The next day, early in the morning, Chu Rui was already out of bed!
The townspeople were cut off from the rest of the world, so they all woke up early and went out to work early! Even with the large amount of resources that Chu Rui had distributed, it would not be a problem for them to last for a month or two even if they did nothing at home. However, to these simple farmers who were already used to working, idling for a day or two was enough to make them itch all over. They were the type of people who would never forget their roots. Even though they had eaten delicacies that they had never eaten before, they knew that it was not easy.
Laziness was the original sin!
They were all people who faced the yellow earth with their backs to the sky. They would never forget the ironclad rule that only hard work could make a living!
After strolling outside for a while, Chu Rui returned to Zhang Tong's house. His wife had already prepared breakfast and the whole family was waiting for him to return.
Rice porridge and soy milk were nothing much. However, when Chu Rui picked up the big and white bun and took a bite, his eyes immediately widened.
"What's wrong, Sir? Is this bun not to your taste?"
Although Zhang Tong's wife was the wife of a general, in a place like this, even though she had seen a lot and was a lady from a prestigious family, her horizons were not as broad as before. Moreover, Chu Rui was not only the envoy of the Dragon God Emperor and could not be offended, but he was also a super VIP of the entire Lishan Town. He was arranged to stay at her house because of her husband, Zhang Tong. If she did not treat him well, she might be blamed.
"This!" Chu Rui swallowed the food in his mouth and looked at Zhang Tong's wife with a burning gaze. He asked with great enthusiasm, "Sister-in-law, what ingredients did you use for this bun?"
"What ingredients?" Seeing that Chu Rui did not seem to be blaming her, Zhang Tong's wife sighed in relief. Then, she was a little confused. This was just a normal bun, what was so strange about it? However, she still answered Chu Rui's question honestly, "This bun is made from the wheat that my family grew and ground. The filling is made from the meat of the Millennium Flame Chicken and some …"
Chu Rui was stunned, completely stunned. When he heard the words' Millennium Flame Chicken ', he was instantly stunned! The meat of the Thousand Year Flame Chicken was incomparably tender, with the right amount of fat and lean. The texture of the meat was unique and neither greasy nor dirty. Moreover, the most difficult thing to say was that the meat of the Thousand Year Flame Chicken did not require any seasoning. Its meat was flavorful, with a salty and slightly spicy taste. Eating the meat of the Thousand Year Fire Chicken was not only good for the body, it was also beneficial to the cultivation of fire-type cultivators.
In the outside world, one tael of Thousand Year Turkey Meat was hard to find and would not be exchanged for even a thousand taels of gold. If one had it, who wouldn't cook it meticulously in order to stimulate all of its potential? However, here, it was directly kneaded into a ball and made into the filling of a bun.
Chu Rui felt his face distort. Since yesterday, he had known that Lishan Town was a monster. However, from the looks of it, he was still too conservative!
"Ding! You have eaten a Thousand Year Flame Chicken Bun. Strength permanently increased by 50 points. Fire Resistance permanently increased by 20%!"
When Chu Rui swallowed the last mouthful of the bun, the system notification echoed in his ears, causing his face to twitch.
F * ck, there's such an effect?
Chu Rui's eyes suddenly turned red!
Even if his four basic attributes had all exceeded a million points, and his Fire Resistance was in the thousands, no matter how small a mosquito was, it was still meat. Moreover, he could obtain it just by eating some food. Where else could he find such a good thing?
Once again, he wolfed down a Thousand Year Turkey Meat Bun, but the expected increase in stats did not occur, causing Rui to be a little surprised.
F * ck, this is a one-time use item. The effect can only be used once. F * ck!
Wonton!
Immediately, Chu Rui looked at the steaming wonton again!
"Ding! You have eaten a bowl of Ten Thousand Year Wild Boar King Wonton in Chili Oil. Physique permanently increased by 80 points. Physical Defense permanently increased by 5%!"
Chu Rui's face twitched. Then, under the strange gaze of Mrs. Zhang Tong, his eyes fiercely swept across the beef noodles, white rice porridge, and soy milk!
…
"Sir, the ancestral land of the Tomb Guardian Tribe is right in front of us!"
Zhang Tong led the way in front, pointing at a dilapidated village that could already be seen. He looked at Chu Rui with a strange gaze.
"Burp …"
Rui let out another burp, and rubbed his stomach that wasn't bulging, but felt very bloated. Even though his body was suffering, he didn't think so in his heart. If it were anyone else, they would not be at a disadvantage if they could obtain so many attribute points just by eating breakfast.
"Uh, okay!"
Chu Rui wanted to say something to Zhang Tong, but it was a little inconvenient, so he just nodded in response.
"Sir, the Tomb Guardian Tribe has existed since an unknown time. For so many years, they have never changed, and have never left this place. They have guarded the tomb for the First Emperor for generations. We have the same goal as them, so we received a little kindness. They have never welcomed outsiders. Even though we have been here for so long, we have only interacted with them slightly and have never approached the foot of Mount Li. They will not allow anyone to enter the outermost area of the First Emperor Tomb. This time, their elders want to meet you because of the Great Emperor's decree and my guarantee. Whether it succeeds or not depends on you, Sir. "
If it had been yesterday, Zhang Tong would not have said so much nonsense. However, after Chu Rui's crazy purchase and distribution of resources, his temperament had changed instantly. Even though he did not know why the Divine Dragon Great Emperor and this ridiculously young but ridiculously powerful young man before him wanted to enter the First Emperor Tomb, he would not ask about it. He just needed to do his job well.
"Well, I'll have to trouble you, General Zhang. Once we reach the Tomb Guardian Tribe, you can go back. I will persuade them."
Chu Rui smiled faintly. He had naturally noticed the change in Zhang Tong's temperament compared to when he had seen him in the military camp yesterday. However, guarding the tomb for someone like the First Emperor was definitely not an ordinary person. Even though Zhang Tong's strength was at level 105, he was still too weak. If there were any changes, he would not be able to escape at all. Moreover, even if the Tomb Guardian Tribe did not allow him to enter the First Emperor Tomb, they might vent their anger on Zhang Tong if he snuck in quietly. Therefore, it was better to let him leave as soon as possible.
"Milord, even though my words don't carry much weight, I've been neighbors with the Gravekeeper Clan for a long time. I'm sure I can say something. I've met their patriarch a few times, so I'm sure he'll give me some face."
