When Tang Chizhou returned to the room, he didn't expect the old man to hurry back to the pharmacy again, because it was raining, and the warehouse in the shop was leaking, so the old man hurriedly went back to deal with it.

When Tang Chizhou told the professor the news, the professor was a little unbelieving at first, and after repeatedly asking about the situation, he was convinced that the news Tang Chizhou got was reliable, especially the strange dress of the Taoist priest, which was exactly the same as what the feng shui master saw in the cemetery.

In the past two days, the professor's feet have basically healed, but for the valley and the strangely shaped cave, there are still palpitations, the professor and Tang Chizhou actually vaguely feel that just outside the cave entrance, they have encountered so many strange things, maybe there will be something in the cave?

Since that Taoist priest can come out to deliver food to this store, it may not be a good choice to wait for the rabbit. But the question is when to wait, didn't the shopkeeper say that the Taoist priest only appeared a few times a year? I don't know when he will come out next time, which is also crucial, because the professor still has Tang Chizhou, after all, the time to stay here is limited. They inquired about it again, and of course, they only said that they really wanted to eat that kind of dish, and asked when it would be available, and they wanted to taste it again before leaving, and the result was lucky beyond their expectations-the shopkeeper said that there were still eight days before the next delivery. The owner of the store is not a chef, and the consumption of dishes is calculated very accurately, and the delivery time is also very accurate. Although the shopkeeper kept scolding the shopkeeper for being stingy, he had to praise the shopkeeper for his ability.

The shopkeeper also told them that the time when the Taoist priest came to deliver the goods was very precise, every time it was at night, when there were the least people, and the only people who received the goods on the spot were the shopkeeper and him. And the reason why this is done is for the sake of secrecy.

This shopkeeper has simply become Tang Chizhou and the professor's intelligence officer, every piece of information he provides is so important to the professor and Tang Chizhou, I'm afraid even the shopkeeper himself didn't realize it, but he can't manage so much, Tang Chizhou has not rewarded him with silver dollars since he lived in the store, which is the most important thing for him.

After repeated discussions, the professor and Tang Chizhou finally decided that they must seize the opportunity of the Taoist priest to deliver food and take the opportunity to approach him, except for this, there is no more certain plan.

Of course, for these plans, it is better to ask the old man to give a staff officer, after all, he is a local and knows more about all aspects, maybe he can find all kinds of shortcomings in the plan, or have a better plan. The day after the professor and Tang Chizhou decided to implement this plan, they took the initiative to visit the old man's pharmacy.

Because the old man's pharmacy belongs to the time-honored brand in the county, it is very famous, and there are many generations of people's families who take medicine in the pharmacy of the old man's family, so the ancestral pharmacy of the old man's family has simply become a landmark building in the county, no one knows, no one knows, and the two people did not take much effort to find it.

This pharmacy is much bigger than the two of them expected, five or six houses on the street are all opened, and the names of various medicines are written on the dense small drawers on the medicine shelves, just the guys, there are about 20 of them, and the shops come and go, not only to catch medicine and see a doctor, but also many medicine dealers from other places, because on this mountain, some of the herbs produced are of excellent quality, so there are many medicinal herb dealers who come here to buy medicinal materials.

I really didn't expect the old man's pharmacy business to be so big. Although the income should be much smaller than that of Tang Chizhou's family, because after all, it is in the most prosperous Shanghai, but in this poor and remote place, this is definitely one of the largest scales. It seems that the old man is still quite low-key, and he has never heard him boast about how prosperous his business is.

When Tang Chizhou and the professor entered the pharmacy, the eyes of almost everyone in the store gradually focused on the two of them, because these two people were a little dazzling - both were in suits and leather shoes, and there was also a foreigner with blue eyes and yellow hair.

The two of them searched the old man among so many people with their eyes, but before they could see the old man, the old man found him first, and came out of nowhere, and called out loudly: "Oh, honorable guest, honored guest, I don't know what wind has blown you over." Let's go to the back, please."

The two followed the old man to the main room in the backyard, which was the courtyard behind the pharmacy, the house of the bookkeeper, the warehouse where the medicinal herbs were stored, and the quarters of the men.

After the servant finished serving tea, when there were only the three of them in the room, Tang Chizhou and the professor told the old man in detail about the purpose of the trip, and the old man listened very carefully, squinting his eyes, brushing his goatee, and there seemed to be no special expression on his face, no special excitement, no special surprise, just listened quietly. The old man was originally a very enthusiastic person with a very outgoing expression, but it was the first time that he found him so calm and indifferent, which was really a bit unexpected by the two of them.

After the two of them finished speaking, the old man let out a long sigh and said slowly: "The last time I heard the two of you mention, that kind of dish is actually an extremely precious medicinal material, I was moved in my heart, I am doing this business, of course I am concerned about this kind of thing, if it is really as Mr. Tang said, this medicine has a miraculous effect on the treatment of women's infertility, then this medicine is not only the current price, after all, this price is to use it as a "dish", if it is used as a miracle medicine for the treatment of infertility, then it can be priceless, What I mean by these words is that whether it was the man who looked like Qin Shi Huang two thousand years ago, or the old Taoist now, and the mysterious blind man, I am afraid that these three people are not very well versed in medicine, otherwise, they should sell this leaf as medicine, and the money they get in that way should not be more."

The professor and Tang Chizhou didn't agree with the old man's words, and felt that his words were very flawed, especially Tang Chizhou, who felt that the old man's inference was very incorrect, and after considering the words, he said to the old man: "The old man's words are very reasonable, but this is only one possibility, and the other greater possibility is that these three people are not ignorant of medicine, but they are proficient in medicine, because only by being proficient in medicine can it be possible to detect the convergence and change of yin and yang qi according to the surrounding environment. Only then can we guess the medicinal properties and tastes that guò may have by looking at the growth environment, shape, and smell of this plant.

And all levels of Chinese medicine and Chinese culture are integrated, in Chinese medicine, those who are skilled in medicine must have a deep understanding and study of all aspects of Chinese culture, on the contrary, those who are proficient in Chinese culture are often familiar with medical skills, that Taoist priest is a first-class master in feng shui, with his profound attainments in feng shui, it is easy to see the medicinal properties of this plant, and then the other two people, the person who looks like Qin Shi Huang, according to the professor's research, He once lived with an old eunuch in the palace of Qin Shi Huang in the valley, and this old eunuch was in the palace, often in contact with the imperial doctor, so he knew medical skills, and the medical skills of the person who looked like Qin Shi Huang were probably learned from the old eunuch, and the blind man, I don't know the origin, but it is very likely that he is also a deep medical skill, in short, it is these people who are proficient in medical skills, so it is easy to find this special taste of the plant in the valley. ”

After hearing this, the old man did not refute, but nodded and smiled, and praised Tang Chizhou for being right. The three of them talked for a while, but the old man didn't seem to have a reason for the plan they were about to implement, so the professor and Tang Chizhou reluctantly did it for a while before saying goodbye in person, and the old man enthusiastically sent it to the door.

On the way back, both of them were silent, each thinking about their own thoughts, and suddenly Tang Chizhou said to the professor: "Do you feel that the old man is a little strange today, and what he said is a little insincere, as if he is deliberately perfunctory."

The professor nodded in agreement, sighed deeply and said, "Do you think this matter is dangerous, and he doesn't want to get involved?" I deliberately gave us a call haha".

"I think it's a bit like, in addition, I can't think of any other reason, since this is the case, then this plan can only be implemented by ourselves, so let's go back and discuss it again, and prepare a plan to deal with all possible problems, so as to be foolproof", Tang Chizhou said seriously.

After listening to this, the professor nodded again and again, thinking to himself, it is definitely the right choice to choose Tang Chizhou to come together, and when he encounters difficulties, it is really good to have such a thoughtful person to discuss together.

In the past few days of preparation, the professor and Tang Chizhou have perfected the plan again, and together with the two students, they have repeatedly rehearsed and improved the plan, and taken into account all kinds of possible accidents.

Seven or eight days, it really came in a flash, after a few days of rain, finally on the sixth day, the weather began to clear, and this sunny sky was cloudless, in the eighth day, the four of them did not go anywhere, so they hid in the house to sleep, in order to recuperate, for tonight's action, to prepare.

As soon as it was dark, after the three of them had eaten dinner, they began to prepare the tools for the night's action, prepared two strong flashlights that could hold five dry batteries, pocket watches, ropes, and changed into Scout boots, which were extremely light and strong, and had a strong grip when climbing mountains, so they were very quick and effortless to climb.

What surprised Tang Chizhou even more was that the professor and the two students also prepared several large boxes of "aromatic phosphor", as long as this "aromatic phosphor" is splashed on the body of the person being tracked, it is extremely difficult to remove it in a short time.

Tang Chizhou thought to himself, at that time, he still didn't understand that these three foreigners were carrying so many things into the mountain, and felt that the mountain road was so difficult to walk, why didn't he travel lightly, he didn't expect that there would be so much useful equipment in the bag. It seems that the professor and the two students have made a really tight plan.

When the qiē was ready, the professor took out another revolver from his bag, filled it with bullets, and stuck it in his waist, just in case.
