Chapter 139

"There are a lot of people here." Uncle Tang sat down, squinted at the people around him who were in high spirits, changing cups and cups, and whispered something to Xu Yi.

It was originally freezing cold, but now these people were sitting around in a square pavilion. There were heaters with curling incense placed around the pillars of the pavilion. There were also exquisite charcoal basins placed under the lower tables. People were sitting on soft cushions, not feeling cold.

Not only that, this group of drug dealers have also made great efforts. The female envoys who serve in the pavilion are all beautiful and graceful, and all they serve are the best sake.

Some unscrupulous businessmen, who had never seen such a grand scene, soon became drunk from drinking, their cheeks turned red, and they spoke incoherently.

It caused other people to look at him frequently and laugh at him.

"Anyone is messing with this. It can't be a pretense." A middle-aged man wearing a rich brocade green robe said with disgust on his face.

Hearing this, the person next to him said, "I heard that those drug dealers brought hundreds of stones of medicinal materials, and the warehouse in this villa can hardly hold them."

"So much?" Someone else exclaimed in surprise . .

"That's right." Someone said, "Otherwise, so many of us wouldn't be here."

These days, buying and selling medicinal materials is easy, but not easy.

Ordinary merchants would not stock so many perishable goods like medicinal materials. In this case, so many medicinal materials were enough for many people to share.

They thought that if these medicine dealers gathered here, they would hold a banquet and invite them as guests. They probably wanted to buy and sell these medicinal materials.

There were several wealthy businessmen sitting at the first two tables.

Those few people did not participate in these conversations. They looked at each other and made up their mind that they would not say anything more in front of everyone, so as not to leak the news.

After Xu Yi and Uncle Tang sat down, they noticed those people.

According to the information that Uncle Tang has obtained, those wealthy businessmen should have received the information a long time ago.

Compared with other people who are talking eloquently, these people may be the real buyers.

Or...

there are people from the drug dealer inside.

However, they have been here for two quarters of an hour, and the maid has brought two rounds of sake, but still no one in charge has come.

Xu Yi held the blue porcelain cup in his hand, took a sip, and saw a group of female envoys coming with freshly cut yellow plums.

These yellow plum blossoms bloom at the right time. They are delicate and beautiful, with deep yellow round petals, like beeswax, and a pleasant fragrance.

When everyone saw that the apothecary was willing to break off this excellent product for everyone to see, they were all amazed.

Xu Yi's table also got a bottle.

There is only one bottle available, but no one said that the drug dealer was stingy. There are many but not evil, this one is already fragrant and can fill a room.

Xu Yi raised his hand to sweep over it and pinched one in his hand. He pinched the calyx with his fingertips and put it to the tip of his nose to smell it.

Huangmei is indeed fragrant. It is also called yellow plum flower and can be used as medicine.

It can dissipate heat and detoxify, and can be widely used in children with fever.

Using Huangmei and adding honeysuckle, these two medicines alone can be used in a general antipyretic prescription for children.

However, such top-quality yellow plums are not often used for medicine. They are usually grown for viewing.

Xu Yi put the yellow plum on the low table and said to Uncle Tang, who was looking forward to it: "They are coming."

Uncle Tang stared at him and nodded silently to him.

Xu Yi relaxed a little instead, and said to the brother and sister sitting obediently next to him: "These candied dates and Chengsha dumplings are both good. Let's take some back and eat them at the inn."

A Jin's eyes brightened, and he immediately He took out a clean handkerchief, picked out a few good parcels, and put them in his arms.

A Xu was stunned and froze on the spot. After his sister had picked everything, he came back to his senses and shouted softly: "Lang Jun, can you take this thing away?"

Xu Yi said calmly: "This is a gift from them. Come give us food, if you don’t take it away, you will lose it.”

In this case, A Xu glanced at several other pastries and swallowed.

He wanted to take them all away.

However, after all, he is a young man with a thin skin. He thinks so in his heart but dare not take action.

Just follow my sister's example and pick two favorites to take home.

When Uncle Tang next to him saw this, he couldn't laugh or cry: "Why aren't you nervous? You are still focusing on the cakes."

Xu Yi said confidently: "Yanting doesn't have these cakes. It would be a pity not to take them back."

Uncle Tang was He was speechless at these words and had no choice but to look away and fall on the gravel path next to him.

After a while, they saw a group of drug dealers walking towards Sifang Pavilion with different steps.

Others in the Sifang Pavilion also saw them, and many people stood up to greet them.

When the drug dealers saw this, they all smiled and greeted everyone politely.

Not long after, Uncle Tang got up and went over.

When talking with one of the drug dealers, Yan Yan, no one cared much about other things. What they cared about was the batch of medicinal materials and whether they had their share.

These drug dealers have been keeping things secret for so long, but now they are blunt and say that there is something wrong with their medicinal materials.

When they heard that there was a problem, everyone looked at each other, with different expressions and different thoughts.

Xu Yi didn't say anything, but he concluded from what they said that the person in charge of this medicinal material transaction was a wealthy man named Qian, who introduced himself as a native of Arai. Most of the people in their group came from Arai.

There is a medicine shop over there in Xinjing. They brought so many medicinal materials on this trip and planned to go to Zizhou Prefecture to sell them to the medicine shop in the city. However, something went wrong halfway and one of the guards died.

The man named Qian looked sad. The death of the guard seemed to be a big blow to him. He couldn't hide his sadness and said: "He died for me. If he hadn't saved me, he wouldn't have fallen to the bottom of the mountain. "

Several other drug dealers immediately comforted him.

"Brother Qian, it's not your fault. If you hadn't saved his life, he would have starved to death."

"Yes, Brother Qian, everyone has his own destiny. Although he is a miserable man, he met Qian Brother, when Brother Qian comes back, if you give him a few more taels of compassionate allowance, the family will not have to worry about food and clothing."

Hearing this, Xu Yi raised his eyelids and took another look at the man.

It was a drug dealer surnamed Jin, and he had one gold for each, which could be regarded as the word "money".

Xu Yi moved a few steps towards Uncle Tang calmly and gestured to him.

Uncle Tang immediately understood and said with a slight smile: "You are all generous and righteous people, and I admire you very much. Now that things have happened, it is useless to express more. I don't know what your plans are next."

He finished speaking . , Yuan Guanren, whom he met by chance before, also stood up.

Yuan Guanren bowed his hands to the people around him and said bluntly: "I'm curious, what's wrong with the medicinal materials?"

Qian Pharmacist said: "To be honest with you, we were stranded in Lei Gong Mountain for several days. It snowed heavily at that time, and the car Some medicinal materials were soaked in the snow, but we had already dealt with them at that time, and those medicinal materials can still be used as medicine."

"This... can still be used?" someone questioned.

At this time, a man who claimed to be a doctor stood up and said with a smile: "As long as it does not damage the roots, the medicinal materials can naturally be used."

After he finished speaking, he suddenly looked at the crowd and asked one of them: "Yes, Brother Mu Zhang."

The person called "Brother Mu Zhang" was the doctor from Miaoshou Hall who came to Lei Gongshan this time. When he was suddenly named, a trace of anger and displeasure flashed in his eyes.

Feng Muzhang stood up and said in a cold voice: "Whether this can be used depends on the medicinal materials. It can't be determined in one sentence."

"What do you call this person?" Qian Pharmacist looked at Feng Muzhang, his expression unchanged.

After Feng Muzhang was brought out, apart from his initial irritation, he was quite polite to the drug dealer. He said, "My surname is Feng, and my name is Muzhang. I am a doctor at Miaoshou Pavilion in Yanting County."

Qian drug dealer said with a smile . : "It turns out to be Dr. Feng. I have admired the name Dr. Chen of Miaoshou Pavilion for a long time. I wonder if Dr. Chen is still practicing in Miaoshou Pavilion now?"

Feng Muzhang shook his head: "Dr. Chen is old, and his body and bones are not as strong as before, so he will not go to see doctors easily. "

Pharmacist Qian sighed and said that he had met Dr. Chen once when he was young. He was suffering from an acute illness and was cured by Dr. Chen.

After hearing that Qian's drug dealer had this relationship with Dr. Chen, Feng Muzhang went to see Qian's drug dealer again and his attitude became better.

After chatting for a while about Dr. Chen, he remembered the purpose of his trip and asked Qian Pharmacy if he could go to the warehouse to test the medicinal materials.

As a doctor at Miaoshou Pavilion, his words are more credible than others.

If he tests the medicinal materials and shows that there are no problems, those hesitant merchants will plan to buy them.

Xu Yi frowned, it turned out that this was the problem.

He looked at the doctor who first called out Feng Muzhang's identity, and suspected that there was a conspiracy involved. This man just wanted to use Feng Muzhang as a target and use him as a target.

Thinking of this, Xu Yi felt depressed. No, he had to find a chance to chat with Feng Muzhang.

When Qian Pharmacy saw Feng Muzhang taking the initiative to bring it up, he was naturally overjoyed and immediately arranged the matter.

Immediately, a plan flashed in Xu Yi's mind. He raised his glass, pretended to be drunk, squeezed through the crowd, and swayed in front of them.

Someone in front was knocked away, and he turned back dissatisfied and wanted to scold him.

Seeing a handsome young man, he looked slightly stunned and thought to himself, who is this person?

But before the man had time to think too much, Xu Yi had already come to the front and accidentally bumped into Feng Muzhang's arms.

The next moment, the sake in the cup spilled, and the clothes on Feng Muzhang's chest were stained darkly by the wine.

The young man who had bumped into his arms seemed to have woken up, and he hurriedly tried to wipe it with his sleeve. As a result, not only Feng Muzhang's clothes were wet, but also the young man's sleeve was wet.

Feng Muzhang's veins stretched out at the corners of his eyes. Just when he was about to push him away, his eyes fell on the young man's face, and his outstretched arm paused: "Xu..."

Xu Yi hurriedly interrupted him: "Ah, I didn't mean to, you, Don't be angry..."

As he said that, he went to pull his arm, but his feet slipped and he leaned towards him.

Feng Muzhang exclaimed, and before he had time to react, he was led backwards by Xu Yi and fell onto the soft cushion behind him.

Xu Yi found the opportunity and whispered in his ear: "Don't talk, listen to me first."

The man below him stopped breathing, stiffened and looked at the person facing him, with a suspicious look in his eyes , but seeing the young man’s expression so cold, it didn’t look like a joke.

Behind them, Feng Muzhang and Xu Yi were pulled up.

Feng Muzhang's apprentice ran over to help him, his face full of concern, and he glared at Xu Yi fiercely.

Xu Yi didn't seem to notice. He rubbed his wrist and made a hurt gesture. Uncle Tang didn't know why he was like this, but he still stepped forward and asked caringly: "What's wrong?"

"It's twisted. We'll take care of it later." Okay." Xu Yi did not answer directly.

A Xu and A Jin shouted worriedly: "Lang Jun, the injury is serious. We didn't bring any medicine when we came out this time."

"Is there any medicine in this villa?" Xu Yi gave them a comforting look and turned to look Xiang Qian Pharmacist, "As businessmen, you should always have medicines like this for bruises and injuries."

Qian Pharmacist twitched his lips. It could be seen that the young man in front of him was good-looking and arrogant. He wondered which one he could be from. Lang Jun went out to play and didn't want to offend easily.

Then he called the female envoy and took Xu Yi and Feng Muzhang to the backyard to change clothes.

The female envoy led Xu Yi and Feng Muzhang to the backyard and brought them brand new clothes to change.

Xu Yi sent her out and closed the door.

At this time, Feng Muzhang glanced at the clothes. When he saw Xu Yi turning back, he asked, "Doctor Xu, what do you mean?"

"Didn't you notice?" Xu Yi raised his eyebrows with a smile on his face. In his eyes, his aristocratic temperament suddenly changed, and he looked at Feng Muzhang with sharp sword-like eyes, "Who is that person? Why do you need to identify you in public? Why did the drug dealer named Qian take advantage of the situation and let you test the medicinal materials? Masterful skill Do you know what the museum's reputation is in Yanting County?"

After he finished speaking, he raised his chin and looked at Feng Muzhang's rapidly changing expression.

Then, he laughed softly: "If you think about it carefully, you will figure out something is wrong."

"How did you know there was a problem here?" Feng Muzhang stepped forward and asked with eyes wide open.

Xu Yi smiled modestly: "Of course I didn't find out, but how the guard died is highly doubtful. It would be better for Dr. Feng not to be the first person."

Feng Muzhang's eyelids jumped violently, and he raised his hand to cover it. Seeing his twitching eyelids, Xu Yi was the first to stir up his emotions. Now his thoughts were confused and he couldn't make up his mind for a moment.

If it is true, as Xu Yi said, that the other party wants to take advantage of Miaoshou Guan's reputation, then his move will harm Miaoshou Guan.

But what if Xu Yi is alarmist?

He had often heard Wu Guanshan say how brilliant Xu Yi's medical skills were, and how clever and interesting his methods were, but he rarely had the chance to meet him.

If Xu Yi hadn't bumped into him on purpose just now, they would have gone to the warehouse where the medicinal materials were stored.

He was panicking for no reason. He covered his chest and looked at Xu Yi's wrist. He changed the subject and asked, "Did you hurt your hand just now?"

Xu Yi said, "No, I was just pretending."

Feng Muzhang's breathing was slightly stagnant.

Then, he took a deep breath and asked Xu Yi: "If it is what you said, I will not come forward in this matter, but I have already agreed to the money merchant. If we go back, how will we explain it if he mentions it again?"

"Just change it to someone else. Yes." Xu Yi narrowed his eyes meaningfully.

Feng Muzhang opened his mouth: "Who is it?"

Xu Yi twitched the corner of his mouth and said leisurely: "Whoever named you out will take your place."

Feng Muzhang was a little surprised. He thought Xu Yi bumped into him intentionally and just didn't want him. After getting involved, people have already thought of countermeasures.

Is this person really obsessed with medicine as Wu Guanshan said?

However, I think smart people are also good at other things. Feng Muzhang didn't think much about anything else. He lowered his voice and said, "I'm not familiar with that person. I only know that he has some issues with Senior Brother Guan Shan."

After hearing this answer, Xu Yi glanced at Feng Muzhang thoughtfully, wondering why this was related to Wu Guanshan.

But listening to the man's tone, it was obvious that he was here for the Miaoshou Pavilion. No matter what the reason was, it was not an unprovoked target. This must be one of the clues.

I just don't know if this clue is useful yet.

While the two were talking secretly, Uncle Tang and the others waited in the Sifang Pavilion for a while. The drug dealer Qian and others excused themselves and left beforehand. The remaining people were still in the Sifang Pavilion, continuing to drink and talk.

Uncle Tang, A Xu and the others looked in the direction Xu Yi left, worried in their hearts.

Everything happened so fast just now that Uncle Tang didn't even come back to his senses. Now he sat down on the soft cushions, drank the sake in the cup, and thought about it quietly, and figured out what was wrong.

Xu Yi knew the doctor at Miaoshou Pavilion, but he was obstructive because he was afraid that he had other deep intentions.

Maybe it had something to do with the medicinal materials. The guard said that the medicinal materials were shoddy, but Xu Yi and he both felt that it might be more than that.

other side.

Drug dealer Qian walked in front with an ugly expression. Not long after, a boy came running up from behind and said that Doctor Wang was here.

Doctor Wang was the doctor who called out Feng Muzhang.

He was also irritable. Everything was going smoothly, but then he disrupted all their plans.

Qian Pharmacist said coldly: "What should we do now?"

Doctor Wang clenched his fists, a trace of hatred flashed in his eyes, and said with a deep look: "Feng Muzhang is stupid, he will catch up after a moment, they will change later. "I hope so. "

Qian Pharmacist looked at him calmly. "It depends on you whether you can kill two birds with one stone this time."

Dr. Wang pursed his lips and said, "I understand ." .”

…

after a stick of incense.

Xu Yi and Feng Muzhang returned to Sifang Pavilion under the guidance of the female envoy.

When the people who had been waiting in the pavilion for a long time saw them coming back, they planned to rush to the warehouse where the medicinal materials were stored.

Xu Yi returned to Uncle Tang, touched the heads of the two little guys, and spoke to Uncle Tang in a low voice.

Uncle Tang looked at Feng Muzhang worriedly and replied, "We don't need to worry about it?"

"Yes." Xu Yi nodded.

He had already said what he needed to say. If Feng Muzhang wasn't stupid, he would have figured out how to draw the other party into trouble. If you can't even do this, there's not much anyone else can do to help.

After the two of them added up, they lined up at the back of the team.

Pharmacist Qian enthusiastically pulled Feng Muzhang's wide sleeves and talked and laughed freely, as if Feng Muzhang was a friend he had not seen for many years.

Feng Muzhang originally had a good impression of this wealthy drug dealer, but now that Xu Yi reminded him, looking at his face that opened and closed, he felt more disgusted in his heart.

This man didn't know what he was planning. Feng Muzhang didn't dare to reveal too much of his emotions, so he could only smile and endure it.

When everyone arrived at the villa warehouse, the guard guarding outside opened the door.

Only then did everyone see how many medicinal materials were placed inside.

It is not an exaggeration to say that it is hundreds of stones. Carloads of medicinal materials are piled up into mountains, and you can’t see clearly the depth inside when you look up.

At this time, someone said: "I heard that this villa was built by the descendants of Leizu. The current owner of the villa is a dragon who often travels around. The person who is in charge of the villa now is the insider of the owner's mansion."

"Then you . Do you know who the owner of the village is?"

"It is said that his ancestral home is Changzhou, but I don't know whether it is true or not."

"..."

The few people changed the subject and turned their attention. On medicinal materials.

Feng Muzhang coughed lightly and said to Doctor Wang, "I'm here to check in for Senior Brother Guan Shan. Doctor Wang, you also know that Senior Brother Guan Shan is busy and can't leave the medical center."

"Yes, Brother Guan Shan is a hard worker. , we can’t leave Yanting County,” Doctor Wang replied with a smile on his face.

Feng Muzhang looked ashamed and said, "When I was changing my clothes just now, I thought that since I started studying medicine, my qualifications are mediocre and not as good as Dr. Wang's medical skills. After thinking about it, I feel that I can't be responsible for testing medicines."

Dr. Wang's heart pounded and he frowned unconsciously. "Brother Muzhang is being humble. With his medical skills, he has already taken charge of his own business. How can I stump you just for testing medicines?"

He was afraid that something might happen, so after saying this, he immediately glanced at Qian Pharmacy.

Drug dealer Qian looked at the two of them with a half-smile but did not say anything to save the situation.

At this point, Doctor Wang didn't understand why the drug dealer was a profit-seeker. As long as he could achieve his goal, it didn't matter who he sacrificed.

Killing two birds with one stone, he just asked for it.

Doctor Wang's palms hidden under his sleeves clenched tightly, and he immediately gritted his teeth. Seeing Feng Muzhang, he thought of Wu Guanshan again.

He and Wu Guanshan were both apprentices of Dr. Chen. They ate and lived together, and both studied medicine and medicine under Dr. Chen's guidance.

Just when they had lived together for five years and had become brothers who talked about everything, Dr. Chen said that he was not suitable for studying medicine and expelled him from the school.

From then on, he hated Dr. Chen and Wu Guanshan.

Especially since Wu Guanshan deliberately showed off in front of him afterwards, and now he has inherited the Miaoshou Pavilion.

Wu Guanshan gained everything he lost...

A stern expression flashed across Doctor Wang's face, yes, in that case, don't blame him for destroying the Miaoshou Pavilion.

"Brother Mu Zhang, we are equal, why don't we come together." Doctor Wang squeezed out a smile and raised his hands to everyone, "If I were the only one, others would inevitably question me, so why don't we come together, so that everyone can feel at ease?" ."

As soon as he finished speaking, several businessmen around him echoed.

Xu Yi suddenly raised his head, took a deep look at Doctor Wang, and then stood out from the crowd: "Hey, Doctor Wang, please be a little slower!"

He smiled and shook his head, pretending to be looked down upon and annoyed, and said : "How can Doctor Wang look down on others? Not only Brother Mu Zhang is a doctor here, but I am also a doctor."

Doctor Wang looked at the young man who suddenly jumped out, became angry and sneered: "Where are you? "

I am Xu Yi, a famous traveling doctor. Have you heard of me in Yanting County?" Xu Yi smiled and looked at Doctor Wang who almost jumped.

Doctor Wang has naturally heard of Xu Yi's reputation. This man is now famous in Yanting County. It's hard not to know.

But he didn't expect that this person was really as young as the rumors.

Just now, he didn't even recognize who this person was.

At this moment, Yuan Guanren stood up, smiled and talked about Xu Yi's deeds to everyone present. After talking, he clapped his hands and shouted: "You don't know, I learned from Brother Lin a while ago that his son's epilepsy All diseases were cured by Dr. Xu!"

"Even epilepsy can be cured, isn't that a miracle doctor?" Someone in the crowd behind him sighed loudly.

Xu Yi paused and frowned imperceptibly.

Why is this voice so familiar?

He glanced back and saw Uncle Tang winking at him: "..." It's over!

Xu Yi coughed twice, and when he saw Feng Muzhang's uncomfortable look, he immediately stopped the people's discussion: "Yuan Guanren, I don't dare to accept your kind words."

As he said that, he turned his eyes to the people watching the theater next to him. He said, "But I am also interested in the drug test. I wonder if Mr. Qian can allow me to show it with a shy face?"

Qian, the drug dealer, saw that there were still people taking the initiative to jump into the trap, so he naturally accepted the offer happily.

It doesn't matter anymore whether Feng Muzhang from Miaoshou Hall agrees or not.
