Chapter 8: The Strange Affair of Longshan (5)

The summer night in the countryside is less stuffy during the day, less noisy in the city, and more alive in nature. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

The dimly lit mourning hall, the flickering candle seedlings, and the three or two people standing on the side waiting for the results seemed to predict that something unusual was destined to happen this night.

Ming Yuan turned around, walked towards the people waiting for the results, and said to the boss: "Boss, please help us find a glass bottle with a stopper and a small spoon!" ”

"Good! No problem! Is there anything else you need? The boss asked.

"I don't need it for the time being, please hurry up!" Ming Yuan shook his head and said.

"Good!" After saying that, the boss went into the back room with Lao Lin to look for things.

After a while, the boss and Lao Lin came out of the back kitchen, the boss held a glass bottle of canned sugar water and a small spoon in his hand, and walked quickly towards Ming Yuan.

"There is no glass bottle with a stopper, only this one with a lid, can it be used?" The boss handed it to Ming Yuan, pointed to the bottle, and asked.

"Yo~, it's fast! It's okay, that's it, thanks! Mingyuan took the glass bottle and the small spoon, thanked him, and then turned around and walked towards tomorrow.

Tomorrow heard the footsteps of Mingyuan walking in, and said without looking back: "Give it to me!" ”

"Don't say thank you either!" Ming Yuan muttered, but still handed the glass bottle and small spoon with the lid open to Ming Ri.

Tomorrow took the bottle and the small spoon, used the small spoon around a small pimple on the corpse's head, gently scraped some white substance, and then put it into the glass bottle with the spoon, and then took the lid from Ming Yuan's hand and gently closed it.

Tomorrow walked up to the boss and Lao Lin and said, "Take a raw egg, prepare a small basin of hot water, the water doesn't need too much, two fingers deep is enough, then pour in some stove ash, stir well, if I guess correctly, I will know the result immediately." ”

"Really? Great, I'll get it right away. Lao Lin hurriedly ran into the back room.

Seeing Lao Lin running into the back room, the boss also asked anxiously: "Immortal Master, what is this white one!" ”

"I'm not sure about this thing, but now I can only guess what it is, and I'll try it until I know." Tomorrow shook his head and said.

As soon as the words were finished, Lao Lin had already come out with a hot water basin, and the boss found a stool, took the hot water, and put it on the stool.

At this time, Tomorrow took out a small brown bottle from the package, unscrewed the lid, and poured a little into the hot water basin.

"What about raw eggs?" Tomorrow asked

"Oh~ in my pocket, give." Lao Lin almost forgot that there was such a thing as eggs, and as soon as he asked tomorrow, he quickly took out the eggs and handed them to him.

Tomorrow put the glass bottle containing the white substance scraped from the corpse's head on a stool, open the lid, then knock the egg, break the eggshell in half from the middle, strain it left and right, get all the egg whites into the bottle, and then put the glass bottle in the middle of the hot water basin.

"Wait, in ten minutes or so, see!" Tomorrow pulled up a chair and sat down.

Mingyuan walked behind Mingri, rubbed Mingri's shoulder, and whispered in Mingri's ear: "Hey~, second uncle, it's mysterious, this trick is okay." ”

"Stinky boy, you know a! This is not a trick. Tomorrow smiled, raised his hand to draw Ming Yuan.

Ming Yuan hurriedly dodged, glared at him, and roared, "I'll wipe it!" You've just touched something with this hand, so don't wave it, okay? ”

"Labor and management just raise their hands, look at you scared~~~" Tomorrow raised his hand with rubber gloves and said disdainfully.

"Then there are mosquitoes that want to bite me."

"But second uncle, what did you just pour into it?" Ming Yuan continued to pinch Tomorrow's shoulders and asked attentively.

"Want to know?"

"Yes!"

"Why should I tell you!"

"I~, labor and management don't like to listen to it!"

"Forget it, I was going to say it, but you don't like to hear it, so I won't say it."

"Don't~~, second uncle, you better hurry up, otherwise how can I learn your skills!" Ming Yuan knocked on the shoulder for Tomorrow and said flatteringly.

"Ah~, Immortal Master, Immortal Master, there's something moving in the bottle." Lao Lin and the boss were frightened by the situation in front of them and hurriedly ran behind Tomorrow.

"Then my guess is right." Tomorrow pulled the chair closer, stared at the glass bottle, and said.

"Immortal Master, what the hell is this? Will you climb out? The boss said tremblingly.

"It doesn't matter! This thing has no vitality anymore, and it will die if it crawls out and falls into this water. ”

"Second uncle, what the hell is this?"

"When I was in Ziyunguan, my master gave me a book called "The Remains of Strange Things", and there was a record in the book, which was extremely similar. In ancient times, there was a wealthy merchant who was very fond of peach wood, so he sent people to look for it, and even traveled thousands of miles to find it. The peach wood he found back, he will ask people to carve and shape, large pieces are placed at home, which is convenient for guests to appreciate, and small pieces are worn on the body, and they can be played with from time to time. One day, the rich businessman suddenly fell ill, a cyst on the top of his head, his shoulders were covered with dander, he was sick in bed and could not walk, his family looked for famous doctors all over the country, and the family came to wave after wave of doctors, but they didn't see what was going on, and later, a barefoot doctor passed by, saying that he knew what the situation was, with a glimmer of hope, the rich businessman agreed to be treated by the barefoot doctor, and the barefoot doctor said that he had an exclusive secret recipe and could not be passed on, and the patient would be in some pain, but there was no big problem. So he and the rich merchant were left in the room, and after a while, the frightened cries of the rich merchant were heard, and because the door was locked, the people outside did not know what was going on inside, but they only knew that the barefoot doctor had brought out a clay pot, and in less than five days, the rich merchant could walk on the ground, but he wore a hat all day long. Tomorrow said slowly.

"People are sick in bed, how can they scream when they are being treated? And the door is locked, which is really weird! Why did you wear a hat later? Is this disease caused by peach wood? Ming Yuan asked a series of questions like a cannonball.

"I don't want others to see it, don't you shout when it hurts, and the fools can hear it and have something to do with the peach wood."

"Labor and management are just asking, is it okay not to get excited?"

"Yes, I didn't say I wouldn't ask you, I didn't answer your question."

"Ah Ri, don't talk so much, you haven't said what this thing is?" Ming Yuan asked impatiently.
