I Can See Through All Things' Information-Chapter 543 - 350: Supreme Delicacy, Sword Talisman_2
Chapter 543: Chapter 350: Supreme Delicacy, Sword Talisman_2
So this braised pork dish, having tried it a few times before, I felt that this time—the one made by Lu Qing—was even tastier than usual.
As for Old Hu and his daughter Zezhi, there was no need to mention.
It was their first time tasting such a uniquely flavored dish.
"This time, on our trip to Central State, Ah Qing seemed to have collected some particularly special seasonings, probably related to this," the elder doctor explained.
Although they were in a hurry on their way to Central State, Lu Qing still made time to stroll around the places they stayed at, looking for unexpected finds.
As a result, he obtained quite a few special seasonings.
After tasting the braised pork, Wei Shanhai and the others also tried the other dishes on the table, equally exceptional in flavor.
Each dish had its unique taste, worthy of the label of truly refined delicacies.
After trying all the dishes, the group finally turned their attention to the steaming basket of Spiritual Rice.
They knew, while the dishes on the table were delicious, it was this Spiritual Rice that was the real highlight of today’s feast.
"Doctor Chen, is there any particular way to enjoy this Spiritual Rice?" Wei Shanhai asked.
"There shouldn’t be," the elder doctor shook his head. "Ah Qing didn’t specify any special way to eat this Spiritual Rice, it should be eaten just like regular rice." ƒrēewebnoѵёl.cσm
"Grandpa Wei, let me serve the rice for you."
At that moment, Little Yan stepped forward obediently to fill everyone’s bowls.
Soon, bowls of crystal-clear Spiritual Rice were served by Little Yan, placed in front of everyone.
Mist rising ethereally, that faint aroma wafting into everyone’s nostrils was even more tempting than the array of delicious food on the table.
"Doctor Chen, then we won’t stand on ceremony."
Wei Shanhai was the first to pick up his bowl, grabbing a chopstick-full of rice into his mouth.
Seeing this, the others also picked up their bowls to start eating.
With a mouthful of rice, everyone immediately felt the extraordinary nature of this Spiritual Rice.
The rice was soft yet chewy, endlessly sweet and delicious.
With each chew, a natural and pure essence circulated between their lips and teeth.
The taste was so delightful it was an immense pleasure.
As a result, everyone couldn’t stop eating, spoonful after spoonful, until their bowls were empty.
"The flavor of this Spirit Rice is truly indescribable, it’s the best rice I’ve had in my entire life."
After a bowl of Spirit Rice, Wei Shanhai showed an incredulous look in his eyes.
More importantly, he felt that this Spirit Rice contained a very gentle Life Energy, not inferior to those precious medicinal materials.
"And I feel like after eating this Spiritual Rice, my body feels much lighter."
Mrs. Wei was equally astonished.
"Ah Qing did mention that this Spiritual Rice contains spiritual charm and can nourish the body, enhance the internal vitality, it’s indeed a very mild spiritual supplement, madam’s feeling is not an illusion," the elder doctor explained.
"For such a spiritual item, Young Master Lu offering it so generously for hospitality is truly magnanimous."
Old Hu was deeply shocked.
As a Bone Forger Realm Martial Artist, his Qi-Blood Power was not weak.
Yet, just one bowl of this Spiritual Rice made him feel his Qi-Blood Power, which had not progressed for a long time, was noticeably strengthened.
Such wondrous effects from a single bowl of rice—if one could eat this every day, wouldn’t it mean that in no time, he could break his limits, and there was hope for stepping into the Inner Organs Realm?
Suddenly, Old Hu realized just how precious the Spiritual Rice Lu Qing brought out for the guests was.
Even a martial artist of his advanced age, whose cultivation path had plateaued, could strengthen his Qi-Blood Power.
If those young and supremely talented geniuses could receive the assistance of this Spiritual Rice...
With regular consumption, wouldn’t their cultivation skyrocket at a rapid pace?!
"Senior Wei, Family Master Wei, ladies and gentlemen, I apologize for my late arrival," Lu Qing entered the room after having attended to the villagers outside.
"Where are your words, Young Master Lu? Having the fortune to taste such delicious dishes and Spiritual Rice is our blessing," Wei Shanhai smiled and said, "By the way, Young Master Lu, did you harvest a lot of this Spiritual Rice this time?"
Lu Qing was startled, then laughed: "Senior Wei, are you interested? This Spiritual Rice is but a trivial cultivation of mine.
But if Senior Wei wants some, I can spare a few hundred pounds for you."
Thanks to Lu Qing’s meticulous care, this harvest of Spirit Grain had grown extremely well.
The stalks produced, likewise, were exceptionally full.
Therefore, this time his harvest was quite fruitful.
Two mu of spirit field had yielded over three thousand jins of Spirit Grain.
Even after removing the husks, there were still at least two thousand jins of Spirit Rice.
Giving a few hundred jins to Wei Shanhai wouldn’t make a difference.
After all, he, his master, and Little Yan wouldn’t eat that much.
Moreover, in a few months, he would be able to harvest another batch of Spirit Grain.
"However, Senior Wei, while Spirit Rice is good, for Innate Realm Experts it can at most only enhance their Cultivation a bit.
To break through to a higher realm, one still needs to rely on diligent self-cultivation and refinement," Lu Qing persuaded.
"Do you think I am seeking the Spirit Rice for myself, Young Master Lu? Not at all," Wei Shanhai said with a smile. "I’m asking for it on behalf of Zi’an and Zihao.
Especially Zihao, he doesn’t have the same opportunities as Zi’an, and I’m afraid his Cultivation has fallen behind quite a lot.
With this Spirit Rice, perhaps he can catch up."
"You’ve found Zihao?" Lu Qing said, surprised.
He had indeed heard about the tragic incident that had occurred over two months ago when the Qingyun Sword Pavilion in Jizhou was annihilated.
He also knew that Wei Zihao, as a disciple of the Qingyun Sword Pavilion, had gone missing during that catastrophe.
In Lu Qing’s opinion, Wei Zihao was probably dead by now.
After all, so many experts from the Qingyun Sword Pavilion had perished unjustly; how could he, a mere Postnatal Realm cultivator, have possibly escaped the disaster?
But now, according to Wei Shanhai, it seemed that Wei Zihao might not be dead?
"Young Master Lu, I was just about to discuss this matter with you," Wei Xinghe intervened.
"Two days ago, our Wei Family spy in the State Mansion reported a sighting of Zihao.
It seems he is hiding out with a few other disciples from the Qingyun Sword Pavilion."
"Zihao is in the State Mansion, then why hasn’t he contacted you? I remember that your Wei Family also has properties there, right?" Lu Qing thought to himself.
"This is also our confusion. Our spy in the mansion reported that when they saw Zihao, he looked very rushed, as if he was avoiding something.
Therefore, I speculate that he has his reasons for deliberately not contacting the family."
"Avoiding something..." Lu Qing pondered for a moment, "Do you mean, Wei Family Master, that Zihao is in danger and deliberately not contacting you to avoid implicating the Wei Family?"
"Based on the information from the spies in the mansion, Ah Hai and I surmise it is very likely the case."
"That Zihao would rather put himself in danger than ask his family for help...
Clearly, in his mind, whoever is bringing him danger must be extremely fearsome, far beyond what your Wei Family can cope with.
Could it be that it is the same mysterious force that eradicated the Qingyun Sword Pavilion?"
Lu Qing analyzed.
Wei Shanhai sighed, "That’s what we think as well, but just the thought of Zihao being in danger makes Mrs. Wei and me extremely anxious and restless."
Mrs. Wei couldn’t help but show a look of deep sorrow.
"So you are thinking..."
Lu Qing could understand. As parents, how could they just sit back and watch their son be in danger?
"I’m thinking of making a trip to the State Mansion to see if I can bring Zihao back," Wei Xinghe revealed his thoughts.
"That might not be wise. If Zihao has not contacted you, there must be his reasons for it. Family Master Wei, if you suddenly go to meet him, it might catch him off guard and disrupt his plans."
"Of course, I am aware of this, but if I do not go to the State Mansion and something happens to Zihao, I fear I will never be at peace for the rest of my life.
Of course, I am also aware of the numerous dangers on such a journey. Knowing that you, Young Master Lu, are skilled in the art of divination,
I was hoping to consult you and see if there is any chance of survival for me on this trip."
Lu Qing: "..."
He didn’t know any art of divination; that was just an excuse for his Superpower.
Still, seeing Wei Xinghe’s resolute expression, he also knew that it would be impossible to dissuade him.
Any competent father couldn’t possibly stand by and do nothing while their child was in danger.
So, after thinking for a moment, he reached into his chest and pulled out a sword-shaped Jade Talisman.
