"Dad, you go and cut down the tree, I'll look around, and if there are medicinal herbs, dig them back." Bai Qiuluo smiled and spoke.

"No, it's not safe, you just follow your father's side." Bai Zixin frowned.

"Oh, Dad, how can you be like a mother, worried about this and that, I'll take a look nearby, I won't go far, Dad, you can rest assured." Go get busy, and if you're done, call me. Bai Qiuluo said, carrying the basket on his back and drilling directly into the forest on the side.

Bai Zixin looked at her back and shook his head helplessly.

After Bai Qiuluo left Bai Zixin, he carefully observed along the road, but whenever he saw the herbs, he would carefully dig them down.

It is said that the ancestors of Xiaoxi Village fled here to escape the war, and after taking root, they have been farming for a living, so they naturally do not understand herbal medicine and the like.

The mountains behind Xiaoxi Village are lush and endless, and everyone only knows about hunting on weekdays, but they ignore these medicinal herbs, so even in the outer mountains, Bai Qiuluo has found a lot of herbs.

Bai Qiuluo dug up a lot of medicinal materials, a few of which are still precious medicinal materials, if they are sold to the medical center, they can also have a lot of income.

While she was calculating in her heart, she raised her hand to wipe her sweat.

When I looked around, I saw a purple light on the cliff not far away.

Bai Qiuluo's eyes flickered, thinking that he had seen something wrong, so he took a few steps towards the place where he had just seen the purple light.

I saw a small purple grass growing in the crack of the cliff, and three small bones emerged from the tip of the grass at this moment, which were gently swaying with the wind.

"Three violet orchids." Bai Qiuluo snorted softly, his eyes full of disbelief.

She never expected to encounter this legendary medicinal herb here!

It is rumored that these three purple orchids have long been annihilated in the long river of history, and no one has ever seen this medicinal material in modern times.

Bai Qiuluo has only seen relevant descriptions in ancient books.

This herb has an excellent effect on the growth and healing of bones, and now Nan Chu's feet are recovering slowly due to lack of nutrients, if he can have these three purple orchids into the medicine, he will definitely be able to speed up the recovery of his feet.

For a while, Bai Qiuluo's heart was moved, and she wanted to take off the three purple orchids.

After observing the environment around, Bai Qiuluo felt that things were not impossible, she gritted her teeth, and was about to step forward, but Bai Zixin's shout came from her ears.

"Autumn fall, autumn fall, where are you?"

Bai Qiuluo's steps slowed slightly, and his footsteps turned towards Bai Zixin's side.

As he walked, he shouted, "Dad, I'm here, I'll come to you." ”

Bai Qiuluo responded, but he was marking along the road with a sickle.

With Bai Zixin, he would definitely not allow her to pick the three purple orchids, after all, it was also dangerous to look over there, so she could only go back with him first, and then she would come back again.

"Didn't you, kid, just look around? In a blink of an eye, he ran away without a trace, don't you know the danger in the mountains? Bai Zixin looked at Bai Qiuluo, who was trotting towards him, and felt slightly relieved, but he couldn't help but scold him with a tiger face.

Bai Qiuluo was not afraid of him, he stuck out his tongue with a smile, and said mischievously: "No one in the village knows herbal medicine, and Old Man Hua is too lazy to come up to the mountain, but it is cheap for me, you see, I have found a lot of medicinal materials in this outer mountain." ”

Bai Qiuluo handed the basket to Bai Zixin as if offering a treasure, and said: "Don't underestimate these medicinal materials, how many of them are still precious medicinal materials, if they are sold, they can be exchanged for a lot of silver taels, and when the time comes, you can also buy some meat for Nan Chu to replenish your body." ”

Looking at Bai Qiuluo's satisfied smile, how could Bai Zixin be willing to be harsh? His greatest wish in this life is that his wife and daughter can live peacefully and happily, so he is reluctant to deprive her of a smile.

Helplessly, he sighed lightly: "Dad knows that you like medical skills and medicine, and he doesn't want to stop you from doing what you like, but you have to promise Dad that you must be careful when you come to the mountains to collect medicine, and you must not repeat what happened last time. ”

"Dad, don't worry, I understand. Besides, I forgot to pay attention last time and ran to the edge of the mountain before I encountered a wild boar, and I will be more careful in the future. Bai Qiuluo was overjoyed in his heart, but there was a serious guarantee on his face.

Bai Zixin patted her head and said, "Okay, it's not early, let's go back first, otherwise your mother should be worried." ”

"Hmm." Bai Qiuluo hurriedly responded, and followed Bai Zixin to the place where he cut down the tree.

"Dad, that's a lot." Bai Qiuluo followed Bai Zixin to the place, only to find that Bai Zixin had cut down two or three big trees and divided them into several sections, which could not be carried back today at all.

"Well, so much should be enough, bring one back today, and I'll carry it tomorrow." Bai Zixin replied and walked down the mountain with Bai Qiuluo.

They didn't notice that after they left, a slender figure flashed out from behind the tree, looking at the backs of the two walking away, frowning slightly.

Thinking of the conversation between the father and daughter, Jin Qing was a little puzzled.

Just now, the woman said Nan Chu, Nan Chu is the master's name, but the man said Nan Gongzi, but the master's surname is not Nan.

He had been sent out on a mission earlier, and when he returned, he learned that his master had gotten the news and went south alone.

When he got the news, he knew that it was not good, and it was not a day or two for the second son to want to harm the master's life, and it was really not a wise move for the master to leave Beijing alone without a secret guard.

But Jin Qing understands better that the only one who can make the master ignore it like this is the master mother.

Knowing that you can't do it, this is the master's temperament.

He hurried to the land south of the Yangtze River non-stop, and after many investigations, he found that the master finally appeared near this mountain.

He had been investigating the surroundings for several days, but there was still no news, and the conversation between Bai Zixin's father and daughter fell on his ears, and he did not hesitate to be in the turbulent waves.

It's just that there are not no people with the same name in this world, and besides, the surnames are different.

After thinking about it, Jin Qing still decided to follow behind the father and daughter to find out.

What if it's the master?

Jin Qing thought and dodged to follow.

Bai Qiuluo didn't know this, he talked and laughed with Bai Zixin all the way, and the two returned to the Bai family.

When the two arrived home, the last rays of sunlight also fell, and at the end of February, the weather was still very cold, and without the sun, it cooled faster.

After cleaning up and having dinner early, the Bai family went back to their rooms and went to sleep.

In the dead of night, the Bai family.

Shao Nanchu, who was originally lying on the bed and asleep, suddenly opened his eyes and raised his hand to the side of the bed.

"Master, it's me." Jin Qing was afraid that the sound of the fight would wake up the Bai family, so he hurriedly shouted in a low voice.

Shao Nanchu's palm immediately retracted, and his cold eyebrows fell on Jin Qing's body, and then he said slowly: "You are here." ”

"It's the uselessness of the subordinates, it took so long to find the master, the subordinates should be damned." Jin Qing fell to his knees with a puff, full of self-blame.

He came back with Bai Zixin's father and daughter in the afternoon and found that Shao Nanchu was in the Bai family, but it was not dark at that time, so it was not easy for him to come to find Shao Nanchu.

So the rest of the time, he went to inquire about the situation of Shao Nanchu and the Bai family.

Knowing that the master had broken a leg, Shao Nanchu blamed himself, if he had found the master earlier and sent the master back to Beijing for treatment, the master's leg might not have been broken.

"It's none of your business, it's me who was reckless, get up." Shao Nanchu didn't blame him, said lightly, and raised his hand to light the coal lamp next to the bed.

The dim light turned on, which also allowed him to see Jin Qing's appearance clearly at this time.

Jin Qing's eyes were blue, his face was tired, and his eyes were bloodshot, obviously he hadn't rested well because he was looking for him recently.

Shao Nanchu's face softened, and he said in a low voice: "Thank you for your hard work." ”

"The master is serious. Master's feet...... The subordinates will take the master away and go back to Beijing to find a famous doctor for treatment, and he will definitely cure the master's foot. Jin Qing said firmly.

Hearing that he was leaving, Shao Nanchu paused slightly, and couldn't help but think of Bai Qiuluo, and a trace of reluctance rose in his heart.

He pondered for a moment, and then said slowly: "Don't be in a hurry to leave, talk about the current situation in the capital." ”

Although Jin Qing came to find Shao Nanchu on this trip, as Shao Nanchu's confidant, after Shao Nanchu disappeared, he became the backbone, and he knew about the affairs in Beijing.

"You have been missing for a month, and the second son is now becoming more and more bold and arrogant, trying to meddle in the Shao family's industry, but the shopkeepers of each shop are personally trained by the master, and he can't succeed......" Jin Qing told him about the recent situation in the capital, and then quietly waited for Shao Nanchu's instructions.

"Don't spread the news of finding me first, just don't move, just take this opportunity to cleanse it." Shao Nanchu quickly made a decision.

"Isn't the master going back to Beijing? But your feet ......" Jin Qing also knew that Shao Nanchu's decision was right, but looking at Shao Nanchu's feet, he really couldn't be indifferent.

"My feet are fine, someone will help me, you just have to do what I tell me." Shao Nanchu interrupted him.

He didn't know why, he just believed Bai Qiuluo's words, since she said that it could be cured, then it would definitely be cured!

"Do you want to recuperate in another place? This Bai family is really poor. Jin Qing asked unrelentingly.

This time, Shao Nanchu didn't want to pay attention to him at all, glanced at him lightly, casually extinguished the coal lamp on the side, pulled the quilt and covered it, looking like he was going to sleep.

Jin Qing looked at Shao Nanchu's appearance and his eyes widened.

However, he had been following Shao Nanchu for a long time, and he could guess that Shao Nanchu was unhappy at this moment, so he didn't dare to say anything, and the figure disappeared from the room quietly.

When Jin Qing left, Shao Nanchu opened his eyes again.

Silently looking at the darkness in front of him, Shao Nanchu's expression was calm.

He knew that Jin Qing was right, the conditions of the Bai family were too poor, and it was difficult for him to eat alone, let alone recuperate for him.

But he just couldn't get up and leave.

A petite figure kept drilling into his mind, and when she said that she would reassure him that as long as he cooperated to heal his leg, the determination on his face and the bright light in his eyes couldn't help but replay in his mind.
