this growth

The boss of the ship is happy with his son's recent changes, and is also very grateful to his son's new partner. The specific manifestation is that he has opened many places on the ship that are not open to passengers at all to Lao Du's house.

For example, the kitchen—the boat ticket does not include food and beverages. Most immortal cultivators rely on Bigu Dan, but Du Nan’s family is more used to meals for ordinary people. So, before the Du family could ask, the boat boss invited them to “do you want to come later?” cook and eat".

Old Du's family is overjoyed!

The kitchen on the ship spans the second and third floors at the stern, and there are passages leading to the kitchen on both floors. Like the ship's boss and the boatmen, the kitchen is also rough, strong and tall. There are not many stoves, only three There are two stoves, one for hot water all year round, one for rice, and the other for cooking.

Whether it's a pot for hot water, a pot for steaming rice, or a pot for stir-frying, it's great!Zhu Zixuan couldn't even lift his hands!

The rice bowls here are also huge, and each bowl is as big as five or six bowls in Du Nan's house. Spoon dishes, this is already more than his usual appetite, but being seen by the boatmen, I am afraid that he is being polite and dare not serve more. Many people have asked him if it is too little, or if he wants to serve more , Zhu Zixuan shook his head dizzy, those people were convinced that his appetite was so small.

It's not that I have a small appetite, it's that your appetite is really too big - Zhu Zixuan thought while eating as he watched the boatmen stuffing their rice bowls one by one.

Even the youngest brother Qing had a lot of food in his bowl, although it was a little less than the adults, he ate much more than anyone in Lao Du's family.

"How is it? Do the dishes in the Chuanjia's big pot suit your taste?" After everyone finished serving the dishes, the boss of the boat put the rice and vegetables left in the pot together in a bowl, brought them over, and put them between Qing Geer and Du Nan. He smiled and asked Du Nan's family.

"Don't tell me, it's really delicious. The recipe of this big pot dish is very different from ours. It can be said that the recipe is completely different. I was not used to eating it at first, but the more I eat it, the more delicious it is!" Zhu Zixuan praised road.

A bit of a Southeast Asian flavor, this big pot dish is actually mixed with coconut fragrance and a spicy and sour taste of tropical spices. It is very appetizing when poured on rice.

The smile on the boss's face deepened: "Thank you, this is the taste of our hometown, and all the ingredients in it are our seaside specialties. It's rare for you to get used to it, because our home-cooked food seems to be much worse than other places. , people in many places can’t eat it at all, they say it’s sweet and salty, it’s weird.”

"I'll show my skills later and cook our hometown dishes for you," Zhu Zixuan said.

"That's kind, you guys are from the Xiaocang Realm, right? We've never been there before!" The boat boss agreed.

Just do what you say, Zhu Zixuan is a man of action, and he showed his skills that night. To be precise, in order to feed such a group of men who can eat, he didn't leave after lunch, and asked Du Nan to take it from the house. The food storage bag at home came over, and I was busy in the kitchen all afternoon, and directly cooked a large table of rabbit ear village specialties, uh... because there are no tables here, all the boatmen are sitting on the ground, so all the meals are actually They are all placed on the ground.

Because he was worried that the boatmen would not be used to it, and thinking about their taste, he also tried to use their ingredients to make a dish similar to lemongrass curry, with a lot of meat and potatoes in it, and a thick sauce covering the top Zhu Zixuan has never made it before because there is no material. Now it is rare to find a similar material to try. Not to mention, this dish is the most popular among boatmen!

Hearing that it is made with their materials, and the method is not difficult, the boss of the boat asked Zhu Zixuan if he could buy this recipe, Zhu Zixuan waved his hand, saying that this recipe can only be given away but not sold, which made the young boatmen on board extremely happy .

"I have eaten the big stew in my hometown for a long time, and I have wanted to change it for a long time. However, there is no one on board who can cook. It is not easy to make this big stew according to my mother's recipe. I want to improve it. They all failed before." A boatman who looked very young said shyly.

"If you don't dislike it, let me help in the kitchen! Anyway, I'm idle, let me use my strengths in the kitchen. I like improving recipes the most." Zhu Zixuan patted his chest and said.

Of course, he wasn't completely hearty, he had selfish intentions——Zhu Zixuan was thinking about his wife recovering from a serious injury!I bought a lot of soup ingredients in Ling Guijie early in the morning, and I have long wanted to make some soup for my wife. It would be best if I can stay in the kitchen now.

However, he not only stewed tonic soup for his wife. He had nothing to do when he was free. He asked the boatmen what they thought. The young boatman was very moved.

Some people cried!Said that although it is not the taste of grandma, it reminds him of grandma.

Zhu Zixuan: ...

Zhu Zixuan didn't spend all his time in the kitchen. When he had nothing to do, he would still paint.

It's rare for the family to go out together, and it's still such a far away place. Firstly, I want to take a souvenir, and secondly, I want to show Danggui when he wakes up in the future, so he drew down what he saw every day.

It's all about taking pictures.

It was this skill that surprised the boatmen again. Many boatmen asked him if he could take a picture of himself... No, take a picture. The background is in various places on the ship, where the boatmen usually work.

"Thank you, Uncle Zhu. I will give this painting to my grandma when I get home. My grandma will know what my life is like on the boat. When I go out again in the future, if grandma misses me, she can look at this painting and miss me." ” Taking the words Zhu Zixuan gave them, the young boatmen said emotionally.

Smiling, Zhu Zixuan continued to paint.

With the reason of painting, he also logically declined the enthusiastic invitation of the boatmen to take him to the "gym".

After the kitchen, after getting better and better with the old Du's family, the boatmen also vigorously invited the old Du's family to exercise together.

It was only then that Du Nan found out that there was actually a "gym" on board.

Located at the bottom of the bilge, the "equipment" inside are actually all kinds of things that existed on the ship, such as huge anchors, ropes for dragons, and rice bags, oil drums, etc... all of them are complete. Boatmen honed their implements.

The rice bags and oil barrels were fine, Du Nan tried to lift the anchor, and he was surprised to find that the anchor was much heavier than it looked!Not to mention lifting it up, with his strength, even with all his strength, he couldn't move the anchor.

On the other hand, no matter which boatman on this ship can carry the anchor and do squatting and jumping exercises, with this strength-"I can't lift the anchor, but I believe that as long as we work hard, sooner or later we can lift the anchor." The anchor was lifted!" Seeing Du Nan's expression, Brother Qing thought he was lost, and he actually comforted him, and then he took off his shirt and took Du Nan to exercise together!

When she turned her head to look at Brother Qing, Du Nan was startled——Brother Qing didn't look fat, but rather thin, but now that he took off his shirt, he was actually full of tendons underneath!This is actually the body of a ten-year-old child?If it weren't for the height and face, no one would believe it if you took it out!This is simply the physique of a well-trained young swordsman!

But thinking about the physique of the crew on board including the boss of the ship that he saw before, Du Nan felt that it was not difficult to understand Brother Qing's current figure.

It was only after getting along for a long time that Du Nan realized that none of the boatmen on board were cultivators who could push dragon boats and set up giant dragons... They relied on the strength of their own bodies instead of relying on any equipment to move freely between the boundaries. Will be hurt, they also rely on their own strong physique!

Du Nan once heard Angelica talk about body tempering. Now that I think about it, Brother Qing and the others must be tempering their bodies, polishing their bodies repeatedly. Their bodies are their greatest weapons.

After thinking about it, Du Nan really started exercising with Brother Qing.He used to be a teacher of literacy and embroidery, but now that he has hardened his body, Brother Qing is his teacher.

Led by Brother Qing, they carried rice bags and oil tanks and ran to the kitchen above, holding three bags of rice with one hand at a time, and two barrels of oil with the other hand!

Du Nan thought that he would never be able to do it at first, but who knows, after trying it, he found out...

How could he?

"Where did you train? It's amazing! It's still a bit difficult for me to hold on like this, and I may have to take a break halfway..." Brother Qing said enviously while running up.

After recalling it carefully, Du Nan said: "Probably climbing mountains. When I was training with Master, I climbed mountains every day."

He could only think of this reason.

"Mountain climbing?!" Brother Qing's eyes lit up first, then he became lonely again: "But there are no mountains here."

"Maybe we can climb other places." Du Nan said.

What he was thinking about was the tall wall at the bottom of the cabin, maybe he could let Qing Geer practice freehand climbing here, but unexpectedly, Qing Geer aimed outside.

With the rope, he invited Du Nan to practice "mountain climbing" on the ship's wall with him.

"Du Nan, your idea is great! Outside, the keel brings the least protection. Training in the boundary gap must be very effective!" Qing Geer said with bright eyes.

Du Nan: ... Hey... This idea is yours, not mine.

But what is the shelter of the keel?

Seeing that Brother Qing was eager to try, he could only keep up. Fortunately, the ropes on the boat were strong enough. After carefully checking the ropes of the two of them, Du Nan recruited Azhu Ahe as lifeguards. They were really on the outer wall of the dragon boat. Climb up, let alone, just like Brother Qing said, the exercise here is really extremely difficult. The most difficult mountain he climbed before was the Zhuzhu mountain of Angelica, their master and apprentice, and now the difficulty of this "Chuan Mountain" It's actually higher than Zhuzhu Mountain, but it's a slope!It is still the kind that slopes opposite to the normal mountain.

In the beginning, not to mention Brother Qing, Du Nan fell down quite a few times. Fortunately, Azhuahe flew fast and caught them immediately. After practicing like this every day, one day, the two of them actually lifted up. Move that anchor.

Although it was lifted by two people together, it was already very powerful, even the boss of the boat couldn't help but praise it when he saw it.After learning about their exercise methods, he listed that place as part of the "gym". Not only the young boatman, but even himself climbed there every day.

"If you don't improve your body, you will fall back. You can't neglect your practice every day." Chuan Lao said.

In this way, Du Nan practiced with Brother Qing every day. They practiced climbing on the ship together, ran on the deck carrying the anchor together, and delivered oil to the kitchen pine rice. When they arrived at the station, they stopped the ship and docked. I will take a look at a place not far from the ship with the adults. After a long time, the passengers thought that Du Nan was the child of the boatman, and some passengers asked him for help!Du Nan didn't explain either, anyway, he was with Brother Qing every day, and he had already memorized the service terms by heart, and helping out was easy, so he didn't care.

But what he likes most is probably when the boat docks, secretly riding on the back of a dragon, rushing to the sky with the dragons, and playing in the clouds.

It was also at this time that Du Nan knew that when they were waiting for the boat, the Tianlongs actually went to play in the air. Although the long flight was not tiring for them, it was very boring, and they had to play wildly for a while.

One time, Brother Qing secretly pulled Du Nan to the giant dragons while no one was paying attention. The moment the adults untied Tianlong, they flew out with the dragons.Afterwards, the dragons rolled and flipped in the air, and they slid back and forth on their backs.

In the beginning, Du Nan would only hold on to the scales of the giant dragon tightly, not daring to move at all. It was the young brother next door who laughed and showed him how to roll on the dragon and how to slide on them.

This is the longest and tallest slide. When you slide down from the dragon's winding body, it's like riding a roller coaster!A real roller coaster!Look, next to them is Yunxiao!

He had never ridden a roller coaster in his previous life, but only heard the description from his father. Du Nan felt that he had ridden enough in this life!

In this way, from the beginning of riding stiffly on the dragon and not daring to move, to daring to slide on the dragon, and later, Du Nan not only dared to slide on a dragon from the dragon's head to the dragon's tail, but also dared to jump off of them , directly grab the dragon next door, and then slide down from it, five giant dragons are five long slides, the laughter of him and Brother Qing came from the sky, the boss of the boat not only sighed: "Brother Qing is still the first I was so happy once. I was in the village before. I didn’t brag. He is really the best physique. It must be because he is too strong, so the children of the same age are not willing to play with him, so I simply brought him on the boat. , meeting Du Nan now is also the fate of the two."

Zhu Zixuan beside him also sighed: "Who said it wasn't? My son has grown up since he was a child. He said that I took care of me, but in fact he took care of me more. Now he is so happy. It's rare to be like a child. I am very touched."

While talking, Zhu Zixuan actually cried.

The other party actually cried as soon as he said it, the boss of the boat was startled at first, then thought that the other party was from Xiao Cangjie, and immediately understood.As a rough guy, he naturally didn't have a handkerchief on his body, so he had no choice but to change the subject.

However, it was not a temporary thought for the purpose of changing the topic, but a long-standing idea.

It is also because Du Nan and Brother Qing have a really good relationship, and the relationship between the two is also very good. He only asked now: "Brother Zhu, the destination of your family this time is Kunlun, right? You only ask me about the destination of this trip. Which one is located in the east of the Linggui Realm? It seems that as long as it is in the east, there is no fixed destination. You and I have a good friendship now, can you ask why?"

Taking out a small handkerchief and pressing the corners of his eyes, Zhu Zixuan said: "Actually, there is nothing wrong with it. Apart from Du Nan, my family actually has a daughter who was seriously injured to save her mother. Although this is a good thing, it's just that the whole person Before waking up from the coma, a very powerful and kind fairy told us that she could wake up in the end, but I was afraid that it would take a long time. At that time, we would not know whether she was alive or not, and we were afraid that we would not be able to take care of her. , I also couldn’t bear her to suffer so much, the fairy said that my daughter’s auspicious position is the east, so we simply came to the east.”

The boss of the boat was taken aback: "Is this the reason? Your family left their hometowns?"

Zhu Zixuan was also taken aback: "Isn't this reason enough?"

The boat boss laughed: "Enough, of course it is enough, where is your girl now?"

"In Du Nan's space, my boy is a chaotic fairy bone, and there is a space." Zhu Zixuan said it directly because he was also a trustworthy boat boss.

The boat boss nodded, "Okay, then I'll explain it to you."

"Before you just asked me which of the several realms I passed on this trip was the closest to the Zhengdong of the Linggui Realm, and I told you it was the Infinite Realm."

"This statement is correct or not. Among the realms passed by on the boat ticket, the most east of the Linggui Realm is the Wuliang Realm. But not infinite."

The boss of the boat looked at Zhu Zixuan frankly: "That place is the real Zhengdong of the Linggui Realm, the impartial Zhengdong, but it is not one of the stops listed on the ticket, but the terminal of this voyage. It’s also our home.”

"True Eastern Realm—if the divination is accurate, would you like to come with us and visit our hometown?"

The boss of the ship made a suggestion.
