It was a slightly pungent smell, and Rodin only smelled it once and found it unacceptable.
My first reaction was that maybe the food in each place is different, just like the Houttuynia cordata there, many people can’t accept it, right?
But when he saw that the family became happier and happier as they ate, and even had excitement and red light in their eyes, Rodin felt something was wrong.
"Village Chief, what are you eating? It looks like it's delicious to you."
The village chief didn't listen at all, but ate even faster.
They didn't stop until the dish was finished.
Then he drank a cup of tea. That tea should be a very ordinary tea, because Rodin and others also drank this tea.
After drinking, they seemed to regain some of their sanity and only then did they see Luo Dan. "What did you say, Doctor Luo?"
Fortunately, the child had nothing to eat.
"What did your sister feed you?"
The village chief finally reacted and pointed to the plate that had been eaten long ago.
"Doctor, are you talking about this dish? This is a wild vegetable here, called Suzi.
We usually use it for cold dishes, and sometimes we also use it to make rice dumplings.”
This was the first time Rodin heard that the leaves of zongzi looked like this.
"So what do you think of the taste? I see you guys eating it and it looks delicious, but as soon as I smell it, I can't stand the taste.
Just like the houttuynia cordata we have here, people in other places don’t really accept it.”
The village chief laughed after hearing this. "Doctor Luo, don't even mention you. Even the locals here can't accept it. Only people here think it's delicious."
Rodin thought this made some sense. The locals couldn't accept it, but they were the only ones who could.
"So that's how it is. It's probably a matter of taste. Let us help you clean it up."
Rodan didn't say anything more and quickly stood up and helped Ningxia clean up. Then he gave acupuncture to the village chief's wife, and finally returned to the guest room on the second floor.
The window still cannot be opened, and you can vaguely see what's outside through the bamboo curtains.
There seemed to be a lot of moonlight outside, but I couldn't see anything clearly.
Rodin also discovered that the window seemed to be closed from the outside, and there was no way to open it from the inside, which meant that the people in the room could not open the window at all.
So what secrets does the village hold at night?
Rodin didn't plan to sleep now. Instead, he took out the ancient books, which were the books left by his grandmother.
When I opened the book, I found out that it contained the strange stories of the Mu family.
It is rumored that the ancestor of the Mu family traveled all over the world and tasted hundreds of herbs and was a famous doctor.
He also cured many difficult and complicated diseases, all of which were recorded in the Mu Family Strange Stories.
When he left Yundu this time, his uncle and aunt gave him this book and told him that whenever he encountered something he didn't understand, he could open it and take a look. Maybe he could figure it out.
He also told Rodin about the jade pendant and told him to always carry it with him. It was a family heirloom of the Mu family and something left to him.
Although Rodin felt strange, he still agreed obediently.
But everything he encountered now was not difficult to explain from common sense, or rather, Rodin felt that there was a problem, but he didn't know where the problem was.
Rodin opened the book, which recorded interesting stories about the ancestors of the Mu family who traveled around the world, and of course many other cases.
This was a very precious thing to Rodin, and the Ukawa Snake was seen from this.
Rodin opened the section about the Ukawa Snake and found that there was other content behind this section with the words Ukawa Mountain written on it.
Mount Fukawa is a volcano with many unique plants, and the volcano has never erupted.
Most of those plants are poisonous, but they are mutually beneficial and antagonistic.
There is another space behind the mountain that is guarded by the world. There were three treasures back then: Baijia Mountain Range, Mujia Back Mountain, and Fukawa Volcano.
Every place is guarded by someone. In order to prevent the people from Fukawa Volcano from leaving, they ate the Fukawa Gu.
"Floating River Gu?"
Rodin stared at the poison in a daze. He had been poisoned since birth, spread through the blood.
When they grow up, they must eat perilla seeds to feed the poisonous insects, and drink floating river water to prevent them from getting hurt.
If you leave, the poison will take effect and you will die.
So they can only stay in Fukawa Mountain for the rest of their lives.
I found out yesterday that there was no mention of not being able to go out at night.
It was also mentioned above that the ancestors at that time actually found a method, which was to use the blood of the girl from the Mu family and the venom of the Fukawa snake to draw out the poison.
In fact, what this place guards is very important. Back then, the Mu family guarded a batch of treasures, which were later given to the country by my grandmother.
This is the treasure here. Since the problem of the poison has not been solved yet, the door inside cannot be opened.
It says that if future generations can solve this problem, the treasure inside will be handed over to the country.
Rodin didn't expect that there were such problems here, which meant that they couldn't solve them by themselves.
The comb and the water are both used to suppress the presence of the poison.
If it is bone, then there is no need for blood tests.
I want to see if there is any orthopedic doctor who can use the blood of the girl from the Mu family to test it.
The reason was not stated.
This is...
It’s very troublesome!
Rodin didn't expect that this would be so complicated. Fortunately, there are clues to find out what is going on. It is a good thing.
Rodin checked for a long time until four o'clock before lying down.
In a daze, Rodin had a dream. In the dream, she was in Fukawa Mountain, where there were extremely beautiful murals and many words that she could not understand but were very familiar to her.
She was about to reach out when she heard a voice.
Like the sound of a flute, she opened her eyes and went downstairs to find the village chief walking out in a daze and opening the window.
Rodin returned to the second floor and looked out the window at the floating river in the center.
Surrounded by clouds and mist, it is beautiful.
It was so beautiful that it looked like a fairyland. People from the village came out one after another, and the village was filled with the air of life.
Ningxia knocked on the door and Rodin opened it.
"Dandan, how was your rest last night?"
"Second brother, go back today and take the sample and that little brother back with you."
We still have to make it look like this. That little brother is no longer suitable to stay here.
"Then ask the third brother to come over. I have something for you."
The letter Rodin wrote overnight also included pictures, "To my master."
"Okay!" Ningxia nodded solemnly. He also had some discoveries and he had to go back and tell others.
After getting up, he told the villagers not to eat breakfast and started drawing blood. Finally, Ningxia and the young man left with 20 samples.
"Doctor Luo, it's not that I don't want you to leave, it's just that I really have no other choice. I want to save the people in the village."
