Zhou Bo shook his head helplessly, it seems that he really chose the wrong place to sell herbs. At this time, after he walked into the corner of a street, he quickly unfolded his body, and in a flash, his figure appeared two streets away, and easily threw the two guys away.
After getting rid of the guy, Zhou Bo slowly wandered around the city, at this time the sun had completely risen, and there were more citizens in the city.
Not long after, after Zhou Bo squeezed through a bunch of people, he suddenly saw a huge shop on the corner of the street in front of him, but the strange thing was that there were not many people around the store, which seemed out of place with the noisy crowd around him.
When he got closer, Zhou Bo saw clearly, it turned out that this was actually Anfu Pharmacy, he couldn't help but be a little surprised, half a year ago this was the largest pharmacy in Dragon Pattern City! There was an endless stream of people coming in and out, and his Zhu Yan Lingguo was also sold to it, but this was only half a year later, how could it change so much! With curiosity, Zhou Bo slowly walked into Anfu Pharmacy.
As soon as he entered, Zhou Bo found that this place was really different from the past, there was no strong smell of herbs in the pharmacy, and there was no Xiao Er to greet you, and he was the only one by the deserted counter.
Just as he was puzzled, Zhou Bo found that his shoulder was suddenly tapped.
"Little brother, I haven't seen you for half a year. Zhou Bo turned around and saw that a slightly fat middle-aged man was standing behind him, and when he saw Zhou Bo turn around, the middle-aged man smiled and continued: "Hehe, last time your Zhu Yan Spirit Fruit gave me enough face!"
It turned out that this middle-aged man who was not tall and had some fat was the owner of Anfu Pharmacy, Anfu, at this time he was dressed in a gray brocade dress, some fat stomachs were slightly bulging outward, and his round face gave people a very kind feeling because of a smile, but when Zhou Bo saw Anfu's eyes, he found that they were full of bloodshots, and his face was also unusually pale, not at all like before, it seems that something must have happened during this time.
"Boss An, why is there no one here?"
"Little brother, don't you know?" Seeing Zhou Bo shake his head, An Fu let out a long sigh, and then said slowly: "In the past few decades, my pharmacy has always been the largest pharmacy in the entire Dragon Pattern City because of its good reputation. ”
After a pause, An Fu's face suddenly changed, and he said: "But since the outbreak of the plague half a year ago, all the pills dispensed by my pharmacy have been useless, just when all of us were desperate, Zhao Tongmu came to Dragon Pattern City, and relied on the refined pills to cure the plague in an instant." That's not all, he also opened a pharmacy in the north of the city, arranged all the pharmacists, and charged herbs at twice the market price. Zhou Bo knew all this, but he didn't expect to have such a big impact on Anfu Pharmacy.
At this time, An Fu continued: "In this way, basically all the pharmacists have been recruited by him, because we have no supply of herbs, even if there are many people who want to buy medicine, we have no way at all, it is estimated that in a few days, my pharmacy will be closed." After An Fu finished speaking, the tears that could not be stopped in his bloodshot eyes seemed to have hit him quite hard during this time!
An Fu looked like this, Zhou Bo didn't know what to say, looked left and right, he suddenly found that on the counter, there were some scattered herbs on display, curious, Zhou Bo walked over slowly, wanted to see what was left in this pharmacy, looked at it for a while, and found that they were all low-grade herbs, and they had dried up, it seemed that no one had come to sell herbs here for a long time.
And at this time, Zhou Bo suddenly saw that in a corner, there were three pieces of black wood in the shape of bamboo, picked it up and looked at it, only to find that this was a second-level herbal black bamboo wood, and when he was about to put it down, Qinglong suddenly shouted in Zhou Bo: "Don't throw it, this is a baby!"
"Little brother, this is not black bamboo!" At this time, An Fu had already walked to Zhou Bo's side, saw Zhou Bo holding the black wood in his hand, and explained: "These were picked from the Dragon Pattern Valley a month ago, at first I thought it was black bamboo, but when I dispensed the medicine, I found that it was not at all, the spiritual power in it was very scarce, and it could not be used for medicine at all." At this time, Anfu's mood was much better, and he explained to Zhou Bo.
"Senior, what kind of treasure is this?" Zhou Bo was even more puzzled after hearing An Fu's words, and quickly asked Qinglong in his heart.
"Haha, the owner of this pharmacy is really illiterate, although this is not black bamboo, but it is an authentic treasure!" Qinglong's voice was full of smiles, but seeing Zhou Bo's anxious expression, he explained: "This herb shaped like black bamboo wood is actually a plant called Qi Array Wood, and its main function is to store the formation." ”
"Storage Formation?!Are you saying there is a formation here?" Zhou Bo was startled, and instantly remembered the Nine Consecutive Bagua Formation and Fu Zuo's Formation, could it be that this is also that kind of formation?
"If there is spiritual power in this, it is a formation, and if there is no spiritual power, it is an empty Qi Formation Wood, but he just said that there is little spiritual power in it, and it is estimated that there is really a formation, so you better put it away quickly!"
"Then what kind of formation is this?" Zhou Bo was more concerned about this issue, and hurriedly asked Qinglong.
"I'll see this when I go back! I need to inject my consciousness to perceive it. After Qinglong said this, Zhou Bo began to think about how to buy these three pieces of Qizhen wood, too expensive and too cheap for fear that the boss would be suspicious, just when Zhou Bo was entangled in this problem, An Fu was the first to speak.
"Little brother, do you like these things? If you like them, take them! You can take whatever you want here, and I won't need them in the future anyway." An Fu saw that Zhou Bo had been holding this thing in a daze, and thought that he was interested in this fake black bamboo wood.
Zhou Bo was excited when he heard this, but he didn't show it too obviously, and quickly selected a few low-grade herbs from the counter, and put them in his pocket with the three pieces of Qi Array Wood, and then Zhou Bo turned to An Fu and said, "Boss An, I won't take your things for nothing, I wonder if you are interested in making a deal with me?"
"Hehe, little brother won't tell you, there are only a few pharmacists who are more familiar with me in the small shop who sell me herbs, but they are only a drop in the bucket, and they are not enough to maintain the normal operation of my pharmacy!" As soon as An Fu heard that Zhou Bo wanted to do business with him, he knew that he wanted to sell herbs to himself, but considering his true situation, An Fu also told the truth.
Zhou Bo smiled slightly after hearing this, and just said lightly: "Then I don't know if ten Zhu Yan spirit fruits will work?"
An Fu was stunned for a moment, then his pupils shrank suddenly, and his face was full of disbelief and stared at Zhou Bo, until he stared at it for about five seconds, and suddenly, An Fu grabbed Zhou Bo's arm and shouted, "You really still have Zhu Yan Lingguo?"
Not talking nonsense, Zhou Bo turned his back to Anfu, and quickly took out ten Zhu Yan Spirit Fruits from the Ice Condensation Ring and handed them to Anfu.
The red fruit in Zhou Bo's hand was like a baby's fist, and the ten plants clustered together were like a rising sun, and the white mist emitted from the fruit was like water vapor, which was extremely dazzling. As soon as Zhu Yan's spirit fruit appeared, it was like igniting red gas in an instant, raising the temperature around him a lot.
Seeing that An Fu just stood there looking at himself, and didn't reach out to pick up the Zhu Yan Spirit Fruit, Zhou Bo had no choice but to say helplessly: "Boss An, you might as well test the spiritual power of this Zhu Yan Spirit Fruit yourself!"
After An Fu heard this, he was shocked as if he had just woken up from a big dream, so he took the Zhu Yan spirit fruit handed by Zhou Bo very carefully, quickly walked to the counter, took out a square black spirit stone from it, and blew the dust on it hard, and then put a Zhu Yan spirit fruit on it, and then stared at it.
As if tacitly, neither of the two spoke, just staring at the black section stone, waiting for the result to appear, the dull and strange atmosphere made Zhou Bo a little breathless, and at this moment, the section stone suddenly lit up.
"Level 6!!" When An Fu saw seven white lights lit up on the spirit measuring stone, he exclaimed, and quickly picked up the herb and stroked it carefully, his expression was serious, as if he was caressing a newborn baby. You must know that the more advanced the herb, the more difficult it is to improve the spiritual power, and this Zhu Yan Spirit Fruit can actually reach the seventh level of spiritual power, which can really be regarded as the best.
Zhou Bo was quite satisfied with the seventh-level spiritual power contained in Zhu Yan's spirit fruit, after all, this Zhu Yan spirit fruit was grown in Ziyue Lake, absorbing very pure spiritual power, and also had the care of Tong Yao, after hundreds of years of carefree growth, it was naturally extraordinary.
"Why are you helping me?" After a short period of surprise, An Fu slowly turned his head to look at Zhou Bo and asked with a puzzled expression.
Zhou Bo smiled, walked slowly to the counter, took out the black bamboo wood, and said to An Fu: "I just want to know, where did you pick this black bamboo wood." ”
"Do you want to ......" An Fu suddenly pointed his finger at Zhou Bo when he heard this, and scolded angrily: "I won't tell you, I will never touch fake medicine in my life." ”
Zhou Bo smiled dumbly after hearing this, it seems that this Anfu is really very righteous! It's just that his slightly chubby cheeks are matched with an angry face, but it is a little funny, and he can't hold back his laughter, Zhou Bo said: "Boss An is too worried, I'm just a little interested in this black bamboo wood, and I don't mean to pick it, besides, do I need to sell fake medicine?" haha......" Zhou Bo said this, shaking the Zhu Yan Spirit Fruit in his hand in front of Anfu's eyes, and finally couldn't help laughing.
"I'm not afraid of your jokes, little brother, I'm just in case!" An Fu carefully handed back the Zhu Yan Spirit Fruit in his hand to Zhou Bo at this time, and then recalled and said: "A month ago, because the pharmacy basically had no business, I carried the medicine basket on my back and wanted to try my luck in the Dragon Pattern Forest, but I went around the Dragon Pattern Forest for a long time, but I only picked a few low-grade herbs, and then I thought of the Dragon Pattern Valley and wanted to see what treasures there were. ”
Zhou Bo was shocked when he heard this, you must know that this Dragon Pattern Valley is the only exit to the Ancient Forest! Could it be that these three Qi Array Trees are related to the Ancient Forest? Or is it related to the man in black? Thinking of this, Zhou Bo's face couldn't help but be a little solemn, and he listened carefully to An Fu's words.
"When I arrived at the Dragon Pattern Valley, I walked down the path on the edge of the cliff, but not long after walking, I found this black bamboo wood placed in the corner of the cave in a cave, I searched around, and finally found the black bamboo wood in the two caves below, I was so happy that I hurriedly put it in the medicine basket, I thought it was a medicine priest who accidentally dropped it, but after coming back, I realized that these were not black bamboo trees at all. After An Fu finished speaking, he looked at Zhou Bo, waiting for his reaction.
"Gone?" Zhou Bo asked in surprise, after seeing An Fu nodding vigorously, Zhou Bo actually felt a little lost in his heart, he thought that he would meet the man in black or something, but he didn't expect that this was over, this process was inevitably too dull!
"I'm sure that the Qi Array Wood contains the formation. Qinglong suddenly shouted loudly, the old man's voice was quite excited, as if he had made some big discovery, he controlled his emotions for a moment, and then continued: "That was not accidentally dropped by the medicine priest at all, but someone deliberately put it there." ”
"Deliberately placed there?"
"Yes, someone must have wanted to arrange a formation outside the Dragon Pattern Valley, so they placed the Qi Array Wood in that cave, but they never imagined that it would be taken away by others, once the Qi Array Wood changed its position, it would lose its spiritual power, and if they wanted to use it, they would need to re-inject their spiritual power. Qinglong stopped talking after saying this, probably thinking about the reason.
"You can take these Zhu Yan spirit fruits! I won't ask you for the money first, and I'll give it to me when you earn it!" Zhou Bo said and handed the ten Zhu Yan spirit fruits in his hand to An Fu, watching his trembling hands slowly take the herbs, Zhou Bo continued: "But I have one request, that is, don't say that I gave it to you." ”
"Can't you trust my Anfu Pharmacy? Confidentiality and integrity are the foundation of doing business, so you can rest assured about this. Anfu assured Zhou Bo loudly, and just now when he heard that this herb was actually given to him on credit, he was already speechless with excitement, and now Zhou Bo is afraid that Anfu will agree to any request!
Looking at Zhou Bo's delicate and immature face, An Fu had an expression that wanted to speak and stopped, and finally asked in a low voice: "Little brother, don't blame me for being troublesome, it's just that I really can't figure out why you want to help me so much." ”
"You just don't think I'm used to looking at Ningxin Medicine Workshop!" Zhou Bo said casually, as if he didn't want to discuss too much on this issue, and said to An Fu: "Boss An, I still have some things, so I won't bother." After speaking, he wanted to turn around, but was grabbed by An Fu.
"Little brother, I don't know your name yet?"
"My name is Zhou Bo. ”
"Zhou Bo, Zhou Bo..."An Fu lowered his head as if thinking about something, and suddenly he shouted loudly: "Who are you that pharmacist?"
Zhou Bo had already walked to the door, and his whole body was shocked after hearing An Fu shout out Zhou Ju, but he just turned his head to look at An Fu, then turned around and walked out of the pharmacy quickly.
Seeing Zhou Bo's thin figure gradually disappear into the crowd outside the door, An Fu sighed and said to himself: "Time flies so fast! Zhou Ju, I really didn't expect your grandchildren to grow up so big, but they are really young and promising!"
Just now, when he heard Anfu shouting his grandfather's name, Zhou Bo's whole body was shocked uncontrollably, he hadn't heard these two words shouted from someone else's mouth for a long time, remembering that in the past, his grandfather took him to the Dragon Forest to collect medicine and then went to Anfu Pharmacy to sell medicine, Zhou Bo clearly remembered everything in the past, and a large part of the reason why he was willing to help Anfu was that memory in his childhood.
