Chapter 52 Take Medicine
The mansion of the Qingshui Gang is built on the mountain, a beautiful mountain peak in the house stands prominently, the house is quiet and verdant, and the houses are dotted among them, which has a unique flavor. The flowing water and flowers in the house are endless, the green trees on both sides of the road are quite neatly cut, and the stone path under the trees is as smooth as a mirror.
Wang Yi has been living in the Qingshui Gang for a few days, and can clearly feel the prosperity of the Qingshui Gang before, this house is scattered and orderly, a little more looks tacky, a little less looks deserted, there is an indescribable charm hidden in it, the people who built the villa are by no means ordinary.
The subordinates in the mansion fled and scattered, but there were still a few loyal people who stayed in the mansion, holding a meager bounty, and serving the huge mansion with all their hearts.
Wang Yi chose a slightly light plain clothes to put on today, pushed open the door of the house, and walked in the mansion, there were several maids walking by on the road, they had already heard that there were two new worshippers in the house, thinking about it, Wang Yi smiled and greeted them one by one, strolling on the path.
Since he saw Xiao Wenxuan that day, it has been difficult for Wang Yi to see her, and after inquiring, he learned that he had gone out to deal with the affairs of the gang.
Wang Yi could only shake his head regretfully, feeling a little hungry in his stomach, and came to the kitchen of the Qingshui Gang while asking for directions.
As soon as they saw Wang Yi's arrival, everyone stopped what they were doing and asked Wang Yi respectfully, "Mr. Wang." ”
Wang Yi waved his hand and motioned for them to do their work, Wang Yi glanced casually, and saw in a corner that the clerk was sitting there by a stove, slowly fanning the fan.
Wang Yi walked up to Uncle Wen and said, "Uncle Wen, who are you?"
Uncle Wen heard a familiar voice, looked up, and it turned out to be Wang Yi, "Mr. Wang is so Yaxing, come to the kitchen, isn't he hungry." ”
Wang Yi scratched his head a little embarrassed, and said embarrassedly: "I can bear it, I can hold it." ”
Uncle Wen laughed, and no longer teased Wang Yi, and kept swaying the fan in his hand.
"Uncle Wen, what are you?" Wang Yi looked at the stove in front of Uncle Wen, wrinkled his nose, why did he smell a smell of medicinal herbs?
Uncle Wen explained: "I'm sick, grab some soup by myself." ”
As he spoke, he picked up the medicine jar on the stove, poured it into a large bowl, and slowly filled it into the food box. Then he said goodbye to Wang Yi and left.
Wang Yi smiled, watched Uncle Wen leave, stood up, asked the kitchen steward for a dessert, and ate it while strolling.
After walking for a while, Wang Yi quickly finished the dessert in his hand, walked to the stove, Wang Yi put down the plate, took out the residue inside and prepared to burn it, and suddenly saw the residue left over from the paperwork.
With curiosity, Wang Yi took out a piece of cloth from his arms, grabbed a part of the medicine residue and put it to his mouth, and sniffed it carefully.
Bitterness mixed with the fragrance of medicine poured towards Wang Yi's nose, Wang Yi coughed twice, Wang Yi didn't know much about medicine, but some basic truths, Wang Yi still understood, he couldn't see what was in the medicine residue, so he could only quietly put away the medicine residue and walk out casually.
In addition to the kitchen, Wang Yi quickly walked to Ma Shun's yard, and soon found Ma Shun sleeping on a chair, and Wang Yi stepped forward to wake him up.
"Brother Ma, hurry up, and I've made a big discovery. ”
Ma Shun opened his sleepy eyes, looked at Wang Yi who was close at hand, and said impatiently: "What's the matter, I'm sleeping." ”
"Don't sleep, this old gang leader doesn't look like he's seriously injured, he's poisoned. ”
As soon as he heard Wang Yi's words, Ma Shun woke up instantly, got up, grabbed Wang Yi and asked, "Is this true?"
Wang Yi got rid of Ma Shun, took out the medicine residue he had put away in the kitchen from his arms and handed it to Ma Shun, Ma Shun put the medicine residue close to his nose, sniffed it carefully, and then picked up a little medicine residue with his index finger, put it in his mouth, and tasted it carefully.
"It smells of three grasses. ”
Wang Yi was a little puzzled and said, "Three green grasses." ”
Ma Shun returned the medicine residue to Wang Yi, "Yes, these three green herbs are antidote holy medicines, but they are very rare, so they are expensive." ”
Wang Yi looked at the medicine residue in his hand, touched his chin and said, "It seems that the things here are not as simple as we imagined. ”
Ma Shun looked at Wang Yi, who was thinking for a while, and asked, "What do you think?"
"These three green grass and clear water gangs won't store too much, so one day they will run out, and then it will be our chance. ”
"What can I do, kidnap Xiao Wenxuan directly, that's a dream, I've carefully observed it in the past few days, that woman is at least a Qi practitioner of Tongxuan, maybe she is still a martial artist who doesn't know the realm. ”
Wang Yi frowned and asked, "Wufu?"
Ma Shun patiently explained: "Wufu is a way of cultivation created by those who can't practice on the side of Guichu, based on their own martial arts, constantly polishing themselves, and finally being able to achieve the goal of ascension. ”
This is a bit novel, no wonder the book says that the Southern Chu people are outstanding and spiritual, and someone can create this kind of cultivation method, Wang Yi feels that this trip is not in vain.
"Therefore, we may not be able to secretly bring Xiao Wenxuan back. ”
Ma Shun slapped his thigh, his brother could be regarded as dispelling the idea of secretly kidnapping Xiao Wenxuan, and he did not waste his own explanation.
"What then?"
Ma Shun spread out his hands and signaled that he had no choice, "Wait, there will be a shortage of the three green grasses sooner or later, and we will wait and see what happens." ”
Wang Yi nodded, there is no way now, if Xiao Wenxuan doesn't really go back with them, and when the time comes, it will be a kind of helplessness for Ma Shun and Wang Yi.
At night, Wang Yi and Ma Shun, who were about to rest, were taken to the lobby of the Qingshui Gang by the servants, and Xiao Wenxuan had been waiting for a long time in the lobby, next to Xiao Wenxuan, there were three people sitting on chairs, watching the arrival of Wang Yi and Ma Shun, observing the two of them.
Wang Yi and Ma Shun were also looking at them, and one of them was a middle-aged man, wearing a long knife, with his arms crossed, looking at the two of them.
The second man looked a little skeletal, with a blue turban tied to his hair, and his face was pale.
The last man looked a little too old, with a gray beard that contrasted with a black outfit, and a sword dangling from his waist.
"Now that you're all here, let's introduce you. ”
Xiao Wenxuan pointed to the middle-aged man wearing a double knife and said, "This is my father's friend, the predecessor of Zhou Wu who is called a sword slave in the rivers and lakes. ”
Zhou Wu got up and hugged his fists at everyone and said, "Old man Zhou Wu, I've seen you." ”
Everyone saluted Zhou Wu one after another, and Zhou Wu immediately sat down when he saw this, and no longer spoke.
Xiao Wenxuan nodded, pointed to the pale man again, and introduced: "This is my scholar of the rivers and lakes of Southern Chu, Wu Zhong. ”
Wu Zhong leaned on the chair, got up slowly, and said weakly: "Xiaosheng Wu Zhong, this is polite." ”
Ma Shun was a little worried that this guy would not be able to breathe and pass out directly.
"As for this senior, that is the old generation of Jianghu people in our Jianzhou City, Zhao Yan. ”
Zhao Yan smiled, stroked his beard, and nodded.
Xiao Wenxuan pointed to Wang Yi and Ma Shun, "These two are brothers in the family, one is named Wang Yi and the other is Ma Shun, and their cultivation cannot be underestimated. ”
Wang Yi and Ma Shun got up one after another and greeted everyone with their fists.
Xiao Wenxuan's face was full of tiredness, and his willow eyebrows furrowed slightly, "This time it's because my father's medicinal materials are exhausted, and the medicinal materials purchased stay outside the city. ”
Seeing this, Xiao Wenxuan instructed the servant to take out a tray and put it in front of everyone present, and said: "This trip must be full of crises, and Zhou Quan already knew that the three green grasses were exhausted, but fortunately, they didn't know where the medicinal herbs were hidden, so you have to bring the three green grasses back." ”
"Then let Uncle Wen take you to get the medicine, thank you. Xiao Wenxuan waved his hand, and Uncle Wen walked out from behind and smiled at everyone.
After that, Xiao Wenxuan got up and thanked everyone with a fist.
Everyone also got up one after another and saluted Xiao Wenxuan in return.
