Chapter Twenty-Eight: The Book of Strange Medicine

"Don't worry, we're not going out and talking nonsense." Qin Wan said and said to Xing'er: "Xing'er, I'm going out to buy a few medical books, you and Xiao Jun stay here, I'll be back soon." ”

"Gong ...... Miss, I'll go with you! There are so many officers and soldiers outside, I can protect you. Xiao Jun said worriedly.

"No need, you stay here to protect Xing'er."

With that, Qin Wan opened the door from the store and went out.

She glanced at the officers and soldiers searching not far away, and her eyebrows furrowed.

Where these officers and soldiers are searching, it is clear that they are bullying the villagers, and their arrogant and domineering appearance is already accustomed to the fish and meat township at a glance!

These people are really hateful.

It was she who stole the silver, so naturally she couldn't cause trouble to others, Qin Wan found a place, changed into black clothes, and immediately went to the county office.

At this time, it is already dark, and it is convenient to move.

Just as she was about to enter the county office, suddenly, a scholar appeared in her sight.

Is that person?

What is he doing here?

The scholar was dressed in a warbler green silk robe, holding a white folding fan, handsome and elegant, and his demeanor was extraordinary.

The man guarding the door did not dare to slack off, and hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "Who is sir, what are you doing here?" ”

"I'm looking for Xu County's order, you tell him that I have a way to find out the whereabouts of those silvers." The scholar's expression was leisurely, as if everything was under control.

Qin Wan twisted his eyebrows, this person actually came to help this unconscious official?

The gatekeeper was overjoyed when he heard this, and hurriedly went in to report it.

In a moment, he came back again and respectfully invited the scholar in.

Qin Wan wanted to see what this person could find out, so he quietly followed.

Entering the hall, the county commander Xu Zhi hurriedly stepped forward, "What do you call Mr." What's the best way to do it? ”

"You don't have to know my name." The scholar's speech was outstanding, and it was very different from the county order Xu Zhi, "If you want to recover the silver taels, you should immediately withdraw all the officers and soldiers now, and everything is at my disposal." As long as you give me the right to investigate, within three days, everything will be known. ”

He didn't look like he was talking big at all, and his strategizing spirit immediately shocked Xu Zhi.

This man's words are so extraordinary, it seems that he is quite talented, and now that the silver has been lost, it is better to believe him once.

However, this person's arrogance made Xu Zhi uncomfortable, and said: "If the official listens to you, and the thief escapes because of this, and you can't find out the whereabouts of the silver within three days, what should you do?" ”

"Then I'll give you my head." The scholar said with a smile.

Xu Zhi was taken aback by these words, but he didn't expect this person to dare to release such big words.

But at the same time, he also believed in this scholar a little.

"Okay, if you can help the official recover the lost silver, the official will definitely reward you heavily!" Xu Zhi said.

"The reward will wait until the lost silver is recovered, please answer me a few questions, and don't lie at all."

"Just ask."

"How many taels of silver have you lost?"

This first question made Xu Zhi not want to tell the truth.

If these people knew that he had lost more than 400,000 taels and spread the word, the matter would be big, and his black gauze hat might not be able to be saved.

Seeing that Xu Zhi was silent for a long time, the scholar chuckled, "Such a simple question can't be answered, it seems that you don't trust me, so I will leave." ”

As he spoke, he waved his long sleeves and was about to leave in style.

"Sir, wait." Xu Zhi hurriedly stopped the scholar and said embarrassedly: "This official told you that." ”

Qin Wan sat on the beam on the corridor and could see the room clearly, and he could hear their conversation clearly.

This scholar is not leaky about his own affairs, but he has set up a lot of things from Xu Zhi.

She vaguely felt that this person had no intention of coming to the county office.

After answering the scholar's question, Xu Zhi asked, "Does Mr. have any opinions?" ”

"As far as I can see, it's supposed to be a thief. If it weren't for the people around you, how could you know where you hid your silver, and how could you take so much silver away quietly? Scholar said.

Xu Zhi immediately reacted and hurriedly said, "Yes! Sir is right, he must be a thief! I'm going to arrest everyone in the palace!" ”

The scholar stopped him, "Don't worry, I have my own countermeasures, you just need to wait with peace of mind." ”

Xu Zhi arranged a residence for the scholar in the county government, and after the two dispersed, Qin Wan got down from the beam and left quietly.

Although the scholar was stunned for a while, he finally came to a wrong conclusion.

It would be better to narrow the scope to the county office, so that those officers and soldiers will no longer harass the people.

As for whether the scholar will really lose his head if he can't find the silver two, Qin Wan feels that he has no responsibility at all for this kind of thing, even if the scholar dies, the cause of death is his own big words, and it has nothing to do with her.

She came out of the county office and found a bookstore on the street.

Fortunately, the door of this bookstore was still open, and Qin Wan went in and asked, "Boss, are there any medicine books for sale?" ”

The boss was a young man in his thirties, who looked very elegant and had poetry books in his belly, he raised his eyes and glanced at Qin Wan, and said, "The girl is joking?" The medicine books are all treasured by the pharmacy and the doctor, and the small shop only has a subset of scriptures and histories. ”

Qin Wan has a big head, she forgot that this world is different from the previous life, and medical skills are not easy to pass on.

How is it possible to buy a medicine book in a bookstore?

Seeing that Qin Wan's face was sad, the boss said again: "The girl doesn't want to learn medical skills, right?" ”

"So what?"

"The girl is going to apprentice at an old age, and as far as I know, most of the doctors are passing on men to women." The boss reminded.

"Thank you boss for reminding me, I just wanted to buy a medicine book, since there is no one in the store, I quit."

After Qin Wan finished speaking, he left.

After she left, a curtain in the bookstore was lifted, and a woman came over with tea, and said with a smile: "Husband, Mr. Xu came over yesterday, didn't he just happen to entrust you with a book of strange medicine?" ”

"Strange books are to be given to destined people, how can they not know the root and give them away at will?" The boss took the tea, took a sip, and said leisurely.

"Concubine Guan that woman is not an ordinary person, Mr. Xu just sent the strange world medicine book yesterday, and she came today, isn't it fate?"

The boss was unhurried, and said with a smile: "If there is fate, we will see you again in the future, why should Mrs. be anxious?" ”

Coming out of the bookstore, Qin Wan twisted his eyebrows.

It seems that it is not possible to find the medicine book in a while, and suddenly, a thought flashed through Qin Wan's mind.

If the big male protagonist dies, what will become of the world? Will it disappear and she may be able to go back?

No, no, you can't think like this, after all, if this world disappears, then there is a high probability that she will become a powder with her, so it's better to be down-to-earth.

Back at the tailor's shop, the officers and soldiers on the street were gone.

But now, it's completely dark.

In addition to the existing four-bed quilts in the store, the shopkeeper made two more quilts, and this hundred quilts were enough for him to make for ten days and half a month.

Although it has been a long time, she still doesn't know when the flood will be drained, and she still wants everyone to settle down as well.

Suddenly, there was a knock on the door outside the store.

"Is there anyone at home? I'm from the Prosperity Inn. ”

With a familiar voice, Qin Wan suddenly heard that it was the shopkeeper of Xingsheng Inn.
