When the weather was dark, the rice was still hot.

Gu Liang came to the kitchen and found that there was no rice in the rice jar.

Ah, this! No wonder Taoist Lingxu wanted to fast, it turned out that there was no rice to eat, so he had to fast!

Fortunately, there was rice in Gu Liang's space, otherwise he would really be hungry. Filling his stomach was important at the moment, so he didn't care about so much. Gu Liang took out a bag of rice from the space, about 30 kilograms. It was too much for him to take out. He could say that the two of them carried this 30 kilograms to the mountain.

In order to take care of his uncle, Gu Liang specially took out refined rice. This refined rice is several times more expensive than brown rice. After all, refined rice is not just a simple grinding of brown rice. There were no machines for milling rice in ancient times, and it all depended on manual labor. But the more rice is pounded, the easier it is to be crushed, so the yield of refined rice is very small, and the price is naturally much more expensive. Even Gu Liang was reluctant to buy more, there was only so much white rice in the space.

Well, there is also a pheasant in the space, which was caught by Da Xiong last time, and Gu Liang put it in the space before he had time to eat it. This time, it happened to be taken out and cooked together to nourish the body of the third uncle.

In order to take care of the third uncle Gu Boxi, Gu Liang planned to cook rice into porridge so that the third uncle could eat it, after all, the third uncle was still in a coma. Gu Liang found a pottery pot, put some rice and water, and simmered it directly with charcoal fire. The porridge simmered in this way has rice oil and is very sweet.

As for the pheasant, Gu Liang directly removed the hair and skin for convenience, and threw it into the porridge in pieces. He emptied the salt pot in the kitchen and added it for seasoning. He found a piece of ginger, cut it into foam and threw it in to remove the fishy smell, which is also good for Gu Boxi's body.

Gu Liang simmered it for an hour, until the rice porridge became a pot of chicken soup, and a layer of chicken fat floated on the soup. Just looking at the color, the taste must be good.

The chicken is fresh and fragrant, and the refined rice is sweet. The two flavors are mixed in the charcoal pottery pot and the fragrance spreads throughout the Lingbao Temple.

At this time, Taoist Lingxu, who was meditating in the hall, also smelled the fragrance.

Taoist Lingxu shouted————"Who is the evil spirit who dares to destroy my Taoism!"

In the end, Taoist Lingxu and Gu Liang shared the pot of chicken soup.

And left some soup to feed Gu Boxi who was lying down. Gu Boxi seemed to be out of danger. He could swallow the soup fed to him, which meant it was a good thing.

Finally, Gu Boxi opened his eyes the next day.

It must be said that Taoist Lingxu's medical skills are really good. Under his treatment, Gu Boxi's injuries have visibly improved.

At this time, because Gu Boxi and Gu Liang had not returned for many days, the Gu family was in a mess.

The Gu family was originally busy with the autumn harvest and had not realized that Gu Boxi and Gu Liang had not returned home for three or four days. It was a matchmaker who came to the door to talk about marriage and wanted to meet Gu Boxi. The Gu family realized that they had been in Dahei Mountain for four days.

Originally, Gu Boxi and Gu Liang stayed in the mountains for a maximum of three nights. Now that four nights have passed, no one has been seen. The Gu family has some premonitions and realized that something is wrong.

So they asked around in the village if they had seen Gu Liang and the others. At the same time, they searched several times at the foot of Dahei Mountain, but no one responded when they shouted all over the mountain.

Originally, they were still lucky, thinking that Gu Boxi and Gu Liang just stayed in the mountains for a few more days because they were looking for more medicinal materials.

Until the news came from the neighboring Tiefusi Town that a family living alone at the foot of the mountain was attacked by a tiger two days ago. The family of four and the baby who had just turned one month old were all eaten by the tiger. It was not until a few days later that they were discovered by people who went up the mountain to chop wood. When they found it, there was a room full of blood, and only some stumps were left. The bones and flesh were smelly and crawling with flies.

When the news reached the ears of Old Lady Gu, Old Lady Gu suddenly lost her mind, thinking that Gu Boxi and Gu Liang had also met with an accident. You know, once this tiger has the intention to kill, it will bite anyone it sees.

The news that Gu Boxi and Gu Liang had not returned for a few days was immediately known to everyone in Lanxi Village. As a result, everyone in the village was saying that Old Lady Gu’s youngest son and eldest grandson went into the mountains and were eaten by the big insects on the mountain.

The news spread so widely that even Old Lady Gu’s only married daughter knew about it, and she went back to her parents’ home to persuade Old Lady Gu to think more positively.

Gu Boxi's marriage was thus cancelled. When the other party heard that Gu Boxi had gone into the mountains and had not returned, they hurriedly cancelled the engagement. Regardless of whether the news was true or not, the other party was afraid that if they refused too late, their daughter would be labeled as a "husband-killer".

At this time,

The two people involved were still "comfortable" staying in Lingbao Temple to eat and drink!

After two days of getting along with Lingxu Taoist, Gu Liang has figured out Lingxu Taoist's temper. His temper is a bit like the combination of Huang Yaoshi and Old Naughty Boy in The Legend of the Condor Heroes. He doesn't like worldly rules, but he is a bit hypocritical.

He clearly said that he wanted to practice fasting and asked Gu Liang not to disturb him. But every time Gu Liang made something delicious, he stopped fasting and ate more happily than anyone else.

In particular, Gu Liang once made ice jelly with brown sugar water, and Lingxu Taoist ate five bowls by himself. Gu Liang didn't know where he got such a big appetite, so he asked him if he often fasted, shouldn't his appetite be small?

Later, Gu Liang learned that Lingxu Taoist had been living alone in the temple, relying on a small village at the foot of the mountain to send him food. And he usually treats people in the village at the foot of the mountain for free, so as to get people to send food.

Sometimes when the food was gone and there was no food in the temple, Taoist Lingxu would rely on fasting to survive, or look for some wild vegetables and fruits to fill his stomach. He also grew vegetables, but there were many birds and beasts in the mountains, and every time they grew, they were eaten up by these small animals.

The reason why he had a big appetite was because Taoist Qingxu had no talent for cooking at all, and the food he made was as hard to swallow as the medicine pills he refined.

Gu Liang's mediocre cooking skills alone could make Taoist Lingxu eat so happily, so you can imagine how good the Taoist was at cooking. However, Gu Liang also got along very well with Taoist Lingxu because of cooking for the past two days.

In these two days, Gu Boxi could already sit up, but the wound on his leg had not healed yet, so he couldn't get out of bed.

And in these two days, Gu Liang also saw the first figure other than them.

In the small village at the foot of the mountain, a middle-aged man carried a bag of food, a bag of salt and some other food into the temple. He also apologized to Taoist Lingxu, saying that he should have come a few days ago, but the family had to collect the grain, so he was a few days late. This time he went up the mountain and carried more as an apology.

Taoist Lingxu was not angry, and asked him how his mother was doing. After hearing that the man's mother could get out of bed, Taoist Lingxu was very happy and gave him some herbs to restore his body.

The middle-aged man was also very surprised to see Gu Liang, because he had been to Lingbao Temple so many times, and this was the first time he found someone outside their village.

Gu Liang explained that they encountered a bear in the mountains and were rescued by Taoist Lingxu after escaping.

The middle-aged man was also very moved after hearing this, because they also knew that there were many wild animals in this big black mountain. Their village once specially persuaded Taoist Lingxu to live at the foot of their mountain. Although their village was very small, with only a dozen households, it would be no problem to support Taoist Lingxu one more person. Moreover, Taoist Lingxu often treated the people in their village, and no one would reject his request. However, Taoist Lingxu refused and insisted on staying in the temple. They had no choice but to deliver food to him door to door regularly.
