Chapter 10 It wasn't as warm as it is now

Chen Gong and the others were appointed, and they each retired and went to work on official business.

Lu Bu was escorted by several guards to the backyard.

When he arrived at Diao's residence, as soon as he entered the door, he saw a maid hiding in the corner with a small bowl.

The maid's fingers twitched rapidly in her mouth, and she would pull them out every few times.

She was too focused on gargling, and she didn't notice Lu Bu.

A guard wanted to step forward and ask, but Lu Bu waved his hand.

The maid who only cared about rinsing her mouth washed her mouth, and as soon as she turned around, she saw Lu Bu standing at the place where she had just entered the door and looking at her.

Taken aback, the maid hurriedly threw away the bowl and knelt down.

Thinking that she had caused a big disaster, she trembled and said, "The slave didn't see the general......"

"I'm not going to blame you." Lu Bu asked, "You also use green salt for gargling?" ”

There are not many days in this era, and Lu Bu also used green salt to rinse his mouth.

Although salty green salt can clean teeth, the taste is much worse than that of toothpaste in later generations.

When Cao's army besieged the city, he only cared about retreating from the enemy and did not pay much attention to the details of life.

Now that Cao Jun has retired, he is thinking about how to earn more money for military expenses, and his eyes suddenly light up when he sees the maid rinsing his mouth.

In the era of relatively backward technology, no one has ever used toothpaste, not even toothbrushes.

People can only rinse their mouths by applying green salt to their fingers to clean their mouths.

Green salt can clean the mouth, but it will not have the refreshing feeling of toothpaste, and the cleaning effect will be poor.

The maid thought that he was blaming him for wasting green salt, and replied tremblingly: "The slave will never dare to ...... again."

"Get up, I don't mean to blame you." Although the maid did not answer directly, Lu Bu had already gotten the answer she wanted, and walked to Diao Chan's room with her feet raised.

It wasn't until he entered the house that the maid kneeling in the courtyard breathed a sigh of relief.

She wanted to stand up, but found that her legs were weak and couldn't support her body.

Entering the room, Lu Bu did not see Diao Chan.

He turned and walked out again.

The maid, who was standing up, heard him ask, "Where is Madame?" ”

Spirited shivered, and the maid bowed her head and replied, "Madame is by the pond in the back garden." ”

After receiving the answer, Lu Bu walked out of the small courtyard.

When he came to the door, he instructed the guards: "Send someone to get some herbs, I will be of great use." ”

The maid who rinsed his mouth with green salt gave him a hint that if there was an item that replaced green salt to clean his mouth, it would be very popular once it was put on the market.

The recipe for toothpaste was too complex and required a variety of ingredients that could only be obtained through chemical synthesis, and he had not been able to get his hands on it at the moment.

However, that doesn't mean he can't make toothpaste.

Although there are no synthetic materials, there are many herbs scattered all over the mountains.

By finding the right herbal formula, he was able to create the most primitive toothpaste.

"Dare to ask the general, what herbs do you need?" One of the guards asked.

"Willow branches, acacia branches, mulberry branches, and some ginger and ......fine spices," Lu Bu said twenty or thirty in one breath.

Although the guards don't know how to read, their memory is good.

It's hard for him, twenty or thirty kinds of herbs are actually remembered in his mind.

After reporting the name of the herb, Lu Bu said: "Help me hire a few more doctors, and let them come to my residence at night, I have important matters to discuss with them." ”

The guards who had been ordered to buy herbs and ask for a doctor retreated, and Lu Bu walked in the direction of the pond with a few other guards.

Not far from the pond he saw a man sitting on the shore, and behind him stood a low-browed maid.

The man sitting on the edge of the pond curled up on his knees, holding his cheeks and looking at the water as if he were contemplating something.

Her figure is slender, and the outline of her back is as soft as water waves.

Except for Diao Chan, Lu Bu has never seen any woman with such soft curves.

Motioning for the guard to stop, he walked over alone.

Seeing him coming, the maid hurriedly bowed.

Lu Bu stopped her greeting as she was about to exit.

Gazing at the pond, every time Diao Chan blinked her eyes, her long eyelashes would tremble slightly, like two colorful butterflies dancing on the bright moon, adding a bit of tenderness to her country.

The clear pool water and her clear eyes reflect each other, and her eyes are like two sweet pools, which make people want to take a handful and savor it.

Lu Bu was about to speak, and Diao Chan sighed leisurely, as if he had a very heavy mind.

"Madame!" Lu Bu opened his mouth: "Is there something bothering?" ”

Hearing him speak, Diao Chan hurriedly got up.

Shi Shiran bowed, and she said, "I'm not worried, I'm just worried about my husband's ......."

"I have nothing to worry about." Lu Bu smiled calmly: "Cao Cao has withdrawn his troops, and the siege of Xiapi has been lifted, and from today on, no one can threaten us." ”

"Although the siege of Xiapi has been lifted, has Kefujun ever thought that Xuzhou is surrounded by strong enemies." Diao Chan said: "When the husband was trapped, he asked Yuan Shu for help, but he refused to send troops in every possible way. My husband has attacked Yuan Shu before, and I think he will send troops to Xuzhou sooner or later. ”

"It's also a good thing that Yuan Shu refuses to send troops, so that I can have an excuse to beat him." Hugging Diao Chan's waist, Lu Bu said: "If he really sends troops to save me, it will be treacherous for me to beat him again." But he didn't give me a chance to bear the notoriety, and it was only a matter of time before he beat him. ”

"Even if Yuan Shu can't do anything to her husband, Cao Cao can always get into her husband's eyes." Diao Chan said worriedly: "Although he left this time, he will still come next time......"

"Next time he comes back, Xuzhou will not be the same as before." The hand on Diao Chan's waist moved down a little, and Lu Bu said: "It's not difficult to reverse the disadvantage, just like the hand I hold you, as long as you move the position, you will have a different feeling." ”

Looking at Lu Bu blankly, Diao Chan didn't understand what he meant.

"My hand was just wrapped around your waist, and it felt soft and refreshing." Blinking at her with a wicked smile on his face, Lu Bu said: "I moved my hand down for half a minute, and the place where I touched it became full of rebound, tightness and fun, and the taste was completely different from hugging my waist." ”

Lu Bu started the analogy by teasing, Diao Chan covered his mouth and smiled lightly: "When did the husband learn not to be serious?" ”

"As I said earlier, seriousness is for others to see." Holding Diao Chan's hand slightly, Lu Bu took her into his arms: "You and I are husband and wife, there is no place on my body that you haven't seen." There's nothing inside or outside you that I haven't explored. When the husband and wife get along alone, is it difficult to put on a sanctimonious appearance? ”

"Since Wei Xu and others mutinied, Fujun is very different from before." Snuggled in Lu Bu's arms, Diao Chan's cheek was close to his heart: "The former husband was not good at words, and after being forced to leave Chang'an by Li Dao and Guo Yan, everything was always held in my heart, and I was as cold as water, not as warm as it is now......"
