Chapter 83: Scattering Beans to Make Soldiers
There was a glimmer of light in the sky, and Jiuling Mountain had just awakened from its slumber. Monkeys all over the mountain were still yawning and stretching, and everything seemed to be calm and normal.
"The Grandmaster is back!"
I don't know which monkey demon cheered, but the whole Jiuling Mountain immediately became boiling.
"Ajiu, you're finally back!"
Luo Li was the first to run over and threw herself into Chen Jiu's arms, tears of excitement streaming down her face.
Chen Jiu patted her back gently and comforted her: "Don't cry, Ali, I'm not fine."
"Ajiu, where's A Jiao? Is she okay?"
The old fox fairy flew over second.
Chen Jiu let go of Luo Li with some embarrassment and released Jiaona from the demonic power space.
Jiaona was originally sleeping comfortably in the demon power space . She had eaten a lot of Blood Soul Pills in the past few days and had grown a lot taller. However, she was a little sleepy.
She opened her eyes dazedly, looked around blankly, and asked in surprise: "Hey, Ah Jiu, where is this?"
Seeing this, the old fox fairy couldn't help but burst into tears and said, "Ah Jiao, you are finally back to life."
Jiaona turned her head and looked at him, and asked curiously, "Who are you? Why do I feel like you look familiar to me?"
I am your ancestor!
The old fox fairy said with relief: "We are very familiar with each other. Come, I will take you around and help you recall it."
After saying that, she took Daqing and Xiaoqing, who had rushed over, and hugged Jiaona and left.
They seemed to have something to whisper to each other, and the wolf demon wanted to follow them, but was kicked away by Da Qing.
Wang Er said awkwardly, "Ah Jiu, the Demon King Soup is just warmed up, why don't you eat some first?"
Luo Yong and Luo Meng seemed to have just gotten up. When they heard about eating meat and drinking soup, they immediately nodded and said, "Yes, let's go eat something first."
"Okay, I haven't had anything hot in a few days. Let's go eat something first."
Chen Jiu simply called Sun Dasheng and others who had rushed over after hearing the news to walk into the big wooden shed.
He sat down and drank a bowl of hot demon king soup, and ate a large piece of meat, then smiled and said, "Ah Li, let me show you something good."
Luo Li was quite curious and asked, "What good stuff? Did you bring it back from the underworld?"
Chen Jiu smiled mysteriously, then raised his hand and waved.
A huge pear about ten feet tall suddenly appeared on the platform.
"Wow!" a cry of surprise rang out, and the monkey demons who were queuing up for soup were stunned.
They had never seen pears this big.
Luo Li was also surprised and said, "It's so big, I'm afraid I won't be able to finish it in a few days."
Chen Jiu smiled mysteriously again, then drew out Kaitian, jumped up, peeled off the smallest section of the pear, stretched out his hand and sucked, and an egg-sized pill appeared in his hand.
“Hey, is this a pear core?”
This time even the brothers Luo Yong and Luo Meng were stunned.
Chen Jiu stuffed the pill into Luo Li's hand and smiled slightly, "This is the Blood Soul Pill, which replenishes blood and spirit. Its medicinal power is comparable to that of a miraculous pill. Ah Li, you try it."
How to eat such a big one?
Ahri was stunned for a moment, then simply stuffed the Blood Soul Pill into her elder brother Luo Yong's mouth.
Luo Yong swallowed it without hesitation. Soon, he said with surprise, "Oh, the power of this medicine is really comparable to that of a panacea."
Chen Jiu smiled slightly, and pulled out another row of large pears and peaches. Then he jumped up, swung his knife and opened the lids on them all. Then he raised his hand and said, "Ali, each of you can take two first. Lao Er, Dasheng, Tianpeng, and Dali can each take one first. For the rest, Dasheng, give one to each monkey demon."
Soon, bursts of exclamations were heard in Jiuling Mountain.
The Blood Soul Pill does not obviously improve the power of masters at the level of demon immortals and earth immortals, but for the monkey demons who have just become spirits, the medicinal power is incredibly strong. They only need to practice a little to dissolve the medicinal power, and then they can directly advance to the realm of great demons!
Chen Jiu chatted with Luo Li about the underworld to satisfy her curiosity, and then asked solemnly: "Is there any movement from the imperial army?"
Luo Li shook his head slightly and said, "They seem to be waiting for some powerful person. They are still stationed outside Yidu City and have not moved. However, the aristocratic families of the Zhao family have already gathered tens of thousands of troops in the north of the new domain. It is rumored that Zhao Yuchu, the ancestor of the Tianshui Zhao family, has come."
Does the Zhao family want to seek revenge on them?
Chen Jiu couldn't help but frowned and asked, "Is Zhao Yuchu very powerful?"
Luo Li nodded solemnly and said, "It is rumored that Zhao Yuchu is a top ten expert on the Immortal Ranking. His ability to turn beans into soldiers is quite amazing."
Sowing beans to make soldiers?
How powerful can this magical power be?
Chen Jiu couldn't help but wonder, "What you mean by scattering beans to create soldiers is to scatter a handful of soybeans on the ground and turn them into copper-cast and iron-cast bean soldiers? Those bean soldiers may be good enough to deal with a large army of mortals, but are they useful against an Earth Immortal-level master?"
Luo Li shook his head slightly and muttered, "What soybeans? That's just a rumor among the people. The beans that can really turn into soldiers are the beans grown on the ancient and exotic silkworm trees. It is said that after being cultivated, the bean soldiers are as powerful as the demon king, and their bodies are so strong that even earthly immortals will die on the spot if a bunch of bean soldiers rush forward."
As the two were talking, Sun Dasheng suddenly came over quickly, spread out his palm and said quickly: "Master, look, hey, why did it turn into a broad bean?"
Chen Jiu originally thought that this disciple had found some broad beans for him to eat with his wine, but it turned out not to be the case.
What a coincidence?
Speak of Cao Cao and he will appear?
Could this be the legendary bean soldier?
Chen Jiu said solemnly: "What did these broad beans originally look like?"
Sun Wukong said with a surprised look on his face: "It turns out that these broad beans have hands and feet. They were running around in the jungle early in the morning, as if they were investigating something. I just had to pee urgently, so I ran into them when I ran into the jungle."
Oh shit, it’s indeed a bean soldier.
Chen Jiu quickly stood up and drew out Kai Tian, saying in a hurry: "Great Sage, let go quickly."
Upon hearing this, Sun Wukong quickly threw the beans in his hand onto the wooden board of the platform.
As a result, the broad beans remained broad beans and did not grow any hands or feet.
Chen Jiu extended his spiritual sense to take a look and his expression became even more solemn. There really was a little man with hands and feet inside the broad bean shell!
He thought about it, and simply used his spiritual sense to grab a bean and threw it upwards, then chopped it up with a knife.
With a crisp "ding" sound, the broad bean was cut in half, and the little man inside screamed: "Ouch, ouch, brothers, help me connect it!"
The broad beans on the ground suddenly grew arms and legs. They hurriedly lifted the broad beans that were cut in half and put them together in the middle, and the broad beans turned back into a complete little man.
These little people looked at the Kaitian in Chen Jiu's hand with horror, and suddenly they scattered, jumped out of the platform and scattered in all directions.
Want to run?
Chen Jiu swept his spiritual sense and caught them all back in one go, pressing them on the table.
It seems that this bean soldier is not as powerful as the legend says. Apart from having a harder shell, running faster, and being able to put back together after being cut, it doesn't seem to have any other abilities.
He couldn't help but ask with a puzzled look on his face: "Ahri , is this the legendary bean soldier?"
Luo Li shook his head slightly and said, "I don't know. I haven't seen the legendary bean soldiers yet."
Chen Jiu was stunned for a moment, then turned around and said coldly: "Tell me, are you the bean soldiers sent by Zhao Yuchu?"
The little man on the table shook his head repeatedly: "No, no, no."
no?
Chen Jiu raised his hand and slashed with the knife. A bean soldier screamed and was split into two halves.
However, the two halves quickly merged into one.
He asked again coldly: "Will you tell me or not?"
The bean soldiers looked at the knife in his hand with horror and nodded repeatedly, "Yes, yes, yes."
Sure enough, these little creatures born out of nowhere don’t have very good brains.
Chen Jiu waved his magic weapon again and threatened: "Why did Zhao Yuchu send you here?"
The bean soldiers all said in unison: "The ancestor sent us to gather intelligence."
Can you guys spy on information with your brains?
Chen Jiu couldn't help but asked in surprise: "What did you find out?"
The bean soldiers spoke in unison, "You have several earth immortals, several demon kings, hundreds of big and small demons, and thousands of Qinglian Sect soldiers."
My God, you guys have almost spied out everything here!
Chen Jiu was stunned for a moment, and then pressed on: "It is rumored that your strength is comparable to that of a demon king, why do you only have this much strength? Did Zhao Yuchu not infuse you with too much wood spirit energy?"
The bean soldiers shook their heads and said, "No, no, we are newborns and don't have that ability yet. Only brothers who have practiced for hundreds of years can be as powerful as the demon king."
It turns out that bean soldiers can also practice!
Chen Jiu asked again: "How many of your brothers are as powerful as the Demon King?"
The bean soldiers all said in unison: "Several hundred, several hundred."
My God, hundreds of demon kings!
Upon hearing this, Chen Jiu frowned and pondered for a while, then asked, "Can't other earthly immortals take you into their immortal palaces?"
The bean soldiers all said in unison, "We can't do that. Only brothers who have cultivated to the level of the demon king can do that."
Sure enough, hundreds of demon kings rushed forward and could not be taken into the immortal palace. Their bodies were so powerful that they could not even be killed. The earthly immortals really could not defeat them.
Upon hearing this, Chen Jiu frowned even deeper.
He thought for a moment and then asked, "How many bean soldiers like you do you have? How many other bean soldiers do you have?"
The bean soldiers all spoke at once: "There are also hundreds of us, and the others are also hundreds. We have a life span of 100 years, so there are hundreds of us in a lifetime."
Shit, doesn’t Zhao Yuchu have thousands of bean soldiers in his hands?
Chen Jiu thought about it carefully again, and then asked: "Have all of you come here?"
The bean soldiers nodded repeatedly and said, "Yes, yes, brothers like us are all here."
Fortunately, your brains are not working well.
Upon hearing this, Chen Jiu quickly flew up, circled around Jiuling Mountain, and scanned it carefully with his spiritual sense.
Sure enough, he caught hundreds of them at a time.
Chen Jiu looked at the bean soldiers scattered all over the table and couldn't help but frown and fell into deep thought.
How to deal with these things?
The magic weapon can heal itself if it is cut in half, so why not try cutting it into pieces?
At this time, brothers Luo Yong and Luo Meng also put down their bowls and chopsticks, looking at these bean soldiers in surprise.
Luo Yong couldn't help but ask, "This thing should be very nutritious, how about cooking it and trying it?"
Luo Meng also nodded repeatedly and said: "Yes, yes, this kind of beans should taste good."
Upon hearing this, all the bean soldiers at the table retracted their hands and feet into their shells and trembled. They could heal if cut, but newly born bean soldiers like them could not stand being boiled.
Seeing this, Chen Jiu couldn't help but sigh inwardly.
Oh, forget it. It is a demon after all. Its nature is not bad. Moreover, it can cultivate to the level of demon king. It would be a pity to cook it. Let’s keep it and see if we can tame it.
He simply ran to the Earth Fire Cave and asked the Honghuang Temple to refine a sturdy copper jar, put all the bean soldiers in it, and then put them into the demon power space.
