Chapter 22 Business Ghosts, Old Patriarch

draw

The copper ax in Yuzai's hand hit the face of the transformed snake, and the soldiers of the Akafang clan disemboweled the strange beast on the moist soil that had faded from the flood.

Pulling it down hard, Yu Zai saw this guy's fangs. Apparently when the snake was wet, it didn't chew the food carefully, but swallowed everything it encountered. Now there are still some plants hanging on the roots of the teeth.

Rhizome, and one of them looked familiar.

The copper ax was stained with rotten blood. She left the snake's head and went around its abdomen. She grunted to lubricate her hand, swung the ax and split open his abdomen with one blow!

The flesh, scales and skin were separated, and the smelly internal organs made many soldiers cover their noses involuntarily.

"Isn't this guy a**?"

Ruan Fou stood aside, his face turned green, and he was hunched over. He was relatively close to Ruan Zai, so the smell went straight to his forehead, and he was immediately unbearable. Ruan Pan couldn't help but slap him on the back, shouting, "Brother"

If you don't want to vomit, you should relax your mind and think about the roast chicken from the past two days.

To be honest, Yuzai herself is a little bit too damn stinky.

However, among the floating objects in his abdomen and the mucus that was too disgusting to describe, Yuzai saw something he wanted to see.

Ruanzai's face turned red from suppressing the pain. He pressed hard and clawed at the mucus, and a bunch of strange grass and vines were pulled out by him.

The leaves were still stained with rotten water, and the degree of rot was limited. It was obvious that they had not been eaten for a long time. Now, Yu Zai could come to the conclusion that the intestines of this transformed snake might not be in good condition.

The surrounding soldiers retreated calmly, and those who were close had a slight greenish color on their faces.

Yu Zai couldn't bear it, but he had to take this thing. He put the rattan on the ground. Fortunately, the rain hadn't stopped yet. Yu Zai kept washing his body with high temperature and rain alternately, and also cleaned the rattan at the same time.

"too disgusting!"

Yu Zai shook his hand, then picked up a piece of the rattan, and gently peeled off the strange sharp angles hanging on it with his hands.

as expected!

“Shu (soybeans)!”

A look of joy immediately appeared on Yu Zai's face!

One of the ancient Eight Valleys! This is a treasure!

"Huh?"

The old patriarch came over, picked up the sharp horn, peeled it off, and said in surprise: "This is Shu! How could it appear in the belly of the snake?"

The Chifang clan used to be a wealthy family, and Shu, an important grain that has been cultivated since the time of the Yellow Emperor, is of course also an important food for various tribes in the Central Plains. Although the old patriarch did not grow this food before, it was not that he could not recognize it.

Have you never eaten pork or seen a pig running?

Ruan Zai pinched the beans. Although the beans were not very big, they were obviously about to mature.

This is obviously not in keeping with the season.

"This is not wild beetroot! There is witchcraft in it!"

Yuzai felt that there were still some remaining "traces" on the bean vines, and that kind of aura was exactly the power that only witches had.

"The Waking of Insects has not yet come. The soybeans should have just been sown at this time, and it will be after the Waking of Insects. How can there be green soybeans that have grown, are still hanging on the vines."

"It is true that deification has brought incredible changes to many plants, which is equivalent to an upgrade. But no matter how big it is, can it be bigger than the natural movement of heaven and earth? Can it be bigger than the power of heaven?"

The old patriarch listened to Yuzai's words and looked at him inquiringly.

Yu Zai said with emotion: "The twenty-four solar terms are also one of the major rings of heaven. Spring, summer, autumn and winter all follow the laws of Tao."

The old patriarch said to himself: "Tao?"

Yuzai smiled: "Yes, Tao, Tao is everywhere."

As he said this, Yu Zai felt that he was a little nagging again, and he couldn't help but smile and said: "Haha, this is what I said casually, the Tao is the law, some techniques summarized by the predecessors, these are also the Tao, the so-called principles, principles, principles.

We all understand it, but we don’t understand it if we take it apart? Well, you can just listen to it."

"Just think of it as a young man talking in his sleep."

The old patriarch also smiled: "What Wu said must be right. It has its own truth."

He and Yu Zai touched arms. Invisibly, the distance, understanding, and communication between the old man and the young man seemed to have taken a step closer.

"There must be a tribe nearby. In other words, since this snake escaped from the southwest, there should be a small tribe nearby."

Ruzai stretched out his hand and pointed to the southwest. To the southwest, there seemed to be a slight gap in the mountains that were as tall as the backbone of the sky.

Dangkang said that there are rock salt mines in the southwest.

Now it seems that there are not only mines there, but also tribes!

"Ah, I can't say whether it is good or bad. I am indeed going to borrow some high-quality seeds from other tribes, but the location is in the southwest, maybe a little far away."

Yuzai touched the back of his head and felt a little troubled.

If you go there, it will take a long time to leave the tribe, and it is surrounded by deep mountains and lush forests. No one knows what you will encounter if you go deeper. You must open up little by little. This is the safest way.

"witch!"

There was a sound from the side, and Yu Meng ran over quickly and handed Yu Zai a small lump.

"Over there, it should have rolled in from the southwest when it turned into a snake and sent out water."

Yu Meng pointed to the place where he picked up this thing and said to Yu Zai: "Witch, this is a fortune teller."

Yu Zai wiped off the sand on it. It was indeed a piece of tortoise shell, and it looked newly made. However, the turtle was not big and the shell was not thick enough. Bu Jia refers to drawing totems on the tortoise shell, and then

Writing is used for divination.

When Yuan Zai identified the words, he had the memory of the old witch. The oracle bone inscriptions were not ugly, although they were somewhat different from the oracle bone inscriptions of the Yin and Shang Dynasties.

Asking the sky about good or bad luck?

The wisdom of the ancients.

Yu Zai thought:

"The tiller bud family serves the dragon ghost, celebrating the wind and rain and praying for a good harvest."

This tortoise shell is still very new, and there are no holes drilled on the edge of the tortoise shell. It has obviously not been used for divination, so it is a "first-hand product."

If you want to use tortoise shells for divination, in addition to drilling holes, you also need to throw in grass leaves and thorns, then light a fire, put the tortoise shells inside to burn, and finally take them out to see the patterns. As for what are auspicious patterns and what are evil patterns, these are

The knowledge that only wizards know.

As the saying goes, "The one who determines the good and bad fortunes of the world and controls the prosperity of the world is no greater than the turtle."

The old patriarch touched his beard: "I haven't heard of the Tierya clan. Is it a small tribe near Lingnan? This pattern is called dragon ghost? Is it also the Huangdi clan? It seems that this tribe should be good at planting."

"Wu, Southwest, we have to go there."

The old patriarch expressed his attitude. Since this tribe is good at planting, they must have high-quality seeds. But then he thought about it and patted his head: "But, what should we exchange for it?"

Yu Zai and the old patriarch looked at each other.

"Do you want a lamb? Sell the lamb to them and let the lamb run back on its own?"

The old patriarch patted the mud on his hands and made this unscrupulous suggestion: "Anyway, I'm just selling sheep. I didn't say the sheep won't run away."

Yu Zai patted her face.

Patriarch, you are truly a business genius!
