The pharmacy is small, and only the shopkeeper and an apprentice are busy inside. But although the sparrow is small, all the organs are complete, and the commonly used medicinal materials can be caught here, and from time to time, people from the vicinity come to catch one or two flavored medicines.

When Ren Xiaoyao walked in, there was no one at the counter, but there was one standing outside the counter, he didn't care at first, but after looking carefully, he couldn't help but call out in surprise: "Why are you here?" ”

The man was stunned for a moment, then quickly turned around, revealing that familiar face, which turned out to be Ip Man.

Ye Man had been waiting here for a while, he was waiting for the shopkeeper to grab the medicinal herbs, when he heard someone calling him, he couldn't help but turn his head to look, and saw that it was Ren Xiaoyao, first there was a moment of surprise, and then it turned into a smile: "Ah Xiao, why are you here too, this is not close to where you live." ”

"It's not close, I came here to grab medicine for an elder, and his house is near here. How did you come here? This pharmacy should be small for you, right? Ren Xiaoyao explained, and then asked.

"No wonder." Ye Man was stunned, and then there was a hint of helplessness on his face: "Well, that's because I can't buy all the medicinal herbs I want, and I ran all over the city to find such a store and sell it." ”

"Can't buy medicine?" Ren Xiaoyao was slightly surprised, "Now the lack of medicinal materials has reached this point?" ”

Ye Man smiled bitterly: "Who says it's not, we martial arts people boil their bodies, and the demand for medicines is much higher than ordinary people, and some key medicinal materials are extremely rare, this time it is also a coincidence, the store that supplied me with medicinal materials in the past was robbed by bandits in the north a few days ago, and one of them is very rare, so I had to go out and run the pharmacy to find it." ”

It turned out that this was the case, Ren Xiaoyao nodded: "Ah asked if you can find it, if there are no medicinal materials, your martial arts practice will probably be affected." ”

Ye Man's expression was not so relaxed, and he shook his head and said, "Ah Xiao, you don't know, my consumption of this medicinal material is very fast, and the medicine here is not enough for me to use for a few days." ”

"Huh? So what do you do. "There is nothing Ren Xiaoyao can do, a big local household like Ip Man is not good, and he is even more difficult as an "outsider".

"I'm worried about it now, and if I can't do it then, I can only stop for a while, and wait for the store that supplies me with medicine to resume practice next time." Ip Man shook his head and sighed.

At this time, Ren Xiaoyao suddenly remembered what Ye Man had just said, that the medicinal herbs were robbed by bandits, and his heart moved, could it be that Jinshan was looking for those people?

He asked, "Ah Q, do you know where those medicinal herbs were robbed?" ”

Ye Man thought for a while and replied: "It seems to be on the edge of Foshan, it seems that local bandits did it." ”

Local bandits? Those eight or nine are not far from ten. Only people like Jinshan who have just fallen into the grass will wantonly rob goods, if they were those old bandits, they would not do this at all, otherwise they would not have lost the goods sooner or later, and they have only lost them now.

The time calculation is also right, Jin Shan is probably looking for a few days before he came to challenge Ip Man, now this time is enough for him to accumulate strength with a few brothers, with his strength at the peak of Ming Jin, it is considered very strong among ordinary martial artists, as long as the dark strength master does not come out, there is basically no opponent.

But how many dark energy masters are there? As the hometown of martial arts, there is only one Ip Man on the surface, and even if there is one in secret, it will not exceed the number of one hand, so that there are fewer people at this level in the country.

"Poor literature and rich martial arts", this is the most indisputable fact, in this era it is too difficult to have inheritance and abundant resources.

Thinking of this, Ren Xiaoyao said: "In this case, Ah asked if you wanted to go over and finish off that gang of bandits?" ”

"Finish off the bandits?" Ye Man was taken aback, looked at Ren Xiaoyao in surprise, and shook his head with a wry smile: "How can you have such an idea, although we have practiced kung fu, it is impossible for us to break into the bandit village alone, not to mention how many people there are in those bandits, just the gun in their hands is not something we can resist, in the end, those of us who practice martial arts are only useful in hand-to-hand combat, alas!" ”

This is the intention to kill the thief, and there is no power to return to heaven.

A master of internal boxing like Ip Man is at most at the peak of ordinary people's combat power, and it is extremely difficult to really transcend to another level, first of all, the current environment does not allow it.

Ren Xiaoyao smiled and said, "It's not impossible, think about it, have you lost medicinal herbs before except this time?" ”

"Nope." Ip Man thought about it and replied, but he didn't know what Ren Xiaoyao meant by asking.

"Then why did you lose it this time?" Let Xiaoyao guide step by step.

Ip Man is also a quick-witted person, and when he was reminded like this, he suddenly woke up and suddenly said, "What do you mean... The bandits who robbed the medicinal herbs this time were a group of "new thieves"? ”

"That's right." Ren Xiaoyao nodded with a faint smile, "So, they shouldn't have guns in their hands, Foshan is not like those places in the north, where there are wars everywhere, and guns are easy to get." ”

Ye Man couldn't help nodding, feeling that Ren Xiaoyao was reasonable, but he still felt that it was inappropriate: "But just like this, I am afraid that the two of us will not be able to do it, right?" ”

"Who said it's just me?" Ren Yao smiled mysteriously.

"Who else?" Ye Man's mind didn't turn for a while.

"Li Zhao." Ren Xiaoyao gently spit out two words.

"Li Zhao?" Ye Man was stunned for a moment, and then his eyes lit up, this is a good way, and then he called Li Zhao to go with the patrol team, then it would be easy to deal with this group of bandits.

Seeing that Ye Man was already moved, Ren Xiaoyao smiled and said: "However, this time has to be controlled, the two of us need to sneak into the bandits' den first, and only after getting the things can we let them come." ”

Naturally, he would not go to the bandits' den for no reason, and the reason why he did so was mainly for three reasons.

One is for money. How do you get the fastest money in the world? Rob, of course! But good people can't be robbed, so it's okay to hit the bandits with the idea, right? He was still thinking about how to make some money, but when he heard the news, was there anything better? Since they are all bandits, they want to support a group of brothers, and they definitely can't do it if they don't have money, so they will copy one of the bandits' nests, and all the money will come.

As for how the money came from, is it to be returned to the victims? ! Although his heart is bright, he is not pedantic, and he has no moral purity, so of course he accepts it with peace of mind. If he thinks about it differently and he solves the bandits, will those victims be grateful to him? So it's not too much to get paid for this money, right?

The second is to increase experience. He still has less combat experience now, and fighting is the catalyst for improving his strength, and he guesses in his heart that he probably has too little fighting experience, so he has not been able to find the direction of progress for a long time at this time.

The third is to be prepared. Now that the Japanese are coming, he needs to take measures as soon as possible. He originally wanted to be a duckweed, floating freely in this troubled world, but after living for more than four months, he wondered if he could change this situation?

As an outsider, he is very clear about the situation in Foshan behind, if he can give them a fatal blow before the Japanese army enters the city, maybe he can create a glimmer of life for Foshan!

This "fatal blow" seems to be a bit fantastical now, and he is more like a mantis arm as a car with such an idea, but he still has more than a year to prepare, doesn't he? If we find a way within this time, maybe it will be possible!

Of course, although he is whimsical, but he is by no means arrogant, he only thinks that he has the opportunity to change the outcome of Foshan with all his might, but he does not think that he can change the fate of the whole country and the nation.

Once he can change the ending of Foshan, even if it is just to let the last few people survive a little more, then he is enough to comfort him and feel worthy of his own experience.

In life, people do not seek to stand up to the sky, but to be worthy of their hearts. Now he just wants himself to be worthy of his heart, otherwise let him watch the Japanese burn and loot around him, but he is indifferent, which is tantamount to putting his morality and bottom line under his feet and stepping on it again and again, until it is rotten!

Thinking of this, he shouted at Ip Man, who was thinking, and said, "Before that, we need to know where that batch of medicinal materials was stolen, we look around there, and we should be able to find the bandits' den soon." ”

"Well, that's easy, I'll ask later." Ip Man nodded.

"Then let's set a time, get everything ready, and then go and find out what is real." Ren Xiaoyao said.

"Sooner rather than later, in three days, we'll meet outside the north in three days." Ip Man thought for a moment and said.

"Okay, then three days later. But Li Zhao also needs you to come forward, hasn't he always called you Master? Ren Yao said again.

"Well, no problem." Ip Man still agreed.

At this time, it happened that the shopkeeper also took Ip Man's medicine and walked over from inside, just now Ip Man and Ren Xiaoyao spoke in a small voice, and he didn't hear it.

"Then I'll go first, and I'll see you then." Ye Man took the medicine, turned around and said a word to Ren Xiaoyao, and after seeing him nodding, he left.

After Ye Man went out, Ren Xiaoyao withdrew his gaze, handed the prescription to the waiting shopkeeper, and said, "The medicine will be grasped according to this." ”

The shopkeeper answered, took the prescription and looked at it, and saw that they were all commonly used medicinal materials, and he had them here, so he nodded and said, "Okay, you wait a minute." ”

After about ten minutes, several large bags of medicinal herbs were taken out by the shopkeeper.

"Thank you." Ren Xiaoyao took the medicinal herbs, gave the money, and turned back.

At this time, the last bit of money on his body was also spent, but he didn't feel much, the money came quickly, and those things that were taken away were only worth a few hundred in the real world, and it was already very good to be able to use so much money here until now.

Walking all the way, he soon arrived at the previous house, he stepped forward and knocked on the courtyard door vigorously.
