Chapter 56: A female mate chooses to farm (5)
Two days later, the majestic royal convoy finally left Furong County.
Not far ahead is the strange mountain in this area where people are talking about it.
Strange mountain belongs to Nanman. Beyond Weishan, there is Baiyue County, the head of the five counties of Nanman.
Their destination is Baigui County, which is adjacent to Baiyue County. The Jinnan Palace is built in the city of Baigui County. It is said that the mountains and rivers there are beautiful and it is the most suitable place to live in the entire southern barbarians.
It's a pity that the official road does not lead to the Southern Barbarians. The next road is a mountain road carved bit by bit by generations of Southern Barbarians with brute force and perseverance.
The width is not bad, at least it can pass a carriage, but the mountain road is rugged and bumpy, making it extremely difficult for carriages and horses to walk.
People were extremely uncomfortable being jolted around in the car.
Xu Yin now understood why the Southern Barbarians were so unpopular in the eyes of the Central Plains people. They were all poor and noisy.
If you want to get rich, build roads first. Roads are not very rich.
Chunlan trotted after the carriage for a while and presented a bunch of sachets, saying that they were sent by the palace steward.
"The housekeeper said that the strange mountain starts to fog up as soon as it reaches the You hour. The fog contains miasma, and the miasma is poisonous. Bringing a sachet can help to avoid evil pets. But you still have to wear a felt hat and face veil, if you encounter someone with a strong miasma. Place, hold your breath, dont breathe it in..."
Xu Yin:
I dont want to say anything anymore.
Just wish you a safe journey.
It is very dangerous to spend the night in the mountains, especially if it is a miasma-filled mountain.
Miasma arises at You hour and disappears at Noon hour.
In other words, there are only three short hours, which is six hours, that are not affected by the miasma.
Xu Yin suddenly realized.
No wonder the leading riders started going up the mountain before noon. This was to ensure that the entire team could get out of the strange mountain before the miasma became stronger.
At this moment, I regretted buying too many things and stretching the line too long.
But then I thought about it, its better to stock up all at once than to experience such danger every time, right?
Miasma, right?
She looked for a way to deal with it.
After she received 10,000 energy points in the system mall, all the products of this issue have been unlocked.
She browsed through the pages at a glance.
Disinfectant, antidote, gas mask, protective clothing, protective gloves
Either it is not particularly suitable, or it works but is inconvenient to use.
Fortunately, the system warehouse has the "Jingyue Complete Book" collected during the peasant girl period, which contains many famous medical treatises, diagnoses, materia medica, and prescriptions. Among them, "Qihuang's Art" has an article specifically about miasma.
She read it carefully and felt quite reassured.
If you guessed correctly, this strange mountain should be Nanling, which is known by later generations as "a product of both China and foreign countries". It is extremely rich in products.
South of Nanling is "Lingnan". "Jingyue Complete Book" writes: There are many miasmas in Lingnan, represented by malaria.
She knows about malaria, which is similar to dengue fever. It is an infectious disease spread by mosquito bites. However, dengue fever is caused by Aedes mosquitoes, while malaria is caused by Anopheles mosquitoes.
Looking at it this way, the miasma mentioned by Grandma Feng is poisonous. If you inhale it, you will die from the poison. It is most likely that you are suffering from malaria.
The purpose of wearing a sachet is not to "ward off evil pets" as Grandma Feng thought, but to prevent mosquitoes from getting close to you.
This will be easy to handle. She has plenty of mosquito repellent products.
Mommy, if you light this incense in every carriage, and then refill it when it breaks, it can drive away evil spirits.
Xu Yin changed the explanation to one that was acceptable to Grandma Feng.
Let everyone share a portion of this mint flower dew and apply it on exposed parts of the body.
Let the leading soldiers shower on you along the way. Remember to remind them that they must cover their mouths and noses when showering.
"Also, if you don't come out of the strange mountain before dark, it is recommended to light a torch. Fire can drive away miasma." She removed the outer packaging of mosquito coils, replaced the glass bottles with porcelain bottles of toilet water, and replaced the lead cans with wooden barrels of pesticides. Give it to Nanny Feng.
Three-pronged approach, hoping to avoid being bitten by mosquitoes.
When the mosquito coils and toilet water were delivered to Yan Kejin, the leading rider was passing through a road section with a relatively strong miasma.
Your Majesty, my subordinates have tried these things, and they really work. Wherever they pass, snakes and insects will automatically avoid them, and there is no need for soldiers to be on guard or kill them. At this rate, we can get out of the strange mountain before dark without any accidents.
Yan Kejin held the porcelain bottle filled with toilet water and turned it over and over.
The porcelain vase was produced in Po County, Gansu Province. There is nothing special about it. However, the floral dew is very refreshing when smelled. It must be extracted from some kind of refreshing flowers and plants.
She bought this on the way too?
"This... I don't know. However, when I first left the capital, I did meet a group of Hu merchants. They didn't want any money but only the specialties of the Central Plains. She... the princess may have exchanged it from them."
Hearing Yan Qis change of title, Yan Kejin raised her eyes and glanced at him with a half-smile.
Yan Qi's cheeks felt hot at the prince's glance. Fortunately, his skin was dark and his blushing was not visible.
Give me the order and light a torch ten feet away. You dont have to wait until dark.
"yes!"
The whole team successfully walked out of the strange mountain, an hour earlier than expected.
"Girl, the prince has sent someone to rest in the village ahead tonight. If you need anything, just send someone to talk."
Xu Yin raised her eyebrows.
This is the first time I have been treated like this since I left Beijing.
Could it be that the three-pronged approach to dealing with miasma reminded him of his fiance?
There is no need, she has always been happy with the situation. What's more, we stayed at the village patriarch's house, which was much better than an ordinary farmhouse.
Yan Kejin and his men were stationed at the grain drying field ten feet away from the patriarch's home.
He has marched and fought, and camping out in the open is nothing to him.
After Xu Yin learned about it, she asked Aunt Feng to send a bag of sulfur powder.
Before going to bed, sprinkle a circle outside the tent to repel insects and snakes.
By this time, Grandma Feng had also realized that the fourth girl was not stupid. On the contrary, she had insights and knowledge that ordinary people did not have. She thought she had hidden her clumsiness in the past.
Why should we hide our clumsiness? If he had shown his smart side earlier, he wouldn't have had to suffer in Nanman.
Mother Feng couldnt figure it out, but it didnt stop her from being happy.
Madam asked her to follow the fourth girl to Nanman and promised to promote her son and daughter-in-law.
Since King Jinnan cannot leave Nanman for a day, the fourth girl cannot return to the capital as Princess Jinnan, and she has no chance to return to the capital to reunite with her family.
So if the fourth girl is good, she is good.
From the bottom of her heart, she hoped that the fourth girl would be well.
After Xu Yin finished washing, the maid had already prepared dinner.
Girl, my host has sent me some food. You can see if you are used to it. If you are not used to our food, you will be fine soon.
Xu Yin took a look and saw that there were red bean and taro cakes, rice rolls stuffed with snail meat, cold bracken, dogwood and **** slices, and a crock of red bean fragrant rice porridge and sweet soup cooked with dried lychees.
It's quite rich, but perhaps the most luxurious food the host can offer.
"You guys should sit down and eat too. I can't finish it all by myself. It tastes pretty good."
She drank porridge and ate a piece of red bean and taro cake. There was no seasoning, and there must have been no seasoning. There was only a faint fragrance of the ingredients.
Red beans are native to southern countries. It seems that I wont have to worry about eating red beans in the future.
