Republic of China: My great warlord, many children, many blessings.

Partridge Whistle remained expressionless, only glancing at Shen Hao, because here, only Shen Hao had the final say; without his approval, no one dared to let them off.

The three members of Partridge Whistle dared not go down into the tomb.

Shen Hao said, "Do as you please. If you dare to have any wicked thoughts, I'll wipe out your entire Zaglama tribe."

Partridge Whistle was shocked, never expecting that Shen Hao knew his background.

Taking a deep breath, he said solemnly, "Of course I wouldn't dare, thank you for your leniency, General."

"Alright, you can go now," Shen Hao waved his hand.

Partridge Whistle nodded and began tying the rope.

Partridge Whistle's junior sister, Hua Ling, said worriedly, "Senior brother, this person knows our background. Will something bad happen to us?"

My junior colleague, Lao Yangren, was also somewhat worried.

"Don't worry, I don't see any murderous aura or fishy smell on that warlord. He shouldn't be someone who kills innocent people indiscriminately. Otherwise, the coup just now wouldn't have been resolved peacefully."

Soon, both the Mountain Moving and Ridge Unloading factions arrived at the cliff.

To everyone's surprise, there were buildings below the cliff, which happened to be located on the rooftop.

The group went down into the underground cave through the large hole in the roof.

Partridge Whistle glanced around warily and said, "You two, be careful."

At this moment, Shen Hao, who was on the cliff, said to Daoist Qianhe, "There's a six-winged centipede down there. This guy has an inner core. Help me retrieve it; I need it."

Master Qianhe exclaimed in shock, "It actually contains an inner core! This inner core is the result of absorbing the essence of the sun and moon for hundreds of years. It's practically a spirit!"

"Can you beat him? If you can't, I can give you that big rooster with me," Shen Hao said.

Master Qianhe shook his head confidently and said, "It's just a tiny centipede that hasn't even become a spirit yet. My lightning-struck peach wood sword is more than enough to kill it. This chicken doesn't need it."

Seeing the confident Master Qianhe, Shen Hao said nothing more.

"There's another zombie up there, be careful too."

"Um".

197. After consuming the inner elixir, the tortoise technique achieved minor success.

Looking at Hua Ling, who was dressed in a Taoist robe, Hong Guniang thought the little girl was very intelligent and asked, "What's your name?"

"My name is Hua Ling, and what's yours, sister?"

Everyone calls me Red Girl, but you can just call me Sister Red.

After saying that, the girl in red asked curiously, "Why didn't you come down with me?"

Hua Ling sighed and said, "Sister Hong, I twisted my ankle, otherwise I would have gone down too."

Shen Hao said, "It's better not to go down; going down is just suicide."

The girl in red asked in confusion, "Why?"

"There are poisonous centipedes everywhere below, the kind that can kill with a single bite. There's also a flying centipede, as thick as a person and several meters long."

"I don't believe you. How did you know?"

"Of course, it was Daoist Qianhe who told me. He knew it just by calculating with his fingers," Shen Hao said, making up a story.

Upon hearing this, Miss Hong looked doubtful and simply did not believe it.

As soon as Daoist Qianhe went downstairs, he saw that Chen Yulou and the others looked grim.

Several of my brothers were bitten by poisonous centipedes and died in this underground palace.

Master Qianhe then remembered why Shen Hao had asked him to catch chickens.

It turned out to be the case.

So, he sprinkled some lime to stop the poisonous centipede, saying, "Let's go up first and then we'll talk."

"it is good"

Everyone nodded in agreement.

They all climbed up.

When Chen Yulou had climbed halfway up, he suddenly saw a huge Ganoderma lucidum. He was tempted and couldn't resist grabbing it.

As a result, the Ganoderma lucidum turned into powder, and Chen Yulou was sent flying backward, falling into the abyss.

"The leader!" everyone exclaimed in surprise.

"Let's go up first and then talk about it."

Everyone climbed up.

When the young woman saw everyone coming up but didn't see Chen Yulou, she asked in confusion, "Where is the boss?"

"The boss fell down."

"What?" The girl's face changed drastically.

He hurriedly looked down at the cliff.

As a result, it was pitch black and nothing could be seen.

Just then, a gust of wind came from the bottom of the cliff.

A figure fell from the sky and landed in the grass.

It was Chen Yulou.

Hong Guniang pinched Chen Yulou's philtrum, bringing him back to his senses.

Seeing that he was alright, Chen Yulou and Cai Song breathed a sigh of relief.

"My goodness, there was a huge centipede just now!"

Shen Hao understood that this was the six-winged centipede.

"It's good that everyone is alright," said the girl in red.

Upon hearing this, Chen Yulou stood up and said to Shen Hao, "Governor Shen, it's fortunate you didn't go down there; it's full of centipedes."

Shen Hao said, "Now you know why I caught chickens?"

"You mean to use chickens to fight centipedes?" Chen Yulou and the others asked in surprise.

Partridge Whistle's eyes lit up. "That's a great idea! As the saying goes, every creature has its counter, and this chicken is perfect!"

Chen Yulou said, "But those centipedes are very poisonous; one bite and you're dead. Can this chicken handle it?"

"Of course it can work. Chickens are fast and can not only peck at centipedes to stop them from attacking, but also have a thick layer of keratin on their claws, so they won't get poisoned even if they are bitten by a centipede."

At the same time, the centipede's body that the chicken swallowed would not cause it any harm.

"Why is that?" the girl in red asked curiously;

"Because the food that chickens swallow doesn't go directly into their stomach, but is first stored in their crop."

The venom is softened and broken down in the crop before being sent to the foregut and gizzard, which is why chickens are natural predators of centipedes, scorpions, and the like.

After Shen Hao finished speaking, everyone looked at him with blank expressions.

It felt like listening to gibberish.

It has a kind of mysterious and impressive feel to it.

I've never heard of terms like stratum corneum or crop.

Although I don't understand it, I still think it's amazing.

The girl blinked and asked, "What are you talking about?"

"You don't need to worry about that. Just remember, these chickens like to eat centipedes."

"Really?" Chen Yulou asked.

"certainly"

"Alright, brothers of the Unloading Ridge faction, continue! Kill those centipedes and avenge our fallen brothers!"

"Yes"

Hundreds of chickens, including the largest one, the Angry-Looking Chicken, were taken along and put into a chicken coop.

With some skepticism, the group descended to the bottom of the cliff again.

Looking at the burly and honest-looking Kunlun beside Chen Yulou, Shen Hao smiled.

Now that Shen Hao has bought chickens in advance and killed Luo Laowai, Chen Yulou will not enter through the tomb door, and the simple-minded Kunlun will not die while saving Chen Yulou. Shen Hao has indirectly saved Kunlun.

The group reached the bottom of the cliff again.

Upon seeing the dense swarm of centipedes, he immediately threw the chicken away.

Upon seeing the centipede, the chickens excitedly flew over to it.

They eat centipedes whenever they see them, giggling happily.

The one leading the pack was the biggest rooster.
