Chapter 164 Changxu View(1/2)
Seeing Ji Que put away the unknown paper statue, Lin Xiangzhi couldn't help but worry: "Are you very interested in this thing?"
Ji Cuo nodded and said, "I have a fate with her."
After that, he told Lin Xiangzhi again about what he had encountered in the Song Mansion.
In fact, he had reported this matter to Lin Xiangzhi before, but not in such detail this time.
After hearing this, Lin Xiangzhi was surprised and said: "Last time you said it too casually, I only remembered the big-bellied paper man and the big-assed senior sister. I didn't expect such a follow-up."
"But you are bringing this thing with you, are you trying to find trouble?"
Ji Que quickly denied it: "No, how dare you? Have you ever seen a mortal go to trouble for a god?"
Lin Xiangzhi shook his head and said: "I used to think that no one would dare, but now I think there are, and there are more than one."
"who?"
"You, Ning Hongyu, and the honest venerable man who is still lying on the bed."
At this time, Lin Xiangzhi came back to her senses and murmured: "I just discovered that there are three iron-headed boys hiding in this small demon-conquering branch building at the same time."
According to Ji Que's speculation, Mr. Lu's concubine should have had problems before she got married.
When she covered the statue with the red cloth, did she want the statue to marry her?
It can only be said that Mr. Lu is very lucky. If this concubine was really replaced by this god at that time, wouldn't he be in the bridal chamber with a god that night?
This is Dong Yong alive, which makes people envious.
only......
When he took another look at the paper god, he felt that it was still too ugly, no, to be precise, it was too scary.
He couldn't do it anyway.
It can be seen that the entire Lu family admires Ji Que and Lin Xiangzhi very much. The carriage that sent them traveled dozens of miles outside the town before returning.
The second young master of the Lu family had similar thoughts to the one-eyed Qinglong monk. He wanted to form a good relationship with people like Ji Que and Lin Xiangzhi, and also see if there was any way to cure his father.
After all, my father had been completely unconscious since that night.
Ji Que never thought about this at all, because he was really not good at saving people.
To be honest, a kind man like Mr. Lu would probably be knocked unconscious by a punch from a righteous person, even if he was not knocked unconscious.
Ji Que and Lin Xiangzhi actually had a map for this trip.
It's just that the place they went to was too remote and the map was very crude, so it quickly became ineffective.
After leaving Xilin Town, we were greeted by a scene of smoke and grass.
At the back, even the road became narrower and narrower until it was completely submerged in weeds.
They entered no man's land.
Ji Que and Lin Xiangzhi couldn't help but feel that no living person had passed through this realm for many years.
As they walked among them, they looked very small, as if they would be swallowed up by the wilderness as they walked, and not even their bones would be left.
Such a sense of loneliness was something they had never encountered before on their journey, because at that time, they could occasionally see people.
And now, it was already the sixth day since they left Xilin Town, and they had not seen anyone.
Ji Que was lucky to have Lin Xiangzhi with him. Without this beautiful cat-eared girl to accompany him, he really didn't know how to deal with this loneliness.
"belch."
At this time, Ji Que couldn't help but burped.
You say this desolate journey didn't have any highlights. That's not true. At least they ate a lot of wild game.
Because of Ji Que's luck, wild boars, black bears, pythons and other wild animals often come to attack them, so they naturally become the source of food for Ji Que and Lin Xiangzhi.
The most outrageous time was when Ji Que and Lin Xiangzhi slept in the same place, but when they woke up the next day, they found a pair of bear paws. They followed the bloodstains and found a cave.
There was also a dead bear inside.
The bear had several broken bones in its chest and several fist marks on its body. It was obvious that Ji Que had beaten him to death in his dream.
What moved Ji Que and Lin Xiangzhi the most was that they found a jar of honey in the cave.
The "jar" is actually a hard nut shell.
Obviously, this honey is the dead bear's savings.
Since the bear is dead, the honey cannot be wasted.
Although he got honey, Ji Que still felt that it was a bit outrageous. He couldn't help but look at Lin Xiangzhi and said, "Is this how you do sentry?"
Lin Xiangzhi was a little embarrassed and said, "I was too sleepy last night."
She was so sleepy that a bear attacked and was beaten to death by Ji Que, and she didn't even notice?
Lin Xiangzhi has begun to doubt herself whether she is still a cat.
Afterwards, the two naturally ate bear's paws.
Bears have four paws, but in terms of taste, only one front paw is the fattest and most delicious.
Because bears hibernate in their caves after entering winter, and on the eve of hibernation, they have nothing else to eat, so they have to lick their forepaws. For this reason, the meat on their forepaws is particularly plump.
However, only one of the pair of forepaws is delicious. It is said that in addition to licking one paw in the hibernation hole, the bear has to press the other paw against its anus, so the front of the "exit" is blocked.
The palm has a faint smell.
This knowledge was naturally told to him by Lin Xiangzhi, the former eldest daughter of the Lin family. After all, Ji Que had never eaten such high-end food.
What he cut off happened to be a pair of bear's front paws. Lin Xiangzhi distinguished it and determined that the one on the left was just the essence of the bear's paws.
This bear paw is very thick, and after removing the fur, the plump flesh is revealed.
One person and one cat build a pot and live together.
Soon, the bear's paw was divided into two, one half was cooked in soup and the other half was roasted. It can be said that "one paw eats two".
When roasting, in order to enhance the flavor, Lin Xiangzhi poked many holes in the bear's paw with a sword, and then coated it with the newly acquired honey.
Soon, when the flames grew a little bigger, the oil spilled from the bear's paws made a crackling sound. Coupled with the fragrance of burning cypress, just smelling it greatly increased people's appetite.
When the skin of the bear's paw was roasted until it was golden brown, and the oil mixed with honey flowed on it, Ji Que and Lin Xiangzhi couldn't help but share the food.
After taking this bite, Ji Que felt that his whole body was glowing.
“Bear paws are really great!”
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Lin Xiangzhi had no time to talk and just focused on eating.
After eating the piping hot roasted bear paws, naturally there is a bowl of fragrant bear paw soup.
As a whole bear's paw entered its belly, one person and one cat couldn't help but let out a sigh of satisfaction.
Fortunately, the occasional snacks have alleviated their loneliness.
During the endless search for a way out, Ji Que couldn't help but think that it would be really terrible if there was no fire in this world.
The fire brought warmth and briefly gave them the smell of human fireworks.
But most of the time, the person and the cat still feel desolate and lonely, wishing they could stick together for comfort.
They walked like this, only following the general direction, and they could no longer remember the time.
Ji Que vaguely remembered that this should be the fifteenth day after they left Xilin Town. Lin Xiangzhi suddenly saw half a stone tablet among the grass and said in surprise: "What is that."
Ji Que walked over and saw a few words "Mohu" engraved on the stone tablet. He was suddenly shocked and said, "It's a grave! It's the grave of the dead!"
"Grave!" Lin Xiangzhi's eyes lit up.
Afterwards, the man and the cat actually cheered in front of the grave.
The presence of graves means that there are people, and this means that they have finally passed through that large area of uninhabited wilderness.
At this moment, Ji Que deeply felt that the metaphor was correct.
This world is too desolate. The towns and villages inhabited by humans are like isolated islands scattered on the sea. Going from one place to another is like a voyage, and the road is full of mysterious unknowns and desolation.
Sure enough, as they continued walking along the graves, Ji Que and Lin Xiangzhi discovered a small town.
This small town is called "Linshan Town". It is very dilapidated, but it is inhabited after all.
Linshan Town is very isolated. After two outsiders, Ji Que and Lin Xiangzhi, came, they attracted the attention of many townspeople.
This town doesn't even exist on the map, nor does it have a government office or an inn.
It's not so much a town as it is a larger village.
The reason why Ji Que and Lin Xiangzhi came to such a remote place was because they were going to Changxu Temple to inquire about news.
Changxu Guan is in this direction.
But after Ji Que inquired about it, he found that the people here only knew about Qinghan Mountain, but they didn't know about Changxu Temple.
The information given by Ning Hongyu is that Changxu Temple is located in Qinghan Mountain.
Qinghan Mountain is both big and small. Searching aimlessly is like looking for a needle in a haystack.
