Chapter 187: The Fragrance of Flowers

The morning sun tore through the mist at the top of the mountain, jumped to the top of the mountain, and fell a veil of sunlight.

"Stay longer?"

Shangguan Li shook his head, as if he didn't understand the meaning of this sentence.

"Yes."

Chen Sheng said.

"We haven't had outsiders in our village for a long time, and last night the village chief heard about the experience of the two and decided to leave the two girls to recuperate for a while."

It was as if that were the case.

Shangguan Li sneered in his heart, those fogs are a chronic poison, and they won't have any obvious effect for a day or two, they will only feel a little tired, especially for people who are not in good health.

But after three days, the physical condition will deteriorate.

Although Shangguan Li felt that the purpose of these people was not to kill them, she really didn't agree with this way of keeping people.

She shook her head.

"No, we have to go into the city and find the enemy. Thank you for your kindness, but we should be fine after one night. ”

Chen Sheng didn't seem surprised by this answer, his gaze staggered a little, and fell on the "weak and helpless" Situ on the door frame.

"Sister Ling's body, is it already well?"

Situ's face was a little stiff, and he didn't know for a while whether he should pretend to be okay or continue to pretend to be sick and weak.

Fortunately, Shangguan Li reached out and pulled her arm, and after a while, she frowned slightly and said in a deep voice.

"Did you do anything last night?"

A look of surprise flashed in Chen Sheng's eyes, but he quickly covered it up.

Xitu looked at Shangguan Li's eyes and said thoughtfully.

"No, no. Sister, what's wrong with me? ”

Her eyes are already big, as bright as black grapes, and when she stares at people, the four words Chu Chu are simply born for her.

Shangguan Li sighed in her heart, she still has this kind of skill? How do you not know.

"Your illness seems to have worsened, I'm afraid it's ......"

She paused, then looked at Chen Sheng and sighed.

"I'm afraid I'm really going to trouble you."

Chen Sheng nodded.

"You're welcome."

As he spoke, he pointed to the woman behind him.

"If you need anything here, just tell Grandma, she lives on the other side."

Shangguan Li looked at the path in front of the peach tree, and there was a wooden house surrounded by a vegetable patch in front of the right on the opposite side of the path, and she nodded her chin.

"Thank you."

"Not necessarily. I'm going up the mountain, if there's anything you can tell Grandma. ”

After saying that, he didn't stay long, turned around and left.

Although the grandmother's face was impatient, her hands and feet were very diligent, and before Shangguan Li and Xitu could say anything, she had already rolled up her sleeves and cleaned the inside and outside of the grass house.

She didn't say a word halfway, and even if Situ asked her, she just snorted coldly.

So Shangguan Li and Xitu could only watch her busy, and an hour later, she put down the small basket containing vegetables and went home.

"It's inexplicable."

Situ held back for a long time, and finally let out this sigh in amazement.

"Sister, what do you mean by that?"

Shangguan Li picked up the vegetables sent and said softly when he heard the words.

"There's no gratuitous courtesy, probably because they want us to help do something."

"Drugged us in the middle of the night and let us help?"

Situ lowered his voice, his tone very disdainful.

I don't want her to help, I guess I won't be drugged. Shangguan Li knew in his heart, and estimated that the people in this village would want to wait a few more days, wait for the medicinal properties of the poison to be more advanced, and then make a move.

But time was tight, and she didn't want to waste time waiting.

So she shook off the droplets of water from the leaves and stood up.

"Go to the elder or the village chief, and make it clear."

Shangguan Li knocked on the door of Grandma's house with Xitu.

"Who?"

Isn't that talking?

Situ glared silently at the closed door.

Shangguan Li sniffled and said quietly.

"We just met, I want to find the village chief, does Grandma know where he lives?"

There was silence on the other end of the door, and his voice was a little incoherent, as if something had choked.

"Ahem, follow the road outside, and the house closest to the river is."

"Thank you."

Shangguan Li pulled Xitu out of the wooden house, the mist on the road had not completely dissipated, and the sky was still dark, but most of the people in the village had already woken up.

"Sister, she didn't dare to let us in, could it be that she was doing something unseemly?"

Shangguan Li half-hung her head, her pale eyes reflected the cool mist, showing a trace of impersonal coldness, she said.

"I just smell it...... With the smell of flowers. ”

"What?!"

As soon as Situ heard this, he immediately exploded.

"That's not ......"

She was only halfway through her sentence, because one of the villagers happened to pass by and greeted them quite kindly.

It wasn't until the man left that Situ lowered his voice.

"Isn't that the legendary evil flower that can control the mind, how could it appear in such a place?"

Shangguan Li glanced at her, smiling rather than smiling.

"You said it was a legendary flower, what did you do with such a big reaction?"

The little girl's expression froze, she reached out and rubbed the corners of her eyes, and snorted.

"Ah, that's it."

"Come on."

Shangguan Li interrupted her embarrassment, her voice calm.

"If you don't want to say it, don't say it, lying is not for your brain."

When the two of them walked to the river, they happened to see the elder who welcomed them into the village last night walking in front of the door.

Especially a white beard, the standard fairy wind bone image.

When he saw the two of them, he smiled very kindly.

"Wake up so early......

"What do you want me to cure?"

Shangguan Li's voice was cold, and it was very beautiful when it was in harmony with the gurgling river.

The elder was stunned, and without waiting for him to explain anything, Shangguan Li said coldly.

"I'll guess, sweet scent, miasma, and...... With a ghostly flower, is it poisonous? And it's a poison that can destroy people's minds. ”

The elder stared at a pair of cloudy eyes, his face full of disbelief.

"You, how did you ......"

Shangguan Li ruffled a handful of Xitu's hair, ignoring the fierce resistance in her eyes, and said leisurely.

"How do I know? If you eat something like Youhua directly, you will become an idiot at least and die at worst. But if it is boiled into a balm, it is a rare thing to calm the spirits. ”

She stared at the elder's rapidly changing face and smiled.

"And it just happens to be a sweet fragrance that is very similar to syrup, and if you are familiar with this medicine, you will smell it as soon as you smell it. This village ...... This smell is everywhere. ”

And just now she also had a close "visit" in front of Grandma's door, which is even more certain.

Shangguan Li raised his chin slightly, and his momentum suddenly appeared.

"Why don't you invite us in and sit down?"
