Chapter 1113: Poison Tea
With deep doubts, the two walked into the village, where someone had already gotten up and was pouring a night pot outside.
Seeing a man and a woman coming, the unkempt villager didn't show much curiosity, but the red rainbow Liuyun next to him attracted his attention, not an appreciative look, but an undisguised greed, it seemed that the red rainbow Liuyun was regarded as a good meal!
"This big brother, it's polite!" Xuan Bao bowed his hand to the man and said hello.
The man rubbed his eyes that were still covered with, looked him up and down, and then looked at the masked Xiao Yin behind him, and said coldly, "Who are you looking for?"
Xuan Bao shook his head and said: "We are not here to find people, we are here to find Shengyang Grass, my family has practiced medicine for generations, I heard that there is Shengyang Grass here, but I didn't see it all the way, can my eldest brother take me to find it?"
Looking at the man's suspicious face, Xuan Bao hurriedly added: "Or I can buy it, if the eldest brother has it at home, I can buy it for as much as I want!"
The man looked silent, rolled his eyes and looked at Xuanbao and said, "The silver is useless here! If you want it, keep this horse!"
What a big appetite! Chihong Liuyun is Xuanbao's treasure, of course he won't stay here, Xuanbao smiled and said to the man: "This is forgiven! Okay, then I'll look for it again, and I won't delay the time of the eldest brother!"
Xuanbao gave his hand to the man, holding Xiaoyin with one hand and Chihong Liuyun with the other, and slowly walked forward. The man suddenly stopped him: "Wait!"
When Xuanbao turned around and looked at him suspiciously, the man squeezed out a smile and said to him: "I was joking with you just now!
Xuan Bao smiled slightly, nodded at him and said, "Okay!
Xiao Yin next to him pinched his palm with his fingers, and Xuan Bao smiled and shook his head at her gently, signaling her not to be nervous.
It's just a mortal, and it's impossible to cause any harm to the two of them, so there's no need to be afraid of any danger. Even the Red Rainbow Liuyun was not sent into the Origin Realm, leaving itself outside the door.
The people in this village are very guarded, not only to outsiders, but also to the same village. Because in such a poor place, there is still a yard.
And the yard is actually empty, there are no chickens and ducks, and there are no livestock, just piled up some sundries, which is nothing to steal at all, but there is still a yard surrounded by a fence, and the whole village is like this, which really makes people cry and laugh.
There were no elderly people in the house, only an unkempt woman with a child on her back and one in her arms, breastfeeding. When he saw the living person coming, he didn't avoid it, but just looked at him with a pair of indifferent eyes.
Xuanbao turned his head away, and his eyes surveyed the courtyard to see if there was a yang grass there. I thought the man was lying to him, but he really found a large amount of raw yang grass in a south room.
Xiao Yin said hello to the woman, the woman just nodded, heard the voice of an outsider, and two more children came out of the house, these two are older, a man and a woman, the woman should be the sister, about eleven or twelve years old, and the man is seven or eight years old. The two children didn't speak, just glanced at Xuanbao and Xiaoyin, and then slowly walked back.
I always feel that this family is a little weird, and as for where the blame is, I can't think of it for a while. There is no shortage of nose and eyes, and the body looks quite healthy, why does it feel so awkward!
In the courtyard, there are two stone slabs supported by earthen platforms, which are equivalent to stone tables, and there are several mounds next to them, which are covered with straw mats, which can be regarded as benches.
The man beckoned the two to sit down, and then walked into the room. The woman standing at the door walked over with a pulled face, looked down at Xiao Yin and said, "What are you doing at my house, go!"
Her voice was not high, and could only be heard by three people. Xuan Bao was still stunned for a moment, this woman is really not a hospitable master, so she directly blasted the guests out!
"Sister-in-law, we just want to buy some raw yang grass, and we will give money!" Xuan Bao explained to the woman with a smile.
Unexpectedly, the woman ignored him at all, just stared at Xiao Yin and said, "Go! Don't be at my house, you go out quickly!"
This woman grew up to be very ugly, and when she got angry, she looked hideous, like a leopard ready to eat people! Xiao Yin was probably frightened by her appearance, but just looked at her in surprise and did not speak.
Just then, the man came out of the house and yelled at the woman, "What are you doing here? Don't frighten the guests, get out of the way!"
Reluctantly, the woman took the child and left, and walked back into the house. The man held a teapot in his hand, held two broken bowls, put them in front of Xuanbao and Xiaoyin, and said, "I don't have anything here, since you are here to find Shengyang grass, then use this to entertain you!"
The teapot was full of red tea, and the man poured a bowl for each of them, put it down in front of them, and said, "How much do you want?
"Okay, then thank you big brother first!" Xuan Bao arched his hand to the man and looked at the tea in front of him. The color is very unsightly, it seems to be a little black, but it doesn't smell at all.
Xiao Yin picked up the bowl and turned her back, as if she had taken a sip. If a woman is a masked guest and doesn't want others to see her appearance, most of them will not remove their masks in front of strangers, and they will turn around and drink water again.
When she turned around, she glanced at Xuanbao quickly, Xuanbao had a good idea with her, how could she not know what she meant, the tea is poisonous!
However, Xuanbao was not afraid, seeing that Xiao Yin drank half a bowl, he was not polite, and picked up the bowl and wiped it out!
The man smiled at the corner of his mouth, pointed to the south house and said to Xuanbao: "There are some Yangyang grass there, but you can only take a little bit, and I will take you to the river to find the rest, and there are some of them!"
"Then let's go now!" Xuan Bao stood up and said to Xiao Yin, "If there are a lot, let's hire a car to pull it back!" Xiao Yin nodded and stood up.
"Don't drink for one night more?" The man held a teapot, which still contained more than half a pot of tea, looking a little pity.
Xuan Bao shook his head and said, "No, big brother, let's go to the river first!"
"Okay!" The man didn't say much, put the teapot down, and said to Xuanbao, "I'll take you there!"
Except for the courtyard, the red rainbow is no longer at the door! A look of surprise flashed in the man's eyes, as if the conspiracy had succeeded.
Xuanbao was not in a hurry, but just whistled, and a fiery red shadow appeared, stopping beside Xuanbao in the blink of an eye.
The man looked at the horse dumbfounded, and he didn't know where it had jumped out, and his face was shocked, and he couldn't hide his disappointment!
Xuan Bao just smiled slightly, helped Xiao Yin to the horse, and he led the horse forward below. The village of less than 200 households is not very large, and it has been out of the village in the time of walking a stick of incense, and it is surrounded by a wilderness, but it is still much better than before, at least you can see the scattered trees.
A few fourteen or fifteen-year-old half-grown children ran from the front like crazy, two of them were still holding knives in their hands, and their eyes were like ghosts, and they couldn't imagine how it suddenly returned to the side of this man and woman!
It's just that they kept running, even when they came to Xuanbao's face, they didn't stop, although their faces were already covered with sweat, but their footsteps didn't stop, and they circled around Xuanbao and Chihong Liuyun from afar.
Chihong Liuyun looked at the children who secretly hid the knife behind their backs with disdainful eyes, and sneezed in his nose. It's a no-brainer to deal with such a bunch of people!
"Get out of the way!" Seeing a few children running around, the man's face turned pale, and he scolded to let those children go away, and then continued to walk forward with Xuanbao, and soon saw a wide river!
The Yin Snake King has mentioned this village and the river, but he is the Yin Snake King after all, he has a relatively cold temperament, and his purpose is very single-minded, except for doing tasks and goals, he is too lazy to take care of people and things other than goals. So he came here and got a lot of valuable information, but it was not comprehensive, which is why Xuanbao wanted to come in person.
The river is about a dozen zhang wide and has a large current. It should be the groundwater of Chaoyun Mountain as the source. The important thing is that Xuan Bao and Xiao Yin found a large area of green here!
Along the way, even in the endless wasteland, all Xuan Bao's eyes saw was that yellow-green sawgrass, and it was rare for this kind of scenery with flowers in full bloom and green trees!
This is the color that represents life, and even the river in front of him is not as turbid as Xuanbao imagined, but a little clear. Xuanbao walked into the river, looked at the river under his feet, and then took a sip with his hand, and the entrance was actually sweet!
This river has passed through the Yin Forest, and it has also flowed through half of the inner wilderness, and it is still a sweet water with vitality, if you don't see it with your own eyes, even Xuanbao feels incredible!
Xiao Yin got off the back of the red rainbow and walked to the river. Xuan Bao looked at the man's slightly anxious face, but he tried his best to hide it, and said to him with a smile: "Big brother, these are the Yang Grass, right? Let's just see for ourselves, if you have something to do, go and get busy first, we won't leave for a while!"
The man thought for a while, his eyes looked at Xuan Bao and Xiao Yin, and finally landed on Chihong Liuyun's body, seemingly hesitating, but finally nodded and said, "Okay! I'll go back and get the sickle, and I'll be back in a while!" he said and ran to the village impatiently.
When he walked away, Xiao Yin squinted at the man's back and said to Xuanbao: "He is not a good person, but his wife still has some kindness." ”
Xuan Bao nodded, and asked her with a smile, "That bowl of medicine is not Yang Grass, what kind of poison is it?"
"That's indeed Yang Cao!" Xiao Yin shook her head at him, looked at his strange look, and explained, "It's just that Yang Yang Cao is used in medicine, and it must be boiled to dissolve the toxins." It is not okay to soak it in hot water, it will definitely be poisoned! Not to mention that he has added sawgrass to it! It is also the first time that I know that when sawgrass is mixed with shengyang grass, it will turn into poison!"
Xuan Bao nodded, sighing for this man's vicious heart, it seems that the Yin Snake King's reluctance to deal with the living is also understandable, and no one knows what kind of intentions are hidden behind the smile you face!
