On the Avenue
Chapter 30: Live off the land
When he thought of this, he immediately jumped up and jumped towards the world where the sun shined.
"Boom!"
He passed through the sunlight and the projection of another world, and hit the roof of the temple.
Chen Shi landed, rubbed his head, and looked up.
The sunshine comes from another world, and it seems that if you follow the sunshine, you can enter another world.
He jumped up again, his palms gently passing through the sunlight. However, the sunlight and the other world were like dreamy bubbles, visible but intangible.
"It seems that the time and space in the temple is not another time and space, but there is a mysterious power in the temple that allows me to see another world, allowing the sunshine and moonlight of that world to shine in."
Since he started to exchange for real blood, his appetite has increased greatly. Regardless of the medicinal diet made by his grandfather or the food made by Grandma Sha, he ate them all, but he was still hungry after a while.
He starved so quickly that he lost five or six pounds in two days.
He originally only weighed sixty pounds, but after losing five or six pounds, he looked even thinner.
Chen Shi also knew that he had reached a critical period.
The first step in refining the Holy Fetus is to exchange for true blood.
When human beings are still infants, true blood flows in their bodies. The blood is pure and does not require cultivation. The baby does not breathe through the mouth and nose, but connects the mother's breath through the navel, which is called fetal breath. The gas required for breathing is transmitted to the baby through the mother's blood, and the gas is filtered by the mother's body without impurities.
This is the innate true energy.
But after birth, breathing through the mouth and nose and inhaling the dirty air of the world is the acquired air. From then on, the body gradually becomes heavy and dirty, and the innate pure air in the body becomes less and less. In old age, the innate true energy is exhausted and death occurs.
Monks who practice evil magic often exchange blood when they grow old, injecting the blood of young people into their bodies to make themselves younger. This is to use the innate energy in the blood of young people to replenish their own innate energy.
What's more, they can practice Zihe Che, which means digging out the placenta of pregnant women and refining the blood of unborn babies to replenish it into their own bodies to delay aging.
Chen Shi is hungry quickly, and it is also a kind of tonic, absorbing the essence of food, replenishing the innate Qi, and refining the true blood.
However, ordinary food contains grain essences and contains very little energy. On the contrary, grandpa's medicinal diet contains a huge amount of medicinal power, which is suitable for absorption.
It's just that Chen Shi practiced too fast and couldn't keep up with the subtleties in his food, so he began to consume his muscles and internal organs to refine his blood.
If you can't supplement enough food, you will "starve to death"!
The faster you practice, the faster you will starve to death!
Chen Shi had to slow down his practice speed first, because he spent most of the day eating and looking for food.
Grandma Yuzhu’s ducks were almost unable to lay eggs due to his extortion. Very few of the watermelons in the melon field of Mrs. Wuzhu were eaten. Most of the fish in the Yudai River had also disappeared in the past few days. Even he He often went straight to Gangzi Village for food, and Granny Sha now had a headache when she saw him running over.
Chen Shi even considered using himself as bait to catch a big gun to taste.
He is too hungry.
On this day, Chen Shi came to the Tiger Temple. Not long after practicing, he felt very hungry. After staying for a while, his hunger became even stronger.
He was so hungry that he went out in a hurry, intending to find some game or wild fruits to pad his stomach. However, this mountain was a newly grown mountain. Apart from the big trees in the temple, there were no other plants on the mountain, and even animals were unwilling to approach it. this mountain.
Chen Shi had no choice but to walk down the mountain road and reach the fat babies in the forest. He was already dizzy with hunger. He persisted and took a few steps forward. Suddenly the world spun and he fell to the ground with a thud.
In his daze, he saw the blue sky and white clouds, and felt that he seemed to be lying flat, but the moving leaves and flowers told him that he was moving.
He was so hungry that he passed out again.
I don't know how long it took, but Chen Shi opened his eyes again in a daze, and seemed to see the beautiful face of the mountain girl, but soon it turned into the old face of Granny Zhuang.
"Wake up, wake up!"
When Grandma Zhuang's voice came, Chen Shi felt that his hunger was slightly reduced, and his vision gradually became clearer. Only then did he realize that he was lying in the hole of Grandma Zhuang's tree. There were mushrooms in the hole, emitting a faint light.
The girl from the mountain stream sat quietly aside, and the fat babies with tiger-like heads and thick brains were also surrounding the bed, staring at him with wide-open black eyes.
Grandma Zhuang was grabbing a fat baby, grabbing his hair, and plucking a few red fruits the size of her fingers from his head. The pain made the baby open his mouth wide and cry.
Chen Shi rolled his eyes and saw that the red fruits on the heads of the other fat babies had become much looser, and they must have been picked.
Grandma Zhuang said with a smile: "You fainted from hunger. It was the Guoguos who carried you here. Xi Nu helped you cook a bowl of fish fillet porridge, but you got hungry too quickly and it was useless. I used ginseng and fruit to make it." You saved me."
Chen Shi stood up, feeling no hunger at all, and quickly thanked them.
The mountain girl's face turned red with embarrassment, she chuckled and left gracefully.
The fat babies came to Chen Shi, and some jumped on his knees. They looked solemn, babbling with serious words and gave him instructions, probably asking him to eat on time, and then left.
Chen Shi watched them go away and thanked Granny Zhuang again. Just as he was about to walk out, he suddenly stumbled and almost fell.
Granny Zhuang grinned and said: "The medicinal power of the ginseng fruit in your body has just reached the intestines and stomach, and has not yet spread to the whole body, so it is no longer strong. You can rest for a while before leaving."
Chen Shi had no choice but to sit down.
Strange to say, he didn't eat much ginseng fruit, but he felt full. The ginseng fruit in his stomach began to digest, turning into waves of heat that spread throughout his body, making him feel indescribably comfortable.
"What is the ginseng fruit that my mother-in-law gave me to eat?" Chen Shi asked.
Grandma Zhuang seemed to rarely talk to people in the past and was not good at chatting. Chen Shi asked about it and then said: "It's the fruit of Guoguos."
Chen Shi became more and more curious: "What are the Guoguos?"
Grandma Zhuang said: "The ginseng in the mountains and forests is thousands of years old. The ginseng fruit is the fruit they bear. One fruit can save a person's life. You are too hungry, so I will give you a few more."
Chen Shi was shocked. How many years are those fat babies?
Can't tell at all.
"Grandma Zhuang, do you know about the Tiger Temple?" Chen Shi thought for a while and asked.
"I know. It's the place you've been to these past few days. Not long ago, it arched out of the ground together with the mountain, and it grew to this high overnight. It grew much faster than me."
Speaking of this, Granny Zhuang showed envy.
She grows slower.
Chen Shi cheered up and said with a smile: "The Tiger Temple emerged from the ground, indicating that it was here before, but later sank into the ground. So, has my mother-in-law seen the Tiger Temple at that time?"
Grandma Zhuang recalled carefully and shook her head: "I have never seen it before. As long as I have memories, it was always flat land and there were mountains not long ago."
Chen Shi was startled.
Granny Zhuang is the biggest tree he has ever seen, probably thousands of years old.
However, Granny Zhuang is just a new branch that sprouted from the side of the tree stump after her body died!
Its body is even more ancient!
Doesn’t this mean that the sinking of the Tiger Temple underground happened before Granny Zhuang was born?
How ancient must that be?
"My true body should have been destroyed six thousand years ago."
Grandma Zhuang thought, "I should have grown a body six thousand years ago."
Chen Shi quickly asked: "Does your mother-in-law have any memories from before her body was destroyed?"
This was the first time that Granny Zhuang encountered this kind of problem. She tried hard to remember, but suddenly her face changed slightly, showing a look of fear. She couldn't help but trembled, and said in a hoarse voice: "Fire! So many thunders and fires! Cut off my body! It's coming over. !”
Her body trembled and she shrank into a corner, as helpless as a little girl.
Chen Shi quickly stepped forward to comfort him.
"For Granny Zhuang to be so frightened, it seems that the accident that happened six thousand years ago is not trivial. Could this be related to the sinking of the Tiger Temple into the ground?"
Chen Shi thought about it, but quickly put the question behind him, "I'm just a teenager, why should I care about these adults' things?"
The medicinal power of ginseng fruits is indeed very strong, and it is indeed a magic medicine that can cure people's bones. However, after Chen Shi ate these ginseng fruits, he became hungry again after a long time.
"The ginseng fruit is more powerful than grandpa's medicine, but it is limited." Chen Shi said sincerely.
Two days later, Lao Chen's family was destitute, and Huangpo Village was also destitute.
Even Grandma Sha from Gangzi Village was so devastated by Chen Shi that she couldn't get rid of the blame.
In the past few days, Granny Sha looked at Chen Shi no longer as a good son, but as a debt collector.
"If I continue eating and drinking together, the people in the village will starve to death with me."
Chen Shi reflected on himself and realized that he could not sit back and let the crops grow before harvesting the next crop, so he decided to go hunting in the mountains.
Black Snake Xuan Mountain is coiled on a hilltop of Qianyang Mountain. Looking into the distance, it has just rained. At this time, the clouds in the mountains have cleared and the fog has dispersed. It is a good weather.
It exhales into clouds and is blown away by the wind.
Suddenly the ground in the valley shook, and a giant beast as big as a small mountain rushed out of the forest.
That is a seal.
A wild boar lives for fifty years, grows to eight hundred pounds, is called a pig, and can already be called a spiritual animal.
It has a big head, small body, and amazing brute force, even a bull can be knocked away.
Feng Xi is a wild boar that has lived for more than a hundred years. Its head takes up two-thirds of its body, its manes are like sharp thorns made of steel, and its tusks are like ivory. It can cut mountains and rocks with endless brute force.
Feng Xi, who rushed out of the forest, was not too big. He was nine feet tall at the shoulders, more than two feet taller than an adult. His fangs were more than two feet long and as thick as an arm. He could lift several thousand kilograms of boulders and knock down several people. A big tree is also relaxing.
However, there was a small figure in front of this Feng Xi. He grabbed Feng Xi's two fangs with both hands and was actually wrestling with this Feng Xi!
This figure was none other than Chen Shi. He was skinny and skinny, but surprisingly powerful. However, he was too small compared to Feng Xi.
One man and one pig wrestled, and Chen Shi was pushed all the way out of the forest by Feng Xi. It was not because he was weak, but because he only had two legs. The ground could not bear the power from his legs, and he was pushed backwards on the plow.
"In terms of strength, you are not as good as me!"
Chen Shi shouted loudly, exerted force with both arms, and broke off Feng Xi's two thick fangs. He exerted force with his waist, and with a roar, he knocked this huge beast to the ground!
When Feng Xi was about to stand up, Chen Shi exploded with strength, held down the pig's head, and smashed Feng Xi's head open with a few punches!
Feng Xi twitched a few times and then stopped moving.
Chen Shi picked up the mountain of meat and walked straight to the nearby mountain stream, fearing that he would starve to death if he took a step slower.
Orochi Xuanshan looked from a distance and watched Chen Shi busy by the stream.
It does not interfere with these.
Due to natural selection, it once had a blood-eating era and hunted other spiritual beasts.
It was looking at Chen Shi.
Beside the stream, Chen Shi washed and peeled the spiritual beast Feng Xi, and divided it into small ribs, large ribs, kidneys, offal, cartilage, ears, head meat, elbows, and trotters, and cut it into pieces in detail.
He also cut down a few big trees, and put the ones suitable for roasting on the racks to roast, and the ones suitable for stewing in his own big pot to cook.
——He also brought the pot that Old Chen used to cook medicine.
The fat on Feng Xi was roasted on pine wood to make golden oil, and some coarse salt was sprinkled on the roasted small ribs.
"He eats much more than I did back then." The big snake Xuanshan thought to himself.
He continued to look at Chen Shi, and saw that Chen Shi was brushing oil on the roasted small ribs. The first table-sized roasted ribs were already cooked.
Although Feng Xi is a spiritual beast, it has a strong smell of mutton and coarse meat, which is difficult to bite.
Fortunately, Chen Shi has been tempering his body these days, and his teeth are getting better and better, so he can eat without any problem.
Especially the crispy and browned parts, which have no smell of mutton. When you take a bite, it squeaks, and the fat that is roasted to be crispy on the outside and tender on the inside explodes in your mouth, moistening the eight thousand taste buds on your tongue. Each taste bud secretes saliva in an instant, which can be said to be a feast for your heart.
There is spiritual power in the flesh and blood. When it falls into the stomach, the spiritual power bursts out and turns into nutrients to nourish Chen Shi's five internal organs, and the hunger is greatly reduced.
Seeing this, the big snake Xuanshan feels a little hungry at this moment after three thousand years of eating wind and drinking dew.
After a while, the big snake Xuanshan saw Chen Shi holding up the hind leg of Fengxi and walking towards him.
This hind leg has been roasted to be crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. Chen Shi is afraid that it is too big and difficult to roast and taste, so he cuts deep marks on the hind leg, rubs it with coarse salt, and stuffs it with fragrant leaves of various plants to fully marinate it.
The giant snake Xuanshan sniffed the aroma coming from Fengxi's hind legs. After three thousand years of eating wind and drinking dew, he actually felt a little greedy.
