I have become a god with hot pot

Before leaving the village, Jiang Si, a handsome boy with ginger red short hair, confirmed with Guo Guo one last time in a trance: "Are you sure...you really want plaster? It's not something else, did you remember the name wrong?"

Guo Guo stood at the entrance of the village to see him off, "That's right, what I want is raw gypsum, and other things I need, you can help me see what I can buy as soon as possible... Whether I can live to see the sun tomorrow is a matter of life and death." The major events will depend on you, Jiang Si!"

Jiang Sixin thought it was true, and nodded with a sense of mission.

Guo Guo reached out and touched the oil-paper bag in his arms, "Will the things I entrust you to buy cost a lot of money? Why don't I give it to you first..."

"It's okay, I'll go shopping first, and I'll talk about the money later." Jiang Si didn't know what to think, and shook his head, "I happened to be selling some things recently, and I still have some money on hand, so I'll help you with it first , so you have to work harder to heal the priest and survive."

The road was covered with heavy snow. In such weather, it is not allowed to ride horses or drive cattle on the snow for several hours. Jiang Si tied the sled ropes to the six snow dogs he raised and blew a Whistle, the snow dogs all understood, and the sled quickly disappeared into the white land with Jiang Si on it.

An hour ago, Jiang Si helped Guo Guo persuade the chief, walked into the yurt against the unfriendly eyes of the villagers, and observed the sick priestess up close.

The priestess had a sallow complexion, and when she coughed violently, it made people worry. Her face showed a very unhealthy blush due to the high fever. The female villager next to her held a towel and wiped the sweat from her face and neck for her. Wipe it off, although she is still awake, her body is already very weak.

When entering, Guo Guo took a look at her breakfast by the way, and was amazed at the contents—he ate a dish as heavy as boiled mutton early in the morning, so he couldn't help but asked Jiang Si, who was acting as an interpreter, suspiciously. "Do you people here usually eat like this?"

Jiang Si was taken aback by his question, "That's right, we have the longest winter here, and although it's almost the beginning of spring, the berries on this land haven't matured yet, and foods like vegetables and fruits are available on this island. It is a precious food that cannot be sought. In this season, apart from slaughtering cattle and sheep, because these livestock can live on dried pasture in winter, or we go out to sea to catch fish, so there is really nothing else to eat.”

Guo Guo thought about the climate and geographical environment on their side, and found that this is indeed the case, but he saw the symptoms of this priestess, which seemed to be that the heat in the body could not be released, and the lung qi was out of balance, which is why he came out like this. Khan was coughing, and in severe cases, she couldn't even put on clothes, and every meal she ate was beef and mutton, so eating meat that would generate heat in her stomach would only cause heat toxins to continue to accumulate in her body.

Guo Guo is not a doctor, so he is only [-]% sure of his own judgment, but as a hot pot handed down from ancient China, he still has research on the hot and cold properties of ingredients in the four seasons.

He knows what to eat for heat accumulation, and what kind of food to use to neutralize and resolve it. Using food as a tonic to nourish qi and protect the body has many similarities with traditional Chinese medicine.

After coming out of the yurt, Guo Guo thought for half an hour, and while discussing with Jiang Si what things were available in the local area, he finally worked out the materials he initially needed.

He bought his own life for a day, and naturally hoped to make some changes to help the mother of the twins recover.At this moment, although he couldn't understand what the villagers were arguing about him with unfriendly expressions, he had no doubt that some of them were clamoring to burn themselves to death.

He looked at the human-shaped translator standing beside him. The handsome young Jiang Si had ginger-red hair, and his name also contained the word "Ginger". His name was as recognizable as his hair color.

After a follow-up conversation, Guo Guo discovered that, as he said, Jiang Si was not from this village, he lived in another village on the island, and today he only came to this village to sell goods, but he did not expect to solve Guo Guo’s difficulties .

And Guo Guo asked Jiang Si to go to a slightly larger village on the other side of the island to buy things. Not to mention the people in this village, even Jiang Si’s has never heard of it. Guo Guo is not very optimistic, and Jiang Si is very optimistic. May not be able to find everything he needs.

The good thing is that there are more choices on the island in early spring than in winter. According to what Jiang Si said, if you search in the mountains over there, you might be able to find something useful.

Guo Guo decided to try his luck.

He turned his head and looked at where he was standing, there was a mountain peak visible to the naked eye.

Although the hillside is within visual distance, it will take a while to walk there. The top of the mountain is covered with white snow, but you can see lush trees on the mountainside. When Guo Guo walked to the other side of the mountain, the sun had already reached the sun. In the middle, the temperature has also warmed up a lot.

Before coming here, Guo Guo was not sure how much material he could find on the mountain side, but as he got closer to the foot of the mountain, seeing the melting water from the snow-capped mountain flowing into the stream, he felt more at ease.

Snow can be turned into water, at least it shows that the temperature at the foot of the mountain is above zero, and the stream flows through, providing sufficient water for the plants.

When Guoguo approached the foot of the mountain, he saw the unearthed greenness on a slope. There are not only snow mountains, but also valleys and creeks. It can be said that it is a natural farm that provides a variety of natural ingredients.

Especially on the hillside facing the sun, green grass has grown due to more sunlight. Guo Guo leaned over and walked by the grass. After searching carefully among a group of grass, he actually found what he wanted. , He squatted down and picked up the roots, and then put them in the sun to watch.

It was a licorice plant growing in the sunny place. If you search carefully, there are still many traces of licorice hidden in this grassland.

Guo Guo waved to the jungle behind him, "Brothers, don't hide, come out together."

The chief will not let Guo Guo act alone on the island. Rather than worrying about him running away, he is more worried about his character, afraid that he will really do something harmful to the village, so he sent loyal Geng Geng, a young man in the village, followed and monitored Guo Guo's movements all the way.

But Guo Guo had discovered them a long time ago, and these ready-made manpower were simply useless to find something at this time.Under his persistent calling, three young men in furs and with bows and arrows on their backs really came out.

Guo Guo raised the grass in his hand with a smile on his face, and gestured with the three young people. Through body language and guessing, he did not expect that they would successfully reach an agreement. Two of the three people were actually divided. , helped Guo Guo find licorice on the sunny side of the hillside.

After being helped, Guo Guo quickly collected enough licorice, and now he didn't even need to carry the grass himself, and directly handed it over to the people behind to help him carry it with the cloak. He led three followers into the valley to find new ingredients.

He and the young people in the village had a meal in the mountains. Guo Guo used the mountain hares they had brought, picked up the scattered fragrant wood branches, and used some licorice and other spices to make barbecue hares on the spot. Guo Guo The smoked and roasted rabbit meat tasted very good. The hare was roasted on the spot until it was burnt, and three coolies were hired to help him work on the spot.

It was already afternoon when Guo Guo returned to the village.

Jiang Si has not rushed back yet, but the days on the island are relatively short, and the sky darkens rapidly after entering the evening. Although there are no clocks here, according to Guo Guo's body feeling prediction, it is only around four o'clock in the afternoon, and the temperature has begun to drop significantly , the sky also darkened.

Guo Guoer handled the things they picked on the mountain quickly and nimbly. He really couldn't find some things in the mountain, so he had to hope that Jiang Si could bring them back.

The man who watched Guo Guo saw that he had returned to the village, and took a shift break with the other two brothers, and went home for dinner one after another. Because of the half-day together, their vigilance against Guo Guo was also much lower. Looking at Guo Guo He obediently washed licorice and smashed apricots in an empty room assigned to him, but he didn't feel anything unusual.

When Jiang Si hurried back, Guo Guo had already dealt with everything at hand.

Seeing Jiang Si coming in with a box in his arms, Guo Guo immediately went up to help, "What did you buy?"

"Gypsum, soybeans, a clean cloth, a stone mill...these are all you want."

Guo Guo checked the past one by one, but finally his face became a little dignified, "Where's the ephedra? Didn't you buy ephedra?"

Jiang Si scratched his hair in embarrassment, "I'm sorry, I've asked this everywhere, not only myself, but even others don't know what ephedra is... Is this thing called ephedra important?"

It is indeed very important. Among the things Guo Guo wants to make, ephedra is indeed a very useful raw material.

But logically speaking, ephedra grows in a very wide area. Even in severe cold areas, it can still withstand the cold, but why can't you see ephedra here?

Guo Guo described the characteristics of ephedra flowering and fruiting, and Jiang Si suddenly realized: "I may know what you are talking about. That thing is called 'devil grass' in our place."

Guo Guo had an ominous premonition, and he heard Jiang Si continue to say: "We locals keep a respectful distance from this kind of grass and never touch it, because I don't know which generation of priests once said that there are demons living in this thing."

Listening to this description, Guo Guo showed a skeptical look: "Are the priests on this island so high? Are their predictions accurate?"

"...The priests of this generation are actually quite reliable, at least half of the accuracy... right?"

The two looked at each other for a while, and Jiang Si slowly became alert, and he heard Guo Guo's idea: "Where is that piece of devil's weed? I'll go and see if it's the ephedra I'm looking for."

Jiang Si tried to stop Guo Guo and let him kill this idea in the cradle: "On our island, the gathering place of devil's weed is guarded from morning to night, you... what do you want to do?"

Guo Guo insisted very calmly: "I just want to find ephedra. Okay, where is the devil's weed you mentioned? Show me the way."

Unable to withstand Guo Guo's soft and hard demands, Jiang Si finally compromised.He pointed to a direction in the darkness, "Going northwest, there is a piece of devil grass, and there are people watching at night by the grass, because the island believes that fire can drive away evil spirits, so there is also a bonfire at night."

"One last small question." Guo Guo looked outside to see if there was a man in the village guarding him. This brother was so hungry that he was left behind because his friends went home for dinner. This is the time when the defense is most lax.

"Help people to the end, you see we are about the same height, how about... okay?"

Jiang Si looked at him sincerely: "No, I'm taller than you."

Ten minutes later, the yawning man at the door watched "Jiang Si" come out wrapped in a fur coat. He seemed to put a hood on his head to keep out the cold because it was cold. , just bowed his head and walked out.

The bored man turned his head and glanced at "Guo Guo" in the door, and was still sitting there quietly washing soybeans, so he ignored "Jiang Si" and let him go out.

"Jiang Si" lowered the brim of his hat, and hurried out of the village, until he reached the outside of the village, finally dropped his strenuously tiptoed feet back to the ground, and hurried to the northwest.

When he arrived at the place Jiang Si mentioned, it was already completely dark, and the smoldering bonfire was indeed very conspicuous in the dark night.

Guo Guo touched it lightly. He hid in the nearby forest and observed the deity lineup of "Devil Grass".

Under the light of the fire, this is indeed the ephedra he was looking for, but it has not yet bloomed and bear fruit this season, so it is just an ordinary green plant. Ephedra itself is a common Chinese herbal medicine in China, but it is regarded as an evil devil by the people here , is also very unclear.

Guo Guo observed their range of night duty, and felt as if he understood it, but he was a little dizzy and didn't understand it.After all, he is not familiar with this place, and as a hot pot and not good at reconnaissance tasks, he must not be as sensitive as the locals.

He thought that no one here knew him anyway, so he would go up and steal it, and if he was found, he would run away.

So Guo Guo waited for a person to pass by, then simply rushed into the pile of ephedra, picked up a small shovel and started digging.

He was quite lucky, when Guo Guo dug up enough ephedra and was about to sneak away, he was caught.

A guard came over from his side and met Guo Guo face to face in the firelight. The man looked at Guo Guo in surprise, and Guo Guo picked up the ephedra he had dug out nimbly and ran away.

He heard someone murmuring behind him in a language he didn't understand, and the tone didn't sound like any good words, so the witty Guo Guo ran away without even looking back.

There was an arrow coming from behind, and Guo Guo had already gone back into the woods. The dark woods provided Guo Guo with a natural and strong protective umbrella, so when he rushed into the woods, those people could not catch him. After searching for a few laps, I found that I had completely lost the person.

The guards gathered together and saw the person with Guo Guo's side face mumbled to everyone about the height and appearance of the prisoner, and then continued to search the forest without giving up.

Guo Guo's heart was pounding, he had been a good citizen for thousands of years, and suddenly he became a thief, stealing and running away was very exciting.According to the direction he remembered, he ran wildly in the direction of the village for a long time when he rushed here, and only after he confirmed that no one behind him was following him did he slow down and catch his breath.

He slowed down and continued to walk forward along the route in memory, but the more he walked, the more he felt puzzled. He thought that after walking for so long, he should have reached the village soon. Didn't you see the flames in it?

He walked and walked, and suddenly found himself out of the woods, but before he was happy, he felt a gust of sea breeze blowing on his face with a salty smell.

Guo Guo was very puzzled, he walked back to the village, how did he end up at the beach?

There was a sound of waves coming from the beach. Guo Guo thought about the location where he landed in the morning, and wanted to walk around to see if he could find a familiar feeling. When he was leading him on the way back to the village, he heard the sound of The faint sound of breathing from the sea.

There are people by the sea.

Guo Guo stopped in his tracks, identified the direction of the voice under the moonlight, and raised his voice to ask, "Who is it?"

The person lying on the beach finally let go of his killing alert after hearing Guo Guo's voice.

Struggling with the last bit of strength, he grabbed the knife and cut off his shoulder-length mid-length hair, and then threw the golden hair into the seawater together with the knife.

The night covered the waves and took away all traces of deja vu.

Guo Guo under the moonlight was approaching him, "Who is there?"
