"Boss, can you tell me who is a better herbal picker nearby?" Yan Ruocheng asked straight to the point.
When the boss heard this, he pretended to be confused and said: "Girl, the herb pickers here come back from time to time. It's impossible to find them. Why don't you leave a message and when I see them, I'll ask them to help you find what you want."
Medicinal materials.”
Drug stores have certain rules and generally do not disclose the contact information of the person who collects the medicine, so as not to have different prices in different stores and disturb the balance of drug prices.
Yan Ruocheng also knew that he would say this, so he deliberately pretended to frown and said: "Boss, please tell me a little bit. I have asked many pharmacies, but they just won't tell me. I think Boss
You are a discerning businessman. The medicinal materials in your store are so special and can be found at any time. The herb picker in your store must be very powerful. Please help me. I need to ask him about a certain medicinal herb.
Otherwise, my young master will not let me go, he is very cruel." As he said that, he pointed to Huang Chen, who was standing not far away from the store, surrounded by guards, with a straight face and not to be approached by strangers.
Ling .
"Girl, what kind of medicinal herbs do you want to ask about?" Seeing that she was a knowledgeable person, the boss reluctantly helped her.
"It's this kind of herb, boss, have you ever heard of it?" Yan Ruozhen wrote out the name in Chinese characters and showed it to him.
The boss shook his head and said: "I haven't heard of it. There is no such herb at all. There is Lark Grass. Did you write the wrong name?"
"That's right, my young master thought it was this name. I also told him that it might be wrong, but he didn't believe it. I had to ask a more capable herb collector to see if he knew the relevant herbs.
So that my young master can give up his mind and stop looking for it." Yan Ruocheng said helplessly.
"Well, let me tell you that there is a slightly experienced herb collector living there, but I don't guarantee that he is at home. He often goes out to collect herbs for a year and a half and doesn't come back. Whether you run into him or not depends on your luck.
." Seeing that she was speaking so helplessly, the boss probably wasn't in business, so he let down his guard and told her.
"Okay, thank you boss, but I don't know the road. Can you draw a map for me to find?" Yan Ruocheng said.
"Okay." The boss kindly drew her with a brush and said unintentionally while drawing: "Girls, you foreigners, it's best not to get close to the village chief's house, it will be safer."
"The village chief's house? Why? Is there anything scary there?" Yan Ruozhen asked puzzledly. She remembered that Huang Fengmo told her yesterday that she was going to help the village chief's son treat a strange disease. She
I almost forgot about it.
The boss whispered suspiciously: "There is something that eats people in the house. The people who occasionally disappear in the village are probably eaten by that thing."
"Scared? It's so scary. Why didn't you report it to the official? Don't you need to check the life of the person?" Yan Ruozhen said dubiously.
"The village chief has a good relationship with the local officials. This matter has been kept secret. I just want to tell outsiders like you to be careful." The boss reminded her out of good intentions.
"Okay, thank you, boss. I want ten more ginseng sticks, and I'll pay for them together with the medicinal ingredients just now." Seeing that the boss was such a nice person, Yan Ruozhen naturally patronized him more.
After waiting for a long time, Huang Chenling became impatient and finally saw her walking back carrying a lot of packages of medicinal materials.
"You go ask people, or buy medicinal materials, and you buy so much!" As soon as she came over, she lectured directly.
"I asked. I'll follow the map and find the herb collector later. I bought these herbs for future use. The more the better, so you're prepared." Yan Ruozhen handed the herbs to the guard.
"My guards are not here to help you carry medicinal materials." Huang Chenling was still calculating.
"Let's go quickly. It's important to find someone, don't worry about the details." Yan Ruozhen ignored his verbosity, set off with the guards, and walked ahead alone.
Just turn a few corners as shown on the map, then follow the stone road and go up the slope, and you'll arrive.
A line of people walked like this. When walking on the slope, Yan Ruocheng slowly walked from the front to the back. She was thinking as she walked. What the boss said just now made her a little concerned. She suspected that the village chief's strange illness was related to
It has something to do with cannibalism.
Huang Chenling saw that she was walking so slowly, so she also slowed down, walked to her side, and asked, "What are you thinking about?"
He noticed that when she was thinking about a problem, she would walk slowly and look up at the sky.
"Huh? Second Prince, how do you know that I am thinking?" Yan Ruozhen asked curiously. Didn't he often ignore her existence?
"I can tell just by looking at your stupidity. Is it necessary to ask?" Huang Chenling answered casually.
Under the mask, she narrowed her eyes and raised her eyebrows. His answer aroused her desire to tease him. She said frivolously: "The villain is wearing a mask. Second Prince, you have also seen the villain's
How stupid are you so powerful?"
How could Huang Chenling allow her to make fun of him? He punched her in the head and said with a straight face: "Stop joking and tell me. Did you just ask for relevant clues and didn't tell me?"
"No, you're overthinking it. I heard my boss say something strange just now." Yan Ruocheng deliberately came closer to him and whispered.
"What's weird?" Huang Chenling asked curiously.
"There is something that eats people. There is something that only eats people in the village chief's house. It is suspected that all the missing people in the village were eaten by it. Because the village chief and the officials colluded with each other, this matter was reduced to a minor matter." Yan Ruo
Li said.
"It's okay. I'll go to the village chief later and find out what's going on." Huang Chenling said righteously.
"Okay." She said with a bright smile.
"Why are you laughing?" he asked expressionlessly.
She turned her head away and said, "You're not smiling." For her, it was a happy and exciting thing to be able to walk with him, go to one place and then another, even if he criticized and scolded her.
She was willing to complain again, but she would definitely not let him know, otherwise he would 100% think she was a bitch.
Huang Chenling knew her little thoughts, but she didn't expose them.
