Chapter Seventy-Eight: Quarrying Papers
Shu Wangchun went to guard the barracks to treat the cold poison for Ergou's daughter (Qian'er), and all the three-headed dogs of hell came to watch. After all, almost half of the three-headed dog family will have cold poison patients, and the dog king is naturally difficult to make exceptions, and the huge family members have long made the dog king feel alive.
After this period of observation, Shu Wangchun found that the cold poison was closely related to the habits of the three-headed dog of hell.
First of all, the three-headed dogs rarely have time to eat hot food, and their strict military discipline leads to all dogs spending almost all their time on guarding the cracks in the passage. Every time the time for eating is pitiful, the military camp follows the way of the Grim Reaper General Xingtian Marching, eating cold food every day, not close to fireworks. But what they didn't know was that it was Xingtian's attempt to prevent revealing their location and protect their safety, and they blindly followed.
The second is the difficult conditions of the three-headed dogs, which cause them to sleep only on wooden planks. Although the formwork can prevent moisture, the more so, the more cold the wooden board placed on the ground for a long time, and the cold poison also takes the opportunity to enter their body through the wooden board. The reason why there are few attacks in the military camp is because of their own cultivation to resist the onset of cold poison, but the old and young women and children in the family are not spared.
Third, and most critically, That's what canine bodies are all about. Because they are not afraid of the cold, they can lie on the ice sheet for a month, which is a common thing. But they are afraid of the heat, and as long as the heat comes in, they will crawl directly on the ground. In this way, the cold poison enters the body faster under the transpiration of the hot air, and when the weather is cold, they will be in pain and suffer from the cold poison.
After listening to Shu Wangchun's explanation, the dog king roughly understood the reason why the cold poison spread wildly among the three-headed dogs of hell, but it could not be cured.
Thinking back to the bone coins spent in the hands of those quacks for thousands of years, the dog king is angry.
said: "Over the years, we have been controlled by others everywhere, and in order to cure the disease, we are willing to do what kind of dirty work our brothers are willing to do." Although I turned a blind eye, I couldn't help but feel bad when I saw my comrades-in-arms and my brothers like this. The ghost doctor can ask everyone present, who has not helped those quacks dig out the huts, who has not helped them look after their homes, and who has not seen them as real guards. I can't talk about the cold eyes and bullying I suffered for three days and three nights. ”
The ghost doctor smiled and said, "Actually, you have misunderstood them, and this method is only to alleviate them. ”
The dog king whispered: "It's good to be able to alleviate it, and if we can know the cause, we can think of a solution." But for now, I have a small number of bone coins, and it would be a big expense to buy a large number of stones to support the planks. And if it is supported by wooden planks, it seems that it costs more bone coins. ”
For a while, the dog king was stumped in front of Shu Wangchun. Ergou is now a veritable partial general, and said in the ear of the dog king: "It's not difficult at this time, has the general forgotten the crack in the passage we guard, where the stones are almost piled up, as long as you report to the Emperor Xudu, it shouldn't be difficult to take some of it for our accommodation." ”
Phoenix, who had already followed Shu Wangchun to come, was bent on stealing the elixir that poisoned the Yellow Dragon, so he hid behind the Dog King. Hearing Ergou's words, Phoenix said directly and arrogantly: "What should I do, isn't it just some stones, you don't need to report it, I'll be in charge, you can use it as you like." ”
The dog king coughed and said, "You little girl, even if you eavesdrop on us, you dare to talk so loudly, and you are not afraid of the wind flashing your tongue." Besides, what qualifications do you have?"
Ergou also leaned next to the phoenix and said: "Okay, I know you can do it, but this is not the time to joke, I advise you not to make this kind of play, go and find other brothers to play, we thank you for your kindness." ”
Shu Wangchun glanced at the phoenix, then at the dog king and the second dog, for unknown reasons. Continuing with his previous words, he said: "The general doesn't need to be in a hurry, this matter is not in a hurry, and I have thought of a good way." In addition to the phoenix, there are materials that can cure diseases, even if the Emperor Xudu is here, there is nothing to be done. ”
The dog king didn't know why, and pondered in his heart: "When the phoenix didn't come just now, Shu Wangchun said clearly, it will take at least three years for the cold poison to be expelled. Now he said that he had thought of a way. Could it be that it has something to do with the phoenix in front of you?"
Hurriedly said to Phoenix: "Okay, as long as you can do what you said, I and my guard camp are places for you to come and play at will, and no one will stop you." ”
The phoenix said, "Isn't it just a few broken stones?
After saying that, the phoenix took out the phoenix jade pendant given by the king of Hades, and immediately the dog king cried. Everyone knows that Hades is the hall master of the front hall, and the stones there are the most in the entire dark realm, and if Hades can speak, it will not be a problem. And the king of Hades was able to give his personal jade pendant to the phoenix, which must have a lot to do with it.
The phoenix said: "Don't regret it, King Dog, I'll go and ask Uncle Luo for the paperwork for quarrying, in that case, this guard camp will be my second home." ”
Shu Wangchun said: "You originally said stone, I think the general wants to use stone to support the plank." But I have a better way, which is to dig a big pit in the ground and build it with stones, so that the fire will be burned below to ward off the cold, and the brothers will sleep on it, and as long as the fire continues all year round, the cold poison will never attack again. ”
The dog king smiled and said, "I see, isn't this the earthen kang we made when we were marching? Why didn't I think of that?"
Ergou said beside him: "King, how can you think of this kind of thing, your heart is all day long about how to guard the passage, and other things, I'm afraid that even a three-year-old child is more transparent than you." ”
The ghost doctor smiled and said, "What does General Bi mean by me, am I a three-year-old child?"
Ergou hurriedly explained: "Where is it, I just said it casually. ”
Shu Wangchun said: "I understand, I understand. I almost forgot to get down to business with this nonsense with you. When the phoenix came just now, I thought of a way to treat the cold poison, in fact, it is very simple, as long as the phoenix is willing, I am afraid that even if it is a serious cold poison, it will no longer be a problem. ”
The dog king said: "Please ask the ghost doctor to make it clear, my head really doesn't think about these things." After speaking, he slapped his head several times in a row, and said with a smile.
Shu Wangchun said: "It's better to keep this matter secret. I will tell you quietly for the time being, but do not make a noise, or you will be in trouble and will never be at peace. ”
After listening to Shu Wangchun's words, Ergou and the Dog King immediately understood the meaning, and they couldn't help laughing.
When the phoenix came back, the dog king and the second dog took the paperwork and looked at it, and it was really genuine. However, the dog king said: "Since the Phoenix girl has helped us so much, I will thank you on behalf of everyone for letting you ride on my body and walk a few laps in the barracks, they will inevitably take out their most precious things and exchange them with you, you only need to give them one fire feather each, what do you think?"
Phoenix agreed without thinking about it, and thought in his heart: "If you can ride on the general's body, it will be a face-saving thing if you say it." Isn't it just a few fire feathers? The last time I took off my feather coat, I saved tens of thousands of them, which was a good deal. ”
In this way, the phoenix rode around the dog king a few times, feeling dissatisfied, and then the second general, the third general, and the second dog. are willing to carry the phoenix to wander in the barracks, and the three-headed dog of hell is also very bold to give the phoenix the dog yellow that he has kept for a long time. Of course, the phoenix knows the preciousness of the dog yellow, not to mention that it is difficult to find a piece of gold.
He thought to himself: "But now, there are almost more than 3,000 yuan. And what I paid for it was just some useless fire feathers. If this is taken out and sold, he will be the richest person in the underworld, thinking of this, the phoenix is about to jump up excitedly, and his eyebrows are smiling. ”
All the guards got the fire feathers they needed, and their hearts were full of gratitude. thanked them one after another and sent the phoenix away. And the phoenix took care of those cumbersome etiquette, and ran all the way to Xi Yang and Huang Long, showing off his great achievements and endless wealth.
