Campus Soldiers

Looking for something to eat...

Brother, I was imprisoned in a painting, you asked me to find something to eat?

For the sake of acquaintance, Cao Xian had no objection, and really set off to find something to eat.

Cao Xian felt that the painting was almost the same as the real thing.

Flowers and trees, air and land, from touch to smell.

Is this a fake?

This ancient scroll seems to be an entrance leading to the location in the painting. When Cao Xian asked Xuanying Xingjun whether this place is considered "real", he couldn't answer.

"The 'real' you think...is the place where you live outside the ancient scroll?"

Xuanying Xingjun's rhetorical question stumped Cao Xian.

Yes, does the place where I live count as 'real'?

"Stop! Let's not discuss philosophy, I'd better find something to eat first."

Cao Xian set his sights on the forest in the distance. This village is next to the mountain. Although it is sparsely populated, it is more fertile than the land in his hometown.

Barren village, Arita.

But it is not the harvest season.

There was no hope in the field, so he went straight into the forest, from sunrise to sunset along the way, and finally collected some food in the forest.

mushroom.

wild vegetables.

The schoolbag is full of it. It was all when I went to work with my grandfather when I was a child, and my grandfather taught him to recognize it.Who would have thought it would come in handy now.

Suddenly, he spotted a sneaky figure.

As soon as the figure appeared, an arrow swished over!

Instinctively, Cao Xian took ten paces and hid behind a tree, with an arrow sticking beside him!

so close!

Are there any hunters here?

Cao Xian pulled his legs to detour, and at the same time the voice came: "Stop, Your Excellency, I am a good person!"

While confusing the opponent, Cao Xian quickly approached.

After getting close, the figure did not move, as if looking for his position, Cao Xian grasped it in the air, and a bone-chopping knife appeared, suddenly exploded and attacked the man.

Approaching, raising his hand, the raised knife was extremely fierce, Cao Xian was about to cut it down, but suddenly stopped!

"Sister Xiao?"

The Xuanbing machete in his hand turned into dots of black light and penetrated into his body again.Cao Xian looked suspiciously at the woman in front of him.

With a hood covering her head, half of her face was covered with a red birthmark, she was holding a bow in her hand, and she had a surprised expression on her face. It was Xiao Muqing.

Cao Xian didn't know Xiao Muqing well at all, and he didn't even say a few words, but he was the one who recited Xiao Muqing in the trial of the Six Clans Ceremony.

Although it was easy, it was considered acquainted.

The niece of the chief seat of Longlin Pavilion looked at him in astonishment at this moment: "Brother Cao? I just thought I heard wrong."

Xiao Muqing didn't like to socialize with people, obviously because of her inferiority complex, but Cao Xian patted her on the shoulder: "You want to make me your prey, so ruthless!"

"I... I subconsciously... I'm sorry..." Xiao Muqing lowered her head awkwardly, and covered her cheeks with her hood.

Cao Xian smiled and said, "Just kidding, I'm fine, why are you apologizing. By the way, how did you get in?"

Xiao Muqing faltered and talked about how she came in.

It turned out that after Chen Zongpo's brother, she found the "Desolate Village Ancient Scroll". It has been three days since she came in, but she still failed to decipher the ancient scroll.

"Isn't there a spirit old man? Just find him and defeat him?"

"No, it's not... This is the world of that Lingjun. How to defeat him? The way he competes does not seem to be a fighting method. But it is true that he must be found first."

"Then what about your body outside the ancient scroll?"

"The body outside the ancient scroll?" Xiao Muqing replied cautiously, "Brother Cao... After entering the ancient scroll, the whole body will enter. Have you heard of "Jiangshan Sheji Tu"? This ancient scroll has a similar function, not just capturing the soul Conscious..."

Huh?

Why is it different from what Xuanying Xingjun told me?

"That's not right, I once heard an expert say that this scroll captures the mind, and being involved is called ecstasy, and he will also come in without mentioning the body!"

Xiao Muqing thought for a while and said: "That expert is an invisible body, right? There are nine truths in the world, but the four false truths'gods, demons, spirits, and ghosts' are born from entities, but they have no entities, so they will not Let's talk about the body."

Cao Xian suddenly realized.

After listening to Xiao Muqing, Cao Xian had his own guess.

This kind of ancient scroll seems to be really a "portal gate" that can transmit him into the painting. As for whether the painting is real or not, it is estimated that if a hundred philosophers come in, they may not be able to tell why.

Cogito ergo sum.

Right here is really good.

Cao Xian carefully asked her about the past three days, and felt absurd when she learned that the food in the ancient scroll could actually replenish the body energy of the participant.

But after listening to Xiao Muqing explain the energy conversion method, I feel that there seems to be a little logic in addition to nonsense.

Eating is also a way of converting energy, converting external energy into your own.

If Yuan Ling is as divine as she said, it seems that Yuan Ling can indeed nourish Yuan Ling.

Wait, isn't this bigu? !

Could it be that the bigu among the monks opened up a similar "ancient scroll world" and relied on the energy of the primordial spirit here to transform the body energy?

Cao Xian didn't quite understand the mystery, but Xiao Muqing didn't quite understand it either.

With Sister Xiao, Cao Xian was no longer lonely. The two went back to the hut, lit a fire and cooked, and after making a fuss, the stove was finally set up.

Xiao Muqing's culinary skills are completely incompetent. I heard that she survived by hunting wild game to fool herself these few days. Her cooking level can be a chef in 5000 years. Compared with savages, she only needs the process of skinning, beheading, and gutting.

So Cao Xian could only take on the heavy responsibility of the chef.

A handful of wild onions, a few pieces of wild ginger, and the poultry brought by Xiao Muqing were marinated, and the fishy smell was finally eliminated. The two finally found some salt in the house, and quickly added it.

While marinating, Cao Xian cooked the dishes. When there were seasonings before, his cooking skills were limited to allow Cao Yun and the Tiger and Leopard Brothers to eat. Now that there are not many seasonings, he can only cook a dish that will not kill him People's food.

Just like that, Xiao Muqing devoured her food so much that Cao Xian didn't know how she spent the past few days.

"Brother Cao! Your skills are really good!"

right?

Cao Xian has heard many people praise him since he was a child, but he has never heard anyone praise him for his good craftsmanship.

Are you starving?

"Hehe, eat more if you like."

"Aren't you going to eat?" Xiao Muqing's mouth was stuffed a lot.

Cao Xian was a little disgusted.

The dishes made with his own skills really can't be served on the table. He thinks he will learn from Mrs. Liu this time when he goes back.

"Ah, I'll look around again, I'm not hungry yet."

It will be late, and the mountains here will immediately turn into a gloomy atmosphere.

Cao Xian didn't know what would appear here at night. The reason why she was worried was because Shi Xiaoxiao mentioned that when she read "The Ancient Scroll of the Deserted Village", she said that the paintings here were all demons and ghosts.

However, Xiao Muqing never mentioned the encounter with demons and ghosts.

Cao Xian wandered back and forth in several rooms, he always felt that this place was a bit special, and Xiao Muqing also appeared here when she came in, so logically speaking, these rooms may have guidance that she has not discovered yet.
