Chapter 82: The Strange Woman of Cihe
Oki Kazuko said, "If you want to see it, tell me directly, how do you know you want to see it if you don't tell me?"
The big gourd is more than three feet long, and when Chong Hezi holds it, it looks like a light weight, and when the gourd is placed on the ground, a big pit is pressed out of the ground, which shows that the weight of the gourd is amazing.
Chong Hezi said: "Here are the three elixirs I refined, I haven't eaten them yet, little fairy girl, if you want it, it doesn't hurt to give you one." ”
Jing Xiaoxian said: "Are you treating me as a human clinical trial product?"
Oki Kazuko said: "The little girl doesn't trust others too much. Although he said so, he really liked this strange little girl in his heart.
Jing Xiaoxian said: "That's true, you haven't eaten it yet, how do I know if this elixir is poisonous or not." "Giggle and laugh.
"The function of this elixir is that it can make people smaller. ”
"I've only heard that it's useful to be big, but what's the use of being small?"
Chong Hezi said: "Big is useful, small is useful, real is practical, virtual is useless, big and small is virtual, and it is always a disguise of the Tao." ”
Jing Xiaoxian said: "Don't talk to me, I don't understand." ”
Oki Kazuko said: "For example, if you want to eavesdrop on something, of course it will be very inconvenient, if you can get smaller and hide, it will be much more convenient, if you want to cross a river, if you can't swim, it will be very inconvenient, if you get smaller, you can stand on a dead branch and pass over......"
Jing Xiaoxian said, "Okay, you give it to me, I ask." He stretched out his hand.
Chong Hezi turned the gourd upside down, rolled out a golden pill from it, and landed in Jing Xiaoxian's hand.
Jing Xiaoxian opened his mouth to eat.
Han Jiangliu and the others all wanted to persuade her not to eat it, after all, Chong Hezi and himself were not particularly familiar, and besides, he had never even taken this Jin Dan, how could he guarantee that there would be no reverse side effects?
But before they could open their mouths to dissuade them, Jing Xiaoxian had already swallowed the Latent Pill into his stomach. The heart turned and the body turned concentrically, and in an instant, he turned his body as long as a finger, jumped into Chong Hezi's hand, and said, "Chong Hezi senior, your elixir is really very useful." ”
"It's not enough, you can continue to play the role of your mind and make yourself smaller," Oki said. ”
Jing Xiaoxian then continued to guide her thoughts, changed her body, and made her body as big as Taicang corn, still in human form, and others could only see clearly if they brought her in front of their eyes.
Jing Xiaoxian said, "What about this time?" The voice was still unabated, as if someone was speaking out of thin air, which seemed particularly weird.
Oki Kazuko said, "This time it's almost over. ”
Jing Xiaoxian jumped into Han Jiangliu's hand again and said, "Han Jiangliu, I can follow you at any time this time, even if you want to, you can't run away." ”
Han Jiangliu said: "I can't run again, what are you doing with me?"
Jing Xiaoxian withdrew the spell, changed her body back to its original appearance, and stood in front of Oki Kazuko.
"Little girl, don't you thank me?"
Jing Xiaoxian said, "I'm a clinical trial of your medicine, but you should thank me, how can I thank you! Okay, we don't owe each other, no one thanks anyone?" said with a grimace.
When Han Jiangliu and the others saw this latent elixir so magical, they couldn't help but raise their big fingers and praise each other, and they were already convinced that they were both respectful and respectful.
Chong Kazuko said: "I still have one in this gourd, which of you can eat it." ”
Han Jiangliu said: "I have accepted the treasure talisman from the old-timers, how can I dare to regenerate my delusions and ask for a latent elixir?"
Huaizhong and Zhou Kang pushed each other for a while, and finally decided that no one could help it.
Oki Kazuko said, "Since you don't want it, then I have to keep it." "The reason why Chong Hezi himself doesn't eat it is because these two elixirs are no longer necessary for Chong Hezi, and there is such a thing as changing the size at will, Chong Hezi can do it seventy or eighty times a day casually, and there is no need for the elixir to assist. His mana is already beyond this level of elixir.
And the reason why he still had to refine these two elixirs was purely to help Han Jiangliu and his party get through the difficulties.
As for Jing Xiaoxian, only Jing Xiaoxian accepted one, but no one was willing to accept the other, which was unexpected by Chong Kazuko.
Oki Kazuko said: "Okay, you don't want it, I'll keep it for myself, and I'll give it to someone who is destined later." I'm leaving. ”
Chong Kazuko said: "Qingniu, Qingniu, you come here." ”
There was a moo cow barking in the distance, and a green cow slowly walked from behind the trees and stopped beside Oki Kazuko.
It turns out that Chong Hezi knew the story of Lao Tzu riding a green ox through Hangu Pass to become an immortal since he was a child, and his heart was extremely yearning, so he also deliberately imitated, and also raised a green as his own mount, it turned out that this was an ordinary cow, Chong Hezi every time he made alchemy, he had to refine two parts, one for himself to eat, and the other for the green cow to eat, after a long time, this green cow also has a certain ability.
This time, he carried Chong Hezi thousands of miles to see Han Jiangliu and others, which was the credit of this green cow.
Oki Kazuko stepped onto the green cow and said, "I'm leaving, a few young people, we'll meet again in the future." ”
Everyone fell to the ground, especially Han Jiangliu and Jing Xiaoxian who were taught runes and spells by him, and they felt even more respectful of them, and said: "When we meet again in the capital in Japan, I will pay tribute to the old-timers." "They thought it was the capital, but it was not what they thought, this is a later thing, let's not talk about it for the time being.
But it was said that Chong Hezi drove the ox away and disappeared from everyone's sight.
Zhou Kang and Huaizhong said: "Congratulations to the eldest brother and the little fairy girl for getting the true inheritance of Chong Hezi's predecessors. ”
Han Jiangliu said: "Chong Hezi's predecessors are indeed good people, when he was in the capital that day, he heard his father talk about him many times, in order to save the people affected by disasters in various places, he tried to collect medicine in the mountains and rivers, and experienced the hardships of the world, but there were not many times to meet him. ”
Jing Xiaoxian said: "At first glance, he is a kind old man. ”
Huaizhong said, "Big brother, what should we do next?"
Han Jiangliu said: "The goal has not changed, it is still to reach the Flame Island in the South China Sea. ”
Everyone nodded.
Although Jing Xiaoxian was a little reluctant, she had no choice but to have a deeper relationship with Han Jiangliu, wherever Han Jiangliu went, she wanted to follow her, and she didn't want to leave for a moment.
Everyone ate some fruit for breakfast and went to the stream to drink some water.
Jing Xiaoxian deliberately said goodbye to the swimming fish in the stream: "Fish, I'm leaving, I'll come back to see you again if I have the chance." ”
Everyone continued on the southbound journey.
In the next few days, their itinerary is quite relaxed, the grass and flowers on both sides of the river, the sun is shining all the way, and there will be a small shop on the edge of the village for them to eat and stay in a short time.
After walking for a few days, I came to a small river, this small river is not as clear and transparent as the previous day, but rushes like an arrow, the sound of the water is surging, although the river is not wide, thin like a stream, but its rushing momentum, but not any big river is more turbulent.
By the river is a small stone mountain, and the caves on the mountain are criss-crossed, and it is estimated that the caves are full of wild beasts.
Turning from behind the stone came a woman, with a veil over her face, a straw hat on her head to cover the sun, and a cloak on her body, whose age and figure could not be seen clearly, let alone her physiognomy. I can only know from the embroidered shoes on her feet, and the way she walks, that she is indeed a woman.
This woman walked towards Han Jiangliu and the others.
In her hand, she carried a fishing rod.
It doesn't look like a bad person, but why is she wearing a veil?
The woman walked up to Han Jiangliu and the others, and said, "Do you want to cross the river?"
Han Jiangliu nodded yes.
The woman said, "The name of this mountain is Magnetic Mountain, and the name of this river is Magnetic River." You can't get by. ”
For some reason, Jing Xiaoxian looked at this woman very unpleasantly, and asked rhetorically, "Why can't we get by?"
The woman said: "Although the Cihe River is not wide, it has its peculiarity, and the peculiarity lies in its ability to have a huge attraction to the human body, so that when people wade in the water, they are sucked into the bottom of the water and become bait for fish, turtles, shrimps and crabs." ”
Jing Xiaoxian scoffed at this, and Zhou Kang also shook his head lightly, expressing disbelief.
The woman said, "I know you don't believe me, but you can try and see if that's the case?"
If what the woman said was false, it would not matter if she tried to do so, but what if what she said was true, then when she tried to wade into the water, the person would be sucked into the water, wouldn't it be risking his life in it?
Han Jiangliu and Zhou Kang can both swim, so both of them want to try it first. Han Jiangliu said: "Brother, let me try, I'm more sure than you." "Everyone knows that Han Jiangliu was once given a three-leaf lotus petal by the old mother of Meng Lishan, and the function of one of the back is to clear the water, and when it falls into the water, his life should be fine.
Therefore, it was agreed that Han Jiangliu would wade into the water, in order to avoid accidents, Huaizhong and Zhou Kang untied the waist knife, connected it together, and tied it to Han Jiangliu's waist river, in case it didn't work, they could pull Han Jiangliu up.
In ancient times, men's clothes were integrated from top to bottom, and when they untied their belts, their pants would not fall off and cause embarrassment like modern people.
Han Jiangliu tied his belt and walked towards the water at an extremely slow speed, while his body was exerted backwards, so that if the magnetic force theory came true, he would be out of danger immediately.
When the first foot stepped into the Ci River, he didn't feel anything, and when the second foot stepped in, both feet fell into the Ci River at the same time, something unexpected happened, and a huge and incoherent attraction suddenly appeared in front of him, which pulled Han Jiangliu forward, Han Jiangliu wanted to retreat, and the two feet didn't obey anything, just walked forward and down step by step.
