Chapter 417: Guided by Blood
The corners of Duan Xiao's mouth twitched, and it was initially estimated that there were probably a few hundred flowers.
Before sunset?
Duan Xiao looked up at the sky, the sun had sunk in the west, and now this time was about an hour away from sunset.
"If you don't dare, you can roll down the hill now. ”
"Elder Hui, Duan Xiao is willing to give it a try. "Being kicked down the mountain now is no different from being kicked down the mountain without completing the task within the allotted time, and it doesn't cost you money to give it a try.
Besides, Duan Xiao finally had a chance to enter the inner door.
This meant that he was one step closer to the cabinet and Elder Xuanyuan Xin, how could he leave easily?
How could a person who dared to break into the depths of the Misty Forest give up the opportunity to stay at the inner gate?
Duan Xiao was able to have this choice, and Elder Lingji was not surprised.
"But don't blame me for not reminding you, if you accidentally get cut by Watarai, I won't save you, it's your own choice, and you should bear the consequences. ”
"Yes!" Duan Xiao didn't worry about this matter at all, the Buddha's bones had the effect of being invulnerable, and although the toxins of the birth were violent, they were not enough to kill him. It's just that those little bugs are a little bit tricky.
"In addition, if you accidentally destroy any of the herbs in my medicine garden, I will pick off your hands and feet, drain your blood, and make flower fertilizer!" Elder Lingji deliberately frightened Duan Xiao.
"Yes!"
"The tweezers are on the stone table, take them yourself. ”
After Elder Lingji finished explaining the task, he left with her bowl of chicken feed.
Only Duan Xiao was left in the entire backyard.
Looking at the fat chickens and ducks in the yard, Duan Xiao's stomach actually barked out of place.
I miss the taste of this homegrown chicken......
It was a pity that he dared to steal the chickens raised by his master, but he did not dare to steal the chickens of this Lingji elder.
It is estimated that in the eyes of her old man, Duan Xiao's little life is not before the chickens she raised.
Fuck, drooling is coming out, wipe my mouth.
Duan Xiao settled down and decided to return his attention to the large and difficult Dusheng.
Duan Xiao has really never seen this herb Duan Xiao, and he doesn't know its medicinal properties.
Looking closer, Duan Xiao only felt that it was dark in front of him. Each plant of his meow was densely packed with dozens of needle-sized insects.
Especially in the center of the flower, which is simply a nest of insects.
And this bug is very active and agile, just like the larvae in gardenias.
If this is a pincer one by one, there will be a pincer in the Year of the Monkey!
Duan Xiao looked at the delicately crafted tweezers in his hand, and suddenly felt that Elder Lingji was playing tricks on him at all.
Duan Xiao tried to clamp it, compared to a small insect of this size, the tweezers in his hand looked a little clumsy.
Even if Duan Xiao's eyes are quick and every blow does not miss, there are small insects on every petal and leaf on this crossing. The closer you are to the center of the flower, the more bugs there are.
No matter how fast Duan Xiao moved, it would take nearly ten minutes to finish processing a plant.
In an hour, even if he doesn't stop working, he can only finish six plants.
Moreover, these ferryanimals are planted very densely, one plant after another, so it cannot be ruled out that the cleaned plant will not be contaminated again by the small insects that have not been cleaned up next to it.
So......
If you want to get rid of these bugs, you definitely won't rely on this method.
But what kind of methods do you have to use to get rid of these bugs?
"In addition, if you accidentally destroy any of the herbs in my medicine garden, I will pick off your hands and feet, drain your blood, and make flower fertilizer!"
In his mind, he recalled over and over what Elder Lingji had said before leaving.
Wait a minute!
Drain the blood and make flower fertilizer!
Duan Xiao bent down to carefully observe these crossing beings.
Press the palm of your left hand and let the blood drip into the dirt.
At this moment, Duan Xiao suddenly found that the small insects on several of the surrounding plants were actually pulled down the branches and poured towards his blood.
It didn't take long for the little bugs to be motionless and braided.
Duan Xiao had a flash of inspiration, it turned out that these insects liked the smell of blood. But blood can also disrupt their bodily functions, leading to death. It's like a moth to a fire.
Now that you know their preferences, things are much easier.
Duan Xiao ripped off the strip of cloth wrapped in his left hand and dripped blood around Dusheng.
After this whole set, Duan Xiao almost lost a large bowl of blood.
This is not good news for a person who has already lost too much blood.
After Duan Xiao finished bleeding, he felt dizzy and his legs were weak.
I couldn't help muttering in my heart, is it that I am not active in donating blood normally, so I have made up for it all this time?
But fortunately, the task left by Elder Lingji has been completed.
On the other side, the red clothes didn't look so calm, like a donkey grinding, back and forth in the ashram.
From time to time, I also asked Xuanyuan Shuang:
"Eh, senior sister, you said it's been almost an hour, why hasn't that guy come back yet?
Compared with the red clothes, Xuanyuan Shuang is much calmer, and even has the leisure to copy calligraphy and painting.
But only Xuanyuan Shuang knew that his heart seemed to be in chaos, and copying calligraphy and painting was just to calm down. Not really unworried.
"Don't turn around, I'm dizzy, sit down and have a cup of tea." ”
"Senior sister, how can I be in the mood to drink tea? Actually, that guy is a good person, if he is really killed by the elders, there will be no one to talk to me in the future. "Hongyi grew up in Lingji Mountain since he was a child, and grew up under the care of Elder Lingji and Xuanyuan Shuang, and his temperament is naturally more out of his temper than others, and he can be called a clear stream in Buddhism.
After so many years, Hongyi finally met a guy who had an appetite for her.
If she really dies like this, won't she be bored again in the future?
"Duan Xiao entered the depths of the Misty Forest with you, and Master has always been very concerned about the affairs in the depths of the Misty Forest, so he didn't come out so easily this time. ”
According to Xuanyuan Shuang's judgment of her master, Elder Lingji was bound to interrogate Duan Xiao carefully.
"But it's been almost an hour, the sun is about to set, and the elder is not a man of many words, why can he ask for such a long time?"
On the other side, after Duan Xiao cleaned up those difficult insects, after all, this was Elder Lingji's private residence, and it was not easy for him to break in.
Coupled with excessive blood loss, I was already dizzy. I found a nearby stone table and lay down.
This lie is directly lying on the sun setting.
Duan Xiao slept so soundly that he didn't even notice that someone was coming from the backyard.
"You slept comfortably. ”
Duan Xiao was so frightened that he almost rolled off the stone table, and after staggering to his feet, he found that it was the old woman he had seen before.
"Senior!" Duan Xiao saluted and wiped the saliva from the corner of his mouth in embarrassment.
There was no way, he wasn't full, and his dream was full of braised pork, and he couldn't hold back.
"Are you done?"
"It's done, it's done, senior, please see!"
The old woman only glanced at it, and saw that the insects were indeed clean.
"How did you find out that blood can repel worms?"
Being able to discover this characteristic of Wasei in such a short period of time is not something that ordinary people can do.
"This is thanks to Elder Lingji's reminder, the elder said before leaving, if I step on the flowers and plants here, let go of my blood and make flower fertilizer. ”
Elder Lingji's original intention was to threaten Duan Xiao, but he didn't expect this guy's mind to be so delicate, and he could actually discover the property that blood can kill insects with just a few words.
Elder Lingji's words were completely unintentional.
However, he passed the test.
"The elder has already rested, you can go back!" the woman said and ignored Duan Xiao, turned around and left.
Since there is no disposition to talk, it must be an endorsement of him.
Duan Xiao breathed a sigh of relief.
Since there is nothing to do with him, the first thing to do now is to fill his stomach.
Duan Xiao was in a hurry, Senior Brother Fu was not in the small kitchen at this time.
After all, Duan Xiao is Xuanyuan Shuang's new medicine boy, and it is said that Senior Sister Xuanyuan looks good to him. So the chef in the small kitchen had a pretty good attitude towards Duan Xiao.
When they saw him come in, they greeted him one after another.
"Senior Brother Duan Xiao, why are you here?"
"Didn't I miss dinner in time? I'm hungry, come and get something to fill my stomach. Duan Xiao said and walked around the small kitchen twice, casually picking up the black chicken soup that had been served on the table.
"Eh, Senior Brother Duan, don't move! This is a supper prepared for Senior Brother Fu!"
But Duan Xiao started too quickly, and he had already drunk it.
"It tastes good. Duan Xiao wiped the corners of his mouth and laughed dryly.
"You see you didn't say it earlier, I drank it all, you can't let me spit it out, right? Besides, if I spit it out, Senior Brother Fu won't dare to drink it, right?"
"Alas-you said this is a whole ......" The little chef slapped his thigh angrily, he didn't know what to say, how did he know that Duan Xiao didn't even say hello, and went straight to it.
"Didn't you secretly hide some of the chicken soup and drink it yourself?" Duan Xiao took another big sip and leaned over to ask mysteriously.
"Senior Brother Duan, what you said. How dare we do such a rebellious thing?" the little chef shook his head as if frightened.
Duan Xiao scooped up the chicken thighs in the bowl and nibbled on them.
With a greasy smile: "Don't be nervous, I'll just ask casually." ”
After all, that's what he'd done before, so he thought everyone else would do the same.
"You, you...... You're still gnawing on it!" "The little chef almost cried out of breath, the black chicken soup he boiled for Senior Brother Fu was gone, how will he explain it at that time?"
"You can rest assured, I will bear the responsibility if something happens, Senior Brother Fu can't find your head. Duan Xiao patted the little chef on the shoulder in a friendly way.
What a big deal, look at what scared him.
The kung fu of speaking was just in time for Senior Brother Fu who came to get the chicken soup.
The little chef was so frightened that he was directly clever, and hurriedly retreated behind Senior Brother Fu, pointed at Duan Xiao, the culprit, and said:
"Senior Brother Fu is none of my business, it's Senior Brother Duan who drank your chicken soup. ”
At this time, Xiao Xiao was holding a bowl in his left hand and a half-gnawed chicken leg in his right hand.
Stealing food was directly caught by Senior Brother Fu.
Senior Brother Fu's face turned black as soon as he brushed it.
