Su Cheng jumped directly onto a tall willow tree next to him, looked down through the top of the tree, and saw the scene of the flower garden in full view.

The apprentice went in from the flower garden without stopping, and went directly to the snow lotus that Su Cheng had seen in the afternoon.

The snow lotus was crumbling under the night wind. The apprentice took out a cloth naan, carefully dug out the lotus from the root, and wrapped it carefully.

Su Cheng sat on the top of the tree, shaking his legs.

He didn't expect that such a big signboard of Jishi Medicine Hall would need to steal medicine.

Although the snow lotus is precious, it is not so risky. If someone finds out, it will be a steal.

The apprentice put the cloth bag in his arms, and wanted to leave, Su Cheng also planned to come to the gate of the flower garden to get the stolen goods.

But another familiar figure appeared deep in the garden.

Su Cheng originally wanted to get down from the tree, but was startled by this man, and immediately held his breath and concentrated.

"Bamboo Butler..."

Before the apprentice left, he saw a figure walking out of the bamboo forest, and was frightened in place.

"Leave Xuelian, you can leave."

The bamboo butler still had a serious look, showing no signs of happiness or anger.

The apprentice didn't expect to be discovered, so he put his hands on his chest.

"The Bamboo Steward, our shopkeeper, said that this is a rare treasure of thousand-year-old snow lotus, and it is worth thousands of gold. If you cooperate with us, your benefits will definitely be indispensable at that time."

The bamboo steward didn't speak, the apprentice thought that what he just said had moved his heart, so he turned his head and was about to leave.

But he didn't want to see a piece of bamboo piercing through his chest in the next second.

The sharp head of the bamboo point pierces directly through his heart.

Su Cheng sat on the tree and gasped.

If he was right, the murderous bamboo appeared out of thin air from the bamboo steward.

It was as if the bamboo steward had suddenly appeared from the bamboo forest.

The emerald green bamboo was pulled out from the body of the dead man, and it was not stained with any blood.

There was no trace of blood on the man's black skirt.

The bamboo steward took out the snow lotus from his bosom, opened the cloth bag, and replanted it in its original position.

Only then did Su Cheng realize that this snow lotus was much more energetic than before.

There are red blood stains on the petals, which are absorbed by the snow lotus like nutrients.

Su Cheng's eyes widened, this flower can suck human blood.

No wonder the apprentice didn't shed a drop of blood when he was pierced through his body just now.It seems that they have been used as fertilizer for this snow lotus.

The bamboo steward still dragged the man's body away expressionlessly and hid it in the bamboo forest.

Su Cheng breathed a sigh of relief after confirming that there was no one there. He sat on the top of the tree, the moonlight was shining beautifully, shining on the snow lotus in the flower garden.

Su Cheng sat for a long time before coming down from the tree.

What he can now be sure of is that the bamboo steward is not human.

As for whether it is a monster or not, it has yet to be confirmed.

As for the origin of that strange snow lotus, Su Cheng had no idea.

He walked all the way to his yard, but someone was already waiting at the door.

It was none other than the bamboo steward who killed someone in the flower garden just now.

Su Cheng watched him subconsciously reach out to hold the treasure in his bosom.

The treasure didn't call the police, but Su Cheng's heart hung high.

"Master Su, Manager Li of Jishi Pharmacy has been waiting for you for a long time."

The bamboo steward looked normal, his face was calm, and his eyes towards Su Cheng were also normal.

Su Cheng didn't know if he had been discovered just now, so he could only bite the bullet and walk into the courtyard.

As soon as he entered the door, the shopkeeper of Jishi Pharmacy came forward with a smile on his face.

"Master Su, this villain is looking forward to you."

Su Cheng looked at the shopkeeper Li with a strange face.

Is this guy out of his mind? While sending people to steal snow lotus, he came here to find himself.

What is this going to do?
The shopkeeper Li was terrified by Su Cheng's eyes, and couldn't help touching his face twice to make sure there was nothing special, so he spoke again.

"Master Su, you are a young and promising young talent. I brought you a few packs of tea specially, and I would like you to comment on it."

Su Cheng and shopkeeper Li entered the room.

Not only did the bamboo butler not follow in, he even closed the door intimately.

Su Cheng coughed twice, he looked at shopkeeper Li in front of him, there were indeed several boxes of tea on the table.

Su Cheng picked up the tea box with his hands, and saw that it was indeed not tea.

The white silver is neatly arranged.

There are at least two hundred vehicles.

Su Cheng raised his eyes and looked at shopkeeper Li. It was obvious that he wanted to bribe himself.

It's just a pity that Su Cheng really didn't dare to accept the money.

Money is a good thing, but it also depends on who gets it.

This Jishi Medicine Hall was killed by the steward Zhu just now as an apprentice, how could I dare to accept his things.

"Treasurer Li, what are you doing?"

Su Cheng closed the lid and pushed the thing back directly.

Shopkeeper Li probably felt that Su Cheng was being polite, so he smiled again and pushed the things back.

"Lord Su, this is just a small thought. In the past years, Zhang Butou and others have worked hard, and our major pharmacies have also expressed it.

Su Cheng was stunned, no wonder Zhang Xiang and others regarded him as a thorn in their side.

Of course, he would not refuse the opportunity of free money.

But Su Cheng doesn't dare to accept the money now, Meiyuan and the magistrate's wife are full of strange things, and he doesn't want to be involved by these people.

"Shopkeeper Li, in previous years it was the rule of previous years, and this year is the rule of this year. I have never liked drinking tea, so please take it back. If you have nothing to do, I want to go to bed early, and I have to get up early tomorrow."

Su Cheng had already issued an order to evict customers, so shopkeeper Li had no choice but to leave with his things.

Su Cheng was thinking about saying hello to Bai Suzhen, but in the middle of the night, when he thought of the face of the bamboo housekeeper, Su Cheng felt shuddering, so he gave up altogether, and waited until tomorrow morning to talk about it.

Silent all night.

As soon as Su Cheng opened the door the next morning, he saw the bamboo steward standing outside.

"I go……"

Su Cheng was startled, subconsciously took a few steps back.

The bamboo steward opened his mouth expressionlessly.

"Master Su, Miss has arrived..."

Su Cheng looked confused, and looked up at the sky, the sun hasn't risen yet, what is the prefect lady doing here so early.

Before he had time to think about it, Su Cheng followed the bamboo steward to the main hall.

The magistrate's wife is already waiting inside.

Just like what I saw before, the magistrate's wife, who is nearly fifty years old, is like a little girl in her prime.

Although the dress is gorgeous, it is hard to hide its youthful atmosphere.

And this time Su Cheng obviously felt that the face and skin of the magistrate's wife were better than the previous meeting.

"lady……"

Su Cheng bowed his head and saluted, she smiled and motioned Su Cheng to sit down.

"How was Master Su's rest last night?"
