The Magician of Cultivation

"Excuse me, sir, what would you like to eat?"

The restaurant waiter handed Yun Yi an order book with beautiful pictures on it, bowed slightly, and asked humbly.

Yun Yi did not look at the album, but said:

"Boiled West Sea Golden Line Basin Clams, Steamed Snowland Ice Sea Dragon Fish, Braised Flamingo, and all your signature dishes."

"Okay, my dear guest, a total of gold coins."

The waiter smiled brightly and spoke in a more humble tone:

"Dear magician, according to the rules set by our boss, if you spend more than 1 gold coins in a single transaction, you can enjoy a % discount."

"After the discount, your purchase amount is gold coins. I'll give you a zero, and you just need to pay."

Yun Yi casually threw him a gold card. The other party took it with both hands, swiped a few gold coins, and then handed it back to him respectfully.

"Please keep your card, the food will be delivered shortly. Is there anything else I can help you with?"

Yun Yi waved his hand to signal him that he could leave.

The other party didn't say anything more, just bowed and left.

"Zhao Mengyao..."

After the waiter left, Yun Yi looked at Li Yu and said softly.

"what?"

Li Yu was stunned, not quite understanding what he meant.

"The girl you bumped into just now is named Zhao Mengyao."

"Zhao Mengyao?" Li Yu murmured again.

"Well, could it be that you are really attracted to that girl?"

Yun Yi’s eyes widened, his face full of gossip.

He continued with a bit of evil, "That girl is at most ten years old. Sigh, how inhumane, too inhumane. An old man loves a lolita. The world is going downhill."

Li Yu's forehead suddenly became black.

"Hey, what are you talking about? Who is the uncle? I just turned 13 years old."

Without waiting for Yun Yi to speak, he asked first, "Have you noticed that Zhao Mengyao is a little weird?"

"Yes," Yun Yi replied calmly.

"Oh, you found out too?"

Li Yu's eyes lit up, "I thought it was just my illusion?"

Yun Yi put away the smile on his face, looked at him, and said solemnly, "It's not an illusion, this Zhao Mengyao of the Zhao family is probably not simple."

Li Yu nodded seriously with a serious expression.

"After all, she must have practiced some extremely powerful seduction technique to make even us, the Fire Demon, fall in love with her at first sight."

Yun Yi frowned, his expression seemingly calm, but his eyebrows trembled from time to time.

Li Yu: "..."

"Is this an illusion?"

Li Yu secretly thought.

When he pulled Zhao Mengyao's hand just now, he felt that the other person's hand was like a piece of cold iron, icy and bone-chilling, enough to freeze one's soul.

"That can't possibly be the hand of a living person. There's not a trace of warmth."

But Zhao Mengyao was indeed a ten-year-old girl, he was absolutely sure of that.

That is why he asked Yun Yi whether he had noticed anything abnormal with Zhao Mengyao.

Obviously, Yun Yi didn't see any problem.

"Is it because of my identity as a cultivator that I noticed Zhao Mengyao's abnormality, or am I wrong?"

Li Yu shook his head, as if trying to shake off the doubts in his head.

But he knew in his heart that his perception was not wrong.

Seeing him like this, Yun Yi also became a little serious.

"What's wrong with that little girl?"

"I'm not sure yet." Li Yu pondered, "By the way, Brother Yun, do you know much about the Zhao family in Liaocheng?"

"not much."

Yun Yi shook his head decisively, "I'm not from Liaocheng, I'm just passing by this time. Let's eat first, and I'll ask the Gu brothers to find out later."

When he saw someone pushing a food cart out of the kitchen, he knew that the dishes he ordered were ready.

Yun Yi would not let an irrelevant person affect his mood for eating.

The food cart was slowly pushed out from the aisle, and the rich aroma filled the entire restaurant.

Li Yu's Adam's apple rolled unconsciously a few times.

He hadn't eaten for three days, and the smell of food was unbearable for him.

He immediately forgot about Zhao Mengyao's matter.

Soon, the dining cart was pushed in front of the two.

Two pretty women in white waitress uniforms placed plates of colorful and fragrant delicacies on the long table in front of the two men.

"The boiled West Sea Golden Thread Clams are taken from the clams that are over a hundred years old on the coastline of the West Sea of ​​Xueyan Kingdom. Li Yu, you see, the shells of ordinary clams are earthy brown, and after a hundred years of absorbing the essence of the sun and the moon, they form golden threads, which is why they are named Golden Thread Clams."

As Yun Yi spoke, he picked up a piece of golden thread basin clam meat and put it into the bowl.

"The clam meat is slow-cooked by the chef, which is delicious and contains abundant life energy."

"If ordinary people eat it, it can strengthen their bodies and enhance their physical strength. If fighters or magicians eat it, it will help their practice."

Yun Yi talked eloquently, and it was obvious that he was very familiar with the golden line basin clam.

Li Yu's eyes lit up slightly. When he first came to this world, he had eaten the meat of the claw beast.

I was deeply impressed at the time. Not only is the meat of the claw beast delicious, but the life energy it contains is also very beneficial to the body.

Obviously, the claw beast is far inferior to the golden clam in front of it.

"Try it." Yun Yi said with a smile.

Li Yu was not polite and picked up a piece of golden thread basin clam meat and put it into the bowl.

The meat of the golden line basin clam is plump and its appearance is similar to that of a river clam, but it is larger in size.

Fresh ingredients are often cooked in the simplest way.

This dish of golden thread clams is just like that, simply boiled in water and seasoned with salt.

In this way, the freshness and nutrition of the clam meat can be preserved to the greatest extent.

Li Yu moved closer to the clam, opened his mouth wide and took a bite.

The clam meat melts in your mouth, a warm current slowly flows into your stomach, and the fragrance fills your entire mouth.

He quickly closed his mouth, trying to retain the scent.

However, the fragrance still wafts from the corners of the mouth and nose.

He only felt his scalp tingling, his soul trembling, the fragrance penetrated into his bones, and his whole body was in a daze.

The warm current transformed from the clam meat is constantly absorbed by the body, converted into pure energy, and nourishes the body.

His spiritual power has been basically restored through the practice, but the lost essence and blood needs to be slowly recuperated by the body.

After swallowing this large piece of clam meat, he felt that his essence and blood were replenished.

"The meat in this world contains spiritual energy, and it is so effective in nourishing essence and blood."

Li Yu's eyes became brighter and brighter, and his gaze turned to the other dishes on the table.

"Li Yu, how do you feel?"

“Earthly delicacy.”

"Hahaha, what a delicious delicacy."

Yun Yi laughed, "It's better for us magicians when we fight. After all, casting magic mainly consumes mental energy and mana."

"But fighters are different. Not only do they consume fighting spirit, but they also consume a lot of blood and energy during battle. How much ordinary food do they need to make up for the loss?"

Upon hearing this, Li Yu nodded in agreement.
