Chapter 137: The Gambling Contract
"When I get to Canterlot tomorrow, I'll take you to see if there's a suitable one."
Zhen Nianshuang felt that that thing should have been replaced a long time ago, and it would be nice if there was a weapon that could better play the advantages of the Ice Martial Soul.
Zhen Nianshuang became more and more curious about what kind of person her mother was, not only was she a mutated martial spirit, but even Donnie Yen, who was the same mother as her, was also a mutated martial spirit, or an ice martial soul with powerful attack power.
"Sister, I'm not talking about this, I always feel that someone is following us."
Donnie Yen pinched his sleeve, a little uneasy.
"Do you think too?"
Donnie Yen nodded silently.
And as they entered the city, they were followed.
Maybe my sister was outside the city before, and it wasn't a delusion.
Zhen Nianshuang was in this non-existent sight, and he couldn't detect malice.
But more, she couldn't see it.
"No, someone is really following us?"
Lu Qing took Zhen Nianshuang's arm and looked around.
It's just that her hands are suddenly a little cold.
Lu Qing strangely retracted his hand and kept himself warm.
Jin Yuan looked at Lu Qing's reaction and snorted coldly.
Resentment in the eyes.
Not only to prevent men, but also to prevent women.
Dark's expression remained unchanged.
Along the way, how many times he has seen this, he is used to it.
If you want to talk about the current appearance of the princess, it seems that she doesn't want the prince at all.
Secretly glanced at his master, but didn't dare to say.
Zhen Nianshuang didn't know that it was Jin Yuan and Dark One who followed her.
"Don't worry about it for now, wait and see what happens."
Just be vigilant, until now, they haven't done anything, have they?
"Well, that's all there is to it."
Lu Qing hugged herself, rubbed her arms to keep warm, and didn't dare to pick it up on Zhen Nianshuang.
Is it so cold today?
Lu Qing looked at the bright and warm sun above his head and was very incomprehensible.
"Let's go back first."
"Uh-huh."
In the parked carriage, Lu Wen didn't seem to have come back yet.
Not only that, but most people are like that.
"No, at this time, I'll go out for a walk, and I'll be back a long time ago!"
Lu Qing touched the back of his head.
"Something can't be wrong, let's take a look?"
There was nothing to do left and right, so Zhen Nianshuang agreed.
Taking advantage of the fact that no one was paying attention, he finally put the bronze sword back.
"Brother!"
Lu Wen turned around, a little surprised, why did this girl come?
"Why haven't you gone back yet, is something wrong?"
Lu Qing looked at it, and it didn't seem to be anything else.
"I'll buy some medicinal herbs, the ones in the city are not as good as the ones outside the city."
"So, have you picked it?"
"It's coming, it's coming!"
As soon as the words fell, Xiao Er rushed over with a stack of boxes.
It's just that the box is too high, no matter how careful Xiao Er is, the top box still falls.
The lid of the medicine was broken open, and a rich bitter medicinal fragrance entered Zhen Nianshuang's nasal cavity.
This medicine doesn't smell right.
Zhen Nianshuang walked over first and helped the little second pick up the box.
"Little Er, what kind of medicine is this?"
"Millennial larks."
Xiao Er is very proud, their pharmacy is relatively complete.
Larks.
Lark flowers are not uncommon, but there are fewer thousand-year-old ones.
It just so happened that there was a patch growing in her space.
However, the lark flower is warm and cool, and after being concocted into medicinal herbs, it has a very sweet taste, and the more the vintage, the sweeter the taste is stronger.
For thousands of years, it will have a refreshing fragrance.
The lark flower she smelled just now was obviously sweet with a hint of bitterness.
This kind of taste, as long as it is not faked by the store, that is, the herb itself is not a lark flower, but another medicinal property opposite it......
Relative to what?
Zhen Nianshuang couldn't remember it, the kind of flower in his memory didn't seem to be commonly used, because it was poisonous, and it was very similar to the lark flower......
Similar!
By the way, it's the Fog Spirit Flower.
Where this flower appears, there is a lark, and their difference is very subtle, the difference is that the calyx of the misty spirit flower is more slender, and the calyx of the lark is wider.
I'm afraid this is a fog spirit flower.
"Are you sure this is a lark?"
Xiao Er sent the rest of the boxes over, and when he heard Zhen Nianshuang talking like this, he immediately became angry: "You are questioning the credibility of our Hundred Medicine Hall!" ”
"I know that big stores like you pay attention to reputation, but you still have to take a good look at what it is in the end, maybe the difference between the medicinal materials is too small, and you don't see that you took it wrong."
Zhen Nianshuang didn't care about Xiao Er's anger either.
When she said this, Xiao Er's reaction couldn't be more normal.
"To be cautious, it's better to check."
Zhen Nianshuang's tone was calm and sincere.
Xiao Er is a little dog-eyed and looks down on people.
This girl is dressed plainly, her face is light, and there is only one servant, how can she have seen a thousand-year-old lark?
She must have said it to fool people!
He didn't believe it!
"Do you know what a millennium lark is? It's in this theory?! ”
Xiao Er's attitude is very bad.
Zhen Nianshuang looked at his clothes.
I just want to be low-key and ordinary, why do you cause trouble instead?
With such a roar, other customers in the pharmacy gathered around to watch the excitement.
Xiao Er instantly felt that he had a backing.
"Judges! This girl didn't say that what she had in her hand was not the thousand-year-old lark flower they wanted! I insist that we test it! Who believes this! ”
"Brother...... Miss Su, she won't do things that she is not sure of. ”
Lu Wen saw that the situation was a little serious, and he was just about to take the medicinal herbs, so forget it, if it is really like what Miss Su said, he will finally change it.
After all, more is better than less.
"You still believe her."
Lu Wen looked back at Lu Qing.
"She cured your illness, can I not believe it?"
Lu Qing was a little weak-hearted, it wasn't a disease, it was a charm.
But she can't say it now.
Besides, Nian Nian is not a person who takes the initiative to find trouble, there must be something wrong with the medicinal materials.
If she really went back and found out that something was wrong, what would her brother do?
After glancing at Su Yang and Yiyi, they were very calm, and Lu Qing strengthened his trust in Zhen Nianshuang.
"I prefer a more direct way, find someone to take a test, isn't it reassuring for everyone?"
"How can this girl be so sure?"
The shopkeepers gathered here and hurriedly came to check.
I just heard Zhen Nianshuang say to take a test.
"It's a coincidence, if it were other medicinal herbs, I wouldn't recognize it, but this just happened to be the one I've seen.
The shopkeeper also knows pharmacology, so he must know that this lark flower is very similar to a kind of flower, right? ”
"What is very similar to another flower, a lark is a lark, what's the problem?" The shopkeeper acted as if he didn't know, although he felt that he had forgotten something, he still directly refuted Zhen Nianshuang's words.
Zhen Nianshuang laughed: "Shopkeeper, think about it again?" ”
The shopkeeper still felt that he had forgotten something, and in the end he still didn't remember it.
"No is nothing, only larks."
"Looks like you still haven't remembered."
Zhen Nianshuang's tone was quite regretful.
"Don't mess around here! Test it! ”
"Shopkeeper, are you really here?"
Xiao Er felt that this was inappropriate.
"Am I the shopkeeper or are you the shopkeeper?"
Xiao Er shut up.
"But girl, no matter what the test results are, you have nothing to lose, and our credibility has suffered, so let's take a gamble?"
"How to bet?"
"If this is a lark flower, girl, you have to clarify it to everyone, and compensate the pharmacy for ten lark flowers."
Zhen Nianshuang understood, this was sure that they would win by themselves, so they would set her up.
"Oh, what about y'yourselves?"
"We've lost our reputation because of this, so we don't need anything, we're betting on reputation."
The spectators next to him whispered, and they all felt that it was unfair.
"This is the mind of a big pharmacy like yours? No, I don't think it's fair. ”
"After all, I'm a weak woman, penniless, and you still ask me for ten thousand-year-old lark flowers, which is killing me."
"And what do you want?"
It seems unreasonable to think about it this way.
Zhen Nianshuang thought about it, this is a pharmacy, and the last thing she lacks is medicine.
But Grandma Gu's inventory will also be free.
"Grandma Gu, take a look at the list of elixirs, what's missing?"
Grandma Gu opened her booklet, looked at the bright red strains behind a medicinal herb, and closed her eyes uncomfortably.
"Rain Ganoderma lucidum, preferably a hundred years old."
Grandma Gu is not hopeful, Yu Lingzhi is too difficult to grow, the environment is harsh, and there are few hundred years.
"A hundred years? Will it be too low? ”
Zhen Nianshuang felt incredible, as long as it was a hundred years?
"Rain Lingzhi is too difficult to grow, and a hundred years is already very cherished."
Then she understood.
"Do you have a hundred-year-old rain reishi?"
The shopkeeper wanted to retreat, I thought it was a shallow little girl, but I didn't expect to ask for such a rare thing as soon as I opened my mouth.
"Yes, but that's the treasure of this pharmacy, don't you think about it!"
Zhen Nianshuang lowered his head, unable to see clearly.
"You guys are bullies!"
Zhen Nianshuang took out a handkerchief, and tears came as soon as he said it.
"You gambled with my life, but you ...... But he refused to hand over the rain lingzhi! Besides, you're all so sure you're going to win, and now you're not willing, are you scared? ”
Zhen Nianshuang sobbed as he spoke, his tears flowed at a very technical level, he didn't have a confused face, only a few drops fell and dripped on the ground, which made people feel distressed when they saw it.
"This ......" the shopkeeper still hesitated.
"My sister who is dependent on me at home is looking forward to a rain lingzhi to save her life, otherwise where would I gamble with you?"
"Okay, bet on it."
Hearing this, the shopkeeper was relieved.
He confidently invited the master who was concocting medicinal materials in the back.
"Let's take a look, is this a thousand-year-old lark?"
The shopkeeper invited a middle-aged uncle who looked very energetic to come out with a respectful attitude.
"The master has been doing this for a long time, and it is most appropriate for him to do so."
The shopkeeper was not at ease, and finally said a word.
Zhen Nianshuang looked at the middle-aged uncle's calm breath, and after the shopkeeper finished speaking, he studied the appearance of medicinal materials, knowing that he might be a fanatic lover of elixir research, and his mind was very pure.
In the end, Zhen Nianshuang did not ask for a different person.
Everyone looked at this master and smelled it, looked at it carefully, and finally frowned, and they all held their breath.
