Chapter 125: Digging the Pit
Emperor Longqing will arrive in the afternoon, which means that Zhou Lao Er and the group of medicine pickers are ready to leave today.
After these days of observation, Liu Qingxin showed the other party's panic.
A man in his twenties, these days, began to use the excuse of asking for herbal medicine, day by day more and more diligent to run to the camp, once, the man even told everyone that there were traces of cordyceps at the foot of the mountain in the south, and wanted to lure everyone away and go to the side to camp.
Through small talk, Liu Qingxin saw that this man knew nothing about medicine, and he was a person who came to inquire about the news, and he answered him, and he was not panicked, but just said that he had no scruples about him, and their medicine search team would stay here for a long time, and during the Chinese New Year, there were also people who stayed behind, and they were very capable of waiting until next spring, and after picking the herbs, they would consider withdrawing.
Seven or eight days had passed since the man first came to the camp for questioning.
At first, it was just a walk in the camp at some point, but two or three days later, I "accidentally" saw a lot of radish and cabbage that Liu Qingxin asked people to send to the camp, and they needed to dig the cellar to store the radish and cabbage, which was completely panicked, especially in recent days, and it was early in the morning without waiting for the people in the camp to get up and go, and the black people were about to prepare to rest, so they reluctantly left.
Zhou Lao Er was a smart man, and he saw that he was a drunkard who did not mean to drink, but because he didn't know what was buried under their camp, he never probed him to the end, for fear that he was worried about the property in the camp, so out of caution, he told Liu Qingxin about it, and Liu Qingxin couldn't explain it to him. I just smiled and told him that it would be time to go out to look for medicine every day. Leave one more man down to look after the camp, but all thieves. There is no place where there is no weak-heartedness, and there is someone to take care of the land, and he will not dare to stretch out his hand.
"Brother Wang, you go and let Brother Zhang set up another carriage, and chase us in a while, the fish are almost in, it's time to close the net."
Liu smiled lightly and looked at the coachman Lao Wang, and explained to him pointedly. took the hand that Sister-in-law Jiang handed over to her, stepped on the footstool, and climbed into the carriage, "Help me pick up the whimper, Xiaobao will also give it to me, Sister-in-law Jiang, you go knock on the door of the shopkeeper Gu next door, and see if he is ready, okay, let's go out." ”
A carriage, a horse. Four big, one small, five people.
When they arrived at the camp at the foot of the mountain, as usual, they saw the young man whom they had already met several times.
"You're so diligent! It's so early in the morning every day. I came to camp and waited to learn my skills! If you persist like this for a long time, in the future, you will be able to become an excellent herb picker! ”
Liu Qingxin pretended not to know what the young man was thinking, lifted the hem of his clothes, stepped on the footstool and got out of the carriage, "Yesterday, I found a place with a lot of herbs, and today I am going to move the camp over there." Don't go somewhere wrong if you come back tomorrow......"
"Madame planning to change places?"
Liu Qingxin's "casual" words. Let the young man get a little excited and excited, waiting for the words to be spoken. Feeling that his reaction was wrong, he coughed lightly, restrained some of the color on his face, and asked Liu Qingxin half-explained, "The herbs in this piece have been marked?" ”
"It's so fast! I have a large patch of rare herbs elsewhere, and I want to take someone to camp and mark it, so that it can be collected next spring, and I will come back in three days at most! ”
Laughing and explaining to the young man, Liu Qingxin tightened some ropes with the "cover" that had been made up before, and agreed on a time limit for the man, so that he had to do it as soon as possible, "If it weren't for identifying those herbs, I wouldn't have been too lazy to let people move this camp around before sunrise...... After marking the herbs this time, and then coming back, I plan to let these guys stay here until next spring, when it's time to pick herbs, I have discussed with Shopkeeper Zhou, and in the Chinese New Year's Eve evening, those who are willing to watch the camp here, each person, will give an extra ten taels of silver for their hard work...... I listened to what they meant, and it seemed like they were all right......"
Gu Luochen is a taciturn person, except for when he talks to Liu Qingxin, he likes to be more serious, and when he talks to others, he loves to ignore them, and when others say ten words to him, he may not be able to agree to the type of "en".
raised his head, glanced at the young man, knew that he had fallen for Liu Qingxin, and did not say anything, only slightly twisted his brows, then turned around, and took over Xiaobao who was still sleeping from Sister-in-law Jiang's hand, crouched down, and squatted at Liu Qingxin's feet, tilted his head and waited for her to finish talking to others, so he pestered her and went to play in the woods.
Woo, this little wolf cub, makes Gu Luochen like it very much, especially the ferociousness in its eyes, so that just looking at it, he feels like he has found a relative, because he often walks around in the good doctor's workshop, Woo Woo is also familiar with him, and when he encounters a few times, he carries meat to feed it, and he doesn't resist it at all, and he eats it when he opens his mouth.
For Xiaobao, the little master, he is not very familiar with it, of course, this is also related to the fact that Xiaobao has always been held by someone, so that he wants to see it, and at this moment, Gu Luochen squatted down with Xiaobao in his arms, so that it could see Xiaobao, and Xiaobao, who had just woken up in a daze, also saw it...... This is where it gets interesting!
Now the interesting existence of Xiaobao, suddenly threw all the drowsiness out of the clouds, widened his eyes, and was full of excitement to stretch out his two little arms from the quilt to catch Woo, and Woo, after experiencing the initial "demonstration" and "revealing the fierce", all ended in failure, he also became very interested in Xiaobao.
Carefully stretched out his claws and touched Xiaobao's cloak, seeing that he was still not afraid of himself at all, and was full of interest and kindness to himself, he rubbed it in front of Gu Luochen who was holding Xiaobao, stretched out his tongue, and gently licked Xiaobao's cloak.
In the no-sensible way, this cloak should be Xiaobao's fur, as if it looks like this, but it's just ...... He is different from its breed, so the fur is not exactly the same, well, anyway, he is Liu Qingxin's child, which is equivalent to his "brother"!
lowered his head and glanced at Xiaobao, who was being held by Gu Luochen, and was full of interest in Xiaobao, without the slightest malice, Liu Qingxin couldn't help but raise his lips and smile.
Gu Luochen's ability is very good, and he competes with the self-proclaimed powerful person in the first year, and he is restrained within three moves, and, according to the first year, the tricks he uses are all deadly moves, making people have no ability to dodge, even if they can get away with the previous move, the next move is the same, it will make people fall into danger again and be unable to parry.
Therefore, with Gu Luochen coming to hold Xiaobao, even in the face of Woo, a wolf cub who is very easily moody, Liu Qingxin is very relieved.
Listening to Liu Qingxin's words, this medicine collection team has only left for two or three days, and will come back again, the young man who was sent to inquire about the news slightly twisted his eyebrows, raised his head, looked at her, and saw that she was completely indifferent, and even his eyes were focused on Xiaobao, who was held by Gu Luochen, and the "dog" who followed wherever she went, it didn't look like a lie...... After a little thought, I decided to continue following them, making sure that they were indeed camped somewhere else, and then report to the man behind me.
The general of his family said very clearly, this thing is done, they all have a lifetime of inexhaustible glory and wealth, if they mess up, they will all ...... "click", wipe their necks and kick their legs!
For the sake of his glory and wealth, the young man who was sent to inquire about the news thought that he was cautious and cautious, but Rao was like this, under Liu Qingxin's calculating and unintentional, he still had the only end of defeat, of course, this is a later story.
After following the people in the camp for breakfast, and being extremely diligent to help them dismantle the camp and bundle up their things, Carpenter Zhang, who was ordered by Liu Qingxin, came in a carriage pulling goods.
The carriage was loaded with things to set up the camp, and it was almost full, and if a few more medicine pickers sat up, there would be no way to "add stopper", Liu Qingxin pretended to be unintentional and looked at the young man who came to inquire about the news, gave Sister-in-law Jiang a look, and turned around and went to the woods at the foot of the mountain to find the crazy whimper who ran into the barren grass and dead trees.
How sharp are Gu Luochen's eyes?
At a glance, seeing that Liu Qingxin deliberately wanted to leave here and let Sister-in-law Jiang "take charge", she didn't speak, just hugged Xiaobao directly, and followed her steps.
He is not a curious person, but he is light on Liu, the woman he can't kill, but he always wants to find out, as if she will be the light in his life, so that he will no longer have to be silent in the dark, struggling and confused.
After a few days of "hunting", Woo has mastered the skills of catching hares, Liu Qingxin came to the camp to walk around such a circle, stay for an hour, it can catch five or six hares, take out the forest, put in a line in front of Liu Qingxin, and invite her to take credit, of course, its invitation, but also every time can succeed, Liu Qingxin, this generous owner, every time, will symbolically reward it something, at least, but also to touch its head, praise it.
"Whew, where are you, come back soon, we should go."
As she walked into the woods, she called her name, firstly, to call it back, and secondly, to let the young man outside hear that she was indeed in this woods, looking for her pet. (To be continued)
