Chapter 280 279 [Battle]

The middle-aged man who was about to enter the city ahead turned his head to look at the old man who was being embarrassed by the soldiers, and couldn't help shaking his head and sighing.

Unfortunately, the other party could only complain in a low voice.If you talk about stepping forward to stop him, not to mention whether you have the guts, even if you stop him, so what?

It was nothing more than an extra reason for the soldiers guarding the city gate to blackmail the second person.

He Zhao followed suit and entered Sichun City with the team.

This city can be regarded as one of the hundreds of cities in the north, a little red among the green bushes.

In other places, the four seasons change, only the spring city is like spring all the year round, which is also the origin of the word four spring.Due to environmental factors, the population is definitely one of the most famous cities in the dynasty.

The exact population is unknown, after all, in his previous life, he was a hard-working son of the Yaomin who ran around all day in order to fill his stomach.The sky is big and the earth is big, where is the belly big?

"Steamed buns, warm steamed buns with vegetarian stuffing. Five cents apiece. They're cheap. Five cents apiece!"

"Seed cakes, two cents!"

"Fifteen cents for a bowl of chop suey noodles. Get a bowl in the morning and keep your spirits up for the day."

After leaving the range of the city wall, the lively atmosphere suddenly rushed over.

Not far in front of you is a spacious street lined with busy stall owners.

Shaobing, steamed stuffed buns, hot tea, chop suey noodles, rotten meat noodles, vendors selling vegetables, meat, art, wine, and snacks. There are many teahouses on the street facing the street, and there are many on the second floor with bird cages. , drinking tea and eating cakes high above, looking down at the rich kids in the street.

Just a few steps into the street, he saw shirtless men standing in front of the wine stall, holding sesame seed cakes in one hand and wine glasses in the other.

In short, it is worthy of being a big city in the north, with everything you need.Except for the contraband prohibited by the government, everything can be found on the street.Moreover, the price is not expensive, cheap and affordable.

If it came from the previous life, it would definitely be dazzled.

However, the surname He is quite knowledgeable. In terms of bustle and variety, etc., no matter how prosperous the ancient city is, how can it be more powerful than the modern world?

He crossed the crowd without any waves, looking for the pharmacy.

Liu Zi and others who followed, resisting the temptation of the smell of food, chased bitterly.

"Sixth brother, why don't you send someone to follow? The rest of you, go have breakfast first? Afterwards, meet up in the woods outside He's house?" One of the younger brothers put forward his own suggestion.

When the skinny and wretched man heard the words, his eyes lit up.

"Okay, it's you."

"what?"

"Oh shit, hurry up and follow."

The little brother who gave advice continued to follow with a wry smile on his face.

On the way, I looked back from time to time to see my friends sitting in front of the noodle stall eating noodles.

Six sons, fuck your uncle!

On the other side, on the way to find the pharmacy, He Zhao met some porters dressed as coolies.

Thirty miles away from Sichun City, there is a Jiaolong River.Legend has it that hundreds of years ago, a wounded dragon fell from the sky, and a river connected to the south was born from then on.

A well-known ruthless person scoffed at this.The local people always like to exaggerate, put some things on a high hat, or make up some legends, and use this myth to make their names spread far and wide.

With the convenience of a dock, the speed of water transport.Most of the goods, grains, specialties and so on in the north are transported to the south from Jiaolong Wharf.

Therefore, a large number of porters who carried goods were born.At the same time, many people were able to take a breath and live on meager wages.

The reason why it is said to be meager is because of the gangs in the city.

The merchant is at the top, the porter is at the bottom, and they eat two ends in the middle.

The merchants want to lower the price, and the gang-controlled porters will not unload their goods.Every day the goods dock at the dock, the loss is immeasurable, and I have to pinch my nose to admit it.

Porters want better pay, gangs don't want work.After two or three days like this, people who are hungry will naturally give in and come back to be dogs obediently.

If there were no gangs, the merchants would reduce their losses, and the income of the porters would skyrocket.

It's a pity that the dragon crossing the river can't overwhelm the local snake, not to mention the hateful gang, the actual controllers behind the scenes are actually the four big families of Sichun City.

In addition, the protection of the government forces, unless you have a background that is as good as the sky, otherwise hold your nose and admit it.You can't resist, you can only live from the heart.

He walked down the street, looking around from time to time.After a while, it is estimated that no pharmacy can be found.In desperation, he reached out to stop a pedestrian and asked.

"Brother, may I ask how to get to the pharmacy?"

"Did you see the intersection ahead? Turn left and go straight to the end. There is a Tongchuntang, the number one in the entire Sichun City." The passerby who was stopped by He Zhao was not annoyed, and pointed to the road.

"Thank you."

After all, he accelerated the speed of his feet.

After a while, he arrived at Tongchun Hall smoothly.

The size of the shop is not too big, and you can smell a strong smell of soup and medicine when standing outside the door.It seems that the shop not only sells medicinal materials, but also helps to decoct them.

The clerk at the door of the store saw the unfamiliar master coming, and immediately greeted him.

"Master, please come inside. What do you need?"

He followed the buddy inside, and when he heard the other person's inquiry, he got straight to the point.

"Tiger bone."

"Yo! Big customer. Hurry up, let me make you a cup of tea."

After speaking, he immediately brought tea, respectfully and respectfully served a cup of hot tea, and took another stack of pastries.

"You are drinking, I said. The tiger bones in our family are absolutely real. Unlike other pharmacies, a pair of tiger bones can be sold for several lifetimes. I would like to ask, do you want tiger bones to make wine?

If it is tiger bone wine, Tongchuntang has 30 years old, the key is that the price is not expensive, only 30 taels a catty.If tiger bones are used for medicine, a new set of tiger bones was received in the shop three months ago.

Except for the patella, the prices of other bones are not bad. "

Well, I can really say that.

No wonder it's a coincidence that Tong Chuntang asked the other party to welcome him.

In addition, 30 taels a catty, you tell me it's not expensive?

As for why the patella is valuable, although I didn't learn much about pharmacology in my previous life, I naturally knew a thing or two after being influenced by my ears and eyes in college.

Since ancient times, there has been a saying of killing a tiger and taking the patella.

The patella is the best part of the tiger bone, and it is also the top raw material for tiger bone wine.

Price, can it be the same!

Suddenly, he thought that if tiger bone wine was used as strong wine to soak other powdered medicinal materials, would the prescription be improved and its efficacy greatly enhanced?

It's just that this kind of thought was quickly thrown out of his head.

With 40 taels all over the body, a catty of 30-year-old tiger bone wine costs a full 30 taels of silver.Twenty catties, 600 taels of silver, the money for the second prescription came out.

Alas, poverty.JPG.

"How much is the cheapest."

"A tael of silver, it's guaranteed to be a real tiger bone. If you find that it's a fake, just smash the signboards and shops. If we resist a tael, we'll be bullshit."

The man patted his chest and swore that the ancient times were different from the modern ones. If modern people swear viciously, you can treat them as farts.If the ancients swear, they even bring their parents along, which is highly credible.

Of course, if you meet a shameless and shameless thief who doesn't recognize your relatives, you can only admit it.

"Look at the goods first."

"Got it."

Hearing this, the man turned and left.

After a while, he returned with a tiger bone wrapped in straw paper in his hand.

"Grandpa, please take a look."

He Zhao stretched out his hand to take it. At least he had studied medicine, and had experience in "Pharmacy" and "Pharmacy". He still had some experience in how to distinguish tiger bones.

The right hand shook the tiger bone wrapped in straw paper up and down, feeling the weight, and nodded inwardly.

If you want to distinguish the authenticity of tiger bones, you need to look at the relative density.The texture of real tiger bone is dense and hard, different from bones of the same part and volume in other animals.In terms of beef bones, the weight is almost twice as large.

Then, tear off the straw paper and observe the color.Generally, the tiger bones that have been removed soon are oily yellow, and the tiger bones will gradually turn gray as time goes by.

"Well, the color matches."

Immediately afterwards, he looked at the cross-section, and then moved up to his nose to sniff.

The cross-section of the real tiger bone has thin bone and thick bone wall, small cavity in the bone, and a large amount of bone marrow adhered to the inner wall. After drying, the bone marrow forms a lot of mesh, accounting for about two-thirds of the limb bone section. Accompanied by a strong fishy smell.

Well, the special fishy smell is very strong.

"Bring the knife."

When the guy saw it, he knew in his heart that he had met someone who knew how to do it.

So, without hesitation, he turned around to get the knife.

Two or three minutes later, the other party returned with a knife and handed it over calmly.

The man surnamed He took the knife from the hand, and used the knife to gently smash out some flour from the tiger bone, and put the flour in his mouth.

Immediately, the tongue and lips were slightly numb, and a bitter taste filled the mouth.

"Real tiger bones! 20 taels, packed."

"okay."

From the shop, he picked some medicinal materials that needed to be processed, processed, and time-consuming to dry, and he spent five taels of silver.All over the body, there are only 15 taels left.

The spirits are bought from the village, and twelve taels have to be removed.The remaining five taels, wanting to buy the rest of the medicinal materials in the pharmacy in Sichun City, is a fool's dream.But think of it early, and there are countermeasures.

Reaching out his hand to take the medicine handed by the man, he stuffed it into his wide cuff.People in this world usually dress in robes with wide sleeves, and only those generals who need to move frequently will wear tights.

I don't know which smart person invented the pockets hidden in the sleeves, which can be sewn in reverse.It seems that a purse is sewn into the sleeve and fixed on the cuff, which will not leak out and is easy to access. It has gradually been accepted by people and has become popular.

Moreover, clothes represent class.A person with wide cuffs must be an ordinary person without much thought.The narrower the cuffs of ordinary clothes and dresses, the more noble their status.

"Master, this is Tong Chun Tang's gift of nourishing qi and nourishing blood soup. Don't underestimate this soup. If the women in the family come to Tiankui, drink a small bowl, and they will feel much better."

"I am the only one in my family, and my old father was buried in the ground not long ago."

"."

"If you have a small bowl after having intercourse at night, you are guaranteed to be alive and well again. Usually, you can have a bowl every day occasionally, and it will strengthen your foundation and nourish your vitality, it's no problem."

"Not yet married."

"."

Good guy, you spend money without batting an eye, and don't even have a wife?
"Invigorating qi and nourishing blood soup, sold in this store, a can of one tael of silver."

"Come on, give it to me."

After saying that, He Zhao reached out and took the pot.

I said it was worth one tael of silver earlier, wouldn't it be over?
"This kid came to Sichun City early in the morning just to buy a can of nourishing qi and nourishing blood soup?" The gangsters who were watching and following almost lost their eyes.

Qi and blood soup, he likes to take a can with him when he goes shopping occasionally.With soup, four times a night is not a problem, and the money spent is guaranteed to be worth it.

"Could it be that boy He colluded with the young widow in the village? Otherwise, why do you have to mend it." While talking about the widow's gang, he followed closely behind the ruthless man.

Along the way, in order to toss the little tail, someone wandered around for an hour in a daze, and never took a rest during this period.

The people who were sent away early not only didn't eat, but also walked on their legs for nearly an hour and a half, their mouths were dry and their eyes stared.If it wasn't for being afraid of Liu Jiao's methods and insisting not to be lazy, he would have been lying down.

"Ha ha."

The one surnamed He smiled, had enough trouble, and was ready to go back to the village.

"Hey! There is a fight ahead, two martial arts disciples started fighting in the restaurant, everyone hurry up and watch the excitement." In the crowd on the street, someone howled.

Except for those who have something to do, most people are moving forward, wanting to see it quickly.

He Zhao, who was carrying a clay pot in his hand, was no exception. He finally came to Sichun City, and left after seeing the excitement, not too late!
Then, he followed the melon-eating crowd to watch the fun together.

"boom!"

After finally squeezing through the crowd, a tall, thick man dressed in a short jacket flew out from the door of the restaurant.

"Puff-"

The man fell on the bluestone-paved street, making a dull sound.

If an ordinary person falls like this, their internal organs will roll over and lie on the ground, unable to get up for a long time.

Looking at the big man again, he spat, got up from the ground numbly, and angrily got in again.

"Ping pong pong."

The figures in the restaurant flickered, and there were bursts of smashing sounds.

"boom!"

"Gudong-"

The railing on the second floor was cracked, and another man who had just entered fell from above.

Okay, I just stood there and watched the scene for 1 minute, and this person was thrown twice.

As a result, he got up and patted the ashes on his buttocks, and rushed in again with a hard head.

Is it hard?

He Zhao showed a surprised expression. The first time he fell was not too bad, but the second time he fell headfirst from the second floor.

"People who practice the same discipline are amazing."

"Fart, what's so great about having someone knocked out of the restaurant twice? Let me tell you, those who are in the Liuhemen are called masters. They can throw people out of the first door twice in a row."

There was a lot of discussion among the crowd. From their mouths, they learned that the two sides in this battle were disciples of Xingyimen and Liuhemen.

"boom!"

A figure suddenly fell from the third floor, and when the other person landed on the ground, everyone was surprised.

Without him, he is a big man in the same discipline.

But what is disappointing is that the man is only on the third floor.

The homecoming restaurant in front of me has only [-] floors in total.

The ruthless Zhao, who was eating melons and watching the show, secretly guessed whether the man would stand up again.

The disciple of Xingyi Sect climbed up from the ground again, and rushed in in a hurry.

"."

Coach, I want to learn this! !
