Chapter 657: The True Body of the Alien Beast
Ho Luo fish?
This name Zhao Tuo feels a little familiar, and it seems to be a species in the "Classic of Mountains and Seas" that I heard in my previous life.
Although I remember the name in a trance, Zhao Tuo can't remember the specific appearance very clearly, after all, there are too many strange things in that book, and normal people have nothing to remember in their hearts.
Fortunately, there were erudite people among the first emperor's entourage.
Zuo Prime Minister Wang Juan learned to be rich in five cars, thought slightly, and said: "I have heard that He Luo's fish, one and ten bodies, is a strange beast in the world, it is not this thing." ”
"What the public said is very true, the strange beast I sacrificed is the legendary ten-body He Luo fish."
Xu Shi opened his mouth with a smile and arched his hand at Wang Juan.
The faces of the people were all amazed.
One head, ten bodies.
Is there really such a strange creature in the world?
Hu Hai's big eyes lit up, and the child's curiosity was the strongest, and he immediately took the emperor's hand and said, "Father, let's go and see, I've never seen such a strange thing." ”
The First Emperor was also curious, and waved his hand to Xu Shi: "Lead the way ahead, I will see what this ten-body He Luo fish looks like today." ”
"Yui."
Xu Shi arched his hand, turned around and strode ahead to lead the way.
At the same time, the many Lang guards who followed the first emperor to the island also dispersed immediately, and a group of people followed Xu Shi to check the security situation, although there were already county guards sent by the Jiaodong county guard on this island, but the emperor's safety must be careful and cautious.
Seeing that the first emperor's father and son, as well as many ministers, were curious, Lu Sheng, Han Zhong, and Shi Sheng, who came with him, looked at each other, and their eyes were full of smiles.
It seems that they are really on the right track.
After rejoicing with each other, Lu Sheng's eyes looked at Zhao Tuo, the martial arts marquis among the ministers.
On this trip to Zhifu Island, he was about to test this "immortal disciple".
When Lu Sheng turned his head to look at Zhao Tuo, he found that those bright eyes had been staring at him, and the light in those eyes seemed to see through everything.
Lu Sheng's head appeared again with the scene of being asked by Zhao Tuo that day, he didn't dare to look at each other, and turned his head away after laughing awkwardly.
Zhao Tuo smiled faintly.
A song and ten body of He Luo fish.
What could it be?
Before seeing anything, Zhao Tuo didn't say much, and followed the curious ministers to the island.
Zhifu Island is not big, and after a while they came to their destination.
It was a flat area of the island, not far from the sea, with a pond dug by man, and a ditch to connect the sea level in the distance, and to divert seawater into the pond to feed the so-called beast.
"Your Majesty, please look, the strange beast He Luoyu is here."
Xu Shi walked to the pond, his round face was full of smiles, and he stretched out his hand to point to the pond.
Although the ministers were extremely curious, this kind of thing had to be talked about in an orderly manner, and the emperor's father and son had to see it first, so everyone stopped moving.
The First Emperor walked a few steps to the edge of the pond and looked up at the pond.
When he saw it clearly, his face instantly became serious, and a pair of eyes stared at the strange beast in the water.
After a long time, the First Emperor sighed: "There is really such a mysterious thing in the world. ”
Hu Hai next to him shouted in shock, and at the same time stretched out his chubby little hand and counted: "One, two, three...... Ten! This He Luo fish really has ten bodies! ”
The words of the emperor's father and son almost confirmed the identity of the alien beast He Luoyu, which made everyone even more itchy.
Fortunately, the emperor quickly let them come forward to watch.
Belch......
At this moment, the sound of exhalation was endless.
The old prime minister shook his head and said: "The old man has lived for nearly seventy years, and he has never seen such a mysterious thing, and now he can be regarded as an eye-opener." ”
Although Zuo Prime Minister Wang Juan was born in the Kanto region, his home is not near the seashore, and he is also surprised to see the strange beasts in the pond at this moment.
Tingwei Li Si's father and son glanced at each other, and they both sighed.
Ziying exclaimed in Zhao Tuo's ear: "A song with ten bodies, it is really a strange thing in the world, it is really a strange beast." ”
In the surprise of everyone, Zhao Tuo looked at the "strange beast" in the pond that was nearly two meters long.
A pointed head, a pair of large, glimmering eyes, and ten long "bodies" below.
Zhao Tuo was not surprised.
It's just a picture in his head.
The "Ho Luo Fish" is cut open, then used with bamboo skewers to penetrate its body, marinated with various seasonings such as chili powder, Sichuan pepper powder, monosodium glutamate, etc., and then sprinkled with a thin layer of cumin powder, and then placed on an iron plate that has been brushed with oil on the stove......
What kind of strange beast He Luo fish, this Xu Shi caught the so-called squid in later generations!
And it's a big squid.
Goo-dong.
Zhao Tuo's Adam's apple rolled up and down.
It's been eight years, and he's been on a light diet for eight years.
Seeing the big squid in this pond at this moment, Zhao Tuo couldn't help but swallow his saliva, and couldn't help imagining the wonderful taste of eating this thing in his stomach.
This scene happened to fall into the eyes of Lu Sheng, who was peeping at the "immortal disciple".
Their group of alchemists secretly guessed Zhao Tuo's identity before, but because they were only speculating, they were not sure.
Therefore, Lu Sheng decided to observe silently first, and on the way of the emperor's eastern tour of Zhifu Island, to see Zhao Tuo's reaction, so as to confirm whether it was really as they guessed.
And when they arrived on Zhifu Island, after seeing the strange beast He Luoyu captured by Xu Shi, everyone, including the emperor, was amazed that there was such a strange species in the world. Only the martial arts hou Zhao Tuo did not say a word, his face was calm, as if he had already seen the appearance of this He Luoyu, and he was not surprised at all.
What's more, Lu Sheng actually saw Wugong Hou swallowing saliva at He Luoyu!
It seems that Wugong Hou knows that He Luo fish can be eaten, and it is very delicious.
With Lu Sheng's vicious eyes that have been cultivated by walking the world for many years, it can be seen at a glance that the appearance of Zhao Tuo, the martial arts marquis, is by no means fake.
Zhao Tuo had seen He Luo fish, and even ate the meat of He Luo fish himself.
"Isn't it that when Wugong Hou was young, he was taken to the overseas immortal mountain by the immortals, where he learned the military book and the art of creation, and the immortals gave Wugong Hou the meat of this strange beast!"
Lu Sheng completed Zhao Tuo's experience in his head, and his heart suddenly became hot.
At this time, the First Emperor had already taken his gaze back from He Luoyu, looked at Xu Shi, who had offered such a strange beast, and asked, "Where did you come from with this thing, and why did you say that it was an immortal guide?" ”
Hearing this, Zhao Tuo also temporarily suppressed the idea of eating iron plate squid, and set his eyes on Xu Shi, he wanted to see how this guy would answer.
I saw Xu Shi's face calm, and said to the emperor: "Just a few months ago, the minister Yu Langya had a dream, and he dreamed that the sun was rising from the west and coming straight to Jiaodong. And the minister involuntarily drove the ship to sail the sea in a dream, and not long after going to sea, he saw the ethereal fairy mountain in a sea of clouds, and saw that there seemed to be a figure walking on the fairy mountain, and threw out a ray of light and fell into the sea. ”
After the minister woke up, he thought that this dream was unusual, and then he heard that His Majesty came from the east of the pass, which was in response to the dream of the sun coming from the west. The minister dedicated this dream to the county guard, and with the support of the county guard, he got a boat to go to sea, and threw the net at the place where the immortal threw things in the dream, and he got this strange beast He Luo fish. ”
"From what the minister can see, this is exactly the immortal in the sea who knows that His Majesty has come to the east, so he guided me to capture these strange beasts and present them to Your Majesty!"
At this point, Zhao Tuo had already completely understood the plans of the Fang Shi.
Use this Guanzhong person who has never seen a big squid to confirm the existence of Xianshan and immortals!
In fact, when I started to want to write about octopus, Yang Shen in the Ming Dynasty had a comment: "He Luo fish, today eight ribbon fish." The picture in the article also looks like an octopus.
However, there are many sayings that He Luoyu is a squid, a song with ten bodies, an octopus with only eight legs, and a squid with ten, think about it or squid fit.
