- Du Bian narrowed his eyes slightly when he heard this, and said, "What did you mean by pulling my clothes just now, didn't you tell me to leave this matter alone?" ”

"No, we really can't do that." Wu Kang shook his head, groaned and said: "Yan Xingzhi lives with Liao Shi, and he himself is also a child of a medical family, no matter what, he will not take care of himself when he is sick." But if you think back to his face just now, in short, in my opinion, his days of illness are not short. ”

After listening to Wu Kang's analysis, Du Bian also thought about it, and was silent for a moment before saying, "Then what are your plans for this matter?" ”

Wu Kang immediately replied: "Yan Xingzhi's identity is not ordinary, and this matter must at least be told to Lord Lin first." ”

Du Bian asked: "Maybe he already knows, but he doesn't publicize it to others, will we really manage too much?" ”

Wu Kang hesitated for a moment, and then said, "No matter what, we must say this in front of Lord Lin. ”

The Yan family has only one grandson, and Lin Shan could have refused Yan Xing's trip to the north three years ago, but he didn't do it. Now, if something happens to him in the Northland, Lin Shan will be to blame.

Du Bian thought about this, nodded and agreed with the decision of his good partner Wu Kang, and at the same time couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "If your speculation is true, then the day before yesterday we were drugged by Liao Shi became excusable, and Old Man Liao should be worried about it." ”

Wu Kang sighed lightly, "This is really inaccurate. ”

Du Bian suddenly smiled helplessly, and said: "Speaking of this old guy, if I had known that he would go uninvited, when we came the day before yesterday, we shouldn't have rushed forward to knock on the door to find hardship." But...... Two days have passed, and I don't know if the female spy starved herself to death. ”

Du Bian mentioned a word about the female spy. Wu Kang suddenly realized that he had almost forgotten about this matter, and his expression suddenly froze. Urgently: "Go." ”

……

If it wasn't for Chen Jiu coming in person just now, it was the second batch of Lin Shan's guards who came to urge. Liao Shi probably didn't mind taking another medicine, and threw two sleeping people on the wooden bed with no straw mat.

It's just that considering that Chen Jiu is a woman, and she has a certain meaning to Lin Shan, Liao Shicai couldn't bear it.

However, Liao Shi would not believe what the two guards brought by Chen Jiu said. If according to them, Lin Shan is really dying, Liao Shi definitely has reason to believe it. The person who came to him would no longer ask for it verbally, but would go straight to it, and he would have to be tied up.

Those words that took his own safety as a child's play were probably taught by Lin Shan to his subordinates, but Liao Shi still didn't believe this set of words, but he still left for Lin Shan's residence, mainly because he wanted to discuss a very important matter with Lin Shan.

However, when he saw Lin Shan, he saw that Lin Shan's complexion really looked really wrong, and he was suddenly surprised.

After replacing Lin Shan's vein, Liao Shi stared at his somewhat pale face and asked, "Who did you use force with?" Who else do you need to use force with? Don't you have so many guards? ”

When Liao Shi said this, he didn't forget to glance at the several guards guarding the house in turn. The guards heard him clearly. Therefore, as soon as they met his glances, those few people all lowered their eyes slightly with shame.

Lin Shan suppressed the churning sensation in his stomach and raised his hand to signal. Let all the guards in the house go out, then he turned his face to look at Liao Shi, smiled reluctantly, and said, "Female spy." ”

Liao Shiwei was stunned for a moment and then understood, and immediately questioned: "Hasn't she been on a hunger strike for a few days?" Didn't you send someone to find me, because you were afraid that she would die, and you were anxious for me to give her another medicine to continue her life? How can a dying person be so powerful? ”

"That's what I thought at first, that's why I ......" Lin Shan didn't finish speaking, he took a deep breath and didn't continue. After a while, he said slowly: "Actually, the female spy who asked you to renew her life several times before has long since died. And when I went to see her, there was already another person lying on the bed. ”

"So cunning!" Liao Shi was surprised. But soon he realized a new problem and immediately asked, "What about your guards?" Haven't they been keeping watch in the house all the time, how could they not be aware of heresy? ”

Lin Shan shook his head slightly and said: "The female spy is too cunning, when she was caught just now, she sent six people to guard her, and she almost escaped several times. Recently, she has been bent on death, and her body has indeed been tortured to the point of death, and her body is no different from that of the living dead every day, and the guards will be a little relieved when they see this. However, the sudden and silent replacement of people is something that even I did not consider. ”

Liao Shi glanced sideways at the door, and only after retracting his gaze did he lower his voice and said to Lin Shan: "Since it is an aspect that even you didn't think of, could it be that there is something wrong with your own people?" ”

"Nope." When Lin Shan heard this, he immediately shook his head in denial.

Although it is undeniable that Liao Shi's statement may make sense in some cases, Lin Shan does have enough confidence and basis for the dozen or so guards he brought to the hermitage, believing that they will not defect.

After a slight hesitation, Lin Shan still picked the words away and said: "The original female spy has been dead for a few days, and was sealed by the impostor in several layers of cloth bags, and filled with a precious spice to block the smell, and put it under the bed. If I hadn't gone to see her today, it might have been until the corpse had rotted into a puddle of blood months later before it caught the attention of the guards. ”

Liao Shi pondered for a moment when he heard this, and then said: "Things are done so meticulously, the person who came may have accomplices, what did you do with that impostor?" ”

"Dead too." Lin Shan paused slightly, and only after a moment did he say more: "It took a lot of trouble for the guards to capture her, but they found that she had taken a slow poison in advance, and this poison will increase its internal strength by consuming vitality in a very short period of time after being urged by internal force. This woman came with the determination to kill me, and the ending was predetermined, either I would die or she would die. ”

Liao Shi looked at Lin Shan again, and saw that his face was indeed a little abnormal, so he immediately asked, "Are you okay?" ”

Lin Shan didn't answer, just shook his head.

Liao Shi didn't ask anything more, only lowered his eyes and thought for a moment before saying, "You have to be careful, it is likely that the news has flowed away." This place is no longer inhabitable. ”

Lin Shan nodded and said, "This matter ......"

He had barely said two words when he suddenly heard a brisk footstep at the door. He looked sideways and saw that it was the old wine that had come in.

"It's almost an hour after noon. Saburo, it's time for you to have lunch. Chen Jiu said, looked at Liao Shi again, and naturally showed a trace of respect on his beautiful and light makeup face, and blessed his body: "I've seen the pharmacist." ”

Liao Shichong nodded with a smile at Chen Jiu, and then he went to the dining room with Lin Shan.

The kitchen had already prepared the meal, and when Liao Shi and Lin Shan just sat down at the table, the steaming food was quickly served on the table. Liao Shi was already hungry. After learning that the matter of the female spy had just ended, although the ending was not perfect, but after all, he didn't need to take care of it anymore, and his spirit relaxed, and he suddenly felt that the hunger in his stomach was more obvious. Seeing that the dish was on the table, he didn't stick to politeness, and immediately took the chopsticks and put the dish in his mouth.

However, it didn't take long for the dish to be in his mouth, and he almost vomited it.

endured it, but finally couldn't bear it and didn't lose his honor directly at the dinner table. After swallowing the blandness, Liao Shi couldn't help but exclaim: "You don't put salt in your stir-fried vegetables?" And when he looked at the woods. I saw that he hadn't moved his chopsticks yet.

Chen Jiu, who was standing on the side, was about to speak when he heard this, but was stopped by Lin Shan: "Jiu'er, take these dishes to the kitchen and return to the pot to add ingredients." ”

Chen Jiu couldn't help but say, "Then what should you do?" ”

Lin Shan didn't say much. He said, "Go ahead." ”

When Chen Jiu took a maid to take all the dishes on the table away, and there was no one else in the dining room, Liao Shi also realized that something was wrong, looked at Lin Shan and asked, "Something to hide from me?" ”

"I was negligent just now." Lin Shan nodded. "There's something I'm about to tell you."

……

After Lin Shan finished what he was about to say, the kitchen had already re-fried the few dishes that had just been served on the table with a dull taste, but at this time, Liao Shi held the chopsticks and handed the dishes to his mouth, and he still felt that he didn't seem to taste anything.

He didn't taste much of the different flavors of the dishes, the former was due to the dishes, and the latter was due to a low mood.

Only two bites were eaten. Liao Shi put down his chopsticks, he raised his palms and rubbed his face with some annoyance. After breathing a sigh of relief, he looked at Lin Shan, who was sitting at the tea table in the corner of the house, and said, "So you can find the body of the female spy hidden under the bed in the guard room." And the other guards didn't notice this at all, because your sense of smell is more sensitive than before? ”

"In my opinion, this is not a good thing." There was a faint smile on Lin Shan's face, and there was helplessness in it.

Liao Shi nodded and sighed lightly: "These symptoms of yours appeared much earlier than I estimated, so I'm worried." ”

Lin Shan was silent for a moment before he spoke: "You have already predicted these symptoms, and I am ready to accept them, but for now, I still want to ask you for a medicine." Do you have any drugs like this that can weaken or dull my three senses of hearing, smell, and food? ”

"Yes, yes, it's just ......" Liao Shi hesitated slightly, "A drug with this medicinal property can be said to be not completely called a medicine, but a poison." ”

Lin Shan thought for a moment, then smiled and said, "It's okay, as long as you can take it out, I think it's necessary for me to rely on this medicine for a while." ”

"What do you want to do?" Doubts appeared on Liao Shi's face.

Living close to Lin Shan, he has lived close to Lin Shan for nearly three years, and in such a long time, everything Liao Shi has done is related to cooking Lin Shan's body, so naturally he will have some superficial understanding of what he does on weekdays. However, Liao Shi is not a slow-thinking person, even if he only relies on these superficial understandings and sums up and calculates, he roughly knows what Lin Shan is going to do in the past few years in seclusion in the Northland, and the implementation date of a certain plan.

So he could quickly remember something, and then said, "Are you going to leave here?" ”

Faced with Liao Shidi's doubts, Lin Shan hesitated at first, and finally did not choose to hide it from him, and said bluntly: "Yes, it won't be long before I have to leave." I don't need to explain any more, right? You know where I'm going, so I have to take the medicine I just mentioned. ”

Liao Shi understood what Lin Shan said, but at the same time, he was also worried about the matter in his heart, and frowned and said, "In my opinion, you still need a period of time to recuperate, can't you delay it for a year or half a year?" ”

"The matter of the west should have been settled eight years ago." Lin Shan shook his head, "We can't delay any longer. ”

Liao Shi understood Lin Shan's style of acting, so he didn't persuade him more. After thinking about it for a while, he said, "Then you can wait for me for a few more days, although I have a ready-made medicine there, I think if I can improve it." There will always be more good for you. ”

Lin Shan nodded and said, "Don't worry, I'll stay here for more than half a month." ”

"It's only half a month! Still tell me that I'm not in a hurry? I heard Lin Shan's own words say the approximate date of leaving. Liao Shi almost jumped to his feet, "Why didn't you tell me about this earlier?" It takes two or three days just to observe the potion taking effect, and even if you don't include the time wasted on the failure rate, I only have about ten days to help you dispense the medicine! ”

"I wanted to find you, but I couldn't." Lin Shan smiled faintly, "Du and Wu went to look for you two days ago, and they haven't come back since. This is not their habit of doing things, are you drugging them again? ”

"Don't talk about me so badly, as if I'm really a medicine ghost who likes to test medicine on the living." Liao Shi coughed dryly, and then said: "I'm just tired of being interrupted by others when I was thinking about the problem, and I have already let them go just now." ”

Although he said this is reasonable, it is undoubtedly equivalent to indirectly admitting Lin Shan's speculation.

Lin Shan smiled slightly, and didn't care about this issue anymore. There was an iron kettle on the small tandoor beside him, the water in it was just boiling, and he took the iron kettle and made himself a cup of strong tea. Holding the hot teacup in his hand for a moment, he watched the heat rise from the rim. Slowly said as if talking to himself: "At present, it is only the third sense that has a problem, and if it is dragged to the other two senses, there is also a problem...... So this matter cannot be delayed. ”

Liao Shi suddenly spoke: "I can't say anything about this matter. ”

Lin Shan nodded in agreement, and looked sideways at Liao Shidao: "The first person to know about this is Chen Jiu. She's thoughtful, and I can't hide it from her. The second person is you, and there is no one else. ”

Liao Shi smiled when he heard this, and when he accepted the smile, his eyes looked as if he had hidden something, his pupils deepened, and he said slowly: "To be honest, I have always wanted to ask you, until the matter in the west is resolved." What's next for you? You may not want to be knighted, but you have to start a family. At least you can't live up to the people around you. ”

Lin Shan raised his eyebrows, "What do you want to say?" ”

"What else can I say." Liao Shi waved his hand. "Wife, old wine."

Lin Shan was stunned for a moment, and gradually the expression in his eyes became complicated, and after being silent for a long time, he sighed and said, "Uncle, your teacher is chasing up a generation, and it can be regarded as a side line of the North Fence, and the rules of the master are ...... Can't you understand my troubles? ”

Liao Shi immediately asked, "What about your senior brother?" Now that your health is like this, don't torture yourself with sect rules. ”

"If I can get my junior brother back, maybe these problems can be solved." Lin Shan said that, he drank half a cup of strong tea in one go, but seeing his expression after putting down the teacup, it seemed that he had just drunk a bowl of throat-cutting liquor, which made his brows rise a deep wrinkle.

Picking up the iron kettle and filling his teacup with water, holding the hot teacup in his hand again and rubbing it slowly, Lin Shan looked at Liao Shi and said: "However, I can find someone as difficult to find as you, but I have been looking for him for more than ten years, but I have not found the slightest news of him." Sometimes I wonder if he was already dead, he was only thirteen years old when he left the sect, and there were many wars in the world. ”

"If you want me to see, it's not that you can't find him, it's that he doesn't want you to find him." Liao Shi smiled disapprovingly, and then said: "Have you thought about it, if I don't want you to find it, do you think you can really find me?" In addition, thirteen years old is not young, don't underestimate the disciples of Beili, it is not for nothing that only two disciples are accepted in a generation. ”

"That's just as well." Lin Shan had a smile on his face.

Liao Shi looked at the smile on Lin Shan's face, and after a moment of silence, he said, "Although I don't know why your junior brother left the sect early, listening to your words, it seems that it is not just a simple reason for being expelled, but I think that if there is some misunderstanding that caused this matter, maybe he will have to go back to the sect to meet the master in person before he can really solve the problem." ”

Lin Shan's expression of thought when he heard this, and before he could say anything about this matter, a rush of footsteps suddenly came from outside the door, which attracted his attention.

Because of taking Chiyan blood ginseng three years ago, Lin Shan's body has already had some adverse reactions, and his three senses have become extremely acute, and he has already heard the sound before the person outside the door approaches.

Looking out the door, he saw a man. The first thing to notice was the small square box that the man was holding, then the man's dusty face and dusty clothes.

The man was dressed differently than the dozen or so guards stationed at the residence, but Lin Shan recognized this man as the Secret Messenger. However, this type of messenger generally uses a leather or bamboo tube to keep long-distance letters. It is not common to use a cumbersome box like this to pack letters.

The Secret Trace Courier will only contact the cedar if he has to deliver a message to the Northlands. In the last three years, although Lin Shan has often contacted the two groups of people in the west, in fact, he has rarely communicated with the secret messenger from Kyoto, and this messenger has no chance to meet with Liao Shi at all, but he can probably deduce that the elder sitting alone at the dining table in the house must be Lin Shan's important guest, so he only glanced at him a few times, and without much precaution, the messenger walked straight to Lin Shan. Hand over the small square box in your hand.

Lin Shan's eyes were on the door before, but after a long while, Liao Shicai also heard the sound of hurried footsteps, watching this qiē, Liao Shi saw more deeply that Lin Shan's sense of hearing was really pathologically keen, and he couldn't help but sigh secretly in his heart.

After Lin Shan took the small square box handed by the messenger, he first looked at it and pondered for a while, then left his seat and got up, and said to Liao Shi: "Uncle." I'm going to the study, you eat slowly, what's the need. Directly call the servants to serve. ”

As soon as he had finished speaking, he had already walked out of the door, and it seemed that the letter from the secret messenger today was not only urgent, but also serious.

Liao Shi hesitated, and just stood up and was about to go out, when he heard Lin Shan's command outside the door, and then a maid walked in.

When Liao Shi walked to the door, Lin Shan had already walked far away, and he swallowed the sentence "You don't eat" back into his stomach.

Silent sigh. Liao Shi walked back into the house, but he didn't immediately sit back at the table. Instead, he paced to where Lin Shan had just sat and his eyes fell on the teacup that had just been filled with hot water. I saw that the color of the tea soup in the pottery cup was too dark. It makes people feel that the taste is also thick, Liao Shi remembered the way Lin Shan drank tea just now, and his brows moved slightly.

At Lin Shan's order, the maid who stayed in the dining room and waited for the call saw Liao Shi staring at a cup of hot tea as if in a daze, and after waiting quietly for a while, she couldn't help but ask, "Does the old gentleman need tea?" ”

Liao Shi glanced back at the young maid with a bright face, and seemed to be in a better mood, and said after laughing twice: "Little girl, help me get a pair of clean chopsticks." ”

In fact, the position he was standing at this time was not a few steps away from the dining table, but when he saw the cute little girl, he couldn't help but want her to help him do something. A young girl is like a bud that has just bloomed, even if it is a nameless flower on the side of the road, it will make people can't help but stop and pay attention.

However, in the eyes of the little girl, the rickety back in front of her made her look relatively short, and the skin on her face was also wrinkled, and her face was ugly, even when he laughed, he couldn't see where to go, and even because of that smile, his face became a little weird.

The pupils shrank slightly, the little girl didn't dare to look at his smiling face more, only lowered her eyebrows and raised her eyes with a "hmm", and then went to the dinner table to pick out a pair of new chopsticks, then turned around and approached him a little, stretched out her arms and handed them over, "Old man, the chopsticks you want." ”

When Liao Shi took the chopsticks sideways, the little girl saw that the expression on his face had become very strict, and she thought that she had not done the chopsticks properly, and shrunk her neck slightly.

The maid was waiting for Liao Shixun to speak, but she didn't hear the old man's voice for a long time, so she couldn't help but look up, but saw that the old man cared about her, just focusing on the tea leaves in the pestle teacup.

The tea leaves were brought in by the servants in advance after they were put in the teacup, so to know what the tea came from, you really had to look at the tea residues. However, tea leaves are more convenient to distinguish after being soaked in boiling water.

Lin Shan's sense of taste has been diseased, which indirectly affects his diet seasoning, and the taste of the food is extremely bland, maybe it is so suitable for him, Liao Shi has also seen it just now, so he doubted, why can Lin Shan still drink such a thick strong tea?

Holding chopsticks, he picked out a few pieces of tea leaves from the teacup, moved them on the table, and after putting down the chopsticks, Liao Shi lowered his head and took a closer look, and his originally rickety back was even more bent.

After staring at the shape of the soaked tea leaves for a long time, he reached out and picked up the leaves and hung them in the direction of the light at the door, observed the leaf veins, and then hesitated for a moment, then turned around and took a sip of the teacup on the table, and the tea soup slid across the tongue. Soon he frowned.

As he expected, the tea was bitter, but the taste of the tea and his careful observation of the leaves were evident. It has allowed him to determine the category of this tea.

Smacking his lips, Liao Shi turned his gaze. looked at the maid who was standing on the side behind her, who was already full of doubts at this time, and asked, "Is this tea from that gentleman for your son-in-law?" ”

"That gentleman" refers to the imperial doctor who accompanied Lin Shan to the Northland three years ago, and unlike Liao Shi, he needs to stay in Lin Shan's secluded residence for a long time so that he can take care of him at any time.

However, in the past six months, the sin imperial doctor who was ostensibly expelled by the Imperial Medical Bureau has also been idle and has nothing to do. Liao Shi heard that he really did the work that led to his expulsion from Kyoto three years ago, and he relied on his excellent skills. He has now become a well-known drug dealer in the Northlands.

The maid was not very familiar with Liao Shi, but she was clear about the imperial doctor, because the two had met each other often. Although Lin Shan needs to keep his identity secret during this trip, so the little maid doesn't know the word "royal" in front of the title of imperial doctor, but she has already followed the habits of the locals and changed her name to "divine doctor".

So when she heard Liao Shidi's inquiry at this time, the maid reacted very quickly and nodded immediately. But she was soon surprised again, and whispered, "Old man." The maidservant just saw you staring at this tea residue repeatedly, is there anything wrong with this tea leaves? ”

"No problem." Liao Shi didn't think that if he was willing to explain, with the depth of this little girl's knowledge. Whether she could understand it, so he only perfunctory it with three simple words, and then asked: "How long has your son-in-law been drinking this tea?" ”

The doubts on the maid's face were even heavier, but she also clearly felt that the old gentleman didn't want to explain any more details to her, so she didn't ask anything more, and only answered the question obediently: "It's been about a month." ”

Liao Shi slowly raised his eyebrows, not knowing what kind of expression he was experiencing, and it took a moment to relax. Then he said, "Go and get the old wine." ”

When the maid heard this, fear suddenly appeared on her pretty face. Hurriedly said: "Old man, did the maid say something wrong just now?" ”

Liao Shi was slightly stunned. Immediately understood, he couldn't help laughing and said, "Why are you afraid of this? I just have something to do with your son-in-law, and I want to say to Chen Jiu directly, she is a close person to your son, but you are not. ”

"Oh, oh... The handmaid will go now...... Wait a minute, old gentleman. The maid nodded in response, secretly relieved at the same time, but also felt a little embarrassed, lowered her head and hurriedly trotted out.

The wine soon came, and the first thing she saw when she entered the room was at the dinner table. There was no Lin Shan in the room, and Liao Shi was not sitting at the table, Chen Jiu looked at Liao Shi who was standing next to the charcoal stove and seemed to be in a daze, and asked in the first sentence: "What's wrong with the pharmacist?" Is the food still not to taste? ”

Liao Shi came back from his contemplation when he heard this, shook his head and smiled: "No, if I can't even get used to the dishes you cook, then how can I be bribed by you, and just said a good word for you in front of that kid?" ”

Although he said so, there was no smile on Chen Jiu's face, and his tone gradually became cold: "Eventful." If you say something nice in your style, you have to have a thorn. Did you just quarrel again? ”

Liao Shi hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Wine girl, don't learn from that kid, why did you two stay together for three years, and your previous Wen Shu was gone?" ”

Chen Jiu didn't accompany him to continue gossiping, but only asked directly: "What about others?" ”

"I'm going to the study. A young man came just now, seeing that he was covered in dirt, he should have walked a short distance, and handed over a box when he met......" Liao Shi stopped without finishing his words, and then said: "Please believe, it is true that I didn't quarrel with him away." ”

Chen Jiu sighed secretly, and said, "What is the matter with the pharmacist looking for me?" ”

"Two things." Liao Shi didn't go around in circles with her anymore, and said slowly with a deep groan: "First, like this kind of strong tea, he shouldn't drink too much, and his usual diet is still based on tonics, which you must pay attention to." Second, he just asked me for a drug, in order to adjust the formula ratio, you need to observe some of his usual daily life rules and hand them over to me, such as sleep time, diet amount, etc., and I will write you a list of details later. Only you can do these two things, because for now, he only listens to you. ”

A sad look gradually appeared on Chen Jiu's face, and he said softly: "I can't hide it, it is precisely because he needs tonics that the imperial doctor will prescribe this kind of tea for him." Only in this way will he not spit out the meat soup he has just eaten. ”

"The bad symptoms have become like this!" Liao Shi's eyes were a little surprised, and after hesitating for a moment, he said, "It seems that he will take the initiative to ask me for medicine." It's also because he can't bear it anymore. ”

Hearing this, Chen Jiu couldn't help but ask, "What did you all say just now?" ”

"It's kind of something to do with the medicine." Recalling his conversation with Lin Shan just now, Liao Shi suddenly remembered something, and immediately asked, "He went to visit the female spy." Do you know the details? ”

Chen Jiu nodded and said, "I heard that the female spy has died a long time ago. The body had been hidden under the bed for days, and the bag containing the body had been wrapped in three layers, and by the time it was opened, it had begun to decompose. ”

"No wonder, no wonder......" Imagining the scene when the body bag under the bed was opened, Liao Shi couldn't help frowning slightly. He was originally not afraid of carrion, but considering that the person who opened the body bag was Lin Shan, whose senses had begun to disease, and how much pain that rotting smell would bring to Lin Shan, it would pull a string in his heart that rarely stumbled. It made him feel a little uncomfortable.

After being silent for a moment, Liao Shicai spoke again and said slowly: "You should also know that he has three senses that are different from ordinary people now, if you let him get close to the corpse that is beginning to decompose, it is estimated that he will not have a good appetite to eat half a bowl of rice in the past few days." If there were other guards present just now, with his character, he would definitely be able to hold on and not move. ”

Liao Shi's speculation was something that made Chen Jiu often worried, so she also frowned when she heard this, and said, "But I don't think what he reminded me earlier was wrong, and this matter is really not suitable for publicity." Otherwise it will cause many disadvantages for him. ”

Liao Shi nodded: "I also understand this." ”

After a moment of contemplation, he reached out and pulled over the medicine box resting on the table and opened it. Chen Jiu stood very close to him, and saw that there were about 20 bottles and cans in the medicine box. Don't look at himself as a little raunchy. Although there are many items in his medicine box, they are all neatly arranged.

His gaze swept inside, and he quickly fixed on one of the bottles and took it out. After glancing at the character engraved on the bottom of the bottle, he handed the bottle to Chen Jiu and instructed: "This medicine dulls people's sense of taste, so you give him one every day, so that he can eat for a few days." But remember, don't give him the whole bottle. Because the medicinal properties of this drug are not yet fully equipped. ”

Hearing the last half of Liao Shi's words, Chen Jiu's hand, who had just taken the small medicine bottle, couldn't help but tremble. But she quickly clenched the bottle like a lifesaver and nodded at Liao Shi.

Although this medicine may cause some harm to people. But Chen Jiu subconsciously felt that if Lin Shan's appetite could be improved and more nourishing food could be added, this damage would always be alleviated, right? It's better than him not going to the table for three days, just holding that pot of extremely bitter medicinal tea in the study, right?

Liao Shi didn't say the last half of the sentence too bluntly, and Chen Jiu wouldn't be flustered, but there was no way, Liao Shi would never lie about the potion he refined, unless he didn't want to take it out to let people know at all.

However, in terms of the overall situation, his style of acting is competent for a pharmacist. If he didn't say it at this time, Chen Jiu didn't know about the harm, and maybe he would let go at Lin Shan's request, causing Lin Shan to overdose.

Once Chen Jiu knew this, her insistence on one item would become extraordinarily tough, and Liao Shi could rest assured.

After putting the small medicine bottle into his sleeve and sorting out his mind a little, Chen Jiu asked softly, "Is this the kind of medicine he just asked you for?" ”

Liao Shi nodded, and said slowly: "I have already said the ugly things in advance, so I have already started to prepare the relevant medicines, just because I always can't leave some time ago, and the leisure for most of the past half a year is still a little insufficient." The Northland is desolate, unlike the South, where wild nature is abundant...... Alas, the main reason is that the time for these abnormalities in his body is much earlier than I estimated. ”

When Chen Jiu heard this, her face was sad, she glanced at Liao Shi's medicine box that had not yet been closed, there were so many bottles in it, it gradually brought her a trace of hope, and she couldn't help asking: "The pharmacist has great powers, can you find any good way to make him more comfortable?" ”

"I understand what you mean, but I'm just a person, and everything I do is based on reason." Liao Shi sighed, and said slowly: "Back then, in Dafengling, I accompanied the Chiyan blood ginseng, and waited for it to ripen and harvest smoothly. During that time, I also traveled down the mountain for several years, and I could already predict that Chiyan blood ginseng was a poisonous ginseng. But at the time, my inferences were only superficial and not thorough. ”
