Qin Lang looked at her and smiled: "Don't worry, you're here, the sky in the mountains is dark, and there are many dangers." ”

Su Jin raised his head and glanced at the sky, it was bright, and it was at least an hour before it was dark.

Slightly sweet in his heart, Su Jin smiled and beckoned to Qin Lang: "Come and help me!" ”

"Good!" Qin Lang originally came to help her.

Before he came, Su Jin told him that he wanted to go to this area to find the hidden grass, and she didn't need to say more, he stood beside her and naturally searched for it with her.

"How? How's it going to be today? ”

Qin Lang: "I didn't see any big things, they were all pheasants and rabbits, and I got two bamboo rats and dug up more than a dozen winter bamboo shoots." It was easy to see a roe deer, and he scared the prince away! ”

"There are winter bamboo shoots," Su Jin's eyes lit up, and he said with a smile: "I'm hungry for this, but it's a coincidence, Ming'er will stay for another day, and when I go home the day after tomorrow, I can just use it to roast pheasants." Well, and bamboo rats are also good, I haven't eaten bamboo rat meat for a long time! ”

Although the bamboo rat has a rat character, it is completely different from the mouse. Some people eat rat meat, but the average person can't help but feel numb in their scalp when they think of this creature that burrows into the gutter.

Bamboo rats are different, living in the green and original mountain nature, eating bamboo shoots and bamboo roots, the fur on the body is soft and clean, not like the rats give people a dirty feeling, the meat is even more delicious, especially with the winter bamboo shoots together to make a dry pot, the fragrance is unbearable.

Qin Lang smiled: "The two bamboo rats happened to be caught alive, originally tied with rattans, Song Ping'an will make a cage to lock them up later, and bring them back the day after tomorrow." ”

If it weren't for his daughter-in-law's love to eat, Qin Lang wouldn't have bothered to catch it.

It's not easy to catch.

The two talked, and soon the jade box was filled with faint grass.

Su Jin carefully put it away, looked at the sky, and returned to the camp with Qin Lang.

Halfway up the slope, she inadvertently turned her head to look at the mountain col on the left, and was stunned for a moment, rubbed her eyes and pulled Qin Lang's sleeve: "Xianggong, look over there, is that dead tree a mulberry tree?" ”

Qin Lang followed Su Jin's hope, between the dense grass and trees, a dead tree was as thick as a person hugging, and there was only a trunk more than one person tall and two or three thick branches left, and there were no branches or leaves.

The body of the tree was entwined with vines, and if you only glanced at it roughly, the dead tree was inconspicuous.

It was as if the tree had been struck by lightning, and it was still very badly split, and a deep charred black could be seen from such a distance.

This is the forest, and it's not surprising that there are dead trees in the forest. However, if the dead tree were a mulberry tree, it would be very rare.

It's not easy for a mulberry tree to grow so big! Qin Lang had never seen or heard of it in at least two lifetimes.

I've heard that mulberry trees that grow for thousands of years will become essences, but they can ward off evil spirits, but I don't know if it's true.

After taking a closer look, Qin Lang said: "Ah Jin said yes, then it must be!" Would you like to go over and have a look? ”

He won't tell his daughter-in-law that he doesn't know mulberry trees at all!

The daughter-in-law was obviously interested in the dead stump of an old tree that was more than one person tall, so she would have to go and take a look.

Su Jin liked to listen to what Xianggong said, and took his hand with a smile: "Let's go and see!" ”

The road is not far, but it is not easy to walk, when the two of them came to him, Su Jin's heart jumped a little suddenly, this is indeed an old mulberry tree, growing into such a big old mulberry tree, if not a thousand years, but eight or nine hundred years, right? Maybe it's more than a thousand years!

It is also recorded in the "Poison Sutra" that it is very likely that mulberry beads are condensed from the stump of such an old mulberry tree.

The mulberry tree is brownish-gray, as big as a dragon's eye, and can nourish the spirit and blood when worn on the body, and has the miraculous effect of warding off evil spirits, and can break all the illusions that confuse the mind.

When he read this, Su Jin thought it was a strange force and didn't take it to heart.

Although the records in the "Poison Sutra" are reliable and credible after her confirmation, it does not prove that all the words and sentences in the book are true and credible.

Just take the essence and get rid of the dross.

But now it seems to be true.

"Did the prime minister bring a knife?"

Qin Lang nodded, and took out a dagger from his arms, "What does Ah Jin want me to do?" ”

"Split it!"

Without saying a word, Qin Lang kicked the half-decayed old mulberry tree to the ground, and then dismembered it with a dagger.

Although this dagger is not a magic weapon, it is also the best craftsman in the city who spent a lot of money to carefully make it, and it is used in his hands, and it is extremely sharp.

In addition, this old mulberry tree is already half-decayed, and the knife falls, which is more like chopping melons and vegetables.

In the rotten wood near the root, two brown-gray wood beads the size of a dragon's eye suddenly rolled down to the side, and Qin Lang was stunned.

The first reaction was to look at the daughter-in-law.

Is this what the daughter-in-law is for? Otherwise, this rotten wood is nothing worth paying attention to the daughter-in-law. Didn't you see him chopping melons and vegetables, chopping tree stumps, and his daughter-in-law didn't even move her eyelids?

"There really is!" Su Jin was really happy to pick up the two mulberry wood beads in his hand, and said to Qin Lang with a smile: "I didn't expect to take it again!" It is recorded in the scriptures that this is a good thing that can be bred by the old mulberry tree for more than a thousand years, called mulberry beads, which can nourish the spirit and strengthen the body, and will make people more sensitive after a long time, and can also ward off all evil things, and break all the illusions that confuse the mind! We're in luck today! This thing is hard to find, the tree must be more than a thousand years old, and when it is alive, it cannot give birth to mulberry beads, and it can gradually condense in the heart of the tree when it dies. I think this old mulberry tree was killed by thunder and lightning, and then it condensed mulberry beads......"

Su Jin sighed with emotion, and Qin Lang was already dumbfounded.

If that were the case, the luck of the two of them couldn't have been better.

Su Jin held one in his palm and handed it to Qin Lang with a smile: "This one is for you, and the other one is for me, and I will carry it with me from now on." This thing is expensive, and I don't dare to drill holes in it, and I can't string it with a rope, so just take it with you! ”

There are two in total, and they are born to have one for each of them, Qin Lang was not polite, and put one away with a smile.

Su Jin also took the other one into his arms decisively and carefully, and the two looked at each other and smiled.

My heart is blooming!

This trip is simply profitable......

Back at the camp, Gu Yunzheng, Song Ping'an and others were already barbecuing and roasting yams in an orderly manner, and Ming Shizi was sitting in the middle of everyone without a frame, talking and laughing.

Seeing that Su Jin and Qin Lang only came back at this time, everyone smiled very understandingly, Qin Lang's eldest brother is famous for his daughter-in-law, and the two of them may go to a place where no one is talking privately!

For this misunderstanding, Su Jin's face was a little embarrassed, but Qin Lang was frank and enjoyed.
