Chapter 225: Searching for Classics
“Delicious, delicious, delicious!”
Hu Tao took three dumplings and stuffed them into her mouth at once, and gave Gu Sanqiu a thumbs up while chewing.
“Sanqiu, your skills are getting better and better… mmmm!”
Gu Sanqiu covered Hu Tao's mouth with his hand, and then used his other hand to wipe the fruit crumbs stuck to the corners of her mouth.
"Don't talk while you're chewing, especially something stuffed like this."
"This rice should not be an ordinary thing."
Zhongli looked at the rice in his bowl: "It has five colors and five flavors, and it fits the internal harmony method. It has the effect of strengthening the body and replenishing the essence. It is very similar to the inch-gold potatoes I tasted last time."
"It is indeed something extraordinary. This is a way of cultivating high-quality rice."
Gu Sanqiu wiped his hands and said, "If we cook this separately, it will become a poisoned hidden weapon. It can only be successful if we cook it together and use a special cooking method."
"Well, Brother Gu's skills are always great."
“Even though I don’t understand what they are saying, it tastes good.”
Chongyun was eating his meal in silence. This thing also had an effect on his control over his Pure Yang Body.
To explain it simply, Chongyun's original pure yang body possesses a power that is difficult for the original body to control, and it is difficult to control in terms of both quantity and quality.
However, this kind of rice can improve the "mental power" of every cell in his body, or the level of micro-control, allowing Chongyun to use his strength more easily and get closer to the realm of "knowing the details".
The others who didn't have such worries were eating happily. Eater No. 1 was swallowing and chewing the rice crust frantically, while Xiangling, who was standing beside him, kept looking at her friend, fearing that he might choke.
“The cooking method is sophisticated, but the flavor is rich. It is completely different . It is very good.”
Beidou poured himself a glass of wine and said, "Xiao Gu, why don't you go to my ship and be my cook?"
Ningguang frowned. "Captain Beidou has been sailing on the sea for many years. It must be very dangerous. It is better not to let anyone on board casually."
"Oh, I know you're worried about this kid's safety."
Beidou didn't care: "But you should think about it carefully. How powerful is the strength this kid showed a few days ago? Are you sure that ordinary dangers can control him? It's good enough if you don't get beaten to death by him."
"That's standing on the land, but when sailing on the sea, the only place to stand is the ship, which is different."
The two of them entered into their daily bickering phase, while Gu Sanqiu picked up a nut and threw it at Hu Tao's forehead.
"Stay for a while after dinner. I have something to ask you."
…
After the meal, Gu Sanqiu raised his hand, and several wind elements condensed together, lifting up all the bowls and chopsticks and putting them back in the kitchen.
Walnut sat on a stone chair, looking at the colorful flowers swaying in the wind, emitting a little fragrance from time to time.
"Sorry for the wait."
Gu Sanqiu wiped the water stains off his hands.
"Hey, Sanqiu, you specially kept me here, is there anything you need my help with?"
Hu Tao held her face with a smile, put her elbows on the stone table and looked at Gu Sanqiu.
"Or do you have something special that you can only tell me when I'm with you?"
"oops."
Hu Tao covered her mouth in pretended surprise, then glanced at Gu Sanqiu "shyly" and quickly looked away.
"Could it be that, Sanqiu, you are going to confess your feelings to me?"
"No, no, I'm not ready yet. I'm not ready to accept your confession. You have to prepare the gift money and gift book, and pick a suitable time and place. You can't just say it right after dinner."
"Next time you act like a show-off, please take a look at who you are targeting. Also, what you are talking about is a betrothal gift according to traditional customs, not a confession between a man and a woman."
Gu Sanqiu held Hu Tao's head, signaling him to see clearly the difference in combat power between them.
"A little bit, boring."
Walnut stuck out her tongue and said, "How come you become so boring when it comes to this kind of thing? Are you still considered a youngster?"
"Strictly speaking, according to my family tradition, being able to joke around with everyone normally is already a sign of youthfulness. Otherwise, my personality would definitely be that old-fashioned."
Gu Sanqiu automatically ignored certain things that happened between him and Xingqiu in the past.
"Besides, this aspect is definitely fun when teasing other people, but it must be very unpleasant when you are teased."
"No, you see I don't have any."
Hu Tao jumped up and pointed at her own face: "San Qiu, even if you tell me in person that you like me, I won't be unhappy at all~"
"I want to calculate how many personal items you bought with my money some time ago. I will send the bill to your Hall of the Dead in two days."
"I was wrong."
Hu Tao sat down obediently with her hands on the table, like a student about to take an exam.
"good."
Gu Sanqiu waved his hand again, and several books flew out from a large house in the room.
"I kept you here today so that you can help me think about whether the Thousand Rocks Army, or rather the Thousand Rocks Group, lost any very powerful team skills during the war."
Gu Sanqiu explained: "Just like a few days ago, when the small teams finally united and released the red giant, there should be corresponding records in your house."
"Eh? It's official business. "
Walnut instantly fell on the table, then stretched out his index finger to push the ancient book away.
"But, there is no record of your family, is this true or false?"
Hu Tao was a little skeptical: "How can my family have something that you don't have?"
"For example, your family has a book on creating infectious disease viruses, but mine doesn't. Help me think about it."
Gu Sanqiu paused: "Wait, if you put it that way, I seem to remember it."
The pages of the book flipped rustlingly, and then Gu Sanqiu grabbed the book with one hand and held it upright in front of Hu Tao.
"See for yourself."
"If this method is forced, it will harm the harmony of nature. If you use all your strength, you may even die. My family seems to have a demon in their heart, and they are bound to act impulsively. I will delete this record from the family's classics."
"If future generations read this, they must remember the duties of the Fengxiang lineage and do not act recklessly!"
Hu Tao was stunned: "Is this so serious? And Sanqiu, when did your family have an inner demon? What level of inner demon can be transmitted through blood? Did such a powerful demon exist during the Demon God War?"
…
Gu Sanqiu was embarrassed to say that this was a warning left behind by his ancestors because they knew their own nature well and were afraid that future generations would do wrong.
This was a very self-aware ancestor.
However, with so many generations of relationship between Wangsheng Hall and the Gu family, there wouldn’t be anyone secretly keeping track of it, right?
"When I knew your family had the ability to create viruses, I went back and looked it up, and that's when I saw these words."
Gu Sanqiu took the book back and said, "I went to look for this thing today. When I saw this sentence, I didn't take it to heart. If you hadn't asked me, I really wouldn't have remembered it."
"I see."
Hu Tao twisted her hair with her index finger and said, "How about this, you come back with me. If you can't find any records, maybe we can ask Mr. Zhong?"
