Chapter 300
Her whole body arched, her hair exploded, and her hair became even more fluffy, like a big hairy dough, and she was still baring her teeth at the black-robed woman.
The face of the black-robed female Jade Li changed slightly at this moment, as if she noticed something.
The next moment, Fat Mao Wu Chang flew up with vigor that was inconsistent with his body shape, and his figure turned into an afterimage in the air. At the same time, the black-robed female jade carp also took action, and several green juices splashed out from her fingertips.
In the flash of lightning, Wu Chang's body seemed to turn into a pool of liquid, changing continuously in the air. It actually passed through the splashing venom intact, and fell on the body of the jade carp, and then thrust its front paws towards the jade carp. Greetings on the body.
It looks like just a series of soft cat punches.
Every time a punch was struck, there was a sharp whistling sound.
Bang bang bang bang bang!
The black-robed female general fell down in response. The scene was like a fat cat swooping over and sitting down on the jade carp.
Even with the continuous Maomao punches, the ground was shaking slightly, and the bluestone bricks on the teahouse floor shattered.
Long Shankong stood aside, looking at the fat cat beating the black-robed woman, and then at his torn arms, feeling suddenly melancholy:
"I can't compare to a cat. I don't even have the strength of a cat?"
He felt a little sad and angry for a moment, and then kicked down the sergeants who were following Yu Li, feeling a little better.
The black-robed woman fell to the ground and tried to struggle, but the demon cat Wu Chang was already hanging on her body. Under the huge pressure, how could she break free?
Not long after, the woman in black robe had a bruised nose and face, raised her hands in the air and shouted:
"Stop fighting, stop fighting. You and I are both demons, so there must be some misunderstanding..."
"Now you think it was a misunderstanding? When Luo Cheng opened his mouth just now, you rushed to attack us. Aren't you afraid that you might misunderstand us?" Long Shankong sneered, then jumped up and kicked a chopstick on the Eight Immortals table.
At this time, the round-faced merchant Luo Cheng was quietly walking out while holding on to the wall. Unexpectedly, he saw the chopsticks shoot out like sharp arrows, piercing his palm and pinning him to the wall of the teahouse.
In fact, it is not necessarily a misunderstanding.
After all, the target of Qiao Mu and others was indeed the businessman Luo Cheng, but they didn't expect the black-robed woman to be so decisive and take action first.
"Are you also a monster? No wonder." Qiao Mu grabbed Wu Chang's neck and lifted the fat cat up:
"I just heard someone say that you are from King Yu's Army. There are monsters in King Yu's Army too? What kind of monster are you?"
"It's a flying fish, a flying fish from the poisonous cloud swamp deep in the Hundred Thousand Mountains." Jade Li replied dully.
She stretched out her five slender fingers, and the nails on her five fingers turned into a piece of emerald green at a speed visible to the naked eye, like five pieces of crystal clear jasper.
"It turns out to be a great demon in disguise... Is there an antidote?" Long Shankong couldn't help but ask.
The transformed demon was not something that a first-grade martial artist like him could deal with, so he felt a little unsure at the moment.
He preconceived the idea and treated the flying fish demon that could spray venom as a master of poison skills. But wouldn't he be overturned?
"Antidote?" Flying Fish Demon Jade Carp thought for a while and said:
"Drinking more hot water may help relieve some pain."
"..." Long Shankong was silent for a while, then raised his hand and pointed to the corner of the lobby where the two tea guests were foaming at the mouth:
"If there's no cure, just tell me. Are you kidding me?"
"Can those two talkative idlers still drink hot water?"
"I can drink it, why can't I drink it?" Yu Li said:
"They didn't die, they just ended up not being happy..."
"We, King Yu's army, have a reputation after all, and we don't want to kill people randomly. We just give some punishment to those two talkative idlers."
"Toxic gas enters the body, causing vomiting and diarrhea, coma and difficulty waking up, and physical collapse."
"Is this called a slight punishment?" Qiao Mu looked at the two tea guests foaming at the mouth.
"Of course you won't die." Yu Li said seriously:
"After all, I'm not a demon..."
The words have not yet fallen.
Only a few continuous popping sounds were heard, and large and small beads fell onto the jade plate.
Suddenly, a suffocating stench floated in the wind from the direction of the two unconscious tea guests in the corner of the lobby.
Long Shankong looked carefully, and his face immediately turned green:
"The flying fish demon is clearly a poisonous monster with evil intentions. Her poison can actually make people shed their feces..."
same moment.
A pair of wings spread out behind the Flying Fish Demon Jade Carp. She took advantage of the moment when everyone was attracted by the suffocating gas, flapped her wings, and flew out like an arrow from a string, but she was extremely swift.
"Shattered Void Finger."
Qiao Mu flicked his fingers, and a crescent-shaped qi force shot out of the air. However, although his qi force was condensed and strong, it quickly weakened after flying more than ten or twenty meters, and in the end it only barely missed the jade carp's back.
Jade Carp was shaken all over, but its body tilted. Instead of falling from the sky, it flapped its wings again and flew away at a faster speed.
"A martial artist's inner strength fades too quickly, so it's really inconvenient." Qiao Mu covered his nose with his hands and walked out of the teahouse with Long Shankong.
He pointed his fingers together into a sword, and the invisible energy on his fingertips condensed into a three-foot white air sword, slashing at the wounds on Long Shankong's arms.
The rotten and black flesh was cut off by his Qi Sword, and bright red flesh reappeared.
This craftsmanship is still imitated by the martial arts saint he met in Nanzhou.
In the past, the martial arts sage used the chef's sword to cut off the flesh and blood of his fellow travellers, in order to isolate the bones from corroding the fire.
Now, Qiao Mu uses the sword of Qi Jin to cut off the flesh and blood of Long Shankong's arms, which can be regarded as having the same effect but the same approach.
"Unknowingly, I have been able to reproduce the martial arts skills displayed by the martial saints of the past... But if I want to go one step further, where should I go?"
At this time, Qiao Mu was already one of the martial artists at the forefront of human martial arts.
It's just that the sword-banished immortals and martial saints of the past are indeed still far ahead in some aspects.
"In the past, my sword was used to banish immortals and transform into swords to cut through the sky. However, the sword energy can soar across the sky and cut through the immortal formation..."
"Wu Shengren's inner strength seems to be extraordinary. He once suppressed Wu Qingxin's bone-corroding fire until it was extinguished...how did they do it?"
Qiao Mu pressed the question aside for the time being. This was obviously not a mystery that could be solved by just a moment of thinking.
The problem that needs to be solved now is the businessman in front of him, Luo Cheng.
"Mr. Long..." Luo Cheng's face was now filled with a flattering smile, and sweat was pouring from his forehead.
He was just diverting trouble to the east and wanted to take advantage of the chaos to escape.
Who knew Qiao Mu could really take care of the flying fish demon? He didn't even have a chance to escape.
"No, please listen to my explanation. These are really gold, not stones!"
"It's just that these golds are not ordinary common things, but gold flowing out of the Golden Land."
"Didn't I remind you time and time again to make you believe in the legend of the Golden Land?"
"If you believe this, there is it, if you don't believe it, there is none."
"It is precisely because Mr. Long does not believe in it and is not sincere that the gold turns into stone."
"Are you still talking nonsense? Do you think I'm blind?" Long Shankong just sneered and threw the bag of stones in the face of the businessman Luo Cheng.
However, Qiao Mu next to him waved his hand to stop him.
He originally had little interest in gold, but now he became interested in what Xing Shang said:
"Is there something if you believe it or not? If we believe it, the gold is real. If we don't believe it, the gold is fake?"
"Absolutely." Luo Cheng, a businessman, explained:
"Two gentlemen, in fact, I have heard before that deep in the mountains, there is a secret treasure of the Jiangyang Thief, which is a philosopher's stone."
"Although the Philosopher's Stone is real and can turn any stone it touches into gold. But turning stones into gold is too miraculous, so naturally it doesn't just change."
"The so-called turning stone into gold is actually a long-term process, not something that happens overnight."
Long Shankong sneered: "You really made it up."
Luo Cheng, a businessman, said plausibly: "To turn this stone into gold, you need time and sincerity."
"As the saying goes, where sincerity comes, gold and stone will open. Nothing better than this."
"As long as enough people believe that this is real gold and wait quietly for a certain period of time, these stones that have been touched by the philosopher's stone can turn into gold."
Qiao Mu summed it up:
"You mean...as long as you hold this stone long enough and believe in the legend of the Golden Land, sooner or later you can wait until the stone turns into gold?"
"Exactly." Luo Cheng said seriously:
"Of course I didn't intentionally deceive Mr. Long."
"It's just that Mr. Long and I met by chance. If Pan and I told him, he would definitely not believe it."
"So I had to hide the truth about the bag of gold in my hand. In this way, as long as Mr. Long believes in the legend of the Golden Land in his heart, the ten kilograms of gold will be real."
"In this way, Mr. Long gets ten pounds of gold, I get some property, and both parties are happy. Isn't it wonderful?"
Long Shankong hissed, and was a little bit distracted by the merchant.
Listen, it seems to make sense?
It seems that this bag of stones is not as simple as a cover-up. If it can really be turned into gold, then compared with the property he exchanged for it, it will naturally be a bloody profit!
Qiao Mu listened and nodded repeatedly.
It has to be said that this person did have some fallacies of his own, and the responsibility for turning gold into stone without a word was said to be his fault, Long Shankong.
"What you said makes sense." Qiao Mu said slowly:
"But I want to ask a question."
"If you really believe in the legend of the golden land that turns stones into gold, then why did you exchange these ten pounds of gold for Long Shankong at a cheap price?"
Merchant Luo Cheng pursed his lips and was speechless for a moment.
This question really hits home. But he is a sharp-tongued person, so it's not like he can't make up a decent reason.
But when he looked into Qiao Mu's eyes, he could inexplicably taste a bit of unbearable pressure in his eyes that were as calm as a lake.
A trickle of sweat appeared on the forehead of the businessman Luo Cheng, and he said calmly:
"That's... to make more people believe in the legend of the Golden Land." He slowly explained:
"As long as enough people believe in the legend, gold will always be true."
"By then, we will naturally have countless gold and make a fortune."
When Qiao Mu heard this, he suddenly lowered his head and looked at Wu Chang, the demon cat squatting on his shoulder.
If there really is a monster behind the Golden Township...then the spread of the Golden Township legend and the increase in the number of people who believe this rumor mean...that the Golden Township monster is getting stronger?
