Record 331: Little Mouse

The two walked down the secret passage, and the sound of their footsteps echoed muffledly on the walls on the left and right of the secret passage, and bounced back to their ears faintly, making people feel that it was getting deeper and more secretive.

Zhao Chonghuan sniffed her nose and felt a faint medicinal fragrance entering her nose. She looked past the handsome back of the man in front of her, frowning and trying to look down.

There was a mass of confusion below, with thick and dark shadows.

The secret passage is not long. It is estimated to be about the height of a one-story pavilion. At the bottom is a secret room ten feet square.

Xie Changhuai raised the candle high to illuminate Zhao Chonghuan.

She looked around quickly and found that there were several huge wooden cabinets against the wall in the secret room, which were as high as the roof of the secret room.

There are a number of small drawers densely packed on the cabinet, similar to the Baizi cabinets used in medicine halls to prepare medicine.

Zhao Chonghuan curiously opened a drawer and a faint smell of medicinal herbs entered her nose. She took out a pill and sniffed it. She was about to put it in her mouth to taste it when her hand suddenly went numb and the medicinal ingredient fell down.

On the ground.

"Don't put anything in your mouth and try it!" Xie Changhuai stood three steps away, his expression a bit serious under the dim light.

Zhao Chonghuan was well versed in pharmacology, so naturally he didn't think there was poison in it, but his concern still taught her to be soft-hearted.

She turned back and smiled at him, then raised her foot to slice the medicinal herbs that fell on the floor and kicked them under the cabinet, then opened another drawer and continued to look.

Seeing her move like this, the corners of Xie Changhuai's lips curved almost invisible.

Zhao Chonghuan opened the drawers one by one and studied them carefully, and found that many medicinal materials were rare and could not be purchased in ordinary medicine halls.

"This is a big medicine hall full of precious medicinal materials! No wonder it is so hidden!" Zhao Chonghuan marveled as he looked at it.

When she opened another drawer, she exclaimed, "There is even purple star grass!"

Her purple star grass was bought for her by her second senior brother at a high price, so she was never willing to use it indiscriminately.

She didn't expect to find such a large amount of Purple Star Grass in a secret room in an unknown courtyard today. It was like God dropped a big pie on her head.

She couldn't help but subconsciously take out her treasure bag-like purse from her sleeve, and unceremoniously put a small handful in each rare medicinal material drawer and threw it in. Soon her little purse became bulging.

When she was wondering if her purse was not enough, a large brocade handkerchief suddenly appeared in her hand——

She looked back and saw the man raised his eyebrows: "Pretend for you!"

Zhao Chonghuan couldn't help but laugh out loud when he saw his behavior being so natural.

"I'm stealing, and you're just watching?" she teased in a low voice.

"Then I'll watch the wind for you!" His handsome face still had a serious expression.

"No need, I'll be quick!"

She has no shame at all for being a thief.

I saw that she used a little Qinggong and turned through all the drawers like the wind. From time to time, her surprised voice could be heard in the wind.

“This is the medicine I’ve been looking for!”

"This Central Plains doesn't exist at all!"

"Wow, isn't this unique to Tianshan Mountain?"

“This company is simply a drug tycoon!”

Xie Changhuai looked at his girl like a little mouse falling into a rice vat, and he was so excited that he put those precious medicinal materials into the handkerchief.

His expression hidden in the shadows was a bit complicated, but his eyes couldn't help but reveal a hint of pampering and helplessness.

Soon, Zhao Chonghuan packed up his handkerchief and purse with satisfaction.

She walked further into the corner and found a large wooden barrel on the inside of the cupboard against the wall. She touched it and found it was a pile of dry clams. Going further down, she suddenly came across a soft bucket.

object--

She pulled the soft object out with a slight tug. Under the dim light and shadow, it was a piece of white cloth.

Zhao Chonghuan was immediately overjoyed and quickly pulled out the piece of cloth, muttering: "I finally found it!"

"What is this?" Xie Changhuai asked as he approached.

"Evidence!" she said with a smile.
