Pangolin is a cute creature that has been used as medicine for a long time. It was first recorded in "Bielu of Famous Doctors" written by Tao Hongjing of the Southern Dynasties: "Mild cold. The five evil evils cause fright and sadness. Burn them to make ashes. Use wine or water and a square inch dagger to treat ant impotence." At the same time, pangolins are full of treasures. Their scales have the effect of promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis, and their internal organs can also be used as medicine.
Of course, the pangolin spirit has another story.
"Can you transform back?"
Zhou Li squatted in front of Li Ci and looked at him carefully. He found that Li Ci was actually only half-transformed. Most of his body was made of scales, and his appearance was relatively immature, like a child. After hearing Zhou Li's inquiry, Li Ci was stunned for a moment, then scratched his cheek and said:
"I...seem to be able to."
"Then try it."
Li Ci frowned and grinned, then he slowly curled up into a ball, and his body began to glow with a stone-like sheen.
After a while, under the gaze of Zhou Li and Tang Wan, Li Ci gradually shrank, and finally became a creature with a long and narrow body, a conical head, a pointed snout, small ears, and no teeth.
"Do you think this is okay?"
Raising his head and squinting his eyes, the pangolin asked timidly: "I... can become this big."
"also."
Zhou Li looked at the other party, then nodded and said, "You should know that we definitely can't let you go."
Pangolin is not stupid, he already knew that these two people would not let him go. Although it was hard to say whether he attacked Zhou Li or Zhou Li and him, his original intention was to attack them secretly.
And the most important thing is that after all this tossing, Pangolin has a general understanding of the two people in front of him, and he also knows that these two old yinbi are definitely not freshmen who have just come out of the world, and they will not let him go easily.
But he was also afraid that these two people, who had been abnormal from the very beginning when they met, would give him some hard work. The fight that lasted only a few minutes left a psychological shadow on the pangolin that will never be erased in this life.
After all, if the snake-shaped Gu attacks again, it will only slow down his heartbeat and make it difficult to breathe. At worst, he will die quickly. But the methods of these two people were really outrageous.
In anxiety, the pangolin awaits its upcoming end. As a timid and submissive spirit, he has never resisted since he was a child. The only time he resisted was when the monster hunter took him and his mother away, and the pangolin released its scales just like he did just now.
The monster catcher had magical powers to protect himself and remained unscathed. But Li Ci's mother died after the storm.
Since then, the fire in Li Ci's heart has been completely extinguished.
"How about this."
After an unknown amount of time, Li Ci heard Zhou Li's words. He shook the scales on his body, and determination appeared on the face of the small and narrow pangolin.
"I will certainly not let you go if I let you go. You and I will go to Beiliang City. You will have your own place to go then."
Looking at the pangolin's two stunned little mung bean eyes, Zhou Li smiled and said:
"Don't worry, we are not asking you to be studied or used as medicine. The Taixue Institute in Beiliang is expanding and needs workers. You can help me. I will take care of food and housing, and I can also give you some money. And I don't worry about it. You won’t go back and snitch.”
Pangolin was stunned. Zhou Li's words were particularly harsh to him, not because he felt that he was being looked down upon, but because he could hear that Zhou Li did not treat him as a beast.
When he talks to himself, he talks about "needing workers" and "a helping hand." It was not like when I was on duty under Mrs. Golden Snake, what I always heard were words like "digging beast" and "get to work quickly".
"Okay, okay, it's all up to you."
The pangolin lowered his head and responded one after another. He was not stupid. He knew that Zhou Li would definitely not trust him. After all, he was a master of earth escape and could easily go back to report the news. Therefore, handing him over to Taixue Academy must have the intention of monitoring him.
But Li Ci also understood that if anyone could protect himself under the power of the Golden Snake Lady, it was only the Taixue Academy blessed by the dragon and tiger energy.
Therefore, there was no need for Zhou Li to say anything to the pangolin, and he honestly led the way. On the way, the pangolins didn't talk too much, but sniffed the soil from time to time to see if there were any scents of other spirits or monsters.
With the pangolin leading the way, Zhou Li and Tang Wan quickly arrived at the nearest Congmu Town. This town is not big, and there are few people there, but the ground is full of neatly stacked wood.
Zhou Li and his party finally found a guard who was looking after the wood on the street to ask for directions, and then found the Gaoma Station here after twists and turns.
"Heh, you guys are quite lucky."
Taking out two wooden signs with white characters on a red background, the Gao Ma station attendant wearing a blue hat looked at Zhou Li and Tang Wan, whose foreheads were level with the counter, and said:
"There is indeed a car at this time. It will pass here in thirty minutes. Just wait with the wooden sign."
"Thank you."
After handing the other party two large coins, that is, two hundred copper coins, Zhou Li and Tang Wan took the pangolin to the platform, found a chair and sat down, chatting idly about what had happened to them in the past few years. thing, while waiting for the arrival of the high carriage.
About ten minutes later, a steady sound of footsteps sounded from not far away. Zhou Li and Tang Wan reacted immediately. They didn't put up a posture and prepare for attack, but they all stood up together, looked in the direction of the footsteps, and put their hands on their waists.
After a while, the figure of a person slowly walking out from the platform entrance gradually emerged. When Zhou Li and Tang Wan saw each other's bright red brocade robes, they were startled, and then looked at each other with serious expressions.
The bright red brocade robe, the flying fish swallowing the sun, the beautiful spring scenery contains the edge of the knife.
Jinyiwei···
Zhou Li has met the Jin Yiwei and has had many interactions with him. He knows that there are only a few people in the Jin Yiwei who can wear the Feiyu suit. After all, this kind of bright red brocade robe is second only to the python robe. A brocade robe means that you have been appreciated by the royal family and have half a foot in the dragon pond.
With steady steps, the moon pulled off the light and illuminated Jin Yiwei's appearance. He has a Chinese-shaped face, a flat eyebrow, slightly round eyes, a straight and high bridge of nose, and gentle corners of his mouth. His appearance is not very handsome, but it gives people a sense of uprightness and peace, and is very calm.
When facing the two people who had no official status, the Jin Yiwei did not respond with a contemptuous salute, but put his hands together and performed an equal salute of clasping hands. He looked at the two of them and said in a calm voice, "It is fate that I met you two at night. Can you tell me your name?"
"Easy to say."
Zhou Li was also unambiguous and said directly: "Catch the demon in Beiliang, Zhou Li."
When Tang Wan on the side saw Zhou Li speak, she also cupped her hands and said delicately and crisply: "Tang Wan of the Tang Gate in the middle of Shu."
After hearing the origins of Zhou Li and Tang Wan's names, Jin Yiwei did not show off. Instead, he pushed his hands slightly and said calmly:
"One hundred households in Fusi, North Town."
"Guo Lingyun."
