I open a restaurant in Xiujie

The rain fluttered like smoke and mist.

The wind is filled with the fresh aroma of newborn grass, mixed with the smell of soil. The warm spring breeze rushes towards the face, carrying the drizzle over the shoulders, and covering the fluttering black hair with a layer of moisture.

Yu Xiaotan dragged Ji Chuchen all the way to the hillside.

From a distance, I could see a fiery orange in the middle of the field, and the branches and leaves swayed in the drizzle, sending a silent welcome to Yu Xiaotan.

When you get closer, you can see golden-orange fruits falling between the branches and leaves, like little red lanterns covered with branches, emitting a lustrous luster through the misty rain.

Yu Xiaotan carefully raised his hand and touched one of the fruits.

As if sensing the master's call, the maple spirit fruit fell in response, and the peel peeled off automatically, leaving only the crystal clear and jade-like flesh in Yu Xiaotan's hand.

Yu Xiaotan broke off one petal and put it in his mouth.

——The full juice exploded in the mouth, and the fragrance filled the mouth in an instant.

It was so delicious, Yu Xiaotan chewed the pulp, the sour and sweet feelings were perfectly intertwined in his mouth, and finally presented a kind of extremely ethereal and wonderful atmosphere, mysterious and mysterious, making people feel like flying to the clouds, taking advantage of the colorful clouds Traveling thousands of miles, overlooking the earth and returning to spring.

Immediately, he heard a clear electronic sound in his ears.

【Luck +1】

Yu Xiaotan's eyes suddenly lit up.

It turned out to be luck.

Familiar with fantasy novels, Yu Xiaotan is familiar with the importance of luck.

Why can the protagonist jump off a cliff and always pick up magical skills, why the protagonist can always break through at the nick of time, why the protagonist can pick up treasures wherever he goes - this is luck.

This orange... Ah no, it is a maple spirit fruit that is worthy of being produced by the system, and it can even increase the ethereal luck.

Reminiscent of the tasks released by the system before, Yu Xiaotan thought for a moment, and gradually came to an idea.

He didn't forget to hand over the other half of the maple fruit to Ji Chuchen, and said with a smile, "Brother Ji, try it too."

Ji Chuchen looked at half of the maple fruit in his palm and remained silent.

But there was a storm in my heart.

He has been exploring the small restaurant for a long time, and of course he has seen this small slope.

However, after testing in the early morning of the season, this soil slope is just the most common land, and it is a relatively barren type, with a lot of sand and gravel, and the soil lacks fertility. It is reasonable to say that it is difficult to grow ordinary crops.

The water to be poured is picked from a small stream not far away, the water quality is clear, with occasional silt and sand, anyway, it has nothing to do with aura.

He has also seen the maintenance methods of Bai Junda and Yu Xiaotan, and they are nothing out of the ordinary.

And now, right in front of his eyes, on this ordinary hillside, there is actually a spiritual plant growing?

That Lingzhi has also produced fruit!

One knot is densely packed with hundreds of them!

It's so dark, the spiritual plants that Ji Chuchen has seen are all planted in the best spiritual fields, soaked in deep mountain spiritual springs every day, and sent disciples with wooden spiritual roots to take care of them day and night, and from time to time use their own skills to turn them into spiritual rain to water them ——Just like that, those Ling Zhis were still drooping all day long, looking like they were dying.

It is ripened once every ten years or hundreds of years, and when it is ripe, it is only three or five fruits sparsely, like sending a beggar away.

Ji Chuchen thought that Lingzhi was like that.

But the scene in front of him really shocked him. Over the years, how had he ever seen a spiritual plant grow in such a barren land and bear so many fruits at once?

It's just, it's like...

A strange thought flashed through Ji Chuchen's mind: It was as if he had tried his best to present the most delicate and delicious fruits to their owners.

Ji Chuchen was silent for a long time.

The maple fruit gave off a refreshing aroma at his fingertips, and the part where it was broken revealed a crystal-like plump flesh. Just by looking at it, he could imagine the wonderful feeling of the sweet juice filling his mouth after biting off this piece of fruit.

Slowly raising his hand, Ji Chuchen handed the maple fruit into his mouth.

A resonance that was drawn from the depths of his soul hit him in an instant.

Regardless of the sweet, sour, tongue-stimulating delicacy in his mouth, Ji Chuchen once again felt the spiritual power flowing in his body. His broken dantian was like a dead lake, but the delicious juice of the maple spirit fruit was like The drizzle fell all over the sky, pattering down on the lake, causing countless small ripples.

It is actually a wonder that surpasses the efficacy of potatoes before.

It's amazing, Ji Chuchen sighed in his heart.

He stared fixedly at Yu Xiaotan, his long and narrow Danfeng eyes gleamed with gleam, his eyes pierced through the misty rain, and fell on the side face of the young man who was holding fruit and smiling happily not far away.

She has a beautiful appearance, a good temperament, and a kind and lovely person, especially a pair of black eyes that are as bright as lacquer. When she smiles happily, her whole person shines like a star left in the sky.

Thinking of this, Ji Chuchen felt a warm feeling in his heart, but then he was filled with endless doubts——

Apart from these, he really couldn't see anything strange about the boy in front of him.

Yes, Ji Chuchen has been able to confirm that whether potatoes or maple fruit, the reason why these wonderful crops appeared in the world is not because of small restaurants, nor because of the land in front of them, but because of this standing in the drizzle, the thin shirt Slightly damp, a young man with black hair and damp hair.

He is the beginning of everything, the center of everything.

Everything is incredible.

With a trembling heart, Ji Chuchen took off his outer robe and lightly put it on Yu Xiaotan's shoulders: "Xiaotan, be careful of catching a cold."

The large robe was stained with Ji Chuchen's body temperature, and Yu Xiaotan smelled a cool scent of agarwood.His cheeks were slightly red, and only then did he realize that he was patronizing the ripe maple spirit fruit, and even forgot that it was still raining at this moment.

It was too much, and even let the patient get wet in the rain.

Moreover, after Ji Chuchen took off his outer robe, the white thin clothing on the inside was soaked by the rain, sticking to his body vaguely, and the outline of firm skin could be vaguely seen. Bound by a layer of tulle, the white gauze is not stained with dust, and the fragile beauty and unattainable nobility are wonderfully blended together, which makes people dare not look more.

Read more, for fear of making a mistake.

Yu Xiaotan hurriedly took off his outer robe, rolled it up, and wrapped it around Ji Chuchen's shoulders.

He pushed the young man and urged him to go back, blaming himself as he walked: "It's all my fault for letting you, a wounded patient, get wet in the rain. Go back quickly, the wound cannot be soaked in water."

In fact, it doesn't matter, Ji Chuchen thought to himself, as a swordsman, bumps and bumps are inevitable from childhood to adulthood, so what's the point of getting some water on the wound?

But he didn't say anything, just smiled and followed Yu Xiaotan back silently.

After turning the small bend in the mountain road, the maple spirit fruit tree gradually disappeared, Ji Chuchen said softly: "By the way, Xiaotan, I asked you before..."

"Well, you're asking where it's easy to get news, right?" Yu Xiaotan's eyes lit up slightly, "Brother Ji, do you remember something from the past?"

Ji Chuchen smiled and said, "Not yet. But I thought, if I listen to more news, maybe it will get better."

"That's right," Yu Xiaotan said briskly, "Luo Town is a bit remote, and there weren't many business travelers in the past, but Brother Ji, don't worry, when the secret realm on Qinghong Mountain opens and all kinds of fairy gates gather, I will definitely help you find your mountain gate."

"..." Ji Chuchen's smile stiffened slightly, and then he changed his tune, "There's no need to rush it."

With the fairy gates gathered together, he can't reveal his identity even more. After all, he has no power to restrain the chicken at the moment. What if the first to find the gate is not a friend, but an enemy?

Fortunately, this is Qingzhou, which is thousands of miles away from Yunzhou.

He can gain a firm foothold here first, and then inquire about the sect a little bit.

In the past few days, Yu Xiaotan ate a lot of potatoes, and Ji Chuchen thought that when Zongli sent someone to pick him up in the future, he would have to leave more resources for the other party.

But that's all for the future, the most important thing at the moment is to integrate into the restaurant and better cover yourself.After a few days of inquiring, Ji Chuchen's biggest achievement was to confirm Yu Xiaotan's character, and staying in the restaurant for a short period of time was the safest judgment he made after much deliberation.

His eyes flickered slightly, and Ji Chuchen said slowly, "Xiaotan, your restaurant seems to be understaffed?"

"If you don't dislike it, I want to stay with you for a while. I can do any job, just arrange it."

work?

Yu Xiaotan was slightly taken aback: "Brother Ji, do you want to say... I'll hire you?"

you could put it that way.

Ji Chuchen nodded, and suddenly said: "It's just that I haven't done it before, and some things may not be done well, but I'm a fast learner, so you can rest assured."

This... Yu Xiaotan's heart skipped a beat.

Ji Chuchen is willing to stay, and Yu Xiaotan is of course willing to stay.

Yu's restaurant can only be overwhelmed by himself and Bai Junda, and Ji Chuchen is stable at first glance, which is many times more reliable than Bai Junda. If this person is willing to stay and help him, Then many of my plans can be put on the agenda...

But Yu Xiaotan thought for a long time, and finally sighed.

"Forget it, Brother Ji," he pretended to be brisk, "Are you a monk?"

"Cultivators can't go down the mountain for too long without a reason, or they will be expelled from the sect. Don't worry, I will help you find the teacher during this trip to Qinghong Mountain."

Ji Chuchen was silent for a moment, then his voice suddenly changed, lost and low: "Xiaotan, there is something I haven't told you, in fact... I woke up this time and found that my cultivation base has been abolished, and I can no longer be regarded as a monk. gone."

"!!!" Yu Xiaotan was surprised, "Cultivation has been abolished?"

"Correct."

Ji Chuchen had a desolate expression on his face, and looked up at the cloudy sky, his eyes were dim, as if he was burdened with countless heavy and unbearable pains.

"Although I don't remember anything, I also vaguely feel that my injury may be caused by the sect. They saw that my cultivation base was crippled, and they didn't want to raise me as a cripple, so they drove me down the mountain. Every time there are monsters in the forest..."

This statement is half true and half false, amnesia is false, victimization is true, sect expulsion is false, and the pain in my heart is also true.

Yu Xiaotan could clearly feel the desolation of the person in front of him, and the desolate expression in his eyes made his heart tremble suddenly.

When Yu Xiaotan was driven down the mountain more than a month ago, it was also such a cloudy day.

Thousands of miles of thick clouds, dark winds.

The housekeeper casually rolled up Yu Xiaotan's bedding and threw it at his feet, his eyes looking down had a cold light: "We don't raise waste here, you are not born to practice, go down the mountain, stop wishful thinking."

That red/naked/naked look of disdain, like a sharp knife, pierced Yu Xiaotan's chest mercilessly.

Feeling the same, Yu Xiaotan's heart melted immediately.He held Ji Chuchen's hand and said solemnly: "Don't be afraid, there will be a way to cure it."

cured

Ji Chuchen smiled wryly, with a tremor in his voice that even the youth hadn't noticed: "Is there really a way?"

Is there really a way in this world to save a person who has been dug out of his golden core and spiritual root?

"There must be," Yu Xiaotan vowed, "Just trust me."

The main character is the best example.

The golden core was dug out, the spiritual root was dug out, and the blood was drawn out. That person could practice from scratch, and finally reached the top of the continent.

Why can't others.

And... Yu Xiaotan thought to himself, even if he can't do it now, as long as this method exists, he will get out of the system sooner or later.

The sound of the rain is fading and the wind is blowing.

The sun just fell from the gaps in the dark clouds, penetrated the thin rain curtain, and illuminated the vast white land.

Yu Xiaotan's black hair was wet by the rain. At this moment, the golden sun shone like thousands of ripples, and a bright halo bloomed on the end of his smooth hair.

Ji Chuchen's heartbeat suddenly stopped.

The young man lowered his eyes, blocking his momentary gloomy gaze, and slowly raised the corners of his lips.

"Okay," he said, "I believe you."

……

It rained lightly all day long.

When the sun cleared the next day, Ji Chuchen fell ill.

Wind-cold, high fever persists.

The author has something to say:

Season: The strongest golden pill in history Chuchen (smiling): I am Long Aotian, I am used to getting hurt and so on, so what if the wound gets wet in the rain.

the next day.

Ji Chuchen (weak): Cough, cough cough... I feel so uncomfortable, come and hug me QAQ, Xiaotan

Hahaha everyone is healthy, did you go out to play during the festival?
