Chapter 8: Enemies Meet!

The Dajing Dynasty was in the heyday of "blossoming flowers and cooking oil with fire", and was eager to expand abroad.

As long as they are not fugitives, fishermen, craftsmen, farmers, and even lowly and slave families can be changed to hunting by handing in the corpses of spirits.

Zhao's father's household registration is destined to belong to the eldest son, which is also the reason why the second brother of the Zhao family would rather risk his life than hunt down the spirits in the mountains.

It's a pity that according to the shepherd's statement, this is called "not being able to lead the sheep, but being topped by the sheep", and the second brother of the Zhao family almost became a lifelong disability.

And the final price fell on his sister.

Zhao Ru lay on the table, whimpered and cried for a long time, until she had a stomach attack, she covered her stomach, and her face was full of pain.

Chen Che didn't know how to comfort her, so he took her into his arms and comforted her softly.

After a long time, her cheeks flushed slightly, and she spoke softly, breaking the silence:

"Brother Che, do you want to hunt that strange snake tonight?"

"Not bad."

Chen Che already had a plan in mind.

The mountains and seas in the body of the alien snake, he is determined to win.

To further refine the "herd" rank, the talent will be further awakened.

He can then go to the Xiongxi River Basin, or the upper reaches of Xianniang Creek, to find the real spirits, in exchange for hunting freedom.

Chen Che said in a deep voice: "As long as I can configure thyme, I am ninety or even ten percent sure that I will kill this strange snake." ”

"Brother Che'er, you are a fugitive slave after all, it is inconvenient to walk on the street, go to the pharmacy to buy medicine, and sell mountain goods in the future, it is more appropriate to let me come", Zhao Ru was careful by nature, and noticed the rough branches and leaves of his man, so he immediately pointed it out.

Chen Che thought about it and felt that it made sense, so he agreed to this matter.

A moment later.

Zhao Ru entered the pharmacy, and there were a number of peppercorns, mugwort leaves, bay leaves, realgar, large ingredients, licorice, and atractylodes, which cost a total of 980 Wen.

In fact, three hundred and forty or fifty yuan is enough to match a pair of "thyme", and the money given by Chen Che is more than enough.

But Zhao Ru has always been smart and cautious, and felt that the prescriptions given by his man were a little unusual, so he had an extra heart.

Not only did she buy twice as many medicines, but she also asked for a few more herbs, and for each medicine, she bought a few extra dollars.

"Money is spent on Brother Che, and it is always not lost." She was in a good mood, but when she walked out of the pharmacy, her eyebrows furrowed slightly, and she actually bumped into Jiang Quan.

"What is he doing at the pharmacy?"

Zhao Ru felt a little strange, and when she saw that there was no one around, she leaned on the door of the pharmacy and eavesdropped, and found that the medicinal materials Jiang Quan bought were realgar?

Return to your accommodation.

Zhao Ru concealed the extra expenses, put the many medicinal materials he bought into Chen Che's back basket, and said solemnly: "After entering the mountain, you must protect yourself." ”

Chen Che didn't know anything about this, and said happily:

"You can save the rest of the money."

"Okay."

Zhao Ru responded with a smile, and told his man about meeting Jiang Quan on the way, frowned:

"What does he want Xionghuang for? The place where Master Zhao went in the past two days was the upper reaches of Xianniang Creek, and there were no dangerous snakes. ”

"With Jiang Quan's guts, it must be impossible to go to Xiongxi alone to take risks, is it possible that his big nose actually smells the smell of that strange snake?" , Chen Che's eyes narrowed, he was a little more vigilant in his heart, and said in a deep voice: "Sister Ru'er, I will go into the mountain immediately, and you can rest at home." ”

"Stay safe."

Zhao Ru had a little worry on her face.

When the sky was completely dark, the twilight smoke was everywhere, and the twilight was blank, and the mountain people hurriedly fled back from the mountain, but for Chen Che, it was a good time to enter the mountain.

"It's cold in the mountains, if you can't stand it, put another one", Zhao Ru's eyes were soft, he handed over an autumn coat, and advised: "Brother Che, if you encounter danger, saving your life is the most important thing, don't be greedy!" ”

"I'll wait for you at home."

…………

Chen Che walked out of Liuyang Town, and according to the custom, walked into the Great General's Temple, offered three incense sticks, and then ran briskly to the top of the mountain.

Climb to the tip of the fairy girl.

He sat down to rest, drank water and ate.

Inadvertently, the cold mountain breeze blew, Chen Che shivered from the cold, and couldn't help but take out the autumn clothes that Zhao Ru had prepared for him.

"It's better to be Sister Ru'er~"

The corners of Chen Che's mouth rose slightly, and he quickly changed into new clothes, only to feel that it fit very well and was very warm.

The new clothes used to be in the New Year were also tailor-made and densely sewn by Zhao Ru for him.

In the past two years, the rest of the family members couldn't help but sour when they saw this situation:

"It's nice to have a woman, and every year there are new clothes to wear."

"Sister Ru'er is also looking forward to me in her heart, so that she can bring her a new life."

Although Zhao Ru never said it explicitly, Chen Che knew very well in his heart that deep in Zhao Ru's heart, he had long been tired of the intrigue and twisted life of the Zhao Mansion.

Like a caged bird.

It's just that the price of getting rid of slavery and regaining freedom is too great and too difficult, so she never mentioned it from beginning to end.

"Days like this are coming to an end!"

Chen Che gritted the root of his teeth, and reluctantly uncovered the blood scab on the skin under his eyebrows, and the traces of blood dripped into the many herbs that had been mashed.

Instantly.

A faint fragrance of grass and trees wafted out, and the nearby mosquitoes felt the smell and flew away into the distance.

The effect is hundreds of times stronger than mosquito coils!

"It's done~"

Chen Che was overjoyed in his heart, and when he was about to wrap it up, he was suddenly stunned, and weighed it with his palm.

"It's heavier."

He was puzzled at first, and then quickly guessed Zhao Ru's thoughts, the corners of his lips were hooked, and a trace of warmth appeared in his heart.

At this time of warmth in my heart.

Sudden mutation!

The tips of Chen Che's ears moved slightly.

I heard the sound of footsteps coming to my ears, and the sound came from far and near.

And.

There was an old man and a young man, and the two talked as they walked:

"Uncle Quan, what are you taking me up the mountain for the middle of the night? With our physique, we have entered the miasma, and I am afraid that we will not even be able to live for a stick of incense. ”

"Don't worry, our Jiang family ancestors, the bloodline is a little special, even in our generation, the nose is different from ordinary people, big and red, can survive in the miasma for half an hour, let's hurry up, it's time.

When the sun went down today, the search team passed through the tiger forest, and I suddenly smelled a faint smell of birds, and I always felt that something was wrong.

After coming back, I found a few wild birds to smell the smell, and found that the smell in the evening was obviously very light, but it was extremely domineering, unforgettable for a long time, and there was a faint snake smell, which was very strange.

I wondered, could it be...... This is the taste of the three odd eggs?

There are too many mountain people and hunters coming and going during the day, I thought about it, and it will change later, so I will come and take a look tonight, in case I really bump into good goods! ”

"Yes, when I followed the master to find the old witch doctor, he also said that near the deep mountains and wild treasures, there must be insects, snakes and beasts guarding it."

"Let's look around tonight, if it's really three strange eggs, the master will definitely reward him."

"Who would have thought that the Tiger Forest, which is only three or four miles away from the town, actually hides three strange eggs, which is really dark under the lights."

The two people who spoke were all members of the Zhao family, one of them was Jiang Quan, who was born with a huge nose, and the other was his nephew, Jiang Xiaoliu.

"Sure enough, Jiang Quan also found traces of strange snakes......"

Seeing the two of them walking towards the tip of the fairy girl, Chen Che didn't want to be discovered by them, so he flashed sideways, hid in the bushes on the side, and quickly smeared thyme on his body.

The fragrance is like grass and trees.

It can be used to a certain extent to get rid of its own breath.

After hiding his figure, Chen Che recalled the conversation between the two, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart:

"Even if Jiang's uncle and nephew have a special bloodline, can they only survive in the miasma for half an hour? And [Food] can allow me to stay in the miasma all night unscathed......"

As the dividing point of miasma in the mountains, Xiangujian has always been a good place for mountain people to rest, and Jiang Quan and Jiang Xiaoliu are no exception, leaning against the white boulder, eating, drinking and resting.

Chen Che silently waited for the two to leave, but unexpectedly, when they were talking, they suddenly mentioned their names.

Jiang Xiaoliu scratched his head and asked curiously:

"Master Quan, why do you have to control Chen Che to death?"

Jiang Quan stroked his beard, with an unfathomable look on his face, and said with a sneer: "Of course not, my original plan was to let Chen Che live for three years!" ”
