The rural doctor bought a husband who was very treacherous

Chapter 173: Gu Insect Illustrated Book

"Young Master." Hearing Su Tang's door open, Chunmei and others came out from the room next door.

"Well, let's go and ask if there is breakfast. After eating, we will continue on our way." After Su Tang and Chunmei finished talking, they went to the outside of Professor Tian's room.

She knocked on the door several times, and after a long while, she heard the sound of footsteps from inside.

"Ha, you're up." Professor Tian yawned and looked at Su Tang with a pair of dark circles under his eyes, with no spirit in his eyes.

"What did you do last night?" You must have not slept all night.

"Ha, I was fiddling with medicinal herbs at night and forgot the time." Professor Tian yawned again.

Su Tang was not surprised. Professor Tian was like this in his previous life. He loved to study medicine and always forgot about time.

"Hey, there was a recipe that I hadn't figured out before. I suddenly thought of an idea before going to bed last night, so I gave it a try."

"Then breakfast..."

"I'm not going to have breakfast. I'm going to pack up now and go to sleep in the car. We'll go on our way later." After Professor Tian said this, he turned around and went back into the house to start packing.

Su Tang followed him in, "What are they? I'll help you sort them out."

"This, this, and the stove over there. By the way, the stove is probably still hot, so you have to be careful." Professor Tian pointed to a few places and said to Su Tang, then he yawned again.

"Well, go to the car and sleep. We'll be there after breakfast."

"Well, okay." Professor Tian waved his hand, rubbing his eyes which were almost unable to open, and left.

Su Tang shook her head helplessly, walked to the things Professor Tian mentioned and started packing them.

She waved her hand and put Professor Tian's belongings in the house into the space, then went outside.

After breakfast, the group set off again.

Su Tang leaned against the car and read a book. She had just seen this book when she was packing up Professor Tian's things. There was a big word "Gu" drawn on the outside of the book.

"I was really shocked when I saw Mr. Tian in the morning. How come he looked more haggard after sleeping in an inn all night than after sitting in the car all day?" Xia Mei and a few others were sitting on the outside of the car and chatting.

"Yeah, I saw it too. The blue under the eyes is so heavy. You should get enough sleep when you are older." Qiumei replied.

"Just before we set off, I went to take a look and saw Mr. Tian had fallen asleep in the car. He was snoring very loudly." After Xia Mei finished speaking, a few of them laughed quietly.

Su Tang listened to what they said while flipping through the book in her hand.

I don’t know where Professor Tian got this book, but the poisonous insects drawn on it are very vivid. Some of them are painted in bright colors, as poisonous insects should have colors.

There is a kind of poisonous insect on each page, and there are text labels under the pictures, but Su Tang cannot understand these words. Fortunately, Professor Arita wrote the notes in simplified Chinese.

Su Tang flipped through the pages one by one, and soon she could no longer hear the conversation between Chunmei and the others.

The book about poisonous insects contains all the knowledge that Su Tang had never known before. In addition to curing diseases, poisonous insects are more useful for controlling people.

Moreover, the appearances of these poisonous insects are all kinds of strange. On the last page, there is a picture of a white fleshy worm that looks like a silkworm.

Below the picture, Professor Tian wrote in simplified Chinese characters, "Ice Silkworm, an ancient poisonous insect, a treasure of the Wu clan, its age is unknown, it is said to have been fed with blood by successive generations of Southern Xinjiang Wu clan saints, it produces a baby poisonous insect every hundred years, the baby poisonous insect can be used to heal people, but it can also be used to kill people."

How can a worm both save people and kill them?

Su Tang held his chin in his hand and thought. This insect is worth studying, but Su Tang also knows that this kind of poisonous insect is only produced once every hundred years and will definitely not be seen by outsiders.

After closing the book, Su Tang had already memorized everything that had just been written in the book.

When Professor Tian wakes up, she can go to him for advice.

At night, because the roadside post station was full, Su Tang and her friends had to park the carriage in the open space next to the post station, and they spent the night in the carriage.

The two coachmen went to Professor Tian's carriage to rest at night, but in fact they were sent back to the space by Su Tang.

This time she was not in a hurry to bring the person out, she could just wait until tomorrow morning to bring someone else out.

"These are the things I collected for you this morning. This book is quite rare. I took a look at it." Su Tang put out all the things she collected in the morning. She wondered if Professor Tian would need them in a while.

After all, the way he looked before, he looked like he was in a hurry to prove something.

"Hehehe, okay, I was dreaming about this today. By the way, this illustrated book of poisonous insects is something I accidentally found in Southern Xinjiang. You can take a look at it. The little insects in the book are quite interesting. We can get a few and raise them when we have time."

Su Tang nodded after hearing this. It was indeed necessary to study this poisonous insect. After all, one must be on guard against others. In case someone used the poisonous insect on her or someone she knew, she would at least have a way to deal with it.

Professor Tian picked up a small copper pot that Su Tang brought out, opened the lid and pulled out two black meatballs from it.

"You made this last night?"

"Well, guess what these two pills are." Professor Tian handed the black pills in his hand to Su Tang.

Su Tang put it under her nose and smelled it. An indescribable strange smell rushed into her nose, and she sneezed because of the strange smell.

Rubbing her nose, Su Tang shook her head. Most of the medicines that Professor Tian was promoting were beyond her understanding with her medical knowledge from her previous life. "I don't know."

"Hehehe, this is called a Qi Refining Pill. It is said that if you take one, your fatigue will be eliminated and your body will be full of strength again without feeling tired."

"It's so magical, isn't there any side effect?" Su Tang smelled it again, hmm, it seems to have a refreshing effect.

But maybe it has the same effect as those ventilation drugs.

"I'll take one and try." Professor Tian said, and without waiting for Su Tang to stop him, he grabbed a pill and put it into his mouth and swallowed it.

"Wait..." It's too late.

Su Tang looked at the person in front of her, planning to take Professor Tian back to the space to wash his stomach if anything was wrong.

"Oh, this medicine really has this effect. Now I want to go out and run a few laps."

Su sugar......

"Besides this, do you feel any other discomfort? If you feel uncomfortable, I will take you back to wash your stomach."

"No, no." Professor Tian waved his hand quickly when he heard that.

"This is indeed the same effect as described in the prescription. I never understood the dosage of the medicine before, so I never figured it out. Why don't you try one?"

"I won't use it for now, but I'll take this pill back for a pharmacological analysis." Su Tang meant using modern equipment to check the composition of the drug.

"Take it, I'll make a few more later."

"By the way, do you have any more books about poisonous insects? I'd really like to take a look at them. And these words, can you understand them?"

"Yes, when I came here, I could somehow understand this kind of writing and read it immediately."

"When you have time, please teach me these words." Su Tang pointed to the words at the bottom of the book about the insect.

"Okay, but I have to wait until I make a few more pills of this medicine. This medicine is indeed effective." Professor Tian said excitedly.

Su Tang did not disturb Professor Tian again. Professor Tian did not sleep for another night. When Su Tang came to see Professor Tian in the early morning, there were indeed more than a dozen black pills in the copper pot in his car.

"Well, I can't do it anymore. I'd better take a nap." Professor Tian yawned and fell on the bedding in the car.

Su Tang shook her head, brought the coachman out of the space, and then she returned to her carriage.

"Do you want to send some snacks to Mr. Tian as well?" Chunmei asked when she saw Su Tang coming over. They planned to have some snacks in the car this morning.

The inn was full, but they didn't even provide food for those who were not staying in the inn.

Fortunately, the inn was able to provide them with water. After all, they just had to draw water from the inn's well.

Su Tang waved her hand, "No, he's asleep again."

Chunmei opened her mouth and finally laughed softly again.

The carriage traveled on this shaky journey for half a month.

On the way, Su Tang, Chunmei and others learned some simple southern Xinjiang characters from Professor Tian.

Professor Tian said that people there can't speak Dayong Han dialect very well, so it would be better to speak some simple Southern Xinjiang dialect when you arrive in Southern Xinjiang.

Hearing this, Chunmei and the others also studied very seriously.

A few days later, the carriage finally entered the southern Xinjiang region.

There were more and more people wearing southern Xinjiang costumes on the road.

When Su Tang entered the first southern Xinjiang town, Professor Hetian went to the clothing shop in the town and bought several sets of southern Xinjiang clothing.

The Southern Xinjiang clothing she bought includes both men's and women's styles. It always helps to have more.

Fortunately, silver is universally accepted in Dayong and Southern Xinjiang.

Su Tang had a lot of cash and gold in her space, so she didn't have to worry about not being able to pay.

Su Tang took her clothes and went back to the inn first. When in Rome, do as the Romans do. She didn't want to attract too much attention.

The group quickly changed into the clothes and attire of people from southern Xinjiang.

"Hey, you guys still don't look like them. Do you have anything that can make your faces darker?" Professor Tian said to Su Tang, Chunmei and others.

"Why do you have to paint your face black?" Xia Mei asked puzzled.

“Haven’t you noticed that people in southern Xinjiang have darker skin? You guys in Dayong are already whiter than the women in ordinary families. When you stand together with the people in southern Xinjiang, you are more than one degree whiter.” Professor Tian said, looking at the women dressed as men in front of him.

It seems that Su Tang's skin is the whitest among everyone.

Professor Tian took out a small mirror and looked at his face. Well, he was indeed much darker than Su Tang and the others.

Su Tang took out some facial creams from the space. She tried to apply some on Chunmei first. Chunmei's face was indeed a little darker, and it looked a very natural dark, not abrupt at all.

Sure enough, the cosmetics from my previous life are more useful.

Su Tang remembered someone saying, what is this called, one of the four great evil spells in the world.

Afterwards, Su Tang and the others all painted their faces black, and she also gave some facial creams to Chunmei and the others.

In case it is inconvenient for them to be together in the future, it would be convenient for each of them to do their own makeup.

He told Chunmei and others how to use the facial cream, and the three of them were amazed at the changes in themselves.

"Master, what is this? So magical?"

"Facial beautifying cream, during your time in southern Xinjiang, you will use this to paint yourself darker. Remember to apply some on your neck and hands as well. Well, tell me when you're done and I'll get you new ones." Su Tang checked and found that she had quite a lot of this facial beautifying cream in her space. She didn't know who bought so much of it in the first place.

"Okay." Chunmei and the others looked at each other, and saw a dark shadow of themselves in each other's eyes.

The three of them looked at each other and suddenly started laughing.

It was the first time that they painted themselves black. In the past, when they were in Dayong, even when they were maids, they all paid attention to their image. After all, they were working for the Second Prince, and the Second Prince did not want ugly people.

"Oh, this is waterproof. As long as you don't rub it hard, it generally won't fall off." Su Tang reminded again.

Chunmei and the others nodded.

"You guys stay in the inn and pack up. I have to go out with Mr. Tian in a while." Su Tang had just been to the street and only went to the garment shop. She saw a lot of southern Xinjiang specialties and wanted to buy some to put in the space. It would be inconvenient to bring Chunmei and the others with her.

"Master, you won't take us with you?"

"Well, I'll walk around the street first. It's actually a bit inconvenient with so many people." Su Tang said seriously.

"Well, that's fine, but master, please be careful. After all, this is not Dayong." Chunmei warned worriedly.

"Okay." Su Tang agreed.

Professor Hetian went out again, with Professor Arita leading the way. Su Tang went around carefully this time.

She would go into every shop to take a look, especially the medicine shop here. Su Tang even bought a lot of medicinal materials from Professor Tian.

The people in the pharmacy were very happy to meet Su Tang, a big customer.

"Please help me deliver these things to the carriage outside." Professor Tian said to the people in the pharmacy.

They still used the carriage as a cover, put the purchased items into the carriage first, and then Su Tang put them into the space.

In this way, they can buy a lot of things in town.

The coachman originally came from space, so there was no need to hide it.

"Why is there no one selling poisonous insects here?" Su Tang asked in a low voice beside Professor Tian.

"How could that thing be sold outside? It is something that only the witch clan can possess." Professor Tian explained.

"Then how do we do some research?" Su Tang is now very curious about the poisonous insects and wants to buy a few to do research.

See how these poisonous insects actually operate.

"This is not sold in small towns like this. You have to go to their main city, but you have to talk to their witch doctor." Professor Tian replied.

"Well, then we can only wait a little longer." Su Tang said with some regret.

After strolling around the town for a day, Su Tang bought almost all the southern Xinjiang specialty items in the town.

Regardless of whether it is needed now or not, Su Tang bought it.

Professor Tian was so curious that he approached Su Tang and asked, "Are you so rich?"

"Yes." Su Tang replied as a matter of course.

She has plundered the warehouses of many people and now she is a small rich woman.

"Let's leave tomorrow. There's nothing special to buy here." Shopping made Su Tang feel particularly happy.

On the second day, Su Tang and his group set sail again early.

Since entering the southern Xinjiang region, they have claimed to be merchants traveling from Dayong to southern Xinjiang to transport goods.

This was also the identity that the Second Prince had given them.
