The sky was bright, and under the big trees beside the fields, there was a dense crowd of people, all carrying hoes and talking to each other.

"Here we are." A sound of surprise rang out in the crowd, and a farmer pointed to Chen Changsheng with a rough finger on his back.

"Come one by one, all of them are in stock." Walking quickly to the crowd, Chen Changsheng put down the sack, and while calming everyone's emotions, he took out the straw hat in an orderly manner.

"This is the hat that Xiao Yang wears."

"Well, I went to see it yesterday, and he worked for a day, and there was almost no sweat on his head."

There was a lot of discussion in the crowd, and they looked at the straw hat with curious eyes.

"His hat is like mine, do you want one?" Spreading out the straw hats one by one, Chen Changsheng beckoned everyone.

"Well, it's cool to the touch, but it's a bit expensive for twenty wen a piece."

The broad palm touched the straw hat, a deep voice came out from behind the crowd, and a strong man with a two-meter body appeared in front of Chen Changsheng.

"It's a bit expensive, but this hat is easy to work with, and it also prevents heat stroke, so you can earn it back if you don't see a few times of illness."

Chen Changsheng responded, but his tone was resolute and refused to back down.

"It's really to prevent heat stroke." The strong man's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he muttered in a low voice, all the previous hesitations disappeared, he took out a handful of copper coins from his pocket, counted out twenty and threw them on the lawn in front of Chen Changsheng.

Looking at the happy appearance of the strong man, although Chen Changsheng was a little puzzled, he didn't have time to delve into it, and when he raised his eyes, he saw that the surrounding villagers were almost frantically rushing to the stalls, shouting, as if the straw hat didn't want money.

As the shouts were shouted, the copper coins were thrown off, and the straw hats began to disappear at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Chen Changsheng, who was originally going to gradually promote the straw hat, was kept in place, and could only keep taking out the straw hat.

"It's out of stock, everyone will come back tomorrow." Chen Changsheng put his hand into the sack next to him and fished it out, it was empty, and the forty straw hats he brought were actually sold out.

Hearing this, the almost frantic villagers froze in place, their faces showing regret, as if they had missed some rare treasure, while those villagers who had been given straw hats showed deep concern on their faces and left together.

Picking up the snakeskin bag containing copper coins, Chen Changsheng walked towards his second aunt's home.

Along the way, Chen Changsheng was absent-minded, thinking about the faces of the villagers over and over again, the more he thought about it, the more he felt cold, and the more he thought about it, the more he connected them with the villagers in the village before.

Unconsciously, Chen Changsheng had already come to the door of his second aunt's house and knocked on the door.

"Come in." The second aunt opened the wooden door and saw Chen Changsheng looking at the sack and greeted warmly.

Chen Changsheng looked at the second aunt who was walking towards the medicine cabinet, and said coldly: "How are your medical skills?" ”

The hand grabbing the herb stopped, and the second aunt's voice suddenly rose a few degrees: "You are questioning my medical skills." ”

"No, it's just that no one else seems to have come to you for medical treatment except me these days." Seeing that the second aunt was angry, Chen Changsheng's tone was not panicked, and he remembered the surprise of the villagers when they got the straw hats, and asked sideways.

"Those minor illnesses are just a pair of medicines, you can't see the normal."

The second aunt's movements returned to normal, with pride in her tone, but there was a flash of panic on her face.

"Oh." Chen Changsheng answered, stopped talking, looked around casually, and suddenly found that the small door on the right side of the wooden house was not closed, revealing the scene in the courtyard.

The courtyard is still as simple as it was at the beginning, with only one tree and one medicine stove, but it makes Chen Changsheng feel depressed.

I saw that strange tree was full of bewitching red flowers at some point, hanging like congealed blood on the branches.

A gust of wind blew, the flowers kept swaying, but the blood color became more intense, like a bleeding human head.

"Alright." The second aunt wrapped the herbs in yellow paper, looked at Chen Changsheng who was staring at the giant tree, and said in a louder voice: "This is the blood plum, it is said to be a spirit tree, so its flowers are a little different." ”

"No wonder this tree has never been seen." Putting away the doubts in his eyes, Chen Changsheng turned his head, revealing a clear expression, and after paying fifty yuan, he left the second aunt's house with the medicinal materials.

"When I'm done taking the medicine for the past few days, I'll leave here." Out of the second aunt's house, Chen Changsheng recalled the slightly weird behaviors in the village, and secretly thought in his heart.

"Are you carrying the herbs of the second aunt's family?" Chen Changsheng, who was frowning, suddenly heard a shout, and when he looked for prestige, he saw an old man standing at the corner of the path.

Chen Changsheng recognized him, it was the old man who rented the house to him, so he walked a few steps closer and asked, "What's the matter?" ”

Looking at Chen Changsheng who came closer, the old man beckoned and motioned for Chen Changsheng to go over with him.

Seeing this, Chen Changsheng wrapped the snakeskin bag full of copper coins in his hand a few times, turned it into a simple meteor hammer, and said, "I still have something?" ”

There are too many strange things in the village, Chen Changsheng doesn't want to get involved, he just wants to cure Bai Ruoqing's illness quickly and leave the village as soon as possible.

"This herb is poisonous." Staring at the vigilant Chen Changsheng, the old man slowly spit out a few words, and at the same time pulled the trouser legs on his legs, revealing a brown leg with wood lines.

"You're cut off because the herb is poisonous." Looking at the old man's exposed calves, Chen Changsheng's voice was a little restrained.

But I saw the old man shaking his head, dipping his fingers in his mouth to take saliva, pointing it on the wall, writing a few words in a row, and then waving his hand and leaving.

When the old man walked away, Chen Changsheng didn't chase after him, he turned his head to look at the wall on the side, which said succinctly: "Noon field." ”

After picking up the dust on the ground and wiping the saliva on the wall, Chen Changsheng regained his calm face and returned to the courtyard with the sack.

"This village can't stay long, and you can't take medicine." Pushing open the gate of the courtyard, Chen Changsheng sat on the stone bench, looking at Bai Ruoqing, who was still weaving a straw hat, recounting everything that happened today, deliberately ignoring the matter of meeting the old man.

"Okay, listen to you." Listening to Chen Changsheng's description, Bai Ruoqing's movements became slower and slower, his face was full of shock, and it took a long time before he responded.

"Don't do anything today, rest well, and recharge your batteries." Chen Changsheng looked at Bai Ruoqing, his tone was flat, but he said it in a commanding tone.

"Then you can go shopping with me." Putting down the thin bamboo strip in his hand, Bai Ruoqing felt a little idle for a while, and said in a somewhat pleading tone.

"It's okay, let's buy some dry food on the way." Chen Changsheng carried the copper coins in the sack, just about to prepare some materials on the road, so he decisively agreed to Bai Ruoqing's request.
