Chapter Eighty-Four: Boiling Tung Oil Seeds

After the third aunt finished speaking, she took a deep breath, and just inhaled the pungent smell.

"Ahem, ahem!" She began to cough desperately,

Ye Jinyan walked up to her, stretched out her hand and patted her back, and said apologetically: "Third aunt, are you okay?" ”

"I didn't ...... It's okay. She patted her chest and breathed a sigh of relief.

Ye Jinyan glanced at the crumbling house and said, "I saw a lot of termites running out of the wood when I burned it before, it looks quite useful, I'll take a look at it, if it really doesn't work, I'll pour that thing down." ”

The third aunt sighed: "It's useful, in fact, I'm not here to tell you how this smell is, I just want to help you." It's okay, my house is far away, and I can't smell anything, as long as you are careful not to hurt yourself. ”

Ye Jinyan nodded and said obediently, "I'll pay attention." ”

She finally sent the third aunt away, but the "guest" came again.

They are a couple, and the man is draped in a full tiger skin and looks like he should be a hunter. And the woman next to him was even stronger than him.

They covered their noses and asked Ye Jinyan, "What are you burning at home?" The smell is so bad, can you stop burning, I'm dying of stinking! ”

Ye Jinyan replied patiently: "I'm sorry, this smell will disappear soon." ”

She said this sentence quite weakly, after all, it was the first time she cooked tung oil seeds.

Although the couple looked fierce and looked bad, after Ye Jinyan told them this, they just let her throw away this stinky thing as soon as possible.

Ye Jinyan closed the door, and just wanted to breathe a sigh of relief when he heard a soft cry behind him.

"Sister......

Ye Jinyu stretched out her hand and wiped her eyes, looking at Ye Jinyan in a daze, "What smells so bad?" ”

Ye Jinyan suddenly had two heads and two big, she thought that there were only a few people looking for her, why did they come one after another, even Ye Jinyu couldn't stand the smell?

Ye Jinyan wanted to explain to Ye Jinyu, but before she could speak, she saw Ye Jinyu yawn and asked, "Sister, is it the smell from our stove room, it stinks." ”

Ye Jinyan wanted to emphasize: This smell is not stinky, but pungent.

"It's a new approach that I have come up with, and it works especially well for termites." Ye Jinyan covered his nose and said without blushing and without a heartbeat.

"Huh?" Ye Jinyu's face fell, "That...... When will the smell go away? ”

Ye Jinyan was also stunned, Xue Shenxing didn't seem to say how long it would take to cook before.

She thought for a long time and said seriously: "The longer the better......"

She decided to do her best, and it seemed to her that the more time passed, the better, but in the last few days there had been three or four times as many people visiting as usual......

Ye Jinyan boiled the tung oil seeds for several days, and finally smoked the termites almost completely.

Although she can't inspect every corner of the house, the house hasn't fallen anymore in the last few days, and she can't usually see the white larvae.

Ye Jinyan poured all the pot of water as she wished, and she carefully covered her nose when she poured it.

The water had been boiled for so many days, and the moment it was poured out, the smell rose all of a sudden, and the smell came to her face, making her faint.

The villagers who wanted to kill the bear before didn't even see the bear hair, but every time they were able to return with a full load. There are so many animals in the forest, wild fruits growing everywhere, they don't need to put too much effort into finding food.

The villagers were happy, but Li Erjian was very disappointed and drunk all day long.

Seeing that their fighting spirit was slowly crushed, Ye Jinyan took Xue Shenxing back to the cave.

Looking at the wound that had almost recovered from the scab, Ye Jinyan asked curiously, "Is it still painful?" ”

Xue Shenxing sighed, "Hurt your muscles and bones for a hundred days, do you feel pain?" ”

His words choked Ye Jinyan all of a sudden, Ye Jinyan took out a book from his arms and threw it to Xue Shenxing, and said, "Didn't you ask me to bring you a few books a few days ago?" Here you go. ”

After so many days, Ye Jinyan was still thinking about what he said before, Xue Shenxing's heart warmed, but he glanced at the book in his hand, was stunned for a while, and asked, "You show me the Three Character Sutra?" ”

The Three Character Scripture is a book that he has been familiar with when he was four or five years old, and although he can feel the joy of his childhood when he revisits it, he really can't look at the Three Character Sutra now.

Ye Jinyan frowned, saw the disgust in his eyes, and asked rhetorically, "Then what book do you want to read?" Four Books and Five Classics? ”

Speaking of the Four Books and Five Classics, her family does have them.

Xue Shenxing shook his head and said lazily: "I'm tired of reading the Four Books and Five Classics, I want to read Zhou Yi and the Yellow Emperor's Neijing, I can't move my whole body now, and I have to learn some herbs by myself to save my life." ”

Zhou Yi is a book of divination, Ye Jinyan has heard of it before; The Yellow Emperor's Neijing is a book of herbs and medicine, which is generally only read by those who study medicine.

Ye Jinyan didn't say anything, but looked at Xue Shenxing.

Xue Shenxing was lying on the straw and looking at the roof of the cave, and suddenly found that the surroundings were quiet, and he turned his head curiously but just met Ye Jinyan's inquiring gaze,

"Ahem...... "Ahem," he choked on his own saliva and hurriedly explained, "My memory seems to have recovered a little. ”

"Recovered a little?" Ye Jinyan asked in surprise.

"Well, I used to be a poor talent, and I depended on my mother for my life." Saying that, he sighed, his eyes deep, "I don't know if my mother is okay now." ”

Ye Jinyan retracted her gaze, it was even more strange, since Xue Shenxing was not a killer, wouldn't it be that all her guesses were wrong.

"By the way, since you're just a poor talent, then why do those killers want to kill you?" This is what Ye Jinyan wants to know the most.

Xue Shenxing sighed faintly, "I just recovered some memories, I can't think of anything else at all, maybe it's because the question you asked before stimulated me." ”

Ye Jinyan also felt some truth after hearing it, maybe those killers chased him because he offended some powerful person.

Xue Shenxing vaguely saw the loss in Ye Jinyan's eyes, and he couldn't help but ask with some curiosity: "You don't seem to want me to be a Xiucai." ”

Ye Jinyan turned his head and said lightly: "No, you read it wrong." ”

"And said no." Xue Shenxing seemed to grab her pigtails and said, "Your expression is a little colder now than just now. ”

In ancient times, there were a lot of talents, and there were many pedantic, but it seems that Xue Shenxing is not like a pedantic person, since he is a talent, then he may be able to do himself a favor.

Ye Jinyan's eyes turned around and changed the topic, "Have you ever taken the children's exam?" ”

"Of course I passed the exam, the children's exam is very simple, and I passed it in one go." Xue Shen looked like he was talking nonsense with his eyes open, but Ye Jinyan naturally believed it.

"How easy is the child exam?" Ye Jinyan asked strangely.

"Of course." Xue Shenxing put aside the three-character scripture in his hand and sat up.

The way he sat up, three points noble and seven points cold, the smile on the corner of his mouth offset his coldness.
