Chapter 19 Lin's Medicinal Material Shop in Qi County

Shen Ge lost all sleep, and quietly sank into the water again, holding his breath and staring at the pale hand.

The other hand also stretched out from the water and threw something into the cabin. After a moment, three black figures broke out of the water, jumped into the boat with knives, and the hull shook violently. Soon after, the three black figures who jumped on were like people. It was thrown into the river like rags, and the picked up water rushed to the reeds and made ripples.

The three living people were all gone in just a short time. Shen Ge looked at the dark boat in the river again, and his heart became heavier and heavier.

"Brothers on the boat in front, why is there such a big noise? Are you okay?" Stopped under the old willow tree in the distance, the night escort on the large merchant ship heard the noise here and shouted at the top of his voice.

"It's okay." No one on the boat stepped forward, only shouted back in the cabin, the voice was extremely calm.

"It's okay, don't make such a big noise in the middle of the night, it sounds disturbing!" the escort on the big ship replied, and the river surface returned to calm.

While they were talking, Shen Ge withdrew and returned to the ship, where he was pulled aboard by Uncle Ma Sanshu. Back in the room, Shen Ge quickly changed into dry clothes and drank a large bowl of hot ginger soup. Then he held the soup bowl and said, "The three people were killed and thrown into the river as soon as they got on the boat. They were not afraid of disturbing anyone. Third uncle, An Ziyuan is by no means an ordinary person."

Uncle Ma also agreed and asked doubtfully, "Such a person is neither short of money nor power. What is he trying to do by arresting Mr. Ge? Did Geer guess wrong? If you continue to follow me, are you not afraid of risking your life?"

Shen Ge shook his head resolutely, "The third son's nose is sharper than a dog's, and my feeling has never been wrong. My husband's disappearance must be related to him. Only a capable person like An Ziyuan can take my husband away without a trace." .Besides, I have nothing better to do than follow him and find clues about Mr. He. He wants to kill me, but he doesn’t have the ability!"

Uncle Ma San was grateful to Mr. Dongzhu, otherwise he would not have helped him this time, and took Lin Ruyu on board the ship. He patted Shen Ge on the shoulder and sighed, "What a good boy, he will grow up to be a well-known hero. "

Shen Ge was unhappy, "I am a man."

"The hair hasn't even grown yet, what a bastard!" Uncle Ma grabbed the cloth, roughly rubbed Shen Ge's wet hair, and asked in a low voice, "Ge, why do you think Fan Genyuan wanted to arrest him?" That girl?"

"Why?"

Uncle Ma continued, "Your Uncle Ma often travels to the waterway in Xuanzhou. He said that there is a large family named Lin in the east of Xuanzhou City. They are mainly engaged in silk and medicinal materials business, and their family assets are extremely rich. The second sister looks like she is not an ordinary family. The girl who came out may be the daughter of that family."

Shen Ge lowered his eyes and said, "We are inseparable."

Looking at Shen Ge's expression, Uncle Ma San couldn't say anything in his heart, "It's getting late, go get some sleep."

As soon as it dawned the next day, the fleet hoisted the ropes and sailed, and continued moving forward.

Lin Ruyu, who had another nightmare from her previous life, got up and sat on the bed to sort out her messed up mind.

Shen Ge, who had slept for more than an hour, brought breakfast to Lin Ruyu, told what happened last night, and then said, "Now I can't tell whether An Ziyuan was injured or pretending to be injured. But no matter where Zhong, he doesn’t have time to trouble you right now, let’s take a boat to Qi County and go straight to Qi County first.”

Lin Ruyu ate the wild vegetables and meat buns in small bites, nodded, and asked, "If they dare to kill people without restraint, they must have someone to rely on. Stop staring at the boat, lest something happen. Can we arrive in Qi County by noon today?"

"Look at the wind direction, we will definitely arrive before dark," Shen Ge replied.

Lin Ruyu whispered, "I suddenly remembered last night that my family has a store in Qi County. After landing, I planned to go there."

Shen Ge went through the big businesses in Qixian County in his mind, and then asked, "Is it Linji Medicinal Materials Store or Linji Silk and Satin Store?"

"They are all." Lin Ruyu's eyes were bright, "When I arrived in Qi County, Brother Shen helped me inquire about the surrounding villages to see if there were any where I could see the three mountain peaks arranged in a mountain shape. My mother said in her dream that she and A Heng woke up after being robbed and was kept in a hut where he could see such a mountain for a long time. The surrounding area was very quiet, and he could only hear the crowing of chickens and dogs in the distance, as well as the howling of wolves in the mountains. I guess It’s in a mountainside village.”

It was smooth sailing today. As soon as the sun turned to the west, the fleet stopped at the dock outside Qixian County. Fan Genyuan directed people to carry grain, and merchant ships also docked to unload cargo and drop off passengers.

Lin Ruyu's big ship will dock here overnight and set off tomorrow morning for Xuanzhou. The time left for them to find out the news is very tight.

Shen Ge put on broken straw sandals and patched clothes, rolled up half of his trouser legs to pretend to be a porter, and helped people carry goods into the city; Shen Ge put on beggar clothes, held up a broken bowl and a broken wooden stick, and chased the carriage to beg. Everything went well. Entering the city; Lin Ruyu and Dafu landed together and followed the road into the city gate.

In the boat, An Fengchun whispered, "Sir, that little girl has entered the city."

An Ziyuan's eyes showed a hunting light, "Find a place with elegant scenery and arrange a hero to save the beauty."

An Fengchun paused, "Master's injury?"

"It doesn't matter."

After entering the city, the four of them went their separate ways. Lin Ruyu took Dafu and followed the direction Shen Ge told her and rushed to the busiest main street in Qi County to look for the plaque of Lin's Medicinal Materials Store.

Not long after, Lin Ruyu stood in an alley not far from the door of a store with a couplet hanging on both sides of the door: "I hope there will be no suffering in the world, I would rather put medicine on the shelf" and a plaque "Lin Ji Herbal Medicine Shop", secretly observe.

This is her Lin family's shop, and the person she wants may be inside.

Lin Ruyu stuffed a large piece of silver into her hand, pointed to the door of the medicine store, and warned, "Brother, go in and buy a bottle of Zhixiang dew. Don't say anything when people in the store ask you. After buying the medicine, come back to me in this alley." .”

Dafu said "oh", grabbed the money and went to Linji Herbal Medicine Store. It took about half a stick of incense before he walked out.

Lin Ruyu, who was hiding in the dark, saw the little boy following Dafu sneakily and smiled coldly. The person she was looking for was indeed here.

After Dafu entered the alley, Lin Ruyu pulled him quickly into a broken wooden door, closed the door tightly, and then quickly climbed up on the three-legged broken bench placed against the wall. When he looked outside, he happened to see the guy following Dafu turning around. Ran.

Lin Dafu, who was standing under the broken stool, raised his hand and handed the delicate small medicine bottle and the remaining broken silver to Lin Ruyu. Lin Ruyu took the medicine bottle, opened it and smelled the familiar smell deep in her memory, and her eyes turned red.

This is the scent of the mosquito repellent and anti-itch scented lotion specially prepared for her by her father.

Lin Ruyu gave Dafu a few words and asked him to wait behind the door with a wooden stick.

Soon, a short, fat middle-aged man wearing a dark blue steward's uniform and a short beard walked into the alley. When she saw this man, Lin Ruyu almost broke the medicine bottle in her hands!

The man stood in front of the broken door, his facial expression changed several times, and then he pretended to be anxious, and asked tremblingly, "Is the big girl in there? Only small rooms are prosperous."

Hearing this voice, Lin Dafu's eyes immediately widened, "Second Butler?!"

"Dafu, it's really you. I can't believe what the guy said just now..." Outside the door, Fang Caiwang, the second housekeeper of the Lin Mansion who was still a little nervous, heard Dafu's voice, and his little eyes rolled around, but the voice was revealing

Gengyan said, "The little man came late, which made the big girl suffer..."

After Lin Ruyu confirmed that no one was following, she jumped off the broken stool and opened the courtyard door.

Seeing Lin Ruyu's face, Fang Caiwang, who was preparing to shed a few tears, was stunned, "Big, big girl's face..."

Lin Ruyu pouted, covered her face and walked in. Fang Caiwang quickly followed into the yard.

"Brother, close the door." Lin Ruyu looked back and saw Dafu still stunned, and immediately shouted.
