Until the fat man walked out of the restaurant, Boss Zhu was shocked and slapped himself again, and suddenly yelled at a little second outside the counter: "Hurry up and clean up that table, don't you see?" After speaking, he yelled at another guy: "It's always so grinding to serve a dish, don't come tomorrow if you don't want to do it?"

Seeing this, Li Ding felt funny, but he couldn't laugh.

Li Ding's brows furrowed slightly, his head suddenly ached, and he had a strange feeling in his heart, he was obviously seeing a fat man for the first time, but he had a faint sense of familiarity. This feeling is very strange, and I can't help but ask Ah Wei: "What is the origin of that fat man?" ”

Ah Wei looked around, and when he saw that there was no one, he whispered back: "This person's name is Du Jian, a fourth-grade alchemist." ”

"He is Du Jian, can the alchemist be so arrogant. Li Ding said, and the strange familiarity in his heart increased a little.

"If it was only the identity of the fourth-grade alchemist, Du Jian might not dare to be so arrogant, the reason why he was like this was only because his surname was Du. Ah Wei said.

Hearing this, Li Ding's mind suddenly hurt violently, the pain came and went quickly, but it still made his body shake.

"What's wrong, Young Master Lei?" Realizing Li Ding's abnormality, Ah Wei and Ah Zheng supported him at the same time.

"It's fine. Li Ding recovered suddenly, but there was some inexplicable more information in his mind.

"The villain heard that Mrs. said that Mr. Lei didn't sleep all night last night, is he tired, do you want to open a room and rest?" Ah Wei said with a little confusion

Li Ding waved his hand and grinned unnaturally.

In the restaurant, it seems that he has not been affected by what happened just now, and after Boss Zhu vented to his buddies, he can be regarded as having regained his calm.

Li Ding stood in place, waiting for the pain in his mind to gradually subside, and then digested the sudden information.

It's not so much information, but actually some memory fragments, which made Li Ding inexplicably learn some things about that Du Jian.

At this moment, Li Ding suddenly had some plans for what he should do next.

After hesitating for a moment, Li Ding slowly walked to the counter and said with a smile: "Hello Boss Zhu." ”

Boss Zhu glanced up at Li Ding, although he didn't know him, but seeing that Li Ding was dressed extraordinarily, and he was still with his attendant, his tense face was instantly stretched out when he said that he would change, and said with a trace of doubt: "Dare to ask ...... this son is"

"Forgive me for taking the liberty to ask, did Boss Zhu mention the withered leaf lotus just now?" Li Ding smiled, and asked directly without beating around the bush.

Knowing that these words seemed to be electrified, Boss Zhu jumped suddenly, lay on the counter with a bitter face, and said in a suppressed voice: "This son, we have never been alive, don't talk nonsense, I don't run a pharmacy, I don't know any withered leaf lotus, and I haven't seen it." ”

"Boss Zhu doesn't have to be like this, there is no malice in the next place, it's just what happened just now...... I accidentally listened to some, please forgive me. Li Ding apologized.

Boss Zhu swallowed his saliva and slowly came back to his senses, and said with a hint of vigilance: "Childe heard it just now? ”

Li Ding smiled apologetically again and said, "Boss Zhu is a businessman, and the reason why he does that has his own reasons, why is it embarrassing." ”

This sentence seemed to speak to Boss Zhu's heart, and he smiled bitterly and said: "Hey, this business is not good, life is not good, I just want to stammer Master Du, but I didn't expect this fart to hit the horse's leg and make Gongzi laugh." ”

After the incident, Boss Zhu was blunt.

"Boss Zhu said with a smile, I actually want to ask one thing below, and I hope that Boss Zhu will forgive me for being abrupt and can tell one or two. With that, Li Ding hurriedly got down to business.

Hearing this, Boss Zhu's eyes rolled and said: "Childe is talking about withered leaf lotus, so concerned about this, is it possible that Childe's family is in the medicinal herb business." ”

"No, but it's also related to medicinal herbs. Li Ding followed the conversation and said, "So I want to ask if this withered leaf lotus is really so scarce in the market?"

"What do you mean by Childe, do you have the goods, then I can draw a string for you. Boss Zhu's eyes suddenly widened, and he suddenly said excitedly.

A businessman is a businessman, and he never forgets things related to interests, so Boss Zhu naturally wants to find a source of goods so as to repair the relationship between him and Du Jian.

"No, no, no. Li Ding hurriedly explained: "Boss Zhu misunderstood, I just think that the withered leaf lotus should not be regarded as the best spiritual source, even if it is scarce, can't you find a little bit in the huge royal city?"

"I'm a restaurant owner, and I know a little bit about medicinal materials, and I don't know anything that is extremely unappointed. Shopkeeper Zhu sighed and said: "I really haven't seen the whole plant of the withered leaf lotus, but it stands to reason that one petal and two petals are also common, but it is strange to say that this thing has suddenly become difficult to find on the market in the past two days, and it has suddenly become a priceless thing." I just hoarded some by chance before, and I knew that when I made a move, I said something big, saying that I had a way. Who knew that the buyer behind it was Master Du, and if I had to take the line down, it would be regarded as offending people. ”

Withered leaf lotus, the appearance is like a dry lotus, in fact, it is full of aura, vigorous, has the miraculous effect of stopping bleeding and reducing swelling, removing saprophytic muscle, it is said that the general wound only needs to be coated a little, it can heal quickly, and at the same time, this medicine also has the effect of strengthening muscles and bones to repair internal injuries, which can be regarded as a miracle medicine for healing.

The main reason why such medicinal materials are rare is that the conditions under which they grow are extremely harsh, or strange and cruel. Because the withered leaf lotus is a parasitic plant, it can only take root and sprout in the living spirit beast, and the flesh and blood of the spirit beast can grow luxuriantly, and any accident may make the dead leaf lotus disappear before it is ripe.

Although the withered leaf lotus is not the best spiritual source, it is a necessary material for some elixirs, making it a scarce medicinal material that can be encountered but not sought.

After recalling, Li Ding remembered some of the contents recorded in the pharmacopoeia of medical books and understood the preciousness of this medicine, so he asked: "There is no Wangcheng, can't you find it anywhere else?"

Who knew that Boss Zhu shook his head and said: "This medicine is out of stock, I think it is likely to be related to the Alchemist Conference, it must have been collected by those alchemists a long time ago, you must know that this thing is not even seen on the black market now." ”

"Black market!" Li Ding's eyes jumped and said, "In this way, if you can find some, you will make a fortune." ”

"Don't say it, those alchemists are richer than the other, and now if anyone can come up with a few dead leaf lotuses in good condition, maybe they can easily exchange them for such a restaurant, I knew that I should have stocked up more before." Shopkeeper Zhu raised his head and looked around, and said with a sigh.

Li Ding was secretly shocked by these words, he didn't know how much this restaurant was worth, but he knew that it was definitely not a small amount.

After chatting for a while, Li Ding gradually had a clearer idea of what to do next.

"Listening to Boss Zhu's words, I have a lot of knowledge, thank you. I wish you a prosperous business, and there will be a period in the future. With that, Li Ding was about to leave.

Boss Zhu seemed to be talking about Xing, first stunned, then arched his hand, and said with a smile: "It's easy to say, that son is coming." ”

Seeing Li Ding walk out of the restaurant, a guy at the counter said: "Boss, that kid is not a local at first glance, he seems to have never been out at a young age, what nonsense are you talking to him?"

"You know. Boss Zhu scolded: "This business is about making friends, and when people come to ask, you have to talk, and if you don't do it, you can make a friend, and it's convenient for you to be convenient with others, do you know." ”

The guy bowed his head in response, but he didn't think much of Boss Zhu's words.

It's just that Li Ding didn't know that he had just gone out with his front feet, and a window on the second floor of the restaurant slowly opened a crack, and a pair of eyes watched him slowly enter the crowd with cold light.

"I've already entered the city, and it's hard for him to fly, do you plan to continue to follow?" asked in a dull voice.

In the private room on the second floor, the veiled Yi Ruxue withdrew her gaze from the outside, looked at Ji Kun on the opposite side and said, "There are no clues yet, but I can feel that I should not be far from the target." ”

"Ruxue, your intuition is different from ordinary people, and you often do things unexpectedly, I have never doubted this talent of yours. As for the situation you reported, I will immediately investigate, but what I didn't expect was how the people of the Zhang family were involved. Ji Kun said.

"Zhang He should be attending the alchemist conference when he returned to the city, and it is unknown how the two came together, so this will be checked by the Taishi. "It's as easy as a piste.

Ji Kun's eyes were cold, and he said: "The identity of the Zhang family is special, there have been people watching over there, I will send someone to continue to keep an eye on it, but it's good not to startle the snake for the time being." ”

"By the way, what's going on with the Jade Dragon Pass, didn't you say that you won't be strictly investigated anymore?" Yi Ruxue suddenly stared at Ji Kundao.

Ji Kun's eyes lit up, and he said: "I found that Li Ding's matter has not been publicized for the time being, and the accident of Yulong Pass I think it should be that the old guy in Heitu secretly sent more manpower, but this kid can also mix it up like this, which is really surprising." ”

"Is that so? Then dare to ask the old lady to tell the Zuo Huguo Gong, this is my task, and ask him not to interfere at will. "It's as easy as a piste.

"Ruxue, you and I both know the personality of Heitu, he can endure it until now, and he has not done it directly, which has already given you enough face as a princess. Ji Kun suddenly said with a look in his eyes.

Hearing this, Yi Ruxue frowned and said, "I didn't expect that the Taishi would also help the old man of the black soil to speak." ”

"Like snow. Ji Kun said sharply: "You have to know the importance of this matter, I know that you are eager to show yourself in front of the king, so I have been waiting for you, but this matter is too complicated, if it can't be solved as soon as possible, you have to stop." ”

"Is this what my father meant?" Yi Ruxue stared at Ji Kun and asked, her eyes flickering.

Looking at Yi Ruxue, Ji Kun was silent for a moment, and a hint of love flashed in his eyes and said, "Actually, you are already very good." However, for a moment, Ji Kun's eyes became sharp again, and he said, "But time ...... You will be given two more days at most. ”

After Ji Kun finished speaking, he got up and left, leaving Yi Ruxue with a solemn gaze.
