Southern Xinjiang Prefecture, Yingchun County.

Located beside the vast blue coastline, it is a county town close to the sea.

Xu Yeyu walked into the city gate and what came into view was a wide bluestone street with various shops on both sides.

There were crowds of people walking around and the sound of pipa could be heard from the alley.

Xu Yeyu has been away from Sunset Sect for a month. At his current speed, it will take him another two months to leave Southern Xinjiang Province.

He planned to buy some dry food in this county town, as he would need to cross a long sea route next.

If you want to eat, you have to go somewhere else, which is a waste of time.

Xu Yeyu walked to a fruit shop.

The boss asked enthusiastically, "Young man, do you want to buy some fruit?"

Yingchun County is close to the sea, and some people come here to take a boat to other places.

The boss had met several monks, so he naturally knew how to address them.

It is absolutely right to call the young male monk "young hero".

Xu Yeyu nodded and said, "I'll buy some fruit."

The boss handed Xu Yeyu a wooden basket and said, "The fruits here are guaranteed to be fresh. You can choose whatever you like."

He originally planned to give some fruit to the young man and did not intend to charge him any money.

But the boss had already handed Xu Yeyu four wooden baskets. If it was just a few oranges or apples, he really didn't intend to charge him.

"Young man, are you sure you want to buy so much?" the boss couldn't help asking.

The monks who came to his shop before would at most buy a few oranges to eat.

The boss had never seen a monk buy so much fruit.

"I won't be on land for some time, so I need to store more food."

Xu Yeyu picked a few more peaches and then handed four wooden baskets to the boss.

"Boss, how much do these fruits cost?" Xu Yeyu asked.

The boss placed the fruits in four wooden baskets on the scale pan one by one and weighed them four times.

After a while, the boss said, "Young man, just give me one or two taels of silver. I won't take your copper coins."

"You only charge me one or two taels of silver, so you won't make any profit."

Xu Yeyu smiled and continued, "Just take my money normally. How much more money do I need to give you?"

"Thirty cents," said the boss.

Xu Yeyu took out a small bag from his arms, took out the money from the bag and handed it to the boss.

"Boss, I want to ask you something." Xu Yeyu said.

"What's the matter?" asked the boss.

Xu Yeyu put the fruit into the storage ring and asked, "Do you know which store has delicious beef jerky?"

He definitely can't just eat fruits, he also needs to buy some dry food.

"Young man, I know a shop that has delicious beef jerky."

The boss pointed in a direction and continued, "Walk a little further in this direction and you'll see a shop that sells tea. The beef jerky there is delicious. My daughter especially likes it."

Xu Yeyu asked in confusion: "This shop specializes in selling tea, but it also sells beef jerky?"

He had been to many counties and seen many shops specializing in selling tea, but he had never seen one that also sold beef jerky.

"Young man, this should be your first time in Yingchun County. That store is owned by the He family. Any store owned by the He family will sell beef jerky..."

The boss gave a brief explanation.

The He family is a family of immortal cultivators. The young master of the He family is a spiritual chef. He especially liked eating beef jerky when he was a child.

He knew that he did not have a good talent for cultivation, so he specialized in studying cooking and became a spiritual chef.

The young master of the He family wanted all the children in Yingchun County to eat the beef jerky he made, so beef jerky was sold in various stores of the He family.

He also kept the price of beef jerky very low, and a can of beef jerky was only two cents more expensive than buying it elsewhere.

Xu Yeyu nodded. He didn’t expect to meet such a spiritual chef here.

You can't become a spiritual chef just by wanting to. You need to take exams like you do for alchemists.

Only cultivators who have talent in this area can be spiritual chefs. If you add some true Qi and spiritual energy into your cooking, you can be called a spiritual chef.

"Thank you, boss. I'll go buy some beef jerky now." Xu Yeyu said.

"Young man, take care."

Xu Yeyu followed the direction pointed by the boss and came to the store.

This shop has a nice name, Qingchayuan.

Xu Yeyu saw an old man and a young man struggling not far away.

"I don't know you, who are you?" the old man asked.

"I am your grandson, grandpa, why don't you remember me again?" said the young man.

"Let me go, or I'll call for help," said the old man.

Xu Yeyu thought it was a kidnapping case, so he walked up and said, "Stop, let this old man go."

When the young man saw Xu Yeyu, he quickly explained: "Young man, this is really my grandfather. If you don't believe me, you can go ask the people around you."

Xu Yeyu felt more and more suspicious. If this was a kidnapping case, he couldn't believe what the people nearby said.

"There was a piece of paper in my grandfather's pocket with his name written on it, Liu Hai."

"If you still don't believe it, you can take the paper from my grandfather's pocket to confirm it." The young man added.

He let go of the old man's hand.

The old man took out the piece of paper from his pocket, and there were indeed the words "Liu Hai" on it.

"So you really are my grandson."

The old man thought for a moment and continued, "I remember now. You are indeed my grandson."

Xu Yeyu had a question mark over his head. Why was the development of this matter so strange?

If the old man said that the young man secretly put the paper into his pocket when they were pulling just now, Xu Yeyu would go to the government to report the case.

But what the old man said made Xu Yeyu a little confused.

"I'm sorry to have caused the misunderstanding, young man. My grandfather wanted to go to the next county to look for someone, and I was trying to stop him."

"Grandpa is old and has some amnesia. He always forgets me," said the young man.

Xu Yeyu now understood the whole story. If it wasn't a kidnapping case, he would have nothing to do with it.

"Just let me go. I will be back from the next county in a few days." said the old man.

The young man sighed and said, "Grandpa, you forgot again. The person you were going to find in the next town, Xiaomei, was my deceased grandmother."

When the old man heard what he said, he was obviously stunned.

He lowered his head slightly, and sadness appeared on his wrinkled face.

The old man whispered, "It turns out that Xiaomei has passed away."

Xu Yeyu asked the young man about this matter.

Liu Hai is old and has some problems with his memory.

Last year, the young man accompanied his grandfather to the next county and found out that Xiaomei and his grandmother were the same person.

Xiaomei is just my grandma's nickname.

Liu Hai thought his wife was still alive, so he went to the next county to find her because they had met there.

Xu Yeyu watched the two of them leave.

The old man forgot his grandson, but he didn't forget his wife.

Joy and sorrow go hand in hand; separation and reunion are unpredictable.

I hope the old man can meet Xiaomei again in his next life.
