I am not a trainer

While the chipmunk has lost weight, his state has also been improved.

In just over a month, the chipmunk's level has broken through from a low totem to a medium totem.

Only Luo He can catch up with this speed of progress.

But then again... Luo He still feels inexplicably sympathetic to the chipmunk.

Chipmunk can have today, and he and Bai Ze are inseparable!

Luo He coughed lightly, and invited the two of them in, and sat down beside a tea table in the courtyard.

At the same time, according to Luo He's instructions, Xuexue brought out a case of refreshments.

The dried fruit is exquisite, the cookies are dripping with honey, and the cakes are studded with icing and chocolate.

Luo He knew that Bai Ze liked to drink more, so he prepared fruit wine brewed in Bai Ze's bottle and put it on the tea table.

It was winter, and the weather was very cold. Senior Bai Ze was still wearing the thin white gown, staring at the tea table with interest.

Although I didn't come to see Luo He for a drink, but there is good wine, so I don't want to drink it for nothing!

The chipmunk jumped from Bai Ze's shoulder to the tea table, picked up the dried fruit with its small paws, and stuffed it into its cheek pouch.

"Squeak~" The chipmunk stuffed several pieces of dried fruit into its mouth in one breath, puffed up its cheeks, and moved its cheeks up and down.

I eat, eat, eat!

Seeing this, Luo He couldn't help feeling a little emotional.

It seems that the chipmunk family is really out of food.

Look at the children, how hungry they are!

"The chipmunk said to come to see you, and I happened to have the same idea, so I went with it." Bai Ze said.

Before, Luo He told the chipmunk that he would let it come to his house for the winter, so he was not surprised by the chipmunk's arrival.

However, senior Bai Ze's sudden visit made Luo He a little curious, so he waited for the next article.

"A few days ago, a little girl came to Kunlun Mountain to look for me with a Bai Ze bottle. She told me that you had strayed into a crack in the spirit world, and your life and death were uncertain. She was so anxious that she was about to cry."

Senior Bai Ze took a sip of his wine and said lightly, "I will count the time and come to see you in person and verify my prediction..."

She raised her pair of deep heterochromatic pupils, ruby ​​and yellow amber pupils, as if they could communicate the worlds of yin and yang.

At this moment, Bai Ze in front of him seemed to be no longer a lazy drunkard, but a wise man who knew everything.

Bai Ze, one of the seven holy beasts, can listen to the pain and heartfelt voice of all things, and can empathize with all things.

Regarding the encounter with the Grim Reaper, Luo He really wanted to confide in Bai Ze.

But Luo He didn't dare to be reckless, after all, the god of death made it clear that there would be no good end for telling his affairs.

Luo He pursed his lips and said, "Verify what prediction?"

Bai Ze's different-colored pupils shimmered, and after a while, the deep light in the depths of his eyes was replaced by a light touch.

"Verify whether you are alive or not." Bai Ze picked up the wine glass and said with a light smile, "Isn't this very good, come on, let's drink together!"

Luo He replaced the wine with tea, touched the wine glass lightly with the white-haired beauty with different eyes, looked at the Holy Spirit Bai Ze who was drinking boldly and paralyzed the senses with fine wine, he hesitated to speak.

"Senior Bai Ze must have noticed something."

Luo He thought: "It's just that she can't say it clearly, and it's not convenient for me to reveal it, so I can only tacitly say it..."

His eyes fell on the chipmunk who was desperately cooking.

Luo He complained: "Senior Bai Ze, are you being too harsh on the chipmunk's food reserves?"

"This is the ceremony of confinement."

Bai Ze showed a serious look, and immediately relaxed after a second, and waved his hand.

"It's just paying the tuition fee." Bai Ze drank alcohol and said with a smile, "I can't just give advice to others."

Luo He thinks it makes sense.

But I still think chipmunk is pretty miserable.

The two are not contrary, he coughed dryly, poked the fluffy chipmunk with his finger, and said:

"Chipmunk, you can stay at my house for the winter, and I will prepare food for you."

Immediately, the chipmunk stopped chewing, and raised its small black eyes, in which tears glistened like small pearls.

"Squeak!" (Thank you, Luo He!)

Luo He looks at the sky.

Back then, it seemed that I was the one who led Bai Ze to the mountain...

You see, it still has to thank us!

Naturally, Bai Ze can also empathize with the chipmunk, and the wool is not for taking advantage of it, but more out of the mentality of having fun.

With a smile on her face, she raised her wine glass and touched the peanut in Chipmunk's hand:

"Come back after all the money is gone... come, I wish you a smooth winter in Luo He's house!"

The chipmunk held up the peanut in his hand:

"squeak!"

Luo He also raised the teacup in his hand, smiling.

Suddenly, the screen of his mobile phone on the tea table lit up.

The front camera projects blue light, intertwined into the image of a white-haired girl.

"Please allow me to remind you that it is a very huge project to provide totem-level creatures with the food they need to survive the winter, and the family expenses will increase exponentially."

Zero is like a diligent and thrifty little secretary who manages the house, meticulously giving reminders.

But Ling had just joined the team, so he didn't know that he had the blessing of legendary kitchen utensils.

In fact, with four pieces of legendary kitchen utensils, even if it is to provide energy for a totem-level chipmunk, there is not much pressure.

"Don't worry, I know very well." Luo He smiled and said, "Thank you for your reminder, Zero."

"This is..." Bai Ze looked at Zero.

Just as Luo He was about to speak, he was suddenly surprised.

Could it be that Senior Bai Ze couldn't see through Zero's origin?

"I really can't see through it." Bai Ze raised his forehead, as if he heard Luo He's inner voice: "To tell you the truth, I don't have a deep enough understanding of the machines invented by modern humans."

The ghosts and ghosts in the world are recorded in Bai Ze's picture, but there is very little information about a newly invented mechanical life form like Zero.

Luo He suddenly felt that this was reasonable.

Times have changed, even [Bai Ze Tu] needs to keep pace with the times!

"Hmph, give me a few more months, and I'll figure it all out." The white-haired beauty with different pupils said lazily, "Now... let's drink some good wine!"

Ton ton~

She put down her wine glass boldly, looked at number zero, and said with great interest, "Can you drink?"

Luo He: "She is not yet full moon..."

Zero said seriously: "I can convert alcohol into electricity. From a certain point of view, I can drink alcohol."

Bai Ze: "How about alcohol?"

Zero: "The upper limit of drinking depends on the upper limit of my energy storage."

Bai Ze looked at Luo He, Luo He saw a trace of confusion in her eyes for the first time.

Bai Ze, who knows everything, is also a little confused when faced with the newly invented number zero.

Luo He was afraid that Zero's hobbies would go astray with Senior Bai Ze, so he tapped the phone screen to put Zero away, and immediately cleared his throat and said:

"Actually, I have something very important about the spirit world, and I want to ask you for advice."

Bai Ze didn't delve into the matter of Zero, looked at Luo He's expression, and nodded slightly:

"I am very satisfied with today's drink...I will try my best to help you answer."

White light flashed across the tea table.

Bitter cold air permeated the silver table knife that Luo He took out.

This table knife is extremely beautiful, with a snow-white blade and gorgeous carvings.

It was what Luo He obtained from the spirit world, the 【Death God's Knife】.

Looking at the table knife, Bai Ze's slack expression restrained, and the eyes in the golden red pupils were extremely serious.

"This table knife was obtained by accident in the spirit world."

Luo He paused and said, "Can you tell me its real name, or its specific purpose?"

Bai Ze fell silent.

She raised her eyes, fixed on Luo He's face, and said:

"You should know that in western cutlery, there is always a knife in one hand and a fork in the other."

Luo He was startled suddenly, and said:

"You mean, there should be another 'fork' that goes with this knife?"

The white-haired beauty lightly shrugged her shoulders, saying that she never said that.

"Try to hold this table knife." Bai Ze raised his chin and gestured to Luo He.

Luo He did as he did, holding the handle of the knife, a strange feeling came from the knife, as if his stomach suddenly became empty.

Even the refreshments on the tea table in front of him became extremely delicious and attractive.

"How does it feel?"

"I feel... my appetite has greatly increased." Luo He said truthfully.

"Excuse me!"

This time it was Bai Ze's turn to be surprised, and sighed:

"It seems that what you got is the real thing!"

Luo He was puzzled and said, "What real guy?"

"Put the knife away."

Bai Ze squeezed a peanut and said calmly:

"With your current power of space, it's not time to tell you its origin."

Luo He: "..."

I understand, this is not enough level, and I can't unlock new mechanisms!

Although there is suspicion of "Riddler", Senior Bai Ze must have his own rules of conduct.

Luo He didn't delve into it, obediently put away the God of Death's knife, and asked more:

"This table knife shouldn't have any negative effects on me, right?"

"No."

Bai Ze said clearly: "Just don't really use it for dinner."

At most, Luo He regarded it as a keepsake, and did not dare to eat with the God of Death's knife.

The confusion in his heart was solved, and Luo He still had one question, which was the ancient Qingqiu country mentioned by Xia Miao.

After Bai Ze heard the name of [The Kingdom of Qingqiu] from Luo He, he retrieved his memory and said:

"This name sounds familiar... Is there any other information?"

"It is said that there is a nine-tailed fox in the country of Qingqiu. Then, I suspect that the nine-tailed fox is actually a nine-section wolf, and it may have something to do with Zao Jun." Luo He truthfully said.

Bai Ze patted his palm lightly, and said, "I have a solution—you can ask Xuan Gui!"

Luo He: "Huh?"

Bai Ze smiled and said, "Xuan Gui is Zao Jun's number one fan, but he probably knows more about Zao Jun than I do."

This is true, Senior Turtle is simply Zao Jun's little fan.

Luo He originally planned to invite Boss Xiong, Bai Ze, Xuan Shuigui, Senior Qing and other relatives and friends to come to his house during the winter solstice.

When I went to invite Senior Turtle, I happened to be able to inquire about [Qingqiu Ancient Country].

"Senior Bai Ze, come to my house for dinner on the day of the winter solstice." Luo He took advantage of the opportunity to invite.

"Congratulations on your survival?" Bai Ze teased.

"Wish me good luck in the future." Luo He said with a smile.

"Okay." Bai Ze said with a chuckle, "I will definitely visit that day."

The chipmunk cast a hopeful look:

"Squeak?" (Do I have a share?)

"Of course, you've been staying at my house, and you're indispensable every day!" Luo He said with arrogance.

Chipmunk: "Squeak! (ω)"

This winter is saved!

Xuanwu Mountain.

bottom.

The giant lava tortoise carried the volcano on its back, and two streams of thick smoke spewed out from its nostrils. The urn said:

"Dinner?"

"Yes."

Luo He said: "Other patron saints will also visit, and I will cook a big meal for everyone!"

Hearing the word 'big meal', Senior Turtle was obviously moved, and said in a deep voice:

"Is there... is there hot water that day?"

"Hot, hot water, this, you may need to bring your own." Luo He hesitated.

"I will come that day." Xuan Shuigui smiled, "Remember to put less chili, I don't like spicy food."

Luo He smiled: "Don't worry, I remember your taste!"

Spicy, spicy to death!

Xuanshuigui nodded in relief, and asked Luo He to call out Xiao Jiu, and then gave him a few tricks from the sidelines.

After a week of on-hook experience in the "Travel Diary", Xiao Jiu's growth level has reached the high king.

But between the king class and the overlord class, there is a huge step.

Like Yuyu, who has collected all four tokens and completed the transformation of the source of life, it can only touch the threshold of the overlord level.

In order for Xiao Jiu to break through the bottleneck, there is still a lack of a major opportunity.

Luo He's heart skipped a beat, and he asked Xuanshuigui about the news of [Qingqiu Ancient Country].

"【Ancient Qingqiu Country】?"

There was a hint of surprise in Senior Turtle's dull voice:

"Where did you know the place name?"

"I inquired about it by accident." Luo He asked curiously, "Do you know this place?"

"That's natural. After all, I grew up listening to stories about Mr. Stove."

Senior Turtle said in a deep voice, "It used to be the place where Zao Jun helped the victims!"

Luo He asked in surprise, "Relieve the victims?"

"The famine that year was particularly severe in Qingqiu Ancient Country. Starvation was everywhere, and the victims ate each other."

Senior Turtle said slowly: "The Nong Emperor was looking for the holy beast, and when he passed through Qingqiu, he split into two groups. The Zao Lord stayed in Qingqiu to rescue the disaster, and the Nong Emperor went south to search for the holy beast..."

"Legends say that Zao Jun set up a big pot to cleanse the local miasma and rescue the local disaster victims. Later, the local people called it [God of Qingqiu] in memory of Zao Jun."

Senior Gui's past with Mr. Zao is very precious, and he is a veritable fan leader.

Luo He didn't expect that his original speculation turned out to be wrong, and the God of Qingqiu was really Zao Jun's vest.

And from this story, Luo He keenly captured a piece of information, saying:

"Could this cauldron set up by Mr. Zao be the one used by Emperor Nong to cook colorful soup in the future?"

"This, there is no record in the history books, and I can't be sure." Senior Turtle said.

Luo He nodded slowly, thoughtfully.

In the legend of Emperor Nong, the appearance rate of "pot" is quite high.

It is almost certain that this pot must also be one of the legendary kitchen utensils.

And in the Qingqiu ancient country, there are also legends related to this pot.

If you are lucky, you may be able to find the whereabouts of the next legendary kitchen utensil during this trip to Qingqiu...

"Senior Turtle, to tell you the truth, I plan to investigate the ruins of the ancient Qingqiu country in the near future." Luo He said.

"The thousand-year-old historic site has long been reduced to ruins. Where do you find it?" Senior Turtle asked curiously.

Luo He smiled slightly: "The mountain man has his own tricks."

Zero's satellite navigation, plus Qinglong Sinan's metaphysical navigation.

You can always find the right direction!
