Chapter Ninety-Eight: The Big Mouse
When Jian Li stepped into the forbidden land of the back mountain of the Medicine King Valley again, the sky had gradually darkened.
According to Ge Erdan, he came to this forbidden place to get the water of the clear spring.
This Chewei Spring is a major sacred spring in the Valley of the Medicine King, which is specially used to boil medicine for the elders and nobles in the valley.
The spring water not only allows the medicinal properties of the medicine to completely volatilize, but also has a great moisturizing effect on the human skin.
Therefore, Mo Rou'er, the only daughter of Mo Bai, the valley lord of the Medicine King Valley, had to bathe with this spring water almost every night.
As for him, he is responsible for coming here every day to fetch water.
Of course, he was only responsible for fetching water, and this matter of delivering water to Mo Rou'er was not his turn as a fifth-rank disciple, Mo Wentian, the chief disciple of Elder Niu's sect where he was.
In addition to the valley lord Mo Bai, there are a total of seven elders in the Medicine King Valley.
Each elder has a chief disciple, three major disciples, and ten first-class disciples.
The next second, third, and fourth classes are all divided according to qualifications, ranging from tens to hundreds.
As for the fifth-class disciples, to put it mildly, they are fifth-class disciples, but to put it bluntly, they are the ones who administer medicine to Wang Gu to do miscellaneous.
......
Jianli carried two buckets of water, and after passing through the countless arches of the cloister with his head down, he saw rows of broken bricks and tiles in the distance.
In front of the house, there were many fifth-class disciples who were sitting or standing, lying or leaning.
If you have more money, you will take out your own private collection of good wine and have a "toast to invite Mingyue".
If you don't have enough, you will replace the wine with tea, or simply replace the wine with water, laugh and chat, and dispel the fatigue of the day.
Occasionally, a rough man drank to the excitement, became poetic, stood up violently, stepped on the stone bench with one foot, looked at the sky and pavilions in the distance, first opened his arms affectionately, and then shouted "whoosh": "Life, it's a play for him/mother." It's you who come out, I'll go in! What's the use of being rich and rich? In the end, it's a fart!Ah, it's a fart!"
The rough man said as he picked up the worn-out wine gourd on the side again and poured it into his mouth.
When the crowd next to him heard the big man's poem, some stroked their palms and applauded loudly, while others simply turned their heads away and scoffed.
Jian Li looked at the countless disciples in front of him who looked depressed, but were enjoying themselves, and sighed in his heart and felt a wave of envy at the same time.
"One, two......"
Along one end of this row of houses, when he silently counted to the twenty-seventh, Jianli saw a room that was quite good in this row.
Unexpectedly, the place where Ge Erdan lives is not so simple, although it is also a little dilapidated, but at least it looks like a house.
At this time, it was already dark, and Jian Li lowered his head and walked quickly towards the door of the house.
Compared with the bustle in front of the door of other houses, this room was particularly quiet, if it weren't for the lights still on in the room, Jian Li would even think that there was only Ge Erdan alone in this room.
With a deep sigh of relief, he calmed down, and made sure that there was nothing missing, Jian Li directly pushed open the door and walked in with a bucket.
As soon as he walked into the door, Jian Li felt that in addition to the faint smell of sweat in the house, there was also a strong aura of slaughter.
Glancing up, he looked around.
Looking into the eyes, a young man in a black robe, with an angular face, was standing in front of him and stared at him coldly.
Jian Li's expression changed, this person was Mo Wentian, the eldest disciple of their sect, according to Ge Erdan's description.
"Senior Brother Mo. Jian Li bowed his head and said.
"Ge Erdan, you still know that you are back! I thought you died in which corner! Why, don't you send me to my residence every day? Why do you have a long career today? Do you need me to do it myself?" After the cold young man finished speaking, his eyes flashed, and he was about to teach this handyman who didn't know the height of the sky and the thickness of the earth to teach him a lesson.
Jian Li was shocked when he heard this, and his heart turned extremely fast, this damn Ge Erdan actually missed such an important matter, and did not tell himself that the water needed to be sent to this Mo Wentian's residence.
Thinking of this, Jian Li put down the bucket, sat down on the ground, pretended to be aggrieved and patted the ground and cried loudly: "Senior Brother Mo, you don't know, I originally wanted to fetch water today, but as a result, guess what I saw?"
Mo Wentian was stunned when he heard this, and then frowned and looked at the miscellaneous servants crying in front of him, could it be that something happened to Che Weiquan?
If it's true, this is amazing, you know, this Che Wei Spring is an important refining water in the valley, and Shennong Ding, Shen Pesticide Codex, together with the three treasures in the valley, if something happens to Che Wei Spring, I'm afraid I can't get rid of it!
"What the hell is going on! Hurry up!" Mo Wentian said hurriedly.
"It's Senior Brother Mo. Jian Li pretended to wipe his eyes, pretended to be frightened, and said, "I arrived at Chewei Spring today, and I was just about to fetch water, but as a result, I found such a big mouse next to the spring!" Jian Li said, gesturing with his hands.
"This rat was sucking water next to the Chewei Spring, I saw that this was not good, how important this Chewei Spring was! It was used by the elders of the valley to refine medicine! And most importantly, it was used by the eldest lady for bathing, if it was defiled by a mouse, it would be worth it!"
Mo Wentian breathed a long sigh of relief when he heard this, it was just a mouse, and it was not a big deal.
It's not a small matter, though.
If this reaches the ears of the eldest lady, with the temperament of the eldest lady, I am afraid that this clear spring will be purged in the future!
Thinking of this, Mo Wentian looked at the handyman in front of him and sneered: "This is not the reason why you came back so late, right? Don't tell me, you are going to catch mice!"
Listening to Mo Wentian's words, Jian Li got up instantly, stretched out his thumb to him, and tried to make a flattering expression and said: "Senior Brother Mo, you are really a god, you have guessed it, don't you know, I have gone through countless tribulations, fought with this rat for hundreds of rounds, and finally, finally ......"
"If there's a fart, let it go!" Mo Wentian said impatiently.
"Yes, yes!" Jian Li agreed in a panic, then reached into his arms and quietly groped for it.
After a while, the sword lit up in his eyes, and then from his bosom he took out a gray-black dead mouse larger than an adult's palm.
Jian Li carried the tail of the big mouse, stretched out in front of Mo Wentian, and said loudly as if inviting merit: "Senior Brother Mo, look, this is the result of my fighting for so long!"
"Oh, I'm going, it's so big?"
"No, it's the first time I've seen a rat this big!"
"This rat does not know how much clear spring water he has drunk, and it is not unusual for it to grow so big. ”
Before Mo Wentian could speak, several fifth-rank disciples behind him who belonged to the same room as Ge Erdan couldn't help but exclaim.
Mo Wentian looked at the soft mouse in front of him, and he was also a little creepy, and then waved his hand in disgust, "Okay, you don't have to show me!
