Xiao Lei and I were stunned after listening to it, but we didn't expect the old man to be so scheming.

The old man continued: "Actually, the curative effect of the 'monkey face flower' that Lao Lu said is correct, it is indeed so miraculous, but why is he telling me this? It was because of my understanding of this flower, that Lao Lu had already seen it, so he explained the magic of this flower, not to be frank with us at all, but to show me how much he knew about the 'monkey face flower', so as to exchange more information from me. ”

When we both heard the old man say this, we couldn't help but be surprised, and almost in unison asked, "How do you know anything about this flower?" ”

The old man smiled slightly: "Lao Lu just said that he saw the 'Yin Qing Tree' turn red, and then he suddenly thought of the 'Monkey Face Flower', but in fact, this is not the case. The actual situation should be that he smelled the smell of the 'monkey face flower', and then he noticed that the 'shade tree' turned red, because the 'shade tree' encountered the 'monkey face grass', and the tips did turn red, but that kind of red was extremely faint, and if you didn't look closely, you couldn't find it at all.

Before he knew that there might be a 'monkey-faced flower' around him, how could he observe such a subtle change in the 'cloudy tree'? That's unreasonable, isn't it?

The real situation should be - he smelled the smell of the 'Monkey Face Flower' first, and then observed the changes of the surrounding 'Yin Qing Tree', that is to say, the 'Yin Qing Tree' is just a reference, and the most important thing is that he smelled the smell of the 'Monkey Face Flower' first. ”

"The smell of 'monkey face flowers'? Why didn't we smell it? Do we really have a 'monkey face flower' here? I asked in surprise - as the old man said, if there is a smell of "monkey face flowers" here, of course there should be "monkey face flowers".

The old man smiled and shook his head: "There are no 'monkey face flowers' here, and I haven't encountered that kind of grass in decades." ”

Hearing him say this, Xiao Lei and I were even more strange - since there is no "monkey face flower", how can there be the smell of "monkey face flower"?

As if he had guessed our thoughts, the old man went on to explain: "You may not have thought that my 'monkey eagle' could emit the same smell as the 'monkey face flower', but this smell is not strong, and unless you are extremely sensitive and familiar with this smell, you will not notice it at all.

That old Lu may be very familiar with this smell, so he can smell this smell, and when he smells the smell of the 'monkey eagle', he mistakenly thinks it is the smell of the 'monkey face flower', and he must think that my bag is the 'monkey face flower', so I pay so much attention to this bag, although I think this person has ulterior motives, and what he said is true or false, but I really didn't expect him to have a relationship with Japan. ”

I see! The old man's speculation is very reasonable, if Lao Lu really thinks that the bag is a "monkey face flower", he will definitely get this bag at any cost, and the waiter who broke into the room is very likely to be bought by him with a lot of money.

But there is one thing that we still wonder about - how can the "monkey eagle" have the smell of "monkey face grass"?

When we asked this question, the old man smiled mysteriously, lowered his voice, and said mysteriously: "I just told Lao Lu that the 'monkey face flower' can only grow on the bones of monsters, but in fact, it is a lie to him, the real place where the 'monkey face flower' grows, is actually the feces of this 'monkey eagle', for this reason, I also specially collected the feces of this 'monkey eagle' in order to collect this 'monkey face flower', and hoped to grow 'monkey face flowers' from this kind of dung, but these are all in vain, because there is no 'monkey face flower' The droppings of the monkey eagle will definitely grow into the 'monkey face flower' - in this regard, I didn't completely lie to that old Lu - in addition, it also needs the surrounding environment to cooperate, according to my research, the place where this 'monkey face flower' grows is generally the excrement of the 'monkey eagle' all year round.

The way the 'monkey eagle' excretes is very different from that of ordinary birds and birds, which usually have only one excretory tract, and the feces and urine come out of a hole, and they can excrete at any time in order to reduce the weight of their bodies when flying.

But the 'monkey eagle' excretes in a very different way - it has two excretion ports, one of which can be excreted at any time like ordinary birds and birds, and is a semi-liquid, semi-solid feces and urine composition.

But the other excretory hole should be unique to the 'monkey eagle'.

This excretory hole is dedicated to excreting a reddish solid, and it is excreted only about once every thirty days or so, and what is even stranger is that when excreting this solid feces, they always fly to a fixed place, instead of excreting everywhere.

This pale red feces has no smell at all, only a faint fishy smell, and this fishy smell is mixed with a little fragrance. In short, it is a very special smell, and coincidentally, the 'monkey eagle' also has this smell, but it is slightly lighter than this fecal smell. "That 'monkey face flower' must smell like this," I speculated based on what the old man had just said.

The old man nodded: "Yes." That's right, that's the smell of that 'monkey face flower', and it's kind of amazing. Also, when I said that I worshipped that Taoist priest as a teacher, I didn't make it up out of thin air, because my father was a Taoist priest when he was young, and he really practiced that school of feng shui, which is the one that is good at preserving corpses from decay.

As for the 'Monkey Eagle' and the 'Monkey Face Flower', I heard him talk about it when I was very young.

The old man said that the pale red 'monkey eagle' feces were called the 'Yin Pill Pill' by their faction, and this 'Yin Pill Pill' was extremely precious and could greatly slow down the decay of the corpse. ”

When I heard the word 'Yin Pill', I immediately thought of **, ha, what a strange name.

I thought so in my heart, but I said it unconsciously, after hearing my association, the old man and Xiao Lei both laughed at the old man's solemn explanation: "Ha, your association is quite rich, but 'pill' in the Tang Dynasty, refers to the meaning of feces, and the ancient meaning of 'pill' is still preserved in Japanese, and later extended to 'like the shape of dung' and 'a mass of things', you may know that in the past, Japanese ships would often be named 'so-and-so pills' or the like." ”

The old man's knowledge is profound enough, and a few words can give us a lot of knowledge.

"This kind of is only pulled once a month, and this cycle is very similar to a woman's menstruation", Xiao Lei also muttered beside him.

"Ha, you two young people, why are they all associated with the next three ways, ha, but in a sense, this association is not wrong, the 'Monkey Eagle' is originally negative, after eating that kind of monster, the skin and flesh of that monster will be in the belly of the 'Monkey Eagle' for about a month, and finally it will become that light red, just like Taoist alchemy, and the abdomen of the 'Monkey Eagle' is like a Dan furnace."

We think this analogy of the old man is quite interesting and appropriate.

After the old man's explanation, we found that the old man's accusations against Lao Lu were indeed true and false.

However, it is certain that this wonderful "monkey face flower" may be really difficult to find, because the "monkey eagle" has basically become extinct.

Without the "Monkey Eagle", there will be no "Monkey Eagle" droppings, and the "soil" on which the "Monkey Face Flower" grows will be gone. If the skin does not exist, the hair will be attached.

Xiao Lei and I also feel very sorry that such a precious and strategically important herb can no longer be found.

Especially Xiao Lei, as an officer who graduated from a military academy, has a deep understanding of the military significance of this medicinal material.

"In fact, there is no need to be so pessimistic, maybe this 'monkey face flower' is still there, we may underestimate Lao Lu, he has a deep understanding of this 'monkey face flower' in many ways."

As soon as the old man said this, he heard the "monkey eagle" next to him chirp a few more times, and nodded again and again, as if he agreed with the old man's inference.

This reaction of the "Monkey Eagle" made the old man suddenly excited, and he immediately turned around and asked the "Monkey Eagle": "Have you found anything?" ”

"Monkey Eagle" nodded again, and then, I saw "Monkey Eagle" stick out his tongue.

When I saw the tongue of the "monkey eagle", Xiao Lei and I were surprised, because its tongue was so special - more than a foot long, but no more than two inches wide, and at the end of the tongue, it was actually forked, which made me suddenly think of the core of a poisonous snake, which was terrifying to look at.

Maybe he was used to seeing it, the old man didn't look strange, he held the long tongue of "Monkey Eagle" with his hand, looked at it carefully, and didn't know what he was looking at.

Suddenly, I heard the old man shouting: "I guessed right, for that kind of 'monkey face flower', sure enough, Lao Lu knows a lot about it." ”

Xiao Lei and I were confused by him again - why did the old man come to such a conclusion just by looking at the tongue of the "monkey eagle"?

We hurriedly leaned over to look at the long tongue of the "monkey eagle".

After taking such a closer look, we found that on the tip of the tongue of the "monkey eagle", there was a golden thing, and when we looked closely, we found that it was a bug the size of a fly.

This insect has a golden yellow body, but no obvious head and tail, and has two pairs of tentacles and wings on the front and back of the round body, and the whole body is completely symmetrical.

What kind of bug is this?

The old man explained to us that this insect is called the 'headless golden bee', and that the smell they like to smell most and is the most sensitive smell is the smell of the "monkey face flower", or the smell of the "monkey eagle", or the smell of red feces pulled out by the "monkey eagle".

As long as there is this smell, the "headless golden bee" will fly past, so whether you are looking for the "monkey eagle", or the "monkey face flower", or the pale red droppings of the "monkey eagle", the "headless golden bee" is the most important guide.

Back then, the old man found the "monkey eagle" through guò bees.

But these "headless golden bees" are also extinct with the extinction of the "monkey eagle", why did they suddenly appear in this hotel today? This is likely to have something to do with that old Lu.

"Are these 'headless golden bees' released by Lao Lu?" The old man asked "Monkey Eagle" in a low voice, and "Monkey Eagle" nodded affirmatively.

But Xiao Lei and I are a little skeptical of the judgment of the "Monkey Eagle" - this "Monkey Eagle" has always been in the bag, and it can't see the outside at all, how can we be sure that the "headless golden bee" must be raised by Lao Lu?
