Chapter 42: The fragrance is in the bones, and it will not disperse for thousands of years

Zhao Yuanling shook his head with fear in his eyes.

"Hahaha, you girls are fighting for it! How do you think the lady's ointment is made? They were sharpened out of their fingernails, pulled out with pliers one by one when they were alive, and they still had blood on them! ”

The man seemed to be deliberately scaring her, and when he saw the frightened eyes of the two, he said even more vigorously.

He walked up to Ximen Zhong and Zhao Yuanling, smiling obscenely, his eyes revealing a terrifying and fierce color.

"The fishskin lantern looks good, right? It's made by directly peeling off their skins alive, and the scales are all on the top, which is the most tiring, and the skin will break if you're not careful, I've been practicing for a long time, but I heard that your little girl's family likes it the most.

And the bone bracelet, the girl's favorite bracelet, which was made of their bones, and was cut down alive! ”

His eyes looked at the incense candle in Zhao Yuanling's hand, and said with a smile, "It smells good, that's done with saliva foam, what if they don't like to open their mouths?" Then beat their mouths so swollen that they can't close them, and they'll keep flowing! Hahaha......"

At last the man paused, the corners of his mouth showed a greedy and wicked smile, and his eyes burst with a demented and evil light, and there was no fear in his eyes, only love to the point of madness.

Saliva made ......

When Zhao Yuanling heard this, he was so frightened that he trembled, and the incense candle rolled to the ground.

Seeing her frightened appearance, the men seemed to be amused.

"How do you think the lights come from? They cut off their flesh and put it into oil, and the oil that comes out is the oil that does not extinguish the lamp.

And the longevity powder, which is to dry their meat and grind it into powder! ”

"Enough, don't talk about it!" Zhao Yuanling's pupils contracted violently, and he covered his ears tremblingly.

The man's smile widened, "If you ask, why do you want to dry and grind it into powder?" It's not because you people are afraid when you see it, after all, eating raw meat is more nourishing, do you dare to eat it? Hahahaha! ”

Zhao Yuanling closed her eyes, and thought of the beads she had seen before, she didn't need to ask, she knew what it was made of.

Ximen Zhong also trembled, not knowing whether he was angry or annoyed.

"Aren't you afraid that I will sue the government?"

"Official? Is the government in charge? He still can't wait for us to send him more goods, after all, this thing is rare in Beijing, and it costs ten times and a hundred times the price to sell it in the city, but now he can't buy it with money. ”

The brothers clapped their hands, and the man who was missing an eye chuckled, "Anyway, the money is in hand, and I haven't thought about it for a long time, so let's wait for the rest to be divided." ”

The brothers glanced at each other, thinking differently.

Lao Da, who lacked an eye, said: "The three of us brothers have worked the hardest and most tired, and we can get so much money anyway." He gestured to a seven

As soon as he said this, Lao Si stopped doing it, "If we hadn't brought people over, how could you get so much money." ”

The reason why the price of these seafood is so high is not only the peculiarity of the shark itself, but also the fact that those rich people know that they are competing for speculation.

Put it in a small town in the middle of nowhere, no one will buy it regardless of whether you are forever young or immortal, not because they don't want to, but because food, clothing and housing are all problems, and who can take care of these.

If it weren't for his means, these goods would never have been sold at sky-high prices.

These idiots just want to get the money, and although he doesn't do as hard work as theirs, he does mental work.

Lao San was immediately dissatisfied, and his fat lips muttered, "Aren't we more tired than you when we are locked up in this black and hemp room every day?" You can still be lazy when you wander around outside every day, and none of my brothers dare to be idle. ”

One of them chimed in: "That's not it, we went to the sea to study and study, otherwise where would so many sharks take the bait." ”

Lao Wu interjected silently: "Then should I also share an extra sum of money, after all, I found the merman first." ”

When Lao Wu went out to sea to fish, he accidentally fell off the rocky reef, injured his leg, and fell into the sea.

Just when he thought he was going to die in the belly of the fish, he didn't expect to encounter a human-like fish.

The upper body has a nose and eyes like a human, but the lower body is a fishtail, thinking that it was a monster in the sea, so he was frightened and hurriedly begged for mercy.

However, the merman not only did not eat him, but also brought him to the shore.

"You wait for me, I'll go home and bring you something to eat."

Lao Wu was very grateful to him, and the family had nothing to repay him except for food.

The merman didn't nod or shake his head, I don't know if he didn't understand what he said.

So Lao Wuyi limped away.

After going back, the brothers of the family who couldn't open the pot completely disagreed with him taking out the only bowl of rice he had left.

So Lao Wu had no choice but to tell the merman about it, and the brothers didn't believe it, and then followed him to the shore.

It's not gone yet!

Lao Wu said excitedly: "You see, I didn't deceive people, it saved me. ”

When the merman saw so many people suddenly coming, he was so frightened that he suddenly got into the water.

"My good man, it's really a merman!"

"It looks like this, it's weird that it's good-looking."

The brothers looked at each other.

Lao Si brought the only remaining rice from the family, just a small bowl, and if it was cooked into porridge, it was estimated that it would only be able to drink one meal for five brothers.

When I got home, there were only a few stinky fish left in the house that could not be sold.

The grumpy Lao grumbled with hunger and threw the bowl down.

"Damn, I don't have anything to eat, and I have to send rice out, what do you say is not good, I have to send food! Don't look at the shark living in the sea, the fish and shrimp are all edible, is there a shortage of our bag of rice? ”

"But it saved me, and only rice can handle it in our family."

Living in the sea area, surrounded by fishermen, there is no way to support the five brothers by selling fish.

Lao Da snorted dissatisfied, but had nothing more to say.

"Now there are more and more fishing, these fish can't be sold, and their mouths smell fishy every day, and they are about to become cats."

Lao San pouted and licked his lips, "It's still fragrant rice." ”

Law yelled, "Who doesn't know it's delicious? ”

"It seems that selling fish is not a long-term solution, otherwise we should go out of the city." Lao Er discussed.

Lao Si shook his head on the side, "It is said that there is gold in the sea, as long as we are lucky, we can make a fortune, but we can't make a fortune by working outside for a lifetime." ”

He sighed, "But when will our luck get to the point where Wang Ergou does?" ”

Wang Ergou of the next door went to sea and caught a golden fish, and a rich merchant in the town bought it directly for 5,000 taels.

Lao Da snorted fiercely, "What shit luck!" ”

Lao San, who had not spoken, had an abnormal light in his eyes, and said with an excited expression: "Didn't our luck come too?" ”

"What luck?"

He smiled meaningfully, "Shark." ”

Lao Wu: "No, that's the benefactor who saved me!" ”

The four brothers of the Lao family went to the previous reef while Lao Wu was sleeping.

To their surprise, the merman was still there, and when he saw the comer, he didn't hide, and it seemed that he had already recognized them.

Annoyed, the merman took a bite of the rice they had brought earlier, and said vaguely, "No, it's not good." ”

"It can talk!"

The three brothers didn't expect this merman to be so smart, except for the fishtail, he was almost the same as them.

"Big brother, what should I do......

"What is there to do? It's just a livestock, not a person. Lao Da's eyes showed a fierce look.

Lao San took out the steamed buns he picked up, "Then do you want to eat something more delicious?" ”

The merman thought for a moment and nodded heavily.

"Then you come up."

The mermaids shook their heads, they didn't seem to be able to go ashore.

Lao San and Lao Da glanced at each other, and he placed the steamed bun in front of it as if fishing to lure it into the bait.

Lao Da took advantage of its inattention and stepped back.

After all, the merman couldn't resist the temptation, and watched the palm-sized steamed bun move forward step by step.

It had swam to the shore of the reef, half out of the water, its hands propped up on the reef.

Between the lightning and flint, Lao Da hurriedly dragged it to the shore. The merman was frightened and hurriedly struggled.

Its strength was as great as that of an ox, and it knocked Lao Da to the ground at once.

The other three rushed to help.

"Grab it, our brothers will be able to eat white rice for a few meals!"

Hearing this, a greedy light erupted in the eyes of the brothers, and they struggled to catch the merman.

Their eyes emitted a man-eating essence, and their eyes were scarlet, this is not a merman, this is a mountain of gold and silver!

With it, never go hungry again!

They have a ruthlessness in them, a ruthlessness that is not afraid of death.

To be precise, fishermen who dare to go out to sea to fish have this energy.

Every time a fisherman goes to sea, he gambles with the sea, and even if the water is good, there will be a day when the boat capsizes.

They are not afraid, they are afraid that they will not have anything to eat.

Aren't they risking their lives to go out fishing, just to make a living?

No, not only.

They knew that there were too many treasures in the sea.

It's like a huge treasure trove, and what you catch depends on luck.

As Lao Si said, going out to work and wanting to get rich is simply a dream.

And just like that, they brought back the first merman.

At first, I didn't know what to do with the merman, but there are records in ancient books.

"The mermaid resembles a humanoid shape and is more than a foot long. With mermaid paste as a candle, the fire will not be extinguished, the water will not be wet, and once burned, it will not be extinguished for ten thousand years. The fragrance is in the bones, and it will not disperse for thousands of years. ”

So they used the flesh and skin of the mermaids to refine oil, and the shaved bones were used to make bracelet accessories, and made lamps and bone bracelets.

As soon as he took it out and sold it, he was snatched up, and the unexpected rush made the four brothers of the Lao family ecstatic.

Their bones are not quite the same as those of the human body, they are snow-white and translucent, crystal clear like fine jade.

The bracelet is not heavy, it is light and beautiful to wear on the hand, and it is very popular with women.

A merman's body can create ten pairs of bone bracelets and an inextinguishable lamp.
