What the? I was stunned for a moment, and then glanced at Chen Xiang. 【】
I thought to myself, uh...... Could it be that with his strength, he still needs the help of others?
It seems to me that the shopkeeper of the pharmacy must have underestimated him.
My eyes were focused on the young man who came out of the pharmacy.
It seems that the person is a regular person, and there is nothing special about it.
Chen Xiang really guessed my thoughts, and he smiled at me and said, "Xiaolin, in fact, I told the shopkeeper. ”
"I told him I had a lot of strength and didn't need any help!"
I glanced at the young man at the pharmacy and asked in a surprised tone, "In that case...... Why did he come along? ”
Chen Xiang scratched his head and said helplessly: "The shopkeeper's insistence is to let people help!" ”
"He's kind, and I'm ...... I'm sorry to refuse! ”
Chen Xiang looked at me and said with a smile: "Xiaolin, we want to borrow other people's territory, and the shopkeeper agreed." ”
"Xiaolin, we can't ...... You can't force down someone's kindness! ”
Uh, I think this guy has a point.
Otherwise, it will seem that we are very impersonal, how can we happily cooperate?
I listened to the words, pondered for a while, and changed my words: "Brother Chen, it's okay like this, it's always good to have someone to help." ”
...... Soon, we worked together to bring people to the backyard of the pharmacy.
Here in Northland, I've been watching it since I came in.
The shops along the street are not large, but when you walk in, they are quite deep, and they are all narrow courtyards.
At first glance, you don't know that there is a world in the backyard.
That's where we're coming in right now...... Walking to the backyard, I saw that the place was quite big.
Chen Xiang was still under the guidance of the pharmacy guys, and parked the carriage in a vacant lot.
This pharmacy is no different from the shops in the bustling area, with people coming and going every day.
The business in the store is quieter, so you can try not to be disturbed...... Just what the doctor ordered!
The young men who came in with him probably heard that they were going to borrow their place to heal people, so their eyes were full of curiosity.
By the carriage, he heard Chen Xiang's conversation with me.
At this moment, he looked at me with a little bewilderment, and couldn't help but look at me carefully, as if he wanted to see some clues from me.
I looked calm, because I knew in my heart what he was suspicious of.
In fact, at my age, no matter where I am, it seems that it is really not convincing.
I'm even thinner here in the Northland, and the locals look more mature than me when I'm my age, so it's very little convincing.
When he heard my conversation with Chen Xiang and knew that my next plan was to treat the patient, curiosity was inevitable.
I've seen similar scenes before, and I'm not surprised when I say it.
But being frequently looked at by him, I still felt a little funny in my heart, and said in my heart that if I was here in Beidi Town, I really had to be a doctor, and I was afraid that there would not be many people who came to me for medical treatment.
Do I have to take the initiative to promote it for me after the patient is cured, so that I can stand firmly!
I thought about it in my head, and it was very graphic.
...... Chen Xiang approached me, watched my movements, and asked in a low voice, "How is he now?" ”
I nodded and said to Chen Xiang, "Brother Chen, please go and tell the people in the pharmacy, I need ......."
One by one, I said what I wanted, and Chen Xiang had to help prepare it together.
After Chen Xiang walked away, I looked at the young man guarding on the side, and said calmly to him: "I have to trouble you, because I need to use paper and pencil and need to prescribe prescriptions." ”
"The medicine has to be fried first."
His eyes were surprised, and then his expression changed, and he looked at me and said solemnly, "Please follow me!" ”
Leaning less, another boy who looked like an apprentice came out of the house on the side of the courtyard.
The man motioned for him to temporarily help look after the patient.
It turned out that there was more than one apprentice in this pharmacy, and it was easy to find someone to help with chores.
I followed him to the house, holding a pen and writing down the prescription on a piece of paper.
He quietly watched me put down the pen, and when the third medicinal herb was written, he looked at it carefully and then said to me: "This flavored medicine is no longer available in the shop!" ”
I glanced at him out of the corner of my eye, and then asked in a flat tone, "Really?" Are you sure? ”
"Sure," he said, looking at me with a very affirmative tone, "I heard the shopkeeper talk about it yesterday!" ”
"This time, the car that delivered the medicine from the south went slowly, and the message was passed on the way."
He paused and said, "Hasn't the weather been bad lately?" Since the earthquake, there have been many rainy days. ”
"The car stops and goes when it comes from the south."
"I heard from the shopkeeper that it was the car that delivered the medicine...... It should still be in the area of Nanhua Town at this time! ”
Hearing this, I stopped looking at him, and after a few seconds of staring at his face, I said, "You are very good!" ”
He looked at me in amazement, confused.
I couldn't help but smile at him and said, "I usually consume very little of this flavored medicine. ”
"Take your shop as an example, you won't get caught many times a month."
"It's hard for you to know the quantity of such an unpopular medicine, even if the car transporting medicinal materials came from the south, but there must be a lot of medicinal materials transported by the car, and you can actually say it accurately."
"It can be seen that you are all concerned about the things in the store, and you are the shopkeeper...... I think I think you are very important! ”
He met my gaze, blushed and bowed his head and said, "Usually when business in the shop is not good, I have nothing to do when I am idle, so I just look at the medicinal materials in the store......"
"No wonder, that's why you know so well!"
I looked at him suddenly, and then said to him, "That's it! I continue to write, and you are watching. ”
My tone changed: "If the medicinal herbs I wrote about happen to be not available in the shop, remember to remind me." ”
"I'll replace it with something else that can be replaced."
"Okay, no problem."
He pursed his lips and nodded at me.
I continued to bow my head and write the recipe, and he waited patiently on the side, keeping his eyes on the name of each herb I had written.
...... The running hall stood in the corner of the window of the restaurant facing the street.
The weather outside is good, so the business of the restaurant is also good today.
He had just sent off a table of guests upstairs, and soon a new guest came in.
In between ordering and delivering wine, he stood in the corner of the window, his eyes swept towards the table of guests upstairs.
As a running hall in the store, you must pay attention to the needs of customers, and the so-called eyesight is practiced in this way.
To do things in the store, you have to be a clever person to adapt to it, so that the customers who come to eat and drink can be satisfied.
...... Paying attention to the guests upstairs, it is easy to be attracted by the guests at the table who only ordered a small pot of wine, and their eyes repeatedly turn in that direction.
Speaking of which, they didn't arrive at the store early, but after they sat down, they ordered the dishes of the store's chef.
The other two dishes recommended by Lian Paotang had a good reputation, but they gave up just because it took a long time.
When Rantang talked to them earlier, he heard that the two of them had important things to do when they arrived in Northland Town.
Since this is the case, it is not surprising that you don't dare to be greedy, but ......
What is surprising is that when they drank the pot of wine, which seemed to be not enough for one person in the running hall, they didn't mean to leave in a hurry!
Running to observe them, the two of them sometimes bowed their heads together to discuss, sometimes with a bit of joking chit-talk, but he looked at them...... It always feels a little weird.
The appearance of the two of them, if you think about it carefully, actually looks like they came out of somewhere.
Of course, the people who ran the hall were referring to the king of Sealand, because these people had been walking around the town a lot lately, even on the streets.
Sometimes they would walk through the streets in a hurry, and some would pass by on horseback or in a carriage, which could be seen as a military car.
But few of those people came to town to order food and drink, and sat down to chat.
They have a common characteristic, that is, they look very busy, they look like they still have important things to do, and the expression on their faces is relatively tense.
Ran Tang frowned and guessed, could it be that these two are really from the army?
So how to explain them so, then...... What about idle?
He thought in his heart on this side, and the two people who were drinking and eating food on the other side lowered their voices and talked again.
"When I got there, I saw the woman...... Your Majesty, what are you going to say? ”
"Intend to send the princess's letter directly?"
A person at the table looked at his companion and said, "You don't know that something has just happened in their camp, and the targets of suspicion are all directed at us." ”
"Besides, the news of the princess is inevitably faster!"
The two of them looked at each other and fell silent, and after thinking about it, his companion said, "Actually, this matter is not difficult to say, but it is a little difficult to convince the other party." ”
"To tell you the truth, it's no secret that each side has its own hands! The people who do things under the princess, aren't there those she has installed? Impossible! ”
As he spoke, he sighed, his eyes fixed on the opposite wall, and did not continue for a long time.
After a moment of silence, the person sitting across from him reached out to pour him some wine in order to ease the atmosphere.
"You said you waited for her to get the news...... After reading the letter, will you think that the princess is not ready and intends to delay the war? ”
The two looked at each other, and their companion whispered: "I don't think it's like this, but in my opinion, there may be a third-party force lurking behind in this matter......"
The companion was only halfway through this, and suddenly stopped.
He looked out the window.
The restaurant on this street is directly opposite the crowd of people coming and going.
He felt something, and his eyes locked on a stranger in the crowd who was walking briskly by.
Seeing this, the other person at the table immediately poked his head out and looked out as well.
Like his companions, he saw the stranger passing by the street.
The companion said keenly, "That's an alien, right?" ”
He frowned and muttered, "Look at him in a hurry...... Seem...... There seems to be something important. ”
He froze down, and then said, "When we came in from outside the town, there were quite a few aliens waiting in line outside for interrogation, did you see it?" ”
"That's natural, those people don't look the same, even if they're wearing the same clothes, it's easy to recognize."
"Those people have been haunting the Northland since the last earthquake!"
"I also heard about General Gu of Sealand......"
"It's the one who is stationed in the front-line camp now!"
"She sent a number of people to follow the aliens who were haunting the Northlands and even running to the mountains."
"The result?"
"It's a pity...... Failed to find direct evidence, so it can only be temporarily suppressed! ”
The one sitting across from him listened to his companion's words, shook his head, and said, "Your information is not as reliable as mine, or you have missed it. ”
"As far as I know, it wasn't the earthquake, in fact, they were active two years ago!"
"Don't you know that there is always something strange about this area around the Northlands, and the aliens may have heard some news and are interested in it."
The companion looked down and thought about it, and was about to answer, when suddenly his eyes were once again attracted to the people passing by on the street outside the window.
The man hurried his horse and watched as he rode well.
When passing by on the street, it is easy for passers-by to notice him.
From where they were, they were condescending enough to see the pedestrians on the street.
The man arrived at the shop opposite the restaurant, stopped his horse, and then went to buy some food.
He instructed the guy in the store to wrap it up and put it on the horse to take it away.
The time spent in the shop across the street was enough to make a good look at the man's face.
But the stranger was not a stranger, but a child of Sealand.
The problem is that the man is not like a man from the Northlands, but from the south of Zealand.
The two people sitting at the table in the restaurant saw it clearly, lowered their voices and said, "It seems that there are a lot of people here recently!" ”
The companion looked at it and frowned, thinking of something in his heart, and couldn't help but respond: "Did you say that those people came for the war in the Northland?" ”
"Hide in the area of Northland Town, waiting for an opportunity?"
The man seated replied, "The one we went to see has been in town for a few days, and she should have sent someone to keep an eye on the movements of the Northlands." ”
"If only there were a lot of suspicious people in town, whether they were of different races or from somewhere else...... She shouldn't let it go! ”
The companion looked thoughtfully at the street outside the window, and after a moment chimed in: "You're right, at least...... She will also send someone to watch in the dark. ”
The companion withdrew his gaze, looked up at him, and said, "I think that if there is some trouble, she must know immediately." (To be continued.) Mobile phone users, please browse and read, a better reading experience.
