Li Qinglin finally returned to the yard.

He sat at a table by the window in the room with a calm expression, without a trace of a smile or humility on his face.

There is only a silence and calmness like a spring breeze, just like a slowly burning lamp.

I opened the thin book and saw five words:

Records of Talking about Strange Things

Picking lice?

Seeing these two words, Li Qinglin's heart moved.

I automatically imagined the person who wrote the book, pressing his lice with his hands, oblivious to the people around him, while talking attentively about all kinds of strange stories.

Li Qinglin was like a lustful ghost and immediately dove into the book.

After three consecutive times, Li Qinglin finally slowly withdrew his gaze, took a long breath, and vaguely felt a throbbing pain in his head.

He took out the rosewood, sniffed it to wake himself up, and pondered.

These two taels of silver were well spent.

This book introduces many local customs and discusses various strange stories from a Chinese studio and stories about gods and ghosts.

Including methods such as sealing zombies, avoiding evil spirits, witchcraft chieftains, monsters and strange objects...

This includes the description of the false dragon fish and the pale yellow light in the fish's belly.

The statement about false dragon fish is not wrong.

The three almost roasted fish in the water palace are actually called cage fish. They are the degeneration of dragon fish bloodline. They were originally tamed by a group of immortal cultivators who raised animals and locked in bamboo cages, hence the name.

The most important thing is, it cannot be eaten directly!

The meat of caged fish contains the shallow meaning of Geng metal. Once it gets wet with water, falls into the mouth and into the intestines, it is enough to cut a mortal to death!

Even martial artists who cultivate their spirits do not dare to try it lightly.

It is necessary to use the principle of the five elements and bury a piece of exotic wood or a hundred-year-old ancient tree underground. Turn it over every three days, and only every seven days can you cut off a finger-sized piece of meat to eat.

Of course, the magical uses of caged fish meat are equally huge. It can restore the foundation, nourish yin and replenish yang, reshape potential and even break through the realm. It can be said that it has a wide range of uses.

Its scales are extremely hard. If you gather dozens of caged fish and peel off their scales, you can make an "Autumn Fish Knife" that can cut bones without leaving any marks. It can look down on gods and ghosts and is as good as a hundred-forged weapon.

And that pair of fish eyes can emit a faint warmth without any light. When worn on the body, it can easily ward off cold and evil spirits.

Fish maw can be made into soft armor, and the heart, liver, spleen and lungs can be used as medicine. It can be said that every piece is a treasure.

"Fortunately, I didn't eat the caged fish rashly. Although the Jade Yuanchan almost became a demon after its transformation and its digestive ability has greatly increased, there is no need to take such a huge risk."

Li Qinglin was secretly glad.

But, it's okay to just trap fish, the key point is...

"A cultivator should gather all the energy in his chest and form three flowers on the top of his head. When the cultivator dies, the three flowers will also hide in his chest, the scarlet essence, the pale yellow spirit, and the burning white qi!"

"These three flowers will fall when they encounter gold, wither when they encounter wood, melt when they encounter water, burn when they encounter fire, and rot when they encounter soil. They need to be 'taken care of' by the body, integrated into the body of the strange beast, and then used as food."

Therefore, the three flowers of essence, energy and spirit of the immortal cultivator cannot be eaten directly.

Do I have to eat sashimi?

Li Qinglin thought of the half-dead caged fish.

"All the fates are in the books. I, Li, will be a respectable person who likes reading and eating fish in the future."

Whoosh! The oil lamp went out, and the room suddenly fell into darkness.

Only a wisp of blue smoke rose up and returned to the outside of the window.

…

Da da da…

The horse's hooves stepped on the crisp stone steps.

A team of dozens of people meandered along the street, leaving the Wang residence, and other teams joined them from time to time on the road.

Then it gradually grew larger and larger, like a marching army, heading towards the city gate.

Donkey Face sat upside down in the carriage, looking at the Wang residence which was getting farther and farther away. Outside the door of the Wang residence, the figures of Hong Cuicui, Xiao Liu and Li Qinglin became smaller and smaller until they could no longer be seen.

Today is the day when Donkey Face becomes an adult and performs pioneering service.

But now, Donkey Face has found the feeling of tranquility through standing meditation in two months. His whole body has much more strength than that of ordinary people. If he holds a sharp weapon, he will also have some more self-defense skills. He is much better than Ruan Qi.

But the road ahead is still uncertain, and life and death are uncertain.

Donkey Face was a little dazed, then he reacted immediately.

He shook the empty water bag and called to the old man holding the horse: "Master, I'm going to the sweet water well to fill some water for good luck."

The old man didn't even respond. He just took the pipe out of his mouth and tapped the pipe end against the carriage as a sign of agreement.

Not far from the palace there is a street called Gongchen Street, and in the corner of the street there is a sweet water well.

The residents of Gongchen Street have relied on the water from this well for generations and believe that it is spiritual. Those who drink the sweet water from the well will be blessed by some mysterious force.

Therefore, many people who served as pioneers would fill a pot of water before leaving to bring good luck.

In the eyes of the old man who rides horses, the same is true for donkey faces.

He got off the car and walked away quickly.

After a while, he caught up with the carriage, breathing heavily and with a hint of fear on his face.

In his mind, he could still see the image of the fat toad that he had just fished out and put into his bag while fetching water! It was so big! Donkey Face had never seen such a fat and strong toad in his life!

The skin on his body is hard and rough, like armor, full of a rough and ferocious aura.

It is almost the size of a washbasin and weighs thirty or forty kilograms!

If Lin'er hadn't secretly told me to bring it with me, I would never have dared to get close to the fat toad, let alone carry it on my back!

"Is this toad raised by Brother Lin?"

"It's not enough to raise insects, but you also raise this giant creature?!"

"But how come this toad is so sensible? It took the initiative to crawl into my arms and didn't make a sound from beginning to end. It was very obedient, as if it knew that I was going to leave the city?"

Doubts were surging in his heart, but out of absolute trust in Li Qinglin, Donkey Face did not say much and immediately suppressed the fear on his face.

"Eh? Donkey Face, what are you carrying? It's so heavy?"

Someone asked curiously.

Donkey Face remained expressionless and laughed, "I was afraid I would never be able to drink water from the Sweet Water Well again, so I drew more."

The man wrapped the donkey's face and patted its back. It felt shaky and soft, and there was a sound of liquid splashing.

He couldn't help but laugh: "You kid, you really have no place to use your strength, sit still and don't get thrown out."

"Okay!"

Donkey Face sat obediently in the carriage.

In the black gauze bag, the Jade Yuan Chan silently dispersed the water gathered under its belly, listening to the sound of wind, footsteps and wheels outside.

His eyelids blinked, his pupils dilated, and he looked at things on both sides of the street through the gaps in the gauze.

The team drove towards the distance, out of the inner city, crossed the stone arch bridge of the outer city, but turned at the intersection and drove towards...Ximen.

The overall shape of Feng County is a Chinese character “回”, with four gates leading out of the city, namely the east, south, west and north. The west gate is for good luck and is generally called the Happy Gate.

In the distance, the towering city gate is visible.

Jade Yuanchan was surprised to see the several city gates and corridors for people to enter and exit.

They were docked silently, like huge steel dragons. The unique metallic light reflected in the sun, forming colorful rays of light, which was incomparably majestic and spectacular.

At this moment, many people were going up and down, being 'swallowed' by the giant iron dragon.

There were also many people with sad faces as they took cold corpses from the mouth of the steel dragon.

Armored Car Mud Dragon Jade Yuanchan silently recited the names of these steel dragons in his heart.

Even though he had already gained a general understanding of the armored mud dragon from books, seeing its true appearance at this moment still made Jade Yuanchan feel a little dazed, as if his past and present lives were confused.

"…When the Great Jie arrived, the government roads were extensively repaired, the territories were connected, and the country was recuperated. After two years, the country was reclaimed and the power was transferred to the people. The country was ruled by the middle way. The country's prosperity lasted for 5,000 years."

"During the reign of Da Jiang, a clay dragon with armored chariots was built on the official roads. It could carry all things and travel a thousand miles a day. Every month, it could be used to open up wasteland.

The Great Jiang monarch praised it as the secret to seize the heaven and earth, which could enable the Great Jiang to control thousands of dragons and ascend to the heavens! It would establish a foundation for eternity! "
