After Qin Ruiming invited Inoue Zechuan into the medicine hall, Inoue said to Qin Ruiming:

"Sir, can you go to the inner chamber for a while?"

Qin Ruiming was also muttering, he had never had any entanglement with the Japanese, why did Inoue come this time this Japanese devil. So Qin Ruiming said:

"Mr. Inoue, then please go to the inner hall."

In order to treat the Qin family politely this time, Inoue did not wear a military uniform, but came over in a kimono, Qin Ruiming invited him to the inner room, and then asked the guy to make a new pot of tea, and let the people on the left and right leave.

At this time, there were only Qin Ruiming and Inoue Sawakawa in the room, as well as a translator. Qin Ruiming took a sip of tea, and asked Inoue directly straight to the point:

"Mr. Inoue, we have never met, you must have come to me to go to the Three Treasures Hall for nothing, if you have anything to say, just say it directly."

Inoue smiled and said: "Happy, I like a fast-talking person like Mr. Qin, forgive me for taking the liberty of coming, this time I just want Mr. Qin to do me a favor." ”

Qin Ruiming did not answer, but continued to look at Inoue, meaning that if there was anything to say, Inoue was not ambiguous, and said directly:

"This time, on behalf of the imperial army, I came to ask Mr. Qin to lend me something, I really don't hide it, for several years, the imperial army in the China region can be said to be a good news, but there are casualties in the war, I heard that Mr. Qin's ancestral medicine is miraculous for the treatment of trauma, so I took the liberty to ask for it this time."

Qin Ruiming laughed and said, "This is easy to say, Mr. Inoue, I will definitely match it for you, but it will take time, and I will not give you more profits, as long as you pay the cost of medicinal materials." ”

Inoue frowned, and continued to smile: "You misunderstood, Mr. Qin, I mean, I came this time to beg you to lend us a copy of the recipe, but don't worry, our imperial army will never pass it on to you." We will never use this to be a business opponent with you, our purpose is to support the army. ”

Qin Ruiming couldn't help but be shocked, but he had always been calm, so he said lightly: "Mr. Inoue." Do you know that this recipe is indeed the secret recipe of our Qin family, but there is a saying from the ancestors, and it cannot be passed on, so. Please forgive me for not being able to obey my fate, but if you need the medicine of the Seven Spirits Flower Scatter, I am willing to help. ”

Inoue Zechuan is a smart person, and he also heard the resoluteness of Qin Ruiming's words, so he said: "I know, our imperial army came to borrow it, Mr. Qin Ruiming, you still have some trust, you make an offer, or if you have any requirements, just mention it." We'll think about it. ”

Qin Ruiming said with a straight face: "Mr. Inoue, I really don't dare to disobey the ancestral teachings, this recipe really can't be passed on, otherwise I will not see the ancestors underground after I die!" ”

Inoue was a little impatient at this time, and said: "Mr. Qin, you also know that our Great Japanese Empire has paid a lot for the holy war, I won't say anything else, but in the territory of SD. There are still a lot of anti-Japanese armed activities. We are also here for goodwill, think about it, you and I have been ravaged by the Western powers since 1840. We have all struggled for survival, and fortunately, our Imperial Japan has finally been freed from the oppression of these white Westerners, but unfortunately, your country is still divided by warlords, and the Western powers each support their own proxies to wage war on Chinese soil. Killing everywhere has made the people miserable. ”

At this time, Qin Ruiming couldn't help but feel a little disdainful, but Inoue still held back his anger and said:

"Mr. Qin, before the Holy War, your country was divided from north to south, from the north to the south, the Feng line, the direct line, the Anhui line, the Gui line, the Northwest Army and Chiang Kai-shek's armed forces, etc., and I fought the Japanese Imperial Army in order to stop this state of disintegration and end the war with war, so I crusaded against these people. The affairs of our yellow race, but because of the manipulation of the Western powers in the background, it has caused years of war, you say Mr. Qin, what I am saying is the truth? ”

Qin Ruiming also knew that the various factions of the Nationalist Government were killing each other endlessly, which was true, but he knew that this was not something that the Japanese could manage, so Qin Ruiming said solemnly:

"Mr. Inoue, with all due respect, what you said also has some truth, but China's affairs are Chinese's affairs, and there is no need to bother your country to interfere."

Inoue disagreed: "Mr. Qin is a little extreme, our Great Japanese Empire was also bullied back then. But now it has risen, just to build a Greater East Asia Co-Prosperity Sphere, and we yellow people ourselves have the final say in the Co-prosperity East Asia. ”

When Qin Ruiming heard this, he didn't refute it, so he said: "Since Mr. Inoue is here for common prosperity, I am also very willing to believe in this policy of common prosperity, since common prosperity, the first thing is to respect each other, of course, Mr. Inoue came to see me Qin Ruiming this time, it is to respect me, I am very flattered." ”

Inoue nodded with satisfaction, feeling that Qin Ruiming was not the kind of person who was stubborn, so he went straight to Qin Ruiming and continued:

"Since we respect each other, we must respect our respective cultures, customs and property, since this recipe is passed down from the ancestors of our Qin family, and the ancestral teachings cannot be passed on to outsiders, then I can't do anything, presumably Mr. Inoue won't be too difficult for me, right?"

Inoue Zechuan didn't expect Qin Ruiming to be so difficult to deal with, and he actually dug a pit for himself to jump into, but just now he was full of joy listening to his unstoppable goodwill policy across the Japanese Empire, and in order to let himself fall into the trap, he couldn't help but be a little dumb and eat coptis, and he laughed a few times.

Inoue was silent for a long time, but now he is difficult to ride a tiger, Qin Ruiming also greeted him, Inoue really had nothing to say, so he got up and said goodbye:

"Since Mr. Qin has such an attitude, we can't force it, after all, we are outsiders, and most of your country is now under the leadership of Chairman Wang, and our imperial army will not interfere. I won't stay any longer, and we'll have a meeting later. ”

Saying that, Inoue Sawakawa bowed and went out.

After Qin Ruiming sent Inoue away, he was very worried when he returned to the house. He knew that since the Japanese offered to "borrow" the recipe, they would never give up, and his recipe was in the secret place of the Qin family, which could only prevent ordinary bandits, and if the Japanese came by force, they would definitely be able to find out. In fact, Qin Ruiming's father, Qin Zhihong, hid the "Records of the Green Capsule" in a secret compartment in the study, and created an ingenious mechanism, if someone forcibly opened it, it would cause the sulfuric acid inside to flow into the box and destroy the entire book. But even then, the whole book would be lost, so he had to do it like the best of both worlds, keeping the original without letting the Japanese get it.

Qin Ruiming thought of Qiu Hengshui, at this moment, he thought of a perfect plan, so he disguised Hedong Village late that night.

In fact, Inoue didn't expect Qin Ruiming to act so quickly, otherwise he would definitely send someone to monitor it, Inoue felt that the Qin family would not do anything to the recipe, and he could only hide it himself, and he would not take it out until he had to, or destroy it.

And Qin Ruiming also had some scruples, afraid that the Japanese would follow him, but this was not a problem for him, if anyone followed, he would definitely find out, and it was very simple to get rid of him.

Qin Ruiming didn't find anything unusual along the way, so he walked quickly, passed Hedong Village, and walked a few miles into the wilderness, and then entered the mountain.

In the early hours of the morning, he arrived at Xiyu Village, there were villagers on duty at the entrance of the village, and when he saw someone coming, he was also vigilant, but as soon as Qin Ruiming signed up, the villagers on duty at night directly put Qin Ruiming in, and quickly sent someone to Qiu Hengshui's house to report the news.

When Qiu Hengshui learned that Qin Ruiming was coming, he also calculated that there must be something big, so he quickly put on his clothes and came to the village to pick up Qin Ruiming at home.

After entering the house, Qin Ruiming followed Qiu Hengshui to a secret room, and without saying much kind words, he directly told Qiu Hengshui what he encountered during the day.

Qiu Hengshui asked Qin Ruiming: "Brother Ruiming, just say it, what do you want me to do." ”

Qin Ruiming said: "I know that your Qiu family is the most reliable, so there is one thing to ask for, that is, I want to let you keep this Seven Spirit Flower Scattering Recipe." ”

Qiu Hengshui hurriedly said: "This is absolutely unacceptable, this recipe is the secret of your ancestors, give it to me, wouldn't it trap me in injustice!" ”

Qin Ruiming continued: "Do you want me to give it to the Japanese? I know that the Japanese will never give up. Otherwise, I'll take this thread-bound book apart, and then take out the last and most critical inner part, a kind of two-page, for you to keep safely, and this recipe is also at the end of the book, if the Japanese force it, they will only take the foreign side without knowing it. ”

Qiu Hengshui also understood this ingenious plan at this time, so the two of them carefully dismantled the entire threaded book, let Hou take out the last key inner two pages, and then rebound the rest of the whole book, which was no different from the original.

Then, Qiu Hengshui led Qin Ruiming alone to a secret cave on the south slope, in fact, this secret cave is a chain cave. Qiu Hengshui slowly found a stone slab under the soil and stones in the depths of the cave, and after lifting it up, it turned out to be another hole in the cave, so Qiu Hengshui asked Qin Ruiming to climb in with him.

The whole inner hole is only a few meters square, Qiu Hengshui took out the two pages of the inner square, wrapped them in oiled paper that separated the water, and then put them in a small box, and then sealed them with wax. When the wax at the seal was about to melt, Qiu Hengshui hurriedly picked up Qin Ruiming's right thumb and said:

"Brother Ruiming, I just keep this recipe, after I die, I will only tell the reliable Qiu family to keep the secret, and you must also pass on this secret from generation to generation, and there are your fingerprints on this seal, so as to ensure that our Qiu family will not look at it."

Qin Ruiming couldn't help but be a little moved, he didn't expect Qiu Hengshui to be so righteous, he actually sealed the wax mouth with his fingerprints, and guaranteed that the Qiu family would not steal the prescription. Qin Ruiming couldn't help but get up and gave a deep salute to Qiu Hengshui, Qiu Hengshui saw this and hurriedly helped Qin Ruiming up, and said:

"You and I are heart-to-heart, why bother, this is not a place to talk, it's not good to be discovered, let's go out."

Qin Ruiming also immediately understood, so he followed Qiu Hengshui out of the secret cave. (To be continued.) )
