Zhou Xiaocao doesn't care if any of them are angry or not, as long as his women are not angry, that's fine. Along the way, they either rode horses improvised and played all the way; Or hire a carriage and watch from the curtains; Or you can walk on foot with each other's arms and enjoy the scenery on the side of the road.

The weather in early autumn is the most refreshing and changeable.

The cold air from Siberia began a battle with the hot air from the south when the sun began to migrate towards the Tropic of Capricorn. The result of the scramble is the collision of hot and cold air, followed by rainfall. As the saying goes, an autumn rain and a cool, the weather that has just rained, under the action of ozone released by thunder and lightning, the air is unusually fresh. The weeds on the side of the road that have begun to bear seeds are also swaying in the wind, showing their struggle against fate.

Of course, the result of the struggle is a temporary surrender to fate. However, these guys who "can't burn out the wildfire, and the spring breeze blows and regenerates" are still struggling before they die. "On the 40th day of the beginning of autumn, every inch of grass bears seeds", this folk proverb expresses their hearts: "In the coming year, the master will come back!" ”

The road was a little slippery, and the moss and mushrooms came out at the right time, and they became delicious dishes. Zhou Xiaocao is good at cooking, distinguishing the wild mushrooms collected by everyone from poisonous and non-toxic. This made him very depressed: "I said everyone, how many times have I said it, most of the bright colors are poisonous, that is the warning color, tell others that I am poisonous!" You guys"

Feng Yulan cleaned her hands next to the mountain spring on the side, then wiped the clothes on her waist indiscriminately, crossed her waist and said, "I look good." What's the matter? ”

Seeing that the other women all had the same eyes, Zhou Xiaocao had no choice but to surrender: "Okay, good." Aunts and grandmothers, I can't afford to mess with you. Okay, right? ”

Zhao Zhigao and Begonia Simei hid aside and snickered, and Zhou Xiaocao couldn't help but find the object of venting: "You guys, what are you doing standing there?" Why don't you come over and help! ”

Zhao Zhigao walked over with a twist, like a little daughter-in-law who was angry with his mother-in-law: "What does that old man need to do?" ”

Zhou Xiaocao waved his hand: "Forget it, you can't cook!" Stay for a while! ”

Zhao Zhigao went back again, causing the four charms of Begonia to cover their mouths and laugh. Zhao Zhigao was also angry: "A few of you, girls, don't even know how to cook!" ”

Xianglanjun said: "It's not that you, the master, didn't teach? You can cook, and we will cook. ”

Zhao Zhigao was furious: "Ouch. It's the other way around, women don't look like women, they can't cook, they don't know how to sew."

Feng Yulan said: "What roar? Aren't we all good at cooking? Why are you going to punish us? ”

Where did Zhao Zhigao dare, so he had to go to the side with his tail between his legs and get angry.

Seeing that his master was really angry, the four charms of Begonia didn't dare to be too presumptuous, so they hurriedly found something to do to divert the master's attention: "I'll wash the mushrooms!" ”

"I'll go too. I'll go too! ”

Okay, the four beauties went to wash mushrooms together, this lineup is unprecedentedly strong! As soon as Zhou Xiaocao saw the posture, he hurriedly spoke: "Don't use it indiscriminately." You can't use the mountain spring water here, but you can use it over there! ”

There are two mountain springs flowing almost side by side. It's all crystal clear and crystal clear. The four charms of Begonia randomly chose the mountain spring on the right to wash mushrooms. But he didn't want to be stopped by Zhou Xiaocao.

"Why?"

They have questions, and Feng Yulan and they also have questions. Including Zhao Zhigao, who drew circles on the ground with branches on the side, and didn't know who he was cursing, he also had doubts.

Why can't the right one be used for the same two springs?

Zhou Xiaocao had no choice but to "forced" to sell his knowledge: "You see, these two mountain springs, the one on the left, there are muddy footprints on the bank of the stream, which proves that people and animals are drinking in this spring; The stream on the right is much cleaner, proving that people and animals do not come here to drink. This means that there must be something wrong with the mountain spring water on the right! ”

Bing Ling was obviously a little puzzled: "Young Master, is there anything else that can't be drunk with this water?" ”

Before Zhou Xiaocao could speak, Yan Qixia, who had a big belly, had already spoken: "It is true that some water cannot be drunk." When we were in the valley of love, there was a stream of water, which came out of the ground, and the color of the water turned yellow, and when people and animals drank it, they would have a big belly like a drum, and they would cry for several days, and if they couldn't stand it, they would die. ”

Ginkgo covered her mouth, and her little baby-fat face was full of incredulity: "Oh, it's so scary!" ”

Zhou Xiaocao smiled: "That's because many heavy metal minerals under the ground dissolve with the flow of water, and people drink it, of course there will be problems." ”

Ginkgo immediately clapped his hands and said, "Oh, the young master even knows this, it's amazing!" ”

Feng Yulan said: "Cut! Tell me, why can't you drink this spring? ”

Zhou Xiaocao spread his hands: "How can I know this?" ”

Feng Yulan said: "It seems that you don't know everything!" ”

Zhou Xiaocao said: "That's not necessarily! If I had done a field trip, I would have understood. ”

Chloe cheered and said, "Okay, the young master will take us to the field to investigate!" ”

The girl's heart is still very interested in exploring the unknown. But as soon as these words came out, Kou Er knew that she was speechless, and quickly stuck out her tongue and said, "The slave said nonsense, young master, don't take it seriously." ”

Zhou Xiaocaoniu's temper also came up, and he waved his hand: "Okay!" Let's go and investigate and see why this spring water can't be drunk! ”

Zhou Xiaocao took Feng Yulan and the two little girls, and went upstream along the stream on the right under the escort of the four charms of Begonia, and Zhao Zhigao stayed behind to watch the pregnant Yan Qixia and the happy Bingling girl.

Regardless of their fatigue, they climbed up the stream, and after about two miles, the water rose with a trace of white smoke, and looked like boiling water. Zhou Xiaocao tested the water temperature and said, "This is a hot spring, a real pure natural geothermal hot spring!" ”

The water temperature is fifty or sixty degrees, which is relatively high. However, the further downstream you go, the lower the water temperature becomes, so you can soak in the hot springs if you find a place of forty or fifty degrees.

"Let's climb up!"

Zhou Xiaocao spoke, and several people regained their spirits and continued to climb. I didn't go far, and I was already surrounded by white smoke steaming, like a fairyland. When he arrived here, Zhou Xiaocao smelled a pungent smell and said happily: "I know why this water can't be drunk!" There is a sulphur mine underneath here, and the sulphur dissolves in water, and after drinking this water, it will make you feel upset! ”

Feng Yulan said: "Then what are you happy about?" ”

Zhou Xiaocao laughed: "What am I happy about? Two reasons! First of all, there will be a lot of sulfur here, and we can use it to make gunpowder, to make powerful firearms, and once it is used in battle, the enemy will be terrified! A cannonball goes down, and the city falls; One more cannonball, and the people die! ”

Feng Yulan pouted and said, "Men like to fight, boring!" ”

Zhou Xiaocao looked at Feng Yulan, whose hair was flaxen-colored, her skin was very fair, and she had a unique Hu bloodline, and licked her lips: "Hehe, this is another reason, it has a lot to do with all the beauties!" ”

The four charms of Begonia also came to be interested: "Oh? What is that? (To be continued......)
