7-247 I have never tasted this in my life
7-247 I have never tasted this in my life
The water in the swamp was very deep, and every three feet there were square "land" with a diameter of three feet, which were evenly distributed, like a chess grid. These "lands" are small at the top and large at the bottom, and the depths are submerged under the thick green sewage.
Li Hong landed on the tip of the artemisia grass growing on a small "land", and his body rose and fell slightly with the artemisia grass. He bent down and pulled a handful of artemisia grass, bringing out large bunches of grass roots and clumps of pitch-black sludge. Li Hong simply jumped into the artemisia grass.
In the thud, his feet sank deep into the mud, Li Hong didn't use any tricks, and coldly watched the dirty water get deeper and deeper than his white silk shoes. About the time I reached the calf base, my feet stopped sinking and the soles of my feet stepped on solid hard ground.
Bending down and reaching out to the soles of his feet, Li Hong was dumbfounded. The tentacles are cold and smooth, and seem to ...... It's jade!
Splashing muddy water, Li Hong plucked all the artemisia grass on this small "land", and finally found that he was standing on the top of a platform.
The platform is made of black jade, in the shape of a square trapezoid, small at the top and large at the bottom, the bottom is deeply embedded in the deep swamp, and the upper end is half a foot away from the water, surrounded by a fence, and the inside is silted with mud. Weed seeds such as Artemisia grass tend to fall into the mud and take root and sprout, growing patches of uniformly sized grass.
As far as the eye can see, the entire long swamp is full of such small platforms. I don't know if it's an illusion or if it's true, the small platform seems to be moving slowly with the sewage.
Looking at this huge chessgame-like layout, Li Hong was overjoyed, and he had clearly found the right place! If he guessed correctly, this was the entrance to another ancient god's palace.
It's just that finding the door and getting in takes a lot of trouble.
The three of them flew high in the air again, viewing the entire layout by the light of the fire phoenix.
Li Hong said with some embarrassment: "The ancient gods like to use black jade to set up prohibitions, it must be true, this place is definitely related to a certain ancient god palace." The question now is, what exactly is the prohibition here? Is it a riddle?"
The fire shone on Chu Xi's pale jade face, she frowned slightly, stretched out her right palm and slightly supported her right cheek, revealing a thoughtful look.
She said, "Do you think this layout is a little familiar? How do I think I've seen it somewhere?"
Li Hong was stunned: "No, where have you actually seen the forbidden arrangement of the ancient gods?" Could it be the Ancient Immortal Field?" Having said that, Li Hong knew that there was no similar arrangement in the Ancient Immortal Field, otherwise he would not be able to recognize it.
Chu Xi shook his head: "It's not Xiantian, it's somewhere else, it seems to be ...... By the way, it's in Jiulimen, it seems that I've seen something similar in Jiulimen a long time ago, it's been too long...... Think about it. She looked down in thought.
Li Hong thought about it, and the white shadow flashed to the platform where the artemisia grass was pulled out just now, and was about to jump down in one go, when Chu Xi shouted: "I can't do it!"
Li Hong almost moved, looked up and said in surprise: "Why? Anyway, there is no movement, why don't I try to kick this platform harder, maybe there will be movement, and then I will know what to do." ”
"Aren't you afraid of triggering the ancient god ban?" Chu Xi asked rhetorically.
"This ......" Li Hong groaned, knowing that what Chu Xi said was right.
"Let's not be busy for now, first, I want to think again, and second, I want to wait until dawn to see, maybe there will be another discovery under the sun. ”
Chu Xi's proposal Chu Xiong was the first to raise his hands in agreement, and he said loudly: "Yes, I think we should rest for the night, the ground here is evil, even if the ban is triggered during the day, it is better than at night, God knows what weird things here are staring at Lao Tzu!" As he spoke, he turned his gaze to the swampy shore near the edge of the cliff, where the artemisia grass was denser and kept shaking, and there must be something hidden in it.
Li Hong was as good as a stream, escaped back into the air, and when he saw Chu Xiong's expression, he smiled: "I'll grab some food!"
"Delicious?!" Chu Xiong's eyes lit up.
"Don't come with you, it's too noisy, that thing must have escaped. Li Hong winked mysteriously at Chu Xiong and walked away.
In mid-air, Chu Xi was still thinking hard about the chess-grid-like square jade platform below. This fire phoenix can last for an hour, if Patriarch Ji Lianzi saw Li Hong actually using the fire phoenix to illuminate in the fairy world, he would definitely stomp his feet hard, and scold Li Hong for being unfilial to his descendants, disrespectful stunts, and overkill......
Late at night, a bright bonfire was lit next to the river valley, and Chu Xi and Chu Xiong sat on the ground, waiting for Li Hong's so-called food.
After a long time, Li Hongcai came out of the crack in the ridge stone, holding two white and tender chicken thigh-like things in his hands, first rinsing in the clear river water for a while, and then strung them with branches, and the white shadow flashed to the fire and began to roast.
Chu Xi Chuxiong looked at it, the chicken thighs were also a little bigger, like a leg of lamb, white and tender under the firelight, and the meat was so tender that it was almost pinched. With Li Hong's roasting, one side gradually turned yellow, and the fragrant smell came out, which smelled very good.
"What is this?" the two looked at in amazement.
"Good thing!" Li Hong blinked mysteriously.
But after a while, the "chicken thigh" was already cooked, Li Hong tore off a small piece and handed it to Chu Xiong, "You taste it, it's very fragrant!"
"Okay!" Chu Xiong took it quickly, put it in his mouth and chewed it twice, and then his eyes widened: "What kind of meat is this? It is so fragrant! The more you chew, the more fragrant it becomes, and there is a fragrance of artemisia grass, I have never tasted this in my life!"
He actually dropped the sentence, Chu Xi bent over with a smile, her eyes narrowed into crescents, she stretched out her hand, and said coquettishly: "I want it too!"
Li Hong shook his head, "The second brother can't eat it." ”
"Why?" Chu Xi's eyes widened in surprise.
Li Hong looked at Chu Xi's delicate face and smiled: "I'm afraid you're dirty." You can guess what this thing is, and then you can eat and play with it. ”
Chu Xiong came back to his senses, and his eyes were round: "What is it? Don't tell Lao Tzu that it's a slug!"
At the mention of slugs, Chu Xi couldn't help but feel nauseous even if he smelled the fragrance, and when he thought that Li Hong didn't give him food, a warm current flowed in his heart.
Even a small concern still hit Chu Xi's heart, she looked at Li Hong, and a thousand words choked up in her heart.
Li Hong didn't know what Chu Xi's little daughter was thinking, and joked with Chu Xiong: "You eat all these two 'chicken thighs' first, and I'll get another one and you'll understand." First of all, this thing is not a slug, and it is not poisonous, we have eaten it before!"
As soon as Chu Xiong said this, he was immediately relieved, and he smiled and said, "What are you afraid of! Take it, I'm just a little hungry!"
The wind swept away, Hula was sweet and chewed, and the two "chicken thighs" were immediately settled, Chu Xiong was still unsatisfied, and pushed Li Hong again and again: "Go quickly, go quickly! It's a pity that there is no oil, if you brush the layer of oil and sprinkle some salt particles and then roast, the gods will not give it!"
Li Hong laughed and floated down the crack in the stone.
After only half a moment, Li Hong returned, carrying a huge green slimy thing on his shoulder. This thing was tied by Li Hong's immortal rope, with two giant eyes protruding, and there was a muffled sound in the belly, but it couldn't struggle at all.
Chu Xiong stood up and almost kicked over the fire: "Grandma, a bear! Such a big toad!"
That thing is a kind of toad squatting in the mountain stream, commonly known as "stone chicken", it is extremely delicious, and when Li Hong and Xiong Boy - the now famous Chu Xiong often caught and roasted in the mountains to make tooth sacrifices. It's just that the size of this stone chicken is as big as a small table, and it's really bigger. The body was covered with green bumps the size of a teacup, and the two eyes were the size of copper bells, flickering and flickering, and they were bound by the fairy rope and couldn't move, and they also made a muffled and wailing sound.
It turned out that Li Hong had discovered that there were countless xenomorphic stone chickens hidden in the artemisia grass long ago, and they were extremely huge.
Chu Xi immediately retreated, and said angrily: "Such a disgusting thing is also used to eat, and you still lie to Chu Xiong." Chu Xiong, why don't you hurry up and beat him?!" What he said was fierce, but Chu Xi was sweet in his heart, secretly thinking, he really knew his heart, and he was very considerate to stop himself, otherwise he was afraid that he would vomit upside down at this time.
Unconsciously, Chu Xi already had a smile on his face.
Chu Xiong didn't panic when he came back to his senses, rolled up his sleeves and shouted: "Come on, come on! This time I'll clean up, and I'll definitely bake it better than you." I think there was nothing to eat when Jiu left the door, and our family even roasted the fire rats, not to mention the big stone chicken!"
Chu Xi turned his back and giggled. Later, the two brothers disemboweled the thing, and even the liver of the stone chicken was not wasted, and the oil was roasted and dripped on the four stone chicken thighs and then roasted, and the aroma was extremely attractive.
The two brothers munched on it, and Chu Xiong said in surprise: "Does this stone chicken eat artemisia grass? The meat flavor has the fragrance of artemisia grass, which is really delicious." ”
Li Hong munched indistinctly: "I can't say it, you definitely won't dare to eat it anymore." ”
"I've figured it out, how can a manly man dare not eat. Say it!" Chu Xiong said boldly.
Li Hong said this, Chu Xiong listened to it and his face was ugly, and the hand holding the stone chicken's thigh paused at the edge of his mouth, and it was not not that he did not eat.
Chu Xi was really curious, and couldn't help but lean over and ask, "What does this big stone chicken eat to grow so big?"
Li Hong pointed at Chu Xiong and smiled: "Just look at his face and know that it must not be a good thing, so you'd better not know." I'm afraid you're disgusting!"
Chu Xi smacked with a smile, looking at Chu Xiong's strange face and couldn't help but laugh, the silver bell-like giggle was like a clear mountain spring flowing through Li Hong's heart.
At noon, the three of them went down again into the cracks in the ridge.
The sun was clear, and the square-like platforms in the swamp could be seen more clearly.
The dark green and thick sewage is indeed flowing slowly, and the bottom of these trapezoidal platforms is actually against each other, that is to say, there is a black jade platform in this long swamp, not as a whole, but composed of countless square platforms about six feet in diameter, the upper ends gradually shrinking, and the exposed water is just three feet apart.
It's clearly some kind of mechanism. Thick green sewage is flowing slowly between the platforms.
This place is located in the southern wilderness with abundant rainfall, and the year is deep, so this water should be accumulated by rainwater, if the water is drained, the exposed water must be a very spectacular huge black jade organ component.
As far as the eye can see, the entire black jade platform is composed of sixty black jade trapezoids. It is exactly rectangular in shape and fills the central part of the entire rift.
Chu Xi looked at it again and again, and suddenly exclaimed, "I remember where I saw this!"
She turned to look at Li Hong, her cheeks flushed with excitement.
