Nan Feng's heart sank when he heard this, and he asked eagerly, "Brother, how old is Shi Shi this year?"

"Seventeen." Hua Ci'er replied casually.

Nanfeng didn't ask any more questions. The gray eagle only laid one egg, and even if it hatched successfully, there would only be one young eagle. If Fourteen was ten or eight years old, that would be fine. Watching the gray eagle hatching eggs was just for fun, just for fun. Hua Qi'er wouldn't agree to it, but at the age of seventeen he was already an adult. If he wanted it, he might not be able to turn to his sworn brother.

Hua Qi'er led the two of them to walk west, "It's too late today. I'll show you some powerful guys tomorrow. I don't know some blind guy who messed up and created the seven sects. Damn it. The Orc Valley without me is really blind, ignorant, and chaotic... "

Seeing that Hua Ci'er cared so much about Jianghu's ranking, Nanfeng comforted him, "Those people have little knowledge and have never seen Big Brother's tiger and wolf army. If these beast soldiers are driven out, they will definitely run rampant and be invincible."

"You are still knowledgeable," Hua Ci'er was very happy, "What skills do those people in the world have? They just fight and show off, fighting for small profits to gain a false reputation. If they encounter a big battle, they will be timid. I am different, I am not afraid The battle is huge, so it’s best to have a big battle to fight. When these boys go out, who dares to block it, and who dares to stop it?!"

"Brother has such special powers, why don't you serve in the army? It must not be difficult to become a marquis and become a prime minister." Nanfeng asked. To be fair, Huacier's beast soldiers are really useless in the battles between rivers and lakes. Just like Hua... What Ci'er said is that it is best to use a large formation. If you drive them into battle in a large battle, you will definitely achieve miraculous results.

Hua Ci'er cursed at first, and then complained loudly, "It's okay if I don't mention it. I get angry when I mention it. In the early years, the Han court also invited me to come out and gave me the title of Laoshi Sub-officer. What kind of school captain?" , I can’t remember, they asked me to serve with the army to resist Wei and protect the country. I felt it was interesting at the time, and seeing the majesty of the armor, I went there, but I never thought that there were so many rules in the court and it was not easy to do things. I wanted cattle and horses to feed me. The wolf didn't give it to me for a long time. After waiting for seven or eight days, he gave me several carts of brown rice. The tiger and the wolf were not monks, so how could they be vegetarians? As a last resort, I went to beg for it in person. I hit him with a stick, and the guy died without even being beaten."

While Hua Ci'er was talking, he led the two of them to the foot of the Western Mountain. There was a huge courtyard here. With the west as the front, a hole was made in the mountain, doors and windows were erected. There were more than a dozen openings from south to north. These dozen openings were There are more than a dozen main rooms, and there are wing rooms on the north and south sides of the main room.

The yard is very large, with wells, millstones and other living utensils, and many big trees. It is dinner time, and smoke is rising from several rooms in the north.

"Valley Master, are you going to get the cows and horses in the end?" the fat man asked.

Hua Qi'er led the two of them to the south wing, "Forget it, I didn't even get a hair. Seeing that the children were about to starve to death, I kept doing nothing, so I simply led them to Jiangling. Cavalry camp.”

"How did the matter end in the end?" Nanfeng asked with a smile. Killing court officials and eating cavalry and horses is probably something only Hua Tic'er can do.

"I was very powerful, but they couldn't do anything to me, so they used deception to capture me. Later, I was more powerful and they didn't dare to do anything to me, so they had to let me back." Hua Ci'er pointed to the southwest corner. Wing room, "You will live there, one room per person."

Nanfeng nodded in agreement and did not ask any more questions about what Hua Cic'er said before. Hua Cic'er must have lied. It must have taken a lot of effort to save his life after he was caught by the court, but Hua Cic'er was not a loser. Will tell.

Hua Ci'er brought the two of them to the door of the wing, "You guys settle down first, and I'll order people to cook meat and rice."

"Brother, there is still some rouge and gouache here. Could you please give the rouge, gouache and clothes to the women's families." Nanfeng handed over another baggage.

"You Han people are cunning and know how to please people," Hua Cinger smiled and took the bundle and shouted at the top of his voice. The female family members came from all over the place. Hua Cinger opened the bag and divided the things on the spot.

No one dislikes gifts, and barbarians are no exception. The value of the gift itself is not important, what is important is the intention represented by the gift. Women here rarely see these delicate things, and they are very happy when they get clothes and gouache.

"It's windy outside, you go inside first," Hua Qi'er pointed to the south wind, "I'll call someone to treat you. It's not okay to cough like this. Don't cough up tuberculosis."

Nanfeng entered the first wing in the southwest, and the fat man lived next door.

The room was very empty. There was no table or stool. The floor was paved with wood. The bedding was placed in the corner. A few simple living utensils were placed at the door. There was a copper plate hanging in the middle of the room. Grease, should be the fire lamp.

As soon as Nanfeng put down his things and lit the lantern, the fat man ran over and said, "The aura of the Taoist priest appeared again just now, and went to the top of the hill to the west of the hilltop last night."

Nanfeng walked to the door and looked to the northeast. Due to the obstruction of trees, he could not see the situation in the distance from here.

"He should be setting up a formation." Nanfeng guessed.

"What formation?" Fatty asked.

Nanfeng shook his head. Taiqing Sect had many spells that could be used for positioning, and he was not sure which one the other party used.

"Do you know when the cloth will be ready?" The fat man asked again.

"Ordinary positioning spells require at least five responses. If he installs one in one night, it will take three days at the earliest." Nanfeng said.

The fat man nodded, "It's okay, don't worry, by the way, what we are wearing is too conspicuous, so we have to ask them for a pair of barbarian clothes."

While the two were talking, an old woman appeared at the door of the wing. She must be around eighty years old. Her face was wrinkled, her skin was dark and saggy. She wore a bird feather crown on her head, a linen garment and a coat on her upper body. He wore a snakeskin waistcoat and a hundred-feather culottes on his lower body. He held a snake-headed wooden staff in his left hand and a black wooden box in his right hand.

While the two of them were looking at the old woman's clothes, the old woman had been leaning on the wooden stick in her left hand and mumbling something, but they didn't know what she was mumbling.

The two of them didn't know why and looked at each other.

"Auntie, what are you doing?" the fat man asked.

The old woman didn't seem to understand the fat man's words, so she continued to hold the wooden stick at the door.

"I heard that barbarian doctors are all wizards. She might be a witch doctor." Nanfeng guessed the other party's identity based on the wooden box she was carrying in her right hand.

"It should be." Fatty said.

The old woman sang for a while and then came over to look at the two of them. The fat man pointed at the compass and said, "Don't look at me. There's nothing wrong with me. He's sick."

Nanfeng was suffering from the cold and was coughing and had a runny nose. The old woman put down the wooden box and tilted her head to look at Nanfeng. After a moment, she suddenly trembled all over and rolled her eyes, as if having a convulsion.

"She's going to dance for you, so you can do it slowly. I'll leave first." The fat man snickered and ran away.

"Auntie, there's nothing serious about me. I can prepare the medicine myself, so I won't bother you." Nanfang said, the old woman's strange behavior made his scalp tingle.

Due to the language barrier, the old woman didn't answer, she was trembling and singing, and she sang and danced around him.

"I am suffering from the cold, not the ghost." Nanfeng couldn't laugh or cry.

Naturally, the old woman didn't respond and just danced around him.

As the saying goes, it's hard to turn away kindness. This witch doctor was found by Hua Qi'er, so it was inconvenient to send her away. In desperation, he could only stand where he was and let her do whatever he wanted.

The old woman turned around the south wind three times, forward and three times in reverse. At the same time, she was mumbling words. It was fine if she was just whispering, but she might not know when she would suddenly let out a high-pitched scream and be startled. Suddenly, the frightened Nanfeng trembled.

Nan Feng didn't even count how many times she turned in circles. Finally, the old woman stopped dancing or singing. She picked up the wooden box and walked to the bed, waving to Nan Feng to come over.

Nanfeng was confused, but he had no choice but to walk over. The old woman motioned for him to take off his clothes.

This time Nan Feng quit. God knows what this old witch wants to do.

Seeing his hesitation, the old woman reached out and smoothed the area from the wind pool behind his head to the vertebrae on his back.

Nan Feng understood. This was to give him scraping. At this time, scraping was often used when he was suffering from wind and cold. Scraping could expel evil spirits, detoxify, regulate qi and activate blood circulation. It was more commonly used and more effective than taking medicine.

"Gua Sha, just scrape. Why are you doing such a great job?" Nan Feng muttered and walked over, took off his shirt and lay down on the mattress.

The old woman sat next to Nanfeng, opened the wooden box, and took out the medicine.

Nanfeng was not at ease with this old woman, so he tilted his head to see what she had brought out. The first thing he found was a small jar the size of a fist. When he opened the lid, there was some white grease inside.

Gua Sha requires Gua Sha oil. When Nanfeng saw the oil, he was sure that the other party was going to Gua Sha, so he felt relieved.

Just as he was about to turn around and lie down, the old woman took out another object, which was an oblate object with a gray-black color.

Seeing this, Nanfeng's heartbeat suddenly accelerated. The tortoise shell, what the old woman used to scrape was actually a piece of tortoise shell!

Look carefully, there are words, there are words on the tortoise shell...
