There is an inn in the sky

Chapter 73 The Taoist Priest Under the Sunset
heaven.

A strange pine tree stands proudly in the sea of ​​clouds in front of the Changsheng Inn, as if welcoming guests.

Yan Qingkong stood on the steps and looked at it curiously. He somehow understood its identity, and said with some hesitation: "Isn't the old pine welcoming guests on the road of longevity?"

Greeting guests is not old-fashioned, and it is not ordinary guests.

Rather, those who are about to embark on the road of longevity, or those who are predestined to embark on the road of longevity...

"Hey, it is now rooted in the sea of ​​clouds, but what about landing on the ground?" Yan Qingkong thought of a question and suddenly became curious.

He immediately passed the longevity order, and the longevity inn landed on the ground.

When he walked down the steps and stepped on the ground, he found that the welcoming pine tree was rooted in the white jade of the steps, and it was only more than one meter high.

The welcoming pine is not old, green and full of vitality, as if it has a soul.

At this time, instead of going up the steps, he was at the bottom of the steps, looking at it curiously, then he became a little surprised, and said: "Hey, this pine needle looks like emerald jade, quite extraordinary."

When he wanted to pick a pine needle, he found that his hand couldn't reach it.

It was clearly a distance of tens of centimeters, but he felt that there was a distance of more than ten meters, which made him slightly startled.

He gave up after a few tries.

When he went back up the steps, the Longevity Inn automatically floated into the sea of ​​clouds, and this everlasting pine tree was rooted in the sea of ​​clouds in front of him.

"It's kind of miraculous."

Yan Qingkong stared at the old pine, but in a vague way, he felt that the emerald jade-like pine needles were even more extraordinary.

"I wonder if this little banyan tree will do it?"

At this time, he looked at the pot of miniature bonsai still on the steps, and suddenly looked forward to it.Then, put it to the right end of the steps.

But there was no miraculous change.

After a while, he tried the living room, the second floor and other places one by one, but there was still no change.

"It seems that only this welcoming pine has a hidden meaning."

He put the pot of miniature bonsai on the table in the outer room on the second floor, and stood in front of the window looking at the welcoming pine tree.

At this time, it was already past twelve o'clock.

After hesitating for a moment, he prepared to make himself a dish of "angry", after all, he had to eat late or early.

Then, buy the "browed" and "furious" stuff for tonight.

When he was marinating the foie gras, he sat on the steps and watched the welcoming pine.

"Every grain is painstaking, every grain is painstaking..."

He couldn't help thinking about it, and always felt that this was only its superficial effect, and there should be a deeper layer of effect hidden.

However, apart from this, he didn't find that it had any effect.

"Am I thinking too much?"

He frowned and speculated: "It's the first staple food in the Longevity Inn, so it shouldn't be so superficial..."

"It seems that it is not superficial to persuade people to cherish food..."

He shook his head, but felt that he was superficial, and continued: "Taste it again."

He went back to the kitchen to wash and soak the rice.

After about an hour or so, he came out with a medium grade "Furious" and a medium grade "Every grain is hard work".

Angry table in the living room.

Yan Qingkong resisted the temptation to taste the foie gras first, but savored the "every grain is hard work".

He closed his eyes and tasted grain by grain, eating very slowly.

In a trance, he actually tasted a very faint bitterness and saltiness, as if there was bitterness and bitterness in the rice, which was melted by the sweat dripping from the farmer...

He couldn't help laughing.

However, with tears on his face, he seemed to really understand.

As a result, the frightening magic sound disappeared from now on, and will never appear again...

And this "every grain is hard work", Fanghua's real delicacies, let people eat the delicacies that are still moved to tears.

"Only by knowing it can you taste its delicacy..."

Yan Qingkong opened his eyes, although there were tears on his face, he was very happy.

At this moment, he saw countless star spots that were so faint that they were almost invisible in the dark belly, and they slowly gathered together and turned into a brighter spot of light.

It is only three-tenths the size of a grain of rice.

Yan Qingkong was slightly surprised when he saw it, and said, "Is this the result of 'every grain is hard work'?"

He felt it carefully and found that it could provide energy for three days, that is, without eating or drinking for three days and three nights, he still didn't feel the slightest sense of hunger.

Moreover, the energy it provides is not ordinary energy.

Therefore, during these three days and three nights, you will be more energetic than usual, and your whole person will be in good spirits.

"However, it doesn't seem to have much effect. Now is not the age of famine."

Yan Qingkong frowned, still feeling a little weak, and said: "Besides, I don't need bigu."

"The one I ate is the middle grade, which can provide energy for three days, so the first grade is only one day, and the top grade should be nine days." Yan Qingkong thought about it, and then said with some clarity: "However, under special circumstances , it could save a life.”

It was already past three o'clock in the afternoon when he finished eating the "angry".

At four o'clock, he first soaked a portion of rice and marinated a portion of foie gras. If there was no one like these, he could eat them by himself.

And with his heart lit, he can afford two or three entrees.

Moreover, under the constant nourishment of longevity, his physique has become stronger, which is not comparable to before.

Otherwise, last night, he would not have exploded with such a powerful force.

After a while, the sun went down and it was sunset time.

He stood on the steps and watched the sunset, and the welcoming pine tree became a little golden, making it look even more extraordinary...

Soon after, the Longevity Inn began to land.

"Landed in the forest again?"

Yan Qingkong stood on the steps, and there was a stretch of mountains below, and said: "However, the mountains and rivers are pretty good, somewhat like the Danxia landform."

"what?"

Looking at the mountains below, Yan Qingkong was slightly surprised, and said: "Walk tens of miles to the west, turn to the south, and divide into two branches, sitting in a circle like a dragon and a tiger..."

At this time, he basically knew that the Longevity Inn had landed there.

In the setting sun when the sunset covers most of the sky and half of the river, the Danxia landform looks extremely beautiful, like a fairyland on earth.

"Clear water and red clouds dominate tigers and dragons, and the cave is a blessed place hidden in the fairy garden. Even if the Taoist mausoleum travels far away, it still makes the demons fearful." When the Longevity Inn landed on a peak shaped like a tortoise, Yan Qingkong couldn't help but think of something. poem.

Not far away, on a boulder on the edge of the cliff, there was a group of people sitting cross-legged.

He was wearing a blue Taoist robe, facing the sunset and breathing, unaware that a magical inn had landed not far behind him.

"Taoist priest?"

Yan Qingkong stared at the Taoist who was meditating, he looked like a young man, and said, "Who is destined tonight?"

He stood on the steps and watched, waiting for the Taoist to wake up from meditation.
