Chapter 218 Ready to Go The ghost scholar has been listening to this until now, in...
The ghost scholar had been listening until now. After everyone stopped talking, he hesitated for a moment and asked, "I wonder if Shopkeeper Jin wanted to say something just now?" The ghost scholar noticed that Shopkeeper Jin wanted to say something but stopped talking. For some reason, he gave up and instead brought up the issue of Hecun's strength.
The ghost scholar wanted to know what the other party was asking.
Ye Lu and the other two attached great importance to Manager Jin's opinion.
Shopkeeper Jin sighed. He didn't expect that his hesitation just now would be seen. He hesitated for a moment, but decided to tell the truth. He said, "I originally wanted to ask if the banquet should have a more impressive strange food besides the Qingxin Peach. After all, an exceptionally good banquet must have a primary and secondary distinction. The better the strange food is, the better the Qingxin Peach will be."
"Now think about it, it's not necessary. After all, Lord Chongshan also has a lot of excellent strange food, which is enough for the banquet." Shopkeeper Jin explained why he didn't mention it halfway just now.
As for why Shopkeeper Jin didn't mention the strange food that Hecun knew about, those strange foods were indeed good, but they were still a long way from what Shopkeeper Jin required.
Ye Lu and the others had been listening to the conversation between the Ghost Scholar and Shopkeeper Jin. When the Ghost Scholar suddenly spoke, they were stunned. But when he finished speaking, including Fourth Uncle He, they all looked enlightened. So that was the case.
Shopkeeper Jin’s consideration is quite correct.
The name of the feast cannot just mean a strange meal for Qing Xin Tao.
Fourth Uncle He blinked his eyes and smiled for the first time.
It was only then that Manager Jin noticed that the person in charge of He Village had slightly drooping eyes when he smiled, and he looked steady and reassuring when he smiled, but this group of people didn't seem to be worried at all.
Ye Lu raised his eyebrows, chuckled and said, "Since I have already said that He Cun will participate, then the strange food must also be prepared by He Cun." If he wants to prepare it, the group of village elders will probably be the first to disagree.
It’s not like Hecun doesn’t have any good stuff hidden in his box.
"Hmm?" Shopkeeper Jin hummed in surprise.
Fourth Uncle He pondered for a moment and said, "If it is just what Manager Jin said, then there are indeed some weird foods in the village that meet the requirements."
Fourth Uncle He turned his head and looked at Ye Lu, saying, "The yellow-skinned fruits have been ripe recently. I had been planning to keep them for a while, at least until you guys, Lu, came back. I didn't expect to use them this time." This was his opening explanation.
As a result, the share of kumquats originally prepared for Jinshi Qunling will have to be reserved for the next batch.
This was another strange food that he had never heard of. Shopkeeper Jin sighed slightly in his heart. He quickly went through it in his mind, but did not think of the news about a strange plant with yellow-skinned fruit in He Village. Now, this He Si said it openly, which meant that at least the origin of this strange plant was correct.
I'm afraid it's a strange plant that Hecun has been hiding in the dark.
This He Village doesn't look like a small force that has just escaped from famine!
Shopkeeper Jin has gained some insights this time, and he couldn't help but feel deeply moved.
Anyone with some connections knows He Cun's origins. After all, when He Cun was fleeing famine, he encountered the Great Drought Mother, and on the way he also met the Zhuhui Chamber of Commerce. He never avoided people along the way, and everyone saw it. They also knew that when He Cun first came to the Forbidden Stone Mountains, he was penniless, and only the strange weapons and plants he brought with him were worth some money.
Not long after that, Hecun settled down in the Jinshi Mountains. Not only that, he was also alive and well.
At present, there is still quite a bit of capital.
"Do you know the function of this yellow-skinned fruit?" Shopkeeper Jin's heart was in turmoil, but he still looked kind and asked with a smile.
He Sijiu heard this and patiently explained, "There's nothing inconvenient about this. The reason why outsiders don't know about the yellow-skinned fruit is because we plan to leave this strange food for the surrounding forces to share. The time is too short, and the amount produced by the strange plants is already small, so there's no need to tell others about it."
Indeed, this is the attitude of most forces towards the strange food they own, Shopkeeper Jin nodded.
There is no need to do so. Anyway, good food can be easily replaced.
"The yellow peel fruit has the function of clearing away heat and removing toxins, and it focuses on removing toxins from the internal organs. The only drawback is that it is most useful for children, but it is not very effective for older people."
"Life span?" Shopkeeper Jin reacted instantly after hearing what Fourth Uncle He said. It sounds simple to remove toxins from the internal organs, but in fact, you can figure it out if you think about it.
This is related to life span.
For those who practice cultivation, cleansing the meridians and marrow is also, in a sense, removing toxins.
Fourth Uncle He nodded and said, "But the level of this strange plant is only Huangli level, and the yellow-skinned fruit is not a precious strange plant. It can only be useful for children with strange food talents. The talent is average. Even if it is lucky enough to be promoted to Qingyou level in the future, it is estimated that it will not improve much."
"If that's the case, I'm overthinking it..." Shopkeeper Jin was able to remain calm because he had experienced a shock before, but in fact, he had already remembered it clearly in his heart.
Is this strange food that can prolong life no longer precious if it is at the Huangli level?
Shopkeeper Jin guarantees that this yellow-skinned fruit will attract a lot of people's attention at the banquet.
"Then there is nothing else to do?" After Uncle He Qi finished speaking, he first glanced at Shopkeeper Jin to see that there was no unusual expression on the opposite side. He then carefully recalled his return to the city and found that there was nothing missing.
"There is also the issue of the security of the escort team." After thinking about it and making sure there was nothing missing, Uncle He Qi concluded, "I'll talk to He Lan when the time comes."
"Aunt Lan... do you need help?" If Ye Lu said this in front of Helan, he would definitely not dare to say it. Helan really dared to beat him up. The key point was that Aunt Helan's talent was more bizarre than other talents. Although it was called a medium talent, it was actually not much worse than some high-level talents.
What Ye Lu said could easily be misunderstood as distrust of Helan.
Helan had to plant the three brothers in the ground to wake their heads.
So Ye Lu was a little hesitant when he spoke.
Uncle He Qi, who was not far away from him, had not said a word. When he heard his words, he chuckled. Of course, his voice was very low and only Ye Lu who was standing next to him could hear it.
Fourth Uncle He first raised his head and glanced at his nephew. He didn't expect that his nephew would become bolder after going out. He reminded him in a friendly way, "Helan has made a breakthrough."
It's okay to say this in front of them, but don't really say that you are not afraid of death.
The key is that Helan easily vents his anger on them, always saying that his nephew is so noisy and his uncle is not a good person either.
"............" He had forgotten how unreasonable Aunt Lan's talent was. Ye Lu sighed helplessly in his heart, and was glad that he did not say in front of Helan that Aunt Lan, who was at the intermediate Qingyou level, might be able to fight against ordinary Xueyuan-level tricksters, and the guard team was more than enough.
Ye Lu spread his hands and said very bluntly: "Then I don't have anything to say."
Fourth Uncle He nodded, and he roughly understood what was going on in his mind. He watched Ye Lu leave. The ghost scholar stayed where he was, and he would take care of the rest of the matters later.
Shopkeeper Jin and his companions did not go up the mountain. Everyone could see that there were many secrets on the mountain, so Shopkeeper Jin would naturally not take the initiative to go up. Fortunately, there was still room in He Village. At worst, there was still Liucao Village nearby, which was big enough to accommodate them all.
Everyone was busy and orderly preparing for the scheduled banquet date.
Time? It passes by little by little.
Soon, some treacherous warriors arrived at the Forbidden Stone Mountains according to the information they had obtained.
The first person to arrive at the Forbidden Stone Ridge was not someone else.
It's the swordsman.
He was accompanied by a pair of grandparents and grandchildren.
