Chapter III. The sword asked Beiyan 157
After Hong Feng listened, he still seemed a little unimpressed, thinking that the third senior brother's answer was just counting his own not big or small, and he didn't know the etiquette! But when he turned his head again, and when he saw the faces of the other two, his heart began to drum!
This seventh senior brother Ding Xueyin is a withdrawn character, plus the internal injury that was hit by Urre before, he has not yet healed at this time, so his face is not good, and it is barely a forgivable thing; However, Bai Wenyan, who desperately self-destructed his image along the way, and beat Bai Wenyan, who had been nagging with a dry mouth just now, how could he be as safe as an old monk now?
Zuo Qiu Liang stared at Bai Wenyan, who was speechless, for a long time, and only after the other party nodded lightly, did he open his mouth to educate his own unsuccessful ninth junior brother. In his mind, after all, Bai Wenyan was also a Heavenly Spirit Veiner, as long as he thought that he could speak freely, even if there was a Miao Wu person sitting in front of him, this person would definitely be deaf!
If you want to eavesdrop on the wall roots of the Heavenly Spirit Veiners, how can it be so easy?
"Lao Jiu, Lao Jiu, you have been in vain for so many years! This is not Zhuhai Sword Pool, we are also in someone's lair, dare to put anything in your mouth for you? The people of Miao Wuzhai have been playing with Gu worm poison for thousands of years, so it is useless here in your Hongfeng? ”
In fact, Hong Feng's vigilance is not strong, which is also understandable. After all, this Miao Wu Village is the hometown of Urge, and now there is Bai Wenyan, the 'second master' by his side, even if the sky really falls, there are these big ones on their back, and it is never his turn to worry about a wounded person;
However, this Miao Wu Village, in the eyes of Zuo Qiuliang and others, is by no means such a quiet and beautiful paradise as in front of them!
Just now, Bai Wenyan stood on the rushing water surface of the Hanging Spring Waterfall, and just wanted to drink a handful of water, but was stopped by the little aunt in time! You must know that the little aunt was still playing with Hong Feng at that time, even if Yu Guang caught a glimpse of Bai Wenyan's movements, it was absolutely impossible for the reaction speed to be so fast!
So such a wake-up and rapid reaction speed proves that although this middle-aged girl has been playing with Hong Feng on the surface; But in fact, she has at least eighty percent of her attention, all of which is secretly on Bai Wenyan's body!
Secondly, just now she communicated with the middle-aged woman in the ancient language of Miao Wu, although the specific content of the conversation between the two, he Zuo Qiuliang still had no way of knowing, but everyone could hear it, this little aunt who was still a little stammering, after changing to the ancient language of Miao Wu, whether it was the pronunciation of the words or the rhythm of the sentence breaks, it was extremely clear and smooth, and there was no sign of stuttering at all.
Since Zuo Qiuliang is not familiar with the details of stuttering, he does not dare to conclude whether switching languages can make such a huge difference! But was the conversation between the two of them translated by the beautiful woman? To put it mildly, even if the two of them are talking about murder and arson, they can only listen to it as a treat and a gift!
Look at the so-called witch medicine in your hand, and then think about the Gu worms that may really exist in the water source and diet, which suspicion is not a hidden killing machine, and which step is not extremely dangerous? Take the Wanhua tea in front of everyone, in addition to the raw materials on the surface, is there anything else? Even if there is no problem with the raw materials, it is nothing new to combine several non-toxic flowers and plants together to produce highly poisonous! Even the orthodox medicine of the Northern Yan Dynasty, the way of Qihuang, also has the saying of eighteen antis and nineteen fears; What's more, now they are still facing the famous Miao Wu woman?
Hong Feng is not a brainless person, and after listening to the explanation of the senior brother in charge, he also came back to his senses a little: yes, although the little aunt looks like she is only thirteen or fourteen years old, according to Urge, she is now in her thirties......
If it is placed in a small household in a remote mountainous area, a woman of her age can already be a grandmother......
The bamboo building where everyone is located is about seven miles away from the waterfall, and the sound of flowing water in the ears is not only not noisy, but also has the effect of calming the mind. Now everyone in the bamboo house has not touched the Wanhua tea in front of them, and they are all quietly waiting for the arrival of the natal golden silkworm......
About half an hour passed, Bai Wenyan suddenly let out a light cough, squeezed his eyebrows at everyone in the room, and then opened his mouth to break the quiet atmosphere in the room:
"Ahem! Lao Zuo, don't say that I rely on the old and sell the old, you think about it yourself, what is this thing they do! Tea before eating, is this a welcome or a thank you? Our stomachs are all empty, and if we drink this tea, won't we all have to be beaten through? I see, these little ladies must be making fun of a few of us, so they don't have any good intentions? ”
After saying a grumbling word, everyone also heard a silver bell ringing in their ears, it turned out that the little grandma was back! After the two of them entered the house, looking at the deliberate apologies on their faces, it was obvious that they had listened to Bai Wenyan's complaints......
"I'm really sorry for you, it's me Miao Wuzhai who was careless and neglected a few. Now that the wine and dinner are ready, after this little prince has taken the Ancestor of your Natal Golden Silkworm, all the distinguished guests can sit down to eat......"
When Bai Wenyan heard this, his heart was full of disdain: for nearly an hour before and after, he didn't hear any sound of cooking at all, so why talk about having all the wine and rice?
After finishing speaking, the little grandmother also bowed apologetically, then took on the silk gloves, took out an inconspicuous small clay pot, and walked towards the unconscious Shen Gui......
She first observed carefully for a while, then carefully turned Shen Gui over, and then stretched out her big finger and quickly wiped it along the mouth of the can...... It didn't take long for everyone to see a chubby worm, lazily rubbing out the clay pot, and arching it to Shen Gui's chest very slowly.
This golden silkworm is about the length of an adult man's thumb, but its body is fat enough, at least as thick as a wine cup! It slowly crawled to Shen Gui's mouth, squeezed open its tightly closed lips with its head, and plunged into Shen Gui's mouth without hesitation......
"After the golden silkworm enters the abdomen, it will chase and devour the poison in the body of this son; After that, the little guy will also use all the remaining strength to try his best to repair the damaged meridians in his body. However, although the golden silkworm can detoxify all kinds of poisons, it is not something that can be completed in a moment and a half. Since you are hungry now, how about I wait to eat first in the time of this and others? ”
After Bai Wenyan heard the woman's words, he immediately slapped his thigh excitedly:
"It's long overdue!"
"Old fairy, don't worry, I don't know if you have already taken the witch medicine I gave to this old man? There are many unknown poisonous insects and beasts near our Miaowu Village, and if you don't take medicine, it is easy to introduce the small insects that live in food and water into your body......"
Hearing this, Zuo Qiuliang also took out the bamboo tube from his arms and carefully poured a pill into his hand. It is this witch medicine, which is said to have the effect of repelling insects and avoiding Gu.
It is a medium-sized pill, about the size of a thumb nail; It has a dark brown appearance and a strong aroma of wormwood. Judging by this taste alone, this medicine should contain a lot of wormwood, which should have a strong insect repellent effect......
"No hurry, no hurry! Senior Brother Fang Cai asked me to guess the recipe of your Miao Wu Baihua Tea; Unfortunately, the old man's knowledge is too shallow, and he really doesn't dare to make judgments; But speaking of this witch medicine, the old man is quite interested in making a guess, if there is anything wrong or missing, I hope the two of you will not hesitate to give you advice in person..."
After finishing speaking, Zuo Qiuliang stood up, took out a pill with two fingers, ignored the two Miao witch women whose faces began to look ugly, and said to himself:
"Although this medicine smells fragrant, judging from the smell, it is quite similar to wormwood commonly used to repel insects; But if the old man is not mistaken, the main ingredient of this pill is definitely not wormwood, but an herb that tastes extremely similar to wormwood, called scorpion tiger grass. As for the auxiliary medicine, the old man didn't dare to speculate, but at least there are a series of insect repellent herbs such as three-point red, fairy grass, ghost needle, nightshade, ground wire, scorpion, verbena and so on, which are absolutely infallible......"
When the middle-aged woman in charge of the translation heard this, she immediately changed her look of admiration:
"I didn't expect to be a senior and proficient in the way of Qihuang! Although due to the restrictions of the clan rules, I cannot reveal the secrets of the witch formula; But at least I can tell you with certainty that the judgment of the predecessors is accurate! However, this witch medicine is originally intended to repel insects and avoid Gu, is there anything wrong with using these medicinal materials that can repel insects? ”
Zuo Qiu Liang smiled and put this pill on the table:
"The problem lies in the selection of the main drug! Wormwood, a plant, is far more than several times or even dozens of times more expensive than scorpion tiger grass in terms of insect repellent effect, compatibility with other medicinal properties, and even its extremely low price. It's no secret that this medicine uses scorpion grass instead of wormwood? After thinking about it, the old man only thought of one reason...... Although the insect repellent effect of this scorpion tiger grass is far inferior to wormwood, its medicinal properties, or toxicity, are several times higher than that of wormwood! ”
As soon as the woman heard Zuo Qiuliang's speculation, an angry look immediately appeared on her face, and there was a slight disdain in her eyes......
"Didn't the predecessors think that the anthelmintic drugs that our Miao Wuzhai gave to you are all poisonous ......"
"Of course, I also know that even if this pill is ten times larger, with just a little bit of scorpion tiger grass, it will not be harmful to people at all. Therefore, the old man judged that the main reason why you chose to use scorpion tiger grass instead of wormwood is that this pill is not for people to eat at all! ”
As soon as the words fell, Bai Wenyan and Ding Xue stood up with a sigh of drinking; And Zuo Qiu Liang gently broke the pill on the table under the gaze of the two Miao witch women......
I saw that among the pills that were separated by him, there was a black multi-legged worm curled up!
"You say it's a magic medicine that repels insects and repels Gu; But in the eyes of someone on the left, I'm afraid it's more like the rations of this little worm, right? ”
