Chapter 16 Winning Fish

The strange fish in the stone trough was covered with feathers, and its two wing-like fins danced back and forth, looking as if they were flying in the sky. When they saw someone coming, they all gathered in the corner, and from time to time they made a sound similar to a bird's call.

After seeing the strange fish in the stone trough, Wu Mian was stunned for a moment, thinking that he didn't know the origin of the strange fish, and just wanted to sell his knowledge cheaply, but he didn't expect Wu Mian to look back at him, and two words popped out of his mouth: "Yingyuโ€”โ€”"

"Hmm, I can't see it, you can recognize Yingyu" Gui Gui glanced at Wu Mian in surprise, and then continued with some old sales: "I can't see that you are young, and you are still a little knowledgeable......

Wu Mian glanced at the return, the old guy was excited, and immediately changed his words, saying, "...... Knowledgeable."

Wu Mian ignored him anymore, and continued to look at the winning fish hiding in the corner of the stone trough. These feathered strange fish originally grew in the ocean water of the mountain, and they were not originally the products of the Central Plains, but only appeared in the gods and monsters such as the Classic of Mountains and Seas. Wu Mian had seen that a few years ago, when the First Emperor had just unified the Seven Kingdoms, there were two pairs of winning fish among the treasures of Korean tribute. At that time, the chief of the Fang Shi deduced that the ancient recipe had the method of making the elixir of life with the bone marrow of the winning fish as the medicine, and the first emperor gave the winning fish to the chief of the Fang Shi without saying a word, but there was a little twist and turn when the slave tested the medicine, and the slave was killed by bleeding from seven holes on the spot after taking the elixir made of the bone marrow of the winning fish. Naturally, such an elixir did not dare to be given to the First Emperor, but fortunately, there were too many elixir earth immortal prescriptions that circulated at that time, and it was not uncommon for a slave to die in a pill, but in the heart of the chief administrator, it was more pity to spoil two winning fish than to die two slaves.

For the next thirteen days, Wu Mian and Gui Bugui stayed in the cave. Because he was afraid that Wu Zu would take people up the mountain again to find Wu Mian's whereabouts, he would not return to the cave and lay down a few formations that confused people's minds, don't look at his ability to use spells was sealed, but there was no problem with putting a few small formations, as long as Wu Zu didn't come in person, it was impossible to find out the situation in the cave.

The rest is a matter of eating and drinking, and the food that was brought before and brought with it was taken away by the forest fire. Just when he was setting up the formation, Wu Mian found some wild fruits nearby, and originally wanted to catch some rabbits and other game, roast them as dry food, but he was worried that Wu Zu would organize the local Miao people to come up to search the mountains, and the cooking smoke would expose their hiding place, so he finally forgot it. But only these can't last a few days, although I can't die of hunger, but the feeling of hunger is no different from ordinary people, and the rest of the days rely on gritting my teeth to stiffen up.

If you don't return to the right thing, you have practiced Bigu, otherwise you won't be able to survive for more than a hundred years. On the third day after the wild fruit was eaten, when Wu Mian was so hungry that he was about to scratch the wall, he talked about his most beautiful time before: "Let me tell you a story to relieve your hunger, when the old man I was invited by the monarch of Chu to pray for the newborn prince." At the dinner, the monarch of Chu personally brought a hundred and ten princes to accompany him. The wine that night was good, and it was mellow and fragrant. One hundred and ten princes came over to toast, and I didn't get drunk, old man. In the past, the bear's paw was simmered in fish soup, and the entrance was really crispy and fragrant, so it was called both fish and bear's paw. There is also roast venison, which is charred over a charcoal fire, and the oil runs down the corner of your mouth when you bite into it. And that fish...... Huh, what are you going to do?"

The more he said that he would not return, the more Wu Mian's hunger grew, and in the end, he couldn't bear it anymore, and rushed to the front of him in a few steps. Without waiting for him to react, he slapped the old guy in the face, and he spun around without returning, and his head touched the stone tip that emerged from the cave wall, and his eyes fainted.

After four or five hours, he woke up leisurely, he looked at Wu Mian in a daze, and only remembered what happened after a while: "Why did you beat me again?"

Wu Mian was so hungry that he couldn't straighten his waist, he leaned on the cave wall and said viciously: "If you talk about the history of eating and drinking in the past, I will bite off the meat on your arms and thighs and eat it." Anyway, you will live forever, and the flesh and blood you lost will soon be able to grow back!"

After blinking his eyes, he said with a bitter face: "You don't know, I also suffered back then." When I was a child, my arms and thighs were injured and purulent, and I was bitten by flies, and the wounds were full of maggots......"

"Shut up!"

โ€œ......โ€

On the first day, Wu Mian slowly got used to the feeling of hunger. During these days, a group of Miao people went into the cave and went around, Wu Mian held the dagger left on him by the 'forest fire' in his hand, and when he was about to fight hard, he gestured to him on the side, seeing that he meant that the people who came in could not see them and did not let Wu Mian do it.

Sure enough, several Miao people walked in front of Wu Mian, completely regarded him as air, looked left and right, and after a few words, the leader left the cave with the people. Wu Mian had been in Miao Village for a few months, and he understood the general meaning of half-listening and half-guessing: The white-haired one is not here, how can he dare to stay here after offending Wu Zu?

After the Miao people left, no one else came in. Wu Mian spent his days in the cave until the thirteenth day, and although he was still hungry, he could clearly feel that the strength he had lost not long ago had regained.

Not far away, Gui Bugui was looking over with a strange look, and Wu Mian was also turning his head to look at him at this time. When the two of them met their eyes, an arc of electricity suddenly flashed on Wu Mian's hand. The face of the returnee immediately changed drastically, and he turned around and ran towards the entrance of the cave. But as soon as he turned around, before he could open his legs, he heard a "stab" sound in his back, and an electric light came over, hitting the back of the returnee, and the old guy fell to the ground and trembled for a long time before he got up from the ground again, and said to Wu Mian with a bitter face: "You must be like this, do you know that the ability has returned?"

Wu Mian let out a sigh, walked to the side of the returnee, smiled rarely, and said: "See if you dare to show off when I am not satisfied" After finishing speaking, he directly stepped over the return and staggered towards the direction of the cave.

Looking at Wu Mian's back, he silently made a "phew!" mouth, and then said into the air: "The old thing surnamed Xu - is this all good for you?"

After Wu Mian came out of the cave, his eyebrows suddenly opened, the thumb and index finger of his right hand were pinched relative to each other, and an electric spark came out of his fingers. In the blink of an eye, the electric spark turned into an arc of electricity and shot out at the bushes not far away. A hare fell out of the bushes, and after a few convulsions, fell straight to the ground, motionless.

Wu Mian walked over, threw the dead rabbit to Gui Bugui, who came out of the cave behind him, and said, "Make a fire and roast the rabbit, remember, you want to roast the taste of bear pawsโ€”โ€”"

Four days later, in the evening, an old man and a young man with white hair appeared on the edge of a large pool below the waterfall. The old man walked back and forth on the edge of the waterhole, as if he was looking for something, and the white-haired young man not far from him was holding a stone trough in his hand, which was full of strange fish swimming around. Even the ribbon fish and the stone trough weigh almost a few hundred catties, but this young man is like holding a paper box, and he doesn't see any effort. The two of them walked around the nearby Miao Village in the morning, but the strange thing was that there was not even a single person in the more than a dozen Miao villages nearby.

These two people were none other than Gui Bugui and Wu Mian, who were supposed to go down the mountain the night before. But when he was about to reach the foot of the mountain, he suddenly stopped Wu Mian, he tilted his head, as if he hadn't figured out something, stood in front of Wu Mian and said: "No, it's been so long, I'm thinking about how I can meet a few waves of Miao people who set up a card." I haven't met anyone, it's not like the style of this Wu Zu."

At this time, Wu Mian also tasted it, and he said along the words of no return: "What do you mean that they set up an ambush below?"

"Not necessarily" Gui Gui squinted his eyes, glanced at the direction of the big pool, and then said: "It may also be that something has changed on Wu Zu's side, and he can't take care of our side anymore." โ€

Wu Mian couldn't stand his scheming expression a little, and squinted his eyes and said, "Let's be straight, what do you mean?"

"Go back and see" Seeing Wu Mian's expression, he took two steps back in a row, calculating the distance of avoiding Wu Mian's arm length, and then continued: "Go back and see, maybe there is something cheap to take advantage of."
