Chapter 10 Vulgar things sink around the body, and you are a wild man in the mountains
Early the next morning, Chen Feng staggered out of the compound and came to the market, which he knew best, all in the place where they used to beg. After walking along the long street for a short time, he found a bright medicine shop, and Shi Shiran entered. When the party arrived inside, a little guy nodded and greeted him, Chen Fengxiao handed over the medicine list, and the little guy took it and saw that the smiling face bloomed, led him to the side of the table bed to sit down, set up the tea and bowed his waist and smiled: "Wait, wait!" turned around and walked into the room.
After a while, an old man in his fifties and sixties came out, and the old man said politely with a medicine list: "The little old man's surname is Xu, and he is the manager of Jishengtang, and the medicines required by the guest officer are really many and rare, we only have twenty-two flavors in the goods here, and there are only more than thirty flavors to transfer goods to the head office, I don't know if the guest officer still needs it?"
Chen Feng smiled: "Naturally, I don't know how much to cost?
Steward Xu saw that his words were firm and did not seem to be a lie, so he relied on the small case to write it and handed it over. Chen Fengxiao was startled when he glanced at it, only to see that the list was densely written with a price, and the twenty-two flavored medicines cost more than a hundred taels of silver. Most of these are inexpensive adjuvants and medicines, and if you calculate them all, it is really sky-high.
"These are the best prices in our store, do you think you are satisfied?" asked Steward Xu tentatively.
Chen Fengxiao secretly pinched a handful of silver in his bag, and said indifferently without changing his face: "This is natural, the silver is not a problem, I will come and get it when the goods are complete!" Steward Xu saw that his words were relaxed, and nodded again and again.
"Does Steward Xu know any books on herbal medicines?" Chen Feng asked with a smile.
Steward Xu said: "It's really unfortunate, we only have some ordinary prescriptions in our store, and if you go to the thrift store of the lame man in the front street, you may find old books." ”
Chen Feng smiled and nodded, and then looked for a second-hand bookstore with a polite look. It was also good luck that he really found one, the book was thick and three or four fingers were stained and heavy, but unfortunately the cover was worn out and I didn't know what to call it, and the patterns, medicinal properties, and production surfaces were very detailed. It's just that this book is really strange and expensive and asked Chen Fengxiao for two taels of silver, Chen Fengxiao said that he begged his father to tell his mother, and Tian Cripple gave him five yuan.
As soon as I returned to my residence, I couldn't wait to look up all the medicines I needed, but fortunately this book was complete, and it was all in the book. Chen Fengxiao looked at it carefully, and the more he looked at it, the more cold he became, and secretly calculated that it would cost three or four hundred taels of silver, which was enough to cover the expenses of dozens of ordinary families for a year.
At that moment, I couldn't help pinching the bit of silver in my bag again, and I was silent for a while. After a long time, he suddenly shouted: "His grandmother's, Lao Tzu doesn't believe in this evil anymore!" The tiger fist stopped fighting, and he lay on the bed for half the night, and he didn't know when he fell asleep.
Not far from the outside of Zhongzhou City is a stretch of reckless mountain, because the mountain is many white stones, it is far away, and the fathers and elders are called Bai Miao Mountain. The ancient trees inside are towering to the sky, the peaks and peaks are stacked, and the mountain spirits and wood are abundant. Chen Fengxiao has no other skills and no industry, and after thinking about it, he decided that it is the safest way to go to the mountains to hunt, first, he can get hunting herbs and furs, and it is worth some silver to make a little entry. The second is that hunting can exercise the body and agility at the same time, and "practice in daily life" can be tempered from time to time, and improve day by day.

The summer is gone, and the cold is coming, and it is more than a few months in the blink of an eye. Calculate that it is close to mid-autumn at this time, and the red leaves in Baimiao Mountain are already dyed all over the mountains and forests.
I don't know where it is, in a black pine ancient forest deep in the mountains, there is a lean young man lurking behind the lush branches and leaves at the end of the tree, his face is clear and very familiar, and it is Chen Fengxiao when he takes a closer look. At this moment, I don't know why, I was holding my breath and staring at the bottom of the forest without moving. Follow the place where the gaze falls, only to see a bloody piece of hairy minced meat on top of the rotten leaves, smell the strong fragrance overflowing, and walk very strongly, like a musk sac.
Don't be in a hurry to think about it, and suddenly hear the rustling of the fallen leaves nearby, and suddenly a big snake swims out from between the rocks, with black and brown scales and yellow brown spots. The head is triangular, and behind the dark eyes each grows a two-inch-long red black horn, with a wide mouth and a wide snout, faint fangs, and a tongue that is fearful of hope.
The black-scaled serpent seemed to be attracted by the scent of the musk sac in front of him, and twisted around it, stretching out its dark tongue and whiskers to probe. After all, reptiles don't have much wisdom, and it won't be long before they can resist the temptation of deliciousness, so they catch the opportunity to shoot head-on and bite straight into it. At this moment, there was a slight sound of "boom", and a wide-mouth cloth bag fell on the head, which could cover the black-scaled snake.
"yes, ha!" Chen Feng laughed and cheered, and fell down, reached out and put the cloth bag away, and carefully put it into the leather bag on his back. This kind of black-scaled snake is commonly known as the "black-horned viper", and the adult body on the market is less than five or six taels of silver, and it is valuable. It's a pity that this thing is very rare and timid, and it is not easy to catch it, and Chen Fengxiao also learned the method of finding and trapping from his father by chance when he was a child. Knowing that this blackhorned viper likes the smell of fragrant musk deer, as long as you find its infested traces, put this thing near the entrance of the cave, and ordinary traps can catch it. It was also his luck that he stumbled upon the trail of the blackhorn viper and waited for many days to finally catch it.
The silver was in a good mood, and at this moment he suddenly heard a roar nearby, which was more vigorous than that of cattle and horses. Chen Feng smiled and said, "No!" Before he could think about it, a tall black goods suddenly sprang out of the chaotic bushes behind him, and he was as fast as lightning and rushed straight towards him. Seeing that Chen Fengxiao was unfortunate and swung his shoulders to avoid the past, the black goods couldn't stop his body, and hit his head on a thick ancient pine tree in front of him, and in an instant, the pine towers and needles between the trees were "fluttering" like rain. The black man stood up in pain, roared, turned around and pounced, and then saw that it was actually a huge black bear, fat and fat like a tower.
Chen Fengxiao is resolutely not afraid, his body is like a floating wind, flowing through the gaps, although the black bear is strong, but he can't stick to his clothes, the agility and subtlety of the body are refreshing and breathtaking.
After playing for nearly an hour, the black bear's strength gradually stopped, although it was stupid, it also knew that the person in front of him, although it was delicious, was not easy to mess with, and turned around and ran away. Fang took half a step and suddenly felt a fetter under his feet, and "Boom" was tripped and fell to the ground.
Looking at the black bear again, I don't know when a few thick ropes of noose were wrapped around its limbs, and the other end was tied to a tree. It's okay not to go, but this walk is tightened and can't move. Chen Fengxiao stepped forward and grinned: "Stupid, this was sent to the door by yourself, and you can't complain about others!"
As he spoke, he took out an iron gourd from his pocket, opened it and pulled out a thick porcupine spike with the lid, which was as long as a ruler and hollow like a tube. Don't talk nonsense and go deep into the flank of the black bear, the black bear has long been facing the sky on its back, lying on the ground tired "snort", "smack" panting, plus the thick skin and rough flesh do not feel anything. Immediately, the clear juice was led into the iron gourd by the porcupine thorns, and it took more than a quarter of an hour to drip.
Chen Feng smiled: "It's really a good amount!" turned over his hand and collected the iron gourd, then carefully untied the thick rope of the skein, and slapped it the belly, the black bear roared in pain, rolled a few bones, and went to die.
