Auntie Li agreed immediately. "I'll take you there after dinner!"
Auntie Li led Mo Guyun into the manor. The manor was not big and had two floors. The second floor seemed to be a place to stay, and the first floor was a place to make and sell flower pancakes. Part of the manor had collapsed. Perhaps there was no one inside during the time halt. Fortunately, there had been people working in the warehouse and the pastry room, so the two places and everything inside had been preserved.
Other than that, there were no traces of human buildings. The buildings were surrounded by mud, and a path had been stepped on at the entrance. There were also some scattered weeds. It seemed like they had cleared the weeds nearby.
Not far away, there was a small piece of land that had just been cultivated. Two rural women were working there.
There were also two young pastry chefs in the courtyard. They took out the remaining noodles and made flower pancakes. They then baked them in a huge pot. Under the pot was a fire made of stones. Soon, smoke curled up and connected with the clouds halfway up the mountain.
There was a stream on one side of the manor. The teacher brought the children to the stream. "Children, let's wash our hands and prepare to eat. We have to wash our hands clean. Otherwise, we'll get sick!"
After washing their hands, the teacher brought the children to the yard and sat down. She then said, "We're going to eat pomegranates. One for each person. Don't be picky!"
Wei Huo and the others were confused. Was one pomegranate enough for each person?
In the end, they saw the so-called pomegranate. It was as big as an apple!
It was a pomegranate fruit that was about the height of a human. Its skin had been peeled off, revealing plump pomegranates. Each fruit was as big as an apple.
The children's expressions changed when they saw the pomegranates. A fat boy in black clothes stood up. "I don't want to eat pomegranates. I want to eat meat!"
The teacher quickly comforted him. "Children, don't be picky. Otherwise, you'll suffer from malnutrition!"
A little loli walked up to Lu Ren with a pomegranate in her hands. "Brother, eat pomegranates."
Lu Ren was pleasantly surprised. "Thank you, little sister."
He took the fruit and took a bite happily …
"Hiss …"
Lu Ren shuddered. His body trembled and his nose wrinkled. "It's too f * cking sour!"
"Hahahaha!" The children all laughed, and the little Lolita even snickered.
Wei Huo was a little surprised. He plucked a fruit and ate it. The fruit was indeed sour, but it contained a special energy. The energy flowed through his body, and all his cells became active.
"Not bad, it's good stuff. Do you have any pomegranate seedlings? I'll exchange it with something of equal value, "Wei Huo said.
Lu Ren's mouth was filled with sourness. There was no sweetness at all. He wrinkled his nose and said, "Brother Wei, such a sour thing …"
Before he could finish his words, a little girl from the pastry shop put on a smile and said, "Little handsome, you don't know the effects of this fruit. If you eat one during the day, you won't feel tired for the whole day. If you eat one at night, you'll recover after sleeping for five to six hours!"
Lu Ren was a little confused. "The night is so long. Why don't you sleep?"
The two cooked wheaten food disciples and the teacher blushed. "What else can we do other than sleep?"
Lu Ren and Long Tao's faces immediately turned red. The two pure virgins immediately thought of many indescribable things. Moreover, they realized that there seemed to be no adult men in the Rose Manor!
Wei Huo smiled. Young people were naive.
"Come, come, come. It's time to eat the flower pancakes!" The two cooked wheaten food disciples placed the flower pancakes on the table. The children could not wait any longer. The teacher immediately shouted, "Children, don't mess around. Eat properly."
"I want to eat meat!" The little fatty in black was dissatisfied again.
As soon as Lu Ren and Long Tao sat down, the two cooked wheaten food disciples sat on either side of them. Their faces were red, and they looked very enthusiastic.
At that moment, Xiao Bin and two aunties came out with a huge pot. "The meat is here. We can eat it in another five to six hours!"
Wei Huo glanced at Xiao Bin, who shook his head slightly, indicating that there was no problem.
Auntie Li walked out with Mo Guyun. Mo Guyun had changed her clothes and changed out of her muddy clothes. She now looked much more delicate and pretty. Auntie Li said loudly, "Let's eat!"
Everyone started eating. Wei Huo ate a pancake. The taste was novel, especially the rose flowers in the pancake. Wei Huo felt the Qi and blood in his body circulate faster.
Wei Huo only felt his Qi and blood circulate faster. However, the faces of Xiao Bin, Mo Guyun, and the young women in the Rose Garden turned red. Their breathing quickened, and their bodies heated up. Their foreheads were covered in sweat.
Something was not right …
Wei Huo pondered for a moment and said, "I'm done eating. Tell me the location of the Mountain God. I'll go meet him. I have many questions to ask him!"
Auntie Li's breathing quickened as she said, "How can a man eat so little? How can he 'work' if he doesn't eat his fill? "
The women present immediately blushed and lowered their heads.
Wei Huo lifted his head slightly and looked around with his cold eyes. Everyone present immediately felt a chill that went straight to their bones. The burning feeling was instantly suppressed, and everyone broke out in a cold sweat. Auntie Li's body trembled as well. She recalled that Wei Huo was the one who had alarmed the Mountain God. Wei Huo's body trembled.
Xiao Bin was indeed an expert at reading people's expressions. He immediately stood up and said, "Big Brother Wei is a Qi Refinement expert. He can already abstain from eating, so he doesn't eat much. We'll just eat."
Wei Huo's cold eyes gradually regained their warmth. Wei Huo had unconsciously treated everyone present as juniors. How dare a junior speak to an elder like that? Are you tired of living?
After all, he had lived for over 300 years. His ideology and mindset had changed drastically. He would unconsciously treat others as juniors.
Auntie Li returned to normal. She stood up and said respectfully, "I'll take you to the Mountain God. The Mountain God seems to want to see you."
Wei Huo nodded and left with Auntie Li. The scene fell into silence. Xiao Bin said, "Let's continue eating. This fruit is really delicious … It's so sour!"
The atmosphere returned, and everyone started eating happily. However, Xiao Bin and Mo Guyun did not dare touch the flower pancake.
Wei Huo followed Auntie Li and left the Rose Manor. They walked along a path that had been stepped on and up a green mountain.
