Pharmacist Gu Si took Yu Yan and Yao'er, Xiao Shan, Mingzi and Hu Niu to a flat rice field, pointed to a large bamboo forest to the east and said, "Let's go to the bamboo forest, there are some special things for you to taste." ”

Yu Yan looked around, and saw a large area of emerald green bamboo forest, as if they were working hard. When everyone came to the bamboo forest, they saw what those people were doing.

Carrying a kettle and a steel cone, the villagers first selected the stout bamboo in the forest, then used the steel cone to drill a small hole in the bamboo, and finally pointed the spout against the small hole drilled in the bamboo knob to pour the liquid inside. After filling, the men plugged the holes with a wooden stopper. When these workers saw Gu Si coming, they all stopped what they were doing and saluted the pharmacist.

Yuyan was the first time they had come to such a place, so they didn't understand what these people were doing.

Gu Si explained: "That's the specialty here, and they're making green bamboo wine. In this way, the best rice wine is poured into the bamboo and allowed to ferment in the bamboo for a period of time before being taken out. This wine has a fresh scent of bamboo. This wine is not tasted anywhere else. ”

Yao'er said: "It turns out that the pot is filled with rice wine!"

Xiaoshan is a good wine girl, so she hurriedly asked, "Then how long will this wine sit in the bamboo?

Gu Sidao: "Generally, you can take it out and drink it for half a year or a year." Then he beckoned, and a dark-skinned man came out of the midst of the work, and bowed respectfully, saying, "What does the medicine man command?"

Gu Si said: "You go and get some one-year green bamboo wine for these distinguished guests from afar." ”

The villager said "no" and turned around and walked deeper into the bamboo forest. Everyone was curious and followed him to watch him take wine. I saw him walk up to a stout bamboo tree and start cutting it with the saw he had brought with him. In a few moments the bamboo was cut down. He sawed off the bamboo knots one by one with a saw blade.

Gu Si said: "Every bamboo knot contains wine. Let's use bamboo as a cup. With that, he took a bamboo joint, held it with his left hand, and with a stroke of the fingers of his right hand on the upper part of the bamboo, the upper part of the bamboo was cut. The villagers looked at him with reverence, then used their scimitars to cut the top halves of the other bamboo knots as well, and handed them to the crowd.

Gu Si picked up the bamboo knots and said to everyone: "Come, a glass of thin wine to pay a little respect." ”

Everyone took the wine glass and drank it all, but felt that the green bamboo wine was like the mouth, sweet and sweet, and full of the unique fragrance of bamboo, refreshing people's hearts.

Xiao Shan said: "Uncle Pharmacist, do you have any snacks to drink?"

Gu Si smiled and said, "The bamboo shoots here are a must, and they are most suitable for wine after simmering." ”

The villagers on the side hurriedly brought the prepared bamboo shoots on the plate.

Everyone sat on the ground here, chatting while eating, relaxed and happy-

Akiko's decision to come here is here.

After a few days of running, the matter of Minjiang Wulin came to an end for the time being. In the end, the truth was revealed, it turned out that Qin Hai was captured by Nuwa of Mizusawa Green Valley in the process of going to Shaolin to deliver a letter, so he explained the whereabouts of the owner of Guo Lou. Subsequently, Mizusawa Green Valley sent Nuwa to kill Qin Yugang in order to control the Minjiang Wulin. Qin Hai received the strange internal skills and moves taught by Nuwa, so he defeated the Taiji Dragon Stick's biggest competitor, Qiankun Sect Ge Tianbao, at the Minjiang Martial Arts Conference. In order to completely eliminate the hostile forces, Nuwa killed Qin Yang and blamed Ge Tianbao.

After the joint efforts of the Golden Palm Stone Buddha and the murderous spirit of Pingling, the matter finally came to light. Nuwa was killed by Yu Yan with a sword. Qin Hai went mad because he couldn't control his internal force, and finally his blood vessels burst and died.

It seems that the Golden Palm Stone Buddha has completed the task assigned by the abbot. But he still had two questions in his mind. One is why Mizusawa Green Valley would get involved in the affairs of the Minjiang Martial Arts, if it was for the sake of Guo Lou Lord, Mizusawa Green Valley had already obtained him, why did he come back and manipulate Qin Hai to compete for the Minjiang Martial Arts Alliance Leader? The other question is about Guo Lou Lord. Mingzi and Guo Lou had a deep relationship before. It turned out that the owner of Guo Lou was not surnamed Guo before, he was a village owner of Black Dragon Village, and he was also the person Mingzi had been looking for for many years. For this man, Akiko didn't believe that he would die easily. Zuojiang Shusheng said that he saw with his own eyes that a professional killer killed the owner of Guolou, and the coachman of Mizusawa Midorigu packed his body into a box. Moreover, this time in Minjiang, Yu Yan also found out that Mizusawa Midoriya had hired a professional killer who was impostored without a knife, so Akiko was even more suspicious that the owner of the building Guo was not dead.

Although he was skeptical, he still needed to find another opportunity to test his hypothesis. But before that, he had to come back and return one thing, that is, the treasure that had made a great contribution in the investigation of Qin Yang's corpse, the copper box that could test the authenticity of the substance. At this time, the tiger girl borrowed it from Gu Si, and now Mingzi brought the tiger girl to return to the original owner. By the way, I also brought Yu Yan and the Qiao family sisters here as guests.

Gu Si, a self-proclaimed nameless pharmacist, used to live in seclusion in the Taihang Mountains. Later, after the Black Dragon Village was divided, he moved to this small village away from the hustle and bustle in order to hide from the quiet. Because he has peerless medical skills, he naturally became a living bodhisattva in the hearts of the villagers and was worshipped.

During the drinking, Xiao Shan told Gu Si about what they had seen and heard in Yaowang Mountain. Unexpectedly, Gu Si actually knew the Niangniang of the Medicine King Palace, which made Xiao Shan very surprised.

Gu Si smiled: "What's so strange about this. I am a doctor who dispenses medicines, and they grow and collect medicines. So we were in touch many years ago. But then I started a herb garden of my own, and I gradually became estranged. I've heard that they have a lot of contact with my apprentices. ”

Yao'er asked, "Uncle Gu, who is your apprentice?"

Gu Sidao: "His surname is Hua, he is smart, but he can't bear loneliness. I'll let him go down the mountain. Later, he established the Medical Valley, proclaimed himself the owner of the valley, and was the great patron of Yaowang Mountain. ”

None of you here know this person. However, Yu Yan remembered that he heard Xuanwu Ming in Yaowang Mountain say that Qianhe Zhenren asked the master of Huagu to come forward to diagnose and treat the epilepsy of the people of Qinshan, and the person he said should be Gu Si's apprentice.

Yu Yan then told what he had seen and heard later in Yaowang Mountain, and the Dongyao Palace was attacked by mysterious swordsmen, and only one Jade Swallow escaped. The Western Medicine King Palace was attacked by Chizuru, but although Chizuru burned down the Western Medicine Palace, he gained very little, and he didn't even see the face of the Western Medicine Palace.

Gu Si sighed lightly and said, "The Medicine King Palace is a place where medicines are collected, but they just want to participate in the disputes in the rivers and lakes, so they have caused this kind of catastrophe. He added, "Medicine King Shuangshu has been smart since he was a child, so he can be in charge of the foundation of Medicine King Mountain. Especially the king of Western medicine, Niangniang, is an outstanding woman, but it is a pity that she is now associated with the unrepentant religion. ”

Yu Yan knew that Gu Si was a master of the world who was nearly 100 years old, so he naturally knew a lot about the secrets of the rivers and lakes. He suddenly thought of something, hurriedly took out something from his arms, put it in his hand, and asked Gu Sidao: "Senior, I always feel a little strange about this thing, what do you think?"

Everyone looked at Yu Yan's palm and saw that he was holding a gourd-shaped gold ingot in his hand. The gold ingots circulating in the market are generally horseshoe-shaped or brick-shaped, but this one is a gourd-shaped gold ingot with exquisite workmanship, which is very rare.

Hu Niu said: "This is a gold ingot, it looks like there are five or six taels." ”

Yu Yan said, "This gold ingot was found in the Western Medicine King's Palace. It is said that this is the evidence that the Western Medicine King Palace secretly has no repentance. Because this style of gold ingots is only like this, the dart silver that Chizuru entrusted my brother Qiao Yisheng to escort is like this. ”

Yu Yan hadn't shown this gold ingot to Yao'er and Xiaoshan before, because he was afraid that they would be sad. When he saw this gold ingot for the first time, Yu Yan was also very uncomfortable. He thought that Brother Qiao had lost his life just to escort six thousand of these gold ingots, so he felt very worthless. But now that he took it out, Yu Yan also wanted to ask Gu Si for advice.

Gu Si took the gold ingot, looked it up and down, and said, "This gold ingot is the object of the righteous army of the previous dynasty, and it is indeed rare. ”

Yu Yan voiced his doubts: "My eldest brother left me a message, saying that Qianhe entrusted my eldest brother to escort him in order to protect a property of 30,000 taels of gold. And I wonder why, after all these years, Chizuru doesn't melt down and reforge these gold ingots and continue to circulate, but leaves them as they are?"

Gu Si shook his head and said, "There are too many mysteries left by the rebels of the previous dynasty, and this gold is not the most strange. ”

Tiger Niu interjected and said, "Maybe Chizuru can't melt this gold, or they can't melt it, because there is something hidden in it." ”

Her unintentional words startled Gu Si, Yuyan and Mingzi at once. Yu Yan looked at the villagers who were still busy not far away. They are pouring rice wine from a pot into the bamboo. Yu Yan muttered, "If someone really hides something in this gold ingot, and Chizuru knows that he can't take it out, so he can only hide this gold." ”

Mingzi said: "Could it be that the Unrepentant Sect has found a way to open the gold ingot?"

Gu thought for a moment and said, "I think if someone can really open this gold ingot and take out what is hidden inside, then there is definitely a group of people who are most likely to do it." ”

Yu Yan looked at Gu Si and said, "Who is it?" ”

Gu Sidao: "I couldn't stand them, so I moved out of Taihang Mountain." Speaking of which, they originally wanted to do business with Black Dragon Village, but they caught up with Zhong Kunlun and was killed. Therefore, when the Black Dragon Village was divided, it occupied the mineral deposits in the Taihang Mountain. ”

Mingzi patted his head and said, "After the seniors said it, I also guessed who it was." ”

Yu Yan smiled and said, "Master, don't sell it, who can open this gold ingot?"

Mingzi said: "It's the Sword Casting Pavilion under the Nangong family." ”

Yu Yan remembered Mr. You Jiang's record in the book, and said, "Are you talking about Nangong Ye?"

Gu Si nodded and said, "The current head of the Nangong family is Nangong Ye, but the person who can open this gold ingot is Zuo Feng, the pavilion master of the Sword Casting Pavilion under him. (To be continued.) )
