In an instant, Ye Zhaoling pinched Mao Tuanzi hard.
Mao: What are you doing! What are you doing! You have made King Mao Mao’s head bald, do you still want the life of King Mao Mao?!
"Look at them..."
Mao: What? Don't be hesitant when you speak, okay? People who can't fight with a stick are of no use!
"Why don't they have shadows? The shadows under the old man's feet are unusually dark. Why are there no shadows under the feet of the people around him?!"
Mao:???What has no shadow? What nonsense are you talking about? There is no one around the old man! Are you blind or am I blind? Don’t forget! I am a spirit with three hundred years of Taoism, and I have clairvoyance and ears.
It’s not all in vain! Wuwuwu! But I’m bald! Wow wow wow wow wow! I’m so handsome and have the temperament of a tree in the wind! It’s all been ruined by this hateful mortal like you!
Ye Zhaoling held his breath, and a chill flowed from his head to his limbs.
At this moment, she seemed to realize something.
So she turned her head away, but the sound of the soul-calling bells pierced her ears like a demonic sound, knocking hard on her heart. She could only look at the old man again.
Is it worth it?
"Dang-dang-dang-dang——"
"Mom, why are you crying? Are you sad?"
The woman turned her head and wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes: "No, I'm not sad. Mom is not sad. Mom hasn't experienced such a lively time in a long time. Mom is happy."
"Dang-dang-dang-dang——"
"But there are so many tears in mom's eyes. Mom, mom, don't drop the golden beans! Mom and brother are by your side! A Bao really doesn't feel any pain at all!"
The woman turned her head, her shoulders shook a few times, then turned back and touched the little boy's head: "Would you like jelly beans, Chen Abao?"
"Dang-dang-dang-dang——"
"Brothers, do you want to eat too?"
The woman choked with sobs: "Eat, eat, eat them all... don't chew the jelly beans, just swallow them. Give the two jelly beans to your brother Dabao and brother Erbao, and then come back and sit down."
As she spoke, she took out a small jar from her arms, poured out a small black ball, and stuffed it into the little boy's mouth. Then she poured out two more balls for him and asked him to pass them to his two brothers.
Then, she passed the jar to the people around her until everyone was holding black pills in their hands.
They looked at each other, then swallowed the pills, then sat in a row in front of the black pot, and then slowly closed their eyes.
In Ye Zhaoling's eyes, these ten "people" were surrounded by black energy and ghostly shadows——
Clearly not a human being!
The man who gathered firewood threw firewood one after another into the stone stove, and the flames became more and more intense.
It was scurrying in the furnace like a snake, burning higher and higher.
The old man looked at the burning firewood, but his eyes became more and more indifferent, and the copper bell in his hand kept ringing. No layman present knew what scripture he was reciting, and they all kowtowed and watched with ardent eyes.
They were pointing in the direction of the iron pot, but they could not see anything. They could not clearly see the shape of the flames, the trail of thick smoke, and even less the gurgling medicinal juice in the iron pot.
Even if they can't see it, it doesn't affect their piety at all.
"This elixir hasn't been refined yet, okay?"
A cold and stern voice suddenly sounded, Ye Zhaoling came back to his senses, and an old woman in black skirt walked out of the wooden house.
The appearance of this old woman obviously made the "people" in front of the iron pot agitated. Among them, the black energy on "Mom" surged particularly fiercely, swelling to the ground more than ten times.
The iron pot was already boiling, and thick smoke was coming out. The old man was sitting on the edge of the pot, holding his knees with his hands, and was observing the situation in the pot with his head lowered and his eyebrows furrowed.
He raised his head and laughed loudly, and the ringing of the copper bell did not stop: "What? Ten years of hard work and hard work, you can wait, forty years of waiting, you can get what you want, eighty years of life wasted, the head of the Zhao Zhi family, just two hours of endless life, you can wait
Not enough?"
"Master Zhao Zhi, since you don't want to wait peacefully inside the house, please kneel down and go outside."
"The elixir has just been prepared, so don't disturb it."
In order to completely dispel the woman's concerns, he added another sentence lightly: "Otherwise, the medicinal properties of the elixir cannot be fully released. Thousands of people have been asked to wait all night for this pot of soup. Are you responsible? Do you dare to be responsible?
?”
The woman in the black dress snorted coldly, glanced at the black pot, but didn't dare to say anything.
Like everyone else, he knelt respectfully to the edge of the open space, and then kowtowed to his head.
Ye Zhaoling watched this scene with cold eyes.
Everyone is here?
Ye Zhaoling sat up cross-legged, lying on her back with her hands and feet frozen to the point of freezing to death. The Tianling Cap was pressed against the top of the cave. She held the fur dumpling in her arms, put her hands on its warm belly, and murmured.
: "The show is about to begin."
Mao Tuanzi desperately pulled her hand: I am a star, you are a star! I am not a straw boat, don’t shoot your arrows at me! Everything is cold hatred. When I think of this, my hands and feet are cold, my whole body is cold, and my back is cold.
The chills were like a demon from hell on earth. I was so angry that I stood on my head and cried for three hours. It was like I was suffocated in a vacuum for two hours. I couldn't help crying. It really came out all at once. I felt aggrieved and at a loss.
Very powerless and angry! So can you move your devil-like cold chicken feet away? I v. You have 5 cents, no more.
Ye Zhaoling glanced at it: "Did you just say something? The signal here is not good."
Mao: I'm a star, you're a star! It doesn't matter to me, I'm just a withered leaf, falling with the wind. I often wonder whether my withering is my own choice, or whether the wind won't keep me, just like the forest has grown.
There are all kinds of birds. As a lonely King Maomao in the vast Qingcheng Mountains, no one will care about me, no one will miss me.
Mao: If one day I am discovered by humans, maybe my life will come to an end. Human beings are greedy and have desires. In their eyes, animals are endless wealth, and biological resources are their survival.
Money tree, some people hunt wild boars, some people hunt hares, it is not easy for little rabbits, she has ruby eyes, three-petal mouth, long rabbit ears, so cute! Little white rabbit, white and white, with two ears standing up,
After cutting the veins and arteries, it was so cute to be motionless. I peeled off the skin, cut it into pieces, put it in the pot to cook, put some oil, some salt, started the fire and added firewood, moved quickly, had a sip of wine, a sip of vegetables, and lived a good life.
So comfortable!
Ye Zhaoling stuffed his index finger into its throat: "Old Yin Yang is so angry. Come on, don't waste your saliva. You are just a little native on Qingcheng Mountain. Don't go surfing on 5G. This is not good for my CPU.
"
Mao: With your IQ, you also want to ABC me? Thank you, I made you laugh.
Ye Zhaoling looked at its arrogant face, and his palms suddenly felt a little itchy.
In this way, one person and one beast dispelled the darkness in their hearts. The old Taoist doctor below rang a bell and recited unknown scriptures, and the people kowtowing to the iron pot did not feel tired...
Everything seems to be in perfect harmony, but within this harmony, there is also a bit of absurdity, and within the absurdity, there is also a bit of fateful pain.
