Chapter 260: Reluctant to Let Go of the Child but Unable to Trap the Wolf
The next day, early morning.
"Our store will be closed later. I wish you a safe journey."
Chef Watanabe has been delivering Huai Shi to the door, and also brought him a specially made cooking lunch box in his store, and gave him a business card: "Probably after a period of time, after the move, our store will be able to open takeout service. It shouldn't have been It's so presumptuous, but Huaijun, you really don't look like you can cook very diligently. If you need it, please patronize me."
"sure."
Huai Shi took the business card with both hands and saw the LOGO of Yesterday's Express on it. Her eyelids jumped immediately. Once the name of Yesterday's Express is attached, then no matter how far away it is, it will definitely be delivered on time, but the price may be too high. It will double upward like a space elevator.
However, if necessary, even doubling it would probably be worth it.
Yesterday at the employee dinner, Chef Watanabe showed him the 'Fenai' style of the secret cuisine he learned from Mount Tengu. The name sounds scary, but it is actually a stew cooking method.
Tengu Mountain's stew not only incorporates a large amount of negative energy, but also uses wine as a medium to boil various precious abyssal medicinal materials into a soup cauldron, forming a miraculous stew.
The wonder and subtlety of it are no less than any alchemy.
Not only can it quickly restore people's injuries, but it can also bring long-lasting blessings of up to twelve hours. Depending on the ingredients, it can make people energetic, not afraid of severe cold or heat, tireless, and immune to deep erosion, etc.
Even without the identity of a cooking demon, Watanabe's skills are obviously far superior to Huaishi's, and it has also opened a new door for Huaishi on the road to dark cuisine.
The Cooking Demon is just the beginning, there are more vast worlds waiting for him to explore... although he really doesn't plan to spend more effort on cooking.
Of course Watanabe could see it, otherwise he wouldn't be so presumptuous - as early as breakfast, he had already hinted: If Huai Shi is interested, he might as well drink this cup of residual... Ahem, he might as well go to Tengu Mountain and introduce the Letter is not the problem.
As a result, Huai Shi declined.
As a senior, it was a pity, but he also understood that for young talents like Huai Shi, dark cuisine was not a life-long goal worth striving for. While saying goodbye, he also handed over the business card of the future store, hoping to help him in the future. He lends a helping hand and creates a good relationship.
This favor was not unfounded, so Huai Shi firmly accepted it and nodded goodbye.
Watanabe's usually serious expression showed a rare smile. After sending Huaishi out for three steps, he turned back to the store and directed the apprentices to start cleaning up various things. Before long, a Hirata freight truck arrived. When they arrived at the door, they took them all the way to the kitten paradise.
Only the empty storefronts remained in place.
Huai Shi rode a white horse, holding the hand-drawn map given to her by the chef, and walked crookedly towards the city's concert hall.
There he should be able to meet people from the Hells Music Association, and hope they can find good luthiers there.
He still remembers his old piano in his heart.
After spending such a long time together, to Huai Shi, it is not so much a piano as it is an old friend who will always be by his side.
If he could restore it to its former appearance, he would not hesitate to do anything. Even if he returned empty-handed, it would just be a waste of time.
Moreover, on the way, he even took some time to touch the trees and flowers on the roadside, just like chatting with a cat and teasing a dog. Occasionally touching a new species would make him happy for a long time.
This is the instinctive joy brought by the Mountain Ghost Stigmata, a growing sense of accomplishment.
As the source matter gradually becomes mixed, the chaotic vitality in it becomes more and more vigorous, and there is order in the chaos, just like the old forest in the mountains. Even if it grows wildly, it has its own rules.
With each new ray of vitality, the source of Huaishi's poems becomes more and more vivid. In the end, it seems to have its own life, jumping constantly. Wherever the white horse passes, clumps of green grass and grass are left on the asphalt road. Traces of shrubs.
Sophora japonica, planting grass everywhere.
Now he understands that the growth method of Mountain Ghost Stigmata is like illegal fund-raising. There are many sources and numerous sources, but the more important thing is circulation.
By contacting different networks for transactions, you can ensure the balance of incoming and outgoing while rolling out the dividends.
In the current situation, there are three major restrictions to suppress him, so he cannot be so rampant, but in hell, only the Xinyue frame is covered here, and there is no defense at all against this weird way of life circulation.
During the battle with the prince, he also found a new way, which was to connect the vitality in his body with the surrounding life network, forming the same effect as a 'distributed server' in a short period of time.
In short, the life of Huaishi today is like a website whose home page is usually colorful and not allowed for children to see, and its vitality is as strong as poisonous weeds.
In this state, the damage from penetrating wounds and blunt blows from heavy weapons will be greatly weakened. If you want to kill him, unless you destroy the vital parts, you can only forcefully dismember the body.
Otherwise, if a 'server' is temporarily blocked, as long as he can bring out a glimmer of vitality in advance, he can retain the most precious seeds and sprout them again after the storm is over.
Well, as long as you can repay the losses of your "illegal fund-raising" with interest in a short period of time, you will be safe and sound.
It seems like... the skill of 'illegal organization operation' seems to be becoming more and more important, right?
Huaishi held her chin with one hand and caressed the flowers casually with the other. She was distracted and thinking wildly, enjoying the peaceful morning leisurely.
...Ignore the constant roars and faint screams in the distance.
According to Huai Shi's rough estimate, he has collected probably over a thousand types of life forms, and there are still about three or four thousand left before the Mountain Ghost Stigmata becomes truly complete.
Although the quantity gap is slightly alarming, it is actually the easiest thing to handle - although abyssal plant populations are not commercially available, they are basically cultivated by major organizations.
Not to mention the Existence Institute, which claims to bring together all forms of life in the world; the 'Stone Cauldron Society', which monopolizes various alchemical materials and claims that ten subspecies are cultivated every day; the Milk Sea Fragments, which grow all things in the Tianzhu lineage, etc. There are countless borders that produce unique abyssal plants. There are three borders under the Eastern Xia lineage that are dedicated to the daily needs of the alchemists in the lineage.
For Huaishi, this is not the most difficult thing. Even if he wants to find rare varieties, it only costs more money and time.
Besides, he didn’t buy it, he just looked at it, wouldn’t it be okay to touch it?
He was ready to go whoring for free.
Therefore, the most difficult thing is the next advancement.
According to what Crow said, it is up to him to decide how to choose. For Huaishi, there are as many as three advancements to choose from!
The simplest of them is not to pursue the quality of the essence, but to eat all kinds of things, rely on the quantity of pure vitality to break through the level, and use the same vitality to change quantitatively into qualitative change, and advance naturally.
There is no need for the assistance of other border relics or the transformation of the secret ritual.
It's just that after advancing in this way, his stigmata will break away from the heavenly lineage and turn into a secret sublimation path of the Eastern Xia lineage. In the end, you can still reach the fifth level, and while achieving the 'Blue Emperor', there is still room for further progress.
But if he does this, he will no longer be considered a member of the heavenly family lineage. It is equivalent to sharing a piece of luggage and going back to Gao Laozhuang to live their own lives.
It’s hard to say whether the Book of Destiny will still recognize him as its secretary.
Although Huaishi has always had a headache about some of the things represented by the Book of Destiny, but now if he wants to let it go away from him... he still chooses to hug the Book of Destiny and shout "How delicious!"
We've been on the pirate ship for so long, why bother?
Although there was a black-hearted crow who often made his face bloody, but he really couldn't do it if he turned against him and cut him off ruthlessly. Besides, isn’t the genealogy of the Kingdom of Heaven pretty good too!
Everyone in the pedigree is talented, and the crow speaks nicely. He quite likes it here.
Therefore, Huaishi could only PASS this option and consider the other two advancements.
In the genealogy of the Kingdom of Heaven, the Tao of Heavenly Questions to which Huai Shi belongs contains many branches - among them, it is based on the "ritual soul" in the first stage, and then diverges as it enters the second stage.
The corresponding ones are the two advancements of Mountain Ghost and He Bo, and when these two advancements enter the third stage, they also have to face new choices.
‘Xiangjun’ or ‘Shao Siming’?
If the advanced person chooses the former, there is a difference - if it is a male, there will be no change, but for females, there will be an additional choice called "Mrs. Xiang".
According to Wu Wu, He Bo's orthodox advancement is Xiangjun, while Shangui's orthodox advancement is Shao Siming. But as a very versatile heavenly genealogy, whether it is Mountain Ghost or He Bo, you can choose between the two.
Each has its own pros and cons.
As the name suggests, Xiangjun is the legendary 'God of Xiangshui'. The pure spirit born in the water can give the user the greatest affinity for water, making it invisible when entering the water.
Its characteristic is that its capacity of source material is terrifying, and as long as there is a large amount of water source, the user can quickly replenish the source material.
If He Bo is promoted to Xiang Jun, he will have an additional talent called ‘Canopy’. While his ability to control water will be greatly enhanced, his source quality capacity will also skyrocket again.
Even if its own lethality is insufficient, there is no need to worry about losses when using various border relics. With a few pieces of high-grade equipment, you can transform into a third-level output maniac.
As a mountain ghost, Huai Shi is not as orthodox as He Bo, but He Bo also does not have the mountain ghost's ability to coexist with plants.
Just imagine, by then Huai Shi will have the ability to replenish source of essence through water sources, coupled with the talent of replenishing life through plants... As long as there are plants and water sources around, he will be an undead little strongman with both blood and blue, making up for his shortcomings. After the overall improvement, the battery life will be frighteningly long.
Even if he is more cruel to himself and advances to Mrs. Xiang, he will have an additional powerful control skill called 'Resentful Entanglement'... Well, as long as the enemy is in the water, it will be difficult to move, and a novice will drown directly. on the spot.
It can't be said that he is not strong.
But without the chickens, what's the point of it all...
