Chapter 096
The breeze was blowing, and Shen Man wrinkled his nose and asked, "Do you smell anything strange?" ”
Lime covered her nose and frowned, "This is a field, since you want to grow radishes, you naturally need to fertilize." The stench you smell is the fertilizer that has just been delivered. ”
Sure enough, a few people pushing the cart slowly came to the ridge in the distance, and there were several huge wooden barrels on the cart, and the barrels swayed as the cart was pushed, splashing a little brown liquid from time to time, leaving a lot of marks along the road. Presumably, this bucket is full, and the smell is also very strong. Those who met them on the way retreated, but after a few hesitations, some people still struggled to come forward and beg for the fertilizer that had just been delivered.
They would carry a barrel and scoop it into the barrel with a scoop to take it away.
This is a gift from the meteorological gate, and Tang Huiyuanmen is afraid that these pampered children of the family will not be able to grow radishes, so he kindly teaches from time to time, so that these candidates will not be at a loss. Although it is their Yin-Yang Dao technique that is examined, the most basic natural laws must not be ignored.
Shen Man looked at the two people next to him, they were all outstanding and did not eat the fireworks of the world, it was really hard to imagine the picture of them personally fertilizing. But at the same time, Shen Man also wanted to see how Lime and Tang Jiuyue used these fertilizers to irrigate the radish, and they could only see it when they were not in office, and when they each embarked on their official careers in the future, one became the gate supervisor of the Jiaozheng Gate, and the other became the gate supervisor.
The wooden cart carrying the fertilizer was getting closer, and the faces of Lime and Tang Jiuyue were getting more and more ugly. It's not the first time, but I'm still sick to the taste. Since planting turnips, the two have become more and more emaciated. When I returned to the house, I was sick to my stomach in the face of the delicacies of the mountains and seas, and I vomited and ate after eating, and in the end I could only chew the hard steamed buns and barely swallow them. Soups and other foods are completely untouchable, and just looking at them from a distance makes you feel disgusting.
"Lady Lime." Tang Jiuyue looked at her, her eyes were surprisingly bright.
"Miss Tang." Lime jaw first.
So the two of them faced each other, reined in their previous relaxed expressions, Tang Jiuyue rolled up her sleeves and stretched out her hand, and the same was true for lime, for a while, the sword was tense.
Shen Man didn't know that they would use guessing to decide who would irrigate today's radishes, and in her eyes, looking at the posture of these two girls at the moment was a bit like a fight.
She couldn't bear to fight to the death with these two beautiful girls, and when she just wanted to stop it, she saw the bright eyes of the two people exploring in her direction at the same time, as if they had reached some kind of tacit understanding in an instant. Facing the eyes of these two people, Shen Man vaguely felt that something was about to happen.
"You ...... What to do? ”
Lime smiled sweetly, her tone was also very gentle, and her voice was crisp and straightforward. "Girl, are you afraid of getting dirty?"
Shen Man blinked, "I'm afraid ......"
Lime continued to laugh and say, "I have a way to make you not afraid of dirty in the future, do you want to try it?" ”
Shen Man hurriedly shook his head, "I don't want to try ......"
"Don't you have something to ask me for?" Tang Jiuyue's voice came faintly, right in Shen Man's ears, "If you help me fertilize, no matter what, I promise to help you." ”
"Really?"
"There is no lie." Tang Jiuyue stretched out her hand, "High-five." ”
She thought that Shen Man would think about it, but she didn't expect her to stretch out her hand neatly and high-five herself, as if she was afraid that Tang Jiuyue would regret it, and then Ying Ying smiled and said, "Miss Tang must not be a person who will regret it lightly." ”
"Naturally not." After Tang Jiuyue finished speaking, she stepped aside, because the wooden cart pushing the fertilizer had already arrived in front of her.
As soon as Shen Manfu approached, he felt that he was about to faint, and tried to hold his breath and scoop it with the scoop. Seeing the sticky and yellowish stuff in this bucket, my stomach churned.
"Girl, hurry up, we have the next place to send." The old man pulling the cart squinted his eyes and urged, "You can scoop out as much as you need, there are two barrels next to the girl, so let's do your best to scoop up the two barrels." ”
Shen Man didn't say much, took a sharp breath, and held back this breath and desperately scooped two buckets full of fertilizer. In the end, her little face was bruised.
Lime pulled Tang Jiuyue to the side, watching Shen Man staggering with two buckets of fertilizer to irrigate their radish fields. After Shen Man worked for a while, he rubbed his sour shoulders and sniffed the strange smell on his body. I thought that this smell would not be able to get rid of it for a while.
Looking at the clouds on the horizon, I realized that this day had passed unconsciously. Tang Jiuyue led Shen Man back to the shed, and casually pointed to a set of clothes placed in the corner of the shed for her to change.
"There's no place to bathe here, you can change your clothes for the time being, and when you get back to the city, you can go to the Liufangtang to take a bath to get rid of the smell."
Shen Man said, "Although the smell of this fertilizer is very strong, I seem to have smelled other smells. ”
Tang Jiuyue lowered her head and muttered, "Maybe it's the smell of the pill in the field over there." ”
"Pills?"
"There is a candidate from Danmen nearby, and he has set up an alchemy furnace in the field, refining the elixir and dissolving it into fertilizer to water the radish every day."
Shen Man couldn't help frowning, "This fertilizer is already nutritious enough, and he even has to add it." ”
Tang Jiuyue looked at the slender figure in the screen that was full of changing clothes, her eyes flashed, and she looked out of the shed with a different face, "This is related to whether you can enter the Yin Yang Prison, so naturally you have to do everything you can to show what you have learned." ”
"And what about you, Miss Tang?" Shen Man changed his clothes, bowed his head and buttoned them, and walked out at the end, smiling at Tang Jiuyue Yingying, "What is Miss Tang's housekeeping skills, how do you grow turnips?" ”
It's really a person who relies on clothes and horses to rely on saddles, Shen Man's previous outfit is ordinary, the texture is so-so, and the whole person is dusty, and his tired face is often hung on his face. Walking in the crowd is nothing special. But Tang Jiuyue's clothes are very different, the materials are soft and bright, and with Shen Man's flower-like well-behaved face, even Tang Jiuyue was stunned for a moment.
"Miss Tang?"
"Don't worry," Tang Jiuyue retracted her gaze and said lightly, "The radishes I grow must be better than theirs." ”
Shen Man smiled, looked at her and said, "When you applied fertilizer before, you promised me one thing. ”
"Hmm."
Shen Man continued, "Time is pressing, I won't hide this matter from you anymore, I hope you will rescue someone for me after you enter the Taige." This person is also a girl, and she should be in Taige's cell at the moment, but I don't know which cell it is, and I still need to bother you to investigate. ”
Tang Jiuyue said, "Are you so easy to get in and out of Taige, even if I can go in, I can't bring a big living person out." ”
A thin layer of mist rose from the field, and Shen Man's eyes seemed to be covered with a layer as well.
Through this kind of mistle, Shen Man said slowly, "Isn't there a way, in a few days, she will ......" The light in her eyes gradually dimmed. After running around for a long time, I thought of one method after another, but in the end it was still a flash, and after all, I still couldn't save Tang Jiuyue, who was trapped in the Taige cell.
Tang Jiuyue asked, "What did your friend do?" ”
Shen Man smiled bitterly, "Since you have no choice, I can only think of another idea." I just hope that Miss Tang will see that we know each other once, and don't reveal this matter. ”
After Shen Man finished speaking, he got up and wanted to say goodbye and leave, but when he just walked to the door, he heard Tang Jiuyue behind him ask again, "Is your friend the 'demon girl' mentioned in the notice posted by Taige?" ”
Shen Man stopped in front of the door, leaned on the side of the door and said, "It's her." ”
Tang Jiuyue said, "As far as I know, although Zou Damen Supervisor is a little ......," she paused and said thoughtfully, "Although it is a little unusual, it will not frame a good person." Since he took office, he has implemented the law of 'goodness', and has never taken such extreme actions, such as the punishment of fire, which he has never used, and a few years ago, he vigorously opposed it in the court. Now he says that he wants to use such a punishment, either because your friend is so guilty that he can't bear it, or because he doesn't really want to burn her, but wants to lure someone out. ”
When she finished speaking, her eyes naturally fixed on Shen Man's face.
Shen Man's fingers trembled slightly, and he pointed at himself incredulously, "Do you think he wants to lure me out?" ”
"Possibly." Tang Jiuyue said, "I don't think he will really take your friend's life, so for the sake of you fertilizing me, I will take you to see Uncle Zou tomorrow." ”
"Zou... Uncle? ”
"Well," Tang Jiuyue said, "he is friends with my uncle and even friends, and now it is the big exam of the Yin and Yang Dao, so I should go to the meeting with some gifts." ”
Shen Man was stunned for a moment, and then then exclaimed, "Miss Tang, shouldn't you be in front of me and say that you are going to bribe the chief examiner of the Yin-Yang Dao Examination?" ”
Tang Jiuyue had already bypassed Shen Man and walked out of the shed, and when she heard this, she looked Shen Man up and down, raised her eyebrows and said, "What do you say?" ”
Shen Man was speechless.
Tang Jiuyue looked at the sunset on the horizon and said slowly, "It's not early, let's set off early." By the way, I hope you bring enough silver, otherwise you will have to use the Fenglin pendant on your waist to offset it. ”
