I don't know if my father was confused, or if he was so busy that he forgot to go out temporarily, this last medicine is not available in the store at all.

It's not that there is no store for the time being, and there has never been, because this flavor medicine is not an ordinary mundane medicine, but a miracle medicine: intoxicating ginseng.

Drunken ginseng?

What is this thing, is it human or ginseng? Zhao Chuan asked.

The shopkeeper said that this is a herb, of course, ginseng, but it is a unique species produced in Lingyin Mountain, and the whole body is red and transparent, as thick as a thumb.

Zhao Chuan said that what is special about ordinary ginseng?

The shopkeeper Wang said that other ginseng leaves have five petals, but this kind of ginseng has seven petals, and the leaves of many years have nine petals, and only one leaf grows in two hundred years, and it is the best to find more than five leaves.

Zhao Chuan said I was referring to the function, what does it matter about the appearance.

The shopkeeper said that of course it matters, the more leaf petals, the more leaves, the longer the years, and the stronger the effect. This kind of ginseng contains the pure essence and true qi of innate herbs and trees, and can be directly absorbed by the human body when eaten, instantly changing the physique. No matter how weak a person is, he can also make up for his true qi after eating it, so both martial artists and cultivators dream of it. Therefore, for many years, it has been a special tribute for the royal family, and it is not seen on the market at all.

Zhao Chuan said strangely, I also studied medicine for a few days, how come I have never heard of such a thing, the grass and trees themselves can also refine true qi.

Shopkeeper Wang smiled lightly, lowered his head and drank tea, and said in his heart that you are young, and there are many things you have never heard of.

Zhao Chuan said, why is this thing called drunken ginseng?

The shopkeeper said that when it was first discovered, it was accidentally discovered by a drunken old herb picker.

This old herb picker loves to drink, one morning drank some wine and went to Lingyin Mountain to collect medicine, but the road that was very familiar to him walked and got lost, and he didn't go out until dark, so he had to temporarily find a cave to live in for one night, and planned to go out of the mountain again the next day.

It was cold in the mountains at night, so the old herb picker drank a few sips of the wine he carried with him to keep out the cold.

When it was almost dawn, I had a dream that a group of little children came to the entrance of the cave and asked him for wine.

The old herb picker couldn't stand the children's begging, and drank a little one by one, but he didn't expect the children to drink it after drinking it, and they still wanted to drink it, and they didn't leave if they didn't give it, and a group of children pulled the old man around and teased him.

The herb pickers had no choice but to open the wine gourd and give them to drink, until the pot was drunk and the children were satisfied and wanted to leave.

However, as soon as the children reached the entrance of the cave, they fell to the ground, which frightened the herb pickers to wake up.

When I opened my eyes, the sky was already bright, and I saw a small ginseng seedling in front of the cave, and the medicine picker was very happy, but if I looked closely, this ginseng was different from what he had picked in the mountains before.

This small ginseng has seven petals, and ordinary ginseng has five petals.

The herb picker carefully dug up one and found that the ginseng was red and transparent.

The herb picker was so happy that he looked at them one by one, and dug up two ginseng trees with many leaves, and then made a few marks near the cave, and then went down the mountain with three ginseng trees.

The old herb picker went back, and there were knowledgeable ginseng medicine merchants who had never seen this variety, and at this time, the little emperor who had fled south was chased by the Hu people in the north and fled here. The accompanying royal family members were helpless, and when they heard that someone was selling this thing, they bought this ginseng for him to eat, thinking that a dead horse would be a live horse doctor, but they didn't expect it to be saved.

Unexpectedly, the effect of this ginseng was extraordinary, and the old herb picker sold the other two trees at a high price and really made a lot of money, and gave this ginseng a name called Drunken Ginseng.

Zhao Chuan smiled when he heard it, it turned out that this name came from like this.

"And what about later? How many trees did the old herb picker go up the mountain and sell again? Zhao Chuan asked.

"Hey, don't mention it, the old herb picker went two more times, and each time he brought back two ginseng trees, and then he didn't want to go again. Later, the old herb picker died in no apparent terms, but it's a pity! The shopkeeper sighed.

"What a pity?" Zhao Chuan said he didn't understand.

The shopkeeper Wang said that he meant that after the death of the herb picker, no one had ever dug up the intoxicating ginseng, so when he took the prescription that his father gave him when he went out, he was immediately stunned when he saw the intoxicating ginseng on it.

"And then?" Zhao Chuan asked.

"Later, I told the owner that my father had prescribed the wrong medicine, because the store didn't have it. I didn't expect that the owner of the family didn't believe me, and said that since Dr. Wang prescribed this medicine, there must be it, do you not want to sell me or are you afraid that I can't afford it? “

"And then? Don't stop, keep talking. Zhao Chuan urged.

The shopkeeper sighed and said that he blamed himself for not being able to hold back his mouth, and he got into trouble.

Shopkeeper Wang took a sip of tea and continued to tell:

Later, there was really no way, so the shopkeeper Wang could only wait for his father to come back and explain. But I waited for a long time that day, and I didn't see my father come back for an hour. He was a little impatient, and he couldn't help complaining in his heart that the patient's head was really a tendon.

The wait was really boring, the shopkeeper Wang couldn't hold back his mouth, and said don't wait, even if Dr. Wang comes back, there is no such medicine, it is really wrong. Even if you don't prescribe it wrong, you can't afford to use this medicine. Because this intoxicating ginseng is so rare and precious, only the royal family can afford to use it, and even if you have money, you may not have the opportunity to buy it.

This man in his forties was not angry when he heard this, but said happily that I am determined to get this medicine today. Because this medicine called intoxicating ginseng is really good, I once saw the emperor take it with my own eyes and get better.

When the shopkeeper Wang heard this, he immediately pouted, and teased Don't talk nonsense, to tell the truth, I usually resell medicinal herbs, I really heard of this intoxicating ginseng who still collects one, but do you have the money to buy it? Look at you, you have walked for dozens of miles with a flat burden and carried a burden, and I heard that my father ran to suffer from the first time you saw your mother's illness, and you couldn't even afford to hire a donkey, how could you afford to buy that rare medicine?

The more the shopkeeper Wang's words were spoken, the more unacceptable they became, but the man was not angry, and after listening to the words of the shopkeeper Wang, he took the flat pole he brought, pressed one end with his hand, shook it vigorously, and only heard a slight thud, and drew a long sword from the pole.

The king's shopkeeper was so frightened that he thought the man was going to kill him.

But the people didn't even look at the king's shopkeeper, and with a slight flick of his wrist, the long sword immediately turned into a thin-bladed steel knife. The sword was dazzling, the cold air was cold, and a black dragon swam back and forth on the blade.

"This is the Xuanlong Treasure Blade, one of the three major treasure knives in the Central Plains, it is worth a fortune, is it enough to exchange it for drunken ginseng?" Han Liao put the sword on the counter and said, "The world thinks it is a sword, but in fact it is also a sword, but everyone who knows this has died under this sword." But you are an exception, because today it is easier to master, whose sword will kill its master? ”

The shopkeeper was so surprised that he couldn't speak, and it took him a long time to calm down, and he asked the man why he had this thing.

"I am, the royal guard...... It was the former emperor who died. The man was a little embarrassed, paused, and sighed lightly, "Alas, don't mention it, it's all in the past." ”

"That's pretty impressive, too!" The shopkeeper Wang's envious expression was overflowing, "It's just that a strong man with a martial arts is not afraid to be so destitute and poor, why did he fall into such a field?" ”

The man did not answer the question of the shopkeeper Wang, but said again, "Is it enough to exchange it for drunken ginseng?" ”

The shopkeeper was silent when he heard this, but his heart was already fluctuating.

This blade is one of the three ancient divine weapons in the Central Plains, although he is not a martial artist, but he has also heard of it. It is said that some people are willing to exchange this thing for a city, and it is really valuable. Now don't talk about changing a drunken ginseng, changing a basket is enough (if there is one).

"The shopkeeper, do you want to change it or not?" The man presented the sword to the king's shopkeeper with both hands, and his eyes shone brightly.

It seems that this man is determined to save his mother, otherwise he would not be so reluctant to cut his love. The king's shopkeeper was heartbroken, and then said, "Oh, seeing that the strong man is so sincere, I can't do it if I don't agree." But if I accept your treasure knife and spread it to everyone in the rivers and lakes, I'm afraid that I won't have the life to help you find that drunken ginseng tonight. ”

The man said don't worry, I was also a royal special soldier, but because the former emperor died suddenly, I had no master, so I had to live among the people. I know the rules better than anyone else, and this sword won't say half a word.

The shopkeeper said, "Admire! Admire! The good will not protect the two masters, but the true and righteous people! With that, he accepted the sword and agreed.

The shopkeeper stopped at this point, bowed his head and wept suddenly.

Zhao Chuan didn't know why, and hurriedly asked why he was crying.

The shopkeeper said that he didn't expect me to receive someone's sword because of greed for money, which caused me a lot of trouble. I agreed to exchange ginseng for a knife, and I got him the drunken ginseng as I wished.

"Doesn't that drunken ginseng say that there is no market, where can it be obtained?" Zhao Chuan didn't let go of every detail and interjected.

The shopkeeper shook his head and sighed, "After the old medicine picker died, he left a tree for his descendants to use in case of misfortune from the world. ”

"It's just that his asking price was too high before, and I couldn't take out so much money for a while, but now that I have to exchange ginseng for knives, I have such a big bargain, how can I not be moved? So I went to the city of Jiangzhou, went to Han's money bank to make usury, bought drunken ginseng, and exchanged it for the man's sword.

"The man's wish to restore his wife's body to perfection is simply astonishing, and he can be as healthy as a young woman."

The more Zhao Chuan listened, the more excited he became, he couldn't imagine that there was really such a primitive single magic herb in the world, it seemed that the effect of the red spirit fruit that he had just escaped into Panlong Mountain when the Zhao Mansion was destroyed was many times stronger.

As a doctor who practices medicine, how can Zhao Chuan not be interested in the exotic flowers and plants in the world, but unfortunately he has not seen what intoxicating ginseng looks like with his own eyes.

Zhao Chuan asked the shopkeeper Wang to continue to tell.

The king's shopkeeper said that the man's wife had recovered, and the man went out again and never came back. But his wife's body is not far away, there is no impermeable wall in the world, and after a long time, others will know that it is my pharmacy that prescribes the prescription, and the medicine is also from me.

"For a while, people who came to seek medical advice flocked to it, and the popularity was so good. But most of the people who came came came to ask about the drunken ginseng, which was obtained from the descendants of the old herb picker, and there was only one tree, and the descendants had already gone away after getting the money, so no one could find this drunken ginseng in the future. ”

"But I'm not afraid that things in the world will be fine, but I'm afraid that someone will find something to do if they have nothing to do. There is that unscrupulous scoundrel ruffian, so he went to the government to sue my father, saying that my family has a special tribute for the royal family, and the officials will come out when they receive the police, and they wish they had something to do every day to get oil and water. So I arrested my father in prison, tried him repeatedly, tortured him to extract a confession, and demanded that my father hand over the rest of the drunken ginseng. ”

"At that time, I went out to pour medicinal herbs again, and I didn't know what was going on at home. By the time I returned, my father had already been beaten to death by them in the lobby of the yamen......"

"Dog officer!" Zhao Chuan took the case, "Diao Min! ”
