Chapter 28: People are not as good as the dog's mountain charm
ps: Today the contract status has been changed, Tianshu roars here, asking for recommendation votes, rewards, hookups, and entering the new book list...
Liu Shiba smiled faintly when he heard this and sighed softly.
"Woo...wow...wow!"
As Liu Shiba sighed, Lao Hei, who was lying on the ground, stood up strangely, letting out a low growl from his mouth.
Lao Hei's sharp dog eyes were blood red, staring at Cao Xiong. The hair on his back kept rising and falling with his breathing, as if he could tear Cao Xiong into pieces in the next second...
Cao Xiong looked at Liu Shiba quietly, then glanced at the grinning Lao Hei, and said with a wry smile:
"That's tacky, this old man is really tacky! Eighteen, this old man really can't see through you now.
I didn’t expect, I really didn’t expect that your grandfather would plot against me even after he died. As expected, no one in the Liu family is that simple.
I have been friends with Liu Shiliu for so many years, but I didn’t know that the local dog he had raised for so many years, Lao Hei, was actually the descendant of a black wolf and a bear.
A unique mountain charm, a monster more ferocious than Tibetan mastiffs and lions, among which pure black is the best.
I just said that Liu Shiliu, an old guy who never leaves home, eats so much delicacies from the mountains and wild game? I see..."
Liu Shiba listened silently to Cao Xiong's sigh, but his face was as calm as water, without any expression.
After a long time, Liu Shiba smiled slightly, stretched out two fingers gently, and said with a smile:
"Uncle Cao, two to eight points, eight points for me, two points for you, no counter-offering!"
Cao Xiong was stunned for a moment, a trace of joy and gratitude flashed in his eyes, and he looked at Lao Hei again fearfully.
"Old Hei, get out of here!"
Liu Shiba patted Lao Hei's neck.
Lao Hei glared at Cao Xiong with a sinister look, whimpered, turned around and slipped to the side of the coffin, bared his teeth and continued to drool...
Cao Xiong took a sip of water and whispered:
"Actually, this human-shaped Tai Sui is a living elixir of life.
It is recorded in some unofficial ancient books that the elixir of immortality that Xu Fu of the Qin Dynasty was looking for was actually Tai Sui, a human form that had been immortal for thousands of years and was about to transform into a spiritual body."
Liu Shiba glanced at the child's body in the coffin with dumbfounded eyes, forced himself to swallow a mouthful of saliva, and asked with difficulty:
"You mean? This thing is edible?"
"That's right, but there are particularities to how you eat it. It may be an exaggeration to say that it will lead to immortality, but it is guaranteed to prolong life, increase life span, and treat some difficult and complicated diseases."
Cao Xiong shook his head and showed off his erudition.
Swallowing with difficulty, Liu Shiba turned his head and glanced at the male corpse in the coffin, and said:
"Can you eat this? What's the difference between eating someone?"
"Fart, this treasure of heaven and earth is no longer a human being, but a spirit! For us, it is a magical elixir that prolongs life and strengthens the body."
Cao Xiong's beard curled up and he cursed.
Liu Shiba pursed his lips, touched his chin and said:
"I have seen some people selling Tai Sui meat, but they are not as mysterious as you say."
"Is that also called Tai Sui? That kind of wild Tai Sui is worse than chicken, useless and worthless.
It’s ridiculous how many fools there are in the world. Using chicken feathers as arrows, do you really think that Tai Sui can cure all diseases?”
Cao Xiong smiled disdainfully.
Speaking of this, Cao Xiong said with a mysterious smile:
"With this thing, you won't have to worry about anything in the future. If you sell a palm, you will be rich for the rest of your life."
Liu Shiba smiled faintly:
"There will always be a day when everything is sold out."
Cao Xiong gave Liu Shiba a strange look, hesitated for a moment and then said:
"Actually, you can never eat it all, and you can't sell it all, as long as you don't sell the whole Tai Sui.
If you chop off a finger, a new one will grow overnight. If you chop off a palm, another palm will grow back in a month at most.
As long as you give him a certain amount of nutrients to absorb, he will be able to create a steady stream of income for you, but you must remember one thing: your body and head cannot move rashly."
Liu Shiba's stunned expression betrayed his calm appearance, leaving only the shock and joy in his heart.
"Old man, what are you waiting for? Come and try!"
Liu Shiba jumped up, walked quickly to the coffin, and stared at the humanoid male corpse inside.
Cao Xiong was overjoyed when he heard this, ran over and laughed loudly:
"There is no end to the road. In fact, the old man calculated for himself that my lifespan is running out. I only have three years to live at most.
I didn’t expect to get such a treasure. Now it won’t be a problem for me to live for a few more decades, old man. It’s enough to cut off one of your middle fingers and give it to me to make soup. If you eat too much, it won’t help you.”
Liu Shiba picked up the kitchen knife leaning on the side of the coffin with his backhand, took a deep breath, and gently raised the right hand of the human Tai Sui on tiptoe.
The humanoid Tai Sui looks extremely white on the surface, just like a child. It is soft and smooth to the touch, and even the pores on the skin are clearly visible.
Before making his move, Liu Shiba hesitated for a moment and glanced sideways at the face of the humanoid Tai Sui, with a trace of unbearable expression on his face.
"snort!"
Then Liu Shiba gritted his teeth, picked up the kitchen knife and slashed Tai Sui's middle finger...
The two-inch long middle finger was broken in response, and a thick white liquid gushed out from both sides of the fracture. The liquid retracted into the fracture after a few seconds.
At this moment, the childish face of Tai Sui, who was lying in the human form in the coffin, showed a hint of pain, the corners of his mouth were slightly frowned, and his hands and feet trembled slightly...
Liu Shiba and Cao Xiong, who were so happy that they almost forgot their names, were completely unaware of this scene.
Only Lao Hei, who had been lying next to the coffin, glared with sharp eyes and growled.
"Woo..."
Following Lao Hei's low roar, the slight movement of the humanoid Tai Sui disappeared in an instant...
Cao Xiong happily stretched out his hand to pick up a severed finger that fell on the belly of the humanoid Tai Sui.
However, Liu Shiba grabbed it first and observed it carefully.
"Sure enough, it has the ability to heal and grow on its own. It's just a finger. If we find a suitable corpse, maybe another humanoid Tai Sui will be born thousands of years later."
Liu Shiba sighed in surprise.
Cao Xiong anxiously looked at the severed finger in Liu Shiba's hand and said angrily:
"Why are you still dawdling? The spiritual energy inside is gone when you dawdle. Hurry up and stew it for me. Just this one finger can at least give me, old man, five more years of life."
Liu Shiba turned around strangely and asked:
"Who said I want to feed you?"
Cao Xiong was stunned when he heard this, staggered on his feet, his lips were burnt and his mouth was dry and he said angrily:
"Are you kidding me? Then eat it first, and then chop one for me."
"I won't eat it either. In fact, I plan to feed it to Lao Hei. Lao Hei is already fifteen years old and has only a few more years to live.
At present, in the Liu family, only Lao Hei and I depend on each other for life, and he is also the only thought that grandpa has left for me, you know."
"You stinky boy? Isn't this old man worse than Old Hei?"
Cao Xiong talked a lot, but he didn't seem to be really angry. In fact, he was still a little afraid of Lao Hei's blood-red dog eyes.
The charm of the mountain, the legendary existence of fighting lions and driving tigers...
There is still Tai Sui in human form, is he still missing?
Let Lao Hei try the real and fake heat. It's best to eat it with four legs and kick it. At worst, chop a stick of Tai Sui dog meat soup and drink it later...
