I no longer pay attention to Huang Pizi.
Throw away the last handful of black charcoal, return to the mourning hall, close the coffin, and continue to kneel.
After a few minutes, I couldn't help but be curious, so I went to the door to take a look again.
Huangpizi is still there.
And there are a few more, some tall and some short!
Several yellow skins are like a family, cuddling together.
I scare them, but they are also afraid, but they refuse to go far, as if they are fighting guerrillas with me!
"Forget it, let him be!"
"I won't eat people anyway!"
A few more minutes passed like this.
Suddenly there was a "babble" sound from behind, as if someone was reading.
When I looked back, I was so scared that I almost fell to the ground!
Under the moonlight, a mouse was as big as a rabbit. It walked on two legs like a human. It was holding a book in its hand, which should be "The Analects of Confucius". It was shaking its head and thinking "Zhi Hu Zhe Ye"!
Before I could react, a group of snakes swam out of the water, a group of hedgehogs rolled out of the grass, and a few pheasants were squatting on the branches, with their tails so long they almost dragged to the ground.
"What...what's going on?"
I was completely confused.
But it's not over yet!
Groups of animals came from all directions and surrounded the mourning hall. It was more lively than the zoo during the Chinese New Year!
There are two great kings, one ghost and one demon, within a radius of hundreds of miles.
The ghost is Grandma Zheng.
The demon is a red chain snake.
Now that the Red Chain Snake has been killed by me, could it be that now its disciples are seeking revenge from me?
But it doesn’t look like it…
If they wanted revenge, they would have rushed in long ago. Why are they hesitant and timid outside?
Some of these animals are animals, and some can already be called monsters.
Even though he is a monster, he is still a little monster who has just gained some sway, but he still looks at me with a bit of fear.
They are afraid of people, but they are slowly approaching and testing.
According to this progress, sooner or later they will come in!
The wages of avarice is death!
Could there be something they covet in this mourning hall?
I feel like I'm getting closer to the right answer.
So continue to analyze calmly...
These animals all came after the death of the red chain snake.
What happened in the mourning hall before and after the Red Chain Snake was killed by me?
My heart moved and I put my hands in my trouser pockets.
Take out that strange bead!
"Did you come here for it?"
The moment I took out the beads!
All the animals outside the mourning hall stopped moving in tacit agreement, as if they were frozen!
All the animals’ eyes were looking straight at me!
Look at that bead in my hand!
"that's it!"
I finally found the reason!
These animals definitely came here for this bead!
By the way, what the hell is this?
At this time, some bold animals had already arrived at the entrance of the mourning hall.
What's even more dangerous is that some wild boars and wild dogs ran out of nowhere.
Once these large animals rush in, they will really kill people!
"or……"
"Throw the beads to them and let them fight for them?"
As soon as this idea came up, I rejected it immediately.
Obviously, this bead is unusual, although I don't know its purpose yet.
It's completely dark outside the mourning hall!
At this time, an old fox came out and said, "Everyone, be quiet and listen to what I have to say!"
All the animals stopped moving.
But there were also some who were unconvinced and choked out: "You cunning old fox, what kind words can you say!"
The old fox said: "Whether it's a good thing or not, it's not too late to make a decision after hearing it!"
Seeing that most people had no objection, the old fox continued: "There is only one golden elixir, and only one person can get it in the end! Doesn't everyone deny this?"
"That's right!"
"It makes sense!"
"Keep talking!"
Hearing this, many animals agreed.
Some of them couldn't speak human language, so they could only nod their heads and make some "babble" sounds from their mouths.
The old fox said: "There is no need to be disabled for a golden elixir! Why don't we be more civilized and have a competition, so that we can distinguish ourselves and not harm the harmony!"
"Great game!"
The water snake said: "Let's compete in swimming!"
The grasshopper said: "Let's compete in bouncing!"
The pheasant on the tree said: "It should be better than flying!"
The old fox smiled and shook his head: "You are talking about unpopular events. For the sake of fairness, we should compete with the most common event - racing!"
Racing, although some animals are not good at it, such as turtles, is indeed the most common event.
As a result, this proposal was quickly recognized by most animals.
The old fox said: "The rules are very simple. Everyone starts from here and ends at the City God's Temple! The first one to reach the City God's Temple will get the golden elixir. Do you agree?"
As soon as he finished speaking, some fast-reacting animals had already started running!
If someone starts, there will be a second, third...
Less than a minute!
Hundreds of animals, all of them ran away!
This scene left me stunned!
Be good!
Speaking of calculations, it has to be the old fox!
Now all the animals have run away and there is no one to compete with him!
really!
The old fox ran a few symbolic steps and quickly turned back.
I put away the so-called golden elixir and said, "It's amazing, I admire it!"
The old fox laughed and said: "They are a bunch of idiots who have no brains and are not worthy of taking the golden elixir!"
"eat……"
I wrote it down secretly.
Although the old fox is smart, he is an animal after all and cannot be compared with us humans.
I said, "It's just the two of us now, what do you want?"
The old fox said: "I am definitely no match for you humans to play with your brains! Let's make it simple and fair. Rock, scissors, paper, we will win or lose in one go!"
"Can!"
I agreed wholeheartedly.
If I win, the golden elixir is still mine.
If you lose...it's never too late to cheat!
I'm getting ready to take action.
"etc!"
The old fox interrupted me.
I said, "What other rules are there?"
The old fox said: "To prevent someone from cheating when they lose, let's put the golden elixir on the ground first!"
I glanced down.
If it is really placed on the ground, I'm afraid the old fox will try to rob it!
First it's faster than me.
Secondly, it is relatively short.
It's more cost-effective to grab things from the ground!
I was about to refuse when I suddenly saw a lot of stones and bricks scattered on the ground.
In rural areas, the roads are like this, with bricks and tiles and bottles and cans very common.
I had an idea and said, "Then it's settled! Look at it, I'll put down the golden elixir!"
As I said that, I bent down and placed the golden elixir on the ground.
But at the same time, I secretly grabbed a stone in my hand.
"Okay, let's get started!"
The old fox glanced at the golden elixir greedily, but did not immediately start grabbing it.
I guess it’s similar to what I just thought!
I have at least half a chance of winning!
If you lose, it’s not too late to grab it again!
"one!"
"two!"
"three!"
We both counted at the same time.
When counting to "three", take action at the same time.
The old fox produces stones.
What I produce is also stone.
It's just that its stone is female and mine is male!
boom!
A stone fell and hit the old fox hard on the head!
The old fox chirped, rolled his eyes, and passed out.
