I can gather experience beads

Chapter 131 Ending without a cure

Cao Rui made Hei Yu fly at full speed for three thousand miles in one breath.

Just now it switched to a constant speed of flight, and after flying for another day and night, it landed in a mortal city.

After Cao Rui entered the city, he restrained himself and dressed like a scholar.

He spent a large sum of money to rent a coachman with his own carriage and headed towards Lianhua County.

After a few days, Cao Rui was basically certain that Master Jin Guang had lost his trace.

"One after another."

"Jin Guang, I, Cao Rui, will remember this grudge." Cao Rui spoke slowly in his heart.

At the same time, Lianhua County also arrived.

Cao Rui gave the coachman a gold ingot. These mundane things were of no significance to Cao Rui at this stage.

The coachman's eyes sparkled and he thanked her repeatedly before driving away.

When Cao Rui set foot on the territory of Lianhua County again, he felt mixed emotions.

In the past six years, Lianhua County does not seem to have changed much.

Cao Rui walked on the streets of Lianhua County and soon arrived outside Chen's Restaurant.

It was evening and the store was very busy.

“The facade is well decorated.”

Cao Rui raised his head and looked around Chen's Restaurant, then spoke softly.

The original city restaurant only had two floors and was simply decorated.

The current Chen's Restaurant is six stories high, and each floor is brightly lit, like a shining pearl inlaid in the bustling city.

The building stands tall and majestic, with flying eaves and pointed corners, carved beams and painted buildings.

Its splendor and elegance attract diners from Lianhua County to gather here.

"It seems that Fugui is living a pretty good life."

Cao Rui's spiritual awareness expanded, and the radius of 100 meters was enough to cover the entire restaurant.

Soon, Cao Rui's spiritual consciousness was in a private room in the restaurant, and he barely recognized Chen Fugui who was drinking with someone.

Chen Fugui is not even 30 years old yet, but he has already started to gain weight prematurely and is as fat as a ball.

It seems like I have too many social engagements.

"Fugui, let's talk in the backyard." Cao Rui said in a voice transmission, and his figure flashed and he appeared in the vacant backyard of the restaurant.

Cao Rui found a stone table and sat next to it.

In the box, Chen Fugui shuddered when he heard Cao Rui's message.

"What's wrong, Manager Chen? Keep drinking!" The newly appointed county magistrate of Lianhua County raised his glass and invited him.

"Drink your ass! Grandpa, my good brother is here to see me!" Cao Rui put the wine glass on the table, turned around and left without paying attention to the bureaucrats and wealthy businessmen at the table.

There was a moment of silence at the table. The newly appointed county magistrate, who was more informed, said with some fear: "Brother Chen, could it be that the commander is here?"

For a moment, because of Chen Fugui's words, the atmosphere at the table became a little chilly.

......

Not long after, Chen Fugui came jogging over, panting heavily.

Seeing Cao Rui's familiar figure without any change, Chen Fugui couldn't help but feel a lump in his throat: "You kid, you've been cultivating immortals until you became stupid, and now you finally come back to take a look!"

Cao Rui turned around and looked at Chen Fugui with a faint smile.

Chen Fugui looked at Cao Rui in the evening sunset. As expected, this fellow practiced Taoism and his face seemed to be frozen at the age of twenty and no longer changed.

"You're as fat as a pig. Come here and I'll make you a cup of tea to help you get rid of the fat."

Cao Rui called Chen Fugui over.

"Okay! I'm here, Master Cao!" Chen Fugui came and sat down opposite Cao Rui.

Cao Rui didn't care about Chen Fugui and put the tea leaves he got from Sun Ming into the teapot.

Then condense the water spiritual power and gather the water flow into the teapot.

Then he concentrated the fire spiritual power and used the superb fire control skills he had acquired when refining the elixir to cook the spiritual tea in an instant.

In just a few moments, a pot of spiritual tea was ready, which made Chen Fugui's eyes widen.

Cao Rui poured Chen Fugui a cup of spiritual tea: "Try it!"

Chen Fugui raised his cup and took a sip. The aroma of tea was refreshing. A gentle energy entered his body along with the tea, nourishing his internal organs. His eyes widened immediately: "Comfortable! Even more comfortable than drinking a hundred-year-old ginseng soup!"

A pot of magical tea to start a conversation.

Cao Rui and Chen Fugui started chatting.

Basically, it was Chen Fugui who was narrating continuously, and Cao Rui was listening carefully on the side.

Chen Fugui’s restaurant chain has opened more than ten stores.

Thanks to You Feng, who had a good relationship with the Eagle Guards, no one dared to interfere with Chen Fugui's restaurant business.

A few years ago, Chen Fugui got married and had a son and a daughter.

The business of Cao's martial arts school was neither good nor bad, because Zhao Bing was a man with a strange temper. He looked down on his disciples and would not accept any money they offered. Gradually, the popularity of the school declined.

Cao Rui's parents and family still live in Shijia Village, but Cao Rui has a nephew who is now an apprentice at Chenjia Restaurant.

This nephew is twelve years old. He is the eldest son of Brother Cao Rui and his name is Shitou.

Just like Cao Rui did in the past, Shitou came to Lianhua County with the intention of going out to explore the world, because Cao Rui had already told his family, Chen Fugui, Zhao Bing and others about this.

Therefore, when Shitou arrived in Lianhua County, he went to look for Chen Fugui.

Shitou had no interest in learning martial arts and was focused on doing business.

Chen Fugui gladly appointed him as the restaurant's apprentice accountant and sent the best accountants to teach him.

"How about we meet him?" Chen Fugui asked.

Cao Rui shook his head: "No need, I believe you can teach him well."

In fact, through Chen Fugui's description, Cao Rui had already seen the young man behind the restaurant counter, counting carefully with the account book.

He looks 50% similar to Cao Rui.

"Then don't worry, your nephew is my real nephew! I promise that I will let him be independent in the future!!"

Cao Rui smiled, took out a few bottles of pills and handed them to Chen Fugui.

"These bottles of pills can detoxify, produce essence, and maintain health. Take one pill each month, and I guarantee that your body, which has been poisoned by alcohol and sex, will be restored and you will live a few more years."

"Haha, then I won't be polite, Old Cao!" Chen Fugui accepted the elixir with a smile on his face. He naturally knew how precious the elixir given by the immortal cultivators was. To put it bluntly, even the current emperor might not be qualified to eat the elixir made by the immortal cultivators!

Cao Rui took out three of the most basic level 0 magic weapons.

A bracelet, a ring, and a jade pendant.

They were all made by Cao Rui during his free time in the Equipment Refining Institute.

They just depict a 0th-level magic circle [Gathering Spirits].

It must be said that being able to engrave [Gathering Spirits] on such a small piece of jewelry is also a skill of Cao Rui.

When ordinary people wear it, spiritual energy will gather and it can wake up the eyes and wake up the mind. It can also make children smart and clever, and their appearance will gradually become outstanding due to the nourishment of the extra spiritual energy.

"These three little things are priceless to you mortals and cannot be given to others. The bracelet and jade pendant are for your children. As for the ring, please give it to Shitou for me." Cao Rui said.

Chen Fugui nodded in agreement.

"Okay, it's time for me to go too." Cao Rui stood up and said. It was already completely dark.

"Cao Rui, are you still going to Shijia Village?" Chen Fugui asked hesitantly.

Cao Rui nodded slightly, his spiritual sense having already keenly detected the unusual expression on Chen Fugui's face.

"what happened?"

Chen Fugui took a deep breath and said, "Your old father passed away a few years ago, and your old mother followed suit a few months later. They all died of natural causes. Don't be too sad."
