The dream came again.
Dripping with blood, the one-armed man from the purple side broke the door and rushed in.
The flying broken corpse was smashed down on the head and face. The one-armed man smiled and slashed at the head with a knife. A small silver light came from the slanting stab and blocked the light of the knife.
Drenched in sweat, I suddenly woke up from my dream!
Before dawn, Chu Tian wore a fish skin waterbag, walked out of the back door of his yard, turned around a few rugged rocks, and arrived at the Baimang River. There are green pines and cypresses standing on both sides here, and there are towering cliffs on the opposite side of the river. There are no boats passing by on the river, so no one can see him moving.
I squatted beside the water and was stunned for a while. A very thin ripple quickly swept over from the center of the river.
Still more than ten feet away from the shore, a sharp black horn about a foot long cut through the water, and then a ferocious snake head the size of a bucket slowly poked out. The two dots of green eyes on the dark snake head shone with a cold and ruthless light. When it saw Chu Tian, the coldness in its eyes quietly disappeared.
A snake body seven or eight feet long stretched out from the river. The black snake came close to Chu Tian and licked Chu Tian's nose with its long snake tongue.
"Brother Tian, I haven't been seen for a while." Black Snake's neck twitched, and a sharp voice came: "What's the matter with contacting me so urgently? I just happened to be passing by, otherwise I'm afraid it will take three or five days for someone to come."
Chu Tian took out a crudely made jade bottle from his sleeve. He pulled out the cork and poured a Leopard Fetal Pill out of it. The withered yellow pill exuded a pungent but meaningful aura. The black snake's huge head came over and said in surprise: "Yo? Pill?"
"Six pills in total!" Chu Tian said solemnly: "Send it back to Mr. Hu to see if he can figure out a recipe. Bring me some medicinal materials next time. Agou and Aqiao have recently reached the pass and need medicinal help. Chongguanli."
Putting the Leopard Fetal Pill back into the jade bottle, sealing the cork tightly, Black Snake Xinzi rolled up and held the bottle in his mouth. He nodded to Chu Tian and said softly: "Don't worry, I'll go back right away. Hiss, the medicinal materials in our warehouse are piled up like a mountain, but there are too few pill prescriptions. Six Leopard Fetal Pills..."
The black snake turned around and its long snake body slowly submerged into the river.
"Scared, Mr. Hu said that his craftsmanship has improved recently, but don't expect too much. The eight Huiyuan Pills you sent back last time were ruined by him. These six Leopard Fetal Pills may be able to become , maybe not."
"But a few days ago, your tiger father was lucky enough to catch and kill a big thousand-year-old ginseng doll. I will bring it to you when I get back. Without the elixir, although 60 to 70% of the potency of the medicine will be wasted, it will still give you three dolls. It’s a good time to replenish it.”
The black snake submerged into the river. The snake's body, which was as thick as a bucket, swayed hard, and a faint black light erupted from the top corner of its head. The resistance of the river to him suddenly disappeared. The black snake swooped along the bottom of the river for hundreds of feet, and with a few twists it flew for more than ten miles.
In just a dozen breaths, the black snake had already rushed out of the mouth of the Baimang River and smoothly entered the Dalong River, where the water was several times greater. The black snake swam down the river quickly toward the southeast of the lower reaches of the Dalong River. Thousands of miles down the river, one can see vast mountains and forests with various scenes, and it is a key place at the junction of three states.
Chutian squatted quietly by the river for a while, and then looked up to the sky and wailed in a low voice: "Six leopard fetal pills! They haven't even been warmed up yet! Mr. Fox, Mr. Fox, you have ruined things again this time. , I can’t figure out the recipe for the elixir. Next time there is something good, Agou, Aqiao and I will definitely eat it ourselves first, and we won’t give you a single elixir hair again!”
There were already noises coming from the yard behind, the snorting of horses, the sound of wheels hitting the ground, and the exclamation of Lifu who was called for help, all of which broke the tranquility of the early morning.
Chutian stood up and walked back to his yard along the path. He saw a dozen cart drivers and dozens of laborers crowded in the yard, marveling at the ten large carp with golden scales crowded together in the pond in the yard.
"Dad, is this more than one foot?"
"Ah, I haven't seen such a big fish in Baimangjiang River for many years."
"Isn't that right? This river mouth is definitely untenable. You have to go upstream where the water is the strongest, the deepest, and the most dangerous to find such giants!"
"Good boy, Chu Ba Tou's action is indeed worthy of his reputation. In just two days, he actually managed to get ten golden-scaled carps like this."
"It's strange, it's a coincidence. How come these ten giant carp with golden scales are all of the same length and look almost the same? Could it be that they are ten brothers from the same birth?"
Chu Tian's steps suddenly froze when he just walked into the yard, and he almost hit his head on the ground.
Aqiao, who was squatting on the side of the well railing and drinking fish soup, sneezed suddenly and almost choked to death on the fish soup.
Agou, who had already had breakfast and was standing aside with the mace, had his mouth cracked, revealing two sharp canine teeth, and he was grinning like he was about to have a seizure.
Lord Shu, who was standing proudly on the eaves, looking down at these "ignorant mortals" with a smile, twitched and almost rolled off the eaves.
Ten giant carp with golden scales look almost identical? Even the length is exactly the same!
Lord Mouse stuffed his long tail into his mouth and tore his tail with his two shiny front teeth. He wanted to die. I missed it, I missed it. I was only focused on "creating" ten big carps, but I forgot about this for a while!
Chu Tian coughed heavily, stamped his feet, and walked to the back of the crowd with his hands behind his back and a dignified expression on his face: "What are you making all this noise about? Aren't all carps born at the same age? Could it be that they are just like humans, and who has more children?" There are several warts, but who is still a leprous? You can tell the difference!"
With a trace of embarrassment and anger, Chu Tian shouted arrogantly and unreasonably: "Carps that are almost the same length naturally have the same appearance. How can you, a bunch of thieves and men, see any difference? Or, let me let you be the fish stall. head?"
Pulling out the eyebrow-leveling stick from the weapon rack, Chu Tian waved the stick vigorously, causing all the big men in the yard to start working: "Work, work, quickly load the car and send it to Yishan Academy! Who delayed the matter? This The monthly share of his family’s share will be charged extra!”
A group of coachmen and laborers began to work without touching the ground. One by one, the specially-made four-wheeled carriages entered the yard. The laborers jumped into the pond and fished out golden scales one by one with a large net made of thick hemp rope. The big carp carefully sent them into the water tank on the carriage.
Even with Chu Tian standing by to frighten them, these warriors still couldn't help but say: "It's strange, how can such a big carp be so obedient and obedient? It doesn't even beat at all? Could it be that it's dead? But the gills of this fish can't be opened and closed very well. But it’s also fast!”
Chu Tian closed his eyes.
How do you let these carp struggle? They are foreign objects created by Master Mouse. They probably don’t have a soul in their brains. They are complete idiots. They have no response to external stimulation. How can you let them struggle
Agou beside him coughed lightly, and a trace of animalistic aura that ordinary people couldn't feel spread out.
