Chapter 359.
Zhang Long’s home.
It was only more than ten minutes.
There was a white-haired, energetic, and reliable-looking Master Teacher knocking on the door of Zhang Long’s house with two handy middle-aged assistants carrying boxes.
After a brief self-introduction, the white-haired teacher looked at the ingredients on the table with glowing eyes, revealing a radiance as if he had seen a worldly treasure.
Hurriedly, he knocked and touched the lamb chops and chicken legs.
And continuously praised:
“Good stuff ah, these are all good stuff!”
“May I ask …… if I can start working now?”
Zhang Long couldn’t help but nod his head when he realized that the other party was looking at him blearily.
And then he saw the other three people carrying the ingredients into the kitchen.
The relative who called had been introduced before.
That flowery white teacher who looked reliable.
It was one of the oldest qualified masters in a certain cuisine.
Now that he had retired, he had been hired as a special chef by the most famous hotel in the area.
It was rumored that if one wanted to eat from his chef’s menu, one had to queue up for a reservation.
Zhang Long didn’t understand any of this and only thought that it was good that everyone was happy.
However, the two people responsible for helping out in the trio handling the ingredients quickly sensed that something was wrong.
“This is not a top quality ingredient!”
One of the male assistants couldn’t help but open his mouth and speak out.
The voice was not big.
But Zhang Long’s was equally not loud.
It caused the people in the hall to hear it clearly.
Some people were a little disappointed, while others were relieved, thinking that those ingredients were only mid-grade ingredients even though they didn’t look bad.
With ingredients of such quality, some of the affluent families among them could still eat one meal a year when they bit the bullet.
The gap between them and Zhang Long s parents family …… was far from as big as they had begun to imagine.
However.
The words coming out of the kitchen right afterward made them all stare in disbelief:
“Only just saw that it’s not top quality?”
“Let me tell you, this is a special ingredient that is only available to Transcendents!”
“Listening to the experts, this kind of ingredient’s beasts might even become demonic beasts.”
“This ah, is the legendary demonic beast meat!”
“A special treat that surpasses the top grade!”
In the hall, it fell into a long silence.
It was Zhang Long’s parents who were shocked by what was in those words, staring at Zhang Long with wide eyes.
Zhang Long looked at the gazes of his friends and family and knew that he couldn’t hide it anymore.
With both hands, he showed his cards:
“Mom and Dad, I don’t know what special offerings I brought.”
“It’s all prepared for me by my senior brother, and I haven’t eaten it either.”
Speaking of this, Zhang Long paused between kung fu.
The uncle who had called earlier recovered from his wooden state and nervously asked:
“You still have a senior brother? You’ve joined the sect?”
“Geez, what’s your senior brother’s name?”
He couldn’t wait to issue his inquiry.
And quickly heard an answer from Zhang Long’s mouth that made him thrilled:
“I’m currently an outer disciple of the Yunlai Immortal Sect.”
“Senior brother …… is Senior Brother Zhou Xuan who has been on TV before.”
“Whew!”
At this instant, everyone in the hall breathed heavier.
The gazes towards Zhang Long became even more fiery.
Originally, they had only thought that Zhang Long had been favored to be the henchman of a certain spokesperson, which was equivalent to being a lifer in ancient times, or a lifer who had been favored by a great official.
Unexpectedly, the other party was far stronger than what they thought!
It directly became an Immortal Master!
Yunlai Immortal Sect’s disciple …… This if the cultivation is successful in the future …… dare not think, simply dare not think of how brilliant this Zhang family will be in the future ah!
Wouldn’t these relatives and friends of theirs also have a chance to rise in power?
Zhang Long experienced the starry-eyed feeling that he had never experienced before.
Every move he made became the absolute center of attention in the banquet.
Zhang Long had thought that he would like this feeling.
Just …… along with finishing the meal made by the chef, he witnessed his friends and family packing away the leftovers with humble and pleasing smiles.
And secretly competing with each other over who packed a little more.
Zhang Long drifted off, thinking that he might not like this kind of hustle and bustle.
“It’s also a way to end the childhood wish of being looked down upon, right?”
“To become someone’s good boy in the eyes of family and friends!”
“Having had my heart’s desire fulfilled, and knowing that this feeling is just so-so, completely unable to compare to the fulfillment that cultivation brings.”
“Somewhat understand why senior brothers are so indifferent to fame and fortune.”
“This mortal fame and fortune …… really doesn’t mean much.”
Zhang Long muttered to himself in his heart before witnessing the last few outsiders, those three cooking trios leaving the house.
With a movement in his heart, Zhang Long’s room door automatically closed without wind.
And then Zhang Long swept a glance at the dining table.
After finishing the meal, the eldest aunt gathered enough courage to be the first to ask herself if she could pack it back for the elderly at home to taste the flavor, and got Zhang Long’s promise.
There were only more than ten bare plates and pots left on the table.
Not to mention the leftovers, even the residual grease on the dinner plates had been scraped quite clean.
Even the bone crumbs that everyone had spit out during the meal had disappeared as if they had never existed!
Zhang Long’s parents were also a bit formal at this time.
It seemed that they were also a bit formal because the status of both parties had changed too much.
Zhang Long sighed softly in his heart, but quietly touched out a bottle of elixir and placed it in his mother’s hand.
“Mom and Dad, this is a small rejuvenation elixir specially refined by Senior Brother.”
“It’s not very useful for cultivators, but it can make ordinary people strong and healthy.”
“You guys take it, don’t tell anyone, if anyone asks just say it’s a health product you bought ……”
On the side of the ancient eastern countries, after the rise of Transcendence, many companies specializing in serving the elderly had expressed their cooperation with Taoist temples or monasteries, and introduced jointly developed health care products.
These healthcare products also evolved with the times by assembling medicines in the shape of dan pill bottles.
Zhang Long had learned about the relevant posts on the internet, which was why he went on to say so.
Just as Zhang Long said this, he heard his mom nod her head repeatedly:
“Just in time, I bought quite a few healthcare products some time ago, and the bottles inside look exactly the same as this one of yours.”
Zhang Long opened his mouth, not realizing that his parents had actually bought these things.
He was aware of the fact that the vast majority of those things were playing with words.
In fact, there was no use of water and herbs that had been nourished by aura at all.
The very few that had the real thing, that was also in short supply, and would not sink the market at all and find so many salespeople to promote them.
“Cough cough, next time you don’t have to buy …… no, it’s better to buy a little bit, but don’t be too obvious.”
Zhang Long reminded after thinking about it.
And then, he began to teach the two old men hand in hand to run the Nourishing Kung Fu after taking the Small Rejuvenation Dan.
At the same time.
In a single house in a certain upscale residential area.
A stout old man with a rosy face and white hair frowned as he opened the door and walked in.
As soon as he entered he looked towards his wife who was fiddling with something in the hall with some dissatisfaction:
“Don’t you know that I have a reception tonight?”
“Why so anxious for me to come back.”
“By the way, my secretary mentioned you swiped five million dollars not long ago?”
“Seems like he also promoted someone directly to the position of vice general manager of the branch.”
“Don’t you fool around!”
As the stout old man said this, he also approached the expensive solid wood dining table and saw the leftovers on the plate.
It was a pile of chunks of unknown meat, bones, rice stained with sauce and a mixture of about seven or eight vegetables.
Such an unattractive hodgepodge the old man hadn’t seen at the table in I don’t know how many years.
And he also saw the plastic bag next to the plate.
Well …… it was still the environmentally unfriendly cheapest kind of clear plastic bag.
Thinking of this plate of leftover food chowder is likely to be taken out of this cheap plastic bag.
The old man was somewhat skeptical that this wife of his was not finally getting old and it was time to be fooled.
“Hmph!”
The burly old man was a bit disgruntled and looked over at his wife who was actually over sixty years old but looked to be in her forties at most:
“You called me back just for this?”
“Don’t tell you the money and position you spent out was for this too ……”
“Heh! Can’t read!”
“This is good stuff! This is what we’re having for dinner tonight!”
Hearing this, the burly old man became even more angry and twisted his head to leave:
“Then you can eat it slowly! I’m going back to the meeting …… By the way, that appointment of yours won’t pass on my side.”
The female madam blankly glanced at the sturdy old man, and then looked deeply at the chowder on the dinner plate, took out the usual knife, fork and chopsticks cutlery and placed it on the table.
And then the lady lady who elegantly sat down, looked at the back of the old man who intended to leave and softly said:
“Do you know where these things came from?”
Hearing this inquiry, the old man stopped his anger and footsteps and turned his head to ask:
“Where did it come from?”
“Do you remember that Xiao Zhang from the branch?”
“Xiao Zhang? What Xiao Zhang?”
“Heh, it’s that Xiao Zhang who has been playing screws for thirty years, got advanced every year, and has been brought to be honored twice by you in the past few years!”
The lady lady shook her head and said:
“I thought that’s all he was, but I didn’t think that he was actually the second uncle of that Daoist Zhang Long!”
“Daoist Zhang Long?”
The old man’s heart stirred, hearing the familiar name he finally quenched his fire and walked back to the table.
And saw his wife use her fork to pick up a piece of minced meat dipped in rice, gently placing it within her red lips to slowly savor it.
Those who didn’t know, would have thought that the other party was savoring some kind of superb cuisine.
“Is he a relative of that Daoist Zhang?”
“Then …… what are these?”
Hearing this, the old man already had a guess.
“Leftovers from their family feast today.”
The female madam replied.
Hearing that it was really leftovers, the old man still couldn’t help but frown slightly:
“Top quality ingredients are hard to come by, it doesn’t need to be reduced to eating leftovers.”
“If you really want to eat it, you can also let the chef handle it and reheat the plate ……”
“Who said this is a top quality ingredient.”
The female lady laughed coldly and ate another small mouthful, saying:
“This is a special grade ingredient that you didn’t get even after begging your grandpa and grandma!”
“It’s real demonic beast meat!”
“It greatly replenishes vital energy, nourishes yin and kidneys, and can strengthen the body and prolong life!”
The female madam uttered the research report on this special grade ingredient that the experts had informed them of when they went for training.
“There are not one in a million of those cooperative programs that have such qualities.”
“It’s rumored that the ones circulating in the market now are all off-sale items circulating down from other worlds.”
“Such a rare and good thing, and you’re still planning to let the chef spoil it?”
The stout old man also nodded his head repeatedly at the words, and then noticing the vibration of his cell phone, he touched it out and chose to turn it off after only glancing at it.
And then sat down next to the female lady, not minding at all as he picked up his knife and fork to enjoy it.
This plate of chowder was not sold well, and it was also already cold.
But it had to be said.
The flavor was really good.
The two of them winded up eating the leftovers.
The chicken bones were also chewed up and swallowed.
The goat bones were hard to swallow.
But it couldn’t stop their desire to eat it in their stomachs.
They were put into the blender and beaten into powder.
And then after mixing it into the wine, it was drunk after the two of them happily clinked glasses.
Until not a single remnant was left.
Only then did the old man reboot the machine, and then began to deal with the various friends who had learned the news and wanted a piece of the pie ……
Because of Zhang Long’s existence.
The friends and family who had gotten benefits from Zhang Long had not encountered any trickery.
However, no one held out in front of fame and fortune either.
Many of the leftovers that claimed to be packed and taken back to the elderly or children to taste the flavor.
In the end, all fell into the hands of others.
And then originally only enough for ten people’s share of the leftovers.
Hardly more than thirty people’s stomachs.
There was also a small amount that was gotten by the research institute and confirmed through research which two types of demonic beasts’ meat it was.
It was also a kind of side proof that everyone didn’t spend money in vain.
Forget about whether the dietary supplement effect is really useful, you can just say that this demonic beast meat is not really from a demonic beast.
When they attend the reception in the future, they can also boast that they are mortals who have eaten demonic beasts.
Zhang Long had met his family and finished dealing with mundane matters.
He didn’t receive the call to go back to the Cave in the Pot, so he followed Zhou Xuan’s suggestion.
He put on his backpack and started traveling alone.
He began to observe the sunrise from the top of the mountain, and bathed in the moonlight on the lake.
Feeling the deep pressure from all directions in the depths of the ocean.
And feeling that it wasn’t enough, he lifted up the lightning-inducing beads and flew up into the sky during thunderstorms, enduring the strike of thousands of thunderbolts.
And as a result, it was captured by many tourists with their respective filming equipment.
Becoming yet another person who should be robbed by Aquamarine!
Zhou Xuan stayed in the Taoist temple just like an ordinary Taoist priest, in addition to homework is alchemy and drawing charms.
Only a little time to read the news to understand current events.
Therefore, he had seen the news about Zhang Long’s lightning strike.
He naturally knew that it was impossible for Zhang Long to be in the process of crossing the threshold.
He didn’t have the cultivation level yet.
It was just that, looking at Zhang Long who had only practiced cultivation for a short while.
And already he dared to use thunder to help with his cultivation.
Needless to say, being able to do so must have something to do with his talent.
This made Zhou Xuan unavoidably a little envious, to the point where there was more or less a hint of jealousy deep inside.
After all, he was the first disciple from Aquamarine Star to enter the Cloud Coming Immortal Sect.
Why was it that in the end, the one who seemed to have the worst cultivation and lowest progress was himself?
Although also a little alchemy talent.
But it was obvious that this talent was still far too poor compared to the spiritual bodies of his senior brothers and sisters.
Just at this moment.
Zhou Xuan suddenly got summoned by Su Ping.
He immediately agreed in his heart.
And then he entered into one of the newly expanded mountain peaks in the Pot Central Cave Heaven.
This mountain peak was eerily arranged by Su Ping as if it was a ghost domain.
Everywhere were extracted decorations or special buildings like the great acacia tree.
As Su Ping’s realm rose, the role of these unusual special buildings was basically useless in Su Ping’s hands.
The products can be taken to those disciples to use to protect their bodies.
The strange tree species that could work on Jindan or below were still very useful to Zhou Xuan and the others.
Bringing Zhou Xuan here, Su Ping spoke in a gentle tone and pointed to a large acacia tree:
“I have sealed the divine soul of a great devil from the Evil Demon Way on this tree.”
“This devil has a rare earth spirit root and alchemy related fire controlling spirit body.”
“I think this is rather suitable for you.”
“Would you be willing to suffer a bit and let me graft the other side’s talent for you?”
