As the night deepened, and there were no guests in the inn, the boss glanced at the sky, and said to the waiter, "Okay, you go back first, close the door early today, and ask Chef Meng to leave too." ”

"Okay, boss, I'll go!" The waiter was overjoyed when he heard this, touched his clothes casually, and walked to the back kitchen.

The boss leaned against the counter, his head on his hands, as if he was taking a nap, but if you looked closely, you could see that his ears moved slightly, and when there were two steps leaving from behind, and the sound of the door closing, the boss opened his eyes.

A jade slip appeared on his fingertips, the one he had just taken out of the bag, and his divine sense entered it.

"Ahem!"

As if he had seen something terrifying, he threw the jade slip on the counter and took two steps back.

"What's that?"

He didn't believe in evil and took it over and read it again, and he knew each word on it separately, but when it was combined, it really meant what he understood?

Holding the jade slip in his hand, the boss only felt hot.

"Oh, really, why did it happen around here?" his eyebrows fell, like a 'embarrassment' word, and his two fingers pinched the jade slip.

"Alas!"

sighed for a long time in the store, and the boss reluctantly took out the token, touched the intricate patterns on it, and the inspiration flashed.

······

"This is Baicaotang?" Shen Kongming was in a good mood after eating, and he and Mo Ghost slowly walked to the north street, "This shop is not big!"

"You think it's the Sky Pavilion?" Mo Ghost raised his feet and walked in.

"Senior... What do you need?" There is a waiter in the store, who is not very old, and he has a second-level cultivation of Qi refining, but his eyesight is not bad, and the momentum of these two is different from that of the previous guests, so he dealt with it carefully.

"What's here?" Shen Kongming turned his back and glanced at the boxes on the wall behind him, "Yo, the variety is quite complete!"

"We all have some low-level spirit grasses here, basically all of them from the first to the third order," there are at least hundreds of boxes behind the waiter, pull this shelf to the side, and there is a wall behind it, "In addition, there are some herbs from the mortal realm, if it is not serious, it is enough to use this, I don't know the two seniors..."

"Hmmm..." Shen Kongming touched his nose, "Come by yourself!"

Mo Ghost glanced at him and looked at the little waiter, "I heard that you just changed bosses, I don't know what your name is?"

"Huh?" the waiter was slightly flustered.

"Oh, don't worry, I just wanted to get a shop, but I didn't expect to be preempted by your boss, hasn't it been open for long?" I want to ask, can you let it be given to me," Mo Ghost walked to the hall and sat down, "I'm tired, let your boss come out for a while, let's talk." ”

"Well, wait a minute, I'll call him in the back," the waiter nodded, this is not something he can call the shots, and hurried to the back hall.

"Why don't you just say it?" Shen Kongming leaned in front of the counter and looked at the medicine box behind him.

"What if it's not the person I'm looking for," Mo Ghost leaned back in his chair and knocked on his legs, "Besides, I don't want people to know him for the time being." ”

"Okay," Shen Kongming nodded, "Don't say it, the medicinal materials here are really complete." ”

"The two Taoist friends are polite," a figure hurriedly walked over from the back hall, saw the two people waiting for a slight pause, and finally looked at Mo Ghost who was sitting there, "You two, do you want to redeem this shop?"

"It's not me, it's her!" Shen Kongming was quite interested in the medicine box in the back, and walked into the counter, "Boss, can I take a look?"

"Senior, please poop, you have to be careful of poisonous herbs," Huang Gong said as he looked at the male cultivator.

"I think this pharmacy is good, I wonder if I can borrow a step and talk about it?" Mo Ghost got up and bowed, pretending not to know him.

"Okay, senior, please," Huang Gong pointed behind him, and it happened that the waiter also came over, "Sanqi, I'll go to the back to talk about something, you are in the front, help me entertain this senior, pay attention to some medicinal materials, don't touch the poisonous weeds by mistake." ”

"Yes, boss. The waiter agreed.

Mo Ghost followed Huang Gong to the back hall, which is not small, there is a courtyard, three houses, and untreated spiritual grass is drying in the open space.

"Senior!" Huang Gong saluted.

"It's not bad here," Mo Ghost glanced at it, and finally sat down on the stone chair in the courtyard, "Mainly sold to casual cultivators and mortals?"

"Yes, the cultivation of the subordinates is not high, and the medicinal materials that they came into contact with before are also low-level, even if they go to the city, it is difficult to use them, it is better to be here, the fish and dragons are mixed, and when they gain a firm foothold, they can also hear a lot of news." When Huang Gong replied, he always half-bowed his head.

"It's good if you have your own count," Mo Ghost took out a porcelain bottle from the storage bag, "I came here this time to show you this." ”

Huang Gong raised his head and took the porcelain vase she handed over.

"Taken from a child, who has just measured the spiritual root, and has not yet entered the Tao..." Mo Ghost explained the situation roughly, "I want you to look at his flesh and blood, whether you can tell if he has been poisoned, or what kind of poison he has been poisoned." ”

"Senior, poisoning a child is enough with a very low dose, but now a few days have passed, even if it is poisoned, it may not be possible to find out. Huang Gong's face was embarrassed.

"It's okay, just take a look," Mo Ghost didn't have much hope.

"Yes," Huang Gong opened the porcelain bottle, the flesh and blood inside was about the size of a baby's fist, he took off a knife from his waist, gently cut off a piece, put a layer of gauze on it, and took out a glass bottle from the storage bag, the size of a finger.

"This poison, most of them are mainly harmful to the body, especially blood, is the most discernible poison thing, I accidentally mixed a chromogenic agent with the refined blood, when it comes into contact with a certain poison, it will gradually turn purple, you can use this to try, and I will let a mortal rat eat the flesh and blood to see if there is any change. ”

Looking at his skillful operation, he knew that he had studied this way, Mo Ghost and Huang Gong waited for a while, neither the mouse nor the chromogen changed color.

"Senior..." Huang Gong's face hesitated.

"It's okay, since you can't see the poisoning, that's it," Mo Ghost got up, "You can stay here, I'll go first." ”

"Yes, if the seniors have something, just tell me. Huang Gong sent her out, but when she arrived in the front hall, she didn't see the figure of the male cultivator, leaving only the waiter, "Sanqi, what about the senior just now?

"Boss, the senior said that he went to the Cloud Pavilion first," Sanqi replied respectfully.

"I know," Mo Ghost nodded, presumably Shen Kongming was going to find the steward of the Cloud Pavilion here, "The boss doesn't have to send him off, I'll leave." ”

"Seniors walk slowly. Huang Gong gave up.

"Boss, how are you talking? She didn't force herself to buy the shop, did she?"

"No, do your business honestly, don't ask around," Huang Gong said lightly.

"Aren't I afraid of another boss and fire me? It's rare to meet you and be willing to use me," Don't look at the waiter's young age, he has been working in the pharmacy for ten years, and this time Huang Gong took over and did not replace him.

"Don't worry," Huang Gong also knew his careful color, and was not embarrassed, "I'll go to the back to clean up the medicinal herbs." ”

"Boss, go slowly," the waiter said, returning to the counter.

Huang Gong returned to the back hall and wanted to walk towards the unprocessed medicinal herbs, but when he turned his head, he saw the porcelain vase on the stone table and the locked mouse, so he turned around and went to clean it up first.

He picked up the cage, and without thinking that the door was not closed, the rat fell from it and fell to the ground.

"Tsk!"

He complained, put the cage down casually and was about to catch the escaped mouse, but when he looked down, he saw the seemingly normal mouse, and ran crookedly towards the yard, not in a straight line, as if he was drunk.

"Huh?"

Huang Gong lifted the mouse and struggled in the air lively, and once he put it down, it was really strange to walk.

"What's going on?"

He looked at the flesh and blood contained in the porcelain vase on the table, his heart tightened, and he quickly took out another one from the cage next to him, put it on the ground and tried it first, confirmed that there was no problem, and fed it a piece of flesh and blood.

After waiting for a while, he threw the second mouse on the ground, but he saw that like the one just now, he couldn't stop walking and tilted to the side, his steps were not vain, but he couldn't find the direction.

"Oops!"

Huang Gong muttered, put the mouse away, picked up the porcelain bottle and walked out.

"You watch here, I'll go back!"

"Alas, boss!" Sanqi looked at the back of him leaving, a little unclear, and didn't have time to ask him where he went.

Huang Gong, who had already left, strode towards Yunxiao Pavilion, and just now the senior said that he was going there.

He pinched the storage bag with the porcelain bottle, his hands were sweating, he was careless, through the predecessors described that the child had a stomachache, thinking that it was a medicine acting on the blood or body, and the mouse looked fine, so he felt that it was not poisoned.

But he ignored one of the most important details, the stomach pain described by the child may not be the stomach, but the dantian!

If a child who has not yet entered the Dao is carrying a spiritual root, as long as the poison enters the body, there is a certain probability of causing abnormal growth of the spiritual root, which will then lead to pain. And this child has just measured the spiritual root, so it is naturally possible that this is the case.

Coupled with the performance of the two rats just now, he was sixty percent sure that this child was indeed poisoned, but it was a poison that acted on the brain.

Thinking of this, Huang Gong quickened his pace, only hoping that his predecessors had not left.

In the evening, people were still coming and going outside the Sky Pavilion, and all kinds of monks were shuttling among them, either strolling leisurely or hurrying.

"What do you want?"

As soon as a waiter saw off a guest, he saw a monk approaching him, his face anxious, usually this kind of person is in a hurry, there is something to buy, and the waiter greets him with courtesy.

"I'm looking for someone!" Huang Gong hurriedly said, "A female cultivator, a late Jindan cultivator, is about the height of me, with an ordinary face, wearing a light gray Taoist robe, and a pair of Shunfeng boots on her feet. He said as he gestured.

"By the way, that female cultivator is also here to find someone, looking for a male cultivator in a lilac robe, who is handsome and handsome, and is also a Jindan stage cultivator!" Huang Gong said in one breath, "Both of them are not very old, do you have any impression?"

"What is the male cultivator's last name?"

Out of the shop, a monk in a yellow-brown Taoist robe, with a round belly and a deep voice, but with a kind face, he looked at it with kind eyebrows.

"I don't know about the male cultivator, the female cultivator's surname is Lin. Huang Gong didn't know what the male cultivator brought by his predecessor was, so he left without too much contact, "Do you know if the shopkeeper is still in the cabinet?"

"It was here just now," this person was the shopkeeper in the Cloud Pavilion who had just come over from Young Master Shen, but he had personally entertained him, "but they had already left." ”

"How long have you been gone?" Huang Gong's heart tightened.

"For a while, when the nun came, the two of them left, and by this time they were probably out of the city. When Young Master Shen left, the shopkeeper heard the female cultivator Lin Qi he had called, and with the description of this monk, he was sure that he was looking for them.

"It's getting late, will they still go out?" Huang Gong said anxiously, "Will they stay in the inn?"

"You think it's us, but they're Jindan monks, why do you care about this?" the shopkeeper crossed his arms, "It's not a strange thing to travel at night," he looked at Huang Gong, "You are in a hurry?"

"Yes!" Huang Gong's eyes rolled, "Shopkeeper, I want to ask Yunxiao Pavilion to send a note!"

"Where to send it?" the shopkeeper made a gesture of please, asked Huang Gong to come in and talk, and took him directly to the cubicle.

"Tongling Mortal Realm!" Huang Gong didn't know if his predecessors had left, but listening to her tone, he wouldn't leave for the time being, he could only gamble once, and he had to let his seniors know that there was something wrong with the child's death!

"Oh?" the shopkeeper looked at him, pondering for a moment, his young master was also there, and judging by the familiarity of the two, they should also be friends, "Yes, I will send it to you for free." ”

"Really?" Huang Gong was stunned, but became vigilant, "Why is this?"

"That male cultivator has something to do with my Cloud Pavilion," the shopkeeper got up, "and it has a lot to do with it! The two of them are now training together, and it should be sent over for free, maybe it has something to do with it." ”

"In that case, thank you to the shopkeeper," Huang Gong said.

"It's okay, Daoyou make a transmission note, it's absolutely safe here," the shopkeeper left the compartment, this place is specially prepared for treasure appreciation, he doesn't need to worry about anything, after coming out, he called the waiter, "Wait a while, send the transmission note he made to me on the second floor, I have my own..."

"Crunch—"

"It's coming out so soon?" the shopkeeper turned his head and raised his eyebrows, "Okay, then you can give it to me directly, and I'll arrange it myself." ”

"I'm tired of the shopkeeper. Huang Gong went over and handed the note to the shopkeeper.

He was just sure that this flesh and blood did contain toxins, but he didn't know exactly what poison it was for the time being, and he had to continue to study it, so he had nothing to tell his predecessors, so he simply said what he had found, and then walked out of the compartment.

"Good!"
