The Last Gentleman

Chapter 95: Chicken Coop (seventh update)

Chapter 95 Chicken Coop (seventh update)

"Jin seems to be very sensitive to this kind of sudden veto... I did have the urge to kill me just now. I have to be careful in the future to minimize the chance of vetoing her." 』

 In fact, Yi Chen can completely understand Jin's sudden change of mood.

 Most of those children who were abandoned by their parents in orphanages, especially those who were abandoned after they became wise, and even those who were abused in their original families, had certain "psychological forbidden areas".

 Once they touch the restricted area, their temperament will change drastically, and they may even behave recklessly.

A boy who used to play well with Yi Chen was asked by other friends one day, "Can you stop being like a dog?" ’

At that time, he directly threw the speaker to the ground, bit off the other person's nose and ears alive, and even almost tore off the entire face.

It was later learned that when the boy was a child, he was often locked in a kennel by his parents and raised like a dog. If he was disobedient, he would be hung up and whipped.

 As for gold, the situation may be even worse.

Yichen will definitely pay more attention to this point and try not to touch Jin's "forbidden zone".

 …

 Now is the time for interrogation,

For this chicken that suddenly appears, is fast and can even talk, it is necessary to pry out some important information from its mouth.

Plants restrain the chicken's body to prevent escape.

Yi Chen held the slightly fat body with both hands and quickly detected the diseased substances between the chicken's bodies.

 Lesions mainly affect the brain area.

 The brain of this black chicken is no longer limited to the cranial cavity, but continues to proliferate along the chicken's neck, making the brain fill half of the body cavity...The size of the brain is equivalent to that of the human brain.

This may explain why black chickens can speak and think.

 In addition to the brain, the muscles of the chicken legs are very developed, and even muscle structures similar to flight feathers can be seen on them.

If it weren’t for people like Jin, whose [coordination] reached the limit, ordinary gentlemen would really not be able to catch up with it.

 Except for the brains and drumsticks, the rest are normal and non-threatening.

This is also the first time Yi Chen has come into contact with a diseased animal, and it was unexpectedly safe.

“Hey! Tell me more information quickly, otherwise my friends will really kill you.”

The black chicken was so frightened that his combs collapsed, his whole body was trembling, and he tried his best to squeeze out human words:

“My mother-in-law knows that she wants to talk to you. You can talk about the forest, the village, and the church~giggle!”

 “What mother-in-law? Where is she?”

"I will take you there... My mother-in-law is not under the control of the church. She lives alone in a very private place outside the village~ Giggles!"

 “Has she found other humans before?”

“No, my mother-in-law is very accurate in judging people. Those humans before could not have survived, but you are different! You easily killed those...freaks at the entrance of the village! Geez!”

Yi Chen did not continue to ask questions, but turned to Jin who was waiting aside.

“Jin, let this chicken take us there...even if it’s a trap, it should be what you want, right?”

Jin Yi came over in an instant and gently touched the comb structure, which scared the black chicken to the point where its feathers almost exploded.

"Okay! Take us to your chicken coop quickly...don't lie to us."

that's all,

 Plant roots wrap around the chicken's neck like a pet, allowing it to lead the way.

Yi Chen also noticed that the direction the chicken led the way was completely opposite to the direction where the sense of peeping came from before, which meant that someone else might have been peeping at the battle before.

As we walked towards the 'grandma's' residence, some other chickens began to appear one after another in the surrounding woods. Some chickens could even fly short distances, and even flapped their wings and landed among the very secret branches.

Yichen regards these chickens as the eyesight of her ‘mother-in-law’.

If Hei Ji’s words are true, this mother-in-law may prefer that ‘Patient Zero’ not be controlled and occupy an area in the forest alone.

 She lives apart from the villagers, silently observing the changes in the forest and the village... Of course, her relationship with the church cannot be completely ruled out.

 The specific situation can only be determined after meeting.

soon,

The black chicken led the two people to the so-called "mother-in-law's residence"

 A huge tree that is extremely fat, covered with abscesses and constantly leaking sap. The size of this tree is at least three times larger than that of a regular tree.

 “Mother-in-law, she lives down here, come with me.”

The black chicken flapped its wings and jumped toward a crack that was about half a meter long and squirming between the tree trunks. It felt like it wanted to **** in foreign objects into it.

Yi Chen did not hesitate, took a step forward, and put his palms against the tree trunk to make the gap between the trees wider.

 Wrapped in a coat, squeezed into the tree sap and mucus.

There is actually a "slide" inside the tree trunk, which feels somewhere between flesh and plants, transporting Yi Chen to a mysterious underground area.

 After about fifty meters of spiral descent, he finally fell into a pile of haystacks.

 Soon, a large number of yellow chicks came around, as if to welcome Yi Chen, a foreign guest.

Using Little Grape's vision to quickly scan the surrounding environment,

This is a large-scale underground space, hemispherical in shape, and the walls are covered with chicken feathers of different colors, which seems to function as a shield from the outside world.

 Overall, this area can be roughly divided into three areas:

  【Incubation Area】

Iron chicken coops of different colors are stacked on top of each other and arranged on the side wall. A large number of eggs are hatched in them. The chicks surrounding Yi Chen come from here.

  【Nutritional Zone】

 The living roots extending from the giant tree are each embedded in the body of a rather large broiler chicken, absorbing their nutrients. Once it is sucked dry, the broiler at the back will quickly top it.

Through this kind of self-sacrifice, we provide nutrition to the giant tree, support this underground space, and ensure the safety of the chickens.

At the same time, the essence sap secreted by the giant tree will also be collected in the nutrient tank. The hatched chicks can grow quickly by eating this sap and grow up in a short period of time.

If you can grow into a chicken that can talk, walk like flying, and have keen vision, you will be able to gain [freedom] and do errands for your mother-in-law outside.

 If it grows into an ordinary chicken with no use, it will be labeled as a "broiler chicken" and join the queue.

  【Home Area】

 Located on the other side of the underground area.

 Stoves, dining tables, fireplaces, beds and other basic household items are all available.

An old woman with a slightly plump body, wearing a colorful blouse, with a few strands of gray in her short dark wavy hair, was sitting on a wooden chair.

 The feet on the ground are not wearing shoes...or in other words, they cannot wear shoes.

 The structure of her foot soles is still normal, but her toes have undergone abnormal changes. They are longer and covered with dark wrinkles, and they also have sharp and curved claws.

She was holding a chicken with golden outer feathers in her arms. Its body was round and spherical, and she was stroking it gently.

They also had their backs turned and couldn't see clearly. This reminded Yi Chen of his previous experience in the attic.

Just when Yi Chen wanted to take the initiative to say hello,

 ‘Mother-in-law’ turned around, except for the red flesh-like hanging thing dragging on her chin, her facial features were the same as those of humans, and she also had a kind smile.

“Welcome to my chicken coop, just call me ‘Chicken Granny’.

 You are indeed different, you can actually catch [Xiao Pei], it is the fastest chicken here. "

Upon hearing this, Yi Chen immediately released the restraints of the vines and let Xiaopei, the trembling black chicken, return to Granny Chicken.
