Aggrieved Fish Sprite

It was night, and the wind suddenly picked up, causing chaos inside and outside the capital.

Because it was the second watch, most people had already fallen asleep, and suddenly heard a sharp whistling leaking from the window, followed by the non-stop tinkling of things placed outside the house, they turned over quickly, and slammed loudly. Calling people at home.

"Where did such a strong wind come from?"

People tidied up their belongings in fear, and saw the tiles falling to the ground, and they shrank in the house and dared not go out.

Although the wind blows in spring in previous years, it is not so exaggerated, not to mention it is the middle of the night, and it is so dark outside that you can't see anything.Lanterns hanging in the neighborhood were blown away, and in some places unfortunately caught fire.

"Go to the water!"

Someone knocked on the copper basin and shouted nervously.

The watchman, who had been sheltering from the wind in the alley, also hurriedly ran to fight the fire.

There are high walls in the room, and the general fire will not spread far away, but the wind is strong tonight, and no one knows how it will burn.The houses are not far away from one another, and saving others is like saving oneself. At the moment, everyone ignored the fear and rushed to the earthen pots and wells to get water to put out the fire against the wind.

Fortunately, the wind only blew for a while, and it subsided quickly.

There was a faint thunder in the sky, as if it was going to rain.

Let's say Mo Li pushed out the window when he heard the sound of the wind blowing, and when he saw the faint fire in the distance mixed with people's shouts, he immediately put on his clothes and climbed over the wall and went out.

——General Liu specially ordered someone to find them a room very close to the wall.

The vicinity of Yiguang Gate is full of government houses, no one is inhabited yet, and there is no disturbance in the empty ones, but the situation in the few folk squares outside Yiguang Gate is not right, this happens to be the outlet of the wind, and the wind is surprisingly strong.

Meng Qi followed the ink carp out, and drove forward all the way, getting further and further away from the original direction.

Those larger houses are hung with horn lamps, so there is no danger of flooding. If a fire breaks out in time, the servants can put it out in time. The danger is mainly in the low-rise houses where ordinary people live.

Relying on his lightness skills and good eyesight, Mo Li rushed to Xichangfang, where the most fires occurred, in a short while.

The crowd rushed to the place where the fire broke out with buckets in their hands, shouting here and shouting again there, making a mess.

Mo Li took a casual look, and found that there were ordinary people in single clothes, government servants stationed in Xichangfang for interrogation, and imperial guards in armor, men, women, old and young, everyone.

When the ink carp mixed in, no one gave him a second look, and someone even gave him a wooden barrel.

It was dark, only the fire.

There were so many people, if it wasn't for his high martial arts skills, Mo Li would not have been able to find Meng Qi immediately if he was rushed by the crowd.

There are water tanks in the workshop, which are scattered in various places and managed by the Taijing government office, just to prevent the fire from spreading when the water is drained.

Ink carp didn't know where the water tank was at first, and followed the crowd for a while, then was dragged by Meng Qi to the nearest water tank.

Because it was rescued in time, the fire was not too big, otherwise the ink carp would think that it would be faster to raise the water tank with one hand to put out the fire, or let Taijing Longmai point out the underground water source and dig it out faster.

The second method can be used or not. The water can be sprayed out, but it cannot be pushed back.

There are people all around, and houses.

If this place is turned into a pond, wouldn't people be homeless?

Fortunately, under the cover of the night, no one could see other people's actions clearly. In the time they were carrying a bucket of water, Mo Li and Meng Qi could run back and forth ten times.

After pouring two buckets of water, Mo Li realized that it was better to save people than to fight the fire when he heard crying from inside.

There is too much smoke, even if the fire is extinguished, the ground is still hot, people outside will not be able to get in for a while, and people inside will not be able to get out, and they will probably choke to death inside.

Mo Li stuffed the wooden barrel to a commoner who came out to put out the fire, and then used his internal force to push away the smoke and entered the smoky room.

"There is movement over there, it seems that someone is there."

Meng Qi pointed in a direction, then picked up a crying child and went out.

Mo Li understood, the two of them might as well spread out to save people, after all, there was more than one place where the fire broke out.

After being so busy for a while, Mo Li's body was covered in soot, and his face and hair were inevitably stained. This is due to his high martial arts skills. If it were someone else, his face would be covered in black ashes.

Not long after the fire started, the house had not yet collapsed, and naturally no one was crushed under the beams.

The trapped people were just drowsy, with some bruises and falls, and a little more smoke.

Occasionally, two sober ones felt as if they were flying through the clouds, and they "flyed" in the blink of an eye, and stood in the crowd outside in the blink of an eye, shouting repeatedly in shock, but the ink carp had already gone far away.

In less than half an hour, all the fires in Xikangfang were extinguished.

Mo Li didn't stop there either, and when he came out of the gate, he happened to meet Meng Qi, so he rushed to a place where there was still fire in the distance.

"What's the matter with this gust of wind? Taijing also had such a strong wind in previous years?"

Mo Li asked this question because he felt something strange from the strong wind.

Compared with the intoxicating and abundant aura of Shangyun Mountain, the gust of wind seemed muddy and frantic. Fortunately, the aura of Taijing still existed and quickly dispelled it, so the wind disappeared after a while.

Meng Qi shook his head and said: "This is the turbid air of the earth's veins. If it accumulates a lot, it will explode once. Hasn't the doctor encountered it before?"

"...Qimaoshan doesn't have as much aura as Taijing, even if there is turbidity, it's hard for me to detect it."

"The doctor was joking, isn't there a blizzard in Pingzhou in winter that will have the effect of turbidity? This is not because of our dragon veins. On the contrary, if it encounters abundant spiritual energy, it will stop soon."

When Mo Li heard this, he couldn't help but think of the day when the black dragon appeared in Zhushan County and the snow suddenly stopped and the sky cleared up.

Meng Qi continued: "It is not entirely true to say that it is turbid air. Although Taijing is occasionally affected by the aura of dragon veins, in most cases, wind, rain, thunder and lightning have nothing to do with dragon veins, and it exists by itself."

The sudden gust of wind caught even Taijing Longmai off guard.

The two stopped suddenly, because the flames just now disappeared.

Mo Li looked around, only seeing smoke, but no fire.

"Fortunately, this is Taijing." Mo Li whispered.

He thought of the tragic scene of the earthquake in Qiuling County, the ensuing fire almost engulfed the entire county, and many people who could have been saved died.

"There are many people in Taijing, and there have been disasters of flooding in all dynasties. Thousands of people died in a fire in the Chen Dynasty. It was passed on by word of mouth. The Chu Dynasty paid special attention to it and ordered people to check it every month. Therefore, the people are very careful and dare not take the easy Lit debris piled outside the house."

They were standing in the alley, and a group of people carrying wooden barrels came to them, complaining as they walked.

"In previous years, there were occasional strong winds in the spring, but some things were blown. Why is it so strong this year?"

"You count, first it was Xingbo on the first day of the Yuan Dynasty, then there was a vision in the sky, and now this evil wind is still blowing..."

"Shut up, don't die!"

Someone stopped in a low voice, the imperial guards were still searching for rebels in the public, wouldn't it be courting death to say such things?

I can't say it, but I think so in my heart.Everyone went home, and when the doors and windows were closed, they whispered to their families.

Those white-haired old men leaned on crutches and sighed suddenly after hearing the situation outside: "I'm afraid the weather will change."

In the past 60 years, Taijing has changed three surnames. The Chen Dynasty lasted for 300 years, and the Chu Dynasty was only 39 years old. Now, the Qi Dynasty is only 16 years old and there are signs of instability. What is the reason for this?

"Let's not talk about the early Chen Dynasty. The corrupt rulers and corrupt officials harmed the common people!"

The old man scolded a few words, and then said melancholy, "When we were young, life was much easier than it is now. You young people, born in Taijing, have a small family, and you only need to be diligent and honest to feed your children. When I have nothing to do in my free time, I watch shows at Washe, drink a few cups at Tinghuaben Restaurant in the teahouse, and feel that life is going well! Cough, it wasn’t like this before!”

Elderly people like to chatter, but his children and grandchildren are answering, but they don't know where to go.

"...Rice is cheap, there are rare items everywhere, and there is plenty of money in your pocket. Did you ever lack candy at that time? Now I can't bear to buy a single candied haws for my grandchildren. How pitiful are you crying. "

The grandson in the old man's mouth was already so sleepy that he couldn't open his eyes, but he suddenly opened his eyes when he heard the candied haws, and went to tear at the skirts of his parents.The latter dragged the child to sleep in a hurry, complaining in his mouth.

Trembling, the old man went to look for the wine jar at home, but found that the wine was gone. He considered that this month's money was not enough to buy again, and couldn't help nagging again. Snake wine from the snow-capped mountains outside Guanwai.

However, those who listened didn't take it seriously, they just felt that their father was blowing nonsense again.

"...Don't you believe it? There's nothing unusual about peach blossom brewing. I heard that there are plenty of them in the south of the Yangtze River. The wine seller back then won a court... It seems to be a man named Meng. I can't remember who it is. , in short, he won his praise and was recommended, so he became popular in Taijing. Now, even the emperor's old man can't drink this wine, can it not be expensive?"

Taking a shortcut to go back, Mo Li, who was passing by the roof, was slightly taken aback, then turned to look at Meng Qi.

Meng Qi looked around subconsciously, but found nothing unexpected.

He was some distance away from the roof where the ink carp was. The ears of martial arts masters were keen, but they also had a range.

Following Meng Qi to the doctor's side, he finally heard the old man in the room muttering, "The fine wine from the Western Regions and roast mutton, Mr. Deng loved to eat them in the past, and he often sent his servants to buy them."

Meng Qi raised his eyebrows slightly, the mutton was indeed not bad.

"Now there is only one Orchid wine shop in Dongshi, and fine wines from the Western Regions have become rare because of the cut off of trade routes. Could it be that the doctor is interested? Then I have to go to the palace to look for it."

"No."

Mo Li shook his head, he looked at Meng Qi and said seriously, "The old man just said about peach blossom wine, it seems to be related to you?"

"That's the tribute wine from the Chu Dynasty. Now I have to go to the south of the Yangtze River to find it." Meng Qi nodded, then smiled, "Back then I was drinking in a restaurant with my old friends. I thought it was the favor of the southerners, and I couldn’t sell it at a higher price in Taijing, so I refused to buy the wine brought by the wine dealer.”

Among the founding heroes of the past, there happened to be one who was good at wine. When he heard that there was wine, he immediately stopped the wine dealer, bought a jar of peach blossom wine, and opened it for everyone to drink on the spot.

"...I drank one, and felt strange that the wine had a hint of aura." Meng Qi continued to recall, "It just so happened that the place where the peach blossom wine was produced was Feihe Mountain. Because of the abundant aura, The water used for brewing wine is also different. Jing Yuanhou once suffered from a secret illness on the battlefield. Every time the wind and rain came, the wound was painful, so I recommended him to drink more of this wine. Intoxicating, women can drink it, and it has become popular in Taijing."

"I see."

Mo Li cleared his doubts and continued to walk back.

But Meng Qi felt strange, so he asked: "The doctor doesn't drink alcohol, why did he even stop to ask about Taohuaniang and me in the past?"

The national teacher thought to himself: Could it be that the doctor has already attached his heart to me, and he wanted to inquire clearly when he heard that it was related to me?

"I've never heard of this wine before, because peach blossoms can be used as medicine..."

Mo Li paused, the prescriptions involved in this medicine are mostly for recuperation, if there is no medicine, just soaking in wine.Shennong’s Materia Medica just so says, take peach buds and Angelica dahurica, seal and soak in old wine for more than a month, take them out and drink.

This side can make people get "good color".

——I didn’t expect Meng Guoshi to care so much about his appearance, and even lead the government and the people of Taijing to maintain their beauty together?

It can't be blamed for Mo Li thinking this way, the people in Taijing's love for beauties is so obvious.

Mo Li thought that if Meng Qi really needed it, he could prescribe some beauty-enhancing prescriptions.

In the end, according to what Meng Qi meant, it seemed that this was not the case. Maybe it was because Meng Qi gradually "aged" but always looked very good, so he used peach blossom brewing as an excuse.

Mo Li thought as he walked, and when he met Meng Qi's eyes, he found that the national teacher seemed to be secretly happy, with unstoppable joy and pride in the corners of his brows and eyes.

"..."

I don't know why this joy is a bit of an eyesore.

Mo Li suddenly said: "I just found out today that brother Meng likes peach blossom brewing. In fact, it is not necessary to make wine. There is a record in "A Thousand Gold Prescriptions". Take peach blossoms and soak them. Drink this water often on an empty stomach, which can make your clothes wider."

Can thin waist!

Can color well!

When Mo Li first heard about Peach Blossom Brewing, he almost thought that Meng Qi was good at it.

Should the fat mouse lose weight? Doctor Mo was deep in thought.

Meng Qi: "..."

The original pride flew to the sky.

If you are struck by lightning, you will be dumbfounded.

The author has something to say:

I don’t know if peach blossom soaking water really has this effect, and I’m not sure if Sun Simiao’s Qianjin Fang was really written

Just take a look, don't take it seriously OTZ
