Seeing that Shi Luo and Su Fei were talking and laughing, the other villagers also seemed to lift their guards against Su Fei and the three outsiders.

Hu Mang and Xie Yufei are extremely beautiful young ladies. Some elderly uncles and aunts were better, but those young lads couldn't help but secretly look at Xie Yufei and Hu Mang, and whenever the two of them raised their heads or turned their eyes to themselves, they were busy putting their faces away, and a few times they even made a few big red faces.

The children in the village also liked these two beautiful young ladies very much, Xie Yufei took out the candy on Hu Mang's body and began to distribute it to the children around him, and immediately won a lot of laughter. The three of them quickly eliminated the initial estrangement with the villagers.

It's just that Su Fei still felt some scrutinizing eyes staring at him, and looked towards the mountain road, a few people wearing unified national costumes, but different from the other three nationalities, were standing there, there were a lot of large and small cloth bags and small porcelain jars on their bodies, their eyes were extremely cold, and the indifferent old man before was standing in front of them.

"Is this the last nation after crossing the mountain bridge?" Su Fei muttered.

Shi Luo is the leader of the Miao tribe, and he took Su Fei and the three of them around the village below the mountain, and finally led them to his door. There are also some villagers behind him, but most of them are Miao neighbors who live here, and more than half of them are children who have eaten Humang candy.

Shi Luo's home is a stilted building, with sixteen not too thick cypress trees forming a pedestal below, which is the simplest single-hanging stilted building, commonly known as "one head hanging" or "key head".

Su Fei originally thought that the room would be very damp, but after entering, he found that it was not what he thought. Moreover, there was a slightly sour but not pungent smell in the air, and Su Fei guessed that it was something similar to aromatherapy made by some kind of medicinal herb in the mountains after drying, which should have the effect of repelling mosquitoes.

There were only two wooden beds in the room, but an old woman had put several stools together and made a third bed by throwing them on the boards. This woman had the same kind smile on her face as Shi Luo, and it seemed that she should be Shi Luo's wife.

"The room is simple, so please take a look. Shi Luo asked the old woman to go out first, and then handed Su Fei a small porcelain bottle: "Here are some medicinal powders I made myself, remember to sprinkle a little of it on the windowsill and door cracks when you sleep, otherwise there may be a small snake that can't open its eyes at night." ”

"The incense burner on the table is also this powder, and the smell can also repel mosquitoes. ”

"Thank you. ”

"You're welcome, you can rest, and when dinner is ready, I'll ask my wife to come and call you." ”

After Shi Luo left, the three of them immediately began to clean up the room, Su Fei did not plan to use the bedding provided by Shi Luo, but took out the moisture-proof mat and sleeping bag from the off-road backpack, as did Xie Yufei and Hu Mang.

After packing up his things, Su Fei's attention turned to the bottle of medicinal powder that Shi Luo gave him.

When he entered this room, Su Fei found that the kind of insect repellent aromatherapy burning in the room was a special formula, and he didn't have any impression of a certain medicinal herb used in it, you must know that Su Fei hadn't encountered a drug he didn't know for a long time since he fused the "Materia Medica".

Su Fei twisted the cork of the porcelain bottle, and what hit his face was a sourness that was several times stronger than the original pervasive in the room. As a tiger clan, Hu Mang's sense of smell is more sensitive than that of ordinary people, and the moment the cork was opened, he was smoked so that his nose turned red and sour, and tears were about to flow out.

"Brother Su Fei, what are you, it's so sour!" Hu Mang covered his mouth and nose, and then quickly took out his mask from the outer pocket of his backpack and put it on himself.

"Tiger Mang, bear with me a little. ”

Su Fei was also a little embarrassed, so he could only speed up his tasting movements as much as possible. Su Fei dipped a little medicinal powder on the belly of his index finger, and then rubbed it with his thumb and index finger, and a trace of sour numbness gradually appeared on Su Fei's fingertips under the wrapping of the true qi of "Taiyan Decision", and then slowly diffused to the next joint.

"Well, it is indeed toxic, and it is a toxin of the fire attribute, but the amount is not large, and it will not affect the human body unless you eat it directly. ”

Su Fei knew in his heart that the main medicine of this thing should be the kind of herb that Su Fei didn't know, and after combining it with other medicines, with the help of his constant smell, it could repel mosquitoes, snakes, lizards, spiders and other reptiles and arthropods, and even Su Fei felt that these things had a certain repellent effect on those poisons common in the mountains and forests.

However, Su Fei didn't care about this, but why Shi Luo would mix this kind of thing. Although things are very practical in the mountains, Su Fei has learned that although the ethnic minorities living in the mountainous areas of Nanhuai Province have their own methods to repel mosquitoes and poisons, they are nothing more than hanging certain plants on doors and windows or on the beams of houses to drive away them with their smell.

As for making this particularly effective anti-insect and anti-snake medicine, and Su Fei is also sensitive to the law, these medicinal powders have hidden traces of refining, which are by no means available to ordinary mountain people.

Ordinary mountain people who would make this kind of thing, and also regarded this kind of thing as a necessary thing for daily life.

This village doesn't seem to be easy.

At dinner, Schroe deliberately asked his wife to fry a few mountain dishes. A stir-fried wild vegetable that Su Fei didn't know, a vegetable tofu, and a fish stew. Each dish has a common feature, that is, chili peppers, and there are a lot of chili peppers.

The humidity in the mountains is heavy, and only by eating more chili peppers can you get rid of the cold and maintain good health.

At dinner, Su Fei also had an intentional conversation with Shi Luo, and while chatting, he said that Shi Luo gave this medicinal powder.

"Oh, that's what you say. Shi Luo smiled and pointed to the mountain through the window: "This thing is an old recipe handed down from my ancestors, but it's a pity that my generation has no craftsmanship." I don't know exactly why it can repel insects and snakes, but it is just configured according to the formula left by the ancestors. ”

Su Fei asked again, "Then can you show me what the main medicine is here?"

"That's fine. ”

Shi Luo nodded at his wife, who put down the dishes and chopsticks and got up, and took a bunch of leaves from the kitchen door. This leaf is shaped like a banana leaf, but it is much smaller than a banana leaf, each leaf is about twenty centimeters long and about three centimeters wide.

"I don't know what you call it out there, but here we call it Suozi, and you can see it everywhere from our mountains to the swamps behind us. As long as there are no mosquitoes, there will be no mosquitoes, and there will be no poisonous snakes, scorpions, spiders, and other poisonous substances in the soil below. ”

"Sometimes we're forced to spend the night in the field, so we collect it and spread it on the ground so that we can sleep soundly, which is much better than the mosquito repellent sold in the city. ”

Su Fei listened to Shi Luo's words, while carefully observing the thing named Suozi, Su Fei saw it clearly, from the shape of the alder, it should also be suitable for the alder to belong to the same fern, but the species are different, but I don't know why this thing is not recorded in the general medical books and prescriptions.

Su Fei tore off two leaves and stuffed them into his mouth, the speed was too fast, Shi Luo didn't react for a while.

"Oops, this thing can't be eaten, spit it out. Shi Luo hurriedly called, and asked his wife to get hot water for Su Fei.

"It's okay, I'm just a little curious about this soothing, don't worry, I'm a Chinese medicine practitioner myself, and I have a concept of the toxicity of this. ”

Su Fei casually explained two sentences, this bit of toxicity may make ordinary people have fever and diarrhea or something, but for himself, he has no such worries, and it will also promote Su Fei to further understand the characteristics of this saozi.

Sure enough, after chewing, Su Fei felt a sour hemp infiltrating his mouth, which was caused by the toxicity of Suozi, it seems that Suozi can not only repel mosquitoes, but also have an effect similar to anesthetic, but it is very limited. Coupled with the fire attribute toxin he had detected before, Su Fei already had a rough understanding of why this thing could repel insects and snakes.

In a humid place like the mountains, even if it is poisonous, most of them are water attribute or earth attribute, and the sao with fire attribute toxins is naturally their nemesis, not to mention that with the increase of the age of the thing, the fire attribute toxins in the sao are also increasing, which is enough to repel insects and snakes.

But Shi Luo was still not at ease, so he asked his wife to get Su Fei a glass of warm water, and then took out some powder from the cowhide bag he carried and sprinkled it into the warm water, and brought it to Su Fei: "Drink it quickly, you can detoxify it after drinking." ”

In order to make Shi Luo feel at ease, Su Fei drank all the warm water in one go, and found that there was a faint fishy saltiness in the water, like the taste of coarse salt. After carefully tasting it, Su Fei found that this should be another medicinal material that was not lethal to him, and the cold water attribute in it could just neutralize the fire attribute toxin of Suozi.

The corners of his mouth, which were still a little numb, quickly returned to their original state.

"What is this?" Su Fei pointed to Shi Luo's finger, which still had the foam left by the medicine powder just now, which turned pale yellow.

Shi Luo smiled and took out a plastic medicine bottle the size of a baby's palm from the cowhide pouch: "This is also a kind of medicine that we always have, which can detoxify the poison of the son." ”

"You don't know that there is a dense layer of small white thorns on the leaves and branches of the sa seed, and in the juvenile these little thorns are soft, but after the third circle of leaves is completely unfurled, these little thorns become hard, and they are often tied by them when they gather. ”

"When the time comes, you have to use the powder made from the drying and grinding of this dodder leaf to wipe the place where it has grown, otherwise the world will be numb and difficult to breathe when it grows. ”

Shi Luo's wife immediately took off the dodder leaves hanging on the beam of the house and put them in front of Su Fei and the others, Su Fei stepped forward to take a closer look, and found that this should be a moss-like plant, and it should like to grow in a dark and damp place in a dark and damp place.

"Suozi, dodder leaves, interesting. Su Fei muttered, then turned his head to look at Shi Luo and said with a smile: "Old man Shi Luo, can I buy you a little powder made from sao zi and dodder leaves?" ”

"Yes, of course, the guests who came to the village some time ago also bought a lot of these things after seeing them, hehehehe. ”

"Huh!?"

Xie Yufei and Hu Mang immediately became alert, and Su Fei was curious: "Apart from us, have you seen anyone else coming from outside recently? How many of them are there? What are they like?"

This time Shi Luo didn't speak, and his wife smiled while cleaning up the dishes and chopsticks: "It seems that the time is almost a week ago, and there are quite a lot of people here, more than 20." Also driving an off-road vehicle like you guys. The leader of the team is still a young man, by the way, about the same age as you, and he is very easy to talk to. ”

At that time, he also wanted to buy all the sao and dodder leaves in the village, but Shi Luo did not agree and only sold some of them to him. ”

Shi Luo added: "I don't think this young man is simple, he has an old man who is about the same age as me, but he doesn't look like his elder, but like his bodyguard." They restocked themselves and went deeper that day, and did not spend the night. ”

Young people, people in their twenties, old people......

I'm afraid it's only Yuan Qinghua and his shadow guard! And the old man next to him is the shadow puppet master Qin Yu!
