Chapter 270: Absolute Trust
Seeing this, Li Ding was puzzled and annoyed, after all, the other party was the main woman here, but he knelt down to himself twice, and he really had no choice for a while. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
Fortunately, he simply sat on the ground and said: "Mrs. Zhang is too exalted to me, I am just a casual cultivator, and my realm is too low to learn shallowly, in fact, I don't know alchemy at all, and I can help the shopkeeper there." ”
"Brother Lei, why bother to be too humble, I have heard your knowledge in pharmacology talk from the master, he said that you are a genius, a living pharmacopoeia, if it weren't for God making people make you wrong, you would definitely be able to become a great alchemist. Mrs. Zhang said, with a hint of admiration in her tears.
Li Ding smiled bitterly and listened to Mrs. Zhang continue: "For so many years, I have never heard my lord give such a high evaluation of a person. As an alchemist, although my master's rank is not high, when it comes to pharmacology, I dare to say that there are few people who can compare with him. Not to mention the big one, at least there are not a few in Nanming Kingdom, and he is still quite conceited in this. Mrs. Zhang said, and there was a hint of pride in her eyes.
But immediately Mrs. Zhang's face sank again and said: "But because of this conceit, the master seems to feel that he has almost prepared, but I am worried that it is not enough, otherwise my father-in-law would not have failed one after another back then, and almost lost his life." ”
Saying this, Li Ding somewhat understood, it seems that Mrs. Zhang wanted him to give Shopkeeper Zhang more help in pharmacology, so that Shopkeeper Zhang could be foolproof when refining the pill.
But Li Ding knew very well how many catties he had, and said: "Mrs. Zhang, in fact, I have written everything I know to Shopkeeper Zhang before about the understanding of those medicinal materials on the Danfang, I am afraid that in this regard, I am really powerless." ”
"Although Brother Lei is not an alchemist, it is said that Brother Lei has even read ancient secret books such as Yan Gong's secret records, you must know that this kind of secret records are only possessed by a few major sects, and they are not something that ordinary people can access. Presumably, as Brother Lei, he is bound to have more insights into Dan Fang. Mrs. Zhang's tone was puzzled, but more pleading.
Hearing this, Li Ding finally realized why Shopkeeper Zhang was so enthusiastic and respectful to him, it turned out that the problem was in this Yan Gong's secret record. Li Ding remembered that Huayang only said that the secret record was the treasure of the pharmacy, but he didn't know that it was so important, and now it seems that he was too sloppy.
"Does Mrs. Zhang think I have reservations?" No matter what Mrs. Zhang's purpose was, when it came to her identity, Li Ding couldn't help but feel a little vigilant.
"Brother Lei, don't get me wrong, I didn't mean that, I just ...... It's just that Brother Lei hasn't seen the complete Dan Fang, no. Mrs. Zhang suddenly said.
"That's the ancestral heirloom of the shopkeeper, I can be lucky enough to see some of it, it's already a taboo, how dare I regenerate the mind of watching the whole volume, Mrs. Zhang, don't laugh. Li Ding was taken aback, but he faintly heard something from Mrs. Zhang's words.
"Haha. Mrs. Zhang suddenly smiled bitterly and said: "Maybe in two days, more than a dozen people from the Zhang family will be killed, and I dare to laugh at this time." ”
"What does Mrs. Zhang mean......" Li Ding's eyes lit up, realizing the seriousness of the problem, and knowing that it was indeed inappropriate to say that, but he saw Mrs. Zhang bring forward the things she was holding in her hand.
"Dan Fang is here, and I beg Brother Lei to take a look, with your knowledge, maybe you can save more than a dozen members of my Zhang family with one sentence." After speaking, Mrs. Zhang bowed her head and respectfully put a small roll in front of Li Ding.
Although it is only a three-pin Danfang, but looking at the importance of the shopkeeper's family, Li Ding feels that this Danfang must not be simple, if it is a change of environment and a change of object, Li Ding may not hesitate to accept it. After all, it's not that he covets it, but people begging him to accept it.
"Is this what the shopkeeper means?" Li Ding said with a tight heart.
"It's not. But she didn't want Mrs. Zhang to grit her teeth and deny: "I came to Brother Lei behind my back, although the master can show a part of the Danfang to Brother Lei, but if he goes against the ancestral teachings to take out the whole volume, I think it is absolutely impossible." ”
"Then how can this work!" Li Ding's heart shook violently, and he was surprised, and said: "No, Shopkeeper Zhang trusts me so much, how can I do this behind his back, if I let Shopkeeper Zhang know, how will I look at me." ”
"For decades, my lord has never missed people, as long as it is his friend, that one is not a friend with him. But Brother Lei knows that except for the old man and the brothers, even I haven't seen the content of the Dan Fang. But the master showed it to Brother Lei, which shows that Brother Lei is definitely a trustworthy person, I dare to come to Brother Lei today, and I also believe in Brother Lei's character, does Brother Lei really want to see more than a dozen members of my Zhang family die?"
After Mrs. Zhang finished speaking, the tears in her eyes had disappeared, and they were replaced by a resolute look of trust.
This made Li Ding a little moved, he could feel Mrs. Zhang's trust in him, but he felt that something was wrong, after thinking about it, Li Ding said: "Even if Shopkeeper Zhang has read countless people and thinks that I am trustworthy, isn't Mrs. Zhang afraid that I will leak the Danfang to others?"
"Of course I'm afraid. Mrs. Zhang did not shy away from expressing her worries, and then said: "But what's the use of being afraid, this ancestral pill has been guarded by my family for decades, just because of a fear word, I have never shown it to others, otherwise this pill may have been born long ago." Now, at this critical moment, it may be God's arrangement to meet Brother Lei, if it is hidden like this, I am afraid that this crisis of my Zhang family will not be able to pass. ”
It's just a three-grade pill, it can really have so much energy, as long as the refining can resolve this crisis? Li Ding thought in his heart, this is a matter of life and death, he is not sure that he can really help after reading the Dan Fang, but if he doesn't look at it, once it is really as Mrs. Zhang said, he will not be saved.
After hesitating for a moment, Li Ding stood up and said: "Although what Mrs. Zhang said has some truth, but I can't agree to this matter, unless I get the permission of the shopkeeper Zhang, I will never look at this Danfang." ”
After speaking, Li Ding turned his back and sat down and closed his eyes, ignoring Mrs. Zhang.
After a while, Mrs. Zhang slowly got up, and said with surprise in her eyes: "I didn't expect Brother Lei to be so upright, and he was really said to be in charge." ”
As soon as she finished speaking, a figure flashed in at the door, and it was none other than the shopkeeper.
Shopkeeper Zhang's face was solemn, and he bowed deeply to Li Ding and said: "Rong Zhang He first apologized to Lei Gongzi, the insider has to make such a play, it is really a last resort, and I hope that Lei Gongzi will bear with me and forgive the insider's abrupt behavior." ”
It was only at this time that Li Ding heard the name of the shopkeeper Zhang for the first time, in fact, before Zhang He entered the door, he had already found that there were people outside the house, and he had also determined Zhang He's identity, otherwise he would not have rejected Mrs. Zhang's request so eloquently. It's not that Li Ding had the intention to peek at Danfang, but Zhang He's appearance just explained the doubts in his heart.
It's not that Li Ding doesn't believe that there are really people in this world who can trust each other if they meet once, but it's just a little strange to put this matter on Zhang He. Imagine a person who is so cautious in doing things and values Dan Fang more than his life, how can he let people steal it so easily? Even if this person is Zhang He's wife.
However, at the beginning, Li Ding was really moved by Mrs. Zhang's words, if he hadn't been guarding the moral bottom line, maybe he would have taken over the Danfang. And Zhang He's appearance not only explained his doubts, but also made him understand that this was just a test for him by Mrs. Zhang.
But Mrs. Zhang kept saying how to trust him, but secretly engaged in this kind of small conspiracy, it stands to reason that Li Ding should be angry, but when he turned around and saw the respectful and humble appearance of Zhang and his wife, Li Ding couldn't help but feel soft.
"By the way, Brother Lei, I took the liberty of mentioning the matter of the sect just now, but please believe that my husband and wife have no intention of finding out your identity, and please be sure of Haihan in this matter, all the mistakes are my fault, and it has nothing to do with my master. It seemed to feel Li Ding's displeasure, and Mrs. Zhang also apologized and explained.
"The so-called people's hearts are unpredictable, and it is normal for Mrs. Zhang to do this, so this volume of Danfang in your hand should not be real, right?" Although Li Ding suppressed the anger in his heart, he was also a little unhappy with Mrs. Zhang's actions.
"Although this scroll is also hand-copied by me, the content is the same as the real Danfang, please see it clearly. Zhang He took the scroll from Mrs. Zhang's hand and respectfully sent it to Li Ding.
"It's true. This made Li Ding startled, and the anger in his heart couldn't help but decrease a little, but he was puzzled: "Shopkeeper Zhang can really trust me like this, so he is not afraid of ......."
"Then can I trust Lei Gongzi?" Without waiting for Li Ding to finish speaking, Shopkeeper Zhang hurriedly asked, and his determined eyes shocked Li Ding's heart.
I have only known Zhang He for just two or three days, and Zhang He can be said to have no idea about Li Ding's background, why he can trust him to such an extent, and the anger in Li Ding's heart disappeared in an instant.
In fact, he just knew that Zhang He was outside but didn't say anything, and he also had the intention of deceiving Zhang He's trust, and in terms of pharmacology, it could not be ruled out that Zhang He had the mentality of rushing to the doctor in a moment of crisis.
However, although both sides were a little cautious, Li Ding was ultimately reluctant to link these things with the word conspiracy. After all, even if there is a conspiracy, Li Ding is not afraid, but gradually he is still a little worried about whether he can bear Zhang He's trust.
"I will do my best, and please rest assured that I will not leak half a word to others about this Danfang, otherwise I will not die a good death. Li Ding Zhengse said, taking the scroll in Zhang He's hand.
"Why did Lei Gongzi say this, it should be my thanks. Zhang He said that as soon as he leaned over, he was about to kneel down. Li Ding hurriedly grabbed it and said: "Since this is the case, this matter cannot be delayed, and I ask the shopkeeper Zhang to take the pen and ink immediately." ”
On the side, Mrs. Zhang spoke: "The night is already deep, and it has already disturbed Brother Lei's rest, why don't you ...... it again tomorrow?"
Li Ding smiled and said: "I have rested in the carriage during the day today, so it's okay, it's better for the shopkeeper to accompany me here to watch the Danfang, and there will be a sister-in-law Lao about the pen and ink." ”
When the sister-in-law heard this, Mrs. Zhang was stunned for a moment, and then immediately turned around and walked out of the room with a smile on her face.
