- Holding chopsticks, he picked out a few full pieces of tea leaves from the teacup, spread them out 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 leaf and hung it 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 soon he frowned.

As he expected, the tea was extremely bitter, but the taste and what he had seen had led him to determine the category of the tea.

Smacking his lips, Liao Shi turned his gaze at the maid who was already full of doubts at this time, and asked: Is this tea from the gentleman for your son-in-law?

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

However, in the past six months, the imperial doctor, who was ostensibly expelled by the Taiyi Bureau, has also been idle and has nothing to do. Liao Shi heard that he really did the same thing that he was expelled three years ago, and with his excellent skills, he has now become a well-known drug dealer in the North.

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 she didn't know the imperial word in front of the title of imperial doctor, she had already followed the habits of the locals and changed her name to a divine doctor.

So when she heard Liao Shidi's inquiry at this time, the maid reacted very quickly and nodded immediately. But she soon became surprised again, and asked in a low voice: "Old man, the maidservant girl just saw you staring at this tea residue repeatedly. Is there something wrong with this tea?

No problem. Liao Shi didn't think that if he was willing to explain, this little girl would be able to understand, so he only perfunctory with three simple words, and then asked: How long has your son-in-law been drinking this kind of tea?

The confusion on the maid's face was even heavier. But she clearly felt that the old gentleman did not want to explain it to her, so she did not ask anything more, and only answered the question obediently: it has been about a month.

Liao Shi slowly raised his eyebrows. After a while, he relented, and then said, "You go and get the old wine."

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

Liao Shi was slightly stunned, and immediately understood, and couldn't help laughing: Why are you afraid of this? I just have something to say about your son-in-law, and I want to tell Chen Jiu directly that she is a close friend of your son-in-law. But you're not.

Oh... The handmaid will go now...... Wait a minute, old gentleman. The maid nodded repeatedly. At the same time, I secretly breathed a sigh of relief. I felt a little embarrassed, lowered my head and answered, and hurriedly trotted out.

Aged wine soon came. The first thing she saw when she entered the room was at the dining table. There was no forest cedar in the house, and Liao Shi did not sit at the table. Chen Jiu looked at Liao Shi, who seemed to be standing next to the charcoal stove in a daze, and asked in the first sentence: What happened to the pharmacist? Still not to your taste?

Liao Shi came back to his senses, shook his head and smiled: No, if I can't even get used to the dishes you make, then how can I be bought by you, and I 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 you 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?

Went to the study. A young man came just now, and seeing that he was covered in dirt, he should have walked a short distance, and handed over a box when he met...... Liao Shi didn't finish his words and stopped, and then said: It is true that I didn't quarrel him away.

Chen Jiu sighed secretly, and said, "What's 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, he shouldn't drink too much of this kind of strong tea, and his usual diet is still based on tonics, which you must pay attention to. Second, he just asked me for a medicine, in order to adjust the formula ratio, you need to observe some of his usual life information and give it to me, such as sleep time, diet amount, etc., and I will write you a list 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 was a little surprised, hesitated for a moment, and then said: It seems that he will take the initiative to ask me for medicine, and he can't bear it anymore.

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

It's probably about the drug. Recalling his conversation with Lin Shan just now, Liao Shi suddenly remembered something, and immediately asked: He went to see the female spy, do you know the details?

Chen Jiu nodded and said: I heard that the female spy has long been dead, and the body has been hidden under the bed for several days, and the bag containing the corpse is wrapped in three layers, and when it is opened, it has already begun to decompose.

No wonder, no wonder...... Liao Shi frowned slightly, you should also know that he now has three senses that are different from ordinary people, if he is allowed to 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.

Chen Jiu also frowned, and said: But I think what he reminded me earlier is not wrong, this matter is indeed not suitable for publicity, otherwise it will cause a lot of disadvantages to 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 very neatly arranged.

His gaze swept in. Quickly freeze on one of the bottles and take it out. After glancing at the character engraved on the bottom of the bottle, he handed the bottle to the aged wine and instructed: This medicine dulls the sense of taste. Give him one every day, so that he can eat for the next few days. But remember, don't give him the whole bottle, because the properties of this medicine are not yet fully equipped.

Hearing Liao Shi's words, he said the last half of the sentence. 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 life-saving straw and nodded at Liao Shi.

Although this medicine may cause some harm to people, Chen Jiu subconsciously felt that if Lin Shan's appetite could be improved and he could take more nourishing food, 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 Shiben didn't say the last half of the sentence too bluntly, and Chen Jiu wouldn't be flustered. But there is no way. Liao Shi would never lie about the potions he refined. Unless he simply doesn't want to show it to people to know.

However, in terms of the big picture, his style of acting is for a pharmacist. is competent. If he didn't say it at this time, Chen Jiu didn't know about the harm. It may be that Lin Shan's request to let go, causing Lin Shan's overdose.

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

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 words 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 last 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 again, 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 he find any good way to make him more comfortable?

I understand what you mean, but I'm also just a human being, 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 red rock blood ginseng was a medicinal ginseng containing toxins. But at the time, my inferences were only superficial and not thorough.

Regarding Liao Shi's statement, Chen Jiu felt quite surprised, and lost his voice: What is one-sided? The pharmacist waited for several years to harvest the red rock blood ginseng, but he still didn't understand the properties of this medicinal ginseng?

Liao Shi shook his head slowly and said: I went to that place because I heard that this kind of ginseng has miraculous effects, but when I went deeper into the people's statements, I realized that it was an exaggeration by the local people. Many people say that after taking that kind of ginseng, people will suddenly increase their strength, and their five senses will be sharp, as if they are channeled. At first, I thought it was a witch doctor confusing the crowd and preparing to leave, but unexpectedly, I ran into a plant, so I couldn't help but stop curiously. After living in the area for a while, I suddenly became interested in finding out again, because I thought that the blood ginseng and divine power that the people said were probably symptoms of poisoning.

Liao Shi has always liked to come into contact with poisons and study the nature of poisons, and people who have been in contact with him for a long time know about his strange hobby.

Looking at the old wine that appeared on his face for a while, Liao Shi paused for a moment before continuing: Many medicinal materials in nature are poisonous, and it is necessary to find a compound formula that matches them, so as to properly neutralize the toxicity and retain the beneficial medicinal properties to help people's diseases. It's just that time doesn't allow it, I was going to take the harvested Chiyan blood ginseng to find a secluded place to study it, but I didn't expect to feel the kid's abnormality as soon as I came down the mountain.

Hearing Liao Shi's words come to this point, the words that Chen Jiu had endured in his heart that he had not said gradually dissipated again.

Liao Shi originally wanted to say that he felt that he was being calculated by Lin Shan, but when these words came to his lips, he looked at the silent Chen Jiu, and suddenly collected this thought again.

Sitting back at the dining table, Liao Shi picked up his chopsticks, looked at a few dishes on the table that were still vivid although they had been back to the pot, and couldn't help but sigh: What a good stir-fry, I don't know how many times I will have a chance to eat it in the future.

Hearing Liao Shi's casual words, Chen Jiu kept his thoughts, smiled slightly and said: What is the pharmacist talking about, if you like it, the little woman is waiting for you at any time.

Having said this, her mind moved, and she said: In fact, San Lang often mentions you at the dinner table, saying that he doesn't know where you are drinking again.

Liao Shi coughed dryly, and muttered in a low voice: Stinky boy, you have no appetite for eating, so you know to take the old decay out and open it.

Chen Jiu couldn't help but laugh lightly when he heard this.

Munching and swallowing a few slices of spicy beef, Liao Shi glanced at the old wine, and suddenly said: Hun boy must not have told you yet, he is leaving here, right?

Chen Jiu's shallow smile suddenly froze a little on his face, and he said abruptly: Did he mention this to you just now?

Liao Shi didn't respond directly, but said indifferently: It turns out that you already know, and that kid has a little conscience.

Chen Jiu immediately shook his head and said, "No, he hasn't told me about it yet."

Liao Shi was stunned for a moment, and in an instant, he overturned what he had just said, and seemed to be a little annoyed: He is really a muddy boy with no conscience!

Maybe he's been too busy lately. Chen Jiu lowered his head slightly as he spoke.

When she first came to the Northland, she was still very uncomfortable with Liao Shi's style of acting. Facing Lin Shan, who was seriously injured and weak at the time, this strange old man still didn't seem to know the severity of the medicine. After his own actions, every change of dressing is like a robbery of the forest cedar. But the imperial doctor said that he would not be far away from interfering in the matter of changing the dressing, and she could only grit her teeth and watch from the sidelines. Although she couldn't help, she was even more reluctant to go far, she always felt that Liao Shi was dressed in impermanence black.

But after getting along for a period of time, I really understood Liao Shi's character, and this bad speculation was able to dissolve on its own. Many of Liao Shi's practices seem to be somewhat unreasonable at first glance, but once they have been tested by time, they can prove that the truth on which they are based is feasible.

As for Liao Shi himself, in addition to being good at poison, he has a withdrawn personality, and his appearance is indeed ugly in the eyes of ordinary people, but his heart is not bad. He basically doesn't accept external consultations, only cares about Lin Shan's needs, but he saved Lin Shan, a dying person who other doctors have no power to return to, three years ago, because of this credit, dozens of people in Lin Shan's party respect him.

Chen Jiu naturally had already changed his attitude towards Liao Shi, although she still didn't know what kind of relationship Lin Shan had with this old man as his uncle, but she could feel that in the details of many things, Liao Shi actually took care of Lin Shan's uncle.

And after getting along further, she also felt that Liao Shi actually had the intention of matching her with Lin Shan. This made her faintly happy, because if he was really a certain relative elder of Lin Shan, the words that came out of him must have a lot of weight. But at the same time, she felt a little embarrassed, if this was the case, how should she claim herself in front of Liao Shi? -
