Xiaoxiao and his uncle had another quarrel, and in the middle of the night, Xiaoxiao rushed into Du Heng's room. He hugged Du Heng and cried so hard that the hair on his face was wet.Du Heng wiped his tears for a long time, and asked him why he had a fight with his uncle. He was so sad that he refused to say anything, and fell asleep after crying tired.

Being laughed at and crying like this made Du Heng feel uncomfortable.He didn't know where the conflict between Fenggui and Xiaoxiao was.Fenggui hoped that Xiaoxiao would take shape as soon as possible, and hoped that Xiaoxiao would not be worse than other little phoenixes.

But Xiaoxiao has worked very hard, he is the most self-disciplined child Du Heng has ever seen.Sometimes when Du Heng went to visit him, he would see Xiaoxiao reading a parchment book thicker than a brick.

Du Heng asked Xuanyu in a low voice: "Can Fenggui not be so strict with Xiaoxiao?" Xuanyu stroked Xiaoxiao's hair, he rolled over and got off the bed and opened the barrier.

Standing outside the barrier was Feng Gui wearing a long gown. Feng Gui asked softly, "Did you fall asleep?" Xuan Yu replied, "Well, I cried for a long time. What caused this trouble this time?"

Feng Gui said: "I want him to stay in Dongji Mountain or let Mao Buyan take him back to the Feng Clan in the south, just mention it, and he has become like this."

After thinking about it for a while, Xuan Yu understood Feng Gui's meaning, Xiaoxiao couldn't change form, and there were many Yaoxiu who knew Xiaoxiao in the demon world.The disappearance of Feng Gui and the others can be regarded as the death of protecting the Saint Temple from a sneak attack by monsters, but there is indeed something wrong with Xiaoxiao disappearing.

This time when they went to the world of human cultivation, a group of them can still change their appearance, but Xiaoxiao has a special physique, and the illusion cast on him will be broken inadvertently, causing unnecessary troubles at that time.

Fenggui gave Xiaoxiao two choices, either stay in Dongji Mountain with Yunzheng Chonghua, or let Maobuyan pick him up to Fengzu.Just these two options made Xiaoxiao cry.

Feng Gui looked at the smile with tears in Du Heng's arms, and said slowly: "Whether he can transform or not, at least he is a Phoenix. When he was in the Feng Clan, he had a few good friends. I I thought he could accept it, but I didn't expect him to react so strongly."

Du Heng carefully put Xiaoxiao on the bed, he tucked Xiaoxiao in the quilt, turned over and got out of bed.He said to Xuan Yu and the others: "Stop arguing with the children, let's talk about it elsewhere."

Ye Mingzhu's Xiafenggui was very distressed: "It's better to let Xiaoxiao stay in Dongji Mountain, so that even if they find Xiaoxiao's trace, but they can't see us, they won't do anything to him. It's not bad to go back to Fengzu , although without me, they may bully Xiaoxiao, but there will be no fear of life."

Du Heng and Xuan Yu listened quietly, not knowing when Jing Nan also joined.The three adults just looked at Feng Gui distressed, Feng Gui sighed: "I always want to give him the best, but always make him feel so uncomfortable, that child must be blaming me in my heart."

Jing Nan stretched out an arm and hooked Feng Gui's neck: "Hey, I know you are kind, but I just smiled and he is not stupid. If the child is not happy, let's not force it. If you are with us, we will be together. Three people can't protect a child? Besides, if we find the Hunting Bead, we can make up for the child's spiritual veins without hesitation. Don't worry about it."

Feng Gui lowered his head and said in a low voice, "His parents are no longer here, if he makes another mistake, how can I feel sorry for them?"

Jing Nan comforted: "It's okay, just take it with you. Xiaoxiao and Du Heng hit it off, and he won't run around with Du Heng around, and he is also a proper child."

Don't say that Du Heng is fine, but if you say that Du Heng returns as a phoenix, you will be helpless.Feng Gui looked up at Du Heng deeply, and he looked at Du Heng deeply.

Du Heng was furious when he saw him: "Why are you looking at me like that?" Oh no, Feng Gui won't come to pursue responsibility, what if Feng Gui accused Du Heng of being too coddled and smiling, which made it difficult for him to educate his children now.Du Heng is really reasonable and can't explain clearly.

Feng Gui shook his head, he smiled wryly: "All of these are not worry-free."

Du Heng smiled awkwardly: "Hey."

Feng Gui suddenly said to Du Heng: "Xiaoxiao and I are not related by blood."

Du Heng was stunned for a moment: "Huh?" No blood relationship?Didn't you mean uncle and nephew?

Feng Gui said: "His father and mother used to be my subordinates, but unfortunately both of them died when they were on a mission, leaving behind a silly smile. I wanted to give him to be raised by a couple with no heirs in the clan, but in the process of When looking for a suitable partner, chaos broke out in the clan. In the chaos, the smiling spirit roots were taken away by greedy people, and even if the little phoenix without spirit roots could break out of its shell, it would become the target of everyone's bullying."

Speaking of sad things, Feng Gui's eyes turned slightly red: "Little Phoenix already has sanity inside the eggshell, and they can communicate with their parents. I don't know anything about raising children. I'm afraid that he won't be able to break the shell. I can hold him all night long. Listening to the child crying inside the eggshell, I thought more than once, if he can't break the shell, how can I be worthy of his parents?"

Jing Nan patted Feng Gui's shoulder lightly: "Stop talking, it's all over."

Feng Gui shook his head in pain: "Not in the past, his parents are such excellent phoenixes, with pure blood and powerful strength. But I can't even protect their heirs, what kind of patriarch should I be?"

Du Heng had mixed feelings in his heart. He always thought that Xiaoxiao and Fenggui were just ordinary uncles and nephews, but there was such a hidden secret in it?Xuan Yu stretched out his hand to hold Du Heng, Du Heng felt the temperature from the back of his hand, and he felt a little better.

Feng Gui's voice was hoarse: "It was very difficult for that child to break out of his shell. The moment he broke out of his shell, I made an oath: As long as I, Feng Gui, are still alive in this life, I will protect him well. I will make him a The happiest child becomes the best phoenix.

"The first thing Xiaoxiao said was to call me Daddy. I thought more than once that it would be great if he was really my child. I can divide my spiritual root into half of him with the Feng Clan's secret technique, but He is not. I can't replace his parents anyway, I can only tell him that I am his uncle.

"When I named him, I named him Fenglin. I hope that one day he will rule the world. My nickname is Xiaoxiao. I hope he can smile and be happy every day. But it is too difficult for a child without spiritual roots to be happy. Yes, the monks of the Yaozu respect strength. Even though they are polite to Xiaoxiao for my sake, they are laughing at him behind his back.

"He was ignorant when he was a child, and I was busy, so I fostered him in the home of the Feng family. Every time I went out, he stood by the door and looked at me. The little Phoenix who was with him is no match for him. Really, I can see him out of a bunch of little phoenixes at a glance.

"When he is in pain or sick, he never cries or makes trouble. Every time he hears the news that I am coming back, he is the first one to wait for me on Fenglintai. The little phoenix beside him slowly transforms into shape." , only he has not yet been able to take form."

Feng Gui's tears fell like this: "I don't know that I am too harsh on him. He is just a child, but I want him to remember the mentality that even the big Phoenix can't remember. I have found all the useful mental methods of Yuzu, I only hope that he can have another way to go. If I am gone in the future, he can also rely on these mental formulas, relying on his understanding and cognition of Yuzu to have a way out .

"Every time I tease him and make him hate me, how can I bear it? You don't know, the child saw my eyes in the early years. Every time I leave, his eyes make me unable to leave. And every time When I came back, the light in his eyes was brighter than the stars in the sky. For a hundred years, no matter what kind of danger I was in, as long as I thought of smiling, I told myself that I could not die.

"After all, I am not his parents. I have too many responsibilities, and there are too many dangers around me. I can't let him rely on me, but I don't want to see his eyes that hate me and disappoint me... All these years I Carefully trying to find a balance, but every time I can't do it well."

Jing Nan held Fenggui in his arms, and he let Fenggui lean on his shoulder: "You have done a good job. Although Xiaoxiao can't change form, he is better than other children. He is kind and brave. You put him Very well taught."

Feng Gui shook his head: "It's not my credit, it's yours and Xiaoyu's credit. Over the years, that child spent too little time with me. Jing Nan, I found it too difficult to raise a child. He put him under my wings to shield him from the wind and rain, but he was afraid that he would lose the ability and courage to face the wind and rain because of too much shelter.

"But I can't do it anyway if I want to let go of him completely. I have wondered more than once, what will happen to Feng Lin if one day I am gone, can he survive? He is so stupid, he was betrayed I need to help people with some money.”

Xuan Yu said slowly: "There won't be that day."

Jing Nan also comforted: "Yes, the most important people are here, don't worry."

Feng Gui wiped away his tears, and he choked up and said, "I said tonight, let him stay in Dongji Mountain, or return to the Feng Clan. He was talking to me in a good way, and then just... just so bluntly." Looking at me, tears rolled down my face.

"This child has been out of his shell. Although he usually cries when I tease him, he has never cried so sadly. Do you know? In my opinion, it is for his good, but in his opinion, I As if he had done something heinous. I knew he was sad.

"Let me tell you, if Jinghong was in front of me now, I would be able to crush her spirit mercilessly right now so that she would never be reborn forever. If it weren't for her, Xiaoxiao would stay in the Feng clan and become an outstanding Little Phoenix will become a powerful demon cultivator like his parents. But Jinghong, she ruined everything for a man."

Jing Nan stroked Feng Gui's blond hair, and he said in relief: "Think about it, if there is no Jing Hong, you wouldn't care so much and smile. You have so many subordinates, and so many Yu Clan demon cultivators who fall every year. They will also have children. The reason why Xiaoxiao is special is because his spiritual root is destroyed. If his spiritual root is intact, you will foster him in an ordinary family of the Feng family, and watch him play in the family. The people around him said: Ah, that is the child of so-and-so, who is already so big."

Jing Nan said with a smile: "Wipe your tears quickly, if Xiaoxiao wakes up and sees you crying later, he might laugh at you. Actually, I think, Xiaoxiao really looks like you, you deserve to be raised children."

Feng Gui wiped away his tears, he cleared his throat: "Can you see that I have cried?"

Jing Nan and Xuan Yu held out their thumbs at the same time: "No, they are still so handsome."

Du Heng felt that the filter of Feng Gui in his heart had been completely shattered. Feng Gui, who was so cool and tyrannical when he first met, turned into a willful and domineering foodie who loves spicy food, and then turned into a good friend who endured humiliation for his children. elder.As expected, monsters and humans have multiple faces, and Du Heng felt that Feng Gui had revealed his true nature in front of everyone.

Feng Gui sniffled, and he said in frustration: "This child is usually easy to coax, but this time he is so angry that he must not be able to coax him well." Feng Gui was very depressed: "It's also my fault that I took it for granted, the child has his own ideas when he grows up. He already ran away from home last time and wanted to go to the world of human cultivation, so he might not know what he thinks of me this time."

It is too painful to be misunderstood by the one you love, what Fenggui said to Xiaoxiao's ears is tantamount to abandoning him again, of course Xiaoxiao will be sad.But Feng Gui was indeed not malicious, this was probably the most troublesome thing in the world - doing bad things with good intentions.

212

Seeing Fenggui's downcast, Du Heng said: "Xiaoxiao actually loves uncle very much. He will always think of Fenggui when he has something delicious. Every time he finds something delicious, he will save it up and bring it back to Fenggui. Fenggui, you are well." Just apologize and explain clearly."

Feng Gui was also quite wronged, he shrank his neck like a rooster who had been defeated in a fight, how could he have a ten-thousandth of his usual expression?

Du Heng said with a smile: "Tomorrow I'll make a snack, Fenggui, you can take it to Xiaoxiao, and then talk softly, and make sure Xiaoxiao is as usual." Fenggui raised his head suspiciously: "Really?"

Du Heng gave a thumbs up: "Look at it!"

Uncle and nephew Feng Gui made a fuss for most of the night, which made Du Heng feel sleepy.He lay on the bed hugging Xiaoxiao who was sleeping soundly, and then whispered to Xuan Yu: "Feng Gui really loves Xiaoxiao deeply. I can't tell that he has such a temperament."

Xuan Yu responded softly to Du Heng: "Feng Gui is a little impatient, and smiling is his weakness, although he doesn't admit it." Du Heng squinted his eyes: "I used to think that he was open and domineering, but I didn't expect him to There is such a delicate side.”

Xuan Yu smiled lowly: "Feng Gui is not at home all year round, you have only a short time to contact him. In fact, he is a fool, he loves brains and dies, he has a hard mouth, and he often jumps three feet high at one point. , but he is still a glass heart. When I was a child, I often cried in anger."

Du Heng suddenly pricked up his ears: "Huh? Crying?"

Xuan Yu's smile deepened: "Can't you tell? He was still a cryr when he was a child, with a loud voice and lots of tears. Once he started crying, he couldn't stop crying. Qing Heng immediately hid when he saw that he was about to howl."

The corners of Du Heng's mouth twitched: "Hey? Really? You can't tell at all! Tell me about your childhood?"

Xuan Yu smiled and said: "Okay, when Jing Nan was a child, he was so weak that he encouraged Feng Gui to do any bad things, and after he did it, he pushed it on me..."

Early the next morning, Du Heng smiled while kneading his dough: "Is there such a thing?"

Jing Nan jumped violently: "Who's broken? Let me tell you, you can't listen to Xuanyu's nonsense, he is the worst person! Hey, he is best at pretending to be pitiful and good-looking in front of Qingheng, you must not Be deceived by him!"

Du Heng shrugged: "I don't know, I just heard what you said. If you have any opinions, go fight yourself."

Jing Nan snorted angrily: "It's unreasonable, you dare to tarnish my reputation. Ah, how angry..." After a while, Jing Nan sniffled: "Is it still okay? I've been waiting for a long time."

Du Heng looked at Jing Nan curiously: "It's strange, didn't you used to be lazy? Today Xiaoxiao didn't get up, why did you get up?"

Jing Nan sighed: "It's not Fenggui, who dragged me and talked about it all night. I thought I couldn't fall asleep anyway, so I came to watch over you. Didn't you say you want to make dim sum? This is the dim sum you are going to make What? What is this? It's yellow."

In the wooden basin in front of Du Heng was a ball of yellow rice noodles, and he was dividing the ball of rice noodles in half.Du Heng said: "This is a rice noodle ball mixed with pumpkin and rice flour. It will be ready after frying in a frying pan."

Jing Nan pointed to a plate of yellow crumbs beside him and asked, "Then what is this?" Du Heng smiled and said, "Bread crumbs."

Jing Nan blinked: "What? What bran?"

Du Heng explained: "Actually, I dried the solid steamed buns and crumbled them. When making fried food, I coated them with a layer of this. A crispy shell would form on the outside, and the taste would be even better."

Jing Nan squeezed a little and tasted it, and it really smelled like a solid steamed bun: "There are so many patterns."

Du Heng smiled and said, "It's for coaxing children, you have to be fancy." Du Heng kept his hands on while talking, and he divided the divided dough into even doses.

Jing Nan stood beside Du Heng and turned around: "Hey? What about this noodle? Why is it such a color?" Du Heng looked at Jing Nan's paws that kept probing, and he took out the twig next to him that threatened to smile and shook it. Nan withdrew his hand knowingly.

Du Heng laughed and said, "This is simple. The yellow ones are pumpkins. Didn't Yun Zheng and the others bring back a lot of pumpkins? They peeled and steamed the pumpkins, and then added rice noodles in a ratio of five to three. That is, if there are five catties of pumpkins that are mushy, they can be served with About three catties of rice noodles."

Jing Nan looked at Du Heng helplessly: "Do you think... do I look like a fool?" Du Heng dared to say the ratio to a pill player?Is he joking?

Du Heng chuckled: "There is also a portion of starch and a portion of sugar in it, and the taste will be even better if you add it in. Then just knead them like this to knead them into a ball."

Jing Nan stretched out his paws to the dough, and pressed the dough: "Have you added water?"

Du Heng patted Jing Nan's paw: "No need, because the pumpkin paste already has moisture in it, and after kneading, it will be like this rice noodle ball. Then you can make pumpkin pancakes."

Du Heng kneaded the pills he picked out into balls, and then pressed them down on the chopping board to the size of a palm.He rolled the pressed pancake in the bread crumbs, and sure enough, there were some bread crumbs on both sides of the pancake.Du Heng also lightly pressed the cake to make the bread crumbs stick tighter.

After the bread crumbs were attached, he slid the cake along the side of the pan into the oil pan.The pancake sank to the bottom of the pot temporarily after it was put into the pot, but it floated up from the bottom of the pot after a while.

Huang Chengcheng's pumpkin pie hadn't foamed yet, so Du Heng threw a pair of chopsticks to Jing Nan: "Help me look at the pie, if you see any pie floating, turn over for me, every pie has to be turned four or five times, so Only then can it swell up and become round."

Jing Nan held up his chopsticks: "What about you?"

Du Heng said: "I make pancakes, fried ones, and steamed ones in a steamer."

While speaking, another five or six pancakes were poured into the pot. Seeing the yellow color floating in the pot, Jing Nan was extremely helpless: "The early bird catches the worm... Hey, the early fox has something to do."

Jing Nan turned over the cake while muttering, and the pumpkin cake really swelled after being heated.After a while, swollen pancakes were placed in the Shau Kei on the pot table.Jing Nan turned over the cake and asked Du Heng: "Where's Xiaoyu? You haven't woken up yet?"

Du Heng gave Jing Nan a white look: "You think Xiaoyu is you? He helped me pick persimmons."

Jing Nan swept his consciousness, and he saw Xuan Yu releasing geese to pick persimmons in the forest not far away.He sighed: "Sin, what a good dragon is doing. By the way, what are you doing picking persimmons? The persimmons are not yet ripe, and you have to wait for half a month."

Du Heng just dropped the last piece of pumpkin pie that needed to be fried into the frying pan, and he took the other half of the rice noodle balls in the wooden basin.He grabbed the jiaozi casually and said: "Pick it back and make crispy persimmons and dried persimmons. Otherwise, so many persimmons will ripen together, and it will be too late to eat."

Jing Nan frowned: "Hey, it's something I haven't eaten before, it's not bad."

After Jing Nan scooped up all the pancakes in the pan, a dozen palm-sized golden pumpkins were placed in the steamer in front of Du Heng.These are all pumpkins made by Du Heng from the dough. Du Heng kneaded the jelly into balls skillfully, and then pressed the balls into dough.

Du Heng put a spoonful of honey red beans in the middle of the dough, collected the dough and rolled it into a ball. This is not over yet, he also took a bamboo stick and pressed along the edge of the dough.Six shallow grooves appeared on the surface of the small ball, and the embryonic form of a pumpkin came out.

The pumpkins Du Heng made were much more beautiful than the pumpkins picked by Yun Zheng and the others. The pumpkins he made were even in size, and they were cute and well-behaved when placed in the steamer.Du Heng also pressed a long red and white strip in the center of the pumpkin, Jing Nan took a look, it was red dates cut into long strips!

Jing Nan reached out and took a fried pumpkin pie and gnawed on it: "It's so beautiful... Mmm! It's delicious!"

The fried pumpkin pie is crispy on the outside and soft on the inside, fragrant and crispy, and you can see the cavity inside the pie when you bite into it.Although it was deep-fried, it didn't taste greasy at all, and Jing Nan couldn't help dropping one.

Du Heng said to Jing Nan: "You can ask Feng Guilai to bring cakes to make you laugh."

Jing Nan took another cake, and he said calmly, "I'll coax me well first." Jing Daxian's face was extremely thick, and Du Heng was helpless.

After a while, the pumpkin cakes that were used for steaming were also placed in the steamer. After the water was boiled and steamed with a cup of tea, the cakes were ready to be cooked!

When Du Heng was about to call Fenggui, Fenggui had already walked onto the platform.Feng Gui turned into that majestic and calm monster again, he took the pumpkin pie that Du Heng handed him, and nodded gratefully.

Du Heng looked at Feng Gui's way of turning around and sighed: "It's very happy to be able to be cared by someone like Feng Gui."

Jing Nan said casually: "Yeah, Feng Gui doesn't care about anything at all, but he's actually very thoughtful." Du Heng couldn't help but think of what Xuan Yu said, and he asked Jing Nan meanly: "Hey, Nan Nan , Was Feng Gui really a crying bag when he was a child?"

Jing Nan raised her eyebrows: "Hey, that voice can't stop crying, whoever listens will know."

Du Heng gnawed on the cake and sighed: "You can't judge by appearance..."

After a while, the cakes in the steamer were cooked. Du Heng took out the steamer, and while the pot was hot, he cooked tofu soup in the pot.He likes to have some salty and fresh tofu soup in the morning, which is delicious with fried dough sticks or fried buns.It's a pity that the oven is gone, otherwise some cakes could be baked.

When Du Heng poured the thickened soup into the soup pot, he heard the cry of the little wonton.He turned his head, just in time to see Xuanyu coming with the morning dew, Xuanyu was carrying a basket of yellow persimmons on his back: "I'm back."

Du Heng put down the bowl in his hand: "Ah, the pumpkin pie is ready, come and eat the pie!"

213

Facts have proved that Xiaoxiao is very coaxing. Before the tofu soup was ready, Xiaoxiao flapped her wings and followed her uncle to the platform one after the other.Du Heng showed Xiaoxiao the pumpkin pie in the steamer, Xiaoxiao's hair trembled three times, and he made a coherent chirping sound in surprise.

Du Heng smiled and said, "What you ate just now was fried pumpkin pie, this one is steamed, which one do you like?"

Xiaoxiao looked at the pancakes in the steamer fondly, carefully took one and gave it to Fenggui, and then took another one to taste.Xiaoxiao patted his stomach and chirped and told Du Heng that he likes these two kinds of pumpkin cakes very much!

A crisis between uncle and nephew came to a successful conclusion with the uncle and nephew shaking hands and making peace. Xiaoxiao doesn't have to worry about being left behind by his uncle, and Fenggui will never mention the matter of letting Xiaoxiao stay.Relaxed Feng Gui looked at the persimmons in the basket: "Huh? Persimmons? Not ripe yet?"

Du Heng smiled and said: "Yes, they are not yet ripe, but this level is just right for making crispy persimmons." It was the first time Feng Gui heard about crispy persimmons. He gnawed on a pumpkin pie: "Crispy persimmons? Is that what it means? ?”

Xuanyu said: "Du Heng said, smear the persimmons with white wine and put them in an airtight place. After three to five days, you can eat crispy and sweet persimmons, which will not astringent your mouth at all."

Fenggui came back excited: "Really? Is there another way? I really like to eat persimmons, but I can only eat them every year when there is frost. The persimmons of the Southern Yu tribe are much larger than those of Dongji Mountain. Flat."

Du Heng looked at the persimmons that Xuanyu had picked back, these persimmons were not small, each of them weighed one or two, heavy in his hand.The yellowish persimmons are hard, if you hit them on the head of a small wonton, you will be able to smash a bag out.

Du Heng picked up half a frame of persimmons, and he trimmed the flower-shaped fruit stems on the persimmons with spiritual energy.Then he found a clay jar, rolled each persimmon in a white wine bowl, and then Du Heng carefully stacked it in the jar.

Du Heng closed the lid with satisfaction: "You can eat crispy persimmons in three to five days!"

He plans to make the remaining persimmons into persimmons. The process of making persimmons is rather cumbersome. It needs to be dried and stored for a long time, and it will not be ready in a while.Du Heng is not in a hurry, he is going to do it slowly after breakfast.

When he took a steamed pumpkin pie and tasted it carefully, he saw that Xiaoxiao was gnawing a peeled raw persimmon in his mouth.Du Heng was stunned: "Hey? Smile, where did you get the persimmons?"

Smiling, he turned his head and pointed in the direction of the table. Du Heng looked back and saw that Feng Gui and Jing Nan had already lifted the lid.Feng Gui was peeling the persimmons, while Jing Nan was gnawing on the persimmons.

Du Heng understood at a glance, Feng Gui must have used the time against the sky to quickly circulate Dafa!It's really easy for the monks to eat, Du Heng's eyes are hot.

Xuan Yu snatched the freshly peeled persimmon from Feng Gui, and he handed it to Du Heng: "It smells good."

Du Heng was very helpless: "You eat persimmons just after breakfast, and you won't be afraid of diarrhea when it's cold or hot." Not to mention, crispy persimmons are crunchy and sweet. They taste like apples, but they are sweeter than apples.

Persimmons with or without ripe seeds in them taste more crisp and tender.Du Heng immediately fell in love with the persimmons from Dongji Mountain. He sighed: "It's so sweet, even sweeter than the persimmons from my hometown."

Yunzheng and the others also woke up, they tasted the persimmons, Yunzheng asked about the method and said that he would pick more persimmons to make crispy persimmons, persimmons are much sweeter than other wild fruits.What a wonderful fruit it would be if it could be kept until winter.

Feng Gui was thoughtful: "Speaking of it...every year when it's the season to eat persimmons, another delicacy will be on the market. I wonder if there are any in Dongji Mountain."

Xuan Yu miraculously accepted Feng Gui's topic: "You mean crab?"

Chonghua said casually: "Is it the kind of crab with fluff on its claws? It's really getting fat this season, it should be yellow."

Du Heng was stunned for a moment: "Are you talking about...hairy crabs?" There are hairy crabs in Dongji Mountain? ?

Yun Zheng said: "I don't know what hairy crabs Mr. Du is talking about, but the kind of crabs Mr. Feng mentioned are found in the Dongji Mountains, and they are found in the ditches at the foot of the mountains. If Mr. Feng likes it, this subordinate will go and catch some. .”

Feng Gui nodded: "Well, you need the big ones, the small ones are boring to eat." Feng Gui, who was eating persimmons, ordered Yun Zheng and the others domineeringly: "We will steam them when we catch them."

Du Heng said quietly: "I'm afraid you won't be able to eat it if you catch it back."

Feng Gui was puzzled: "Why?" Du Heng said: "Psimmons and crabs are mutually incompatible, if you eat them, you will be poisoned."

Feng Gui was extremely calm: "Oh, I am immune to all poisons, don't worry."

It took Yun Zheng and the others a whole morning of work to come and go, and it only took a few moments to catch crabs, and they never stopped on their way.It can be seen from this that Dongji Mountain is really big, so big that guards like Yun Zheng and the others have to travel long distances.

However, the crabs that Yunzheng and the others brought back surprised Du Heng very much. As he expected, there were blue and black hairy crabs in the back basket, each of which weighed three or four, and the largest crab had a crab cover that was bigger than Du Heng's fist. .People in the demon world also raise crabs. Du Heng has never seen such a big crab in his hometown.

What is the most delicious way to eat crab?Steamed and boiled can retain the original taste, and the drunken crab and choked crab have an extra layer of deliciousness on top of the original taste. Braised and fried with some ingredients in it, bibimbap with wine is a must.

Looking at a large basket of crabs, Du Heng's mind has already floated countless crab dishes.However, he didn't plan to make these crab dishes at noon, so don't ask him why, if you ask, he will blame Feng Feng for them.

Fenggui and the others had no restraint, they ate most of the crunchy persimmons in the morning, they were not afraid of being poisoned, Du Heng was afraid that they would fall down!To be on the safe side, the crab dishes are cooked at night. If Du Heng sees someone secretly eating crispy persimmons in the afternoon, he will beat him up!

Du Heng and Xuan Yu soaked the remaining persimmons in salt water and cleaned them. After the persimmons were dry, they peeled the skins and tied the stems with strings and hung them in Yun Zheng's house. Dry on the highest platform.

The peeled persimmon skins were not wasted, Du Heng put them together on bamboo stalks to dry.

The highest platform can see most of Dongji Mountain, Du Heng stood at the highest place and took a deep breath: "Ah, the scenery of Dongji Mountain is really beautiful!"

Xuanyu is applying an enchantment to the persimmons on the platform, and Du Heng is not going to put away the persimmons next, which requires an enchantment to protect them.Hearing Du Heng say this, Xuan Yu turned his head to look at Du Heng, who was looking far away with one hand above his eyes.

Xuan Yu said: "This place used to be barren." Du Heng blinked: "Huh? Really?"

Xuanyu said: "Dongji Mountain used to be where the heavenly ranks were, and the monks who got them could ascend to the upper realm through the heavenly ranks. However, the heavenly ranks were broken, and the Taixu Realm sank into the sea of ​​chaos. Since then, no one from the Taixu Realm has ascended to the upper realm." The falling heavenly steps hit the ground to form Dongji Mountain. This mountain stretches across thousands of miles from north to south, separating the two worlds of human cultivators and demon cultivators. For current monks, Dongji Mountain is still An insurmountable moat."

Du Heng's eyes sparkled: "Really? Is it really possible to ascend to the upper realm?"

Xuan Yu smiled and nodded: "Yes. It is said that in ancient times there was a Tao tree that could carry thousands of small worlds, and all the small worlds were attached to the Tao tree at that time."

Du Heng interrupted Xuanyu: "Daomu? Are you talking about the Daomu at the entrance of our village?" Xuanyu thought for a while: "Maybe? I just don't know, and I have never seen such a huge Daomu."

Du Heng said embarrassedly: "You continue."

Xuanyu said: "The dao tree has grown on the chaotic sea for hundreds of billions of years, and then it began to decay because of its age. The dao tree carrying the way of heaven finally collapsed, and the small world attached to the dao tree also crashed into the sea. Falling into the chaotic sea The small world of the world will be swallowed up by the Chaos Sea, and perhaps you already know that the Taixu Realm cannot escape the fate of sinking into the sea. It is only the sage Qingheng who used his own power to fill the channel through which the Chaos Sea eroded the earth."

Du Heng nodded, he spent this period in the history books.When reading this paragraph, Du Heng didn't have a deep feeling, but now when Xuan Yu said it, he suddenly felt heavy.

Xuan Yu said: "I, Jing Nan, Feng Gui, the three of us were picked up by Qing Heng." Du Heng felt that Xuan Yu's voice was full of nostalgia, he thought for a long time and could only think of two words: "My condolences. "

Xuan Yu smiled slightly: "He has been away for ten thousand years, even though his name is left in the history books. But there are not many people who remember who he is."

Du Heng didn't know how to comfort Xuan Yu, he said: "You must miss him very much."

Xuanyu nodded: "Yes, I really want to think about it. He hasn't been with us for a long time, only a few hundred years. When he fell, he didn't even see our transformation." Du Heng's nose was a little sore, he thought of The thatched cottage in the cave.

Xuanyu said slowly: "For the monks in the demon world and the human world, he is a saint. But for us, he is a family member and irreplaceable. He is so stupid and naive. Believe me. He doesn’t need to die, but everyone said that he has the highest cultivation level, so he just jumped off. He said that there are some things in the world that must be done by someone. He died, and that’s enough to keep us alive. .”

Du Heng chuckled: "Stupid." Du Heng felt that he was a bit better, he didn't care who the other party was and what happened to him before, all he cared about was the present moment.Now this excellent man is his Taoist partner, that's enough.Instead of thinking about things that give yourself a headache, it's better to live your own life in a down-to-earth manner.

Xuan Yu looked up at the strings of persimmons hanging in front of the cave, and asked Du Heng: "It's still early, do you want to pick more persimmons and make more persimmons?"

Du Heng refused: "Leave some for the birds in the mountains? When the mountains are covered by heavy snow, the birds can't find anything to eat."

Xuan Yu laughed, and he dragged Du Heng to the west of Yunzheng Cave Mansion: "You underestimate the Yu Clan, and you underestimate Dongji Mountain too."

Du Heng looked around, and saw that there was a large fruit forest facing the west platform, and wherever he looked, there were all kinds of fruits.Du Heng scratched his head
