Jiang Feng controlled the temperature of "White Wave," roasting layer by layer. Soon, golden oil dripped down, pattering like a sudden rain, blossoming into beautiful flowers on the ground.

Whoosh!

At that moment, "White Wave" suddenly surged, flames like a sea, completely enveloping the roast pig.

The skin of the roast pig slowly cracked, forming dense fine lines, and waves of enticing aroma wafted out from the cracks.

"Spirit Fire Roast Pig, complete!"

Jiang Feng retracted "White Wave," and the roast pig slowly descended, landing in the grass, adding a touch of elegance that made the Spirit Fire Roast Pig nearly perfect.

By this time, Tai, Bao Dalong, and Yao Yaoling were all stunned. They never imagined that a barbecue could be done this way. This Spirit Fire was indeed incredibly useful.

"Tai, don't just stand there, give it a try," Jiang Feng said.

Gulp! Tai swallowed a mouthful of saliva, stepped forward, tore off a piece of the crispy golden meat, and stuffed it into his mouth, chewing gently.

"Ah!" Tai's expression froze, his eyes wide open, "It's so, so, so delicious. This is the best food I've ever eaten. Ah... I can't live without it, it's so delicious, I want more..."

Tai tore off a pig leg and started gnawing on it wildly.

"Is it really that good?" Bao Dalong sniffed the aroma, unsure if Tai was exaggerating.

"Why don't we try it and find out?" Yao Yaoling suggested.

"Good idea, let's go," Bao Dalong agreed.

The two took a bite, and wow, it was delicious, so tasty.

Then they started devouring it, even more crazily than Tai, as if they hadn't eaten in days.

"Hey, hey, don't hog it, this is my roast pig," Tai shouted.

"We're just having a little, move aside," Bao Dalong said, practically pressing his big belly against the pig, biting into the pig's head and refusing to let go.

Yao Yaoling was even more outrageous, grabbing the pig's tail and diving in headfirst.

Jiang Feng watched the three weirdos with a chuckle, shaking his head helplessly. The more weirdos, the more fun!

After a hearty meal, it was time for the big farewell.

"My good buddy, can't you stay and roast for me a few more times?" Tai pleaded, gnawing on a bone.

"No, you said it yourself, this is the last time. A promise is a promise, right? So don't try to keep me here, I have a lot to do," Jiang Feng replied kindly.

"Alright then, but you must visit often, or I'll starve to death," Tai added.

"Are you stupid? You haven't learned something so simple yet? You can try roasting it yourself, maybe it'll taste even better," Bao Dalong said, tossing away a bone.

"Yeah, Bao's right, you can roast it yourself. I believe you can succeed. It's really simple, just light a fire, put the food on, and control the heat," Jiang Feng said.

Tai's eyes lit up, "Right, why didn't I think of that? Hmm, I can roast it myself from now on, haha, that's a great idea. I'll roast all the food I'm eating now."

"Look at you, silly," Yao Yaoling muttered while picking his teeth.

"Goodbye, my friend, I'm going to try it now," Tai stood up and left, disappearing into the forest in the blink of an eye.

"Wow, another ungrateful guy," Jiang Feng said, exasperated.

What a misfortune to meet such people!

After a sigh, a cloud of dust rose, and the departing Tai suddenly ran back, startling everyone.

"What are you doing back?" Jiang Feng asked.

"Hehe, I have something to give you, consider it a parting gift," Tai said with a silly grin, pulling something out from the leaves at his waist and handing it to Jiang Feng.

"What's this?" Jiang Feng hesitated to take it, not because he feared danger, but because he was a bit disgusted. This thing came from Tai's... well, it might be dirty!

"I don't know what it is either. I found it in the depths of the forest. It looked special, so I kept it with me. I'm giving it to you today," Tai said.

Jiang Feng pinched it with his fingers and examined it. It was an oval stone with an eye carved on it.

The eye looked strange, with a large pupil, narrow corners, and long eyelashes, like a woman's eye.

It also gave a very three-dimensional, deep impression, as if the eye connected to the abyss, impossible to see through.

It felt like it could suck a person in.

Jiang Feng quickly shook his head to clear his mind.

This eye was too eerie, definitely not an ordinary object.

Moreover, it couldn't be a modern item, as the wear marks indicated it had at least a hundred years of history.

Jiang Feng knew that many sages and great figures had existed on Earth, leaving behind many treasures, like the predecessors of A Hundred Schools of Thought.

Maybe this stone was related to that era, so Jiang Feng decided to keep it. Who knows, it might lead to some discovery someday.

"Thanks, my friend," Jiang Feng said gratefully.

"Hehe, as long as you accept it, I'm off," Tai turned and ran, this time for real.

Jiang Feng put the stone away, "Let's go too. We've been living in the wilderness for so many days, it's time to enjoy the big city life, or we'll lose touch with society."

...

Twenty days later, after a leisurely journey, they finally returned to Meilong City.

"We've arrived at the great place I told you about. How is it? Not bad, right?" Jiang Feng pointed to the concrete jungle outside.

"Wow, it's so bustling. I've never been to a place like this. I didn't expect humans to have developed to this extent," Yao Yaoling marveled.

"Look, there's a beauty ahead, absolutely stunning," Bao Dalong said, not forgetting to check out the beauties while driving.

"Beauty? Where? Let me see," Yao Yaoling jumped up at the mention of a beauty, sticking his head out the window to scan the area.

"Uh..." Yao Yaoling froze instantly, drooling like the Yellow River, flowing endlessly.

A fashionable woman in shorts and a tank top, wearing high heels, happened to pass by the car, her stunning allure overturning Yao Yaoling's perception.

The women he had seen before were all Earth Spirits, like him, short and identical in appearance, lacking any attraction.

But the woman he saw now was completely different, with beauty, a lovely face, and a figure... absolutely a fairy.

"So beautiful, I like this kind of woman. I want to make her my wife," Yao Yaoling said, infatuated.

"Calm down, women here aren't easy to win over. Not only do you need to be handsome and charming, but you also need money. Otherwise, they won't follow you, unless you're exceptionally good in bed and they can't bear to leave you," Jiang Feng said.

"What if I just take her?" Yao Yaoling asked, wiping his drool.

"We have police here. If you try that, you'll be eating bullets," Jiang Feng warned.

"What if I'm not handsome and have no money?" Yao Yaoling said, deflated.

"There's still the last condition," Jiang Feng said with a mischievous smile.

"Right, I haven't tested my skills in that area, but I think I'm not weak. I can definitely satisfy them," Yao Yaoling said, delighted.

"But you have to let them experience it first," Jiang Feng added.

"Alright, I'll show her what I'm capable of," Yao Yaoling said, about to jump out of the car to chase the woman.

Jiang Feng grabbed him, "Don't be hasty. You need to use a gentle approach. I think you should wait. When I have time, I'll teach you how to charm women. Then finding a wife or two won't be a problem."

"But I want it now," Yao Yaoling said impatiently.

"Don't rush. Good things take time. Patience is a virtue. Stick with me, and you'll find women. Leave it to me," Jiang Feng assured him.

If not handled properly, Yao Yaoling might cause trouble, so Jiang Feng decided to calm him down first.

After much persuasion, Yao Yaoling finally settled down, listening to Jiang Feng's advice and not rushing to find a wife.

With Yao Yaoling calmed, Bao Dalong started acting up, "I've brought you to Meilong City. Can you pay me for the ride now?"

Jiang Feng rolled his eyes, "You're already here, no rush to leave. Do you think I won't pay you? Once I get the money, I'll give it to you. Seriously, all you think about is money. I think you have no ulterior motives."

"Who says? Once you pay me, I can find a wife. Didn't you say? Either be handsome or have money. At least I have one, hehe, finding a wife will be easier," Bao Dalong said, chuckling.

"Get lost, don't mention women to me again. If anyone does, I'll be mad," Jiang Feng finally snapped. Damn it, they're all obsessed with women, it's infuriating.

With Jiang Feng's outburst, the two dared not speak further. Yao Yaoling pretended to look out the window, while Bao Dalong focused on driving, but his eyes kept glancing at Jiang Feng, seemingly enjoying his frustration.

"Hey, Shaoqing, are you home?" Jiang Feng called Cheng Shaoqing.

Cheng Shaoqing was surprised to receive Jiang Feng's call but quickly calmed down, "You finally remembered to call me? I thought you forgot about me."

Cheng Shaoqing's tone carried a hint of resentment.

"Hehe, I went to a remote place with no signal, so I couldn't call you. But now that I'm back, I'm calling you right away," Jiang Feng chuckled, telling a little lie.

"You're back? Where are you now? I'm at home, it's Sunday, no classes today," Cheng Shaoqing said excitedly, then quickly added, "But I'm busy studying, can't pick you up."

Jiang Feng found it amusing. Cheng Shaoqing was quite the actress, this little girl.

"I'll be home soon, no need to pick me up," Jiang Feng said, "You keep studying, good luck."

...

Fifteen minutes later, their car stopped in front of their residence.

Cheng Shaoqing's head peeked out from the door, looking around expectantly.

Seeing this, Jiang Feng felt a warmth in his heart. It seemed Cheng Shaoqing genuinely cared for him, yet she insisted on being coy. Women are hard to understand.

Cheng Shaoqing, whom he hadn't seen for days, seemed even more beautiful. Her former aloofness was no longer as pronounced, like an iceberg mostly melted.

Now, Cheng Shaoqing's brows carried a hint of longing, her eyes a touch of tenderness. Her once cold beauty had transformed into a gentle elegance.

No longer so unapproachable, she now seemed inviting, even inspiring admiration...
