I am a living immortal.

Chapter 384 Gaogou County

Yun Yue could tell that Lin Yuan was a chatterbox, a personality that came from within. Yun Yue was actually a similar personality, but had become more reserved since cultivating immortality. Now, meeting Lin Yuan, who shared the same personality, he felt a sense of familiarity.

This feeling made him relax all of a sudden.

"Your master is really good. My master has always been very hands-off with us. If it weren't for the reliable eldest and second brothers, I think our sect would be in a mess. If our master came back and saw this, he probably wouldn't come back." Yun Yue had a look of melancholy on his face. It was really true that comparison was the thief of anger. This was the same master, but in Lin Yuan's mouth and Yun Yue's mouth, he was completely different.

"what?"

Lin Yuan was a bit surprised, but soon he was relieved. He also felt very lucky to have met the old goat, and then the master and the teacher. If he hadn't let the old goat accompany him in his adventures, he probably wouldn't be the carefree Lin Yuan now.

His master had nothing to say about him. He had taken him to the great rivers and streams of the Yan Dynasty, through the mountains and deep pools, and even to the source of the northern sky. Although he told Lin Yuan that he had begged for it himself, he knew that it was specially prepared by his master for him. In addition to this little bit of ink, there was also a small world in the painting, which could be carried and run when necessary. He could also ask for help here. When the time comes, hehe, Shen Qiu is very strong now.

Also, although Shen Qiu does not have as many friends all over the world as Su Mu, Su Mu is not the only good friend of Shen Qiu.

But protecting one's shortcomings is a common practice.

If all these methods failed, Shen Qiu also gave Lin Yuan a dozen pieces of letter paper. If there was really no other way, then he could write to Su Mu. There should be no place in the world that Su Mu couldn't go.

Shen Qiu also knew that Su Mu's nuclear-powered letter paper was extraordinary and could even be delivered into the cave in the painting without any obstacles.

That's why I feel at ease letting him go out and gain experience.

Yun Yue didn't say that he was envious, but he also felt that Lin Yuan was different from those who changed their careers lately in Fuyun Temple. He must be from the famous Lingfu Immortal Sect.

Of course this is a bit of a misunderstanding.

The hazy scene around them kept changing, and in the blink of an eye they had arrived at the nearest town, Gaogou County.

This town, just as the old man had said, wasn't wealthy, and even a bit run-down. The tone was just as he'd seen it when he arrived: gray. The sun was obscured by rolling sand and thick clouds. The town was gray, the houses were gray, and even the clothes of the people walking along the street were predominantly dark.

So when Yun Yue entered the town, he inevitably became the center of attention. In this gray world, his cyan robe was too conspicuous, and the soft silk texture contrasted sharply with the coarse linen. Lin Yuan, on the other hand, was wearing a black suit. While the material was equally fine and the pattern on it was subtle, it was not noticeable without close inspection. Especially when standing next to Yun Yue, he was even less noticeable.

Yun Yue didn't care about it.

"Have you been here before?" he asked, looking at Lin Yuan.

Lin Yuan also looked around curiously, and shook his head after hearing this: "I wasn't in this county before. The county I was in was a little further away from the border, so the environment was much better."

"Let's find a restaurant and have a meal while chatting."

After some inquiries, the two found the best restaurant in the county. As soon as they walked in, a waiter came forward. As they walked into the restaurant, pairs of eyes looked over, then turned away, still too conspicuous.

The waiter in front of the shop said, "We have basically everything you would like to eat, sir."

"Both? Are there any fish?"

Lin Yuan listened and laughed.

The waiter heard the other party's teasing, but he didn't mean it maliciously, so he replied, "Of course we have it. If you want tiger whip or bear paw, we may not have it. But although fish is rare in Gaogou, it's not unavailable. It's just expensive. Do you want some?"

“What fish?”

"River fish, there's a tributary of the Fanlong River about two or three miles away. The shopkeepers usually buy a few and keep them. They can sell them all in three or four days. I happen to have some left. Would you like some, sir?"

In fact, it is just an ordinary fish, but due to geographical reasons, the fish is sold at a much higher price, and basically few people patronize it. Only their shop owner has the courage to dare to transport the fish back from such a long place, which requires a lot of manpower and material resources.

Lin Yuan was also a little surprised, but he didn't care anymore after saying it out loud: "Then come on."

"Okay!" the waiter laughed.

"Are you looking for anything else? Gaogou County is famous for its mushrooms. These delicious mushrooms, grown in the wilderness, can be stewed with chicken or stir-fried. They're both tender, smooth, and delicious."

"And the wine, Qingsui wine, is also excellent."

"Qingsui?" Lin Yuan said with a smile. In such a small county with a shortage of food, this wine is actually a specialty, and it is called Qingsui.

The waiter seemed accustomed to this question and explained, "The green ears don't refer to wheat ears, but to highland barley. Combined with the fermented barley, the wine has a unique flavor. It's considered a strong liquor, but it has a unique aroma."

"Then give it a try." Lin Yuan had tasted at least ten thousand bottles of wine. He wasn't a heavy drinker, but he loved it. Following Shen Qiu's drinking bug, Lin Yuan had been tasting wine since he was seventeen or eighteen. Whenever he went to a place, he'd first taste the wine there, each with its own merits and flavors.

This is also the reason why the first thing he said when he met Yun Yue was drinking.

The waiter was still shrewdly promoting the dishes. It was obvious that these two men were not short of money, but he was not blindly promoting them. He had no delicacies from land and sea, but only those that these wealthy families had never tasted or drunk, as well as special dishes.

Lin Yuan didn't care. They weren't there to eat, but just to chat. Eating and drinking together could help them get closer. After all, the two of them hit it off right away.

When the two finished ordering, the waiter quietly said to them, "If you don't have any urgent matters, you can stay here first, or leave quickly after finishing your meal."

Yun Yue and Lin Yuan were a bit surprised, but it wasn't that they were being targeted. Yun Yue's outfit clearly told everyone, "I'm a fat sheep, come and eat me!" Furthermore, many of those previous glances were filled with malicious intent.

Those who order a few plates of peanuts and a pot of wine and sit in the restaurant all day, constantly observing the diners coming in and out, hoping to pick out the fattest ones.

Today, they had set their sights on Lin Yuan and his men. Originally, they hadn't wanted to choose these two, but they weren't fools. The fact that these two dared to act so brazenly and fearlessly showed their strength and confidence.

But because the two of them were so generous.

The waiter mentioned a dish, and they ordered it without any care. The benefits were so tempting that they could get it even if it was dangerous. Besides, they could still use dirty tricks; there was always a way.

The two were surprised by the waiter's reminder. This shouldn't have been his business, but he still reminded them. And from what he said, there was nothing to worry about in the restaurant.
