Gourmets of the Heavens - Chapter 859 Braised Old Turtle
“An old turtle dares to stir up trouble in the Central Plains and proclaim himself the god of the river?”
“Is this because the people in the Taoist academy and the Superintendent are slacking off?!”
Just when everyone on the shore trembled and didn’t know what to do, a deep and heroic voice suddenly sounded.
Immediately, they couldn’t help but look up, and only then did they notice that the sorceress kneeling on the shore had long since disappeared, replaced by a black and blue giant that was as big as a house and had a fishy smell all over it.
Looking closely again, this gigantic giant that looks like a hill is actually an old turtle that has grown for an unknown amount of time!
It’s just that at this moment, the old turtle who didn’t know how long it has survived has already lay down on the ground and has no life.
There was a gap in the chest, and blood continued to ooze out, even staining the banks of the Huaihe River with a layer of blood.
It also made everyone present couldn’t help but hold their breath, feeling heartbroken and not knowing what happened.
“This is not an ordinary old turtle. There is no such thing in Huaihe Estuary.”
“It should have come from downstream.”
Another clear voice sounded, and at this time only those who were kneeling on the ground saw two figures standing on the top of the two black-covered boats coming against the current on the river.
One was holding a wine jug, carrying a long sword on his back, and his bearded expression carried a sense of freedom and heroism that saw through the world.
Another simple seat in Tsing Yi, obviously his facial features seem to be normal, but it gives people a sense of existence that is deeply imprinted in his mind, and he can’t remember his specific appearance.
Needless to say, this is a passing fairy character who came to cast down demons!
Thoughts flickered, those who hadn’t gotten up quickly fell down again.
A tsunami-like thank you sounded loudly.
“Thank you god for saving me.”
“Thank you Master Immortal, thank you Master Immortal!”
“Bless the gods, bless the gods!!”
All kinds of voices rang out, but the two people on the wupped boat looked at each other and shook their heads quite speechlessly.
“Brother Zhao, look at this old turtle”
The bearded man pointed to the huge thing on the shore, it was Yan Chixia who followed the water vein from the capital of Jin Dynasty all the way to the beach.
And the brother Zhao he was talking about was naturally Zhao You did it.
“It hasn’t become a climate yet, and I can’t even transform into a human form. I can only control a crazy woman who has turned into a walking dead to ask for sacrifices.”
“How could such a monster dare to show up at this time?”
Frowning, Yan Chixia didn’t care about those people who still bowed down, anyway, he wasn’t the one who made them kneel.
“This old turtle, it seems that he has just settled here not long ago, and he may be kicked out of his lair.”
“If my guess is correct, it should be that the battle in the sea is becoming more and more intense, and it is about to reach the point where the final outcome is clear.”
After coming to this world, Zhao Youqian is quite curious about the creatures in various places. After all, this world can transform demons, which in his opinion is equivalent to self-upgrading of ingredients.
So what Yan Chixia didn’t recognize, he saw clearly.
He had heard about this kind of soft-shelled turtle from passing merchants before. It is a special kind of soft-shelled turtle that lives in rivers close to the sea. In addition to the unique taste and taste of soft-shelled turtle, the stewed soup also has its own flavor. The deliciousness of the sea.
It is also a major local feature.
However, this kind of soft-shelled turtle is different from other soft-shelled turtles. It can only appear in places where salty and fresh water meet. The Huaihe Estuary is considered inland, so naturally it cannot be regarded as its growth place.
Even if it turns into a monster, it will follow its habit and find a place that is more in line with its habitat habits as its lair.
Being able to come to completely freshwater inland estuaries says a lot.
Obviously, something was driven to the vicinity of its previous nest, and then it couldn’t afford to provoke it, so it had to endure the change of environment and migrate inland.
That’s why not long after it came here, it wanted to use its own magical powers to ask for sacrifices.
The influence of the environment still has some influence on a monster like it that has not fully enlightened its intelligence.
In an uncomfortable environment, it began to subconsciously seek ways to speed up its own cultivation process.
In the world of Xianxia, there is almost only one way for such monsters to speed up their cultivation. Blood food, human beings!
Fortunately, Zhao Youqian and Yan Chixia came in time, this old turtle has not really devoured humans yet.
After all, only the blood food sacrificed by humans has the ability to increase their cultivation. The ones that were killed before are just a pile of rotten meat.
Originally, it had to sacrifice 30 people at a time, which was enough to make it go one step further.
This monster is also vigilant. After doing this once, it will not come out again for decades. It will leave this river mouth when its cultivation level breaks through, and the matter will naturally dissipate at that time.
Even if someone came to look for it, they couldn’t find anything.
Biansheng met Zhao Youqian and Yan Chixia when they came, and directly punished this cunning old turtle who was a little ignorant just now.
Hearing Zhao Youqian and Yan Chixia’s words, and seeing the two black-covered boats had docked, someone tremblingly stepped forward from below.
“The two immortal elders, are they famous? We must offer incense every day.”
As if turning a deaf ear to these people’s words, Zhao Youqian looked at the big old turtle with interest.
“This can be regarded as a rare ingredient. Lao Yan, look at my finger, and cut off a piece of meat. Later, I will make you a braised old turtle to taste. By the way, I will also try this monster’s cooking to the end. How to deal with it.”
Yan Chixia’s eyes lit up when she heard that there was something to eat.
“Okay! I’ve been looking forward to delicious food for a long time!”
“There’s nothing delicious along the way.”
“Tell me, I’ll cut it off for you.”
So everyone could only watch in a daze as Zhao Youqian commanded Yan Chixia to chop off several pieces of meat and skirts from the hill-like old turtle.
Immediately afterwards, everyone on the black-covered boat was rescued, and after they were sent ashore by the way, they disappeared directly on the water waves in a black-covered boat.
The two groups of people on the bank looked at each other in blank dismay, not knowing what to say to each other.
In the end, with a cry, all the people on both sides dispersed, and the whole Huaikou Town seemed as if nothing had happened, and the familiar lively scene in the past began.
But on the passing merchant ships, many people couldn’t help looking at the huge old turtle at the port.
I don’t know what happened, but at the beginning some people wanted to imitate those two immortals and cut some meat. They didn’t understand until several kitchen knives were hacked and they couldn’t cut a piece of meat.
The food that the gods eat is not something that ordinary people can eat.
Only by relying on dozens of small boats, the old turtle was dragged into the water, and this matter was buried deeply in the water!
