Dongsheng Dynasty, Langzhou, the northwest frontier, Yonghe Town. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

The scorching sun was in the sky, and it was just past noon, and there were not many pedestrians passing by on the streets of the town, which seemed a little deserted.

At the corner of the street, a pair of men and women in brocade clothes walked briskly.

The man is handsome, the woman is pretty, she is really a talented woman, and at a glance she knows that she is a child of a rich family.

At this time, the pretty woman slowly stopped and looked at a shop at the fork in the street.

The handsome man immediately noticed the strangeness of his companion, turned his head and asked, "What's wrong?" ā€

The pretty woman gestured to the front and said softly, "Look at that young man." ā€

The handsome man followed the sound.

I happened to see a young man of seventeen or eighteen fiddling with a pile of fresh medicinal herbs, ready to be dried and stored in front of a pharmacy.

This young man's face is a little dark, but his facial features are upright, and he is quite delicate under a closer look, and he may also be a talent after a little grooming.

It's just that there is some disharmony that the young man has an empty left sleeve and is obviously disabled.

And while walking, his right leg was still limping.

There is really an injustice in heaven, and it has befallen this young man who is in his prime!

However, this young man was also quick to work, unhurried and methodical, and it was not easy to do so under such a hot and unbearable scorching sun.

Looking at the young man who was working quietly, the handsome man in the distance nodded and said, "Perseverance, at such an age, it is not easy. But what I want to say more is that the shopkeeper of this pharmacy is really bad, let him do this kind of work, you look at that thin body and bones......"

"Chen Ting, why haven't you finished your work yet, let me in immediately!" A snarky voice came from the medicine shop, and it could be heard from afar.

The young man at the door replied, "Right now." ā€

As he spoke, the young man named Chen Ting quickened his movements.

I saw his right hand flying, sorting herbs, hanging them on the bamboo poles on both sides one by one, and in a short time, the remaining herbs had been processed, and then limped towards the store.

Retracting his gaze, the handsome man tilted his head and said, "Everyone has their own way of living, let's go too, don't delay the hour." ā€

The pretty woman smiled and nodded, and left with the man.

……

Chen Ting quietly looked at the middle-aged shopkeeper in front of him chattering, while pinching the rag to remove the smell of herbs on his hands.

The seventeen-year-old appearance no longer shows any traces of innocence on his face, only the bitterness and sweat of hard work for a living.

"Did you hear me clearly, you can rest after doing this work." The sallow face shopkeeper swallowed and spat, and said in a tone of instruction.

Chen Ting wiped his sweat and nodded back, "I heard clearly." Zhang Daring's bone-setting medicine, ten days' weight, Li Erjia's pair of Zhenggusan, Aunt Wang's family's pair of wind and cold decoction, Xu Xiucai's family's three coins of silver cinnamon, five coins of Wufang, and a string of Ma Lingcao...... The money has already been collected, just send it. When I came back, I put the herbs in front of the door and in the backyard into the cabinets, then counted the stock of each medicine cabinet, cleaned the shop, and I could rest after doing all this work. ā€

After listening, the shopkeeper nodded with satisfaction, looking like a teachable child.

As if remembering something, the shopkeeper touched his waist bag, picked out a few pieces of loose silver from the money bag, and then spoke: "This is your salary last month, and you will be given half of it according to the rules, and the other half will be converted into medicinal materials and taken by yourself." Don't want to take advantage of it, I have an account in my heart! ā€

Chen Ting replied: "Understood." ā€

The shopkeeper slowly leaned back on the recliner and waved his hand: "Go to work, be quick, Zhang Daring and they have been waiting for a long time." ā€

Taking a deep breath, Chen Ting didn't say much, and walked to the medicine cabinet to grab the medicine.

You are the one who is still sleeping in the morning, and you are the one who doesn't let me catch medicine for the guests without authorization.

After muttering a few words in his belly, Chen Ting didn't want to think about it.

With this kind of shopkeeper, he doesn't have that much spare work.

Bone-setting medicine, Zhenggu San, wind and cold decoction......

Chen Ting, a pair of prescriptions, was already familiar with it, and he limped back and forth between the various medicine cabinets, and the speed was not slow.

Carrying the burden full of medicinal herbs, Chen Ting glanced sideways at the shopkeeper lying on the bench, shook his head, picked up the small crutch in front of the door, and walked towards the door.

"Uncle Qian, help me look at the pharmacy, I'm sorry for you."

"No problem, wrap it up on me!"

Through the streets and alleys, in the scorching sun, Chen Ting's ups and downs frequently flashed in Yonghe Town.

He was busy until late at night, and Chen Ting was free.

Return to a cabin in the backyard of the pharmacy.

A bed.

A table.

A stove.

Two small cabinets, a couple of medicine jars, and a few bits and pieces, that's all there is to his room.

Putting down the crutches, he lay heavily on the bed and did not move for a long time.

He has been in this town for more than half a year, and this kind of life is something he has never imagined before.

Unable to move, I run around every day for life, except for eating and sleeping, I have very little time for myself.

It's bitter, but it's extraordinarily fulfilling.

Suddenly opened his eyes, quickly turned over and sat up, looking at the empty left hand, Chen Ting shook his head, and put away this piece that did not belong to him after all.

Yin and Yang Holy Land, I will come back sooner or later!

I boiled a bowl of soup on the stove and drank it all with my head up.

Compared with being lame and lame, Chen Ting is more concerned about the hidden disease in the body, which is a strange poison that is almost imperceptible in the world.

This kind of Yin Yang Holy Sect's secret body poison is very vicious, even after so long, it is still destroying his body.

But more importantly, the existence of the body poison for many years has completely disturbed his meridians, and there is no possibility of cultivation.

That's right, it's a world of practice.

Strengthen the body, prolong life, and even fly away, move mountains and seas, all mysteries are possible!

Therefore, the broken arm is reborn and the lame leg recovers, as long as Chen Ting can cultivate, it is only a matter of time before he returns to normal.

But the Yin Yang Holy Sect is also ruthless here, not only abolishing all his skills, but also killing them all, cutting off the possibility of him re-cultivating.

Not to mention cultivation, even becoming an ordinary martial artist is a luxury for him now.

Forging veins, refining organs, quenching bones, spirit body, and the four realms of martial arts, the first step is to get him stuck.

Three years, at most three years, if you don't get rid of this poison, the meridians will be cut off, and the five organs will fester, and you will definitely die a miserable death!

Putting down the soup bowl, Chen Ting clenched his fists and said secretly: "Make money, make more money, high-grade elixir, there is no cheap one!" ā€

Whether the worldly gold and silver could be exchanged for high-grade elixir, Chen Ting was not completely sure, let alone how to get such a large sum of money in three years, but this was already the only feasible plan he could think of at present.

If you don't do it, you can only wait for death, and if you do it, there is still a chance of survival!

Perhaps, no one thought that I would be able to live like this.

……

The morning sun is slightly dewed, and the morning sun is rising.

Such good weather has been in Yonghe Town for several days.

Early in the morning, the town has already begun to be busy, various businesses and shops have opened their doors, and roadside vendors are also endless, so it is a lively scene.

Pushing open the door of the pharmacy to welcome the first rays of sunshine in the morning, Chen Ting enjoyed this kind of moment.

"Chen Ting! What are you doing in a daze, why don't you clean up the counter quickly! It was rare for the sallow face shopkeeper to get up early, but the sour tone was as always.

Chen Ting immediately turned around and said, "Yes, Shopkeeper Li." ā€

Looking at Chen Ting, who had started to work, Shopkeeper Li muttered: "A little mental, could it be that the ancestral medicine of Na Laoshi can really cure this strange disease?" ā€

Shopkeeper Li's puzzled voice came to Chen Ting's ears, but he didn't have the slightest intention of answering.

Just kidding, that's what I deduced for a long time based on the properties of the body poison.

If you hadn't taken this decoction every day, it is estimated that you would be terminally ill by now.

Of course, this special decoction only has a relieving effect, and the body poison has been deeply ingrained in his body, and he wants to use these ordinary medicinal materials to make a decoction to remove the poison, but there may not be any at all.

Half an hour later, there was still no first customer entering the door, and the shopkeeper Li said a little impatiently: "I'll go out, look at the store, remember, only money is allowed, not medicine!" ā€

Chen Ting didn't bother to answer, and nodded in understanding.

After Shopkeeper Li went out, Chen Ting was bored and went to the door to chat with Uncle Qian from the grain and oil shop next door.

"Is there anyone, why doesn't there even a figure in a pharmacy?" A crisp woman's voice slowly came from the pharmacy.

Seeing that a guest came to the door, Chen Ting immediately walked back to the pharmacy with a crutch.

What catches your eye is a graceful back, black ponytail, pink and white dress, giving people a bright feeling.

As soon as he entered the door, Chen Ting said, "Guest officer, do you need to catch medicine?" ā€

With a delicate face, snow-white skin, and a pair of talking eyes, she is a young and handsome girl, which is not common in this Yonghe Town.

This is Chen Ting's second impression.

The woman was surprised when she saw him, but the focus of her surprise was only Chen Ting's age and the crutch in his left arm and right hand: "Help me grab a pair of medicines according to this prescription." ā€

"I'm sorry, the shopkeeper is not here now, so I can't give you medicine." As he spoke, Chen Ting bowed his head and returned to the counter.

The woman was stunned and said, "You're not a guy from the pharmacy?" ā€

Chen Ting glanced at the woman, and then looked down at the prescription on the counter: "This is the rule of the pharmacy, or you pay first, and when the shopkeeper comes back, he will arrange for someone to send the medicine to you." ā€

After hearing this, this woman, who didn't seem to be much older than Chen Ting, immediately became dissatisfied: "What kind of rule, I'll add money, okay?" ā€

Chen Ting bowed his head and replied, "I'm sorry, this really can't work." ā€

The woman glared at Chen Ting fiercely, and the little good impression of his disabled Zhijian was swept away, and she grabbed the prescription and turned away.

Before leaving, the woman said angrily: "Inexplicable! ā€

Seeing the woman go away, Chen Ting raised his head and breathed a sigh of relief.

is so low-voiced, it's not because I see a beautiful woman and feel inferior. It was just because he noticed the black gold jade plate on the woman's waist, which gave him a familiar feeling, a vague impression.

Existence is reasonable, since there is an impression, it means that he has seen it a long time ago, and it is not simple.

In his current situation, it is better to have less contact.

The methods of the Yin Yang Holy Sect, he couldn't be clearer, as long as there is the slightest clue, with his original identity, those people definitely don't mind ordering another extermination operation!

It was almost noon, and Shopkeeper Li returned to the store with a smile on his face.

After a brief report on the morning's situation, Chen Ting continued: "Shopkeeper Li, it's time for dinner, I'll go out." ā€

"Okay, go and get back quickly. Remember to bring me a meal back, it's the same as before, it's money. Sitting on the recliner, Shopkeeper Li greeted.

Putting away the money, taking the crutches, Chen Ting walked out quickly. (PS: New books for newcomers, please support more.) )
