"Change?" Qin Yifan pretended to be startled: "Old Zhang, what kind of thing is weird?"
"Yeah!" Brother Zhang pondered for a while: "For example, are the wild beasts in the mountains frightened, and are there any sudden illnesses among the people living here?"
Looking at senior brother Lao Zhang's eager eyes, you can tell how he is feeling now. Qin Yifan pretended to think for a while before shaking his head: "There is nothing abnormal about the people here. It's just that a few martial arts practitioners from other places got seriously ill after fighting here.
One scene, nothing else."
It was obvious that the eyes of the two brothers were suddenly enlightened, and then the senior brother Zhang turned back to Qin Yifan with a smile: "Is the shopkeeper wondering why I asked this?"
Qin Yifan nodded, smiling secretly in his heart.
"To be honest with the shopkeeper, my brother is in the medicinal material business, so he is very concerned about these things. I need the shopkeeper to take more care of me in my future life here!" He concealed the purpose of asking these questions in a calm voice. If Qin Yifan is really a
The innkeeper might believe it.
The villagers were very happy to know the apparent purpose of the two people. Who doesn't like to have some extra money besides household expenses? They were also very interested in their requests. Senior brother Lao Zhang said he would teach everyone how to identify them.
Medicinal materials, after Qin Yifan finished talking to them, several mountain people waiting outside came in and talked to Lao Zhang about identifying medicinal materials.
Lao Zhang must have been injured last night, otherwise he wouldn't look like this today, but what he said cannot be forgotten. He braved the injury and explained some common sense about herbal medicine to everyone. After all, he is a disciple of the Alchemy Sect who specializes in medicine, which is indeed extraordinary.
, even Qin Yifan, who was listening on the sidelines, learned a lot about the identification of herbal medicines.
The mountain people left happily. Lin Qiulu had already reached her fixed training time and found an excuse to go out. Only Qin Yifan and two strangers were left in the inn. The two brothers looked at each other and smiles appeared on their faces again.
"Shopkeeper, who is the villager here? Let my brother pay a visit. When he comes to the land here, he should take care of it." This is obviously the rule of Jianghu people. If you want to live in a place for a long time, you need to
Worship the mountain.
"I don't dare. It's a small place and there is no village leader." Qin Yifan seemed not to see the smiles between them, and answered in an old-fashioned way: "As the master of this place, Xia Tian doesn't dare to say anything about big things, but he can still make some decisions about small things."
.As for worshiping the mountain, there is no need."
When Qin Yifan revealed that he was the owner of this place, his junior brother Xiao Li took the opportunity to pour tea and quietly came behind Qin Yifan. Then, in conjunction with his senior brother Lao Zhang's warm words, he very attentively delivered a cup of tea.
Qin Yifan's hand: "Shopkeeper, drink tea."
Qin Yifan took the tea and held it in his hand, but did not drink it. Instead, he looked at his senior brother, Lao Zhang, with a smile. Lao Zhang looked frightened until he could not stop beating his heart. Then he picked up the tea and was about to drink it.
I drank it, but I didn't know what came to mind. I put the tea down when it reached my mouth.
The hearts of the two junior brothers seemed to rise and fall with Qin Yifan's hands. Seeing that the tea had reached his mouth, Qin Yifan put it down again. Junior brother Xiao Li was still young after all, and his face was full of disappointment. Fortunately, Qin Yifan had his back to him.
You probably didn't see the expression on his face.
Senior brother Lao Zhang has more experience, there is nothing unusual, and he looks normal: "What, shopkeeper, do you have any orders?"
"I don't dare to tell you, but I really need to ask you two for advice on something." Qin Yifan no longer held the tea in his hands and put it on the table.
"The shopkeeper is so polite!" Brother Lao Li still had a smile on his face, and his words were as polite as a foreigner: "I don't dare to ask for advice, but I can tell you everything I know."
"What will happen if I drink this cup of tea?" Qin Yifan looked casual, but the question he asked was very embarrassing.
"..."
As soon as Qin Yifan's words came out, there was a period of deathly silence. The expressions of the two junior brothers also changed drastically, especially junior brother Xiao Li, whose face turned red and white, and looked at Qin Yifan with a little surprise and amusement.
dissatisfied.
After a long while, senior brother Zhang finally managed to squeeze out a smile: "The shopkeeper is joking, this tea is from our store."
There was no answer. Qin Yifan's eyes seemed to be able to penetrate all obstacles and see directly into the hearts of the two of them. The senior brother wanted to say something more, but he could only open his mouth and couldn't say anything.
"Why are you talking to him so much?" The junior brother obviously didn't have the shame of his senior brother. He could still force himself to laugh when someone exposed him. He shouted and rushed forward across the table.
Before anyone arrived, a burst of white smoke exploded, covering the entire lobby of the inn. Then the senior brother's nervous voice was heard: "Be lenient, shopkeeper!"
It seemed as if nothing had happened. There was no sound except a gentle "chi" in the smoke, and there was no movement of fighting. Except that the smoke was still filling the air and the scenery inside could not be seen clearly.
Everything is normal.
Then, there seemed to be a sudden gust of wind, and the thick smoke in the inn lobby was blown away in an instant.
Junior brother Xiao Li maintained a ridiculous forward posture, but his body did not dare to move. In the middle of his raised face, an ordinary-looking kitchen knife was placed in front of him. Xiao Li could even feel the kitchen knife.
The blade was so sharp that as long as the owner of the hand holding the kitchen knife gently moved it forward, no one would doubt that Xiao Li's head would be any different from the skulls of prey that had been cut in half before.
Of course, the kitchen knife was in Qin Yifan's hand, and he was sitting on the bench. Except for extending his hands, the rest of his body seemed not to have moved, and the tea in front of him did not change at all.
However, what seems amazing to others is that Xiao Li's whole body seems to be covered by a transparent cover. Judging from the shape of the cover, it should be a tripod-shaped object, but this transparent cover
It seemed to be of no use to Qin Yifan. The persistent kitchen knife was as easy as cutting into tofu. Senior brother Lao Zhang could see at a glance from the side that there was a smooth and flat crack from top to bottom on the transparent tripod-shaped object.
Seeing that his junior brother was fine for the time being, senior brother Lao Zhang took a long breath, as if he had not seen the crack on his junior brother's cauldron, and offered his hand to Qin Yifan from afar across the table: "Thank you, shopkeeper, for showing mercy.
.”
There was a look of panic on Xiao Li's face, and his eyes seemed to have turned into cross-eyes. He was holding the kitchen knife on his face tightly, not daring to move. Big beads of sweat flowed down his hairline to his face.
It flowed through the earlobe again and slowly dripped from the earlobe.
