Chapter 28 Chaotian Pepper
Mr. Qin drove me to gallop on the expressway to Nongshenshan. I sat in the passenger seat and looked at the blue sky, but I thought of my fiancée Yue Cailing.
Since she appeared to save me last time, she has disappeared and has never come to see me again, but her appearance is deeply imprinted in my mind and cannot be removed.
Every time before going to bed, I would take out my wedding book and take a look, and then put it under my pillow, hoping to see her in my dream...
"Boy, what are you thinking about while grinning?" Old Qin's voice interrupted my thoughts.
"Ah... Mr. Qin, I was wondering why my ghost wife Yue Cailing, who had not yet passed the door, hadn't come to see me again after so long?" I expressed my doubts, always feeling a little uneasy.
After hearing this, Mr. Qin asked at me with a smile:
"What? Do you miss your new wife?"
My face felt a little hot when I smiled.
Mr. Qin then said to me:
"The Southern Song Dynasty has been at least eight hundred years since Shaoxing. It is conceivable that the yin energy of Yue Cailing, a lonely soul who has been in the past eight hundred years, is the thickness of the yin energy on his body. Before you drink the yin-avoiding soup, every time she approaches you, she may hurt you. Once the yin energy accidentally invades your body, it can be a serious illness at a very serious condition, and even a severe life will be reduced. Yue Cailing doesn't come to you to protect you."
Mr. Qin's words made me untie the knot that bothered me in my heart. It seemed that I was thinking too much.
The car was driving on the highway. It was almost noon when Mr. Qin got off the expressway. We ate a bowl of beef noodles in a county town and continued to get on the bus.
More than an hour later, Mr. Qin took me to the foot of Nongshen Mountain and drove up the winding and rugged mountain road. Twenty or thirty minutes later, veteran Qin drove into a private forest farm courtyard.
The yard is very big. There is a shepherd dog and a big wolf dog in the big iron cage at the door. There are dozens of sheep inside. Various wood is piled up in the middle of the yard, and at the end is a row of wooden houses. The old general Qin stopped his car in front of the wooden house and said to me:
"I'm at the ninth day of the lunar month, I'm at the place, get off the bus."
As soon as Mr. Qin got out of the car, two of them came out of the wooden house, a middle-aged man with short hair and a middle-aged woman with dark skin.
When the middle-aged man saw me and Old Queen Qin, he hurriedly greeted me with a smile:
"Old Qin, yeah, is this your apprentice? What wood do you need this time?" He said, taking out a cigarette from his pocket and handing it to Old Qin and me.
"I can't smoke, thank you." I said.
Mr. Qin took the cigarette from the middle-aged man, lit it and said:
"Old Chen, I'm not here to buy materials for you this time. Do you have time to take us to Nongshen Mountain in the past two days?"
The middle-aged man named Lao Chen had a cigarette in his hand, and looked at Old Qin with some confusion and asked:
"I said, Mr. Qin, why are you going to Nongshen Mountain? The deep mountains and forests are full of snakes and insects, and you may even meet the black blind man. The old hunters under our forest farm were scared when they saw that thing. I advise you that it's nothing important, so it's not safe to go into the mountain."
The woman standing behind Lao Chen also spoke:
"In recent times, our forest farm has not gone deep into the forest. The hunters below all said that there are white-haired wolfs with a head that have become sperm in the forest. They are quite cunning and vicious. After eating human flesh, they become addicted to eating it. They even learn to speak and seduce people's souls. Nowadays, Nongshen Mountain cannot be visited."
Mr. Qin looked at them and explained:
"We went to Nongshen Mountain this time to find a hundred-year-old wild ginseng. This wild ginseng is particularly important to us. Is there a safer route to Nongshen Mountain?"
Before Old Chen could speak, a woman's voice suddenly came from behind him that I heard a very familiar woman:
"Yes, I know!"
Immediately afterwards, I saw the female traffic policeman Qin Yu walk out from behind Lao Chen. Qin Yu looked at me and Lao Qin and said with a smile:
"Old Qin, Chujiu, long time no see."
Qin Yu's appearance surprised me very much. I didn't expect to meet her in the forest farm.
"Officer Qin, why are you here?" I asked.
Qin Yu smiled at me and explained:
"This is my home. Have you not told you about it? I will introduce it to you now. This is my dad, this is my mom, and I will take my mom's surname."
I think it's really a coincidence when I hear this.
"Old Qin, I heard that you are going to Shennong Mountain. My parents should not have time tomorrow. I just happened to have a vacation these two days. I will take you into the mountain tomorrow morning. I am very familiar with the mountains. I have been there since I was a child. Don't listen to my parents' nonsense. The mountains are safe. There are no white-haired wolfs that have become sperm. It's all rumors." Qin Yu said to me, Mr. Qin.
Qin Yu's father Lao Chen became a little anxious after hearing this:
"Daughter, this is not something my parents talk nonsense here. We often meet the black blind man when we enter the mountain. The white-haired wolf who has become a sperm said to the hunters at the foot of the mountain."
"You believe them, and last year they spread rumors everywhere that there were some white-haired monsters on the mountain that can eat people. What was the result? They were digging wild Ganoderma lucidum on Nongshen Mountain. They dug so many Ganoderma lucidum down the mountain, and at least they made hundreds of thousands of dollars."
Qin Yu made her parents speechless. Old Chen smiled at Old Qin with a little embarrassedly:
"Old Qin, this is indeed not a nonsense. Or let my daughter take you into the mountain tomorrow. She has followed me to Nongshen Mountain since she was a child, and she is familiar with the route to the mountain. My wife and I have a client coming tomorrow, so I can't get rid of it. Otherwise, you have spoken, how can I not go?"
Mr. Qin said:
"It's OK, but the key issue is to put safety first. If there is really any danger in Nongshen Mountain, we will definitely go down the mountain immediately and never take risks."
Nongshen Mountain is full of deep mountains and forests, and it is rare to see people who are not familiar with nearby people easily get lost once they enter. Therefore, if you want to enter the mountain, you must have someone familiar with Nongshen Mountain, so Mr. Qin agreed to Qin Yu lead the way.
The plan to enter the mountain was decided like this and we set out tomorrow morning.
There was nothing wrong in the afternoon, so Mr. Qin asked me to help in the forest farm, so I took the initiative to help Officer Qin's father carry the wood to load the truck. The wood was less than two or three hundred kilograms, and three people carried it. I was so tired that I felt sore in the afternoon that I felt sore in my waist and back.
After finishing work, Qin Yu handed me a bottle of Red Bull:
"Chujiu didn't realize that you are still able to do physical work, just like your small body."
I showed my biceps:
"Officer Qin, don't look at me thin, I have the strength to work, don't look at me panting, I have the skills to do things."
Qin Yu gave me a blank look and said:
"Forget it, you're still panting when you say you're fat. Hurry up and take a shower in the house and rest. I'll call you for dinner later."
After taking a shower in the wooden house, I changed into a clean set of clothes. As soon as I walked out of the room, I saw that Qin Yu had already started cooking.
The stove in the forest farm is in the yard, a stove made of earth bricks, with a large iron pot on it. At this time, Qin Yu was stir-frying in front of the stove, and the shepherd dog and big wolf dog released from the iron cage surrounded her and kept wagging her tail.
"Well, it's so delicious!" I walked over and looked into the iron pot. I liked the meat stir-fried with peppers.
Qin Yu said with a smile:
"You can eat less of this later. The peppers are grown in our own yard, so spicy."
I looked down upon it after hearing it:
"I have liked spicy food since I was a child, and the spicy food is the better."
While eating, I was so spicy that I couldn't speak. Even after drinking two big bowls of cold water, my lips were swollen. This was the first time I had such a spicy chili.
Mr. Qin was interested in this Chaotian pepper, so he asked Qin Yu to pick some and put them in his pocket.
