After taking a bite of the fruit, Ying Zheng felt as if the long-dry fields encountered nectar, and he began to eat voraciously.
In a moment, the red Wu Guo in front of him was eaten until only one core remained.
Ying Zheng took a long breath, as if he was using all his strength to digest the delicious food that had just been eaten.
Just as fast as Ying Zheng's attack was, the recovery brought about by this Wu Guo will be fast.
Ying Zheng's energy and spirit are recovering at an incredible speed. Power is continuously flowing from the body, filling all the organs of the body, and seems to be reactivating every vein and even every piece of bone marrow through each acupuncture point. .
"Don't move, adjust your breathing, control your heartbeat, and then sit quietly for a quarter of an hour." Ji Fa warned Ying Zheng quickly, fearing that he would have the strength to move.
Ying Zheng nodded slightly, then sat cross-legged and closed his eyes.
At this time, in the direction from which the three people came, the sea surface surged again, and then, a giant blue-black snake emerged from the water.
Twenty-seven is back.
I saw it climbing up the beach and meandering this way. The speed was not fast, and the movements were a bit lazy, as if it had just eaten a big meal.
"You're back." Ji Fa took the lead in greeting Nian Qi.
"Hiss..." Twenty-seven spit out the snake letter and said, "The fish in this sea area are still so delicious. If I weren't a little sleepy, I wouldn't be willing to come back this year."
"Then go and rest. If you don't recover your strength, we won't be able to go on the road." Ji Fa said.
"This kid, hiss..." Twenty-seven didn't leave in a hurry. He looked at Ying Zheng and asked, "Have you eaten the fruit yet?"
Li Si replied from the side: "I have eaten both of them and are recovering now."
"Looks like you have good physical strength." Twenty-seven said something, turned around and walked towards the basalt tree.
Ying Zheng, who had his eyes closed, almost spat out a mouthful of blood.
It wasn't because of Twenty-Seven's words, but because he heard that it seemed that Ji Fa, Li Si and Twenty-Seven had already known the consequences of eating the fruit, but no one told him.
Moreover, it seemed that the purpose of coming to Jiuyou this time was to bring him here to eat fruit.
Ji Fa seemed to have read Ying Zheng's thoughts and comforted him: "Don't think so wildly, relax, take a good rest, and let your energy and blood flow smoothly."
Ying Zheng did not open his eyes, calmed his mind, and continued to regain his strength.
Unknowingly, Ying Zheng seemed to have entered a dream, dreaming that he had turned into a big fish and plunged into the sea, chasing the group of squid that had just arrived and swimming in the vast sea.
Suddenly it turned into a big bird, following the luan bird, flying higher and higher, soaring in the vast sky.
I don't know how long it took, but Ying Zheng slowly opened his eyes and saw Ji Fa and Li Si sitting on the side, closing their eyes to relax.
Ying Zheng stretched and felt that all the fatigue had disappeared, the blood flowing in his body was a little hot, his eyes were very clear, and his mind was also clear.
At this time, Ji Fa also slowly opened his eyes and said leisurely: "Are you awake?"
"Well, senior, are you asleep?" Ying Zheng said apologetically.
"Haha, you should get more rest." Ji Fa smiled, "If you hadn't been taking Linggu Pill before, this level would have been even more difficult."
"Senior, this is what the book says, cleanse the meridians and cut the marrow, and be reborn, right?" Ying Zheng asked.
"Even so." Ji Fa said, "How do you feel now?"
Ying Zheng stood up, moved a bit, and jumped on the spot. He felt that his body was much lighter, and his muscles and bones seemed to be stronger than before.
Li Si also opened his eyes and asked, "The king must be hungry."
It's okay not to say it, but when he said it, Ying Zheng's stomach growled.
Everything that should be done was cleared, and now his stomach was empty, and his chest had already reached his back.
Just as Ying Zheng was about to turn around and get some dry food to satisfy his hunger, he heard Li Si say: "Your Majesty, please wait a moment. There is someone over there."
Weichen will get the grilled fish for you. "
One listen
There was grilled fish to eat, and Ying Zheng's saliva almost flowed to his shoes.
"I'll go with you." Ying Zheng followed quickly.
I don't know whether it was because he was afraid that the smell of grilled fish would affect Ying Zheng, or for other reasons. The place where Li Si grilled fish was at the other end of the island, but at the speed of two people, it could only happen in a matter of seconds.
The flames of the bonfire were no longer visible, but there was still warmth, and there were several grilled fish on it.
Without saying a word, Ying Zheng strode forward, picked up one and started eating like crazy.
If this scene were seen by everyone in Jiuxiao, no one would think that this was King Qin eating.
After finishing one fish quickly, Ying Zheng picked up the second one, then remembered and asked, "Sir, have you and senior eaten?"
"After eating, please use it, Your Majesty." Li Si said.
Perhaps because his stomach was fuller, Ying Zheng was no longer so impatient and began to savor the delicious flavor of the grilled fish.
When the second fish was almost gone, Ying Zheng suddenly felt that something was wrong, so he looked at the soles of Li Si's shoes and clothes, then looked around, and asked: "Sir, there are no fishing guys on this isolated island. , how did you get so many fish."
Yes, there is not even a fishing boat on this small desert island, let alone fishing nets or fishing rods. Your clothes are not wet. How did you catch it?
Li Si smiled and said, "We don't need Wei Chen to do this fishing. We have a good helper like Nian Qi, who can take care of as many fish as we need."
Ying Zheng's mouth stopped moving just as he was about to bite it.
"Don't say it was spit out from the stomach." Ying Zheng looked at Li Si longingly.
"It hasn't reached the stomach yet. These are just brought up in the mouth. Wei Chen has washed them twice. Your Majesty, feel free to enjoy them." Li Si said.
This is still better. After all, I've even gotten into someone's belly bag, so do I still care about this?
Thinking of this, Ying Zheng started eating again, but he no longer savored the taste.
Ying Zheng had never seen the sea before, and naturally he had never seen sea fish, let alone the sea fish of Jiuyou.
Although the fish meat is fragrant and tender, the appearance of these fish is quite ferocious. The two rows of fine tines are very sharp. The dorsal fin is like a steel needle. Although the fish scales have been roasted and fallen off, some fine and tight ones can still be seen. Remains.
But fortunately, these fish are quite regular in appearance, and they don't have the dog-like head like the squid. If the fish in front of him is that weird-shaped thing, Ying Zheng may not be able to eat it.
Finally full, Ying Zheng took another swig of water and regained his energy.
Li Si finished handling the bonfire, buried the fish bones, and then accompanied Ying Zheng back to where he was just now.
Twenty-seven also came back and seemed to be discussing something with Ji Fa.
Seeing that Ying Zheng was back, Twenty-seven seemed to have raised his voice intentionally and said, "Anyway, I've suffered a lot of losses this year when I come back this time. It's okay if you don't compensate me accordingly."
"I seem to have discussed the matter of compensation with the guardians before giving it to them directly," Ji Fa said.
Guardians naturally refer to the nine divine beasts that guard the Third Eye, including Yazui.
"I don't care about the previous rules." Twenty-seven's voice was a little louder again, "Now that I have taken over this place, I'm afraid the rules will have to be changed in the future."
Ying Zheng stepped forward quickly and asked urgently: "I don't know what Senior Twenty-seven wants, but Da Qin will give it with all his strength."
Ji Fa sighed softly and said, "It's easy to say what kind of object it is."
"Hiss..." Twenty-seven confided Snake Xinxin, "After I came to Lishan this year, I saw the "my vessel" given to Xi by King Qin. I saw that Xi's totem was engraved on it, so I felt envious, so I Ask about its origin. "
"Na Xi said that this was engraved by the King of Qin in order to leave Xi's name in history and be remembered by the world forever. Moreover, all the weapons of the Qin army were engraved with its totem."
"Later, I saw the Xuanyuan Sword in the cave. It turns out that the token of your Tiancheng lineage is also engraved with the image of Yaizhen.
Teng, so Ben Sui became even more envious, so Ben Sui thought, is there any way you can do to make Ben Sui famous in history and be remembered by the world forever? "
Jealousy is jealousy, and envy! ?
Ying Zheng's face showed a slight embarrassment. He didn't expect that what he casually agreed to at that time would cause trouble today.
But he didn't know that the trouble would not end there in the future.
"Senior Twenty-Seven, do you really don't want cattle or sheep?" Detective Ying Zheng asked.
Since this big snake is so greedy for delicious food, it would save a lot of trouble if he could contribute some cattle and sheep.
Twenty-seven shook the snake letter around, as if instead of shaking his head: "If we talk about delicious food, there are a lot of them in the sea."
Ying Zheng looked slightly sad, and said in a deep voice: "I understand the thoughts of Senior Twenty-Seven, but it would be too cumbersome to re-forge 'my weapon' into a totem. "
"I don't want to imitate them." Twenty-seven said, "Those knives and swords are not rare to me."
"What about carving the totems of the seniors on the roof or the bed?" Ying Zheng remembered the treaty he had made with Jizhen, one of which was to carve the totems of the other eight guardians on different objects.
Twenty-seven shook his head.
"What about musical instruments, war drums, etc.?" Ying Zheng asked next.
Twenty-seven still shook his head.
Now Ying Zheng had no idea, and frowned as he thought about how to deal with it.
Twenty-seven circled in a circle and said: "My requirements are not high, as long as I can highlight the status of the Snake Clan, so that everyone in the Snake Clan in Jiuxiao will not shout and beat me. If you can't think of a way, then I will But I won’t leave.”
Is this to let it go?
When he came, Ji Fa reminded Ying Zheng that Zhu Jiuyou had just taken over the operation of Lishan Fire Eye and would definitely get some benefits, but he didn't expect it to come so quickly.
At this time, Ji Fa smiled and said, "This matter is actually not difficult."
All eyes were focused on Ji Fa.
"Senior, do you have any idea?" Ying Zheng asked.
Ji Fa said with a smile: "There are all living beings above Jiuxiao, but there has never been a corresponding zodiac sign that matches the age of the world. The reason why Jiuxiao is called Jiuxiao is that there are nine different levels distributed in it, and in the sky In the same lineage, the nine levels are often referred to as the height of the eyes of nine kinds of animals."
"From bottom to top, there are nine kinds of animals: rat, rabbit, pig, sheep, dog, tiger, ox, horse, monkey."
"If snakes are also added, there will be exactly ten types, which are consistent with the number of earthly branches. They can be used to determine the age and zodiac signs of the people, thus creating awe for the snake clan."
"Is this method feasible?"
Twenty-seven was silent for a moment, and said with a snake letter: "This method is indeed good, but my snake clan is the remnant of the dragon clan, how can I participate in it alone."
"Then add the dragon clan to it." Ying Zheng saw that Twenty-seven seemed to be tempted, so he quickly added.
Ji Fa shook his head and said, "If we add one more, the number will become eleven, and the harmony of the heavenly stems and earthly branches will be very different."
"How many Heavenly Stems are there?" asked Twenty-Seven.
"Twelve." Ji Fa replied.
After thinking for a while, Zhu Jiuyou Twenty-seven said: "Well, let's do this. Your Jiuxiao is represented by nine animals. My Jiuyou is also divided into three realms: beast, bird and fish. The dragon clan is the master of Jiuyou, and often Those who live in water can naturally represent the fish tribe, while the snake tribe can represent the beast tribe, and the remaining bird tribe can be represented by pheasants."
"In this case, nine plus three would make twelve."
"And this year's request is to place the snakes immediately after the dragons. You can decide the other order as you wish."
Ying Zheng naturally lost nothing by this approach, but it was not easy to decide privately, so he looked at Ji Fa.
Ji Fa nodded slightly.
"Okay, it's settled." Ying Zheng said resolutely, "From now on, twelve animals will be used as the zodiac sign of the world above the sky!"
"In order to show respect for the dragon clan, we will replace the word "生" for livestock with the word "生" for life. Ji Fa added.
"Deal!" Twenty-seven said with a trembling snake letter.
