I responded to my second uncle and started cooking.
I have to say that I am amazed by the willpower of young people.
In the evening, the lamb had licked enough salt, and he almost died of laughter.
But still didn't let go.
Huang Jiu lost interest and planned to let him take a break.
After all, if you don’t know the sweetness of sugar, how can you know the bitterness of medicine.
I tied the sheep Mieme outside the shed and cut some leaves for it.
After dinner, it was getting dark.
Huang Jiu and I took turns keeping vigil to give my second uncle a good rest.
Fortunately, the night was uneventful.
Early the next morning, Huang Jiu took the sheep over.
As the saying goes, one is born in sorrow and dies in happiness.
Before Huang Jiudu was executed, the young man's will collapsed.
He cried bitterly and said: "I said, I said, please lead the sheep away, lead away..."
The harmless little lamb seemed to be more terrifying than the devil in his eyes at this moment.
Huang Jiu held the sheep with one hand and put his other hand on his waist. "If I had said no earlier, we would have stopped doing this."
As soon as I heard him relent, I also walked over.
The young man took a few breaths and said with tears of dissatisfaction: "Back then, my ancestors brought back the dragon coffin from overseas. In order to prevent the dragon coffin from falling into the hands of others, they took away an important thing in the coffin, which we call the spirit bead. The things were taken down and have been kept in the family’s treasury.”
"Four years ago, Xu Wanrong stole the spirit bead, and its whereabouts are still unknown."
Being able to enter the treasure house, it seems that Xu Wanrong's status in the Xu family is not low.
I asked: "Where is the dragon coffin now?"
"have no idea!"
Huang Jiu held the salt water bowl and led the sheep to go over again. The young man was so frightened that he shouted repeatedly: "I really don't know. The dragon coffin has been in the temple. We don't know when it was thrown away."
Huang Jiu shook the salt water bowl and asked, "When the dragon coffin emerged from the Yellow River Temple, didn't you go there?"
The young man hurriedly said: "I heard that someone went there, but met a group of mysterious people, and hundreds of people died in the clan!"
It can be seen that back then, a secret war broke out for the dragon coffin, but no one knew about it.
The world only knows that the dragon coffin was carried back to the temple by the headless corpse.
It's just a mysterious person. Could it be Xiaocui's person?
You know, the only one who can fight against the ancient tribe is Shiwandashan.
I paused and asked, "What is the use of the spirit beads on the dragon coffin?"
The young man said: "I heard that the Lingzhu has a spirit and is an eternal life."
"After the undead were created by my ancestors, they sacrificed the complete dragon coffin. After the sacrifice, they can obtain the power of immortality from the spirit beads."
I touched my chin. If what he said was true, it meant that when Xu Fu came back for the third time, he had actually found the way to live forever.
However, he hid it himself and did not give it to the First Emperor.
I looked up at the sky and couldn't help but ask myself: Does eternal life really exist?
If it exists, and Xiaocui gains eternal life in the future, will she and I be separated forever?
After all, a monk's lifespan also has an end.
After a long time, I came back to my senses and asked the young man: "Can I live forever if I get a complete dragon coffin?"
After betraying his family, the young man's emotions became more and more broken, and he yelled at me: "I have told you everything I know, what else do you want? Trash, trash, native, if you can, kill me!"
Seeing that he had collapsed, I didn't ask any more questions.
After all, things involving that level are probably out of his reach based on his status.
Huang Jiu looked at the old man, I shook my head and said, "Forget it."
Being able to cultivate to the supreme state, his life experience, and the hardships he has endured are beyond comparison with ordinary people. It is basically impossible to get him to speak.
It's enough to know this.
Huang Jiu tied up the sheep, jumped on my shoulders and said, "When we go back this time, we will set a trap to catch Xu Wanrong. As long as we get the spirit beads, we will know half of the secret of immortality."
I nodded, but I was still skeptical about immortality.
Xu Fu himself was also keen on immortality.
If the dragon coffin could really lead to immortality, why wouldn't he use it?
And based on what the young man said, Mo Yinzi's words were correct.
The undead are one of Xu Fu's experiments.
The target of the experiment is the dragon coffin.
Things that people like Xu Fu would not dare to use may still have huge drawbacks.
But there is nothing wrong with grabbing something that everyone in the world wants.
If I don’t need it, I can give it to Xiaocui.
Thinking of Xiaocui, I miss her a little.
The day was quiet and boring. Huang Jiu rode on the back of the sheep and acted as the shepherd.
In the evening, Huang Jiu was a little restless and came to me and told me that everything seemed fine here and he wanted to go back.
After being away from home for so long, he also missed his children.
It's just that once he left, my second uncle slept all day, and I kept vigil all night alone, which I couldn't bear at all.
He could only say shamelessly: "Brother Huang, hold on for a few more days. Then we will go back together and stay in the mountains for ten days and a half!"
Hearing that he would have to stay in the mountains for ten days and a half, Huang Jiu shuddered and said, "That's not possible."
"Young man, you don't know the embarrassment of middle-aged men!"
He was quite helpless and troubled.
The legs are also a little shaky.
But he continued: "Then we will go back together in a few days."
I breathed a sigh of relief and offered to stay the night.
After nightfall, the wind was a bit cool.
I sat next to the campfire, using a stick to pull the potatoes burning in the fire out of boredom.
Near midnight, the old man from the ancient tribe suddenly said vaguely: "Little one, someone is coming!"
The Earth Dog Star was always around, and there was nothing abnormal in the vision. I replied: "Old Zamao, with a sick cat like you here, even the mice will not dare to come to the door."
I said as I stood up, walked up to him, and checked the dragon lock.
I'm more worried about him breaking free than the people outside trying to come over.
After all, he is at the Supreme level and is also proficient in the Dragon Cutting Technique.
After checking, I breathed a sigh of relief when I saw that there was no sign of the dragon lock being loose.
The old man was a little anxious, "Little bastard, wake up your second uncle quickly, otherwise we will all die here."
"Tch!" I snorted disdainfully.
His Dantian was locked, his nose was swollen like a head of garlic, his eyes were still squinted, and he had the perception of a hammer.
I sat back by the fire pit and continued to grill the potatoes.
When the old man saw that I didn't listen, he snorted angrily and stopped talking.
But just as I was picking out a potato, the sleeping sheep in front of the shed suddenly started to bleat and moved back and forth uneasily.
I immediately became vigilant and let the Earth Dog Star circle around quickly.
Still no abnormalities found.
But Yang Meie became more and more uneasy.
Thinking that Earth Dog Star could not sense everything, I opened my mouth to call my second uncle and Huang Jiu.
But as soon as I opened my mouth, I felt a cold sensation on my neck. I could feel that it was the edge of a knife, and I swallowed the words that came to my mouth immediately.
The sheep on the side didn't know whether it was slaughtered or not, and there was no movement in an instant.
I rolled my eyes and found that behind the two pillars, there were two men in black who were also holding knives on the necks of the old man and the young man.
In this situation, there is still a way to survive if you don't make a sound, but if you make a sound, your neck will be broken.
