Chapter 156: Crab Mound
Zong Xin said: "It's decided, as long as you have time, you can go to the Silk Road for a turn, anyway, it's not interesting to stay in the room all day, it's not good to go out and see." Let me tell you, foreigners have blond hair and blue eyes, and they look strange, but when you get used to it, you will find it beautiful. ”
"Really?" Zhao Kuangyin wiped his saliva and asked, "Really...... Are they really blue eyes, yellow hair?"
"It's not just yellow, it's even red. Anyway, as long as the hair is the same color, the hair in the rest of the body is also that color. There are all kinds of strange things, and you will definitely be eye-opening when the time comes. Zong Xin said with a smile.
Everyone is wiping their saliva, and the hair everywhere else is yellow, and I can't stand just thinking about it in my head. I've never seen such a strange person, so it's better to waste a little time to see it.
Although Zongxin's ideal is very great, the most important thing now is to go to Jinling first to persuade Li Jing to attack the Chu State. This matter is not harmful to anyone, even Dugu Xingyue agrees. Although Zong Xin was obviously for the sake of the Great Han, Li Jing's capture of the Chu State was also a good thing for him.
Zongxin's plan is good for everyone, except for the Khitan Yelu Deguang, everyone in the world will benefit from it.
"By the way, master, did you find anything when you went to explore the Eight Dragon Tombs?" Han Lingkun's words stumped Zong Xin, there were discoveries and great discoveries, but they made people unhappy, because there was no way to break the formation for the time being. You have to figure out what other clues are in this hexagram of the Eight Dragon Tombs, and Zongxin doesn't want to take risks again.
"Heaven must not be divulged. ”
Han Lingkun didn't ask anymore, because Zong Xin's words could explain any problem, and with Zong Xin's identity, no one would doubt his motives.
Han Lingkun said: "When the masters come to the cold house, they should also fulfill the friendship of the landlord. Wenmei, now that the autumn is cool, it is the time for the river crabs to be fat, so I will buy more crabs tomorrow and let the masters taste how delicious our crabs in Xuzhou are. ”
Han Wenmei nodded immediately, although the Han family is not rich, they still have the money to invite people to dinner. Although there are more people here, and the amount of food and alcohol is not small, Han Lingkun will not go bankrupt because of this. Besides, the two brothers and sisters are going to go to Jinling with Zong Xin immediately, of course, they have to eat a good meal before leaving.
"Eating crabs?" Zong Xin pouted, he didn't like to eat crabs very much, the meat was too little to eat, and it was too hard to eat, and it was not as enjoyable as beef, but eating crabs and drinking rice wine was a good match.
Dugu Xingyue said gently: "Husband, you don't seem to like eating crabs. ”
"No, no, no, I just haven't eaten much crab. It's all shells, what's so delicious? I'd rather eat fish, the bones are troublesome, but there's a lot of meat. ”
Tianya said: "Master, people who can eat crabs can easily get the meat out, and I like to eat crabs." Anyway, every day is either beef or mutton, and occasionally we should eat some river fresh. ”
"That's right, I'm full and go back to sleep. Zong Xin put down the large bone in his hand, and then grabbed Tianya's clothes and wiped his mouth and hands.
Tianya just looked at it dryly, and Zong Zhi was indifferent. For a long time, Zong Xin was used to wiping his hands with Tianya's clothes, and after Dugu Xingyue appeared, he prepared everything very well, so Zong Xin forgot about this habit. Dugu Xingyue didn't prepare a hand cloth today, so Zong Xin picked up Tianya's clothes and wiped them again.
"Master, what are you accepting me as an apprentice for?"
"Wipe your hands~ If you don't want to, I'll find someone who is willing to let me wipe my hands as an apprentice. ”
"No......" Tianya gritted his teeth and said: "I am willing, as an apprentice, I should serve the master well, and I will hang a hand cloth on my body when you eat in the future, so it's okay." ”
Zong Xin said: "I knew why I had to be the first day today, you deserve to be my apprentice." Wipe your hands every day, and now you finally know how to be flexible. ”
Tianya is depressed and embarrassed at the same time. Although Zong Xin didn't say it, he wiped his hands with Tianya's clothes every day, and Tianya should have been prepared a long time ago and brought a hand cloth on his body at any time, so that Zong Xin could not use his own clothes. Why didn't you figure it out earlier?
Zong Xin took the two girls back to the tent to rest, and he kept thinking about what was hidden in the Eight Dragons Tomb, why was it protected by such a powerful formation. And it's the first time I've come into contact with this kind of thing, and it's amazing.
Although the effect of this hexagram was calculated by Zong Xin, it was by no means that anyone could make the thunder fall with such a swing, anyway, he didn't have the ability.
The function of this hexagram should be that anyone who wants to destroy it will be hit by a thunderbolt, and Zhao Kuangyin's local method can indeed avoid lightning strikes. But this formation is not so simple, there is another means to protect this formation, so even if you read the formation, you can't destroy it.
It is believed that as long as this formation is broken, the tomb can be opened, but how to destroy this formation is a serious problem.
Slowly and slowly after a long night, I couldn't sleep in the first place. The demon is a little better, although it is young and beautiful, but the requirements for this aspect are not very high. Dugu Xingyue is completely different, he asks Zong Xin for his life, and he must be so tired that he has no strength to sit up before he is willing to stop.
Although the demon looked a little unhappy, he didn't mind, because Zongxin was still young at this time, and it didn't matter if he came a few more times. As long as Dugu Xingyue is careful, don't grind the iron pestle into an embroidery needle. After the consultation, the demon understood one thing, the iron pestle would not be finely polished, so it didn't mind.
The demon and Dugu Xingyue are not worried about Zong Xin's body, his skills are very high, and manual labor like this is not a problem.
At noon the next day, Zong Xin accompanied the two girls out of the tent, everyone was used to it, they always slept until noon before getting up.
When she left the tent, she was already preparing lunch, and Han Wenmei dragged a box of crabs to the kitchen.
"Crabs, do you really eat crabs?"
Han Wenmei nodded and said, "Yes, Master Zongxin." ”
Han Wenmei said very little, just replied and immediately turned her head and continued to move the crab inside. Dugu Xingyue is the most sensible, and took two steps forward to help Han Wenmei.
In fact, eating crabs is the easiest, as long as the crabs are washed and put a little salt, and then the shells are steamed red in the steamer and cooked. Take it out and eat it with vinegar, no other seasonings are needed.
Although it is simple, there are too many people here, and each person has to eat several crabs, so Han Wenmei bought a lot of crabs and came back. Now it is late autumn, when the crabs are the fattest, and the waterways in Xuzhou are developed, and the crabs are easy to buy.
Dugu Xingyue and Han Wenmei were busy making crabs in the kitchen, and Tianya took the Eighteen Horsemen of Youyun to sit cross-legged on the ground and practice the Nine Seals and Pulse Method taught by the sect, and the wolf was by his side to protect the Dharma. Xiaobai also has a good relationship with Tianya now, Xiaobai is very smart, although he has to keep an eye on Zongxin, he benefits more from staying by Tianya's side.
At this time, Zhao Kuangyin squatted on the ground, and he didn't speak, just carefully looked at the things on the ground.
Zong Xin and the demon also went over to take a look, this is the dead crab that Han Wenmei threw away, why did Zhao Kuangyin keep staring at a dead crab?
"Brother Zhao, what's so nice about a dead crab, does it need a poor monk to overdo it for it?"
Zhao Kuangyin pouted and said, "Will you still exceed?"
"No, it won't. "Zong Xin went to Lingyun Temple for three years to practice light exercises, occasionally reciting Buddhist scriptures, and he has not yet handled this kind of business. I often saw some senior brothers taking ritual weapons to several nearby villages and towns to practice things, but Zongxin never went. But it's okay to get him to recite a few Great Compassion Mantras.
Zhao Kuangyin said: "I look at this crab...... It feels familiar, do you think it looks like a Haklong mound?"
This sentence reminded Zong Xin, yes, the Eight Dragon Tomb is like a crab, with a total of eight legs, and the positions of the two tombstones on the high platform are left and right, which does look like a crab.
"Alas~!You reminded me by saying this, the Eight Dragon Mound does look like a crab, could it be that there is a crab essence buried in it?"
"Phew~ Can crabs still become sperm?" Zhao Kuangyin said depressedly.
"Haven't you heard of spider spirits? spiders can become sperm from something as small, let alone a crab. Zong Xin said: "But what you said is quite right, the Eight Dragon Tomb is indeed very similar to a crab, is there any connection between this?"
'Goo~~Goo~~' Zongxin's stomach suddenly screamed, he had worked hard at high intensity last night, and he was hungry without breakfast today. As a high-ranking monk, Zong Xin also felt a little embarrassed, but people who practice martial arts usually eat more than ordinary people, so it is also normal.
"Hungry, let's eat some roast beef from yesterday first, eat less crab and drink rice wine at noon today." Zhao Kuangyin continued to observe the dead crab, and ignored Zongxin, a guy who knew how to sleep except for eating all day long.
Zongxin nodded, went to the campfire and cut a piece of roast beef to eat. The beef has been kept around the campfire, which has not been extinguished overnight, and there are still some sparks to this day, so the beef is still hot.
While eating beef, Zongxin was also thinking that the shape and color of the Eight Dragon Mound were indeed very similar to crabs.
"Demon demon, you've also seen the Eight Dragon Mound, do you think it's very similar to a crab?"
"It is indeed very similar, because it is eight legs and two eyes, which is the eight steps and two tablets of the Eight Dragon Tomb. The demon chuckled: "No wonder the surroundings are so cold, because crabs are yin, so when eating crabs, you have to drink rice wine, because rice wine is hot." If you only eat crabs, it will hurt your body. ”
Zong Xin asked curiously, "Is this true?"
"Do you still need to ask?" The demon is also very strange, sometimes Zongxin seems to know a lot of things that everyone doesn't know, but sometimes some knowledge problems Zongxin doesn't understand.
"The eight steps of the Eight Dragon Tomb form a hexagram, and it is a yin gossip, plus the crab sex yin, so the surroundings are so cold. I figured out this question, the people who built the Eight Dragon Tomb wanted to condense the yin qi...... But why did he want to condense the Yin Qi?" Zong Xin still had some questions that he hadn't figured out, not to mention that no matter what, if he wanted to open the Eight Dragon Tomb, he had to break this formation, and he hadn't thought of a way to break the formation, so everything else was in vain.
After eating a small piece of beef, Zong Xin practiced with the demon demon, and the demon used the six reincarnations to dismantle each other with Zong Xin. When you are idle and bored, you can learn from each other to improve your skills.
The demon feels that learning from Zong Xin is far more than usual, Zong Xin is really a martial arts genius, no matter what martial arts he learns after watching it a few times, if he explains it in detail, he can do it at one time. And Zongxin can tell the demon the loopholes in her martial arts and help her make up for her own shortcomings.
