A tired white dove landed on a stout, sturdy arm. The middle-aged man, who was dressed as a coachman, quickly untied the bamboo tube that tied the pigeon's legs, and gently unfolded a note full of fly's heads:

"Eucommia, gastrodia, and angelica each have three coins; three red dates, twelve summer berries; Astragalus and Codonopsis each have one and a half dollars, and six bowls of water are boiled into two bowls. Then add two coins of ripe aconite, old ginger slices, tangerine peel, white pepper, bergamot, cat's eye grass, and sand kernels, add water to full, simmer into three bowls, and turn to martial fire for 100 breaths. ”

It seems that Lu Qingxiu, who is a ghost hand, likes to pretend to be a scholar, and he is not a vassal elegance. This note, which is only one finger wide, he can actually write a complete prescription, the handwriting is so small, he almost blinded the eyes of the black dog!

Although the black dog is an old man, he doesn't know the way of Qihuang. So he read this prescription several times, except for red dates and tangerine peel, he didn't know any other medicinal materials at all, let alone what kind of disease this prescription corresponded to.

Yesterday, Guan Beidou had just crossed the Yu River, probably suffering a little wind chill on the water, and as soon as he entered the Fengling Gudu camp, the people completely collapsed. Considering this prescription, Heigou doesn't seem to be any important information, so it's better to let Guan Beidou rest more, and then go to someone who understands to inquire.

So he copied it again, and took it to the military medic to solve the puzzle.

"Well... Respect this prescription, the pharmacology is unclear, the medicinal properties are conflicting, forgive the old and the decay is not proficient, and it is impossible to break the truth in it. ”

As soon as the black dog heard this, he immediately squeezed his brows into a ball. He asked no less than a dozen military medical officers one after another, but all of them were surprisingly consistent; Either he was vague, or he was completely confused, and he didn't even have a clue to give a clue. And the medical chief in front of him, who was about sixty years old, was already the last person he could find:

"Oh? Is this recipe so profound? Even Doctor Li can't understand it? ”

"No, this recipe is plain, and it is the most common medicinal material, and it can't talk about the word esoteric at all. It's just that the first turn of this medicine is for the purpose of raising yang energy; The medicinal materials and processing methods of the second turn are mainly based on warm supplements and pain relief. The properties of the two turns before and after are incompatible, although they do not clash with each other and turn poison, but they cancel each other out, and they become an urn of waste medicine. To put it simply, it's a waste of time. Therefore, according to the old conjecture, if this prescription is not copied incorrectly, it is placed by the evil doctor in order to delay the illness and seek huge profits. ”

The black dog didn't know much about it, but he also knew what it meant to "waste time". It's just that although Lu Qingxiu's handwriting is small, it is written cleanly and clearly, and after transcribing it himself, he has also double-checked it three times, and there is no possibility of transcription error.

"Doctor Li, I probably understand what you mean. But according to your experience, could this be a recipe written by people who don't understand the way of medicine, and want to use this method to secretly understand military intelligence? ”

"Probably not. Although the pharmacology of this prescription is conflicting, the way of Qihuang is broad and profound, and even the naughty children on the street have heard of the "eighteen anti-nineteen fears". Don't talk about a layman, even if the old man wants to make up a non-toxic, harmless and useless waste recipe out of thin air, it is not an easy task......"

After the black dog got this final reply, he was still unwilling. According to his thoughts, although Lu Qingxiu came from the Bashu ghost hand, he was an out-and-out reckless man; But this son is very ambitious, and he is clean and spicy, and he has never made such a mistake.

His first pigeon letter was passed to him, and the biggest obstacle to the Qin army's northward movement - Xu Ronghuan, the big head moved; This is his second pigeon letter, so it will never be so perfunctory!

In desperation, he could only take a bowl of pumpkin porridge and a plate of pickles, and came to Guan Beidou's tent.

"Fourth...... Ahem...... Come, sit here. ”

Guan Beidou didn't know when he woke up, and before the black dog entered the tent, he was lying on the couch and staring at the top of the tent in a daze; Now seeing that the black dog was full of apologies, he hurriedly tightened the quilt and let it in, beckoning the black dog to sit on the edge of the bed and talk.

"Whew...... Call...... This porridge is really thick, and the pumpkin is also soft and glutinous and sweet, not bad. When I finished breakfast, I asked the military doctor to decoction a dose of dispelling wind and powder, covered my sweat, and slept well, so that I could relax my spirits tomorrow. As soon as this person is old, his body bones are prone to problems......"

Guan Beidou drank hot porridge while nagging some homely words to the black dog; And the black dog saw that the third brother was in a good mood, and took out the prescription from the placket of his clothes in time.

"Third brother, this is a pigeon letter from Lu Qingxiu's kid, but I asked all the military medical officers, but no one could tell why. I can't help it, I can only come to you. ”

Guan Beidou nodded while blowing porridge and said:

"Let's put it there first, and then we'll see after drinking the porridge. Fourth, you sent Lu Qingxiu to Youbei Third Road, but it may not be a good move. ”

"Third brother, that's what I think. Although the Northern Yan Army seems to be vulnerable, after all, the territory is vast and densely populated, and it is difficult for me to completely digest it for a while; And the three roads in the north seem to be brave soldiers, with one heart and one mind, and they are tightly pricked; But a rat in the ascending phase is still a mouse, and it will not be more difficult to deal with than a dying elephant after all. And as long as one of the two of them falls first, the other will be self-defeating; So I think that compared with the huge Northern Yan Dynasty, it is still easier to start with the Youbei Third Road......"

"The vision is far-sighted enough, the timing of the action is also very good, and the practicality is also very high, but I still go back to the sentence just now...... Ahem...... It's a wrong move. ”

Guan Beidou turned his head to look at the black dog, only to see that he bowed his head and was silent, obviously not convinced.

"Fourth, you don't know the terrain of the heavens, and you don't believe in numerology and luck, so although you have never refuted the words of the third brother, you may not be able to really understand it. Why did I arrange Qilin Jun in Guo Xing's department, and I personally sat in charge of the Qin army? It's very simple, the way to break the game is not in Youbei Third Road, and it can even be said that if Huayu Continent is regarded as a whole, Youbei Third Road is a dead door! Of course, Qilinjun will be fine, and his Yangshou will have more than forty years...... Oh yes, don't tell him about it, it's going to be a blessing! ”

"Yes...... But didn't you also say that he Guo Xing still has a period of emperor life? ”

"Yes, that's what I said. But it doesn't mean that he can do it! ”

"Third brother...... I...... I didn't get it. ”

Guan Beidou didn't continue to explain, but put down the empty porridge bowl, picked up the letter and looked at it:

"Huh? Interesting...... It's a bit weird......"

"Yes, after Doctor Li saw it, he also said that this recipe is extremely weird......"

"Is Lu Qingxiu's manuscript still there?"

"I have swallowed it according to the rules of listening."

Guan Beidou didn't ask any more, just frowned tightly and looked at the mystery in the prescription repeatedly. After about half an hour passed, Guan Beidou looked stunned, and then turned hesitant again, raised his hand and pointed to the pen and ink on the table and said:

"Fourth, give me a ...... to study ink"

About a moment later, a small-eyed man with an apron tied around his waist opened the curtain and walked in:

"Salute the Great Army, Salute the Master of the Prison Army......"

"Good...... Ahem...... Okay, fourth, get a pier for the master and let him sit down and watch ......"

This was originally the leader of the second chef of the restaurant, and he thanked him nervously. He took the two pieces of paper handed by the black dog, and after reversing them a few times, he scratched his head embarrassedly:

"I have to trouble the prison master, I can't read......"

"Okay, I'll read it to you......"

A letter is divided into two papers, and the black dog is also divided into two sheets and reads them in turn; After hearing this, the master scratched his stomach with his fat hand with oil flowers, and said with a little hesitation:

"The first recipe read by the old man of the prison army, there is nothing new, just find a Minjiang or Youbei chef to know, this is the base of the dog meat pot, or the most common practice. As for the second formula, I'm a little unsure......"

As soon as the black dog heard this, he immediately pulled out the second turn of the recipe and looked at it repeatedly, but still didn't see any clues. He had no choice but to read it again, and continued to look at the gang leader:

"What about this time? Remember something? ”

"Actually, this second recipe is nothing unusual, it is also the base of the dog meat pot; It's just that the former side is to nourish yang and replenish qi, and the latter side is to warm the stomach and dissipate stasis. But the strange thing is that there are obviously two more spices in the latter side, and I can't figure out whether I remembered it wrong, or if it was the unique secret recipe of another faction? ”

"What's more?"

"Cat's eye grass, sand kernel."

Hearing this, the black dog looked back at Guan Beidou, who was smiling and silent:

"Dog meat casserole...... As the so-called "one black, two white, three flowers and four yellows", Lao Tzu called it a black dog...... Did he see through the connection between Lu Qingxiu and me, and wrote two recipes for dog meat claypot to ridicule me? ”

Guan Beidou nodded, then shook his head, and said to him uncertainly:

"The Heavenly Technique is useless to him, so I can't say it well. However, I'm afraid he's the only one who would do such a boring thing. ”

Whether Shen Gui's move is boring or not, I'm afraid only Zhou Changan can make a fair evaluation. Because on the original of the letter, he caught the words "sand, cat" with obvious differences.

Since Shen Gui knew that the old cat's trip had already been fascinated, how could he not guard against him in advance? Since someone releases an eagle, there must be someone waiting to collect the prey; Poisoning the prey in other people's traps has long been a "dead hand" played by the hunters; Shen Gui, who grew up at the foot of Taibai Mountain since he was a child, doesn't use this trick to harm others, it is already a good thing to thank God and accumulate virtue and do good!

What's more, his hand not only saved Zhou Chang'an's life; It also made Qi Yan follow the vine and keep up with Lu Qingxiu, who sneaked into the third road in Youbei!

As for writing down the recipe for the dog meat pot on the letter, which was used to mock the black dog's behavior......

It's really boring.
