Chapter 083: Insect Soup
"Grass Ghost Lady......" Huang Zhiting thought for a while and said: "This saying came from the Biyuan area a long, long time ago, when the Miao people, Yao people, etc., called the women who could use Gu as the grass ghost woman. Later, I don't know when, there was a very powerful Gu energy person among the Yao people, this person was a woman, she was almost sixty years old when she became famous, she went to various Yao villages to discuss with the Gu masters, and finally the Yao people in Guangxi Zhuzhai all admired her ability to use Gu, so they called her the grass ghost wife.
Because the grass ghost lady is proficient in one hundred and eight Gu throughout the ages, she is the most powerful person in the Yao people who use Gu, so later the Yao people in each village agreed that the grass ghost woman selected the heirs from each village. The first generation of the grass ghost lady once left a rule, her heirs must abandon the mortal desires and serve the Gu for life, so only the woman who has refined the Taishang Heart Gu can have the opportunity to become the next grass ghost woman. ”
"Oh!" Gao pragmatic suddenly realized.
Huang Zhiting looked at him with a smile: "Aren't you disappointed?" ”
"Huh?" Gao pragmatic was inexplicable: "What do I have to be disappointed in? ”
Huang Zhiting said with a regretful face: "I thought you cared so much about Sister Ali, what kind of intentions did you have." Having said that, she has been carefully paying attention to the change in Gao Shishi's expression.
"Cut ......" Gao pragmatic rolled his eyes: "Not to mention the rules and beliefs of other people, even if they don't, they don't dare to bring such a woman full of Gu worms home." ”
"That's a pity, I heard that ......," Huang Zhiting said, as if she had lost her words, and hurriedly stopped her mouth.
Gao pragmatic looked skeptical: "What did you hear?" ”
"Nothing, nothing." Huang Zhiting waved her hand again and again, and then didn't give Gao Pragmatic a chance to ask again, and said decisively: "I have to go tomorrow, I have to go back to sleep." After saying that, he turned around and ran away.
Gao was speechless for a while, but thinking about it, it seems that there is nothing wrong with him, and it seems that it is not safe for a person to be so far away from Yaozhai - there are mountains everywhere, and the grass is dense, maybe he will step on a snake with a casual step, and now that Huang Zhiting, who is not afraid of snakes and insects, is gone, it is better for him to go back earlier.
Nothing was said all night.
Early in the morning of the second day, Huang Zhiting came to Gao Pragmatic and urged him to leave quickly.
Gao Pragmatic didn't want to waste time enjoying Yaozhai Farmhouse here, so he naturally hit it off, and the two went hand in hand to find Tianchanggong to resign.
When I arrived at Tianchanggong's house, it happened that Ah Li was also there. However, maybe what Ah Li wanted to say to Gao Shishi had already been said yesterday, and today she came to Tianchanggong to obviously wait for Huang Zhiting.
After Huang Zhiting expressed his intentions, Tian Changgong expressed his intention to stay as usual, of course Huang Zhiting couldn't take it seriously, and repeatedly expressed his gratitude, emphasizing that he still had important things to do when he returned to "Zhongzhou", and Tian Changgong had to agree.
Then Ah Li got up and sent something to Huang Zhiting, saying that it was her token, and she would not be stopped from walking in Yaozhai all over Guangxi, Huang Zhiting happily accepted it, and said some words of thanks with some emotion.
Ah Li just listened quietly, except for a slight hint of warmth in her eyes, she really didn't have any emotions at all. However, Gao Pragmatic noticed that the cinnabar red color in the pear eye today is much lighter than yesterday, and it does not mean so bright.
When it was time to leave, Ah Li suddenly stopped Gao Shishi and said: "Zhang Gongzi, although you have a heroic spirit, but ordinary snakes and insects can't recognize this heroic spirit, since you are a friend of Zhiting's sister, I will give you something, you drink it now." ”
Gao was stunned, and was about to ask what it was, but saw a Miao girl next to him holding a small crockpot, Ah Li took the crockpot, opened the lid on the top of the can, looked inside seriously, and closed her eyes and smelled it, as if she was distinguishing something.
Then Ah Li took out a small wooden bottle from her waist, poured out a crimson pill the size of a fingernail from it and threw it into the crockpot, shook it gently, handed the crockpot to Gao Shishi, and said, "Drink it." ”
Although Gao Pragmatic knew that the meaning of this Ali girl was not something he refused at the moment, he still couldn't help but ask: "...... this thing?"
"It can avoid snake and insect poison, and it is a little stronger than what Sister Zhiting drinks."
Well, Miss Ali spoke directly and not tactfully at all.
Gao Shishi was taken aback, and said in his heart: It turns out that Miss Huang can avoid snakes and insects because she drank medicine? I thought she had practiced some unique skills, so I was too embarrassed to ask. However, is the content in this crockpot so powerful, could it be that after drinking it, it will be as poisonous as Duan Yu eating the reckless Zhu clam?
He felt that this question was very important and quickly asked it.
Ah Li looked at him very strangely, as if wondering why he was so stupid, but when he said a sentence, it was the tone of emotionlessness: "About a hundred days, you can avoid snakes and insects, and it will be invalid for a long time." ”
But she seemed to feel Gao Shishi's momentary disappointment, and added: "Unless you can drink a cup every morning for more than three years, then it will be like Sister Zhiting, which contains an insect avoidance pill in your body." In this way, you can be protected from snakes and insects for almost your life. ”
Gao Pragmatic wanted to say, "Then you give me the prescription, I'll go back and make it myself", but as soon as he saw the eyes of Ali girl Gujing Wubo, he swallowed back this sentence again.
He didn't dare to say much at the moment, and honestly drank the contents of the crockpot. He originally thought that the contents should be like a decoction, but who knew that it was unusually thick, like drinking porridge, but what was even more unexpected was that the "porridge" was not so bitter to drink as he imagined, but only slightly bitter, but had a strange fragrance.
After he finished drinking the porridge, Ah Li nodded, glanced at Huang Zhiting, and turned to leave.
Huang Zhiting and Gao Shishi said goodbye to the eldest father, and after walking not far, Huang Zhiting couldn't help but say: "Sister Ali seems to be really different from you." ”
Gao was stunned: "How can you see it?" Is it because of that bowl of porridge just now? ”
"Porridge?" Huang Zhiting said angrily: "That's insect soup, this girl drank it for a few years when she was a child, and she was about to vomit." ”
Gao Shishi was surprised: "But I think it tastes good." ”
"Hmph, that's what's strange about this girl." Huang Zhiting frowned and said: "Insect soup is not an ordinary thing, in Guangxi, in addition to those who make poison Gu, there are also several of our major toast families have their own recipes, but they can only avoid poisonous insects." But the insect soup you just drank was different...... In other words, because after Sister Ah Li added that pill, it was different. ”
Gao pragmatically said: "What's the difference? Isn't it only for 100 days? ”
"That medicine is only available to the grass ghost woman, what do you say is the difference?" Huang Zhiting glanced at him and said, "That medicine can't be obtained no matter how rich you are...... It can avoid any Gu worms. ”
Gao pragmatic was surprised and delighted: "Then I won't be afraid of Gu in the future?" ”
"Are you dreaming?" Huang Zhiting was laughed at by him: "Insect avoidance soup can only be managed for a hundred days, if you take a pill, you will avoid Gu for the rest of your life, what do you want?" I estimate that the duration of this pill is about 100 days at most. ”
Even so, Gao Pragmatic was not disappointed much, anyway, it was an unexpected joy, and he smiled: "That's not bad, at least in the past 100 days, it is considered a hundred poisons to be invasive, and it feels powerful when you think about it." ”
Huang Zhiting glanced at him and whispered: "If you are willing to stay in Siming Mansion, I, I can also prepare insect soup for you, drink it for a few years, and you will not be afraid of snakes and insects in your life." ”
"This ......" Gao Shishi regretted greatly, how long he could stay in Guangxi, this matter was not up to him at all.
Huang Zhiting saw that he refused to answer, so she was disappointed, lowered her head and stopped talking, but silently led the way in front of her head.
Gao Pragmatic didn't know what to say, so he had to follow behind her, and he couldn't help but sigh in his heart, and said secretly: This Huang girl seems to really believe that I can let her family get rid of this situation of being remembered by the court, and she is bent on wooing me, but unfortunately I really can't stay...... It seems that I have to hurry up this year, and I have to try to help her.
