Chapter 184: Weakness
I didn't bother to be humble with him, so I hugged my fist at him and said with a smile: "Mr. Xie praises." Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info”
He glanced at me and said dissatisfiedly, "Look at what you said, it seems like I was fooling you."
After that, he looked left and right, and said to himself: "Why don't you even have saliva here, are you thirsty?"
Originally, he was not thirsty, but he felt a little bit when he asked, so he nodded.
Gillibal immediately slapped his thigh as if he was being taken care of, "See? What am I talking about? It's not okay if there's no one to wait, there's not even a person to serve tea and pour water, so I think I'd better send someone to you when I look back!"
"You just need to send someone to bring tea, water and food every day, and leave when you're done, and don't worry about the rest."
This time he didn't object, and just said, "Okay." Then he came over with the cat in his arms, stroked the cat's head, and asked me, "Do you want this cat?" It took a lot of effort for me to find it! ”
I snatched the cat from his arms, gave him a blank look, and said, "Yes!" Absolutely! ”
I liked this cat and dog when I was a child, but unfortunately my father didn't let me raise it when I was a child, for fear that they would pee on the medicinal herbs and affect the quality, so I could only go to the neighbor's house to recruit cats and dogs to dislike people. Now that I see this snow-white and half-sized cat, I naturally like it very much.
I cuddled it in my arms and asked, "What's the name of this cat?"
Gillibar opened his mouth, stared dryly and thought for a long time without saying it, scratched his head and said: "Oh, this is from a Persian merchant, I asked at the time, the name is very strange, and it is quite long." Eh, I remembered it at the time, but why did I forget it all the way? Why don't you get another one? ”
This cat is not afraid of life at all, at this time, lying on my lap, very well-behaved.
I gently tickled its neck with my hand, listened to its pleasant purring, thought about it, and said, "Then call it Cher." ”
"Cher? The name is good and apt. ”
Gillibal looked at me playing with the cat for a while, and asked tentatively, hesitantly, "Master, when are we going to dispense medicine for the king?" ”
I played with the cat in my arms without raising my head and said, "In a hurry? ”
He was immediately embarrassed, and said, "No hurry, no hurry." ”
I curled the corners of my lips slightly, pursed my lips, and said, "Lying." ”
Gillibal did not have the slightest sense of being debunked, but grinned and said, "Look at you, you are telling the truth."
"Let's go, take me to the pharmacy." I put the cat down, stood up, lifted my legs and walked away.
"Huh!"
Gillibal suddenly came to his senses, got up suddenly, and followed with a fuss.
As soon as he entered the pharmacy, Gillibar yelled for a quick cup of tea. He has a heart, a good memory, and knows that I am thirsty.
I sipped tea, looked at the pharmacy, and felt that the pharmacy in this palace was not a big deal, and the scale was not much bigger than my shop.
I probably looked through it, but I didn't expect that this pharmacy was just like Cuizhuxuan, low-key on the outside, but luxurious on the inside, which made my eyes light up.
In addition to the conventional herbs, there are also some cherished medicinal materials such as toad crisp, Tianshan snow lotus, cordyceps, ambergris, rhinoceros horn, dendrobium, eucommia, deer antler, ginseng of five taels, shou wu wu, poria cocos of huajia, etc., each of which I can't put down.
You must know that there are a lot of things here that can be used as treasures of the town store alone, which is so easy to see one or two on weekdays? Now that they are all gathered in front of me like flowers, how can they not make me happy?
I looked at these babies, and the corners of my mouth were a little uncontrollably grinning to the root of my ears.
There is no way, people who understand medicine are the most disdainful of these things, and when they see them, it is like a dog seeing a bone (phew, what kind of metaphor is this?!). Generally just can't take a look off the eyes. If it weren't for Gilibal standing by, I would have kissed each other and laughed in my arms for three or five hours.
I forced myself to be calm, trying not to let people see my excited heart, and picked up dozens of items with a flat expression, took all kinds of precious medicinal materials, and asked people to pack them and send them to Cuizhuxuan together with the utensils for boiling medicine.
It's not that I'm greedy, it's that it's not easy to encounter these herbs at the same time, and I plan to use them to make a few more medicines in case of emergency.
Of course, there is something to be asked for, but I still like to enjoy the pharmaceutical process. Watching the piles of materials turn into pills or bottles of miraculous potions or ointments, the sense of accomplishment is indescribable.
Sitting in the pharmacy, greedy for the smell of medicine in the air, and drank a few cups of tea, about the things were almost delivered, then reluctantly got up and left.
On the way back, I was in a good mood, with a faint smile on the corners of my eyes and eyebrows, and Gillibal looked at me again and again. I finally got mad when he took a third look, glared at him with a smile, and asked, "Have you seen enough?" ”
Gillibal turned his head and pursed his lips to secretly laugh, like the owl in the tree in front of the Scripture Pavilion.
"What are you laughing at? Is it that funny? ”
"Hahaha~"
He finally stopped being patient and let out a series of hilarious laughs that made me feel like kicking him.
I glanced at him, and the creature stopped laughing and said, "I know what impresses you the most." ”
Well? Am I acting that obviously? I blinked slowly, touched my chin, and turned to look at him.
This guy saw my suspicion and explained, "With all due respect, don't be angry, the king didn't rejoice in seeing you with so much treasure, but those medicinal herbs just now, although your face is nothing, your eyes are shining. ”
Gillibar said, gesturing with two fingers in front of his eyes.
"The king has given you something, and let us wait on you carefully, so that you can enjoy the highest standard of treatment, but it is nothing more than to arouse your greed. Once a person has greed, he has shortcomings, and he can be controlled by others.
I didn't expect you to be interested in any of this, I thought you didn't have any weaknesses! Haha, I found out today.
If you knew this earlier, what kind of treasures and beauties did the king give, wouldn't it be over if he directly gave you a few precious medicinal materials? Get! ”
Gillibal shook his pigtails from side to side, and exaggerated regret: "Oh, what a waste of such a big box of treasures, tsk, I feel distressed when I look at it!" ”
Hum! Do you think my little monk with a pure heart is so easy to handle? Any insight?
I stopped, looked at him like a monster, and looked at the pile of fat there trembling and angry, and glanced at him fiercely, and walked straight past him.
Breathless, Gilibal caught up with me, approached me and asked, "Master, do you say, is this the legendary 'you can't do things anymore, and you can't do anything if you're tired to death'?" ”
