Chapter 336 Swallowing the Immortal Pill
After a while, Ye Mu found a corpse in the distance. He was shocked and lost all sleepiness. When he looked closely, he found that it was a wolve.
He touched his waist, and the little snake stretched out its head and stuck out its tongue. It seemed that it was it fucking again.
Ye Mu touched his chest again, feeling a little surprised: "Awesome, I only ate one leaf, and my injury was much better!"
Seeing the setting sun and it was getting late, Ye Mu was too lazy to pay attention to the wolf corpse, and rushed to Qinghe City with his own things.
Two hours later, when the moon was on the nine days, Ye Mu finally came outside Qinghe City.
Looking at the somewhat quaint city wall, some pictures appeared in Ye Mu's mind. He begged here and almost starved to death, and was then taken back by Old Man Zhang...
After three years, he came back. This place is as strange as before, and it doesn't feel the slightest sense of belonging.
I went into the city and found the cheapest inn to stay in. When I came out the next day, I only had a few cents left.
The reality is more severe than imagined. If there were no Blood Spirit Grass, Ye Mu could have expected that he would be miserable.
There were many people coming in and out of Fuyuan Pharmacy. Ye Mu hesitated for a moment and then walked in.
In the medicine shop, there were mixed with various medicinal fragrances. Ye Mu took a breath and felt like he was returning to Lao Zhang medicine shop.
However, it is too big here, and even the guys are wearing special clothes. Many of the people coming and going are in brocade clothes and silk belts, with extraordinary identities.
Even the doctor has several digits, and the medicinal materials are even more dazzling, which makes Ye Mu dazzled.
"Are you seeing a doctor?"
A young square-faced guy was a little impatient when he saw Ye Mu looking around.
Especially when he saw Ye Mu dressed in a shabby manner, he felt a little contempt: "If nothing happens, don't stop here, there are still many people who are seeing a doctor!"
"Ahem, I'm here to sell herbs. You should have to collect it in your store, right?" Ye Mu pretended not to see his face and calmly explained his purpose.
The guy looked at Ye Mu up and down, and saw that his hands were empty, he couldn't help but sneer: "Selling medicine, why didn't I see that there was medicine on you?"
“Here!”
Ye Mu carefully took out a red herb from his arms, watering like blood.
"What kind of herb is this? I haven't seen it before. Come and let the shopkeeper take a look!" The square-faced guy couldn't tell, so he believed Ye Mu's words.
With the guy, Ye Mu came to a separate counter, and an old man with a white beard sat upright on a wooden chair, looking at an account book in his hand. Next to him, a young man of seventeen or eighteen was lowering his head and sorting out the herbs in the counter.
"Shopkeeper, there is a herb collector!" The square-faced guy whispered.
The white-bearded old man raised his eyelids and glanced at Ye Mu casually. When he saw what was in his hand, a trace of light flashed in his old eyes. He put down the account book and stood up, a little surprised: "Blood Spirit Grass, good luck, brother."
"Old sir, how much can this Blood Spirit Herb sell?" Ye Mu smiled and blocked the herbs on the counter.
The old man with white beard glanced a few times, pondered for a moment, and said, "You are a blood spirit herb for fifty years, but you have only one leaf missing, and the medicinal properties are somewhat lost. How about ten taels of silver?"
The price is a bit low, but Ye Mu knew that he was just a little bit low and it was normal for the price to be suppressed. However, he still tried to say: "Old sir, Blood Spirit Grass is not common, and I think other pharmacies are happy to collect it."
The white-bearded old man showed an accident. Unexpectedly, this young man, who was not young, dared to bargain with him. His grandson was so old, but he couldn't even wear clothes.
"In this way, I will give you at most fifteen taels, and I can't get more."
"Trade is completed!" Ye Mu knew how to advance and retreat, so he made an agreement on the spot.
Soon, Ye Mu had a heavy bag of silver in his hand.
The white-bearded old man smiled kindly: "Young man can find the Blood Spirit Grass, which shows that he has some skills. If you have any medicinal herbs in the future, you can come to our store, and it is guaranteed not lower than the others."
Ye Mu nodded, took the money and walked out of the pharmacy.
He went to the garment shop to buy two good sets of clothes. After changing it, he finally felt a little bit like a human being. He went to the inn and had a good meal. Only when the wine and meat passed through the intestines, he realized that life was so wonderful.
The next day, Ye Mu got up early and opened the window, and the fresh air came to his face.
"With a little snake here, I'm not short of money for the time being. Now I have two ways, one is to go to a private school, participate in the imperial examination and become an official, and the other is to go to a martial arts school, practice martial arts and strengthen your body, and become a martial artist."
Ye Mu smiled bitterly: "It's not easy to choose between two, so let's try it for the time being."
On that day, Ye Mu spent five taels of silver to sign up for a private school and a martial arts school, going to each of three days a week, and the remaining one day to make money by collecting herbs.
Six days later, Ye Mu entered the mountains and asked the little snake to help find precious herbs.
He followed behind and soon found a wild ginseng plant.
On this day, Ye Mu also gained a lot and returned happily.
This time he sold herbs and got another ten taels of silver, which can ensure that he eats meat every day in the next week.
At the same time, he discovered why the little snake didn't eat food. It turned out that it was to eat those precious herbs. Today, most of the herbs were in the little snake's stomach, otherwise it could be sold for more money.
However, he did not blame him. This was found by the little snake, and he could eat it all, and he didn't dare to sell too much for the time being, otherwise it would cause suspicion.
In this way, one person and one snake lived in Qinghe City, where he had no relatives for more than half a year. At this time, heavy snow was falling in the sky, and it was already the cold winter month.
During this period, Ye Mu made friends with many people, which can be considered as gaining a foothold in this city. At the same time, he is wise in studying and practicing martial arts to strengthen his body. His figure and temperament have grown a lot.
Now, he is wearing a mink coat, with golden cloud shoes, and two servants behind him, with a strong and energetic face, and there is no way he looks like a beggar.
"I didn't expect that the one hundred taels of life would be earned by this little snake for me."
Ye Mu touched his chest. Since the little snake helped him make the first money, Ye Mu let him live in his chest, so that no one else could see it.
Looking at the town at the foot of the mountain, Ye Mu smiled faintly: "Old Zhang, I'll fulfill my promise!"
He took two slaves and walked towards the town, came to the Lao Zhang medicine shop, and found that the door was closed and not opened.
Turning around and coming to Lao Wang's pancake shop, Ye Mu bought three pancakes, and then tasted the familiar taste, while asking, "Why didn't Old Man Zhang open the door? With his stinginess, how could he waste time and rest?"
"Are you Xiao Ye?" Lao Wang didn't recognize Ye Mu at first, and then he said a little surprised after he spoke.
"It's me." Ye Mu nodded, "You haven't changed much."
"It seems that you have posted it, I really can't imagine it." Lao Wang's expression was a little complicated.
"You haven't told me about Old Man Zhang yet?"
"He is almost dying of illness, so why do you still open a pharmacy?"
"Is sick?" Ye Mu was stunned and felt a little heavy for a moment.
"Yes, otherwise why would it be closed?"
Bang! Lao Wang beat the dough and made sparks float.
Ye Mu was silent for a moment, bought all the cakes from Lao Wang, and walked towards Old Man Zhang's house without a sound.
