Volume 3 City of Water Chapter 214 Dragon Head Crutch

"Hehe, little brother's great kindness today, my Baicaotang must be unforgettable, the medicinal materials you asked for before have not been delivered yet, according to our previous agreement, it is better for you to choose other medicinal materials in the store first." ”

Zhou Nian chuckled, "Hehe, since that's the case, then I'm welcome." ”

Uncle Liang hugged his fists in return, "Little brother, please take care of yourself." ”

In his previous life, he was the king of the Five Rank Dan, what was he best at? Isn't it the use of Danhuo and the identification of medicinal materials?

As soon as he sniffed it, he could tell whether the medicinal materials in the store were good or bad, expensive or cheap, to put it more exaggeratedly, he even knew whether there were any insects, but at present, these in the store were still difficult to enter his eyes.

"That's all?" After smelling it for a while, Zhou Nian's brows couldn't help frowning, obviously he didn't find the medicinal herb he liked.

Seeing that the other party only didn't smell it, and didn't even bother to open the medicinal herb box, Uncle Liang muttered in his heart, "Huh, what kind of reputation is this kid doing? Using his nose to find things, isn't this a wild dog foraging?"

But naturally he wouldn't say those words, because it was too rude, he raised his eyebrows, Uncle Liang stretched out his hand and pointed to the back door of the lobby, "Little brother, there is still a backyard." ”

"Backyard?" Zhou Nian hesitated, he really didn't treat himself as an outsider when he did things, and walked away after speaking, "Let's go, take me to have a look." ”

"Oh. Uncle Liang nodded, and led Zhou Nian into the backyard.

As soon as I entered the backyard, several young men were bothering to bury the corpses there, and three large pits had been dug in such a short time, and their hands and feet were really nimble.

Seeing that the guys were about to fill in the soil and bury people, Uncle Liang almost jumped up and shouted directly, "Hey, what are you doing?"

"Huh?" one of the guys immediately stopped what he was doing, turned his head and muttered, "Uncle Liang, didn't you order us to dispose of the corpse?"

"Fart! When did I let you dispose of the body? I just let you carry you to the backyard and didn't let you bury people!"

The young man looked aggrieved when he heard this, "But if you don't bury it, won't the corpse stink?"

"Hmph, you don't have to worry about the stink, lift them aside, save them from being an eyesore here. ”

"Oh. The young man nodded, but his face was a little aggrieved, and he took the trouble to dig three big pits with his old nose, and the other party pouted with a word?

What a thankless effort!

After scolding the young man, Uncle Liang then turned his head to look at Zhou Nian, his attitude was simply a 180-degree turn, and he could see his back molars happily, "Hehe, little brother, the medicinal materials in the backyard are all here, you can pick whatever you want." ”

"Hmm. ”

Zhou Nian nodded, and then began to select medicinal materials.

Most of the medicinal materials in the backyard are some new medicines, with large moisture and sufficient amounts, and they are all stacked in baskets of different sizes, but the quality of these medicinal materials is somewhat unsatisfactory.

How to say it, it's just a little better than those medicinal herbs in the lobby.

Frowning slightly, Zhou Nian only looked at it for a while and then lost interest, and hugged his fist towards Uncle Liang, "Old man, apart from these in the backyard, is there anything else?"

"What?"

As soon as these words came out, Uncle Liang's old face was a little unbearable, and he opened his mouth and asked, "Little brother, are you not in love with these?"

Zhou Nian smacked his lips, "Alas, I speak too straight, don't take it to heart, the level of these medicinal materials is too low, I'm a little ......"

Uncle Liang was stunned, is he disgusting my Baicaotang?

But he was just about to show his displeasure, but he saw Zhou Nian suddenly raise his head and stare at a place, his eyes were shining, as if he had found some big treasure!

"Old man, what kind of place is that?" Zhou Nian's face was solemn, and then he pointed to a hut not far from the backyard.

Uncle Liang looked at it curiously, and said in a slow tone, "Oh, there, there used to be the ancestral hall of our Baicao Hall dedicated to the ancestor master, and then the ancestral hall was relocated, and now it is empty, it has been in disrepair for many years, and the house is dilapidated, which makes the little brother smile." ”

Zhou Nian waved his hand, "No, no, it's not enough to laugh, I'm just a little curious about it, I wonder if I'm lucky enough to go in and have a visit?"

"Visit......? It's not good. Uncle Liang's old face suddenly turned red.

Zhou Nian raised his eyebrows and looked at him, "Oh, could it be that there are any treasures in it that are inconvenient for outsiders to see?"

Uncle Liang hurriedly waved his hand and said, "No, little brother, you misunderstood, that is a broken house, what treasures can there be, but it is in disrepair, the house is very messy, and the things inside are some shabby furnishings, I'm afraid ...... I'm afraid I'll get your clothes dirty. ”

Zhou Nian said indifferently, "It's okay, I'll just go in and take a look, and I'll come out soon." ”

"That'...... Then I'll send someone in and clean it up first. ”

"No, just go in. Zhou Nian waved his hand, and didn't wait for Uncle Liang to agree, he walked away after speaking.

Uncle Liang looked puzzled, so he hurriedly followed.

"Crunch. ”

As soon as the wooden door of the old ancestral hall was pushed open, a smell of dust immediately entered everyone's nostrils, thin and heavy, and several people sneezed vigorously.

"Ahh

I didn't get used to it at first, but after a little longer, I naturally got used to it.

The furnishings in the old ancestral hall are very old, there is a very large table of eight immortals in front of the door, behind the table is an offering table, on which are placed two white candles that are about to burn out, on both sides of the offering platform are two Taishi chairs, made of jujube wood, not used for many years, there is a chair armrest has been broken, it is covered with thick dust, reach out and touch, it is enough to be an inch thick, obviously no one has come to clean it for a long time.

There is a dragon's head crutch near the corner of the wall, three feet long, smooth and round, the dragon's head is lifelike, the carving is even more delicate, the surface is covered with a layer of red wax, it feels comfortable to touch, but it has been put on the shelf here, as a discard.

With his eyes moving slightly, Zhou Nian fell in love with the dragon's head crutch at a glance, others couldn't see the mystery in it, but they couldn't hide it from his nose.

Holding the dragon's head crutch in his hand, Zhou Nian's expression was amused, and he said casually, "Old man, this crutch is ......"

Uncle Liang hurriedly said, "Oh, this crutch, this is something that our ancestor used when he was alive, and he has always carried it close to him, and it is a must-have thing for him. ”

"Oh?" Zhou Nian raised his eyebrows, touching the crutches and playing with them casually, seemingly not interested, but in fact waiting for the other party to speak.

After hesitating for a moment, Uncle Liang really couldn't hold his breath anymore, and asked tentatively, "Does little brother like this crutch?"

Zhou Nian was secretly happy in his heart, but his tone was very flat, and he nodded and said, "Well, a little interested." ”

"Oh?" Uncle Liang suddenly felt strange in his heart, and slowly muttered, "Little brother, are you going to ......"

"Hehe, don't hide it from the old man, I have a friend who has a little leg problem, and his movement is not very convenient, I have always wanted to give him a gift, I think this crutch is quite suitable, I don't know, are you willing to cut love?"

"Oh?" Uncle Liang was stunned for a moment, unable to hide the curiosity in his heart, and opened his mouth to ask, "But I don't know this friend of the little brother, he is ......?"

"Hehe, his name is Song Kangshi. ”

"What!" As soon as these words came out, Uncle Liang's pupils dilated!

He hadn't heard much of other people's reputations, but Song Tiegui's reputation was a household name in the City of Water, like thunder, especially in the pharmacist industry, almost everyone who opened a pharmacy knew it!

The old eye blinked quickly a few times, and Uncle Liang spoke in a more polite tone than before, and said with a fist, "Oh, it turns out that the little brother is actually a friend of Pharmacist Song, disrespectful, disrespectful!"

"Hehe, the old man is polite, but I don't know ...... this crutch"

Uncle Liang waved his hand, "Hey, if you like it, just take it, anyway, it's a discarded thing in my Baicaotang, it's better to let it play its true role." ”

"Hehe, since that's the case, then I'll thank you. Zhou Nian cupped his fists and saluted back.

"Haha, it's easy to say, it's easy to say. Uncle Liang smiled heavily, he could go online with Song Tiegui, a dignified third-grade pharmacist, and it was too late for him to be happy, so naturally he wouldn't pick the door.

Reaching out and putting the crutches into his bag, Zhou Nian's purpose had been achieved, and he obviously didn't want to stay here longer.

Turning around and going out, Zhou Nian casually closed the wooden door of the old ancestral hall, and then said to Uncle Liang, "Old man, thank you for letting me visit the old ancestral hall of Baicaotang, the medicinal materials in the backyard have not yet dried, and there are no medicinal materials I want in it, why don't we go back to the lobby." ”

"Good. ”

Uncle Liang nodded, anyway, Zhou Nian would only pick on his herbs from Baicaotang, and he didn't take much, so he simply followed him around.

Returning to the lobby again, Zhou Nian's most wanted crutches had already arrived, so he simply paced slowly at the medicine cabinet, ready to take a random medicinal herb and perfunctory.

Uncle Liang waited carefully on the side, and arranged for someone to make a pot of good tea, and his attitude was more attentive than before.

casually opened a medicine box, Zhou Nian took out the medicinal materials and didn't even look at them, and directly put them into his arms.

Uncle Liang looked at him curiously, not knowing the secret, but he was surprised why the other party only picked a very mediocre medicinal herb and gave up?

However, he didn't ask much, saying more and less was a burden, so he simply let Zhou Nian choose.

When Zhou Nian returned to him, Uncle Liang spoke, "Hehe, little brother has picked it?"

"Hmm. ”

"Okay, that's good. Uncle Liang nodded, and then handed the tea bowl on the table forward, "The medicinal materials that the little brother asked for before must be about to arrive, don't worry, you can take a sip of tea first." ”

"Thank you. Zhou Nian was no longer polite, picked up the teacup and began to taste the tea.

About five minutes later, three people suddenly rushed in at the door, looking anxious and sweating profusely, except for Bai Wenqi and Wang Zailu, who had gone to fetch Feng Tulan before, Ma Youde also followed.

As soon as the girl from Hesiyu entered the store, the old boy Ma Youde disappeared like a puff of smoke, not because he was afraid, but because he had been a business partner of Baicaotang for many years, he couldn't help but talk about friendship, and he knew that the other party was not good, so he hurriedly sent a message to Bai Wenqi.

Every time he slaughters more dogs, he is a scholar, what he said is actually not false at all, don't look at Ma Youde's usual hanging son, he is really going to get down to business, he is quite righteous!
