Gu Ye rummaged through the slices of chaihu, took out a piece from time to time, and gently put it under his nose to sniff. Suddenly, she took a piece of firewood, sniffed it carefully, and then put it on her tongue and licked it. Then, she showed the piece of firewood to Jiang Zhongtian.

Jiang Zhongtian learned from her, smelled it first, felt that the taste was wrong, and broke off a small piece, put it in his mouth and chewed it carefully. Suddenly, he spit out the dregs of medicine in his mouth, rushed outside and rinsed his mouth carefully with water, exclaiming, "Devil vine!" How can the devil vine be mixed into the chaihu!! ”

Gu Lier leaned over and took a closer look at the piece of "Chai Hu", frowned and said in surprise: "This looks no different from Chai Hu?" And what is the devil's vine? ”

"The devil's vine is dried and cut into slices, almost indistinguishable from Bupleurum chinensis. However, the taste of Bupleurum is pungent and bitter, while the devil's vine is bitter with astringency. It's hard to tell if you mix them up and don't pay attention! Jiang Zhongtian rummaged through the firewood. There are so many slices of bupleurum hu, if you want to taste them one by one, when will you have to taste them?

"Devil's Vine...... It sounds scary, but if you use it as a bupleurum medicine, what will be the consequences? Gu Lier had a faint bad premonition in her heart.

Jiang Zhongtian smiled bitterly and said, "Devil vine, highly poisonous!" Just this small piece can kill people......"

"Huh? That...... So what to do? When Gu Lier and Aunt Ying heard this, they couldn't help but lose their faces. If they remember correctly, there are two big bags in the pharmacy, and more than 100 catties of bupleurum slices.

In this pharmacy room, they have recently concocted wine-made chai hu and vinegar-baked chaihu, and they can be sent to Jimin Hall in bags just waiting for Gu Ye to take charge of the final drying step. If something goes wrong with this batch of chaihu, the Gu family's loss is not small!

"How did this devil vine get in? Will it be that when Jimintang sent the crude medicine, it was already ......" Ying Gu bit her lip. If that is the case, Jimin Tong is at fault, and all losses will be borne by Jimin Tang.

Gu Ye shook his head and said, "The devil vine is cut into slices, which is the same as the Bupleurum decoction piece. However, the appearance of this devil vine is still very different from the crude medicine of Bupleurum chinensis. Not to mention the experienced medicine collectors, even ordinary people can see it at a glance. So ......"

"So...... This devil vine must be in the Gu family, and someone deliberately mixed it into the firewood! Jiang Zhongtian waved his fist indignantly. He couldn't help but conspiracy theories, is there someone like Xinglintang who can't see Jimintang benefit from children's medicine, so he touched the Gu family and put the devil's vine in the Bupleurum decoction piece?

Gu Ye thought for a moment and asked, "No outsiders have been infiltrating the pharmaceutical room recently, right?" ”

Gu Li'er recalled carefully, shook her head affirmatively, and said, "When I and Aunt Ying, when we went to work, we never left the pharmacy room, and we never found anyone else entering. ”

The pharmacy room is considered the "forbidden place" of the Gu family, except for Gu Lier and Yinggu, Gu Ye and Jiang Zhongtian are allowed to enter. Even Widow Li and Li Xiuhong's mother and daughter, in order to avoid suspicion, stood outside the door when they delivered the medicine and asked Gu Lier to take them in.

At night, the doors and windows of the pharmacy are locked. Besides, with Ling Jiechen and his few men with strong martial arts, not to mention that someone sneaked in in the middle of the night, even if a fly flew in, it couldn't escape their eyes.

"Could it be...... That mother and daughter were bought? After a few days of contact with Gu Lier and Yinggu, Jiang Zhongtian was still relatively relieved about them, but he didn't dare to jump to conclusions about the two in the backyard.

"Probably not!" Gu Ye picked out another slice of the devil vine from the Bupleurum decoction piece. When Widow Li heard that they were going to open their workshop to Fucheng, she quietly came to inquire about her. What she meant was to let her daughter go to Fucheng with her and work for two years to earn some dowry money. She and her son stayed in Qingshan Village to serve the two acres of medicine fields.

Gu Ye promised that when he arrived in Fucheng, let these skilled workers take apprentices, not only double their wages, but also bring out one and reward them! Widow Li also told her daughter to work hard, how could she do such a thing that harmed others and was not beneficial to herself?

Someone bribed them? Widow Li and her daughter are both timid personalities, and if they do something wrong, they will show their feet in a few words. In recent days, they have not shown any signs of the problem.

"Who could that be? It can't be a mouse or a bobcat, right? Jiang Zhongtian said to himself.

Gu Ye's brows furrowed, she was worried that the Bupleurum decoction pieces in the warehouse were also mixed with such highly poisonous things. Who is it who drives out such unscrupulous immorality? Is it Jimintang's old enemy, or is it someone who is jealous of her family?

"Recently, has the Liu family come to our house?" Most of the villagers in Qingshan Village are simple and kind, and few of them can do this kind of poisoning method that can kill people. Thinking about it, the Liu family has a grudge against the Gu family, like her means!

"Nope!" "Didn't see ......," several people shook their heads.

Ling Juechen's eyes flickered slightly, and he suddenly spoke, "What about Xiao Zhuang?" Has he ever been in or out of the pharmacy room? ”

Hearing that the Gu family was going to move the family to Fucheng, Xiao Zhuang ran here more diligently, came over every day to eat and drink, and begged Gu Ming, asking him if he could not go? After the Gu family moved away, he had to resume the sad life of not being able to eat meat for two months.

For this, he cried several times! He also ran back to tell his father that he would pass on to the fifth grandfather with his brothers and sisters, and move to Fucheng to enjoy happiness together. was scolded by his father for "no conscience", and was beaten severely, and his buttocks were swollen for several days.

"Xiao Zhuang? He's only five years old! I don't know what the devil vine is, how can I know that it is poisonous......" Gu Ye's eyes froze, and he paused and said, "Brother Chen, what do you mean...... Liu used Xiao Zhuang to mix poison into my medicinal herbs? It's like the way she acts! ”

Liu's heart is black, otherwise he wouldn't want to starve the original owner to death, and threw her on the mountain to feed the wolves. A few days ago, she wanted to come and go, but Gu Ye dismissed her face, held a grudge, and used her son to go to and from the Gu family, and poisoned the medicine, which is also reasonable.

"That kid, I haven't been here to eat and drink for two days!" Ling Juechen said something suspicious. According to Xiao Zhuang's temperament, if no one detains him, it is impossible not to forget the Gu family. In the past two days, Gu Ye was so busy that he didn't pay attention to the little guy's movements.

Gu Ye's chest rose and fell violently, and she said to Jiang Zhongtian, who was still picking and picking one by one: "Don't pick it up!" This bag of firewood is unusable! "The devil's vine is very poisonous, and if there is a fish that slips through the net, it will be a big trouble. Losing a bag of firewood is nothing, even if you are afraid of storing hundreds of catties of firewood in the pharmacy, you will also be passive.
