Chapter 144: The Zhou Family in the Northland (II)

Xu Changqing thought for a moment, then looked at Zhou Zhenglin, who was looking anxious, nodded slightly, and said, "I have a total of ten green jade fruits here, and I can probably refine seven Shangqing Qi Pills, and your wife can use two at most." I can give you the green jade fruit, and I don't want your money and gifts, just wait for the day of Dancheng and divide me with four pieces!"

"This ......" Zhou Zhenglin hesitated for a moment, feeling that he was really at a loss in this way, but then he thought about it again, he was refining the pill to make up for his wife's congenital deficiencies, as long as he had his wife's share, it would be enough, and it didn't matter if he wanted anything else. After figuring it out, he nodded at Xu Changqing and said, "Okay! That's it! It's just that refining the pill will take a little time, and it may take Mr. Xu to stay at my house for a few days." ”

"It doesn't matter, I'm just going to Zhoujiazhai to do something!" Xu Changqing took out the ten green jade fruits from his sleeve, handed them to Zhou Zhenglin, and then carefully looked at Zhou Zhenglin's face.

Zhou Zhenglin hurriedly took the green jade fruit, took a jade box from the hand of the nurse, put it in it, and then carefully put it in his arms, for fear of losing it. After putting it away, he asked Xu Changqing curiously: "Mr. Xu, I don't know what to do when I go to Zhoujiazhai? ”

Xu Changqing smiled and said, "If I want to meet the two little immortals who live in your Zhou family, I wonder if Young Master Zhou can introduce them?"

After hearing this, Zhou Zhenglin smiled a little embarrassedly, and said apologetically: "I'm really sorry! I can't make the decision about the two little immortals! After my grandfather and great-grandmother both spoke, no one is allowed to break the rules, even if my relatives want to see those two little immortals and ask for divination, they can only wait in line according to the rules! I really can't help it. ”

Xu Changqing was a little surprised, and said in a slightly appreciative tone: "It seems that your Zhou family's style is very regular!

Zhou Zhenglin said modestly: "Mr. has won the award! What is this?"

After that, Xu Changqing talked with Zhou Zhenglin for more than an hour, and the two sides exchanged alchemy and pharmaceutical science. Although Xu Changqing is not good at alchemy, with his medical knowledge in the cultivation world and some Western medical skills he has learned before, it is enough to make Zhou Zhenglin stunned, and he has the intention of hating to see each other late. And Xu Changqing also learned a lot of traditional secular medicine recipes from Zhou Zhenglin's mouth, many of which only need to change one or two flavors, which is a good cultivation elixir.

Although Zhoujiazhai is only more than 40 miles away from Chaigoubao, most of them are mountain roads that need to be detoured, and the forests add up to more than 100 miles. If you leave in the afternoon, you will definitely not be able to rush back before dark, so Zhou Zhenglin stayed in the restaurant and returned to Zhoujiazhai early tomorrow morning. Xu Changqing was also placed next to Zhou Zhenglin's room, and after dinner, Zhou Zhenglin went to Xu Changqing's room to have a long talk, from geographical anecdotes to China's actual politics. Perhaps because his status in the Zhou family was too noble and he had no friends, the knowledgeable Xu Changqing was soon regarded by him as a good teacher.

In the early morning of the next day, because he talked with Xu Changqing all night last night, Zhou Zhenglin had just got into the carriage, and the person fell asleep in the carriage. Sleep is dispensable for Xu Changqing, after Zhou Zhenglin fell asleep, Xu Changqing lifted the curtain and looked at the scenery outside the window. At this time, he saw that the four corners of the carriage and the canopy were hung with four gossip bronze mirrors, and then he looked at the carriage behind him as well, and every nurse was dressed in black clothes, and tied a red belt soaked in rooster blood, and every fork in the road was thrown a handful of money.

Seeing this situation, Xu Changqing couldn't help frowning slightly, feeling a little weird atmosphere, so he lifted the curtain, came to the outside of the car, sat next to the car, hugged his fist at the servant who was driving the car, and said, "Hello! ”

The servant obviously didn't expect Xu Changqing to greet him, and hurriedly replied: "If you return to the master, you will not be surnamed Zhang!"

Xu Changqing took out a Huishang Zhuang ticket from his arms, put it in front of the servant, and said, "I have something I want to ask, and I hope Brother Zhang will tell me!"

"Look at what you said, if you have something to say, just ask, the little one knows everything, and the words are endless!" The servant who was driving the car was immediately attracted by the money, opened his eyes wide, and hurriedly took the money into his arms while the guards who were riding on horses around him had not noticed.

Xu Changqing smiled, lifted his guard first, and asked, "Brother Zhang is the long-term worker of the Zhou family?"

"I want to, but others don't want it!" The servant looked at it with envy, and several subordinates with different costumes on the horse, said: "The salary of the Zhou family is the highest in this area, but the requirements for hiring long-term workers are also very high, and others like me can't look down on it, so I can only catch the carriage outside the village, do short-term work, and eat with a mouthful of food! If it weren't for the Zhou family's carriage being occupied by the guests this time, how could it be the turn of someone like me to drive the car for the little young master of the Zhou family?" If you catch up with the car this time, you may be favored by the little young master, and it is not necessary to recruit as a long-term worker!"

Xu Changqing had already understood that the servant was a talkative person, so after asking a few more irrelevant questions, he got to the point, pointed to the gossip mirror hanging on the car and the nursing courtyard that sprinkled the money, and asked, "Is this the custom of your people here?"

"Master, you're laughing!" said the servant with a smile, "How can there be such a custom in the world?"

"Since it's not a custom," Xu Changqing pretended to think, and then asked, "Could it be that you have encountered something unclean?"

"How do you always know?" the servant asked as he looked at Xu Changqing in surprise.

Xu Changqing smiled, pointed to the gossip bronze mirror and other items to ward off evil spirits, and said, "If you don't encounter something unclean, why hang these things to ward off evil spirits?"

"Hehe! It seems that you also know a lot!" The nurse smiled, looked around again, and saw that there were no other nurses beside him, so he whispered: "I see that you are a friend of the little young master, and I won't hide it from you, in fact, this is the seventh young master of the Zhou family who caused trouble! A few days ago, he abandoned a woman from a good family, and the woman from a good family later committed suicide on the night of the Dragon Boat Festival on the fifth day of the fifth month of May, but I didn't expect her ghost to linger, and the Zhou family village was not peaceful, but fortunately, there was a little fairy to suppress the fierce ghost and force out of the Zhou family village. ”
