Originally, I thought that the pharmacy had been closed in the end, but when the two came, they saw that the store was an old couple, and they were collecting medicinal herbs, and after they walked in, they heard the old man scolding.

"This thief is really getting more and more excessive, how can he steal things one after another, and steal all the good medicinal materials in our pharmacy."

"But it's not, thinking that the other party must have stolen our medicinal materials in an emergency, then thinking that this time is even more ruthless, it seems that we really want to report to the official to deal with this matter, it's just crazy!"

Hearing the conversation between the old couple, Qi Ning and Li Ye glanced at each other, as if they had noticed something, and hurriedly walked in.

Qi Ning and Li Ye went in to take a look, no wonder they hadn't closed the door yet, because the ground was full of messed up medicinal herbs, and the other party looked very anxious.

"Old man, I'm here to help you, what happened, did someone steal your medicinal materials?"

The old man nodded: "No, it's the fourth time, originally it was a little bit of stealing in the past, but this time it was a lot of empty, you said that we will do this business in the future." ”

Qi Ning asked anxiously: "Then dare to ask the old gentleman, what kind of medicinal materials are you missing?" ”

The old man thought for a while and replied: "I will lose some angelica and jujube bark before, sometimes there will be Han Sanqi, this time the thief stole all our amber, and the precious Han Sanqi was also taken away, I really don't know if this other party can't survive or what, take it away, how will we open a pharmacy in the future." ”

Li Ye didn't know much about these medicinal materials, but seeing Qi Ning's expression as if he had understood everything, he also stepped forward to help, and then took out a gold ingot and put it in the old man's hand.

"Old man, this money is enough for you to make up for all the medicinal materials, don't think about this matter, maybe the other party is just helpless."

The old couple cried excitedly, how dare they ask him for so much gold, and hurriedly shook their heads: "This is too valuable, we can't earn it for a year." ”

Qi Ning said gratefully: "This is what the two of you deserve, because you are kind-hearted, even if you lost the medicinal materials, you never said it in the town, and you didn't go to report it to the official, because you thought that the person who stole the medicinal materials was seriously injured, thank you." ”

The two of them didn't understand much, but Qi Ning was very grateful to them, and she finally understood now that they couldn't find a prescription at all, because Helian Lei and they shouldn't have any silver on them, and they didn't dare to come out openly during the day.

This is also the reason why no one has seen them in the entire town, because they are afraid of being hunted down, so they have been hiding somewhere, and Qi Ning has always felt sad.

Li Ye also saw Qi Ning's thoughts, and the two helped the old man clean up the pharmacy, and asked about the situation, and then asked the old man to continue to keep it secret, and then looked for it according to the inference.

"Husband, there are eyebrows, this is the medicinal material for treating knife wounds, and if we have to take all the medicinal materials, the situation must be very serious, so we went to find it overnight."

Li Ye nodded, and his heart was also nervous: "Ning'er, if you judge correctly, then we will go find it now." ”

"Now that the weather is cold, the medicinal herbs they take away will have a very strong smell, and it just so happened that Master learned how to find the smell, so we will look for it according to this smell."

Qi Ning said, he has already begun to discern the direction, and the skills he learned from Saihuatuo should also come in handy here.

Li Ye couldn't help but boast: "My Ning'er is really omnipotent, it seems that wherever I go in the future, I really have to take you with me." ”

"According to what you say, husband, I will have to follow you all the time in the future." Saying that, Qi Ning recognized the smell: "Husband, go this way." ”

It was pitch black now, and they couldn't see their fingers, so as not to attract attention, the two of them didn't even light a torch, but moved forward with the thin moonlight.

And Li Ye held a sword in his hand to lead the way, so as not to make Qi Ning stumble.

Following the scent, the two came to the hillside behind the town, where there was no grass and bare everywhere in winter, and at night they saw the dead trees, like ghost hands with teeth and claws.

Qi Ning was still a little scared, Li Ye held her hand tightly and continued to move forward, if it weren't for this smell remaining in the air, Qi Ning wouldn't have been able to find here.

"Husband, fortunately, this time they took more medicinal materials, so the smell remaining in the air will be stronger, we are right to come at night, if the sun comes out during the day, there will be more people, and it will be impossible to detect this smell at all."

Li Ye admired her, in the past, she just thought that Qi Ning was smart and capable, but now she is a character she admires.

"Hearing you say this, I feel comfortable, Ning'er, you still go to open a school in the future, and teach me this stupid disciple when the time comes."

"Husband, don't praise me, the smell is getting stronger and stronger, and I even smell the smell of decoction, I dare to conclude that they are nearby."

Qi Ning asked Li Ye to slow down his footsteps, and then the two of them secretly searched nearby, the terrain here is not easy to walk, and there are slopes everywhere, and some are stone caves, now Qi Ning suspects that they must be in these stone caves.

It's just that the two of them looked around the nearby stone cave, but there was still no result, but the smell was obviously still there, which made Qi Ning begin to ponder.

"Ning'er, even I can smell this smell, but there is no one in the cave here, what can I do."

Qi Ning thought of something: "I understand, it is very likely that they are just decocting medicine here, not living here, because they are afraid that the smell will be smelled, so they will be caught, but they must be nearby." ”

Li Ye also agrees with this statement, especially at such a critical juncture, if you are caught because of the smell, it will be troublesome, and it is very likely that they will do the same.

Li Ye looked around the dark surroundings, judging by the direction, and finally pointed ahead: "Ning'er, let's look east, this side is more sunny and better for the injured." ”

Qi Ning nodded, only hoping to find it, mainly because she was worried that Helian Lei's body could no longer hold on, so she took a deep breath and walked hand in hand with Li Ye.

The two of them had been walking for about half an hour, and they faintly heard the crying, and the feeling of being surrounded by rocks and dead trees in such a dark night made people feel very frightened.

Li Ye showed a relieved smile and said anxiously: "Ning'er, this is the voice of the princess, they are in front." ”

When he heard this, Qi Ning felt that all the efforts were worth it, and the two of them continued to move forward with this desperate and desolate voice, making sure to find them.

The two of them continued to follow the sound, and finally stopped in front of a very hidden cave, from which the sound came from.
