Ling'er washed up while playing with Shuangniang, and when she was about to go out, she intentionally or unintentionally glanced at the corner of the wall last night, and suddenly she was stunned, and when she looked back, it was empty!

How can it be? She rubbed her eyes and looked at it again, was there really nothing?

"Little Stone, what are you looking at? Hurry up, it's going to be too late if you don't go! Shuangniang pulled him out.

"Wait, wait, Sister Shuangniang, just take a break!" Ling'er broke away from Shuangniang's hand and ran to the corner, following the position in her memory. If you look closely, you will find that there seem to be several circular marks on the ground in the corner of the wall, the size of a tile pot.

By the way, could it be that the strange little grass I saw last night was planted in this clay pot? When Chef Sun was here last night, could it be that Chef Sun planted it himself? He still collects the grass in the house every day? What is so precious?

"Little stone, don't rub it in, hurry up, hurry up, there's already a menu coming in front, the dirty dishes will come soon, we have to go and prepare!" Shuangniang pulled Ling'er to trot and came to the small courtyard where the dishes were washed.

Sure enough, as soon as they were ready, the dirty dishes in front of them were delivered one after another. Today is still busy, Shuangniang, who is familiar with Ling'er, is chattering while washing, Ling'er should be with herself but rarely takes the initiative to bring up the topic, because she has been wondering what the grass she saw last night is? Feel... Looks like you've seen it somewhere?

This question haunted her for most of the day, and it was not until she had a break in the middle of the afternoon that she had time to return to the courtyard. When she arrived at the gate of the courtyard, she happened to meet Chef Sun who came out, and he saw Ling'er and smiled and said, "Boy, are the dishes washed?" ”

Ling'er hurriedly stepped aside and saluted respectfully: "Yes, Master Sun, I consulted with the third aunt and Shuangniang in the morning, and I heard that the dishes are large and small, the shape is different, the materials are different, and the corresponding uses are also different, is this the case?" Master Sun? ”

Chef Sun stroked his chin with satisfaction and nodded, and said with a smile: "You can teach!" Okay, let's go back and rest! Then he rolled his sleeves and walked slowly to his own private kitchen.

"Master Sun!" Ling'er called out to him, and Chef Sun turned around: "What? Boy, do you want me to teach you? ”

"No, no, that... ...... last night"

"Last night? What happened last night? ”

"That ...... last night" Ling'er didn't know what to say? He simply pointed to the corner of the wall and said, "Here... Something here? ”

Chef Sun walked to the corner with his hands behind his back, and looked around for a while: "It's nothing!" ”

"No, that's... I mean, last night, I... I saw that ......."

"Which one?"

"That's the one, the one that shines......"

Chef Sun frowned and thought for a while, "No, I've lived in this courtyard for several days, this place has always been like this, there's nothing!" Boy, aren't you confused at work? Go and rest, don't forget that you still have two days, okay, that's it! ”

Chef Sun walked away slowly humming a little song, as if he was in a good mood, looking at his expression was exactly the same as when he first saw him, as if the changing Chef Sun last night was completely just his own hallucination! Ling'er herself was confused, could it be that she was just sleepwalking by herself last night?

Ling'er shook her head, she was really tired, forget it, let's go back to sleep first! She went back to her room, fell into bed, and fell asleep. In a daze, she seemed to hear someone calling her name, she turned over and muttered: "Don't make noise, people are so tired!" ”

"Ling'er, Ling'er, get up quickly, show you something good!"

"Oh, what's that good? Can't wait until people wake up and then look at it? ”

"No, you can't see it when you wake up, get up!" The voice was tirelessly harassing, and Ling'er was helpless, so she had to sit up in a daze and rub her eyes, hey! What is this place?

She took a closer look...... Oh, by the way, this is the ruined temple near Yamaguchi! This place was originally Xu Banxian's temporary residence, but it was later occupied by a few beggars! Hey, don't I work as a helper in Banlin Town? Why did you get here?

"Ling'er, come here, show you something!" The person outside beckoned to her excitedly, and took a closer look, wasn't that Xu Banxian? She ran over with a bang: "Doctor Xu, why are you?" Aren't you gone? When did you come back? ”

"Don't talk about that, look at this, it's a good thing!" Ling'er looked down and was stunned for a moment, only to see a few small grass plants in the corner of the wall, with leaves the size of rice grains, glowing green in the moonlight!

Ling'er opened her mouth wide in surprise: "Oh, why is there here too?" Let me see! ”

She stretched out her hand to pick it up, but was slapped by Xu Banxian: "Don't move, this is a good thing!" How much work did it take the old man to feed! ”

Ling'er turned her head to look at Xu Banxian in a daze: "Doctor Xu, what is this?" Isn't it unusual? ”

"Of course, this is psychedelic grass, which originally grew deep in the mountains! You see, there is a faint layer of medicinal powder on its body, and if a living creature inhales it, it will be delirious, confused, and confused, and will not know what to say or do! Girl, you didn't do your homework, aren't all the books I gave you clearly written? ”

"Books? What book? ”

Xu Banxian didn't answer, just looked at her with a smile, and gradually, his figure became more and more confused, and the surrounding scene began to slowly dissolve, until it became a white expanse. Ling'er was a little frightened, and anxiously shouted while looking around. Suddenly, she stumbled under her feet, and her body threw herself down in a daze.

"Ah~~" Ling'er screamed and sat up.

"Bang!" Sure enough, I hit something on my forehead! She rubbed her forehead and exhaled, but she felt a pain on the top of her head: "Ha, little stone, I came to call you kindly, but you deliberately hit me, I really don't know the hearts of good people, I ignore you!" ”

When Ling'er came back to her senses, Shuangniang's figure had already left the house, she didn't have time to think about it, she chased out of her shoes indiscriminately, and when she arrived at the door, she unconsciously glanced at the corner of the wall last night, had a plan in her heart, and then ran out of the yard quickly.

Tonight's work doesn't seem to be as much as yesterday's, and they can take a break and take a break. Because she made Shuangniang angry in the afternoon, Ling'er accompanied her countless times not to be careful to make the little girl happy, she took advantage of this to ask some kitchen rules.

Unexpectedly, the rule mantra that Chef Sun said had just begun, and Shuangniang recited it word for word! It turned out that this thing was not a secret, and on the first day Chef Sun came here, he wrote out the rules and handed them to the managers, requiring everyone who worked in the kitchen to memorize them, and strictly enforce them, and if they didn't listen, they would be kicked out immediately.

Ling'er muttered secretly in her heart when she heard this, no wonder Chef Sun wanted to drive himself to the big kitchen, but it was clear that everyone here would do it, so why did he have to let himself wash the dishes? If you really want to give him a hand, you should first learn to cut vegetables and pick vegetables, and at worst, you should watch the fire, right? Could it be that he found himself for another purpose?

She suddenly remembered Xu Banxian's words in her dream, those strange grasses she saw in the corner in the middle of the night last night should not be hallucinations, that... Is Chef Sun's purpose related to a few small grasses?

Ling'er was busy with questions until the end of work, she returned to the courtyard until about midnight, and saw that there was silence in the courtyard, as if Chef Sun had not come back yet, she ran to the corner of the wall to look for it again, but there was still nothing. She had no choice but to go back to the house, light the lamp, close the doors and windows, take out the book of "Hundred Herbs" that she had been carrying with her from her arms, and began to carefully search for the herbs in her dream.

A quarter of an hour later, Ling'er was overjoyed, but she didn't expect that there was really a record of that strange herb in this "Hundred Herbs", this grass is called psychedelic grass, which is commonly found in the deep mountains, and animals will inhale it to make them delirious and hallucinate! Some people come back after entering the deep mountains, saying that they have entered the fairyland, seen immortals, or gone crazy, they may have encountered this kind of psychedelic grass! ……

Ling'er carefully read the records of this grass one by one, and also paid special attention to Xu Banxian's annotations, there were several cases on it, and she paid special attention to one of them:

In this case, there is a rich man who is lustful and often robs beautiful women from the street. One day, he took a fancy to a flower-like little village girl and wanted to bring her back to the house to have fun.

Originally, I thought that this woman was not easy to get started, but as soon as he stepped forward to tease, the woman said that her mother was seriously ill and urgently needed silver taels to buy medicine, as long as the rich man gave her a thousand taels of silver as a dowry, she was willing to follow the rich man for the rest of her life.

The rich man was overjoyed, thinking that the problem that money could solve was not a problem, so he agreed on the spot, gave the woman a deposit of 200 taels, and asked the entourage to follow her back to her hometown to clean up and then take it to the house. The rich man originally made a good calculation, and as soon as the little village girl arrived, he would not pay the remaining eight hundred taels.

The village girl went to his house to serve him for three days, singing songs day and night, until she woke up on the fourth day and found that she was naked** and left in the barren mountains and mountains. He finally found his way home, but found that all the people in the courtyard had been replaced, and all his properties were in the name of the village girl!

He ran to the government to beat the drum and voice his grievances, but the government and all the people testified that he personally took the little village girl to the government to go through the formalities, and voluntarily transferred all his properties to the little village girl, and his wives and concubines and children were also driven and sold by him. His own wife was also angry with him!

The rich man who had nothing had no way to ask for help, and finally ran out of the town in a frenzy, and no one knew where he went. According to Xu Banxian's description, it must be some means used by the village girl to make the rich man do such a ridiculous thing without knowing it, and that method is very likely to be this psychedelic grass!

Ling'er was surprised after reading it, this grass can really have such a miraculous effect?! If it is possessed by the wicked, isn't that ...... Wait, Chef Sun had a face for a while last night, but he didn't know it afterwards, could it be the effect of the psychedelic grass? But who put the psychedelic grass? Why do you remember it so clearly?

Ling'er thought about it, and suddenly remembered her purpose for coming here, there are still a few days before Mrs. Yan's birthday, if you can use psychedelic grass...... (To be continued.)
