Chapter 374: Pharmacy
Zhou Huanchun was naturally happy, looked at Wu Er, who didn't say anything rebuttal, and happily followed Zhou Lingmo into the inner room.
"Wow!" As soon as she entered the inner room, the expression on Zhou Huanchun's face changed from curiosity to surprise, she had never seen so many medicines, and the smile that cracked at the corner of her mouth seemed to have fallen into a honey pot.
From the outside, this pharmacy looks like a small two-story building, and I didn't expect it to be another world inside.
As soon as the curtain embroidered with flowers and plants was lifted, what fell into Zhou Huanchun's eyes were several large lattices standing up to the sky, and this layout reminded Zhou Huanchun of the library he had seen before crossing it. However, instead of books, there were jars full of herbs, most of which were clay pots, of various colors, and a ladder in the corner.
Before he had time to take a good look at the first shelf in front of him, Zhou Huanchun was called to his side by Zhou Lingmo.
"I personally brought you here today because I know that if I don't come forward in person, this Wu Er will never let you enter his inner room."
There was a pause.
"You can take out your hands in this pharmacy and let others choose something, right?" Zhou Lingmo looked at Wu Er, who was smiling behind them, and said softly.
"This ...... The eldest lady knows my rules here. Wu Er put his two hands in his sleeves, as if he felt a little cold.
Only then did Zhou Huanchun notice that the inner room seemed to be colder than the outside.
"Although most of the medicines are dry, I still don't like high temperatures, so I specially built this room to store those precious herbs." Wu Er shuddered when he saw Zhou Huanchun, and hurriedly explained.
"Over the years, have you still accepted patients here?" Zhou Lingmo suddenly asked.
"You're my last patient here." Hearing Zhou Lingmo's question, Wu Er suddenly put away the smile on his face and said.
"Hmm." Zhou Lingmo didn't say anything. "Could it be that people used to be treated here?"
Zhou Huanchun was surprised, this place looked completely like a pharmacy, and there was no trace of medical treatment.
But Wu Er and Zhou Lingmo no longer continued the topic, and Zhou Huanchun couldn't say anything.
After that, Wu Er kept following behind Zhou Huanchun and Zhou Lingmo, Zhou Lingmo occasionally pointed to the medicine on the shelf, and Wu Er went to take it down and put it at the door.
Zhou Huanchun remembered her book, and there was neither a label nor any mark on the jar, so she couldn't see what was in the jar for a while, so she had to follow Zhou Lingmo and look around in the room.
"Alright." Zhou Huanchun was looking at a small gourd bottle, and listened to Zhou Lingmo say.
"Come out." Hurriedly taking his eyes off the gourd bottle, Zhou Huanchun followed Zhou Lingmo out of the inner room.
"These pills are yours."
Just as he was thinking about how to mention to Wu Er, when he wanted to borrow a few books that he didn't borrow last time, he heard Zhou Lingmo say this.
At first, Zhou Huanchun didn't realize that Zhou Lingmo was talking to herself, but when she turned her head and saw Zhou Lingmo looking at her, she was suddenly stunned in place.
So many things, to her, are indescribable wealth!
"Give it to me?" Zhou Huanchun was stunned. "I'm not sick, why should I be given medicine?"
"The medicines on Wu Er's side are all in season, and they may not be there after this time." Zhou Lingmo looked like "do you want to love it".
"Then ......" Zhou Huanchun still couldn't figure out why he wanted to give himself these medicines that seemed to be very rare.
"Have you ever seen a person who really understands medicine and only reads books and doesn't personally treat people?" Zhou Lingmo didn't wait for Zhou Huanchun to say anything, so he continued, but this time he said it to Wu Er. "You haven't opened here for patients for so many years, so let's start picking up patients tomorrow."
Wu Er looked at Zhou Lingmo with a shocked expression.
"But...... Public...... Miss, didn't you say ...... back then?"
"That's all in the past, you take him now and start picking up patients."
Zhou Huanchun looked at Zhou Lingmo and then at Wu Er, her face full of puzzlement.
But at this time, Wu Er had already changed his usual greasy and shrewd appearance, and knelt in front of Zhou Lingmo with a "plop".
"Gongzi Xie is complete."
"Gong ...... Son? Zhou Huanchun couldn't understand the two in front of her.
"Get up." Zhou Lingmo's eyes twitched when he heard "Childe", but he quickly returned to normal, and pulled up Wu Er, who was crying because of his words.
"After so many years, you have also paid the price for what you have done before, when is the time for retribution, so be here." Zhou Lingmo is colorful.
"Gongzi Xie! Xie Gongzi! ”
When Zhou Huanchun followed Zhou Lingmo out of the pharmacy, Wu Er was still twitching at the door with red eyes.
As for Zhou Huanchun...... How complicated is in that heart, it is estimated that only she knows.
"Is Wu Er a doctor?"
Zhou Huanchun followed behind Zhou Lingmo, thinking about what happened in the pharmacy today, and finally couldn't help but ask Zhou Lingmo.
"Yes, he's probably the best doctor in Dayue." Zhou Lingmo's tone was heavy.
"Dayue? Wu Er is not from the North Branch? ”
"It's not." Slowing down his pace, Zhou Lingmo and Zhou Huanchun walked side by side.
He is much taller than Zhou Huanchun, and he is wearing a white dress, although he covers his face with a hood, his overall temperament is different from ordinary people at first glance.
Looking at Zhou Lingmo's shoulder next to him, Zhou Huanchun was about to realize that he was a man again.
"Wu Er was the first person I met in the North Branch that year."
remembered that when he and Yuezhi were almost frozen to death in the ice and snow, it was Wu Er's sudden appearance that gave the two of them hope, but at that time, Wu Er was still young.
"Even, it can be said that he is my savior." Zhou Lingmo said softly.
"A lifesaver?" Zhou Huanchun was puzzled, it seemed that Wu Er had done something wrong, and he was punished by Zhou Lingmo for so many years, and he couldn't practice medicine.
"We'll talk about the specifics later." Although Zhou Lingmo heard the doubts in Zhou Huanchun's mouth, she didn't choose to continue, everything in this is too complicated, where to start?
"Later?" Zhou Huanchun's voice sounded a little disappointed, she knew that Zhou Lingmo had a lot of secrets to hide from him, but he always had good reasons not to tell him about those things.
"Well, let's talk about it when you want to." Zhou Huanchun didn't ask any more questions, and the two walked side by side towards the inn.
"Miss." Yingluo seemed to have been waiting for Zhou Lingmo for a long time, and when she saw Zhou Lingmo and Zhou Huanchun coming back, she hurriedly greeted her.
"Something's wrong."
Zhou Lingmo heard Yingluo's words, and her pupils shrank.
"You go eat first." He hastily ordered Zhou Huanchun, and then followed Yingluoyou out.
"What's wrong?" Zhou Lingmo got into the carriage that Yingluo had already prepared, and he was thinking about Xuantian Sect's side. "Is it a matter from the Xuantian Sect?"
"No, it's a little accident." Yingluo's eyes hung down.
"Tiny? Xiaoxiao can do anything in this Fanyang City? Zhou Lingmo's hand clenched into a fist.
Things have exceeded their expectations.
"We are also very puzzled, so Yuezhi asked me to inform the master quickly."
The carriage drove all the way to the tea house.
Before the carriage was stable, Zhou Lingmo hurriedly jumped out of the carriage and asked the people waiting at the door of the tea house: "Yue Zhi, what happened to Xiaoxiao?" ”
Between his expressions, he was unhurried and extremely calm.
"Little poisoned." The man replied respectfully.
Poisoning again!
Zhou Lingmo didn't speak again, and walked directly to the tea house.
There is a guest room behind the tea house, and as soon as Zhou Lingmo entered the door of the guest room, he saw Xiao Xiao lying on the bed with an unknown life and death.
"Call Wu Erlai."
"Wu Er?" Yuezhi asked suspiciously. "Hasn't Wu Er not practiced medicine for many years?"
"It's okay, Wu Er has already picked up patients again from today." Zhou Lingmo explained to Yuezhi, but his hand reached out to his small wrist.
"His poisonous ......" The familiar pulse shocked Zhou Lingmo's heart.
The symptoms of the poison in the little one are the same as those of oneself!
This kind of poison ......
"I'm afraid I'm afraid I've been poisoned." Zhou Lingmo said calmly.
"What?" Yue Zhi exclaimed, the poison on Zhou Lingmo's body, that is a rare poison, how can ordinary people be hit?
Without thinking about it anymore, he held his small wrist with one hand and Zhou Lingmo's wrist with the other, and after a while, he took a step back suddenly, and the panic in his eyes was even more: "But the poison on Gongzi's body is the result of years of accumulation!" Xiaoxiao has never been out of the city in Fanyang City all these years, and I can guarantee the safety of the city! ”
He was absolutely sure, however, Xiao Xiao was indeed poisoned!
On the other side, Zhou Lingmo was silent on the side.
"The doctor here has already fed Xiaoxiao and drunk the medicinal soup and sealed his heart, and the poison will not endanger his life within three days, but I don't know what will happen after a long time." Yuezhi put the red pill in his hand on the side of the bed.
Zhou Lingmo still frowned and didn't speak.
I don't know what the poison is, and I can only forcibly suppress it by virtue of the characteristics of the poison on my body, which is why he has not been able to completely detoxify it for so many years, except for himself, he has not seen this poison on his own body in anyone, and now the small situation is exactly the same as his own when the poison just happened, can it be ......
Zhou Lingmo didn't dare to continue thinking about it.
"Is it at this juncture? Fan Yangcheng can't be saved? ”
"The hosts! Wu Er is here! With a greeting, outside the door was Wu Er, who hurriedly followed behind the little guy with a medicine box, and walked in directly.
"Childe, Tsukikore." Wu Er's face was very serious, and he saw Zhou Lingmo and Yue Zhi bowing separately.
"Today...... That's where you come. "Zhou Lingmo didn't know how to talk to Wu Er." Come in first. ”
The medicine box that Wu Er was carrying was still the one he used many years ago, Zhou Lingmo looked at the familiar medicine box, but he couldn't think about the past, many things that had happened recently were not under his control, and now it was naturally a small life that was the most important.
Skillfully took the small vein, and then, Wu Er took out the thickest of the silver needles in a row from his medicine box and pierced it directly into the small Tianling cover.
At the moment when the silver needle is inserted, the silver needle changes color at the moment.
Wu Er's face changed, and then he took out a small gourd from the medicine box, pulled out the stopper, pinched his little jaw with one hand and forced him to open his mouth, and poured the transparent potion in the gourd into his small mouth with the other hand.
"Stabilize his situation for the time being, there will be no big problem, fortunately, Yuezhi Gongzi has already given Xiaoxiao a red jade pill to stabilize his internal breath, and my Mingmu soup can also save his life, but he will not be able to exercise or have strenuous activities for the next three months."
Wu Er looked moved.
"His poison?" Zhou Lingmo spoke.
"Childe must want to ask, is the poison on Xiaoxiao's body the kind on Childe's body?" Wu Er calmly took Zhou Lingmo's words. "The little pulse is indeed very similar to the one on Childe's body, but ......"
Wu Er pulled out the pitch-black silver needle on his small forehead.
"The poison in Childe's body does not manifest itself in this way, and it takes a long time to be impregnated to take effect. The poison on Xiaoxiao's body is a poisonous gas called Baihua Remnant, because once it is released, the scope is too wide, and it is even easy to produce mutations, causing a large-scale plague ......"
When Wu Er said this, he suddenly paused, suddenly remembered something, his brows locked together, and he almost became a twist.
At this time, Zhou Lingmo had already reacted.
"Yuezhi, where did you find Xiaoxiao?"
"A stronghold in Yanliu Lane, but it's not Wen Niang's."
When Yue Zhi mentioned Yanliu Lane, Zhou Lingmo's expression changed.
"Yanliu Lane is the most densely populated place in Fanyang City!" Wu Er hurriedly said.
"Yue Zhi, you immediately send someone to inform the city lord of Fanyang City, Ling Hu Che, and ask him to block Yanliu Lane within an hour." When Zhou Lingmo heard the news, he hurriedly instructed Yue Zhi.
"This is the heaven of Fan Yang City...... It's going to change. ”
Taking a deep breath, Zhou Lingmo turned around and walked into the main room of the tea house, directly took a Yuezhi coat and changed it on, and carefully covered his face with a black silk, and swept out with a dodge.
At this time, Zhou Huanchun had just finished dinner and was watching the cooks stew chicken soup in the kitchen of the inn, when suddenly, the innkeeper rushed into the kitchen in a panic.
"Hey, shopkeeper Shen?" Zhou Huanchun rarely saw this shopkeeper come to the back kitchen, and was a little surprised.
He couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he saw that Zhou Huanchun was still watching the cooks stew soup.
"What's wrong with you, Shopkeeper Shen?" Zhou Huanchun noticed that his chubby forehead was covered with sweat, and she asked.
"Zhou Gongzi...... The eldest lady has orders, please come with me. Shen Zhang said to Zhou Huanchun breathlessly.
"Did something happen?" Zhou Huanchun spread her hands.
"I ...... I don't know, it's just that someone passed on the words of the eldest lady. ”
"Zhou Lingmo didn't come back in person?" Zhou Huanchun didn't know what was going on, so she had to go out of the kitchen with Boss Shen, after all, Zhou Lingmo told her that the innkeeper was trustworthy.
Boss Shen walked directly towards the underground warehouse, and in front of the stunned Zhou Huanchun, he opened the door of the secret room.
"Gongzi Zhou, the eldest lady said that there is a change in Fanyang City, please come to my secret room and hide for the night." Only then did Boss Shen relax.
"Has there been a change in Fanyang City?"
Zhou Huanchun, who had already stepped into the door of the secret room with one foot, heard this and withdrew his foot again.
"What happened to Fan Yangcheng? What about Zhou Lingmo? Why didn't he come back? ”
A series of questions, Zhou Huanchun asked Boss Shen to wipe the sweat from his forehead, which made him overwhelmed.
Actually, he is just a subordinate who guards the secret post of this inn, and he really doesn't know anything, Zhou Huanchun's questions are like cannons, and he can't answer them at all.
Wiping the sweat that flowed down his forehead again, Boss Shen smiled bitterly: "Gongzi Zhou...... This...... I really don't know. ”
Looking at him like this, Zhou Huanchun also understood a rough idea in her heart.
Fan Yangcheng has changed, it must have something to do with Zhou Lingmo!
She was firm in her thoughts, didn't care about the anxious Boss Shen behind her, went upstairs to change into the night clothes that Zhou Lingmo had given her in Xuantianzong before, wrapped the silk around her wrists, and rushed directly into the vast night through the window.
At the same time, Zhou Lingmo was squatting on the roof of the 100-year-old building.
The location of this hundred-year-old building is very good, you can overlook the whole Fanyang City, he listened to the noisy toast in the hundred-year-old building, and thought to himself that there must be a happy event in this hundred-year-old building today.
When he just left the tea house, Zhou Lingmo had already sent someone to inform the innkeeper and ordered him to bring Zhou Huanchun into the secret room, at least if he was not by her side tonight, he could ensure her safety.
It's a pity that Zhou Lingmo didn't expect that at this time, Zhou Huanchun was already flying around on the roof of Fanyang City in his night clothes.
He stared closely in the direction of Smoke Willow Lane, where the noise was even louder, and it sounded like Linghu Che had sent someone to block the street, which aroused the dissatisfaction of the guests in Smoke Willow Lane, and the noise came and went.
Staring at the sky above Yanliu Alley, Zhou Lingmo recalled.
According to Wu Er, the flowers in Xiaoxiao's body should have been transmitted through the air, but the symptoms of Xiaoxiao's poisoning were so obvious, which means that he inhaled a large amount of flowers and residual gas in a short period of time.
The city gate guards of Fanyang City immediately sent someone to inform the city lord after Yue Zhi learned that Xiao Xiao was poisoned, and it had already been closed, and it was speculated that the person who poisoned him should still be in Fan Yang City, and it was very likely that he was in Yanliu Lane.
On the other side, after Zhou Huanchun left the inn, she didn't know where she should go for a while, since she came to this Fan Yang City, she has only gone out a handful of times, she is not familiar with the road of Fan Yang City, but when she thinks that Zhou Lingmo may be in danger now......
"That's right." Zhou Huanchun remembered the Wu Er Pharmacy she went to today, her eyes lit up, and she ran directly in the direction of the pharmacy.
As for the pharmacy, Wu Er has already been sent back to his pharmacy, and Fan Yangcheng may now fall into an irretrievable situation due to the plague caused by the Hundred Flowers Remnant, after all, no one knows the power of the Hundred Flowers Remnant better than him.
Just when Wu Er was rummaging through the boxes and cabinets looking for medicinal materials, there were suddenly three eager hammer sounds of "dong dong dong" at the door.
Getting up and cautiously walking to the door, Wu Er frowned.
"Who is it?"
"It's me! Zhou Huanchun! Zhou Huanchun directly reported her name.
"Why did Childe's fake appearance come about?"
Although Wu Er didn't know Zhou Huanchun's identity as a woman, he knew that Zhou Lingmo was a man!
"It turned out to be my uncle." Wu Er is colored, open the door.
I saw Zhou Huanchun wearing a black night suit, but Wu Er saw at a glance that it was made of fine Xuantian wood.
"Uncle, what's the matter with being so late?"
"Wu Er, do you know where Zhou Lingmo is now?" Zhou Huanchun spoke very quickly.
Wu Er didn't know all the things between Zhou Lingmo and Zhou Huanchun, but through today's things in his pharmacy, I think that Gongzi attaches great importance to this uncle.
"Uncle, don't you know?" Wu Er asked.
"Know...... What the? What's going on? Zhou Huanchun saw that Wu Er really knew something, and became even more anxious.
"Uncle's secret guard in Fanyang City is highly poisonous, and I can't explain the strange poison for a while, in short, the entire Fanyang City is now facing the danger of the plague."
"The plague?" Zhou Huanchun was shocked. "Then where is Zhou Lingmo now?"
"I don't know about this, but you can go and ask Yuezhi Gongzi." Wu Er seems to have regarded himself as his own, although Zhou Huanchun doesn't know who the "Moon Knowing Son" in Wu Er's mouth is, but since he knows Zhou Lingmo's whereabouts, it must be someone close to Zhou Lingmo.
"Zhou Lingmo didn't take me to the residence of the Yuezhi Gongzi, and I am now worried about the safety of the child, so I asked Boss Wu to take me to find the Yuezhi Gongzi." Zhou Huanchun suddenly became polite and looked at Wu Er eagerly.
Looking at Zhou Huanchun's eyes, Wu Er noticed that something was wrong.
How can my aunt's eyes be like a woman this week?
"Aunt Zhou? You ......"
Zhou Huanchun reacted suddenly, she interrupted Wu Er, didn't give him a chance to continue asking, and went out directly.
"Boss Wu, hurry up, hurry!"
The footsteps hurriedly followed behind Wu Er, but in a moment, the two of them ran towards the tea house in the east of Fanyang City.
If you want to go to the tea house, you must pass by the centennial building in the center of the city.
Before, Zhou Huanchun had not been to this hundred-year-old building, but he had seen the roof of the hundred-year-old building from a distance in the window of the inn.
The hundred-year-old building is still singing and dancing tonight, but Zhou Huanchun is in the mood to mix in the excitement, so he hurriedly follows Wu Er.
As for Zhou Lingmo...... At this time, it is also the roof of the 100-year-old building.
Standing on the roof of the building, Zhou Lingmo's face moved: Hey, the person in the dark cotton jacket...... Isn't it Wu Er? Behind Wu Er, who was wearing a night suit, it was ......
Zhou Lingmo just glanced at it, and saw Wu Er and Zhou Huanchun passing downstairs.
"Shouldn't she be in the inn now? Why did you follow Wu Er here? Zhou Lingmo watched Zhou Huanchun and Wu Er walking towards the east of the city, and suddenly understood something in her heart.
Wu Er must have told Zhou Huanchun something!
He straightened up, and was about to jump down the hundred-year-old building to stop Zhou Huanchun, when he heard a loud noise in the distance.
"Boom!"
Immediately after that, there was the second sound.
Zhou Lingmo turned sharply to look in the direction where the voice came from, which was Yanliu Lane.
"Boom!"
Thirdly, an orange-red mushroom cloud appeared in the sky.
Zhou Lingmo looked in the direction of Zhou Huanchun and Wu Er, and then glanced at the side of Yanliu Lane, frowning.
The current situation can't afford him to delay a little!
