Chapter 564 They Are All Braised
Over the night, Gao Ge doesn’t sleep at all. He spends the whole night studying the Book of Poison of the Poison Sect, trying to find some clues. He doesn’t get out of the jade scroll and give up until dawn.
For Gao Ge, a person without any medical knowledge, studying the Book of Poison is a kind of torture. It is like an ordinary person reading the obscure writings in classical Chinese.
Yet, Gao Ge’s case is slightly better.
He knows every word of the book but he cannot understand the meaning of the combined words.
“It’s so dang elusive!” Gao Ge heaves a sigh and operates his power of stars. Gradually, he has recharged his batteries, itching to smash the jade scroll.
What an annoying thing!
At breakfast, Xia Lu asks Gao Ge whether they will go to Mount Duanlong again today.
Gao Ge nods his head heavily.
The golden monkey mentioned before that the mandrill was becoming a spirit, but they all didn’t know when that would happen. Maybe it will be a few days later, or today, even the next second. Therefore, there is not much time for Gao Ge and his friends.
They have some porridge, deep-fried dough sticks, buns, small steamed buns and fried dumplings for breakfast. The Yue Family is a big family, so they have a substantial breakfast. However, Chen Wangshi only eats a bit and doesn’t feel like eating anymore, claiming that she is on a diet. In the end, after being persuaded by Gao Ge, she dispels her thought and continues eating. Meanwhile, she mumbles, “You are right. I’m still in the time of growth...”
When she is more or less full, she wipes her mouth and holds Gao Ge’s arm.
“Badass, are we going to catch hares today?” free(w)ebnovel(.)com
Gao Ge is a bit confused and lowers his head to look at her, asking, “When did I say we were going to catch hares?”
“You said we were going climbing today!”
“But what does climbing have to do with catching hares?”
“If we go climbing, of course we must catch hares!” Chen Wangshi asserts eloquently.
This is a kid’s way of thinking.
As Chen Wangshi sees it, climbing must be a dull thing, but catching hares amidst climbing is a very interesting thing. Therefore, even though Gao Ge has never mentioned catching hares, Chen Wangshi’s mind is full of catching hares.
Holding Chen Wangshi, Gao Ge gets into the car. Yue Xincheng drives the car and heads towards Mount Duanlong with the others.
This time, the fox spirit also goes along.
In the car, Gao Ge suddenly hears the sound of the instrument spirit.
“Are you really going to share the fortune with Rakshasa?”
Gao Ge feels startled and then talks to the instrument spirit, “You are still alive?”
The instrument spirit is a bit astounded, “What else can it be? You thought I was dead?”
“You didn’t speak for a long time. Of course I thought you were dead,” Gao Ge says snappishly.
“Ahem, I have been recharging the spiritual jade. Man, this is not easy. I need some time. Of course, I also take the opportunity to restore myself.”
Gao Ge nods his head and continues asking, “What do you mean?”
After all, Gao Ge doesn’t need to actually speak for the purpose of communicating with the instrument spirit, so there is no worrying that Rakshasa inside Chen Wangshi’s body can hear their conversation.
“If you really catch the mandrill, I can suck it into the bronze mirror and refine it. By then, the bronze mirror can become much more powerful. Moreover, with the fortune, it will be easier for us to proceed the road to cultivation.”
Gao Ge thinks for a while and shakes his head.
“What? Don’t you think it’s a good idea?”
“No.”
“Why?”
Gao Ge says, “It’s pretty simple. Since she is willing to do me the favor, I should give her something in return. After all, I cannot just let her help me for nothing. Moreover, I’ve reached an agreement with her and agreed on the condition she raised. I cannot eat my words.”
The instrument spirit has guessed that Gao Ge would say so, but it still finds his thought inexplicable, “How can you be so rigid? As a cultivator, how can you always think for others? Besides, it is Rakshasa. Listen, being a cultivator, if you don’t only care about yourself, it is impossible for you to become a strong man!”
“Was your previous master such a person?” Gao Ge sneers and asks.
“Yeah! It is because my master always meant to live for himself that he could be that strong!” The instrument spirit says complacently.
Gao Ge grins, “That’s why he was killed.”
“You...” The instrument spirit is instantly choked. After thinking for a while, it still cannot say anything to refute him...
As the instrument spirit keeps silent, Gao Ge just leaves it alone.
It seems that the previous owner of the instrument spirit was not a good person.
It can be evidenced by the way that the instrument spirit talks.
It is fine that the spirit doesn’t speak. Once it speaks, it becomes so annoying that even Gao Ge wants to throw it away. It is a pity that the bronze mirror has become a part of his star map. He cannot throw it away at will.
When they arrive at Mount Duanlong, Gao Ge gets off the car.
“Let me go with Chen Wangshi,” Qingrou says, “The mandrill seems to have met you before. If you come along, I’m afraid that it won’t show up easily.”
Gao Ge nods his head. What Qingrou said is actually what Gao Ge wants to say.
Although Gao Ge seldom deals with the mandrill, by a glance at it in Mount Duanlong, he finds that the mandrill is prudent and scheming. It is impossible to prevent themselves from being found if they follow behind.
Qingrou is never strong enough to cope with the mandrill, but Rakshasa inside Chen Wangshi’s body is well prepared. As long as the mandrill appears, it cannot escape for sure. By then, Gao Ge and his friends will rush over and lay siege to the mandrill. In this case, they can surely take down the mandrill. If the mandrill dares to ask them to strike together, Gao Ge will show respect for it then.
Looking at Qingrou holding Chen Wangshi’s hand and walking on the mountain path, and Chen Wangshi turning her head around with unwillingness to part with Gao Ge, he feels so amused. The little girl appears as if Gao Ge is selling her.
Gao Ge glimpses Yue Xincheng’s nervous face and then complains, “What are you afraid of? Chen Wangshi is with her.”
Yue Xincheng pulls a long face, “You just make me even more afraid.”
Compared with the mandrill, Yue Xincheng obviously feels that Rakshasa is more terrifying...
When Chen Wangshi and Qingrou walk away for a while, Gao Ge and his friends start to catch up with them unhurriedly.
With her hand held by Qingrou, Chen Wangshi keeps looking around.
“Qingrou, how come I can’t find any hare here?”
Qingrou has difficulty in answering Chen Wangshi’s question. After pondering for a while, she says in a low voice, “Maybe all the hares have been braised.”
Chen Wangshi’s face turns pale at once...
