When walking into Happy New Village, Chu Ge forced himself to put all distracting thoughts behind him.

In any case, Xingfu New Village is his last safe haven. No matter how many unpleasant and incomprehensible things he encounters outside, when he returns home, his mood will always get better involuntarily.

It was seven o'clock in the evening, and it should be the busiest time for shops along the street outside Xingfu New Village, including the best time for the wonton shop at home.

In the past, if Chu Ge chose to go home at this time, he would be surrounded by 30 to 50 passionate fans, and he would only let him go if he had to sign a photo and send it to Moments as a souvenir.

Today's Xingfu New Village is exceptionally quiet and peaceful. All the shops along the street have their doors and seals on, and they are closed.

In the streets and alleys, there are at most a few old neighbors who watched him grow up drinking with gusto, and when they saw him come back, they all smiled and nodded, but no one wanted his autograph - no guests, Chu Ge also saved a lot of harassment .

It's not a bad thing, but a blessing from the sky - it is said that a joint exploration team composed of geologists and physicists has discovered strong energy fluctuations in the veins near Xingfu New Village, and it is expected that another spiritual vein leading directly to the four-dimensional space will be born soon. At that time, Xingfu New Village and three or five nearby old communities will become a paradise full of aura.

As a result, the authorities changed the municipal planning with great urgency, preparing to build a nearby area into a new high-end residential area and spiritual industry development belt, including Chu Ge's wonton shop, which is also within the scope of relocation.

For ordinary people who have lived in the old community all their lives, this is really a surprise—because Lingshan City has been designated as a special zone, powerful developers and capital operation teams all over the world are like sharks smelling blood. There is a steady stream of people pouring in here, and the government has recently cooperated with cultivators to jointly analyze and develop the technology of cultivating immortals, and they have also made a lot of money. They are all very generous. Even if there is an ordinary two-bedroom, one-living room without an elevator, seven or eight households with one elevator, and an old house built 50 or 60 years ago, if it is relocated to a new suburban area, the compensation area can reach more than 30 per cent, like Chu Ge The prices of the shops along the street are even higher.

For a while, everyone was happy, and the relocation work went very smoothly. Chu Ge's "Sister Wonton Shop" has also closed down, and they will soon move out of this place where Chu Ge was "born and bred"—this It can be regarded as a small ripple in the fate of ordinary people in the great era of spiritual energy recovery, right?

Today, Bai Meili specially asked Chu Ge to come back to eat the last meal in Xingfu New Village.

It just so happened that Chu Ge could calm down a bit,

Soothe the nerves that have been tensed for more than a month by the Rat Tribe, Bug Swarm, Snake Demon, National Teacher, Bai Ye, Doctor Virus, and Lieutenant Colonel Wu Zhengting.

As soon as he walked into the closed sister wonton shop from the back door, Chu Ge smelled a strong strange fragrance.

Under the warm orange light, two brothers and sisters, Aunt Bai, Xu Jun and Xu Nuo, sat around an induction cooker, looking at him with a smile.

There is a big pot sitting on the induction cooker, and all kinds of ingredients are stewed in "gudu gudu". The protagonist is an old hen with a dignified appearance and elegant temperament. There are large wontons filled with dozens of fillings that are indispensable in the store. This "pork belly wonton chicken" was a secret and exclusive dish that the two sisters, Aunt Bai and Chu Ge's mother, studied for a long time. No matter the year or festival, you can't eat it if you want to eat it on ordinary days!

When the family is reunited, there is no need to say anything, at least wait until the meal is over first.

Chu Ge completely relaxed, sat down next to Xu Jun, and started chewing happily, without any image of a city hero, and without the slightest temperament of worrying about the country and the people. He looked like a hungry ghost reincarnated.

Three bowls of big wontons were swallowed whole, and another chicken thigh was torn out and chewed slowly and carefully in his hand. Chu Ge finally came back to his senses. In the past month, today is the most enjoyable meal!"

"If you're enjoying yourself, come back to eat often. Really, I know you're busy with work. No matter how busy you are, you can't keep running around the clock. You're tossing around outside every day, and you don't know how to go home."

Bai Meili looked at Chu Ge distressedly, "Look at you, you've lost weight again in the past month or so."

Some time ago, Chu Ge encountered an accident and his body entered a vegetative state. Naturally, it was impossible to completely hide Bai Meili from such a big matter. Rao Xu Jun and Xu Nuo brothers and sisters joined forces to downplay Chu Ge's situation as much as possible, and prevented Bai Meili from visiting the hospital. Meidu was in a state of anxiety and became irritable.

In the words she later poked Chu Ge's forehead and scolded, she and Chu Ge's mother are the best little sisters, and they are as good as one person. Since Chu Ge's mother passed away, she also treats Chu Ge as her own son. Treat it the same way.

More than a year ago, something happened to Xu Jun, and he couldn't fully recover after such a long time. Now, if Chu Ge has another good or bad thing, how should she face Chu Ge's old lady under the nine springs?

Chu Ge can deal with the evil cultivators with ulterior motives, the evil awakeners organized by heaven and man, or the terrifying insect swarms without changing his expression, but when facing Bai Meili's caring scolding, he has nothing to do but He drooped his head like a primary school student, obediently listened to the training!

"If you ask me, such messy things as spiritual recovery, superpowers, and time travelers are really not good things."

Bai Meili said with emotion, "In the past, there was no recovery of spiritual energy. Although everyone's life was a little bit harder and poorer, it was safe and sound, and there were not so many troubles.

"Now you see, once the spiritual energy is revived, you children's hearts are wild. Relying on some superpowers, you are making trouble outside the palace. You don't know your own name. How do you know that our family is an adult? , How scared are you in your heart?

"Chu Ge, do you know that every morning when I wake up, before making the first plate of wontons, I will offer three sticks of incense to your mother, hoping that her spirit in the sky will keep you safe and sound, whether you have a mission or not. What matters? The key is that you have 36,000 fine hairs all over your body, and you can't lose half of them!

"Really, it's not that Aunt Bai is talking about you. The mission belongs to the alliance, and the body belongs to oneself. From now on, don't fight like this again. Go home more often when you have time. Aunt Bai will cook delicious food for you.

"Oh, seeing how thin you are now, Xu Jun and Xu Nuo said that you were still lying on the hospital bed for ten and a half months a while ago. It's better."

"Come on, Aunt Bai, it's easy to go from frugal to extravagant, but difficult to go from extravagant to frugal. Although the recovery of spiritual energy has brought about changes and risks, the benefits are endless for three days and three nights."

Chu Ge was grinning, pointing at the ingredients in the induction cooker with his chopsticks, "Don't say anything else, just say that the ingredients in our household are specially provided by the Little Palace Master and their cultivation club? These pigs, cows, chickens Ah, all kinds of delicacies from mountains and seas are all exquisite products that collect the aura of heaven and earth, absorb the essence of the sun and the moon, and are born and grown in the blessed land of the cave. In a less strict sense, these are all monsters that have become fine. Moreover, it contains trace elements, minerals and ten times the nutrients. Eating it prolongs life, nourishes yin and nourishes yang, and it can even rejuvenate your youth! If it weren’t for the revival of spiritual energy, we would be able to eat such good things?”

"That's true. The ingredients brought by the little palace master and the others are indeed very fragrant. They are more fragrant than any local chicken or pig. They are also chewy and have endless taste. Seven or eight kinds of meat fillings are mixed together to produce more than a dozen. Come in ten flavors."

Bai Meili thought for a while, and had to admit, "Well, this can be regarded as a benefit brought by the recovery of spiritual energy. Also, I remembered, Aunt Zhao from the fourth building, the second child of their family works at the Pegasus Electric Vehicle Factory. It turned out that the efficiency of the factory was not very good. The couple always found faults and fought and divorced. Every time Aunt Zhao came to dance in the square, she would sigh and be unhappy.

"Recently, I heard that their factory is cooperating with cultivators to develop new energy vehicles. They have a clue, and they have attracted a lot of investment. For several months in a row, the front-line workers have been paid double bonuses, and they even danced with Aunt Zhao. The square dance is full of energy. Yesterday I was wearing a colorful silk shirt. She said that the second child respected her, and she was so happy that her eyebrows almost fell off. By the way, this silk shirt seems to be from the world of cultivating immortals. It is said that it is a thousand-year-old ice silkworm that spins silk, it is warm in winter and cool in summer, and you can wear it to sleep in summer, and you don’t need to turn on the air conditioner at night, do you think I should get one as well?”
