After the old witch squirted out the black air, her whole body suddenly became depressed.

She shook her body and almost fell to the ground. Two young female disciples who were also dressed strangely behind her quickly stepped forward to support her, and then stabilized her body.

Although the curse technique is strange and difficult to prevent, it depends on the strength gap between the two sides. The dragon's blood is strong and its magic power is far better than her. Therefore, although the curse against the dragon was successful, it also consumed the old witch's energy and spirit.

If the dragon hadn't been busy dealing with the crowd's siege and killing, and really had to resist the curse with all its might, the old witch would probably have suffered the backlash.

Everyone who was struggling to fight with the dragon was overjoyed when they saw the dragon falling to the ground.

I was forced to fight around by the fierce attack of the dragon before, and I felt so depressed that I didn’t know that it was time to take advantage of its illness to kill it.

"Hurry up, the witch's curse has occurred. Let's go together, don't let the evil dragon run away."

Deng Jiugong greeted him, waved his sword and took the lead in attacking.

The dragon roared angrily, endured the weakness from its body and got up, and retreated while fighting with everyone.

It knew that if it didn't leave, it would probably not be able to leave.

It took not long to turn from a snake into a dragon. In order to increase its magic power as soon as possible, it was only then that the people along the coast wanted to give it tribute to boys and girls for it to swallow and refine it. Unexpectedly, before people had eaten a few, they were forced to this point by these people.

In fact, the vast land is vast, and it is not uncommon for the human race to worship boys and girls as blood food in remote places.

But other monsters are chosen in remote places, and they dare to swagger outside Sanshan Pass like it, and let the tribes pay tribute and eat blood. If Deng Jiugong didn't take people to get rid of it, the position of general officer would not be able to continue.

Seeing that everyone was dragging it to retreat, the feeling of weakness in the body came one after another, and the wounds on their bodies became more and more severe. The dragon had no choice but to activate its vitality again and spew out the water to freeze all directions in order to return to the lake.

However, at this time, everyone was willing to let it go.

Even though the dragon barely returned to the lake, the water on the shore was shallow. Before it could dive into the water, it was tied to its body by several thick ropes, and many soldiers were pulling it tightly to prevent it from leaving.

For a moment, everyone was red in their eyes and tried to kill some of their lives, and they also wanted to kill the evil dragon here.

In the end, the dragon did not escape his life. After being cursed, its combat power was greatly reduced and it was killed by everyone.

Of course, the dragon's counterattack before death also caused a lot of casualties on the tribe, especially the fact that it could spew out extremely cold water and frozen lake water, which hurt many people.

The dragon was killed, and the crowd of people watching the battle in the distance suddenly cheered. Many of them were people living along the coast. Seeing that the dragon was removed, they would not have to live a nervous life in the future, so of course they were happy.

Qi Yuan was also infected and was amazed at the feat of Deng Jiugong and others in his heart to slaughter the dragon. At the same time, he was also amazed at the power and weirdness of the witch's curse.

However, he soon calmed down and walked down the shore.

It’s not that he wanted to watch the dragon up close, but there were a large number of officers and soldiers surrounding him, so he couldn’t get close to him at all.

His purpose was to the shore. Just now, when everyone surrounded and killed the dragon stirred up the lake water and did not escape successfully, many fish and shrimp were unlucky to be washed to the shore by the lake water.

Before everyone could react, he ran to the nearest place first and reached out to grab a few lively fat fish. He broke a willow branch from the willow tree not far away and carried it into his hand through the gills. When he was about to catch it again, the people who were already close to him rushed up and did not give him another chance.

However, Qi Yuan was not depressed, and he was very happy to catch these fish.

People were discussing the battle to kill the dragon happily, but not much attention was paid to the casualties in the battle.

It’s not that they are cold-blooded and ruthless, but that the human race living in the wilderness has long been accustomed to the invasion of monsters. Now they can kill dragons so that they can live a safe life in this area. This is a great blessing.

As for some casualties, this is inevitable. Moreover, the casualties are not serious, and there is also the pension from the General Office, so it is not everyone's turn to worry about it.

It was noisy and when the cheerful people returned to the city, it was already evening.

Qi Yuan entered the city and felt his empty stomach protesting again.

So I exchanged some salt for two of the fish and a family. I found an open space not far from the intersection, picked up some firewood, cut off the remaining two fish, took water from the well next to the road to clean it, put it in the clay pot, added some salt and simmered it over low heat, and then simmered some water myself, cleaned some wild vegetables picked by the road when I came back, and put it in the fish soup and cooked it together.

At this time, Qi Yuan heard the voice of speaking and looked up and found that it was the family that was selling arts in the daytime.

But at this time they looked a little depressed. The old man's two sons were carrying some injuries. Although they didn't look too serious, they obviously affected their activities. The daughter-in-law was crying silently, but she didn't dare to say anything.

Seeing that they parked the carriage aside and unloaded their things, Qi Yuan obviously planned to camp here for rest, so he bowed to the old man and asked, "Brother...hehe, brother, I see that you are going to deal with Jiaolong today with General Deng? Is it because the General's Mansion has not rewarded you, why are you still here to stay overnight?"

He hadn't turned around yet, and then he remembered that he was also an old man now, so he quickly changed his words.

However, he felt very uncomfortable when calling someone who looks about the same age as his grandfather.

When the old man saw someone asking, he was polite, but his expression was a little helpless: "Oh, don't mention it. The General's Mansion did not treat us badly, but the old man was in a low position and did not do much to take his two sons to fight together, so he didn't make much contribution. Although the General's Mansion gave some rewards for the sake of both my sons being injured, it was not too much. He simply exchanged the rewards with the doctor for some herbs for healing the wounds, and it was important to treat the wounds quickly."

Qi Yuan nodded, but also confirmed that the old man was not a paradise, but just simply understood some magic.

The woman was packing up her things and preparing to make some food. Although she felt sad for her family, she couldn't stop eating. The two children on the side were well-behaved and helped to pick up some firewood next to her.

I saw the woman washed some corn, piled it up with a few stones simply to form a stove, put the clay pot on it to make porridge, and some wild vegetables were also placed inside.

Although Qi Yuan came early, he used low heat to stew fish, so he cooked something almost the same time as the other party.

After folding two branches as chopsticks, Qi Yuan flipped through the fish in the clay pot. Seeing that the soup was white and salty, he nodded with satisfaction.

Although there are no other seasonings and no suitable kitchen utensils, the fish here are extremely plump and tender, without any fishy smell, but instead exudes a fresh fragrance.

Qi Yuan put the wild vegetables inside, smelling the fragrant fish soup, and suddenly felt that he couldn't stop his saliva.

With a rumbling sound, the sound of swallowing saliva rang one after another.

Qi Yuan was stunned. He only swallowed it once, how could he sound...

He looked up and found that there were two little bits squatting in front of him. Two pairs of black eyes staring at the clay pot in front of him, and his crystal saliva remained along the corner of his mouth.

"hehe……"

Qi Yuan couldn't help but smile.

The two children in front of him reminded him of his two little nephews, who were about the same age as them. In the past, he saw that his expression was similar to this when cooking, but there was no way. Who made his sister-in-law not very delicious? Because of this, he was busy with a lot of work when he returned to his hometown.

"Yaya, Qiu'er, come back soon."

The woman shouted.

Seeing that her child was like this, the woman felt a little embarrassed, but when she smelled the delicious smell that drifted over, she couldn't help but vent her mouth. Looking at the porridge in front of her, she looked a little full of appetite.

Qi Yuan looked at the two children and ran back to his mother, holding the porridge in the bowl with his hands, while looking at Qi Yuan with his shiny eyes.

Qi Yuan chuckled and stood up and said to the old man: "Brother, you still have extra bowls there. I lend them two to me. I have nothing, but I don't even have food items."

"When you go out, everyone has inconveniences. I just use it." The old man smiled heartily, took two bowls and brought them over.

Qi Yuan thanked him, took out the fish meat, and poured it with fish soup, accompanied by the freshly boiled wild vegetables, the aroma was scented.

He looked up at the two children on his side and waved his hand. Although the little girl named Yaya was a sister, she seemed a little shy and buried her head in her mother's arms and didn't dare to come over. Instead, the little boy ran to the front and bit her hand and looked at Qi Yuan.

Qi Yuan smiled, reached out and handed a big bowl to the boy, and waved him to take it back.

"This... brother, how did this make it?"

The old man felt a little embarrassed when he saw this.

"It's okay."

Qi Yuan picked up the bowl in front of him: "Where are two fish? I can't finish it alone anyway. I just treat it as a way to replenish your two sons. If you are injured, you need to take good care of it. If you leave it behind, it will be bad."

Seeing that he said this, it was hard to say anything else. After thinking about it, he said to Qi Yuan: "Brother, why not come here and go together."

“Okay.”

Qi Yuan was about to talk to the old man, so he sat over without hesitation.

The old man took two pieces of cake and handed them to him, and said, "I am 63 years old this year. Judging from my face, I should be how old I am. What do you call me?"

"The brother's eyes are like a torch, and I'm all... white eyebrows, five years younger than the brother."

Qi Yuan smiled on the surface, but remembered the curse method of the witch today, and then thought of the book of Seven Arrows that Lu Ya used when dealing with Zhao Gongming. Although no one would be bored to curse himself now, he should keep his eyes on him for a long time. If he offended someone in the future and wanted to use a curse to deal with him, as long as no one knew his real name, he would think it would be safer. In this way, he would declare his name to the public in the future.

Although some of them are persecuted and paranoid, this place is a world of gods, and magical methods are emerging one after another. It is not an exaggeration to be careful.

The old man didn't know that in just a short moment, Qi Yuan thought so much in his heart and was still chatting with him.

After talking, I learned that the old man He Yu took his family to walk around and perform his skills to make a living, but now wars are frequent and life is more difficult than before, so there is much helplessness in his words.

"Brother Baimei's fish dish is delicious."

After eating a few bites of fish, He Yu was amazed.

"hehe."

Qi Yuan smiled, and his thoughts quickly turned into his heart, and said, "When it comes to food, I'm not exaggerating it. I'm afraid there is not one who can surpass me in cooking in the world."

"oh……"

He Yu was shocked and looked at Qi Yuan's confident look, quite shocked.

He didn't expect Qi Yuan to be able to make such a loud noise.

Qi Yuan looked at He Yu and whispered: "If there are constant wars today, why don't you find a stable place to settle down? Why should you suffer this wandering? I think your two grandchildren are not old, so it's not a long-term solution!"

"well."

He Yu sighed and said, "I also know that this is indeed the children who suffer, but my family has no tiles and no land. Apart from this method of selling skills, there is no other skill to make a living. How can I settle down?"

"That's how it is."

Qi Yuan pretended to be careless and said, "If my brother wants to, I can teach you some cooking skills. In the future, I will find a place to open a tavern and sell some food, but it will be enough to support your family."

"really?"

He Yu asked.

"really."

Qi Yuan nodded.

The old man was overjoyed and thanked him repeatedly: "I really don't know how to repay my brother."

Qi Yuan chuckled and slowly revealed the fox's tail: "My brother and I are a good match. I can teach me some cooking skills casually, and how can I use the word "repayment". If I really feel sorry for me, I am quite curious about magic. In my spare time, I might as well teach me some magic. How about it?"
