Chapter 26: Koi (Seeking Reading)
The red fruit is like fire, transparent and dripping, and the full juice exudes a faint fragrance.
Li Mo's expression changed slightly, and he couldn't help but be stunned: "You...... What do you eat? ”
"Zhu Guo."
Hong Xiaofu grinned, he was a master of the Inner Breath Realm Fivefold, how could he not recognize such a precious elixir as Zhu Guo.
"Don't say it, the medicinal power of this Zhu Guo is really enough, and it is rare that the wild can grow like this." Hong Xiaofu's face was full of red light.
As soon as he took his first bite, it was as if he had swallowed a ball of flame, and his whole body was so hot that the internal breath in his body could not suppress the boiling.
Now, Hong Xiaofu only feels as if his body is about to be propped up.
"You...... Where did you get that? ”
Li Mo and Feng Wannian glanced at each other and asked in unison.
This Zhu Guo looked too suspicious.
"I picked it up in the mountains." Hong Xiaofu grinned and said, "Look at my luck." ”
"You know I have a habit of practicing every morning......
This is Hong Xiaofu's ancestral kung fu, he has to go into the mountains every morning to collect qi, and he can't break his body before he is eighteen years old.
"As soon as I went to Caiyun Peak, I saw a rabbit, and I wanted to call it to roast and eat it, but it disappeared after a smoke......
Hong Xiaofu faintly regretted.
"When I went up to check it, I found this Zhu Guo...... Luck. ”
Hong Xiaofu swept the wind and clouds, and gnawed the Zhu Guo in his hand cleanly, as if he was afraid that Li Mo and the two would come to grab food.
Li Mo and Feng Wannian looked at each other, only feeling that something was wrong.
"Xiaofu, do you know that something happened to Elder Wang?" Li Mo asked tentatively.
"Which Elder Wang?"
"It's the ...... Dange"
"Oh oh, the one who likes to squint the female disciples?"
"Yes, yes, that's him!"
"What happened to him? Alchemy fryer? Dead? Hong Xiaofu said with concern.
"I heard that I was stimulated, and I pumped it, woke up and vomited three basins of blood, and played the strings directly." Feng Wannian seemed to have seen it with his own eyes, his right hand was floating and twitching constantly.
"It's so miserable, the [Nourishing Pill] I exchanged last month was refined by him, and I gave two more pieces." Hong Xiaofu said kindly.
"No, I have to go see Elder Wang."
"Xiaofu."
Li Mo grabbed him.
"If you haven't had anything to do lately, don't run to Dange."
"Huh!?" Hong Xiaofu was stunned: "Why?" ”
"You'll know." Feng Wannian waved his hand.
In short, he and Li Mo didn't know anything about Zhu Guo's theft, and they didn't see anything.
"By the way, what are you doing today?" Li Mo hurriedly diverted the topic.
"I caught a carp essence, and I wanted to find a buyer for Lao Feng's way."
Hong Xiaofu put the [Demon Suppression Altar] in his arms on the table, and engraved the mark of this furnace on it.
"Carp!?" When Li Mo heard this, his eyes lit up.
In folklore, people like carp, tortoise, and rooster are considered to be born with spirits, and keeping them in the home can change feng shui, bless people in and out of the house, and even attract wealth.
Especially the koi, it is said that among many domestic pets, the spirituality is the largest, and once the spirit is turned into a demon, it can even help the owner to ward off the calamity.
In the early years, there were demon hunters who specialized in raising koi fish, practicing demon psychic, and selling them to rich and wealthy families.
This kind of demon is extremely weak, and it will not cause harm to human beings, and once it is recognized and introduced into the house, it can indeed accumulate blessings, gather wealth, prosper the lord, town house, and block evil......
Two years ago, Li Mo followed Yan Zixia down the mountain to catch demons, passing by a wealthy family, but he saw a psychic koi fish raised by the owner in a large pond in the backyard, which was the size of a table of eight immortals.
The koi fish was snow-white, and there was a fist-sized hole in its head, almost sunken in, which looked extremely weird.
In addition, it has two extremely deep scars on its body, extending from its chest to its tail.
Later, Li Mo learned that the owner of this family has been mixed in the underworld green forest for generations, and has been guided by masters since he was a child, and when he was a six-year-old boy, he raised this koi fish, and fed it personally every day, day and night, and recited scriptures with the elders at noon.
After ten years of hard work, this koi fish is finally psychic.
The owner of the house had been robbed three times in his life, and it was almost impossible for him to survive, all thanks to the help of the koi.
Later, he knew that there was a lot at stake, so he decided to retire and go ashore to wash his name.
Yan Zixia said that the family did meet a master, and this method of raising koi is a secret of the Xuanmen, and even if ordinary people master it, it is difficult to adhere to it.
Because of this, among the many spiritual pets that change feng shui, koi fish are the most difficult to raise, but they have the greatest ability.
This thing has dragon nature but no dragon shape, and has always been sought after by wealthy businessmen.
"Tsk, if this thing is pressed into the prison, it will be worth a little merit, but if you find a suitable buyer, it will be worth eight hundred taels of silver." Feng Wannian squinted.
This is no secret in Luofu Mountain.
Some demon hunters captured special demons and ghosts, and they were unwilling to use them in exchange for merit, so they sold them through threads like Feng Wannian.
In addition to monks, many ordinary wealthy businessmen are also happy with some special demons.
Listening to Feng Wannian, the most sought-after in recent years are the four demon girls, namely the cat woman, the fox girl, the rabbit girl and the dog girl.
These four types of demons are almost in short supply, and the price is extremely high.
As for what the rich businessmen bought back for, it is unknown.
Of course, Feng Wannian, as a thread, can also get half of it.
"Leave me alone, I'll definitely find you a reliable buyer." Feng Wannian grinned.
It's not been a day or two since he's done this kind of thing, and there are so many ways.
The rich gentry and wealthy businessmen in the nine towns and eighteen townships under the mountain, Feng Wannian knew at least half of them.
"Sell it to me."
At this moment, Li Mo suddenly spoke.
"Huh!?"
"Sold to you!?"
Feng Wannian and Hong Xiaofu were all stunned, and they all showed different colors.
Among the three of them, Li Mo is the poorest, Hong Xiaofu needless to say, a two-star demon hunter, the monthly salary plus the subsidy for demon hunting is a considerable amount.
Although Feng Wannian also received five coins of silver every month, he still had other gray income.
Only Li Mo, who was poor and white, actually opened his mouth to buy this koi.
"This thing costs eight hundred taels of silver, to say the least."
"I also know a rich man, and last time he went down the mountain to let me help find a koi, and the money was given to me."
Li Mo lied and took out a stack of crumpled silver tickets from his arms, no more, no less, just eight hundred taels of silver.
All this money was taken out by him from his peers one by one.
"Tsk, Momo, I can't see that you have so much money on you."
"Okay, I won't rob you of this business." Feng Wannian pursed his lips.
"Look at what you said, these forty taels are your share."
Li Mo changed hands and took out another silver ticket.
"I'm just doing people a favor."
"Hahaha, you're just too kind." Feng Wannian laughed and took the silver ticket.
Li Mo also grinned, I have to say that spending other people's money is not distressing.
"This is your li." Hong Xiaofu pushed the Demon Suppression Altar on the table.
Li Mo held it in his arms, his eyes shining with brilliance.
After all, he hadn't released demons for a while.
"Heaven has the virtue of a good life, I hope I can survive." Li Mo showed mercy and prayed silently in his heart.
