Chapter Seventy-Three, Shameless!
Qingshui River is a branch of the Zhanghe River, which is divided into two in Qingshuitan, ten miles outside the city. One is Qingshui Ditch, and the other is called Turbidity Stream.
The night was very quiet, it was the night of the full moon in the Mid-Autumn Festival on August 15, and there was no one around. Only the chirping of insects in the grass and the croaking of frogs by the river give the night a touch of color.
The moonlight was like water, and a fat frog poked its head out of the water, half of its head looked up at a silver moon in the sky, and a trace of light visible to the naked eye shot into the frog's eyes, and the frog's body size also grew at a speed visible to the naked eye. It slowly changed from the size of a fist to the size of a leather ball.
This kind of frog is called "Moon Frog", and it has the blood of the thin ancient divine beast Xuanwu in its body, and knows how to absorb the essence of the sun and the moon, and practice the inner dan.
The Mochizuki frog jumps fast, is alert by nature, and is extremely difficult to catch by ordinary people, so it has been peaceful.
Until one day, the founder of martial arts in the Central Plains, the great master of martial arts, Hua Tuo, discovered the medicinal value of the Mochizuki frog, and the future of the Mochizuki frog clan came.
The Mochizuki Frog for more than one year can be made into soup and cooked, the taste is excellent, and it can prolong life after eating; the Mochizuki Frog for more than 10 years can be sold to pharmacies, and can cure all kinds of incurable diseases, and the medicine can cure the disease, which is comparable to a panacea; the Mochizuki Frog for more than 100 years can cure all kinds of strange poisons and internal injuries, and those who practice martial arts can take it, and can also strengthen the body and enhance their skills; the Mochizuki Frog for more than 1,000 years, ordinary people can live to be 250 years old, which is comparable to the elixir. Those who practice martial arts can get it, open up the second vein of Ren Du, obtain a hundred years of skill, and become a land immortal;
The Mochizuki Frog is a treasure all over its body, and it can be exchanged for silver, and it can improve its skills. The people in the martial arts can't sit still, and no one is willing to practice hard and act chivalrous. Every night, people carry lanterns and torches and grope in the ditches by the river.
No matter how big or small, as long as it is a Mochizuki frog, it will all be caught cleanly. Although the Moon Frog is fast, in the face of faster martial arts masters, they can only stare at the big bulging eyes and be caught. Their close relatives, frogs, were also taken a lot. In the fields by the river, the sound of flocks of frogs can no longer be heard. The Mochizuki Frog suffered a catastrophe and its population plummeted, making it a rarity.
Due to the fact that there are many Moon Frogs, the overall strength of the people in the martial arts has been continuously improved, and many people have been promoted to become the top masters of the Martial Mountain Realm.
Soon, however, people paid a terrible price for their short-sightedness. Due to the sharp decline and extinction of frogs, the pests in the fields and fields have no natural predators, and they multiply in large numbers and eat all the crops.
The plague did not come alone, and there was another locust plague that year. The common people had nothing to eat, so they had to eat grass roots and tree bark, and starved to death. The imperial court not only did not provide relief to the victims, but demanded that the people pay all kinds of harsh taxes and miscellaneous taxes. If you can't hand over the money, you will be killed and imprisoned, and countless families will be ruined. The common people were forced to have no way to live, so they could only raise the banner and rebel.
The Yellow Turban Sect advocated that the people hated corrupt officials and corrupt officials, hated the imperial court, and took the opportunity to raise troops. There were people in Kyushu all over the world who responded, and the Yellow Turban Army was huge, defeating the official army in a row, the world was shaken, and the rule of the Han Dynasty was in jeopardy.
At this time, the insatiable martial arts people hit the body of a 10,000-year-old moon-looking giant frog in the depths of the Taihang Mountain Range, in the Weeping Blood Valley.
The Mochizuki Frog, which is more than 10,000 years old, has unparalleled speed and strength, and the sky and the earth are shattered with every move.
The Wushan Realm is like an ant, and the Wufeng Realm is also vulnerable. The people in the martial arts paid a terrible price and finally injured the giant frog. The giant frog fled deep into the mountains and was never seen again. The martial arts also completely collapsed, and it took decades to recover.
This moon-gazing frog the size of a leather ball has at least more than a hundred years of fire, and it is just beginning to understand its wisdom.
The Mochizuki Frog suddenly felt a hint of danger and was about to jump up and escape. A fair-skinned and slender woman's palm reached over and grabbed the Mochizuki frog in her hand.
The Mochizuki Frog was completely desperate, and it "croaked" twice weakly and gave up struggling.
A moment later, the water splashed, and two figures rose from the water and leaped to the shore.
The owner of the white palm that grabbed the Mochizuki frog was a picturesque young man, and behind him was a beautiful girl of fifteen or sixteen years old. The girl's face was pale, her eyes were closed, and she knew what she had been seriously injured.
This man and woman are Wu Liang and Gongsun Shaojin, who escaped from Yuan's mansion. Wu Liang swam in the river for a long time, only to find out that Gongsun Shaojin had been hit by the enemy's vicious secret weapon, and he was poisoned, and his life was on the verge of death, so he hurriedly looked for herbs that could detoxify. I didn't find the herbs, but I caught the Mochizuki frog that can cure all kinds of poisons.
"Brother frog, I'm sorry! If it weren't for the fate of Gongsun Little Girl, I would never hurt your life! You don't want to be reborn as a Mochizuki frog in your next life, and be an obscure wildflower, and the weeds are also excellent. Wu Liang bowed slightly and said apologetically to the Mochizuki frog in his hand.
"Quack!" Mochizuki Frog obviously understood Wu Liang's words, and was so anxious that he screamed twice, struggling desperately on all fours, trying to escape from Wu Liang's clutches.
"Hehe, don't struggle! This son is merciful, and he will definitely let you suffer less sins and die a happy death. Hehe!" Wu Liang squeezed the moon-gazing frog hard, and chuckled.
Ignoring the reaction of the moon-gazing frog in his hand, Wu Liang picked up Gongsun Shaojin on his back, and under a willow tree by the river, he reclined Gongsun Shaojin under the willow tree.
At this time, the weather is slightly cool. Wu Liang picked up some dead wood and fallen leaves, lit a bonfire, and baked the wet clothes on the two of them.
"Brother Frog, it's your turn! Don't struggle, use the belly of the little beauty to make a coffin, you can be regarded as a blessing from your previous life! Don't worry, I will definitely burn money paper for you!" Wu Liang pulled out the shining dagger from his waist, shook it at the Mochizuki frog, and said with a smile.
The big eyes of the Mochizuki frog were full of horror, his limbs were kicking wildly, his mouth was screaming, and his voice was full of despair.
I only heard a miserable cry from the Mochizuki frog, and it was disemboweled, bleeding all over the ground, and it was a mess.
Wu Liang waved the dagger, running like flying, and his technique was extremely clean and neat, which was breathtaking. Disemboweling, belly breaking, gutting, skinning, watering. A series of dazzling movements, all in one go, like an antelope hanging its horns, can be found without a trace. It is also like a blistering cow, which is easy to navigate.
After dealing with the Mochizuki Frog, Wu Liang pulled out the True Martial Sword behind his back, put the Mochizuki Frog on the sword, and roasted it on the fire.
Wu Liang flipped the long sword, roasting both sides of the Mochizuki frog to a golden brown, and the hot frog oil dripped down the sword body into the fire, sizzling.
Wu Liang raised his long sword, took a deep sip of the fragrant roast frog, nodded with satisfaction, took out a paper bag from his arms, sprinkled the spices in the paper bag on the surface of the roast frog, and roasted it for a while, roasting the Mochizuki frog to a browned color, and then removed the roast frog from the fire.
Wu Liang looked back at Gongsun Shaojin, who was leaning under the big tree, and shook his head gently, his sword eyebrows furrowed slightly, quite worried.
Gongsun Shaojin's face was pale, his clothes were thin, his arms were folded on his shoulders, and he was pitiful. What's even more shocking is that Gongsun Shaojin was hit by a poison dart in his left chest, and there was a sleeve arrow stuck in the root of his thigh, all of which were fed with poison.
After Wu Liang waited for the roasted frog to cool, he tore off a small piece of frog meat and sent it to Gongsun Shaojin's mouth.
Gongsun Shaojin barely opened his eyes and said weakly: "Brother Wu Liang, people are so uncomfortable!
"No, my brother is here! Well, eat this piece of meat, close your eyes and rest for a while, and you'll be fine." Wu conscience was like a knife, and he comforted softly, and sent the frog meat to Gongsun Shaojin to the cherry mouth.
"Hmm!" Gongsun Shaojin nodded obediently, took a small bite according to the words, and didn't want to eat anymore, and fell asleep.
