248 Realgar can repel snakes

The valley is surrounded by mountains, and everywhere there is a dense patch of thatch and wild grass, some of which have grown to the height of more than a man. The whole valley looks green, and the honeysuckle is distributed among these weeds, and it is also in full bloom.

When the grass grows luxuriantly, there are snakes.

Xiao Yu looked back at Xie Yuluo and remembered the frightened look when Xie Yuluo accidentally touched the snake in the field of his house last time.

She should be very afraid of snakes, but for the sake of her family, she still came, and such a Xie Yuluo made Xiao Yu's heart full of gratitude.

Xie Yuluo was looking for something in the basket.

She had known that there were snakes on this mountain, so she had brought a lot of snake-repellent things with her before she came.

I took four sachets alone, and the sachets were not only soaked in wine, but also had a strong smell of wine on them, and there was realgar in them.

She handed Xiao Yu two, "Here you go, you put this on your body, the snake doesn't like this smell, and it will run away when it smells it." ”

Alcohol?

Xiao Yu pinched the sachet and sniffed it, a little puzzled: "Can this drive away snakes?" ”

Xie Yuluo: "Of course you can, there is not only the smell of wine on it, but also realgar, don't you know that realgar wine can drive away snakes?" ”

Xiao Yu shook his head, and his face was light: "I don't know." ”

Xie Yuluo put the sachet on her waist and tightened the trouser tube and sleeves again.

Since going up the mountain and encountering the snake in the ground, Xie Yuluo has palpitations, made a few sachets, the sachets are soaked in wine, and then add realgar after soaking.

There is a sentence in the "Compendium of Materia Medica", "Realgar can kill a hundred poisons, ward off a hundred evils, and kill Gu poisons...... Bring realgar wine into the mountains, that is, you are not afraid of snakes. ”

Nowadays, the climate is mild, and it is also a time when the breeding activities of various insects and snakes are rampant, so wearing realgar sachets can be more or less avoided.

Seeing that Xiao Yu didn't know, Xie Yuluo naturally wouldn't say that this was the words in the "Compendium of Materia Medica", but could only say: "When my grandfather was alive, he often had to go to the mountains to collect medicine, and he would definitely bring realgar with him when he went to the mountains, saying that if he brought realgar, the snake would not come close!" ”

Xiao Yu didn't doubt it, picked up the sachet and put it on his body.

Seeing that Xiao Yu was no longer asking, Xie Yuluo breathed a long sigh of relief. Look, in the future, all the things that Xiao Yu doesn't understand will be pushed on his grandfather, and Xiao Yu will definitely not misunderstand.

The sachet is beautiful, the snow-white sachet is embroidered with green bamboo leaves, and Xie Yuluo's body is embroidered with a big red rose.

This sachet seems to have been specially prepared by Xie Yuluo for herself.

Xiao Yu was happy in his heart, but his face was not conspicuous, and after tying the sachet, he carried the basket and began to pick honeysuckle.

Xie Yuluo followed closely behind, not daring to go too far.

In such a patch of grass, there must be snakes in it, so it's better to stay closer, and even if there are snakes, they can take care of each other.

Xiao Yu also stared closely at Xie Yuluo's movements, and when he saw that she was a little farther away, he hurriedly took two steps closer and didn't let her go far alone.

Xie Yuluo carefully picked the honeysuckle, if the grass at the beginning was as deep as the calf, and he was a little scared, and there was nothing to be afraid of after getting acquainted with it, the key was that he didn't touch the snake, Xie Yuluo was very bold, and he didn't follow Xiao Yu, looking at more and more honeysuckles not far away, and going farther and farther.

Xiao Yu was always by her side, watching her come from a distance, busy carrying the basket and walking along.

Xie Yuluo picked honeysuckle as she walked inside, and the weeds that were deep in her calves stepped on it, trampling the weeds down and prostrate on the ground, and some of them oozed a faint grass juice.

Xiao Yu was beside her, only two or three steps away.

Xie Yuluo picked flowers wholeheartedly, naturally she didn't notice that Xiao Yu had been following her, her basket was almost full, but the honeysuckle in this valley was only a small part, and there were more honeysuckles in it.

The sun is on the third pole, the weather is getting hotter and hotter, Xie Yuluo wiped the sweat on her face, raised her head, looked at the sun, it was noon at this time, it was time to eat, she proposed: "Let's take a break, eat something and come again!" ”

"Okay." Xiao Yu put a large handful of honeysuckle in his hand into the basket. The two men returned the same way and came to the foot of the mountain.

At the foot of the mountain there are many towering trees, and a turquoise stream flows down the mountain through the valley in no known direction.

After the two of them washed their hands in the stream, Xie Yuluo took out the dry food she had prepared.

With the boiled eggs, Xie Yuluo boiled four, two for each person, and brought a box of pastries, Xie Yuluo put it on the big stone, and the two of them sat on the stone, resting and eating lunch.

Xie Yuluo is easy to stalk when she eats eggs, and she is easy to burp when she eats it, and she chokes on it as soon as she eats half an egg.

It's easy to burp when you choke, and it's the kind of thing that won't get better for a while.

"Uh......"

Xiao Yu glanced at her, and said in a faint voice: "Drink more water." ”

Xie Yuluo patted her chest, and finally swallowed the egg: "Don't you drink it?" ”

If she drank it, Xiao Yu wouldn't drink it, and it would be difficult for him to drink the water in the river: "You take a sip first, I'll drink it after you drink it." ”

Xie Yuluo didn't expect Xiao Yu to follow, she only prepared a kettle, and Xiao Yu didn't prepare anything.

Xie Yuluo handed the kettle to Xiao Yu and burped again at an inopportune time.

Xiao Yu frowned and didn't pick up the kettle: "You drink first!" ”

"Uh...... Xie Yuluo just wanted to say something, but she hiccuped again, and Xiao Yu's brows were about to condense into Sichuan characters. Seeing that Xiao Ge was displeased, Xie Yuluo lifted the kettle and raised her head to drink.

Instead of drinking into the mouth of the kettle, she held the kettle high and opened her mouth to let the water flow to her mouth.

Xiao Yuzheng was stunned, looking at Xie Yuluo's movements, the bright red lips opened, he sat higher than Xie Yuluo, as long as he looked down slightly, he could see the small tongue like a lilac in the red lips, pink, small.

Accidentally, the water spilled out, Xie Yuluo wiped her mouth, closed the lid of the pot, and continued to eat eggs.

After eating the eggs, he began to repeat the action he had just done, burping, one after the other.

Again, Xie Yuluo still raised her head to drink water, and did not touch the spout.

This pot of water can be drunk by two people.

Xiaoge always has a habit of cleanliness, so naturally he is reluctant to touch things that others have touched.

She didn't drink water from the spout, so Xiao Ge Lao shouldn't be disgusted.

Xie Yuluo was very happy, and believed that Xiao Ge Lao was the same.

At this moment, there was a sudden sound of something rustling in the grass, Xie Yuluo looked at the grass, and only felt that her scalp began to tingle.

What's in the grass?

Snakes?

Xie Yuluo's scalp was numb, and she sat upright, staring at the grass. There was still a sound of rustling in the grass, and Xie Yuluo watched intently.

The voice became clearer and clearer, and suddenly, a living creature jumped out of the grass, and its red eyes collided with Xie Yuluo.

Xie Yuluo almost didn't jump.

The egg, which hadn't been chewed twice, slipped straight into the throat.

Almost didn't have an infarction.
