number one leader

Chapter 228

On the second day, Chu Sheng, Qingshou's companion, gave up their horses and walked directly into the vast mountains.

The green-clothed girl naturally stayed in the village, and Qing Shouze must go to find his master, a poisonous doctor, so it was just the meaning of the question.

Turning around the rugged mountain road, Chu Sheng saw a hazy mist shrouded in the middle of the mountain. He only took one breath, and felt chest tightness and dizziness, and his expression was not good.

Qingshou threw an object, and seeing Chu Sheng hold it in his hand to look at it, he all said: "This is the miasma in the deep mountains of Bingzhou in front of you, as the saying goes, 'Nanzhou's water and soil are warm and hot, and with miasma, there are four out of ten people who will die. 'In our southern border, there are many mountains and forests, and the earth's air is low and humid; moreover, there is more fog and less wind, and it is often warm in winter, so the yang energy in the shade is not strong, so that it is cold in summer, and the forest is full of resentful spirits. If the accumulation does not dissipate for a long time, it is inevitable to deviate from the evil, and the yin evil in the yang will be easily injured."

"You are in Ningzhou, which is close to the east. It's not bad. This kind of situation may be rare. If this is the case, you have to be careful. If you are invaded by the miasma, you will have a fever and headache. In severe cases, you will suffer from typhoid fever, and in mild cases, you will suffer from malaria. , will lose his life at any time."

Putting the object in his nose and sniffing it, the smell was somewhat familiar, Chu Sheng raised his head and asked, "What is this?"

"Yulangzi" Qingshou said a name that Chu Sheng had never heard before, and said: "There is a legend in Bingzhou that there was a Miao girl who fell in love with a Han family son, but when she came to her village, intermarriage with foreigners was forbidden. Secondly, that young master is from a family of officials and officials, so he firmly opposes this marriage."

"The two are bitterly in love, but the young master has made a decision. One day, a letter was sent to the village, and he bluntly said that he wanted to take her away. The two met on the full moon, at the end of the willow shoot, at the Weeping Willow Pavilion in Liangshan But the letter was inspected by the people in the Miao girl's village, so they dealt with her according to the rules of the village."

"Is there an explanation?"

Qingshou shook his head with a smile, "I am in the sect, so I have dealt with a lot of young people. No one knows how many villages there are in this village, and although the villages are slightly connected, But they are all independent like a country, with their own rules and regulations. Who knows what the disciplinary rules in the legendary Miao village are, anyway, the Miao girl missed the appointment time."

Chu Sheng was fascinated by what he heard and couldn't help but ask, "What happened next?"

"How?" Qingshou looked up at the distant mountains, and smiled softly, "Miao women are like fire, once they fall in love, they are like moths."

"The legend only says that the Miao girl was so angry that she swallowed the Gu worms by herself. She endured a night of pain and was swallowed by the poisonous Gu, turning into a puddle of pus. The pus rose when it met the sun. Because of the mist, no matter what it is, if you inhale it, you will die, so in one morning, everyone in the entire Miao village died quietly, not even a cat or dog was left behind."

"This poisonous fog started in the early morning, and it sank into the mountains and forests at noon when the sun was scorching hot, and it rose again on the second day. The poisonous fog took another life and then grew stronger. There was no way to guard against it, and it spread again and again until the southern border In Bingzhou and Chuzhou, there is miasma in the deep mountains and old forests, and neither humans nor animals are allowed to enter.”

These are the local myths and legends of Bingzhou and Chuzhou. Chu Sheng thought for a while. How is the son?"

"That man." Qingshou shook his head and said, "He waited and waited at the place where we met, until the moon was on the willow shoots, until the moon was on the west tower, until the sun rose, but he didn't see the Miao girl, but his own servants were ordered He was brought back, and he was forced to marry another woman."

"The welcoming team blows and beats all the way, passing by, there is constant noise, and the value can finally be reached after turning over a mountain, but it is early in the morning, when the morning dew is slightly drooping"

I have to say that Qingshou is very good at telling stories.

At the very least, Chu Sheng felt that this completely attracted him, and he also cooperated with the follow-up question.

"Follow-up? Who knows the follow-up?" Qingshou smiled helplessly, "Someone saw it, and the sound of the suona lingered, but a white mist rose in the mountains and forests, and then the group of dozens of people disappeared without a trace. I looked for it, but the sedan chair, jewels, money and silver have disappeared since then, only the jade pendant worn by the groom's official is tied to a forest plant, and the mountain wind howls, ringing the pendant."

"Is this the fruit that grew on it?" Chu Sheng threw one in his mouth, and a familiar feeling came to his heart.

He really ate this jade nut in his previous life.
"Jade nuts grow in places where miasma is pervasive, and their fruit can eliminate all wind and all qi, and benefit the internal organs." Qingshou said lightly, and sighed: "The mutual generation and restraint, the poisonous place must have the antidote, in the world Everything is so wonderful.”

Chu Sheng squinted his eyes and nodded with a smile.

The two walked into the miasma, turned over the mountains, and felt that the scenery in front of them suddenly opened up, but there was a quiet valley in the middle of the mountains. Naturally, it was rarely visited by people, but because of this, the scenery was so beautiful. The valley was planted easily. It is a herbal flower, which is in midsummer, and it is full of purple and red, and there is a lake in the middle of the valley, which reflects the mountains like a mirror.

Qingshou raised his hand and pointed, Chu Sheng followed the direction he pointed, but saw a small wooden house by the lake, and a young man waved his head around the wooden house, as if he was planting something.

"That's my junior brother, and he's not too old." Qingshou halfway through speaking, gave Chu Sheng a weird look, and said awkwardly, "It's only about the same age as the head of Chu."

The young man next to him acted with restraint and behaved properly, making people almost instinctively ignore his age.

The two went down into the valley, then walked along the lake to the wooden house.

Along the way, Qingshou turned back and handed him a pack of powder, and carefully told him: "Poison Doctor Valley is full of poisons. This place is beautiful, but it is also very dangerous. If ignorant outsiders step into it, they will all be turned into corpses." The valley is filled with nutrients from poisonous weeds."

"And sprinkle this pack of detoxification powder on your body, so that poisonous insects and poisons can retreat."

Qudu powder has a strong smell, presumably it is just made from realgar and other things, it is supposed to be no problem to disperse some common poisonous insects and poisons.

Chu Sheng acted according to what he said, and the flowers in the valley were fragrant, making people intoxicated for a while.

But Chu Sheng didn't appreciate it.

Perhaps he was uneasy, but he always felt the soil under his feet squirmed, as if something was rolling.

I lowered my head, but only saw the dense vegetation, weaving everywhere, and I couldn't see the inside at all.

In the middle of the journey, Chu Sheng stopped, and under Qingshou's inexplicable eyes, the boy squatted down by the lake.

"Since the boy asks for something, the word etiquette still needs to be maintained."

Qingshou smiled and said: "They are all from the Jianghu, why do we need these red tapes?"

Chu Sheng glanced at him, and said in a serious manner: "That's not the case, this is also my respect for the poison doctor, if it is really disheveled, and I have lost my status for nothing, it would still seem quite disrespectful. "

It was the first time Qingshou saw Chu Sheng's respectful appearance, and wanted to say something, but after thinking about it carefully, he also felt that it made sense.

Just like negotiating between two parties, one party is in a suit and leather shoes, while the other party is wearing a sweater and vest. This shows a different attitude.

The cautious attitude of the young man in front of him is not because of his own image, but more because of respect for his master.

Thinking of this, Qingshou couldn't help smiling.

But Chu Sheng didn't touch the lake first, but moved his feet and lowered his head as if inadvertently. At this time, he bent down and saw it clearly.

He thought the valley was just dense flowers and plants connected by roots and branches, but now that he saw it, the expression on his face couldn't help but change again and again.

The ones under their feet are obviously countless endless poisonous insects and poisons, wriggling and rolling, intertwined and entwined with each other.

He came along the way, and the perception under his feet has always been like this, so he has been walking in this insect nest.

Chu Sheng's stomach faintly felt like tumbling.
Someone patted his shoulder, he looked back, Qingshou had a funny face, but said helplessly: "I never told you, no matter how you think about it, you won't think of it, so it's not like that. distressed."

"I didn't see it in my eyes, but I didn't know it in my heart. You walked all the way, even if you were in doubt, you didn't feel afraid. You just came when you came ignorantly. But you are cautious, and your feet are not stable, so you want to see How about the last glance? But is it satisfying to you?"

Qingshou smiled so badly that Chu Sheng really wanted to hammer this guy with a smile all over his face.

Thoughts came up again and again, Chu Sheng still pressed his thoughts, and silently repeated three times in his heart: "Don't lose your identity. Don't lose your identity, don't lose your identity"

If the image he built along the way collapsed here, it would be a heartache.

Suppressing the nausea, Chu Sheng picked up the clear lake water to wash his face, but he never dared to look down again.

The young man's complexion was slightly pale, and he maintained his demeanor. He brushed off the non-existent dust on his clothes, trying hard to appear unhurried.

But hands and feet are trembling involuntarily
He was almost walking on countless poisonous insects now, just thinking about this thought made Chu Sheng's face even paler.

"Let's go."

"Can you still hold on?" Qingshou narrowed his eyes slightly with a smile, he was also a handsome person, but now he looks even more graceful.

"If you can't help it, then I will take you to perform lightness kung fu."

Chu Sheng shook his head, but he didn't want to be at a disadvantage. How could a man admit that he couldn't do it?

Besides, I came here to beg someone to detoxify me, but I showed up in such a coquettish manner?Is this begging for help or slapping someone in the face?

If Qingshou took him there, he would be underestimated for no reason.
Although Chu Sheng is young, his character is high.

He tried his best to clear away distracting thoughts, and followed Qingshou step by step.

The latter didn't try to tease him too much, but just led him forward and quickened his pace.

"Brother." The young man wielding a hoe to turn over the soil also saw the two of them, dropped the hoe and came forward, but stopped halfway to stare at Chu Sheng.

"Master Chu, this is my junior brother Yu Geng." Qing Shou introduced Chu Sheng.

His eyes swept over the young man, he was ordinary-looking, dry and thin, with thin and yellow hair, but a pair of eyeballs were exceptionally bright.

Chu Sheng knew it in his heart, and there was no intention of contempt on his face. He saluted respectfully: "I have been poisoned by a scorpion in my lower body. I am here to ask the poison doctor for help. I also hope that the young hero will recommend it."

The skinny young man called Yu Geng was just a mountain citizen, he had never seen these etiquettes, let alone outsiders, but he felt that the people in front of him behaved politely, and his appearance was even more dignified, so he had a good impression at first sight.

Furthermore, this person was attracted by his senior brother, so he was naturally not a bad person, so he smiled kindly, "Teacher, I am currently studying poison techniques, Your Excellency, please come here."

Chu Sheng was eager to enter the house quickly, the squirming of his feet really made him uncomfortable, so he immediately took steps to follow behind Yu Geng.

Qingshou saw that his face was pretending to be calm, but his feet seemed to be on fire, so he suppressed a smile, but he didn't point it out, and they went forward together.

It was rare for a guest to come to the valley, the young Yu Geng was busy in and out of trouble, but Chu Sheng looked at the stone bench and stone table in front of him, and his eyes fell on the tumbling poisonous insects under it, with an inexplicable expression on his face.

Qing Shou sat down calmly and smiled at Chu Sheng, "They are just some insects. The young and talented leader of Chu is not so scared, right?"

Sitting down with hair all over his body, Chu Sheng raised his feet, not daring to touch the ground at all, and just smiled coquettishly.

"In fact, whoever it is, it's inevitable that it will be like this at the first sight." Qingshou no longer teased him, but said sincerely: "Chu's head has traveled all the way, and his face has not changed, which is really rare."

"Don't make fun of me." Although Chu Sheng also praised himself in his heart, he still had to put on a humble expression.

"Master Chu, please drink tea." Yu Geng turned out from the wooden house at this moment, offering tea cups.

Chu Sheng's expression slowly turned black, and the corners of his mouth twitched again and again.

He had drunk a lot of tea, this was the first time.

Pointing at the little bugs swimming in the teacup, Chu Sheng tried his best to maintain his demeanor, "I am ignorant and ignorant. May I ask, what is this?"

The tea water was amber in color, but there was a worm swimming in it. Its body was thick and short, its surface was brownish black, and there were many ring patterns, which could be clearly seen.Seeing all this, Chu Sheng's whole body was covered with hairs, and the smile on his face couldn't help but stiffen.

Yu Geng took a sip of the tea, thinking that Chu Sheng meant that some other sundries had fallen into the teacup, so he stretched his head to look at it, and asked doubtfully, "Is there a problem?"

is there a problem! ?
nonsense!

Chu Sheng really wanted to give this boy a blast hammer, and there was a very spicy worm swimming in it. If you didn't see it, you asked me what's the problem instead?
"This is a special product in the deep mountains and old forests of Bingzhou. It's called 'Liangshan Cordyceps'. The head of Chu has never heard of it?" Qingshou pretended to be surprised, "It is much more valuable than ginseng. It can nourish yin and yang and nourish the essence. It benefits the lungs and kidneys, and is beneficial to warriors. Moreover, its medicinal properties are mild, unlike ginseng antlers, which make people feel dry and hot, and qi and blood are rolling. It is true that there are benefits of ginseng and no harm of ginseng."

"The one in the teacup of Ru Chu's head is one of the best. Although the Liangshan Cordyceps is not comparable to the Western Daxue Mountain Cordyceps, this one is enough to exchange for a hundred taels of gold."

Chu Sheng's face changed, these words...I always feel that I seem to have a lot of shallow knowledge.

But Cordyceps knows it, but why is it really a living insect!

This is too hardcore
"By the way." Qingshou smiled maliciously, and added: "Master Chu, do you still remember the legend just mentioned?"

Chu Sheng nodded.

"It is said in the legend that after 39 days, the person who has been harmed by the poisonous miasma will produce the offspring of the most poisonous poisonous insect. These poisonous insects came out of the carrion on the night of the full moon. You have to find the jade palm at the tip of the willow tip on the moon, then drill into the root system, eat the jade palm root and grow up."

Chu Sheng didn't hear most of what Qingshou said, except for one sentence that was particularly clear.

This thing came out of a rotting corpse
Why can your sister say such a disgusting thing without changing her face, and drink the tea made by it!

This man really has a big black heart.
