Chapter 5 Delivery of Medicine

Today, when I arrived at the fairy cottage, I was about to go to the pharmacy to beat the medicinal herbs after bowing down with Yun Niang, but I was stopped by Yun Niang.

"You follow Shiso and pack these herbs." Yun Niang didn't look at me, but carried a fine brush and wrote the prescription smoothly.

"Oh." I nodded stunned and followed Shisu to the medicine cabinet on the side.

There is a clear division of labor here, it is Yun Niang who prescribes medicine, and there are two groups of people who grab the medicine and pack the herbs, everyone has their own place, and everything is in order.

This package of herbs is to wrap the medicine they grasped in a piece of yellow paper, and then tie it with a red rope, just like the pharmacy outside, one package at a time.

This kind of meticulous work, I got started very quickly, and Shiso was still teaching me to recognize medicinal materials from time to time, telling me that this is gastrodia, which can not only treat headaches, but also have analgesic and sedative effects.

That is catechu, peeled and dried decoction, with the effect of invigorating blood, in short, every medicine, she has passed the effect in my ear, very serious and meticulous to teach me.

And such a peaceful life, just so quietly passed for a month, if it weren't for Lingwu bringing me this month's thirty silver dollars, I wouldn't have realized that a month had passed like this.

I began to worry a little in my heart, I haven't been in touch with my uncle for a month, whether my uncle will worry about me, so I started to worry all day.

"Anzhi, Anzhi?" Even Shisu called me several times, but I didn't react, she could only raise her hand and pat me.

"What's wrong?" I stared blankly at Shiso.

Zi Su couldn't help but breathe: "An Zhi, what's wrong with you?" Soulless? ”

"It's okay, it's just, I miss my sister and uncle a little." I lowered my eyes and found that the medicine bag in front of me had been tied up into the shape of a zongzi, and I hurriedly untied it.

"You want to go out and see them?" Shiso asked, looking at me.

I nodded, but thinking about that Long Xuanling, he shouldn't let me go easily.

"It's not simple, there will be medicine boys sending medicine out every day, when the time comes, tell Yun Niang, wouldn't it be good to send you?" Shisu said disapprovingly.

As soon as I heard this, I immediately became excited: "This, this, this, is this okay?" Will Yun Niang let me go? ”

"I think, Yun Niang likes you very much, you beg her, she will agree." Shisu said with a smile.

I was a little hesitant, Yun Niang did let Zi Su take care of me all the time, but Yun Niang was an extremely quiet person, and she easily didn't speak, and I couldn't say anything about this kind of request.

"You want to deliver medicine?" Poria on the side listened, and immediately lowered her voice and said: "Then you can go for me, our people, except for you, have all sent medicine, and it will be my turn tomorrow, if you want to go, go for me." ”

"Really?" I blinked, overjoyed.

"Of course it's true, but the delivery time is two days at most, and you have to come back immediately." Poria said with a serious face.

Zi Su on the side insisted on telling Yun Niang, but Yun Niang didn't agree.

Shisu thought about it again and again, and turned a blind eye, which was regarded as helping me once.

And, for the sake of safety, she went with me to deliver medicine this time.

In order to hide from Long Xuanling, I also begged Lingwu, this Lingwu was reluctant at first, but seeing that I was depressed, I could only agree, but this is also conditional, that is, it must follow us.

It doesn't matter, the next day, Lingwu carried me and Zisu on his back, and when he arrived at the gate of this dragon city, Zisu took out the token to go out of the city, and the gatekeeper let us out.

As soon as they came out of this dragon city, the cold air retreated, and it was also late at night outside the city gate, and it was always at this time when they sent medicine to Zisu, in order not to attract the attention of others.

"Miss Shiso, where are you going this time?" Lingwu turned his face sideways and asked Shiso.

"Fuyang County, Linliu Lane, No. 81 Guo Family." Shisu said the specific location, and Lingwu pointed at the round head, flying higher and higher.

The cold wind blew across my cheeks, and I peeked down and realized that all I saw was clouds.

I couldn't help but ask Shiso: "Shisu, how do you deliver the medicine within two days?" ”

This distance is different, and the delivery time must be different.

"Retreat." Shisu replied without thinking.

"What? Retreat? I looked at Shiso suspiciously, not understanding what she meant.

"Anzhi, except for you, all the "people" in the fairy cottage are goblins turned into medicinal herbs, do you understand? For example, I am perilla, which is also a kind of medicinal herb, we have grown in the soil, and when we reach the ground, we can walk away. Shisu explained disappreciably.

My eyes widened in shock, but if I think about it carefully, this seems to be reasonable, that Dragon City can be said to be a "Yin City", how can it be inhabited by big living people.

It's no wonder, when I first worked in the cottage, everyone looked at me with extremely strange eyes, it turned out that they were all spirits!

"Sit tight, I'm going down." Lingwu's words interrupted my thoughts, and I clutched Lingwu's feathers tightly, his head swooping down.

Then it stopped in a pitch-black alley, and the appearance of Lingwu was afraid that it would frighten people, so it turned into a crow of ordinary size, and flew up the branches to watch us from afar.

"The speed of this Lingwu is really fast, when this medicine is delivered, we will go with you to see your sister." Shisu said as she looked up at the signs on the wooden doors around the alley.

Soon we found this eighty-one, this is still an old house, there is a lantern hanging at the door, Shisu stepped forward and patted the door gently, and soon someone came to open the door.

A thin man in his thirties poked his head out from behind the door with sleepy eyes, and looked at us suspiciously.

Shisu didn't wait for him to ask, so he said, "Send medicine!" ”

"Eh, please, two of you, please, our lord is waiting in the hall." As soon as the man finished speaking, he opened the door and welcomed us in.

Shiso told me that the time for each delivery of medicine was set in advance, so no matter how late the other party was, he would wait for us to come.

When I entered this mansion, my first impression was that there was an indescribable gloom in this place, there was a large pool in the front yard, and we went around the cloister to the front hall.

Sure enough, there was an old man with gray temples sitting in the hall, wandering back and forth in the swaying wax light.

"Master, the people from the cottage have come to deliver the medicine." The man who brought us in spoke to the old man.

When the old man heard this, he immediately turned his head to look at us.

"Ah, you brought the medicine?" The old man was so excited that his eyes widened, and his face looked a little hideous.
