Zongman: The Glowing Cuisine Conquers the Tongue of God

"Only the underworld has no labor protection laws, otherwise I'd sue you... Do you really treat us soul ferrymen like mere beasts of burden?"

Li Yang looked at Zhao Li with a strange expression and patted his shoulder with relief.

"Brother Li, you really know your own limitations. I don't know about the other soul ferrymen, but you are a complete ox and a horse!"

Who made you break into the underworld in your previous life and kill Meng Po who was guarding the Yellow Springs?

If you don't become a beast of burden in the underworld, it will be unjust!

Zhao Li felt that there was something else in Li Yang's words, and it seemed like he was being sarcastic.

"Hey, what do you mean?"

Li Yang shrugged. "Just figure it out yourself. I suddenly thought of something and I want to discuss it with Ah Cha."

After saying this, he turned around to leave but was grabbed by Zhao Li.

"Damn, don't think I don't know. You must be eager to have sex with her. You almost had a fight just now... Wait a minute, what about that dinner you invited me to?"

Li Yang rolled his eyes.

"Stop slandering me here. I have something serious to discuss with Ah Cha."

"I won't let you go," Zhao Li said as he stood in front of Li Yang in a servile manner.

"Is treating me to a meal not a serious matter?"

"Let's talk about it when we have time!"

"Fuck, I'm free right now!"

Zhao Li put his arm around Li Yang's shoulders and said sincerely:

"Ayang, we've known each other for quite some time. Our relationship is evident to all... Your Four Gods Seafood Eight Treasure Soul-Calming Buns are very important to me! Seriously, they're worth more than gold!"

Li Yang certainly knew why Zhao Li was in a hurry to eat the buns.

"You want to complete your soul, right?"

Zhao Li was so frightened that he subconsciously loosened his arm around Li Yang's shoulders, took two steps back, and stared at Li Yang in disbelief.

"How do you know this? Did Pluto A-Cha tell you?"

After saying that, he looked at Li Yang with longing on his face, eager to know an answer.

Who are you?

Why don’t I have a soul?

Li Yang pondered for a moment and said calmly: "Just think of it as her telling me."

"Fuck, I hate people like you the most. If it's yes, it's yes, and if it's no, it's no. What do you mean by just treat it as yes?"

Zhao Li seemed a bit irritable, but there were so many people here, and with Pluto Ah Cha around, he didn't dare to vent loudly. He could only suppress his voice and roar softly:

"If you still consider me your brother, tell me everything you know about me!"

Li Yang sighed.

"All I can say now is that you once had a soul, but because you once made a big mistake, you offended the underworld too badly."

"So, your soul is constantly reincarnating, while your body must remain in the underworld to atone for your sins. Do you understand?"

After hearing this, Zhao Li remained silent for a long time.

Li Yang thought he was very sad and was about to comfort him, but he found that he suddenly raised his head with an excited look on his face.

"Fuck, Li Yang, tell me the truth, did I really offend the underworld in the past?"

"Of course!"

"Cool! It seems like my buddy must have been very powerful before. He must have caused a huge mess in the underworld, otherwise they wouldn't have retaliated against me so cruelly!"

Zhao Li was overjoyed.

"Hey, it seems like I was rich once. Otherwise, how could some little Karami be treated so respectfully by the underworld?"

Li Yang looked at this guy speechlessly, it turned out that his worries were in vain.

"as long as you are happy."

Zhao Li came closer and whispered, "Then can you tell me what I used to do? Could it be that I was some celestial being..."

Li Yang rolled his eyes again.

"Stop daydreaming. You used to be..."

At the critical moment, Li Yang kept his mouth shut.

Zhao Li's heart was in his throat, he almost knew his origins.

"Fuck, keep talking!"

Li Yang smiled and said, "Are you trying to trick me? Don't waste your time."

"Since you've been in the underworld for thousands of years and still don't know who you are, it only proves that the time has not come yet, so I can't reveal it."

"However, I can tell you that you feel very close to something, and your origin is related to it."

“What do I feel close to?”

Zhao Li frowned and thought hard.

"If I have to choose one thing, I like listening to Buddhist scriptures... does that count?"

Li Yang nodded.

"Of course, this means you have a connection with Buddha."

Zhao Li pointed at himself in disbelief.

"Me? Zhao Li? The most coquettish soul ferryman in the underworld! You said I have a connection with Buddhism?"

"What a joke!"

"Let's not talk about my drinking and eating meat for now. Although I'm not like you, spending all day and night with a bunch of beauties, I've never been short of women."

"How could I possibly be related to Buddhism?"

Li Yang spread his hands and said indifferently: "Believe it or not, it's none of my business."

After saying that, walk away.

Only Zhao Li was left alone, disheveled in the wind.

Zhao Li's mind was in a mess. In recent days, scriptures would vaguely appear in his mind. He had a premonition that as long as he recited these scriptures, he would be able to unleash incredible power.

"Was I really once a monk?"

Zhao Li fell into deep self-doubt.

Woof~

Li Yang was about to look for A Cha when he was stopped by a snow-white lion dog.

This lion dog is very beautiful, with snow-white fur all over its body without a trace of other colors. It looks quite majestic, and with its bright eyes, it really has some of the demeanor of a lion king.

Li Yang knew that this lion dog was extraordinary.

After all, A-Cha just called it "Diting".

This is the spiritual beast of Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva. It can identify all things in the world by listening, and is especially good at listening to people's hearts.

In Journey to the West, Di Ting is able to distinguish the real and fake Monkey King in a rare dream.

The original text records:

If he lies down on the ground, in an instant, he will be able to illuminate the good and evil, and discern the wise and the foolish, among the mountains, rivers, and communities of the four continents, among the blessed places in the caves and paradises, the gnats, scaled insects, hairy insects, winged insects, insects, celestial immortals, earthly immortals, gods, human immortals, and ghostly immortals.

The beast obeyed Ksitigarbha's order and prostrated itself on the ground in the Senluo Courtyard.

After a moment, he raised his head and said to Ksitigarbha: "Although he has a strange name, I cannot reveal it to his face, and I cannot help you capture him."

Dizang said, "What if you tell it to my face?"

Di Ting said, "If we tell it to his face, I'm afraid the demon will become evil and disturb the palace, causing unrest in the underworld."

He then asked, "Why can't you help capture him?"

Di Ting said, "The demon has spiritual powers, just like Sun Wukong. How much magical power can the God of the Underworld have? That's why we can't capture him."

This shows the extraordinary nature of the Di Ting divine beast.

"What's the matter, Venerable Di Ting?" Li Yang asked softly.

The lion dog said nothing, still looking at Li Yang curiously, but its little tail was wagging happily behind it.

"Are you hungry?"

Li Yang looked around.

It is not an exaggeration to say that Hueco Mundo is a "poor and barren place" because there is really nothing to eat.

A good cook cannot cook without rice, and Li Yang had no choice.

"By the way, I wonder if you can eat the light of cooking. Do you want to try it?"

Di Ting tilted his head and looked at Li Yang with curiosity.

"Okay, let's try it."

Li Yang remained calm and integrated his essence, energy and spirit into one, entering the state of "forgetting both himself and the world" again.

Breath of the Sun!

The golden markings are turned on.

The blazing golden flames instantly burned fiercely.

at this time.

Li Yang uses himself as the cooker, his qi and blood as the flame, and his spirit as the food.

He wants to cook fantasy golden fried rice!

A faint fragrance appeared out of nowhere all around.

As the only diner, Di Ting looked a little dazed. He found that there seemed to be a fragrant fried rice in front of him!

Although I knew it was an illusion, I felt a great sense of satisfaction deep down in my heart.

The golden fried rice gave off a strong aroma that constantly stimulated his taste buds, and his heart, which had been calm for many years, was slightly disturbed for the first time.

Li Yang placed a ball of golden light in front of Di Ting.

"Please enjoy the Fantasy Golden Fried Rice!"

The little tail behind Di Ting was shaking like a helicopter propeller.

It swallowed the golden light in one gulp, a look of joy on its face...

Suddenly.

The lion dog revealed its true form.

This mythical beast has a tiger head, a single horn, dog ears, a dragon body, a lion tail, and unicorn feet. It looks like a dragon but not a dragon, a tiger but not a tiger, a lion but not a lion, a unicorn but not a unicorn, and a dog but not a dog.

However, as soon as it appeared, it was instantly enveloped by a ray of Buddha's light and disappeared in an instant.

Li Yang only heard a gentle sigh in his ear:

"You greedy bastard, you actually stopped someone to ask for food, aren't you ashamed?"

"My apologies, Li Yang. This little guy has heard of the fame of your glowing food for a long time, so he sneaked out to ask for food when I wasn't paying attention..."

"As an apology, I give you this little item. Please accept it."

A lamp appeared in front of Li Yang. It was the kind of oil lamp used in ancient times. It was made entirely of colored glaze. It was colorful and looked very beautiful.

"Could this be the Lingshan Glazed Lamp?"

Li Yang muttered.

In Journey to the West.

The yellow-haired sable rat stole the clear oil from the Lingshan glass cup and became a demon.

He transformed himself into the Yellow Wind Monster, and his breath of yellow wind brought unrest to the three realms.
