Cultivation till the end of time

I thought the waiter would never come back after he left, but after paying the bill, he stood beside them waiting again.

When he left, Duoduo murmured in surprise: "Why did he serve the food so suddenly? It seems we haven't ordered yet."

"You're talking about this. I just told him which dishes we wanted to order. Didn't you see me gesturing at the menu?

I forgot to say that I can understand the words here.

I want that dish, please give it to me quickly, um, it’s still not as delicious as the one you cooked.”

While explaining, Taowu instructed Duoduo to pick up some food for it.

After hearing Taowu's explanation, everyone looked at Taowu who was working hard with indescribable looks.

Duoduo also secretly complained: You forgot to tell us about the little beast before, and now you forgot to tell us that you understand the language of this continent. What else do you remember to tell us?

After eating the food, Taowu continued to comment on it.

It pointed its paws here and there, asking Duoduo to help it pick up the food it liked, but Duoduo couldn't eat it properly.

In the end, Feng Li and Qin Ling couldn't bear it anymore and took turns helping to pick up the dishes so that Duoduo had time to have a bite.

After taking a few bites, Duoduo lost her appetite. The food here was simply not to her taste. No wonder Taowu had been muttering that the food was not as delicious as the one she cooked.

However, Duoduo, who had developed the habit of not wasting food since childhood, still tried hard to eat the dishes that Fengli and Qin Ling had picked for her on the table in advance.

Just now, Duoduo didn't feel like eating, so he tried his best to pick up food for Taowu.

Who would have thought that Fengli and Qinling thought Duoduo was so busy helping Taowu to pick up the dishes that she couldn't take care of herself, so they helped her put the dishes on her plate in advance.

Feng Li and Qin Ling were also commenting on the food. First, Feng Li asked Qin Ling: "Do you think the taste here is similar to the food culture in the Middle East?"

Middle Eastern cuisine likes to add a lot of spices. Although it tastes healthy, the taste is not very good.

Of course there are delicious foods, but there are more unpalatable ones than delicious ones.

When Feng Li and his companions were on missions before, they had visited local places and tasted their delicacies, and they came to the conclusion that the food in their own country was still more delicious.

But it may also be that you are not used to eating it, so you have this idea.

Now seeing Duoduo’s reaction after eating it, it seems that everyone has the same idea.

Qin Ling nodded and replied: "It can't be called delicious, but it's still edible. They used too much spices, which covered up the original flavor of the ingredients."

Oh, I didn’t expect that Qin Ling, a taciturn person, could give such accurate comments. It seems that he is also a gourmet.

What Qin Ling said was exactly what Duoduo was thinking. While eating, she was commenting on the dishes in her mind.

However, Duoduo still raised doubts, and the object of his doubts was Taowu.

"Taowu, did you order the dishes carelessly and order something that tastes bad?"

When Taowu heard Duoduo's questioning, he immediately became angry and tried to refute in a low voice.

"You're the one who ordered randomly. I ordered it because I saw it said it was the best in the store, okay? Don't accuse me of that."

Since Taowu said so, it only means that there is no delicious food here, at least that’s the case here.

They found the largest restaurant nearby and saw that there were many people inside, so they came in to dine.

As a result, the taste was not that good, let alone the other small shops.

They were so busy commenting on the taste of the food that they forgot why they came here.

It was not until the topic discussed by the people at the table not far away did they remember the purpose of their trip. Otherwise, they didn't know how long they would have continued discussing the food here.

Diner 1: “I heard that a special medicinal herb appeared in the forest. A while ago, many people went into the forest.

Only a few people came back, and I don’t know what’s going on inside.”

Diner 2: “I’ve heard that too, it seems like those who came back were all terrified.

I also heard that those who returned were poisoned and died soon after. "

Diner 3: "Where did you hear that? How could he die of poisoning?"

Diner 2: “The information is 100% true. A caravan of merchants came back from abroad a few days ago, and they told me that.

I have a cousin who was in that team, he saw it with his own eyes, so it can’t be fake.

As for the poisoning, could it be that they were contaminated by something in the forest, causing the collective poisoning?"

Diner 1: “It’s hard to say, we go into the mountains and forests quite often, but we are fine.

Those people might have been poisoned by their enemies, but who can say for sure?"

"..."

What those diners were talking about seemed to have nothing to do with Duoduo and the others, but after listening to them roughly, Duoduo felt that those things were related to the elixir he was looking for.

The magical herb she was looking for was recorded in ancient books as being able to move autonomously, and its moving position was random.

And wherever it appears, there will be poisonous substances or poisonous plants guarding it.

This is the bodyguard it found for itself. It can release a strange fragrance to attract poisonous creatures.

When it stays in one place, it will hide itself in a disguised form, making others think it is just an ordinary weed.

What’s more important is that after it has been camouflaged, there is no sign of any spiritual fluctuation at all; it just looks like whatever it is pretending to be.

This is why this magical herb is hard to find.

The magical herb is called Snake and Scorpion Flower, and it is a magical herb that is accompanied by a large amount of poison around it.

If something disturbs it, it will move autonomously.

Some of the poisonous creatures surrounding it will be attracted by it and follow it away, while other poisonous creatures will lose the temptation of the fragrance and leave on their own after the snake and scorpion flower leaves.

Wherever the snake-scorpion flower stays, there are gathering places for poisons, some visible to the naked eye and some hidden.

Anyway, as soon as Duoduo heard what those diners said, he thought of this magical herb.

However, what Duoduo was looking for was not this magical herb, but its companion plant, the colorful grass.

The neon grass will also move with the snake flower. It is a companion plant and has a mutual growth and restraint relationship with the snake flower.

The snake plant is a very poisonous magical herb, so its companion plant is the antidote that can detoxify the toxicity of the snake plant.

Duoduo whispered this matter to everyone, and after hearing it, everyone decided to go into the mountains and look for this colorful grass in the forest.

But Duoduo was a little troubled, because he heard from the diners just now that many people had already entered the forest to look for it.

Duoduo is not afraid of being found and picked by others. It all depends on one's own ability.

If it was really picked by someone else in advance, she could also exchange it with that person for other things.

The only thing I'm afraid of is that those people will scare the snake plant and it will move away, and then my trip into the forest will be in vain.

It is not so easy to pick the snake and scorpion flowers, and the same goes for the rainbow grass. If you want to pick them, you need to use special techniques.

This is the reason why Duoduo didn't let Lingyun and the others help to look for it at the beginning. Without the guidance of an alchemist, many spiritual herbs would be difficult to pick.

Spiritual herbs are spiritual, which means that some of them can move autonomously like the snake plant.

But the reasons for their movement are different. Some move because they are frightened, some are moved by their guardian beasts, and some are moved because the environment autonomously blocks their figures.

Anyway, there are many reasons. It is very difficult to find a spiritual herb, and it is even more difficult to pick it.

If these spiritual herbs were not needed to refine the Regeneration Pill and the Field-Nourishing Pill, Duoduo would not have gone to so much trouble to look for them.

But there is no point in thinking so much now. I still have to go into the forest to check first. Otherwise, if the spiritual herb is really still in there, I will miss it.

Taowu took out the shiny object from somewhere, handed it to Duoduo, and asked her to pay the bill to the waiter.

When the waiter heard Duoduo's call, he immediately came closer to her, looked at Taowu in a somewhat servile manner, and then asked Duoduo if there was anything she needed his help with.

Duoduo handed the currency in her hand to the other person, then stood up and prepared to leave.

When the waiter saw that they were about to leave, he wanted to speak out to stop them, but he was glared at by Taowu's sharp animal eyes, so he reluctantly withdrew his hand.

After Duoduo and the others disappeared from the store, the waiter muttered in a low voice: "I just wanted to ask for change. If you don't want it, then don't give it. Why are you glaring at me so fiercely?

You don’t have to be so aggressive when tipping, at least let me say thank you.”

As he was talking, the waiter started to feel aggrieved. He clearly did nothing wrong, so why was he being glared at by that little beast?

Taowu only knew that what he had in his hand was the local currency, but he had no idea how much it was worth.

It thought that one pill should be enough for a meal, so it gave one pill as payment.

The currencies of this world are all like those shiny things in Taowu's hands.

It’s just that the colors are different, representing different denominations, and the money in Taowu’s hand just happens to be the largest denomination.

One pill could be enough for several meals, but it ruined the whole fortune of Huo Huo. Later, when Duo Duo knew the truth, he felt sad whenever he thought of the money Huo Huo had spent.

Even though the money wasn't mine, I heard myself wasting it every time and often leaving without finding the change, wasting the money in vain.

As a stingy disciple of Ling Yun, of course he would feel very painful.

Of course, they didn't know the truth at this time and were excitedly entering the mountains.

There is only one way into the mountains, and every day a large number of citizens go in to hunt and collect herbs, so you can find out how to get there by just asking.

This mountain town really lives off the mountain, and almost every household makes a living by hunting and collecting herbs in the forest.

The prey is generally birds. There are many different kinds of birds living in the forest, and any larger bird is their target.

The meat here is mainly bird meat.

After hunting prey or picking herbs, they would set up stalls at the foot of the mountain, or follow the caravans to other cities to resell the goods.

Duoduo learned all these things from a woman who went into the mountains to collect herbs.

The woman also had a veil wrapped around her face and was dressed conservatively, with no skin exposed except for her eyes.

But she is a warm person and can chat with Duoduo. She is willing to tell her almost anything Duoduo asks.

Unlike the waiter in the restaurant just now, he did not look down on how stupid the questions Duoduo asked were, and explained them carefully to Duoduo.

Duoduo also had a good impression of her. Although they didn't talk about everything, they never stopped talking along the way.
