The pattern of this shop is very similar to that of Anhu City, it is also the front store and the back residence, it is elongated, the door face is not big, there is a yard in the middle as a transition, the counter in the front store is also neat, but it is not the same as the pattern of selling medicinal herbs, just stay in the addition of some cabinets, for putting medicinal materials, the middle yard area is not large, but there is a hundred-year-old pear tree, very conspicuous, it is said that the original owner of the ancestor planted, the current canopy is enough shade, the stone table and stone bench under the tree are complete, there is a small wildflower on the east side of the yard grows freely, blue, red, The green one is good-looking, and a little fragrance hits.

The back room is the living area, divided into two floors, there is a platform on the roof, there are five small rooms, two on the first floor, three on the second floor, kitchen, toilet and living room, it is also a good home business.

Gu Che was quite satisfied with this.

"How's the rest going?" Gu Che asked again;

"Miss Nan Qiao went to Jindu Academy, and she hasn't come back yet, and other shops have also inquired, and they are waiting for news, and the day after tomorrow they will wait for Gang Master Sun to come over and confirm together." Chen Mazi replied;

"Okay, let's get busy" Gu Che took Gu Cheng into the back inner room, found a table and sat down;

"Uncle Cheng, I should call you like this, I am Gu Che, Gu Feng's son" Gu Che came up and directly revealed his identity;

"Are you the son of the Third Young Master? Third Young Master, is he okay?" Gu Cheng said excitedly;

"My father, he's missing," Gu Che said without concealment;

"The third young master is missing? He didn't know anything about it back then," Gu Cheng's old face was full of surprise;

"What the hell happened back then," Gu Che then asked;

"Actually, I don't know the details, this matter starts from a winter twenty years ago, when we were just ordinary farmers who planted medicinal fields, I remember that day because of the wind and snow, I drove a carriage with the eldest young master and the second young master to our medicine field on the mountain, covered the herbs with fluffy grass, kept warm, and prevented the herbs from freezing to death, just when we had just finished the fluffy grass and were about to go back to the hut next to it to rest.

At this time, a young man appeared on the side of the mountain, about twenty years old, the strange thing is that the wind and snow could not affect his movements in the slightest, not even his hair was blown, all the wind and snow came to him and detoured, and later we learned that he was a legendary monk, who seemed to walk unhurriedly, but the speed was actually very fast, such a long distance, the horse had to run for a quarter of an hour on weekdays, but after a while, he walked from the side of the mountain to us.

Then I lifted the fluffy grass by myself, and I was about to step forward to stop it and say, "How can you mess around with other people's herbs, do you know that if you don't get this kind of herbs, you will die." ”

But at this time, the master, that is, your grandfather, stopped me, and his eyes motioned for me to take a look.

I saw that after this person finished reading it, he walked up to several of the herbs that were about to freeze to death, and lightly touched their roots with his fingers, and these herbs instantly exuded vitality, and they grew even better than other herbs.

We were amazed, it was a miracle for those of us who grow herbs.

Then the young man turned around, smiled at us, and said, "I want to customize a batch of medicinal herbs, I will provide the seeds, as well as the cultivation method, pay all the necessary remuneration in advance, and even teach you the kind of exercise that makes the herbs rise from death and rise to the back of death, but the premise is that you only serve me." ”

Only then did I see this person's appearance clearly, his face was very abnormally pale, his black hair hung down behind him, there was no luster at all, and even in the heavy snow, there was no moisture in front of him, which made people feel like a dead man!

His smile seemed very infiltrating to us.

The old man did not immediately agree because of this generous condition, and then said: "We are just a few people, I'm afraid we can't do much." ”

"It's all right, you just need to take care of this acre of land," said the young man;

"How to calculate the reward" only heard the second young master say, and the master glared at the second young master;

"What herbs to grow?" asked the master;

"As for the herbs, I will give them to you later, and at the same time, there will be corresponding methods for you, for people like you who grow medicinal fields, it is not a difficult task, if you pay for it, you can mention it yourself."

"I'm sorry, we can't do this," the old man suddenly refused, we didn't understand it at the time, but now it's very sensible to think about it.

I saw the young man bend down and pick up a small pebble, and then a stone hit the second young master's leg without us even seeing it clearly, and the second young master screamed, and a bloody hole appeared in his thigh.

The eldest young master was in a hurry and was about to rush up desperately, and then he was stopped by the master.

"Let's plant" The old man asked me and the eldest young master to support the second young master, and then stood up and said to the young man.

Immediately, this person gave us seeds, and the money he gave us was something that we couldn't earn for ten years, and then he passed on our exercises, which were the exercises that brought the herbs back to life, and at that time, it seemed that we had taken a big advantage, but we didn't say how much we would harvest in the end.

In the second year, we began to plant that medicinal herb, and it began to grow very slowly, and at one moment the herb grew and saw a lot of branches, which was very different from the finished herb that the young man showed us, but soon winter came, this herb was very fragile, and the branches died quickly, we were startled, and we began to use the exercises passed on by the young man, and began to cultivate this medicinal herb, because I was injured when I was young, I couldn't cultivate, so the transmission of true qi could only be done by the master and the two young masters, and the body almost collapsed, But it still failed to prevent the mass death of the herbs, and only 16 survived in the end, and we thought that we had caused a big disaster, so we thought of a lot of ways to do it, and even thought about escaping.

Soon after, the young man came again, and we gave him the 16 surviving plants, and although he was still expressionless, we could feel that he was still satisfied with the result, and then gave us more money to recruit more people, but only if these planters could not leave the mountain.

Then, we used the money to buy the whole surrounding mountain, bought a lot of slaves, all the people on this mountain, we sent people to watch closely, not allowed any leakage and escape, we supplied the young people's herbs, year by year, our money is getting more and more, we started to do other businesses, the young man does not seem to object, and then in the next two years, we are getting bigger and bigger, and we have achieved the position of the leader of medicinal materials in Anhu City.

From the beginning to the end, the third young master did not let him participate in this, he did whatever he wanted, and the master connived at him, but there was one thing, he could not participate in the cultivation of this medicine, the third young master lost his temper at the beginning, and later he spent all day drinking and became a gentleman.

Because later, the business became bigger and bigger, and because I couldn't practice that exercise, I began to take charge of other medicines and sell them to the capital, and it just so happened that my nephew was also in the capital, and he could take care of it from time to time.

That day, I happened to be delayed by a little thing in the capital, so I didn't go back, and when I went back, I found that something big happened, the entire ancient family was wiped out, only the third young master didn't see anyone alive, he didn't see the corpse dead, and all the people who planted medicinal herbs on the mountain were wiped out.

I didn't dare to investigate any further, and immediately rushed back to the capital, probably because I didn't practice that exercise, so I escaped, and since then I have been pretending to be crazy and stupid in the capital, incognito to this day, I thought that I would die in the capital like this, and I didn't expect to see the descendants of the ancient family. ”

Gu Che listened carefully, and sighed that this grandfather who had not met was indeed prescient, and was not carried away by the pie falling from the sky, and there was no way to know what was destroyed because of it, but it was definitely related to this herb.

"Herbs, herbs" Gu Che thought as he read it, and a bolt of lightning flashed through Gu Che's thoughts.

"What's this herb called?" Gu Che asked

"I don't know what it's called, but this herb is very afraid of cold, and it is easy to freeze to death, but it can't be moved to a warm place in winter, otherwise it will die, and it must be cared for in the cold winter, and then care for it with true qi, so that it can have a certain chance of survival," Gu Cheng said;

"Is it living alone?" Gu Che guessed in his heart;

"Are there any characteristics?" Gu Che then asked;

"The shape is not strange, except that there are no leaves, they are all rhizomes, and there is a leaf at the top that wraps the fruit," Gu Cheng recalled;

"Sure enough, the Li family was wiped out, and my father disappeared, it should all be related to this, who is artificially cultivating Duhuo" Gu Che linked everything, but he only found the reason, the person who started did it very thoroughly, once it was exposed, he was killed.

"Uncle Cheng, you can stay here, and if you open a pharmacy here in the future, you can help watch the store," Gu Che said;

"Young Master Che, you will torture the old slave like this, and you will call me Lao Cheng just like your father." Gu Cheng bent down and said;

"These things have been pressed on my heart for more than ten years, and today I can see the descendants of the Gu family again, it is already God's eyes, I can't be here, the young man who gave the seeds back then has seen me, although I didn't find it again later, but just in case, if it affects Young Master Che, how can I be worthy of the old man who has passed away" Gu Cheng then said;

"Uncle Cheng, you can live with peace of mind, even if that person comes to me, it is not necessarily my opponent, besides, what happened back then happened in Anhu City, this is Jindu, this world is so big, so many years have passed, the chance of encountering it is very small, you can live here with peace of mind" Gu Che said again;

Then he cleaned up the room for Gu Cheng, and then went to Tao's mansion to express the agreement and resignation, Anqi did not come back, but continued to live with Tao Yaoyao, and the two agreed to take advantage of the few days when they were not in school to take a good look at this brocade, and Gu Che followed her.
