Start building the foundation: What is the Southern Xinjiang Corpse Puppet?

Chapter 178 I'll Treat You to Specialties

"I want to ask you something." Luo San looked at the waiter and said lightly.

"You say." The waiter rubbed his hands, but his eyes were fixed on the silver ingot.

"Where do you buy the meat for your restaurant?" When the waiter was asked this question, he was stunned.

"Sir, are you not from our Chu country?" The waiter looked at everyone suspiciously, frowning.

These two women were outstanding in appearance. To be honest, this was the first time he had met such beautiful women in his more than thirty years of life.

Luo Shan and Ling Wanran looked at each other and their hearts skipped a beat.

Ling Wanran coughed lightly:

"We are of course Chu people, but we have lived in the family since we were young. This is our first time traveling far away. I saw that the meat dishes made in your inn are quite exquisite, so I asked casually."

Ling Wanran said this with an embarrassed smile on her face.

Her smile stunned the waiter, who nodded blankly and said stumblingly:

“You are all young ladies from big families, so it’s no wonder you don’t know that these meats were purchased by the city governor and the Royal Merchant Fei family.”

"The taste of the livestock we raise ourselves is always a little bit worse. At the beginning, the owner of the wine shop also used livestock raised by ordinary people, but the taste was not liked by people. Later, he directly purchased fresh meat from the Fei family."

The waiter said, pointing to a dish on the table:

"This dragon meat is our restaurant's specialty. I guarantee you'll be addicted once you try it."

Luo Shan and Ling Wanran looked in the direction the waiter pointed.

The plate of meat he was pointing at was beautifully presented and looked very delicate and delicious.

It’s dragon meat again. What does this meat have to do with dragons?

Luo Shan was confused and asked directly:

"I have eaten it at home before, but I was very curious at the time. Why is it called dragon meat? Could it be the meat of a real dragon?"

Real dragon...

The first thing Luo San thought of was the monster with a little dragon blood, and the giant dragon hand bone in the dense forest.

Could it be that this so-called dragon meat is really related to dragons?

Thinking of the situation in the dense forest where she had deliberately searched for the remaining body of the dragon but to no avail, Luo Shan couldn't help but think a little more.

"We don't know about that. We only know that this meat is called dragon meat. We ordinary people will go to the Fei family from time to time to buy some to eat. Eating dragon meat can not only cure diseases, but it is also a great tonic for men." The waiter blushed as he spoke.

"We understand. This silver is a reward for you." Luo Shan pushed the silver over and used his spiritual sense to investigate the situation of the waiter without leaving any trace.

The waiter's blood and energy are more vigorous than those of the people on the street. It seems that he has eaten a lot of meat in this building.

The waiter happily hid the silver in his arms, then retreated respectfully, closing the door behind him.

Luo Shan looked at Ling Wanran and said:

"It seems that if I want to know why their blood and energy are so vigorous, I have to go to Kyoto."

She had a premonition that these mortals might have done something earth-shattering and heart-wrenching.

At the same time, after coming out of the Jedi secret realm, the demon clan was surprised for a moment when they discovered the spiritual energy, but then they found that the spiritual energy was extremely thin.

This is not the saddest thing. The saddest thing is that due to their huge size and thin spiritual energy, they are unable to return to the strength they had in the Four Directions Realm, and thus cannot transform.

After climbing over hundreds of giant peaks and seeing the first human, before they could catch him, they saw that human who had no spiritual power threw something into the sky, and there was only a loud bang.

Thousands of mortals swarmed in, holding strange weapons in their hands, and looked at them as if they were seeing food.

After several rounds of fighting, they suddenly discovered that these mortals had strange weights, their bodies were not as strong as their monsters, and the weapons in their hands were even weirder.

"Go first!" The young master of the demon clan stared at these humans with gloomy eyes.

It actually sensed the aura of Dragon Ancestor from these humans. What on earth did these people do to Dragon Ancestor?

After receiving the order, the demons turned around and fled. Although these humans were strong, they were not as fast as them, so they soon left them behind.

Half a month later, a young man in white clothes lined up at the gate of a city. After sensing the familiar aura from these people, he lowered his head and concealed the fierce light in his eyes.

This young man was none other than the young master of the demon clan who had a slight trace of dragon blood.

Similarly, Gu Qingcheng, Ying Chan, Song Guili, Xiao Rong and others entered the border cities of Chu.

They also discovered something strange about these mortals.

The city that Luo Shan, the corpse-gui monks and others entered was called Tupan. Tupan was a border city of the Chu State close to the Daru herdsmen tribe.

The capital of Chu State was called Longcang, which was tens of thousands of miles away from Tupan City. It would take them several months to reach the capital.

"Let's go. It's a good opportunity to take a look at the situation in the State of Chu along the way." Ling Wanran said lightly.

Several people have stayed in Tupan City for two or three days. They have also investigated the source of the dragon meat and found out some information.

Every half a month, the Fei family would escort a batch of meat to Tupan City.

"We don't know much about the State of Chu. I suggest that we follow the caravan directly into Beijing," Luo San suggested.

"Luo Shan, do you have silver?" The corpse puppet monk asked a question that hit Luo Shan's soul directly.

Although she could open the storage bag now, there were spirit stones in it, but no gold, silver or other valuables.

"I exchanged it for gold and silver." Seeing Luo Shan's expression froze, he blinked twice without saying anything, Ling Wanran spoke up to help.

Luo Shan's expression relaxed, and he said, "Thank you very much, Brother Ling. When we get out of the secret realm, I will treat you to the specialties of the Southern Xinjiang Corpse Puppet."

"Oh, what's the specialty?"

"Zombie meat!"

Luo Shan said with a smile.

Ling Wanran's expression froze. She looked at Luo Shan, glanced at the white jade coffin hanging around his waist, and finally laughed dryly:

"Are you kidding, Brother Luo?"

"How could that be? The monster meat jerky from our Southern Border is spicy and chewy. I guarantee that Fellow Daoist Ling will never forget it after having tasted it once."

"Monster...monster meat jerky?"

Ling Wanran breathed a sigh of relief. It was dried monster meat. Fortunately it was not what she thought.

"Of course it's monster meat jerky, made with a very special spice from our southern Xinjiang. It tastes really good."

Luo Shan nodded, and seeing Ling Wanran looking at her white jade coffin as if she was frightened, she laughed softly.

The two talked about southern Xinjiang cuisine while walking towards the business in the city.

After consulting the head of the trading company, several people decided to follow a caravan of 20 people to the capital.

After paying the money, they returned to the restaurant.

Three days later, the caravan set off, and Luo Shan and others followed leisurely behind the caravan.

After two months of travel, the group arrived at the capital city, Longcang.

Different from the old and desolate Tupan City, Longcang seems much more prosperous.

But Luo Shan didn't expect that as soon as she entered the capital, she would run into a monk from the Yinshan Sect in the restaurant where she stayed.
