Through He Suoqiu, Qi Ying knew that there was indeed something special in Daoxin Mountain. Every once in a while, some "gods" would come to the island and go to Daoxin Mountain one by one.
In the past few decades, He Suoqiu has served as a guide for many "gods".
It's just that there is hot magma in the mountain in the center of the island, which is constantly spurting out through the big crack in the middle of the mountain. Even most of the "gods" have difficulty entering the mountain. A very small number of "gods" try their best to go in and investigate. Later, in the end, they returned without success. According to the news He Suoqiu heard from those "gods", there should be a "treasure" with extremely high temperature power in the mountain in the center of the island. It is very precious to the "gods", but there is no way to obtain it.
"Qi 'Shenren' must also be here for the treasures in the mountain in the center of the island!" He Suoqiu said respectfully. "If the gods want to see the treasure, I can lead a safe path that other gods have walked. Some places are very dangerous. Even the gods will be in danger if they go in."
"Very good. Thank you."
Qi Ying also cupped his hands to express his gratitude.
When you go to a country, do as the Romans do. Since others follow the rules, you should also treat each other politely.
During this trip, Qi Ying's search for treasures and materials was only a secondary purpose. Refinement of the mind was the top priority. Only after he became more aware of every inch of land and every piece of air in the Ziji Continent could his strength be further improved.
Every step of the cultivation path from now on will have no precedent and will all depend on personal exploration.
There is even no way to learn from the cultivation experience in the main world. After all, Qi Ying is only a venerable person in the main world, and the highest level of ability he has come into contact with does not exceed the power of Tao. He can achieve it in Ziji Continent. The level of the Holy Master of Xuanguang Realm can be considered as a super-level performance due to chance.
"Qi Shenren has come a long way and is full of travels. You must be hungry, right?" He Suoqiu said very enthusiastically, "We haven't had a god come here in the past few years. Now that Qi Shenren is here, he must be considerate. Hospitality makes Qishen people feel at home.”
Qi Ying smiled and said: "You don't have to be so polite."
He Suoqiu looked solemn: "No matter what, we must stay for dinner."
Qi Ying thought for a while and agreed. It happened that he had not known the taste of grains for a long time, so it would be good to try some delicious food on this island.
Others walked across the street to greet Qi Ying, but He Suoqiu took Qi Ying to his simple courtyard - of course, here, a house with a roof and four walls could be considered a "luxury house".
He Suoqiu was obviously a well-known person in the village. While most people, including women, were not fully clothed and their private parts could not be covered, He Suoqiu also had his chest exposed, but wore plain trousers and a sturdy Wearing leather boots, it seems that he is quite old, while other islanders are generally not very old, and old people are rarely seen. This shows that this island is really barren, and it is difficult to even feed people.
No wonder there is very little cultivator aura. The few cultivators who have aura may have swallowed some treasures, have "natural power" and become strong laborers in the village.
Qi Ying learned from He Suoqiu that the original indigenous people on the island were indeed people who drank blood like hair. However, starting hundreds of years ago, "gods" came here one after another to teach them etiquette, language, etc., and the indigenous people were the most in awe. Gods naturally regard the etiquette ordered by Gods as golden rules and do not dare to violate them. Every child has cultivated a culture of etiquette from an early age, even if he does not know a word, there is a sour taste in his speech and behavior.
"That's interesting."
Qi Ying thought of the indigenous people in Yuehua Realm. If Mo Mo had completely cut off the cultivator culture there, it would probably be much better than this village. After all, Yuehua Realm is very rich and has sufficient resources, so the culture will develop sooner or later. There are no resources on this island, and the culture has become a bit funny and different as it develops.
I can't even afford clothes. I don't want to think about how to grow more food and weave more cloth, but I learn etiquette first and speak politely... It's really putting the cart before the horse.
It was only a few steps away from He Suoqiu's yard. When he arrived at the yard, Qi Ying found that there were several people in He Suoqiu's home. There were nearly ten people, old and young, in total, which was considered an absolute household in the village.
Especially He Suoqiu's father was also there, which surprised Qi Ying. He Suoqiu was in his forties at least, so this old man must be sixty years old, right? For the native islanders, this is an absolute longevity.
Like He Suoqiu and other villagers, the old man was also very enthusiastic. After hearing that Qi Ying was going to have a meal here, he even said radiantly: "The arrival of the god has made our He family shine! The god is going to be here." We still have to wait a little while for the meal, but it will be fine soon."
After that, he and his family walked to the backyard behind the house.
Qi Ying smiled and said to He Suoqiu: "I didn't expect that my father-in-law would have to cook in person at this age. It's really embarrassing. Your father must be the oldest person in the village, right? He has rich cooking experience. I want to come today I’ll be in for a treat.”
However, He Suoqiu smiled and shook his head: "Ah, Qi Shenren misunderstood. My father did not go to the Dingchao job, but went to the backyard to cleanse himself and wash himself. Originally, it was reserved for the family to eat together during the New Year, but now Shenren When I came to visit, there was no other meat at home, so I ate in advance.”
Qi Ying was a little confused when he heard this, and couldn't help but laugh at himself: "I guess it's because I'm not well-educated. When I heard Mr. He speak, I felt a bit awkward. I actually felt that Mr. He was going to feed me my father-in-law, which almost scared me."
He Suoqiu said: "The Gods expected it to be true... There was no food harvest this year, and the hunters didn't bring anything to eat, so I had no choice but to let my father go first."
hiss…
This time Qi Ying was really scared and gasped!
Qi Ying knows about cannibalism! Many barbarian natives are cannibals, just like many insects and animals cannibalize their own kind. They have not gotten rid of their primitive habits. However, just like He Suoqiu, he took cannibalism so naturally and spoke about it in a humble and polite tone... Even Qi Ying, who had traveled countless places, had never heard of it!
Especially when the other party wants to treat him to his father.
"Do you mean what you said?"
"Is there something wrong?" He Suoqiu was stunned, and when he saw Qi Ying's changed expression, he was a little panicked.
Qi Ying only felt a fire rising from his stomach. In his two lives, he had been a child who wanted to support his parents but refused to be loved. He couldn't do anything to honor his parents, but the person in front of him actually did such a disobedient thing. This was his real It was unbearable. Although there was a precedent in Tianluo Continent where a hunter killed his wife and cooked meat and vegetables for the royal family in order to please the down-and-out royal family, it was nowhere near as bad as this!
