Chapter 83: Cultivating the Mystery Apothecary
"What do you say? Of course, it's to detoxify your brother. Zhao Shuixian said a little speechlessly.
I sighed and said, "Can a hundred years of wild ginseng detoxify demons?" are you sure?"
"Of course, no one knows this better than I do. Zhao Shuixian said.
"Do you know the king?"
"That's right, but the ginseng is a bit expensive, 680,000. Zhao Shuixian said.
"Shall I pay for this?"
"Your brother, you don't come out?" Zhao Shuixian frowned and looked at me.
I smiled and said, "I'm just kidding, why are you so serious?
"You still have a little conscience. Zhao Shuixian snorted.
"Counting up, Zheng Kangkang owes me 1 million, and it cost 300,000 to get him out of the police station before. "I boiled the oil and poured the sliced pork belly into the pot.
Zhao Shuixian cut and said, "A big man, so stingy, and so clear." β
"By the way, do you know why my second uncle went?" I asked as I stir-fryed.
"Your second uncle?"
"It's Kuiye, don't you know?" I asked, confused.
Zhao Shuixian shook his head and said, "I don't know, Brother Kui didn't tell me, I don't know where he went." β
"Well, by the way, who's the landlord here?" I continued.
Zhao Shuixian said casually: "The landlord's name is Ling Yue, a very charming woman, she was the one who led us when we came, and now that we are on a business trip, Zheng Kangkang's eyes are straight, and he is all over the place." β
"Haha, no wonder you two were in the wrong mood when you came, it turned out that you were jealous?"
"I'm jealous, I'm going to be flattering, and I'm going to kill all the women in the world in seconds. Zhao Shuixian said disdainfully.
"Blow, you have the ability to win Zheng Kangkang tonight. β
Zhao Shuixian laughed and said: "Do you still use your skills to take down that nerd? Don't say it's him, even you and I can take it together." β
"Don't, you're not allowed to enter my room in the future. I hurriedly said, "My grandfather said that boys should protect themselves when they go out." β
A meal was made in small talk, Zhao Shuixian had a good ability to get started, and she handled all the ingredients, especially the green vegetables, very well.
In the evening I had a meal and drank some wine on the stone table in the courtyard.
Zheng Kangkang specially prepared big bones for Rhubarb, and Rhubarb also gave a tooth sacrifice.
The first night I came to Edu was very comfortable, very satisfying, and very happy.
This place is indeed a good place, surrounded by water on three sides, even if anyone comes to trouble in the future, you can find it as soon as possible.
The door of my room is facing the way in, although this pattern is not good for feng shui, but with my current physique, it has long been unaffected by feng shui.
......
Nothing was said all night.
I don't know if Zheng Kangkang and Zhao Shuixian have anything to say in the room, anyway, Du Zhiye and I still respect each other.
Except for hugs and kisses, we didn't do anything other than Yorechi.
We've slept together twice, and we seem to have a tacit understanding with each other.
I am a sane person, and Du Zhiye seems to be becoming more and more rational, and she will not do any action that can arouse hormonal explosions.
Today is the day when Du Zhiye and Zheng Kangkang went to report to the school.
After everyone had breakfast, they were ready to go, Zheng Kangkang and Du Zhiye could only live in the school now, which was a thing that made me more distressed.
However, the school should be safe, because no one in the school knows Du Zhiye's true identity.
And no one followed us on the way here, and I double-checked it when I entered here yesterday.
Because their schools are in two different directions, Zheng Kangkang can only take a car to school by himself.
Zhao Shuixian also asked Zheng Kangkang to report to the sports school on the pretext that he wanted to go to Hubei University to have a look.
The three of them got into the car, and Du Zhiye said happily: "Finally school has started, I want to tell everyone in the dormitory that I am in love." β
"Tut-tut, Zhiye, Xiu'en love dies quickly, you have to pay attention. Zhao Shuixian teased.
Du Zhiye glanced at me and said, "Brother Soul, then let's break this curse." β
I smiled and said, "Zhiye, that...... Zheng Kangkang was poisoned, and he didn't know that he needed a century-old wild ginseng to make medicine to relieve the demon poison. β
"Oh, really poisoned?" Du Zhiye asked in surprise.
Zhao Shuixian said: "That's right, we were afraid of scaring him, so we didn't tell him." β
"Why didn't you say it earlier, there are 100-year-old wild ginseng at home. Du Zhiye said.
Zhao Shuixian shook his head and said: "I have seen the ginseng in the exhibition hall at your house, and it is not really a century-old wild ginseng. β
"Oh, then let's buy one, that thing is not expensive, I remember that a 300-gram 100-year-old wild ginseng in Changbai Mountain was auctioned for 2.22 million yuan. Du Zhiye said.
When I heard 2.22 million, my heart tightened, but fortunately, the one Zhao Shuixian saw was only 680,000.
"It's not so expensive, I read it yesterday, it's only 680,000. Zhao Shuixian hurriedly said.
"Then let's go buy it now, Sister Narcissus, where did you see it yesterday?"
"At the third intersection in front, turn left about a kilometer, there is a pharmacy. Zhao Shuixian pointed to the road.
"By the way, I don't have enough pocket money, I paid a year's rent, and I have 500,000 left, Brother Soul, can I use your one million card first?" Du Zhiye said with some embarrassment.
"Fool, let's divide you and me. I feigned anger and said.
The car stopped in front of the pharmacy, and the name of the pharmacy was a little strange, it was called: Xiuxuan Pharmacy.
The pharmacy is really a pharmacy, with a faΓ§ade of less than 20 square meters, and the door number is also very inconspicuous, which makes this pharmacy even more inconspicuous.
"Sister Narcissus, are you sure it's here?" Du Zhiye asked with some suspicion.
This place doesn't look like a place with 100-year-old wild ginseng.
Zhao Shuixian nodded and said, "That's right, this is it, I have already seen ginseng yesterday." β
The three of them got out of the car, and Zhao Shuixian took the lead in walking in, shouting in his mouth: "Boss, we are here." β
It was dark inside, and there was no light on, but an old kerosene lamp was lit.
This little bit of light has no effect on illuminating the entire pharmacy.
But for me, it's still a clear view.
"It's so dark, is this boss all on the lights?" Du Zhiye said in a low voice.
The three walls of the Xiuxuan Pharmacy are medicine shelves, the kind of medicine cabinets of ordinary Chinese medicine pharmacies.
Looking at the labels on those medicine cabinets, I couldn't help but be shocked.
What ginseng, deer antler, seahorse, gastrodia, cordyceps, reishi, ambergris and so on.
These medicinal materials are all precious medicinal materials, and when you look at the price, good guys, they are basically four-digit prices per gram, and some are even five-digit.
There are also a lot of medicinal herbs that I don't know, and the prices are not cheap.
Even if it is some wolfberry angelica and horsetail that are common in Chinese medicine stores, they are all hundreds of yuan a gram here.
"I'm afraid the medicine in this pharmacy is gilded and sold, right?" I muttered quietly.
"Love to buy or not to buy, not to buy and fuck off. An old and hoarse voice came, startling Du Zhiye.
I hurriedly reached out and grabbed Du Zhiye, and the voice was as if the vocal cords of the person who made the sound were broken, and it was extremely hoarse.
An unkempt old man with a disheveled hair stood up from behind the counter and threw a ginseng on the counter.
When I saw the old man's face clearly, my heart moved, and the old man's face was full of scars.
Without an inch of intact skin, the scars crisscrossed and wrinkled the face to make it even more ugly.
What's even more uncomfortable is that the old man is missing his left eye, his left eye is hollow, and his eyelids have grown in, and he doesn't even know how deep the hole is at a glance.
It's not scary, but it's definitely uncomfortable.
If it's a child, it's estimated that you can be scared to cry directly.
No wonder the old man didn't turn on the light.
I hurriedly said, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, the junior didn't mean to offend." β
"Where's the money?" asked the old man.
Du Zhiye couldn't see clearly, and this cautious voice did make her a little unnatural, and she handed the card to me.
"Boss, we swiped the card. I said quickly.
The old man waved his hand and said, "I don't use credit cards, I only accept cash." β
"Why didn't you remind me yesterday? Zhao Shuixian said a little speechlessly.
"You didn't ask. The old man put away the ginseng and said, "Go and get the money, it's better to hurry, there are people who have also ordered ginseng, I have this one left, first come, first served." β
"Okay, please keep it for me, this ginseng is a lifesaver. β
The old man said emotionlessly: "It has nothing to do with me whether I can save my life or not, I will see the money and goods." β
I hurriedly pulled Du Zhiye and walked outside, the environment inside was really not good.
Not only is it dark, but the smell inside is also very pungent, and Du Zhiye is already very uncomfortable inside.
As soon as he walked out of the pharmacy, Du Zhiye suddenly rushed to the trash can not far away and began to vomit violently.
......
