First, I walked to the stall where I bought the trowel yesterday.

Maybe Li Hao's eating style yesterday was too outstanding. The stall owner greeted him from a distance with a surprised look on his face: "Little brother, what's wrong with you?"

"Forget it, I haven't walked a long way for a long time and my feet are blistered!" Li Hao turned to the stall and only ordered two steamed buns this time.

Li Hao slowly gnawed the steamed buns and asked the stall owner: "Uncle, where is the pharmacy?"

He looked Li Hao up and down: "Little brother, you are so thin, why are you running outside alone? Aren't you looking for trouble? What disease do you have? The drugstore goes straight down this street and turns right for 50 meters."

"Thank you, uncle. By the way, wrap it with ten trowels for me. I'll save it for the journey."

After taking the trowel, Li Hao turned around and slowly turned toward the pharmacy.

Alas, this feeling is back to the days when I was wandering alone.But at that time, I didn’t even have to eat steamed buns!It's just that my body and bones were a little stronger at that time than now. At least, I wouldn't catch a cold after resting in a ruined temple for a night!I thought it was too simple. I didn’t expect that after so many years, I would not adapt to it.

The drugstore is very small, with only one old man with a white beard.Seeing Li Hao limping over, he threw away the fan in his hand and hurried over to help Li Hao. "Little brother, why did you come here alone? Where are your family members?"

Li Hao smiled bitterly and said, "Hey, everyone in the family has gone to play!"

The old man was so angry that he blew his beard and glared: "It's so outrageous. The child is so sick, and the adults actually go to play!"

Li Hao laughed: "Old sir, you can't blame them, they can't come back!"

"Little brother, I'm so excited. Otherwise, how about you study medicine with me first? I'll make sure you grow fat. Don't be like now, with only bones and not much meat on your body!" Seeing that Li Haoren was very tough, He is also relatively optimistic, and his skills seem to be very flexible. The old man has begun to think of accepting a disciple.

Shaking his head, Li Hao said: "Thank you, grandpa! I'd better stop studying. Please help me take fever medicine first."

The old gentleman sighed and stretched out his hand first: "Little brother, I just suffered from the cold. It's nothing. I'll give you some medicine right now. But you have to be careful about your recovery. It's not fun to have a fever for a long time!" Turn around and go. Went to prepare medicine.

The old man put the prepared medicine together and prepared to find a bag to put it in.Li Hao quickly shouted: "Grandpa, can you cook some medicine here?"

The white-haired old man looked at Li Hao in surprise. It was strange that he would say such a thing. Most people would take it back and slowly cook it themselves. "Little brother, you just came from outside. I'm really sorry for you! Okay, I'll help you boil the medicine right now."

Li Hao followed the branch and walked inside, saying: "Don't bother grandpa, I can do these things myself."

The old man in the drugstore didn't stop him. He just watched Li Hao quickly put all the medicinal materials into the casserole specially used for boiling medicine, carefully lit the tinder, and slowly heated up the fire.The old man shook his head when he saw it, what a sensible and poor child he was.

"Little brother, where are you going and what are you going to do this time?"

"I'm going to find the gods!"

The old man suddenly burst into laughter, stretched out his skinny hand and touched Li Hao's head: "You are not confused because of the fever, are you? I really didn't expect that you would run out alone just for such an idea! "As he said that, he looked carefully at Li Hao up and down.

"I really want to find the gods!"

"I really don't know if you kid is really confused or crazy! My old man has never seen any gods in his whole life! Moreover, I have never heard anyone say that he has seen any gods, except what is said in the play. Look at you like this How far can you go with your thin body? Are you just going to keep walking to find the gods?"

"Yes, I will just walk and look for it. Even if I die of old age, I believe I will definitely be able to find it. A few days ago in Yexin Town, we saw gods in a restaurant. They were flying on swords. The scene was so beautiful, so beautiful. So beautiful! So, I must go find the immortal." Thinking of the moment when he saw the immortal at noon that day, Li Hao smiled happily, completely forgetting the pain now.

Seeing Li Hao's appearance, the white-haired old man reminded: "The medicine is ready! Just simmer it over low heat for a while."

"So this little brother is from Yexin Town. Do you know the boss from Yexiang?"

After hearing this name, Li Hao came back from his fantasy and asked excitedly: "Hey, you also know that Ye Xiang comes to the restaurant?"

"My little brother is very familiar with this restaurant! My daughter is the proprietress of that restaurant."

"Ah, you are the shopkeeper's Lord Taishan!" Li Hao felt that the world was small, so he walked out of Yexiang to the restaurant, and unexpectedly met the shopkeeper's relatives. "I'm the waiter in that restaurant, my name is Li Hao!"

The white-haired old man laughed happily and said: "I didn't expect that the naughty troublemaker my daughter calls you is a kid like you!"

Li Hao scratched his scalp in embarrassment, never expecting that his reputation as a troublemaker would spread here!

"In that case, you can stay here for a few days and tell them how they are doing."

"Then thank you, grandpa." Li Hao stopped being polite to him. He didn't owe the restaurant owner more than a penny or two, so there was no need to be polite.

Unexpectedly, at this unlucky time, I could meet someone with some connections. This is also a blessing in misfortune.Otherwise, I’m afraid I’ll have to run out of money again in the past few days!

Li Hao drank the medicine slowly and talked to the white-haired old man about what happened in the restaurant.When he talked about how naughty Li Hao was, he made the old man laugh and said, "He is really a naughty troublemaker!"

After finally meeting someone he had some connections with outside, Li Hao started chatting excitedly. He had swept away the depression he felt when he came out in the early morning. He also forgot about the pain in his feet and his head was still a little dizzy and swollen.

When he heard that the restaurant's business was booming and his daughter and son-in-law were in good health, the old man kept smiling.

Apart from occasionally going out to check the patient's pulse and dispense some medicine, the old man kept chatting with Li Hao.

"I said Li Hao, since you are so happy in the restaurant, why do you want to find some gods and learn some magic skills?" From Li Hao's tone, the old man could tell that although this guy is very naughty and mischievous , his daughter and son-in-law are still very reluctant to part with him, they simply treat him as their own child.Thinking of this, he couldn't help but feel sad for them.After just a moment of contact, the old man discovered that he also liked this sensible and naughty kid!If I could keep him, I wouldn't be lonely in my old age and would have more fun.

Li Hao's eyes were a little red and he said: "I can't bear to leave. When I left, I never dared to look back. I was afraid that once I looked back, I would never have the courage to leave again!" Li Hao wiped his nose and smiled. Said: "I hope I can find the immortal as soon as possible and report to the shopkeeper that I am safe as soon as possible."

"Ahem! What can I say about you kid? Is it worth it for that ethereal thing? But I hope you will be careful outside and don't make your body and bones as bad as today. Outside, it will be very troublesome if a person is sick. Yes, do you know?"

 

Li Hao nodded: "Thank you, grandpa, I will remember it." Even if he doesn't remind him, Li Hao will remember it unforgettably.Did you suffer less when you were homeless?However, if you get used to it, you will rarely catch a cold from the cold.This time I just forgot about it for a moment, forgetting that I haven't hung out outside for so many years.

"Grandpa, are you alone now?" Li Hao asked curiously. He had never seen anyone who looked like a relative of grandpa until now.

"Yes, grandpa is a person. It's just that he has been reluctant to close this pharmacy these years. No, in two years, I will go to my son-in-law's house to enjoy my life." Looking at this pharmacy, the old man was full of memories.

Li Hao stuck out his tongue: "Fortunately, you didn't go to the shopkeeper's place to enjoy the blessing a few years ago, otherwise Li Hao would have suffered a lot!"

The old man was so amused that he laughed again and said, "So, we are destined to be together!" At this point, the old man looked at Li Hao again, "You guy, you don't say anything even if you have blisters on your feet!"

He went in and boiled a bucket of water and came out, "There is vinegar in this, you soak it first. I will prepare you some refreshing powdered medicine later. It's really hard for you, kid!" He slowly went back. I found some medicinal herbs and slowly crushed them with a medicinal roller.

"Thank you, grandpa. I'm afraid you'll laugh!" Li Hao said sheepishly.

The old man said funnyly: "Are you prepared to suffer like this for this? Little guy, are you so proud of yourself at such a young age?"

"Of course. Doesn't it say in the play that a person needs face and a tree needs bark? If you don't have face or skin, you can't live!"

"Little Guitou, that's right, I know this too. But grandpa tells you, sometimes it's important not to be so shameless. Otherwise, what shame will you have if your life is gone? Of course, this also depends on the situation, just like you It’s totally not worth the shame just now!”

Li Hao scratched his scalp and said with a red face: "I know this too, but sometimes I am embarrassed!"

The old man laughed again and pointed at Li Hao: "A naughty guy like you would be embarrassed. How come you don't feel embarrassed for deceiving your uncle Sanniu and my son-in-law?"

Li Hao said awkwardly: "Isn't this familiar to everyone?"

The old man stroked his gray beard: "It's okay, just treat it like you're in a restaurant. Grandpa likes you so much when he sees you, so you don't have to be embarrassed."

"I also think grandpa is very kind, just like my own grandpa!"

"You're the only one who knows how to flatter me! Tell me about your grandfather?"

Having said this, Li Hao's eyes turned red again and he stopped talking.

"Okay, if you don't say it, don't say it. Don't be unhappy." Seeing that Li Hao was unhappy, the white-haired old man quickly comforted him. Everyone has his own sad past, just like his wife. Alas, it should be over after a few years. Went to stay with her.Thinking about it, the old man also became sad.

When he got up the next day, Li Hao had nothing to do, so he and the old man learned to identify medicinal materials.As a result, the old man got excited and explained some main medicinal materials to Li Hao in detail.Li Hao thought it was quite new, so he listened carefully from the side.

Seeing Li Hao listening carefully, the old man became more interested.In addition to introducing several main herbs, he also explained to Li Hao one by one the growth areas and shapes of those herbs, and found a medicinal material book for him to read.

Li Hao took the thick medicine book and flipped through the strange patterns, but he didn't recognize the words.I don’t know how much he listened to what the old man said.

Later, when I looked through it, I felt it was really tasteless, because I had seen many herbs on it, but I couldn't figure out what they were for.Li Hao interrupted the old man's explanation: "Grandpa, which medicinal materials are you talking about in the book? They look familiar to me, but I just can't name them!"

The old man stopped in astonishment. He had been talking for so long in vain!He quickly took the book and talked about the commonly used herbs carefully.When he heard about herbs for treating colds and knife wounds, Li Hao asked carefully several times.

But I forgot a lot in the blink of an eye!The old man lost his interest, sighed and said: "Li Hao, you should stay with me for a year or two. Grandpa will teach you how to read. It will be very troublesome for you to walk outside without knowing how to read." . In many places, they don’t understand what you say, and you don’t understand what they say. Then you will become like a blind man!”

Li Hao chuckled: "It's not as serious as grandpa said, I won't learn to read with you, it's so boring!" Remembering that a few years ago, the shopkeeper wanted to teach him to learn to read, but this kid was reluctant. Always thinking of ways to get away.Until now, Li Hao only knows his own name and the numbers one to ten!

The old man shook his head helplessly: "Well, you should remember these medicinal materials first! In the future, if you encounter a small problem outside, you can also pick some medicine yourself." This kid doesn't want to suffer some losses outside. Change it.When he comes back some year, he may think of learning these things.

In this way, Li Hao rested in the drugstore for three days.In my free time, I asked the old man for advice on some cold and gold medicines and some herbal medicines to prevent snakes and insects.Not to mention, Li Hao actually memorized dozens of herbal medicines in three days!

What's even more weird is that this guy found a relatively thin paper, traced the shape of the herbs according to the pattern in the herbal medicine book, and drew a long snake or a poisonous bee on it, which made the old man dumbfounded!Let him do whatever he wants.

Three days later, the blisters on his feet finally healed, and it was time for Li Hao to hit the road again.This time, he had more medicinal materials and a few pages of drawings in his package.

Under the reluctant eyes of the old man in the drugstore, Li Hao once again embarked on his path to pursue immortality without looking back.

On the road again, Li Hao couldn't help but feel a lot.Fortunately, I was able to meet an old friend this time, otherwise I would have become a beggar now!

However, Li Hao also knew that he would still become a beggar in the near future.As it is now, there is no way out, there is not much in the way, and we will soon run out of ammunition and food.

How to maintain it in the future?

On this day, Li Hao was unlucky and did not make it to the next town, so he had to sleep in the mountains.Fortunately, this is not the first time Li Hao has experienced this kind of thing.

Looking at the big tree in front of him, looking left and right, Li Hao chose a big tree with three people hugging each other.There are many branches on the tree, so it should be a good resting spot.

Like an ape, Li Hao climbed up with a swish.First, I found a safe tree on top, took out my knife, and slowly cut a few stronger tree trunks, blocked them in the gaps between the branches, and then tied them with vines.In case you roll over in the middle of the night and fall into the tree.Finally, it was filled with soft leaves, and a small nest was created.

Li Hao carefully put the knife into a close-fitting wallet. This wallet was made for him by Sanniu.In the past, Li Hao always wanted to imitate some hero's play so that he could look cool in front of Xiaomi, so he pestered Sanniu and asked him to make a small leather wallet to prevent the knife from accidentally cutting his flesh.Sanniu couldn't resist him and asked his wife to sew one for Li Hao.

I don’t know what Sanniu is doing now. Do you miss Li Hao?

With a sigh, Li Hao carefully tied the wallet around his waist.He took out two trowels from the package and started to chew on it. This time, Li Hao learned the lesson again and brought a small gourd given to him by the old man in the drugstore. He no longer felt dry mouth and smoke on the way, but There is no feeling of drinking water anymore.
