Chapter 68 Going up the mountain to pick ginseng
Rong Bai was stunned for a moment, and then understood what Hengqing meant. Pen~Fun~Ge www.biquge.info This man was worried about himself for a night.
"Where have you been?" Hengqing asked.
Rong Bai used to not sleep in the middle of the night, but he was always at home to deal with things. When he first set up a stall at the dock, Rong Bai prepared the next day's meals in the evening.
However, this time, Rong Bai had the smell of Suhexiang pills.
Hengqing didn't know what it tasted like before, but it felt strange and familiar. After Rong Bai and Tang Yu quarreled, Hengqing remembered this taste.
Suhexiang pills are things that remove impurities. During the day, the white smoke was smoked, and the smell on the body almost disappeared in one afternoon. I went out for so long at night and came back, and as a result, the smell on my body was heavy again.
It must have been going out, and it went to a place that Rong Bai thought was more dangerous.
"I went to the hospital. Rong Bai didn't hide it. understood that Hengqing was worried about himself: "You can rest assured, my body should be very good." Everyone here is more susceptible to the plague than I am. You just have to protect yourself. I went to the infirmary and bought you some more medicine. Four gentlemen's soup, starting tomorrow, Xiaoqi and Qizhong will also drink some. ”
"Is there enough money to spend?" Hengqing asked.
The Four Gentlemen's Soup, in order to balance the original family affairs, is only drunk once in a while. But seeing Rong Bai like this, he planned to let their family drink it every day.
The other is easy to do, but the ginseng, which should cost a lot of money. Rong Bai only had more than two hundred taels of silver in his hand, and he didn't know if it was enough.
"Enough flowers. "Rong Bai's money is enough to spend, not to mention that when Rong Bai went to buy medicinal materials, he either carried a long knife or pinched the neck of the old doctor, who dared to ask her for a high price, in case she provoked people, that minute was a deadly rhythm.
Moreover, ginseng is a rare commodity, and the medical hall in Linjiang County is a small medical hall, where can there be so many luxurious medicinal materials, and it can be more than 100 taels of silver, and all the ginseng in the small medical hall will be wiped out.
"You also have to drink the soup of the four gentlemen. Hengqing spoke: "We don't go out at home on weekdays, and it is unlikely that we will be infected with the plague." You go out a lot, so you should take good care of yourself. ”
Rong Bai looked at Hengqing like an idiot. This man's heart is overflowing again? My body needs to continue to nourish? Beat everyone every minute, immunity is linked to physical strength, and my physical strength is so strong, what else do you need to make up for it? What if you make up for it!
Rong Bai, who couldn't cry or laugh, could only agree verbally. As for whether to drink or not, Rong Bai's decision was naturally not to drink. Just kidding, the medicine that is not enough to drink is already enough, and I have to insert another bar, so how can everyone survive this plague?
Early the next morning, Rong Bai woke up at the usual time. I don't think it's too difficult to stay up late, and I don't think it's too difficult, so I haven't slept for one or two nights? When the two sides are red-eyed on the battlefield, there are even people who die suddenly from lack of sleep.
So even Rong Bai, who didn't sleep in the middle of the night, set off with a backpack before dawn the next day. The kind of plant called ginseng introduced by the doctor last night was seen by Rong Bai in the mountains before. Although the memory is not clear, it is not far off. Therefore, the interest of going out is much higher.
In addition to the ones used at home, Rong Bai plans to collect more, in case the county order is on the line, and he is willing to use his own methods? Rong Bai knows that the county order is a rich man, and if other people blackmail him, Hengqing will still have opinions, but if the county order is blackmailed by a rich person, Hengqing should have nothing to say.
Thinking of this, Rong Bai finally came out of the haze for days.
Passing through the dry riverbed and walking through the familiar grove, the white figure slowly disappeared into the depths of the jungle. The drought has been severe for more than a month, affecting not only the city, but also many plants in the mountains. It adds difficulty to Rong Bai's analysis.
But even so, Rong Bai found a lot of ginseng. Before he entered the deep mountains, Rong Bai's back basket was already full of tuber rhizomes with blades of grass on his head. The more you find, the more strange Rong Bai becomes, something that is obviously easy to find, why do people in this era treat this thing as a treasure?
Time passed slowly, and Rong Bai found a spring to rest by the spring with a basket of herbs on his back. Looking at the traces of the spring flowing, the spring has also shrunk by half. Many of the stones were exposed to the water, baked white by the sun. Rong Bai touched the tip of his nose, sat down by the water, and put down the long knife.
She still didn't have the habit of eating lunch, so she hid by the water and soaked her feet when it was hottest.
The spring water runs cool under my feet, and my feet, which are hot from straw sandals, feel as if they are being reborn. Rong Bai lay down, his long hair and clothes slowly soaked with water.
It's just that the rest didn't last long, and after a while, I was woken up. Rong Bai opened his eyes irritably, and the direction from which the voice came from was not far from Rong Bai's side, which should be downstream of the spring. Rong Bai reached out and picked up the back basket, and with the other hand holding the long knife, he followed the sound to find it. I thought to myself, the big noon disturbed her rest, no matter what it was, she was ready to make dinner for herself.
The closer you go, the louder it becomes. After a while, I heard it clearly. After seeing the thing that made a sound, Rong Bai gave up the decision to dinner, even in the last days, Rong Bai still adhered to the bottom line of not eating people. That's right, it's not animals that make noise downstream, it's people.
Or rather, not just animals.
After seeing the person, Rong Bai did not step forward, but found a stone in the same place and watched the battle below.
That's right, the man was fighting a python. For such a long time, Rong Bai also understood that the biggest difference between this world and his own world was that the animals in this world were very petite. For example, the snake that fights with the person below, in the last days, such a big snake is also a cannon fodder, is it the kind of cannon fodder snake that trains children to practice, or the kind that just comes out of the eggshell and still carries the egg liquid.
However, in this world, such a big snake is already an old snake that is not too old.
The man fighting the snake at the bottom was wearing the same style that Hengqing usually wore. Seriously, Rong Bai doesn't like that kind of clothes, just like bed sheets. If the action is a little bigger, it will wrap your legs. As for defense, Rong Bai didn't use a knife, he could tear the clothes apart with his hands.
In the man's hand was a slender weapon. A weapon more than a meter long, with blades on both sides, but this weapon has no rigidity and does not look domineering at all.
Any existence with a weapon, Rong Bai will not underestimate it, so that person Rong Bai also takes it seriously.
It really made her discover something.
