Chapter 42 "Botanical Garden" 1-Day Tour

Li Kongxue’s garden is full of strange plants, some trees are covered with white fluff like snowflakes, some green grass grows as tall as a person, and some shrubs bear fruits like human faces and masks. This garden might be scared to death.

Liu Bang even saw a tall climbing tree in the corner of the garden.

As soon as the carriage arrived at Li Kongxue's mansion, before everyone could rest for a while, they were dragged by Li Kongxue to visit the garden.

He proudly introduced: "The grass and trees in my garden are all carefully collected by me from various places. The living conditions are different, so I also spent a lot of painstaking efforts in arranging them in the garden. Let them thrive together."

Liu Bang said: "It's amazing, it's amazing."

She felt as if she had signed up for a tour group for the elderly, and the destination of her visit was some weird botanical garden. Although the place was a bit weird, she still enjoyed the visit.

Several translucent flowers were blown crookedly in front of her by the wind. Liu Bang reached out and touched the petals. It seemed that there was a lot of clear water in them, which made her feel very interesting.

Not far away, a few maidservants walked over in a hurry.They whispered a few words to Li Kongxue, then hurried away again.

"What's wrong?" Liu Si put down the petals, clapped his hands and asked.

Li Kongxue smiled with a big face: "It's okay. I asked them to decorate the place, and it will be convenient for you to visit later."

"Where?"

"It's the place where the raw materials for drinking water in restaurants are planted."

Li Kongxue smiled smugly, "Actually, the planting site should be kept secret, and no one can see it, but since you are an old man, I want to take you to see it."

After he finished speaking, he muttered a bunch of words again, but Liu Si didn't catch what it was at all.

There is a row of high wooden walls outside the place where the raw materials are grown, completely covering the scene inside. Liu Si and his party walk to the side, and they can't see the inside at all. It seems that Li Kongxue really pays attention to secrecy.

A few maids opened a small door, spread a clean carpet on the floor, and lowered their heads to move to the sides.

Li Kongxue smiled and said, "Please, everything is arranged inside, so your shoes won't be dirty."

A thin layer of cloth has also been laid on the ridge of the field, and the flat and wide mud fields on both sides are full of various crops, which is dazzling at a glance.

These crops look no different from those grown in ordinary fields. The irrigation water underneath is faintly purple, and when you step hard on the ridge of the field, you will shake out ripples with strange colors.

I thought there was something special about the crops, but they looked ordinary.

Looking at a low fruit tree, Liu Bang couldn't help curling his lips: "Is this the Nanguo of 'Nanjuice' sold in the restaurant? How is it different from the Nanguo outside?"

Li Kongxue "hehe" smiled strangely: "The difference is huge. Just one of my Nanguo can guarantee that people will not be hungry for a day. Can ordinary fruits do this? They are all cultivated by special methods. It's big."

He pointed to the strange purple water in the field.

Liu Bang asked curiously: "The doorway is this purple water? What kind of special fertilizer is it mixed with?"

"Yes, the reason why these crops are special is in the irrigation water."

Li Kongxue said mysteriously, "To tell you the truth, I bought the secret recipe of this water from an expert outside. I didn't expect it to be very effective. It's just the specific formula of the water. The expert kept it a secret and didn't tell me. , I’m actually pretty clueless.”

He sneered, his whole body was shaking with fat.

Liu Si glanced at him suspiciously: "Nephew Li, do you want me to take a look for you, what is this water made of?"

Li Kongxue nodded vigorously: "Yes."

I knew that Li Kongxue must have asked for something so readily to take her to visit the commercial secret place. Sure enough, she was going to test her now, which posed a problem for her.

Liu Bang sneered and waved his hands, racking his brains to think of the uncommon words he knew, and decided to make up two answers for Li Kongxue: "Do you still have that water in stock? Take me to have a look."

Li Kongxue said: "Yes. The expert dug a small pool in my mansion to store this purple water."

The pool was dug at the edge of the field, surrounded by a solid courtyard wall, and three large locks were hung on the courtyard gate.

The three servants unlocked the door respectively, and Liu Si pushed the door open to enter, only to see that the courtyard was covered with scarlet short grass, the water in the pool was not the purple as imagined, but dark green in the center, but the water rippled outwards and produced light red foam .

Liu Si couldn't see how deep the pond was.

Several old men and women made surprised sounds at the gate of the courtyard, and Li Kongxue looked a little embarrassed: "Is the pool water a little scary? That's why I don't come here much."

Although the sun was covering the roof, the edge of the pool was extremely shady and cool. The pool water was deep and turbid, which looked very strange. After all, the pool water was dug directly into Li Kongxue's house, so it was no wonder that he was not at ease.

Liu Bang squatted down, squinted his eyes and looked into the pool water. The sun was shaking, and there were shadows at the bottom of the pool, as if someone was floating.

"Why does it look so scary?"

She asked Li Kongxue: "Is this pool also dug by the expert himself? Do you know how deep it is?"

Li Kongxue immediately said: "He dug it. I haven't measured how deep it is. He cleared the site while digging, and the soil he dug was taken away."

Liu Si raised his eyebrows: "Then you probably didn't grow these strange red grasses?"

Li Kongxue hurriedly said: "Of course not, it grows by itself. The expert will come to my house to replenish the pond water every month, and every time he locks the courtyard door to keep people away. After the pond water is replenished, the grass will grow rapidly Jump high."

Hearing the words, the old men and women present looked at each other in blank dismay. Gong Xieyue seized the opportunity and snorted heavily. Although he didn't speak, the contemptuous expression on his face had already expressed his thoughts——

Obviously, he didn't appreciate Li Kongxue's bold use of strange pool water of unknown origin to irrigate crops.

Liu Bang tapped the pool water with his finger, put it to his nose and smelled it, and a sickly sweet smell rushed up immediately.

Yan opened his mouth: "It smells like human blood."

"There's blood? So there's really something hidden under the pool, right? The expert here is really interesting, either a ostentatious 'noble' like me, or an evil liar."

Liu Bang muttered, stood up suddenly, looked at Li Kongxue strangely and smiled: "Actually, I admire you very much. You dare to keep this kind of pool at home, and you only show fear now."

Li Kongxue shrank her neck and said with a sneer: "Isn't this... is the pool water really useful? Could it be that there is really something wrong with this pool?"

Liu Bang smiled and said: "The problem is big. Fortunately, you met me and can help you find out the problem. But first, I hope you can prepare a change of clothes for me. The quality of the clothes must be at least the same as the one I am wearing now. body as well."

Yu He can only have one unborn expert.Liu Bang decided to rely on this pool to maintain his reputation.

She tightened her belt, pulled out her dagger, and took off her robe. Without waiting for anyone to react, she took a deep breath and jumped into the pool!

"Plop"

The sticky pool water was icy cold, Liu Si stretched out his hand and waved away the string of light red foam that he had stimulated, the sunlight could not see through the pool, but the contours of several people's bodies were vaguely outlined.

She squinted her eyes and swam down as hard as she could. She saw several people lying on top of each other at the bottom of the pool. Their skin had been soaked to the point of wrinkling, and some of them had even been corroded and torn by the water. The smell of blood came from here.

The water in the pool was muddy, and their outlines could only be seen vaguely.

Liu Bang simply swam to the bottom of the pool, and found that the heads of these people seemed to have winding lines drawn, their chests heaved and fell, and they seemed to be still alive.

She touched the hand of the person at the bottom:

【Name】: Zhu Xindan

【Age】: 26
[Status]: Missing soul
"This name, it can't be Ah Zhu's elder brother who was cheated and disappeared. He was arrested here as nourishment? It's too scary!"

Liu Bang let out a breath, and a string of dense foam swung out in the pool water, floating upward rapidly.

"How about it?"

Seeing Liu Bang finally surfaced, Li Kongxue breathed a sigh of relief, but felt inexplicably uneasy in his heart, and his legs began to tremble.

Liu Bang patted the surface of the water, and frowned in disgust: "It's not good. Remember what I said to you in the carriage before, that expert seems to be a liar, and the people below are all deceived by him, my Good nephew, you have caused an accident, quickly drain the pool of water, and take him out to rescue him!"
