Chapter 1216: The Peacock King

"Peacock killing martial arts cheats? Peacock Feather Weapon? Jiang Shiheng's eyes widened, looking at the two sticks in front of him, very incomprehensible.

"I don't know the specifics, this little book should have been left to you by Peacock! He even left his weapons behind, and it seems that he wants to choose you as his heir! This can be regarded as a creation for you! Zhen Cheng looked at Jiang Shiheng's shocked look, thought for a while, and continued, "You should study it yourself, I, like you, don't know anything about this secret book and Peacock Feather, if you don't understand anything one day, you come to me again, and we will discuss it together!" After Zhen Cheng finished speaking, he closed the secret book of peacock killing, put it in front of Jiang Shiheng, and said solemnly, "Take good care of these two things!" I'll study the contents of this vial and return it to you after I figure it out! ”

"Director Xiexie!" Jiang Shiheng looked at the cheats and peacock feathers in front of him, his eyes were full of gratitude.

Seeing that Jiang Shiheng was still looking at him with expectant eyes, Zhen Cheng smiled and said, "I'll tell you a little bit of peacock knowledge!" ”

"Good! Just to relieve boredom! Jiang Shiheng hurriedly replied.

"Because we have a dragon as a totem in China, in addition to auspicious rays such as phoenixes and unicorns, peacocks are not valued in our country. Judging from the birds alone, the phoenix is the most noble, but no one has ever seen it. And the peacock is different, as long as we pay attention, we can find the beauty of the peacock, in India, the blue peacock symbolizes auspiciousness, happiness, health, longevity, so the Indian people like to associate the peacock with the gods, and consider the peacock to be a strange bird, a holy bird. In India, on the grassy ground, on the flowery roadside, in the courtyard where people live, the blue peacock often flies in groups of three or five, as if a beautiful woman is dragging a long emerald dress, wandering freely everywhere, not afraid of people at all, because no one dares to catch it, for fear of angering the gods, for fear of calamity coming to their heads. ”

"Does that mean that the blue peacock is the most noble?" Jiang Shiheng restrained his excited look, listened carefully to Zhen Cheng's introduction to the knowledge of peacocks, and saw that Zhen Cheng was no longer talking, and continued to ask with some unfinished feelings.

"That's not it! The most prized peacocks are the green peacock and the Javanese peacock, not the blue peacock! Peacocks are often a male with several females, and three or five are active in small groups. The male has emerald blue-green plumage and a copper-colored sheen on its lower back. There is a crest of upright feathers on the top of the head. The tail feathers extend into a tail screen, which can reach more than one meter, there are about more than 100 pieces, and there are eye-like markings composed of purple, yellow, blue and green colors, forming a peacock's unique tail screen. When the screen is opened, it looks unusually gorgeous and dazzling. The male has a long tail, with a raised crown feathers on the head, a green luster on the neck, upper back and chest, and a tail screen with shiny eye spots. ”

"When you say that, I really want to see the peacock, when I was in Yanjing, I went to the zoo to hang out, I didn't look carefully, it turns out that the peacock still has so many characteristics!"

"This time you were rescued by the peacock, it can be regarded as a fate with the peacock, the peacock kills you to figure out more, in the future, in case Yujian is dangerous, you have to fight in close combat, this is also a very haode life-saving move! As for the use of the peacock feather, it depends on your creation! ”

"These two things are not the things on the peacock, weishenme is called peacock ling?" The afterglow of the setting sun shone on Jiang Shiheng's face, and the sad and decadent look that had become because of Ximen Shuang'er was gradually replaced by thought and curiosity. Staring at the peacock feather, Jiang Shiheng couldn't help but be stupid.

"I'll tell you another story!" Zhen Cheng interrupted Jiang Shiheng loudly, smiled and said, "Maybe you can learn something from it, but not necessarily."

"Okay, I'll listen!" Jiang Shiheng hurriedly replied happily.

"According to the literature, as early as ancient times, the Indian people carved the beautiful image of the peacock on flower beds and utensils, embroidered on silk silk, carved on buildings, and molded in temples. The famous ancient Indian poet Kalidasa spoke highly of the peacock and was called "the bird of the Indian nation". Indians also like to be referred to by others as the Mauryan Empire. There is also a widespread story about the Peacock King in India.

It is rumored that in ancient times, there was a peacock king, and he was accompanied by 500 female peacocks.

One day, he saw a very beautiful blue peacock, so he abandoned the five hundred female peacocks around him and pursued this beautiful blue peacock.

Since then, the Peacock King has fed it day and night, and it is inseparable. Once, in search of food for the blue peacock, the peacock king was captured by the king's archers. The Peacock King devoted himself to curing the king's wife and the common people.

The King of Peacock said to the king, "I have cured my wife and the common people of their diseases, and the people of the country should offer me to the gods of heaven. When the king heard this, he untied the peacock king, and he spread his wings and flew away. This story tells people to restrain their greed, or they will fall into harm's way. At the same time, he also praised the Peacock King for his intelligence, alertness, and happiness for people. ”

Zhen Cheng didn't speak quickly, and after telling the story, he didn't say anything more, stood up, and left quietly.

Jiang Shiheng continued to experience the story of the Peacock King, and firmly had an idea in his heart that made his blood boil.

"I want to be the Peacock King of the Cold Mang! I want to use my cleverness and alertness to become a god that others worship! Jiang Shiheng's face was full of red light, and even the original pale and sickly appearance on his face seemed to have faded a little.

The afterglow of the setting sun slanted to Jiang Shiheng's bed, and Jiang Shiheng, who was obsessively watching the peacock killing move, completely forgot the peacock feather placed beside him.

The colors of the two peacock feathers are constantly changing, like the opening of a male peacock, leaving a little blue or green afterimage in the dark corner of the room. Weird, cold, and murderous. It's a pity that Jiang Shiheng didn't find out.

On this shijie, sometimes gains and losses are just a thought, and looking back a few years later, Jiang Shiheng is very grateful to Zhen Cheng for telling him the story of the Peacock King. If it weren't for Zhen Cheng's words, maybe Jiang Shiheng would have disappeared in remorse and impatience, and that would not have achieved the immortal myth of Han Mang's future top ten golden generals slaughtering the paladins of the European and American Alliance!

When Zhen Cheng returned to the room, Beichen Jingshu just walked out of the door.

"Sister Wan'er, I'm going back!" Beichen Jingshu seemed to have suddenly lost her memory, she didn't even look at Zhen Cheng, turned her head and left quickly.

"Did I offend her?" After closing the door, Zhen Cheng looked at Nangong Wan'er with a puzzled face and asked.

"How will I know about the two of you!" Nangong Wan'er seemed to be very tired, twisted her waist, walked to the sofa and sat down, and said without joy or sadness.

"What can I have to do with her, I'm just asking!" Zhen Cheng smiled, put the vial in his hand in front of Nangong Wan'er and asked, "You are knowledgeable, take a look, do you know this thing?" ”

A small, blue, transparent, well-made glass bottle seven or eight centimeters tall containing something like a viscous liquid.

"It tastes good, and it refreshes you when you smell it!" Nangong Wan'er didn't reach for the glass bottle, leaned forward, and looked carefully, "You're still familiar with medicinal materials, I'm not sure what this is!" Nangong Wan'er waved her hand, signaled Zhen Cheng not to sell Guanzi, and hurriedly said.

"I suspect it's peacock gall!" The smile on Zhen Cheng's face retracted, looked at the glass bottle on the table and said solemnly, "Poison through the ages? Peacock gall? Nangong Wan'er sat up straight like a conditioned body, looked at the vial on the table, stared at the beautiful eyes, and asked in surprise.

"You're talking about peacock gall wine, not peacock gall wine!" Zhen Cheng smiled and said like a tongue twister.

"Confused!"

"The gallbladder of the real peacock is similar to the gallbladder of most birds and mammals, which has the effects of calming the liver and relieving the gallbladder, antispasmodic and brightening the eyes; Not only is it non-toxic, but it can inhibit bacteria and anti-inflammatory, clear heat and detoxify. And the peacock gall wine you just mentioned is actually a kind of insect, the dried body of the southern cantharid. Southern cantharid, also known as large coriander; The whole body is jet black, there are three yellow or brownish-yellow horizontal stripes on the back, the body is oblong, the adult body is about three centimeters long, about one centimeter wide, and it is highly poisonous. It is recorded in the "Materia Medica" that cantharids, the muscles of people are ulcerated, and their toxicity can be imagined! Zhen Cheng talked like an old Chinese medicine doctor.

"According to what you just said, this is the wine of peacock's gall?" Nangong Wan'er knew that the small bottle in front of her was not poison, and the color on her face eased a lot, and she immediately asked suspiciously.

"There are countless strange people in our Huaxia Kingdom, and there are even more people who like to spoof. This thing in front of you should be something that was spoofed by some master! It's just that this recipe has long been lost, but I didn't expect to have the opportunity to see the real thing! ”

"Getting to the point! Grinding and chirping, I'm in a hurry! Nangong Wan'er urged loudly, "You say first, what will happen if you drink this thing?" Nangong Wan'er stretched out her little white hand, pointed to the glass bottle and asked.

"Don't worry, wait until I'm done!" Zhen Cheng waved his hand and continued, "I saw a record in Miao Siren's ancient book, which roughly says that some people in later generations mix the poison peacock gall and peacock gall in proportion, and then after years of brewing, it is stored like fine wine, and then it is taken out and dried, the powder is collected and injected into the spirits and then stored, and then exposed, and after repeated many times, the peacock elixir is formed!" ”

"This is Peacock Aelix?" Nangong Wan'er looked at the inconspicuous vial in front of her, and said mischievously with a blushing face, "Are you going to give this thing to me!" ”

"This is Jiang Shiheng's, I can't give it away!" Zhen Cheng looked at Nangong Wan'er and said regretfully.

"Does this thing do anything?" Nangong Wan'er didn't joke anymore, and asked very solemnly.

"It is very helpful for those who cultivate the Gu Wu Internal Strength!" Zhen Cheng picked up the vial in front of him, carefully put it in his pocket and said, "This is given to Jiang Shiheng by a peacock, otherwise I really want to give it to you, so that you can become a master of the ground level!" ”

"Ah" Nangong Wan'er exclaimed, looked at Zhen Cheng, and said in disbelief, "You said that such a little thing can help a person improve to the ground level?" ”

"Maybe it's more than just the ground!"

"What a rebellion! Then can you help me mix some too? Nangong Wan'er hurriedly sat down beside Zhen Cheng, constantly begging and begging.

"Miao Siren and the High Poison King have been studying for so long, but they have not succeeded, I am a little bit of a Taoist, let's save a province!" Zhen Cheng glanced at Nangong Wan'er and said with a wry smile, "In case I can't get it right, and what comes out is poison and poisons you, then I won't kill myself!" Besides, it takes years to get this thing once, and our little fox might be able to use it! ”

"you! I don't want our kids to drink this stuff indiscriminately, in case there are any side effects that will cause trouble! Nangong Wan'er let go of Zhen Cheng's arm, sighed lightly and said, "If I had the strength of the ground level, then I could help you do more things!" ”

"Silly girl!" Zhen Cheng stretched out his hand to hold Nangong Wan'er's waist and said gently, "As long as you sleep with me every night, you can help me!" ”

"Get out," Nangong Wan'er yelled angrily.

It's a pity that the roar didn't last long, and there was a heavy gasp of men and women in Nangong Wan'er's room!
