Chapter 66 Coffin Meat, Tai Sui

Yu Que looked nervous and pursed his lips as he thought about how to deal with the situation.

The Red Snake Lady kept looking at him with a smile.

Although the woman did not urge Yu Que, she had already seen that Yu Que was unhappy. At this moment, she did not say anything and did not stop on her own, which was obviously exerting pressure.

"OK OK!"

Suddenly, a shout was heard nearby.

The examiner Lu Tiehua sneered and said, "Hongshe, as an examiner, do you have to compete with the examinees for food?"

Yu Que's expression relaxed and he quickly looked up at the other person with gratitude in his eyes.

Yu Que was really surprised that Lu Tiehua was willing to speak for him.

After all, this man and Hongshe are colleagues, and he and Yu Que are just examiner and candidate. At most, Yu Que's first place in the martial arts subject was selected by the other party himself.

There was still a smile on Mrs. Red Snake's face.

But her eyes were slightly cold, and she said without turning her head: "Lu Tiehua, I am discussing something with this young man, why are you interfering?"

After a pause, the woman narrowed her eyes and said:
"Besides, I'm not kidding. This guy got an eighth-grade magic weapon, and he can only sell it in the end. Instead of that, it's better to sell it directly to me."

Without Yu Que saying anything, Lu Tiehua sneered again, "Can only be sold? You, a woman, really underestimate this boy."

The other party raised his chin and said to Yu Que: "Hey, let her have a look."

Yu Que bowed to Lu Tiehua and immediately released his own spiritual sense to resist Madam Red Snake's spiritual sense that was spreading towards him without any scruples.

In an instant, Madam Red Snake's eyes changed slightly, and she blurted out:

"You have spiritual awareness, kid? Who are you from?"

Yu Que answered without any arrogance or humility:
"Sir, I am not from any family. However, I am currently serving as an apprentice in the Alchemist Guild."

Mrs. Red Snake's expression changed even more. She put away her smile and looked at Yu Que from head to toe with sharp eyes.

Then the woman said to herself:
"That is to say, after you pass the test, you can go to the Alchemist Guild for certification and become a ninth-rank alchemist? Also, if this soldier jar falls into your hands, you can use it to adopt ghosts and assist in alchemy?"

Yu Que bowed deeply to the woman:

"What the Red Snake examiner said is absolutely right."

He said sincerely: "I am not talented, and I have not yet reached the rank, but this jar can hide ghosts, which is just right for me. Please let it go, Madam Red Snake."

Madam Red Snake remained silent. At this moment, she felt that the half-smiling gaze of Lu Tiehua beside her was extremely irritating.

"I am short-sighted and failed to notice that there is such a talent as you among the candidates."

She snorted coldly, but still had some hope. She stared at the jar in Yu Que's hand and said:
"Boy, can you open this jar, or sell it to me and I'll give you another one later?"

"This..." Yu Que's face showed an extremely embarrassed look.

He now understood clearly that the woman in front of him was probably just one of the people who had her eyes on the 120 generals' military jars.

The ghost in the jar may be what the other party wants more.

In particular, Yu Que discovered that the eyes of this Lady Red Snake were extremely similar to those of the gamblers in the Guiji Casino!

Fortunately, at this moment, the examiner Lu Tiehua coughed again and helped Yu Que out of the predicament:

"Red Snake, you'd better let this guy go. He will give you the jar, but you have to cut off the coffin meat on the jar first."

The man sighed and said:
“If my guess is correct, this coffin fungus is most likely grown around the ghost chestnut. Although the quality of this meat is average, it is ultimately grown alongside natural treasures and has been tainted with some of the spiritual energy of heaven and earth.

Using this substance to open up the ancestral temple is far better than ordinary medicinal materials.

If it is cut off now, or the nourishment of ghost energy is interrupted, the quality of this thing will undoubtedly be compromised. "

This time, Yu Que could no longer hold back and his expression changed drastically.

He stared closely at the dark mass of flesh growing on the jar, thinking, "Is this thing really related to the legendary treasure?"

If what the examiner Lu Tiehua said is true, then this warrior jar must not be left incomplete.

Giving in would only affect the quality of his temple, even if it was just a little bit, it would be a taboo. After hearing this, the Red Snake Lady next to him could still keep a cold face and continue to speak:

"Old Lu, how can you be sure that I will hinder this guy from opening the temple? There may be nothing in the jar, not even a ghost."

Lu Tiehua shrugged, looked at the girl, and said with a smile:

"If that's the case, then why do you have any extravagant hopes?"

Mrs. Red Snake wanted to speak again.

But Yu Que on the side couldn't bear it any longer. He lowered his head and said:
"Red Snake Examiner, I will not sell this jar!"

Since it was about opening the temple, he really didn't want to sacrifice anything.

Mrs. Red Snake was so decisively rejected by Yu Que that her expression froze and she held back the rest of the words.

The woman stood in the middle of the field, feeling very unhappy.

In an instant, the atmosphere at the scene became tense.

At this moment, Yu Que lowered his head, frantically thinking of a countermeasure in his mind.

If Red Snake insisted on forcing him to buy the soldier jar, he would report it to the government office and the county school after the exam without waiting for the results to be announced.

He must take this thing back and make a deep note in his heart that this woman is blocking his path to immortality!
Fortunately, Mrs. Red Snake is on her side.

This guy was getting angry, but suddenly he saw the determination on Yu Que's face.

She was shocked and thought to herself, "This boy is not only a young alchemist, but also tops two subjects. He will most likely be the top scorer in this year's county exam... Why would I offend this boy to death just for an eighth-grade ghost jar and the ghosts and gods that might exist in the jar!?"

Feeling timid, Mrs. Red Snake thought about it and felt more and more that it was not worth it.

So she let out a breath, laughed dryly and said to Yu Que:

"In this case, I will not take away someone else's love."

This guy was still pretending, and bowed to Lu Tiehua next to him: "Thank you, Brother Lu, for reminding me, otherwise I would have almost made a big mistake."

Lu Tiehua just nodded, and Yu Que breathed a sigh of relief when he heard that.

He bowed to the Red Snake Lady again and whispered, "Thank you Madam for your help. Thank you even more for selecting me as the top student in the Ghost Division tonight."

Seeing that Yu Que was going down the slope and still remembered her good points, Madam Red Snake's expression became even more relaxed.

The woman suppressed her displeasure, smiled charmingly, and comforted Yu Que in a soft voice.

For example, she pointed to the "coffin meat fungus" on the jar and explained in detail:
“This thing is also called human head meat fungus and blood and flesh Ganoderma lucidum.

Just as Brother Lu said, it grows by consuming ghost qi, corpse qi, yin qi, resentment, etc. After you take it back, before opening the temple, remember not to cut it off in advance.

If possible, try to collect more ghosts into the jar as nutrients. With the help of some refining rituals, you may be able to grow the coffin fungus to be fatter and better quality..."

Yu Que answered them all in person: "Yes, thank you ma'am for your advice."

After the greetings were over, Mrs. Red Snake looked tired and was too lazy to talk anymore.

Yu Que tactfully bowed to this person, and at the same time bowed to the examiner Lu Tiehua with gratitude.

After paying his respects, he took a few steps back and then walked quickly out of the deserted village.

But as he was walking, he suddenly heard the two examiners chatting:
"I didn't expect that the old ghost had a Ganoderma lucidum hidden in his possession. It's a pity that it's too young."

"Hey, he dared to mess with Tai Sui. That old ghost must have been tired of living. His death is not unjust!"

"Coffin meat, meat Ganoderma lucidum?" Yu Que had his back to the two of them, his face suddenly froze.

Because now he also remembered what the Ganoderma lucidum looked like and what it was.

A medical book says: "The shape of the meat ganoderma is like meat... the red ones are like coral, the white ones are like fat, the black ones are like lacquer, the green ones are like emerald feathers, and the yellow ones are like purple gold. They are all bright and clear like solid ice."

The one in Yu Que's hand was exactly as black as lacquer, trembling like a pile of meat, and crystal clear as ice. It was indeed a Ganoderma lucidum.

The meat Ganoderma lucidum is also called "Tai Sui"!
