Chapter Twenty-Nine: A Chance Encounter with a Treasure

Zhao Lei outside the gate obviously couldn't enter the city today, and the remaining soldiers, because of Duan Yong's departure, didn't embarrass them, just left them in place and returned to the city gate.

The old vegetable farmer looked at the young man in front of him who was helping him, and kept bowing:

"Thank you Gongzi for your help, otherwise I would have to explain my old bones here today."

Zhao Lei hurriedly picked up the old vegetable farmer and hurriedly said:

"Hey! Uncle, what are you talking about, you are so old, as old as my grandfather, how can I bear you to be bullied by those Qiu Ba. ”

Saying that, Zhao Lei's voice fell, and he looked at the soldiers at the door with his spare eyes.

"By the way, my name is Zhao Lei, boy, and I haven't asked the old man for his surname yet."

"That's really a coincidence, the old man, my surname is Zhao, my name is virtuous, and we are still our own family."

"Uncle Zhao, you are going to go into the city to sell wild vegetables, you are so old, why don't you see a family member accompanying you."

Hearing Zhao Lei's inquiry, Uncle Zhao sighed and said:

"This world is bitter, a few years ago, my son was conscripted by the government to serve as a soldier, the court collected taxes again and again, and my daughter-in-law ran away with others because she couldn't stand the poverty of her family, and she had no hope of life.

Now there are only two people left in the family, my grandson and me, and the family lives on two acres of thin fields.

A few days ago, my grandson was seriously ill and couldn't move at home, so it didn't work to hire a barefoot man in the village.

There are no valuable things at home, so I can only pick some wild vegetables and go to the city to exchange money, and invite Lang Zhong from the city to come to the house to see a doctor.

Now that I can't enter this city, what will I do with my bedridden grandson? ”

As he spoke, tears appeared in the corners of Uncle Zhao's eyes.

After listening to Uncle Zhao's story, Zhao Lei couldn't help but sigh, Uncle Zhao's experience was similar to his own.

But this is only a corner of the ordinary poor people of Zhao State.

Zhao Lei listened to Uncle Zhao's words, and while lifting the basket, he went to pick up the wild vegetables scattered on the ground.

The moment Zhao Lei touched this wild vegetable, he only had a clever feeling all over his body, it was this familiar feeling, he actually felt the same qi as chalcedony on this wild vegetable.

Sure enough, his judgment was right, when Zhao Lei saw this wild vegetable for the first time, he had a sense of déjà vu.

In addition, this wild vegetable is unusually tender, and it may have been just a sigh in the past, but in this day and age, it is not common to find such a tender wild vegetable.

Just these wild vegetables, the property that Zhao Lei lost is already worth it, even if he pays a hundred times more, it can't compare to what he is now.

Zhao Lei is not only for the wild vegetables in front of him, it is better to give them fish than to give them fish, he wants to know where to get these wild vegetables.

The qi on this wild vegetable is the same as chalcedony, if Zhao Lei didn't guess wrong, it should be water spiritual power.

Before, he was worried about whether the chalcedony could exhaust the medicinal power in his body, but with these wild vegetables that contain the same water spiritual power as the chalcedony, it may be over, as long as there are enough of them, it will always be consumed.

Maybe you can find the same water-based treasure as chalcedony, which is just right for cultivating the water element.

Zhao Lei did not easily expose his thoughts, so as not to startle the snake, he was ready to get closer to the relationship first, and then slowly set it out.

These fairy grasses, when they fall into their hands, are only used as a last resort to satisfy hunger, or in exchange for some money, they can only be tyrannical things.

But if it falls into their own hands, they can give full play to their effects, and when Zhao Lei successfully cultivates immortals, he will naturally give them some compensation.

Zhao Lei put all these wild vegetables into the basket and asked:

"Uncle Zhao, now you can't enter this city, so what are you going to do next?"

"Hey, let's go home first, my grandson is still at home, the barefoot man in the village, the prescription hasn't been drunk yet, let's drink it first, if something really happens, I won't live anymore."

"Uncle Zhao, what are you talking about, your grandson Jiren has his own natural appearance, and he will definitely get through this difficulty.

If it is convenient, I can show your grandson, maybe the prescription in my hand can just cure your grandson's illness. ”

"Childe's words are true!"

"Uncle, I can't lie to you, what do you have to deceive me?"

After speaking, Zhao Lei laughed twice.

Zhao Lei is not talking nonsense, he usually goes into the mountains to hunt, but he doesn't just rely on hunting for a living.

If he relied on hunting alone, Zhao Lei would have starved to death, and collecting medicine along the way when he went into the mountains to hunt was also a means for him to make a living.

In their village, there were often caravans that came to collect herbs, and they would designate herbs to buy them every time.

It was also during this time that Zhao Lei learned a lot of herbal medicines, and also learned some earthworks to cure diseases and save people.

Besides, even if he really can't cure himself, then there is no black mother-in-law to cover it, as a cat demon who has achieved cultivation, he shouldn't even be able to cure mortal diseases.

After listening to Zhao Lei's affirmative answer, Uncle Zhao rekindled hope in his heart, he was an old man, he had nothing to do with money, he couldn't enter the city, and the prescription of the barefoot man in the village didn't work.

Maybe the man in front of him really has the ability to cure his grandson's illness.

Instead of lying in bed and waiting to die, it is better to give it a try and use a dead horse as a live horse doctor.

The young man in front of him is really a good man, not only to help himself out of the siege, but now he has to treat his grandson's illness, Uncle Zhao doesn't know how to thank him.

He saw that Zhao Lei was still holding the burden in his hand, so he was ready to take it from Zhao Lei.

"Uncle Zhao, you hurry up and take a rest, I'll leave these to the kid."

"How can this trouble you, son, don't look at the old man, I'm old, that body is still okay, I'll just come by myself."

Saying that, Uncle Zhao stepped forward to snatch the burden from Zhao Lei's hand.

Originally, Zhao Lei was his great benefactor, and he couldn't repay him, so how could he let him carry the burden now.

"Uncle Zhao, your body bones are good, my body is good, I will pick and choose, if you want to rob me again, then I can sleep here with a basket, then neither of us should think about touching it."

"Oh, why are you so tough, forget it, you can pick it.

My house is not far from here, and now it's almost time to eat, if you don't dislike it, go to my house to deal with the two of you. ”

Speaking of Uncle Zhao's title to Zhao Lei, he has also changed from a son to a brother, and the relationship has become a lot closer.

"Uncle, when you say that, I'm really a little hungry, so I'll trouble you."
