Chapter 41, Calculation

On the second day, the rain stopped, and there was even a round of tomorrow hanging high in the sky. After the rain, the bright weather started to heat up again.Meng Jingye left the house early in the morning, stretched in the yard, her body crackled, and she immediately felt comfortable. Except for the tightness in her chest, she was almost in good condition.

Meng Jingye looked at Ge Qingqing who was not far away, and walked slowly. When she reached about 7 steps, she saw that Ge Qingqing seemed to be aware of herself, so she took the initiative to say to Ge Qingqing: "The weather is good today!" She was dealing with it in the yard Ge Qingqing, who worked on medicinal materials, looked back at Meng Jingye, smiled, and said, "Yes." "How can there be thatch here? I'm going to start repairing the roof today." Ge Qingqing stopped what he was doing, and pointed Pointing to a small road, he said to Meng Jingye: "Follow this small road, turn left at the first intersection, then turn right at the next intersection, go straight at the third intersection, and finally reach a small bridge. Get on the bridge, walk a little further along the creek and you'll see a village, then."

"Stop, stop, stop." Meng Jingye interrupted Ge Qingqing's directions. "It's too circuitous. I can't remember it. Can you briefly describe it? Or write it down for me." Ge Qingqing thought for a while and said: "Well, let me clean up, and I'll go with you." Then Ge Qingqing returned to her house, picked up a bag of medicine, went out, and said to Meng Jingye: "I happened to be going there in the afternoon. Pick some medicine, but you can go there in the morning. It's considered a drop-in!" Meng Jingye told Dangdang and asked her to wait for him at home, and then went out with Ge Qingqing.

On the way, Meng Jingye asked Ge Qingqing a question casually: "Your house is built in the mountains, so far away from the village. Did it take a lot of effort to get the thatch when you built the house?" A rich businessman asked him to help with the repairs. He did everything for me. I don’t know very well.” It turned out that was the case, and Meng Jingye nodded secretly.After walking a short distance, beads of sweat began to form on Ge Qingqing's forehead.Meng Jingye never broke a sweat. After all, walking is not a high-intensity exercise, and it is covered by trees. Generally, people with martial arts skills will not sweat so easily.

When they arrived at the village, Meng Jingye went to the village to buy some thatch from the folks, and hired a few porters to take the maocai to Ge Qingqing's medicine hut. Ge Qingqing went to collect herbs, and asked the villagers to take Meng Jingye back. , the villagers all know the way to Ge Qingqing's place.On the ground, Meng Jingye asked people to put down the things, took a knife, went to the bamboo forest to chop some bamboo, made a ladder, and made some interesting things.Meng Jingye was on the roof, constantly patching the leaks with thatch, while looking at the structure of the roof.

Meng Jingye controlled the progress every day according to her physical condition. Although she made obvious progress every day, she couldn't repair it quickly.While Ge Qingqing was decocting the medicine for herself, Meng Jingye also quietly watched the order and location of her medicine in the room.

"Come on, drink the medicine." Ge Qingqing walked up to Meng Jingye with the medicine in hand.Meng Jingye took it, drank it sips, and looked at Ge Qingqing quietly, but Ge Qingqing kept staring at Meng Jingye, and when she saw Meng Jingye finished drinking, she smiled and said, "In two days, your injury will be gone." It should be all right." Meng Jingye nodded, which was the answer.

In the evening of the second day, before the sun set, Meng Jingye looked at the roof and thought that it should be almost done.It's best if you don't have what you want.I asked Dangdang to go outside early to help me catch a few frogs. After I caught it, I would not come back until an hour later, which was regarded as dismissing her.Ge Qingqing started decocting the medicine again.

Not long after, Ge Qingqing came to Meng Jingye with a bowl of hot medicine and said with a smile: "Here, drink the medicine."

Meng Jingye sat under the load-bearing pillar in the room today, closed her eyes and rested, and when she heard Ge Qingqing's greeting, she took the medicine bowl and was about to drink it, but Ge Qingqing took a step back slightly, the distance was not enough !A little sweat dripped down Meng Jingye's forehead, and Meng Jingye suddenly asked in surprise, "Why are there worms in the bowl?" Ge Qingqing was puzzled when he heard this, and took a step forward, leaning down to look at the bowl Meng Jingye stretched out. .

"Bang~" There was a sound of a bow string being pulled, and a bamboo arrow shot down from the roof. Ge Qingqing heard the sound and looked up, and saw that the bamboo arrow had just penetrated her neck. "How did you do it?" Meng Jingye didn't stop. Kong listened to her words, threw away the small straw rope in his hand, turned around and rushed out of the house. As soon as he ran out, he saw a deep purple mist erupting from the house, so Meng Jingye ran faster.He ran down the mountain along the road.

"Huh~huh~huh." Meng Jingye's mind was more exhausted than her body. Although she didn't know what Ge Qingqing was going to do to her, there must have been some malicious intentions. The previous medicines were all the same prescription, the same place Grabbing the medicine, the next time the medicine was almost all different, and many of them were picked by her in the past few days.Meng Jingye took a deep breath.Looking at the distant fields bathed in the moonlight and the sound of frogs, and the sparkling paddy fields, Meng Jingye stopped thinking about these things, and her mind was brought into a calm state.

"Aha~ I caught you, little frog!" An exclamation came into Meng Jingye's ears.Meng Jingye looked in the direction of the sound, standing alone in the middle of the paddy field, holding something with one hand and holding it high. "Hahaha" laughter kept coming.Meng Jingye knew that Dangdang must be there.He opened his mouth to call her, but didn't know what her name was.Meng Jingye was also surprised that she hadn't even known her name for so many years.I don’t know if it’s negligence or resistance.Even defense?Panic?
I could only yell casually: "Have you caught it? I'm here!" Dangdang obviously heard his shout, turned around and ran this way.But he was caught by the mud in the field and fell into the muddy field.When she struggled up, her whole body was already covered with muddy water, and she couldn't help crying with a "wow", and the frog in her hand ran away.

Meng Jingye jumped, flew down from the slope, landed lightly on the field ridge, waved to Dangdang who was a step or two away, and said, "Come, this way." Dangdang saw Meng Jingye He stretched out his hand, sniffed his nose, wiped his tears with his sleeve, but made his face even more blurred.He wanted to reach out to Meng Jingye's hand, but found that his hand was so dirty.After hesitating for a long time, I dare not go up.

Meng Jingye saw Dangdang's hesitation, but she grabbed Dangdang's hand without hesitation, and said she pulled her from the field and pulled her to her side.The air field opened slightly, without hurting Dangdang at all, but evaporated all the water on Dangdang's body, leaving only pieces of dried sky mud.Meng Jingye lightly touched Dangdang's body for a while, and the mud clods fell one after another, leaving only ugly marks on the clothes.
