Chapter Ninety-One: Eating Copper and Iron
"Dangkang, dangkang!" Listening to the strange cry of the little beast behind him, Zhou Yang'er smoked in his stomach.
Under Li Xin's warning, he left Duyuan to prepare to rescue the nest of foxes of the Gu family from the hands of the bald-tailed old Li dragon. Therefore, he simply ignored the royal mother and daughter, turned around and returned. Who knows how far it went, the dangkang beast chased after him, holding his legs but not letting go, and almost fell again, Zhou Dashenjun was angry enough.
Fu brought the little beast back to Duyuan, who knew that this time the queen mother didn't want to live or die, and insisted that the owner of the little beast was originally him, and now the thing is returned to the original owner, she doesn't want it. also said that after raising a child for fourteen years, she was about to eat her poor, but she was still like this, and I don't know how long it would take to grow up, so it was better to hand it over to Zhou Yang'er.
Since ancient times, Dangkang has been called the auspicious beast, and it is rumored that every time this beast calls "Dangkang", the world should be healthy for a year, so its name is also derived from this call. But now it seems that this legend is obviously not credible, I don't know how many times this little Dangkang has screamed in the past fourteen years, and I haven't seen Daning Ankang for a few years, but every year there are constant disasters.
However, after all, it was an ancient Rui Beast, so at first, Zhou Dashenjun listened to the words of the Queen Mother and did not object. Anyway, there is already a sheep that incarnates Aurora around him, and it is nothing to have one more Dangkang. Everyone is an ancient beast, and being a companion is also a good match.
When he was leading the sheep and the little beast to leave, Li Xin on the side said: "Stupid, you haven't even asked the queen mother, what did Kang eat to eat her, and you actually took it with you." ”
Li Junshen's reminder made Zhou Yang'er wonder, yes, this puppy is like a dangkang, even if he can eat it, how can he eat the queen mother of a country? Looking at the queen mother's serious expression, it doesn't seem to be joking. Immediately, he asked, "What does this guy eat?"
But seeing the queen mother, she replied calmly: "Well-off, don't eat anything but gold!"
Hearing this, Zhou Da Shenjun fled in the wilderness, completely giving up the idea of adopting this beast.
I don't know why, this Dangkang seems to have identified Zhou Yang'er, he can't drive it away, he can't hide it, Zhou Dashenjun has already run around this palace several times, and he even used the earth walking technique, but he can't get rid of this little thing. No matter where he goes, the little Dangkang will always follow behind him, screaming "Dangkang, Dangkang".
Especially this time, the two dangkang cries were very desolate, as if there were endless grievances. It was inevitable that Zhou Dashenjun would have some relatives in his heart, but when he thought of the Queen Mother saying that Dangkang would eat at least the same gold as his body every day, that little sympathy was suddenly thrown out of the clouds. In fact, at the beginning, when this little thing couldn't get away, he also softened his heart, but when Li Xin told him that when he became an adult, when Kang was a hundred feet long and weighed 10,000 pounds, he completely hardened his heart.
Joke, now this head is just down, if you really grow up, let alone 10,000 catties, even if you have a thousand catties of gold a day, Grandpa Yang can't bear it! Thinking of this, Zhou Yang'er looked back at the pig-headed deer who was still following him, and shouted: "Go back to your queen mother, you don't have so much gold for you to eat!"
"Dangkang, Dangkang!" opened a pair of big round eyes, and the little beast screamed even more miserably, and there seemed to be tears flowing out of his eyes, as if he was frightened, and wanted to follow but didn't dare.
"Who said that Dangkang only eats gold?" said Mao Yue'er on her shoulder suddenly. Zhou Yang'er heard that the voice was different, and looked down, but saw that the cat's eyes flashed, it was the cat mother-in-law.
The four-colored light swirled in his eyes, but he heard the cat mother-in-law say: "When Kang is known as the first craftsman of the ancient beast, do you know what the name is?" Seeing that he was confused, he said again: "When Kang beast has a strange nature, he likes to eat hardware......"
"Hardware?" Zhou Yang'er interjected: "But just now the stupid second queen mother said that it only eats gold!" Now listening to the mother-in-law's meaning, it seems that this Dangkang can not only eat gold. He was surprised in his heart, and directly interrupted the cat's mother-in-law and asked, "Can it eat all gold, silver, copper, iron, and tin?"
As the former Holy Martial Empress, it was really the first time that Granny Cat encountered something interrupted by someone, and she glanced at Zhou Yang'er unhappily and said indifferently: "Why are you so anxious, I haven't finished speaking, what are you fooling in?"
Scratching his head with a smirk, Zhou Dashenjun hurriedly shut up, but heard the mother-in-law continue: "Among the hardware, gold and tin are soft, silver, copper and iron are hard, this little beast is not yet an adult, and its teeth are not strong, so it is natural to pick soft ones to eat." And the gold taste is sweet and the tin taste is bitter, so it will become only gold. ”
Speaking of this, it saw Zhou Yang'er nodding again and again, revealing an expression that was the same, and shook his head: "What do you know! It is precisely because he only feeds gold that this Dangkang has never grown up so far." ”
"Huh?" Zhou Yang'er was a little surprised by these words, he had only heard that he would die if he didn't feed his livestock properly, and he had seen a monster that didn't grow big for the first time today. Fortunately, it is a foreign beast, if it is really replaced by ordinary cattle, sheep, pigs and dogs and other domestic animals, this feeding method will not make the owner die alive.
The more he listened to it, the more strange it became, and Zhou Dashenjun couldn't help but interject again: "Then what do you want to feed?"
Jumping off Zhou Yang'er's shoulder, and taking a closer look at the Dangkang beast opposite, the cat mother-in-law said: "Naturally, it is necessary to have all the hardware, especially the copper and iron." In this way, every time it eats, it will lose its teeth, and when it grows new teeth, its body will double in size. If the hardware is not in order, it will always remain the same. ”
Listening to his mother-in-law's words, the pimple on Zhou Dashenjun's brow became even bigger, although feeding gold said that there was a big loss in money, but it was quite convenient, this hardware ...... All kinds of gold, and silver, and brass, and iron, and tin, are ready, and this ...... It's too much trouble, right?
When the cat mother-in-law saw his expression, she knew that he was troublesome, and immediately smiled: "Boy, have you forgotten what I just said, this is Kang, but he is the first craftsman among the ancient beasts...... This kind of strange beast feeds on hardware, but it is extremely difficult to overcome hardware, so this beast will also leave a lot of hardware essence in its belly. Every year of accumulation, those surplus hardware essence is entangled and intertwined, and finally turns into five-color gold essence. In this way, in another three years, the beast will spit out the five-colored gold essence, which is a rare treasure in the world. ”
"Five-color gold essence!" Li Xin said in surprise in his left arm: "It turns out that it is such a source, no wonder I couldn't find a piece after looking for decades, but I had to be healthy to have it...... Stupid, this is hard to find in the world......"
"Five-colored gold essence! where, where?" The black brick, who had always been quiet, suddenly shouted in his heart: "Give me a piece, not too much, the nail cover is so big, as long as there is one, the brick master will no longer be afraid of fire!"
Hearing this, Zhou Dashenjun looked at the beast and his eyes had already become extremely bright, he didn't expect this little guy to be so useful, and immediately changed his expression just now, and beckoned to the little beast with a smile......
When Zhou Yang'er appeared in the open space in front of the Imperial Palace, the image looked really weird, followed by a huge goat, a strange tiger cat standing on his shoulder, and holding a pig in his arms that was not like a pig, and a deer was not like a deer.
When Kang Beast had a large brass soup spoon in his mouth, which was already covered with tooth marks, the poor little guy tried his best, but he never bit the soup spoon, and the aggrieved Kang Dangkang kept screaming.
The first to see Zhou Dashenjun was the yellow fox Gu Jinniang who was tied up in the square, and when she saw him coming from a distance, she shouted again and again: "Master help! Master help!"
