Carry a fountain with you

Chapter 113 Old Guo's evil spirit

Lao Guo's family is an ancestral cattle-killing craft. Since the day he slaughtered cattle, the family has passed down the method of distinguishing bezoars.He has seen bezoar a few times over the years, so he is familiar with it.

After he entered the room, he didn't listen to what the people said, but just rubbed his fingers on the thing lightly a few times, then put it on the tip of his tongue to lick it, and then spit out another mouthful of saliva, which was also dyed light yellow.

Seeing everyone looking at him nervously, Lao Guo nodded and said, "It's natural bezoar. Such a piece of bezoar is at least ten grams, and it can be worth two to three thousand yuan."

Hearing this, everyone started talking again and again, praising Wuye Liu for his good luck. When he bought the scalper, many people didn't like it.It is said that the cow is too thin, and when the hair all over its body is choking, it is difficult to serve.If you get it back and raise it for a year, it may not be adjusted well.

Liu Wuye thought it was cheap at the time, so he thought he would go back and get some bran to feed, maybe he would be transferred in a few months.Unexpectedly, the grass is supplied every day, and two scoops of bran are made every meal, so it is not fattening the cow.He also planned to sell the cow after it gave birth to a calf, but in April, he went to the town several times to drive it, but it was not suitable for breeding.He was thinking about going again in a few days, but he didn't expect to encounter such a thing, which was a blessing in disguise.

Now there was no frustration on his face, and he accepted everyone's congratulations with a smile.

No wonder people say "one tael of bezoar and one tael of gold", such a small group of things is worth two or three thousand yuan?Liu Junhao looked at the bezoar in disbelief.It's just that when he thought of his own Tai Sui, he felt a little relieved.

However, his curiosity remained undiminished, and he stretched out his hand to touch the bezoar, and then put his hand on the tip of his tongue as Lao Guo did, and suddenly a cool air spread from the tip of the tongue to the root of the tongue.The taste is slightly bitter, followed by a bit of sweetness.

"Uncle Xiaohao, what does it smell like?" Xiaowazi also squeezed forward and wanted to rub his fingers.

"Sweet, almost like rock candy," Liu Junhao joked with a smile.

The brat was about to stretch out his hand, but his father pulled him back, slapped his ass and said: "You kid can't hear good words, that thing is bitter."

After the appraisal, Lao Guo wanted to buy the bezoar on the spot, but Liu Wuye didn't agree with anything, saying that his wife had a slight side-headedness, and he was going to use the bezoar to make medicine.

"Bezoar can cure migraine, why haven't I heard of it?" Old Guo asked curiously.

"You haven't heard much about it, but this is the ancestral prescription of our old Liu family," Liu Guangquan also said.

Almost everyone in Liujiagou knows the medicinal materials in this recipe, but only a few old people know the proportion of the medicine, and the young people are not interested in this thing at all.

Old Liu Tou used to gossip in front of Liu Junhao, and he knew the general idea.There are more than a dozen medicinal materials such as cloves, woody incense, borneol, musk, and bezoar.

"It doesn't work. If it really works, give me a pair. The third child in our family suffered from hemicephaly at a young age, and he complained of a headache every day. Sometimes he couldn't even eat, and he would feel nauseous and vomit after a few mouthfuls. "

Since the road was repaired, the business of Lao Guo's family has become more and more prosperous.Now his beef shop is inseparable from people.This time he was able to go to Liujiagou, of course he had heard about the killing of cows to get bezoars, and he was going to buy them for a small profit.

Seeing that Liu Wuye was determined not to sell, he went back to take care of the shop.But as soon as I heard that there was a prescription for treating migraine, I left in no hurry.

"This prescription is absolutely accurate for treating hemicephaly, but now the medicinal materials are hard to find. I guess you can't buy musk in the county. The musk that I packed at home was from the mountains when I was young. A roe deer made it, and now Daqingshan has not seen this thing for 30 to [-] years." Liu Wuye then said with some sighs.

Finally, Lao Guo talked about the treatment of bezoar. This thing should not be exposed to the sun, as it is easy to expose the surface and affect the quality.

After explaining the matter to himself, he suddenly asked again: "I heard that there is a young man in your Liujiagou who raises rice field eels very well. Who will take me to his house to have a look. My daughter-in-law is pregnant now. What do you eat these days?" It doesn't smell good, I'm going to get a few catties of rice field eel back and give her a fresh taste."

"Haha..." Hearing what he said, everyone laughed.

"Isn't it just this brat, you'll be right if you follow him." Liu Wuye pointed to Liu Junhao and said.

"You are Liu University. You have gained a lot of knowledge today, and you can see that you are a cultural person. Do you still have eels at home?" Lao Guo looked at him as if he was looking at a rare animal.

"Where is it, we are a farmer. There are eels at any time." Liu Junhao said, leading the way, leading Lao Guo towards his home.

"Be careful with the dog, the dog in my yard is very vicious." Before he entered the door, he told him that the black panther would bark wildly when people came to the house these days.

Unexpectedly, after opening the door, a shocking situation appeared: the black panther ran up to Lao Guo and wagged its tail, but Xiaopi, who was always docile, pounced on him, his sparse fur was completely erected, as if he was going to fight Lao Guo desperately generally.

"Xiaopi, back off!" Liu Junhao hastily waved his hands several times before it retreated unwillingly.

Although Xiaopi retreated to the edge of the kennel, he did not relax his vigilance at all.There was still a low whining sound from his mouth, obviously in a very excited state.

"It's macular skin. It's so powerful. I dared to jump up when I saw it. If you didn't block it quickly, I'm afraid you would at least bite me." Lao Guo touched the black leopard's head and said with a little emotion.

"Oh? What do you mean?" Liu Junhao was also wondering at the moment, it was the first time he met Xiaopi like this.Usually the dog would bark twice when he saw a stranger, but as soon as he opened his mouth to reprimand him, he would immediately retreat, but this time it was obviously different.

"You forgot what my background is, a cattle killer. In the past ten years, the cattle that have passed through my hands have not been a thousand, but seven or eight hundred. Usually, those scalpers have weak legs when they see me. They are ordinary people's cattle. The earth dog is also afraid." Lao Guo said with a little pride.

Evil spirit?Liu Junhao was a little confused.Animals are the most sensitive to the breath of people. It is estimated that Xiaopi has noticed the disturbing evil spirit on him, so he has been vigilant all the time.

"By the way, don't be upset if I ask a question, I'm just asking casually." When Lao Guo spoke, his words flickered.

"Hehe, just ask." Liu Junhao didn't know what kind of medicine he was selling in his gourd.

"Why does this dog in your yard look familiar to me?" He patted the panther's head and asked back.

"Hehe, this is Zhao Guangming's dog." Although Liu Junhao didn't understand why he was so familiar with the Black Panther, he understood his subtext: he just didn't say that his dog was stolen.

After carefully explaining the cause and effect, Lao Guo smiled a little: "This macula is really capable, and he also abducted the black panther. I said why he didn't go to me these two days."

Seeing that Liu Junhao didn't understand, he explained again: "This dog was born by my bitch, and there were five of them in a litter. The black panther was begged by that kid from the Zhao family. But it recognizes its family, and usually loves to go to me. I ran at the beef stall here, so I am familiar with it.”

"What did I say?" The misunderstanding was completely explained.Liu Junhao slapped his head and hurriedly got up to pour tea and cigarettes for others.

After Lao Guo lit a cigarette, he became interested in the fire in his house again. After sighing for a while, he remembered the eel.

Liu Junhao got him two catties of large rice field eels, but he didn't ask for money.Said that this was the advance payment for beef, and he would go to the street to get a few catties of beef from his stall in a few days and come back.

Lao Guo also laughed when he heard it, and even said to leave him three catties of good beef.

The weather was still gloomy in the morning, but I didn't expect the sun to come out at noon, and the magpies on the tree started to chirp, and the teal ducks flapped their wings and surrounded Liu Junhao looking for food.

Xiaopi chased him several times but couldn't drive him away, so he had no choice but to get half a bowl of broken rice from the house and sprinkle it on the ground, letting them spit.

A large group of chirping and noisy sparrows on the branches of the poplars immediately flew down, beckoning their friends and landing among the ducks, running and jumping, chasing each other and grabbing food.

At this time, the little turtledove also flew over from the next door, and Professor Zhao appeared at the door as expected.

"Xiaohao, lend me the sickle at your house. I'll go to the river beach to cut some reeds and build a fence to enclose the yard."

"What's the matter again, you need a lot of reeds for the courtyard wall, and it will probably take you a long time." Liu Junhao hurriedly handed him a chair.

"It's not that the lambs of Mr. Liu's family are making a fuss. They have been staring at my vegetable field these days. Four or five sheep ran over to eat if they didn't pay attention, and they ate up the few rows of cabbage planted in the spring." Zhao said. The professor said very depressed.These are trivial matters, and he is too embarrassed to go to others to talk about them.

The ewes of Liu Laosan's family gave birth to five lambs at a time in the spring, and the villagers had spread the word for a while at that time.

Now the lamb is half-baked and not enough to be tied, so it is very troublesome to run wild in and out of the village.

"That's to build a fence, or I'll go with you. I have a cart in the house, get it out later, inflate the tires, and use it to hold reeds. It only takes two trips."

"Well, it saves a lot of trouble." After Professor Zhao finished speaking, the two of them went to the side room to carry the cart.

Pulling carts can also be regarded as the crystallization of the wisdom of the working people, which evolved from carts.The weight is much lighter than that of a cart, and it is usually pulled by a ox or a donkey.If there are no animals, people can also pull them.

"You boy, how long has this cart been useless?" After lifting the cart out, Professor Zhao shook his head, pointing at the shriveled wheels.

"Usually I don't need this thing at all," Liu Junhao said as he found a pump from the house to cheer up.The cart seems to have been left untouched in the side room since the death of Liu Tou. If it wasn't for pulling reeds, it might have completely retired.
