Chapter Ninety-Seven: The Relationship Between the Heaven-Shaking Ant and the Chicken Blood Spirit Stone

Song Ruilong said very politely: "Zhuoma, this county asks you, you brought ten earth-shaking chickens in the name of controlling the big ants, in fact, you are looking for your son who has been missing for many years, right?"

Dolma's expression was painful and said, "The folk woman is guilty. The woman deceived the adults in this matter, but if the adults could avenge the sons of the women, the women promised that they would cure the big ants. ”

Song Ruilong suddenly slapped the fan in his hand on the table, made a "pop" sound, and said: "Zhuoma, you can see clearly, although this is not a public court, as long as it is the place where the county tries the case, he is the real public court, and there is no selfishness to talk about in the court, and of course he can't talk about deals." Your son was killed in Ping'an County, and as the parent official of Ping'an County, it is incumbent on the county to find out the murderer of your son, and it is not as you said, the county avenges your son in order to eliminate those big ants. ”

Zhuoma lowered his head in shame and said, "What Lord Song said is reasonable, but the people are confused."

Song Ruilong then asked, "Zhuoma, what's going on?" You should tell the county carefully, how could your son die in the bamboo forest of Liu Wanshun's family in Tibet? ”

Zhuoma took a breath and said lightly: "This matter has to start from three years ago. Three years ago, Tashi, the son of the people's woman, and Zamachi, the neighbor of the people's woman, found two egg-sized chicken blood spirit stones on the Jishen Mountain, the chicken blood spirit stone is a mixture of the blood of the earth-shaking chicken and the sky-shaking ant, plus the broken sand and gravel on the mountain, piled up over the years, very precious, the chicken blood spirit stone can not only be carved into a beautiful jade pattern, but also has the effect of invigorating blood and removing stasis, bringing the dead back to life, therefore, the spirit stone is called a living fairy stone by the people of our Jishen Mountain, and it is a good medicine to save lives. ”

Song Ruilong felt that it was necessary to figure out the matter of this earth-shaking chicken, sky-shaking ant and chicken blood spirit stone, so he asked: "Zhuoma, let's not talk about why your son's bones appeared in our Ping'an County, you can tell us about the relationship between this sky-shaking ant, earth-shaking chicken and chicken blood spirit stone?"

Dolma nodded and said, "Yes!" If you go back to your lordship, this chicken blood spirit stone is actually a kind of spirit stone mixed with the blood of the heaven-shaking ant and the earth-shaking chicken, plus broken sand and gravel, and the color is blood red, like a fire. At first, the mountain we lived in was not called Jishen Mountain, it was called Zavat, and we usually planted some barley plants on the mountain to make a living. Later, I don't know where to drill out a large group of big ants, those big ants have eaten up all the barley, even the door of each of our houses is bitten by those big ants, we have nothing to eat, even live in dangerous houses, those big ants with poison can not die, we have no way to take them, the village people call those big ants are sky-shaking ants, which means that no one can afford to provoke the meaning. Just as we were all thinking about whether to leave the Zavat, suddenly out of the foot of the mountain came a fiery red rooster-like bird, the fiery red bird, could not fly, jumped as fast as lightning, it caught those sky-shaking ants to death, and later, those fiery red chickens were more and more, but Zavat's sky-shaking ants were fewer and fewer, and we were all very grateful to those chickens, so we also named them earth-shaking chickens. ”

Song Ruilong and many people seemed to be listening to a story, and after listening to Zhuoma's words, Song Ruilong said slowly: "Those earth-shaking chickens can be said to be the natural enemies of the sky-shaking ants, and they helped you drive away the sky-shaking ants, and the credit is naturally the greatest."

Zhuoma said: "What the adults said is good. The people of our village all worship those earth-shaking chickens as fairies, and there is a statue of earth-shaking chickens on the table of each family, and during the New Year's holidays, we will first let the earth-shaking chickens eat after we dare to enjoy them, because we know that our happy life is given by those earth-shaking chickens, we must worship them well, don't offend them, we will suffer the disaster of the earth-shaking ants again. ”

Song Ruilong finally understood the relationship between the earth-shaking chicken and the sky-shaking ant, and said: "That is to say, this earth-shaking chicken is the natural enemy of the sky-shaking ant, since your Zavat came to the earth-shaking chicken, the big ants there are almost extinct, and without the scourge of the big ants, you can plant barley plants again." This relationship is understood in this county, but you haven't said what the chicken blood spirit stone is all about? ”

Zhuoma said: "If you go back to your lordship, this chicken blood spirit stone is actually the treasure left by the earth-shaking chicken when it pecked at the sky-shaking ants. Adults should have seen the power of the Sky Shaking Ant, the Sky Shaking Ant has a shell on its body, hard as iron, and its two front teeth are stronger than steel knives, so if the Earth Shaking Chicken wants to peck those Sky Shaking Ants to death, it must use a mouth that is harder than steel. The Shaking Chicken's beak is pointed like a needle, and it can peck through the shells of those sky-shaking ants in the fastest and most accurate way. So as to achieve the purpose of killing the sky-shaking ants. However, pecking and killing the sky-shaking ants is also the most mouth-consuming, just like the people chop bamboo, spend axes and sickles, the axes and sickles are blunt and can be sharpened, so the mouth of the earth-shaking chicken can also be sharpened. After the earth-shaking chicken pecks at the sky-shaking ant, when it grinds its mouth on the big stone, a layer of hard shell on its mouth will be ground off, and the blood in the mouth of the earth-shaking chicken and the blood of the sky-shaking ant will remain on the stone, and there is still a small grit on the stone, and those things are mixed together to become a rare treasure chicken blood spirit stone. ”

Everyone was amazed when they heard this, especially when they heard that this chicken blood spirit stone had the effect of invigorating blood and removing blood stasis and bringing the dead back to life, they all wanted to see what the chicken blood spirit stone looked like.

Song Ruilong said: "According to what you say, do you have a lot of chicken blood spirit stones on your Zavat?"

Dolma nodded, "What the Lord said is good. However, the chicken blood spirit stones on Zavat Mountain are very small, the size of rice grains, usually go to the mountain to pick some back, put them in the pot and cook them together with barley noodles, the taste is okay, it can invigorate blood and dispel blood stasis, and prolong life, but it is difficult to find chicken blood spirit stones the size of eggs. ”

Song Ruilong asked strangely: "Since this chicken blood spirit stone is a mixture of the blood of the earth-shaking chicken, the sky-shaking ant, and the mouth of the earth-shaking chicken, why is it so difficult to find in your place?"

Zhuoma said: "Those chicken blood spirit stones are produced when the earth-shaking chicken pecks at the sky-shaking ants, rubs their mouths on the big stones, because there are many big stones on the mountain, and those earth-shaking chickens cannot grind their mouths repeatedly on a stone, so it is necessary to produce an egg-sized chicken blood spirit stone, unless there are a lot of big ants and earth-shaking chickens." We guessed that the two egg-sized Chicken Blood Spirit Stones were formed when the Shaking Chicken first arrived. Because at that time, there were the most sky-shaking ants on Zavat Mountain. Since the Earthquake Chicken saved our entire village, we regarded the Earthquake Chicken as our savior and renamed Zavat Mountain as Chicken God Mountain. The news that there was a chicken blood spirit stone on the chicken god mountain quickly spread in the world, which made the price of the chicken blood spirit stone skyrocket, if an egg-sized chicken blood spirit stone was not carved, it could be sold for at least one million taels of silver. ”
