Chapter 34: Two Years
was stir-frying the green vegetables, Hua Ying's eyes lit up, and she suddenly remembered something, and her face showed a sudden look.
As she spoke, she threw away the spatula, took out a bag of yellow ginseng slices wrapped in linen cloth from her arms, counted about seven or eight slices, and threw them all into the small pot.
Yellow ginseng slices, a big supplement, Hua Ying didn't dare to put too much at once. After all, this is the first time she has taken the drug, and it will not be too late to put more medicine when she is proficient in it.
After throwing it in, she stirred it in the porridge with a big spoon, and after it was almost even, she was just about to cover the pot, but Qin Xiangzhi happened to come back.
"Division... Sister...... How do you add ginger slices to rice, where did you learn it, don't tell me it's your own way of eating. ”
Holding a handful of green peppers in her hand, she looked at the white porridge in the pot in horror, her voice seemed to tremble.
Hua Ying was clever, and was startled by Qin Xiangzhi's sudden voice, she turned her head and smiled, "Senior sister, this is yellow ginseng, not ginger, you read it wrong.......
"Yellow ginseng?"
Qin Xiangzhi looked closer, almost put his face into the pot to cook, and finally saw clearly, "You found a good treasure from the mountains again?" It's strange, how can I not meet ...... when I usually go up the mountain"
The yellow ginseng is indeed slightly different from ordinary ginger in color, and it doesn't smell like ginger.
"Oops, it's time for the dish to come out of the pot, and it's mushy when it's late."
At this time, Qin Xiangzhi noticed that the green vegetables in the pot were about to be ripe, so he hurriedly exclaimed, quickly cut the green pepper in his hand into small pieces and threw them into the pot, stir-fried them a few times, and then put them out of the pot and put them on the plate.
"Senior sister, you can take out the porridge and start the meal."
"Okay."
The two were busy working together, and soon the food was served on the table, Hua Ying was responsible for setting up the dishes and chopsticks, and Qin Xiangzhi went to invite the master of the two over.
The three masters and apprentices gathered together and had a beautiful dinner.
"Senior sister, today's ginseng porridge is really good, it makes my stomach hot." When the meal was almost finished, Qin Xiangzhi wiped his mouth and said with a smile.
"Senior sister likes it, I'll go to the mountains another day to dig some more, and make ginseng porridge every day in the future."
was praised by her senior sister, Hua Ying was overjoyed, and when she saw that her master had also eaten well, she couldn't help asking, "What does Master think of this ginseng porridge?" ”
"This is a big supplement."
Master's words made Hua Ying's heart feel as if she had eaten honey, and she immediately decided to increase the planting share of yellow ginseng after she went back. In the future, the three of them will eat it every day, and it will inevitably consume more, and it will definitely not work if it is not appropriate.
In this kind of big thing, Hua Ying will not hide her selfishness, Master and Sister are no different from relatives to her, there are great tonics such as yellow ginseng that are beneficial to cultivation, how can there be a reason to secretly take it by herself.
"Master, I'll help you back to your room to rest."
After the meal, Hua Ying took the initiative to help the master back to the room.
After all, the woman in Tsing Yi is a person who practices martial arts, where can she use the support of her apprentice, not to mention that she is far from the extent that she is too full to walk, and she just walked to the bottom of the eaves of the corridor and waved her hand.
"Ying'er, go back. Remember, you must not slack off in the cultivation of external strength, this is the foundation, and you must not waste it because you are addicted to cultivating internal strength. ”
"It's Master!" Hua Ying's face was slightly red, and she lowered her head and didn't dare to look directly.
In recent months, she has indeed neglected the practice of external strength, and has been thinking about how to quickly improve her internal strength, plus researching and planting new medicinal herbs. I never thought that I would be pointed out by the master today, and I couldn't help but feel a little ashamed in my heart.
"You can't rush the matter of internal strength, and cultivating quickly may not be a good thing, remember to remember." The woman in Tsing Yi glanced at her apprentice, her eyes revealed a deep meaning, and her words seemed to be meaningful, as if she was hinting at something.
"Disciple understands!"
Hua Ying hurriedly nodded yes, and only when the master left, did she raise her head, a trace of doubt on her slightly ruddy little face, savoring what the master had just said.
"Is Master ......?"
After thinking about it for a long time and not coming up with a reason, Hua Ying simply stopped thinking about it, put the matter behind her, and turned around and went back to her room.
It's getting late, and it's time to go to sleep.
Before going to bed, Hua Ying went to the medicine garden to fiddle with the herbs for a while to observe the growth. These are all things that must be done every day, practice makes perfect, and now she has mastered the knowledge of farming, which can be described as practicing martial arts and farming.
It's night, and Qingya Mountain is fine.
······
Spring goes to winter, and in the blink of an eye, it has been two years.
The peak of Qingya Mountain is still the same, but there is an additional mass grave at the foot of the mountain.
It is said that it is a mass grave, but in fact, there is only a chaotic and a hill, and there is no grave.
The white bones here are overgrown with weeds, and the bones are piled up like a hill, and there are more than a dozen places. Whether it is a severed head or a mutilated corpse, if you count it carefully, I am afraid that there are hundreds of corpses.
Although these bones are messy, they are all uniformly dressed in black cloth clothes, but they have experienced a lot of wind and rain, and the clothes have long been torn and rotten, and the bones are full of broken bones.
Every twilight, there will be wolves, jackals, tigers and leopards swimming among them, the wind is overcast, and the howling is endless, like a hellish scene.
There are rumors in the nearby villagers, the ghosts and monsters are rampant here, they dare not approach, and no one dares to go into the mountain to cut firewood again, in the past few years, Qingya Mountain has been uninhabited, and gradually became a barren mountain.
this day.
At the foot of the mountain, which is rarely visited, two people drove horses, crossed the forest path that had long been deserted, and slowly walked through the hundreds of zhang long mass graves.
One of them, when he came here, was terrified when he saw this scene, and said:
"I have heard for a long time, that Qingya Mountain Chai Divine Doctor is ruthless, kills people without blinking, and when I came here today, I know that the rumors are not exaggerated."
"Brother Lin, what's more! I also heard that the Chai Divine Doctor rarely made a move, and most of them were done by his two disciples. Tsk, there are even rumors that it is two female disciples, but I don't believe such a ridiculous thing. Another man on horseback chimed in.
"Haha, Brother Chen doesn't believe it, then I don't believe it either." The young man surnamed Lin laughed loudly, which was extremely harsh in the silence of the mass grave.
The young man surnamed Chen looked at the scene here again, and couldn't help but sigh again, "It's also strange that the Flying Fox Sect is unlucky, and the good end has encountered such a hard stubble, and has lost hundreds of disciples in two or three years, so its strength has been greatly damaged." Now in the boundary of Xiqing County, the Flying Fox Gate is about to be beaten by the Huadao Gate of the neighboring county. You said that the Transformation Knife Gate is the same, such an opportunity not to take advantage of the situation to defeat in one fell swoop, but to shrink back this year, it is really strange. ”
"Brother Chen doesn't know, there is a big drought in Dongqing County this year, and many people have died, and now the plague is rampant, and the Huadao Gate has also been damaged a lot, I'm afraid I don't have the energy to deal with this Flying Fox Gate."
"There is such a thing, it seems that Brother Lin has a lot of news."
"Each other, each other."
After a while, the two of them sighed for a while, and finally rode through this difficult place of bones, and stopped at the foot of the mountain.
After dismounting, he was about to discuss what to do when he went up the mountain later, when the young man surnamed Chen suddenly stretched out his hand and pointed to the stone path leading to the mountain, and said:
"Brother Lin, look, is there a person up there?"
