Chapter 277: Go up the mountain to find medicine
Xue Rou rubbed her fingers, feeling a little anxious, but her face was very calm. Three days is too short, the antidote can be developed, but I don't know what kind of poison is among the villagers, even if the antidote is developed, it is not the same as it can cure their poison, otherwise why would there be different types of antidotes for so many different poisons.
Three days is really difficult for some strong people, but it can't be said that the villagers are too much. After all, their trust in the Leng family is zero now, and they are willing to give it another chance, and Xue Rou has won it, if they bargain on this again, not to mention whether the villagers are willing or not, it is said that the Leng family's good reputation for detoxification may be affected, after all, they have been in Wangjia Village for a long time.
Xue Roumo clenched her fingers and raised her eyes to look at the village chief, "This condition is okay, but I want to discuss it with my master, the village chief has no opinion, right?" ”
The village chief carefully observed Xue Rou's expression, and did not see that he was panicked, but he was neither humble nor arrogant, he looked very calm, and he did not lose his manners at this time.
Is it really not poison under the will of the cold weather? Why else aren't they afraid?
The village chief shook his head, what about him, he would see in three days. He is not afraid that Leng Tianyi will not agree to this condition, if he does not agree, they can drive the Leng family out of the village now, the town is very small, and everyone will know something. When the time comes, Leng Tianyi will not want to survive here anymore.
So the village chief waved his hand, "Go, Miss Xue, I'm waiting for your answer." Hope is not a rejection. ”
Xue Rou walked to Leng Tianyi's side with steps, looking calm, but her voice leaning into Leng Tianyi's ear was a little anxious, "Master, they asked us to develop an antidote within three days and cure the poison, otherwise they will take the rumors seriously." If they spread it casually outside, our Leng family won't be able to mix in the town. And just now they have already picked up all kinds of so-called weapons, if they are serious and want to retaliate, we may not be able to stop it? ”
"Master, what should I do? Say yes or no? ”
Leng Tianyi's face was calm, "Don't panic, Rou'er." Your master has not seen any strong winds and waves for so many years, so there is no need to panic because of this. ”
Xue Rou sighed, "But we can't guarantee three days of detoxification." What if it doesn't work? If you don't agree, you can't do it, isn't this difficult to ride a tiger? ”
Leng Tianyi hooked the corners of his lips indifferently, "Rou'er, you are still too young." Do you think that the choice is still in our hands now? It is clear that this group of people is just trying to play hooligans, whether they agree or not, they have enough reasons, and it is only us who suffer. If we don't agree, they can kick us out of the village now, and by the way, make the reputation of the Leng family stinky. If they promise that they can detoxify within three days, then they will detoxify for free, and I am afraid they will be very happy. If it can't be detoxified within three days, then the revenge on the Leng family will only be delayed for three days. ”
"Rou'er, now, do you think we still have the right to choose?"
Xue Rou sighed again, "Does Master mean to agree?" ”
Leng Tianyi patted the back of her hand, "Go Rou'er, don't be afraid." Tell them that the master agreed, but it was just a poison, but I wanted to see how many strange poisons there were in this world, and they could all be encountered by my cold providence? If that's the case, then it's worth dying. ”
Xue Rou glared at him, "Master is talking nonsense, what is not dead, it is unlucky to say it, don't say it in the future." ”
Leng Tianyi agreed with a smile.
Xue Rou walked over to the villagers and said, "Village Chief, I have discussed with my master and agree with your statement. ”
The village chief had long expected that they would definitely agree, so he didn't have any special reaction, just said, "Then say it, Miss Xue, if you can't develop an antidote within three days, then the Leng family will inevitably be ruined." ”
Xue Rou then added, "If we develop an antidote and cure the poison of the villagers, then we also ask that you apologize to us in public." ”
She observed the village chief's expression, "How is it, village chief?" That's not too much, right? ”
The village chief thought for a moment, if Leng Tianyi could really detoxify the villagers, apologizing would not be a big deal.
So he agreed, "What Miss Xue said also makes sense, if you can really cure the illness in our village, it is only natural to apologize." ”
Xue Rou said, "That's good." But let's talk about it first, our medicinal materials are still in the Leng family's mansion, and there are not so many medicinal materials in your village that can supply us with them. We're going to go back home and develop an antidote. ”
Some villagers were not convinced, "You go back to your home? The village chief, I can't promise them. ”
The village chief waved his hand, "Yes, Miss Xue, you can do your own thing." ”
He wasn't worried that they would run away, such a big Leng family was standing there, unless Leng Tianyi didn't want to develop here, he wouldn't run away like this. If he wanted to run, he wouldn't have made a three-day appointment.
The village chief looked up at the sky, "Miss Xue, it's almost noon, I think you should go back and develop the antidote quickly." By noon on the third day, we will come to the acceptance of the results. I hope you don't let us down. Especially the cold doctor. You're the famous doctor in our town. ”
The smell of gunpowder in his words was very strong, but Leng Tianyi didn't care much, "I will, village chief." So, let's go back first. ”
A few people went back to the hut to put things away and rushed back to the house, Wu Xiaozhu sat on the stone bench and chewed a piece of grass boringly, and when he saw someone coming, he hurriedly went up to greet him, "Master, Sister Xue, why are you back?" Didn't you say that you want to treat the people of Wangjia Village? ”
Xue Rou touched his head, "I rushed back with something, what's the matter, isn't the business in the shop good?" Why are you staying in the house? ”
Wu Xiaozhu pouted, "I'm just a junior apprentice, and our shop doesn't specialize in selling medicine, who wants to let me see a doctor like a half-asser?" Naturally, it was very deserted in the shop, so I came back. ”
Xue Rou sighed, "Xiaozhu, the next few days may be very busy. The poison in Wangjia Village is a little difficult to solve, and we told them that the antidote will be developed within three days, and you may have to go up the mountain to collect the medicine, and you will have to get busy. ”
Wu Xiaozhu laughed heavily, looking innocent, "Sister Xue, I'm not afraid of being busy, I'm just afraid that I have nothing to do." ”
Xue Rou rubbed his head and didn't say anything more.
In the next few days, the four people in the house who knew how to heal all day long in the house to develop the antidote, and even Yuan Junfeng grew up rapidly from the same half-hanger as Xiaozhu before.
Xue Rou laughed at him, "Now you can really be called Doctor Yuan." How's that, proud, right? ”
Yuan Junfeng also laughed back, "The woman sings with the husband." Naturally, I should be fully involved in what Rou'er likes. ”
Leng Tianyi coughed lightly, "What about developing an antidote, don't say anything else irrelevant to it." ”
He looked at the medicinal herbs in his hand and said, "I still lack a few medicinal herbs here, I'm afraid I'll have to go up the mountain to find them." Which of you goes? ”
Xue Rou raised her hand, "Master, I'll go." ”
Yuan Junfeng also followed closely, "Master, I'll go with Rou'er." ”
Huo Yun pondered for a few seconds and said, "No. Brother Yuan, you are good at martial arts, and you are strong in martial arts. He should stay in the house to protect the cold doctor. Although the agreement is made now, there is no guarantee that some radical ones will not come and do something, and as you can see, they were all armed with all kinds of weapons that day. If you want to do something secretly, we can't stop us. You still protect the cold god doctor in the house. ”
When Xue Rou heard this, she also felt a little worried, who knows if there will be radical people to retaliate, and it is true that Yuan Junfeng should be relieved to stay here.
"Yes, Brother Yuan. What Brother Huo said makes sense. We're just going up the mountain, it's no problem for Brother Huo to go with me, you can stay in the house to protect Master." ”
Yuan Junfeng heard everyone say this, so he had to agree.
Xue Rou said, "Master, you write down the medicinal materials you need, and Brother Huo and I will pack up and go up the mountain." I can only race against time to find medicinal herbs, and I still have to come back early. ”
Leng Tianyi nodded, "That's natural." ”
Xue Rou and Huo Yun changed into simple clothes, put on the back of the medicine collection, and went up the mountain like this.
Xue Rou walked in front with her back on her back, Huo Yun walked behind, Xue Rou was idle, and talked to Huo Yun, "Brother Huo, you usually go up the mountain to collect medicine when you are at home?" ”
Huo Yun didn't speak.
Xue Rou felt strange, so she looked back and found that Huo Yun was a lot behind her. She had to stop and wait for Huo Yun, but found that Huo Yun's feet were limping, as if it was inconvenient to walk.
When Huo Yun finally caught up, Xue Rou asked, "Brother Huo, what's wrong with your feet?" ”
Huo Yun said, "It's not a big deal, it's just that I accidentally got it." ”
Xue Rou said, "Huh? You've broken your foot, and you knew you shouldn't have been allowed to come, and if you climb a little more, you'll be swollen when you go back. That's okay, Brother Huo, can you just rest where you are, I'll go find the medicine, and then come back to you, and we'll go home together. ”
Huo Yun insisted on going up the mountain with her to find medicine, "I know where the medicine that Doctor Leng is looking for is, I saw it when I came up before." My feet are fine, let's go. I'll take you to find medicine. ”
Xue Rou persuaded him not to move, but he could only be helpless. It's just that they always support him by his side, and the two of them walk slowly.
Seeing that she was walking too slowly, Xue Rou was anxious, but she didn't show it. Huo Yun didn't mean it, she just broke her foot, she couldn't say anything like that, but she was still worried that there wasn't enough time.
When he arrived at the place where Huo Yun said, Huo Yun said, "Miss Xue, I found the medicinal herb in this piece before, let's look for it and see where it is hidden." ”
Xue Rou nodded, squatted down, and looked around, but she didn't find the kind of herb that Huo Yun said.
There were only weeds nearby, and there were no herbs at all. But time had passed minute by minute, and Xue Rou looked up at the change in the sky, anxious. Looking back, Huo Yun didn't know where he went.
