Yuan Bao has also heard a lot of strange rumors in the capital with Xianghua in the past few days, so he jumped on the edge of the box and looked at the bones.

He was bigger than the average cat, and he was especially obese in the winter, but in the summer he seemed to be out of breath and in a vigorous posture, so he turned back and forth on the edge of the box a few times, and actually stood very steadily.

"Meow~"

Yuan Bao found something, suddenly jumped into the box, and ran away with the thing in his mouth.

Xianghua hurriedly chased after her.

The ingots ran until they reached a large bare stone slab before stopping, snorting, and spitting out the contents of their mouths.

Xianghua looked at it and saw that it was something like a black rope with a black curl, so she pushed it with her toes, but the thing was obviously burnt.

"What is this?"

"Bugs." Yuan Bao said.

Xianghua frowned, squatted down and took a closer look. It's not so much a bug as an earthworm-like thing. She was about to play with her hand to take a look, but Yuan Bao stopped her.

"Take a closer look."

Xianghua didn't know what he meant, and looked intently for a while, and saw that the blackened insect suddenly moved, and then straightened out her long body, probed her head around for a while, and then got up in one direction.

Xianghua was so frightened that she took several steps back.

"Isn't it dead?"

"This is a Gu worm, it's not so easy to die."

Yuan Bao stretched out his claws to slap the insect to death, Xianghua hurriedly stopped him, but Yuan Bao slapped the Gu insect unhurriedly, and the Gu insect was pressed to the ground and stunned for a moment, and then got up again.

"Don't worry, it won't dare do anything here." Yuan Bao said slowly, "Why can't you always remember that you are the one who has the Phoenix Gem?" The king of beasts has to listen to you, such a Gu worm is considered old. ”

Xianghua was reminded by him, and then she remembered this. The direction in which this Gu worm crawled was indeed the opposite side of Xianghua, and Xianghua felt a little relieved.

"This Gu worm is attached to corpses, and this thing is the root cause of turning people into walking dead." Xianghua frowned and said, "But this fire can't even burn people's flesh and skin, and it can't burn this bug, can't this bug be killed?" ”

Yuan Bao sat on the ground, his long tail swinging around: "It's not so scary, no matter how much this insect is, it can't be a steel and iron bone, it will naturally burn to death, but the previous fire was too small and it didn't die." ”

Xianghua asked, "How big of a fire?" ”

Yuan Bao thought for a while: "If you throw it in a porcelain kiln and burn it for a day, you will die." ”

Xianghua: "......"

Although this insect is not steel and iron bones, it is about the same level as Sun Dasheng's monkey hair.

But it's just a little troublesome, and it's not at a loss now.

Xianghua asked, "As long as there is a phoenix gem, these Gu worms won't dare to make trouble?" ”

Yuan Bao said: "Words can't be said so simply. In your words, the phoenix gem is like a sword of Shang Fang, this sword is everywhere, but if you really encounter someone who is crazy and stupid and can't listen to words, the sword is just a sword, and the stone is just a stone. ”

A good "sword is just a sword, and a stone is just a stone".

Xianghua said angrily: "Good guy, bugs are also divided into smart bugs and dementia bugs?" ”

"Is that not it?" Yuan Bao Zhenzhen said, "There are also three, six, nine and so on." ”

Xianghua glared and gave up arguing with him.

She turned and snapped off two branches, picked up the black charcoal-like worm and walked out. Although this Gu worm is a smart worm, Xianghua can't keep it.

Ying'er brought her sister's bones back to Huangni Village for burial and held a vigil for her.

Xianghua's family affairs have been handed over to her father and Xiangmiao to manage, but the tea in Baishi Village still needs to be asked by her in person.

There is a princess and Qian Xiaoman matchmaking, and Xianghua quickly connects with the big tea merchants in Jiangnan.

In May, Xianghua had already sent a batch of tea leaves, and they were selling well. In addition to the natural tea fragrance, the tea sent by Xianghua also has a faint fruity aroma, and the effect of clearing the heart and calming the nerves is unusually good.

The big tea merchant soon added orders, and Xianghua had already prepared, and the villagers of Xianghua and Baishi Village made a lot of money in one round.

By the time the tea leaves are finished, the fruit trees are about to be harvested.

The villagers of Baishi Village first tasted the sweetness of the tea harvest, and spared no effort when picking the fruits, and gradually, they became really diligent.

There are so many lazy people who steal quite aggrieved, and they will not only be said by the villagers, but also counted down by their own children. Often, after a while, they willingly follow up.

It didn't take long for Xianghua to receive replies from all walks of life.

The princess has secretly sent the news to the emperor, and the emperor is furious and has ordered someone to expedite the investigation of the matter.

The General's Mansion is currently Zhao Tao at home, and after hearing about this, he just asked Xianghua not to worry too much. “…… The root cause of this is a man-made disaster. Where there are people, there are entanglements of interests. These demons and monsters can't get out for a while. ”

Xianghua saw that he was not flustered in the slightest, either he had the city in his heart, or he had already heard the sound of music. When he said this, Xianghua felt more at ease, maybe General Zhao already knew.

Zhu Fu's reply came a little later, and it was still Zhu Jinxiu's reply. The letter vaguely mentioned that the matter may be related to the royal palace.

Xianghua was not surprised.

How this big drama will end is really hard to guess. But there are generals in the frontier, there are Zhao Mansion, Zhu Mansion and Yang family in the court, there are princesses in Jiangnan, and she in the countryside.

"Report! 100 households! Discover the enemy! ”

Yang Yu took the "clairvoyant", and sure enough, he saw a small group of cavalry behind the sand dunes after the yellow sand rolled wildly under a bend of the moon.

They relied on the cover of the wind and sand, and thought they were approaching quietly.

Cheng Ma scolded and scolded: "His grandmother's! Can these stinky barbarians rest for two days, and play this show every day, is it interesting? ”

Cheng Gou Yu grinned: "The general said, they are deliberately so false and real, let us be careless, don't you hurry up and cheer up, be careful of being chased and beaten by stinky barbarians!" ”

Yang Yu looked at it very carefully.

This group of stinky barbarians knew that it would not be so easy to take the city wall, so they changed their tricks to fight guerrilla warfare with them.

At first, everyone thought that they were idle and had nothing to do, but then Yang Yu encountered them several times, and gradually discovered one thing - they were not deliberately provocative, they were using the most stupid method to explore their city defense map.

This incident began with General Zhao's purge of border guards a year ago.

At that time, the Xiongnu almost took advantage of the weakness to enter, breaking through the border guards with a piece of steel, but fortunately with General Zhao in charge, they turned defeat into victory in a thrilling way. After that, General Zhao made a ruthless move to thoroughly investigate corruption and collusion in the border guards, and replaced many people, after which the Xiongnu began to play tricks with them.
