Chapter 131: The Snake and the Old Man
Pushing open the courtyard door, I saw the little six sons dozing on the stone table.
He gently stepped forward and shook his shoulder.
"Hmmm......"
Xiao Liuzi glanced up at Li Xian with sleepy eyes, but he didn't react yet.
"Brother Li?"
'Huh?Brother Li'
The joy on his face bloomed from his eyes little by little: "Brother Li, you can be counted back." Xiao Liuzi slammed into the stone table with his knees, grinning in pain.
"Ouch......"
Li Xian said helplessly: "You kid." ”
The boss is not small, and he is still so reckless. ”
Pushing open the door of the house, you will see all kinds of expensive medicinal herbs and meat, and there is almost no place to put your feet, and the wooden table is full of bottles and cans, and the hidden medicinal fragrance emanates from it. It's just that all kinds of medicinal aromas are mixed together to form an indescribable taste.
These are all sent by Steward Cheng himself, for several days in a row, there are all kinds of medicinal pills, all kinds of variety, I don't want to think that he is a pig? How can he eat so much in one go!
He asked the process housekeeper, how Wang Jinglin was doing......
Steward Cheng's answer was very official: "The master is a little unwell, and he can't see the guest yet, if there is anything important, General Li can tell me directly, and I will go back and tell the master." ”
People don't want to say it, so naturally he won't ask boring questions.
Li Xian opened the window, took off all the armor on his body, and took out the knife diary and small bag in the inner layer. Stretching his waist, he took out an unknown year of ginseng from the basket on the ground, put it directly in his mouth, chewed it, and said vaguely: "Didn't you say today that you don't have to wait for me?"
Xiao Liuzi was making charcoal to boil hot water outside, and when he heard something, he shouted: "Brother Li...... What are you talking about?"
Li Xian, who was dressed in regular clothes, swallowed the ginseng in his mouth in one go, leaned against the door frame and said with a smile: "I said that today I didn't let you have to wait for me!"
A faint warm current rises in the abdomen,
Hey-the school yard over there in the county government has already been repaired, except for the rotating ones on duty, one by one, and the burned houses in other places, General Cui has already arranged for manpower to deal with them, and there is nothing to do. ”
"Didn't I borrow two of your military books too?
"Look! Da Zhuang is so energetic, Brother Li, you haven't seen Da Zhuang's hungry appearance in the morning, and you are about to go crazy with that military book!"
"What about you?"
Xiao Liuzi patted his trouser leg and stood up, and laughed wryly: "Oops...... Brother Li: I'm going to be the captain of the army, and it's useless to read the military book! I might as well think about how to practice martial arts to protect you. ”
Li Xian snorted, almost laughing.
"Then have you practiced martial arts?"
"Well...... this" Xiao Liuzi touched his hair and was speechless for a while.
Li Xian shook his head and smiled, turned around and went back to the house, came to the pile of bottles and cans on the table, picked out a few bottles of pills that strengthened qi and blood, took them out and handed them to Xiao Liuzi, and admonished:
"These are all the best pills, after you go back, you will also give Da Zhuang and Lao Chen a bottle each, one pill a day is enough, after taking it, Taizu Changquan can consume the effect of the medicine for two hours!
This ......"
After getting along for so long, Xiao Liuzi is such a 'simple' person, Li Xian still doesn't understand him?
"Ouch......"
Xiao Liuzi shuddered violently and exhaled in pain.
"What do you think, don't you see that there are many in my house, hurry up and take it and leave, go back to rest, don't you have to practice tomorrow?"
Li Xian pushed Xiao Liuzi's back and pushed him directly out of the small courtyard, and said viciously:
"Practice martial arts well, I know you're about to succeed in changing blood...... The qi and blood and medicinal effects provided by this elixir are completely sufficient, and if you don't arrive in a few days, you will be beaten up. ”
Boom!
The courtyard door was slammed shut, Xiao Liuzi looked at the bottles of pills in his hand and then looked at the tightly closed door, with a bright smile on his face.
"Brother Li, don't worry, if I don't succeed in exchanging blood in two days, I won't be the captain of your personal soldiers!"
There are two lanterns hanging in front of the county office not far away, and the stone statue of the pig is gloomy and majestic.
Clutching the porcelain vase in his hand, Xiao Liuzi walked straight to the courtyard next to him, and as soon as he pushed open the courtyard door, the sound of laughter and noise suddenly sounded.
Right
Li Xian funded all the courtyards next to the county government, and there was a special military camp behind the county government for rest, but it was too crowded...... Backed by Wu Jun's steady flow of funds, he still has a little money, and a little luxury gives his subordinates a better living environment.
But......
When Steward Han came that day, he specially asked about the courtyard, and said with a calm face and a slight smile: "General Li, all the shops and courtyards near the county government belong to the Wang family, and the rent will be exempted in the future." ”
Tut-tut......
Li Xian heard the words of Xiao Liuzi outside, and a slight smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. Before I could enter the house, I saw a small cloth bag tumbling over the threshold.
Want to escape?
Take a step forward and directly pick up the small cloth bag, put it on the table and open it.
Sou!
There was a slight cracking sound, and a black shadow flew out of the cloth bag.
The dragon pupils quietly appeared in his eyes, and there seemed to be a dull coercion in the air to form a substance, followed by a popping sound.
"Shhhh
The little snake hissed in grief and indignation.
A pair of big hands picked it up and put it on the table, and the little blue and black snake looked at the tall human in front of him...... Familiar cheeks, so annoying!
Li Xian had a playful smile on the corner of his mouth, and took out a small wooden box from under the bed and opened it, revealing the jade seal.
You can't run...... Die. ”
Say it...... How did you get down the well? What do you want to do with this seal?"
"Shhhh
The little blue and black snake opened its snout and threatened fiercely, just like the usual fighting state that snakes would adopt when they encountered natural predators.
'Damn, this human has figured out the origin of the treasure so quickly?...... If the wisdom of the snake master is exposed again, the consequences will be unimaginable. ’
'The acting skills are much better than ingots, and it looks very real, but the IQ is more touching than ingots. ’
Whether it is from the demeanor of the little snake or from its every move, it can be seen that this guy is human, for this kind of demon beast that is not yet a demon, Li Xian has his own set of simple and effective methods.
If the little snake knew what Li Xian was saying about him in his heart, he would definitely scold him! If he hadn't been blinded by lard and swallowed Li Xian once, it would have turned into a Jiao! Hundreds of years of Taoism would have been lost to save his life, and if it hadn't been for Li Xian's heavenly restraint, it would have eaten Li Xian a long time ago!
boom
Two muffled sounds.
A jar of fine medicinal wine was placed in front of the little blue and black snake, and a sharp carving knife was inserted next to the medicine jar.
There are two ways, one is to be soaked into medicinal wine, and the other is to be made into snake soup. ”
There was a miserable smile on the corner of Li Xian's mouth, and there seemed to be blood flashing in the dragon's pupils.
The little snake had a snake kiss but didn't dare to hiss, closed the snake kiss stupidly, and looked at Li Xian in horror.
'Is there any mistake, aren't both ways trying to kill me?'
Afraid!
Li Xian saw the look in the little snake's eyes, and laughed in his heart, but to be honest, the two paths Li Xian gave were true, this thing was clearly a demon beast that had become a spirit, if it was let go, it might as well eat people, so it was better to go into your stomach and do a good deed.
But one thing has been confirmed, it is able to understand people's words! And it is Da Jin Yayan, this little snake...... It's not simple.
Pulling out the carving knife and weighing it back and forth in his hand, Li Xian said with a gloomy face: "Actually...... I forgot to mention one way, and that is if I ask you a few questions, you nod or shake your head, and if you answer to my satisfaction, you can avoid becoming a part of the medicinal wine or the snake soup!"
The little blue and black snake was so frightened that it collapsed on the wooden table, and nodded its head busily.
Communication is barrier-free, and the degree of wisdom is not low. ’
First of all...... You came here specifically to find this Imperial Seal?" Li Xian swiped his thumb across the cold knife technique and asked coldly.
The little snake nodded.
'Demon beast sealed?'
"Do you have any other way to activate this seal, and is there a way to bypass the will of the Emperor of Man and personally seal it?"
As soon as these words came out, the heart of the little blue and black snake instantly trembled.
'It's over!'
A cold light flashed in Li Xian's eyes, raise your hand!
Boom!
The carving knife was inserted deeply into the small snake only one centimeter away, and the cold blade seemed to be colder than the snake's body.
"Nod or shake your head, you can't deceive my eyes!" If you dare to lie to me, then your fate will be worse than making snake soup or medicinal wine!"
The little blue and black snake couldn't think of any worse way to die than being eaten, but just looked at the dragon pupil in the human eye socket in front of him.
I only feel that reality and fantasy alternate,
The human beings in front of him seemed to have turned into a black dragon across the sky, and the blood light overflowed from the hideous scale armor around the body, and the clouds covered the rain, the blood clouds, and the blood rain!
The Captain of the Scale Worm - Dragon!
The crushing of the high dragon genus, the terrifying to the extreme, made the snake dizzy!
The little blue and black snake nodded with difficulty.
Li Xian didn't delve into this question, but asked, "Last question, what are you of use to me?"
What use do I have? Isn't what you just said my greatest use? What other use do I have besides this?
The little blue and black snake in a trance hadn't reacted yet.
Click,
A sound similar to a cowhide being cut sounded, and the snake's body was slightly cut by a sharp blade.
There is a great terror between life and death!
The little snake trembled with a wit, and immediately understood that what he had just said was good for itself, not good for the human in front of him at all.
"Hiss-" The little blue and black snake hissed at Li Xian.
The corners of Li Xian's mouth outlined an imperceptible arc, and the carving knife in his hand was carefully removed.
The little snake slid over the snake's body, opening its mouth as if it wanted to squirt something...... found that the table was full of precious meat and medicinal herbs, and looked at Li Xian pitifully and helplessly.
His indifferent cheeks twitched slightly, and he pulled all the bottles and cans on the table in the corner with a stroke of his hand.
Please start your performance.
The snake kiss was slightly opened, and at the same time, the alarm bell sounded loudly in his mind, and the big hand holding the carving knife couldn't help but clench.
I saw a stream of jet-black venom spewing out of the snake's kiss, and there seemed to be a scorching smell in the air.
The venom landed on the eaves of the table, and a corner of the table was evaporated out of thin air, and then fell to the ground and rose up with an unpleasant white mist. A breeze blew in through the window, carrying away the white mist, and the ground was corroded into a fist-sized pit of dirt.
It's poisonous, it's powerful, but it's more than that.
In Li Xian's point of view, everything just now became extremely slow, like the slow motion of a movie, one by one, the venom spewed out from the black and deep snake kiss, just a moment of contact, the wood was evaporated out of thin air, not even a slag was left, and there was a very small hole in the corroded soil pit, which should be the residual venom directly penetrated!
Judging from the corrosiveness alone, it is extremely strong and dangerous, dangerous to the extent that the alarm bell rings, and the toxicity is not visible, but it should not be bad.
If it weren't for the race's Tenk, this thing would be dangerous. Li Xian thought to himself. But just in case, it can be used as a backhand. ’
The indifferent cheeks melted like an iceberg, revealing a bright smile and picking up the little snake. The dragon pupils in Li Xian's eyes quietly disappeared, turned into black and white eyes, and said with a smile: "Okay, you will follow me in the future......"
"Shhhh
The snake letter spits out.
O my snake mother, I finally survived from this human, and I was able to get through the tricks. ’
The little snake was glad for a while, its Taoism had already been absorbed by Li Xian, where is there such a great toxicity now, it all depends on the poisonous mist released by Jia Xu that day was absorbed by it, and it has been stored in the poison glands, mixed with its own poison!
Fortunately, Li Xian didn't know, if he knew that this snake dared to deceive him, he would be divided into two halves, half snake soup and half medicinal wine.
Rumble!
There was a loud thunderclap, the humidity in the air became thicker and thicker, and the wind gradually increased.
The little snake who survived the catastrophe lay on the table sickly and looked at Li Xian who got up and closed the window, and pondered in his heart.
Is this a human being? Does it mean that a demon who has cultivated for thousands of years has become a human being, or is it a dragon?
Then he couldn't help but sigh...... When can I suck that human true poison mist again, it has been a long time since such a high-quality venom with quality assurance has been brewed from the poison glands.
Syllable!
The doors and windows were slammed shut, and the huts in the courtyard were lit with candles, and the flames flickered.
......
......
At the same time, there is a separate courtyard behind the carpenter's shop.
The rain began to fall.
Inside, the candle flame was lit.
The old man looked at the fine quality wood in front of him and fell into deep thought, and instinctively reached out and took the flask from the table beside him, and swallowed it with a grunt.
Hiccup –
The old man's cheeks turned red, "Ahhh
"Spoiled!" scolded in a low voice.
Yan Lao continued to look at the human-tall wood, and the carving knife swirled in his hand with old age spots.
He was hesitating about what to carve? This is a rare piece of wood, and it is difficult to get it to the point of exaggeration that is rare in a thousand years, and even the old man himself did not expect that the owner of the timber business would be so generous.
Reaching out and touching the rough texture of the surface of the wood, decades of experience can judge the quality of a piece of wood just by feeling it.
"Wine ......"
"Wine ......"
The old man muttered a few words, got up from the small stool, and the figure disappeared into the darkness, and then the sound of rummaging through the cabinets sounded.
After a while, the old man came back with a scarlet flask.
Rumbling ...... The wine melted into a stream and entered the old man's mouth.
His face turned redder and his eyes became misty......
