The shopkeeper of the pharmacy on the side looked at it for a long time, but he didn't understand it at all, he shook his head embarrassedly, and then said goodbye and invited an old man out.

The old man was calm and relaxed, and came out slowly, with a smile on his face, he first raised his eyes to look at Ding Lei, and couldn't help but be stunned, and then looked at it twice, and he was even more shocked.

The shopkeeper whispered a few words, and the old man was a little surprised, and then said: "These herbs have different names, but I can see through them at a glance, but this clearly does not match the symptoms of the guest officer......

Ding Lei's face sank, it was naturally impossible for this old man to find out his information. However, his face was still indifferent: "The symptoms don't match, it doesn't mean that I won't grab this elixir." ”

The old man said: "I lost my word, but now our Yanshan Town is not peaceful. ”

"Why is it not peaceful? I see that you are all alive and well, but it is like living a life without quarrel with the world. Ding Lei responded.

The old man knocked on the table and said, "You just look at the surface, almost all of our pharmacies have no business, and they all rely on the relief of the imperial court to survive." The reason is that Master Fang's family is dominant, monopolizing all business, although there is a court to protect the development of our Yanshan Town, but in fact, it is also a way to make money, the so-called peace, but we are used to not resisting. ”

Ding Lei's realization is that it is actually for such a reason, Master Fang has such a monopoly, but no one dares to speak, and there is no mob to attack, that is to say, what he is exerting is iron-fisted politics, and whoever dares to resist is a dead end.

In fact, the old man was also lacking in strength, and he continued: "You should understand, we don't have any good medicinal materials here, and the difference is that the people who came to ask for medicine in the past are now gone, do you know how many people have been arrested in Cangyan City?"

"I don't know. "Ding Lei has only been in a secret cell, but he has never experienced it in an ordinary cell.

The old man stretched out five fingers: "At least fifty of them, they are all asking for medicine, but they are forced, I don't know if you are the next one, you better not provoke Master Fang." ”

"Isn't he just a loose man who has learned some martial arts, how can he have something to do with the imperial court and suppress you?" asked Ding Lei.

"It's not a secret, this master has a good business mind, he is the first person to open up the gap with the imperial court here, but he is also the first person to monopolize this place, we used to love him, but now everyone hates him behind his back. The old man smiled bitterly.

Ding Lei thought for a while, and then said: "Then thank you for telling the old man, I'll go to the following ones to ask, if not, I'll take a look." ”

"It's a vain question for you to ask. The old man raised his eyelids and said, "It is impossible to have your four-flavor herbs, especially the last one, the round sun vine, which we call the sun vine here, which requires a lot of light for a long time, and a cool environment to breed, and the environment of our Yanshan Town within a radius of 100 miles is unique." ”

"It's not necessarily that you can't get it, I'll just go shopping. Ding Lei didn't have much time, and he didn't want to disturb the old man anymore.

The old man left at the end of Ding Lei, and repeatedly persuaded: "You'd better do what you can, I see that your martial arts are all lost, and you won't be Master Fang's opponent at all, so whether you steal or take it by force, it is not advisable." ”

This old man actually saw that he knew martial arts, which made Ding Lei quite surprised.

However, he had already swept around the old man, and he didn't have any internal qi, so the old man should be talking about experience.

Ding Lei then came to the next "Fulu" pharmacy under the leadership of the inn maid, this pharmacy was a few points bigger than the previous one, and the same shopkeeper knocked on the table tastelessly, seeing Ding Lei's arrival, he couldn't raise the slightest attitude.

He asked casually: "What herbs does the guest officer want?" We don't have any good herbs here, they are all ordinary. ”

Ding Lei directly called out their behind-the-scenes doctor, who was also an old man, but it was a little similar to the old man before, Ding Lei was about to be curious, but he heard the old man wave his hand, the same words: "You better go, this place is not for you people to stay, ask for herbs, go to the Sanren Alliance to exchange." ”

Before he could speak, he was pushed out by the shopkeeper.

Until he was disgraced, he came to the third pharmacy, which was a delicate pharmacy, and the shopkeeper did not have it, but a woman, who was young, only sixteen or seventeen years old, younger than Ding Lei.

Before Ding Lei could speak, the other party first raised his cheeks and asked: "Is it the loss of vitality or the loss of martial arts?" Sorry, we don't have what you want here, please leave." ”

"I haven't said ...... yet" Ding Lei was very speechless, except for the first one, these two have obviously a bad attitude.

"I saw you come out of the other two before, you must have been blasted out by Min Lao Yi and Min Lao Er. There was no expression on the girl's face, as if she were talking to a piece of wood.

Ding Rai hugged his fists and said: "What you said is very true, they are so similar, could it be that they are two brothers?"

"Not just two brothers, but three brothers. I saw another old man walking out, also very similar, which surprised Ding Lei.

The triplets are not surprised, but the surprise is that the triplets all live to be seventy or eighty years old, which is very rare.

The girl said, "Grandpa, why did you come out?"

Min Laosan said with a smile: "I naturally also learned that someone came to Yanshan Town again, as soon as this person came, there were always a lot of eyeliner watching, I came out just to mention him, where is the best to come and go." ”

"Where do I come from and where I go, I'm not one of those cowardly literati, your eyes can naturally see my state. Ding Leidao.

Min Laosan still smiled gently: "I can see that your physique is indeed different, but your vitality is exhausted, and you can't fight for a long time, and the current Master Fang is a master, not to mention himself, even some people in the court are controlled by him." ”

"How could he be so bold?" Ding Rai asked.

Min Laosan chuckled: "You don't know, my granddaughter knows all this, just let her tell you, I'm old, and I don't want to worry about it anymore." ”

So saying, he turned and went in the tent.

The girl didn't catch up, but sat down and made a cup of tea for Ding Lei, and the innkeeper on the side was sent away by Ding Lei.

Ding Lei's cup of tea, almost all of it, let out a sweet slurp, and said with a faint smile: "This tea is good tea, I don't know what it is brewed?"

"It's traditional wolfberry and other things, but the herbs produced in our Yanshan Town are more special, most of them grow in the cracks of the stone, and when they are picked, they naturally have a natural spirituality, just like the jade hidden in the stone, which is refreshing. The girl chuckled.

"Oh, looks like I'm going to be living in Rock Mountain for a while. Ding Leidao.

"Don't think about the idea of fighting medicinal herbs, most of the medicinal herbs here are controlled very deadly, especially in the current war period, the soldiers are in urgent need of medicinal herbs, and it is understandable for the imperial court to monopolize it like this, but it only gives our people a chance to survive, not financial resources, this is the way to cut off life!" The girl's words suddenly became cold.

It can be seen that in the past, she must have had a good family background, and even because of the existence of the three grandfathers, she opened a pharmacy and turned a lot of money.

Now she has a little more vicissitudes, she looks seventeen or eighteen years old, but in fact, her mental age is far more than that.

Even if it is not the ruin of the family, but for her with good money, it is indeed not as good as before.

Ding Leidao: "My name is Ding Lei, surnamed Ding, Lei, a kind of agricultural tool in ancient times. I don't know what your name is?"

"My name is Min Min. The girl's voice came.

"Min Min?this homonym is good, the meaning is also good, Min is an insect, many feet, but also the main tongue right and wrong, and Min Zizi, flexible and changeable, can deal with a series of problems in a timely manner, although the insect is small, a hundred-legged insect, dead but not stiff. Ding Leidao.

"Hmph, although your word test is good, but what kind of logic are you comparing people to worms?" the girl pursed her lips, seemingly dissatisfied.

Ding Lei laughed: "Insects are not chickens, ducks and fish, whoever slaughters them, isn't it good to be a worm? Heaven and earth, let you be free, and you will not be raised, as a livestock to be killed, to be honest, if I want to be a worm, I have to be a grasshopper, swim in the water, and enjoy the world." Su Shi has a poem: Parasitic mayflies in the heaven and earth, a millet in the sea. Isn't it a good thing to be a mayfly?"

"What are you talking about, what kind of character is Su Shi? Why haven't I heard of it?" Min Min couldn't help asking.

"You don't have to worry about this, it's just an ancient, I love to read, so I'm well-read. Ding Leidao.

Min Min is even more curious about Ding Lei, this white-haired young man is indeed a bit talented, but when he comes here to get medicinal herbs, he can't just learn to show off, what he needs is often martial arts, often power, no matter how Ding Lei looks at it, he looks like a down-and-out son, not like a master.

After thinking about it, she still calmed down, and wanted to dissuade Ding Lei from a few words to prevent Ding Lei from dying here.

So he said: "We're done, you should leave early, I don't see it's early, you're only afraid that staying here will attract more eyeliner, you better be cautious." ”

Ding Lei said: "You are not afraid, what am I afraid of? I have not done anything wrong." ”

The girl Min Min was angry, and her kindness was taken as a donkey's liver and lungs: "I'm so bitter, just in exchange for your words? If you die, die, I'm too lazy to care about you, I'm going to close the door, it often closes at seven or eight o'clock here, I'm in a bad mood today, so I'm going to be early." ”

Ding Lei was about to say more, but was urged by Min Min, and then pushed out the door.

Before he could react, a door bar had been closed, locking the Min Min Pharmacy deeply.

Min Min turned his head and showed a grimace, which made Ding Lei extremely helpless.

Only then did he remember that this Min Min has a lot of strength, and it seems that he has practiced a few tricks, but his internal strength is not too deep, and he only has the cultivation of [Yun Ling] in the early stage, which is already very good in the Central Plains world where many people have no martial arts, at least it is the entry level.

It seems that the people in this whole town can do martial arts, no matter how high or low, at least martial arts can be used as a weapon for self-defense, plus taking their family heirloom herbs for a long time, the strength of the whole body is incomparably great, although this girl pushed him voluntarily, but at least it consumed a lot of Min Min's strength.

Now Min Min is unwilling to take him in, so he can only go to the inn alone, stay in it for a day, stay until tomorrow morning, and then inquire about the situation.
