【037】There is a reason for it
Zhiqing didn't believe the words of the two girls. The two girls told the situation of eavesdropping on Zhong Kui's dream next to them, seeing that they were talking about the truth, not very serious and not like fooling people, he finally decided to ask Zhong Kui himself.
Zhong Kui went to the toilet and didn't come over for a long time.
Wengen came back in a hurry, and brought back bad news. It is said that after the fog dissipated, the chickens, ducks, dogs and other livestock in the mountain people's homes were abnormal.
Chickens, ducks, and feathers are dull, loss of appetite, and frequent feather breaking. Based on the above, Zhiqing carefully analyzed, this may be a sign of an outbreak of chicken plague.
The dog, neighing and roaring, also lost its appetite, lazily lying in the nest and not wanting to move.
Ploughing the ox, the four hooves are weak, and the four legs are lifted up, and the four legs tremble for less than a few minutes and then fall down.
Moreover, this symptom had never happened before, so some ignorant mountain people whispered that all this was caused by these few strangers.
Before this matter could be clarified, Li Laoqi came to Zhong Kui again, saying that the children of several mountain people had fever and vomiting for unknown reasons.
Zhong Kui came out of the latrine, still thinking about how to perfunctory the dream talk. When I walked into the big room, I found that Mr. Li was also there, not only there, but also very anxious.
"Mr. Zhong, you can help us."
He glanced at the others in confusion, "Help what?" What's wrong? ”
Wen Gen preemptively said: "Just now I was supervising the shipbuilding, and some workers said that after the fog dissipated, the livestock had an abnormality!" ”
"Chicken plague!" Zhong Kui said without thinking. His thoughts coincide with Zhiqing.
"Probably not, you listen to the old man." Zhiqing seemed to think that this was unlikely, and he overturned his previous thoughts.
Li Laoqi had just been qualified for the post of village chief, and he was not suitable for a while, and he looked a little at a loss. He deliberately cleared his throat and said, "Several children have a fever, vomiting, convulsions, and the mountain people say that this is a sign of evil. ”
"Can I say two words?" Vanilla looked at Zhong Kuidao with a little timidity. Truth; She is still somewhat afraid of this black-faced brother, afraid that he will be powerful, afraid that he will say that he is ignorant and talking nonsense. But before the fog subsided, she did smell something unusual, just because of such and such a tedious matter, and then threw the matter out of the clouds. Now when she mentioned the fog, she suddenly remembered the question she had at the beginning.
Vanilla's sense of smell is very orthodox, she doesn't smell the evil smell, but smells a strange smell that looks like only Chinese herbs. This smell is spicy and choking, with a faint smell of blood! This is all the habit she developed when she usually collects herbs, smelling, looking, tasting, etc.! Therefore, as long as the various smells pass by her sense of smell, she can immediately determine which kind of smell it is.
Xu Qian, on the other hand, is different, her sensing ability is extraordinary. No matter how powerful the evil spirit was, as long as she looked at her eyes or senses, she could tell if there was a ghostly aura hidden in the air.
Vanilla and Xu Qian can be described as Zhong Kui's left and right arms.
Ran Qin is a female man who can write and martial arts.
At most, the roots of the text are counted as a number.
Zhiqing is the eldest brother among them who is knowledgeable, experienced and resourceful.
Xiao Ming is stupid, he can only be a miscellaneous apprentice. He still couldn't overcome the natural fear in his mind, so there was something very important that Zhong Kui deliberately didn't let him participate.
"Hmmm! You speak! ”
With Brother Zhong Kui's permission, Vanilla was full of confidence and glanced at the people in the room. said: "There is an abnormal smell in the mist, this smell is very strange, a bit similar to the smell secreted by tree branches, pungent!" Sniffing for a long time is likely to cause damage to the respiratory organs, or suffocation! ”
"Oh!" Not only Zhong Kui was surprised, but the rest of the people were surprised.
In other words, people can avoid the invasion of mist, but those weak children with low resistance, as well as livestock, can't avoid it, and directly invade the respiratory organs by this strange smell of mist? This strange smell forms a toxin that invades the respiratory organs of living beings? Is that so? ”
"That's right! That's what I thought. "Vanilla is very satisfied with Zhiqing's all-round meticulous analysis, and I also admire his shrewdness and wisdom and thinking ability, if it is replaced by Zhong Kuige, he is simply mentally retarded in this regard! Think so! She didn't dare to show it in face, otherwise the ghost hunter would have to beat her.
"Then, vanilla, you can find some herbs in the nearby mountains and see if you can restrain this toxin that is harmful to livestock and children?" Zhiqing looked at Vanilla expectantly and said.
"Okay! I'll try! Vanilla said, and said to Xu Qian: "Sister Xu Qian will be my companion, let's go up the mountain together to have a look." ”
"Good!" Xu Qian agreed without saying a word.
"Don't say try, but be sure, you must control the harm of this toxin, and be sure to complete this task when you enter the uninhabited desert island." Zhong Kui added inappropriately.
"Guaranteed to get the job done." Vanilla laughed mischievously.
Wengen nodded, "Do you want me to go with the two of them?" He asked worriedly.
Zhong Kui, Zhiqing, and even Li Laoqi all knew what Wengen's worries were. After all, Xu Qian and Vanilla are two girls, they are not afraid of 10,000, they are afraid of what happened, thinking about what happened to Qin Nan and Xiaowan, they feel afraid.
If you have Wengen with you, of course, it is the best thing.
Vanilla and Xu Qian didn't make a sound, to be honest, in this unfamiliar environment, they still hope that there is a man to protect them. It's just that you have to be reserved on your face, and you can't show that you can't do big things without men.
At the moment, except for Xiao Ming, who had no right to speak, the rest of the people agreed that Wen Gen accompanied Vanilla and Xu Qian to the mountains to pick herbs.
"I want to go too." Xiao Ming hesitated and looked a little timid, and plucked up the courage to say.
"Go ahead! One more person is always good. Zhong Kui promised him.
"Oh yes!" Xiao Ming is a child, and such a small request is easy to be satisfied. I was so happy that I found a treasure, and I was very scared.
After Xu Qian and the four of them left, Li Laoqi said that he was going to tell the mountain people that they wanted to, and let them also go up the mountain to see how to help herbs identify and pick herbs. Zhiqing and Zhong Kui were of course a hundred who agreed with his suggestion.
Everyone went out at once to do their own work, leaving Zhiqing and Zhong Kui in the house.
Silent silence, the filter cigarette gradually shortened in the light blue smoke, Zhiqing suddenly stared at Zhong Kui seriously and said, "Talk about your recent situation." ”
Zhong Kui wondered, "I...... What can happen? As he spoke, he deliberately twisted the muscle bumps to show the other party, "Isn't this good?" ”
"You, don't call me haha, talk about your dreams." Zhiqing said with a serious look.
Ah, these two girls sold me? Zhong Kui glanced at Zhiqing weakly and scolded secretly. "Hi Hi! It's nothing, isn't it just two girls playing tricks on me! He wanted to say a few words in a perfunctory past, how could a person hide some secrets! This secret is exposed, how can I see people in the future, and my self-esteem!
