Second Master Xue of the Red Chamber has space

Chapter 225 Companion Demon Flower

Xue Hong was distracted in front of someone's shop, and the little guy murmured again and carried out a big basket to dry the medicine, but this time Xue Hong didn't listen to his thoughts, but saw the big basket in the basket. A small black-red flower exclaimed: "The companion demon flower!"

The boy was taken aback by Xue Hong's roar: "Oh my God, where did this person come from so recklessly, what are you calling for? I almost spilled the medicine all over the floor."

Xue Hong's eyes were fixed on the little flower. Although it looked small and its dark color had lost its original brilliance, Xue Hong recognized it at a glance. This and Chun'er once showed her The semi-demon flower drawn on the atlas is exactly the same.

Seeing that Xue Hong was still in a daze, the young man boldly approached him and waved his hand in front of his eyes: "Young master, what are you looking at? Why are you so focused?"

Only then did Xue Hong come back to his senses, and suddenly smiled and said: "Man, I want to ask who is in charge of your pharmacy? Where is the owner, can I meet you?"

Although the young man seriously doubted whether Xue Hong's brain had some disease, but seeing that he was well-dressed and looked like a brother from a rich family, he nodded: "Our pharmacy is inherited from our ancestors, and our owner is at the counter, young master. plz follow me."

Xue Hong followed the boy into the pharmacy, and saw an old man sitting at the counter sighing, looking very distressed.

The little guy stepped forward: "Shopkeeper, a young master is looking for you."

The old man regained his energy immediately, got up quickly and said, "Oh, my guest officer, what's wrong with you? What symptoms do you have? How long has it lasted? Let me take your pulse first."

The old man obviously thought that Xue Hong came to see a doctor because he was not feeling well. Although this pharmacy mainly sells medicines, it also treats people to treat some minor ailments and pains. Generally, the customers who come here are for minor ailments. , Those with serious symptoms will not come here to see it.

Xue Hongxin said that the old man was too good at chatting, he was obviously fine, but the old man seemed to hope that there was something wrong with him.

"That...the shopkeeper misunderstood, I'm not here to see a doctor, I'm here to buy medicine."

"Oh, oh, it's okay to buy medicine, and it's okay to buy medicine, and bring your prescription."

The old man said in his heart that although he made little money buying medicines, he was always a customer when he came to the door. He hadn't started a mess until now, and he finally hoped for a customer, so he couldn't just send it away for nothing.

Xue Hong waved her hand: "I don't have any prescriptions, I just want the medicinal materials that your buddy just moved out to dry."

Those ones?Those are old medicines that have been stored for a long time, and they are taken out to dry to prevent mold and moisture. The medicinal materials themselves are not very good, so why buy those that are good?
Xue Hong took out 20 taels of cash and put it on the counter, pretending to be deep and said: "The shopkeeper doesn't know, it's because there is a brother in our family who is very smart, and the husband who taught him said he has a bright future, so The whole family has great expectations for him. But who would have thought that this child is probably too smart, and has great curiosity about everything. Today he likes Fu Bixing, tomorrow he likes parallel prose poetry, but he just doesn’t do well. My parents are going to die of anxiety for the article test of merit. Now he is obsessed with the art of distorting yellow. It is not enough to study medical skills at home, and he has to cook medicine for the servants at home. I went out to look for any medicinal materials that have passed their efficacy, and I took them back to him, and let him cook the medicine. If the curative effect is not good, he will not be obsessed with practicing medicine. Sooner or later, it is serious to learn. So I saw you just now Those medicines that the guys in the store dried up are..."

The business of this pharmacy is getting worse day by day. It is a lie for the shopkeeper to see the 20 taels of white money and not be tempted, but those medicinal materials...

"My young master, you have also seen that the medicinal materials that the guy took out to dry just now are indeed not very good. If I can't sell them again, I plan to throw them away. To be honest, even if they are in my drugstore now I will make it clear to the people who come to buy the medicinal materials that such medicinal materials will not only reduce the curative effect by half, but even if there are any consequences after taking this medicine, my pharmacy will not be responsible for it."

Xue Hong nodded and said: "Naturally, no matter whether this medicinal material can cure diseases, or if there are any adverse reactions after eating, I will not come to trouble you. After buying this medicinal material, I will not even tell my brother about it. Where did you buy the medicinal materials, what do you think?"

The old shopkeeper stroked his beard, and then nodded: "Well, since that's the case, you can just take away all the old medicines in my shop for the money you gave. If you want, I will ask the assistant to pack it. You wait one time."

Xue Hong originally wanted to say no need, but seeing that the guy was already packing the medicinal materials happily, she didn't say anything.After the medicine was packed, the clerk delivered it to the corner of the two intersections with a trolley, and Xue Hong gave him another piece of broken silver: "Just send it here, and I will let my servants push it away. If you send it My family, the concierge at home knows you, so if you can’t keep it in the future, if my brother finds your pharmacy to make trouble, it’s not good.”

The little guy didn't have to continue to deliver the goods, and he had money to get, so he went happily.But Xue Hong personally pushed the cart full of medicinal materials into a dead end, and when he came out, he was the only one who walked leisurely to Xue's mansion.

After returning home, Xue Hong went straight into the space, carefully showed the little black and red flower to Chun'er, and said nervously: "Chun'er, come and see, is this the Companion Demon Flower?"

Chun'er blinked twice, nodded and said: "Yes, this is indeed the Companion Demon Flower. It's just..."

"Just what?"

Chun'er lowered her head: "Perhaps the people in this space where the master lives don't recognize the Companion Demon Flower. It only blooms once in 30 years, and every time it blooms, there will be rare beasts nearby. This flower... must be It can only be picked after defeating the fierce beast. But it looks very much like another flower called red peony. The root system of the red peony is cut off, and the flowers are so sickly. Otherwise, if the companion demon flower is picked by the root, it will not rot even if it is left for ten thousand years, how could it be like this?"

Chun'er said these words with a heartbroken heart, and rubbed the tip of her nose against the appalling Companion Demon Flower, her eyes full of pity.

Xue Hong originally thought that in order to get this companion demon flower, she must go to some deep mountains and old forests to fight against fierce beasts, but she didn't want to find it in a shop, but the current situation of this flower made Xue Hong feel cold, thinking that she could get it No effort at all, how could...
