Cultivation from the top

Chapter 35 A Bowl of Noodles

Bigu, that is, do not eat five grains, do not eat food, and then only rely on the spiritual energy between heaven and earth to maintain life, which is a common practice content for immortals.

For immortal cultivators in the alchemy stage like the gray-skinned Taoist, the bigu can last for one or two months, and the Nascent Soul realm after the alchemy state, the bigu can last for one to two years, and they don't even need to drink water. Normal life activities can be maintained by the meager water vapor in the air.However, the cultivators of the foundation building stage and the qi training stage cannot reach this level. At most, they can endure one or two meals without eating, which is not much different from ordinary mortals.

However, bigu does not mean that the idea of ​​"wanting to eat" is completely cut off, it just no longer needs to eat a lot of food every day to maintain body consumption like ordinary people.Using a lot of spiritual energy, even a cultivator will feel hungry, not to mention the fact that the gray-skinned Taoist lost a lot of spiritual energy after a short escape and body repair.At this time, the gray-skinned Taoist already felt dizzy for a while, and he was a little wobbly when walking on the road, and he might fall down at any time.

Having lost most of his aura, even if the gray-skinned Taoist is an immortal cultivator, he is no different from a mortal walking on the street.Moreover, the way the gray-skinned Taoist walked slowly while holding on to the fence on the side of the road was no better than ordinary people who occasionally passed by and walked in a hurry.

After walking through a few intersections, the gray-skinned Taoist was so hungry that he was dizzy and unable to use the magic of shrinking the land. With the slow pace of the gray-skinned Taoist now, it is estimated that it will take a few days to return to Kunlun Mountain.However, there are many things about the sect, not only the matter of the ancestor Mu Gongweng has not been dealt with properly, even the normal operation of the sect still has a big loophole after Mu Gongweng showed it.Although there are a few brothers who help to manage the sect together, many things cannot be handled well without the master.

The gray-skinned Taoist, who was already exhausted, was about to give up the idea of ​​going back at this time, and planned to find a place to slowly replenish his spiritual energy.

The brain has already experienced dizziness due to insufficient energy supply.At this moment, the gray-skinned Taoist smelled a fragrance.

Looking up following the scent, the gray-skinned Taoist saw a small noodle shop that was still open late at night, in contrast to other restaurants around that had already closed.

The gray-skinned Taoist moved slowly and pushed open the door of the noodle shop.

As the door was opened, the boss who was doing things in the back kitchen poked his head out and glanced at the door.

"welcome!"

Instead of the boss speaking, it was the recording of the horn at the door.

There was no one else in the store except the boss, so the gray-skinned Taoist sat down at a table.

The menu on the table seems to have just been made, and more than a dozen kinds of pasta are placed on a menu without feeling scattered.

The gray-skinned Taoist touched his pocket, took out a few crumpled banknotes, compared the prices on the menu, and shouted to the boss.

"Boss, a bowl of glutinous rice noodles."

After the boss heard that the gray-skinned Taoist had placed an order, he poked his head out again.

"Just wait."

The gray-skinned Taoist who hasn't eaten out for a long time doesn't have a lot of cash, and he's not interested in the mobile payment that mortals have become popular in recent years. He doesn't even have a mobile phone, so he can only afford it and the price is relatively cheap. , and I ate the glutinous rice noodles once.

The boss finished it quickly, and brought out a bowl of steaming noodles, and placed it in front of the gray-skinned Taoist.A pair of sterilized chopsticks and spoons were also brought up together.

The gray-skinned Taoist picked up the chopsticks, picked up the noodles, first slowly put them into his mouth, and then swallowed the noodles like a vicious dog. He didn't even care whether the noodles in his mouth had been chewed, and hurriedly stuffed the next mouthful of noodles Importing.Although there is no way to instantly absorb the heat brought by the noodles, it is used to replenish the aura lost by the gray-skinned Taoist.But this kind of gobbling at least gave the brain an illusion of fullness, which could temporarily restore some of the physical strength of the originally exhausted gray-skinned Taoist.

The gray-skinned Taoist ate up all the noodles in the bowl, not even letting go of the soup at the bottom of the bowl, and greedily poured it out with a spoon and drank it.

He wiped the residue from his mouth with a napkin, and the bowl of noodles, which was regarded as a supper, had already been eaten by the gray-skinned Taoist.Under the action of stomach acid, the noodles are gradually being digested, and the aura is slowly recovering.

The gray-skinned Taoist leaning back on the chair looked at this small noodle shop, but thought of other things.

Now that he knew the strength of the young master's family, his plan to quickly rebel against the master's family after Mu Gongweng passed away, and even turn this family into a vassal of his own sect, failed.Looking at the young master's appearance, it seems that he still has some role, and he will not be too anxious to get rid of the sect, and there are still opportunities for cooperation.Then the answer is easy to come by.

Still like Mu Gongweng, he worked for the Cheng family and reaped benefits from it.Although being driven by mortals is a very unpleasant thing, the Cheng family will not interfere too much in Kunlun Mountains, and they are almost generous with money.As long as the sect opened its mouth, someone would send bundles of cash to the sect the next day.And the pills and instruments refined by the school will also be taken back by special personnel.This kind of thing is like raising livestock.For a cultivator, this kind of thing can be considered an insult if not a shame.

Although the Cheng family raised Kunlun Mountain like livestock, the benefits brought by the Cheng family were still very attractive.With the help of the Cheng family's funds, Kunlun Mountain already has more than a hundred immortal cultivators, even those who are connected to the alchemy realm. Excluding Mu Gongweng, who passed away recently, there are four more.This was unimaginable in the past.Until now, the gray-skinned Taoist felt that Mu Gongweng had made the right choice in agreeing to that middle-aged man.

His six disciples had already had their spiritual roots abolished, and then they spent some money to get rid of the matter, so that they could use the saying that "disciples acted privately" to push all the incidents on these people, and it was indeed the case.Even if my youngest disciple was taken away by the Shaodong's family for surgery, I might have to explain it in front of my seniors, but this is a trivial matter. After all, the gray-skinned Taoist didn't know why Mu Gongweng would treat the little boy who was just a broken spiritual root. The girl brought him in front of him and asked him to teach him the knowledge of cultivating immortals as a master.Not to mention that the other senior brothers didn't even look straight at the little girl who was regarded as the tail of the crane in the sect.

Now that he has figured things out and his aura has almost recovered, it is best to leave as soon as possible.

The gray-skinned Taoist put the money on the table, said "the money is on the table" to the owner of the back kitchen, then turned around and opened the door, found a secluded corner, began to use the land shrinking spell, and rushed back to Kunlun Mountain.
