Chapter 243: An eye-opener

Residential area in the north of the city.

Su Bai sent Zhong Mei home and earnestly instructed, "Teacher Zhong, you wait for me for a while, and I'll go back when I go." ”

"Su Bai"

The little hand covered her cheek, and Zhong Mei stopped talking.

When the thief stabbed him with a fruit knife, it was so powerful that it almost pierced the flesh.

This means that the wound on Zhong Mei's face is already difficult to heal.

"Don't worry, I'm going to buy medicine, and I won't go far."

Su Bai smiled softly, wanting to give Zhong Mei some sense of security as much as possible.

A girl who worked so hard, in order to get rid of the shackles of the family, came to Beihai City alone to work hard, this kind of bitterness is difficult for ordinary people to understand.

Which Cheng thought that life had just taken a turn for the better, and then he encountered this kind of painful blow.

The collapse of her heart can be imagined.

"Anyway, you called me three good husbands, and I will definitely help you restore your appearance!" Su Bai gently patted Zhong Mei's little head, looking extremely spoiled, but Zhong Mei didn't speak, just buried her face deeper.

After walking out of the residential area, Su Bai dialed Li Chengming's mobile phone and told him the general situation.

With evidence in hand, Li Chengming naturally didn't dare to say anything, and directly approved Zhong Mei's leave and promised to deal with work-related injuries.

Afterwards, Su Bai went to the nearest medicinal herb shop nearby.

"Master, help me grab some medicine!"

Su Bai took out the prescriptions written in advance, which were recorded in ancient medical books and had a miraculous effect on the treatment of scars.

"You're not kidding, young man, are you? Are you sure this is the prescription? ”

An old man with gray hair and reading glasses held the prescription in front of his eyes and looked at it carefully.

It's just that after he finished reading it, he shook his head, and there was still an unhappy expression on his face, "Young man, I haven't heard much of your medicinal herbs!" And if you eat it this way, you'll eat the dead! ”

"You don't have any herbs in your prescription here?"

Su Bai frowned slightly, he had already known that he had asked Dai Pengyu to bring the medicinal materials over.

After all, I still have some stock.

"Don't say it's me! Even if there are medicinal herb shops in the entire north of the city, there are no medicinal materials on your prescription! ”

The old master put down the prescription and urged me to practice medicine for decades, what medicine have I not seen? Your prescription is simply fake, and the medicinal herbs on it are even more unheard of! Let's go, don't mess around here! ”

"Master, you can't say that, why don't you let me look in your shop and see if there are any medicinal materials I need!" Su Bai pursed his lips and said lightly.

Although this herb shop didn't have the medicinal herbs he wanted, Su Bai could settle for the next best thing and find other medicinal herbs instead.

Hearing this, the old master's face turned cold, and he suddenly stood up, "This is a medicinal herb shop!" Not a place for you to play! Make you a little doll

Find something here, what a system! ”

"To tell you the truth, I also own a medicinal herb shop! I also know some about medicinal materials, if you don't believe it, you can come to test me, if I answer a little wrong, leave immediately! Su Bai's gaze was firm, exuding an unquestionable taste.

"This"

The old master looked stunned, and when he saw Su Bai so confident, he subconsciously relieved, "Okay!" Since you've said so, I'm going to test you! ”

As he spoke, the master stepped aside and took out three white slices.

"If you can distinguish these three herbs, I'll let you find them in the store!" The master put the white slice on the table and said confidently.

Deep down in his heart, he didn't believe that Su Bai had an understanding of medicinal herbs at all.

Even more human, he could not distinguish between the three white slices.

But at this moment, the corners of Su Bai's mouth raised slightly, and he said lightly, "From left to right, they are yam, angelica, and smallpox pollen!" ”

Ga!

As soon as these words came out, the master's face suddenly froze.

"You're right, aren't you? If you have the ability, you can talk about the difference between them! The master couldn't believe it.

"That's good."

Su Bai shrugged his shoulders and said lightly, "Yam, potato plant slices, generally oblong, white in appearance, smooth and delicate, light in taste, sticky in chewing!" ”

"Angelica dahurica, round thick slices, gray-white appearance, bitter taste!"

"Smallpox pollen, similar in shape to yam, strong and pungent in taste!"

Every time Su Bai said a word, the master's eyes widened.

The horror in my heart is even more overflowing.

Because what he said was accurate, it was like a teacher preparing for a lesson, lecturing to students on stage.

Until the end, the master was speechless in shock.

He looked at Su Bai incredulously, and asked in a trembling voice, "Young man, I didn't expect you to know so much about medicinal herbs!" You really didn't lie to me! You just let go and find it, I won't stop you! ”

"Then thank you, master!" Su Bai grinned.

These medicinal materials, when he read the ancient medical books, had already memorized them all in his mind through the super memory pills.

Seeing these three white slices at this moment, it is natural that they can be easily distinguished.

Afterwards, Su Bai searched for an hour in the medicinal herb shop.

The hard work paid off, and the medicinal materials for removing scars were basically found by Su Bai.

"Master, I'm sorry for you."

Su Bai put away the medicinal herbs with satisfaction, and thanked the master, "I have one more request, I don't know if you can agree to me." ”

"Just say it, lad! If you need help, just ask! ”

After what happened just now, the old master obviously glanced at Su Bai, and there was an indescribable love for Su Bai in his heart.

At a young age, he can be proficient in medicinal materials and pharmacology, and maybe he grew up in a family of Chinese medicine.

"I want to borrow your Dan furnace to refine medicine, can it be convenient?"

When Su Bai said this, he was a little hesitant, after all, the Dan furnace for refining medicine was a personal item, and it was difficult for outsiders to touch it.

But the master agreed, "Even if you use it, I'm idle anyway, and I can't use this Dan furnace!" It just so happens that I also want to see your alchemy technique. ”

"Thank you, master."

Su Bai nodded, and after taking the Dan furnace, he put the medicinal herbs into it.

He originally wanted to extract the incense burner from the system's warehouse, but in order to save time, he gave up this idea.

During these two hours, the old master had been sitting beside Su Bai and found that his alchemy technique was very special.

After all, Su Bai's alchemy technique was also learned from ancient medical books.

Moreover, in order to save time, he also injected some internal qi to help the medicinal materials be refined into shape as soon as possible.

To outsiders, it is indeed very mysterious.

Two hours later, the master was almost speechless with excitement.

When Su Bai paid, he resolutely refused to accept it, claiming that he had been practicing medicine for decades, and this was the only way he had seen a real master.

Let his horizons become broader.

This is an intangible wealth, how dare the master accept Su Bai's money.

After a hurried farewell, Su Bai returned to Zhong Mei's home.

After going out for five or six hours, the other party estimated that he was in a hurry.

As soon as he arrived home, Su Bai found that the door was open.

"Has anyone been here?"

Su Bai frowned slightly and walked in the door.

In the living room, there was a middle-aged aunt in her fifties.

She was wearing a fluffy pink pajamas, her hair was curly, and her figure was bloated.

It's like a charter wife in a movie.

"Zhong Mei, it's not that I'm talking about you as a sister! If you don't go back to the Zhong family, what are you guilty of here? ”

The middle-aged aunt said in a tone of voice, "What women eat is youth rice, look at what you have become now?" It's better to listen to the words of the eldest lady and leave the house and go back to the Zhong family! ”

"Sister Liu, don't say it, I won't go back to the Zhong family!" Zhong Mei whispered, but her tone was full of unquestionable.

This month, the middle-aged aunt persuaded Zhong Mei three times.

Behind the seemingly concerning, he was actually instructed by Zhong Xing.

"That's right."

The middle-aged aunt's face was ugly, and she pouted and said, "Then I have to tell you something, the rent will rise next month." ”

"Ahh

Zhong Meiliu frowned slightly, and asked, "Sister Liu's rent has not just risen, why has it risen again?"

"Zhong Mei, you don't know it, Beihai City

The price is skyrocketing, and my sister has to eat, right? This kind of thing is not up to those of us who live at the bottom of society! The middle-aged aunt pretended to be embarrassed, but she was sneering in her heart

"Humph! If you don't have a house to live in, I don't think you can go back to Zhong's house with Zhong Dashao! ”

"Then how much does that go up," Zhong Mei worried.

"It's not much, it's only three thousand! For you high school teachers, you should be able to take it out casually! The middle-aged aunt stretched out three fingers and said disapprovingly.

But this number sounded like a bolt from the blue in Zhong Mei's ears.

She looked surprised and said, "Sister Liu, isn't your rent a little expensive, I really can't get so much money in a short period of time."

"Can't get it? If you can't get it, you can move out, anyway, the people who rent my house are in line, and I'm not bad for you! The middle-aged aunt glanced at Zhong Mei and said angrily.

"I" Zhong Mei was stunned.

"What am I, don't cry poor here!"

The middle-aged aunt scratched her curly hair and said impatiently, "If you can't get the money, let's leave quickly!" Besides, isn't Zhong Dashao also ready to go back to Zhong's house? You go back with him! When the time comes, eat and drink spicy food, and still have to worry about rent? ”

"This"

Zhong Mei instantly understood that what was the rent increase, what was for her sake, all were excuses.

All of this is actually Zhong Xing's ghost behind his back.

Perhaps, the miniature bugging device was also quietly installed by Sister Liu while she was not at home.

"I told you, I won't go back!" Zhong Mei's eyes were determined, and she refused.

"That's a good thing, you still don't agree?"

The middle-aged aunt glanced at Zhong Mei whitely, and she didn't have a good airway; "If I can go home with Zhong Dashao, I have to agree to anything! When you go back, you will have glory and wealth, endless money, no need to worry about life, and someone will serve you every day, how happy! It's paradise! ”
