Chapter 29 Feeding

The sun was shining and the breeze was gentle, and it was still a good day, the same good weather as when Zhao Zheng entered the Mixiang Valley a few days ago.

He was attacked that day, but not today, because he was now in the middle of the rising sun, and even if the Three Swords Sect had the ability to reach the sky, he would not dare to bring people to kill here.

He always seems to meet masters who are much stronger than himself, and I don't know whether to say that he is too unlucky, or whether to say that there are too many masters in the world.

If he could, he really hoped that he would not encounter such bad luck in the future, and it was really not a pleasant thing for a master who was not commensurate with himself. The few wounds he had been cut by Wen Yuhou had not healed yet, and he still had a faint pain occasionally.

He secretly decided that if one day he said it, he would definitely avenge the revenge of several knives and hit Wen Yuhou a few times.

But I'm afraid that day won't come so soon, and I don't know if it will be until the Year of the Monkey.

It will also take a long time to wait, and the day when Pixiu grows up.

As a strange beast, Pixiu's growth cycle is much slower than that of ordinary beasts, and it takes a long time to grow up and become the kind of powerful existence that rivals the Nine Heavenly Martial Artists!

Compared with that kind of distant thing, Zhao Zheng is more concerned about the things in front of him, and what bothers him the most now is not that the Pixiu cub grows slowly, but that the Pixiu cub doesn't eat at all.

At this moment, he was squatting in front of the cage where the Pixiu cub was kept, pushing a few plates of milk forward, and gently persuading the Pixiu cub to come and drink. These dishes of milk are carefully prepared by him, including cow's milk, goat's milk and mare's milk, which can be said to be a wide variety and readily available. In addition to the milk, there are also a few young bamboos and some fresh fruits and vegetables, and even raw meat on the plates next to it. Since he couldn't figure out how big the Pixiu cub was or whether he had been weaned, he could only catch fish with a large net and serve the milk with food.

But what made him depressed was that since the Pixiu cub arrived here, he didn't know whether it was because he missed his dead relatives or out of instinctive vigilance, he refused to eat anything at all, not even water. People are iron and steel, and they are hungry if they don't eat a meal, let alone such a little guy who is waiting to be fed. If this goes on for a long time, within a few days, the little guy will starve to death or die of thirst.

If it really ends up like this, Zhao Zhengke will want to cry without tears.

"Bao, you should eat." Zhao Zheng whispered at the little guy huddled in the shadows. Po is the name he gave to this Pixiu cub, and it is still very appropriate to give this name to a panda who knows martial arts. In fact, just before capturing the Pixiu cubs, he had already thought of the name.

"Baa ......" Ah Bao called weakly, looked at Zhao Zheng with black eyes stained with, and then turned his little head a little stubbornly, buried his head in the shadow of the corner, and aimed his round ass at Zhao Zheng.

Zhao Zheng called Ah Bao a few more times, but Ah Bao still refused to come over to eat, he sighed, and was faintly worried.

At this time, there was a knock on the door, and Wang Er, who was also in the courtyard, ran over and opened the door. A person flashed in from behind the door, this person was an old man with a good appearance, and it was the chief steward of the dispatch.

This busy man has always been a person who has nothing to do but go to the Three Treasures Palace. Zhao Zheng put down the dish with milk, got up to greet him, and greeted Le Zhizhi.

Le Bu raised his hand, said goodbye, and then walked straight to the cage, leaned over to see Ah Bao's situation, frowned and asked, "Is this Pixiu still not eating?" ”

"Well, it still refuses to eat, whether it is coaxing it or teasing it, or letting it stay alone in one place, it refuses to eat." Zhao Zheng replied depressedly.

"Pixiu is a top-grade beast, its strength is extremely strong, if you can raise it smoothly, it will definitely be your good helper in the future. Either way, you have to find a way to get it to eat, and if you need anything, just tell me that if you can help, I will help it to the end. ”

"Thank you, sir, I'll do everything I can to get it to eat." Zhao Zheng thanked.

Pixiu is not known to everyone, most people don't know what Pixiu is, and they are easily deceived by Pixiu's cute appearance, and regard it as a very docile beast. But Le didn't know how to be well-informed, and when he saw Pixiu for the first time, he recognized it, and at Zhao Zheng's strong request, he agreed to let Zhao Zheng raise this Pixiu.

Pixiu was brought back by Zhao Zheng, and it is natural to have him as the owner of Pixiu.

After chatting about Pixiu, Zhao Zheng suddenly remembered another extremely important matter, and took this rare opportunity to pass on the voice to Le Zhi: "Manager Le, I think there is one thing that is very strange, I don't know whether to talk about it or not. ”

"Elder Zhao, we are not outsiders, you can just say anything you want." Le Bu smiled.

"Well, I'll get straight to the point. That day, I met Wen Yuhou and Leng Xing with the Jade Hall Master and his party in the Misty Fragrance Valley, which was too coincidental, I suspect that someone was obstructing us and informed the Three Swords Sect of the news that we were going to the Misty Fragrance Valley, so the Three Swords Sect would send Wen Yuhou and Leng Xing to attack us. If it weren't for the help of Hall Master Zhang and Pixiu that day, we would probably have become the souls of Wen Yuhou and the others. This matter is not trivial, and I hope that Mr. Le, you will think about it, who may be the one who reported the news. Before we set off, I reminded you to keep your mouth shut and keep it a secret. I guess you must not have mentioned this to too many people, so there won't be too many suspects. Zhao Zheng said solemnly.

After hearing this, Le Bu didn't have a smile on his face, nodded with a calm face, and said, "Indeed, this matter is too coincidental, and people have to have doubts. You are not the only one who has mentioned this matter to me, Yu Ling'er and Hall Master Zhang have also mentioned it to me before, and I have thought about it carefully, but I have not come up with any suspects. I haven't mentioned it to anyone about your departure for the Misty Valley, so there's no leaking news. I guess the news didn't leak from my mouth, but from the mouths of a few of you. ”

"The yellow sky is above, the thick earth is below, I have never told anyone else about our trip to the Misty Fragrance Valley except for the sword slave seniors. This news has never leaked out of me. Zhao Zheng said categorically.

"I also know that you are not a person with a big tongue, so I didn't suspect you at all, if you hadn't brought it up, I wouldn't have bothered to ask about it."

"Chief, with all due respect, I dare to ask, haven't you really mentioned this news to outsiders other than us?" Zhao Zheng was bold and asked deliberately. On the day he left the Misty Fragrance Valley, he had already suspected a person, and the reason why he asked this today was to knock on the side and see Le Bu's reaction.

"No, no, absolutely nothing...... "Le Bu didn't know what to say, but suddenly stopped, his eyes trembled three times, and his brows furrowed. Under Zhao Zheng's reminder, he suddenly remembered a person, before Zhao Zheng and the others set off, he had mentioned this matter to this person, and this person was his wife!

Zhao Zheng noticed the obvious change in Le Zhi's face, his eyes were fixed, and he asked, "Manager Le, did you think of someone suspicious?" ”

Le Bu frowned, hesitated again and again, and finally didn't confide in his heart, but shook his head and said, "No, I didn't think of anyone suspicious, don't be careful." What I remembered was another thing, Yu Ling'er, the kid, finally used the mirinous grass that she picked back last time to successfully refine the jade skin cream. When you go to Leng Xiangju tomorrow, she will tell you about the refining process, and she will also start refining the next elixir. I'm passing by here today and I'm here to tell you about it. ”

Zhao Zheng didn't know how to take the initiative to divert the topic, and it was not good to continue to ask, so he sighed lightly and said, "I see, this is really good news." After I finish learning the refining method of the jade muscle cream, I can learn the meat incense pill from the master of the jade hall...... That's right! Meat Xiangdan! How could I have forgotten this panacea! Halfway through his words, he suddenly thought of the magical effect of the meat incense pill, and he was so happy that he suddenly jumped up.

Seeing Zhao Zheng's reaction so fierce, he asked curiously, "What's wrong with Rou Xiangdan?" ”

"Manager Le, you are also an alchemy master, how can you forget about this matter. The meat incense pill has a strong aroma, which has a miraculous effect on attracting foreign beasts, if the meat fragrance pill can be refined, you can use the meat fragrance pill to attract Pixiu to eat. The meat incense pill is so fragrant, Pixiu must not be able to stand the temptation of the smell of the meat incense pill. Zhao Zheng explained quickly, with a bright smile on his face as he spoke.

"That's right! If there is a meat fragrant pill, it will definitely make Pixiu open his mouth to eat! Le didn't know that he suddenly realized, and slapped his palms heavily.

"Pixiu hasn't eaten or drunk for several days, if it drags on any longer, something must happen, without further ado, I'll go to the Jade Hall Master to discuss this matter and ask her to help study the refining method of Meat Xiangdan." Zhao Zheng hurriedly stood up, said goodbye to Le Zhi, and walked quickly to the courtyard gate.

This matter is not a trivial matter, if you can cultivate a Pixiu, it will also be beneficial to the Taishan faction. Le Bu hurriedly followed, claiming to go over to help together.

The old man and the young knocked on the courtyard door of Leng Xiangju together, found Yu Ling'er who was alchemizing, and said about it.

Yu Ling'er originally wanted to study the next pill to be the Tongqi Dan, but after listening to the words of the two, she nodded, changed her mind, and decided to study the meat incense pill instead.

The three of them spread the prescription on the table, studied the medicinal materials recorded on it, and pondered the refining method. There are many people who are easy to do, and Yu Ling'er and Le Bu studied this prescription together with the two alchemy masters, and soon studied some eyebrows. Le didn't know how to prepare a few medicinal herbs and immediately tried them.

In contrast, the Meat Xiangdan requires fewer medicinal materials than the Jade Muscle Ointment, which reduces the difficulty of refining to a certain extent. After a whole day of trying, everyone successfully refined the semi-finished meat Xiangdan, but there is still a line of distance from the finished product, and there are some differences in fragrance.

Zhao Zheng had the mentality of trying it out, mashed the half-finished meat fragrant pill, mixed it with milk and tender bamboo, and served it to Ah Bao to eat.

After Ah Bao smelled the fragrance, his nose moved and bleated twice, but he still insisted on refusing to go over, and still curled up in the corner.

Zhao Zheng was slightly disappointed, left the food in place, turned around and returned to Leng Xiangju, and continued to study the refining method of meat incense pill. At this time, it was already early, and Le didn't know that he was entangled in important matters, so he left here under the pretext of leaving. In this way, Zhao Zheng and Yu Ling'er were left in the alchemy room.

Zhao Zheng didn't want to delay Yu Ling'er's rest for his own affairs, so he took the initiative to say: "Master Yutang, it's not too early, you can also go back to the house to rest." Just leave me alone here to study. ”

"How can I sleep if I leave such a big living person like you to ping pong in the alchemy room?" Yu Ling'er said lightly.

"Since that's the case, then I'll take the medicinal herbs back to my Chaoyang Ju to study it." Zhao Zheng has a copy of the alchemy room with him, and he is not afraid of being stumped by this.

"You don't have an alchemy furnace in Chaoyang Curie, what do you study?" Yu Ling'er shook her head, "Okay, don't be verbose, continue to study the alchemy method with me." Help people to the end, send the Buddha to the west, since I promised to help you research the refining method of meat incense pill, I have to help all the way to the end. Besides, I don't want that little Pixiu to starve to death, that little thing looks weird and pitiful. ”

"The Jade Hall Master used to say that he was hard-hearted, and judging from this incident, you are still very kind." Zhao Zheng smiled.

Yu Ling'er didn't seem to like to listen to such words, raised her thin eyebrows, glared at Zhao Zheng and said, "Don't talk nonsense, if you say this kind of thing again, I won't care about this matter." ”

"Okay, okay, count me too much, don't be surprised by the Jade Hall Master, let's continue to study." Zhao Zheng hurriedly changed his words.

With someone like Yu Ling'er, it seems that he can only talk about business, and he can't talk about half a word of gossip. After that, Zhao Zheng controlled his mouth, no longer spoke much, and concentrated on studying the refining method of meat incense pills.

Time passed quietly, and the bright moon sank to the west, and the east immediately turned white. In the early morning of this black and white handover, there was finally a charming aroma in the alchemy room, not to mention beasts, even people would move their index fingers and appetite when they smelled this aroma.

"It worked! It worked! Zhao Zheng cheered in the alchemy room and held the hot elixir high above the top. This pill is pitted, showing a fleshy red color, exuding a rich meaty aroma, like a meatball. This pill is a qualified meat incense pill!

Zhao Zheng was anxious to let Ah Bao eat, and after getting the finished meat incense pill, he immediately said goodbye to Yu Ling'er, and ran back to Chaoyang Ju with the meat fragrance pill in his hand, not daring to delay for a moment. When he entered the courtyard, he immediately rushed into the kitchen and took out the milk and other food that had been prepared. With a little force in his hand, he crushed the meat incense pill, mixed it into the food, and then brought it to the edge of the cage and stuffed it along the opening below.

The rich aroma wafted around, wafting to the corner, and Po, who was resting, smelled the aroma, and immediately rumbling from his hungry stomach. It slowly opened its eyes, peeked at the side of the cage, first looked at Zhao Zheng, then looked at the plates, hesitated for a long time, but after all, it couldn't resist the aroma of the meat incense, slowly climbed to the side of the plate, opened its mouth and licked the plate of milk.

Everything is difficult at the beginning, and once things start, the rest is much easier. Po drank more and more, and soon drank the whole plate of milk, and then targeted the tender bamboo and other foods, launched an attack on them, and began to gobble them up. From this, it seems that it has already been weaned and can eat other foods.

"Whew, you're finally eating." Seeing this scene, Zhao Zheng breathed a sigh of relief and smiled. Watching Po eat, he was really more fragrant than eating himself. (To be continued.) )
