell them about the situation, and by the way, I'll dig a stone chamber for us."
Du Heng nodded: "Yes. Do you want to eat anything? I will make roasted pigeon for Nan Nan later. Xiaoyu, what do you want to eat?"
Nan Nan and Xi Xi went to rest, but Xiao Yu had to continue to work. Du Heng thought that he should make something delicious for Xiao Yu to reward him. During these days in the ruins, Xiao Yu and the others probably didn't get a good rest.
Xuan Yu thought about it seriously, and said, "I want to eat something crunchy and sweet." Du Heng smiled and said, "Okay."
After Xuan Yu left, Du Heng and Wonton were the only ones left in the stone room. Wonton lay beside the casserole, and when he saw Du Heng looking at him, he raised his head and shook his big tail. Du Heng smiled and said, "I'll feed you some fish porridge later."
If Wonton hadn't protected him along the way, Du Heng didn't know how many setbacks he would have encountered.
Wen Qiong lay quietly on the stone bed. Du Heng sat beside the bed and touched her hand. Wen Qiong's hand was small and slightly warm in his hand. Her hand was not soft at all. When he opened her palm, he saw calluses on it.
This is the testimony of Wen Qiong on the road of cultivation. There is a reason why she has transformed from a weak little girl into a big boss in the cultivation world. Xiaoyu and the others said that Wen Qiong is the most hardworking and persistent cultivator they have ever seen.
There are legends about her everywhere in the world of cultivation. Some say that she climbed over the Dongji Mountain by herself, and some say that she was chivalrous and helped the weak... Sect Leader Wen was as steady and reliable as her former male appearance, and people in the world of cultivation loved to ask her for help.
However, in Du Heng's eyes, his master is not as strong as the outside world says. She likes to eat snacks, milk tea, duck necks, chicken wings... As long as Du Heng makes them, she will happily sit down and eat them. She likes colorful little skirts and cute little accessories. Even when eating snacks, she likes to pick those small and cute ones.
She was lively and free-spirited. She could be on good terms with Du Heng at ordinary times, but she would not hold back at all during the practice. When she beat Du Heng, she never cared whether Xiaoyu and the others were around. Even if Xiaoyu and the others looked reluctant, Wen Qiong dared to chase Du Heng around the village with a small branch in her hand for ten laps.
Looking at Wen Qiong's face, Du Heng recalled every moment he had spent with Wen Qiong. Sect Master Wen, who had a strong body and strong bones, was always full of energy. This was the first time Du Heng saw her look so pale and weak.
Wen Qiong's breathing was steady and smooth. Compared with her last breath, she looked much better. Du Heng lifted the quilt with lingering fear and looked at Wen Qiong's legs. A pair of strong and smooth short legs came into his sight.
This was the first time Du Heng saw a girl's legs at such a close distance, but he didn't have any romantic thoughts in his mind. At this moment, he just wanted to reach out and touch Wen Qiong's legs. He saw with his own eyes that the legs were bloody and the bones were broken. From decay to magic, it was not only Jing Nan and the others who paid the price, but how much did Wen Qiong endure?
However, Du Heng still didn't dare to touch it. He carefully tucked the quilt in and sat on the edge of the bed. His eyes were immediately attracted by the jade box inside the bed, and the slender arm was faintly visible in the jade box.
Du Heng's nose felt a little sour, and he whispered, "Master, don't worry, the two sisters will be fine. We still have to go back to Dingkun Sect together... Speaking of which, I haven't seen what Dingkun Sect is like, and I haven't seen the cave chosen by the sister for me. By the way, I also said that I would cook for the brothers and sisters, and they haven't tasted my love meal yet. They will be fine..."
Du Heng became sadder and sadder as he spoke. He held Wen Qiong's hand against his cheek and said, "Master, you must be well." He finally had a master who protected him and brothers and sisters who loved him. How could they just be gone?
Wen Qiong's voice reached Du Heng's ears: "Hey... How can I sleep peacefully when you are nagging like this?" Du Heng looked up in surprise: "Master! You are awake!"
Wen Qiong lay weakly on the bed. She smiled at Du Heng and said, "Evil disciple, you have seen my thick little legs, right?" Du Heng didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "Master, I don't mean anything else. I just want to see your injuries."
Wen Qiong raised her hand and touched Du Heng's hair. She said, "Disciple, your second and fourth sisters can't come back. I only have four disciples left, including you." She tilted her head to look at the jade box beside her. Her voice was full of guilt: "I wish I had moved faster, so I could protect both of them..."
However, Du Heng could imagine how dangerous the situation was without Wen Qiong telling him. Wen Qiong lost both legs. If she had protected her two sisters, she would have died.
Du Heng was speechless. Wen Qiong smiled with tears in her eyes. "During this period, I always saw your two senior sisters standing in front of me when I was drowsy. They asked me to go back and didn't let me follow them. These two evil disciples are usually very respectful to me, but they are not obedient at all in the dream. Not only did they not let me follow them, but they also didn't listen to me. Usually... they are so respectful."
Wen Qiong's tears rolled down, and Du Heng took out a handkerchief with red eyes to wipe her tears. He comforted Wen Qiong feebly: "Senior sister will be fine, they will be fine. Maybe they are trying to get here, you wait for them, they will definitely show up."
Wen Qiong closed her eyes and smiled: "Well, I'll give them some time. I'll wait for them here. As long as they don't come, I won't leave."
In fact, Wen Qiong and Du Heng both understood how terrible the strong wind was. Liu Yuanyuan's arm was torn off by the strong wind at her Nascent Soul stage. The probability of them coming back was too low. If they could come back, they would have come long ago.
Wen Qiong stared at the top of the stone chamber with lifeless eyes. In order to facilitate the treatment of Wen Qiong, Jing Nan and his team installed a large night-shining pearl on the top of the stone chamber.
Wen Qiong stared at the night-shining pearl: "It was the Dragon King and the Fox God who saved me again, right?" Du Heng replied: "Yes, that's right."
Wen Qiong smiled a smile that was uglier than crying: "They always see me at my most miserable state. What kind of evil fate is this? Thank them for me."
Du Heng comforted her: "Your quick recovery will be the best way to thank them."
Wen Qiong was silent for a while and then said, "Is your senior brother outside?"
Du Heng nodded: "Yes, Master, do you want to see the eldest brother? I will call him over right away."
Wen Qiong nodded: "Yeah."
Du Heng quickly stood up and ran out of the stone chamber, shouting as he ran. He almost tripped over his own feet because he ran too fast: "Big Brother! Big Brother! Master has woken up and wants to see you!"
Wen Qiong looked at Du Heng's anxious back, she smiled, and then hugged the jade box on the bed tightly.
Qi Yushu had been living in the same stone chamber with Wen Qiong before, and Wen Qiong's stone chamber was dug out by him. During this period, he also took care of Wen Qiong without taking off his clothes. If Qi Yushu and the others had not used spiritual energy to warm Wen Qiong, I'm afraid Wen Qiong would have died long ago.
At this moment, Qi Yushu and Xuan Yu were digging a stone chamber near the cave entrance. While helping, Qi Yushu looked at the disciples of Shenxu Palace next door with concern. The disciples of Shenxu Palace were gathering together to hold a criticism meeting, and the targets of the criticism were their second elder Su Zhan and fourth elder Jiang Shangzhou.
No one had ever dreamed that Su Zhan and his gang would do such a terrible thing as murdering their fellow disciples in order to take over Tai Shuhong's body. What's even more terrifying is that Jiang Shangzhou and Ning Pingxi were both accomplices.
Ye Wenqiu told Ji Qingyan everything they had done. At that moment, Ji Qingyan's cold air was seeping out, freezing the monks sitting around him so much that their bones ached.
Jiang Shangzhou had a blank expression. Just now, his position as an elder had been taken away by Ji Qingyan. After leaving the ruins, he would go to the Punishment Hall to receive 500 lashes, and then be locked up in the dungeon of the Punishment Hall for 800 years. Fortunately, he had no lives on his hands. If he had, Shenxu Palace would definitely not want him.
It was hard to describe how he felt. Jiang Shangzhou only felt that his body was cold and painful. He still remembered that when his master was alive, he said to him that it was not terrible to make mistakes, but knowing the mistakes and improving them was the best thing. However, he was really scared at the moment, and he didn't even know how to change himself.
Jiang Shangzhou wanted to find a place to hide when his fellow disciples looked at him with strange eyes. In the past, they looked at him with respect, but now they looked at him with contempt. Jiang Shangzhou suddenly envied Su Zhan for self-destructing, but he did not have Su Zhan's courage.
352
When Du Heng ran out shouting, all the disciples of Shenxu Palace looked at him. Ye Wenqiu was quite sensible and did not tell anyone that Du Heng was a saint, so everyone looked at Du Heng in a normal way.
Du Heng met twenty or thirty pairs of eyes at once. He scratched his head guiltily: "Ah, sorry, you guys continue. Senior Brother, come quickly! Master is awake!"
Qi Yushu threw the things in his hand and ran inside: "I am coming!" Qi Yushu's voice was extremely excited and cheerful. He didn't expect that the casual cultivator Nan Jing really rescued his master. He wanted to kowtow to Nan Jing!
Just as Du Heng was about to go back to the stone chamber with Qi Yushu, Xuan Yu's voice floated over from outside: "Du Heng, come and take a look at this stone chamber. Is there anything else that needs to be changed?"
Du Heng responded, and Qi Yushu smiled and said to Du Heng: "Go ahead, little brother. I'll take care of Master."
Du Heng replied, "Hey, I'll come right after I take a look. I still have to make fish porridge for Master." Du Heng still remembered the fish soup he put in the casserole! It was inconvenient without Xiaoxiao. Usually, Xiaoxiao would just watch the pot.
Du Heng ran to the outermost stone chamber under the gaze of the monks of Shenxu Palace. The stone chamber had already begun to take shape. Unlike other monks who dug as far as possible inside to facilitate heating, Xuan Yu dug a stone chamber right next to the cave entrance. He also opened a window on the wall. As soon as Du Heng entered the stone chamber, he felt that his vision suddenly became clear. Of course, it was really cold.
He reached out and touched the window sill on the wall: "This window... is great." Through the window, you can see a snowy field, and at the end of the snowy field are continuous mountains. Seeing this scene, the illiterate Du Heng shook his head and said: "The window contains the eternal snow of the Western Hills~"
Xuan Yu glanced sideways and smiled: "Good poem!"
Du Heng said embarrassedly: "It was not written by me, but by a poet from my hometown. By the way, Xiaoyu, will we stay here for a long time?"
Xuan Yu said: "I think so. There are still many lost monks in the ruins. If possible, I want to find them." Du Heng nodded repeatedly: "Okay."
He paused and said sadly: "Master is very sad. My two senior sisters got into trouble under her nose. She blames herself very much. If possible, can you help find my two senior sisters?" Xuan Yu responded: "Yes, I will do my best."
Du Heng leaned on the windowsill and watched Xuan Yu excavating the stone chamber. The hard stone became as soft as tofu in Xuan Yu's hands. A flash of inspiration flashed in Xuan Yu's hands, and the small pieces of rocks flew out of the window. The rocks fell far away, almost to the other side of the snowfield.
Du Heng asked in confusion: "Xiaoyu, why don't you just throw the rocks down the mountain?"
Xuan Yu said: "When I was digging the stone chamber just now, a cultivator told me that there were monsters in this cave. They deliberately chose this cave that was difficult for monsters to reach as a shelter. They always carefully sent the rocks far away when digging the stone chamber to prevent the monsters from climbing into the cave by stepping on the piled stones."
Du Heng was surprised and said, "There are monsters here?!" He thought of the monster army that was as dense as boiling water. If the monsters in the ruins gathered together and besieged this place, wouldn't they have no place to escape?
Xuan Yu said slowly, "Yes, but the monsters here are not a threat to us for now. In the past few months, they have fought off several monster attacks. They all said that the temperature in Xue Shen Dong Tian has been rising slowly during this period. I think when spring comes and the flowers bloom, these monsters will have enough food and will not keep a close eye on people."
Du Heng nodded: "Yes, that must be the case. I'll go back and cook some fish porridge, and then make you a peach cake, okay?" Xuan Yu tilted his head slightly: "Peach cake?" This was something he had never heard of before. Xuan Yu thought about it and nodded: "Okay."
As long as Du Heng puts his heart into making things, the taste won’t be too bad.
After getting Xuan Yu's nod, Du Heng came out of the stone chamber humming a tune. When he saw the disciples of Shenxu Palace with extremely low air pressure, the tune immediately turned into the sound of clearing his throat.
The disciples of Shenxu Palace couldn't even raise their heads. Ye Wenqiu and Ji Qingyan had a solemn expression on their faces, while the other had a blank expression on their faces. The temperature in the cave was not high to begin with, and after being cooled down by Ji Qingyan, Du Heng couldn't help but shiver.
To ease the atmosphere, Du Heng said with a smile: "What do you want to eat tonight? You can order some food."
The disciples of Shenxu Palace hung their heads even lower, but the disciples of Dingkun Sect and Tianyi Sect nearby were not polite: "Really?! Can we have some hot food to warm our bodies?!"
"I want to eat the spicy chicken made by Senior Brother Du!"
“Sour fish!”
"I don't ask for anything, as long as there's food to eat!"
Du Heng laughed and said, "Okay! I'll go look through the fridge and make some warm dishes for everyone!"
Xuan Yu's voice floated over: "I want to help Du Heng, is there any Taoist friend willing to help chisel the stone chamber?"
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw more than a dozen cultivators walking towards Xuan Yu's stone chamber: "Here they come! Daoist Yuxuan, go and get busy. We will take care of this place."
Hearing that there was something delicious, everyone's emotions were aroused. The disciples of Shenxu Palace were infected by the excitement of the cultivators from the other two sects, and their consciousness could not help but drift towards Du Heng's kitchen.
Ji Qingyan saw that there was no point in continuing the meeting, so he said in a deep voice: "We can discuss Jiang Shangzhou's matter in detail when we get to the sect. Let's adjourn the meeting first."
When Du Heng returned to the stone chamber, his fish soup was cooked to perfection. The milky white fish soup had no fishy smell at all, and just looking at it made people want to drink a bowl of it.
Du Heng scooped up some fish soup and tasted it. The soup was a little salty, but that was exactly what he wanted. Because he would add the washed spiritual rice to the soup next!
When he used a strainer to remove the fish bones from the soup pot, the fish meat attached to the bones was boiled and melted, and only a few pieces of fish meat remained on the bones. Du Heng put the fish bones aside, because his glutinous rice cakes loved to chew on such bones.
There was a layer of oil floating on the fish soup, and Du Heng skimmed off some of it. After he poured the spiritual rice into the fish soup and stirred it a little, the fish soup was mixed with the fragrance of the spiritual rice. At this time, the smell of the fish soup in the air was much lighter, but it was even more tempting.
Wen Qiong was whispering something to Qi Yushu in the inner room. Du Heng wanted her to drink the fish porridge quickly, so he activated the formation next to the casserole. As the formation flickered, he poured the sliced mushrooms into the pot, letting them roll with the rice in the pot. The rice grains expanded and cracked under Du Heng's gaze, and the milky white porridge soup gradually became thicker.
When the rice in the pot was about to melt, Xuan Yu walked into the stone room. He looked at the porridge in the pot and asked, "Mushroom porridge?"
Du Heng smiled and said, "Mushroom fish fillet and vegetable porridge. It's delicious just by blanching the fish fillet and vegetables. It doesn't need to be cooked for a long time. Master and Nan Nan are not in good health. This way, there are both meat and vegetables and the taste is light. Everyone can drink a few bowls."
Xuan Yu casually handed the large bowl of fish fillets to Du Heng: "You are more research-oriented."
Du Heng smiled and said, "It will be ready in a while. My Xiaoyu will have a bowl first." Xuan Yu looked at Du Heng deeply and nodded seriously, "Okay."
Just as Du Heng said, the fish fillet turned from slightly transparent to milky white after being blanched in the boiling porridge. Du Heng turned off the formation and extinguished the flame under the casserole. The temperature in the pot was enough to blanch the fish fillet and vegetables.
The fish slices with bright yellow ginger shreds curled slightly in the porridge, and the brown mushrooms and green vegetables dotted it. Scooping up a large bowl, the bowl seemed to contain the universe.
Du Heng first served Xuan Yu a bowl and handed it to him: "Try it first." Xuan Yu sniffed the fragrance: "You know it tastes delicious without tasting it."
Xuan Yu's words were not just compliments. You have to know that the spiritual consciousness of the monks in the cave was about to burst the door of the stone chamber. Xuan Yu felt that his back was stabbed by dozens of spiritual consciousnesses. He drank a mouthful of fish fillet porridge leisurely and said slowly: "The saltiness is just right, the porridge is thick and the rice is fragrant, the fish fillet is tender and smooth, and it tastes good."
The monks outside the door were so anxious that they wanted to rush in and snatch the porridge from Xuan Yu's hand to drink it. However, they still had to be proud and could not do such a thing that would lower their status.
Xuan Yu scooped a spoonful of fish fillet and handed it to Du Heng who was serving porridge: "Try it too."
Du Heng opened his mouth and wrapped the fish fillet in his mouth. The hot temperature in his mouth made Du Heng feel real. He had encountered too many things in the past few days, and those confused, painful and helpless emotions were gradually fading away.
Du Heng smacked his lips. The slight peppery taste on the fish fillet not only did not take away the deliciousness, but made the taste of the fish fillet even richer.
Du Heng narrowed his eyes: "I want more." Xuan Yu smiled and scooped him a spoonful: "Yeah, okay."
Du Heng said to Xuan Yu while tasting the fish fillet, "I see the stone chamber outside is almost finished. We'll move the stove outside later so as not to disturb Master and the others' rest. We'll make stewed beef brisket with radish, pickled fish and spicy chicken cubes, and stir-fry spicy and sour chicken head with pickled stalks. This way, all the Taoist friends in the cave can have hot meals."
Xuan Yu nodded: "Okay, if that's the case, don't make peach cakes today. It's not too late to make them when you have time. You are already tired enough, and there are still many small desserts in the refrigerator. I'll eat those first."
Du Heng felt a little guilty: "But..." Xuan Yu smiled and said, "There is still a long way to go, don't worry about this moment. Go and give Xiao Qiong some porridge, I'll move the stove outside."
Du Heng replied, "Okay, put the remaining porridge in the refrigerator for Nannan and the others." Xuan Yu looked back and smiled, "Okay." Du Heng stared at him again in a useless way. The more he looked at his Xiaoyu, the more beautiful she looked!
Just as Du Heng was about to enter the inner room with the tray, Xuan Yu scooped a large spoonful of fish porridge and handed it to Du Heng with a smile on his face: "I'll serve you a bowl and put it here. We are all too tired. Not only you need to rest, but everyone needs it."
Du Heng felt warm in his heart. He nodded while holding a bowl of fish porridge: "Yeah."
When Du Heng walked past the screen and entered the inner room, he heard Wen Qiong say, "Yushu, although your cultivation is not the highest, you are the one that I can trust the most." Qi Yushu's eyes were red, "Master, I understand."
Du Heng smiled and said, "Master, are you hungry? Would you like some porridge?"
Seeing Du Heng coming in, Wen Qiong and Qi Yushu looked at Du Heng. When they saw the bowl of porridge in Du Heng's hand, Wen Qiong changed her serious expression and said to Qi Yushu, "Help me up, I can drink three bowls!"
353
Wen Qiong actually drank three bowls, and Qi Yushu sat in front of the bed, not knowing whether to laugh or cry. Du Heng greeted Qi Yushu enthusiastically: "Brother, would you like some porridge? There's still plenty in the pot!"
Qi Yushu smiled and said, "No, I know your cooking skills. It's not that I'm being polite, but I want to save some space for the spicy chicken."
Wen Qiong howled, and raised her face from the porridge bowl. The vegetables stuck on her cheeks fell onto the tray: "Spicy chicken?"
Qi Yushu smiled and said, "There are also pickled fish and stewed beef with radish. I just heard the recipes that Junior Brother and his Taoist partner talked about."
Wen Qiong struggled and said, "Help me up. I need to digest my food and save some room for the pickled fish!"
Qi Yushu burst out laughing: "Master, you just looked like you were planning your funeral, but now you're thinking about pickled fish again?"
Wen Qiong hummed: "Finding your junior sister is important, and eating well is also important.
Without a strong body, how can you find your apprentice sister?"
Du Heng asked curiously: "Brother, what did the master just say to you?"
Qi Yushu said, "Master said that she wants to find the two junior sisters in the ruins, alive or dead. Master will not leave the ruins if she can't find them."
Wen Qiong scraped the last mouthful of porridge in the bowl into her mouth. She held the bowl and said seriously, "Yuanyuan and Jianing are afraid of the cold and the dark respectively. I have to get better quickly so that I can find them. That day I held their hands and led them into the mountain gate. At that time, I told them that Dingkun Sect was their home. No matter what, I will take them back."
Du Heng and Qi Yushu's eyes turned red again after hearing this. As Liu Yuanyuan and He Jianing's senior and junior brothers, they could do nothing. Du Heng, in particular, felt particularly guilty. He could not share the worries of his master, nor could he help his senior brothers and sisters solve their problems. Compared with them, Du Heng felt ashamed and humbled.
Suddenly, there was a hand on Du Heng's head. He looked up in surprise and saw Qi Yushu looking at him helplessly: "Little Junior Brother, are you imagining nonsense? Master said that you love to belittle yourself."
Du Heng lowered his head and said embarrassedly: "I feel like I can't do anything well."
Qi Yushu comforted him, "What nonsense are you talking about?"
Wen Qiong smiled and said, "Don't look down on yourself like this. You should comfort yourself like this: Even if you are a pile of shit, you are the cutest one! Even if you are a pile of shit, the master will take you with him! If you think about it this way, you should be happy."
Du Heng didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Master, are you praising me or scolding me?"
In the evening, the weather outside changed. The strong wind blew heavy snow outside the cave. Looking out from the window, the visibility was less than two or three feet. Fortunately, the cave entrance and window were blocked by formations. Even though it was snowing outside, the cave was still warm.
This was the warmest evening the monks had ever had since they came to the small cave in the snow. They gathered in groups of three or five, holding large bowls in their hands and ate delicious meals. Their cold bodies slowly warmed up with the nourishment of the food.
Although spiritual energy can dispel the severe cold, it is not inexhaustible. The monks have been freezing in the small cave for four or five months. Before Du Heng came, they didn't even dare to use spiritual energy to keep warm. They were afraid that the supply of elixirs would run out and the spiritual energy would be exhausted. If the monsters attacked them at that time, they would have no way out.
This was the reason why Du Heng saw them all with blank eyes and listless looks. Now they were able to eat a bowl of hot food, and they were so moved that they wanted to cry. The food tasted so delicious that not only did it warm their bodies after eating it, but their spiritual energy was also recovering rapidly.
The outermost room of the newly carved stone chamber became the dining hall for the monks. Du Heng placed a stone table inside, on which were placed the prepared meals. Du Heng stood behind the stone table and served the monks the meals. At this moment, he was glad that he had packed up all the pots, pans, and bowls in the dining hall when he entered the ruins.
After Du Heng prepared meals for all the monks who came to eat, he found that Jiang Shangzhou and his companions were not there. He asked the disciples of Shenxu Palace in confusion, "Where are Elder Ye and his companions?"
The monk replied, "There was a snowstorm outside, and the master and his men were worried about a sneak attack from monsters, so they went out to stand guard."
Du Heng nodded thoughtfully. There was a reason why Shenxu Palace could become the largest sect in the world of cultivation. Ye Wenqiu and his people were really responsible, completely different from the profit-seeking and selfish high-level people in the novels he had read before.
After dinner, the monks in the cave found that their cultivation was improving. I don't know if it was an illusion, but the food they ate was more effective than the pills they took. After dinner, four or five monks had an epiphany!
Everyone thought it was great that Du Heng could come to the ruins. Who said that the God of Cooking was useless? Isn't this a wonderful use? They agreed that when the weather cleared up tomorrow, they would go hunting in the mountains and forests to give Du Heng a meal!
Du Heng was completely unaware of the monks' private plans. He was so tired that he fell asleep immediately after washing up.
He slept so soundly that he didn't even have any dreams. When he woke up, it was already the next morning.
Du Heng felt refreshed after waking up. He turned around and saw that Xuan Yu was no longer in bed. Du Heng slowly got up from the stone bed and walked to the cave entrance. The fresh air hit him and made him shiver.
At this time, the snowstorm outside had stopped. Standing at the entrance of the cave and looking out, a world covered in silver suddenly appeared before my eyes.
The monks in the cave were stimulated by something. They flew up on their swords early in the morning and patrolled the small cave. Looking at the gorgeous spiritual light in the sky, Du Heng stretched his body and said, "Everyone is really hardworking..."
The snowfield in front of me was pure white, without even a footprint on it.
Du Heng sighed: "It's so beautiful..." This is the beautiful snow scene in the dream!
However, before he finished the last word, a ball of golden light suddenly flew out from beside Du Heng: "Chiu~~" He looked closely, wasn't that Xiaoxiao? !
Xiaoxiao happily threw himself onto the snowy field and rolled around, leaving traces of his movements on the snow: "Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh~"
Du Heng paused, the beautiful scene was ruined! The snow was incomplete! He wanted to grab Xiaoxiao and take a couple of photos!
Feng Gui stood at the entrance of the cave and stretched. "Ah, the weather is really nice. This weather is really suitable for hunting. Ah, have they started yet?"
Jing Nan yawned listlessly: "Morning..."
Du Heng turned his head and looked at the two of them quietly: "The sun rose from the west?" At this time of the day, these two people would definitely not have gotten up!
Feng Gui scratched his ears seriously, "It's snowing heavily, isn't it? Bring the kids out to broaden their horizons. Play in the snow, have snowball fights, slide down the slide~ Children are cute only when they are happy and active, right?"
Du Heng looked down at Xiaoxiao who was playing happily in the snow. He thought that he must have a strange look on his face. At this moment, he really wanted to open Feng Gui's head to see if he had water in his brain to say such inappropriate words?
In the past, if Xiaoxiao played for a while longer, Fenggui would scold him for being useless. If Xiaoxiao didn't read for a few days, Fenggui would scold him until he cried. If Du Heng hadn't been used to seeing this uncle and nephew love and hate each other, he would really think Fenggui was a good person.
He actually took the initiative to bring Xiaoxiao out to play today? Was there a trick? Du Heng began to worry about Xiaoxiao. Xiaoxiao must not fall into Feng Gui's trap. If she gets her butt swollen, she will cry for a long time!
Jing Nan seemed to see Du Heng's worry. He patted Du Heng's shoulder happily and said, "Since the past two days, there has been more than one child in our family, Xiaoxiao. Have you forgotten? Come on, Xiao Yuyao! Come on!"
Little Feather? Du Heng suddenly thought of Tai Shuhong. To be honest, Tai Shuhong only showed his demon form once. Usually he would transform into a cool human form. Most of the time, Du Heng didn't remember that he was actually a child.
Following Jing Nan's call, Du Heng turned his head and looked towards the cave.

If that wasn't Tai Shuhong's demon form, then what was it? !
Feng Gui said calmly: "As a child of the Feather Clan, Little Feather's childhood is incomplete."
That bitch Su Zhan turned a good child into a vessel. Eight hundred years old is the age when a child should be able to have fun, but Tai Shuhong is shy and cold. Feng Gui felt upset when he saw this. What a good seedling!
It's just that his temper is not good. How can he inherit his position as the demon god and intimidate those bastards of the Feather Clan in the future? !
Feng Gui and Jing Nan hit it off immediately. They both decided to make Tai Shuhong become lively and cheerful!
Jing Nan echoed: "A childhood that has never caught bugs, played in the snow, or been chased by parents with a stick is incomplete."
Du Heng was sweating profusely: ...Are these two crazy? Now they are not torturing Xiaoxiao, but to torturing Taishuhong instead?

Gay friend: Even if you are shit, you are the cutest shit in the world!
Old Cat: ...Thank you, I feel comforted.
