The Luo people in southern Xinjiang are good at medicine and have close dealings with Qiyuan in Western Shu in the business of medicinal materials.

The previous patriarch of the Luo clan also lost his life because he relaxed his guard when dealing with Xishu.

Chen Changming was rescued by Zhang Fuxing from under the banyan tree that suppressed the qi, but Chen Changming was still injured, and Jin Su helped to take Chen Changming out and send him to Weiming Mountain to recuperate, but if he wanted to heal his injuries, there were a few rare medicinal materials missing in Weiming Mountain.

The medicinal materials in the Luo people's medicine warehouse were piled up, and Luo Shoujun could only rush back to find them in the Luo people's medicine storehouse at the moment, so he asked Chen Changming to be taken care of by Jin Su.

"Patriarch, the batch of medicinal herbs used to pay tribute has not been recovered so far, and now that the succession ceremony of the new emperor of the Feng clan is imminent, it is too late to recover the medicinal herbs, in my opinion, it is better to take out the herbs from the medicine warehouse first, and wait for the matter of paying tribute to pass before discussing. ”

The current patriarch of the Luo Clan Council Hall was pacing back and forth in the hall, and several deacons were lined up on both sides with sad faces.

Meng Qing, as a young generation who was highly valued by the patriarch, was allowed to participate in the clan deliberations, and seeing that several deacons were silent, Meng Qing whispered.

"Are you crazy?"

Before Meng Qing's words fell, a deacon stood up and raised his voice against it.

"Meng Qing, you have been to Xishu, the Emperor of Shu doesn't ask about political affairs now, the new prince Donghuang Taiyi is taking care of the top and bottom of Xishu, let's easily repair the relationship with Xishu, can't we take the herbs traded with Xishu to him at this juncture, right?"

"Doing business and making money is more important than the safety of the Luo clan, or Deacon Duan, don't forget that the previous patriarch died because of the Eastern Emperor Taiyi!"

Where was Meng Qing so easily frightened by a deacon, he immediately spoke-for-tat.

"You-"

"Enough!"

Deacon Duan wanted to say something, but was stopped by the patriarch waving his hand.

"Put the trade with Xishu in the future, after all, the Feng Clan is the royal family of Southern Xinjiang, and the succession of the new emperor is a major event, besides, the Great Elder of the Feng Clan has always been known for his murder, our Luo Clan has already made others suspicious and jealous, let alone settle the truth at this time and open a medicine store, this matter will be decided first. ”

Since the patriarch has spoken, the others no longer insist, but this medicine warehouse is full of rare and precious medicinal materials that the Luo clan has always treasured, and no one can open it unless there is a token of the patriarch, although the succession of the new emperor of the Feng clan is a major event in southern Xinjiang, but just give those rare and cherished medicinal materials to the Feng clan in vain, and the deacons are also secretly distressed.

"I'll leave this matter to you, and after counting the medicinal materials, you must carefully seal the medicine storehouse. ”

The patriarch handed the token to Meng Qing. Meng Qing took it and said that he would definitely do a good job.

After the deacons left, the patriarch kept Meng Qing again.

"You found it back last time Shoujun sneaked out, and this time it looks like I'm going to trouble you again. ”

Compared with the matter of paying tribute to the Feng Clan, the patriarch is more worried about Luo Shoujun who sneaked out again, this kid has always been frizzy and unstable, and last time he was involved in the forced palace of Xishu, and now the clan is busy because of the robbery of medicinal materials, but she ran out again.

"Well, I'll go find it. ”

Meng Qing nodded.

After leaving the council hall, the guards who had been waiting outside the hall immediately followed.

"At the moment, the patriarch has no other way, let's go to the medicine depot first. ”

Meng Qing held the patriarch's token and shook it in front of the guards.

"I knew Uncle would agree, but you were very much taken seriously by him. ”

The sword-wielding guard was clearly dressed as a man, but when he spoke, he spoke softly and clearly, a woman.

The two talked quietly all the way to the medicine storehouse, the medicine store is the most important place of the Luo people, and it is guarded by heavy soldiers, but Meng Qing has the patriarch's token in hand, and the two of them pass all the way unimpeded.

After explaining the intention, Meng Qing and the guards were opened and let into the medicine store, and after entering, Meng Qing took out the account book.

"I'm going to count and have someone come and move the herbs, what do you want to hold on, just because I didn't see it. ”

Saying that, Meng Qing deliberately threw the patriarch token in his hand to the side and on the ground.

The guards hurriedly picked it up.

"Thank you so much, saving someone's life is better than building a seventh-level floating slaughter, I thank you for him first. ”

The guards took off their headscarves and held the tokens in both hands, but it was Luo Shoujun who sneaked out.

"You didn't say who to save. ”

Meng Qing sighed, Luo Shoujun was really used to coming from Xiaohu, and after sneaking out and coming back this time, he hurriedly came to him in a hurry and asked him to trick the patriarch's token, saying that he wanted to find a few rare medicinal materials from the medicine warehouse to save people.

In a hurry, Meng Qing didn't come to ask what was going on, but he still asked for the patriarch's token by paying tribute to the Wind Clan.

"It's a long story, in short, it's to save people, and you don't have to be in such a hurry to prepare for the tribute, and the Feng Clan probably doesn't have the heart to do anything about the new emperor's succession ceremony. ”

The position of the Emperor of the Wind Clan has been vacant for decades, and now that there is a new emperor, it is natural to hold a grand ceremony to announce the world, why does Luo Shoujun say that there is no need to bother to prepare?

"Why is that?"

Meng Qing couldn't help but put down the ledger and followed, wanting to ask clearly.

"The Great Elder of the Wind Clan is dead, and although the new emperor is there, I'm afraid that the position of this emperor can't be settled all at once. ”

When Luo Shoujun spoke, he had already taken the patriarch's token and ran to open the second door, and the patriarch's token was the key to open the second door.

"The Great Elder of the Wind Clan is dead?"

Meng Qing was shocked when he heard this.

"Strange - isn't this door locked?"

Luo Shoujun had just put the patriarch's token into the keyhole of the second stone door, but before he could twist the key, the stone gate moved by itself.

"Why, the medicine depot has always been heavily guarded—"

Meng Qing thought to himself, the medicine depot has always been regarded as an important place for the Luo clan, how could he not even lock the stone gate?

But as soon as he put his hand on the stone door and pushed it gently, the stone door really snapped and opened a crack in the door.

"What other herbs do you need, senior brother?"

"The prescription says that the tiger thorn, yellow essence, phoenix tail ginseng, as well as jade bamboo and blood wind vine. ”

"What do Yuzhu and Blood Wind Vine look like, I knew that I should have let the old man draw them. ”

"Would you like to ask someone—"

"Senior brother, you are stupid, we are stealing something, have you seen anyone steal something and ask his family?"

Luo Shoujun and Meng Qing quietly pushed the door in, but they heard someone rummaging in the medicine storehouse, talking while rummaging.

This is worth it? The medicine depot actually slipped into the thief!

The two of them were very vigilant at the moment, Meng Qing motioned for Luo Shoujun to go out and call someone, Luo Shoujun wanted to let others see that he could still sneak out to deliver medicine to Chen Changming, so he shook his head and was reluctant to go.

"Little junior brother, we seem to have been discovered—"

Luo Shoujun, you and Meng Qing were still hesitating, but they suddenly felt a chill on their necks, when even a sharp sword shining with cold light was against the necks of the two of them.

"Both, I'm just here to get some medicine to cure the disease, or will you two be accommodating?"

The one who was called the little junior brother by the sword bearer came over with a large pile of messy medicinal herbs in his arms, only to see that he was pale with a smile, and he was still in plain clothes, and the most remarkable thing was that he was less than twenty years old, but he already had silver hair like snow.

"Luo Shoujun?"

The silver-haired boy threw aside the medicinal herbs in his arms, but he didn't expect to meet an acquaintance here.
