Text Chapter 25 Strange Poison Catch Prey
Chen Letian and Sun Zishu slept heartily, and when they woke up, it was already dark. Chen Lotian decided to take advantage of the night to start looking for prey. The two of them were full of food and sleep, and with torches in their hands, they looked up at the moon to discern the direction, and groped their way to the east. To the east is the direction where the hapless rabbit came from.
After walking for about a stick of incense, Chen Letian suddenly raised his hand to signal, and the two of them suddenly stopped and did not move. Listen intently.
"Whew... Drink... Snort..."
"What the hell? Your uncle, the old man's head is up, go to the side! Sleep like a dead pig, it's really a dog..."
The snoring and scolding were heard clearly by Chen Letian and Sun Zishu. The two looked at each other in the dark, and both smiles were on each other's faces. The two of them sat down on the spot, made a fire, and sat in silence, not daring to speak, for fear of disturbing the two prey.
In the second half of the night, Chen Letian took a piece of something from his belt, gestured to Sun Zishu to wait in place, and then he quietly followed the snoring sound and came back after a while. After that, the two of them sat by the fire and went about their own things.
At dawn, the two of them followed the snoring that was still continuous, and found a cave where their prey was hiding.
The two stood guard outside the cave, waiting for their prey to get up. Because it was only the first day, the prey relied on their own cultivation to be high, so they didn't have to hide their whereabouts, and on the seventh day, these prey would do their best to avoid being discovered.
"Good morning, two senior brothers. Chen Letian smiled at the prey that had just come out of the cave.
Eight-character nonsense: "Classmate Chen, your hare roasted well yesterday, what will you eat this morning?"
Chen Letian immediately understood, hurriedly asked Sun Zishu to find something to eat, and arched his hand to the prey: "Don't worry, two senior brothers, breakfast will be ready soon, there is indeed a problem with our rules, with your ability, even if it is to make a fire and cook, we can't track you, why let you eat dry food for seven days?"
Bazi nonsense: "The rules set by Mr. and teachers are always reasonable, let's just abide by them." Hey, I said, how did you dare to talk nonsense to Hu Jiaoxi, it's really strange that Hu Jiaoxi didn't beat you to bed for three months. ”
Chen Letian laughed and said: "Senior brother, Hu Jiaoxi likes me, beating is kissing and scolding is love." Two senior brothers, we will be classmates in the future, you have to help us new classmates. ”
The bald head glared and said, "You haven't finished the test, how dare you be so sure?"
Chen Letian said: "Let me imagine the future, people must have dreams, otherwise what is the difference between them and salted fish..."
Hu Waner said: "You kid has a really slippery mouth, but these words are quite interesting." I heard that you are the commander of the Northern Army, have you seen General Li?"
Chen Letian nodded and said: "I am the commander of the elite forward battalion of the Northern Army, and in the past, I was with the general every day in the army, and I had to listen to the general's teachings every day. ”
"Really, are you bragging?" said the mustache and the bald head at the same time.
Chen Letian said: "If you don't believe it, the next time the general returns to Beijing, you can ask him." ”
"How can we meet the general? Don't talk about it, tell me what it's like in the army?"
Chen Letian sat down casually beside the two of them, thought for a while, and said, "How to say it... It varies from person to person, it mainly depends on your own mentality, if you have a good attitude, you will feel very fulfilling, if you have a bad mentality... I can't tell. Anyway, in general, it's a good place to hone men. ”
After listening to this, the bald head looked up at the sky, and his face was full of yearning.
"Senior brother, to tell you something from the heart, there is nothing to aspire to in the military camp, fighting is a dead man, our death, the death of the enemy, it is not something worth talking about, I only hope that in my lifetime, there is no need to set foot on the battlefield again. Chen Letian patted his bald shoulder and sighed, like an old man who has gone through vicissitudes.
"Breakfast is coming. Sun Zishu was carrying four fish in his hand, and something that looked like green vegetables.
Half an hour later, the fragrant fish breakfast was ready. One fish per person, charred on the outside and tender on the inside, and there are many unknown but fragrant vegetables stuffed in the belly of the fish. The four of them devoured it quickly, burping and boasting that Sun Tzushu's craftsmanship was exquisite, and he could make such a delicious meal with his empty hands, and it was a pity not to go to Yan Gui to be a chef.
The two senior brothers are probably the first time in their lives to eat breakfast like this, and they are very novel. I was surprised to learn that Sun Zishu was not a family of cooks, but just a fast catcher. They grew up to be in their thirties, and they had never even been out of Bianjing City, so they were relatively unfamiliar with the outside world. Sun Zishu patiently explained to them that he was an orphan, so he developed the habit of cooking and eating by himself since he was a child.
Bazi Hu is also an orphan, and he has a deep understanding. After the bald head is famous, it is difficult to understand. However, with Chen Letian by his side, he added fuel and vinegar to Sun Zishu's childhood, and many tragic things. In addition, the bald brother is already more sentimental, and after listening to Sun Zishu's past, he expressed deep sympathy for Sun Zishu, and said that no matter whether he can be admitted to Qingtian Pavilion or not, if he encounters something in the capital in the future, he will find his family to ensure that it will be settled. Sun Zishu thanked him very sincerely.
Talking about the three poles of the sun, the two senior brothers patted their buttocks and stood up. Bazi nonsense: "Thank you two for your hospitality, but let's eat and eat, things have to be done, please forgive me for not being able to release water." ”
"Senior brother, where is this, the exam has to rely on ability, you are willing to release water, we are not willing to accept it. The two senior brothers, please. Chen Letian waved his hand.
The two prey grinned, each with a little foot, and immediately flew into the air and disappeared.
Chen Letian opened his mouth wide and muttered, "This... Just leave, leaving no traces, it's really for nothing for them to eat..."
"What did Mr. Chen say?" came the ethereal voice.
"Uh... I said that the two senior brothers should go well and pay attention to safety. Chen Letian was taken aback.
After losing the prey and having a delicious breakfast, Chen Letian and Sun Zishu returned to the starting point. However, Chen Letian was full of confidence and told Sun Zishu that he made a mark on them last night, and that mark would constantly emit a special smell, which could be smelled within three miles, and would emit a special light, which could be seen within six miles.
Sun Zishu was astonished and said that there was such a thing in the world? Chen Letian whispered that this kind of thing was a special thing in the army, and it was asked for by him from the general when he was leaving. Sun Tzushu believed it. In the end, Chen Letian leaned on Sun Zishu's ear and whispered: "Once this thing is touched, if you don't take the antidote within seven days, your whole body will be extremely itchy, and people who don't have enough concentration will catch themselves to death." Sun Zishu was shocked, but Chen Letian said that it didn't matter, maybe the two senior brothers could detoxify themselves if they cultivated to a high level.
Two miles away. The bald head and the mustache looked at each other, indignant.
"This kid is so shady that he poisoned us, and he brought this? I'm going to report to the teacher and convict him of cheating. Bazihu gritted his teeth and said.
"The rules don't say that if you don't poison, you can't cheat. It can only be said that we were not careful enough and capsized in the gutter. The bald head touched his shiny head, pondered for a moment and said: "But when I was a child, I heard people in the gang say that there seems to be such a thing, once sprinkled on people, it can emit the smell and color for many days, but this requires someone who knows how to smell and see." And I also heard that it takes at least ten years of water grinding kung fu to practice this skill, so Chen Letian is difficult to have been guided by a master since he was a child?"
Bazihu slapped his thigh and said: "That's right, I asked the teacher, this Chen Letian's parents moved from Shu, and these strange things have been produced in Shu since ancient times, that's right, it was definitely his parents who let him practice this martial art since he was a child." ”
The two of you analyzed it sentence by sentence, and finally came to a conclusion: It is a great shame for a cultivator in the Xia Realm to be on the path of ordinary people who have not cultivated the door.
"This revenge is not a gentleman!" the two said hatefully.
In the next few days, Chen Letian took his grandson book around the mountains, Chen Letian relied on his years of military training, but also found a lot of traces of prey, but the point is that it is useless to find prey, the key is not to catch up with others. They are all cultivators in the summer realm, and their ability to control the clouds and fog is as light as a cat catching a mouse.
During this period, the two often met candidates from other teams, and on the fifth day, Chen Letian met the son of the Prime Minister, Li Chengjun.
During the imperial examination, Li Chengjun's royal car kung fu Chen Letian admired it very much, and Li Chengjun, although he was not smiling and always had a straight face, he actually admired Chen Letian very much.
So at lunch that day, there were four people in the two teams. Sun Zishu is still the chef in charge, making a hearty game feast. The four of them chatted while eating.
Li Chengjun has loved martial arts since he was a child, and coupled with his good background, he entered the ranks of cultivators early, and now he is a cultivator who has just entered the spring realm. And Li Chengjun also admitted frankly that his goal is to reach the winter realm before the age of thirty.
Chen Letian was very surprised, he thought that for a person like Li Chengjun who would sooner or later take a career in office, he was not interested in fighting and killing, and the six arts of the gentleman governing the country and the country were his pursuit, but he didn't expect him to have such a deep obsession with cultivation. I couldn't help but be curious: "With all due respect, a person like Li Gongzi, I'm afraid there's no need to spend your mind on cultivation, what you should learn is the way to govern the country." ”
Li Chengjun's trademark cold face, the corners of his mouth twitched, and said: "You're right, but my cultivation will not affect my learning of the way of governing the country, just like my eating will not affect my sleep." Just like you, you can learn from those 10,000 enemies, don't you still want to be a cultivator?"
Chen Letian smiled: "That's what I said." It's not me who blows, if I don't come back for the exam, I will stay under the command of the general for a few more years, at least I can become a cavalry captain, and within ten years, it is okay to be a deputy marshal of the Northern Army. ”
The young man who was in the same team as Lee Sung-jun sneered: "It's too outrageous." ”
Chen Letian glared and said: "It's really not blowing, if you don't believe it, you can write a letter to ask the general when you go back, just write down my original words, if the general doesn't agree, I'll come to see you." ”
The young man scratched his head and said, "How can I write to the general, who doesn't know me." Brother Li, don't you know the general, ask for me next time. ”
When Chen Letian heard him say this, he was shocked and hurriedly changed the topic: "Let me tell you, there are still two days, are you sure that you can track the prey?"
Li Chengjun said: "Is Brother Chen the kind of person who talks big? Take care of yourself and don't ask about other people's affairs." ”
The young man nodded hurriedly: "Yes, yes, yes." ”
