As a result of the consultation, Yan Guang searched all the drug resources he could use, as long as the emperor acquiesced, as a doctor of the Taiyi Bureau, he could operate the Taiyi Bureau with full authority. Liao Shi went back to Xingjia Village and went to the pharmacy he had opened for his disappearance.

This pharmacy named "Sanliang", Liao Shi has only been in business for less than five years, but when Liao Shi left the shop to go to Dafengling, he did not change the shop, but increased the rent, until now, the lease period is nearly three years before it is topped. Liao Shi is not a businessman, but he is half a healer, although when he left the prison, he vowed not to practice medicine in this life, but this did not affect his ability to judge the effectiveness of medicinal materials, and to open a shop to sell medicine.

Because Liao Shi sells very expensive medicines, the shop rarely has repeat customers, but also because Liao Shi never sells fake medicines, he can gradually cultivate a group of stable customers. There are some people who are not short of money, but they don't care about the price of medicine, they pay attention to the essence of medicinal materials, and they don't want to take a course of medicine because of a fake and inferior cuò during the period, and the efficacy is greatly reduced. This is also the biggest difference between the medicinal herb business and other goods business, and it must not be improvised!

As a result, under the reputation of both price and quality, the ridiculously expensive "three or two pharmacies" in the Wupeng alley gradually became more and more famous. Those who are too expensive will generally not come back to patronize, and those little rich families who trust the quality of the three or two pharmacies will occasionally send people to come and see if the old man who sells medicine has gone home, he rented this shop, but did not open the door to make a living, isn't there a problem with the brain? So there must be something delayed, right?

To be honest, Liao Shi didn't think about coming back to continue selling medicine. He extended the lease of the shop for a long time, mainly because Lin Shan and Mo Ye lived in a nearby village. In case anything unusual happened to the child, he rushed back and could quickly fill the medicine he needed in the pharmacy - although he excelled in refining medicine, and even the utensils that were used to reserve medicines were fired, which was considered an exception in the world of craftsmanship. But some medicinal herbs are really not suitable for him to always carry with him, and follow him to sleep in the mountains and wilderness, and to be drenched in the rain and bumpy.

For example: snow silkworm crystal.

The snow silkworm is also a type of silkworm, and it gets its name not because it feeds on snow, but because of its toxicity. When this silkworm is still a larvae, it is crushed to take its body fluid, which can have a good effect of stopping bleeding and dampness, but if it is directly used on people, the human body cannot resist its toxicity.

When Liao Shi wandered in the mountains looking for medicine. In the herd of bison, there are bison who have been injured in the fight and like to rub against a plant, and after they have rubbed it. Even though there are external wounds on the body and bleeding, no vampire flies dare to get close to feed. This practice of relying on the sense of animals to discover new drugs is not the first time Liao Shi has done it, he has followed the herd for more than a month, and finally found the kind of plant that bison loves to rub. Those snow-white caterpillars.

Liao Shi has rich experience in refining medicine, and seeing that those white insects look pure and flawless, he does not dare to slack off in his heart, not to mention that the poison resistance of cattle is very different from that of the human body, and this kind of animal can be used to benefit something. It may not be suitable for the human body.

After multiple tests, Liao Shi came up with the results of the humoral toxin of snow silkworm larvae. Only bison seem to be able to withstand a little. Other chickens, pigs, dogs, and even horses are somewhat unaffordable, and smaller poultry mistakenly peck at the snow silkworm larvae for insects, or even poison them directly. But the eggs laid by the snow silkworm after it becomes an adult. Those small particles that are like fish roe, but far more crystal clear than fish roe, have just escaped from the body of the adult snow silkworm. Immediately crushed into liquid into medicine, for the human body, the toxin is almost negligible.

The biggest advantage of this medicine and herb is that it can increase the duration of the drug by covering it on the injured area, because the liquid is not purely water-based, but semi-oily.

However, because the process of taking this liquid medicine is too complicated, there is no way to make it ready to use for the time being, and there are already many alternative drugs in the world with similar medicinal properties to snow silkworm crystals, even if there is an injury in demand, there is no need to give up the difficulty, so Liao Shi just sealed a part of the snow silkworm crystal with a special method, and did not plan to continue researching, and almost forgot about it.

And this time, because of Lin Shan's injury, Liao Shi remembered the snow silkworm crystal for the first time.

If you apply a semi-oily liquid to a burn, it can be closer to the properties of human skin than water-based herbal liquids. Snow silkworm crystal also has a strong effect of hemostasis and dampness, and its drug preservation is longer, so Lin Shan can change the medicine less once a day, which is also very conducive to reducing the risk of his wound infection!

Unexpectedly, he once found that he had not given up for a while, but today, he may save someone's life with it, and Liao Shi's mood can't help but stir up. He diagnoses and saves people, all according to his mood, although when he came out of the prison, he said that coldly, but if it was when he was in a good mood, he would occasionally do good. However, for Lin Shan, Liao Shi did not act because of his mood, but because he was rare and urgent because he didn't want him to die, he tried his best to save him.

Therefore, Liao Shi, who was worried about the snow silkworm crystal, traveled day and night from Kyoto to his pharmacy that had been closed for several years, and it only took one day and one night. On the way, Liao Shi kept praying, hoping that the snow silkworm crystals coated with two pieces of paper and the number of more than 10,000 pieces of paper could hatch at least one thousandth of them after being stored in the pharmacy for several years! Hopefully, this wild insect will be tougher than the vitality of the silkworm!

But...... Standing at the door of his own pharmacy, Liao Shi suddenly became in trouble again, because he ran too quickly and didn't bring the key with him! After wandering around the Great Wind Ridge for several years, Liao Shidu almost forgot the purpose of the key, and even if he needed to stay in the hotel, few thieves expected to steal money from this thin and ugly old man, but he himself ended up with ease.

It's just that this relaxed habit now makes him a little worried. After turning around the door of the pharmacy a few times, Liao Shi didn't remember where the original owner of the shop lived. After hesitating a few more times, Liao Shi found a stone in a corner of the house, walked back to the door of the pharmacy, and smashed the lock on the door.

Violence is the most direct way to conquer, Liao Shi quickly smashed the lock open, entered the pharmacy, and didn't care that the door behind him was still open, the lock picking marks on the door were too eye-catching, he just buried his head in the dusty shop and rummaged through the cabinets.

He's like that. It's almost like being a thief, and it's still the kind of thief who steals in broad daylight, and needs to be described as "rampant" to describe his bad behavior.

Therefore, when Liao Shi used violence again and picked up a chair to smash open the box where he sealed the snow silkworm crystals, the noise caused by his two smashing the medicine shop had already attracted a few villagers who were carrying or holding hoes and pitchforks, blocked the door, and quickly tied him up and sent him to the county government hall.

In fact, the territory is close to the residents of the small towns on the border. should not have been so brave and knew etiquette. If this matter is left elsewhere, passing by and seeing that someone's house has been burglarized, the thief has not yet left. There will only be two outcomes: ignorance and on-the-spot punishment. But this part of Xingjia Village is a little special.

Because of the influence of the two state-level academies in the nearby county town, the children of several families in the nearby residents have gone to the academies and learned some national compilation knowledge. Even if most of these students just hold the edge of going to the academy to have a glorious point, so that they can make a living in the future. The face is a little better, and he does not have the great ambition of being promoted to the main academy and embarking on the ultimate scientific examination and entering the university, but some basic cultural knowledge in the academy can still be spread through guò, which has brought some positive effects on the people's livelihood.

Because of the indirect protection of this good atmosphere, Liao Shicai was saved from a painful beating. Shortly after Liao Shi was escorted to the county office. The original owner of the shop that rented him the shop had also rushed to hear the news. The image of Liao Shi, in the heart of the homeowner, is really hard to forget once remembered. So after listening to the description of the neighborhood, the owner of the house already knew where the thief was, and it was obviously the tenant who had not seen him for many years.

The landlord doesn't want to make a fuss about it, after all, he will continue to make money by renting out the house in the future. If you can not offend people, don't offend, while personally coming to the county government to exonerate Liao Shi. He also brought the deed with a very bright mind. Although Liao Shi did not carry his own copy of the house deed with him, as long as he checked his fingerprints, the matter was cleared.

The county government is not far from the Lizheng Academy in the county seat, and the county magistrate can often drink tea and interpret books with several academy masters, and he is quite influenced by the academy and is a person who cherishes the official reputation very much. Seeing that the old man in the hall was escorted by the townspeople, it was really a misunderstanding, and the county magistrate didn't make any more complicated regulations, so he made a decision and released him on the spot.

This toss really made Liao Shi a little anxious. He didn't feel the relief of the owner after the trouble, and the townspeople who misunderstood him were unhappy when they saw him, although the townspeople tied him up, it was really a good intention to act bravely, but there were still one or two people who took the initiative to apologize to Liao Shi, but this could not extinguish Liao Shi's anxiety at all, because the townspeople could not understand the root of his impatience.

Hurried back to the pharmacy, fortunately saw that the box containing the snow silkworm crystal was still there, Liao Shi held it, and didn't care whether the door lock of the shop was locked, in the surprised eyes of the original owner, he didn't say a word, turned around and left. Naturally, the owner of the house will not take advantage of Liao Shi's absence to sweep away the pharmacy.

Although most of the materials stored in the shop are high-grade medicinal materials, some of which may have been shelved for a long time and have lost their medicinal properties, but there are some special ones, such as deer antler velvet, tiger bones, musk, etc., which can be stored for a long time, and the weight is almost equal to the price of silver. But these things, in the eyes of drug dealers and knowledgeable people, are wealth, and in the eyes of ordinary people who do their duty, they will not be touched. This kind of consciously law-abiding virtue is not only caused by the collective edification of pure and good people, but also because of the fact that medicine is a taboo among the people.

Hoarding oil and food, no family has ever thought of hoarding medicine.

Looking at the rickety old man who was as thin as a piece of firewood, he walked as fast as a gust of wind, and disappeared in an instant, and the owner only hesitated, and it was too late to catch up. The owner sighed, looked inside the shop again, and was turned into a mess by the old man, the owner couldn't help but shake his head, cut off the intention of helping to clean up, closed the door, held the smashed lock, and prepared to go to the lock shop in the town to repair it.

The tenant may still come back, but I just hope that the next time he returns, he will remember to bring the keys.

After Liao Shi left his pharmacy, he hurried back to the inn where the horses were kept. Seeing that the customer who had just stayed in the hotel was about to leave in an instant, the innkeeper thought that he had served poorly and offended someone, so he hurriedly apologized and wanted to keep the guest.

Liao Shi didn't bother to explain anything, and took out a piece of silver, which was the size of an egg, and almost didn't flash the guy's eyes. The innkeeper held the silver ingot, his hands trembled slightly, and he watched the thin old man, who was not good-looking, even a little ugly, mounted his horse and galloped away, and it took him a long time to come to his senses: this guest really did not want to stay in the hotel. And he seemed to have forgotten to find him money - and he didn't say yes.

After leaving the town, Liao Shi rode straight into a mountain stream. He didn't immediately choose the road back because he still needed to collect some food for the snow silkworms in the mountains. Walking into the mountains and forests, looking at the greenery of the mountains, Liao Shi's heart relaxed a little. Fortunately, the season is late spring, and the leaves that snow silkworms love to eat should also grow very lushly! Liao Shi slowed down and searched for it in the greenery.

However, after searching for a moment, he gradually frowned. He was not an impatient person in the first place, but because he was anxious in his heart, it affected his feelings. And just as he frowned and sighed frequently. When he could only hold back his temperament and continue to search, he ran into two people. Because the county commander in the county seat is an official and fair, even the order of the ten miles and eight townships around the county seat is also good and stable. In the nearby mountains, there will be no cottages and rogue strongmen. But when Liao Shi saw these two people, he immediately waved the reins in his hand and wanted to dodge.

met two people of the same age. A boy of about fifteen or sixteen years old. And what really made Liao Shiwei afraid to avoid it was the young man on the left who was quite bookish. However, Liao Shi was still slower, and the scholarly boy only needed to look at Liao Shi to recognize him. To be precise, even if the image of Liao Shi is put in the eyes of a stranger, it is also unforgettable at a glance.

Liao Shi turned the horse's head to run. The young man behind him had already whipped his mount and ran after him.

"Pharmacist—"

Hearing this young and familiar voice, Liao Shi only felt like he had been cursed by someone poking his bones. However. When he thought of the purpose of this visit to the mountain stream, it was still important to get down to business, so he had to pick up the reins and stop the chase game. I watched the young man ride his horse to the front, and then turned around and came closer. Liao Shi had a cold face, and said in a somewhat stiff tone: "Why are you here?" ”

The two young men on horseback came to meet them. The one on the right is the son of Orion in Xingjia Village, who is actually Mo Ye's best playmate when he was a child: Xing Feng. The one on the left is Yan Guang's grandson Yan Xingzhi, who has followed Liao Shi in Dafeng Ling for several years, and his ability to follow the fart worm makes Liao Shi extremely headache.

If he sticks to it this time, it may not be easy to get rid of it, but if he comes with him on this trip, is it really appropriate? Liao Shi only pondered in his heart for a moment, and suddenly a burst of annoyance came up again.

In fact, a few years ago, Yan Xingzhi followed Liao Shi's footsteps closely, and he didn't want to do anything unfavorable to him, but he was very enthusiastic about worshipping him as a teacher. But this apprentice sent to the door, Liao Shi didn't want it. Liao Shi didn't think it was any good to accept apprentices, he was used to being alone, and he was happy to continue such a life.

If you think about it from another angle, no one in the medical world will recognize his medical skills, and if he accepts Yan Guang's old guy's only grandson as an apprentice at this time, not to mention that he has no place to put Yan Guang's face, with his reputation that has been ruined, don't stain Yan Xingzhi, a young man who is still new in the future. Regarding this matter, although Yan Xingzhi verbally said that he had asked his grandfather for approval, Liao Shi himself was not at ease, and always felt that Yan Guang would not be willing to trouble him.

But it's just so unfortunate that you can meet him in the depths of such a hard-to-find mountain stream! Liao Shi couldn't help but want to ask Providence, is Yan Xingzhi really the candidate who must be accepted as an apprentice in his fate?

Originally, when acquaintances met, they should say polite words such as "fortunate meeting" to each other, but Liao Shi came to such a sentence coldly, as if questioning, and there was obvious displeasure in his tone, but it was like seeing an enemy.

Fortunately, the person who walked with Yan Xingzhi today is Xing Feng, he has a simple nature, he has practiced martial arts in Shanshui Academy for several years, and with the solid foundation accumulated by his own hard work, he has built a lot of prestige among the children of martial arts. But he himself, in fact, is still not good at showing off on the shelf, and he just reveals his heart. Watching the strange old man speak unkindly to his friend, Xing Feng felt a little displeased, but he didn't have an immediate seizure. He calmed his heart, took a hook, patted the horse's belly, and walked to Yan Xingzhi's side.

Observing Liao Shi's face, Xing Feng was still silent, his eyes calm.

Yan Xingzhi has followed Liao Shi in Dafengling for several years, and has a good understanding of his temperament and character, and has long been accustomed to his style.

A person like Liao Shi just hangs a bad habit and temper on his face, so it can also be seen that the bad part of his character, the peak is just a cold mouth, but in fact, his heart is very simple. Yan Xingzhi had heard his grandfather relay early on, and Liao Shi had said for some reason: I will not treat diseases and save people in this life, but in the past few years in Dafengling, he has never seen Liao Shi do anything harmful. Although he rarely does anything to help the world, he also does not indifferently cut off that Cheng dù.

Facing Liao Shi's cold question, if others think about it carefully, they may understand that what he really wants to ask is not why the person in front of him is here, but is driving people away, which is equivalent to ordering "Why haven't you left yet". However, Yan Xingzhi smiled slightly, and said gently: "I went home to visit my mother, and when I had nothing to do, I went around the mountains and rivers around my hometown with my friends. ”

The answer ...... There are no flaws!

Liao Shi looked at Yan Xingzhi, slightly stunned, and didn't know what words to use to drive him away. Just as his throat was stuck, his eyes suddenly lit up again, and he patted his head and smiled: "I almost forgot, you can help!" ”
