If I add money to become a layman, I can cultivate immortality

Chapter 99: The phoenix species left in the world: Angry Chicken

The frightening night finally passed, and before I knew it, the sky turned white.

Ding Xiu, Partridge Whistle and others sat around in the yard, eating big cakes and chatting.

However, Luo Laowai and Chen Yulou were arguing quietly in a room in the backyard.

"Boss Chen, what are you thinking? Why did you tell that Partridge Whistle about our treasure hunt in Pingshan? And invite him to join us in the treasure hunt?"

"Luo Shuai, since you have heard the news, how could brother Partridge Whistle not know about it? Even if I don't invite him, he will go to Pingshan to hunt for treasures himself."

"Brother Chen, there are only three of them, what can we accomplish?"

"Shuai Luo, you don't understand this. We all know in this industry that the captain who touched the gold relied on his god, the one who lifted the mountain relied on his strength, and the one who moved the mountain relied on his skills..."

With Chen Yulou's sharp tongue, Luo Laowai was quickly defeated and reluctantly agreed to let the Mountain Moving Sect join the treasure hunt.

According to his idea, even if he really had to give a share of the treasure to the Mountain Moving Sect in the end, it would probably be [-]%. After all, Partridge Whistle and the others only had three people.

This is completely like judging a gentleman's belly with a villain's heart.

Chen Yulou has long said that the Banshan sect went to the tomb not for obvious reasons, but only to find beads, but how could Luo Laowai believe it?

He believed in the philosophy that people die for money and birds die for food.

Of course, it is impossible for the three brothers and sisters of Partridge Whistle to say that they will not touch the things in the tomb at all. After all, they have been traveling around for many years and they still have to spend money.

It's just that they are not greedy and only take a little gold and silver, which is enough for daily expenses.

Later, under the leadership of Rong Bao Exiao, the group climbed mountains and waded through rivers, and finally saw the legendary Pingshan Mountain at noon.

Standing on the high cliff and looking around, the mountains are majestic and green.The mountains are shrouded in clouds and mist, with different shapes and extremely psychedelic.

A river meanders in the mountains, like a giant dragon circling, and like a jade belt surrounding it, making the scenery in front of you extremely beautiful, like a fairyland on earth.

But what is even more shocking is the Pingshan Mountain surrounded by mountains, like stars over the moon.

Even though Ding Xiu was mentally prepared, he still couldn't help but marvel at the miraculous craftsmanship of nature.

Seen from a distance, the shape of Pingshan looks like a finely carved treasure bottle half buried under the rocks.

The most amazing thing is that there are wisps of colorful mist surrounding Pingshan, just like a rainbow.There is even a wisp of rainbow rising from the top of the mountain, making it even more mysterious and spectacular, a veritable jewel.

Everyone was immersed in the rare beauty in the world, and seemed to have forgotten that they were here to hunt for treasures.

"Boss, there is really evil in this mountain. The fog is actually colorful."

Luo Laowai came to his senses and couldn't help but say something to Chen Yulou.

Chen Yulou smiled: "Luo Shuai, this is called Baoqi!"

"Baoqi?" Luo Laowai looked surprised and laughed loudly: "Baoqi, good! Hahaha!"

The treasure energy is soaring to the sky, can there be any less treasures left?
Unexpectedly, Chen Yulou added: "It may also be evil spirit."

His words were mostly joking, but Ding Xiu added: "Brother Chen is right. These colorful mists may seem like a treasure, but they are actually extremely dangerous."

"Oh?" Chen Yulou raised his eyebrows and asked sideways, "Brother, what do you have in mind?"

Ding Xiu explained: "Since this Pingshan Mountain was the royal alchemy place, there must have been a lot of elixirs, herbs, gold and stones left behind.

And this mountain has been rich in all kinds of poisons since ancient times. With these elixirs, medicinal herbs and gold stones, the entire underground palace has formed a huge, natural poison breeding ground..."

Upon hearing the word "gu", Chen Yulou and others' expressions changed.

Since ancient times, there have been two mysterious professions: one is to drive away corpses, and the other is to raise poisonous insects.

Chen Yulou knew a bit about driving away corpses, not to mention Luo Laowai, who had also driven away corpses back then.

The mountains in this area are rugged, transportation is inconvenient, and in many places there are no roads at all. Once someone dies in a foreign country, it is extremely difficult for relatives and friends to transport their body back to their hometown.

This is why the business of exorcising corpses was born.

First of all, it is necessary to ensure that the corpse does not rot before it can be returned to its hometown intact.

In this regard, the corpse chasers have their own methods.

They use secret techniques to make the corpse stand stiff, that is, pouring some special corpse poison into the corpse to make it stiff, like a zombie, so as to keep it from decaying for a long time.

The corpses that need to be transported are usually put in the Yi Zhuang for storage, and when a certain number is gathered, the corpses are gathered together.

The secret is kept secret, and most people have no idea why the corpse follows the corpse chaser.

However, most people are just curious, taboo, and feel mysterious and unbelievable about driving corpses, but when talking about "gu", they turn their faces to it and fear it like a tiger.

There are many folk legends about Gu, and they are basically negative impressions.

Because this thing is so evil, it kills people invisible, makes life worse than death, makes people crazy, or makes people controlled...

The most popular ones are the golden silkworm voodoo, love flower voodoo, epilepsy voodoo, snake voodoo, etc.

Chen Yulou was stunned for a while and couldn't help but murmured: "Brother, you mean that there may be a lot of Gu insects in this bottle of mountain palace?"

Ding Xiu replied: "I'm afraid it's more terrifying than the poisonous insects. After all, in the past hundreds of years, those poisonous creatures have devoured a lot of herbs, gold and stones, biting and devouring each other. I'm afraid they have already mutated.

The colorful mist in this mountain is probably not a precious aura, but a large amount of poisonous mirage aura gathered together. "

"This..." Chen Yulou couldn't help but frowned.

"I agree with Brother Ding's statement." Partridge Whistle said: "I have encountered such a situation once in southeastern Guizhou, but the fog there is not as thick as here."

Upon hearing this, Chen Yulou couldn't help but glance at the partridge whistle and asked: "I wonder what happened to my brother?"

Partridge Whistle replied: "At that time, I took my junior brother and junior sister to explore an ancient tomb, and when I saw Caiwu, I thought it was treasure energy.

Unexpectedly... the ancient tomb has turned into a cave of ten thousand snakes, filled with all kinds of venomous snakes.

We quickly retreated.

However, I still refused to give up and told my junior brothers and sisters to wait at a distance while I took some precautions to prepare myself for exploring the ancient tomb again.

Unexpectedly, when I came to the valley where the ancient tomb was located again, I saw an unforgettable spectacle..."

At this point, Partridge Whistle couldn't help but stop, seeming to be lost in memories.

Luo Laowai looked anxious and couldn't help but ask: "Don't be too pretentious, what kind of spectacle did you see?"

Partridge Whistle took a breath and continued: "I saw a huge black snake, with gleaming black scales all over its body, and a red flesh crown on its head..."

"A flesh crown?" Chen Yulou couldn't help but exclaimed: "It is recorded in ancient books that a snake has a flesh crown, which is a sign that it will turn into a dragon."

The partridge whistle sighed: "Whether it can turn into a dragon or not, it is certain that it will become a spirit. At that time, it was densely surrounded by various snakes, and the snake heads were all pointing in the same direction, which was the big black snake. .

The big black snake was shrouded in colorful mist, opening its mouth and breathing in and out, as if it was practicing. "

"Hiss... so evil?" Luo Laowai couldn't help but look surprised.

"It wasn't until then that I realized that those colorful mists were not precious energy at all. They should be the same as the colorful mist in the bottle mountain. They were poisonous mirage evil spirits..."

Hearing these words, Rong Bao Yixiao was even more frightened and said in a trembling voice: "Masters, you have also seen this Pingshan Mountain. Let's leave quickly."

Upon hearing this, Mr. Luo glared with crooked eyes and shouted with a fierce look: "Where are we going? Where are we going? I came here just for this Pingshan Mountain."

Rong Bao Exiao was so frightened that his body trembled and he muttered: "I...I have to go home, otherwise my mother will be worried."

Luo Laowai cursed and walked over: "You little brat, believe it or not, I'll kill you with one shot?"

"Hey, why are you so mean?" Hong Gu glared at Luo Laowai dissatisfied, then pulled Rong Bao Exiao to her side and comforted him: "Ignore him, we will take you back together."

"Hey, Miss Hong, are you deliberately trying to undermine Lao Luo?"

Ding Xiu was also a little annoyed with this guy. He couldn't help but glance at Luo Laowai and said, "Luo Shuai, he is just a child. What's the point of being mean to him?"

When Chen Yulou saw that the atmosphere was not right, he quickly advised him: "Luo Shuai, you should restrain yourself somewhat, be kind and make money, and stop yelling at every turn.

Now, everyone has also seen the situation in Pingshan. Why don't Luo Shuai call the brothers to wait? The building can be used as a temporary camp..."

"Okay!"

Luo Laowai immediately beamed.

Chen Yulou turned around and ordered: "Guaizi, go down the mountain immediately and inform Adjutant Yang and the brothers down the mountain."

"Yes!"

Huamaguai responded, then turned around and left.

"Let's go back to Zanguan first and discuss it carefully."

On the way, Hong Gu subconsciously asked Rong Bao Exiao: "Little brother, from whom did you learn this Mandarin?"

Rong Bao Exiao replied: "He is an old medicine farmer in our village."

"Old medicine farmer?"

"Yes, everyone in the village calls him that. People in our village don't dare to go into Pingshan to collect herbs. They only dare to collect herbs outside. Only the old herb farmer dares to go."

Chen Yulou couldn't help but ask: "Does this old drug farmer have any special skills?"

Rong Bao Exiao smiled: "Every time he goes to collect herbs, he always takes a chicken with him. That chicken is terrible. Even the cows in our village are afraid of it..."

"What kind of chicken is so powerful?"

"I don't know, but that chicken looks really big..."

Hearing these words, Partridge Whistle couldn't help but feel moved in his heart.

When he walked to Changuan, Rong Bao Exiao timidly said: "Masters, I really want to go home."

Luo Laowai glared and was about to get angry, but Ding Xiu raised his hand and patted Rong Bao Exiao on the head and said with a smile: "Go back, we will find you in the village when we have time."

"Thank you..." Rong Bao Exiao smiled gratefully and waved to Hong Gu again: "Goodbye, sister!"

"Yeah!" Hong Gu also smiled and waved.

that night.

Partridge Whistle sat at the stone table in the courtyard, looking up into the distance, wondering what he was thinking.

After a while, Ding Xiu came over.

"Brother Yang, are you thinking about Pingshan?"

Partridge Whistle came back to his senses, smiled at Ding Xiu, and replied: "I was thinking about what that little brother said."

"Oh? You mean the old medicine farmer's chicken?"

"Yes! There has been the totem of the phoenix blackbird since ancient times, and the place names are often related to the ancient legend of the phoenix. Laoxiong Ridge belongs to Nuqing County, and Nuqing is the symbol of the phoenix.

It is recorded in ancient books that there is a special kind of bird in Nuqing, named Nuqing Chicken.

Although this chicken is called a chicken, it is fundamentally different from ordinary domestic chickens. It is a phoenix species.

The Nuqing Chicken is huge and equipped with colorful feathers and golden claws. Wherever it goes, poisonous things cannot be avoided.

The golden rooster's crowing of dawn is meant to distinguish between yin and yang and black and white, while the angry rooster is a phoenix species and is the nemesis of poisonous insects and evil spirits. Its crow can break away evil spirits, poisonous mirages and drive away ghosts.

I always thought that the Nu Qing Chicken had long been extinct, but today I heard from the little brother that the chicken in the old medicine farmer's house was probably extraordinary, and maybe it was the legendary Nu Qing Chicken. "After hearing these words, Ding Xiu gestured with his thumbs sincerely.

He is worthy of being the leader who can move mountains. With this knowledge alone, few people can match him.

"Brother Yang, in that case, why don't we go to the old medicine farmer's place tomorrow to see if that chicken is a Nuqing chicken."

"Yes!" Partridge Whistle nodded: "That's what I meant."

"What are you two talking about?"

At this time, Chen Yulou came over happily.

Ding Xiu smiled and said, "We are talking about a chicken."

"Chicken?" Chen Yulou was stunned for a moment, then said with a meaningful look on his face: "What kind of chicken deserves the two of you to have such a happy chat?"

"Angry Chicken!"

"Nu Qing...chicken?" Chen Yulou knew that he would be wrong, and said in surprise: "Is there really such a thing in the world?"

Apparently, he had also heard of the legend of the Angry Chicken.

The Partridge Whistle replied: "If there is any, let's go check it out tomorrow and we will find out."

"Yeah, that's fine!" Chen Yulou nodded: "If it's really the Angry Chicken, it can just restrain the poisonous insects, so it will be safer for us to explore the underground palace."

Later, the three sat together to discuss some details.

According to Partridge Whistle, regardless of whether the chicken is an Angry Chicken or not, he might as well wait a few more days. He is going to ask Hualing to prepare some more detoxifying and antidote medicines to take with him to be prepared.

Chen Yulou responded: "Okay, I'll wait for the brothers to arrive at the Changuan Hall. I'll ask Hong Gu to come with me. She can help with anything."

Early the next morning, Ding Xiu, Hong Gu, and Partridge Shao brothers and sisters left Zanguan together and came to the village again to find Rong Bao Exiao.

"You want to find an old medicine farmer? I will take you there."

Rong Bao Exiao doesn't like Luo Laowai, but he is still very enthusiastic about Hong Gu and Ding Xiu.

Soon after, Rong Bao Exiao took Ding Xiu and others to a small courtyard on the slope.

There was a strong medicinal fragrance filling the courtyard, and a thin old man was bending over to dry the herbs in the bamboo sieve.

Rong Bao Exiao introduced: "He is the famous old medicine farmer in our village. That is his silly son Mu Jiesongka. He has very powerful medicine here."

The partridge whistle raised his hand and said, "Old sir, we want to find some medicine..."

In fact, the main purpose of his visit was to confirm whether the chicken raised by the old medicine farmer was the legendary Nuqing Chicken. Of course, the medicinal herbs were also needed.

As a result, the old drug farmer walked aside without saying a word.

"Eh? Why is this person like this?" Hong Gu muttered with some dissatisfaction.

Rong Bao Exiao smiled: "He is such a weird person. It's okay. Sister, sit down and drink tea."

Although the old medicine farmer didn't answer, he had already walked to the table and sat down, opened several tea bowls, and poured the teapot one by one.

The old foreigner and Hua Ling walked around the yard curiously, looking at the dried herbs.

Especially Hua Ling, she is good at pharmacology. As soon as she saw these herbs, she knew that the old herb farmer was not simple, and she actually collected many rare herbs.

Partridge Shao, Ding Xiu, and Hong Gu walked to the table and sat down.

Rong Bao Exiao ran to tease the silly Mujiesongka.

"Do you want medicine?" The old medicine farmer glanced at the partridge whistle and asked.

"Yes!" Partridge Whistle nodded.

The old medicine farmer glanced at Hong Gu subconsciously and asked, "Do you want... powerful medicine?"

"Yes, the most powerful medicine."

Ding Xiu remained silent and drank tea slowly.

The two people obviously had a misunderstanding. The powerful medicine mentioned by Partridge Whistle was a medicine that could deal with poisonous insects, but the powerful medicine understood by the old medicine farmer was really a powerful medicine.

From time to time, men would come to the village and ask for that powerful medicine.

It is said that after taking this medicine, a man will become as powerful as Zhao Zilong, galloping on horseback, fighting in and out, killing the enemy until the enemy abandons their helmets, falls, flowers and water, and cries for mercy.

"Use it with her?" The old drug farmer glanced at Hong Gu again.

Partridge Whistle was stunned, and subconsciously replied: "If the effect is good, it will be used by many people."

"For many people? Oh, I understand..." The old drug farmer smiled meaningfully, then walked into the house and took out a small wooden box. There were three black pills in the box.

Partridge Whistle looked at it and asked, "Is this the most powerful medicine?"

"Of course, my medicine is the most powerful. I guarantee that if you use it once, you will want to use it a second time...ten yuan!"

Ding Xiu glanced at the old medicine farmer with some relief. This guy had the habit of adding money to his family.

Honggu was surprised: "How much? Ten yuan? Is your medicine made of gold?"

The old medicine farmer said proudly: "Girl, not everyone can prepare this medicine. One of the herbs must be picked from Pingshan Mountain.

There are many poisonous insects in the mountains. If you are bitten by them, you will definitely die!

In the area around here, except for me, no one dares to go there, and if I do, I will have to die..."

Finally, here comes the point.

Ding Xiu immediately pretended to ask: "Old sir, why is this?"

"Haha..." The old medicine farmer turned his head and glanced at the chicken shed behind him and said with a smile: "It's all thanks to this precious chicken at home. With it, the beasts and poisonous insects in the mountains have to stay away."

"So awesome? I wonder if the old gentleman could call this precious chicken out earlier so that we can open our eyes?"

"Oh oh oh..."

At this moment, a loud rooster crow suddenly echoed in the courtyard, which made people feel refreshed.

Partridge Whistle's eyes lit up and he glanced sideways quickly.

"Dad, do you want to kill this chicken?" Mujiexionka walked over with a knife in his hand and a murderous look.

The old medicine farmer waved his hand impatiently: "Go, go, go..."

"Eh..." Hong Gu was anxious and couldn't help but stand up to try to dissuade her.

Although she didn't understand what Ang Qing Chicken was about, she heard Partridge Whistle and Ding Xiu talk about it so brilliantly on the road, so naturally she couldn't bear to let that fool kill the chicken.

Ding Xiu tugged at the corner of her clothes and said with a smile: "Miss Hong, don't be anxious. Sit down and drink tea."

"But……"

Hong Gu wanted to say something else, but when she saw Ding Xiu's determined expression, she had no choice but to endure her doubts and sit down.

Sure enough, the chicken shed shook violently, and Mujiesongka ran out looking embarrassed and aggrieved: "Dad, the chicken was not finished."

"Okay, okay, if you don't kill me, you won't kill me. Put the knife down."

"Oh."

Partridge Whistle couldn't help but walk to the chicken shed and take a closer look, his eyes suddenly brightened.

What a big chicken!

The roosters in the chicken shed are at least twice as big as ordinary roosters. They are majestic, rebellious and proud.

The comb is big and red, as if it is holding a burning flame.

The feathers on the body are colorful and glow golden in the sun.

The chicken's beak is sharp and sharp, and its feet are thick and powerful.

Its eyes, in particular, are bright and lively. Normally the eyelids of birds are from bottom to top, but this chicken's eyelids are from top to bottom like humans.

This is clearly a spiritual bird, a phoenix species left behind in the world!
"Old sir, since you said this is a precious chicken, and you rely on it to collect medicines in the mountains, why do you want to kill it?"

The old medicine farmer sighed: "You young people don't know this. Dogs don't last eight years, chickens don't last six years, so they have to be killed!"

"Brother, what does he mean by this?" The old foreigner couldn't help but stepped forward and asked.

Partridge Whistle smiled: "What he said comes from Yi Yao, an ancient book. The book says that those who do not follow the common sense are all monsters.

Dogs don't last eight years, chickens don't last six years. It means that chickens, dogs, poultry, and livestock raised at home cannot be kept for too long.If they are allowed to live for too long, they will come into contact with people every day, and they will see everything they say and do.

As time goes by, you will gradually understand human nature, and sooner or later you will become a spirit and a monster..."

"Awesome! Very knowledgeable!" The old medicine farmer couldn't help but give a thumbs up.

"Old sir, if that's the case, why don't you give this chicken to us so that you don't have to worry about whether to kill it or not. In this case, I'll pay you a hundred yuan..."

One hundred oceans is not a small amount of money. It is enough to buy a few cows, let alone a chicken.

Unexpectedly, the old medicine farmer shook his head: "I am not bragging, I have raised this chicken since childhood, and the elixir it swallowed is probably worth more than a hundred oceans..."

How could the old foreigner believe it? He curled his lips and said, "You still say you're not bragging?"

At this time, Ding Xiu came over and said with a smile: "I believe what the old gentleman said, and I think there must be many exotic flowers, rare herbs, and rare elixirs growing in that Pingshan Mountain.

Therefore, the elixir swallowed by this chicken is of inestimable value.

To be honest, the old man said, this chicken of yours is indeed a precious chicken, worth a thousand dollars..."

Upon hearing this, Hong Gu could not help but widen her eyes and stamp her feet: "Hey, you..."

Who does this kind of business?He even praised the seller fiercely and said that money can't buy it. Isn't this causing trouble for himself?

Ding Xiu waved his hand with a smile, and then said to the old medicine farmer: "I'm afraid I don't know yet, but this chicken is an extraordinary bird, but a phoenix species. It can only be found in Nuqing County in the world, so it is called Nuqing Chicken.

Since it is a phoenix species, there is probably only one like this in the world, so let alone a thousand gold coins, it is hard to find even ten thousand gold coins..."

This time, not only Hong Gu and the others were speechless, but the old medicine farmer was also speechless. They had no idea what medicine Ding Xiu was selling in his gourd.

"In a word, this Angry Chicken is a spiritual creature of heaven and earth. It cannot be measured by money. Talking about money is a kind of humiliation to it. So..."

Sure enough, this guy had a premeditated plan.

The old medicine farmer couldn't help but change his face: "Hey, you don't want to rob me forcefully, do you? Let me tell you, don't think there are many of you. As long as I yell, you will never get out of this village."

Hearing this, Honggu couldn't help but snorted: "Looking at the old gentleman, he must have been in the world. Which mountain top are you from?"

The old medicine farmer cleared his throat, raised his hand to make a gesture, and said at the same time: "Bow down to the Arctic Mountain, which is full of purple energy. Among the 72 famous mountains in the world, this mountain is the only one to see the golden light."

He thought he was very powerful, but Honggu said disdainfully: "It turns out he is a member of the Taoist sect of Jinzhai Leitan..."

Before the old medicine farmer came to his senses, Honggu also recited a sentence: "When visiting mountains, you must visit Kunlun Mountain. There are many gods and immortals in Kunlun Mountain, Changsheng is even higher than Kunlun, and the mountain's loyalty soars into the sky."

Hong Gu's voice was not loud, but in the ears of the old medicine farmer, it was like a thunderbolt in the clear sky. She was so frightened that she broke into a cold sweat, her legs trembled, and she almost fell to the ground.
