Chapter 49: You Have a Secret
Qinglu Village and Wangshui Village have had a long-standing grievance, and Village Chief Bai really doesn't want to take care of Wangshui Village.
But when I think of those children, I can't bear it.
"Why don't I go with you?" Ji Wan saw Village Chief Bai's hesitation.
She was worried that Village Chief Bai would not inform the people of Wangshui Village now, and she would regret it later.
As soon as Village Chief Bai heard that Ji Wan was going with him, his heart was suddenly no longer entangled.
The two of them left Qinglu Village, and as soon as they walked into the boundary of Wangshui Village, they saw several little dolls smoking spinning tops.
After they saw Ji Wei and Village Chief Bai, the older children suddenly shouted, "The deflated calves of Qinglu Village are here!" ”
The children, big and small, scattered in an instant!
Ji Wan and Village Chief Bai were breathless, and they had the urge to turn around and go back.
Suddenly, there was a chaotic sound of footsteps.
Ji Wan raised her eyes and looked.
Most of the people who came were old people, women, and a few young adults who had not gone to Qinglu Village to make trouble before.
Their eyes were full of hatred.
"You still have the face?"
An old man, who was one round older than Bai Youfu, asked in a cold voice.
Ji Wan frowned, and said to Village Chief Bai: "Let's talk about it here, and leave after speaking." ”
Village Chief Bai was also disgusted.
It seems that the person who went to Qinglu Village to rob and smash is not a villager of Wangshui.
How do they have faces?
Village Chief Bai had a calm face and opened his mouth angrily.
"I'll tell you, we've figured out how to use waste jujube trees to earn money, don't cut it down."
"Okay, you old king and bastard, with a black heart and liver and rotten lungs, you want to come to pit us!"
"Who is not in a hurry to cut down the jujube trees now, plant something else early, and there will be a harvest at the end of the year. You are a white old immortal, you really have a bad conscience! ”
"Kill Qinglu Village!"
There was a boy with snot on his face, who picked up a pebble and threw it at Village Chief Bai and Ji Wan.
Others followed suit.
Ji Wan's face was slightly dark, and she helped Village Chief Bai take two steps back to avoid the pebbles.
"Village chief, let's go back, since they want to cut it, we stop it, but they have become bad people!"
The head of the white village was so aggrieved that he couldn't do it.
He looked at the water villagers.
The little babies who were looking at him with hatred.
He sighed, shook his head, and the old voice was full of helplessness and exhaustion, and said to Ji Wan: "Let's go." ”
Ji Wan nodded silently and helped Village Chief Bai to walk back.
The shouting and scolding behind him gradually became smaller......
"Ji Xuan!"
Suddenly, a crisp voice like a silver bell sounded behind him.
Ji Wan paused and turned back.
A girl who was three or four years older than her, with a stocky figure and a round face and a nose, hurriedly chased after her.
"You are?" She asked hesitantly.
"You don't remember me? I'm a fragrant warbler. ”
Xiangying saw that Ji Wan didn't react, so she immediately reminded her anxiously.
"When you were a child, you were in the Ji family, and you often didn't have anything to eat, and my brother and I secretly gave you food."
Ji Wan searched through the memories in her mind, and only then did she vaguely have some impressions.
She smiled apologetically at the other party: "Are you looking for me, is there something wrong?"
Xiangying hesitated to look at Village Chief Bai.
Seeing that the other party was not malicious, Village Chief Bai opened his mouth with great discernment.
"You talk, I'll go back first." After that, without waiting for Ji Wan to answer, he left with his hands behind his back.
Ji Wan was also a little curious, and Xiangying looked for her.
She looked at the warbler with an inquiring look in her eyes.
Xiangying stirred the corners of her clothes and asked nervously: "Ji Wan, I heard that you know a nobleman, can you ask the nobleman to let my brother go?"
Ji Wan frowned.
"If I'm not mistaken, your brother was involved in robbing the villagers of Qinglu?"
The movement of the fragrant warbler stirring the corners of her clothes became harder and harder, and her fingers turned white.
She prayed, "For your sake, wouldn't we be able to take care of you as a child?" ”
Ji Jing pursed her lips: "Your kindness, I will pay it back, one thing is the same thing." ”
"No, you can pay it back on the condition of letting my brother come back." Xiang Ying's heart fluctuated violently, and she explained anxiously.
"Besides, go to Qinglu Village, the village chief said that at least one person from each family will go, if my brother doesn't go, my family will not be able to gain a foothold in Wangshui Village!"
Ji Wan just looked at Xiangying quietly and was silent.
Everyone is responsible for their own actions.
Xiangying didn't expect Ji Jing's heart to be so hard and became more and more anxious.
Her eyes flickered, half-loud, she took a deep breath, made up her mind, and said in a deep voice.
"If you promise to save my brother, I'll tell you a secret!"
Ji Wan raised her eyebrows: "The secret of the Ji family? ”
Xiangying bit her lip, struggled for a moment, and blurted out: "No, it's yours!" ”
Ji Wan's little face suddenly tensed, and she asked rhetorically: "My secret?" What am my secrets? ”
She felt to herself that she kept the secrets of time travel and space to the death.
Shouldn't anyone find out?
can see the expression of the fragrant warbler, it doesn't look like she is telling a lie!
"You say."
"Then you promised to save my brother out." Xiangying didn't let it go.
Ji Wan suddenly turned around and left.
"Eh, I said I said." Xiangying saw that Ji Wan left without hesitation, and suddenly panicked and chased after her.
"I know you've been poisoned."
Ji Wan stopped suddenly, twisted her eyebrows and looked at Xiangying: "What did you say?" ”
Her eyes are too sharp!
Xiangying's heart jumped, she hurriedly stopped, and looked at Ji Wan, her voice was like a mosquito.
"I said, you were poisoned, and then you suddenly gained weight......"
Ji Wan was calm on her face, but her heart was turbulent, and she naturally revealed a terrifying momentum on her body.
Xiangying didn't dare to speak, staring at Ji Wan's fingers and tapping her pulse.
Time slipped away breath by breath, and Ji Wan's hand to probe the pulse did not move away.
She didn't notice anything wrong with her body.
But Ji Wan believed what Xiangying said.
Someone poisoned her......
It's just that this poison is too weird!
It's so weird that even her medical skills can't be detected......
Otherwise, why has she eaten and slept less recently, and she is so busy every day that her feet don't touch the ground, but she hasn't lost any weight?
The only explanation is - she was indeed poisoned!
Ji Wan withdrew her hand to probe the pulse and looked at Xiangying.
"I promised to save your brother, tell me what you know."
"Really?"
Xiangying looked at Ji Wan and asked.
After seeing Ji Wan nodding, the nervous look on her face suddenly relaxed.
Immediately, Xiangying frowned.
"When you first arrived at Ji's house, you looked good-looking, my family lived next door to Ji's house, and my brother and I climbed the wall every day to look at you secretly."
When Xiang Ying said this, her voice suddenly became very tight, and her voice trembled.
"One evening, I suddenly saw a woman with a black cloak wrapped in her whole body and scars on her face appearing, and handed Sai Fengxian a few medicine bags."
"Women?" Ji Wan frowned.
"Yes, a woman with a disfigured face, she will explain to Sai Fengxian and boil medicine for you to drink."
"I've gained weight since I took the pills?"
Xiangying nodded, looking at Ji Wan's eyes with some sympathy.
Ji Wan was still a little confused.
"How can you conclude that what that person gave to Sai Fengxian is poison?"
Xiangying heard Ji Wan's inquiry, her eyelashes were quickly inciting, and after hesitating, she gritted her teeth and said to Ji Wan.
"I heard that you can be a doctor, you come with me."
……
Ji Wan followed the fragrant warbler and came to a cypress tree.
The warbler found a branch and knelt under the cypress tree to dig the soil.
"What do you do?" Ji Wan asked.
Xiangying wiped the sweat from her forehead.
"At the time, I didn't know that they were giving you poison, and I thought it was delicious, so I paid attention."
"Seeing Sai Fengxian throwing the medicine residue, he followed, who knows, after seeing the birds pecking at the medicine residue, he bled to death on the spot."
Xiangying's digging action was abrupt, and she hesitated to poke a branch into the dirt pit.
At the end of the stick, there was a rebound force, like ......
She threw the stick in her hand in shock, and with a white face, she desperately crawled back.
Ji Wan hurriedly asked, "What's in this?" ”
Xiangying looked at Ji Wan.
Straight eyes.
"At that time, I saw that the bird was pitiful, and it was buried here."
"Goo-"
She swallowed hard.
"I've heard that if you die of poisoning, your bones will turn black, so I want to show you its bones to prove that I'm not lying."
Speaking of this, Xiangying looked frightened in vain: "I feel like I poked the flesh ......"
Ji Wan took the wooden stick that Xiangying had discarded, squatted at the location where Xiangying was digging, and tried to dig down.
The wooden stick in his hand poked down, and immediately bounced back, this feeling......
It does feel like a poke on the flesh!
She dug a little deeper, and suddenly, a strange aroma wafted out of the dirt pit.
Ji Wan put down the wooden stick and chose to sweep away the soil with her hands.
A fairy eight-colored thrush with bright feathers was revealed.
"Ahh This is the one I buried! Xiang Ying suddenly pointed, and the fairy eight-colored thrush in the soil pit screamed.
Suddenly, the warbler was dumbfounded.
Why did the bird she buried when she was a child not change at all until now?
Ji Wan carried the lifelike, fairy eight-colored thrush and asked the fragrant warbler.
"Are you sure this is the one you planted earlier?"
Xiang Ying shook her hand and pointed to the beak of the fairy eight-colored thrush: "This bird's beak is missing, I can't be mistaken." ”
Ji Wan took a closer look, and sure enough, as the fragrant warbler said, there was a gap in the bird's beak.
But why, after eight or nine years, the carcass of birds buried in the ground will not decay?
This doesn't make sense!
Ji Wan thought while inspecting the bird corpse.
Which drug can keep the body from decomposing?
She thought about it a lot, but none of them could match the strange situation in front of her!
Ji Wan thought of the detection instrument in the space...... need
But the space needs to be upgraded before the detector can be obtained.
Ji Wan was suddenly depressed.
She frowned, and she didn't know when the space would be upgraded......
Ji Wan sighed and said to Xiangying: "I'll take this bird away, what's your brother's name?" ”
Xiangying's eyes lit up when she heard this, and she was pleasantly surprised.
"Xiangsong, my brother's name is Han Xiangsong."
Ji Wan nodded and left with the fairy eight-colored thrush.
When she came to no one's place, she threw the bird corpse into the space before walking to Xie's house.
……
"Master, do you think I'm doing it right?"
Gu Yi was in a hurry, carrying a pot of boiled rheumatism ointment, and rushed to Ji Wan, who had just entered the door.
Ji Wan picked up a stirring spoon and picked up a piece of plaster, looking at its moist and translucent color, and smelling its rich medicinal fragrance.
"Not bad." Ji Wan commented.
Gu Yiping suddenly grinned, and a big smile appeared on the baby's face.
As he was talking, Xie Xianhua entered the door.
When he saw Ji Wan come back, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief and asked.
"I heard from the village chief, did the people of Wangshui Village hit you with stones?"
"The pebble smashed by the child and missed." Ji Wan replied with a smile.
"By the way, didn't you go to the next village and persuade people not to cut down jujube trees? How did you get back? ”
Xie Xianhua sighed when he heard this, and his face was not very good.
"They said that it was impossible for the waste dates to bear fruit at this time, and they thought that we had tricked them and driven us out."
Ji Wan who used Lingquan to ripen sour jujubes: ......
"I'm thinking about coming back and picking some waste dates and showing them them."
Ji Wan thought about it and proposed.
"Why don't we let the government come forward, it just so happens that I have something to do with the prefect."
"What are you looking for?" Xie Xianhua asked casually.
Ji Wan didn't want to hide it.
"Let Han Xiangsong come out."
Han Xiangsong? Wangshui Village?
Xie Xianhua raised his eyes and glanced at Ji Wan strangely: "Why?" ”
"Oh, I'm poisoned......" Ji Wan said lightly.
"What? Poisoning? Xie Xianhua and Gu Yiping asked in unison and in horror.
