Cultivating Immortals From Prison

Chapter 249 Reluctant, Westward Journey

The first steamed cage became a dish in the dinner for the three of them.

The second steamed cage became Gu Xiao's late-night dessert.

The steamed third and fourth cages were packed by Zheng Lin in delicate boxes.

The night is late, and the night in late autumn is extraordinarily quiet. The people in Beijing all go home early to rest. Sometimes there are footsteps on the road, the crickets in the grass sing beautiful songs, and the leaves clap each other. .

But in such a quiet night, the chimney of Gu's kitchen was still emitting white smoke.

A gust of north wind blew by, bringing the feeling of autumn, rolling up the golden sycamore leaves on the ground.

A sycamore leaf fluttered in the wind and landed in front of the main house door, and then a foot stepped out and stepped on the golden sycamore leaf, making a slight crackling sound.

Gu Shen walked out of the main room, came to the kitchen, looked at Zheng Lin who was still busy inside, and said, "Senior Sister, it's late at night, let's go to bed early."

The cakes made by Zheng Linzheng are very different from the cakes in the capital of the Yin country and the southern cakes. They come from the dry country in the west, and they have a unique taste. It is extremely complicated, sophisticated, time-consuming and energy-intensive, so Zheng Lin only makes one or two cages on weekdays, but today
In the kitchen, the tables, tables, pots and pans are all neatly arranged and very clean.Under the yellowing candlelight, Zheng Lin was wearing a plain, narrow-sleeved deep dress and was concentrating on wrapping the pastry. Steam was rising from the steamer next to her, and the water vapor permeated the entire kitchen, making the inside shrouded in clouds and mist, like a fairyland.

Zheng Lin focused on steaming pastries, and didn't notice Gu Shen outside the kitchen. Now that Gu Shen suddenly made a noise, she looked up and said with a smile, "Junior Brother, you go to rest first, I still have a few baskets here."

"Senior sister, if you steam too much, it will be wasted."

"Don't waste it, you're going far away this time, and you're going to stay outside for a long time. I'll steam some more pastries, and you can bring some more. If you're hungry on the way, and if you miss me and Xiaoxiao, just take them out Eat a piece."

Seeing the senior sister's insistence, Gu Shen knew that she would not stop even if he said bad words, so he let her steam all the remaining pastries.

Gu Shen didn't go back to the house either, but walked into the kitchen.

"It's very choking in here, what are you doing here? Get out quickly." Zheng Lin opened her mouth and hurried.

Gu Shen shook his head, sat down in front of the stove, and said: "I want to talk to you for a while, since you won't go back to the house, then I will stay here with you."

Seeing this, Zheng Lin smiled lightly and said, "Since you want to be here, then sit there. I remember that you were a disciple of Huozaofang back then. I don't know if you can make a fire?"

Gu Shen smiled and said, "I was in the slaughter area at the time, so I wasn't in charge of lighting the fire, but it shouldn't be difficult."

As Gu Shen was talking, he picked up a small piece of wood at his feet and threw it under the stove. Looking at the flames burning under the stove, the flames seemed to reflect his past experiences. It reappears in front of my eyes.

"Sun Fengqing."

"Deacon Zhang."

"Old Li."

"Deacon Zhou."

"."

Unfamiliar yet somewhat familiar faces.

Before he knew it, more than ten years had passed. At that time, he was still a rookie in the cultivation world who had just entered the Qi refining stage.

The only sect that Gu Shen has worshiped in his life is the Qingyun Sect. Among them, some people want to kill him, some want to harm him, and some love him. If we talk about it in detail, he and Qingyun Sect really have an inseparable karma.Back then when Qingyun Sect was destroyed, only Sun Fengqing was filled with righteous indignation and vowed to kill Yulingzong and seek justice from Pei Long, the master of Yulingzong, a powerful monk. Although Gu Shen was heartbroken for Deacon Zhang and Deacon Zhou at that time, But he didn't even think about seeking revenge from Pei Long.

Now that time has passed, Gu Shen suddenly thought in his heart, is he also obliged to go to Yulingzong for Qingyunmen, and to settle with Pei Long?

Zheng Lin was sitting in front of the counter, wrapped in cakes, she didn't hear Gu Shen's voice, turned her head to look, and saw Gu Shen staring at the flames under the stove in a daze, "Junior Brother, Junior Brother."

Zheng Lin called out.

Gu Shen heard the voice, looked up at Zheng Lin, and said, "Senior Sister?"

Zheng Lin laughed and said, "What are you thinking about? You're so preoccupied? I asked you to light a fire there. Look at the fire."

Gu Shen looked down the stove, and at some point, the firewood under the stove was almost burnt out, only a few flames were left, if it was a little later, the fire would have been extinguished, so Gu Shen hurriedly slowed down. Slowly add more firewood and start the fire again.

Seeing Gu Shen's flustered look, Zheng Lin couldn't help but smile, under the yellowed candlelight, she was as bright as a flower.

Wrapping the pastry in her hand, Zheng Lin said: "Junior brother, you have a long journey this time. The road is windy, frosty, rainy and snowy. Remember to take care of your health. I know that you promise a thousand gold. Since you have promised others, then do it."

Gu Shen nodded and said, "I see, Senior Sister.

"I will go out this time and deliver my things, and I will rush back immediately, so I won't stay outside."

The main purpose of Gu Shen's trip this time was to send the relic of an unknown monk to the Great Leiyin Temple in Xitu.Gu Shen is not a pedantic person, if the other party is a treacherous and evil person, he will naturally not keep his promise, but if the other party is not a treacherous and evil person, he will keep his promise.

Apart from the main purpose of sending relics, there was another thought that prompted Gu Shen to go on this long trip.Compared with the vast world outside, the territory he is now is just a small pond after all, and no real dragon can grow in the pond.

In the former Qingyun Sect, Biyun Sect, Chixingyuan and other small and medium-sized sects, Jindan stage monks are already standing at the top, and the number is very small. They want to quickly improve by absorbing Yin Qi. The only way to jump out of this pond is to try your luck outside.

Maybe he could find an opportunity to break through to the realm of transforming gods when he went out this time. For that realm, Gu Shen has longed for it for a long time.Gu Shen still remembers the shock in his heart when he saw the ruins of Qingyunmen for the first time, it was a kind of trembling and horror coming from the soul!Such a tall and majestic Wanzhang Juyue was forcibly intercepted by more than half, what kind of power is this? !

Although Gu Shen already has the powerful magic power to cut mountains and streams, the powerful level monk has become a knot in his heart. Only when he breaks through to the stage of transforming gods and becomes a powerful man in the world can he be a real high-level powerhouse in the cultivation world !
The phrase 'Under great power, everyone is an ant' is not a simple statement.

"I hope that the relics will be delivered smoothly during this trip, and it would be the best to have the opportunity to break through to become a god during this trip." Gu Shen thought secretly.

After half an hour.

The seventh basket of cakes was finally steamed. Zheng Lin shook her numb hands and put the cakes one by one into the small and exquisite box.

"Junior Brother, put it away." Zheng Lin looked at Gu Shen and said.

Gu Shen obediently put these pastries into his storage bag, he knew that if he didn't put them away, he would really hurt his senior sister's heart.

After finishing their work, the two walked out of the kitchen.

The bright moonlight sprinkled down like water, illuminating the entire courtyard.

"Senior Sister." Gu Shen called out.

Zheng Lin turned her head suspiciously and looked at Gu Shen.

Gu Shen stretched out his hand, gently grasped Zheng Lin's wrist, pulled her to the underside of the plane tree, and said, "Sit on it."

Zheng Lin looked at the swing in front of her, then raised her head to look at the man she loved in front of her, she looked a little ashamed, but she just hesitated, and then sat on it. It will be a long time before we see each other again.

Gu Shen walked behind Zheng Lin, raised his hands, hesitated for a while, retracted his left hand, propped it on the plane tree next to him, and gently pushed Zheng Lin with his right hand.

The sky was full of stars, the bright moon hung high, and the silvery moonlight shone down, covering the two of them like a layer of tulle.

The next day.

When it was slightly bright, Gu Shen stopped meditating and practicing, took a few changes of clothes, walked out of the room, stood in the main room for a while, and looked at the master bedroom in front, where the two people he cared about the most were sleeping.

"call!"

Gu Shen let out a long breath, stepped forward, and walked out of the door. The next moment, it turned into a golden glow, flew into the sky, and disappeared into the sky in the blink of an eye.

He didn't say goodbye, which would only add to the sadness.

Just as Gu Shen left, the door of the master bedroom was opened, and Zheng Lin came out wearing a white undershirt and a plain robe.

Some people stayed up all night, and now they are leaning against the door frame and looking into the distance.

"Junior brother, come back early."
