Witnessing the change of power in an imperial parliamentary country, Fang Wei was deeply shocked. The person who secretly took over as the next successor of the Banyue Empire was the cousin of Bai Qi, the royal family of the Deep Blue Dynasty, who disappeared in the Deep Blue royal family.
No matter how powerful the human civilization is, if it wants to maintain its bloodline inheritance, it must cast its net everywhere. As Fang Wei listened to Bai Seqi's casual secret history of the Deep Blue Royal Family, his bad feeling deepened. It¡¯s just that Fang Wei is busy adjusting his body so that he can use the blood of the top planet monster given by Bai Seqi. It only has the blood volume of a test tube, but it contains terrifying energy.
Fang Wei didn¡¯t want to die, so he had to operate it more carefully. The first form of the Star Body Refining Technique was originally used by Wu Zun to reconcile the energy-formed body. If Fang Wei wanted to use it at the innate level, he would have to spend more resources. After some preparations, Fang Wei decided that the time to practice the first form of the Star Body Refining Technique would be at night, and he went to tell Bai Seqi specifically.
When practicing the first form of the Star Body Refining Technique, you really cannot be interrupted, as it will kill someone! The Star Body Refining Technique is not like the first form of the Secret Code of Souls. It is no big deal if it is interrupted. The Star Body Refining Technique is so domineering that either Fang Wei refines the blood of those planet monsters or he is killed alive. .
Bai Seqi blinked her clear eyes, smiled slightly, and was elegant and quiet. She could see that Fang Wei's spirit was as condensed as a dragon, and his mental power was surging. However, Bai Seqi didn't know why Fang Wei came to ask for leave, so she whispered Said: "Well, you just have to leave a story before leaving, otherwise I won't let you go."
Fang Wei was well prepared. He knew that Bai Seqi's so-called wanting to hear a story was just an excuse. But I don¡¯t understand what Bai Seqi wants to do. She just wants to take advantage and not take advantage of the bastard: ¡°Once upon a time, there were two brothers, one poor and one rich. The rich one was a goldsmith, with evil intentions; the poor one made a living by making brooms. Make a living, be honest, honest, and respected by others.¡±
"He has two sons, who are twins. They can't tell each other apart. They are like two drops of water, exactly the same. They often go to the rich house and always find something to eat."
"Once, the poor man went to the forest to chop wood and happened to see a bird, which was more beautiful than any other bird he had ever seen. He picked up a pebble and threw it at the bird. The pebble hit the bird. . But the little bird struggled and flew away, leaving only one feather. He picked up the feather and showed it to his brother."
"The elder brother said: It is pure gold! So he gave the younger brother a lot of money to buy the golden feathers. The next day, the poor younger brother climbed to a birch tree and wanted to cut two branches. He saw the bird from the tree the day before yesterday. He was startled and flew away. He searched for a while and found a bird's nest with a golden egg in it. He took the egg to his brother to see."
"My brother said: It's pure gold! I gave my brother some money to buy the golden egg. I really want that golden bird! My brother finally said. The poor brother came to the forest for the third time, and the golden bird was just there. He stopped on a tree. He picked up a stone and hit the golden bird. He took the golden bird back to his brother, who gave him a lot of gold and silver."
"Now I can live a peaceful life. The poor brother thought with satisfaction as he walked home. The goldsmith's brother was shrewd and cunning. He knew very well what kind of treasure this bird was, and he said to his wife: Go Roast the bird for me. Be careful not to drop anything. I want to eat it alone."
"It turns out that this bird is extraordinary. If anyone eats its heart and liver, a piece of gold will appear under his pillow every day. After the woman put in the seasonings, she put the bird on a spit and roasted it. She left the kitchen for something, and it happened that The twins came running in. They turned the bird that was being roasted. The heart and liver fell out."
"One child said: "Let's eat these two small pieces. I'm so hungry. No one will notice such a small thing." The woman walked into the kitchen and saw the two brothers chewing something, so she asked: "Do you want to eat it?" What? A little bit of something that fell off a bird. They told her. It must be the heart and liver."
"The woman was frightened and wanted to prevent her husband from getting angry when he discovered that something was missing. She immediately killed a young rooster, took out the heart and liver and placed them next to the bird. When they were roasted, the woman brought the bird to her husband. The goldsmith A man ate the bird clean. When he woke up the next morning, he felt under his pillow, thinking he would find gold."
"But apart from the usual ones, there was no extra piece at all. The two children had no idea that they were lucky. When they got up the next day, something rolled to the ground with a clanking sound. When they picked it up, they found that It was two gold coins! They handed the money to their father, and his father asked in surprise: How could such a thing happen?"
"It was like this for the next few days, so the poor brother told his elder brother about this strange thing. The elder brother understood what was going on and knew that they must have eaten the heart and liver of the golden bird, so he was filled with jealousy. He just wanted revenge. He said to his brother: Your child has hooked up with the devil."
"Don't want that gold, don't want any moreLet them live in your house because the devil has taken control of them or you will be dead. Out of fear of the devil, even though he couldn't bear it, the father took the twin brothers to the forest and left them with a heavy heart. "
"The two brothers were looking for the way home in the forest, but they couldn't find it. Instead, they got further away from home. Finally they met a hunter, whose children are you? He asked. We are poor Zha. The children of the broom-keeper. They answered, and told the hunter how they found a piece of gold every day under their pillow, and how their father did not want them to live in the house.¡±
"It doesn't matter, the hunter said, as long as you stay honest and don't do idleness, I don't think it's a big deal. The kind-hearted hunter likes children, but he has no children, so he took the two brothers back to his home and said: I'm here to give you Be a father and raise you up."
"The two brothers learned to hunt from the hunters, and the gold they woke up every morning was kept by the hunters for their future use. They gradually grew up. One day, their adoptive father took them to the forest and said to them : If you succeed in your trial hunting today, you will no longer be apprentices, and I will let you become full-fledged hunters."
"They hid with their adoptive father and waited for a long time, but no prey appeared. At this time, the hunter saw a group of triangular wild geese flying in the sky, and said to one of them: Shoot one from each corner. He The shot was successful, so the trial hunting was completed. Soon, another group of wild geese flew by in a figure 2, so the hunter asked another one to shoot one from each corner."
"The second one also successfully passed the trial hunting. Now, I announce. The adoptive father said to them that you have ended the apprenticeship stage and you are skilled hunters. After saying that, the two brothers came to the forest together and talked to each other. Discussing what to do in the future. In the evening, when they sat down to prepare for dinner, they said to their adoptive father: You must promise us one thing before we will eat."
"What's the matter? We have finished our apprenticeship now. In order to prove our worth to the world. So please allow us to leave here and travel. The old hunter said happily: You already speak like a brave hunter. You guys My wish is my hope that everything will go well for you. After saying that, the three of us happily ate and drank together."
"When the day was chosen to set off, the adoptive father gave each of the two brothers a golden shotgun and a hunting dog. He also took out the gold he had accumulated over the years and asked them to take as much as they wanted. He gave them a ride, and when they parted, he Give each of them a shiny knife and say: If you two want to separate, find a tree where you separated and stick this knife in it."
"When one of you returns here, you can see how the other is doing. If he is dead, the blade in the direction he walked will be rusty. If he is still alive, it will still be bright. The brothers continue to move towards They walked forward and entered a large forest that could not be walked out in one day. So they rested there all night and took out the food from the ration bags to eat."
"But they still didn't go out the next day, and there was nothing to eat. So one of them said: We have to hunt something, otherwise we will starve. He picked up his gun and looked around, and saw an old hare He ran toward them and aimed his gun at it, but the old rabbit shouted: Dear hunter, let me go, and I will send you two little ones away.¡±
"In the blink of an eye, it jumped into the bushes and came out carrying two little rabbits. When the brothers saw that the two little rabbits were having fun and were so beautiful and cute, they couldn't bear to kill them. They adopted the rabbits , the two little rabbits ran behind them."
"Soon, they saw a fox and were about to shoot it when they heard the fox shout: Dear hunter, let me go and give you two little guys. He also brought two little foxes. But the hunters still couldn't bear to kill him. He fell off, so he stayed with the little rabbit and followed him. After a while, a wolf came out of the bushes. "
"The hunter was about to shoot again, but he shouted: Dear hunter, let me go, I will send you two little guys. The hunter added the two little wolves to the ranks of other animals and followed them. Then came a bear , it also wanted to live longer, so it shouted: Dear hunter, let me go, and I will give you two little guys."
"Two cubs joined them again, making a total of eight animals. Who came next? It was a lion with a trembling mane! The hunter took aim at the lion without fear, and just as he was about to shoot, the lion said: Dear The hunter will let me go and I will give you two little ones as a gift."
"The lion brought his cubs, and now the hunters had two lions, two bears, two wolves, two foxes and two rabbits following them to serve them. But they were getting hungrier and hungrier, so Say to the fox: Listen: you two cunning little guys, find us something to eat.¡±
"There is a village not far ahead. We caught a lot of chickens and ducks there. I'll show you the way."But they came to the village, bought some food for themselves and the beasts, and then set off on the road again. Foxes are very familiar with the roads here and know where the feeding grounds are, so they can lead the way for hunters. "
"After walking for a while, they felt that they had to separate, so they said: The forest has come to an end, and we have to go our separate ways. They first divided the animals into two, and each took a lion, a bear, a wolf, a fox and a rabbit, and then said goodbye to each other, vowing to always love each other as brothers."
"Finally, they stuck the knife given to them by their adoptive father into a tree and left one after another. The younger brother took the animals to a city where black gauze was hung everywhere. He walked into a house He went to a hotel and asked the owner if he could stay with the animals. The owner gave him a barn for the animals to live in. There was a hole in the wall, and the rabbit crawled out to find a vegetable to eat."
"The fox went out and caught a hen. After gobbling it up, he went to catch the rooster and eat it. But the wolf, bear and lion were too big to get out of the hole. The shopkeeper then asked someone to lead them to a field. On the grass. There happened to be a dead cow there, so they had a good meal."
"After the hunter settled the animals, he asked the shopkeeper why the city was covered with black veils. The owner said: The king's only daughter will die tomorrow. Is she dying of illness? The hunter asked again. No. The owner said that she is healthy and lively, but not very sick. You can't die! How could this happen? There is an evil dragon living on the mountain outside the city."
"It eats a young and beautiful girl every year, otherwise it will turn the whole city into ruins. Now all the girls in the city have been given to it, except for the king's only daughter. She cannot escape, and has to be Leave it to the evil dragon. The time is set for tomorrow. The hunter asked again: Why not get rid of the evil dragon?"
"Oh, said the master, how many knights have lost their lives for this! The king promised that as long as someone kills the dragon, he can marry his daughter and rule the country after a hundred years. The hunter said nothing more. Chapter The next morning he took the animals and went to the mountain where the dragon lived."
"There is a church on the top of the mountain. There are three wine cups filled with wine on the altar. On them are engraved: Whoever drinks the wine in the cup will become the most powerful person in the world and can wield the stone buried in the mountain. The sword under the threshold. Instead of drinking, the hunter went to find the sword buried in the ground. But he could not pull it out."
"So he walked up to the altar and drank all the wine. This time he was not only able to lift the sword, but he could also swing it with ease. The time came to sacrifice the maiden. The king, the ceremonial officer and the nobles of the court accompanied the princess .The princess saw the hunter standing on the mountain where the evil dragon lived from a distance, and thought that the evil dragon was waiting for her, so she refused to go up the mountain."
"But later, she thought that the whole city might be destroyed by the evil dragon. She had to risk her life and move forward. The king and the courtiers left with a heavy heart. Only the ceremonial officer was ordered to stay and observe from a distance. When the princess arrived At the top of the mountain, the young hunter tried his best to comfort her and said he would rescue her."
"He led her into the church. He asked her to wait there, and then locked the door of the church. After a while, the ferocious seven-headed dragon roared to the top of the mountain. When he saw the hunter, he was startled at first and said: Come here What to do? Duel with you. The hunter said. Many warriors have already left their lives here, and you will die soon."
"As he spoke, fire spewed out from his seven mouths. The flames burned the dry grass. The hunter was almost suffocated by the heat and smoke, but his animals arrived in time and put out the fire. The dragon then charged at the hunter. He rushed forward, but the sword in his hand whizzed in the air, and three of the dragon's seven heads were chopped off."
"The dragon was furious. It rose into the air, spit out flames at the hunter, and then dived towards him. The hunter drew his sword again and fought hard, cutting off three more dragon heads. The dragon was already vulnerable and fell from the air. Come down. But it tried to attack the hunter, and finally the hunter cut off its tail with his last strength. The hunter called his animals and let them tear the dragon into pieces."
"The battle was over. The hunter opened the church and found that the princess had fainted on the ground due to fear and worry. He picked up the princess and walked out of the church. The girl woke up and opened her eyes. The hunter pointed out the pieces of the dragon to her and told her that she Free. The princess said excitedly: "Then you are my dearest husband now, because my father has already betrothed me to the person who kills the dragon."
"As she said this, she took off her coral necklace and gave it to the animals as rewards. The lion received the gold buckle of the necklace. Then, the princess gave the handkerchief embroidered with her name to the hunter, and he cut out the tongue of the seven-headed dragon. Wrapped carefully in a handkerchief.¡±
"After doing this, the hunter, who had been roasted by the fire and had fought a long battle, felt exhausted. He said to the princess: We are all tired. Let's take a short sleep. The girl said yes. So the hunter ordered the lion to keep watch and not let No one disturbed him, and he fell asleep after saying that. The lion was also exhausted by the fight, and he said to the bear: Lie down next to me.Come on, I have to sleep for a while. "
"Wake me up if anyone comes. The bear lay down next to the lion, but he also felt sleepy, so he said to the wolf: Lie down next to me, I have to sleep for a while. Wake me up if anyone comes. Wolf He lay down next to the bear, but he also felt sleepy, so he said to the fox: "Lie down next to me, I have to sleep for a while."
"Wake me up if someone comes. The fox lay down next to the wolf, but he also felt sleepy, so he said to the rabbit: Lie down next to me, I have to sleep for a while. Wake me up if someone comes. Rabbit Lying next to the fox, there was no one to ask him to keep watch, but he fell into a deep sleep. The princess, the hunter, and the rabbit all fell into a deep sleep."
"Besides, the ceremonial officer who was left to observe did not see the evil dragon flying away with the girl. And the mountain became very calm, so he mustered up the courage to come to the mountain. He saw the evil dragon chopped into pieces and the sleeping dragon The princess, the hunter and the animals, the evil guy suddenly had evil thoughts."
"He picked up his sharp sword, chopped off the hunter's head, and then dragged the princess down the mountain. The princess was frightened and woke up, and the etiquette officer said to her: You are in my hands now! You must say that I was the one who killed him. The dragon is dead. I cannot say that, replied the princess. It was the hunter and his animals who defeated the dragon."
"However, under his coercion and intimidation, the princess had no choice but to agree. They came to the king and saw that their child was back alive. He was not bitten to death by the dragon. The king simply did not know how to express his joy. Etiquette The official said to the king: I killed the evil dragon and saved the princess and the entire country."
"Now please betroth your daughter to me as promised. The king asked his daughter: Is what he said true? Yes. The princess replied. It is true. But I want to hold the wedding after one year and one day. Because she I hope to get news about our dear hunter by then. In the meantime, those animals are still sleeping soundly next to their murdered owners.¡±
"A large wild bee flew up to the rabbit's nose, but the rabbit drove it away with its paws and continued to sleep. The wasp flew for the second time, but the rabbit drove it away and continued to sleep. The third time, the wasp stung It woke it up in pain. As soon as the rabbit woke up, it woke up the fox, the fox woke up the wolf, the wolf woke up the bear, and the bear woke up the lion."
"The lion woke up and lost sight of the girl. His master was also dead and roared: Who did it? Bear, why didn't you wake me up?! The bear asked the wolf: Why didn't you wake me up?! The wolf asked the fox again: Why didn¡¯t you wake me up?! The fox asked the rabbit: Why didn¡¯t you wake me up?!¡±
"The poor rabbit didn't know what to do, so all the resentment came towards it. They were about to pounce on the rabbit, and the rabbit begged for mercy and said: Don't kill me. I can resurrect the owner. I know there is a grass root on a mountain. As long as Putting it on a person's mouth can cure his illness or injury. But it takes two hundred hours to reach that mountain."
"But the lion said: Give you twenty-four hours, and you must come back here with the roots. So the rabbit ran away and came back with the grass roots within the specified time. The lion put the hunter's head back together, and the rabbit put the grass roots together. Enter the hunter's mouth. The hunter's limbs immediately closed and he breathed. He came to life again."
"He opened his eyes and found that the girl was gone, so he thought: She must not want to be with me and left quietly while I was sleeping. The lion put the hunter's head back in a hurry, but the hunter only thought about it. The princess paid no attention at all. At noon, when he wanted to have something to eat, he noticed that his head was turned this way, so he asked the animals what had happened to him while he was sleeping."
"The lions told how they fell asleep because they were too tired, and when they woke up they found that their master's head had been cut off and died; how the rabbit ran to find the grass root that brought the dead back to life; how it put on its master's head in a hurry, etc. He told the hunter and expressed his willingness to change. Then he took off the hunter's head, turned it around, and restored him to his original shape with the roots of a rabbit."
"The hunter was very sad. He wandered around with the animals and let them perform shows for passers-by. On the first anniversary of his victory over the dragon, he happened to come to the city where he had saved the king's daughter. This time all the animals were in trouble. The city was covered with festive red cloth. He asked the shopkeeper: What does this mean?"
"Last year, there were black cloths hanging here. What does the red cloth hanging here mean today? The host replied: On this day last year, the king's daughter was forced to sacrifice to the evil dragon. The ceremonial officer fought with it and finally killed the evil dragon. So. So Tomorrow he and the princess will hold their wedding, which is why the whole city hangs black to show mourning and red to show joy."
"The next day, the wedding ceremony was about to be held. The hunter said to the shopkeeper at noon: Do you believe that you and I can eat the bread from the king's table here today? The master said he didn't believe it. I gave him a hundred gold coins and You bet it's impossible."
"The hunter accepted the bet, placed a bag of gold coins of the same amount next to him, and said to the rabbit: My dear long??Expert, go get me some of the king's bread. Rabbits are the smallest animals, so they can't give orders and have to run by themselves. Alas, if I leave alone like this, the butcher's dog will chase me and bite me. "
"As expected, the dogs chased it and tried to catch it and eat it. But the rabbit jumped and jumped with such agility as you have never seen. It hid in the guard's box, and the guard had no idea. Discovered. The dogs came running over barking, but the guards didn¡¯t understand them at all, so they beat and chased them with the butts of their rifles until they howled and ran away.¡±
"As soon as the rabbit saw that there was no one on the road, he immediately ran towards the palace, went straight to the princess, and hid under her chair. He scratched the princess's feet with his paws. The princess thought it was her dog and said: "Can you please go away?" The rabbit scratched her feet again, and the princess thought it was her dog. Then he said, "Will you please go away?"
"The rabbit didn't want to be driven away just like that, so she caught her for the third time. The princess looked under the chair and recognized the rabbit's collar. She carried the rabbit to her room and asked: Dear rabbit, what do you want? ? The rabbit said: My master, the hunter who killed the dragon, is in the city, and he wants me to come and take back a piece of bread that the king eats.
"The princess was very happy. She called the baker and asked him to bring him a loaf of bread like the one the king ate. The baker had to help me deliver the bread so that the dogs would not catch up with me," said the rabbit. So the baker After carrying the rabbit and the bread to the door of the inn, the rabbit stood up, picked up the bread with his front paws and handed it to his owner."
"The hunter said to the shopkeeper: Then, these one hundred gold coins are mine. The shopkeeper was very surprised, and the hunter went on to say: Now that I have bread, I can also get the barbecue that the king eats. The owner said: I think so. Seeing things. But he refused to place a bet. The hunter said to the fox: Little fox, go and bring me some roast meat that the king eats."
"The red fox is familiar with the paths here. It drilled holes and climbed over walls. Soon it came under the princess's chair and scratched her feet. The princess looked down and recognized the collar around its neck, so she took it with her. Go to her room and ask: My dear fox, what do you want? My master, the hunter who slew the dragon, is in the city. He wants me to come and bring back some of the kind of roasted meat that kings eat."
"The princess called the cook and ordered him to roast a hoof like the kind that kings eat, and deliver it to the door of the inn for the fox. The fox took the meat, drove away the flies with his tail, and gave it to the owner. You see, we are now We already have bread and meat, and we have to have some vegetables like the king eats.¡±
"He summoned the wolf and said to it: My dear wolf, go get me some of the vegetables that the king eats. The wolf fearlessly went straight to the princess and pulled her skirt down from behind, making the princess She had to turn around to see what was going on. She recognized the collar around the wolf's neck, so she took it into her room and asked: Dear wolf, what do you want?"
"The wolf replied: My master, the hunter who killed the dragon, is in the city, and he wants me to bring back some of the vegetables that the king eats. The princess called the cook and asked him to prepare a plate of vegetables that the king eats. , and delivered it to the door of the hotel for the wolf. The wolf took the vegetables and brought them to the owner. The owner said, look, we now have bread, meat and vegetables."
"But it would be nice to have some desserts like kings eat. He called the bear and said to it: My dear bear, you love sweet things the most. Go get me some desserts like kings eat. The bear is all the way He trotted to the palace, and everyone he saw gave way to him, but the palace guards held up their guns to prevent him from entering."
"The bear stood up, pointed his front paws at the guard's face, and then walked straight behind the princess and called softly. The princess looked behind her, recognized the bear, took it to her room, and asked: Dear Bear, what do you want? The bear answered: My master, the hunter who killed the dragon, is in the city, and he wants me to come and bring back some sweets for the king."
"The princess summoned the pastry chef and asked him to bake a dessert like the king eats and deliver it to the door of the hotel for the bear. The bear took the dessert, licked the candied fruit that rolled down and ate it, then stood up straight and brought the pastry to Master. The master said: You see, we have bread, meat, vegetables and sweets now, but I also want to drink some wine like the king drinks."
"He called the lion to him and said: My dear lion, you also like to drink. Go and get me some of the wine that the king drinks. The lion strode majestically, and everyone who saw it could run away. Far away. When it came to the palace gate, the guards tried to stop it, but it roared and scared them all away."
"The lion came to the palace and knocked on the door with his tail. The princess came to open the door and was startled by the lion. But she recognized the clasp of her gold necklace hanging around his neck, so she took him to her room and asked :Dear Lion, what do you want? He replied: My master, the hunter who slew the dragon, is in the city, and he wants me to come and bring back some of the wine that the king drinks."
"Princess SummonsThe attendant who came to the palace to serve wine asked him to bring the kind of wine that the king drank to the lion. But the lion said: I will follow him to avoid taking the wrong one. So he followed the wine waiter to the cellar. at first. The bartender gave it some ordinary wine that servants drank, and it said: "Wait a minute, I have to taste this wine first." He poured out half the glass and drank it in one gulp. There was something wrong with the wine. "
"It said. The butler rolled his eyes at him, walked to another barrel of wine, and prepared to use the wine drank by the etiquette officer to deal with the lion. The lion said again: "Wait a minute. I have to taste it first." Then he poured out half a glass to drink. Okay, this wine is a little better, but it¡¯s not the kind that the king drinks, it said. The bartender said angrily: What does a stupid animal like you know about wine tasting?
"The lion knocked the cupbearer to the ground with one palm. When he got up again, he did not dare to say a word and obediently led the lion to a small wine cellar. The wine that the king drank was stored there, and no one else drank it. But the lion still poured out a glass first, swallowed it in one gulp, and said: This is the real thing. He asked the bartender to pour six bottles."
"When we got out of the cellar, the lion was already drunk and staggering around, so the bartender had to carry the basket to the door of the hotel for him. The lion took the basket, bit the handle, and handed the wine to the owner. The hunter said: You see , now I not only have bread, meat, vegetables, and sweets. I also have wine, and it¡¯s time for me to dine with the animals.¡±
"So he distributed the food and wine to the animals, and everyone ate very happily, and it can be seen that the princess still loved the hunter. After dinner, the hunter said: I have eaten and drank like a king, and now I want to Go to the palace and marry the king¡¯s daughter. The shop owner said in disbelief: How is this possible?¡±
"She is engaged, and the wedding will be held today. The hunter took out the handkerchief that the princess gave him on Dragon Mountain, which contained the seven tongues of the dragon, and said: What I have in my hand will help me. The shopkeeper looked at the handkerchief and said : I believe everything else you say, but I don¡¯t believe this."
"I bet you my house and yard. You can't do it. The hunter took out a thousand gold coins and put them on the table and said: I'll bet you these. Besides, the king saw those beasts coming. Often, just ask your daughter: What do those wild beasts that come in and out of the palace come to you for?"
"The princess replied: I don't need to say anything. It will be clear if someone brings their owners. So the king sent a servant to the inn to invite the stranger. Just in time, the hunter put the bet on the innkeeper's table and said: You Look, Mr. Innkeeper, the king has sent a servant to invite me, but I can¡¯t go like this.¡±
"He turned to his servant and said: Please tell His Majesty the King to send someone to send palace clothes and servants to serve me, and then send a six-horse carriage to take me into the palace. When the king heard this request, he asked his daughter: What should I do? ?The princess replied: Just send someone to fetch him as he said. So the king sent someone to send palace clothes, a carriage and servants to wait on him."
"As soon as the hunter saw it, he said to the shopkeeper: Look, I will be picked up according to my request. After saying that, he changed into his court clothes, took the seven dragon tongues wrapped in the silk scarf, and got on the carriage to see the king. Went. When the king saw him, he first asked his daughter: What etiquette should I use to receive him? The princess said: Go over and greet him."
"The king walked over and led the hunter in, followed closely by the animals. The king placed a seat for the hunter beside himself and near the princess. The groom's ceremonial officer sat opposite him, but he did not recognize the hunter at all."
"At this time, the seven dragon heads were brought out and displayed. The king said: These seven heads were cut off from the evil dragon by the ceremonial officer. Today I will betroth my daughter to him as his wife. The hunter stood up, opened the dragon's mouth and asked "Where is the dragon's tongue?" The etiquette officer panicked and didn't know how to answer. He said in a hurry: "The dragon has no tongue."
"The hunter said: Of course those who lie have no tongues, and the dragon's tongue is the proof of the winner. He opened the handkerchief, and there were indeed seven tongues in it. He put each tongue into the dragon's mouth one by one, and closed it just right. Then, he Shake out the handkerchief with the princess's name embroidered on it and show it to her, and ask her to whom she gave it."
