Chapter 378: Feast?
"Immortal Phoenix Gallbladder."
Under the old locust tree, everyone sat in a circle and listened to the old Taoist priest telling stories from the past.
It seemed like a serious discussion was going on.
"According to legend, one day tens of thousands of years ago, the sky was shattered and a corner of the sky cracked. A golden light fell in the endless thunder and was picked up by a woman. At that time, the Fairy Phoenix Gallbladder was wrapped in a layer of silk. On the silk was recorded an unknown technique, which was the powerful Huaxu Sutra. With the level of the Huaxu Sutra, it was only used to wrap the treasure. You can imagine how valuable the treasure must be."
"So, although Huaxu State was founded on the basis of the Huaxu Sutra, it still regarded the Immortal Phoenix Gallbladder as its most precious treasure. Unfortunately, it is a treasure from heaven after all, and not many people know about it. For many years, people only knew that this item could help with cultivation and achieve twice the result with half the effort. But this is definitely not the true magical effect of the Immortal Phoenix Gallbladder. According to legend, if the true secret of the Immortal Phoenix Gallbladder is discovered, one will have the opportunity to become an immortal."
Yu Qian'an told the story slowly and leisurely.
He had not explained it in such detail before because he was worried that someone in the temple might be simple-minded and accidentally leak the information, causing trouble for the little koi.
But now that someone has come to his door, he no longer hides it.
After telling the story of the Immortal Phoenix Gallbladder, he continued:
"Wang Longqi."
"Logically speaking, if nothing unexpected happens, he should be the biological son of the wealthy Wang family in Yuhang Town..."
"I don't like eating, drinking, or gambling..."
“Hobbies are simple and pure.”
"In general, he is a dandy boy who has given nothing back to his family, made no contribution to Heluo, and brought no benefit to the world."
"Now the Wooden King of the Yanyue Cult has captured Wang Longqi and threatened us to exchange him for the Immortal Phoenix Gallbladder. On one hand, there is a rare treasure that may contain an opportunity to become an immortal, and on the other hand, there is a piece of waste." Yu Qian'an said, frowning and spreading his hands, "It's really hard to choose."
After listening to him, Qin Zhenghu also frowned, "Put these two things together, how should I choose? Isn't it obvious at a glance?"
"You can't say that..." Li Chu seemed to want to fight for Wang Longqi. After thinking for a while, he said, "The yard under our feet was paved with his money."
"It's one of the few human affairs that the Seventh Young Master has done." Du Lanke nodded.
“Actually, he’s not that bad, and he’s helped our Taoist temple a lot in the past… Although he’s caused us more trouble than usual, he can’t be considered a bad person… He’s just extremely lustful and has no conscience, but he does have some love in him… Even though he often teaches children bad things and always tries to take the baby Thunder Dragon to brothels…” The fox girl counted on her fingers, listing off Wang Longqi’s “merits”.
As she listened, Lao Du stopped her and said, "Miss Xiaobai, stop talking. If you keep talking like this, the Seventh Young Master will deserve to die."
"I also think he's a nice guy, and he often brings me delicious food. But he's a little weird. He always says he wants to be the Moon Worshiper, and he makes some wishes that I can't understand, like seven times a night, an eternal penis, etc..." the little koi also said.
"Those are not important, just forget about them." Yu Qian'an waved his sleeves and said angrily, "This kid should be killed with a knife."
"Hey, hey, hey!"
Hearing what he said, a fat little paw was raised nearby.
Little Fatty Dragon frowned in protest.
It seems that in the entire Deyun Temple, it is the one that has the best relationship with Wang Longqi and is most worried about the safety of the Seventh Young Master.
After all, in its mind, Wang Longqi is the royal translator and chicken leg supplier, which is extremely important.
After a while of arguing, Li Chu said, "We must save people, but...how do we save them?"
"Shouldn't I use my Immortal Phoenix Gallbladder to exchange him back?" the little koi asked puzzledly.
"Well... that's all I can do."
Li Chu pondered for a moment, his eyes looking into the distance.
…
late at night.
There is lush vegetation on Miaofeng Mountain.
Li Chu's eyes opened, and he quickly caught two auras at the top of the mountain and walked over.
Sure enough, when I got there, I saw a tall and strong young man and the tied up Wang Longqi.
The young man had a livid face and dead eyes, and was most likely a puppet of the Wooden King.
Now Li Chu is more certain that the real body of the Wooden King should be the old blind man he saw in southern Xinjiang that day. Because only in this way can he know the close relationship between Wang Longqi and Deyun Temple.
Otherwise, I wouldn't have thought of using this person to threaten me.
I heard that Wang Longqi was tied there, but he was not behaving himself. He was vaguely asking the young man questions like "What's your mother's surname?"
The young man had no expression on his face and ignored him.
Only when Li Chu approached did a gleam of brilliance appear in his eyes and he stood up.
"I'm here." Li Chu appeared, raised the brocade bag in his hand to the young man, and said: "The Immortal Phoenix Gallbladder is here, let my friend go."
There were two goldfish embroidered on the pink brocade bag, and it also had a small bell. It was obviously a girl's thing.
The young man looked at him and said, "Little Taoist, I know you are powerful and can kill me in an instant. But don't try to play tricks. I have planted 32 kinds of strange poisons in your friend's body. Without the antidote, he will not survive until tomorrow morning. Give me the Immortal Phoenix Gallbladder, and someone will send the antidote to you later. Otherwise..."
He paused here.
Li Chu looked at Wang Longqi with a questioning look.
Wang Longqi immediately cried out, "It's true! I was eating hot pot, singing songs, and happily visiting a brothel that day, when suddenly someone came and robbed me!"
"After kidnapping me, they fed me a lot of weird things. I said I didn't want to eat them, and they wanted to beat me. So I had no choice but to eat them all. You know what, they tasted really good..."
Li Chu was too lazy to continue listening to his nonsense and directly threw the Immortal Phoenix Gallbladder over.
The young man took the Immortal Phoenix Gallbladder, opened the brocade bag, checked it, and smiled with satisfaction.
"good."
After saying that, he released the ropes on Wang Longqi.
"As long as I go back, the antidote will be delivered to you." After saying that, the young man stood up and flew away.
In fact, Li Chu didn't want to let him go like this, but Wang Longqi's life was in someone else's hands, and the other party was cautious, so there was no good way.
He had no choice but to take Wang Longqi back to Deyun Temple first.
At this time, everyone was awake, all waiting for news. It happened that the little doctor had not left after seeing Qin Zhenghu last time, and stayed here for a few more days, so he was asked to come and see Wang Longqi.
The young doctor came forward, and with just a glance, his expression became a little solemn. Then he touched Wang Longqi's wrist, and his eyes became a little unfriendly. Finally, he let Wang Longqi stick out his tongue, and suddenly smiled again.
"It's okay." The little doctor smiled, "You don't have to worry about whether they will send the antidote."
"Can you cure this poison?" Wang Longqi said happily.
What he is most worried about now is that the Wooden King will stand him up. If the little miracle doctor can cure the poison, it would be great.
"Of course not." The little doctor quickly shook his head and denied it. "He didn't lie. He really gave you thirty-two kinds of strange poisons. Now the properties of the drugs are mixed together and haven't erupted yet. Just wait until dawn. If any one of the drugs becomes agitated, the toxicity will be like a mountain torrent, and you will definitely die on the spot."
"Ah?" Wang Longqi was shocked. "What do you mean by not worrying about whether they will send the antidote?"
"It means that there is no antidote for so many poisons mixed together." The little doctor shrugged and said, "The complexity of this mixture of poisons is beyond the limit of human ability to deduce. He didn't want to save your life at all."
"ah?"
Upon hearing this, everyone was a little surprised.
"This old bastard actually picked on innocent mortals. He deserves to die." Qin Zhenghu said indignantly.
"Maybe it's because Taoist Xiao Li has ruined his plans many times, but he can't do anything about Taoist Xiao Li himself, so he takes this opportunity to take revenge." Li Maoqing said.
"What a pity for the Immortal Phoenix Gallbladder. He took it away for nothing." Yu Qian'an also shook his head and sighed.
"Yes..." Lao Du also felt a little regretful, "That can make Miss Yue'er on par with the gods on earth... Then how much gift money should we give to the Wang family for the funeral?"
Yu Qian'an thought for a moment and said, "Let's go and take a look at the banquet dishes. If there are a lot of dishes, just order whatever you want. If the dishes are not good, just order less."
"Okay." Old Du nodded in agreement.
Yu Qian'an smacked his lips and said, "Come to think of it, it's been a long time since I had a banquet."
Lao Du said, "After all, the Wang family is a wealthy family in town, so it won't be bad to go to their house for a feast."
"No, no..." Wang Longqi was about to cry, "Are we almost at the banquet? I'm still here, and you don't even want to consider rescuing me?"
Bang! As he was talking, he heard a bang over there. He looked over and saw that it was Li Chu who slammed the table with a frown.
He actually showed a rare expression of anger.
"That Woodman King has really gone too far. He has already taken away the Fairy Phoenix Gallbladder and even intended to kill you."
"You are still my good brother after all." Wang Longqi looked at Li Chu with emotion, "You are the only one who is heartbroken for me."
At this time, Lao Du next to him said, "Master, don't be too angry. At worst, we won't go to the banquet, and we won't have to give any gift money."
Hearing this, the depression in Li Chu's eyes slowly dissipated.
But the tears in Wang Longqi's eyes could not stop flowing.
Like a spring.
