Chapter 027: Heartbeat Black Eats Black
Wu Xuemei smiled slightly and said, "Yes, Miss Ben thinks so too." ”
She turned around and said proudly, "Let's go." ”
When Wu Xuemei and the others walked out of the house, Zhang Qi sat on the ground with a slump of arms, old tears, he didn't dare to make a sound, just howled there, a handful of tears, a handful of snot, but he didn't make a sound.
No matter who saw such a scene, they were all embarrassed, but no one dared to stand up and administer justice to Zhang Qi.
Li Wenjun watched Wu Xuemei leave, and his eyes were hot. Nearly two hundred years of wild mountain essence was taken away by Wu Xuemei like this, what should he do to get this wild mountain spirit from Wu Xuemei's hands?
Coming out of Zhang Qi's house, Li Wenjun followed Sun Jianing back to Sun's house, and Sun Baicao saw the two coming back stupidly, so he asked them what happened.
Sun Jianing even talked about it with comparisons, and told the story again. When Sun Baicao heard this, in addition to sighing that Zhang Qi's life was not good, he repeatedly told Li Wenjun and Sun Jianing not to provoke Wu Xuemei no matter what happened.
Back at his home, Li Wenjun's eyes kept popping up in front of the wild mountain spirit in the red box, and the wild mountain spirit was like a magic spell, hovering in his mind. As long as he gets this piece of wild mountain essence, he can start refining the Qi Gathering Dispersion, and once he refines the Qi Gathering Dispersion, he can quickly cultivate and become a true immortal cultivator.
Li Wenjun couldn't wait to rush to Wu Xuemei, snatch the wild mountain spirit with his hands, and take it for himself. But when he thought of Wu Xuemei's identity, he had to calm himself down.
It is useless to be in a hurry, and if you want to get the wild mountain spirit, it is necessary to analyze: Why did Wu Xuemei "buy" the wild mountain spirit? Is there something behind this?
Zhang Qi's sale of the Wild Mountain Spirit is a public matter, and even if Wu Xuemei buys the Wild Mountain Spirit, she can't stop more people from knowing the fact that she got the Wild Mountain Spirit.
In the Song Kingdom, the county magistrate was just a minor official, and above him, there were prefects, governors, and governors. Don't these people need wild mountain spirits?
Li Wenjun suddenly had a bold inference: Wu Xuemei "bought" the wild mountain spirit in order to pave the way for her father's career? If this is the case, then Wu Xuemei's father, Wu Tao, will definitely send someone to send the wild mountain spirit out of the county seat of Sanshan County and to Fucheng.
If you can intercept the person who sent the wild mountain spirit halfway, wouldn't it be possible to rob the wild mountain spirit?
Thinking of this possibility, Li Wenjun's breathing suddenly became heavy.
His heart moved!
Before the famine, Li Wenjun was still very in awe of the government, but there was a famine in his hometown, which lasted for several months, and the government did not take any action, let alone disaster relief, and did not even send people over to take a look. In Junbao Town, the local lieutenant was even more pitted, and he almost died in the hands of Lao Dao. Here in Sanshan County, the daughter of the county order is so domineering, and she has never seen her parents' official Wu Tao come forward to apologize for Wu Xuemei's behavior.
All this has long made his awe of the government disappear, and now, he is not afraid of the government, let alone "respect", he is now at most worried that he will not be able to confront the power of the government head-on.
As for the halfway robbery, intending to snatch the wild mountain spirit, for Li Wenjun, there is no psychological burden. Why, if she Wu Xuemei can snatch it skillfully, he can't eat black and rob Wu Xuemei's things?
Li Wenjun didn't expect his inference to be really crooked, Wu Xuemei forcibly bought the wild mountain spirit at a very low price, just to pave the way for his father Wu Tao's career. Wu Tao's boss, the prefect is a filial son, and the prefect's father is seriously ill and needs to use herbs that are hundreds of years old to make medicine. However, such medicinal herbs are not so easy to obtain, thinking that Sanshan County is a well-known hometown of medicinal materials, the prefect sent Confucian pharmacists over.
How could he personally deal with medicine farmers, medicine pickers, etc., he directly found Wu Tao and told the prefect's request, Wu Tao and Wu Xuemei, father and daughter, immediately paid attention and asked around for news.
It just so happened that Zhang Qi wanted to sell the wild mountain spirit to save his son. Wu Xuemei rushed over and forcibly bought the wild mountain spirit. Frankly speaking, the wild mountain spirit of the past two hundred years is not expensive to sell for two thousand taels of silver, and Wu Xuemei bought it for only ten taels of gold, which is similar to robbery.
After Li Wenjun had an inference, he had no time to think about it, so he stood guard at the gate of the county government and stared at the errand that entered and exited from the county office.
He remembered what Sun Jianing had told him, the prefect was sick, and he went to the Huichun Hall to ask for a doctor.
The pharmacist who followed Wu Xuemei today came from the Rejuvenation Hall, so it is very likely that the pharmacist was specially invited by Wu Tao and Wu Xuemei's father and daughter from Fucheng, in order to see if the wild mountain spirit is suitable for use in the prescription. Wu Tao wants to send the wild mountain spirit to Fucheng, and there is a good chance that the pharmacist will go back with him.
Li Wenjun didn't stay long before he saw the pharmacist come out of the county government and get into a carriage parked at the door. Subsequently, a yacha drove a carriage carrying Pharmacist Kong, and left the county yacha under the escort of another yacha.
Li Wenjun frowned, three adults, protecting a wild mountain spirit, it was a bit difficult for him to take the wild mountain spirit from their hands. But as long as he can get the wild mountain spirit, no matter how difficult it is, he has to find a way to achieve his goal.
Li Wenjun went to a ready-to-wear shop and bought a few very ordinary and popular clothes, and then went to another store to buy fake beards, fake and other things, and then he found a pharmacy and bought some croton powder under the pretext of constipation. He originally planned to buy Menghan medicine, but the target of buying Menghanyao was too big and it was easy to arouse people's suspicions. In contrast, croton flour is different.
After finding a place where no one was, Li Wenjun dressed himself up, glued a fake beard, put on a fake beard, put on an unobtrusive dress, stuffed a pecan under his tongue, and then rushed to the county town of mule and horse to buy a healthy horse.
After that, Li Wenjun rode on his horse and chased after Pharmacist Kong and others along the road leading from the county seat of Sanshan County to Fucheng.
The county seat of Sanshan County is 200 miles away from Fucheng, and the road between the two cities is not smooth, all of them are dirt roads, which are rugged and difficult to walk. Even if they had a smooth journey, it would take at least two days to reach Fucheng.
Li Wenjun rode a horse to chase after him for a long time, and then he saw Pharmacist Kong and others who were hurrying unhurriedly. He drove straight to the horses, passed behind them, and drove forward for a while, and Li Wenjun saw that there was a tea shed on the side of the road, so he drove the horse to stop outside the tea shed. He turned over and dismounted, went into the tea shed, asked for food, and ate it.
When it was time to settle the bill, he asked the owner of the tea shed that there was a hotel nearby where he could rest.
The proprietor told him that he had walked along the main road for about five miles, and there was an inn there, which was the only one within a radius of ten miles.
Li Wenjun was overjoyed, he hurriedly turned over and got on his horse and galloped along the road, he wanted to go to the hotel first, and make some arrangements in advance, so that he could snatch the wild mountain spirit from the hands of Pharmacist Kong and others.
After about a quarter of the incense, Li Wenjun rushed to the inn, which was a rather simple mule and horse shop, which was prepared for a passing horse team. Before you even set foot in the hotel, you can smell the pungent smell of horses coming from inside.
Someone inside the inn heard the sound of horses' hooves and came out of it, and this man was the innkeeper. He warmly welcomed Li Wenjun inside, and asked people to lead Li Wenjun's horse to the horse pen, wash it, and feed it.
Most of the guest rooms in the mule and horse shop are all bunks, and there are only a few single rooms, Li Wenjun asked for one of them, and then he asked where the thatched house of the mule and horse shop was, and then pretended to be going to the thatched house.
The owner of the mule and horse shop didn't care too much, he asked Li Wenjun to greet him if he had something to do, and then he went to busied him.
Li Wenjun came out of the guest room, walked towards the thatched house, soaked in urine, he came out of the thatched house, did not go back to the guest room immediately, but turned around inside and outside the mule and horse shop.
It was a simple mule and horse shop, with a large courtyard enclosed by a mud wall made of a mixture of loess and wheat straw, which was in some places dilapidated and blocked with thorns.
The layout of the courtyard is clear at a glance, there are two buildings on the west side of the courtyard, shoulder to shoulder, arranged in the north-south direction, of which the building on the south side is the inn, for the people in the hurry to rest and eat, and the north side is next to the inn is the stable.
The stables were made of straw and tree trunks, with tethered stakes and a manger, and Li Wenjun's sturdy horse was tethered here.
The inn is two floors, the upper floor is for people, and the downstairs is a place to eat. The entrance to the inn faces east, and on the two walls facing west and east, each room has a window that allows you to look outside. There are no windows on the south- and north-facing walls, which means that those who live in the inn must come out of the inn and stand at the door of the inn or walk to the stables to see what their mounts are doing.
Soon after Li Wenjun surveyed the inside and outside of the mule and horse shop, Pharmacist Kong, escorted by two yacha, rode into the mule and horse shop in a carriage. It was already dusk, and it was about to get dark.
As soon as one of the yacha entered the courtyard of the mule shop, he shouted and screamed. "Shop, shop, hurry up. ”
The shopkeeper was greeting another group of customers, and they were a little slow to come out. After settling down this wave of guests, he trotted out of the inn, and when he saw that it was two errands, his heart was tight, he nodded and said, "Official, are you eating or cutting?"
The yacha on the horse, with a fierce face, whipped it and said, "Damn, what are you in?
The shopkeeper didn't dare to hide, so he was whipped by him, and he had to be careful, and said, "Official, don't I know that it was a distinguished guest who came to the door? The little one didn't dare to ask the two officials for forgiveness, you see this, okay? The two officials are fighting with me today, whether it is food money or food money, all of them are free, all of them are mine. ”
The beating yacha nodded with satisfaction, he turned over and dismounted, and said proudly: "The best guest room, bring us two, and good wine and food are also prepared for us." Also, the mules and horses of the master will also be served, one less hair, I will peel your skin. ”
"Don't worry, the little one will serve you well. Ladies and gentlemen, come quickly, please inside. The shopkeeper greeted him courteously.
Li Wenjun followed them into the inn, and saw that the owner of the store had already accompanied Pharmacist Kong and the others upstairs, which was to arrange a guest room for them. What made Li Wenjun a little disappointed was that the room where Pharmacist Kong lived was not next to his, and there were two rooms in between.
The room of the pharmacist was on the very edge, and the two rooms of the yacha were next to the room of the pharmacist, and anyone who wanted to approach the room of the pharmacist had to pass through the door of the yacha's room.
Li Wenjun originally wanted to eavesdrop on some news, but now that he sees it, there is no drama, so he can only think of another way.
Li Wenjun found an empty table and sat down, asked for some simple meals, and looked at the movement upstairs.
