Chapter 368: Burning the Spirit Phoenix
Monkeys are primates, so it's not surprising that they have their own intelligence. But the little monkey in front of him seemed to be able to understand Zhao Zixian's question, which surprised him. He speaks standard Huaxia and does not think that his owner speaks standard Huaxia rather than dialects like himself. At least he saw the old man in the Miao village where Hei Kumei's house was located, and he spoke some local language, and he couldn't understand a word.
Zhao Zixian hesitated slightly, but still followed the little monkey to the depths of the cave. He has always been on high alert, fearing that something unexpected will happen. As he went deeper, he noticed that the noise caused by his footsteps was getting weaker and weaker, and the temperature was getting lower and lower.
Turning left and right, the little monkey led Zhao Zixian to a square stone room. The square stone chamber is only about 30 square meters. Directly opposite the entrance to the cave is a stone bed on which a skeleton lies. There is also a stone table next to the stone bed, on which are placed a lot of strange-shaped scoop irrigation utensils, I don't know what they are used for.
Zhao Zixian came to the stone bed and recognized at a glance that the skeleton itself was a woman, and she was not tall. There are also many gold ornaments hanging from her wrists and neck. He couldn't help frowning, staring at the skeleton for a moment before moving his gaze to the stone table.
Dozens of people, large and small, Zhao Zixian couldn't figure out what they were used for. He also spotted a neatly folded sheepskin on the table. At that moment, the little monkey jumped on the stone table, grabbed the sheepskin, and handed it over.
Zhao Zixian was stunned at first, and with a slight hesitation, the true qi of the secret kitchen spirit was attached to his hand, and he took the piece of sheepskin. "For me?"
The little monkey waved his hand at Zhao Zixian and smiled. It kept chattering, gesturing with both hands to signal Zhao Zixian to open the piece of sheepskin.
Zhao Zixian felt both angry and funny, a big man was actually commanded by a little monkey to do things. Still, he did as the little monkey wished, and opened the sheepskin. I saw dense earthworm-like writing on the sheepskin, and he didn't know any of them.
"I can't read it!" Zhao Zixian spread his hands and made a helpless look.
The little monkey chirped again, and kept gesturing with his hands. Zhao Zixian guessed for a long time to figure it out, and it made him put away the sheepskin. He smiled wryly again, and put the sheepskin in his bag.
The little monkey smiled at Zhao Zixian again, and then took off the monkey-shaped jade pendant around his neck and handed it over.
"Give it to me too?" Zhao Zixian took the jade pendant and asked suspiciously. Seeing that the little monkey kept nodding, he no longer put the jade pendant into his backpack. For unknown things, he didn't dare to keep them close to his body. The Miao Gu technique was too bizarre, and now that he was in the land of Miao Territory, he had to be cautious everywhere.
The little monkey was amused and laughed. Immediately after that, its fiery red figure jumped out, and suddenly snatched out of the door from Zhao Zixian's side, as fast as lightning. Zhao Zixian was shocked, and it was too late to stop him. He saw only a shadow like a fire, and in the blink of an eye, he disappeared into the cave.
Is there a cha? Zhao Zixian was shocked, he didn't care about the skeleton in the stone room, and hurriedly chased after him. He is fast, but not as agile as a monkey in a small cave. He chased him to the exit of the cave, and saw the little monkey leap off the cliff.
Zhao Zixian frowned, couldn't figure out the situation, and couldn't help jumping off the cliff. As if he was enchanted, he forgot the true qi protection of the kitchen god, and only thought about chasing the little monkey. When the whirring wind sounded in his ears, he was horrified to find that he was falling rapidly. In a panic, he hurriedly raised the true qi of the kitchen god and the true qi of the earth to protect himself and control the speed of his fall.
Syllable! A crisp sound came into the ears of Zhao Zixian, who was falling. He was horrified to find the little monkey dead on a relatively smooth stone slab. Falling to the ground, he walked to the stone slab with a deep brow, only to see that the body of the little monkey had been clung to the stone slab.
The little monkey committed suicide! Zhao Zixian couldn't guess or think clearly, so he had to admit such a fact. Why did it commit suicide on the cliff became the only question that kept spinning in his mind.
Zhao Zixian frowned and stared at the corpse of the little monkey for a long time. Only then did he turn to look at the thousand-year-old Lingzhi at the entrance of the cave on the cliff. Its behavior is too strange to understand.
Zhao Zixian didn't pay much attention to the corpse of the little monkey, jumped up with his feet on the ground, and quickly climbed towards the thousand-year-old Lingzhi. His speed was very fast, and he had climbed to the thousand-year-old Lingzhi in a dozen or so sucking rooms. He didn't hesitate any longer, and dug out the thousand-year-old Lingzhi with the kitchen god knife, without thinking about putting it in his backpack.
Tian Yi stretched out his hand and pulled Zhao Zixian, who was climbing up, and asked with a little worry, "Why is it so long?" ”
Zhao Zixian shook his head and smiled bitterly. "This matter is like a child without a mother, and it is a long story. Let's hurry back, they must have been waiting for a long time. As he spoke, he took Tian Yi's hand and hurriedly left the top of the cliff. He always felt that the whole thing was weird. The little monkey's behavior was so strange that he was first full of hostility towards him, and then led him to the stone chamber and presented him with a sheepskin and a jade pendant.
The little monkey has a high IQ, but it is strangely short-sighted. On the way back, Zhao Zixian's mind kept thinking of the little monkey's corpse sucking on the stone slab. It made him feel very uncomfortable, and he always felt that there was a dangerous aura that was entangled in him.
Zhao Zixian hurried away silently. Tian Yi also didn't ask any more questions, knowing that even if he asked, he might not get an answer. When she saw his gloomy face, she couldn't help but worry and feel uneasy. She didn't understand why she was worried and uneasy, she just felt panicked.
When Zhao Zixian returned to the cave with Tian Yi, Lu Jie hadn't woken up yet. The black bitter girl lit a bonfire and sat by the fire to wait for them to come back.
"Have you ever been down?" Tian Yi looked at the blazing bonfire, stared at the black bitter girl and asked in surprise.
The black bitter girl smiled and nodded, and said, "Yes." What about the firewood that you can't get down? After that, he got up and threw himself into Zhao Zixian's arms, and said coquettishly: "I've been going for so long, and everyone is about to die of waiting." ”
"Something special. Why are you hungry? Zhao Zixian touched the black bitter girl's hair lovingly.
Tian Yi looked suspicious, and he was relieved when he saw the flashlight-sized equipment placed on the side. She is the only one of the four who knows the most about the purpose of the various types of equipment. The flashlight-sized piece of equipment was a miniature rope filled with a thin rope as thick as a thread made of synthetic material. The rope is thousands of kilometers long and extremely thin, but it can withstand a pulling force of about 500 catties, and it is also equipped with two handles to prevent the rope from strangled.
The Black Bitter Girl has more than 1,200 combat power, and it is not difficult to descend a cave up to a thousand meters or so with the help of a miniature pedaling rope. Tian Yi had just thought about Zhao Zixian's extremely strong ability before, and he forgot to use equipment to get in and out.
The black bitter girl pouted, looked at Zhao Zixian and replied, "A little." Seeing the prey that had been cleaned in his hands, he said, "I want to eat the food you have made." ”
Zhao Zixian smiled and nodded in response: "Make sure you are full." With that, he took out the condiments and barbecue fork and got busy.
"Want to help?" Tian Yi asked.
Zhao Zixian glanced at Tian Yi meaningfully, smiled and shook his head. He quickly skewered a few pheasants, took out the kitchen god Wan and cut them, and then put them in the campfire to roast. He glanced at his bulging backpack and remembered that there was still a thousand-year-old Lingzhi there, and a strange smile appeared on his face. "Black girl, come and take this."
After that, he took the barbecue fork in his hand out of the fire and handed it to the black bitter girl. He opened his backpack and took out a thousand-year-old Ganoderma lucidum the size of a basin, cut a piece the size of a thumb with the kitchen god, and clenched it in his hand.
Ganoderma lucidum has always been a precious medicinal material, and was once called a fairy medicine. If the basin-sized white Ganoderma lucidum that Zhao Zixian picked back was brought to the outside world, it would be a priceless treasure. As a descendant of the god of food, he learned a lot about the wonderful uses and effects of Ganoderma lucidum from the "Spectrum of Eternal Life". At present, this thousand-year-old white lingzhi is a healing saint-grade elixir.
The two women's eyes widened as they watched as Zhao Zixian took out a small piece of the thousand-year-old Ganoderma lucidum and put it back in his backpack. The two girls asked almost in unison, "Where did such a big Lingzhi come from?" ”
As soon as Tian Yi's voice fell, he thought of what happened on the cliff before, so he asked in surprise: "Did you pick it from the inside?" ”
Zhao Zixian took the barbecue fork in Hei Kumei's hand and nodded with a smile. "It was picked from the cliff wall. Hey, cow! Seeing that the two girls nodded at the same time, they smiled and said, "This is a thousand-year-old white lingzhi healing elixir." It just so happens that I also make a medicinal meal called 'Fire Burning Lingfeng' and the ingredients just happen to need white Lingzhi. ”
After that, he looked at Lu Jie, who was unconscious, with a smug smile on his face. "Hehe, blessed is this kid."
Zhao Zixian shook the small piece of thousand-year-old Ganoderma lucidum in his hand into powder with the true qi of the kitchen god, while explaining the process of taking Ganoderma lucidum. He hid the matter of the little fiery red monkey, and only said that there was a cave and a stone chamber and bones next to the thousand-year-old Lingzhi.
Zhao Zixian's barbecue level can be described as first-class. He wrapped the thousand-year-old Ganoderma lucidum powder and some spices with the true qi of the kitchen spirit, sent it to the fire, and evenly applied it to the skin of the pheasant. About 10 minutes later, a fragrant roasted pheasant was freshly baked. Zhao Zixian cut a lot of small pieces with the kitchen god and put them in the water cup, and handed them to the black bitter girl: "Put it in that kid's mouth, he himself can't help but swallow it." There was a lot of confidence in his words.
Hei Kumei took the chicken slices, nodded slightly, walked to Lu Jie's side, squatted down and put a small piece of chicken into his mouth. She was surprised to see that his throat thumped and swallowed the chicken. "How so?" Although she believed that what Zhao Zixian said was true, she was still surprised that he swallowed chicken slices on his own.
Zhao Zixian smiled mysteriously, and then said: "The special thing about burning the spirit phoenix. ”
