After Lu Ping's group of four left, the other students of Canyon Peak Academy also moved quickly and set off in groups of three to five. Although what happened last night had nothing to do with them, the atmosphere was still a little tense. No one knew if something like last night's incident would happen again. No one was in the mood for sightseeing when they first came up the mountain. They hurried on their way to avoid the people from the City Lord's Mansion. Even the students who liked to hang out with Wei Tianqi didn't want to get into trouble.
They walked the mountain for a whole day. Everyone was on tenterhooks, but they didn't run into any trouble. At dusk, the students walked out of the mountain pass one after another. They had finally made it out of Canyon Peak Mountain. The scenery in front of them suddenly became clear. It was no longer the mountain slopes and strange rocks they were used to seeing, but a boundless plain. It was a flat and straight road that led to the mountain pass. Those who had never been out of the Gorge Peak Area had never seen such a road. Just a few glances at it could relieve the fatigue of walking for a whole day.
Continue!
Many students were intrigued by the straight and flat road. They didn't stop at the mountain pass, but continued walking along the road. It seemed that they were going to travel through the night.
"What are we going to do?" Morin sat on the ground as soon as he left the mountain pass. How could he not be tired after walking for a whole day? Moreover, he wasn't a mountain villager who hadn't seen the world. He wouldn't be so relaxed by a road that could be seen everywhere except in Canyon Peak District.
"You guys decide." Siffin didn't express his opinion. He didn't walk this road on his own. It was actually quite inconvenient to use a wheelchair on the mountain road. Therefore, he was actually carried by Lu Ping and Su Tang for most of the time. But now, the two of them looked as if nothing had happened.
"Why isn't there a sports car?" Su Tang looked around, but because there were very few people going in and out of Canyon Peak Mountain every day, no coachman would do business here. Aside from a road sign pointing to the entrance to Canyon Peak District, there was nothing else on the main road.
"Let's walk a little further. There's a small town up ahead. It's better to spend the night there," a Canyon Peak student said to them and left in a hurry. His companion, on the other hand, became very nervous because of this action of his, and kept looking in the direction of the mountain pass, and when he returned, he could not help but complain to him.
After what happened last night, many Canyon Peak students had a good impression of Lu Ping and Su Tang. But after all, they had offended Wei Tianqi, so no one dared to get too close to them, lest they take out their anger on them. That person just came over to talk to Lu Ping when he saw that there were no Wei family members around. But when he returned, he was immediately complained by his companion. There were no Wei family members here, but there were many people who wanted to curry favor with the Wei family. Who knew what would happen if they were seen by someone with ulterior motives?
Seeing their attitude, Lu Ping and Su Tang held back their words. They smiled and didn't take it to heart.
"So, do you want to sleep here or go to the town?" The two looked back at Morin and asked. This guy was sitting on the ground just now, but now he was lying flat on his back.
"Town … Town … Oh, Wangshan Town." Morin seemed to have thought of something. He looked determined and stood up again. "Let's go to Wangshan Town. The shrimp congee shop at the east end of the street is very good. I'll take you there."
With that, he strode on his way, causing Lu Ping and Su Tang to look at each other.
"Why do you like it so much?" Su Tang sighed.
"It's the Pivot Soul!" Siffin said.
"I've seen a lot of people who are proficient in the Pivot Soul, but there aren't many who are as gluttonous as him," Su Tang said as he pushed Siffin and followed behind.
"It's said that this is also a kind of Pivot Soul cultivation," Siffin said.
"Then this cultivation is really easy." Su Tang sighed.
The four of them continued on their way. Because Morin had such a motivation, he didn't complain about being tired. He actually walked to Wangshan Town in one go.
"Shrimp congee, shrimp congee!" This guy shouted the moment he stepped into the town. Lu Ping and the other two followed him helplessly and were taken to a small shop at the east end of the street by him. Seeing the flag with the word "Porridge" fluttering in the wind, Morin's face was solemn.
"Quick, help me over …" Morin looked like he was about to kneel down. His physical strength had finally reached its limit. His legs were trembling, but he didn't change his determination to eat porridge.
Lu Ping helplessly stepped forward to help him, and the four of them walked to the shop together.
Among the four of them, Lu Ping didn't have a particularly outstanding Spirit of Qi. However, they were all at the First or Second Heaven Realm, and their sense of smell was far sharper than that of ordinary people. They were walking towards the porridge shop, but the smell of alcohol was getting clearer and clearer.
"What a strong smell of alcohol!" Siffin said as he sniffed.
"What's going on?" Morin looked a little confused. His Spirit of Qi was at the Second Heaven Realm, which was stronger than Su Tang and Siffin. He had even accurately identified the source of the smell of alcohol. There was no doubt that it came from this shop. He couldn't help but look up at the big flag again to make sure that his eyes were not dazzled. It was indeed written "Porridge".
The four of them came to the door of the shop with doubts. They saw a woman sitting at a table near the door. Her long hair was messy and her face was flushed. There were six empty bottles on the table in front of her. At this time, she was holding the seventh one in her right hand. She raised her head and drank a mouthful of it. She slapped the table with her left hand and shouted, "Is my porridge ready?"
"Right away, right away!" Someone in the shop answered hurriedly.
"How fierce!" The four people outside the door were all stunned. Everyone's Spirit of Qi was good, so they didn't need to go forward to see the bottles on the woman's table. It wasn't the malt wine that the students in the mountains drank casually. It was a strong wine brewed from grains. The alcohol content of the malt wine was about four, and this woman usually drank this kind of strong wine with an alcohol content of around fifty. Ordinary people would get drunk after drinking three to five taels. But this woman, there were six empty bottles on the table, which was six liters, and she was still drinking from the seventh bottle in her hand. Even so, she was still able to call for porridge with full energy. Her alcohol tolerance was not ordinary.
"This … is it the ability of the Pivot Soul?" Siffin looked at Morin with lingering fear and asked. He was good at Spirit of Essence, and Spirit of Essence emphasized the control of mood and emotions. Therefore, things like alcohol were taboo for Spirit of Essence cultivators. Siffin had always regarded it as a drug.
"Is it the legendary wine bag?" Morin muttered to himself.
"You're making it up, right?" Su Tang said.
"No, there's this kind of ability! If you don't believe me, you can ask him. "Morin said as he looked at Lu Ping. Lu Ping had the ability to leave the poison at the bottom of the bowl when he drank porridge. Morin guessed that he could also leave behind the intoxicating ingredients in the wine when he drank it.
"Aren't those two different things?" Lu Ping said.
"Don't be so serious!" Morin said.
They didn't talk loudly, clearly not wanting others to hear them. Who would have thought that the woman, who had drunk about six and a half catties of strong wine, was not only full of energy, but her ears were also very sharp. She suddenly slammed the table and glared at the four people.
"What do you brats know? Using your ability to drink is a waste of wine. "The woman reprimanded the four people.
"Ah?"
The four people were stunned.
This woman could hear them and also knew about "ability". She should also be a cultivator, right?
"What realm?"
This was what every Spirit of Essence cultivator would do when they met other cultivators. But in the end, the four people looked at each other in dismay.
"I can't sense it … …"
They couldn't sense it. It wasn't that they couldn't sense it. This meant that the other party had a realm, but they couldn't see it. Most of the time, this was because the other party's realm was far above theirs. For example, they couldn't sense Wei Ming's realm. Clearly, that guy had some strength.
"Yi, Wei Ming!"
Lu Ping suddenly said. They had just thought of Wei Ming and didn't expect Wei Ming to appear. He walked into the porridge shop from the other side of the door. He frowned and said with a face full of disgust: "Why is there such a strong smell of alcohol?"
As he said this, his gaze turned to the woman, but the woman didn't even look at him.
"The porridge is here!" At this time, the owner of the porridge shop personally came out of the kitchen with a bowl of porridge and brought it to the woman's table. The smell of alcohol that had taken over the entire shop and the mess of wine bottles on the table didn't make him unhappy at all.
However, Wei Ming was quite disgruntled and quickly stood in front of the owner. "How can we eat with such a strong smell of alcohol?"
"If you can't eat, then please take care." The owner smiled and gestured for Wei Ming to eat.
Wei Ming only frowned slightly, but he was quite irritated inside. No one would've dared speak to him like this in the Canyon Peak district, but this was the spiritualist district. Even if the owner of the porridge shop had heard of the reputation of the twelve guards of the city lord's manor, he would never have thought that the person in front of him was Wei Ming, ranked second among the twelve guards.
Wei Ming was determined to teach him a lesson. He hadn't been in a good mood all day.
Raising his arm, Wei Ming was just about to raise his hand, but before he could even raise it by a centimeter, his wrist was grabbed by someone. It was grabbed by a drunken woman with flushed cheeks and drowsy eyes who was sitting in front of the table.
"Why are the young people these days so ill-mannered?" The woman seemed to be murmuring to herself. Wei Ming was startled and hastily tried to break free, but the woman suddenly raised her hand. It was as if all the strength he'd used to break free had been exerted on himself.
Wei Ming flew through the porridge shop's front door and rolled out onto the street. He lifted his head in a disheveled manner and saw four shocked faces. It was Lu Ping and the other three.
However, the four of them didn't seem to be interested in appreciating his predicament. They had already turned their heads in unison and cast even more shocked gazes at the woman.
No one saw how she got up or what she did, but she was already holding the bowl of porridge and walking out of the porridge shop.
"You can't drink the porridge because it smells like alcohol?" She looked at Wei Ming, who was still on the ground.
Wei Ming was also shocked. If he still couldn't realize how powerful this woman was, then he wouldn't be the city lord's think tank.
"There's no smell of alcohol here. Open your mouth," the woman said.
"What do you want to do …" Wei Ming had just shouted these three words when the woman's hand tilted. That bowl of scalding hot prawn porridge was actually poured directly into his mouth and onto his face.
"I'll treat you to porridge. No need to thank me." As the woman spoke, a bowl of porridge was instantly emptied. She waved her hand casually, and the bowl flew into the hands of the congee store's owner. The woman raised her wine bottle to show her respect to the owner. Then she cast a glance at Lu Ping and the other three, leaving them with a swaying back view.
