Volume 1 The First Entry into the Rivers and Lakes Chapter 8 Buying Medicine
"Senior, you...... Are you still alive?!" the little boy asked in a trembling and startled manner.
"Hmph, or the ghost standing in front of you won't be a ghost!" said the white-gauze woman.
"Uh...... No, no, senior, you misunderstood what I meant, I mean, those people outside are saying that you went to the royal banquet to assassinate the scholar of the border university and was killed on the spot!" the little boy explained.
Hatred flowed out of the white gauze woman's eyes, "Those dozen or so dogs hurt me and kill me?" When she said this, the white gauze woman showed an incomparable domineering, but this momentum passed in a flash, and the white gauze woman sat down weakly.
"Senior, what's wrong with you?" the brother and sister hurriedly stepped forward to support the woman in white yarn.
"I suffered a little skin injury, don't worry! poof!" Before the white gauze woman's voice fell, she spat out a mouthful of blood from her mouth!
The little boy pursed his lips and said in his heart: It's really enough to save face even if you are injured like this.
Of course, the little boy dared to think about it in his heart, he didn't dare to say it, otherwise he was afraid that the silver light would cut his neck again.
The brother and sister took a lot of effort to sit the white-gauze woman in the corner, and the little boy wiped the sweat from his forehead and asked the white-gauze woman: "Senior, did you really go into the palace alone to assassinate the scholar of Bian University?"
"Bullshit, Bachelor! He's just a sanctimonious animal!" the white-gaugled woman scolded through gritted teeth, and the angry white-gauze woman spat out another mouthful of blood.
As soon as the little boy saw the mention of the white gauze woman who was a scholar of the border university, his emotions became excited, and he stopped mentioning the name, "That senior, did you really kill it alone?"
The woman in white gauze looked at the little boy's expectant gaze and nodded.
After receiving the affirmative reply from the white-gauze woman, the little boy's eyes showed a blazing light, one person and one sword, blood flowed like a river, and the princes and generals were all ants!
Just in the little boy's mind, he kept imagining the demeanor of the woman in white yarn lifting her sword into the palace, and the woman in white yarn interrupted his imagination with a voice. "You two, do me a favor!" said the woman in white veil.
The little boy nodded, "Senior commands!"
The woman in white gauze took out a silver tael from her cuffs, "You two go and help me buy some medicinal herbs and casseroles, I need to boil some soup and medicine to heal my wounds, remember, don't buy medicinal herbs only in one pharmacy, run a few more pharmacy and buy them separately!"
"Are you two literate?" asked the woman in the white veil.
The brother and sister shook their heads.
"Then I'll tell you directly, I'm sure you'll remember. When the woman in the white gauze said this, her eyes kept staring at the little girl, as if she was saying this to her alone, which made the little boy can't help but roll his eyes, he is not stupid, he can't remember several medicinal materials!
But then the little boy gave up, what and what is this! dense flowers, castor beans, vitex seeds, chrysanthemums...... The woman in the white gauze said the names of more than 20 herbs in one breath, the little boy had never heard of them, and he finally found that he hadn't remembered any of them when he wanted to write them all down at first!
"That's about it, do you remember?" asked the woman in the white veil.
He looked at his sister curiously, and found that her sister actually nodded, indicating that she remembered!
"You remember it all?!" the little boy looked at his sister in surprise.
The younger sister ignored her, but looked at the woman in the white gauze, and muttered: "Dense flowers, castor beans, vitex seeds, and chrysanthemums...... word for word, and even the order is exactly the same as what the woman in white yarn said!
The white-gauze woman looked wonderful, nodded her head in praise, and said secretly in her heart: Sure enough, I have a fight with that person......! Alas!
"I don't dare to give you too much silver, now the city is full of the eyes of the Wang family and the Bian family, you two little beggars suddenly use so many silver taels to buy medicinal herbs, it is inevitable to be suspicious, which is why I asked you to run a few more pharmacies. The woman in the white veil said.
The brother and sister nodded, took the silver and walked out of the ruined temple towards the city.
Halfway through, the little girl suddenly stopped her brother.
"Hehe, what's wrong?, have you forgotten the name of the herb?" the little boy asked with a smile.
The little girl didn't smile, she looked at her brother with a serious face, "Brother, we helped this white-gauze woman who assassinated the scholar of the border university and made trouble in the Wang family's mansion, if those powerful people know about it, you say, what will happen to the two of us." ”
The little boy was stunned for a moment, then smiled, did not speak, and continued to walk towards the city.
The little girl hurriedly caught up with her brother, "Brother, have you listened to me?"
The little boy stood still, "She is kind to us, if it weren't for her, maybe you and my brother and sister would have died in the hands of Zheng Sizhi, even if you give up this cheap life for her, it will be just to pay off the debt." ”
My sister nodded, "I understand, I'm just afraid that my brother didn't think of this, so tell my brother that no matter what you do, brother, I support it!"
My brother nodded, "Hey, you haven't forgotten the names of those medicines, why didn't I find that you have such a good memory!"
My sister glanced at my brother, "I have a lot of great things, but you just didn't find it!"
While the brother and sister were talking, they didn't notice that there was a person squatting on the roof diagonally opposite them.
Although these two children do not have the ability to threaten her, with the wisdom of that little girl, if she goes to the border mansion or the palace to reveal her whereabouts for the sake of glory and wealth, with her current state, it will be a dead end at that time!
The brother and sister ran around all morning, almost all over the pharmacy in Tianluo City, and finally bought all the medicinal materials, and by the way, they used the remaining money to buy ten buns and bring them back.
When I returned to the ruined temple, I saw that the woman in white yarn was still in the corner, cross-legged, her hands on her two knees, and her eyes closed! The brother and sister didn't dare to disturb her for fear that something would happen to her, so they quietly put the things aside, took out the buns and ate them by themselves.
After a stick of incense, the woman in the white gauze slowly opened her eyes, exhaled a breath of turbidity, glanced at the medicinal herbs placed on the ground, and said to the brother and sister: "Do you two know how to boil medicine?"
The brother and sister glanced at each other, both shook their heads, and the white-gauze woman sighed, got up and began to sort out the medicinal materials, planning to boil the medicine herself.
"Gollum~"
The woman's white veil covered her face, and she couldn't see the expression on her face, but just by imagining it, she knew that her cheeks must be crimson at this time!
The little boy handed the bun he had just bought back to the white gauze woman and said, "I just bought it, it's still hot, do you want to taste it!"
