Chapter 1961 (1.1960): The Iron Rooster Fights the Centipede
What exactly do the rooster and the snake mean?
While the onlookers upstairs were discussing the mystery, the answer to the rooster pattern on the Changlefang roundabout was revealed.
Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, a Hu woman dressed in a thin veil and adorned with golden bells on her feet gracefully approached from the side of the arena.
"Xiao Huaiya!" a regular customer called out her name immediately.
It was Xiao Huaiya, who came from the Western Regions, known as the "Sexy Persian Cat," famous in the capital for her "Rooster Bed." She was invincible in bed, but caused a conflict by mocking local johns. In the end, she was defeated by the Fifth Sister through a clever plan and brought back to Changlefang.
The question is, where is the "rooster bed" that made her famous?
The mystery was quickly solved. She made a hand seal and pointed.
There was a flash of golden light.
A majestic "mechanical chicken" has been born.
It turns out that the so-called "rooster bed" is actually a giant rooster-shaped mechanical rocking bed. On the rooster's back, Xiao Huaiya can perform her "Whirlwind Technique," causing her opponent to become dizzy and disoriented, foaming at the mouth and collapsing completely. And on the arena where the brothel competes for the championship, this "mechanical rooster" clearly possesses considerable fighting power.
With the mystery revealed at the Changlefang, all the onlookers turned their attention back to the Tiange.
"Look!" In the arcade buildings on three sides of Yonghua Village, which were separated by a door, the five sisters of the Rakshasa Palace, Dai Zushi, Ci Qianqian, Luo Shasha, Sun Biling and Liu Piaopiao, who were not listed in the Book of Life and Death but were still considered beauties in the "Beauty Portraits", lit up at their feet one after another.
"It's the Mirror Flower Water Moon Ruyi Gate!" Before Dai Zushi's exclamation could even finish, she had vanished from the spot. When she reappeared, she was already standing on the grand flower platform, the center of attention.
“Sect Master.” Dai Zushi took a deep breath and steadied herself.
"Don't panic." Elder Gu Xianniang, the Resurrection Elder, said calmly, "Do your best."
"Hmm." Dai Zu's gaze was firm, and she focused her energy in her dantian. From the murder of the Eastern Sect Leader's concubine to her resurrection after three days inhabited by a centipede, and then her successful refinement in the Dugu Sword Furnace, Dai Zu's life had been nothing short of extraordinary and unpredictable.
The five "Hundred-Clawed Asura Sisters" all possessed the beauty of courtesans, so it was reasonable for them to be chosen by the wheel of fortune through divine guidance. Moreover, since the rules were set by the Changlefang, the Huitiange should naturally abide by them. In modern terms, "the strong never complain about their circumstances."
Furthermore, in the eyes of Elder Gu Xianniang, the "Five Sisters of the Hundred-Clawed Asura" were not without fighting power. Apart from Dai Zushi, Ci Qianqian, and Luo Shasha, three well-known figures in their respective storylines, Sun Biling of the Unfixed Flying Ring and Liu Piaopiao of the Nine-Rope Flying Bell, known as the "Twin Flying Ones," were two of the six most powerful masters in the world in the original storyline: "One Evil, Twin Flying Ones, and Three Absolute Palms."
It is conceivable that one of the centipedes would have such a tremendous opportunity to be reborn as a living being, which is quite an extraordinary encounter.
The five "Hundred-Clawed Asura Sisters" stood side by side on the arena, each with a beautiful and otherworldly appearance. A faint Buddhist light seemed to emanate from them with every gesture and smile.
In short, none of them are easy to deal with.
"A miserly rooster versus a centipede!" Suddenly, a cry of surprise came from the spectators upstairs.
Yes, the centipede sisters' battle against "sexy Persian cat" Xiao Huaiya is none other than "Iron Rooster vs. Centipede".
“‘Even a centipede with a hundred legs does not fall down when dead.’” Su Wuniang, who seemed to be the owner of Changlefang, actually saw through the origins of the “Five Sisters of the Hundred-Clawed Asura Women”: “They were reborn into the world of the living and were refined by Buddhist treasures. Their fates are extraordinary.”
"It is indeed my family's five 'Hundred-Clawed Asura' sisters." Elder Gu Xianniang, not to be outdone, said, "'Every drink and every bite is preordained.' That's why we have this day, with the iron rooster fighting the centipede."
“Master Gu is absolutely right.” Su Wu Niang, the owner of Chang Le Fang, moved gracefully to the side of the arena.
Elder Gu Xianniang, who had returned to heaven, also turned around and walked into the gate of Yonghua Village.
The huge arena was given to the two competitors.
On stage, one against five might seem unfair at first glance. However, the majestic rooster, several meters tall and imposing, clearly had the upper hand. "In the world of painted murals, there are many extraordinary encounters," Xiao Huaiya said in a foreign Mandarin. "The brothels of Beibao are full of gods, monsters, and strange people. As the saying goes, 'It's never a burden to have many skills.' I, too, have been taught the art of Qimen Dunjia by a master. Sisters opposite, please be careful."
“Of course.” Luo Shasha, the mistress of the Rakshasa Palace, replied generously: “We sisters were originally born by clinging to a tree (referring to the centipede with its many legs and tiny branches). Later, we scattered and separated, like rootless duckweed. Fortunately, ‘Heaven has the virtue of cherishing life,’ which allowed us to attain enlightenment. We refined our original forms into our natal magic weapon, the ‘Hundred Claw Flying Sword.’ In addition, I am also skilled in using the ‘Deadly Flying Silk.’”
Upon seeing this, Dai Zushi introduced herself: "She is skilled in using the 'Flick of the Finger Needle' technique."
Ci Qianqian followed closely behind: "Make good use of 'Life-Taking Flying Sound'."
Sun Biling and Liu Piaopiao, the "Double Flying" sisters, responded in unison: "Unfixed Flying Ring (Nine-Rope Flying Bell)."
The onlookers upstairs, hearing the commotion, exclaimed in amazement: "They all have the character 'fly' in them! If that's the case, why not call them 'five flies' together?"
Once both sides were in position, a gong sounded.
The five Hundred-Clawed Asura sisters shouted in unison, "Out of your body!"
Each of them unleashed three flying swords, which shot out like lightning. They coalesced into a silver serpent and coiled towards Xiao Huaiya.
Having anticipated this, Xiao Huaiya pointed to her brow and muttered incantations. The mechanical rooster beside her suddenly flapped its wings.
The Hundred Claw Flying Sword clashed with the mechanical iron wings, sparks flying everywhere.
What a stingy miser!
Despite facing off against the Hundred Claw Flying Sword, it remained completely unharmed.
"Watch out!" Xiao Huaiya pointed, and the Iron Rooster nodded swiftly. What appeared to be a rooster pecking at food was actually a flash of cold light.
A steel beak pierced through the air, aiming straight for the chest!
As the five Asura sisters were about to fly away to avoid it, their feet suddenly sank, and a ghostly chicken claw appeared out of thin air, locking their legs in place.
In the critical moment, the Hundred Claw Flying Swords formed an array in front of him, blocking the series of pecking attacks.
The Hundred-Claw Flying Sword was a natal magic weapon forged from the hundred legs of a thousand-year-old centipede spirit, far surpassing ordinary ironware. However, the Iron Rooster's steel beak was no less formidable. Sparks flew everywhere. Each person wielded three Hundred-Claw Flying Swords, splitting into three groups. One group circled around the body, deflecting the continuous pecking attacks. Another group circled around the feet, slashing away at the chaotic blades of the Netherworld Rooster's claws. One sword attacked Xiao Huaiya from afar, interrupting her incantation.
"Mechanical arts are also a type of puppetry." One of the viewers upstairs said eloquently, "Just like the 'Five Ghosts Moving Mountains,' it requires incantations to be controlled. If it is not interrupted, it should be driven away with the 'Circle Light Technique.' But I wonder what the Iron Rooster's central mechanism is."
"What's different about the central hub?" another reader asked.
“If the central element is a spirit stone, the ‘Circle Light Technique’ requires external objects. Such as a circle light on paper, a circle light in the palm, a circle light on the wall, and so on,” the man replied.
"If the central hub is not for spirit stones, then what should be done?" This matter is of utmost importance, so naturally, we must get to the bottom of it.
"Even without spirit stones, (mechanical beasts) possess sentience. Thus, the 'Circle Light Technique' requires no external power; one only needs to draw a circle in one's mind, and the beast will move at will."
"The 'circle light technique' also has an inner and outer aspect."
"Of course."
Just as the "Guardian Warrior" is driven by the Heavenly Eye and its spiritual consciousness originates from the multitasking of the Red Flower, it can be regarded as a "mechanical substitute." The "Chastity Armor," however, is an object in which the female ghost resides, equivalent to a "mechanical shell" for resurrection.
The same applies to this iron rooster. If Xiao Huaiya is multitasking and using incantations to control it, it can only be a "mechanical substitute." If the iron rooster has developed its own consciousness, like a female ghost possessing it, it can be regarded as a "mechanical shell."
