"Head, won't the Qingcheng Sect and Situ's family be unlucky to enter Shu Ruins this time?"
Although Gu An could not see the orchards of the other two sects, he still glanced in their direction.
"Yes, especially the Situ's family. Originally, two people could enter, but in the end, only one entered. You can imagine how much space they will have in the orchard this time."
Gu Zheng paused and then became serious. "We will enter the orchard soon. Our comprehensive strength is not high, so we must be very careful if we encounter a high-level spirit beast. Also, I don't want you to always think about me when you encounter danger. I have means of self-defense, so you should pay attention to your own safety. I hope that when we enter Shu Ruins, we will leave Shu Ruins with the same four people! "
With the Ethereal Body Illusion Skill and the Emei Ring, if a life-threatening situation still occurred, Gu An and the other two would definitely be in a more dangerous situation. Therefore, Gu Zheng needed to remind them not to be too hot-blooded and impulsive.
Gu An and the other three were stunned and immediately nodded like chickens pecking at rice. Gu Zheng's cultivation was not high, but in their hearts, he was almost omnipotent.
"Let's go, from easy to difficult. Let's first clear the spirit beasts in the Vermilion Fruit area."
Gu Zheng took the lead and entered the orchard, followed by Gu An and the others. The group moved forward cautiously, trying not to make any noise.
The exotic fruits would ripen in three days. Now, many spirit beasts must have gathered in the orchard. Although these spirit beasts were not very united, it was only relative to the whole group. At least, spirit beasts of the same species were more troublesome. Sometimes, provoking one was equivalent to provoking a group of spirit beasts.
The Vermilion Fruit Tree was the tallest among the three fruit trees. Almost every tree was eight meters tall. The red color they saw before entering the orchard was actually the crown of the Vermilion Fruit Tree.
"Ah, what a good exotic fruit! I wonder how many of them will belong to us. If only the Chaotic Space could directly collect them, it would be like a whirlwind sweeping away the clouds! "
There were more than a dozen strange fruits hanging on each Vermilion Fruit Tree. Gu Zheng sighed as he looked at the Vermilion Fruits that were hidden between the leaves and branches.
In fact, just as Gu Zheng lamented, the Untainted Space could not directly take this kind of thing that had taken root and grown. Otherwise, he would have directly taken the 1,000-year Snow Lotus during his trip to Tianshan Mountain.
"Unripe Cinnabar Fruit. Once it ripens, it will be a low-grade fruit. It's better than the little fragrant pears you ate before. One Cinnabar Fruit can increase one's inner strength cultivation by the same amount as four little fragrant pears."
The artifact spirit's voice echoed in Gu Zheng's mind, and not too far away, in the grass, a plump fellow about a meter long and covered in black hair stood up.
"Gulp …"
The thing that stood up had the head of a pig, and it let out its signature cry at Gu Zheng and the others. This fellow was none other than the low-grade spirit beast, the Purring Pig, that they had encountered on the way here.
The Purring Pig was one of the most common low-grade spirit beasts in the periphery of the Shu Ruins. They were not picky eaters, and they had strong reproductive abilities, so they were both loved and hated by cultivators.
They loved them because they were easy to hunt for their spirit pills, and hated them because they ruined a lot of resources.
Gu Zheng pointed at Zhang Tiancheng, and Zhang Tiancheng immediately walked towards the Purring Pig. The Purring Pig was not to be outdone, and it lowered its head and rammed towards Zhang Tiancheng. Although the Purring Pig was only a meter long, it was still a spirit beast. Other than its fast speed, its ramming strength was enough to crack a Niu Da rock.
Zhang Tiancheng dodged, and the Purring Pig missed its target. However, the Purring Pig's body abruptly came to an abrupt halt, completely unaffected by inertia. Its two front legs supported itself on the ground, and its two hind legs kicked toward Zhang Tiancheng's stomach like a donkey kicking a human.
Zhang Tiancheng, who was prepared, dodged again, and the inner strength he released hit the Purring Pig's waist.
"Crack …"
"Gulp …"
The sound of the Purring Pig's spine cracking was heard at the same time. Zhang Tiancheng punched the Purring Pig in the head, ending its life.
"This is a tough Purring Pig. It did not summon its companions even when it died!"
Gu Zheng sighed and commented on the Purring Pig that had died.
Although the Purring Pig was small and could not fly, its ability to pick mutant fruits was top-notch. When the mutant fruits ripened, the Purring Pig only needed to ram into the tree trunk, and the fruits would fall to the ground like rain. It was so efficient that even cultivators could not compare to it. This was because the tree trunk had a special resistance to inner strength. The effect of inner strength hitting the tree trunk was much worse than the Purring Pig ramming into the tree trunk.
Compared to the Purring Pig, cultivators were much slower when it came to picking mutant fruits. They would usually hit the tree trunk twice to ensure that all the mutant fruits that could be dropped had fallen. As for the mutant fruits that could not be dropped, it was useless to hit too many of them.
Most of the mutant fruits that fell to the ground would break. These mutant fruits were picked up and eaten by the cultivators. After all, even if they were broken, they would spoil quickly. As for the remaining mutant fruits on the tree, cultivators would use their inner strength to gently sweep them off the tree and catch them with their hands. These mutant fruits were usually of good quality. They would be brought back to the sect or offered to Mount Shu as a tribute.
Spirit Beasts had their own territories, and it was the same for them to occupy the orchard. After killing the Purring Pig, there would not be a second spirit beast around the Vermillion Fruit Tree.
Although there were more than a hundred Vermillion Fruit Trees in the orchard, they were still quite sparse when they were spread out over fifty mu of land. After killing a spirit beast around a Vermillion Fruit Tree, they would have to walk a certain distance before they could encounter another one. However, this was not a bad thing. It would save them the trouble of provoking multiple spirit beasts at the same time.
"Let's go to Number 78 Vermillion Fruit Tree."
Gu Zheng glared at the Purring Pig on the ground and left with his disciples.
The Purring Pig's body was not bad. It had more meat than a wild boar! They didn't have much fat on their small bodies. All of them were lean meat that looked very beautiful. However, it was a pity that the Purring Pig was not a domestic pig. Their meat was very smelly. Otherwise, Gu Zheng would not have let it go so easily.
Every fruit tree in the orchard had a number. Number 78 Vermillion Fruit Tree was located not far from where Gu Zheng and the rest had entered the orchard.
The reason why they wanted to go to Number 78 Vermillion Fruit Tree was because the Purple Cloud Palace had planted medicinal herbs there when the Shu Ruins opened.
In fact, the Purple Cloud Palace was not the only one who planted medicinal herbs there. Other sects did the same. Due to the changes in the rankings, no matter which sect planted the herbs, they had to inform Mount Shu clearly after leaving the Shu Ruins so that they could inform the corresponding sect when the next change in the rankings occurred.
Near Number 78 Vermillion Fruit Tree, there was a huge pear tree that needed two people to wrap their arms around it. The fruits on this pear tree were sweeter than those in the outside world, but there was nothing special about them.
The pear tree was very old. It was so old that there was a huge tree hole near the ground. The medicinal herbs planted by the Purple Cloud Palace were in that hole. In order to protect the medicinal herbs planted inside, the Purple Cloud Palace had even set up a small formation outside the tree hole that could serve as a concealment function. This was so that future generations could harvest them.
The old pear tree was very tall. Since it had been seen long ago, Gu Zheng and the rest did not spend much effort to find it. However, when Gu Zheng saw the tree hole, his expression changed instantly.
"Damn it."
The plant in the tree hole was a type of medicinal herb. However, it had been eaten by the pig. This made Gu Zheng curse angrily.
The medicinal herb that had been eaten by the pig looked like a cabbage. Its name was Crispy Red Heart. It only grew on the red soil in the orchard. Its growth cycle was considered relatively short among the medicinal herbs produced in the Shu Ruins. It only had a 10-year growth cycle.
However, although its growth cycle was short, Crispy Red Heart had a wide range of uses. Other than being used to refine beautifying pills, it was also an ingredient that tasted very good.
There was no Crispy Red Heart in the outside world at all. Its quality was almost all ordinary, but its taste was so good that it was also on the list of tributes accepted by Shu Mountain.
Don't misunderstand. Shu Mountain didn't need the 'Crispy Red Heart' to refine beauty pills. They just needed to eat it! Chicken fir, Crispy Red Heart, and Duck Palm Cattail were also the only three kinds of tributes accepted by Shu Mountain.
In the words of the weapon spirit, "The deliciousness of stir-fried Crispy Red Heart is not inferior to the deliciousness of stewed purple."
Other than hearing about Crispy Red Heart from the weapon spirit, Gu Zheng had also heard Elder Wuyou and Elder Wuchou mention it many times. They also asked Gu Zheng to bring back some Crispy Red Heart if he entered the Shu Ruins. They had not tasted Crispy Red Heart for 10 years.
Unfortunately, in the entire Shu Ruins, other than the fruit gardens of the six sects, there were very few places that could grow and grow Crispy Red Heart.
However, the time when Crispy Red Heart matured was also the time when the mutant fruits ripened. At this time, there were many spirit beasts in the fruit garden, including a large number of Growling Pigs. They liked to harm the Crispy Red Heart that had not yet ripened. Anyway, eating this kind of thing was not very good, so it did not matter whether it was ripened or not.
"If you want to bite it, you should just bite it to death. It's so painful to see them all deformed!"
There were a total of 10 Crispy Red Heart in the tree hole, and all of them had been bitten into a mess by the Growling Pigs. Liu Ying was so angry that she gritted her teeth.
"Damn Growling Pigs, every Crispy Red Heart has been bitten by it once or twice. Although they are not dead yet, they will definitely die in two or three days. Moreover, after being bitten by it, the grade of the ingredients has dropped, so there is no use in digging them out. "
Gu Zheng's lamenting voice paused, and then he sneered, "Even the formation left by the Purple Cloud Palace can't stop you? Today's lunch is yours! "
"Sect Master, you won't be so angry that you want to eat the Growling Pig, right? Its meat is very coquettish! "Gu An hurriedly reminded him.
"What are you afraid of? Don't you believe in my cooking? Can you vent your anger if you don't eat it? "Gu Zheng rolled his eyes.
"I can!"
Gu An replied subconsciously. He had already thought of a rumor in the sect.
It was said that the Growling Pig's meat smelled coquettish, and it was even more so when eaten, especially the male Growling Pig's eggs. Apart from spirit pills, the only things that could be used as resources on the Growling Pig were the male Growling Pig's eggs.
The male Growling Pig's reproductive ability was inseparable from the male Growling Pig's eggs. The male Growling Pig's eggs could indeed be used to refine special medicinal pills, which could be used by people with special status to increase the male Growling Pig's abilities.
Once upon a time, there was a senior from Shu Mountain who claimed that there was nothing he did not dare to eat. He obtained the egg of a Rumbling Pig. He gave it to an Emei disciple named 'Braised Cooking Chen' and asked him to clean it up.
'Braising Chen' was an outer disciple of Emei. He was in charge of a century-old braising shop in the outside world.
After 'Braising Chen' removed the coquettish meat from the pig's egg, he soaked it in clear water and marinated it with cooking wine. He used all the methods he could think of and finally got rid of the coquettish smell from the pig's egg.
At night, 'Braising Chen' threw the pig's egg into the century-old braising soup along with the other ingredients that were to be sold the next day.
Early the next morning, a regular customer came to his shop and asked for some braising food. He put it in the fire and vomited it all over the floor. There was no other reason. It was too stimulating!
'Braising Chen' did not believe it. After all, there was no coquettish smell in the broth or in the customer's braising. Therefore, under the customer's request, 'Braising Chen' also put some braising food in the fire and ate it.
After swallowing a mouthful of braised food, he immediately spat it out into the pot of century-old soup.
After that, the senior from Emei Sect, who claimed that there was nothing he did not dare to eat, gritted his teeth and forcefully ate a pig's egg. He immediately disappeared. When everyone saw him a month later, he was so skinny that he was only skin and bones.
"Go to hell!"
Gu Zheng laughed and kicked Gu An's butt. He naturally knew what Gu An was thinking.
"I'm not asking you to eat pig's egg. What are you afraid of? I've processed the pig's meat, so it doesn't have a coquettish smell. It's just not as satisfying as eating fried eggs. "
Gu Zheng did not lie to Gu An. If the pig's meat did not have a coquettish smell, the quality of its meat would be fine. If it weren't for Gu Zheng's picky taste and his laziness, he would have thought that the Sweet Rumble Pork was worth collecting. After all, the color of its meat was very beautiful, and beautiful meat usually wasn't bad.
"That's good, that's good."
Gu An scratched his head awkwardly and squeezed out a flattering smile. Liu Ying could not help but giggle.
"Alright, now go and find that damned pig. If it's a boar, use your fastest method to get rid of it!" Gu Zheng ordered.
Boars were different from sows. Boars would cry for help when they were no match.
"Understood."
The number one fighter, Zhang Tiancheng, immediately ran toward a patch of tall grass in front of him. It liked to lie in the grass and sleep after eating. This was one of the characteristics of the pig.
"Rumble …"
Sure enough, there was a sleeping Rumbling Pig in the bushes. When Zhang Tiancheng was about to approach it, it suddenly jumped up.
"Boar!"
Zhang Tiancheng frowned. He strode forward and grabbed the pig's mouth with one hand. Then, he punched the pig's head.
By the time Zhang Tiancheng let go of the Purring Pig, its eyes were already closed. Blood was gushing out of its mouth, and only its four hooves were left twitching uncontrollably.
Gu An and the others were in charge of the fire. Gu Zheng removed some of the pig's tenderloin and some of its hind legs.
After washing the meat, Gu Zheng was supposed to skewer it with a bamboo stick. However, he frowned.
"Sect Master, what's wrong?"
Gu An immediately asked when he saw Gu Zheng stop and frown.
"Put out the fire. Gu An, go get me some dried branches from the Vermilion Fruit Tree!"
Gu Zheng gritted his teeth. There was a hint of viciousness in his eyes. He was lazy, but since he had decided to roast the pig, he had to make it better!
Gu An used old pear wood to start the fire. However, Gu Zheng was requesting dried branches from the low-grade Vermilion Fruit Tree. Without a doubt, they were of a higher grade.
Originally, Gu Zheng had only wanted to roast the meat simply by washing it with water. However, since he had changed his mind, he had to change his method. This change didn't mean that they were switching to a higher-quality water source. Originally, they used the normal quality water source from Shu Mountain to wash the pork. Using such a water source to wash the low-quality pork didn't affect the quality of the food at all.
The purpose of washing food and utensils was to ensure that the food was clean. Using high-quality water to wash the meat was so that even if there was a residue in the water, it would not ruin the taste of the meat and lower the quality of the ingredients. Therefore, after becoming Gokusen's successor, Gu Zheng had been using low-grade Ice Mountain Mineral Water for a long time.
He did this not because he wanted to show off, but because it was necessary. In the words of the Weapon Spirit, "Low-grade water is the lowest requirement for washing. If you change to a low-grade or trashy water source, you definitely won't be able to achieve the best result if there is a residue."
Two days ago, during the trip to the back of Shu Mountain, Gu Zheng had talked to Luo Xiao about water. At that time, Luo Xiao had a question. She asked Gu Zheng, "Since the requirements for water are so strict, what about air? How can you avoid air? When you cook, you have to face air, right? "
Gu Zheng smiled and answered, "First of all, there is washing. After washing, the ingredients will be used very quickly and won't be contaminated by much other things. Even if they are not used for a while after washing, there are dust-proof measures for them. Besides, it's not like you are cooking in a place with a lot of dust like an incinerator or a power plant. How can the ingredients be contaminated? Even if there is some dust in the air, it can be ignored during the cooking process. After all, the high temperature has a purifying effect. If this is considered contamination, then the ingredients in this world shouldn't be classified into different grades. "
Originally, the meat of the Growling Pig could be skewered after washing. However, since he had decided to cook it properly, Gu Zheng hammered the tenderloin and the hind leg meat with his fist.
The meat of the wild boar was very coarse, but the meat of the Growling Pig was even coarser. Gu Zheng's hammering replaced the role of a meat hammer, loosening the meat and making it smoother and more tender.
The loosened meat was already skewered, so Gu Zheng put it aside for the time being.
Gu Zheng took out some of the chicken oil mushrooms that he had picked on the way. After washing them, he added salt and pounded them into a paste. This was also a step that he did not do when he was lazy.
Everything was ready. Under the control of Gu Zheng's Fire Control Art, the firewood in the stove was quickly turned into charcoal.
Gu Zheng placed the tenderloin and hind leg meat on the fire. He used the Fire Control Art and the Water Control Art at the same time to grill the meat in all directions.
Unlike grilling ordinary meat, Gu Zheng had to spend more immortal energy to remove the foul smell from the meat of the Growling Pig.
The meat was smoking, and the water in the meat dripped onto the fire, making sizzling sounds. At the same time, there was a pungent smell.
Gu An frowned and could not help but take a step back. The main reason he was afraid of Gu Zheng's grilled pork eggs was that his resistance to certain smells was weaker than other people's.
"Gu An, where are you going? I have a fan in my backpack. Take it out and fan the smell of the grilled meat in the direction we came from. "
Gu Zheng ordered with a smirk. Gu An agreed with a frown and took out a one-meter-tall fan from Gu Zheng's backpack.
Such a big fan was naturally an indoor pendant. It was a gift from Elder Feng, who loved spells, to Gu Zheng. However, even though it was a pendant, if it was used as a fan, the wind would be very strong as long as it could be waved.
"Huff, huff …"
Gu An was an inner strength cultivator. Ordinary people would have to struggle to wave the super big fan, but he did not seem to struggle at all. Instead, the momentum was very great. The foul smell of the grilled meat was completely fanned by him to the periphery of the orchard.
"Gu An, why do you think the Sect Master brought such a big fan with him to Shu Ruins?"
"The Sect Master wants to train me. He wants me to overcome the problem of disliking smells as soon as possible."
Gu An glared at Liu Ying, who was covering her mouth and laughing.
"Not bad. You're worth teaching." Gu Zheng smiled playfully.
There were no more water droplets on the grilled meat. They had been completely forced out by Gu Zheng using the Water Control Art. The oil and water in the meat of the Growling Pig could not be left behind. The foul smell was almost all hidden in the paste and liquid.
Everything that needed to be forced out had been forced out. There was no longer any foul smell on the Growling Pig, and a faint barbecued fragrance rose.
Gu Zheng poured the spring water that he had prepared on the side onto the grilled meat. He controlled the water to let the meat absorb the water evenly. Since the meat was already dehydrated, it had to be replenished. Otherwise, not only would the meat look overcooked, but it would also be very dry.
After letting the grilled meat absorb the medium quality water, Gu Zheng poured sesame oil on it. Water alone was not enough. Without oil, the grilled meat would not taste good.
The missing ingredients were replaced. The Growling Pig emitted a different fragrance, causing Liu Ying and Zhang Tiancheng, who had not tasted Gu Zheng's cooking, to immediately swallow their saliva.
The grilled meat had not yet been completely cooked, but Gu Zheng was certain that its taste would not be inferior to that of a low-grade grilled rabbit!
Gu Zheng spread the chicken oil mushrooms on the skewers evenly, then began a new round of grilling.
The chicken oil mushrooms were relatively tender, so they were not suitable for grilling. Gu Zheng used the Fire Control Art to control the intensity of the fire and the Water Control Art to evenly seep the juice of the chicken oil mushrooms into the meat. An exotic fragrance immediately assailed the nostrils.
The fragrance of the meat and the mushrooms intoxicated Gu Zheng, and he took a deep breath. As for the other three, only Liu Ying and Zhang Tiancheng had swallowed their saliva. Now, even Gu An, who had tasted Gu Zheng's delicacies several times, was swallowing his saliva madly.
"Gu An, you'll have to work a little harder. Continue to fan. Liu Ying, feed it to him! "
The Growling Pig's meat had already been grilled. Gu Zheng began to distribute the meat skewers, and the four immediately began to eat heartily.
"It's delicious! I've never eaten grilled meat with the fragrance of mushrooms. It's too special! This time, I unexpectedly followed the Sect Master to Shu Ruins. It seems that I'm going to start a journey of eating to my heart's content. I'm so happy. Thank you, Sect Master! "
Liu Ying's sweet words made Gu Zheng laugh.
"Don't just talk. It's my turn to eat. Hurry up!"
Gu An fanned himself with both hands and urged Liu Ying with his mouth.
"It's delicious. I want to eat two more skewers!"
Among the few of them, Zhang Tiancheng ate the fastest. He, who had not swallowed the grilled meat in his mouth, immediately began to order.
"Okay, let's finish the tenderloin with two skewers each. As for the hind leg meat, I'll keep it for other uses."
Gu Zheng did not grill too much this time. After handing two skewers to Zhang Tiancheng, he took a bite of the grilled meat and tasted it carefully.
To be honest, the fact that the Growling Pig could be grilled like this was completely beyond Gu Zheng's expectations! If he had to find a dish to compare the taste, Gu Zheng felt that if he cooked the roasted bamboo rat alone, the taste would be on par with the current Growling Pig.
Although they were almost on par, this was undoubtedly a huge breakthrough for Gu Zheng. After all, the quality of the raw materials was too poor. It was so poor that when he asked the Artifact Spirit, the Artifact Spirit was unwilling to give an evaluation.
As he thought of the Weapon Spirit, the Weapon Spirit's voice rang in Gu Zheng's mind.
"The Growling Pig's quality was originally trash. After Gokusen's successor removed the foul smell, the grade of the ingredient became inferior. After being carefully modified by Gokusen's successor and supplemented with seasonings, the overall taste of the dish has reached the ordinary grade! "
"Lord Gokusen once said that the path of cooking does not rely on good ingredients to make delicious food. You can also make delicious food with poor ingredients. This is a more advanced cooking skill. It is a method to turn something rotten into something magical. It is a shining point in the path of cooking!"
"Congratulations, Gokusen's successor. You have completed the hidden mission left behind by Lord Gokusen. The reward is …"
The Weapon Spirit's words stunned Gu Zheng. He did not expect that a moment of stubbornness would actually allow him to complete a hidden mission!
As for the reward given by the Weapon Spirit, although it was very simple, it was so good that Gu Zheng was dumbfounded. Unfortunately, the items rewarded by the mission had a cultivation restriction. This restriction was something that Gu Zheng was unable to satisfy for the time being.
After waking up from his joy, Gu Zheng looked at Gu An and the others. "Are you all done eating?"
"We're done eating, but we're not full yet!"
Liu Ying was the first to answer, her face full of dissatisfaction.
Gu Zheng smiled slightly. "I know that you're not hungry. It's fine as long as you eat something delicious. If you really want to eat until you're full, you'll have to wait until I'm free and the time is right."
"Sect Master, do you have a plan?"
Gu Zheng was now roasting the hind leg meat again. However, he had said that he would keep the meat for his own use, so Zhang Tiancheng could not help but ask this question.
"You'll know soon enough."
Gu Zheng smiled and kept them in suspense.
After a while, the hind leg meat was completely roasted. Gu Zheng said, "Gu An, you can stop fanning now."
As he spoke, Gu Zheng placed the roasted hind leg meat into a beast skin bag. Then, he took out the immortal wine he had brewed and poured it into the bag.
The reason he had asked Gu An to fan the meat earlier was because the lard in the roasted meat had not been washed clean. The smell of the lard could irritate the Purring Pig. Although a single Purring Pig was not scary, Gu Zheng did not want to face a group of them.
"Sect Master, you're not trying to make the spirit beasts drunk, are you? It's not that no one has ever used this method before, but it's not effective at all. On the contrary, using this method will easily anger the spirit beasts! "
Although Gu Zheng still did not explain what he meant by keeping the meat for his own use, Zhang Tiancheng already understood.
There had never been a particularly good way to deal with the spirit beasts in the orchard. In the process of searching for a solution, they had come up with all kinds of methods. Among them, the method of using food as bait included trapping the cloth, drugging the food, and of course, adding wine to the food.
Regardless of the method, as long as it was related to food, the results were not ideal. The spirit beasts in the Shu Ruins had a natural resistance and caution towards processed food and added ingredients. Moreover, as Zhang Tiancheng had said, using this method would easily anger the spirit beasts. Some people also joked that the spirit beasts would be angered by this method because they felt that their intelligence had been insulted!
"You're right. I want to use this method. When we reach the place where the high-level spirit beasts are, I'll throw the food first. You guys can go after the spirit beasts are affected. "
Gu Zheng's confidence was not without reason. As early as when he was in Shu Mountain, he had asked the weapon spirit about this question.
The weapon spirit told Gu Zheng that the spirit beasts in the Shu Ruins were not as smart as people thought. As for insulting their intelligence, that was even more nonsense! The reason why this method did not work was that the food or wine was crude.
Think about it, who would be like Gu Zheng, using high-level ingredients as bait? Who would be like Gu Zheng, a prodigal who used immortal wine to feed meat? Moreover, he poured half a kilogram of it without blinking his eyes.
In fact, Gu Zheng was just lazy. There was no need to use this method at all for beginner and intermediate spirit beasts. As long as they did not encounter a group, Gu Zheng and the others could kill them one by one without any problem.
As for the high grade Spirit Beasts, with Gu Zheng's current cultivation, he would be able to hold them back while the others would support him from the sidelines. There wouldn't be any problems if they were dealt with one by one! But who asked Gu Zheng to be so lazy? If there was an easier method, why would he use the harder one? He did not care about the barbecued meat. If he ran out of immortal wine, he could brew it again. The method that others did not use was the best for him.
Gu Zheng brought the bait that he had prepared. Gu An and the others followed behind him and set off towards the area where the Blood Crystal Grapevine was.
The idea was beautiful, but the reality was cruel. It was not as simple as it seemed to be to get close to the Blood Crystal Grapevine.
There were still three days before the fruit ripened. Most of the spirit beasts were now in the central area of the orchard. The spirit peaches and the Blood Crystal Grapevine, which were more effective, were very tempting. They were forced to wander around the central area of the orchard.
However, not all of the spirit beasts were in the central area. Some of the spirit beasts who knew their place would stay in the periphery and guard the Vermilion Fruit Tree. When the fruit ripened on the third day, a fierce fight broke out in the central area. Many spirit beasts woke up from the temptation of the spirit peaches and the Blood Crystal Grapevine. When they rushed to the periphery, the spirit beasts that were originally in the periphery were almost full.
