The weather at the end of May has begun to be hot, and at this time, there are two small figures busy digging on the ground halfway up the mountain. From time to time, straighten up to look at what has been dug out of the ground, and then continue to bend down to dig. The basket next to the two men was already half filled with the tendrils.

"Miss, are these rehmannia and sophora also valuable medicines?" After digging out a bitter ginseng, the fish looked up and asked Xi Ningyu.

"Well, it's okay. This medicine is used to clear heat and dehumidify some skin conditions. Xi Ningyu replied busily.

"Oh, what about this rehmannia rehmannia?" The fish then asked.

"Cooked land can be used for kidney yin deficiency, waist and knee soreness, tinnitus and dizziness, menstrual irregularities and other symptoms, oh, and. This medicine can also be used to quench thirst! Xi Ningyu raised her head, straightened her waist, and sat next to her to rest.

At this time, a few swaying figures walked out of the dense forest a little farther away from Xi Ningyu and Yu'er's digging positions, looking at the appearance of several people wearing black clothes, and even their heads were half-covered. Stains of blood were clearly visible from the exposed half of the face and palms, as well as the blood-stained lining of the cracks in the black clothes.

"Atractylodes, how are you? Hold on a little longer, and I remember that there was a small town near the mountain. If you keep going, you'll be able to find the doctor when you get to town. One of the men in black said with an anxious tone.

"Hmm~~~Hmm." A muffled answer came from the mouth of the man who was being supported by several people.

The rest of the black-clothed men surrounded the man named Cangshu, looking around with anxious eyes, as if they were on guard against something. At this time, one of the men in black tapped the other person next to him and said, "Hey, Moying! You look there, there seem to be people. ”

"Go and check who it is, if it's a mountain woodcutter, stop by to find out the way down the mountain, as well as the specific direction of the county. Just go! The man named Moying turned his head and commanded.

"Yes!"

The black-clothed man who had been ordered sensitively avoided the obstacles in the mountains and forests and approached the place where Xi Ningyu was, and his nimble skills did not make any unnecessary noise. After a few jumps, he sneaked to the back of a mountain rock behind Xi Ningyu, and poked his head out to look at the two little girls in front of him.

Looking at the busy appearance of the people in front of him, a trace of doubt flashed in the eyes of the man in black, but seeing that the two children felt that there was no danger, they appeared and planned to ask how to go down the mountain. As a result, as soon as he flashed out, he heard ......

"Ah~~~~~~~h Miss, someone! The fish's shout startled the birds in the mountains and forests and flew into the air in an instant.

Xi Ningyu, who was also frightened by the screams of the fish, raised his head and looked at the fish behind him inexplicably, his eyes straightened, and he pointed to the fish behind him, and immediately reflected, turned his head and looked back.

"Two girls, don't be afraid. I'm not a bad person, I just want to inquire about the mountain path down the mountain......" It was not only Xi Ningyu and the birds in the forest who were frightened by the screams of the fish, but the man in black was also trembling by the voice.

"Nonsense...... You seem to be a good person there, is there such a good person as you suddenly appeared and scared? Also, I haven't seen a good guy wear black in broad daylight. You don't look like a good person no matter how you look at it!! Yu'er protected Xi Ningyu behind him, stared at the man in black and shouted.

"......" The man in black who was stunned by the roar was speechless.

"Puff~~~" Xi Ningyu looked at the man in black who was choked and speechless by the fish, and suddenly became happy.

Maybe this man in black is not a good person, but Xi Ningyu saw that this person had not done anything to hurt the two of them so far. I understood that this was not coming at me, so I let down my guard and laughed.

The man in black, who had been relieved for a long time, arched his hand and saluted and said, "It's reckless and startling the two of you, I just want to inquire about how to go down the mountain." The two girls should not panic. ”

Xi Ningyu carefully looked at the man in front of him who was wearing a night suit at this time, and heard that the voice was a young man. I just don't know why I was covered in blood, and then I looked at the tattered body and a few bloody scars. It looked like it had been left after a fierce fight, and judging by the extent of the blood crust clotting, it probably had been left the night before.

So Xi Ningyu opened his mouth and asked, "The way down the mountain is the one over there, just follow the way." However, I see that you have injuries on your body, so it's better to deal with them first and be in a hurry. ”

"Thank you, little girl, my injury is out of the way. I just dare to ask the girl, is there a town under the mountain, and is there a doctor with better medical skills in the town? The man in black asked eagerly.

"Well, there's a town. The doctor at Renxintang Pharmacy heard that the medical skills were fine. Xi Ningyu replied.

"So, thank you girl!" The man in black clenched his fists again and thanked him, then turned to leave.

Looking at the black-clothed mermaid who walked away, he patted his chest and gasped: "Really, it suddenly appeared and scared the souls of people almost out!" I hate this guy so much. ”

"I think you're scaring everyone's souls to death!" Xi Ningyu teased her with a mocking glance at the fish's nose.

"Nothing." A thin flush rose on the fish's face.

After this toss, Xi Ningyu and Yu'er also packed up the medicinal materials they had dug up and turned back to the old house.

At the beginning of June, Xi Ningyu, who had come back from collecting medicinal herbs from the mountains and forests last time, had concocted it again and brought the fish to Renxin Hall. Seeing that Shi Hanxue was diagnosing people's pulses, he put the basket next to the medicine cabinet and watched the patients coming in and out of the Renxin Hall.

Xi Ningyu has not made a fortune after almost two months of collecting and selling medicines. But he has also accumulated nearly fifty taels of silver, which is already enough to support a family of five for five or six years in an ordinary person's family. If it is placed in a village outside the town, it is enough to build two new houses, and then marry a daughter-in-law, and there is still a leftover.

"Feather girl. The last time the medicinal herbs were almost used, and I was still thinking about going to your house to ask for medicine when I didn't see you again! Doctor Shi, who had treated two more patients, got up and said to Xi Ningyu.

"Hee-hee~~ Most of the medicinal materials that Dr. Shi used a while ago have passed the picking time. This time, I brought a few other medicinal herbs for you to see, and He Shou Wu also brought a lot. Xi Ningyu said to Doctor Shi with a smile.

"Oh~ There are new medicinal materials, then I'll take a look!" Doctor Shi took the basket with his own hands and looked through the medicinal materials concocted inside.

At this time, two men in gray walked in from outside the door of the pharmacy. One of them saw that Xi Ningyu and Yu'er were settled, hesitated, but walked over and bowed his hand and said, "Girl, thank you for showing you the way last time." ”

"Well, big brother doesn't have to be polite. It's just convenient for others and for your own convenience, and you should not be thanked. Xi Ningyu turned his head and saw that his voice was somewhat familiar, and he remembered the man in black on the mountain two days ago. So he replied in return.

"You two know each other?" At this time, after seeing the medicinal herbs and asking the guy to weigh them, he turned around and saw Xi Ningyu talking to the man in gray, so he interjected and asked.

"Sir, this is the girl I said who showed us the way down the mountain and told the girl who came to Renxin Hall to see the wounded," said the man in gray.

"In this way, isn't the feather girl a life-saving grace for you! Hahahaha," Shi Hanxue said with a smile.

"Help? Dr. Shi. I saw that this eldest brother was not seriously injured to the point of endangering his life last time, could it be that you deliberately tricked people into money and diagnosed the wrong injury? Xi Ningyu was a little strange how to talk about his life, and by the way, he blackened Doctor Shi.

"You...... You crazy girl......" Shi Hanxue was so angry that his face suddenly darkened. But he helplessly pointed at Xi Ningyu and smiled angrily.

The two gray-clothed men next to "......" were also speechless, as if they hadn't heard the second half of Xi Ningyu's sentence.

"This feather girl, in the shadow of the next stranger. Courteous! At this time, the two gray-clothed men who had not spoken stood up and introduced themselves.

"Doctor Shi is right, you did save our companion last time. Because one of us was seriously injured at that time, if you hadn't shown me the way down the mountain as soon as possible before I could have time for the doctor to save us, otherwise my companion would have died! So thank you again girl. Mo Ying said again.

"Brother Moying doesn't need to say thank you, as the so-called life is as big as the sky. I can help save people's lives and accumulate virtue for myself, but I don't know that Brother Moying's companions are better now? Xi Ningyu said generously after returning the salute, and asked the injured with concern. It makes people feel good.

"This ...... Speaking of which, there's another thing to ask Yu girl.,It's just like you're here.。 Doctor Shi listened to Xi Ningyu ask, and the injured man said with a little depression on his face.

"Oh, Dr. Shi said yes. As long as I can help, I will not shirk it! ”

"That's right, because the injured person is seriously injured, although the wound is medicated. But for some reason, the bleeding could not be completely stopped, although there was no danger of life. However, because the wound is still oozing blood, it cannot heal, which is really troublesome. So I want to ask Yu Ya to see if I can find some good hemostatic medicine on the mountain! Dr. Shi roughly stated the injury.

"I see, but it's strange that the bleeding from the wound can't be completely stopped after the medication. I wonder if Dr. Shi can tell me the medicine used on the wound? Xi Ningyu asked.

"Naturally, it is a requiem soup to be taken internally. Externally, it is a marching scatter. Doctor Shi did not shy away from saying his own formula.

"Hey, I used requiem soup. That should promote blood clotting and speed up wound healing. How could it be...... I don't know if it's inconvenient for me to see the injured? Xi Ningyu was also a little strange.

"If these people don't object...... Dr. Shi said.

"Naturally, please!" Mo Ying said.
