The young man chewed his rice mechanically like a wooden puppet. He had long since lost interest in finding out more about the shop owner. He just wanted to finish his meal quickly and leave this place as soon as possible.
After swallowing the first mouthful of rice, the young man could not help but frown.
After swallowing the second mouthful of rice, his eyes gradually lit up, as if he had discovered something extraordinary.
After swallowing the third mouthful of rice, his face was glowing red and his body was emitting heat. There seemed to be a wave of energy brewing in his body.
"That … Miss Wan 'er, what kind of rice is this? Why do I feel hot all over after eating only three mouthfuls? Every cell in my body seems to be constantly emitting heat, as if I'm about to explode?" The young man did not dare to continue eating. He was afraid that if he continued eating, his entire body would directly explode.
"Oh? You feel hot? " The girl named Wan 'er suddenly became interested. She circled the young man in front of her and sized him up. She even let out a sound of praise. "How rare. Among so many customers, you're the first one who can trigger the energy in the rice after eating it."
As she spoke, the girl excitedly pinched the young man's shoulder and revealed a look of surprise. "Ah, such a strong body. No wonder the rice has such a special effect on you. It seems that you don't have a mortal body, do you?"
"If you feel hot, then drink some soup. The heat clears the lungs and unclogs the meridians. It may have a miraculous effect on you!"
The young man pondered for a moment, but still followed the girl's guidance. He picked up the big bowl on the table and carefully took a sip of the soup.
Hiss!
A chill that made his teeth numb hit him. It then flowed down his throat and into his lungs. It then merged into his blood and spread to every part of his body. It collided with the fiery energy in his body and devoured each other. For a moment, his entire body was in a state where water and fire blended together. It was cold and hot at the same time. It was very strange.
"Miss Wan 'er, what exactly did you give me to eat and drink? Why did my body become like this? "
The young man sat cross-legged on the ground and constantly operated his Mysterious Art. He wanted to expel the two types of energy from his body, but the effect was minimal. He could not force out even a trace of energy.
"You're naturally eating immortal delicacies and drinking fine wine. Don't worry, you won't die!"
Wan'er didn't care about the changes in the young man's body. She casually lifted him up and sat him down on a stool. Then she sat beside the table and looked at him with a smile.
"Little brother, what's your name?"
"My name is Ye … Fan. Miss Wan 'er, you can just call me Ye Fan. Don't call me little brother." The young man named Ye Fan seemed to be in great pain at this moment. His lips trembled as he spoke. After pondering for a moment, he said his name.
"Wan 'er … Miss, are you feeding the other guests the same thing? Do they … have the same reaction? "
"Of course, the food is the same. But the other customers don't have the same reaction as you!" Wan 'er looked at him with a smile. "You are the first lucky person."
"Why are they not reacting?"
"That's because they only have a mortal body. Only people with special body constitutions can trigger the energy within and merge it with the power of water and fire to refine their bodies. Little brother Ye Fan, you're really lucky. You'll be able to improve your physical strength in the future!"
"Special body constitutions?"
"That's right. Like the Sacred Body, Divine Body, Born Taoism Body … all of them can trigger the energy within to refine their bodies. The rice and soup are treasures that only Immortals can enjoy. Ordinary people can't trigger the energy within at all. But even so, eating it can prolong one's life and benefit a lot."
At this point, Wan 'er seemed to be angry. "Hmph, those mortals have a mortal body. They don't know how much advantage they have. In the end, they went out and spread rumors. If Young Master didn't care about them, Wan' er would have gone out and strangled them to death!"
Ye Fan nodded his head stiffly. He didn't doubt the young lady's ability. Even the skinny horse in the courtyard had the strength of the Immortal Level Three Dao Severing King. This female ghost dressed as a maid might be even stronger than the lazy horse.
The power of ice and fire in his body disappeared as quickly as it came. Just as the two of them were chatting, Ye Fan felt his body gradually returning to normal. The only difference was that his physical strength seemed to be stronger than before.
"That … That rice and soup, can I take it away?" Ye Fan looked at the rice and soup on the table embarrassedly and asked carefully.
"Since you have already spent your origin, you can naturally do whatever you want with these things." Wan 'er waved her hand and looked rather forthright.
At this moment, the inn owner who had been lying lazily on the table walked in front of Ye Fan and patted him on the shoulder as if they were familiar with each other.
"Brother Fan, when did you reincarnate?"
What?
Ye Fan was instantly confused. He carefully looked at the black-robed man in front of him again. After confirming that he didn't know him in the past, he asked carefully, "Big Brother, did we know each other before?"
"It seems like you didn't find the memories of your past life!" The black-robed man shook his head regretfully as if it was a pity.
"Past life? Big Brother, you know my past life? " Ye Fan was a little shocked. Past and present life, this kind of matter that involved reincarnation sounded too grand. He felt that his mind couldn't keep up.
"You can say that." The black-robed man nodded. Then, his interest waned. "Forget it. Since you don't have the memories of your past life, there's nothing much to talk about. It's getting late. If you don't want to stay in the inn, we'll close for the night!"
"Wan 'er, close the door and send the guest out. Accompany me for a walk!"
"Aye, alright!"
Wan 'er's eyes lit up when she heard that they were going out for a walk. She waved her hand and kept the rice and soup on the table into a storage ring. Then, she threw it to Ye Fan.
"Brother Ye Fan, as you can see, I'm very busy. I have to accompany my master for a walk. I've been in the Divine City for so long but I haven't gone out with him yet!"
"It's also my first time in the Divine City and I haven't walked around the city in detail. Why don't we go together?" Ye Fan's curiosity was piqued. He wanted to follow her and find out more about his past life.
"Are you sure you want to be a third wheel?" Hearing this, Wan 'er's voice was no longer as pleasant as before. Instead, it was filled with an eerie aura. It was as if she was going to turn into an evil spirit that devoured everything in the next moment.
Feeling that the surrounding air had turned cold, Ye Fan instinctively took a step back. Then, he came to his senses. A man and a woman were going out for a walk. What would he do if he followed them?
