Chapter 3: The Prodigal Sister Xun'er
"Ugh... my head hurts..."
Gu Fengchen opened his eyes.
He gently patted his dizzy head with his hand and let out a few long breaths.
He took out a mirror and looked at himself. His handsome appearance was still handsome...well, he also had a kind, beautiful and pure soul.
Well, a kind, beautiful, pure and interesting soul that is one in a million.
The long hair covered the slightly sharp eyebrows, and the dark eyes half covered by the hair showed the depth brought by two lifetimes of experience.
After Gu Fengchen boasted about himself for a while, he looked inside his body and confirmed that there was nothing special. Only then did he breathe a sigh of relief.
However, the feeling of sudden fainting still made Gu Fengchen feel a little scared.
"Is it because absorbing the Taotie Seal requires consumption of mental energy?"
This is just Gu Fengchen's guess, but it is very likely.
Gu Fengchen slowly exhaled a breath, half leaning on the bed, thinking about his next plan.
First of all, he also planned to look for strange fire. The Seal of Taotie should be able to devour strange fire. The Azure Lotus Earth Core Fire is in the Tagor Desert, the Fallen Heart Flame is in Canaan Academy, and many kinds of strange fire don’t even have their locations clearly marked.
Then there are some top-grade elixirs and rare treasures, and these depend on luck.
The biggest advantage of this Taotie Seal is that it can directly devour medicinal herbs.
Medicinal herbs cannot be eaten directly. Most people who get medicinal herbs will go to the Alchemist Guild to sell them, or ask an alchemist to help make them.
If you take medicinal herbs alone, unless they are of the level of rare treasures, if you consume them directly, you will not be able to bring out the medicinal power in them. Instead, the medicinal power will be lost in vain, and the improvement to your own strength will be minimal.
So this is why alchemists are so popular in this continent.
Alchemists can extract liquid medicines from many medicinal materials and refine them into pills, which is equivalent to secondary processing of the raw materials.
Therefore, if Gu Fengchen finds any rare treasures, he can give them directly to the Taotie Seal for its use.
As for chance, apart from the Little Medical Fairy, the meeting of Yun Yun and Xiao Yan was actually a coincidence. Should I go to the Warcraft Mountain Range to help Yun Yun establish a good relationship?
You know, the reason why Xiao Yan was able to get close to Yun Yun in the original novel was because he saved Yun Yun's life in the Warcraft Mountains.
But unfortunately, they didn't have a happy ending in the end.
In addition to Yun Yun, there is also Nalan Yanran.
What's wrong with Nalan Yanran breaking off the engagement? Why can't other people make their own decisions in their marriages? They are free to love, do you understand?
It's like that every day I'm in the same situation for thirty years, and I've been in Henan for thirty years and in Hebei for thirty years!
If this happened in Gu Fengchen's era, there would be nothing wrong with Nalan Yanran breaking off the engagement.
Even if you, Xiao Yan, are unhappy, Nalan Yanran doesn't owe you anything!
The more Gu Fengchen thought about it, the angrier he became.
There are also Yafei, Zi Yan, the two sisters Han Xue and Han Yue, and damn, that scumbag Xiao Yan.
I bother!
You said you don't want to take responsibility, so why are you flirting with girls?
Do you know that these beauties died alone for you, you damn scumbag!!!
Xiao Yan, you shameless fellow, I have tolerated you for a long time.
Especially what he did to Gu Xun'er was simply a disgrace to his identity as a time traveler.
If he came, he would never use such dirty means as Xiao Yan. It would be too embarrassing!
He wants to conquer a woman's heart in a fair and honest way.
Gu Fengchen felt that since he had come to this world, he could not let Xiao Yan harm these innocent women.
But then again, Gu Fengchen would naturally not let women disturb his spiritual mind, but these women all have opportunities of their own, and he can indeed take advantage of them.
By the way, there’s also that old guy Xiao Yan’s Xuan Zhong ruler. I wonder if it can satisfy the appetite of Taotie Seal!
But there is no need to plan so much now, just take it one step at a time.
Soon, Gu Fengchen saw that the Taotie Seal on his left hand had dimmed.
He couldn't help but mutter, is this considered being full?
It seems that the Seal of Taotie cannot eat endlessly. It will enter a period of hibernation after each meal.
Gu Fengchen sat up and had another idea in his mind. If he broke through to the Dou Di level, could he return to his original world?
The Immortal Emperor is reborn and roams freely in the city. Isn’t that more exciting than this?
I just want to live a boring life with many wives and concubines.
Thinking of this, Gu Fengchen thought of all kinds of stallion stories and couldn't help but smile.
"Brother Gu Fengchen..."
A girl's voice came from outside.
Gu Fengchen was about to agree, but the person calling out from outside seemed to be unable to wait any longer and pushed open the door and walked in directly.
She was a young girl, not very old, about six years old, with eyes as bright as ink, a delicate nose and a small mouth. She was still young, not mature or charming enough, but extremely pretty.
Although she is not very old, her cool and indifferent temperament cannot be hidden.
Just like a lotus just blooming, when she grows up, she will surely become a beauty admired by countless people.
The girl always appears to be plain and simple, but every time she meets Brother Gu Fengchen, she takes off her disguise.
Gu Fengchen is exactly five years older than Gu Xun'er and is eleven years old this year.
Gu Xun'er pouted her lips and said dissatisfiedly: "Brother Gu Fengchen, I called you for a long time, why didn't you answer me?"
You called me for a long time? You just called my name and pushed the door open. Is this my problem?
However, facing such a cute little Lolita, Gu Fengchen did not feel the slightest bit of dissatisfaction. He smiled and said, "It turns out to be Xun'er. What's the matter?"
According to the time, when Gu Xun'er was born, Gu Fengchen had already settled down in the Gu clan.
So, Gu Fengchen almost watched Gu Xun'er grow up, and Gu Xun'er also loved to play with Gu Fengchen on weekdays.
Gu Xun'er is the little princess of the Gu clan, the daughter of Gu Yuan, and the future god-level bloodline. Her Doudi bloodline is extremely strong. Therefore, Gu Fengchen does not reject her. In addition, the other party is a child, so Gu Fengchen thinks she is quite cute.
As for why Gu Xun'er likes to find Gu Fengchen, it is not for any other reason, but because Gu Fengchen is a delicious cook.
Not only is Gu Fengchen a time traveler, the original owner's craftsmanship is also pretty good.
The most profound impression on Gu Fengchen was the time a month ago when his soul had just entered this body.
At that time, he made a steak for Gu Xun'er, and after she ate it, she couldn't help but burst into tears.
That's right, tears were flowing.
The gravy and pepper mixed together and melted in her mouth. The strong spicy aroma mixed with a hint of sweetness repeatedly hit her taste buds and still filled her mouth even after she swallowed it.
Well, actually the most important point is pepper!
Regardless of the country or era, the pursuit of food is eternal.
Even when we come to the Douqi Continent, this is still the same.
When it comes to food, spices cannot be avoided.
Especially in the Fighting Continent, everyone eats pills like candy beans every day. The pills themselves have no taste, and in terms of food, the cooking methods are even more monotonous. If you want to get a good taste, you have to rely on spices to enhance the flavor.
In fact, when eating, Gu Fengchen discovered that there is a spice called pepper here, but no one likes to put it.
But Gu Fengchen was different. He naturally knew how to make the most delicious combination, and Gu Xun'er was captured by him as expected.
In addition to delicious food, Gu Fengchen also pioneered afternoon tea.
There is naturally no custom of afternoon tea in this world, but he, Yuan Ting, does. The productivity of this world is so poor that people hardly have the leisure to taste exquisite food.
So, Gu Fengchen created the tradition of afternoon tea, and Gu Xun'er's little mouth was completely healed by Gu Fengchen.
After intercepting Gu Xun'er, Gu Fengchen has been thinking about another thing. Gu Xun'er was actually Xiao Yan's talisman in the early stage. Without Gu Xun'er, Xiao Yan would probably suffer a lot in the early stage.
"What is this?" Gu Xun'er was pouting, but when she saw the plates of colorful fruits on Gu Fengchen's table, her eyes suddenly lit up.
It was a scent she had never smelled before.
"Red banana fruit, very delicious."
This is a wild fruit that Gu Fengchen found in the mountains and processed it slightly.
Gu Xun'er had 100% trust in Gu Fengchen. She took the red banana fruit without hesitation. The moment she bit into the flesh, the sweet and juicy taste, coupled with the dense flavor like winter dates, made Gu Xun'er's eyes widen.
She couldn't believe that she was already five years old and had never tasted such a delicacy!
"By the way, Xun'er, are you going to the Xiao family?" Gu Fengchen felt that the time was about right, and suddenly changed the subject and asked softly.
When it comes to this, a hint of sadness suddenly flashes across Gu Xun'er's little face.
Children are not good at hiding their emotions, so in just a moment, the latter's loss appeared in front of Gu Fengchen without any concealment.
In order to get the ancient jade, the family sent her to the Xiao family in Wutan City.
In order to obtain the secret of becoming a Dou Emperor, Gu Yuan has coveted the ancient jade of the Xiao family for a long time. However, he asked Xun'er to go to the Xiao family not just for the ancient jade. After all, there are eight ancient jades in total, and even if he gets one, it may not solve any problems. He also wants Gu Xun'er to have a happy and stable childhood.
Gu Xun'er looked at Gu Fengchen's face, threw herself into his arms, and burst into tears, "I want to stay with Brother Gu Fengchen forever, but my father wants me to go to the Xiao family and grow up there. I may never see you again in the future."
Xun'er's face was tearful and her voice was tearful.
Gu Fengchen rubbed Xun'er's little head and said with a smile: "It's okay. When you go to the Xiao family, I can go out and gain some experience. I'm eleven years old now, so I can go out and explore the world."
In fact, Gu Fengchen has always wanted to go down there to gain some experience. After all, he has been staying in the Gu Clan. It doesn’t matter that he is weak now, but once his level is raised, the secret of his Taotie Seal may be discovered by those old monsters in the Gu Clan.
He was originally picked up by Gu Yuan, so there's no guarantee that he might have been sliced into pieces for research.
Therefore, Gu Fengchen decided to stay away from this mysterious family for the time being.
Anyway, the materials in the ring were free, and the Blood Bodhisattva Pill was also free, so it was really worth it.
However, if there is a chance, I will see if I can give some delicious food for free to the Seal of Taotie before leaving the ancient clan.
Although there are no heaven-defying bloodlines such as Pangu's bloodline, Nuwa's bloodline, and Fuxi's bloodline in this world, the Seal of Taotie should be very happy if it could obtain some bloodlines from the Taixu Ancient Dragon Clan or the Tianyao Phoenix Clan.
"Taixu Ancient Dragon Clan"
Gu Fengchen had searched through the memory fragments and found that there seemed to be a weapon containing the blood of the Taixu Ancient Dragon on Gu Xun'er. It was called the Ancient Dragon Flute, and it was made from a finger bone of the Taixu Ancient Dragon and nurtured by its blood.
It is said that Gu Xun'er obtained this weapon by chance, and because she was afraid that using this weapon would provoke revenge from the Taixu Ancient Dragon clan, Gu Xun'er seemed to have never shown it to the outside world.
Can you trick this thing into coming over?
This matter cannot be rushed, it needs to be done slowly and steadily.
After hearing what Gu Fengchen said, Gu Xun'er stopped crying immediately. She raised her little face and asked, "Brother Gu Fengchen, are you, are you going to leave Gujie too? Do you want to go to the Xiao family with me?"
