Chapter 96
"I just want you to feel the power of 'electric shock' more intuitively."
"Ah, thank you for being so considerate. I have already felt it. But next time, please be sure to make it clear first and then let me feel it."
The skill "electric shock" is not without side effects. After using it once, Ouyang clearly felt that he could not use the weak electric current ability of "bone and flesh connection".
But the cooldown time is probably only a few hours.
Compared with the powerful attack power of the electric shock, the insignificant side effects are almost negligible.
After eating Ganoderma lucidum, Ouyang took Deoxys and searched in that area for a while, but no other high-energy items were found.
It seems that this kind of thing is something that can be encountered but cannot be sought, and can only be left to chance.
After processing the remaining bear meat and eating it, Ouyang filled his stomach half full, took the bear paws and animal skins for Fan Li, and arrived at the agreed teahouse.
Probably because of the jade seal hanging on his waist, no blind people came to look for trouble this time, but there were still many curious people around.
Being exposed to a crowd of eyes made Ouyang quite uncomfortable.
Fortunately, you don't have to enter Shouchun City, otherwise there would be more people gathered around to join in the fun. And for a city as big as Shouchun, the probability of being stopped and questioned by the city guards is still very high.
When entering the teahouse, the strong smell of blood on the five animal skins scared the shopkeeper and almost called the guards to chase them away. He was probably concerned about Ouyang's personal strength in hunting ferocious beasts, so he did not dare to move easily.
Of course, it is possible that he was simply concerned about the jade seal on his waist.
"You always exaggerate like this...are you a little too showy?" Fan Li in the private room pinched his nose and couldn't help but pointed at the animal skin dragged behind Ouyang and said.
He also couldn't stand the "intoxicating" smell of blood.
"There is no way. Because of my special physique, my food intake is about ten times that of ordinary people. If I don't go hunting, I really can't feed myself. And these animal skins can't be thrown away directly. What a waste."
Ouyang shrugged, then put the bear paws wrapped in lotus leaves on the table: "Fresh bear paws should be cooked quickly, otherwise they will lose their elasticity when they get old."
Fan Li opened the lotus leaf bag, looked at it for a while, and then called the store owner and said: "These two bear paws, one needs to be braised and the other needs to be steamed. Pack the braised ones and steam them as soon as possible."
"Okay, just wait a moment, it'll be ready soon." The shopkeeper bowed his back, carefully took the bear's paw wrapped in lotus leaves, and slowly backed away from the private room.
There was no fault in that cautious look. I don't know if it was because I was afraid of the smell of blood in the private room, or because I was afraid of Fan Li's identity, or maybe both.
Fan Li slightly cupped his hands: "Thank you very much. I don't have any other hobbies, I only like all kinds of delicious food. This fresh bear's paw is really a hot commodity. When I was in Yue Kingdom, I could only get it at the state banquet of the King of Yue.
Only then can I eat one or two."
"Isn't it the most difficult time when you were in Yue, and you still had bear's paws to eat?" Ouyang asked curiously.
When Fan Li came to serve in the Yue Kingdom, it was exactly when Gou Jian, the King of Yue, was working hard on his salary. The Yue Kingdom was in a depression after its defeat. It stands to reason that everyone should be eating the chaff, right?
It is said that Gou Jian used a chopstick to poke the gall of an animal with every meal, so that he would never forget the bitterness of defeat and work hard to become stronger.
It can be called the most inspirational existence among masochists.
"Although the whole country of Yue was mobilized at that time, it was not in a state where it could not survive. The king was still a king after all, and there were always some miraculous strangers who offered some treasures to the King of Yue." Fan Li smiled, took a sip of tea and said, "The beast
I will help you deal with the skin by the way, just buy it at the market price."
"Okay, I'll bother you then." Ouyang also took a sip of tea, but almost spit it out, which made his nose feel uncomfortable. He used his ability to fine-tune his muscles to smooth it out.
Tea at this time was still just boiled tea, which was just picking fresh leaves and throwing them into the pot without roasting them.
Treating it as a drink is actually exalting it. Calling it a "medicinal tea" or a health product is more appropriate.
So as for the taste...anyone who has taken Shenbao or Life Health should know it.
If you haven’t drunk it before... Dongfang Ye Ye Ye should know about it, right?
"By the way, have you found any new clues?" Fan Li pretended not to notice Ouyang's embarrassment and started the topic by asking.
"No." Ouyang put down his teacup and shook his head.
"Have you ever come into contact with those refugees?"
"I had contact, and then... things got even weirder." Ouyang frowned, "I was just planning to tell you about this. I talked with the refugees yesterday and found that they didn't even know when they left their hometown.
.”
"Don't remember?!" Fan Li became interested and leaned forward slightly, making a listening gesture.
"Yes, they have no idea when they left their hometown, when they joined the surrounding refugees, and when they entered the Chu Kingdom."
"Then do they still remember the reason for leaving Wu Di?" Fan Li continued to ask.
"Everyone is talking about the Yue Kingdom's nobles making it impossible for them to survive. But when asked about some detailed things, such as what exactly the Yue Kingdom's nobles did that made it difficult for them to survive, they became squeaky and unable to explain.
Remember that you were kicked out."
"Although King Gou Jian of Yue is not as wealthy as he is, he will never drive away the people he gained for nothing. Hiss..." Fan Li took a breath, "It feels like their memories have been tampered with...
"
"Yes, I feel the same way." Ouyang nodded, recognized Fan Li's point of view, and then continued, "In addition, I also found that these refugees seem to have completely lost their pursuit of life, have no goals, and no
Hope, the whole person looked unusually numb.
If the people in the hospital hadn't asked them to eat some necessary things to maintain the most basic physiological functions of the body, they might not even want to eat and just want to sleep."
"Have you become a walking zombie..." Fan Li rubbed his beard, and then took another sip of tea.
What a hero.
Ouyang secretly praised Fan Li in his heart.
After a while, Ouyang asked again: "By the way, is there anything noteworthy about the Imperial Master Zhu Ji?"
"There is nothing unusual. It's just that he has been struggling recently with whether to assist Mr. Xiong and rescue the imprisoned King of Chu, but in the end he gave up because he was too weak and simply chose to sit on the sidelines. After all, Xiong
Victory has not yet killed the king and established oneself, and the teacher has no name."
"The Chu Kingdom has been really uneasy recently." Ouyang complained casually and continued to ask, "Have you ever asked those refugees?
What should I do? This is what he took in."
"I didn't find an opportunity today or yesterday. The frequency of meeting every day is too high and the time for action is too short." Fan Li suggested, "Why don't we just change the time of meeting to once every five days to accumulate information processing to a certain extent?
Okay, let’s talk again.”
"This is inconvenient. If something really happens, it will be very troublesome if we can't meet each other." Ouyang shook his head and then suggested,
"Otherwise, I will go here every evening. You can arrange for your people to collect animal skins and bear paws here. If I really have something urgent to come to you, I will ask your people to notify you directly.
.”
Fan Li was not pretentious and nodded in approval of this method: "Okay, I just have to trouble you to make a few more trips."
"It doesn't matter, I have to sell these animal skins anyway, it's just a matter of convenience."
…………………………
After having a simple meal with Fan Li (this is only for Ouyang, after all, Fan Li has already eaten the food on this table plus a bucket of rice, but for Ouyang, it will only take one or two minutes to be full), Ouyang came again
In the forest.
This time he did not continue to hunt wild animals, but searched for precious medicinal materials in the mountains and fields.
He didn't quite know what the definition of high energy was, and neither did Deoxys, so he could only broadly define it as - precious medicinal materials.
And I don’t know which medicinal materials they are.
After running until dark, Ouyang only harvested two Ganoderma lucidum and two black bears.
There’s nothing much to say about Ganoderma lucidum, it’s just a mouthful.
However, this time Deoxys was not able to mobilize any new abilities. He only said that he had accumulated a lot of resurrection energy, about 5%.
The black bear finished eating one on the spot and already felt slightly full.
Being in the realm of heaven and man, he naturally realized that this saturation state would cause a waste of energy if he continued to eat, so he did not attack the last black bear.
Of course you can't just let it go.
As the saying goes, "If you want a horse to run, you must first feed it some grass." This black bear weighing more than 300 kilograms has become a corpse. You can't just throw it away no matter what, right?
It would also be a good idea to take it back and serve it to the apprentices who are asking for information, as a reward for their help.
Naturally, they also encountered wolves, but for many reasons such as the fact that it was difficult to defeat four with two fists, and it was too time-consuming to find the wolf king, and the wolf meat was not that delicious, Ouyang always beat them twice to let them know.
Just retreat if it's difficult.
The bear skin and black bear body were tied directly with rattan, and Ouyang ran to the hospital as quickly as possible.
When I returned to Yulou this time, the discussion was far greater than yesterday. Yesterday I only brought back a few large animal skins, but today I brought back a black bear carcass.
Such a burly and intimidating body is as intimidating as a mountain of flesh.
Ouyang's high profile naturally frightened the entire gangsters in Yulou City to dare not show up, for fear of being regarded as an accomplice of yesterday's group of fools and causing a severe beating.
"Tsk, the city chief didn't come looking for trouble?"
Ouyang was at the gate of the city, staring at the Yiwei for a long time. When he found that the fat pig Yiyi Chief was not waiting for him, he put away the jade seal around his waist with some disappointment, straightened the black bear on his back, and continued to walk to the hospital.
