224. Liu Po
Don't charge money? What's that?
Looking at the old woman's sharp eyes, I couldn't help but shrink back.
This old thing, don't you want me to pay it back with my strong body?
At this time, the guests at the tables next to me had already finished their soup, knocked lightly on the table, and said, "Liu Po, settle the bill." ”
The old woman looked away from staring at me, took out a silver rod scale from her bosom, and walked in front of the guests.
"You used a small bowl of broth and paid the price of three or two." The old woman said.
The guest nodded, and then made a gesture that surprised me.
He covered his chest with his hands, and his throat began to retch.
After a while, he vomited out a small piece of something as crystal clear as jade, and spit it on the tray of rod scales in the hand of the Liu Po.
Liu Po passed the scales and said that it was three more dollars.
"That's it, don't worry about it, Liu Po, you have been guarding 'Ruizhi' in this Iron Brake Mountain for so many years, which is convenient for many of our Taoist friends, it's not easy." The guest said.
Liu Po insisted on returning the extra three-dollar jade to the guest, saying that it was necessary to be principled in doing business.
"What do they pay for? Is the weight of three coins still so careful? "I wondered.
At this time, the other guests also paid one after another, and then they all said goodbye to Liu Po very politely, saying that they would come back next spring.
"You won't use it next spring, the broth boiled by the 'Ruizhi' cut this year has just been drunk by that little brother, and you can also tell other Taoist friends, I won't open next spring, and if you want to drink soup, you will have to wait until next winter." That Liu Po said.
After the guests left, Liu Po took the silver rod scale and walked tremblingly in front of me.
"You drank...... There are a total of twelve large sea bowls, and I drank my soup pot directly to the bottom, and I had to pay a total of eight catties and seven taels. Liu Po said.
"Eight pounds and seven taels what?" I asked.
That Liu Po seemed to be angry, and the folds on her face suddenly trembled.
"Don't play dumb! Boy, do you have the guts to drink so much soup? Don't you want to repay your debts? ”
With a bitter face, I reached out and touched my upper and lower pockets to see if there was anything of value that I could pledge.
The water-avoiding sword seems to have been lost at Liu De's house, but even if I carry it with me, it is useless, and the worn-out bronze sword will not make people feel that it is valuable.
Now all I have on my body is the ghost golden sheep ink bucket and the soft hedgehog armor of the immortal clothes I wear closely.
"I'll mortgage these two things to you, okay? These are treasures and are worth a lot of money! "I looked at the Liu Po.
When Liu Po heard this, she was completely angry, and she crossed her waist and scolded me: "You kid, don't you know how precious 'Ruizhi' is?" I don't even want this broken ink fountain to give it away, the hedgehog clothes of the Bai family are worth a little money, but they are only enough for the price of a bowl on top! ”
Immediately, the Liu Po grabbed me by the collar and told me to stop playing tricks, and if I didn't pay the bill, she would eat me alive!
"You inquire on this Iron Brake Mountain, for more than 800 years, who dares to eat overlord meals here with me?" Liu Po said in a fierce tone.
"You let go of me first, and you have something to say." I struggled to pull Liu Po's hand away.
But Liu Po's strength was very strong, not only did she not let go, but she also raised her little feet and kicked my crotch one after another.
I didn't expect that this dead old woman would be so vicious, and she would use such a cruel "cut off the feet of children and grandchildren" as soon as she came up!
And out of reason, I was embarrassed to do something to such an old man, so I could only cover my crotch with my hands and retreat again and again.
In this way, a young man who tried to eat the overlord's meal had a fierce physical conflict with the fierce stall owner and the old woman! Fortunately, there was no one around, otherwise I would have lost someone!
At this moment, my body, which had been retreating, suddenly hit the big pot of boiling soup.
I knocked over the cauldron, and the little broth left in the pot spilled on the floor.
"Oops! Why is it that even Ruizhi meat has been ruined! The willow woman shouted at the top of her voice.
I turned my head to look at the scene on the ground, and all of a sudden, my stomach churned, and I wanted to bend over and vomit!
What was boiling in the soup pot was actually three white and chubby babies!
"What the fuck I actually drank human broth just now." I was on the verge of collapse.
And that Liu Po is now completely fat.
"I want all your immortal bones to pay for it!"
Immediately, the Liu Po stretched out her hand and slapped it heavily on my chest.
Immediately, Liu Po's face suddenly turned green.
"You...... How are you a human being? ”
"Huh?" I'm also confused.
"Still a normal human! Then how could you possibly have fairy bones? And what do I use to pay for my broth? "That Liu Po roared fiercely.
"Fairy bones? Broth? My eyes widened.
I seem to have a rough idea of what the situation is now.
Legend has it that in the black soil of the northeast, after the animal wild immortals cultivate into positive fruits, they will give birth to fairy bones in their bodies, which are also the source of their strength, which is equivalent to the "inner dan" of spirits.
I turned my head and looked at the three chubby white babies spilling out of the soup pot.
"I ...... I want to ask, are these three things cut from the top of the red lingzhi...... Sesame meat? I stammered and asked the woman.
That Liu Po nodded fiercely.
"It's over, the price of this overlord meal...... It's a bit big. The cold sweat on my forehead suddenly fell.
Uncle told me about the origin of this supreme heaven and earth treasure red lingzhi before.
When he went to Changbai Mountain to dig a mallet, when he entered the mountain with a group of mallet guests, he passed through the most mysterious holy mountain in the Changbai Mountain Range, "Jade Girl Peak", and after a period of rest, the uncle was raising his eyes to look at the majestic scene of Jade Girl Peak, but he saw that there was an incomparably huge mushroom at the cliff of the peak.
At that time, the uncle thought that he was dazzled, the mountain face was full of bare rock walls, no grass and no trees, covered by ice and snow all year round, how could he grow mushrooms?
He was stunned, narrowed his eyes and looked again, only to see that it was not a mushroom, but a thousand-year-old Ganoderma lucidum, which could be as big as a sea bowl and red as blood.
Looking down at the mountain, the trembling thousand-year-old Ganoderma lucidum is like a red cloud on the wall!
According to legend, the Ganoderma lucidum on the mountain outside the Guan, according to the five colors should be five elements, in turn is red, green, black, purple, yellow, among which the red is the treasure, the red Ganoderma lucidum only grows on the cliff of the deep mountains and poor valleys, by the aura of heaven and earth, the essence of the sun and the moon, because of Rui, so called "Ruizhi" Uncle saw this red Ganoderma lucidum so big, it is rare in the rare, it is estimated that mortals as long as they eat it, they can live forever!
The uncle was immediately shocked, beckoning to let the "head" hurry up and go to see, but they didn't expect that they had not yet entered the mountain, and they found such a superb "mallet", such an ancient and peerless treasure, dug out and sold for money, and the Forbidden City in the capital was not allowed to be bought?
He smiled and said that this kind of world-conquering thing was not something that mortals could touch at all, and he asked the uncle to fix his eyes again to see what else was next to the thousand-year-old Ganoderma lucidum.
Uncle stared wide, seeing that less than five meters away from the thousand-year-old Ganoderma lucidum, there was a big black hole, and from the entrance of the cave, a black mist kept emitting, and he didn't know what was inside.
At this time, there were just a few geese in the sky, it was the early autumn of September, but it was cold outside, and the geese would fly to the warm south at this time, at this time, the dozen geese were lined up in a "human" shape to sweep across the sky.
But when the wild goose array flew over the face of the mountain, the first few geese suddenly turned over and fell straight down, and the rest of the geese scattered and fled, making a burst of mourning, which was extremely sad.
The uncle's jaw was about to fall, and from the cave on the face of the mountain, an incomparably huge snake head poked out!
The giant snake had earthy yellow scales, eyes as big as gongs, and it was opening its huge mouth wide to inhale into the sky, and the few falling geese were naturally sucked into its stomach and digested into food.
The giant snake estimated that it was because its body was too big to move, so it used this method to hunt, and after swallowing those geese, it stretched out its blood-red two-sided long tongue to lick the thousand-year-old Ganoderma lucidum at the mouth of the cave, and after licking it again and again for a long time, it returned to the cave contentedly, and soon came out to lick for a while.
"The old saying of the mallet outside the gate is that within ten steps of the Lingzhi, there must be an earth dragon watching, you look at the body shape of the earth dragon, there should be no less than five hundred years of Taoism, let's go and get the Lingzhi, is it enough to swallow in one bite?" The man who digs the mallet heads and said to the frightened uncle.
Uncle dispelled his thoughts and continued to move forward with the army.
And the uncle told me about his experience, and I also discussed it with Nameless in the car in the Northeast.
Nameless also said that yes, even if her own body could not be completely classified as a snake, but before she was transformed, she also liked to hide in the cave to guard the treasure, which may be due to the nature of snakes.
And outside the customs, even a lot of snake immortals who have transformed into shapes still like to guard a certain treasure "Ruizhi", which is a treasure material that conquers the world and is created, and at the beginning of spring and winter every year, they cut off a part of "Ruizhi" to cook soup and sell it to other wild immortals, in exchange for "fairy bones", which is used to improve their cultivation, which is a very fast way for snakes to cultivate.
Because snakes are the only ones in the five immortal families who do not have root bones, it is very difficult to cultivate immortal bones, but because they have been close to the ground, it is unique to cultivate aura, it is better to promote their strengths and avoid weaknesses, save the time to cultivate the root bones and serve "Ruizhi", and when the time comes, they will exchange cultivation results with other wild immortals, and the two sides will cooperate for a win-win situation.
I looked at the Liu Po in front of me, no wonder she was surnamed "Liu".
At the same time, I also want to slap myself a few times, I should have found out when I just woke up, after all, this place I am staying in, but the birthplace of Longmen Taoism in the Northeast subway Chashan, on the mountain I met a broth of unknown origin, I actually dared to drink!
However, this "Ruizhi" broth is drunk in the stomach, it must be beneficial and harmless, I don't lose it, but this Liu Po has a big loss!
"Then the current situation, I can't help it, I don't have fairy bones at all, naturally I can't pay your bill, to blame, blame you for not identifying my identity before, just let me drink the soup." I was very cheeky and said that I put all the blame on Na Liu Po.
Liu Po gritted her teeth and looked at me and asked, "Then how did you, a mortal, come to the vicinity of this Eight Treasures Cloud Light Cave?" ”
"This ...... It was a friend who brought me up, anyway, I'm sorry! I still have something to do, so I'll take my leave! I said.
That Liu Po suddenly cried loudly, and lay on the ground, and began to roll, saying that all her hard work for a year was in vain, who should she ask for this loss?
I didn't have time to pay attention to her, so I apologized again, pulled my legs and fled.
But I hadn't gone far before I heard the howling wind behind me and the sound of heavy objects dragging on the ground.
I turned my head and saw a big dark green snake, its eyes like torches and as thick as a rice jar.
"Boy! You don't want to run! Anyway, Ruizhi broth was drunk into your stomach by you, let me eat you! Your account is paid! The serpent spat out the letter.
