Xiaoyao Nongjiazi

The actions of Zhong Qingran and Jian Mingyu aroused the curiosity of the city guards even more.Even so, they didn't dare to ask casually, even though Zhong Qingran and Jian Mingyu were not that kind of people with fierce and unpredictable temperaments.

As time passed, the city guards' hearts became more and more itchy, as if there were thousands of kitten paws scratching their bodies.

Zhong Qingran naturally noticed the abnormality of the city guard, but he ignored it.He didn't want to cause trouble for himself, since they didn't ask, he didn't bother to explain their doubts.

Patience has its limit, and Zhong Qingran and Jian Mingyu are not man-eating beasts. On this day, someone finally had the courage to step forward and express to their mouths the doubts that had piled up in the past few days.

Jian Mingyu and Zhong Qingran had already discussed about how they should answer if a city guard asked about this matter.Jian Mingyu looked at him peacefully. The city guard standing in front of him had an extremely ordinary attitude, but that man didn't know why, and felt a lot of pressure.

Jian Mingyu didn't cover up too much, and said bluntly: "There are still some Wuguo left, and it is about to enter the dog days. If it breaks, how can we be sorry? We have worked so hard to bring them back to Fucheng from Wugu? "

The city guards who listened with their ears all looked suddenly enlightened, that's right, how could they forget about this?Everyone still remembers those strange scenes until now, but they just don't know how the city lord preserved the Wuguo intact.If they remember correctly, the fog fruit disappeared for a quarter of an hour after it left the branch.At the beginning, they thought that the Wuguo could be taken away only by putting it in a special box, but now that they think about it, there are too many strange things.

The city guards didn't think too much about it. With the emergence of such wonders as Foggy Valley, what is impossible in this world?Maybe the city lord was lucky enough to come up with a way to keep the Wuguo until now.They have all heard about the city lord's auspicious star since he was a child.Well, unmistakably, it must be so.

Zhong Qingran never imagined that the city guards had such a strong ability to diverge their minds, and they could fill in all the flawed places by themselves only by brain supplementation.

Originally, Jian Mingyu wanted to say something more, but when he saw that Chengwei was no longer in doubt, he swallowed the words that came to his mouth.One thing more is worse than one thing less. He is not so stupid that after the matter is perfectly resolved, he will add another thing to the snake and say something more.

"What's wrong?" Zhong Qingran saw Jian Mingyu's expression was not right, so he hurriedly stepped forward to ask in a low voice.

Jian Mingyu didn't respond immediately. After thinking for a while, he lowered his voice and said solemnly: "Do you have the feeling that those deer just now are very smart?"

"Is there?" Zhong Qingran looked suspicious.

The mountains and forests surrounding Hanhai Prefecture are deserted all year round, and it is extremely common for deer to come and go in them.Besides, Zhong Qingran didn't even see the shadow of the deer herd, didn't pay much attention to it, and didn't notice anything abnormal, which is really normal.Just like Jian Mingyu believed in Zhong Qingran, Zhong Qingran would not question Jian Mingyu for no reason. His question was just an instinctive reaction.

They had no intention of hunting on this trip, and the deer ran away as soon as they ran away.What caught Jian Mingyu's mind was that he happened to find that not far from them, there were traces of deer activities, following the traces, the deer had already run away.There have been no problems up to this point, but Jian Mingyu doesn't want to miss this rare opportunity. After all, even if it is a primitive mountain forest, it will take a lot of effort to find the deer. , it seems a little unreasonable.

This is where the problem lies. When Jian Mingyu observed the whereabouts of the deer again, he found that the traces left by them were no longer clearly discernible. On the contrary, there were many and mixed hoof prints. , are difficult to trace.

If this kind of abnormality was placed before the discovery of Wuguo, perhaps Jian Mingyu would not have taken it to heart. If he couldn't figure it out, he would not think about it. However, there are two eagles at home, Dianbai and Minglei, who obviously violate the natural rules. , so Jian Mingyu couldn't help but think deeply.

Jian Mingyu told Zhong Qingran about his discoveries and suspicions.After speaking, the two looked at each other, and were stunned at the same time.This is really not good news. This place is far from Wugu. Judging from the influence of Wugu on Minglei, the attraction of Wuguo to birds and beasts is limited to a certain range. Those who live in the mountains and forests here all the year round It is absolutely impossible for animals to cross Hanhai State and go to Wugu Valley to eat Wuguo.

How smart is it to know how to cover up your tracks?If Zhong Qingran believed that this was just a normal behavior of the herd of deer, he wouldn't even believe it if he was killed.He asked Jian Mingyu, and he got a negative answer. The truth was already in front of him, and Zhong Qingran couldn't help but deceive himself.

It seems that besides Foggy Valley, there are other similar places, but I don't know whether they cover the whole world or only appear in the high mountains surrounding Hanhai Prefecture.This is nothing, the most terrible thing is that people, as the group standing at the top of the food chain in this world, seem not to be sensitive to Wuguo at all.Zhong Qingran has no doubt that with his and Jian Mingyu's aptitude, they will not be within the influence of Wuguo. The most likely reason is that Wuguo can't summon people within the radiation range at all.The future of human beings is not good.

Dianbai and Minglei, currently have the intelligence of a teenager. Other animals that have eaten Wuguo have not found any abnormalities for the time being. If other species are like this, Zhong Qingran can't help but shudder, and quickly stop such terrifying thoughts .

Thinking of this, Zhong Qingran overturned his original idea of ​​picking cubs randomly, and whispered a few words in Jian Mingyu's ear.Soon, Jian Mingyu ordered everyone to rest in place.

In desperation, Zhong Qingran planned to use the power of Fu Yunzhu again.Since he came back from the border town, he has not used the method of consuming luck for a long time. At most, he used the function of mutual conversion between luck and copper, which does not consume luck, and he can use it however he wants .

Here, Zhong Qingran was busy marking the scales on the dial with corresponding numbers one by one, starting from the beginning and ending with 59.On the other side, after everyone rested for a while, Jian Mingyu instructed the city guard to first put the cubs and chicks on wooden rings with numbers. Similarly, it starts from one and ends at 59. Those that exceed this number will be put aside first. Regardless.

After finishing all this, Zhong Qingran thought in his heart, from the sixty marked birds and beasts, select the part that can be summoned by Wuguo.As soon as this thought passed, he turned the pointer, and found that the pointer was spinning non-stop. After explaining a few words to Jian Mingyu, the city guard was busy again, and the ring marked with the last thirty numbers was removed.Turn it again, and the pointer stops at a blank space. Obviously, there are no birds or beasts that meet the requirements.

Zhong Qingran sank his mind into the lucky luck beads, and found that the consumption of lucky luck was still within the acceptable range, so he planned to continue.After repeating this several times, all creatures with qualified qualifications were picked out one by one without missing a single one.Seeing the fortune accumulated by Fu Yunzhu go down a little bit, Zhong Qingran felt quite pained.

He thought about it in his mind and found that, as far as the current situation is concerned, the probability of finding suitable creatures is so low. When the luck is exhausted to a certain extent, it is impossible to reach the number of Wuguo.Zhong Qingran was not without regrets, but he didn't force it either. It was the result of good luck that he got this great opportunity. This kind of luck is something that others can't even ask for.

Next, according to Jian Mingyu's wishes, the city guards released all the eliminated insects back to nature, but there were no cubs of birds and beasts.Without the protection of their parents, it is difficult for them to survive in the perilous mountain forest.Zhong Qingran decided to accumulate some virtues and bring them home to raise them as pets. If the number of suitable creatures is insufficient, he can just take them to the top.

After doing this, Zhong Qingran no longer blindly searched, and directly selected the closest suitable creature according to the instructions of Fu Yunzhu.After having a target, the speed will be much faster. Except for the necessary hunting breaks, the group hardly stops for anything.

Even so, when the fortune dropped to a predetermined level, it still took more than ten days.Seeing that the task of this trip was successfully completed, after resting overnight, Zhong Qingran and his party rushed back the next day without stopping.

Wuguo consumes a lot of good luck every day, the sooner they go back, the sooner they develop relationships with these creatures, the sooner they can eat Wuguo, the sooner Zhong Qingran's burden can be lightened.

Due to hurrying on their way, when Zhong Qingran and his party returned to Fucheng, everyone was dusty, their hair was messy, and there were many holes in their coats, which shocked Mr. Zhong and his wife until Zhong Qingran explained the situation. , the two elders felt at ease.

Mr. and Mrs. Zhong didn't worry much about Zhong Qingran's trip this time. The two elders knew the abilities of the third grandson and the young couple, so it was unlikely that they would encounter danger when they went into the mountains. This was different from the time they went to the border town.At that time, not only had to be vigilant against the border town, but also had to fight against such a harsh climate of ice and snow, how could we not worry about it?

After driving for several days in a row, Zhong Qingran became lively again in one night, not to mention Jian Mingyu, who had better physical fitness.To him, this level of fatigue, although not as casual as a common meal, at least it is not far from it.

As time went by, Zhong Qingran felt more and more the great effect of Wuguo, not to mention his clear mind, and his physique is getting better day by day. Up to now, Wuguo is still exerting its effect, but he didn't know that it moistens things delicately. How long will the silent improvement last?

Zhong Qingran was very conflicted in his heart. He hoped that the effect of Wuguo would be bigger and better, but he didn't want to.From the situation in Foggy Valley, it can be seen that other creatures are blessed by nature, but human beings are excluded.From the standpoint of human beings, Zhong Qingran hoped that Wuguo would come and go wherever it came from. Without it, this world would still be dominated by human beings, and no creature could threaten the status of human beings.

It's just that since the fog fruit has appeared, no one knows how the world will develop in the future, so Zhong Qingran can only try his best to strive for greater benefits, and it is what he must do to maximize the effect of the fog fruit.

Zhong Qingran was not that greedy, he never thought that to control all the resources, those birds and beasts who were lucky enough to be picked by Wuguo, except for keeping a small part for his own use, he would distribute the rest.As for how to distribute, it's simple, let the cubs choose their own masters.Anyway, these little creatures are outstanding in their respective groups, smarter than ordinary animals, and have their own preferences. Forcing them will only cause counterproductive effects. If not done well, they may even turn against their owners.

Of course, Zhong Qingran took Jian Mingyu and these animals, which were mostly juveniles, mingled with them every day, trying to cultivate their relationship, even feeding them without handing over to others, because of his own selfishness.In order to protect his family and guard Fucheng, he was not afraid to consider the impact of this matter from the worst angle.Once the strength of these creatures who have taken Wuguo is far superior to that of ordinary people, then their owners may have different ideas and form a rebel army on their own, which is not impossible.The result of getting out of control is so terrible, Zhong Qingran must reserve his backup.

After Zhong Qingran and Jian Mingyu put these small animals in place, they went back to their room to wash and rest, and they didn't talk to each other anymore, which made Mr. and Mrs. Zhong very busy.

The two elders are so worried!

Due to various reasons, small animals are temporarily kept in the east wing of the main courtyard.It would be fine if there were only birds and beasts. Most of the people in Fucheng came from farming families. How many of them have never raised chickens, ducks and pigs?But it's a wild word, who can't do it like a cat or a tiger?At best, be careful, but what happened to the various bugs in the baskets?The two elders of the silkworm bee and bee can still accept it, at least I have heard that someone tends to these things, the spiders, ants, praying mantises, grasshoppers, earth dragons next to them...

Mr. Zhong and his wife have dealt with the fields all their lives. It is impossible to say that they are afraid of these little things that can be seen in ordinary places.The problem is, once the quantity of any thing reaches a certain level, it is enough to make people feel horrified. Not to mention, these bugs, which are not very good looking, are entrenched together, and the effect is even more powerful. Terrified panic.

Thanks to the fact that the plan could not keep up with the changes, Zhong Qingran gave up his original plan and adopted the principle of more expensive and less expensive, otherwise, the scale would only be bigger than it is now.

Zhong Qingran explained in a hurry, the two elders could only follow suit with a sad face, let's deal with today first.

This time, Zhong Qingran fell into a deep sleep, and when he woke up refreshed, it was already high in the sun.He has long been accustomed to this.Now, as the lord of a city, Zhong Qingran has official duties, so he has to put on a show no matter what. The only thing he can do is to postpone the time to go to the government until the end of the day and the beginning of the day. If he really wants to sleep until he wakes up naturally, he has to Can wait until bath time.

Zhong Qingran distributed all kinds of government affairs in Fucheng to his subordinate officials by category. There were not many things that he needed to deal with. He didn't need to sit on duty. He went home to deal with his own affairs after going to the office every day, and his life was quite easy.

When Zhong Qingran woke up, he was the only one in the room. Presumably, Jian Mingyu had already gone to the school grounds.

"Qingran, that..."

Seeing Tong's hesitant to speak, Zhong Qingran knew the reason, and asked knowingly, "Grandma, what's wrong?"

Seeing the smiling face of the third grandson, Tong's face straightened, and he simply said: "Those bugs, what are you going to do with them? You can't keep them forever, can you?"

Tong's casual question got Zhong Qingran's approval, she couldn't help shivering, her eyes were full of white worms.

Zhong Qingran accepts it as soon as he sees it, he doesn't want to really scare Tong Shi: "Grandma, we will raise it for a while, and after a while, we will hand it over to someone special."

Tong Shi patted her chest, let out a breath, and said repeatedly: "That's good, that's good." She didn't want to wait on those little things that made people feel uncomfortable all day long.

"Grandma, you go and pick one, and I can feel more at ease if it follows." Zhong Qingran suggested, "Pick the one who is close to Grandma."

For other relatives, Zhong Qingran may still have scruples. He is not worried about Mr. Zhong and his wife at all.

Hearing this, Tong became interested, aside from the bugs that gave him goosebumps, she was delighted to see other animals, if she didn't think that Qingran would not bring so many cubs back for no reason, there must be a purpose So, she didn't say anything. Now that her precious grandson has said that, how could she refuse?

"Qing Ran, it's getting late, hurry up and eat breakfast, grandma will pick up something small." Tong Shi walked briskly into the east wing room, only the voice of her voice lingered in the main courtyard.

Seeing such a lively Tong family, Zhong Qingran narrowed his eyes with a smile.That's how old people should be, but they can't be dead all day, because that way their lifespan won't last long.

The east wing of the main courtyard of the Zhong family is now occupied by small animals, one for insects, birds and beasts.

Tong Shi prefers furry beasts. She looked at all the fluffy, well-fed, cubs together, not even a month old, and her eyes were full of joy.

Many of these little guys are still not weaned, so it's hard for Qingran to find food for them.

Hearing the sound of the door opening, some of the cubs opened one eye, glanced at Tong Shi, and continued to sleep soundly, and some even ignored her.

Tong Shi enshrined Qingran's words as an edict. Since the third grandson told her to choose her favorite cubs, and the other party was willing to get close to her cubs, she followed this meticulously, and didn't bother to please those who didn't like her. , and ran directly to the little guys who were staring at her.

Tong carried all the awake cubs to the ground, gathered around her feet, carefully observed their expressions, and finally reluctantly gave up the mighty beasts, and chose a little wild cat that had the most friendly attitude towards her.

Putting the cub back in its original position, Tong happily hugged the kitten and walked out of the east wing.The beauty in her heart, when the old man comes back, why don't she blow her beard and stare?This time she should come out on top, who made the old man so sad, who happened to be not at home at this time?

If Zhong Qingran knew what was going on in Tong's mind, he would probably just sigh with his hands on his forehead. It's hard to guess what the old man is thinking. Don't let the grandpa and grandma talk about each other. It's fine for him to stand by and watch the play, but it's fatal to participate in it.

Besides, it's no wonder Mr. Zhong is responsible for this matter. When Zhong Qingran was not in Fucheng, he was the one who took care of government affairs.No, Mr. Zhong saw that his third grandson was rather tired these days, so he offered to substitute for one more day.No matter from which point of view, Zhong Qingran has no reason to refuse.

When it was approaching noon, Mr. Zhong walked slowly back to the main courtyard of the Zhong family. The one who greeted him was Mrs. Tong carrying a basket and showing off to him with a smile that blinded her teeth.Is this okay?Mr. Zhong quit, immediately figured it out, turned around and pretended to be calm, but actually walked a little faster, and turned to the east wing.

"Hey, old man, why are you in a hurry, I haven't finished talking yet!" Seeing this, Tong Shi didn't dare to joke anymore, and hurriedly followed.

"Why don't you just choose a small animal? It's very simple. Is there something else going on here?" Mr. Zhong stopped in his tracks and looked at Tong Shi suspiciously.

"Hey, there really are." Mrs. Tong put down the basket, leaned into Mr. Zhong's ear, and whispered, "I don't know exactly what's going on. But, Qingran said, let's choose the little guy who likes each other. It's not like you don't know Qingran's temper, since he said so, let's do it!"

Mr. Zhong agreed deeply, pondered for a moment, and said, "How did you choose that kitten?"

Mrs. Tong truthfully told Mr. Zhong about her selection process.With such a ready-made example, Mr. Zhong didn't bother to think about it, so he followed it directly.When the two elders left the East Wing, Mr. Zhong had an extra "dog" or "wolf" in his hand?The cub is still too young, so it's hard to see it right now. When Qingran Mingyu comes back, I'll ask them to confirm.

After Zhong Qingran had breakfast, he went to Huaxia Academy for a stroll. Seeing that the academy was operating normally, he took advantage of the break to find the three students who were studying medicine and pharmacy.

Zhong Qingran is different from Jian Mingyu.Jian Mingyu is in charge of teaching martial arts, and there are several teaching assistants. When he is away, the teaching assistants will be on top.Zhong Qingran was not the case. Several doctors not only taught Chinese medicine, but also were responsible for diagnosing and treating patients. Where would they be free to help Zhong Qingran take over?Besides, they are not good at medicine, and they don't dare to do anything at will. If something goes wrong, wouldn't it be a mistake?Medicine is different from other subjects. No matter what part of the treatment goes wrong, it may lead to minor illnesses and serious illnesses, or even kill people. How can we fool around at will?

Zhong Qingran has been away for nearly a month, and the class of pharmacy has also been suspended for a month.He didn't expect that it would take such a long time. Therefore, there were not many homework assigned in advance, and they probably finished it long ago. For the remaining days, they could only rely on their self-consciousness.As far as his perception of the only three students is concerned, he doesn't need to worry about this, the three students are aware of it.

The class break was very short, and it took Zhong Qingran a lot of work just to find all three of his students. In the remaining time, I could only make a long story short. After explaining to them, classes will resume tomorrow, and all the homework will be collected. It's time for the next class.

Zhong Qingran carefully corrected the homework that the students handed in.Just as he thought, all three of his students worked hard, and although not all of their assignments were correct, at least they tried their best.Zhong Qingran was very satisfied with this. These three people were not stupid, and their attitudes were extremely correct, which was rare.As long as they maintain this attitude, the future can be expected.

Zhong Qingran put down his homework, leaned back in his chair, and fell into deep thought.There is no doubt about the importance of the academy. Human subjectivity is too strong, and it is difficult to do well by relying on human governance. No matter how good the original idea is, in the end, it will develop into an unrecognizable appearance. He can only issue various rules and regulations. effort.
