"Come on, look, the best healing medicine, the exclusive secret recipe, specializing in the treatment of all kinds of external and internal injuries, take one drop and get immediate results, drink two drops of live ......"
The slightly immature voice sounded in a stall in the south of Yunluo City, and passers-by were attracted by this sound and stopped in front of this medicine stall, looking at the young man who was shouting with interest, as well as the so-called medicine stall.

It's a bit reluctant to call it a medicine stall, even if it's a mobile medical stall in a half-hung man, it's several times better than this, and this young man's medicine stall is quite simple, just a few large and small bottles and cans on the ground. What's even more eye-catching is that in front of the bottle and jar lies an older young man, his eyes closed, not knowing whether he is alive or dead.
The boy ignored the various stares. When there were more pedestrians, he stopped shouting, picked up a small bottle from the ground, and uncorked it.
The area around the simple medicine stall was immediately filled with a strong smell of medicine, which was refreshing and pleasant, and it was obviously not a mundane thing.
When some pedestrians dressed as martial artists heard this, they directly asked the young man, "Little brother, how do you sell this healing medicine?"
"The price? The next sale is a second-grade healing medicine, in principle, as long as you exchange something of the same value, but as long as you have enough silver tickets, it is also negotiable. The boy re-stuffed the bottle and said slowly.
When the onlookers heard this, they shook their heads, it's not that they can't get the silver ticket, this Yunluo City is just a small place, not to mention a first-grade healing medicine, it is the kind of healing medicine that has no grade and is very ordinary, and it can be sold at a good price. A bottle of second-grade healing medicine, that is something that only the City Lord's Mansion and several big families will have, it can be seen that the value is quite high.
The most puzzling thing is that this young man is not very old, his clothes are ordinary, he does not look like a noble disciple of a famous family, nor is he a disciple in the sect or the like of clothing, it is very likely that it is through some shady means to obtain the second-grade healing medicine, and then come to this poor country to sell the goods, normal people generally can't wade through this troubled water.
However, suspicion is suspicion, and these pedestrians are just holding a scene, just surrounding and not buying. But the boy acted indifferent, and he continued to pull his throat and continue to sell his healing medicine.
"Get out of the way, the city lord's escort team will come to enforce the law, and all irrelevant people will get out of the way. A violent voice came from outside the crowd, and the onlookers in front of the medicine stall fell silent and made way for a carriage to pass.
A group of heavily armed men strode towards the young man's medicine stall.
"What's the matter, usually the city lord's escort doesn't appear in this kind of place! don't they only appear when they either collect taxes or collect human lives?"
"Don't talk nonsense, be careful that the captain hears it, your life is at risk. Someone next to him heard this person's question, and quickly grabbed the corner of his clothes to stop the person who had just asked from talking nonsense.
"Looks like this boy is going to suffer......"
"Don't meddle with it! ”
"Let's go, stay out of here, or we may be in trouble when the escort strikes." Someone in the crowd whispered this, and the pedestrians began to move their feet, slowly leaving the improvised medicine stand.
Some warriors were holding shields, and some were holding spears, which was the so-called City Lord's Mansion Guard, and I saw them slow down and approach the young man's medicine stall. Immediately after, a man in the prime of life stopped, raised his left fist into the sky, and the whole team stopped.
Before he could speak, the man in the prime of life stretched out his finger and drew a circle, and the people behind him immediately surrounded the medicine stall.
The boy in the encirclement blinked, and a smile seemed to flash on his face, but soon his face was crying, as if the whole world was his most miserable person.
I saw him crying and said: "I was just passing through Guicheng, and I had no choice but to sell some pills in exchange for a little travel and living expenses." I have no intention of violating the laws of your land, and I hope that all the officials will raise their noble hands and let us two brothers go! You see, my senior brother is about to die......
After that, the young man pointed to the motionless young man lying on the ground with one hand, and wiped his eyes with the other, as if he had encountered some kind of sadness.
The middle-aged man at the head narrowed his eyes, put his left hand on the treasure knife at his waist, stroked his beard with his right hand, and said angrily: "What is your name? Where did you come from? Who allowed you to set up a stall here? Also, how did you get that bottle of second-grade healing medicine? Finally, Xu heard that you were peddling fake medicine here. Now, bring me the truth, or I will be killed!"
Listening to this middle-aged man say "no mercy" very seriously, the young man stuffed the bottle of healing medicine into his inner pocket, his face was as bright as a flower facing the morning sun, and he replied with a smile: "Master Hui, surnamed Ling, named Xiaoye, has been wandering with his senior brother since he was a child. We bought this bottle of healing medicine from an alchemist at a great price in Sichuan and Malaysia, and now we have to sell this bottle of medicine to make up enough money for the journey to Tianyun Prefecture and the medical expenses for treating my senior brother. ”
"Hmph, without the permission of the City Lord's Mansion, you can't set up stalls at will! Violators will be punished with a cane at the least, and at the worst they will be punished on the spot, plus you will be punished by selling fake medicines, and the crime will be increased by one degree, which is enough to kill you on the spot. Ahem, the middle-aged man coughed twice, and then said: "That Ling boy, seeing that you are also a martial artist, I won't talk so much nonsense to you." Hand over the second-grade healing medicine and leave immediately, otherwise you will die!"
The middle-aged man said that, and gently pushed the treasure knife with his left thumb.
Ling Xiaoye laughed dryly, those guards who surrounded him may have seen the slight movements of the captain Xu Dangyang, or they may have heard this laughter, and hurriedly put their spears under martial law, and the tip of the gun was pointed directly at Ling Xiaoye.
"Ahh After speaking, Ling Xiaoye took out a small green bottle from his clothes and offered it with both hands.
"You know each other, but how do you prove that this medicine is the same as you described?" Seeing Ling Xiaoye take out the healing medicine so refreshingly, the guard captain Xu Dangyang pondered for a moment and then asked sharply. He stared at Ling Xiaoye with both eyes, as if he wanted to see what tricks Ling Xiaoye was going to play.
Ling Xiaoye took back the small green bottle, squinted at Xu Dangyang, and said unhurriedly: "If Captain Xu doesn't believe it, then treat this healing medicine as fake." ”
Seeing Ling Xiaoye's answer, the short guards took a step forward and said in a cold voice, "Hmph, dare to talk to the captain like this, it's a long life?" Before the words fell, the spear in his hand stabbed Ling Xiaoye's neck.
"Slow down!" Xu Dangyang said loudly, he walked towards Ling Xiaoye, and drew his treasure knife with his right hand.
When the little man heard this, he stopped his movements and withdrew his spear, thinking that the captain would cut down the kid in front of him.
With a flash of the knife, Ling Xiaoye thought that the knife would slash at him, and immediately showed a panicked look, but he had already taken out a flying knife in his palm, ready to protect himself at any time.
Xu Dangyang lightly swiped the treasure knife, picked it up from the left, and then returned to the sheath in an instant, the movements were smooth, and the momentum was also fierce, obviously he had practiced.
The little man screamed, dropped his spear, grabbed his thighs with both hands, and fell to the ground convulsing in pain. It turned out that his right leg was slashed by the captain's knife, although it was only a cut, but the wound was very deep, and white bones were faintly visible, and the blood was pouring out.
Some of the pedestrians were timid, and they couldn't help but scream when they saw this tragic situation. This captain is ruthless enough, and even his own subordinates can be cut down.
Xu Dangyang didn't look at the miserable state of the little man, but crossed his hands, looked at Ling Xiaoye, who seemed to be stunned, with a solemn expression, and said, "Boy, hurry up and take that healing medicine out and give it a try!"
"Good, good. Ling Xiaoye wiped the sweat from his forehead with his sleeve, took out the small green bottle, pulled the stopper, and dropped two drops of potion into the little man's wound as he spoke.
Taking advantage of everyone's attention, all focused on the wound, Ling Xiaoye quickly stuffed the bottle and withdrew it into his clothes. After doing this, Ling Xiaoye breathed a sigh of relief.
I saw that the little man stopped crying and calling his mother, and he didn't have convulsions, the wound healed quickly, and the bleeding stopped. In this thick medicinal fragrance, the little man's expression changed from pain to nature, obviously, this healing medicine was as magical as Ling Xiaoye said.
Xu Dangyang laughed, obviously very satisfied with the effect of the healing medicine, and suppressed his laughter, he turned his head to Ling Xiaoye and said, "Take it, kid." ”
Ling Xiaoye took out a small green bottle in his hand at some point and handed it to Xu Dangyang. Xu Dangyang took the bottle, took off the stopper, sniffed it carefully, and just like the medicinal fragrance of Fang Cai, he plugged the bottle and put it in the small bag around his waist.
Xu Dangyang turned around and left, and the surrounding guards put away the state of martial law, then lined up in two teams and left with Xu Dangyang neatly.
The originally lively riverside street in the south of the city has become much quieter after the toss of this guard, and the vendors who set up stalls do not dare to shout loudly, for fear of being stabbed by the spears of this guard. But as soon as the escort left, it slowly became lively again, and the shouting continued.
Ling Xiaoye continued to shout: "Come on, look, the new healing medicine is still an exclusive secret recipe, specializing in the treatment of all kinds of external and internal injuries, taking a pack of bottles will be effective immediately, and drinking two bottles will be alive and ......."
An aunt who was watching just now came over, and said to Ling Xiaoye: "You, you, you still dare to sell these things here, even your senior brother can't save them." ”
Ling Xiaoye turned his head sideways, looked at the senior brother lying on the ground, and suddenly smiled: "Auntie, although what I, Ling Xiaoye, is selling, it is not a good medicine, but it is definitely not a fake medicine. Look!"
With that, he took out another small bottle and dropped a few drops of potion to the lying senior brother. Within a few breaths, the senior brother on the ground slowly opened his eyes, slowly straightened his upper body, and his face became ruddy.
"Young man, your potion is good! How do you sell it?" a big man walked over, looking a little incredulous, but he couldn't help but ask.
"It's not expensive, this kind of healing medicine, although it is not as good as the second-grade healing medicine. But the advantage is that the materials are peculiar, the effect is fast, and the price is not too expensive, as long as nine hundred and ninety-eight taels. Ling Xiaoye answered the big man's question with a smile, and then shouted loudly: "There are not many bottles, there are still eight bottles left, and if you buy them, you will earn ......."
Hearing this shout, some people who would have been skeptical gathered around, anyway, the price is moderate, and it is good to buy a bottle for spare. Soon, these healing medicines were sold out, and many people who didn't buy them saw that Ling Xiaoye had other medicines, and they also bought them together, and within a single stick of incense, all the things in the medicine stall were sold out.
While Ling Xiaoye was busy selling medicine, he estimated when Xu Dangyang would come to him for trouble.
