"Shopkeeper, do you have comfrey paste in this shop?"

At dusk, a dignified-looking, simple-dressed, but with a hint of anger hidden between his eyebrows, walked into the Ruyi Rouge Shop.

Xing Ruyi was counting the goods, when he heard the voice, a small face poked out from behind the counter, and smiled at the door: "Yes, you wait, I will put down the work in my hand and get it for you." ”

The man nodded, and took a stand in the doorway.

After he set up, he did not look into the shop, but turned around and looked at the sun that was about to set outside. The afterglow of the setting sun turned the house red. Tomorrow, it's about another good day.

Comfrey paste is an ointment made of comfrey-based, combined with some traditional Chinese medicine, and boiled with oil. It has the effect of detoxifying and relieving pain, and is also clinically used to treat burns. But in the folk, it is mostly used to smear those places that have been bitten by mosquitoes.

Xing Ruyi's comfrey paste is the best comfrey brought back by the fox from Qingqiu, and its effect is much better than that of ordinary shops. Because the fox doesn't go back often, she boils this comfrey paste once a year, cans it, and puts it in a corner of the counter.

Just because she opened a Ruyi rouge shop, many people don't know that her shop also sells comfrey cream, and most of them won't find her shop to buy it. Most of the boiled ones were taken back by Chang Tai and Xiao Shengzi and distributed to those brothers in the yamen. It's rare to meet someone who takes the initiative to buy it, and Xing Ruyi's service attitude is naturally not to say.

"Childe, you see, my comfrey paste is made of pure natural Chinese herbs such as the best comfrey, angelica, parsnip, rehmannia root, angelica, frankincense, etc., which not only has the effect of transforming saprophytic muscle, but also can be used for sores and carbuncles. The ingredients are all attached to the bottom of the jar, and you can take them to any pharmacy in the city to compare them with their comfrey cream. The things in our shop are definitely the best. This is generally used by ordinary people, is to take an appropriate amount of comfrey paste to apply to the place that needs to be treated, our usage can be more refined, I here with some gauze, you apply this comfrey paste on the gauze, stick it on the affected area, and change it once a day or two. These precautions are written in this booklet. ”

"Is this the only one?"

"How many cans does Childe want?"

"How much, how much I want, money is not a problem." The man took out a lot of silver taels and put them on the table.

"It's not that I don't want to sell it to you, but this comfrey paste is extremely economical to use, just such a small can, it's no problem to use it for two years. Childe bought so much back, I'm afraid it's going to be wasted. ”

"I'm not alone." The man looked at the comfrey paste in his hand: "I'm a soldier, and I'm going to bring some back to my brothers." ”

"I see." Xing Ruyi accepted the silver: "Son, wait a minute, I'll go and take out the rest of the comfrey paste." ”

"Thank you, shopkeeper." The man took the comfrey cream, walked out of the rouge shop, turned over his horse, and soon disappeared into the street.

"He's a soldier."

"I can see that there is a hint of fierceness hidden between his eyebrows, but he doesn't look like that kind of vicious person who is good at disguise."

Xing Ruyi turned around and looked at the fox who appeared in the shop at some point. He had a chill on him, as if he had come back from a place of extreme cold.

"He didn't buy those comfrey creams for his brother."

"How do you know? It's hard to see, you're spying on him. Xing Ruyi ran to the fox, lowered his head and sniffed, in addition to the fragrance that the fox carried, there were some other smells. It smelled like something fragrant, but she couldn't remember where she had smelled it.

The fox reached out and pinched Xing Ruyi's nose: "If you want to know anything, just ask me directly, why do you sniff my body with your nose, you are not a fox." ”

"It's true that I'm not a fox, but after living with a fox for a long time, many human habits have been imperceptibly affected by it. Tell me, what's the smell of you? Did you carry me on your back to see some other goblin? Fox, I can tell you, we haven't gotten married yet. ”

"It's not married!"

"Are you not married? What do you mean by that? Do you mean that before we get married, I don't have the right to care about you, or something else? I can tell you, I am the kind of person who will never get into the sand in my eyes, and once I get into the sand, I can give up a sea of sand and I will not step into it again until I die. ”

"I mean, it's time for us to get married, and when we do, you can come and ask me openly." The fox pinched Ruyi's face: "I went to the underworld and asked that person about you." ”

"So this incense is ......"

"It should be the aroma of Meng Po soup when talking to Meng Po, you have been to the underworld, you have also seen Meng Po, and asked her to drink the soup, this taste, you should remember."

"Hey, it's been a long time ago, why are you still mentioning this?" When it came to Meng Po soup, Xing Ruyi was a little embarrassed.

When she first met the fox, she was attacked by a monster who wanted to seize the fox's spiritual power, and she hung up inexplicably, and then went to the underworld in a daze. This underworld is not as terrible as imagined, that is, there are more dark places, she walked around alone, walked and walked to the side of the Nai He Bridge, and then saw Meng Po who was selling soup at the head of the bridge.

I thought that this Meng Po was an old lady with a bent waist, white hair, and a wrinkled face, looking a little scary, but I didn't expect it to be a peerless beauty. She ran over happily, and then reached out and asked for soup. Meng Po only glanced at her and refused.

At that time, she thought that Meng Po was looking down on her, bullying her to come down in a hurry, and she didn't have any money with her, so she stood at the head of the bridge and quarreled with others. It wasn't until the fox came down to look for her that she knew that she was not over her yang life, and she still had a chance to return her yang. But if Meng Po didn't refuse her, and really gave her Meng Po soup, even if she was pulled back to the yang world by the fox, nine times out of ten, she would become an idiot and fool.

Meng Po was originally kind-hearted, but she was treated as a donkey's liver and lungs.

Xing Ruyi was ashamed, hurriedly apologized to the human, and hurriedly pulled the fox and asked him to take himself out.

Now, she doesn't worry about anything else, she worries that she will be innocent that she will go down, and Meng Po will hold a grudge and not sell Meng Po soup to her. If this is reborn with memories and can't find someone as good as a fox, how depressing it will be.

Xing Ruyi was depressed, but he heard the fox say: "That man has a rotten smell on his body, he should have lived with a dead man all year round." ”

"Who? That person? Xing Ruyi had a short-term memory break.

"It's the guy who just came to the shop to buy comfrey cream."

"The soldier?" Xing Ruyi looked at the market outside, and after a while, the sun had set, and the lanterns of the shops opposite had already been picked up.

The man dismounted, tied his horse to the black locust tree outside the door, reached out and pushed the door open, and walked in.

The courtyard was empty, with neither people nor lights, and it was pitch black everywhere. He followed the path in the courtyard to the end, then turned around and entered a smaller courtyard. There is only one room in the courtyard with a red light on in the room. When he entered the courtyard, he saw the woman in red standing under the cloister, quietly watching him.

"What's going on? It's cold outside. ”

"I don't think so." The woman in red whispered, raised her eyes and smiled, "I can't smell the smell in the room, it makes me feel terrible." Zilin, give up, I don't hate you anymore. ”

"What stupid things are you talking about?" The man walked up to the woman and said, "Don't say that again." I'll definitely find a way to bring you back to life. ”

"I'm dead, I can't live anymore." The woman stretched out her hand and wanted to pull the man's arm, but her hand passed through his arm: "If I had known that there would be today, no matter how bitter I was, I would not have gone to a dead end." ”

"The past is gone, we have to look forward. Come, come in, it's cold outside. The man lifted the curtain and watched the woman walk into the room lightly, and he followed: "Today, I have found a new shop." The shop is called Ruyi Rouge Shop, and the shopkeeper is a young girl like you, but she is not as good-looking as you. I stood in front of the shop, watching the sunset set little by little, and I thought, when you are in a good mood, I will take you over and ask you to pick up some rouge gouache for yourself. You're too thin, and if you put some rouge, your complexion will look better. ”

"Aren't you afraid that I'll scare the shopkeeper?"

"Don't be afraid, she can't see you." The man took out all the comfrey paste in his arms: "In this world, there are not many men who are as lucky as me. They can't see you, only I can see you. Come, Redsleeves, come and see my new comfrey cream. The shopkeeper said that this comfrey paste has the effect of removing saprophytic muscles, maybe after you use these, you will be fine. ”

"Saprophytic muscle is also for the living, and for the dead, I'm afraid it's useless."

"I haven't tried it yet, so how do you know it's useless." The man twisted open a jar and happily took it to the bed. On the bed, a woman dressed in red, with her eyes closed, her face pale and her lips blue. If you look closely, you can still see the corpse spots floating on her face.

In the room, all kinds of incense were lit, but it still couldn't hide the aura of the body's increasing collapse. The woman in red couldn't smell the smell, but she could clearly see her appearance and feel her body decaying little by little. She endured the discomfort and twisted her body to the side: "Zilin, it's useless, I'm dead, I'm already dead." You should...... It's time for you to put me in the ground. ”

"There will be a way, there will be a way." Meng Zilin gently untied the clothes of the female corpse, dug out a large piece of comfrey paste with his hands and applied it to the festering places.

"Zilin, you don't want to look like this, I beg you, don't look like this, okay. The way you look, I saw it, scared! The woman shrunk into a ball: "I promise you, I will not leave you, life after life, life and next life, I will not leave you." You let my body mix with the dirt outside. It's rotten, and even if it can come back to life, I don't want it. ”

"I'm sorry Red Sleeves, it's me who is useless!" The comfrey paste in Meng Zilin's hand rolled to the ground: "It's me who is useless!" It's useless! ”
