On the third day of entering the deep mountains, Zhao Shuo and his entourage were all disgraced and embarrassed. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info his clothes were scratched by tree branches, and it was the end of May, the weather was hot, and the humidity in the mountains and forests was heavy, so it was not that someone fell from heat stroke.

Fortunately, the surrounding trees are enough, and the simple stretcher is constantly being made under the guidance of Zhao Shuo.

It's just that as the number of people suffering from heat stroke increases, the marching speed of Zhao Shuo and his party has become slower and slower.

"Lord, if you go on like this, ......" Fluttershy wiped her sweat with one hand and supported Zhao Shuo with the other, saying that she was holding it, but it was actually more like pulling Zhao Shuo's arm and moving forward with Zhao Shuo's strength.

"It's good to keep going, just climb over this mountain." Take care of the encouragement.

Having said that, Zhao Shuo's heart is not at the bottom. Because of the Qinling Mountains, in his impression, it is composed of many mountain ranges, and after turning over this mountain, no one knows if there will be a mountain range waiting for them next.

"Lord Wang, do you taste this?" Zhang Chujiu wiped his sweat and ran over excitedly. "What the soldiers discovered, although it tasted a little astringent, it tasted okay."

Zhang Chujiu said, licking his lips, looking unfinished. Obviously, he had tasted this thing before.

Zhao Shuo took it and looked at it, it was a small oval ball, about five or six centimeters, curious, put it in his mouth and bit it gently, the astringent taste made him have endless aftertaste.

What does it taste like? Good student familiarity! Zhao Shuo licked his lips a few times, and then threw the other half of his hand into his mouth.

After chewing it, Zhao Shuo's light flickered seriously, and he finally remembered this familiar taste.

"Haha......" Zhao Shuo laughed and grabbed Zhang Chujiu. On the ninth day of the first month, where did this thing come from, take me there immediately. ”

Zhao Shuo's face was excited, Zhang Chujiu didn't make any stops, and took Zhao Shuocao away and ran over.

Zhang Chujiu didn't know where this thing was collected, so he returned to the front army and found the soldier who found it, and the three of them rushed into the mountains together.

There was not much time, and under the leadership of the soldiers, the place of collection was quickly found.

Looking at the scene in front of him, the corners of Zhao Shuo's mouth rose. "That's it, finally found."

"Lord Wang, this, what is this?" Zhang Chujiu asked with some confusion.

"Hops! That's a good thing. Zhao Shuo said with a smile.

"Hops?" Zhang Chujiu scratched his head, because he hadn't stopped the name at all.

"Go, let the soldiers who can still move, be full of search for this thing, it will be of great use in the future." Zhao Shuo said excitedly.

"Yes!" Although I don't know what this hop is for, but it can make Zhao Shuo so excited, Zhang Chujiu knows that this must be a good thing.

Soon, all the soldiers who suffered from heat stroke rested in place, and those who could still move began to act.

Zhao Shuo smiled, played with hops, and returned to the place where the soldiers rested.

In addition to the soldiers who suffered from heat stroke, there were only four people left, Feng Gonggong, Xiao Fluttershy, Yan Wu, and Mu Chun, and the rest of the people who were able to move went out to collect hops, including Zhang Chujiu. The task given to him by Zhao Shuo was to look at it a little, and not to let the soldiers eat up the hops he collected.

"Lord Wang, what kind of good thing can make you so excited?" Fluttershy asks bluntly.

As soon as she asked, Gonggong Feng, Yan Wu, Mu Chun and the surrounding soldiers all surrounded her.

"This thing, it's a good thing." Zhao Shuotuo held the hops in his hand. "In the future, it will help us make a lot of money."

"What the hell is this?" Gonggong Feng looked at it for a while, but he didn't see anything special about the hops, and asked suspiciously.

Zhao Shuo ignored Gonggong Feng and looked at Mu Chun. "Brewing Ambassador, what do you think of this thing?"

Mu Chun, who was still unsure of this official position, twitched the corners of his mouth a few times, and then took the hops from Zhao Shuo's hand.

After looking left and right, he frowned. "Lord Wang, this is a kind of plant fruit in the mountains, forgive my subordinates for being incompetent, I don't understand what the prince means."

Zhao Shuo shook his head and sighed. "You're a winemaking ambassador! This thing is for you to see, and naturally you will be able to make wine with it. ”

"Winemaking?" Mu Chun was stunned. "Take this thing."

"Exactly, it's called hops, and it's a great material for brewing." Zhao Shuo explained. "When we settle down and collect enough malt, add water and ferment it, we can form a new wine."

Speaking of this, Zhao Shuo raised his head slightly and said with endless aftertaste. "It's a low-alcohol alcohol drink full of carbon dioxide, known as 'liquid bread', and it can be counted as a drink. This kind of is not easy to get drunk, and drinking a small amount is beneficial to the body. It's really a must-have for summer and dinner. ”

When Zhao Shuo had endless memories, the surrounding Feng Gonggong and others and soldiers were all blindfolded. What carbon dioxide, liquid bread, they don't even know what it is.

But Zhao Shuo's yearning expression made them full of expectations for this wine.

"Lord Wang, is there really such a thing?" Mu Chun usually likes to drink, so he wiped the corners of his mouth at this moment, and asked with his eyes shining.

"It's up to you." Zhao Shuo pointed at Mu Chun. "The king of materials has already told you, as for how to do it, you can do it yourself."

Speaking of this, Zhao Shuo rubbed his nose. "However, this king's words first explain that after this wine is made, it must be sent to this king first."

As soon as Zhao Shuo's words came out, the surrounding Feng Gonggong and others and soldiers all laughed.

In the days that followed, the army marched even more slowly, advancing only a few hundred meters each day, and the soldiers who could move were busy looking for hops. And Zhao Shuo took Yan Wu and others to look around for some well-known Chinese medicine.

As for how to treat heat stroke, Zhao Shuo and Ben didn't know, because they used to drink so-and-so righteous qi water directly. But to let him do it, obviously, is too embarrassing.

Fortunately, when drinking medicine, Zhao Shuo had a problem, that is, he looked at the ingredients, so the military doctor who pulled the cart searched for traditional Chinese medicine all over the mountains.

Cangshu, tangerine peel, magnolia, angelica, poria cocos, pot-bellied bark, sheng banxia, etc., these are the materials written on the bottle, but Zhao Shuo doesn't know any of them. He was just next to the medic, repeating it constantly, strengthening the memorial of the medic.

A few days later, with the efforts of Zhao Shuo and the military doctor, most of the materials had been found. Zhao Shuo didn't know the production method. But that's totally okay.

He ordered the herbs to be put in a large pot with ginger, and then the soup was served and distributed to the soldiers suffering from heat stroke.

Although the effect of the medicine is not as good as that of regular Zhengqi water, it still has a certain effect on patients with heat stroke.

Seeing this situation, Zhao Shuo also increased his confidence, three meals a day, and a bowl for everyone.

In this way, with the decoction to fight heat stroke, everyone gradually improved, the number of people looking for hops began to increase, and the travel speed of Zhao Shuo and his party was also slightly faster. (To be continued.) )
