Two hours later, Ren Baqian and Lin Qiaole sat by the fire. Ren Baqian held a stick in his hand and roasted the jiexue's head over the fire. Lin Qiaole was in charge of drooling, which flowed down her chin, neck, collarbone, and onto the plains.
Her eyes were dull and drooling, and she looked exactly like a mentally disabled child.
But every time the eyes on the head began to move, she would slap them and return to her previous appearance as a mentally disabled child.
The old man sat not far away, and a sense of sorrow rose from the bottom of his heart. This mentally disabled little girl had scratched his face.
Beside him was Zhan Caixian. She sat on the steps with one hand supporting her chin as she looked at the beast's head being roasted over the fire.
"Why isn't this thing cooked yet?" Ren Baqian felt that his hands were sore. He had been roasting it for more than an hour, but there were no signs of it being cooked.
"If it were that simple, why would I have suppressed it here for decades? You can forget about roasting it in this lifetime. "The old man heard Ren Baqian's doubts and immediately raised his head, looking like an expert giving advice.
"What should I do then?" Ren Baqian asked shamelessly.
"If it were alive, you wouldn't be able to do anything. However, it died a long time ago and isn't completely dead yet. Just soak it in the juice of the Three-way Flower for three days and start a fire with phoenix wood to roast it, "the old man pointed out.
"How about eating it raw?" Ren Baqian thought about it and felt that it was too troublesome, so he turned his head and asked Lin Qiaole.
Lin Qiaole pursed her lips. On the one hand, she felt that this thing tasted better when it was cooked, but on the other hand, she didn't want to wait too long. She had a strong appetite when she saw this thing. If she had to wait for another day, her saliva would flood the village, let alone three days.
"Village Chief Grandpa, do you have the Three-way Flower and phoenix wood here?" Zhan Caixian asked the old man.
"How can you find them here? These things can only be found in the Sixty Thousand Mountains. Even in the Sixty Thousand Mountains, I'm afraid that you won't be able to find them without two to three years. Furthermore, you won't be able to chew them raw. Back then, even my master had to expend a lot of effort to kill this thing. "The old man shook his head.
After hearing this, Lin Qiaole didn't hesitate any longer. She immediately took the jiexue head out of the fire and began to gnaw on it. It made a crunching sound as if she was gnawing on wood, and Ren Baqian felt his teeth ache just from hearing it.
"Roar!" Another furious roar appeared in everyone's mind. It was as if Jie Xue's head was letting out an unwilling roar.
Lin Qiaole gave it a backhand slap and continued to chew.
With a smile on his face, the old man calmly looked at Lin Qiaole gnawing on the fruit, as if he could already foresee the result of her failure.
No matter what, he had finally vented his frustrations.
Then, everyone watched helplessly as Lin Qiaole bit off a piece of skin from Jie Xue's head …
"Hiss, how is that possible?" The old man's eyes widened. He had heard about this world puppet from his master. It was said that it was impervious to swords and spears, impervious to fire and water, and difficult to injure with great strength.
Even his master had spent a great deal of effort to kill this Jie Xue.
Even after so many years, he couldn't do anything to Jie Xue's head. His Qingyun Sword could be considered a treasure sword that could cut through iron as if it were mud, and it only produced sparks when he slashed at it.
However, this little girl could actually bite it?
Her teeth were sharper than the Qingyun Sword?
Then, the old man's gaze suddenly became sharp as he stared at Lin Qiaole.
Ren Baqian immediately became vigilant.
"Sure enough, she isn't a human! I initially thought that she had practiced some special martial arts, but it turns out that she isn't a human, "the old man said coldly after looking at her for a while.
"What do you mean?" Ren Baqian's heart skipped a beat when he saw his expression.
"Don't play dumb!" The old man said coldly. Then, he stared at Lin Qiaole for a while before sighing and saying, "Forget it, I can't care about this anymore."
"What do you mean, senior? I really don't know, "Ren Baqian said as he thought that he might be able to find out about Lin Qiaole's origin from this old man.
"It's useless to say more. Good luck." The old man didn't want to talk about this matter anymore. Although he didn't speak anymore, his expression became much colder.
Ren Baqian knew that the old man definitely knew something. Seeing that the old man wasn't willing to say more, Ren Baqian frowned and wondered how he could get more information out of the old man.
In fact, the old village chief didn't know much. Back then, his master had just broken through to the Spirit Wheel level and went to the Sixty Thousand Mountains, but he returned with serious injuries. Before he died, he said that those who weren't stronger than him shouldn't go to the depths of the Sixty Thousand Mountains and should be careful of those who looked like humans but weren't.
Previously, he didn't understand why, but now that he saw Lin Qiaole, he suddenly remembered his master's words.
This was related to the truth of his master's death, so he naturally wanted to know more. However, the battle with the aboriginals was imminent, so he forcibly suppressed his thoughts. He had also made up his mind that after this battle, he would capture this woman no matter what price he had to pay and interrogate her about what was hidden in the depths of the Sixty Thousand Mountains.
After the old man calmed down, he raised his head and asked Ren Baqian, "Tell me your purpose for coming here."
Ren Baqian repeated what he had said at the Golden Ring Residence.
"I have three requests. First, you have to strengthen your attacks and attract the attention of the aboriginals. Secondly, they didn't have enough weapons. Thirdly, she has to follow us. "The old man pointed at Lin Qiaole and said.
"Xi Wanya isn't easy to deal with. Experts of the same level aren't his match in a one-on-one fight. Her skills are pretty good, and if she makes a move, she will be able to delay Xi Wanya for some time. We can then surround and kill the other two Cardinal Heaven experts in the army."
"I can promise you the first and third requests, but the second one is a little troublesome. It's not easy to transport weapons from the Yun Nation, and now we're at war. It won't be easy to transport a large number of weapons over. It will consume a lot of manpower and resources, and it will be easier to be discovered, "Ren Baqian said after pondering for a while.
"That's your problem. After all, if you guys were to go against the Ancient race alone, I'm afraid you wouldn't be able to hold on for long. If you want us to risk our lives, you have to show us something, "the old man said coldly.
Ren Baqian retorted, "Great Xia is here too, right? I wonder where he is? What conditions did he promise you? Also, without us, you guys won't be able to do anything. "
"We can totally wait for them to attack Wangjing and delay the line of soldiers before making a move. The pressure we have to face is almost the same as if we were to make a move now," the old man said.
"As for the Great Xia people, that's between us and them."
"The aboriginals are training new soldiers," Ren Baqian reminded him.
"Their target is definitely you guys."
"Alright, I promise you that I will find a way to transport the weapons over within three months. You guys must make a move after three months," Ren Baqian said after pondering for a while. In fact, none of these three conditions could be fulfilled. However, they had to put on a good act.
"That's settled then. There are empty houses in the village. You guys can stay there for the night." The old man threw these words and returned to his room.
At night, Ren Baqian and Lin Qiaole sat in an empty room. Lin Qiaole was still gnawing on the jie xu's head. When there was no one around, she suddenly looked up and said, "Should I go and kill him? He's hostile! "
"Continue gnawing on your jie xu first. Now isn't the time yet." Ren Baqian waved his hand and looked at Lin Qiaole, who continued to gnaw on the jie xu's head.
Looking at the old man's big reaction, this guy in front of him had a lot of secrets.
There were also a lot of secrets in this world.
The thing in the belly of Mount Liucui, the unknown location of the Sword Mountain, the mystery of the disappearance of the previous two emperors, and now, the origin of Lin Qiaole.
