Four hundred and fifty-nine: The scourge of the opium poppy

459. The scourge of the opium poppy

"I can't stand it, I can't stand it. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info" Zhou Yanbo said weakly lying on the straw mat.

"This is the Meditation Pavilion, and someone will come in at any time to see your ugly appearance and want to gag back to the room!" Yun Yun, who was sitting on the side, said unceremoniously.

"But Yun'er, you think, I was able to stay in Jiazhou for more than six months, this is really unbelievable, since Jiazhou was established, except for something, I have never stayed in Jiazhou for such a long time!" Zhou Yanbo suddenly sat up and stared at Yun Yun and said.

Yun Yun fought back mercilessly: "It's simple and clear that you just want to go out to play again, don't you?" So why did you build this Jiazhou City in the first place, you know that you are the city lord, but you always don't stay in the city and spread wilderness outside, and you have lost all the tricky things to others, can you still find a city lord like you in the world?"

"Empty City Lord!" Zhou Yanbo said loudly, "I only have one name!"

"Huh, you still know, I thought you had been intoxicated with the city lord of Jiazhou City. Yun Yun deliberately pretended to be surprised and said.

"So what? I just need an empty position. Zhou Yanbo regained his previous sly smile, "Anyway, no one can take Jiazhou from my hands." ”

"Enjoy it......" Yun Yun didn't mind Zhou Yanbo's character very much.

"It's a bit far. Zhou Yanbo said, "I really want to go out to play, can I go?"

"The place has not been decided, so you will determine the number of people first?"

"Does it matter who comes before and who comes after these two?"

"Then let me ask you, have you thought of a place where you can play?" Yun Yun threw the most direct question to Zhou Yanbo, Zhou Yanbo was stunned, thought for a while, and said slowly.

"Think about it on the road?"

"Stupid!" Yun Yun scolded and left the Meditation Pavilion directly.

"Stupid one, aren't you married to a stupid one?" Zhou Yanbo muttered after Yun Yun left, but Zhou Yanbo really didn't want to be bored in Jiazhou anymore, he really wanted to go out, and he really didn't think of a place to play.

In the afternoon, Zhou Yansu came to Zhou Yanbo, saying that Xu Zhanzhi had something to discuss with him, and asked him to rush to Hongfeng Villa immediately, Xu Zhanzhi was already waiting.

"Old Xu, you called us to Red Maple Villa, it's really the first time. In the maple frost room of the villa, Zhou Yanbo sat down cross-legged and said, while Zhou Yansu sat diagonally behind Zhou Yanbo.

"Naturally, I have something to tell you, aren't you the city lord of Jiazhou?" Xu Zhanzhi said.

Hearing Xu Zhanzhi say this, Zhou Yanbo immediately felt that the conversation between himself and Yun Yun in the morning was a slap in the face, but Xu Zhanzhi said this, which proved that something happened to Jiazhou, and it should not be a trivial matter.

"Could it be that there won't be any plague or disease in Jiazhou again?" Zhou Yanbo said in a worried tone, although the plague when the ghosts and monsters talked about it in Jiazhou last time had passed, but Zhou Yanbo always felt that the vitality lost in Jiazhou at that time had not been completely replenished, and if there was another plague, it would be a heavy disaster for Jiazhou.

"Rest assured, according to the sanitary conditions in Jiazhou, it is difficult to form a major plague, and the water conservancy system of Shifuzi is very useful. Xu Zhanzhi said, "I want to say another thing, although it is not a plague, but it is more difficult than the plague." ”

"What?"

"Come with me first. Saying that, Xu Zhanzhi stood up and led the way in front, and Zhou Yanbo and Zhou Yansu immediately followed.

After walking a few steps, the three people came to Fengyue, which was vacated by Xu Zhanzhi as a temporary medical place, and there was a person lying on a bed inside, slightly fat, and sleeping.

Zhou Yanbo noticed that this person's limbs, wrists and ankles have obvious indentations, and it seems that they have been controlled by ropes or chains.

"This is a patient I have recently received, from time to time convulsions, asthma, see many doctors are not well, so I transferred to my Red Maple Villa, but this person is not sick, it is considered to have sequelae. ”

"Sequelae? Does this person have a history of medical conditions?"

"No, although he is slightly obese, he is still healthy, and there is no record of serious illness before. ”

"Then I don't understand. ”

"Do you know a wine shop that is very famous in Jiazhou recently?

"You're talking about the newly opened restaurant in Chaomi Bridge, I haven't been there, but when I go to the street, I hear pedestrians often mention it, and I don't have any entertainment to talk about, what do you do in that kind of place?"

"This person lying on the bed is a good eater, and he likes to taste the world's food the most, so he often goes to some famous restaurants to eat, and he often goes to eat in the newly opened wine shop, and he listens to his family that he went almost every day later, but became like this. ”

"I really don't understand, what does it have to do with his current situation to eat delicious food, is it food poisoning?"

"It's okay if it's food poisoning, but he's poisoned by the Broken Gut Grass, no, this is the old name, and now it should be called poppy." ”

"I still don't understand, is this thing Chinese medicine?"

It is a medicinal material, and it is also clearly recorded in many books such as "Materia Medica" and "Materia Medica", but if this medicine is ingested too much, it is not a traditional Chinese medicine, but a poison. ”

"So the restaurant served its guests with poison-laced meals?"

"I heard that adding a little poppy husk to a meal can make it taste better, but it's not a good thing for the human body. ”

"Then can this man be saved? Listening to what you said, he must have eaten a lot of food. ”

"I'll give it a try. ”

"Try to give it a try, Elder Xu, haven't you ever touched this kind of thing?"

"This kind of thing can only be encountered in the southwest border, not in the mainland, even if there is one, I won't use it, you know why I am called the Wind Flower Doctor, how can I use this kind of thing on them!"

"Yes...... I'll go back and talk to the wild goose now. Zhou Yanbo said.

"Leave Xiao Yansu here, just take this opportunity to teach her a lesson. ”

……

After Zhou Yanbo went back, he immediately found Zhou Yanxing and told him about his situation in Xu Zhanzhi, saying that he was just taking this opportunity to clean up the dirty things in Jiazhou, and he had already asked Su Yuer and Yindie to go to investigate secretly, so as not to do anything in advance, now just let the people from the Jiazhou Department dispatch.

Zhou Yanxing did the same, and three days later, Zhou Yanbo followed Zhou Yanxing to Jiazhou House to check how the harvest of the Jiazhou Department was.

"Seven carriages, are you kidding?" Zhou Yanbo couldn't help but exclaim when he heard that the Jiazhou Bureau had collected more than seven loaded carriages.

"You said that this is a very dangerous thing in Jiazhou, and it was reported on the Jiazhou House, maybe it's a joke?" Zhou Yanxing said.

"But even so, seven carriages are too ......" Zhou Yanbo thought that one or two carriages were too much.

"The subordinate has a word to say. Lei Ren of the Jiazhou Department stood up and said, "The poppies in these seven carriages do not just come from that one wine shop, but include all the entire Jiazhou...... It's just Jiazhou's share. ”

"What do you want to say?" asked Zhou Yanxing.

"Lord, since Jiazhou is already like this, then all parts of the Zhou family ......"

"The order of the Jiazhou House ordered all Zhou families and provincial prefectures to strictly investigate the spread of all opium poppies in their territories, and summarize them to Jiazhou, and the collected opium poppies were destroyed uniformly. Zhou Yanxing reacted immediately.

"Yes. Zhou Fengxue took the order.

"You say, this won't be a good thing for your Meng Sun family to do, right?" Later in the evening, Zhou Yanbo came to the Weiwang Mansion in the east of the city, which was the residence he found for Meng Sunying.

"It can't be. Meng Sunying replied to Zhou Yanbo calmly drinking tea.

"Give me a reason. ”

"Xiao Langjun, you still don't know about the Meng Sun family's dark province, such a thing is definitely taken over by the dark province. Meng Sunying put down the teacup, "This king also knows a little about poppies, something that can only be found in distant places in the southwest, although the forces involved in the dark province are large, but they can't reach such a distant place in the southwest, let alone use this method to deal with Jiazhou, and although this method is very hidden, but the unknowns are also very large, and the dark province will also use such a clumsy method." ”

"I heard you say it doesn't look like a matter of Meng Sun?"

"At least the dark spectrophs won't be involved. ”

"The old man has also heard about the poppy. Jiang Yuezhi, who was sitting on the side, said, "I heard that the medicine made of this medicinal material is very scarce, and it is very sought-after, and the price is almost the same as gold in secret, it is this high lure that prompts many people to resell this medicine, and there seems to be an organization in the southwest that specializes in doing such things, which is not only very large, but also secretive." ”

"Unknown opponent. Zhou Yanbo said.

"Yes, I heard that the southwest is a beautiful place, and the culture there is quite colorful, and it would be better if there was no such ugly phenomenon. Jiang Yuezhi sighed.

"Beautiful place......" Zhou Yanbo seemed to think of something. Jiang Yuezhi's unintentional words made Zhou Yanbo decide to go to the southwest border.

"Yun'er!" returned to Zhou's Mansion Zhou Yanbo found Yun Yun, "The destination has been decided, the southwest border!"

"Zhou Yanbo, you ......" Yun Yun removed Zhou Yanbo's hands on her shoulders, "Are you going to play or do you want us to accompany you to risk your life?"
