CH.043 The Turtle in the Urn
The grass was growing so vigorously that the village chief had a few more buckets of contaminated water and poured water on all the grass around the well. I saw that most of the grain essence grass grew by the spring well, and the shape was like an S-shape, but fortunately, the range was not very wide, and it did not spread to the white tea bushes not far away. It's really strange, this valley essence grass has not grown into the white tea bush, and there is a clear warp and weft path between it and the white tea bush, and it always maintains a certain distance.
"Legend has it that the tea was originally called "Cha", Shennong's taste of the herbs, there is a check of this plant, the tea is checked in the stomach to wash the stomach, but also to refresh the mind, here and often get fairy spring water irrigation, the two are mutually reinforcing, it should be that the grain essence grass can not grow in the white tea bush, the mutated grain essence grass roots will move, but it has also kept a distance. Quit Drunk said.
"Your hands are poisoned, and the tea wine brewed by the villagers can remove the venom oozing from the roots of the grain essence grass, we can find a way to drive the grain essence grass roots away from the spring well, it is best to form a pile and drive all the grain essence grass together. Then the idea is removed. ”
"That makes sense, but how should we do it?" said Ma Youcai, the village head, touching his head.
"Look, there are already some roots of grain essence grass in the spring water, and I have some tea wine here, you can try it. As he spoke, he picked up the gourd and poured out some of the roots of the grain grass that was exposed to the dirt.
The roots of the grain essence grass that had been poured with tea wine dried up at once, and the rest of the roots shrank back at once, leaving only the broken dry roots floating on the spring water.
"There is a law. Quit drunk and patted his thighs excitedly.
"Village Chief, is there a lot of tea and wine in the village?" asked Qu Drunk.
"It's a lot, I don't think about it for more than 20 years, the fairy spring is gone, every family has brewed tea wine, not a hundred jars but dozens of jars. ”
"That's good, are there many bamboo poles and the like?"
"Aren't the clothes poles and broom handles all made of bamboo poles? What are the farmers? This is the most! There are still bamboo forests in the vicinity, and there can be no bamboo poles?"
"Just tell me what you're going to do. Ma Youcai patted his chest.
"One end of the bamboo pole should be sharpened, and the middle bamboo should be opened one by one, so that the bamboo becomes a hollow pipe, and the bottom bamboo node should be kept like the bamboo spoon we usually use, and the spire should be close to the part close to the bamboo joint. The bamboo body is perforated, and it can be sprayed on all sides when it is filled with water. Looking at the growth and range of these grain essence grasses, 60 should be enough. The root type of the grain essence grass is wide and thin, and it is not as deep as that of trees, and the length of one meter should be enough. The other part of the bamboo can be broken into two halves, the bamboo joints in the middle are knocked off one by one, and a natural pipe can be laid to lead the spring water to the fixed point far away from the spring water, attracting the escaped grain essence grass to reach the fixed point, playing the role of spring leading wine to drive, and then removing the pipe of the spring when the grain essence grass gathers into a clump. At this time, the grain essence grass in the escape of the tea wine after the scorching and drying, must have been killed and wounded heavily, the remaining grain essence grass and then poured tea wine, at this time there is no place for it to live in the soil, occasionally fierce grass roots or jump out of the soil can cause fire. The dried grain essence grass has no venom to harm, you can call a few more people to turn over the soil, collect the grain essence grass roots and burn them in the sun. ”
"It's a wonderful method. Yashan couldn't help but applaud on the sidelines.
Sit down and walk the talk.
The big guy used the carriage of the Guogong Mansion to pull hundreds of jars of fine wine and piled them up by the spring well.
The bamboo poles are long and short, green and yellow, some are newly cut down, and some are old. Everyone disposed of the bamboo poles according to what they said about quitting drunkenness, and the utensils on the ground were readily available, including sickles, planers, and hoes, just like the battlefields of ancient times.
About 20 sharpened bamboo pipes are inserted around the grain essence grass, and the spring water flows into the grain essence grass in the bamboo pipes.
About 20 young adults poured wine into the bamboo pipe, and one of the people standing next to him held a hoe, covered his holes, and wrapped his gloves to prevent the roots of the grain essence grass that had not dried up from spewing venom.
The smell of wine wafted in the wind, and there was a small sound of "zizi" and "whoosh" from the ground, and with an order to quit drunkenness, all the people took up their hoes and dug a trench next to the bamboo pipe, and the heavily armed women picked up the fallen grain essence grass roots and put them in the bucket with tea wine.
Looking at the gradually shrinking encirclement, the bamboo pipes inserted in the ground were arranged into concentric circles, and in the end, there were only 5 bamboo pipes left in the encirclement. A few young people poured tea and wine into the bamboo pipe with ease, and a few people on the side waited with hoes.
The sound of "zizi" and "whoosh" became more and more intense, and finally turned into a sharp whistling sound.
"Not good. Qu drunk suddenly had a bad premonition in his heart, "Everyone disperse." ”
Before the words fell, a doll-looking grass root struggled out of the dirt, and if you looked closely, it actually had eyes, ears, mouth and nose, and at this time the mouth was emitting a sharp cry, as if sensing the pain of being burned by the fire. The body was actually wearing clothes made of charms, and the grassroots people twisted themselves in the air, and the small roots that were exposed were trembling slightly, and suddenly the roots opened on all sides, spinning and flying outwards to shoot out venom grass juice, fortunately, everyone was prepared, and once there was a splash, they immediately cleaned it with wine, so it didn't cause harm. After a while, seeing that it had not moved, Qu Jie stepped forward to pick up the grassroots man, and asked the others to dig out the remaining dead Gu Spirit grass roots from the soil. Everyone poured all the grass roots of the grain essence cleaned up together, and the grass roots soaked in wine turned into dust in the fire. The rest of the puppets quit drunkenness and said that they wanted to take it back and study it carefully, and the charms on the puppets had a lot of origins, and these group mutations of the grain spirit grass should be the result of this spell.
"He's dead. "Quit drunkenness and look at the humanoid grassroots. The grassroots wore red silk cloth and a yellow cloak on the outside. The red silk cloth was embroidered with white threads with strange words, row after row, column after column, like small tadpoles of different shapes, and on the yellow cloak was a symbol drawn on it, I don't know what symbol. Qu drunk curiously untied the puppet's cloak and silk cloth, the grass roots turned into ashes in the wind, and they were raised, hitting the eyes of Qu Drunk, Qu Drunk was shocked, and quickly let go of his hand, the red silk cloth and yellow cloak turned into a red and yellow bird, "fluttering" wings and flying away.
