I rely on farming to transform the world of cultivation
Chapter 20 Blood Sacrifice
"Xiaoyun, why are you chatting with the guests?"
Just when Fang Chen was about to ask further, the shopkeeper whom Fang Chen met when he came to buy Lingcan and Lingzhi came down from upstairs, followed by someone whom Fang Chen didn't recognize.
This man looked to be about thirty years old, and his clothes were quite simple. When he saw Fang Chen looking at him, he smiled and nodded.
Fang Chen smiled back and looked away politely.
"Fellow Taoist Fang Chen plans to retire to the mortal world. He came to say goodbye to me today and had a chat with him."
Zhou Xingyun did not mention the specific content of the conversation between the two people. That was not a topic suitable to be brought up in public.
"Oh, it's him."
The shopkeeper then looked at Fang Chen, remembering that he had spent a lot of money here, his eyes became softer, and he nodded to him.
Then he looked at Zhou Xingyun and said, "Since it is your friend who wants to retire, I will give you half a day off and say goodbye properly."
After saying that, he sighed again, presumably because he was worried about the current situation in the city.
"Really? Thank you so much, shopkeeper." Zhou Xingyun quickly bowed to the shopkeeper, and then waved to Fang Chen: "Let's go to Zhou's Restaurant to bid farewell to you."
"I accept your wishes, but there is no need to go to such great lengths."
Fang Chen planned to directly reject Zhou Xingyun's kindness, but he did not expect that the other party would be so enthusiastic.
"It doesn't matter. I'm leaving Fangshi next month anyway, so let's just get together before leaving."
Now that Zhou Xingyun said so, Fang Chen couldn't refuse for a while and followed him to Zhou's Restaurant.
Along the way, they chatted about their feelings about the path of spiritual practice, and the two of them soon reached their destination.
"Welcome Guang - isn't this Xiaoyun? Why don't you work at Lianyunge and come to a restaurant?"
The guy who came over was a middle-aged man with a Chinese character face. He looked very similar to Zhou Xingyun. When he saw Zhou Xingyun appearing here, he was stunned for a moment and then asked.
"Third uncle, one of my former big clients was going to retire to the mortal world. He came to say goodbye to me. The shopkeeper gave me half a day off and asked me to practice for him."
Facing his relatives, Zhou Xingyun did not say the word friend, but called Fang Chen a big customer.
This is true. Fang Chen had consumed more than two thousand spirit stones under his guidance before, which was considered a big deal among casual cultivators.
Zhou Xingyun also received a not-so-low commission.
"Well, it just so happens that the box by the window on the second floor is still empty. You go up and wait. I'll ask the chef to prepare some food for you."
After understanding the situation, Zhou Xingyun's third uncle just nodded and asked them to go to the private room on the second floor without asking any questions.
"Thank you very much, Uncle San."
Zhou Xingyun bowed politely, Fang Chen followed suit, and then the two of them entered the private room on the second floor together.
"This week's restaurant turned out to be your family's property. I heard from my parents that they came here to celebrate when I was one month old."
I don't know why, but every time Fang Chen mentions his original parents, there is always a feeling of sadness in his body unconsciously.
So much so that a touch of sadness can be read on his face.
"Well, our Zhou family has some spiritual food inheritance, so we opened this restaurant in Fangshi."
Of course Zhou Xingyun could notice the change in Fang Chen's expression, but he did not continue the topic and instead talked about the Zhou family restaurant.
"That's it."
Fang Chen nodded. The so-called spiritual food is to use special cooking methods to stimulate all the spiritual energy inside some ingredients that originally contain spiritual energy, making it easier for monks to absorb it.
The spiritual silkworm chrysalis and spiritual rice he ate twice can also be regarded as a type of spiritual food, but it was relatively rough and did not utilize the ingredients to the fullest.
While waiting for the food to be served, the two of them chatted about some interesting things that happened in the city, mainly Zhou Xingyun told them and Fang Chen listened.
Although it was some daily trivial matters, it also made Fang Chen understand a little more about the world of cultivation.
After chatting for a few minutes, Zhou Xingyun's third uncle first brought a plate of peanuts, a pot of spiritual wine and two cups.
After his third uncle left, Fang Chen curiously released his spiritual thoughts and touched the peanuts on the plate.
Name: Diling beans
Features: Aura affinity
…
"Can even the spiritual plants that are made into dishes see their characteristics?"
Fang Chen couldn't help but think about it in his mind and had some more guesses about his abilities.
As for the name Diling Bean, he did remember that peanuts were also called Didou. It made sense for the peanut with aura to be called Diling Bean.
"My third uncle still understands me. Today we will have a few drinks together no matter what. We have agreed in advance that we are not allowed to use magic to cheat. We will not return until we are drunk."
Zhou Xingyun hadn't reached the fifth level of Qi training yet, so he couldn't feel the fluctuations of spiritual thoughts. He reached out and picked up the wine glass and started pouring wine.
"OK."
Fang Chen nodded in response. No matter in his previous life or in this life, he actually didn't like drinking very much, but it didn't hurt to drink a little with his friends.
After taking the wine glass, Fang Chen took the lead and raised his head: "Thank you, brother Xingyun, for the hospitality. I'll toast you first."
For a while, they drank and drank.
As the subsequent dishes were served, Fang Chen was extremely satisfied with the food.
I don't know if it is because of the spiritual energy contained in it, but the original flavor of these ingredients is also greatly stimulated. Even if not much seasoning is used, you can still taste the rich layered taste.
"In comparison, Bigu Pill is simply a scumbag!"
Fang Chen also complained bitterly in his heart. Although Bigu Dan was very hungry, the taste was not as good as the compressed biscuits in his previous life.
He also decided to find a few skilled craftsmen who specialized in spiritual food in the future. Anyway, he had enough spiritual plants and other materials here, so he was not afraid of waste.
He could even give the seasonings of the mortal world the characteristics of spiritual affinity, which would make the spiritual food more delicious.
The purpose of cultivating immortals is to gain strength and increase lifespan, but if you only have strength and lifespan but do not eat or drink every day and practice hard, what is the point of living?
Perhaps under the stimulation of alcohol, Fang Chen thought a lot, and these thoughts also affected his attitude towards cultivation later.
But these are all later stories. Just as the two of them were drinking to their heart's content, Zhou Xingyun's eyes suddenly stared out the window.
"What are you looking at?"
Fang Chen, who was affected by alcohol, blurted out without thinking, and also looked out the window curiously.
What he saw was a piece of red.
Like blood, it stained half of the sky.
"Dang--"
Zhou Xingyun's fist instantly hit the table.
"What's going on?"
The huge noise made Fang Chen realize that something was wrong, and he was much more sober and asked quickly.
"Damn, the two major sects are sacrificing blood to mortals again!"
When Zhou Xingyun said the last four words, he paused and almost gnashed his teeth.
"Sacrificing blood to mortals?!"
Hearing these four words, Fang Chen widened his eyes, straightened his back, and even raised the pitch of his voice by an octave. He ignored the previous agreement and directly used his magic power to dispel the alcohol.
"That's right. In recent years, there have been natural disasters and man-made disasters in the mortal world. Many mortals kneel in front of the mountain gates of the two major sects and beg them for help, but how can the two major sects care about these things? It's quite interesting to watch these mortals kneel every day. A batch of fasting pills and water will be given regularly, so that these people will not starve to death or die of thirst."
Zhou Xingyun's tone was flat, but Fang Chen could imagine the so-called scene of granting fasting pills and water.
I'm afraid it's similar to the tourists in the zoo in the previous life feeding animals, and then casting a few spiritual rain spells on them. The only difference is that one is feeding animals and the other is feeding people.
But in the eyes of the two major sects, this should not be considered a difference.
"What about the blood sacrifice?"
Fang Chen asked another key question. Although this is trampling on the dignity of those mortals, he cannot demand the moral level of the cultivation world in his previous life.
Just like this, the two major sects cannot be blamed. They have more or less given mortals a way to survive.
But now it seems that they have gone too far.
"Brother Fang Chen, ten years ago, I was detected with thunder spirit roots and became a direct disciple of Huoyun Sect. Not long after, I saw with my own eyes that the high-level leaders of the sect lured those mortals to the altar in the name of trial, and then turned them into helpers for their breakthrough."
Zhou Xingyun's words still had no emotion, but Fang Chen felt deep anger and powerlessness from it.
Because he had the same emotion.
"I didn't want to go along with them, so I quit Huoyun Sect. The family scolded me for this and drove me to Lianyunfang City to train."
Fang Chen looked at Zhou Xingyun in surprise. He didn't expect him to have such an experience.
"No more talking, let's drink. Brother Xingyun is very talented. When you have enough cultivation, you will definitely seek justice for these mortals."
Just seeing him like this, Fang Chen was also encouraging.
"How can it be that easy?"
Zhou Xingyun smiled bitterly, but did not refuse to drink another glass with Fang Chen.
"I will definitely do it!"
Fang Chen said heavily.
"I will definitely do it!"
Looking at the half of the sky covered by blood red, he said to himself in his heart.
