The Guardians: The Swordsman of the Moon

Mo Xian cooking 2

After the bath, Mo Xian immediately prepared for dinner, his ginseng chicken soup still warmed up on the small fire as Mo Xian walked into the kitchen.

Zhang Rouruan raised his soup pot and put it on the tray for easier when brought to the dining table.

Their dining table was in the courtyard, Bao Yu said he liked to eat outside while enjoying the atmosphere and feeling the fresh air.

Wu Jiao Xing and the others were already sitting around the dining table when Mo Xian and Zhang Rouruan came carrying the last two dishes.

Putting the pot of ginseng chicken soup in the middle of the table, Zhang Rouruan joined the sit down with Mo Xian who placed the dragon whiskers sweets as dessert.

At least Mo Xian cooked six dishes, ranging from egg rolls, boiled pokcoi doused with chili sauce and garlic, chopped chicken sauteed and sprinkled with chili powder, mapo tofu, and, the ginseng chicken soup and the dragon whiskers sweets he made wholeheartedly.

"I didn't think you'd be very good at cooking." Bai Ruo praised as they started eating after a disciple from Bai Lian's sect sent a message that Bao Yu would come home late and asked them not to wait for her for dinner.

Wu Jiao Xing noticed how Mo Xian's smile was so wide, knocking on his chopsticks he started to grab the rice and stuff it into his mouth.

"Mm, it's so good, if I knew you could cook I wouldn't have cooked on my own before."

Zhang Rouruan came to praise as he swallowed his soup.

Bai Ruo hissed.

"You're the one who said men aren't talented in the kitchen."

Zhang Rouruan pursed his lips. "That's because I've seen a lot of men messing around in the kitchen. Not only did they make the food salty and have a strange taste, they often even ignored what they put into the pan."

"Tsk! It just came from your family!"

Zhang Rouruan was getting annoyed. "What are you saying! Your whole family is not good at cooking!"

"Please don't fight while eating." Mo Xian tried to mediate, while Bai Yue and Wu Jiao Xing seemed to be unconcerned and only concerned about their stomachs. They eat very quietly.

"Rouruan, from tomorrow I'll help you cook in the kitchen."

Zhang Rouruan smiled happily. "Really, that's good. That means there will be more dishes for the teacher."

Mo Xian nodded.

Bai Ruo also nodded. "Yes, that's good. At least we'll have a different flavor."

"What do you mean?" Zhang Rouruan asked dislike.

Bai Ruo was about to respond, but Bai Yue immediately held onto his hand and called out his name once, that was enough to make Bai Ruo shut up and continue their dinner.

At the dining table, they chatted about many things including their mission duties. Bai Ruo complained because the child he was guarding was very annoying and caused a lot of trouble for him and Bai Yue. Not only did he pick up people's merchandise without paying he also picked up what he liked along the way.

"This little Young Master is like a very annoying rice cake, he thinks everything his eyes see is his."

Bai Ruo complained. "Even his parents did not leave a single piece of gold in case. My brother and I had to take money out of our personal pockets for all the losses the boy had done, but after everything was done, we're even still receiving complaints because the boy was crying and didn't receive any change."

"Yes, life is so hard."

Wu Jiao xing chuckled. "It's only just encountered such a problem and you've been complaining as if your burden is as big as a mountain."

Bai Ruo who heard him became annoyed, but she sat down next to Bai Yue and she could not hit Wu Jiao Xing's annoying face right now or her brother would get angry.

—————————————

Two days passed since Mo Xian cooked and from then on Mo Xian and Zhang Rouruan cooked together in the kitchen. Bao Yu praised her cooking skills, Wu Jiao Xing urged Mo Xian to tell her where she learned cooking from because in Wu Jiao Xing's eyes, Mo Xian had never learned cooking before. As an excuse, Mo Xian said that he learned to cook from Mo Shan, back then Wu Jiao Xing still looked suspicious but did not force any more.

The evil spirit that Mo Xian had sealed had also been taken care of by Bao Yu, it had been at least five days that Bao Yu had tried to seek information from that evil spirit, but the spirit did not want to answer even when Bao Yu had resorted to violent means by torturing him, the spirit remained in its stance and did not want to answer.

The spell, in the end still left a mystery after giving Mo Xian a hint of hope. Mo Xian only hoped, Li Huan and Li Zhouran were luckier than him and immediately settled the matter.

Turning to the practice, Bao Yu gave them some time off from the strenuous exercise and did not allow them to enter into secluded cultivation for a few days. So they use their time according to what they want.

Previously, Mo Xian had asked Bao Yu for permission and the teacher had given him permission, even Bai Yue and Zhang Rouruan wanted to come along but were not given permission because Ghost Town was not a city that could be entered at their will. There is an unusual rule over the city, if you do not have any important and great acquaintances there, then do not expect to enter or the creatures that inhabit the city of Ghosts will eat you alive. Although, Mo Xian had known Madam Hu, but Bao Yu still could not guarantee that all of his disciples would return to his side if he gave them permission. So he only allowed Mo Xian and Wu Jiao Xing to leave.

"What do you want to do after you meet him?" Wu Jiao Xing asked as the two began to enter the forest.

"Madam Hu said he would help find out about the spell paper, I think I need to ask, who knows maybe Lady Hu has already found something."

The two then walked inside the Ghost City when the portal opened. The atmosphere instantly changed from desolate to a hustle and bustle of ghosts and demonic beasts roaming the place doing their activities.

Mo Xian even still saw the salted egg seller's duck still selling on the street corner and the bab* man selling mud-covered tanghulu. The two are still arguing.

"You fucking duck, you're again making trouble with our secret. I say! We both make a living on why you're looking for trouble!"

"Grandfather, I don't care! You sell counterfeit goods and deceive buyers, what you do is a crime, kwek! And seeing you suffer from being beaten up is entertainment! Week! Week! Week!"

The duck laughed, the bab*man became angry and strangled the duck's neck. The duck thrashed for help and people began to gather. Two security officers immediately broke up the fight with their iron rods.

"What are you two doing, fighting in Ghost town is strictly forbidden!"

The elongated duck's neck wanted to peck at the head of the chapter* but was held back by the officer holding it. Upsetly the duck spewed out the words, "Bab* it's looking for trouble with me, quack! I said he tricked the buyer with a muddy rotten tanghulu from the bab* cage and he strangled me! Week! I am innocent! Week! I'm not guilty!"

Bab* who heard getting angrier, he was being held back by the guards, he wanted to grunt with his fat feet but not up because it was too short.

"That son of a bitch is a troublemaker, even all the merchants here hate him! He himself sold rotten eggs but defiled other people's merchandise!"

"I don't sell rotten eggs, kwek! It was a magic egg! Week! It was passed down from my great ancestor!"

Mo Xian let out a dry laugh upon seeing the quarrel and immediately dragged Wu Jiao Xing to leave the place, it seemed like their quarrel was still long.

Meanwhile Wu Jiao Xing stared in disdain at what the demonic beasts and ghosts were selling. Not only were the rotten fruits covered in illusions, he also found a chicken demon beast selling spicy chicken legs by the roadside. Cooking with passion, fire is lit, hot skillet does not stop cooking, serve the buyer. They even cook their own kind for the sake of making money.

Even Wu Jiao Xing could not shake his head in shock.

On the other hand Mo Xian also saw a demon star talking to a ghost.

"My tubes will soon be enough, as soon as I collect two million, two hundred, twenty-two more pieces of gold and I can buy a good item to make new leather."

"Yes, it still takes a lot of time."

"No, it wouldn't have felt if you hadn't counted it."

"But you count them all the time, even today you count them sixteen times. Go and find customers to get your coins to grow."

Ghost City, it was no different from an ordinary city in the human world. The people here also look so alive with their respective busyness.

Mo Xian walked up to the World Beauty House.

The moment the two reached the place, the fragrance of fragrances and makeup immediately smelled clearly. The new Wu Jiao Xing first came and saw how the people in the place were dressed immediately had dark faces and pulled the hand of Mo Xian who was about to walk in.

"What are you doing?" wu Jiao Xing asked.

Mo Xian looked in wonder.

"Why did you get into a place like this? If the ladies and gentlemen find out, they'll be disappointed in you."

Mo Xian laughed lightly, leaving Wu Jiao Xing confused.

"What did Gege think?" asked Mo Xian.

Wu Jiao Xing stuttered before his words were swallowed back into his mouth.

"Madam Hu said if I wanted to see him I had to go to this place."
