Between mountains and seas

Chapter 26 Drunk

The hook snake is very big, so there is a lot of meat to eat, and two people can't finish it.

Shao Jingxing rubbed his belly and leaned against the stone without any image at all: "It's strange, I thought the meat on the belly would be more tender, but I didn't expect the taste to be the same."

There were also snakeskin holders thrown all over Huo Qing's side, more than those next to Shao Jingxing.However, he still sat up straight: "When the hooked snake catches its prey, all the muscles in its body will be exerted." It's not that the stomach is not working hard, why is it so tender?

"When a fish swims, it exerts all its strength..." Shao Jingxing babbled nonsense, "Isn't the meat on the belly of the fish particularly tender?"

"Fish swim mainly by their tails." Huo Qing glanced at him, "Don't you like watching the animal world?" How come you don't even know this bit of common sense?

Shao Jingxing chuckled, "I felt sleepy after eating too much, and I forgot about it for a while. Hey, speaking of it, the food in the world of mountains and seas is delicious." This might be the only benefit.

Huo Qing silently glanced at the hooked snake on the ground that had been eaten, wondering how his colleagues would react if they heard Shao Jingxing's words.

The hooked snake meat tastes good, but no one dares to eat it, let alone eat it to the full like Shao Jingxing.Similarly, everyone knows that blackened animal meat is delicious, but why don't you try it?

There is only Shao Jingxing, looking at the world of mountains and seas is like looking at a cafeteria, right?

Shao Jingxing was still there to express his thoughts: "It's a pity, last time the red fish should be roasted and tasted. Didn't you say that it is a mutant species of sea bream? The meat looks like crystal, and it should be delicious when roasted Bar?"

Huo Qing didn't know.Huo Qing only knew that no one would cook the red meat for scabies, and the raw red meat was really not tasty. I don't want to use red meat to satisfy my hunger.So when I think about it this way, no one has ever tasted the taste of cooked red meat.

"What else is delicious in the world of mountains and seas?" Shao Jingxing ate too comfortably today, and his brain was functioning faster and more divergently than usual. It's not that you can eat fish, steak, mutton, roast chicken, and—"

"Aren't you afraid?" Huo Qing had no choice but to interrupt his smug newspaper dish title, "These things all look very strange." For example, black beasts, and for example, fufu.

Shao Jingxing choked for a moment, and coughed dryly after a while: "Isn't there no way..." When he was talking just now, all he was thinking about was all kinds of meat, and he didn't expect to be afraid at all.Now Huo Qing said, take a look at the ferocious snake head that was thrown aside - still very scary, but the taste is really good...

Huo Qing didn't know how to evaluate this foodie, so he could only say, "It's good that you don't be afraid." Now that you are not afraid, you can join the special affairs department.

"Uh——" Shao Jingxing felt that he had shot himself in the foot, so he could only laugh dryly, trying to change the subject, "Then what, how do we get out? Is there a door to this place?"

How to get out is indeed a very important issue.Even if it was safe for the time being and there was delicious grilled snake meat, Shao Jingxing didn't plan to live here forever.Of course, so did Huo Qing.

"Not here." The one at the bottom of the pool was forcefully dug out by the hooked snakes.Now that the water pool has been suppressed, the cracks underneath will naturally heal, and it would be too troublesome to pass through there.And that crack didn't appear naturally, if it was forcibly torn again, I'm afraid it really won't be able to mend.

"Then - go to the mountain spider's site to find a door?" Shao Jingxing felt that the hooked snake meat might contain alcohol, the so-called alcohol is strong and cowardly, otherwise how could he be so excited to make this suggestion?That's a mountain spider!If there are five or six, seven or eight—uh, after witnessing the scene of hundreds of hooked snakes dancing wildly, seven or eight mountain spiders seem a bit insignificant.

Thinking of the feat he accomplished just now, Shao Jingxing really felt a sense of pride.You must know that he is most afraid of snakes, but this time he not only bravely faced and defeated hundreds of hooked snakes - well, the victory was basically done by Huo Qing, but he also had the help of lighting from the sidelines It's a great achievement - and I can still eat snake meat with such a ferocious snake head, I feel that the whole person has been sublimated.

Besides, mountain spiders should be able to eat, right?He had eaten grilled and fried spiders in Yunnan before, and they were actually quite delicious.Of course, that spider was not as big as a palm, and it seemed huge at the time, but compared with the mountain spider...

Huo Qing looked at him a little speechlessly: "This is far away from the territory of the mountain spider." Did he think that all the doors opened near the mountain spider's house?

"Hehe—" Shao Jingxing laughed dryly without blushing.Nothing can defeat him now!

"Then what, didn't you come in twice before, and both fell on the territory of the mountain spider..."

Huo Qing had no choice but to examine Shao Jingxing's current mental state: "What's wrong with you?" It seemed a bit abnormal, not like the usual Shao Jingxing.

"Ah? I'm fine." Shao Jingxing grinned.Huo Qing grabbed his shoulders, which just narrowed the distance between the two of them, so that he could carefully look at Huo Qing's eyebrows and look down...

"What a beauty!" Shao Jingxing hiccupped, and wanted to lean on her with a smile, "You don't know, that day I fell into the world of mountains and seas, and that big spider was chasing after my ass, I thought I was going to die ...I didn't expect that you would come down from the sky and save my dog's life!"

Huo Qing seems to have caught a hot potato now.He grabbed Shao Jingxing's shoulder, and he looked at him closely, and even reached out to touch his arm: "Does the wound still hurt?"

If you let go, it's even worse, this person seems to have no bones, and it looks like he can't wait to stick to him firmly.Try to push him away, he is like a piece of dog skin plaster, you can't shake it off without a little effort.

But do you really have to work hard?Huo Qing held onto Shao Jingxing and hesitated again.Like Shao Jingxing, he can throw it with one hand.But after all, he just fought side by side, and he also ate the meat Shao Jingxing roasted. Now that the meat is finished, the chef threw it over the wall?This doesn't seem very kind.

After hesitating like this for a while, Shao Jingxing had already put his head on his shoulder, and his mouth was still blah blah: "When I saw you at that time, I thought, oh, this person will shine. It is said in "A Chinese Journey to the West" that my My sweetheart is an unrivaled hero, one day he will step on the colorful auspicious clouds to marry me. What are the colorful auspicious clouds, you came wearing the sun!"

He rubbed his face against Huo Qing's shoulder, and waved his hands vigorously to emphasize his words: "What kind of person is a hero? I think you are! You saved me several times, and there are others— —Hey, it’s a pity that they don’t know how dangerous and great what you are doing! If the enchantment is over and the two worlds merge, my mother, that big spider runs all over the street and burrows into the sewer Dragon hook snake, this is not scary! I, I dare not do it, but I admire you!"

Huo Qing's face turned dark when he said "sweetheart" when he came up, and then felt that his face was hot from being praised, so he pursed his lips and said in a low voice: "It's nothing..."

"It's nothing!" Shao Jingxing disagreed with him, "Look at your injuries! What a dangerous thing! This is a hero! An unsung hero! Your life is meaningful, much more meaningful than mine! "

Huo Qing coughed lightly, and tried to straighten his head: "Actually, you can do it too. You see, your current abilities have improved compared to before—"

"No, no, no, I can't." Shao Jingxing shook his head like a drum.This is a matter of principle, and we must not let go and not drink chicken soup!don't drink!

Huo Qing touched his face helplessly: "Are you drunk?" I've never heard that hooked snake meat has such an effect.And he ate more, and he wasn't as drunk as this man.Does this stuff also vary from person to person?Or have different reactions to different abilities?

Shao Jingxing raised his head with a smile, his face was really pink.His skin is fair, and now he is really rosy.The eyes are still watery, it's like "red in white, black in red" - okay, in fact, Huo Qing's adjectives are quite lacking...

In short, Shao Jingxing just smiled at Huo Qing in such a pink and watery manner: "I can't drink well——no, I didn't drink, I wasn't drunk!"

A drunk would never admit that he was drunk, and he had a tendency to turn into a hooked snake.Huo Qing was considering whether to knock this person out, when he heard Shao Jingxing muttering, "I guess, it's just like this for the rest of my life. In fact, sometimes when I think about it, it doesn't make much sense to cure this disease. So what can I do, it’s not a waste of food. But if it’s really going to die, I’m afraid of death—I’m reincarnated in the wrong place, is it my fault too?”

"What?" Huo Qing was a little puzzled, "What's the wrong place?" He was called reincarnated in the wrong place?So what if you invest in some poor and remote place where you can't even afford to go to school?

"I can't even afford to go to school..." Shao Jingxing scratched his face and thought about it very seriously, "No way. Knowledge changes life, knowledge is power, and people have to go to school." He waved his hand proudly, " So, all the money is going to build a student fund! Don’t keep a cent! Why do you keep it? Who is it? For my second uncle? It’s a good idea!"

Huo Qing has investigated him, but the Special Affairs Section is not the KGB. He hasn't been able to find out everything about Shao Jingxing's eight generations of ancestors. Even his transfer of the group's shares has not been announced to the public because it was done in secret. I don't know either.Hearing Shao Jingxing's words now, he couldn't help being stunned: "What money?"

"It's just my family's money." After Huo Qing was stunned for a moment, Shao Jingxing had already got rid of his hand, crawled over and hugged his shoulder and talked, "I thought this disease was not cured, so I donated all the money. Who I know, who knew that the doctor suddenly said that there is a cure. Tell me, isn't this a lie?"

He lay on Huo Qing's shoulders and writhed angrily: "Quack doctor! He must have misdiagnosed him before! If he had said earlier that he still needs to be treated, I, I, I at least set aside money for the treatment! It's good now, He said there is a cure, and I have no money!"

Huo Qing didn't know how to respond.This situation, this situation is really difficult to find the right words or expressions to deal with.He thought for a long time, and finally said: "I will go to find the meat Ganoderma lucidum." This does not cost money.

"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu..."

In fact, I also want to take advantage of you.Huo Qing suddenly felt a little guilty. This guilt made him not push Shao Jingxing away, but patted him on the back lightly: "Your illness will definitely recover." Let Bai Xin control the illness first. , he must be able to find the meat Ganoderma lucidum.

When Shao Jingxing woke up, he was still in a daze until Huo Qing, who was beside the fire, turned to look at him: "Get up when you wake up. We have to find the door after breakfast." Then he sat up blankly: "Breakfast? "Didn't he just eat a grilled snake for dinner?

Gulu——A protest in his stomach made Shao Jingxing realize something was wrong: "It's morning?" No, he remembered that it was night when he ate snake meat. Where did these few hours go? Why was he blank?

"You're drunk." That's all Huo Qing could say, "Hooked snake meat may have a special effect on you..." So he didn't dare to roast snake meat for Shao Jingxing for breakfast, but walked around the pool, picked A few birds' eggs were laid.

Shao Jingxing looked confused: "I, am I drunk?" Can you still get drunk after eating snake meat?

"Yeah." Huo Qing glanced at him, wanted to add "you're still drunk", but swallowed the words, "what's wrong now?"

"No—" Shao Jingxing only felt refreshed, as if he had slept soundly, without the slightest discomfort of a hangover.If he didn't think Huo Qing was always reliable, he would suspect that Huo Qing was lying to him.

Huo Qing looked at his ruddy face, and said nothing: "Come and eat, we still have to find the door." He couldn't show Shao Jingxing how he was drunk last night, and he couldn't help it. Just let him question it.

"What kind of egg is this?" Shao Jingxing ran to the edge of the pool and washed his face casually, then ran back to watch Huo Qing fry the egg on a small iron pan with great interest, "Your powers have recovered? Oh yes, how is the injury? "

"Yeah." In fact, after eating the hooked snake dinner yesterday, he has almost recovered. Now it is very convenient to have a pot if you want it, and a plate if you want it.As for the wound on the arm that was scratched by the snake's teeth, it has closed and scabbed, and it is about to heal.

Shao Jingxing really wanted to take the opportunity to see the injury and touch it, but Huo Qing didn't give him the chance at all, so he could only squat aside and watch.

The bird eggs are not small, about the size of a goose egg. The outer shell is snow-white, but the egg yolk is bright orange-red.Huo Qing stirred them casually, added some chopped leaves of plants like shallots, and spread them into several omelets.

"It's quite fragrant." Shao Jingxing took a bite, "What kind of egg is this?" Where's the bird?Why didn't the bird be caught together?

"Probably white pheasant eggs." Huo Qing casually poured out the last omelet, rolled it up and stuffed it for Shao Jingxing, and put away the iron plate, "It doesn't matter if this kind of bird lays eggs." So there are eggs, but no birds .

"White Pheasant?" Shao Jingxing thought for a while, he didn't remember this monster in Shan Hai Jing, "Is there anything special about it?"

"The "Spring and Autumn Feeling Essence Talisman" says that if the king is virtuous, he will see the white pheasant. This thing has no great power, but because of its good color, it was often regarded as an auspicious beast in ancient times." Seeing Shao Jingxing's delicious food, Huo Qing said, Suddenly he felt a little bad, and added lightly, "Someone once saw white pheasants laying eggs, and no one was guarding them, but snakes and rats would not swallow them, so they thought they were protected by auspicious signs. In fact, it was only because their eggs contained toxins, so Snakes and rats don’t dare to eat it.”

Shao Jingxing choked on a mouthful of omelette, almost spitting it out: "Yes, it's poisonous?" Hey, this morning's meal was made by Huo Qing!

"Oh——" Huo Qing seemed to have just remembered something, "You lit the fire last night, and it didn't go out all night."

Holding the omelette, Shao Jingxing fell into silence——so Huo Qing can also trick people?

Huo Qing calmly cleaned up the fire, stuffed the last bit of omelet in his hand into his mouth, and greeted Shao Jingxing, "Let's go. You should be able to get out if you follow the current. But be careful. There may be hooked snakes slipping through the current."

Shao Jingxing then stood up, gnawed on the poisonous egg cake, and followed him away.

The place where the water pool is located is a valley, but the scenery is actually quite beautiful, with green grass and green trees, and you can see a few wild flowers from time to time.There were rustling sounds in the grass from time to time, and I don't know what ran past.

Shao Jingxing's spirit of drinking passed away, and his courage immediately returned to his original size. He followed closely behind Huo Qing, not daring to see what was running through the grass, and asked as he walked, "Where are we going to find the door?"

This, Huo Qing actually has no clue now, mainly because he is not familiar with this place: "Let's look for it." There is really no way, there is also a boundary breaker.But this is a last resort choice, it is better not to use it or not.

"Where to find it?" Shao Jingxing sighed, "Why hasn't the Special Affairs Division developed a door finder... If it can detect the unstable fluctuation of the enchantment, can't it be prepared in advance? Just say this If there is such a detector for the snake hook incident last time, then we will be able to find out that something is wrong under Ningbi Lake as soon as we go, and the subsequent things will be much simpler?"

Huo Qing glanced at him: "Do you think the Special Affairs Department doesn't want to develop it?" Detecting the instability and fluctuation of the barrier is like predicting an earthquake. a large number.Until now, only a few important places can be used for fixed detection, and the machine is as big as a bookcase.As for detectors that you can carry around on your person, sorry, not yet.

"Alas—" Shao Jingxing sighed deeply, "They are all short of money."

After he finished sighing, he was curious again: "But why do those mountain spiders always have doors on their sites?"

After asking this sentence, Huo Qing's eyes flickered slightly, and he said after a while, "There may be another reason for that."

Shao Jingxing was about to ask what the reason was, when he suddenly heard a faint sound of booming from a distance, as if a tank had run over the ground, he couldn't help being startled: "What sound?" It sounded straight to their side It came, and even the ground felt the vibration, as if the person who came was not good!
