A nest of snakes and rats

Before Mu Xun finished speaking, Village Chief Cao had already crawled into the ice nest, and Mu Xun reminded on the side: "Be careful, I don't know what the situation is here." Don't be reckless, keep the egg first. ”

Village Chief Cao just nodded and slid down the slope directly into the ice nest. Touching the surface of the water with my hand, I thought it was extremely cold, but I didn't expect it to be gentle and warm. Village Chief Cao was very happy and surprised, the water was still warm in such a cold place. Village Chief Cao quickly took off his shoes and directly inserted his feet into the water, feeling comfortable. Village Chief Cao said with a smile below: "Lao Mu, you are here!" The water is good, lukewarm, and very comfortable. This water is really good, you say that you can live forever, I believe it. ”

Village Chief Cao said as he washed his feet with the water in the ice nest, rubbing his big feet with his hands, and Village Chief Cao washed them very carefully in the water. Even the toe seam was picked, and the more Village Chief Cao washed, the happier he became.

Mu Xun looked anxious on the top, and urged anxiously: "Lao Cao, hurry up, don't waste such a little water." ”

As soon as Mu Xun said that Village Chief Cao reacted, "Look, I forgot, this water is too popular." Don't waste this water. Village Chief Cao took out the marching kettle, unscrewed the cap of the bottle, and wanted to pour it directly. Thinking about it, it is not good to mix these two kinds of water, and Village Chief Cao shook the kettle and felt that there was not much water. Don't waste it, Village Chief Cao drank it directly, and the small half pot of water was dried in one gulp. After drinking the water, Village Chief Cao did not slack off, and directly put the marching kettle at his feet and began to pour water.

Mu Xun was disgusting while watching, and complained while watching. Village Chief Cao heard it below and explained with a smile: "It's okay, it's okay, I don't dislike myself." ”

"Stupid, stupid." Mu Xun simply scolded Village Chief Cao above.

Village Chief Cao was unimpressed, and still groped forward. Fish out two dragon eggs in the water and hold them in your hands. It quickly loaded into the prepared container and immediately ran out of the water. I was halfway through the run before I felt the soles of my feet cold to the bone. Village Chief Cao found out that he was not wearing shoes, and Village Chief Cao's clumsy movements made Mu Xun helpless.

When Village Chief Cao came up safely, Mu Xun let go of this unstable heart. Without waiting for Village Chief Cao to take a breath, Mu Xun said earnestly: "This egg has been taken, let's discuss how to deal with that worldly master." ”

"You're using me like a machine, aren't you?" Village Chief Cao said beautifully: "No matter who you kill next, you will do it yourself." I can't do it, I'll keep these two eggs now, I don't want to ask anything else. ”

When Village Chief Cao said this, Mu Xun was also speechless. Mu Xun said helplessly: "If you don't chase it, we can't meet again." met this little old man, who seems to be a cold-hearted guy. ”

"Don't worry." Village Chief Cao said comfortingly: "Lao Mu, we have known each other for more than 100 years. You can rest assured that my character is absolutely fine. This cave is so messy, we are also familiar with the environment here, and it is basically impossible to meet the two of them. It's just that I met it, don't worry, my legs and feet are definitely better than your old ones. I used to have an old injury on my foot, but now it's good to soak in this water. If I really meet him, you drag the old man for me, and I will definitely avenge you after I get out. ”

"You're unloading the mill and killing the donkey." Mu Xun smiled and said, "Lao Cao, look at the egg you give me." I also look at it, and it makes me rare. It's still a long way from the cave, and I'll help you share a little of the weight. ”

"No, you don't." Village Chief Cao said calmly: "It's okay, I'm okay with this weight." ”

Mu Xun also wanted to say and see, "What else is ink, there is nothing to appreciate." "Village Chief Cao raised his leg and left. Ignore the slow and leisurely Mu Xun. Seeing that Village Chief Cao was talking angrily, Mu Xun had no way to follow behind.

Village Chief Cao said as he walked in front: "Go out early, there will always be some danger when you go around in this hole." The eggs are all taken, and we will divide them equally when we go out. Okay, if you share it equally, I can afford you, and you owe it to our relationship before, or I'll swallow all these two eggs. ”

"Are you saying I have very little credit?" Mu Xun asked softly in the back.

"Of course," replied in the affirmative.

"Of course." Mu Xun said angrily: "If it weren't for my corpse pill, you would have died long ago." Without the corpse pill, can you hide from the demons and monsters behind you? Without my elixir, you would have become a meal for these monsters. ”

"Break the medicine!" Village Chief Cao said disdainfully: "Without my golden bullet, it would be in vain for you to take a pound of medicine." ”

"It's about eating." Mu Xun said angrily: "These four pills, you know how many boys and girls I have used to refine them, and I have used 360 pairs. How many years did it take to refine it? 30 years, which is 30 years, 30 years can not cease fire, must be tormented with a simmer, that hard work is much more difficult than you train 800 people. ”

"Less." Village Chief Cao said disdainfully in front: "How many boys and girls are still used, and there are 360 pairs." Who are you fooling, I don't know how you came to be this corpse pill? ”

"Why are you still questioning me?" Mu Xun retorted angrily.

"Don't think I don't know that." Village Chief Cao said ostentatiously: "It's not for nothing that I have been spying on you, I still have a small success with these alchemy points." After Village Chief Cao finished speaking, he took out a sandalwood box from his bag. Carefully opened the sandalwood box with both hands, and took out a golden pill with one hand. Village Chief Cao shook his hand in front of Mu Xun's eyes.

"See." Village Chief Cao held the pill between his fingers and said, "Look, you have been watching carefully." You didn't succeed in Xiao Jindan, but I did. ”

Hehe, Mu Xun looked at Xiao Jindan and smiled greedily. Mu Xun said approvingly: "I really didn't see it, Lao Cao also began to lose his mind." How do you succeed in refining this kind of elixir, you really haven't seen it for three days, and you should be impressed. ”

"I've rewarded you." Village Chief Cao said with an arrogant face: "This thing is about ten catties at home, you eat it first, and save me from dragging my feet." Mend your old arms and feet. It's not that I look down on you, you can hide from me about stealing corpses in the middle of the night every day, how you dig the ground, how you steal the land are all under my surveillance. There are also 360 pairs of boys and girls, fooling whom. The number of 300 people is almost enough, and 360 is too mysterious. Don't talk about boys and girls. If you can unify the ages of the corpses, I admire you. ”

Elder Cao laughed loudly at Mu Xun, as if the voice was deliberately heard by people all over the world. Mu Xun just smiled and couldn't refute anything. Because Village Chief Cao said that every place was said at the joint, Mu Xun said that Village Chief Cao was clear. This one is so embarrassing, I wanted to brag about it. I didn't expect to let the family directly reveal the bottom of the family, at this time, Mu Xun's face was like a traffic light, changing color back and forth, and Village Chief Cao didn't see it and ignored Mu Xungao's displeasure, Mu Xun didn't want to be known, and Village Chief Cao deliberately said something. I can't avoid it, and Mu Xun really has no choice but to listen.

Village Chief Cao also felt that it was not too interesting to always say Mu Xun, so he directly changed his words and began to brag about himself, and asked ostentatiously: "How do you feel after eating Xiaojin Dan?" This is a real refining, and this effort has taken a lot of effort. ”

When Village Chief Cao saw that Mu Xun was still holding the little golden pill in his hand, he said angrily: "You have tasted it, and you are afraid that I will harm you, if you don't eat it, you will return me." Village Chief Cao said as he reached out to grab it.

"You're so stingy." Mu Xun reluctantly said with his hand: "Am I reluctant to eat such a good thing, this is not something you can refine if you have money." It's a place of good fortune, can't I think of Lao Cao, your blessed fate is very deep. ”

"You taste it." Village Chief Cao said with a grin.

"It's a bit reluctant." Mu Xun smiled and swallowed Xiao Jindan as soon as he ate it. Very satisfied, nodded again and again and said, "Sure enough, it's really Xiao Jindan." My blessing is also full of depth, this taste is very refreshing, this warm feeling, it is also very comfortable, and I feel that this whole body is like a reconstruction. It's just young and energetic, I can't imagine that your old Cao Zhenren doesn't show up. ”

Mu Xun said even more flatteringly: "I can't imagine that in the past few decades, your alchemy has not been a small success, but a big success." Only those who have great achievements can get the little golden pill, and I am really out of reach. Ashamed, ashamed. Dare to ask Brother Cao, what are the new developments in your alchemy? Share a thing or two with me. ”

Village Chief Cao just laughed mysteriously, and Mu Xun could see that it was ridicule and ridicule from Village Chief Cao's eyes.

Mu Xun could only ask with a pleasant face: "If there is anything good, share it, I am nothing more than a frog at the bottom of a well." Although alchemy is not a great success, at least these equipment are very advanced. ”

"Pull it down." Village Chief Cao said even more mockingly: "Just your alchemy equipment is advanced? It is nothing more than changing the ancient coal burning to electricity, and such a small change can be called advanced. If I directly install a nuclear reactor, should it be regarded as UFO black technology, can you Muxun not brag in front of me What are you professional, you are technologically advanced, are you called technology? ”

"It's not that I look down on you." Village Chief Cao chuckled and said, "I really didn't treat you as a human being, just the stove you built." At first glance, you can tell that it is the hand of a layman, and you don't know what a cycle is and what is natural complementarity. The alchemy furnace you built is not as advanced as my fire pit furnace. Why you don't achieve anything, it's because your method hehe, hey, it's not right. ”

Village Chief Cao seemed to have opened the electric door, and when he was interrogated by Mu about alchemy, he said a lot, and his speaking speed increased significantly. Village Chief Cao continued to say with great interest: "Chinese alchemy is different from Western alchemy, and there are similarities and differences between the two. What is the emphasis on Chinese style, it is the cycle of the five elements, which is mainly interdependent on yin and yang. You only want to be fast, focus on the accuracy of the feeding, and ignore the changes in itself. This alchemy is like fermentation, it can't be fast, it's not okay to be slow, it's not okay to be more, it's not okay to be less, it's not urgent. The book says that it will become a Dan in 30 years and a Dan in 1,000 years, which is definitely not groundless, it has his theoretical basis. ”

Although Village Chief Cao said a few words very easily, it was like thunder in Mu Xun's ears. Mu Xun listened to the content of each word of Village Chief Cao word by word, and compared the bottlenecks he encountered in alchemy. Mu Xun quickly understood the mystery, and with a few simple words, Village Chief Cao pointed out all the mistakes encountered by Mu Xun during his alchemy.
