The Mythical Version of the Three Kingdoms: The Evil God Arrives

Chapter 282 Can Wu Shi San cure diseases?

"What else do you think this auspicious sign brought out by Qu Hanmou, a great agronomist, could be?" Yang Ji looked at Qu Qi.

"..."

Li Ru, Guo Jia, Jia Xu and others paused what they were doing, put down their bowls and chopsticks, swallowed the food in their mouths, and their expressions changed from relaxed and happy to solemn.

Of course they knew what Cookie was researching, but they all believed that Cookie's research would not make much progress in the short term.

How come you can make cookies in such a short time when so many farming bosses in history have failed to accomplish this feat?

"Don't listen to his nonsense." Cookie also put down his bowl and chopsticks and quickly refuted the rumor. This kind of thing cannot be said casually.

"Although there has been some progress in the research of improved varieties, it can't really be called a good omen at the moment." Cookie shook his head.

Although he was confident that he could call the good seeds he cultivated auspicious, they were not the ones that had just been cultivated and produced three and a half stones per mu, but the seeds that would produce five or even six stones per mu in the future that were worthy of the title of auspicious.

"In the eyes of the very few of us, a good variety that yields three and a half stones per mu is indeed not considered a good omen." Yang Ji laughed.

What Cookie calls a high-quality variety that yields three and a half stones per mu refers to the grain output produced by growing using the planting techniques of that era, and does not take into account various yield-increasing technologies.

If we take into account the fertilizers that Chen Xi asked Qu Qi to research, as well as the Lei Ji Tai built by the King of Kuaiji that Chen Xi is going to capture next, and a series of other yield-increasing technologies, the yield per mu would be no less than three and a half dan.

Seed yield is one thing, and grain yield per mu is another.

"Three and a half stones of good quality rice?!" Li Ru widened his eyes to express his shock.

No, you really figured it out?

Except for the three people at the table including Yang Ji, Cookie and Zhao Yun, everyone's eyes widened.

"Are you sure you didn't use some yield-increasing technology that only a few people can use? Even any old farmer outside can produce three and a half stone of grain from the land?" Li Ru asked immediately.

Three and a half stones of good quality. If Cookie really didn't use those black technologies to increase yield, it might not be considered a good omen in Cookie's eyes.

However, compared to the peaches and peach blossoms just now, this three-and-a-half-stone good quality peach is the real auspicious sign in the eyes of Li Ru and Jia Xu.

You have to know that the grain output of the Han Dynasty at that time was only two or three stones, and even this depended on God's will.

If the weather is bad, you will not get any harvest, not even a blade of grass or tree bark will be left.

The good variety bred by Cookie could stably produce three and a half stones, which was enough for the people to throw Cookie into the Shennong Temple.

With a stable output of three and a half stones, how many people can survive...

Li Ru lowered his eyes. If Cookie really gave him the answer he wanted, there was no doubt that he would join the people in building a temple for Cookie.

Before Cookie could speak, Yang Ji finished what he was saying: "Why do you think Zilong didn't say a word, but sat here calmly to eat."

Cookie looked at Yang Ji with some resentment. What's wrong with this guy? It was obvious that this was not what he wanted to express.

When Li Ru, Jia Xu and Guo Jia heard what Yang Ji said, they looked directly at Zhao Yun. If even Zhao Yun nodded...

Zhao Yun looked at the expectant eyes of the three people, just nodded with a chuckle, and didn't say much.

"!"

Li Ru filled Jia Xu's glass with clear wine, and then filled his own glass with wine.

Li Ru and Jia Xu clinked glasses and drank them all in one gulp. This was the joy that belonged to two people who had experienced starvation.

Among the people at this table, Qu Qi is not to be mentioned. The head of the Qu family in Yizhou, Yang Ji, has an unknown family background. Li Ru, Jia Xu and Guo Jia are all from humble backgrounds.

However, apart from Yang Ji, only Li Ru and Jia Xu had truly experienced the era of exchanging one's own children for cannibalism.

Others, no matter how poor they were, still had food to eat and were not at the point where they could not survive.

Looking at the attitudes of Li Ru and Jia Xu, Yang Ji raised his hand to stop Guo Jia from joining in, deciding to leave time for these eyewitnesses.

Guo Jia looked at Yang Ji with some confusion. Why did he stop him from joining the drinking contest?
Now it is Chen Xi's wedding, no one is stopping him from drinking, plus the good varieties of cookies have also been cultivated, it is a good time to drink.

In response to Guo Jia's doubts, Yang Ji just shook his head and did not explain it too clearly, otherwise Li Ru and Jia Xu would have taken action.

Although age is an issue that is most inappropriate to bring up in front of female relatives, old men cannot afford to be hurt, especially old men who still have dreams in their hearts.

Faced with this situation, Guo Jia raised his eyebrows, and considering the context, he quickly guessed the reason why Yang Ji stopped him.

"Okay." Guo Jia raised his wine glass to Li Ru and Jia Xu, then drank it all in one gulp.

……

The next morning, Li Ru and Jia Xu, who were hungover, showed up at the Government Affairs Hall on time and saw Chen Xi.

"Wenhe, am I getting old and having presbyopia?" Li Ru wiped his eyes and asked Jia Xu hesitantly.

Jia Xu did not answer Li Ru's question, but turned to Yang Ji who was following behind them and asked, "Zi Yu, is this the projection that Zi Chuan asked you to make?"

Since this was not the first time Chen Xi had done this, Jia Xu reasonably suspected that Chen Xi had asked Yang Ji to create a projection in order to get close to the women in his family.

Yang Ji, who was biting a steamed bun, glanced at Chen Xi, who seemed to be unable to suppress the twitching of his mouth.

"How would I know? Ever since that guy Zichuan learned the secret art of mind projection, he has abandoned me." Yang Ji made a voice that sounded very resentful.

"Hey, there has to be a limit to spreading rumors. I don't believe you can't see it." Chen Xi said speechlessly.

If I don't speak up, who knows what terrible things these guys will do.

"What if even Zi Yu can't see through the projection of your will?" Fan Qin, who followed Jian Yong in, said casually.

If possible, Fan Qin really hoped that the Chen Xi in front of him was a projection of his will. In this way, at least it could prove that Chen Xi was still very obsessed with his girl.

"Tsk, the secret technique of will projection was developed by Zi Yu, how could he not see through it?

Unless he doesn't want to." Chen Xi looked at Yang Ji with dissatisfaction in his eyes.

This guy Yang Ji actually came to tease him. The brotherhood between them seemed to have faded.

"Huh? Is this Zichuan?" Lu Su, who walked into the Government Affairs Hall, looked at Chen Xi with surprise.

"Look, even Zijing can tell that I'm not a projection, can't you see it?" Chen Xi complained to Lu Su about these guys' teasing.

"..." Lu Su's eyes scanned Chen Xi up and down. How could this guy Chen Xi say such a thing?

"You're not here to hide away, are you?" Lu Su made a reasonable guess. Suddenly, everyone looked at Chen Xi. How could they not know that Chen Xi liked Fan Jian and Chen Lan?

But, who asked Chen Xi to marry them both at once? I guess Chen Xi was also very confused about which room to go to last night.

Chen Xi didn't say anything, but just lowered his head and continued to deal with the documents already spread out on the desk.

Fan Qin, Yang Ji, Lu Su and others shrugged their shoulders and returned to their workstations to review the divided documents.

After a while, Fa Zheng, with dark circles under his eyes, also arrived and first congratulated Chen Xi.

"Congratulations, Zichuan, on your marriage." Fa Zheng stood in front of Chen Xi and said a few pleasant and auspicious words.

"Thank you." Chen Xi looked up at Fa Zheng, then raised his eyebrows and asked Fa Zheng: "By the way, Xiaozhi, have you been suffering from insomnia these past few nights?"

Fa Zheng's eye bags were quite heavy at this moment, which made Chen Xi suspect that Fa Zheng must have stayed up all night for several days.

However, Chen Xi remembered that when he saw Fa Zheng at the wedding yesterday, Fa Zheng was still a nice guy. How come he turned into a panda with dark circles under his eyes overnight?

"Insomnia?" Fa Zheng was stuck for a moment, not knowing why Chen Xi asked this question.

But this is not important. Fa Zheng shook his head and asked Chen Xi directly: "What happened to the peaches and peach blossoms yesterday?"

Everyone at the scene except Yang Ji, Guo Jia, Li Ru and Jia Xu looked at Chen Xi to see what answer he would give.

At the same time, they sighed in their hearts that Fa Zheng's question really spoke out what was in their hearts. They had thought about this question for a long time yesterday.

After hearing Fa Zheng's question, Chen Xi looked at Yang Ji with a strange expression, "Didn't they ask you?"

Chen Xi thought someone would ask Yang Ji what happened to the auspicious sign yesterday. After all, so many people saw Yang Ji and Zhao Yun leave the table yesterday.

As it turned out, except for those three cunning guys, everyone else was really honest.

Lu Su, Fa Zheng and others looked at Yang Ji in astonishment. It turned out that it was really you who did it.

Yang Ji blinked, "I remember discussing this with Feng Xiaowen and Wenru yesterday. Didn't you see it?"

At this time, Yang Ji acted very innocently, not paying any attention to the somewhat weird looks from Guo Jia, Li Ru and Jia Xu behind him.

After all, the other auspicious sign that Yang Ji threw out yesterday was really attractive to them. They were so bewitched that they had no energy to ask about the peach auspicious sign.

"You didn't ask yesterday?" Chen Xi was also a little surprised at this time. What's going on with these guys?
Didn't Li Ru, Jia Xu, and Guo Jia have a good chat with Yang Ji, Zhao Yun, and Cookie yesterday? They even drank together.

Why do I feel like these three people have been fooled by Yang Ji and the other two?
Li Ru and Jia Xu looked at Guo Jia. They both got drunk yesterday and didn't know whether Yang Ji had said it or not. They had to ask Guo Jia about this.

Chen Xi waved his hand and said, "Forget it, this matter was indeed caused by me and Zi Yu and the others.

Don't ask how they did it. Even if you have a guess, don't spread it around. Let them be suspicious on their own."

"Yesterday..." Fa Zheng wanted to ask if there were any peaches left from yesterday. If there were, give him a few more. He hadn't eaten enough yet, so he could take one back to his father.

"Okay, that's it." Lu Su ended the topic directly and interrupted Fa Zheng's words.

Seeing that the topic was coming to an end, Li Ru wanted to step forward and ask Chen Xi whether the good varieties bred by Cookie were real.

What if what Yang Ji, Cookie and Zhao Yun told him yesterday was just an illusion caused by him getting drunk?

After seeing Li Ru's actions, Jia Xu also wanted to step forward to listen to what Li Ru wanted to talk to Chen Xi about.

It was only the surprise from Fa Zheng that made them stop.

"You still have some!? Give me two!" Fa Zheng said, pointing at the peaches that Yang Ji took out.

Fa Zheng looked at the peach in Yang Ji's hand and thought of the peach he ate yesterday. A lot of saliva started to secrete from his mouth. The peach he ate yesterday was really delicious.

Yang Ji looked at Fa Zheng who had a look of longing on his face. No, the look on Fa Zheng's face was not one of longing, but of greed.

Fa Zheng is such a shameless guy. I gave him one yesterday, and now he comes again and grabs it from him alone. Is that really okay?

Perhaps Fa Zheng's expression was too real and deceived everyone except Yang Ji.

So Chen Xi said to Yang Ji: "Zi Yu, you still have a lot of peaches, share them with everyone."

"Ah?" Yang Ji was stunned. Oh my god, who said not to throw all the peaches away as a good omen? Now he is stabbing me in the back?

"..." Yang Ji's confusion reminded Chen Xi that the peaches that Yang Ji took out now seemed to be the ones that he asked Yang Ji and Zhao Yun to intercept.

"Let's break up..." Chen Xi sighed. He definitely couldn't keep Taozi any longer. Didn't he see the other people's staring eyes?

"Well, alright." Since Chen Xi had nodded, Yang Ji didn't hesitate any longer. It was Chen Xi's stuff anyway.

【By the way, why did I take out my own peach just now? 】

After dividing the peaches, Yang Ji recalled his behavior just now and felt that he seemed to have been cheated.

Yang Ji turned his gaze towards Guo Jia, the guy who had just whispered in his ear about how delicious yesterday's peaches were, and asked him if he had any more.

After Yang Ji nodded, Guo Jia said that he just swallowed the peaches yesterday and didn't even taste what winter peaches tasted like.

Then Yang Ji was tricked into taking out the peaches and sharing them with Guo Jia, and then he was discovered by Fa Zheng.

"Zichuan, I have something else I want to tell you." Yang Ji shouted to Chen Xi.

"!" Guo Jia seemed to have noticed something and quickly looked at Yang Ji.

【It’s going to happen! 】

"What's the matter?" Chen Xi asked curiously. It was rare for Yang Ji to come to him for something, and usually he was the one who went to find Yang Ji.

"Look, should we organize them to go to Doctor Hua and Doctor Zhang for a physical check-up?" Yang Ji said with a smile.

As Yang Ji remembered, almost all of these guys had the habit of taking drugs, especially Guo Jia.

"Ah?" Chen Xi was stunned. What was going on?

"I have some Wu Shi San here. Taking a packet will make you feel great and immune to all diseases." Guo Jia took out his elixir immediately.

"Besides, I just ate the fairy peach yesterday, how could I not know whether I am healthy or not?"

Guo Jia knew that he could not follow Yang Ji's line of thought, otherwise he would be in trouble.
