At ten o 'clock in the evening, the opening hours ended on time. However, there was still something to do today. Yes, it was to purchase ingredients. After closing the door, Mo Tiankong left with Auspicious.
Haikou Street had changed a lot. Mo Tiankong walked and strolled. Even at ten o 'clock in the evening, there were still many people on the street.
In the past, the whole street was filled with restaurants. Now, many places had been changed into houses. There were also some shops, but there were no elixir shops or weapon shops.
There was no business in these shops next to the grocery store. Although the number of items in the shops was not many, each of them was of high quality. Moreover, after several updates, the variety was more complete.
Mo Tiankong casually found a restaurant and went in. He hadn't eaten dinner yet, and he didn't need to cook today. He ordered a table full of dishes and didn't lack money. As for not being able to finish it, it was impossible. After all, Ji Xiang was here.
He ordered so much for Auspicious to eat. He could also try the dishes and secretly learn from them.
Mo Tiankong was not a professional chef. Many of the methods of cooking seafood were based on books and TV shows on Earth. Eating in a restaurant was also a learning experience.
Being near the sea, these restaurants were definitely more familiar with the methods of sea beasts and seafood. At least they were professionals.
Mo Tiankong liked to cook, but there were many dishes that he had not eaten, only seen. Moreover, he could not distinguish between the side dishes and seasonings. There were also some dishes that he did not know how to cook.
Every time he went out to purchase ingredients, he would habitually eat in a restaurant. Currently, some of the dishes he cooked were relatively simple, such as steaming, stewing, roasting, frying, and so on. He did not know how to cook them.
It was more difficult for Mo Tiankong to stir-fry. The heat control, knife skills, stir-frying method, and time were more difficult.
Mo Tiankong did not eat much. It was mainly because of the God-tier kitchen utensils at home and the seasoning box. He always felt that the taste was very ordinary. However, Auspicious did not care about this. As long as it was meat, it would finish it.
After eating and drinking to his heart's content, Mo Tiankong paid one spirit stone. This was because he had ordered some graded demon beast meat, so the price was so expensive. However, one spirit stone was not something that Mo Tiankong cared about.
With his current wealth, no matter how much he ate, he wouldn't go bankrupt, unless it was the meat of high-grade demonic beasts. However, it was still rare to see it in ordinary restaurants.
It was impossible for them to sell those hunted by their clans, as they didn't even have enough to eat. Only the idle experts and mercenaries would be able to sell some, but there wouldn't be too much.
There were very few mercenary groups that could hunt and kill high-level demonic beasts. Only Martial Kings could be considered as high-level demonic beasts. Generally, only the stronger mercenary groups had the strength to do so.
A mercenary group without a Martial King expert in charge would be courting death if they dared to hunt a Martial King level demonic beast.
After leaving the restaurant, Mo Tiankong began looking for stalls that sold Demonic Beasts or seafood.
There were still many stalls in the alley, and business was better at night. Many of the stalls were surrounded by martial artists.
Not all of them sold Demonic Beasts or seafood. There were also all kinds of weapons, pills, and secret treasures. There were all kinds of miscellaneous things.
Mo Tiankong clicked his tongue in wonder. It seemed that there were indeed benefits to be gained, and these people dared to scam others.
What Earth Grade broken sword? They were so blatantly scamming people. However, there were still martial artists who fell for it. Brother, you better open your eyes. If it was really an Earth Grade weapon, you wouldn't even have a chance.
Mo Tiankong wasn't too clear on how weapons were graded. However, Mo Tiankong had an Earth Grade weapon, and even a Heaven Grade weapon. With one comparison, he could tell.
Without stopping, Mo Tiankong strolled around like this, preparing to buy when he came back. His main purpose was to see if the old man from before was still around.
Mo Tiankong also wanted to test the Wangzai milk and see if an aspiring martial artist could use it.
He didn't see the old man at the previous stall, so Mo Tiankong continued walking.
After walking for a while, when he was about to leave Haikou Street, he saw the old man's stall. Judging from his aura, he had already become a martial artist.
"Old man, pack up the rest." Mo Tiankong walked up.
"Oh, okay, Mo … Store Manager Mo." The old man saw that there weren't many seafood left in the stall, so he raised his head and said, "Oh, okay, Mo … Store Manager Mo."
Mo Tiankong was stunned. This old man recognized him.
"Store Manager Mo, these are all for you." The old man quickly said.
"Old man, there's no need. Just count it." Mo Tiankong was a little embarrassed. It wasn't right to buy things without paying. More importantly, the old man had specially come, as if he was here to scam him.
Last time, he had also given him a bottle of Wangzai milk as a gift.
"Store Manager Mo, these things are far inferior to Wangzai milk. Thank you for allowing an old man like me to embark on the path of martial arts." The old man used honorifics the whole time, making Mo Tiankong a little embarrassed. It was a little unbearable for someone several times his age to use honorifics.
There were many things that could change on the path of martial arts. When one reached a certain level of cultivation, it could even increase one's lifespan. In short, it could change a person's life. Originally, they could enjoy their old age in peace, but embarking on the path of martial arts might cause them to die early. Perhaps they could continue to cultivate and become strong, but the future was uncertain.
"Okay, then I'll accept it. I wish you a prosperous martial arts career," Mo Tiankong said as he took the things.
Mo Tiankong didn't mind that the old man knew him. With 99% of the reputation in Sentinel Town, it was normal for the old man to recognize him. Moreover, his clothes were very stylish, the kind that could be recognized at a glance.
After all, even if the warriors here dressed strangely, they wouldn't be at the level of Mo Tiankong. Big pants, short sleeves, and flip-flops. Hehe, there were probably not many people who didn't recognize him.
It was still possible for ordinary people to not recognize him, but once they stepped into the martial arts circle, it was impossible not to recognize him. After all, the effect of Wangzai was not comparable to the effect of pills in the warrior realm. Even if they hadn't bought it before, they would definitely have heard of the grocery store in Sentinel Town.
As for how the old man recognized him, perhaps it was because his friends and family had told him when he took Wangzai. As long as he described Mo Tiankong's style of dressing, most people would still be able to recognize him.
He still had his guard up. He drank whatever others gave him. He wasn't stupid. To him, his life was still important, so he would definitely ask about it.
This also proved that Wangzai actually had a range of effects. The Kuang Tie, which was at the martial master level, only had a healing effect after using it. Then, when an aspiring martial artist used it, it had the effect of cleansing the body.
After all, Wangzai's introduction said that it was limited to one use for martial artists. It didn't say that martial artists of other levels couldn't use it, nor did it say what effects it would have after taking it.
However, after a simple test, he still figured it out. Just like Wangzai Small Mantou and Wangzai QQ Candy, it had a range of effects.
This meant that the items on the shelves for the first time could be used across levels. The old man had become a martial artist, which meant that the Wangzai milk could be used when one was at the martial artist level and at the aspiring martial artist level.
After receiving the food, Mo Tiankong turned around and walked back. This amount definitely wouldn't last long, so he had to go to other stalls to buy more.
After all, with Auspicious, it was equivalent to a few servings of Mo Tiankong's food. He had to buy more.
On the way back, Mo Tiankong also bought beast meat and other ingredients from other stalls on the way back to the store.
After sorting out the ingredients in the kitchen and putting Auspicious back into the card space, Mo Tiankong went upstairs. It was almost twelve o 'clock.
.....
Friday.
Mo Tiankong woke up before the System reminded him. He had noodles for breakfast, seafood noodles. The noodles were packaged from a restaurant.
"Slurp" Mo Tiankong finished the last mouthful of noodles and drank the soup. It was very satisfying.
Auspicious had finished eating a long time ago. Mo Tiankong gave most of the seafood to it, so of course, it was only a matter of a few mouthfuls.
However, it was good enough to have something to eat. Mo Tiankong rarely made breakfast, so Auspicious was not picky.
It was almost time for business. Mo Tiankong didn't delay and got up to open the door. Auspicious picked up a bowl and quickly ran to the kitchen. The rest of the work was up to it.
When he opened the door, there were still many martial artists waiting outside. As the door opened, the martial artists from the restaurant in the distance also ran over.
After greeting them, Mo Tiankong turned around and entered the store. The martial artists also swarmed in.
"Hey, did you feel it last night? There was a lot of movement in Zhang Mansion," a martial artist who entered later said to his companions.
"I felt it. The vitality fluctuations in the entire Sentry Town were abnormal."
"Yeah, yeah. Could it be that someone broke through to the Martial Emperor Realm?"
"They must have bought the Five Elements Pinball."
"Who else can afford it?"
"Of course, there's usually no movement."
The martial artists in the hall were all discussing and guessing. In fact, last night's movement had not affected the grocery store. The System's soundproofing was very good. Not only was it soundproof, but it also blocked out everything.
Therefore, Mo Tiankong was sleeping soundly and didn't know anything. However, after hearing the topic, Mo Tiankong could guess some things.
They must have used the Five Elements Pinball to break through to the Martial Emperor Realm. Thinking about it, who bought it? The Zhang and Tang family bought it. Although the heads of the Li and Ye families didn't come, there should be two families who bought some of the later ones.
The rest of the Mad Lion didn't buy it. They couldn't use it. There were also 16 big and small forces who didn't buy it. He didn't know if they couldn't afford it or if they didn't have a martial artist at the peak of the Martial King Realm to use it. They probably didn't buy it.
Listening to these people's words, the vitality fluctuations in the entire Sentry Town were very strong. Could it be that they had made an appointment to break through at the same time?
Breaking through from the Martial King Realm to the Martial Emperor Realm was one of the ways to comprehend the Power of the Five Elements. Heaven and earth would also have a feedback. Not only would the vitality increase greatly, but the Power of the Five Elements would also be transformed. If several families broke through at the same time, it would be reasonable to cause such a big movement.
As for why there was no movement when Mo Tiankong broke through, one reason was that Mo Tiankong was in the grocery store and the System blocked it. Another reason was that Mo Tiankong didn't need to absorb the vitality of heaven and earth and the Power of the Five Elements. After the turnover was transformed by the System, it directly generated the energy needed to inject into Mo Tiankong.
