Chapter Twenty-Nine: Unfathomable
It occurred to me that the person had stunned me with a white powder, what the hell was that? The smell is very unfamiliar, it should not be made of ordinary Chinese medicine, and eighty percent of it comes from a wild way.
Then he remembered the big medicine cupboard, maybe he had put that drug in that drawer? Why don't I find it and put it to use?
The thought of the possibility of a tooth for a tooth became inexplicably excited, and he didn't bother to find a mechanism to open the door, so he slipped down the stairs and back to the basement.
At first, thinking that he might put it with the topical medicine, he first looked at the drawers around the medicine cabinet, but he didn't find it. Later, I thought, this kind of indiscriminate drug, theoretically does not belong to traditional Chinese medicine, maybe this guy still has a bit of a doctor's self-knowledge, so he stored it separately?
So I went to the shelf next to the medicine cabinet to look for it, and I really found a small cloth bag, and when I opened it, it was a small paper bag. Gently fanned your hand in the direction of your nose, and the smell of the drug came faintly.
Succeed with flying colors! I took out a piece of cotton cloth from the shelf, held it in my left hand, and carefully took the open paper bag with my right hand, and ambushed me by the door.
After waiting for a long time, there was finally a sound of footsteps, and the small door opened with a "squeak". I covered my nose with my left hand and sprinkled all the powder on my right hand towards the visitor!
The man's face suddenly appeared, and sure enough, it was the previous pharmacy owner, and he saw me at a glance, and saw a handful of white powder flying towards him, but he didn't seem to panic, just stood there calmly and confronted me for a few seconds!
Ay? Why didn't he fall? I was amazed. Did I take the wrong medicine? No way, my sense of smell can't be wrong!
Moreover, obviously I covered my nose, why do I still feel a little dizzy, not good! …… I just understood a little bit, and I was already crooked, and I fainted again!
I don't know how long it took for me to wake up. Fortunately, this time he was not hung upside down again, but was tied up and thrown to the ground. The proprietor of the pharmacy sat on a bench not far from me, looking at me with a smirk.
"You...... You take the antidote...... "Even after such a miserable situation, I still want to prove that I am not really stupid for the first time."
"Stinky boy, teach you the first common sense, but all powerful drugs are not only inhaled through the nose, but can be effective through seven holes, and even sticking to the skin may make people weak." He began to lecture me.
I looked at him like a good teacher, and my lungs were about to explode, so I just kept quiet and let him show off.
He was obviously in high spirits, and he didn't care about my feelings, and said, "Teach you another common sense, don't use other people's weapons to attack others." Sooner or later, you'll hurt yourself with something you don't like! ”
I have to admit that he made a lot of sense, but I still had to be quick to speak, and immediately shouted: "What kind of hero are you with these three indiscriminate means, you have the ability to let go of me, let's compete with real knives and guns, if you can win me, I will be at your disposal!" ”
"Hmph, you stinky boy, you want me to let go of you, no way! There's no need to compete, now you're at my disposal! He burst out laughing.
I glanced at the medicine cabinet next to me, and I had another plan, and shouted: "You are also a doctor, what kind of ability is it to use drugs?" Patriarch, his old man will be angry with you when he knows about it! I have no grievances with you, why do you want to arrest me? I think you are afraid that the next life will surpass you, so you use this unjust means! ……”
Sure enough, these words seemed to hurt his self-esteem, and he jumped up in anger and shouted: "Nonsense! I arrested you because ......"
Because...... That's exactly what I want to hear!
But in the middle of his speech, he suddenly calmed down again, snorted and sat down again, his sharp eyes fixed on me, and the mustache on his lips curled up as if he were sulking.
The reason why I dared to use such a radical technique was because I had secretly cut the rope at hand with the white quartz hidden in my waist. Otherwise, if he is provoked, he rushes over and cuts me on the spot, wouldn't it be self-defeating! I thought to myself that if he rushed over, I wouldn't suffer a big loss with this sharp weapon in my hand, but it was a little difficult for him to sit still like this.
Since you can't fight, let's continue to chat, I asked: "Hey, uncle, you mentioned the Tao family before, is the Tao family your enemy or friend?" ”
He replied expressionlessly, "Neither." ”
But the moment he answered, I seemed to see a gloomy look flash in his eyes.
There will be induction between people, if you take Tian Ge's words, it should be a natural magnetic field, even if you are not close, you can feel each other.
Ever since I met this uncle yesterday, I've always had a sense of déjà vu. Although they fought three times, they never felt the real murderous aura from him. Although he now denies that he has anything to do with the Tao family, I think there must be something strange about it.
This clue must not be let go easily!
"In that case, why don't you let go of me, uncle, and how about we have a good chat?" I started to grin.
"Who the hell are you?" He asked.
"Didn't you say it all, my name is Tao Yong, and I have only been here for two days."
"You heard yesterday that someone had a strange disease, who are you referring to?" He asked.
Speaking of this, I suddenly thought of the latest information I had just overheard, so I might as well test him with this, and said, "I won't tell you anything, it's my own home." There's a secret I told you not to tell anyone, this strange disease is eighty percent related to a family heirloom in my family. ”
"What heirloom?"
"A small Dan furnace, made of very rare stones, also has a name called ...... 'Blood Rock Furnace'." I said nonsense.
"What!" He jumped up again and looked at me like a monster.
I noticed that his eyes were full of surprise, a little worry and fear, but not a hint of hostility.
After being stunned for a moment, he walked straight to me, and when he was about to bend down close to me, he suddenly scolded: "Stinky boy! ”
Because I have grabbed him with one hand on my chest, and with the other I have pressed the white quartz to the major artery in his neck! Although this murder weapon is very small, as long as I move my hand lightly, his life will be reimbursed.
"Looks like you don't want to ask me anything, so I'll ask instead." I laughed.
He didn't dare to move, and glared at me angrily.
"Your name...... Uh, I already know, it's called Yan Tiansheng, right? I asked.
He was a little surprised, but nodded slightly.
"You're tracking down the whereabouts of the Bloodrock Furnace, aren't you?" I asked again.
He seemed a little hesitant, but nodded anyway.
"Then do you know where the Tao family is now? I mean, someone else but me. ”
"I don't know." He replied.
I was a little disappointed, but it didn't look like he was lying.
"What the hell are you looking for the Blood Rock Furnace for?" I feel as imposing as a cop now.
But he gave me a basin of cold water in the head: "I can't say this." ”
"Why? Because someone threatened you? ”
"No, it's because I've been entrusted with it."
"By whom?"
"I can't say it all!" He shouted, his face filled with exasperation.
As soon as I saw it, I couldn't seem to ask any more, so I let go of him as soon as I let go of my hand, and said with a smile, "Okay, then I'll go back." ”
He was stunned for a moment, frowned and asked, "Aren't you afraid that I will arrest you again?" Your three-legged cat's kung fu is no match for me at all. ”
"I can't beat you, but you won't arrest me, didn't you just come here to untie me!" I said confidently.
He was stunned for a moment, then laughed, and scolded again: "Stinky boy! ”
As I was about to walk out of the basement, I glanced back at the huge medicine cabinet and exclaimed, "Your collection is really amazing!" “
He said proudly: "That's right, to put it mildly, I have some good goods here, and I don't even have the most well-known big pharmacies in the Central Plains." ”
"I think this town is not small, why is it that you are the only one who sells medicine?" I saw that he was in a good mood and took the opportunity to ask.
"There used to be many," he sighed, "but now they're all gone." ”
"What about the people when they get sick?" I asked.
"'Medical divination, all skills', how many doctors can cure diseases and save people now? There is no one who wants to believe it, and would rather believe in the theory of ghosts and ghosts, or go to the gods and worship the Buddha. He replied with some indignation.
"Why is this happening?"
“…… Less nonsense, get out of here! ”
When I got out of the basement, I found that this was actually a house behind his shop, and after walking a few steps through the atrium, I came to the dilapidated storefront in front.
Before leaving, he said to me solemnly, "You even ...... Everything is clear, I will temporarily believe that you are a member of the Tao family. You are lucky to tell me about those things in your family, but if you tell others about it, sooner or later you will be killed, you must remember! ”
"Daddy Yan don't worry," I arched my hand and said, "If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have said it." ”
He smiled, looking quite kind, but his tone was very stern: "Let's go!" Don't come back if it's okay! "Then he shoved a medicine bag into my hand. I immediately realized that this rush wanted me to pretend to be someone who came to buy medicine, seeing that others were rude, and my heart was really careful!
After walking a few steps out of the store, it suddenly occurred to me that there was someone else watching this store besides me. So much so that he needs to be cautious to this point?
Thinking of the conversation that I overheard, I felt that the visitor didn't sound like an ordinary person, Daddy Yan was so arrogant to me, but he seemed to be a little respectful to the visitor, what is the relationship between them?
What I care about the most is that they say to check what "a woman and Dan furnace", Dan furnace seems to be really my family's blood rock furnace, who does that woman refer to? I'm a pure man who is like a fake, am I not the master of the Blood Rock Furnace?
It's also strange for them to find the Blood Rock Furnace, that thing is just a proof that my Tao family used to remind future generations of the existence of the blood curse, what's the use of outsiders asking for it? Could it be that there is some other mystery in it besides being evidence?
Speaking of women, it won't mean Rui worry, right? No, she's quite famous here, if you wanted to find her, you'd have found it a long time ago, what else do you need to use seventy-two? ……
The more I think about it, the more confused I become, it seems that the water in here is really deep!
Walking to a street corner, I remembered that I hadn't bought what Rui Wei asked me to buy, so I turned left into an alley, and just a few steps away, someone shouted behind me, "Stop! ”
