Asking about longevity

The meat in the bowl was light golden yellow and crystal clear. It looked like chicken legs, but it was about the same size as the pork knuckles that Mo Hua had eaten in his previous life.

The soup is translucent in color, with a light sheen of oil, moist but not greasy, and garnished with some mushroom side dishes and some emerald green spices cut into small pieces.

Mo Hua hasn't eaten meat for a long time. The last time he ate meat was during the Monster Hunting Festival half a year ago.

Meat in the monastic world is very expensive. Unless it is a festival, it is difficult for ordinary monks to eat meat.

The meat eaten by monks can be roughly divided into two categories. One is the meat of spiritual animals.

Spirit beasts are different from monster beasts. They are raised by monks and fed with spiritual grass and various other natural spiritual things. Their meat is delicate, easy to cook, and contains spiritual energy, so it is very expensive and cannot be afforded by casual cultivators.

The other type is the meat of herbivorous monsters.

All monsters kill people, but not all monsters eat people. Monsters that feed on various spiritual herbs, even if they are violent and kill monks, will not eat their flesh.

Carnivorous monsters have basically eaten people. If they haven't, it's not because they don't eat, but they just haven't met any monks who can eat them.

Therefore, although the meat of herbivorous monsters has a peculiar smell, monks can still eat it, while the meat of carnivorous monsters is bloody and dirty, making it difficult to eat. Once a monk eats it by mistake, it can easily contaminate the qi and blood, causing meridians to be disordered. Some may even go crazy.

Although the meat of herbivorous monsters is not expensive, most monks still won't eat it.

The physical bodies of monsters are far stronger than those of monks, and herbivorous monsters are no exception. The meat is too hard to be eaten. If you want to eat it, you need to stew it over a fire for a long time before you can chew it and swallow it.

Casual cultivators simply cannot afford this effort, but monks who can afford it will simply choose to eat the flesh of spiritual beasts.

Therefore, no matter what kind of meat it is, it is rarely seen on the dining tables of casual cultivators.

The bowl of meat in front of me has a dense white air on it. Although it is very small, it obviously has a little spiritual energy.

Liu Ruhua waved to Mo Hua, This is the meat of a young fire chicken. Your father bought it to replenish your health.

After speaking, he couldn't help pinching Mo Hua's white face, Look at how thin you have become recently.

Mo Hua was a little reluctant and couldn't help but ask: This meat should be quite expensive.

Mo Shan waved his hand, I only bought half of it, and it didn't cost much spirit stones. And I bought it from a friend of the demon hunting team. We are going to do things together next year. It's a friendship, so I bought half and gave half as a gift.

Mo Hua said: Dad, are you going to enter the inner mountain next year?

Mo Shan nodded: It's hard to mess around in the outer mountains now. The income from killing a monster is too low. If someone is injured, it may even make ends meet. Although the monsters in the inner mountain are stronger, as long as there are some good things in them, we will all I can relax for a while, so next year...

Mo Shan stopped suddenly and couldn't help but laugh, Why am I telling you this?

Liu Ruhua rolled her eyes at Mo Shan and gave Mo Hua a bowl of broth with a spoon, Try how it tastes.

Mo Hua took a sip of soup and then ate a bite of meat. The soup was fresh and fragrant, fat but not greasy, and the color, smell and taste were both beautiful.

This is the most delicious meat Mo Hua has ever eaten.

Mo Hua narrowed his eyes and praised: My mother's cooking is so delicious!

Liu Ruhua couldn't help but laugh, If it's delicious, eat more. This bowl is yours, be sure to finish it. After saying that, he walked towards the kitchen, There are some other dishes, I'll bring them to you. …”

Mo Shan stood up, Let me help you...

When Mo Hua saw his parents go to the kitchen, he put a few pieces of turkey chicken meat into his own bowl and put the rest into his parents' bowls.

When Mo Shan and Liu Ruhua came back with the dishes, they saw that their bowls were filled with meat.

Liu Ruhua was happy and funny: These meats are specially bought for you. At this age, my parents don't expect to make any progress in spiritual practice. Eating these spiritual meats is a waste...

Liu Ruhua held the meat and wanted to put it into Mo Hua's bowl. Mo Hua covered the bowl with both hands and shook his head: I have enough, but I can't finish the more.

Mo Hua covered the bowl and said he would not eat anymore.

Mo Shan and Liu Ruhua had no choice but to give up, but the couple started to give in again.

Mo Shan added meat to his wife's bowl and said softly: Thank you for your hard work these years, eat more to replenish your body...

Liu Ruhua put the meat into her husband's bowl again and said softly: You are tired from running around and sleeping in the open air. You are the one who is doing the hard work. Eat more...

Mo Hua's teeth were sore when he heard it, and he couldn't help but said: Mom and dad, if you don't eat meat, you will get cold.

Mo Shan and the other two had just forgotten that their son was beside them. At this moment, they saw their son's big watery eyes looking at them. Liu Ruhua couldn't help but blush slightly, while Mo Shan coughed lightly and pretended to eat as if nothing had happened. .

Mo Hua nodded with satisfaction when he saw that his parents had eaten the meat in the bowl.

Then I thought, although the meat of this turkey chicken is delicious, it is too expensive.

Although the meat of monster beasts has no aura, it can replenish blood and energy, which is definitely good for monks. It's just that the monster's meat is really hard to chew...

I wonder if there is any way to make parents eat more meat?

Mo Hua put this idea aside for the time being. The most important thing at the moment was to finish painting the open fire array and go to the trading company to find the fat steward in exchange for the spirit stone.

After the meal, Mo Hua went back to the house and meditated for a while to digest the meat of the fire chicken. Since he didn't have much spiritual energy, it didn't take long.

After the spiritual energy was refined, he continued to draw the open fire array in ink painting, and finally successfully completed another one before falling asleep at night.

After that, Mo Hua fell asleep and continued to draw the formations on the Taoist monument, consolidating the memory of the formations over and over again, and reflecting on the problems in his own brushwork.

After dawn, I meditated and practiced, and then continued to draw formations. I drew one in the morning and one in the afternoon. Both were successful, but my spiritual consciousness was also a bit consumed, so I had to rest for a while after dinner, and continued to practice Taoism while dreaming at night. Formations are drawn on the stele.

On the fourth day, my ink painting skills have become much more proficient, and my spiritual consciousness seems to be a little thicker. Or maybe I understand the open fire formation more thoroughly, so I consume less spiritual consciousness. After finishing two formations during the day, after dinner I still had the energy to draw another one, but because I was a little anxious, I made a mistake in the strokes, so the formation also failed.

After Mo Hua fell asleep at night, he continued to reflect and summarize in the sea of ​​​​consciousness, and practiced painting formations with Taoist tablets.

On the fifth day, Mo Hua spent a whole day painting three open fire formations, and they were all successful. His spiritual consciousness was consumed a bit too much, and he was a little dizzy, but he no longer suffered from the splitting headache of the first time. He closed his eyes and concentrated for a rest. Just know it.

So far, the ink painting has used up all ten formation materials entrusted by the trading company, and has drawn a total of 8 open fire formations.

Although there are some flaws and there is a lot of room for improvement, I am generally satisfied.

In the evening, I had a little indulgence in ink painting. Instead of continuing to practice the formation on the Taoist monument, I drew a few comic strips on the Taoist monument just for fun.

The next day, Mo Hua got up and had breakfast, then asked Dahu and the others to go shopping.

Mo Hua put the drawn formation in the storage bag and carried it on his body. Before going out, Liu Ruhua also gave Mo Hua a spirit stone and five minutes of broken spirit stones, asking Mo Hua to buy some if he saw something delicious and fun. , and carefully told Mo Hua to pay attention to safety.

Dahu and the others patted their chests and said they would protect Mo Hua and would not let Mo Hua be bullied.

Mo Hua and his mother waved and went out with their three friends.

Dahu and the other three were very active and jumped up and down along the way.

On the lively stone road, three young boys and a porcelain doll-like little boy were jumping up and down...
