Chapter 368 Encountering a Medicine Thief



Because Zhao Nan needs to boil medicine again to make up for the losses in his body.

Zhao Wei searched everywhere for the necessary Chinese medicinal materials late at night.

He only found three herbs from the barefoot doctor in the village, and there were five or six more that he needed to get as quickly as possible.

But all the Chinese medicine clinics in the town were closed, and it was so late, he couldn't find anyone to get medicine, so he had to give up.

As for going to the county hospital, forget it. The master said that there is no time to wait. From getting in the car to getting to the hospital, Zhao Nan might die on the way.

Now, he let him suck a piece of ginseng, holding on to his last breath so that Zhao Wei could get the medicine in the shortest time possible.

So he drove his car without stopping and came to the next village.

Although the people in Haozi Village are quite messy, they do have a doctor in their village.

At this time, he rushed into the village like the wind without alarming anyone.

After all, the big guys nowadays no longer steal or cheat. They have all become well-behaved and when it gets dark, they just turn off the engine and go to sleep.

There's no way, their village is seriously haunted now.

It is said that if you don't do anything wrong in your life, you won't be afraid of ghosts knocking on your door in the middle of the night.

But now, these people are scared to death. Some of the more timid families were so frightened that they could not return home and hurriedly ran to their relatives' homes for shelter.

These people have finally experienced what it means to suffer the consequences of their own actions.

Zhao Wei didn't have time to lament about how he had played a trick on a villager. He was now mainly busy finding the doctor's home.

Fortunately, he had been to this place many times, so he was familiar with the place and did it quickly.

He didn't have time to play any tricks with the other party, so he could just climb over the wall of his yard.

The yard was quiet at this time.

The doctor in this place was probably fast asleep. Even if you stood outside the window, you could hear him snoring like a pig.

Without hesitation, he kicked the door open and pulled the doctor up.

The doctor was a little confused when he woke up. When he saw Zhao Wei, a guy with his head covered, the first thing he thought of was to kneel down and beg for mercy.

"Please spare my life, my good man. Take whatever you want as soon as possible, as long as it doesn't harm my life."

Zhao Wei picked it up and said viciously, "Hurry up and get the Atractylodes macrocephala, Angelica sinensis, and Rehmannia glutinosa out to me. Hurry up."

The doctor did not dare to delay and hurriedly took out a few bags, then opened the bags to reveal the medicinal materials.

"Brother, I'll give you all the stockpiled goods here. Please let me live. I beg you..."

He was scared to death, and the medicine was cheap, so he could just go up the mountain to collect it.

Life is important now!

Zhao Wei happily stepped forward to take a look. These medicines were all compatible with each other. He still knew how to identify some of them, so they were not all useless.

The reason for this is simply because the medicinal herbs found in the mountains can be exchanged for money.

Therefore, he will be able to generate more income.

Just then, there was a rustling sound outside the house, as if someone was pulling at the courtyard wall.

Zhao Wei didn't want to be seen, so he quickly kicked out the oil lamp and put his knife against the doctor's throat: "Don't make a sound!"

The moonlight filtered through the window lattice, casting mottled shadows of the trees on the ground. A dark figure was seen climbing over the wall, holding a half-man-high wooden stick in his hand, and walking straight towards the pharmacy.

"Damn it, you're here to steal medicine again?" The doctor gnashed his teeth in anger, "Ever since our village was haunted, there has been no peace in the village..."

Haunted?

Haha... this is almost like fooling ghosts.

The people in this place are as cunning as foxes.

Are these people going to become possessed by demons just for these few dead souls?

This person came to steal the medicine. Who is he stealing it for?

Zhao Wei pushed the doctor onto the kang and hid behind the door against the wall.

A dark shadow pushed the door open and walked in, with a strong smell of alcohol and blood on his body, and the wooden stick in his hand was actually half broken!

"Old man, hand over the medicine for the knife wound!"

The black shadow growled and kicked over the medicine cabinet, scattering bupleurum and codonopsis all over the floor.

Zhao Wei couldn't see the man's appearance clearly, but he was never afraid of such desperadoes.

The black shadow rummaged through the medicine cabinet more and more quickly. The clay jars were smashed to pieces, and the aroma of medicine mixed with the smell of blood filled the small room.

The doctor huddled in the corner of the kang, and the sound of his teeth chattering was particularly clear in the silence.

Zhao Wei gripped the knife handle tightly and was about to pounce, but he heard the shadow suddenly curse: "Damn it, I shouldn't have listened to that one-eyed dragon's nonsense! There's nothing here."

The three words "One-Eyed Dragon" are a little unfamiliar, but no matter what, since this person dares to be a thief, he must bear the consequences.

While the other party was cursing, Zhao Wei had already taken the initiative.

Taking advantage of the opportunity when the shadow was rummaging through the medicine cabinet, Zhao Wei suddenly swung out the rope and wrapped it around the other person's ankle.

The black shadow staggered forward and fell, with the half-broken stick falling heavily to the ground.

Before he could stand up, Zhao Wei had already stepped forward, pressed his knee hard against his back, and pressed the blade against his neck: "Tell me! What did the One-Eyed Dragon ask you to do?"

"Why did you come here to steal medicine?"

"I advise you to tell the truth. Otherwise, you will suffer the consequences."

The shadow struggled violently, and the smell of alcohol and blood hit him: "Who do you care who I am? Kill me if you can!"

Before he finished speaking, he suddenly exerted force and threw out a poisoned dart from his sleeve.

Zhao Wei dodged sideways, and the dart brushed past his ear and pierced into the wooden beam, splashing a string of sparks.

"Looking for death!" Zhao Wei shouted angrily and punched the black shadow on the temple with his backhand.

The man groaned and collapsed. The black scarf on his head slipped off, revealing a hideous scar extending from his left eye to the corner of his mouth - it was obvious that he was a desperado.

It has the characteristics of Mouse Village.

The doctor got up from the corner of the kang, trembling all over: "This man must have invited that wizard. My God, he is so bold."

The more Zhao Wei listened, the more confused he became. He shouted in dissatisfaction, "What one-eyed dragon, what wizard? Explain it to me clearly."

"Alas..." The doctor sighed, "These days, our village has been punished by the gods. Everyone can't hold it in any longer, so we thought of asking a master to perform a ritual."

"This wizard is the one-eyed fairy. We traveled thousands of miles and spent a lot of money to invite him back. We will take action tomorrow night. As for why he stole the medicine, I am not sure."

Zhao Wei couldn't help but blurt out two words after hearing this: "Stupid!"

Then he asked, "How much money did you spend to prepare for this ritual?"

"Uh... about 50 yuan, and every family in the village contributed 50 cents."

"It seems that you have too much money and you are all sick."

These people think that they can break the situation where ghosts and monsters are victorious by relying on a mere wizard, but he can just keep dreaming!
