At the same time, I noticed that the person on the bed didn't seem to have any ups and downs.

Obviously this person is the wife of the ghost cook.

The ghost cook stood aside, and I walked over to take a closer look.

It has to be said that the ghost cook's wife is also as beautiful as a flower. It is estimated that the ghost cook and the ghost cook were also a perfect match back then, a match made in heaven.But now his face is as pale as paper, his eyes are closed tightly, and there is no blood on his face or body.

Chapter 2055 The Living Dead

The ghost cook's wife, I noticed when I came in, she wasn't breathing, her chest didn't rise and fall, she was obviously out of breath.

To make sure, I stretched out my hand and sniffed her. Surprisingly, although she looked like she wasn't breathing, she wasn't.

From her nostrils, there was actually a very weak breath exhaled.It's just that breath, extremely cold, blowing on my fingers, the freezing cold spread all over my body in an instant, which made me shiver.

I can be sure that the breath is very weak, if it is not because it is too cold, it is impossible for me to feel it.

I turned my head abruptly and looked at the ghost cook with doubts on my face.

I don't know if his wife is alive or dead in this situation.If she is alive, she has too many characteristics of a dead person.I think her body should be cold too, otherwise she wouldn't exhale that kind of icy breath.And it gave me a feeling that her symptoms were very similar to those petrified corpses we saw in the streets.It's just that she doesn't seem to be so petrified.

If it is said that she is dead, no matter how hot or cold, whether strong or weak, she can still breathe out.This is a typical symptom of the living dead.

Seeing my confusion, the ghost chef explained from the side: "Xiao Ai is dead, but I thought of some ways to keep her Yang Qi in her chest. In order to keep this Yang Qi from dissipating, I thought about it." There are many ways, such as the seven-star life-extending lamp, and I have been feeding him ghost food, in order to find the red fire pill one day, as long as she takes the red fire pill, she will definitely be able to come back to life."

After listening to the ghost chef's explanation, I finally understood.

No wonder his wife's exhalation was icy, because she had been eating ghost food.I also understand the purpose of giving her ghost food, it is just to deceive Yinsi.Ordinarily, his wife's yang life is over, and she should catch her soul and reincarnate in the registration of the Yin Division.

But the ghost chef used some tricks, using the cold air from the ghost meal to protect the small ball of yang energy in her chest.At the same time, it will give Yin Division an illusion that this person is dead.People in this state live in a world of neither yin nor yang.It's like being in a three-way zone, neither the sun nor the underworld.

It all depends on the ghost chef's ability to cook ghost food to come up with such a nondescript method, but it has achieved very good results.

At least it can leave his wife with a glimmer of hope of resurrection.

"Senior, are you sure that the Red Fire Pill will be able to save your wife?" I see that the relationship between the ghost cook and his wife must be very good, and he has done so much for her. If the Red Fire Pill can't save her, then wouldn't he To be disappointed.

The ghost chef nodded: "I can. As long as there is a red fire pill, Xiao Ai will be resurrected. She became like this for me, and I must save him. Again, if the master can give me A scarlet fire pill, I am willing to die to protect this secret. I will also give a large sum of money to thank you for saving your life."

The ghost cook said, looking at me sincerely.I fully believe that if he says it, he can do it.

"But I'm really just a high-level alchemist. I don't have a red fire pill on me." I said helplessly.

"Didn't you also say that you can upgrade to the top level? As long as you reach the top level, you can refine the Red Fire Pill, can't you?" Ghost Chef said expectantly.

I nodded: "In theory, yes. But in practice, it is too difficult. I have been trying, but have not succeeded. I think that if you want to become a top alchemist, you must reach the level of a master. I am ashamed , I am not yet."

"The gentleman is a high-level pharmacist, and he should be a ninth-level Taoist now, one step away from the master. You have achieved such an achievement at a young age, and you must have your own means to advance. You just need to tell me that you still lack What? I'll help you."

I glanced at Ghost Cook and asked, "You said you know how to get to Seven Kill Island?"

The ghost chef came to his senses, and quickly said: "Yes. I know. I almost forgot that you must be looking for the Seven Killing Island if you can find this place. I do know, I can tell you, and even take you there. You can Come and give me a piece of feedback."

I waved my hand: "I don't want any feedback from you, but because I want to become a grandmaster, I must need a kind of elixir, Earth Yuan Pill. The essential raw material for refining Earth Yuan Pill, Fengbao Satin, is in Seven Kills Island Come on. I can break through to the top alchemist only if I am promoted to a grandmaster. Therefore, if you want to save your wife, going to Seven Kill Island is a must."

Ghost Cook nodded: "Okay. I understand. If you believe me, I can take you to Seven Kill Island immediately."

I looked at the ghost cook and asked, "You... are also from Seven Kill Island?"

The ghost cook shook his head: "I'm not from the Seven Killing Island. The people on the Seven Killing Island are all killers. Although I have some fame in Taoism, I'm called a ghost cook, but I only know how to cook. Xuanzong and Wu Dao On the other hand, although I have dabbled in it a little, I am not proficient in it, let alone kill people. The person who killed my parents was the first person I killed, and it is also the last one."

I actually don't agree with what the ghost chef said.

I have fought against him before, although he was stabbed in the right chest by me, but it does not mean that his level is lower than mine, I relied on the power of Shanhe sword to win by luck.

But even a master doesn't necessarily kill people, and I still agree with this point.But what happened to those fishermen living on this island?

I pondered for a while, the ghost cook is very smart, he should have seen my doubts, he opened his mouth and said, "Do you want to ask, what happened to those fishermen I saw on that street?"

I nodded, and the ghost cook continued: "The death of those people has nothing to do with me, nor did I kill them, you trust me."

What the ghost cook said was very sincere. At present, this ghost cook is not as evil as imagined. Maybe there are some origins and reasons for it.Thinking of this, I looked at Ghost Chef's chest with a concerned expression.

The ghost chef saw my eyes, and he waved his hand: "Don't worry, I only suffered a little skin trauma when you stabbed me with the sword. In addition, I also know a little about Qihuang, and I can almost heal myself."

I nodded and asked again: "Then you are not from Seven Kill Island, how can you take me to Seven Kill Island?"

The ghost cook sighed: "It's hard to describe. In fact, this island..."

Just as the ghost cook was about to continue, he stopped suddenly.At the same time, I also suddenly heard a little movement outside, which should have come from more than 100 meters away.

It was the footsteps of someone walking, obviously the ghost cook had also noticed it.

Chapter 2056 Complete raw materials

I don't know if there is anyone else here besides Ghost Chef and us, so I am a little nervous.

The ghost chef was also very surprised. We quickly approached the gate of the Dragon King Temple and listened carefully to the movement outside.

I quickly recognized that it was two people who came, and soon arrived in front of the Dragon King Temple.

"This is a Dragon King Temple. My brother and I have seen it before."

It turned out to be Ju Chengan's voice, so I was relieved.

"It's your fault. I fell asleep, and you didn't stay with elder brother. If something happens to elder brother, I can't spare you." It was Shi Xuan'er's voice.

"Can you blame me for this? He is your elder brother and also my elder brother. Isn't it because you slept so dead? Don't worry, the elder brother is very capable, and he will be fine."

The two of them started arguing with each other outside.

I shook my head at Ghost Cook to indicate that he was fine, so I opened the door and walked out.

"Isn't it good to sleep a little longer at night? Isn't it enjoyable to quarrel?" I said angrily.

"Brother?" The two shouted in surprise at the same time.

But soon, they saw the ghost cook who came out with me, and they immediately maintained a posture of vigilance.

"Don't worry. I had a good talk with Senior Ghost Cook, and he is willing to take us to Seven Kill Island." I said hastily.

"He? Take us to Seven Kill Island?" Shi Xuan'er already knew about her experience, the poisoning and petrification were all thanks to the ghost cook, so she was still wary of the ghost cook.

When the ghost cook saw Shi Xuan'er, he understood everything.He hurriedly explained: "Girl, I didn't intend to harm you. All my food is prepared for ghosts. To put it bluntly, it's ghost food. I didn't expect you to appear here suddenly and eat my food." There are a lot of things. After the ghost food enters the stomach, there will be a certain reaction. First, the cold will seal the heart, and then the chill will spread all over the body, forming ice. From the outside, it looks like a stone man."

It seems that the characteristic of eating ghost rice is ice or petrification, Xiao Ai has similar characteristics to those corpses in the street.

Shi Xuan'er shook her head: "You're not right, I didn't feel any chill at the time."

The ghost chef explained: "That's because you are in that street. The ice I mentioned is actually petrification in your eyes. Although I found out that you had eaten ghost rice by mistake, I couldn't rescue you right away. Because I still have so many souls to feed, if I can wait until dawn, even if you don't come, I will save you."

Don't say that Shi Xuan'er doesn't believe what the ghost cook said, even I don't believe it.

I know that the ghost chef is asking me for something now, and I will try my best to explain the misunderstanding that happened before.

But these are not important now, since nothing happened to Shi Xuan'er in the end, we are all fine too.So for us, it is more important to find Seven Kill Island.As for eating the ghost cook's ghost meal, why there is such a change is not so important.

When people encounter things, they must learn to choose the main contradiction and the secondary contradiction. This is also the theory that my third uncle once taught me.

So as long as the ghost chef can take us into Seven Kill Island, we don't care too much about what he did here.

It's not that I don't have a sense of justice, but that with my current abilities, I can no longer concentrate on investigating the affairs of this island.

But Shi Xuan'er still looked angry and kept staring at the ghost cook.

The ghost cook seemed to have remembered something, and went straight into the Dragon King Temple, quickly brought out the plate of dim sum, and handed it to Shi Xuan'er: "Girl, try this, I apologize to you."

"Stop doing this, you just want to bribe me with a few dim sums? Auntie is not that easy to bribe..." Shi Xuan'er sniffed as she spoke, probably smelling the scent of those dim sums.

I smiled and said, "Shi Xuan. I know you like it. This snack is really delicious. I just tasted it. If I were you, don't be nervous."

Shi Xuan'er glared at Ghost Cook, while taking the dim sum plate.

We all laughed seeing her like this.Shi Xuan'er was really easy to coax, and she couldn't resist the temptation of those snacks, after she tried to take a bite of the snacks, she was immediately intoxicated.

Seeing that their matter had been settled, I said, "Okay. Let's discuss the next step in front of the Dragon King Temple. Senior, how long do you think your wife can last in this situation?"

I know that in order to keep the yang energy in his wife's chest, the ghost cook came up with a way to feed his wife ghost food, but this method is definitely not indefinite.There should be many restrictions.

Sure enough, when this was mentioned, Ghost Cook's expression darkened, and he said, "To tell the truth, sir, at most one month. If you can't find the Red Fire Pill, I'm afraid Xiao Ai will..."

I nodded: "That is to say, within a month, I need not only to enter Qisha Island, find the Phoenix Treasure Satin, refine the Diyuan Pill, upgrade to Grandmaster, but also try to refine the Scarlet Fire Pill. This time It's a little tight..."

Ghost Chef's eyes lit up, and he said: "Entering Qisha Island and finding Feng Baosan, I am sure about these two things. The rest will be done by Mr. If you can help me refine the Scarlet Fire Pill , I'm sure grateful."

I thought for a while, then shook my head and said, "Senior, it's not me who hit you. In the current situation, even if everything goes well after we enter the Seven Kill Island, I can break through to the top alchemist, but I lack the raw materials to refine the Scarlet Fire Pill. .Those raw materials are extremely difficult to find, and they are not ordinary medicinal materials. I am afraid that this matter will disappoint the seniors."

When I was in Qingyun Temple before, I had an exchange with the White Lion Guardian. We have deduced that the bleeding soul may be attacking the five sects at the same time, with the purpose of obtaining the unique herbs in these five sects.And these five kinds of herbs are the raw materials for refining the Great Luo Jiuzhuan Pishen Pill and the Daluo Jiuzhuan Scarlet Fire Pill.They are Xuehu Neidan, Dark Sky Ginseng, Xunfeng Bergamot, Fengbao Satin and Boruozhu.

Each of these five things is the treasure of their respective sects, something that must be guarded desperately.It is very difficult to get one of them, let alone five.

As for the Daluo Jiuzhuan Scarlet Fire Pill needed to refine the ghost cook, these five medicinal materials are even more indispensable.That's why I said something that would disappoint Ghost Cook.

Unexpectedly, upon hearing this, the ghost cook waved his hand and said, "Sir, of course I know this. Since I want to save Xiao Ai, how can I not make preparations. Fortunately, my ghost cook has been walking around Taoism these years, although I have not achieved much. But after all, I have made friends with a lot of people. Over the years, I have collected the five medicinal materials used to refine the Red Fire Pill. As long as the master can break through to the top alchemist, I can provide the raw materials immediately."

Chapter 2057

"Oh?" I was very surprised when I heard that, I didn't expect the ghost chef to have such great energy.Five kinds of precious medicinal materials were collected by him alone.Seeing that the ghost cook is full of confidence, it doesn't seem like empty talk. If this is the case, then I don't have to think about the raw materials, just strive to upgrade to the top alchemist.

In fact, we want to find the Seven Killing Island, and we have some goals of our own, not just for the ghost cook, so if I have the ability to refine the red fire pill for him, I didn't ask him for anything in return.

On the contrary, if he can lead us into Seven Kill Island and find Feng Baodu, I would like to thank him.

The two of us reached a simple consensus. Before I came here, I reached a cooperation with Shi Xuan'er.When we got here, we made another agreement with the ghost cook.

It seems that everything should be viewed from a developmental perspective.There must be a way to get to the front of the mountain. If we are lucky enough, maybe this trip to Seven Killing Island will really be successful.

Ju Cheng'an and Shi Xuan'er could probably hear something from the fragmentary conversation between us.I know that the reason why this ghost cook will cooperate with us is because his wife is seriously ill and urgently needs a medicine called Chihuodan to save her life, and I just happen to be able to help him.

Of course Ju Cheng'an knew that I was a pharmacist, but Shi Xuan'er had kept my story secret to Shi Xuan'er, so she looked at me with doubts and asked, "Brother, can you get the Scarlet Fire Pill?"

I nodded: "It's nothing, I know a friend who is a pharmacist, I can try to get it from him."

Shi Xuan'er is so smart, and she also knows how precious the Scarlet Fire Pill is, and it must be refined by a top alchemist.Now the world's top alchemists are rare, so Luoyang is expensive, and the red fire pill is even more difficult to find.I said so lightly, obviously not telling the truth.

But Shi Xuan'er glanced at me and didn't ask any more questions.

Dealing with smart people will be much easier.They both understand what is right and wrong.Although Shi Xuan'er and I are temporarily cooperating, we belong to two camps after all.The fact that Blood Soul took our five emperors' money is still a sticking point between us.

At the same time, Shi Xuan'er could also see that the relationship between Ghost Cook and his wife was very good, and they valued love and righteousness, that's why they wanted to ask for a red fire pill to save her no matter the cost.Such a man, I believe every woman will respect.So Shi Xuan'er's impression of the ghost cook has further improved.

In the blink of an eye, Shi Xuan'er had already wiped out all the snacks on the plate.This girl is really a foodie.

"Girl likes to eat, can I make some more?" Seeing this, the ghost cook hurriedly said.

Shi Xuan'er waved her hand: "Don't be busy, tell us the story of you and your wife..."

Looking at Shi Xuan'er's excited eyes, I thought to myself that no matter how old or young this woman is, no matter what her personality is, she seems to have a gossip heart in her bones.

I have been talking with the ghost chef for so long, but I haven't had time to ask about him and his wife.After Shi Xuan'er finished eating, she asked anxiously.It seems that our focus is still not the same.

But we also want to know what happened to the ghost chef and his wife. He kept saying that his wife became like this because of him.

But Ju Chengan shook his head, and said to Shi Xuan'er: "Why are you gossiping like this? The most important thing now is to go to Qisha Island. You ate other people's food, and now you are prying into other people's privacy, it's a little strange Really, do you know?"

Shi Xuan'er retorted: "Why am I not authentic? Senior Ghost Cook loves his wife so much, there must be a story between them. This shouldn't be considered privacy, right?"

What else did Ju Chengan want to say, the ghost cook smiled and waved his hands: "Little brother. The girl is right, I don't have any privacy, so it's okay to say it. Besides, it's not the right time for us to go to Qisha Island, we have to wait until After dawn. Since you want to hear it, I will tell you the story of me and Xiaoai..."

Shi Xuan'er snorted at Ju Chengan, turned to the ghost cook, and listened quietly.

Shi Xuan'er originally had a feud with the ghost cook, but she heard that she could take us to Qisha Island, and after eating a few dim sum, plus the ghost cook's character, she also respected the ghost cook a lot.

After the ghost chef came out, he habitually let his hair down to cover his face.

The Dragon King Temple is at least the shelter of the ghost cook, so he invited us to the temple.Although the temple is not big, it can accommodate four people.

After entering, the ghost chef raised his hair up again.It seemed that he didn't want his face to see the light of day.

After showing their faces, Shi Xuan'er and Ju Chengan took a look and were a little dazed.Because this face is so perfect.

Ju Chengan and I are both men, and we were a little shocked when we saw this face.What's more, Shi Xuan'er is a girl who has just begun to fall in love. Everyone has a love for beauty. After Shi Xuan'er saw the ghost cook's true face, she looked at it for a long time before murmuring: "So you are a beautiful man... Before that that face?"

Of course, I believe that Shi Xuan'er is purely admiring the ghost cook's face, and has no other thoughts.

Ghost Cook seems to be used to this kind of praise, he smiled lightly: "Beauty is also a face, and ugliness is also a face, it's just a skin. The previous face is also mine, and the present one is also mine. It doesn't matter to me." different."

I know that the ghost chef's face will change with the alternation of yin and yang every day, but I don't quite understand the reason.In addition, I still don't understand that good looks are a good thing. Why does his beautiful face always have to be concealed?

The ghost chef settled us down and sat down, and asked: "Since you know my humble name, you should also know some of my past, right?"

Shi Xuan'er said: "I know a thing or two. Your family was originally an ancestral craft and a famous chef in the past. 30 years ago, your family opened a restaurant, but was framed by an adulterer. Your parents... died injustice. In order to get revenge, you ate ghost food for your enemy’s deceased father. The title of cook."
