The strongest Shannon

Chapter 149 Grilled Skewers of Grasshoppers

Chen Fang left the Five Elements Stone depressed. He couldn't find an answer to the second question he asked, so Xuan Wu closed his eyes and fell asleep, even snoring lightly. No matter how much Chen Fang shouted, he couldn't wake up.

What was even more frustrating was that Chen Fang tried to approach it a few times, but found that the concentration of water aura in the depths almost formed a solid wall, and he couldn't get close at all.

Because of the difference between the time in the Five Elements Stone and the time outside, Chen Fang didn't dare to stay longer, so he had to leave and go back to the hotel room, thinking about the series of strange things that happened today.

Now he has no mind to pay attention to the cultivator's affairs, his mind is full of the scene of fighting against the huge vortex, and the old turtle Xuanwu who said "you will know later" and fell asleep.

The Five Elements Stone once again showed Chen Fang its mystery. The more it did so, the more Chen Fang felt that there must be more secrets in it.

After thinking about it for a long time, Chen Fang only speculated that Xuanwu should be the same magical creature as Xiaoqing, but he didn't know what it was for a while.

Then he suddenly realized another question, if this is the case, is there a mysterious creature in the earth spirit space?But last time I entered the earth spirit space, I only saw a strange earth spring, and did not see any signs of life.

Let's go in and look for it when you have time. Although Chen Fang was nourished by the water aura before, Chen Fang still felt physically and mentally exhausted. He lay on the bed in large characters, wondering if he would be able to see the old turtle's mysterious smile and the phrase 'not bad' in the end. What's the meaning.

Thinking about it, Chen Fang subconsciously sensed his dantian, and then he was stunned. He was surprised to find that the spiritual power in his body had almost doubled compared to before entering!
Trying to guide him, Chen Fang couldn't help being ecstatic. Judging from the fluctuation of spiritual power, his current level of spiritual power was once again close to the two people Nanshizhen met. It flows very smoothly, and even some places that could not be reached before can already flow easily.

This feeling can't help but make Chen Fang think of a possibility, to get through the meridians!
In the past, the spiritual power in his body could only flow along a few main meridian channels, and the smoothest route was from the dantian to the arms.

But now, the routes for the circulation of spiritual power have almost spread all over the limbs, which means that he can release spiritual power not only through his fingers, but even from the soles of his feet and even his head!

As for the effect of this, Chen Fang has no idea yet, but I have to say that this feeling is much better than before, and it seems that the control of spiritual power is more precise.

After confirming these changes, Chen Fang's eyelids twitched suddenly, and he suddenly realized a problem, if the previous vortex was the test of the old turtle or to help him expand his meridians, what about the previous tsunami?
Then Chen Fang suddenly thought that the first time he activated the water spirit space, he brought water essence in, and the old turtle didn't move; , it almost made a move again; but this time it absorbed the spiritual energy by itself, but it took the initiative to recruit itself in, and opened up the meridians for itself?
Putting this series of dealings with the old turtle together, Chen Fang suddenly understood, is this old turtle's feelings for a snobbish eye?It's okay to bring benefits to the water spirit space, but if it doesn't bring benefits, it will scare itself or even drive itself away!

If this idea is correct, the old turtle has not changed a few times before, but this time after the vortex was induced, his body size has also shrunk a lot. In addition, compared with before, he just opened his mouth. What does this mean?

Combined with the changes in the wood spirit space, Chen Fang's eyes lit up. It seems that every change of the Five Elements Stone must rely on the special aura that absorbs the outside world. Although these auras can also be distinguished into different attributes in terms of fluctuations, they are essentially In fact, there is a big difference from the aura of the space itself.

Regardless of how this principle is realized, the key point is that the interior of the space in the Five Elements Stone is actually awakened with the help of this aura, just like Xiaoqing's hatching, just like that plant is fruiting again!
In this way, the change of the old turtle should be this kind of beneficial change, that is to say, the old turtle caused the tsunami before and scared himself away later, in fact, he was letting himself find the spiritual energy from the outside world for the Five Elements Stone to absorb in a disguised form!
Thinking of this, Chen Fang connected the whole process several times, becoming more and more sure that this should be the reason.

This point is very important to Chen Fang. After getting the Five Elements Stone, he was almost groping with his eyes closed. He clearly realized that the Five Elements Stone hides many secrets, but he couldn't figure it out. It felt terrible.

Although Xiaoqing is also a mysterious creature, she can't speak, and now there is finally a Xuanwu old turtle who can speak, which is equivalent to having a shortcut to understand the Five Elements Stone!
It's just that this old tortoise is also very strange. If you want to get more information from it, the best way is to find out what it wants.

"If it is really necessary to absorb the spiritual energy from the outside world, I'm afraid it will cost money again!" Chen Fang thought while looking at the empty roof.

Fortunately, he now has a large amount of money from going to Nanshi, which can be regarded as a windfall. For the time being, Chen Zhuang has no place to use the money urgently, but it can be used to buy jade and antiques with spiritual energy.

But these things are not so easy to find. Even in Qi Mingxuan's Junzizhai, there are not many jade antiques that can really arouse the interest of the Five Elements Stone, although they can arouse a little reaction.

The reaction of the Five Elements Stone to the spiritual energy of the outside world is similar to that of the gluttonous Xiaoqing. Although almost any spiritual energy can cause a certain reaction, but the quality of the spiritual energy is good enough and the quantity is large enough, so it will have the willingness to absorb it.

I can only let it go, and after the cricket fighting competition is over, I will see if I can find some good things from the city; in order to avoid Qi Mingxuan's overthinking, Chen Fang gave up buying from Junzizhai, after all, he just brought back three yuan. emerald.

bang bang bang! "Brother Fang, open the door, I'm coming here with our team!" Chen Fang was thinking about it, when there was a sudden knock on the door, Dong Xiaohai's excited voice came.

Turning his head and looking out the window, Chen Fang noticed that he had been tossing back and forth all afternoon, and now it was dark, no wonder Dong Xiaohai had rushed over.

Withdrawing his thoughts, Chen Fang jumped out of bed and opened the door. He saw Dong Xiaohai carrying the computer bag he had when he returned to the village. He carefully took off the computer bag as soon as he entered the door. Those who didn't know the appearance thought it contained a bomb.

"The gambling stalls outside are already in full swing, why do you still want to sleep here!" Dong Xiaohai said while carefully taking out eight clay pots and placing them on the table.

Chen Fang opened them one by one and looked at them. Seeing that they were a little tired from the bumps along the way, he released a little water spirit energy for them, and replied casually: "I didn't bring them with me. I went to watch the fun, so don't worry."

Dong Xiaohai hurriedly ran to the toilet to drain the water, and when he came back, he looked up and was a little surprised: "I thought I was dead, why are you still so energetic! Brother Fang, why don't we go to the gambling stall?"

Chen Fang smiled, put the soybeans and green beans on his hands and fed some spiritual energy, and noticed that his ability to control the spiritual energy seemed to have improved again, so he replied casually: "Okay, I have to go out anyway."

Fighting crickets is not just a simple children's game. It can be said that it is also a folk entertainment with a long history and a long history. It is also widely spread.

Fighting crickets is just a native name, a little more formally called Dou Cricket, and it was also called "Qiu Xing" and "Dou Zhuzhi" in ancient times. In Qing Dynasty Pu Songling's "Strange Tales from a Liaozhai Studio" there is a short fable "Cuzhi Weaving", which talks about It is the story caused by the entertainment project of fighting crickets.

And just like everything has both light and dark sides, the same is true for fighting crickets. On the bright side, it is an entertainment activity, full of fun and can even cultivate emotions, etc.; but on the dark side, it is also used by many people for gambling. tool.

The gambling booth Dong Xiaohai mentioned was the gambling method that some people gathered in private during the cricket fighting competition, and made huge profits by betting on the winning or losing of crickets.

Although Chen Fang has not participated in it before, he has seen many similar things, so he is not unfamiliar. As the saying goes, he is not repulsed by a small gambling, and it is right to go out for a walk after going out for dinner.

Summer nights, especially in cities, are always hot and stuffy, not as comfortable as the cool breeze in mountain villages. This may be because of too many buildings and cars, so many people like to gather on streets with relatively good air flow. Enjoy the hustle and bustle of the night.

Since everyone will bring three crickets at most for tomorrow's cricket fight, and Dong Xiaohai has prepared two more reserve players. Seeing that Chen Fang agreed to go to the gambling stall, Dong Xiaohai picked a "Yu Linjun" who was not slippery and said he had been there. Satisfied, Chen Fang hesitated, and also chose the reserve team member.

Soybean is relatively quiet. In Chen Fang's eyes, he is a silent killer, similar to a sniper. He always likes to stay still in one place. Once an enemy appears in its territory, he will suddenly strike and hit.

Aomame was a little more lively, and not as ferocious, but it was still a little creepy when compared with ordinary crickets.

Since you are going to a gambling stall, the rules are not as strict as those in the competition. If you take the two with you, it will be easy to cause trouble. After all, anyone’s cricket is self-preserving. Whether it is killing or crippling, it is not so easy to accept. .

The two each took a clay pot and went out to the street in front of them. When the lights came on, the barbecue stalls on both sides of the street had already opened. Under the lights, there were sweaty bosses behind the tables, baking various skewers in front of the oven. And these tables are already full of guests of all colors, eating skewers and drinking beer, it is a lively scene.

Randomly found a barbecue place, the fat boss saw the clay pots in the hands of the two of them, and immediately smiled and said: "Hey, sit inside the two of you, if you are full, go to the stall over there to have a few big kills, so you can eat comfortably." comfortable!"

Chen Fang smiled, glanced at his oven, and immediately said cheerfully: "How are you doing? Others bring crickets to the competition, and you put strings of grasshoppers on the fire to eat, who would dare to come here to eat?" what!"

Talking about it, he sat down with Dong Xiaohai, and didn't care about it at all. After all, grasshoppers are grasshoppers, crickets are crickets, and he just casually teased the boss.

"Brother, don't you understand? Do you know what it means to eat roasted grasshoppers? It means, no matter how much you jump around, I will kill you all!" The boss reacted quickly, and he said to himself casually, saying Let yourself be happy first.

"Well said, then give us a few skewers of grilled grasshoppers for an appetizer!" Chen Fang was also happy, and praised the boss with actions. Hearing these words, he looked over with disgust.
