General of the Heavens

Chen Yulou's tomb raiding attempt has failed yet again.

Anyone who stepped into the barbican was like a turtle in a jar; to think of surviving was nothing short of a pipe dream. Chen Yulou abandoned his idea of ​​robbing the tomb through the barbican without hesitation.

Ning Chen was very relieved that this guy had finally calmed down. He was afraid that Chen Yulou would cause trouble again, especially his idea of ​​using explosives to blow up the tomb.

Two days later, Partridge Whistle and the others returned.

As expected, Partridge Whistle found the nemesis of the poisonous creatures of Bottle Mountain: a magnificent rooster.

"Quickly, give this brother a look!"

Chen Yulou was even more eager to see what kind of chicken could restrain the poisonous creatures in Ping Mountain. Even Partridge Whistle, after hearing Chen Yulou's description of the six-winged centipede, firmly believed that the rooster could fight it!

"Junior brother, bring the chicken!"

Partridge Whistle told the old foreigner to put down the basket on his back. When the lid was opened, everyone saw a magnificent rooster.

The rooster, with its colorful feathers and high crest, was captured, yet it remained majestic and imposing, its demeanor proud and untamed, gazing defiantly at the heavens.

It exudes an imposing aura without being angry, and a spirit shines through its crest, making it quite different from ordinary chickens and birds. Its crest is large and red, and when the chicken moves its head, the bright red comb trembles wildly, as if it is supporting a burning flame.

This rooster has five-colored feathers, and its beak and claws are particularly sharp. It has a faint golden sheen and is more than twice the size of an ordinary rooster.

"What a wonderful chicken! It's truly a divine creature!"

Chen Yulou had exceptional eyesight; he could tell at a glance that this rooster was no ordinary creature, but he didn't know exactly what made it so special.

"This chicken... doesn't it smell good...?"

Ning Chen stood to the side, secretly wiping away his drool. Tears involuntarily streamed from the corner of his mouth. If this were stewed, with some mushrooms added, and paired with a bottle of Erguotou (a type of Chinese liquor), what more could one ask for in life?

Shaking his head and suppressing his restless heart, Ning Chen knew that it wasn't time to kill the donkey after it had served its purpose... oh... no, it was time to kill the chicken!

The poisonous creatures in Bottle Mountain are still relying on it.

"Brother Partridge Whistle, how did you find this divine rooster?" After admiring the rooster, Chen Yulou asked with great curiosity.

Before Partridge Whistle could speak, Red Girl interrupted, "Chief, the Mountain Moving Clan and I disguised ourselves as Mo Shi and went to Golden Wind Village."

When the leader of the Mountain Moving Clan saw this colorful rooster, he knew it was extraordinary and immediately concluded that the poisonous miasma from the Broken Bottle Mountain tomb had landed here.

The man was butchering a chicken when we stopped him. He said it was none of our business and told us not to meddle…

"And then?" Luo Laowai leaned closer.

Red Girl clearly dislikes Luo Laowai and unconsciously moves closer to Partridge Whistle, suggesting their relationship has deepened during this trip…

I wonder if they'll end up together.

Partridge Whistle picked up the conversation: "I asked at the time, 'This chicken is so handsome and spirited. What ordinary poultry has such an extraordinary appearance? Why kill it for no reason? I am willing to pay money to redeem it.'"

However, the old man, considering himself a disciple of the Jin family's Lei Tan sect, simply said that we were unaware of these old customs: "A dog doesn't live eight years, a chicken doesn't live six!"

Chen Yulou understood immediately. These old calendars had been passed down for many years and had long been established as common knowledge. If you really encountered a stubborn old man, you could kill him and he still wouldn't give in.

However, this made Chen Yulou even more curious: what method did Partridge Whistle use to get his hands on the rooster?

Partridge Whistle said, "I discussed it with the old man. There is indeed an old rule that dogs don't live past eight years and chickens don't live past six. But anything can happen in this world, and we can't always rely on old rules. If I explain my reasoning, could we spare the chicken's life?"

The old man found it intriguing and agreed. Partridge Whistle then pulled the rooster over, pointed at its head, and asked, "Is it different from ordinary chickens?"

At the time, not only was the old man completely baffled, but even now, Chen Yulou, Luo Laowai, and the others, after carefully examining the rooster, cannot see anything unusual.

Ning Chen pointed out, "The rooster's eyelids are like human eyes, but the eyelids of ordinary chickens are the opposite of human eyes."

"Brother Ning has a good eye!"

Partridge Whistle praised it highly, and then said, "All the chickens and birds in the world have eyelids that are the opposite of human eyes."

Human eyelids grow from the top—the upper eyelid—and allow for blinking. Chicken eyelids, however, grow from the bottom. This chicken's eyelids are shaped like human eyes.

Chen Yulou, Luo Laowai, and the others had never paid attention to this matter before, but upon closer inspection, they found that the rooster's eyelids were indeed on top, just like human eyes.

Everyone asked, "Why is that?"

Partridge Whistle, unwilling to show off, spoke frankly: "Xiangxi has had the totem legend of the phoenix and the black bird since ancient times, and many place names are also related to the ancient phoenix. Thus, the county is named Nuqing County."

The raging sun is a sign of howling wind. Not only do chickens have eyelids, but they also have colorful feathers and golden claws. How could they be ordinary chickens?

Therefore, it is actually a rare and extraordinary breed of phoenix, the Nuqing Divine Chicken, which can only be found in Nuqing County, Xiangxi!

The Angry-Eyed Rooster's loud crow can shatter demonic energy and poisonous mirages, and even drive away ghosts and demons; it is truly the nemesis of poisonous creatures. While ordinary chickens and birds have eyelids under their eyes, the Angry-Eyed Rooster cannot be considered an ordinary chicken!

Even after Partridge Whistle finished speaking, everyone was still amazed. Old Luo listened with great seriousness and decided to give it a try. He immediately reached out and patted the Angry-Eyed Rooster on the head...

"Wait, no!"

Partridge Whistle suddenly noticed Luo Laowai's little actions and immediately stopped him. Don't be fooled by the fact that he was stroking the Angry Rooster. It was because the Angry Rooster was intelligent and knew that Partridge Whistle had saved its life.

But what exactly is Luo Laowai?

"Shameless bastard, you want to touch yourself and play with yourself?" The Angry-Eyed Chicken immediately pecked at Luo Laowai's hand fiercely...

"Holy shit!"

Luo Laowai's hand was bitten so hard that a piece of soft flesh was torn off, and blood was dripping from it. His dark face had almost turned bluish-purple.

"You son of a bitch! I'll kill you!"

Luo Laowai was incredibly arrogant. If he saw a chicken pecking at him, he would immediately pull out his gun and kill the Angry-Eyed Chicken. Chen Yulou was in a headache watching this, but he couldn't just stand by and do nothing.

After pulling Luo Laowai aside and comforting him, he finally gave up the idea of ​​killing the chicken. But who could he blame for this?

"Pah! Serves you right!"

Hong Guniang disliked Luo Laowai the most. The Angry Sun Chicken was something he and Partridge Whistle had gone to great lengths to find, practically wearing their lips out trying to persuade him.

If Luo Laowai really disregards the bigger picture and kills the Angry-Eyed Chicken, Hong Guniang will definitely make him pay with his life! After all, in her eyes, Luo Laowai is less than a chicken…

After the farce ended, everyone began to discuss stealing Bottle Mountain again, but Chen Yulou noticed that Ning Chen was still standing in front of the Angry Rooster with a silly grin on his face.

Seeing Ning Chen smacking his lips every now and then, everyone was speechless. Chen Yulou hesitated before speaking, "Brother Ning, please be gentle with your words..."

To be honest, Ning Chen had indeed considered stewing it, but now he seemed to have discovered something more interesting than eating it…
