Lit the Guanyin incense, Mu Wanqiu gently fanned the fragrance, sniffed hard, for a long time, she extinguished the incense, and sighed in frustration, "It seems that I really have no understanding, Sannier said, the formula of this Guanyin incense is the simplest, ordinary people can distinguish it by taking a sip, I smelled it for so long, I just feel fragrant, but I don't know what material is used." Shaking his head dejectedly, "Forget it, the stupid bird flies first, I'd better identify the spices seriously......"

While thinking, she put away the Guanyin incense, added some lamp oil, turned the oil lamp bright, went down to the ground to hold the ceramic jar on the case, sat cross-legged on the kang, poured it out one by one, carefully compared it with the pictures in the book, looked at the words on the book, took it to the nose from time to time to smell it, and occasionally baked it on the oil lamp, and then smelled it......

The human nose is adaptable, the same smell will be numb after a long time, no longer keen, must wait for the fragrance to disperse, after a period of recovery, today's daytime, she is using this to skillfully resolve Master Liu's suspicion of her.

Because of this, although many people rely on ancestral secret techniques to concoct the best spices, they can't practice the nose that can distinguish more than 50 kinds of incense at the same time, because it takes a lot of time to accumulate!

As craftsmen, they have to be like Mu Wanqiu now since they were young, running for life, and what they lack is time!

Uniquely blessed, Mu Wanqiu has a copy of Wei's perfumery in her hand, and she can be said to have taken the lead in dealing with similar situations; According to the records of Wei's perfumery, she spent three taels of silver to buy a wool cloak, and after smelling one or two aromas, she felt that the smell began to weaken, and her nose was not sensitive, so she covered her nose with a wool cloak and took a few deep breaths.

Although it is only a small trick, it allows Mu Wanqiu to save a lot of time in practicing smelling incense, it takes a month for others to completely distinguish and remember three to five aromas, she can remember seven or eight in one night, and as long as she reviews it again the next day, it will basically not be bad.

Late at night, Mu Wanqiu was still tirelessly reading the book, constantly smelling all kinds of aromas, remembering the shapes and flavors of various spices......

Thinking that she was too stupid, she had been in Lin Ji for almost a month, and she couldn't even tell the main ingredient in Lin Ji Guanyin incense, so Mu Wanqiu wanted the stupid bird to fly first, and read hard until late at night.

In fact, she didn't know that there was a secret guide from Wei, who was known as a generation of perfumers, and as soon as she set foot in incense, she walked a road that was different from others, and it was a road that penetrated nature and the evolution of all things in heaven and earth - incense.

In the narrow cognition of most perfumers, incense is incense, which is a religious sacrifice, a smell of lavender, and a combination of one or a variety of specific spices, in fact, these are only a small category of incense that Mu Wanqiu has embarked on.

The spices in the eyes of the Great Zhou perfumer are specific, and Gu's spice research has only recorded 500 kinds of spices to be called a god, but in Wei's eyes, incense is everywhere, and everything that can make incense is not necessarily called spices!

In life, a grass, a tree, a flower, a thing all contain its own taste, as long as it is natural and suitable, it can be used as a spice, and even some plants that smell very smelly are also a spice after treatment; For example, medicinal materials, many people simply think that medicine is medicine, but in Wei's eyes, most of the medicinal materials are natural spices, but different processing methods are used to make the fragrance fade or even lose the fragrance......

The reason why Mu Wanqiu learned slowly was that she spent a lot of time collecting and learning these things step by step according to the description of Wei's Spice Encyclopedia, and it was precisely these, in the eyes of most people such as Master Liu and Sister-in-law Lin, who were just some dead branches and rotten leaves, and had no fragrance value at all!

In contrast, others only need to learn to smell a few specific spices, and they can concoct a good fragrance according to the ancestral secret technique, and learn to do it with one hand, and the time will naturally be short; Just like Master Liu, what she remembers repeatedly is only the dozen or so spices that prepared Guanyin incense, which have been reciting for decades, even if she closes her eyes and only smells one sip, she can also tell the various spices in the Guanyin incense that is burning in front of her.

I don't know, I thought she was profound, but practice makes perfect!

Mu Wanqiu is not, she has systematically learned to smell the fragrance of every grass and tree she can see around her at the beginning, for what is called spice in the eyes of most people, she has no time to learn, in a month, she has memorized nearly a hundred kinds of incense smells, but in the eyes of others, she is still a stupid girl who knows nothing about incense.

Compared with the people around her, Mu Wanqiu also thinks that she has no understanding and talent in spices, so she wants to make up for it with more hard work, what she doesn't know is that she has uncovered a tip of the iceberg on the mysterious infinite incense path, and accumulated a foundation that no one else has recognized.

The so-called thick accumulation, when she has recognized all the thousands of spices in Wei's spice encyclopedia, remembered it, and integrated it, she is already standing high in the clouds, just like the ugly duckling, when she is not grown, she is the ugliest and stupidest one in the duck flock, but once she changes, she is the white swan with wings spread and flying high, which is incomparable to the croaking ducks, and can only look up!

……

A high-pitched rooster crow broke through the air, Mu Wanqiu turned over and continued to sleep, suddenly, she suddenly opened her eyes and sat up, the room was still dark, she was extremely sleepy, she wanted to continue to lie down and sleep, but when she heard a rooster crow outside, she didn't dare to sleep again, she blinked hard, she stumbled and felt the fire fold next to the pillow, lit the oil lamp, and looked at the leaky pot on the case with her fascinated eyes......

Oh my God, it's almost time!

With a sense of excitement, Mu Wanqiu suddenly fell asleep, reached out and scooped up the warm cotton clothes on the kang, quickly put them on, and she came to the outhouse in a few steps.

In order to smell the fragrance and keep the air in the house fresh, no matter how cold the day is, Mu Wanqiu has to open the door early in the morning for ventilation, as soon as she pushes the door, a cold wind with goose feather-like snowflakes rushes towards her, Mu Wanqiu shivered, "...... It's snowing, no wonder it's so dark. ”

Taking a deep breath, looking at the half-foot-thick snow in the yard, for no reason, Mu Wanqiu was in a good mood, stretched out her hand, and pieces of snowflakes fell on the white palm, and then disappeared without a trace, a trace of coolness penetrated into the bottom of her heart, which felt amazing.

Gradually, Mu Wanqiu's lips were full of smiles, like bright plum blossoms blooming in the snow.

After playing for a while, feeling that the snow was gradually getting lighter, Mu Wanqiu turned around and went back to the house to get her hat and gloves, she had to sweep the snow in the front yard before the owner and Master Liu got up.

"Ah Qiu, it's so early......" Mu Wanqiu was clearing the snow with a spade, and Li Laohan from Li Ji Spice Store on the street drove the carriage out with a squeak.

“…… Uncle early! ”

Seeing Li Laohan's carriage full of spices coming, Mu Wanqiu stopped what she was doing, flashed to the side, and made way for her, "...... So early, who did the uncle send to the house? ”
