Chapter 335: The Spirit of the Jungle (35)
Seeing that the electric rays of the thickness of the bucket instantly roasted the middle-aged man and woman tied to the iron rod into a pair of human-shaped charcoal emitting misty green smoke, the sergeant was suddenly terrified, straightened his shoulders, and desperately dragged back the upper arm that was chained to the iron rod.
However, the sergeant forgot that at this moment he was tied to four iron rods that were deeply planted in the earth, and all four limbs were dragged by the chains in different directions.
Besides, the iron chain made of fine iron is very strong, how can it be said that it can be broken by dragging?
When it was too late, the 'crackling' explosion of lightning only turned slightly around the charred corpses of middle-aged men and women, and then along the iron chain wrapped around the iron rod, they rushed towards the sergeant!
Extremely frightened, the sergeant only felt that the bear hair on his body was pressing towards the sky one by one, and as soon as he shouted "my life is over", his eyes were black and he fainted.
I don't know how long it took for the fainting priest to wake up from the darkness.
The first thing he did when he regained consciousness was to open his eyes to see if he was still alive.
Who knew that the eyelid had just been raised, and before the light could reach his eyes, the sergeant felt as if someone had cut countless small wounds with a sharp blade on his body, and as long as he moved his body slightly, every inch of skin and fur would be filled with pain like a torn wound.
The pain that eroded into the bones immediately caused the priest to open his mouth and wail frantically...... "Ah"!
As soon as he shouted, the sergeant felt a pile of soft and fresh young leaves suddenly 'hand' to his mouth.
At the same time, Xu Xuzheng's voice also sounded on the side of the sergeant's head: "Hurry up and open your mouth!" The teacher has carved a spell on your whole body to release the thunder fire poison flame, so as to ensure that your five internal organs will not be scorched into a ball of charcoal by the thunder fire. If you can survive the power of this day's lightning strike, you have already passed the first pass of crossing the tribulation and becoming an immortal. If you don't want to die, then quickly devour the leaves that the teacher fed you! ”
Under Xu Xuzheng's continuous urging, the sergeant closed his eyes, endured the pain that went straight to the bone marrow, opened his big mouth, and swallowed the leaves that the former fed to his mouth one after another.
Strange to say, this first bite of leaves in his stomach, the sergeant obviously felt that the pain in his body was a little weaker, and he didn't hesitate at all, opened his mouth and bit a large ball of young leaves, and he couldn't chew it.
After that, as if he was crazy from hunger, the sergeant opened his mouth one after another and swallowed several handfuls of leaves, finally suppressing the pain transmitted from the wound a little, and then stopped and gasped: "Master? It hurts, it hurts me! ”
Seeing that the sergeant could actually spit out a complete sentence, Xu Xuzheng, who was squatting on the side of his head and feeding diligently, was obviously shocked by the former's incomparable recovery speed, and immediately said in surprise: "It is less than half an hour before you wake up, and you can actually speak?" I think that the old man lay in the puddle and gnawed on dry noodles and cakes for most of the day before he had the strength to say the first complete sentence. ”
As soon as the words fell, there was a sound of rubbing between the corners of the clothes in the ears of the sergeant, as if Xu Xuzheng was hurrying around the puddle where the former was lying, so as to inspect the wounds on the sergeant's body.
Before the sergeant could ask about his injury, Xu Xuzheng let out an excited exclamation: "It's amazing, it's incredible!" These wounds were cut by our own hands, and they were deep under the skin everywhere! obviously looked like he was bleeding non-stop, but in a blink of an eye, all the scabs were scabbed, and there were still a few wounds that still scabbed out and grew new flesh? Congratulations to the apprentice, congratulations to the apprentice, you have achieved great things. ”
Xu Xuzheng, who couldn't hold back the excitement in his heart, first walked around and rubbed his palms, but as soon as he took two steps, he squatted beside the sergeant with his eyes shining, rubbing the fur on the sergeant's body with his hands, and his mouth was full of admiration.
"I said you're not easy! Not only can he escape a small life in the desperate situation of the deadly lightning strike, but he also gets a blessing in disguise, and he has the ability to heal a knife wound immediately! ”
Xu was carried away by the excitement of the moment, Xu Xuzheng actually confessed to the sergeant that the things he needed to guide the thunder normally of the 'Five Dragons Thunder Array' were nothing more than the drooping cocks and heel dogs, and the pair of middle-aged men and women who turned into charcoal were just the addition of his temporary intentions.
After commanding the sergeant to dig a pit for a spring at the top of Manglongling Mountain, Xu Xuzheng hurriedly went down the mountain, all the way to find a pot town shop where ironsmiths lived, and it was also good for the people of the central government to build an iron chain with the head of the beast that laid out the 'Five Dragons Thunder Array'.
Who knew that when they arrived at the foot of the mountain, they found four or five town shops one after another, but either there were no blacksmiths at all, or the skills of the ironsmiths were low, and they could only deal with the clumsy farm tools such as making climbing plows.
As soon as these people heard that the iron rod ordered by Xu Xuzheng actually had to dig such and such grooves, they immediately shook their heads and waved their hands, and kept rushing at the latter to make amends, so that they could find another skill.
Xu Xuzheng, who found that he was afraid that he would be in the vicinity, gritted his teeth and stomped his feet, raised his legs and went to Shengjing (now Shenyang), 800 miles away, and finally found a Seiko shop that could make utensils according to his own requirements in the most prosperous capital outside the Guan.
During the period of waiting for the craftsman to make iron tools according to the drawing, Xu Xuzheng disguised himself as a merchant walking the streets and alleys.
Relying on those worthless needles and threads, Xu Xuzheng quickly found out the whereabouts of the drooping chicken and the anti-heel dog from the mouth of the mother-in-law who came to buy daily groceries.
As the saying goes, but all supernatural things, there must be supernatural behaviors between eating and drinking. This drooping chicken is the only phoenix in ten thousand, if this chicken crows, the surrounding chickens and birds will never dare to echo it, even if it is raising its neck and crying in the morning, it will kill immediately.
In the same way, the anti-heel dog is also the king of dogs, and if ordinary dogs see it, they immediately have to kneel respectfully in front of it and wag their tails to please them.
Ordinary people may not see the benefits of this drooping chicken and anti-heel dog, but in this world, there are all the way to find rare birds and beasts from ordinary livestock and poultry, and make good use of their strengths, called 'Xiangbao'.
On the way to Guanwai, Steward Wang talked to Yang Congxun and Hu San about the ancient times from time to time, and its content is nothing more than the local people's livelihood in the Northeast.
About ten years ago, Steward Wang followed Ma Laoke to sell goods outside the customs for the third time.
On that day, they encountered an autumn rain on their way, and because the road was muddy and difficult to walk, they could not reach their scheduled hotel before dark, so they had to find someone else to rest halfway.
That time, the inn where the king steward and they stayed last was a cat shop.
