Xiaoyaoshanjun

While the man and the rabbit were chatting, a stone door in the cave made a friction sound.

After the stone door sounded, Tian Buli and Huang Tu both smelled the aroma of meat.

A middle-aged man carrying a big pot came out, looked around, and quickly walked towards Tian Buli.

"The meal is ready! Where did this person go? It's so hot!"

Tian Buli stood up and made room for him, pushing the tea set on the table aside.

The middle-aged man quickly put the big pot on the ground. He squatted down and put the big pot that smelled of meat on the ground in a very uncouth manner.

Tian Buli asked curiously, "Sir, why don't you put the pot on the table?"

Wu Dian smiled and said, "What do you mean by sir or not? My name is Wu Dian, and I do odd jobs and cook here. This table is so clean. If it gets stained with soot, the shopkeeper will definitely scold me again."

Tian Buli saw that this person had some cultivation, so he squatted down and said, "So are we going to sit down and eat here? Meeting is fate, I wonder if you can give me two bowls, I can pay for the meal, any amount is fine."

When Wu Dian saw Tian Buli's clothes, he knew that this man came from an extraordinary family, and his speech and behavior did not seem like that of a person who would just sit around and cheat people.

"This is a pharmacy, not a canteen. I see that you are very young, so it's easy to say how much you want. But what if others really ask you for a hundred taels of silver for a meal after hearing what you said?"

Tian Buli smiled and said, "To be honest, I haven't had a proper meal for more than 20 years. Even if I eat something, it's for cultivation. I don't know when I forgot about the desire for food. Now, let alone 100 taels, even 500 taels is affordable."

Wu Dian was surprised when he heard this and asked, "You haven't eaten for more than 20 years?"

Tian Buli answered honestly, "I usually eat copper pills and drink iron juice, and I have also eaten meat covered with electric needles. I have breathed in the evil wind from the sky, and have been exposed to smoke, fire, wind and sun. It is true that I have not had a good meal in many years."

Wu Dian was shocked and surprised. He quickly carried the big iron pot to the big table with both hands and put it down.

"Then it's not that complicated. This is the black sand pig monster meat I bought from the foot of the mountain. It took me half a month to stew the skin and meat. Wait a minute, I'll go get the red rice."

"Thank you."

Tian Buli thanked him politely.

At this time, a woman in her thirties or forties, along with a man, a woman and a servant, came out from a passage in the cave.

When Wu Dian saw the four people coming out, he said awkwardly, "This Taoist priest hasn't eaten for many years. He wants to have a meal with us. I'll go and prepare it. You have to entertain him well."

Clothes make the man, and saddles make the horse. Tian Buli was no nobody.

He was wearing divine robes, emitting a majestic and powerful aura from the inside out.

Ordinary children and mortals could not feel Tian Buli's true level. The several cultivators in the cave were also unable to feel Tian Buli's limits. They only felt that this person was unfathomable and definitely not an ordinary person.

The woman led the three people over, took the initiative to greet and said: "I heard that it was Elder Tian from Yanxia Mountain who came from afar. I am Zhu Hong'e, the owner of Baicao Cave, and I am honored to meet Elder Tian."

Tian Buli smiled and replied, "You are too polite, Cave Master. I am just a newcomer to Tiexin Valley and was planning to pay my respects to the Valley Master. I stopped by here to buy some herbs."

Zhu Hong'e said politely, "Master, please take a seat. I heard that Elder Tian has a high level of cultivation. He appeared at the Tianxian Sect two years ago, and then I heard that he went back to practice in seclusion."

Tian Buli said, "That's right. I've been in seclusion for a long time. I came out for a walk after making some breakthroughs. I've recently practiced a technique called Four Winds and Four Methods, which is the Smoke and Mist Mountain Thunder Cloud Wind and Fog Four Methods, combined with the four types of wind."

"I came to Tiexin Valley to collect some strange fire. I heard from fellow Taoists that there are many strange fires here, so it shouldn't be a difficult task."

Zhu Hong'e frowned, thought for a moment and said, "I wonder what kind of strange fire Elder Tian wants?"

At this time, Wu Dian came out quickly with a bucket of rice, and said quickly, "Master, don't listen to her nonsense. Our Baicao Cave is just a small shop in Tiexin Valley. You are an immortal who is on par with the Heavenly Fairy. How can you have a woman who has practiced Taoism for more than ten years and talk to you?"

Zhu Hong'e was very unhappy and scolded Wu Dian coldly: "You have no place to speak here!"

Tian Buli smiled and said, "Every family has its own problems. I have no intention of disturbing what is going on here. I just came here to do some business. But cultivation is as easy as breathing to me. I don't need to practice the Four Winds and Four Methods, but it should be okay to have a meal, right?"

Collecting strange fire is not that important to Tian Buli.

The Four Winds and Four Methods are not powerful spells. They are spells that I mastered by accident and practiced when I had nothing to do.

Compared with the Four Winds and Four Methods, Tian Buli still wanted to have a good meal.

Now that my appetite has been aroused, I really don’t want to leave without eating a bowl of rice.

Wu Dian smiled and said, "Of course, Taoist priest, please enjoy. I usually make some food by myself, and some of them just smell delicious, but my cultivation is low, and I feel uncomfortable after eating them. I can only stand aside and smell them and I am satisfied."

Tian Buli took out the fine wine from his arms and said, "This is the thunder liquor that can increase your cultivation. It is not easy to preserve. It will dissipate in less than half an hour. Fellow Daoist, please sit down and drink with me."

The little yellow rabbit quickly jumped onto the table, "Master, let me pour you some wine!"

Tian Buli looked at the little rabbit who offered to help and explained to Wudian, "This is my little boy. He has been following me since I was a Taoist. He eats and sleeps with me. There are no outsiders here today, so let him eat with us."

I hurriedly said, "Master, please have some. I won't eat it."

Tian Buli extended his hand and said, "Fellow Daoist, please take a seat. I can't even finish this pot of rice, so you don't have to worry about feeling sick after eating it. If you drink two sips of this wine, you will have ten years of Daoist attainments, so eating this monster meat won't be a problem."

"Just sit down and enjoy your drink. I also know a little bit about medicine."

Tian Buli took out a wine glass and placed it on the table, warmly entertaining the cook.

I said hurriedly, "Forget it, this is all I have in this life. Can you give my children a glass of this magical wine?"

Zhu Hong'e and the young master and young lady beside him looked at Tian Buli expectantly.

Before, I thought that Tian Buli who came here on his own initiative was a customer who wanted to discuss business, but after being reminded by Wu Dian, I realized that he was an extremely important person!

"Of course you can. Huangtu and I will each have one cup, and the rest are for you. You can divide it among yourself."

Tian Buli asked Huang Tu to pour two cups of thunder juice, and gave the rest of the pot of wine to Wu Dian.

Wu Dian said excitedly: "Thank you, Taoist Priest!"

Tian Buli quickly took out his chopsticks and started eating. After years of eating and drinking at home, his basic sense of taste and appetite had been worn out. It was rare for him to come across delicious food that whetted his appetite.

The pork in the iron pot is iron red in color, and the aroma in the air is not only the aroma of meat, but also the aroma of herbs and minerals.

There was a packet of stewed seasoning in the pot. Although it had the casual and rough taste unique to that era, it tasted very good indeed.

The pork soup was blood red with blood bubbles coming out of it. In order to neutralize this strange color, side dishes such as apples, hawthorns, mushrooms and corn were put into the pot.

Tian Buli ate a piece of pork and quickly exclaimed: "The meat is fat, tender and juicy, sweet and fragrant but not greasy. One bite is enough to go with a big bowl of rice. It's really good meat!" Wudian handed the Leijiang wine to Zhu Hong'e, and stood aside to entertain the guests.

"Master, you have a good eye. A 500-year-old pig demon was transported to the foot of Shangyue Mountain. Ordinary people can't eat this kind of pork. I bought a few pieces at a low price and cooked several pots before I figured out how to make it. That's when I happened to meet you!"

Tian Buli smiled and said, "Sit down and eat together. I can't finish it by myself. I'm out of Thunder Lava Wine, but I still have a bottle of Spring Rain Spirit Liquid. Drink it yourself. How can a man always care about others and ignore himself?"

Tian Buli scolded the good man Wudian, "You are the sun. Others rely on you for warmth. If you are just a fire, when you go out, others will leave. You should take care of yourself before you take care of others. Not to mention us monks, even the men in the fields should give food to the workers first, not to the children!"

Looking at the bottle of elixir that Tian Buli handed over, Wu Dian said gratefully: "Thank you for your help, Taoist priest. To be honest, my three generations of ancestors and grandchildren are all sinners who cannot see the light of day. It is a blessing to be able to marry and have children. If there are any good things, I will naturally think of my family. I just hope that they have nothing to do with us."

Tian Buli asked curiously, "What crime have you committed? Have you offended the important people here? I think my words are effective. For the sake of this meal, I will help you say a word."

Wu Dian said quickly: "How dare I trouble you all the time, Taoist priest? This meal is not worth much."

Tian Buli smiled and said, "I am willing to help you, even though money cannot buy me. Just accept it."

Wu Dian’s wife Zhu Hong’e looked at Tian Buli and sighed, “Thank you for your kindness, Taoist Tian, ​​but this matter has nothing to do with the Valley Master. It’s just that his ancestors offended the Holy Emperor, and after that, all of his descendants were demoted to criminals, and their descendants were forbidden to leave their hometowns, study, or become officials for the rest of their lives.”

Tian Buli asked curiously: "Who is your ancestor?"

It seems that not many people can be severely punished by the good-natured Holy Emperor.

Even those people who practiced the sorcery arts in Hanyang Province this time, at most their property would be confiscated. Except for the main culprit, the others would not be sentenced to death. At most, they would be fined and sent back to their hometowns, and their nine clans would not be implicated.

Wu Dian said with a bitter face: "I was born like this. I heard that our ancestor was the ancestor of Yaowang Mountain. Since the ancestor ascended to heaven, thousands of people in our lineage have been punished. The specific reason is still unknown."

Tian Buli smiled and said, "I see. I can't help you with this. But since you are the descendant of the ancestor of Yaowang Mountain, I will give you a pot of wine and a bottle of medicinal dew. It is indeed fate."

Wu Dian asked curiously, "Does the Taoist priest know my ancestor?"

"I don't know him." Tian Buli smiled. "Let's eat. This is just a favor for us. You have to take care of yourself in the future. I can only help you temporarily, not forever."

Wu Dian said quickly: "Yes! Taoist priest, I will never forget your kindness!"

Tian Buli didn't care about this favor. After eating and drinking, he took the yellow rabbit away.

Recalling that after I got the dog pot, I traced it and found the silver bracelet.

Now it is roughly clear that the family fled to Yanque County and had no intention of exposing themselves. Even if they were blamed, they dared not make it public.

The little white rabbit used the dog pot for quite some time after getting it, and now he makes something delicious every day to reward himself.

Now, thanks to a meal, we have figured out the whole cause and effect, and it can be considered that an old matter has been closed.

Tian Buli, wearing a bright red Taoist robe, quickly landed on Shouyang Peak.

The well-fed Yellow Rabbit touched his stomach with one hand while looking at the bustling crowd around him.

The area nearby doesn't look like an immortal sect, but more like a gang base where heroes from the martial arts world gather.

Tian Buli's eye-catching outfit quickly attracted a lot of people's attention. Many masters also looked at this young monk who was very stylish and wearing precious clothes.

Two middle-aged Taoists carrying long swords came over and saluted Tian Buli politely.

"Does the Taoist priest have an invitation?"

Tian Buli smiled and said, "I am Tian Buli from Yanxia Mountain. I don't have an invitation. May I ask if the Valley Master is here?"

The Taoist priest with the sword on his back glanced at Tian Buli, then looked down at the quiet and well-behaved yellow rabbit.

"So it's Elder Tian. It's said that Elder Tian had a white rabbit, but how did it turn into a yellow rabbit?"

The Taoist with a sword on his back knew about the White Rabbit from hearsay, so he was a little skeptical.

Tian Buli smiled and said, "This yellow rabbit has followed me to the Tianxian Sect before. At that time, I brought a yellow rabbit and a white rabbit. I have five rabbits in total, and two black rabbits and a gray rabbit. I don't usually bring all of them with me."

After hearing Tian Buli's explanation, the Taoist monk with a sword on his back felt that the cultivation level of the person in front of him was indeed not bad.

"Master, please wait a moment. I will go and report to the hall master!"

As soon as the Taoist with the sword on his back finished speaking, a beam of fire flew out from the hall and fell directly towards this side.

Tian Buli raised his head and looked over. The person coming over was a middle-aged old man with a head full of burning red hair.

The old man had red hair and a red beard, like a devil.

When he landed, fire ignited from his feet in all directions.

Tian Buli raised his hand and waved it slightly.

Suddenly a strong wind came howling!

It was like a hurricane that could blow planets away, extinguishing all the flames on the red-haired Taoist priest's body and blowing him back more than ten meters.

The group of monks behind the old Taoist were directly blown away!

The Taoist priests were caught off guard and flew to the mountain gate hall at the back like defeated soldiers.

Tian Buli quickly withdrew his hand and apologized to the shocked white-haired old man.

"Don't blame me, Taoist priest. I have no ill intentions. I just had a rare full meal and forgot to be careful and restrained myself."

Taoist Tieyang put his hands in front of him and saluted, "Fellow Daoist, your magic power is very strong, ten times stronger than mine. I know from Yu Leizi that you are very powerful, stronger than Yu Leizi. I wanted to test you just now, but I don't want to embarrass myself now."

Tian Buli saw that the person in front of him was the master of Tiexin Valley, and hurriedly said, "Greetings, Master. There is a lot of contact between Yanxia Mountain and Tiexin Valley. I have been practicing Taoism for many years. I just happened to come to the banquet today to bother you. Please don't blame me, Master."

Taoist Tieyang said with a smile: "In the immortal world and the human world, strength is everything. It is a blessing for me to be able to make friends with such a talented person as Taoist friend. Taoist Master, please follow me into the hall and take a seat!"

Tian Buli was a guest of honor in the Tianxian Sect, so Taoist Tieyang naturally had to give him enough face.

"Then excuse me."

Tian Buli showed his strength and quickly won the respect of everyone in Tiexin Valley. (End of this chapter)
