Chapter 1 The Scholar is Dying Again
“Is it okay?”
“No, it’s not okay, my face is too red.”
“I drank, is it okay?”< br>
“No, no, look at your hands, they still look like pliers. Human hands have five fingers!”
"I just put it in my sleeves so that no one can see it."
"No way, no way..."
...
Li Chuan was lying in a shabby thatched hut. , listening to the two little demons talking outside the house.
One voice is muffled and the other is shrill.
When he opened his eyes, he was Li Chuan, a migrant worker, moving bricks on the construction site. The midday sun was very hot, and his eyes were blurred by sweat. When he opened his eyes, he was Li Chuan, a scholar, a frail scholar. The moonlight shone through the holes in the roof and shone on the ground. , a piece of white forest.
He was kidnapped by these two little demons and was going to be sacrificed to King Black Horn.
The Black Horned King is delicious.
It is said that scholars are the most delicious. They have thin skin and tender meat, with the aroma of books. They must be carefully steamed with water to eat.
The original person was timid. When he heard about monsters eating people, he was so frightened that he rolled his eyes and fainted.
The two little demons who tied him panicked.
What to do? Dead human flesh doesn’t taste good!
Catch another scholar?
Yunqiao Township is located in a remote area with a radius of hundreds of miles. Li Chuan is the only poor scholar who lives alone and is easily bullied!
The two little demons worked together for a long time, and finally came up with a good idea - hire a doctor for the scholar, prescribe two pills, take a breath, and wait until they see King Black Horn before dying!
But a new question arises: How to hire a doctor?
The red-faced man holding up two pairs of large pliers was a crab spirit. He said in a sullen voice: "I wrapped up the pliers and pretended to be a disabled person. I said someone in the family was too sick to get up and asked the doctor Please come here, won’t it be done?”
“No way, no way...”
The big rooster that was shaking its head and jumping around at the feet of the red-faced man was another little demon.
The rooster's spirit is shallow and cannot change into a human being.
But when they start a fight, they say, "No, no, I've seen people with disabled hands. It's not like you. The doctor can see through it at a glance."
This doesn't work, that doesn't work either, crab Jing lost his patience:
"It's done! I won't find a doctor anymore, just leave this scholar here and let him fend for himself."
"That's it, King Black Horn." Don't go, go back to your straw nest, I'll go to my stone cave!"
Hearing this, the rooster spirit pecked the crab spirit's trousers, and said earnestly, "No, no, no, I won't do it." The disciples of King Jiao can’t get the method of cultivation, can’t gain fortune, can’t increase their lifespan, and will turn into a handful of dust in three to five years. Aren’t you and I gaining spiritual wisdom in vain?”
"At that point, what's the difference between us and the roosters fighting in the nest and the crabs lying in the mud?"
The crab spirit was moved again.
He held his breath and concentrated, worked hard again, and finally turned the pliers into hands.
Although the four fingers except the thumb are together and unable to open, the back of the hand, wrist and fingers are all intact.
After swaying left and right for inspection, the rooster nodded reluctantly, "It's done, it's done. You go and find the doctor now. I'll watch the scholar here..."
Before the cock spirit finished speaking, he suddenly felt something was wrong. He twisted his neck and saw Li Chuan standing by the door, watching them quietly.
......
Soon after Li Chuan woke up, he moved to the door with his sluggish body.
He wanted to see how terrifying those two little demons were, and how scary they could be to death.
When I saw the result, I was disappointed.
The rooster spirit did not grow nine chicken heads and ten chicken feet, nor did it have hundreds of eyes on its wings. It just could talk and was larger than ordinary roosters.
The man transformed from the crab spirit even looks quite honest.
Li Chuan lamented that the original person was too timid!
One person and two demons, and after three pairs of eyes looked at each other for a long time, the rooster spirit broke the silence.
He said: "Very good, very good. There is no need to find a doctor. Scholar, come with us quickly."
Li Chuan weakly held the door, "I'm hungry. If I don't eat something, I'm going to starve to death."
When he said the word death, he deliberately emphasized his tone.
Starving to death?
Death?
You can’t die!
The rooster spirit reacted immediately and said, "Third brother, look at him, I'll get him something to eat!" The crab spirit responded, took two big steps, and arrived at Li Chuan's side.
Then Li Chuan saw the rooster spread its wings and flew low and fluttering. In the blink of an eye, he ran into the rice fields not far away and disappeared from sight.
Li Chuan pondered, wouldn’t this cock spirit peck a few earthworms for himself?
While thinking, he took a few steps back into the house and sat down on the thatch pile.
Take a rest.
My body is too weak. After standing for a while, my limbs become sore and I feel dizzy.
The crab spirit followed closely behind, looking wary.
Li Chuan saw this and said: "Brother Crab, you should sit down and have a rest. I am a helpless scholar and I am hungry. Even if I escape, how far can I escape? What? "
After hearing what Li Chuan said, Crab Spirit felt that it made sense.
So he sat down opposite Li Chuan, his eyes bright, his body tense, ready to go.
The hand he finally conjured turned into pliers again - whenever Li Chuan did something wrong, he would use the pliers to take him down.
Li Chuan raised his head, the moon was so round.
He asked: "Brother Crab, don't know what to call me?"
The crab spirit said: "My name is Pang San."
"Where's Brother Rooster?"
"Gong Er."
"Then you should have an older brother, right?"
"Yes, Wu Da."
“Where is he?”
"Once the second brother drank too much and pecked the eldest brother to death."
Is Wu Da a centipede spirit?
Li Chuan thought about the naming rules of these two little monsters, and suddenly felt that the three of them were quite honest.
As long as he doesn’t run away, ask whatever you want.
So he asked: "When did you become a spirit?"
"In spring."
"After becoming a sperm, will you eat people?"
"Never."
"Then do you know any women? Goblin?”
……
During the casual chat,
the third person and Li Chuan talked about many things.
For example, although Gong Er cannot transform, he is the oldest and knows the most. He becomes better with age.
For example, the third demon was born for only a few months. He became a spirit after biting a stone in a pond.
For example, the Black Horned King they are going to seek refuge with is a black rhinoceros spirit. It is said that he has an extraordinary origin. Ten years ago, he occupied a Xuanshui Mountain a hundred miles away. He calls himself the Black Horned King and recruits many disciples. , majestic. The government organized manpower to encircle and suppress him many times, but failed every time.
While talking, Gong Er came back.
He held his neck high, hugged a food box with his two wings, and walked forward with his two claws staggered.
After walking in front of Li Chuan, he put down the food box and said in a sharp voice: "Eat quickly, eat quickly, you can go on your way after eating."
Li Chuan opened the food box and took a look , there were two plates on the upper floor, one with steamed duck and one with minced fish, and two steamed buns and a bowl of egg custard on the lower floor.
I don’t know which family this male was stolen from.
Smelling the aroma, Li Chuan became even hungrier.
He grabbed the steamed bun in one hand and the chopsticks in the other, and began to eat it.
Wind and lingering clouds.
