Very reasonable cultivation

Chapter 54: Night Market 1: Barbecue

Night fell quietly, and the inky black sky enveloped the earth. Tian Zhen sat quietly on the edge of the cliff, enjoying the cool breeze for an entire afternoon. He stared intently ahead, silently hoping that Da Zhuang would appear as soon as possible. However, time passed, and there was still no sign of Da Zhuang appearing.

Tian Zhen knew it was probably unwise to disturb him at this moment. Da Zhuang was probably concentrating on his cultivation and needed some time and space alone to complete his work. Thinking of this, Tian Zhen sighed helplessly. It seemed that this time he would have to go to the market alone.

Moonlight streamed down the ground like water, illuminating Tian Zhen's somewhat lonely figure. He slowly turned around, retrieved his Flying Donkey motorcycle from his universal storage device, and plopped down on it. With the hum of his "warp engine," he soared into the sky. Along the way, the night breeze gently brushed his cheeks, bringing a slight chill, but Tian Zhen paid no attention to it. His mind was completely immersed in the upcoming trip to the market.

Although he was walking alone, Tian Zhen did not feel scared or lonely. After all, he had lived two lives. Although he had not been out for a long time, he was a little uncomfortable.

His heart was filled with anticipation and curiosity about the unknown journey. No matter it was smooth or tortuous, he had to go. After all, he would buy him some clothes first. The more outrageous thing was that he had only been wearing this piece of clothes since he came to the sect.

Just like that, Tian Zhen walked further and further away with anticipation, disappearing into the night...

The moon is bright and clear, and the sky is dotted with a veil.

Seen from the night sky, the entire market resembles a long golden dragon, ablaze with lights and bustling with activity. From afar, the bright lanterns dot the streets like stars, illuminating the otherwise dim night like daylight.

Tian Zhen, driving a flying donkey, slowly landed at a market that he didn't know whether it was the beginning or the end. He planned to visit the market from beginning to end within these seven days.

Entering the market, a bustling cacophony of sounds fills the air: the enthusiastic shouts of vendors, the haggling of customers, and the cheerful laughter of children, interweaving into a unique symphony. The air is filled with the aroma of a plethora of delicacies, making your mouth water. Grilled meat skewers sizzle over the charcoal fire, emitting an alluring aroma; sweet and savory pastries line the shelves, attracting everyone's attention; and steaming pots of delicious dumplings and wontons simmer, beckoning you to try them.

This place doesn't have any fairy air at all, it's clearly the kind of food street from my previous life!

He sniffed the food, and even though he hadn't eaten for a long time, his appetite was aroused.

Following the alluring aroma, Tian Zhen arrived at a barbecue stall. Business was good, and there were quite a few people. The barbecue rack was made entirely of copper and iron, like a long student table, with the meat floating on top. There was no grill, and no charcoal underneath, just a red-hot copper block. The grilling was done with great skill, and not a drop of oil dripped from the meat, nor was there any smoke at all!

The crowd lined up and moved slowly forward, and finally it was his turn.

"Boss! What kind of meat are these?" It can be seen that the "boss" of the barbecue is a cultivator at the fifth level of Qi Refining. They wear the same sect clothes and are considered to be fellow disciples, but out of habit, he called out the name used for businessmen in his previous life. As for asking what kind of meat it is, he hasn't eaten meat for a long time and can hardly tell the types of raw meat. What if it is the meat of some strange creature?

The senior brother who was grilling the meat didn't seem to realize who the boss was addressing. But when someone asked what kind of meat it was, he instinctively replied, "Only pork and mutton. One pound of pork and mutton, fifty pounds of forged spirit iron. It tastes absolutely delicious. It's a craft passed down from generation to generation. I'm going to earn some resources. Please support me."

"It's calculated by kilogram, what a good deal! Give me ten kilograms each," Tian Zhen said in surprise.

"Alright!" the boss brother responded crisply, deftly pulling out a few chunks of meat from his storage bag. He expertly used the object control technique to skewer the cuts, suspending them above the glowing copper. He was dazzled by the sheer volume of meat, which he saw in several layers, each containing a copper coin.

Sizzle~, although there is no smoke, the rich aroma of meat can be clearly smelled, the oil jumps on the meat, and the skewers of grilled meat roll automatically, but there is no sign of the meat jumping out, which shows how proficient this senior brother is in the art of controlling objects.

"Senior brother, what did you do before?" Tian Zhen asked in a familiar manner.

The senior brother turned around and looked at Tian Zhen with a confused look, as if saying, "Can't you see?"

"Aha! Senior brother, where did all this meat come from?" Tian Zhen laughed and asked again to find a topic to talk about.

"Hey, it's a trade secret." He looked mysterious, but then he changed the subject: "It'll cost more!"

"Forget it, I don't plan to develop in the business field." Tian Zhen said with a look of rejection.

"That's a pity." The senior brother looked regretful.

It didn't take long before the barbecue was ready with the secret spices evenly sprinkled into it.

The universal storage device floated in front of him, and Tian Zhen happily stuffed handfuls of storage space into it.

After paying the bill, I picked up a few skewers, took a gulp, and finished a large piece. Mmm! Fragrant! The original flavor of the meat was accompanied by the right amount of saltiness and spiciness. Not bad, not bad. Although it's not as delicious as the barbecue in my previous life, it has its own unique flavor. I don't know what plant this secret spice is from, it doesn't taste like the pepper.

After a few bites, he quickly finished the barbecue in his hand, burned the wooden sticks into ashes and threw them into the field, then Tian Zhen continued strolling.

I continued walking, buying whatever I saw to try. As the food stalls dwindled, the market became filled with a dazzling array of goods. There were exquisite handicrafts, gorgeous clothing, a wide variety of toys... The selection was truly dazzling. The stall owners went all out to showcase their wares, hoping to attract more customers.

Hey! Just then, Tian Zhen's eyes were suddenly drawn to a uniquely decorated shop on the side of the road. As he approached, he saw it was a shop specializing in all kinds of clothing. He couldn't help but think, "I think it's time to change these old clothes I've been wearing for so long, now that they've been a little charred from the electricity!" Without hesitation, Tian Zhen stepped into the attractive shop.

Upon entering the house, every sight is filled with period-inspired clothing, each exuding a unique and captivating charm. These garments incorporate traditional design elements, featuring long sleeves, long skirts, and trousers, creating a classic elegance and solemnity. Each piece seems to carry the weight of history, evoking a distant era.

However, it's not just the style that's truly stunning; it's the exquisite fabric itself. Its delicate texture is silky smooth, shimmering with a subtle sheen. The exquisite embroidery is a work of art, vividly depicting a variety of patterns and designs. Whether it's flowers, birds, fish, insects, or auspicious beasts, each one is embroidered with such vividness that it seems ready to leap from the fabric at any moment.

These garments are meticulously stacked, neatly arranged, like a well-trained army. They complement each other, forming a beautiful canvas that offers a visual feast. Standing here, one feels as if transported to a dreamlike world, permeated by a rich cultural atmosphere that leaves one completely captivated.
