Lin Ran brought back all the remaining craftsmen in the city from Liyang City, there were more than 1,000 people in total, seventy or eighty percent of them were senior craftsmen, and most of the rest were intermediate craftsmen, as for the low-cost craftsmen, there was no such thing as any of them, and the imperial court was still relatively strict in the selection of craftsmen.

However, without the escort of the Xiliang army this time, Lin Ran did not dare to leave Liyang City with these craftsmen for the time being, but first sent a message to the village, asking people to come over with the NPC troops of the village to relax and ensure that nothing went wrong. With so many craftsmen, other forces don't care who you are, and the influence of the Xiaobai Alliance has not yet extended to Liyang City.

When Lin Ran led the craftsmen in the craftsman workshop to wait for the NPC army from the small village to come over, Lin Ran found that there seemed to be a separate room on the east side of this courtyard.

The room was made of wood, with no windows, only a door, and was so tightly closed that it was impossible to see anything inside from the outside.

If you talk about it, this house is indeed everywhere outside, and it is not worth making a fuss at all, but in this craftsman's workshop, there are collective houses built by the government for these craftsmen to live in, and no one has a single room to enjoy?

Lin Ran asked a tall craftsman, "What is this room for?" Is it inhabited? “

The craftsman glanced at it and said, "This room is not for living, it is temporarily used to hoard medicinal materials when our military doctors and doctors make blood medicines." Hey, but it's a little strange, wasn't this door usually open before? This traditional Chinese medicine is different from other things, it needs to be dried naturally, why is it tightly closed today? “

The craftsman's words aroused Lin Ran's curiosity, so he stepped forward to the door of the small wooden house and observed.

The door was not locked on the outside, it was closed from the inside, and it seems that someone must have entered it now, and it must still be inside. But if it's a thief, what do you want to steal from this small cabin full of medicinal herbs? This herb is worthless. And locked yourself in this wooden house?

Lin Ran couldn't figure it out, so he simply stopped thinking about it, and directly kicked the door open, wanting to know something, and then he would be clear to the person in the door directly.

Many craftsmen also came over at this time, looked at this side curiously, and whispered something.

The door was kicked open, and the strong sunlight outside shone into the dark space of the cabin. After the door of this small cabin was closed, only a skylight on the roof could provide lighting, so the environment was relatively dark, and this time there was such a strong sunlight shining in, and the people in the house were illuminated by the strong light, and they screamed in surprise, and quickly covered their eyes with their hands.

"Who are you?" The man covered his eyes and asked loudly in the direction that Lin Ran and they came in, with a little surprise and anger in his tone.

The craftsmen beside Lin Ran all laughed, and the tall craftsman laughed angrily: "You are really interesting, this is the place where the medicinal materials are stacked in our craftsman's workshop, how did you sneak in?" That's what we should ask you. ”

The man in the cabin slowly adjusted to the strong sunlight outside the door, opened his eyes, and lowered his hand.

Lin Ran saw clearly, this person was a little old man with a goatee, and he looked like a good person, as long as he saw his eyes that were rolling up and down, it was obvious at a glance that this was a very slippery personality.

The little old man's eyes rolled up and down, and he said: "Well, I got lost here, and the weather was hot at noon, so I came to you to rest, and it just happened that there was a small house, so I came in." ”

Don't say it, this old man's face is not red when he tells lies, and he is very slippery, but no one believes what he said, and he is lost, this Liyang City is so big, so he got lost to us? And we're not stupid, looking at the table in front of you, there are obviously a lot of used herb residues, you're here specifically for this.

"Send him to the government." One of the craftsmen said, "Don't talk nonsense to this old fellow. ”

"It's just that at a glance, you can tell that this old guy is not a good thing, and it is certainly not a good thing to sneak here. Send him to the government. ”

The old man didn't care, just looked at the person in front of him, and stopped talking.

While the craftsmen were talking, Lin Ran noticed that in addition to some herbal residues, there were also some bottles and jars on the table in front of the old man.

"What is this?" Lin Ran reached over and wanted to take it and smell it, but the old man hugged these bottles in his arms and said nervously: "Don't touch my bottles!" Don't touch my stuff. ”

The craftsmen were furious, what are your things, this is obviously made by you stealing our herbs, and you dare to say it so justifiably!

The tall craftsman walked over and flipped the old man to the ground, several bottles rolled to the ground, the tall craftsman picked up the bottles, and sent them to Lin Ran as if to invite merit, and said, "General, please take a look." ”

"Give it back to me! Give it back! The little old man got angry and shouted at Lin Ran. But as soon as the tall craftsman glared at him, the little old man was immediately stunned, and said with a stiff head: "Look, just look." Well, be careful, don't break it. ”

Often the nemesis of shrewd people are those who are arrogant and unreasonable, and people don't listen to you at all, what's the use of what you can say with one mouth?

Lin Ran opened the cap of the bottle and shook the bottle, which was a clear green liquid, which rippled faintly when he shook it, and it looked even clearer and brighter under the sunlight, with a little olive color.

Put it under the nose and smell it, it is also a faint smell of Chinese herbs, a kind of herbal fragrance, but this fragrance is a little strange, and Lin Ran can't distinguish the smell of that kind of medicinal herbs.

However, it does not seem to be the smell of one herb, but a mixture of several herbs.

"What are you?" Lin Ran put the bottle on the table and asked.

The little old man got up, patted the herbs on his body, and said with a sneer: "It's nothing, it's just a little ordinary herb, to treat wind and cold." The most common kind of herb. ”

"Oh? Is that so? Lin Ran pondered for a moment, and said to the little old man with a smile: "Since it's just an ordinary wind chill, let's take a sip there." ”

When the little old man heard Lin Ran's words, his face turned green, and he waved his hand again and again, and said: "This wind and cold medicine, it is natural that you can only eat it if you are infected with wind and cold, I am very healthy now, why should I take this." ”

"Don't want to? Okay, I'll ask someone to drink it for you. Lin Ran said with a smile. (To be continued.) )
