Hongsheng'er looked at the water stains, and couldn't believe that there was such a terrible monster in it.

Wen Xin saw Hongsheng'er looking at her suspiciously, and said: "Just now I was studying how to use this thing, I thought that since the Persian merchant said that this crystal cylinder mirror can see things, so I will use it to see things, I accidentally found that when I get close, I seem to be able to see some small things vaguely, but my hand is shaking too much to see clearly." So I tied the crystal cylinder mirror to the pen holder, and there was a drop of water stain on the base of the pen holder that I had dropped after washing the pen, so I twisted the screw on the crystal cylinder and found that I could see things more and more clearly, until I could see the monster in the water clearly. It scared the hell out of me......"

Hongsheng'er thought about it, wiped off the water stains on the pedestal with her hands, and dripped a drop on it again, and then according to the method taught by Wenxin, she turned the nut on the cylinder until she saw the position clearly. Her face turned white with fright, but she was even more excited.

Hongsheng'er didn't dare to look at it anymore, and held her chest towards Wen Xin: "This thing can see monsters in the water, it's weird and scary, is it specially used to scare others?" I don't believe there are these things in the water." ”

"The Buddha views a bowl of water, 84,000 insects. I'm just afraid of this. ”

"But it's not a worm, it's a monster!"

"I haven't seen it before, I think it's weird, and it's not weird if I'm used to seeing it. ”

When the afterglow was gone, Yang Xianmao returned to the pharmacy.

Wen Xin and Hong Xiang'er glanced at each other, and were about to tell Yang Xianmao what they had discovered, but the Zhang family had already beckoned Yang Xianmao to sit down and eat quickly, because the meals had already been prepared. The two men stopped talking, fearing that he would be disgusted and not want to eat after reading it. I thought I'd wait until I was done with the meal before telling him.

After the meal, Wen Xin told Yang Xianmao about her discovery.

When Yang Xianmao heard this, Wen Xin actually found the purpose of the crystal cylinder mirror, and couldn't help but be surprised and delighted, and quickly took the lantern into Wen Xin's room, put the lantern on the table, and then according to what Wen Xin said, he lit a drop of water in front of the camera, and then leaned over to Beacon Hill to look down.

Wen Xin and Hong Xiang'er looked at him nervously from the side, and Hongsheng'er was already careful for fear that he would fall backwards like herself in fright, so they were ready to hold him up when he screamed. Unexpectedly, Yang Xianmao looked at them for a long time, but looked up at them suspiciously and said, "There is nothing, there is black rumbling inside." ”

Wen Xin and Hong Shang'er glanced at each other, and Hong Shang'er walked over to look at it and said, "No, I saw all kinds of monsters swimming in the water before, and I was scared to death, how could I not see it?"

Hongsheng'er also leaned up to take a look, and said, "Is the light too dim?"

So the two of them hurriedly leaned the lantern against the cylinder, and the light brightened a little, and they leaned up to see it again, and now they could finally see something dimly, but they still couldn't see it really, and they didn't know what it was.

Wen Xin shook her head and said to Yang Xianmao: "It's too dark, wait until the sun rises tomorrow and you can see it." ”

Because of Hongsheng'er's words, Yang Xianmao didn't sleep well this night, and his head was always thinking about what monsters were in the water, and how could this crystal cylinder mirror see the monsters in the water.

The next morning, when Yang Xianmao came back from exercising from Xiaoshangang, before dawn, he sat at his desk and stared at the crystal cylinder mirror tied to the pen holder. He had already transferred this thing from Wen Xin's boudoir to his own room last night.

Hongsheng'er also sat at the table with him, waiting for dawn.

Finally, the sky brightened up little by little, and Yang Xianmao probed from time to time to observe the things in the cylinder, and as the light strengthened little by little, the things in the water became clearer and clearer under the cylinder tied to Beacon Mountain.

When the sky was bright, he finally saw clearly all kinds of strangely shaped little insects, or small monsters, swimming in the water.

Yang Xianmao was not afraid, but he observed with interest for a long time, and then said: "This thing is really fun, you can see the insects in the water, it seems that what the Buddha said is right, there are really 48,000 insects in the water." Isn't this what the Buddha's followers came up with to prove that what the Buddha said is true?"

Sister Wen Xin said the same thing. ”

"Well, I've seen it, put it away. ”

This proves that the crystal cylinder mirror that the Buddha said is the truth and the "Classic of Mountains and Seas" that cannot be seen were put into the brocade box and shelved together, but the crystal convex mirror helped Yang Xianmao a lot.

Because in the past few days, Yang Xianmao has encountered several patients who need surgery in the ophthalmology department, mainly beggars from the beggar gang, and Yang Xianmao relied on the crystal convex mirror to help them successfully complete the operation.

A few other people from the city came to the Yang Family Medical Center to see a doctor, and when Yang Xianmao proposed to use a knife to open their eyes, he was so frightened that he waved his hand again and again, and resolutely disagreed. After all, now they just can't see clearly, but they can still roughly see the bright or rough outline, if they go blind with a knife, what can they do?

………………

Next door to the Rejuvenation Hall is a jewelry store. The shopkeeper happened to be surnamed Zhu, when the Huichun Hall couldn't even pay the rent, and when the arrears of medicinal materials were poor, the shopkeeper Zhu didn't look down on them, so he never interacted with them, even if the two of them stood at the door together, they wouldn't squint at Yang Mingde and his family.

Of course, the Yang family also has backbone, since the other party is snobbish, they don't associate with each other, so although distant relatives are not as good as close neighbors, they have not had any contact for many years, and they have basically never even met and greeted each other politely.

Although the Yang family's business has improved in the past few days, this improvement is still not worth mentioning in the eyes of the jewelry store Zhu Shopkeeper, and he never thought of associating with a Langzhong, and their family went to the Han Medical Center to buy medicine when they were sick.

The Zhu family's jewelry business is getting bigger and bigger, and the Zhu shopkeeper is beginning to look for ways to expand the storefront. On the other side of him was a rouge gouache shop, and the business was also doing very well, and it was impossible to give up the shop to him, so he hit the idea to the Rejuvenation Hall.

That night, the door of the store was closed, and the shopkeeper Zhu and his wife combined.

Shopkeeper Zhu said to his wife: "Tonight, you go to the landlord Grandma Sun to discuss, let her take back the house of Yang Langzhong in Huichun Hall and rent it to us, and ask Yang Langzhong to find another place to open a pharmacy." ”

Mrs. Zhu hesitated a little and said, "I'm afraid this is not a big deal, right? ”

"So what? our jewelry store is much better than him, and he doesn't make as much money as I make in a day even if he sells medicine for a month. You usually have a good relationship with Grandma Sun, you go and talk to Grandma Sun, tell her to return the house ruthlessly, and we can add a little rent to her. - I know that this mother-in-law is a good old man, and she doesn't want to do such a thing, so you have to tell her in private, and bring her a gift. ”

Mrs. Zhu hesitated for a moment, lowered her voice and said, "I heard that the Yang family has a good relationship with the government, and the county lieutenant Zhong of the county government takes good care of them. ”

Shopkeeper Zhu pursed his lips and said, "So what? Now that he has offended the new prefect, the apprentices of the medical bureau have prevented the patients from coming to their homes to seek medical advice, and they have not seen them have any business for a month! They can't go on and are going to close down." Besides, the prefect and the general judge are the old customers of our jewelry store, and we don't give him a little bit during the New Year's holidays, and the new prefect gave us a large sum of silver last time. When Governor Wei saw me, he would also nod and smile, so don't be afraid. ”

The last time Assistant Teacher Yao knelt down to worship the Yang family's Huichun Hall, because it was too early, the jewelry store had not yet opened, so the shopkeeper Zhu and his wife didn't know, and when the eunuch Huang Gonggong and Hu Tongju and others visited the Huichun Hall, they were all wearing civilian clothes, so the Zhu shopkeeper and his wife didn't know the inside story, and thought that the Yang family was still among the poor poor men who were suppressed by the prefect.

Mrs. Zhu nodded frequently and said, "Okay, then I'll go and tell Grandma Sun that she has always liked the bracelet in our store, do you want to send it to her?"

Shopkeeper Zhu glared at him and said, "Are you crazy? That jade bracelet sells for ten taels of silver." ”

"But didn't we only spend one or two or six dollars on the purchase price?"

Shopkeeper Zhu poked his short and thick fingers directly into his mother's head: "You are a mud that can't support the wall, you think so when you do business, and you make fart money." ”

Mrs. Zhu rubbed her head and said, "But I can't go empty-handed." ”

Shopkeeper Zhu snorted, rolled his eyes a few times, took a box from the shelf and opened it, took out a bunch of jade grapes from it, picked it up and shook it, making a crisp sound of ding dong, and said: "This is made of jade scraps, and the purchase price is only three dollars of silver.

Mrs. Zhu hurriedly agreed, put the jade grapes back in the small box, wrapped them in a sea blue cloth, and came out of the back door to the landlord's house.

Grandma Sun lives in a small courtyard in the back alley, and the shops on this street, including the jewelry store, the Rejuvenation Hall, the rouge gouache shop and other shops, are all inherited from her ancestors. Her husband died early, and she had only two sons. The eldest son followed her to guard the shops on the street left by the ancestral property in Xuanzhou, and the younger son guarded the old house in the countryside of his hometown in the countryside.

Because her husband died at an early age, this grandmother raised her two sons alone, and felt that life was impermanent, so she always fasted and recited Buddha and often did some good deeds. For example, this time Xuanzhou encountered a flood disaster that was rare in a century, and Grandma Sun made a big pot of porridge boil in the kitchen every day, and asked her son to bring it outside the courtyard gate to fill the stomachs of those poor victims who fled the famine and asked for food, so there were always a large number of beggars and victims at the gate of their yard.

is different from Grandma Sun's kind eyebrows, but his son was born with big shoulders and a round waist and a full face, but when it comes to business, he turns his face and doesn't recognize people.
