Chapter 662 I Want It All!
Fang Wujiu talked to the two men in Nanyue dialect.
Xiao Xixi listened to their chatter and kept her face dazed the whole time.
She suddenly remembered her fear of being dominated by English listening in the previous exam.
I don't know what Fang Wujiu said, but the two men gradually let down their guard, and happily invited Fang Wujiu and Xiao Xixi to their stockade.
On the way, Xiao Xixi asked the senior brother in a low voice.
"What did you just tell them?"
Fang Wujiu smiled slightly: "I said that we are You Fang Langzhong, passing through Nanyue Country, and want to come here to see the customs of Nanyue, and by the way, exchange experience with the doctor here."
Xiao Xixi: "Did they believe it?"
Fang Wujiu: "They were dubious at first. I told them a few cases that I had cured. I tried my best to make the illness more serious, and then described the treatment methods as magical, and they believed it."
Xiao Xixi was speechless.
Fang Wujiu: "I also told them that I have developed a magic medicine that can bring people back to life. They were happier when they heard it and wanted me to sell the magic medicine to them, so they invited us to the stockade. Discuss."
Xiao Xixi smacked her tongue: "Aren't they too deceiving?"
Fang Wujiu: "They just went to the doctor in a panic."
Xiao Xixi didn't know why.
Fang Wujiu: "Before I set off, Master once told me that he calculated that King Nanyue was seriously ill, and he was afraid that he would die soon."
Xiao Xixi was instantly stunned.
No wonder these people are so happy when they hear that there is a magic medicine that can bring the dead back to life.
It turned out that they wanted to buy the magic medicine and present it to King Nanyue!
Xiao Xixi immediately became more curious.
Since the master has calculated that the Nanyue King's life is soon, why is he still unwilling to come to see the Nanyue King?
Is an oath more important than an old friend's life?
I really don't understand.
There are thirty-two stockades in Nanyue Kingdom.
Xiao Xixi and Fang Wujiu were taken to one of the stockades.
They soon met the Zhaizhu.
The owner of the village was Yue Gang, a man in his thirties.
He was tall and strong, with bronze-colored skin, wearing a costume with the characteristics of Nanyue, with a headscarf wrapped around his head, and his sleeves rolled up to reveal his strong arms and dense tattoos on his arms.
In Nanyue, the more tattoos, the higher the status.
The village owner in front of him not only has tattoos on both arms, but also has many tattoos on his cheeks.
He can speak a few simple Dasheng Mandarin, but to really talk, he still has to use Nanyue dialect.
So Xiao Xixi once again fell into the terrifying whirlpool dominated by foreign language hearing.
Yue Gang and Fang Wujiu were talking seriously, but Xiao Xixi didn't understand a word from beginning to end.
Later, she simply gave up, didn't listen to anything, just buried herself in eating her own.
The owner of the village asked people to prepare food for them.
Fried silkworm chrysalis, roasted snake, fried bamboo worm, roasted frog...
All are very Nanyue characteristic things.
Xiao Xixi tasted them one by one, and felt that the taste was not bad, so she ate them happily.
After Yuegang and Fang Wujiu had finished talking, he looked back and saw that the food on the table was almost eaten up by Xiao Xixi.
In addition to being surprised, Yue Gang said something to Xiao Xixi sincerely.
Fang Wujiu helped translate.
"The owner of the village praises you for your courage."
Generally, foreigners who come to Nanyue are not used to the food here, and some timid people can be frightened and fainted on the spot.
But Xiao Xixi didn't even blink her eyes, she ate so much, which was completely inconsistent with her cute and cute appearance. In Yue Gang's opinion, this girl was really courageous.
Yue Gang originally wanted to see the magic medicine in Fang Wujiu's hands first. If it really worked wonders, he would buy the magic medicine and give it to King Nanyue.
But under Fang Wujiu's lobbying, Yue Gang changed his mind again.
He decided to send Fang Wujiu directly to King Nanyue, and let Fang Wujiu dedicate the magic medicine to King Nanyue himself.
If the magic medicine can really cure King Nanyue, King Nanyue will definitely not forget him as a matchmaker, and he must be rewarded greatly.
If the magic medicine doesn't work, it means that Fang Wujiu is a liar. If King Nanyue asks him, he will just push all the responsibilities on Fang Wujiu.
In this way, there is no need for him to be beneficial, and he does not need to take responsibility when something goes wrong.
Make sure you don't lose!
But before that, Yue Gang still had to test it out to see how deep these two outsiders were.
It was getting late, Fang Wujiu and Xiao Xixi were arranged to rest at the owner's house for one night.
Most of the houses here are made of bamboo, usually in the form of a two-story attic, and some people put the house directly on the tree trunk, which is mainly for ventilation.
Nanyue is located in the south. Once it enters the spring and summer season, it will be extremely humid, especially in summer, it is not only humid but also sultry.
So it is very important whether the house is easy to ventilate.
But such a house also has a disadvantage, that is, it is easy for snakes, insects, rats and ants to climb into the house along the gaps.
When Xiao Xixi slept until midnight, she suddenly felt her calf tighten.
She opened her eyes, sat up and looked, and found that her calf was entangled in a poisonous snake at some point.
The poisonous snake noticed that she was awake, and immediately raised its upper body, opened its mouth, bared its fangs, and hissed out the snake letter.
Normal people would be terrified when they saw this scene, but Xiao Xixi just yawned, and then, with the tendency of not letting go of the bell, he grabbed the venomous snake's seven-inch you and smashed it hard.
Before the venomous snake could bite, it died.
The snake's body that was tightly wrapped around Xiao Xixi's legs instantly softened.
Xiao Xixi originally wanted to throw this poisonous snake out, but it was a pity when she thought about it.
This snake looks quite fat, and if it is stewed, it can eat a lot of meat.
So she threw the dead snake on the table and went back to bed to go back to sleep.
The two people outside the house stayed for the whole night, but never heard a sound from inside the house, and the poisonous snake was gone forever.
When it was almost dawn, they quietly went to the village owner's residence to avoid being discovered.
They reported the matter to the Zhaizhu.
After Yue Gang finished listening, he didn't say anything and waved them all down.
When Xiao Xixi woke up, it was already bright outside.
Holding a poisonous snake in one hand and yawning in the other, she walked out of the door slowly, just to meet Fang Wujiu who lived next door.
Fang Wujiu has already washed up.
He smiled and asked, "Did you sleep well last night?"
"It's alright, but I was woken up by this little thing in the middle of the night." Xiao Xixi shook the corpse of the poisonous snake in his hand.
Fang Wujiu seemed to have expected such a result.
He said: "I also had a snake here last night, and I killed it. The body is still in the house, do you want it?"
Xiao Xixi followed him to the house to take a look, and saw that the poisonous snake was fatter than the one in his hand, and immediately became happy.
"I want it, I want it all!"
She carried two poisonous snakes and ran to the village owner.
Yue Gang was still wondering how the two foreigners would react when they discovered the poisonous snake.
Seeing Xiao Xixi and Fang Wujiu coming, he immediately stood up and was about to greet each other with a smile when he caught a glimpse of the two poisonous snakes in Xiao Xixi's hands.
His smile immediately froze on his face.
Xiao Xixi threw the two poisonous snakes on the table.
"Have you made breakfast yet? Why don't you eat snake soup!"
