Chapter 55: Breeze and Moon
There is a backyard in the pharmacy, and when you enter the backyard, there is the smell of all kinds of Chinese medicine, Qiao Kun doesn't care, just walks forward, and after a while, he really sees the boy who looked like a little girl yesterday.
At this time, he was holding something, and there were two big men next to him.
The two of them had a fierce look on their faces, "It's useless to shout, little girl, ...... things obediently"
Before he finished speaking, he was knocked down by Qiao Kun with a punch. Although they are physically strong and their martial arts skills are not bad, they are still far from Qiao Kun.
"Is that you?" When the little girl saw Qiao Kun relaxing, she couldn't help but hug him and cry.
If it was really a little girl, Qiao Kun would have endured it, but this was a boy after all, Qiao Kun reached out and pushed him away, "Don't cry, aren't you a boy?" What is your name? ”
"My name is Mingyue."
"Mingyue?" This name is too feminine, Qiao Kun couldn't help but speak: "Your name is not very good, too weak, it is better to be called Qingfeng, and be more resolute." ”
Mingyue wiped her tears, "Qingfeng is my senior brother." ”
may be influenced by "Journey to the West", Qiao Kun has always felt that Qingfeng and Mingyue should be common names among the fairy boys.
But he has met two Jinxia boys, but he has not yet met Qingfeng and Mingyue.
At this time, in an ordinary small pharmacy, I saw the bright moon and heard the breeze. Qiao Kun felt a little kind for a while.
At this time, two strong men broke into the backyard, saw such a scene, and shouted: "Boy, you dare to take care of our affairs, don't you want to live?" ”
Qiao Kun was speechless, so he had to report a name, otherwise how would I know who you are?
Thinking so, the two strong men had already rushed up, and Qiao Kun naturally knocked them down easily with two punches.
Since he has already made a move, he has no scruples and helps the pharmacy.
Soon the affected parties fled, and the old man lying on the ground also ran very neatly, which turned out to be pretending.
They still have a conscience, and they took away all the faint people.
The shopkeeper of the pharmacy hurriedly thanked Qiao Kun.
The shopkeeper had a ruddy complexion, and was dressed elegantly, with a mustache seven inches long, and his hair was tied into a bun, with a delicate hairpin passing through, if it hadn't been for a fight just now, he looked very sloppy and messy, and his appearance was obscene, and he looked like a master.
Qiao Kun fought quite strangely in this battle, "Why are these people here to make trouble?" ”
He looked at those people not necessarily on the fly, but premeditated.
"How do I know?" The shopkeeper was also very puzzled.
"Brother, thank you." Mingyue thanked Qiao Kun, although he was a boy, he had a sweet appearance and a good voice.
The shopkeeper asked, "Can I hire you as a guard?" ”
Qiao Kun originally refused, but when he thought of making money, he still asked, "Is it part-time or full-time?" ”
"Huh?" The shopkeeper apparently didn't understand.
Qiao Kun also recognized this kind of problem, so he explained that he still had to collect firewood and did not have enough time.
"Part-time is fine. In fact, it's a deterrent, and we don't fight every day. The shopkeeper learned quickly, and then he remembered something, "If you want to make money, you can also be responsible for helping us collect medicine." ”
After hearing this, Qiao Kun reacted, it turned out that there was still a profession of collecting medicine.
It's really that he is in too good health after practicing the Spirit Crane Dance Empty Strength, he has never been sick, he has never used medicine, and he can't even think of it for a while.
Although he can't use mana, he can walk in the air, and his true qi wings can fly, and it is not an immortal law.
With such means, the cliffs that are difficult for ordinary people to go to are just like walking on the ground for him, and even if he really stumbles and falls, he will definitely not fall to death. It's really convenient to collect medicine.
Qiao Kun asked, "I don't know how much money you can make by collecting medicine?" ”
The shopkeeper did not answer immediately, but led Qiao Kun to the inner courtyard of the pharmacy to discuss in detail.
The inner courtyard of the pharmacy was turned into a mess, and all kinds of furniture, tables and chairs, medicines, and medicinal materials were all messed up. Mingyue is cleaning up.
Qiao Kun felt strange, those people were afraid that it might not be trouble, but more like looking for something.
It's just that this has nothing to do with him, and he doesn't plan to inquire. Just make money with peace of mind.
The shopkeeper lifted up the overturned table and chair and invited Qiao Kun to take a seat, "The price of medicinal materials is naturally determined according to the type, condition, and year of medicinal materials, which cannot be generalized." ”
Qiao Kun understood this, not to mention medicinal materials, even vegetables are the same truth.
The shopkeeper was afraid that the strong enemy would come again, so he didn't let Qiao Kun go, and expressed his willingness to pay to hire Qiao Kun to chat here.
Qiao Kun thought that it was okay now, so he agreed, and said a few words with the shopkeeper.
It turned out that the shopkeeper was surnamed Yu, and he was seventy-six years old, and he also asked for immortals when he was a teenager, but he didn't make a name for himself after all, and when he was older, he bought a house in Chaoge and opened a pharmacy.
After saying a few words and having nothing to say, Qiao Kun asked the shopkeeper for advice on how to distinguish herbs and how to dig herbs.
This is in the shopkeeper at the moment to talk eloquently, "Duhuo this flavor medicine, the stem is round and single, its leaves are pinnate split, dig in early spring, keep its rhizomes, remove fibrous roots and sediment, slice and dry." Its taste is bitter and flat, it can be cold, long-lasting, light and old-resistant. ”
"Poria cocos, cloud pine resin into the ground, no seedlings and leaves and flowers, brown on the outside and white on the inside, can be picked in summer and autumn, its taste is sweet and flat, can calm the heart and calm the nerves, strengthen the spleen and water."
It's just that the shopkeeper still has reservations, and he won't talk about a few common medicinal materials. Instead, he asked Qiao Kun to go to Mingyue to play.
Qiao Kun didn't force him either.
Mingyue had already put her burden away at this time and was cleaning up the yard, when she saw Qiao Kun coming, she shouted sweetly, "Brother." ”
It's a boy. Qiao Kun reminded himself and asked him about the collection of medicine.
Mingyue is a good teacher, and now he broke a branch, drew an image of various medicinal herbs on the ground, and explained its characteristics, habits, picking points, medicinal properties, and what diseases are treated. Although Mingyue's painting is not very good, it is vivid enough.
Qiao Kun asked about some more symptoms, and Mingyue also answered.
Qiao Kun thought to himself, this pair of masters and apprentices still has real materials.
After a while, Qiao Kun had already learned the characteristics of more than twenty kinds of medicines from Mingyue. I also know the treatment of some common diseases.
At this time, a figure climbed over the wall, moving quickly and skillfully.
Qiao Kun was naturally alert, got up hurriedly, and found that the person who came was a young man dressed in black.
The young man looked fourteen or fifteen years old, fair-skinned, quite handsome, or rather, pretty.
If it weren't for his sword eyebrows and starry eyes, showing a bit of male fortitude, Qiao Kun would have thought that he was a girl.
The young man held a sword in his left hand, and there was a hint of murderous aura on his body.
The martial arts are not bad, but they are not enough in front of me. Qiao Kun was about to take him down, but he heard the shopkeeper and Mingyue shouting at the same time.
"Senior brother, you're back!"
"Qingfeng, you're back."
Qiao Kun let down his guard, it turned out that he was Mingyue's senior brother, Qingfeng.
Qiao Kun couldn't help but glance at the shopkeeper, this old man's medicine is okay, his martial arts are worse, and he doesn't want his apprentice's martial arts skills to be bad.
It's just that the apprentices are so handsome, and this old man is afraid that he is not a serious person.
Qingfeng saw that the backyard of the pharmacy was in a mess, and when he saw Qiao Kun, an outsider, he couldn't help but shoot angrily, his body was like a wind, and his sword style was like thunder.
Qiao Kun couldn't help but sigh when he saw it, much stronger than when I was fifteen years old, this young man is such a powerful martial arts cultivator.
When the sword was about to reach him, Qiao Kun dodged sideways, and pressed down with a military fist "Yuwang Kaishan".
He wanted to end the battle with one punch, but unexpectedly, Qingfeng seemed to have a sense, and he actually moved half a step to the side, and at the same time, the old sword move in his hand changed again, directly taking Qiao Kun's vital point, and there was a sense of flowing water between the changes.
This move changed so quickly, why did it feel like fighting against a martial arts legend?
Qiao Kun didn't have time to think about it, his true qi ran naturally, and he was concerned first, and he struck out with a palm and hit Qingfeng in the chest.
The breeze was struck by this, flew upside down for several feet, and passed out.
