Don't look at the old woman's house as a garbage heap, her memory is amazingly good, and only she can pull out which thing is stuffed in which corner.

After a while, the large black and white jars were found, and there were as many as eight of them. He Lingchuan cautiously opened it to check, and then showed a comfortable smile:

"Great, no moisture." Then put it into the storage ring.

That's where the benefits of large storage space come in.

Shan Youjun took out a piece of silver and handed it to the old man: "Let's go." ”

Northeast of Bailu Town, abandoned mine pit.

This is a poor mine, the scale is very small, and the excavation period is only a dozen years. The cave had long since become a large puddle, the water was green and there were fish, and the dilapidated houses where the miners lived had new owners.

A large herd of war horses grazing in the woodland, and the pit is guarded by sentinels. In the dilapidated house, the military doctor was giving Bailiqing first aid.

After he was cut off by He Lingchuan's arm, he commanded the battle and the withdrawal of the army, and when he was snatched back by the reinforcements, he lost too much blood and his consciousness fell into the lake of mold.

Xu Yingxian, the lieutenant who was sent by Hong Chengluo to reinforce him, reported that his men and horses had crossed the river and returned from crossing the river, and he had used the river to shake off the "tail" that had been following behind.

The other three generals were also in the house, one of whom was named Tao Ze, and then asked Hong Chengluo: "General, what are we going to do in the future?" ”

Hong Chengluo's face was heavy.

Originally, the number of rangers was not much, and he was divided into two teams, just with the idea of a surprise attack. Bailu Town was personally led by him, and it was done, but Xinhuang was defeated, and 200 people were pasted in.

This was a heavy loss for the Xunzhou rangers behind enemy lines. In particular, there are many injured people, and the medicines and manpower for care are far from enough. The people brought back by Bailiqing just now had two more seriously injured and died.

"What else do you plan, naturally take advantage of the unstable heart of the Xiazhou people's army, and then burn the remaining half of the grain and grass, so that Zhao Pan's army will drink the northwest wind!" Another general slapped his thigh hard, "I didn't expect the governor of Xiazhou to come, behead the snake, capture the thief and capture the king...... Eight! ”

"That's right, as long as the governor of Xiazhou is done, the entire Yuanbei will be in chaos, and Zhao Pan's army will be defeated without a fight! General Hong, you are going to lead us to make a great contribution! ”

Although Bai Liqing was unconscious, the soldiers around him told him all about the Xinhuang ambush.

Tao Ze immediately poured cold water on the two: "We just lost two hundred people!" There are only a few people left, and you want to kill the governor of Xiazhou? Xinhuang Town was ambushed by General Baili, but was seriously injured and defeated. How are you and I better than General Baili? ”

The other two choked, but their expressions were unconvinced: "Isn't there still General Hong?" ”

A little-known governor of Xiazhou, can he fight for the prestigious General Hong?

"Shut up." Hong Cheng frowned when he saw Bai Liqing in a coma, and asked these people to turn down their voices, "The manager of Xiazhou was not killed, I don't know if it was luck or careful." "This bureau was laid out by his own hands, but He Chunhua dodged it, "It was his subordinates who were killed in the restaurant, which means that the person surnamed He probably did not show his signboard publicly." ”

Otherwise, the county order treats such a normal entertainment, what reason does He Chunhua have not to go?

The general said: "The governor of a state, do you want to secretly follow the grain transportation team north?" ”

"This person has some roads, he has been very high-profile since he arrived in Xiazhou Mansion, I heard that the four families of Dunyu are obedient and obedient, he will give money if he wants money, and he will give food if he wants food, otherwise Zhao Pan will not be able to win those two battles recently." When Hong Chengluo was a civilian in Bailu Town, he was also instinctively collecting intelligence, "I heard that he was originally a petty official on the western border of Kite, and he had many military exploits later. If you don't understand this person's temperament, the battle that follows will not be easy to fight. ”

Just then, a sentry from outside rushed in and reported:

"Report, there is a situation in heaven!"

When everyone went out to take a look, a black dot in the sky was getting bigger and bigger, and it was coming towards the mine.

Hong Cheng glanced at it and said, "Dong Rui is back." ”

The generals around him couldn't help but sneer: "Seeing that this person is coaxing all day long, his eyes are on the top of his head, General Hong sent him to help General Baili, but the result was also a big defeat!" ”

The strange bird soon landed on the edge of the pit, and the man was silent.

Dong Rui jumped off the back of the bird, and everyone else saw that he had a strip of cloth wrapped in his palm, holding a monkey in his arms, his clothes were full of blood, and the monkey was dying with his eyes closed.

He looked embarrassed, as if he was not much stronger than Bailiqing.

This is a wanted criminal pardoned by the Frost Leaf National Division, and he was a guest during the Xunzhou cavalry operation. Hong Chengluo remained polite to him, and stepped forward to ask: "The injury is serious, do you want to call a military doctor?" ”

He heard Bai Liqing's subordinates who fled back say that the monkey that Dong Rui brought with him could transform into a giant ape, with infinite strength, and even fearless of the army.

As soon as Hong Chengluo heard it, he understood where the value of this "guest qing" was.

"You can't heal its wounds." Dong Rui's face turned pale, "The life-saving elixir was robbed, what about the ghost ginseng you promised me?" Get it! ”

He spoke unceremoniously, and Hong Chengluo didn't care about him, so he hesitated for a moment before entering the house and said to the military doctor who was taking care of Bailiqing: "Bring the rest of the ghost head ginseng." ”

The military doctor was stunned, and found a jade box in the medicine on the table and handed it over.

Hong Chengluo opened the box, and there was half a green-skinned ginseng lying inside, and the whole ginseng looked like a howling ghost, and even the expression was subtle and delicate.

However, although this thing is named "ginseng", it is not actually ginseng, but a mutated variety of aconitum grass, which can change its toxicity according to the nutrients ingested and the surrounding environment.

There is only the upper half of the ginseng left, that is, only above the "mouth". So the expression is far less hideous.

Dong Rui followed up and took a look, and was displeased: "Half a branch? This is not in line with our agreement! ”

"Human lives are at stake, and many of the soldiers came back from Xinhuang and were seriously injured and dying, so I authorized the military doctor to use it to save people first." Hong Chengluo also knew that he was at a loss, and said softly, "You take this half of it first, and after I return to Xunzhou, I will apply for one more for you." ”

"One more?" Dong Rui didn't laugh angrily, "Are you kidding me?" Do you know how hard it is to get ginseng? ”

In order to cultivate the ghost head ginseng, it is necessary to plant the aconitum grass that has become a fine into the abdomen of a powerful monster or a person in the Dao Gate, and this step must be planted alive.

The aconitum grass must have been old; However, there is a year of aconitum grass, but it may not be able to become fine. This is the first threshold.

The aconitum can not only draw nutrients from the soil, but also from the flesh and blood.

After planting in this way for seven months, it may take one or two petri dishes to change, and the "ghost head" will be formed, at this time it will have the effect of "great poison and great tonics", the effect is equivalent to a heart shot + big tonic pills, and if used well, the injured can be directly dragged back from the brink of death.

Hong Chengluo smiled: "Marshal Nian or Bejia Country, there will be a way." ”

In the past, Dong Rui flicked his sleeves and left, and would never say half a word.

But now the ghost ape's injury is really critical, and Dong Rui has no time to worry about him, so he grabbed the treasure ginseng, chose another broken house, and went to the scene to make medicine.

Devil's head ginseng can't be taken directly, he has to grind off most of the toxicity first.

Hong Chengluo followed, watching the demon puppet master's smooth operation, although he was busy, it seemed that his medical skills were much stronger than the military doctors in their team.

To refine a demon puppet, it is inevitable to deal with biological bodies, use drugs and use knives, and it is strange if you are not proficient.

"Who seriously injured the ghost ape?" Hong Seungluo wanted to hear first-hand combat information.

Dong Rui didn't raise his head, only squeezed out a few words from his teeth: "The father and son of the He family!" "Then he told me about the previous battle." I have a vendetta with them. ”

Hong Chengluo immediately became interested: "What's going on?" ”

Dong Rui then briefly explained the failed ambush in Luming Garden in Shihuan City, and then said hatefully: "If they hadn't been in the way, Ke Jihai would have died a long time ago." ”

As soon as Ke Jihai died, there was one less general of the Kite Kingdom who could stop Da Sima.

Hong Chengluo asked him: "You made a special trip to kill Ke Jihai?" ”

“…… and He Chunhua. Dong Rui glanced at him, "Anyway, they are in the front and back carriages, and I thought about doing it together by the way." ”

He made the big mistake of being greedy and not chewing too much.

"It sounds like they have a lot of useful magic weapons, and they also have some hands around them." Hong Chengluo asked him, "Is there more information about this father and son?" ”

"Yes. Sun Fuping died at his hands. ”

Hong Cheng was slightly moved: "What, he killed Sun Guoshi of the Kite Kingdom?" ”

"Yes, I heard that this accident happened in the Panlong Desert, and no one knows the real details. Anyway, Sun Fuping and Nian Zanli's son Nian Songyu tricked his father and son into sending troops into the ancient city of Panlong to hunt for treasure, but the treasure was not found, and the two did not come out, only the father and son of the He family came back alive - in the windy season of the Panlong Desert. It is said that in that season, no living creatures can leave the Panlong Desert. ”

Hong Chengluo frowned: "How can you despise such a character?" ”

Dong Rui coughed lightly: "He Chunhua's cultivation is not very good, I think this kind of person can do the national teacher Sun Fuping mostly by luck, careless." ”

"By the way, his entire family was killed by the old emperor."

"Which old emperor?" This information is too important for Hong Chengluo.

"The father of the current emperor of the Kite Kingdom." Dong Rui wiped the blood on his hands with a towel, "It was said that it was a mistaken belief in gluttony, and the He family was beheaded, even the six-year-old boy was not spared, only He Chunhua escaped death alone." The old emperor did not pursue him anymore and sent him to a small border town. ”

"If you don't cut the grass and don't eradicate the roots, most of you feel guilty." Hong Chengluo smiled, "That's it, He Chunhua is still willing to be an official in the Kite Country?" ”

"What if it weren't?" Dong Rui disagreed, "What other good way can he have?" ”

Hong Chengluo shook his head: "The Kite Kingdom is only sixty years old, and the hearts and traditions of the people cannot be compared with a long-standing ancient country like Bega. How many loyal thoughts do they have here? Hmmm—"

He fell into deep thought: "He Chunhua is carrying the grievances of his family, and he is willing to die for the kite country, this person should be a scheming and profit-seeking character." ”
