"Ahem...."

Lu Yuan was drinking water from a teacup, and he almost choked on the tea when he heard the words.

"Brother Li, sister-in-law is right, she really didn't neglect me last night and took care of me meticulously," Lu Yuan hurriedly explained: "I have experienced your enthusiasm, and I will definitely come back to visit again when I have time in the future." ”

"That's good, isn't Brother Lu going to be a knife catcher, the assessment will start in a while, remember to come to me."

Li Bai said enthusiastically: "I'll take you to the pharmacy shopkeeper later, with me, he will definitely open the door." ”

"Thank you, Brother Li."

Li Bai patted Lu Yuan on the shoulder, "You're welcome, it's all family." ”

Lu Yuan didn't speak, and said silently in his heart: "Well, people in the same way..."

......

After breakfast, under Zhuang Ya's reluctant gaze, Lu Yuan and Li Bai left the courtyard and set off for the pharmacy.

"Brother Lu, I remember that you bought a lot of medicinal herbs last time, did you run out so quickly?"

Li Bai asked curiously.

Lu Yuan shook his head slightly, "I came this time to purchase another prescription, and there are some rare medicinal materials that may only be heard of by the shopkeeper who often deals with medicinal materials." ”

"I see..."

The two of them arrived at the door of the pharmacy, which was still closed.

Li Bai stepped forward and knocked on the door, and when he saw that no one answered, he shouted loudly: "Old Zhangtou, I know you are inside, it's me Li Bai, hurry up and open the door!" ”

Squeak –

Soon, the door of the pharmacy opened from the inside, and the old man's wrinkled face poked out, "Li Bai? What are you here for? ”

"Bring my friend to buy medicine, my friend is a big customer, why didn't you open it when you knocked on your door yesterday?"

Li Bai propped one hand on the open door panel, and pushed it hard, pushing the door open entirely.

"Oops, it turned out to be Lu Xiaoyou, rude and rude!"

The shopkeeper's dim old eyes saw Lu Yuan behind Li Bai, and immediately released a fine light, bent down to invite the two in, and did not forget to lock the door again.

"Someone knocked on the door yesterday, but I really didn't know it was Lu Xiaoyou....

The two of you also know that there has been a strange outbreak in Snow Ginseng Town in the past few days, and they are begging for medicine everywhere, and all the people who come to me to buy medicine are infected with the disease.

Old man, I'm just a martial artist, my strength is low, how dare I open the door to do business..."

The shopkeeper looked apologetic and invited the two to their seats.

Lu Yuan waved his hand and took out the list of medicinal materials written in advance, "It's okay, the shopkeeper, please take a look, do you have these medicinal materials here?" ”

After taking the list, the shopkeeper gasped, "Lu Xiaoyou, many of these medicinal materials are harmful to the human body, are you sure you want to buy them?" And the price is not cheap, at least fifty-five taels of silver for a piece! ”

"Huh? So expensive! ”

Before Lu Yuan could speak, Li Baixian on the side frowned.

A serving of medicinal materials is generally no more than ten taels, and the last time Lu Yuan bought twenty copies in one go, it only cost two hundred taels, which was within Li Bai's acceptable range.

He boasted about Haikou before, and asked Lu Yuan to buy the money for medicinal materials.

If Lu Yuan comes to dozens of copies like last time, his family will probably be hollowed out.

The shopkeeper hurriedly explained: "These medicinal materials are not ordinary, such as hundreds of years of Mu Nanxing, more than ten years of snow artemisia, very rare, the price is naturally more expensive...

And recently, because of the plague, the prices of all medicinal materials have risen, and the cost of our goods has nearly doubled! ”

"Fifty-five taels is too expensive, cheaper!"

Lieber bargained.

The shopkeeper said slightly apologetically: "That's it, Lu Xiaoyou is also an old guest, I'll wipe you a zero, count fifty taels of silver a piece, and make a hard-earned money, how about it?" ”

"Okay, let's take twenty copies first, pack them."

Lu Yuan didn't bother with the high price, and directly took out a thousand taels of silver tickets from his arms.

Seeing this, Li Bai on the side looked a little embarrassed, and he didn't stop Lu Yuan from paying.

There is no way, even if he sells the house, he will not be able to scrape together so much money in a short time.

The knife catcher makes a lot of money, but most of it is used on himself to improve his cultivation, and the money he can save is very small.

After a while, Lu Yuan carried a large bag of medicinal materials and walked out of the pharmacy under the send-off of the shopkeeper.

"Brother Lu, I was supposed to pay the bill, but I didn't expect this medicinal herb to be so expensive......"

Li Bai looked embarrassed, and touched the silver in his arms a little crampedly, "Either you stay at my house for a few more days and let Brother Wei entertain you well, otherwise I really don't want to go....."

When Lu Yuan heard this, he couldn't help but think of the peach-flavored Zhuang Ya again, and I was afraid that he would not be able to leave it in his heart if he stayed.

Just as he was about to say no, he heard the sound of gongs and drums.

"Bell! Clang! Clang! ”

In the empty streets, the sound was heard far away.

Immediately afterwards, the closed doors of every house were opened, and some residents of Xueshen Town rushed out with excitement on their faces, holding water tools in their hands.

"Quick, it's the master of the circle method who is here!"

"Great, we're saved, go get the holy water!"

The men were fanatical and headed in the direction from which the gong had come.

Lu Yuan, who watched this scene, was a little curious, looked at Li Bai beside him and asked, "Who is this Yuanfa master, who is so popular in your town?" ”

"I haven't heard of it either, where did the bullshit master ....."

Li Bai shook his head, his face full of doubt.

Curious, the two also followed the frenzied crowd forward.

After a while, they came to an open space in the town, which was used for worship and gatherings, and many tables and chairs were arranged.

At this time, the clearing was full of people, all of them were crowded, rubbing shoulders and shouting, "Master Yuanfa!" ”

Lu Yuan's gaze shifted sideways, and the crowd gathered around a high platform, on which sat four or five monks in monk's robes.

The leader is an old monk, with a childish face, kind eyebrows and kind eyes, a face like a full moon, and his eyes are shining, looking like a master of Taoism.

It's just that Lu Yuan keenly discovered that some black tattoos could be faintly seen on the old monk's body, which added a bit of demonic feeling to it.

"This old monk doesn't look ordinary..."

Lu Yuan's eyes narrowed slightly, and after his mental power was enhanced, his perception ability also improved greatly.

This old monk, who was called the "Circle Law", gave him a sense of danger, I am afraid that he is a seven-rank martial artist.

And not only the old monk, but also several other monks on the high platform also have martial arts, at least eight-rank martial artists who have condensed into martial blood.

The old monk stood up, turned the heavy Buddha beads in his hand, squinted his eyes and said, "Amitabha....

Dear donors, the poor monk Dharma is called the round law, I heard that there is a plague shrouded in Xueshen Town, and the people are not living, so they are here to purify all sentient beings and practice the law to drive away diseases! ”

After speaking, the old monk folded his hands and recited the Buddhist scriptures in a low voice.

For a while, the sound of Buddhist scriptures unexpectedly overshadowed the many noisy sounds in the open space and penetrated into everyone's ears.
