Xu Changsheng woke up very early on this day, but he couldn't ask Li Tui to deliver the tofu like yesterday. He had promised not to cause his sister any trouble.

It would be nice if they could ask Xu Changsheng to deliver tofu for them. Even if they don't have much money for a day, it's good that Xu Changsheng can live on.

Otherwise, I really don’t know how a person can grow up.

If you go early, you will come back early. So Xu Changsheng planned to go into the mountains to collect some medicine while the weather was still sunny. Although he could not starve to death by delivering tofu, a person must have some pursuits, right?

Moreover, in a short time, Li Ruan's family will move away, and Xu Changsheng will be unemployed, so he has to save some food in advance.

He left immediately, tied his shoes and trouser legs, took the medicine hoe and medicine basket on his back, and left. He also brought enough lunch. This time Xu Changsheng planned to go deep into the mountains to take a look. After all, medicinal materials in several nearby mountains were harvested.

It's almost done, only some worthless herbs are left.

As soon as he entered the mountain, Xu Changsheng seemed to have changed into a different person, agile and fast. After all, people rely on mountains to eat mountains, and mountains also eat people.

The mountains became more and more deserted as we walked, and there were even no roads in some places. Xu Changsheng could only rely on his body's advantage to move forward. In such a place, there were valuable herbs, but there were also many poisonous snakes and beasts.

Although the people in the small town have never been into the mountains and don't know much about it, Xu Changsheng has a deep understanding of it. In his early years, Xu Changsheng was young and inexperienced, and he also went into the mountains once.

That time, Xu Changsheng saw two wild boars fighting because they were in heat, plowing deep ditches on the ground. If he hadn't learned to climb trees since he was a child, Xu Changsheng would have thought that his life would be handed over to them.

Those huge fangs can pierce through his stomach with just a flick.

The young man in coarse cloth carefully put the herbs he had just dug into his backpack and continued walking into the mountains. After all, wealth can only be found in danger.

Maybe you can dig up a century-old ginseng or something, and you won’t have to worry about it for a long time. You can even buy some delicious food to eat with Aunt He, and you can also put some snacks at home for when Liang Mi comes.

He was extravagant once.

We walked to a mountain col, close to a stream. The mountainous terrain was humid and covered with moss. Birds were chirping overhead, and fresh beast footprints could be seen on the shore. Xu Changsheng couldn't help but tremble a little. No matter how bold he was, he was just a young boy.

Xu Changsheng carefully walked to the stream, lowered his head and wiped his face with water. When he raised his head, he was stunned.

On a small mound opposite, a small purple flower bloomed extremely brightly, and the fragrance seemed to be smellable from a distance.

Xu Changsheng swallowed his saliva. He really came up with whatever he was thinking about. He unexpectedly came across a ginseng plant in such a place!

However, Xu Changsheng was not dazzled by joy. If a ginseng plant grows in a place like this, it will probably be guarded by ferocious beasts.

After all, he only had one life. Xu Changsheng thought about it and decided to retreat.

But it was already too late. On a big tree opposite, a pair of green eyes were staring straight at him.

Xu Changsheng tightened the medicine hoe in his right hand, and ran away with the wild leopard. There was only one way to die! No matter how fast he ran.

Since you can't run, you can only go up.

Xu Changsheng slowly pulled out the useless hatchet behind him with his left hand. Only he, his parents and Liang Mi knew that he was left-handed. Now only he and Liang Mi knew about it, and it became a matter for them.

secrets between.

The wild leopard roared low, bent its limbs, and jumped down from the tree.

Xu Changsheng quickly ducked to the side and slashed the wild leopard with his hatchet.

But the wild leopard's fur was too smooth, and it only scratched a wound, which aroused its ferocity.

With one pull of his front paw, a large gash was made on Xu Changsheng's leg.

Xu Changsheng gasped in pain and his movements slowed down a lot. He could only roll to the side and use his Chinese medicine hoe to hit the wild leopard.

Dig in the stomach.

Immediately, a big wound was dug out, and the fur fell on his stomach.

The wild leopard roared and continued to rush towards Xu Changsheng, opening its bloody mouth condescendingly and biting down.

Xu Changsheng quickly picked up the hatchet and pointed it at its big mouth, and sure enough! The wild leopard bit the tip of the hatchet, and blood and saliva flowed onto Xu Changsheng's body, giving off a fishy stench.

Xu Changsheng's body trembled with fear, his hands felt weak, he turned his head and glanced at the creek not far away, and shouted loudly: "Le'an!"

The rising water condensed into a human figure, turning into Le'an, dressed in white.

Le'an looked at the scene in front of him and stretched out his right hand directly towards the wild leopard. With his fingers spread wide, a water arrow appeared in the sky and shot out at the wild leopard's forehead.

The water arrow exploded on the wild leopard's head, and a deep wound with bone visible appeared on its forehead.

The wild leopard was in pain again and knew it was outmatched. Dragging its injured body, it turned around and ran towards the mountains. After several leaps, it disappeared without a trace.

Xu Changsheng struggled to get up from the ground, only to find that his chest had also been scratched by a wild leopard. His clothes had also become tattered. Although it was not good in the first place, he really did not dare to go out wearing it after this time.

There were flowers and blood everywhere on his body, but Xu Changsheng could bear it. He had suffered much more pain than these when he was a child.

Le'an also came up from the stream, looked at the wounds on Xu Changsheng's body, cast a magic spell, and a green light shone around the wounds, and then frowned, "Xu Changsheng, why did you come so deep into the mountain?

You are seeking death."

Xu Changsheng sneered and said, "Isn't this because I want to collect more herbs?"

"Money or life is more important! I won't come to save you next time you run into such a remote place." Le An pointed at Xu Changsheng's wound and said.

Xu Changsheng shook his head like a rattle, "Not coming, not coming."

To be honest this time, Xu Changsheng was really frightened. He was still covered in cold sweat. He thought he was capable enough. If it weren't for Le'an, he might not be able to go back this time.

After the green light dissipated, Xu Changsheng found that the wound was no longer bleeding, but it was still bright red. Le'an was a little embarrassed and shrank his neck, "I only have so much ability, there is nothing I can do." After speaking, he scratched his head.

"I've been thinking about it for a long time, but I still haven't made any progress in my cultivation."

"No, no, no, this is already good."

Then I cleaned the wound by the stream, took some freshly picked herbs, chewed them, and applied them, but I felt pain again.

Without the threat of wild leopards, Xu Changsheng carefully dug out the ginseng and found that it was quite old, estimated to be hundreds of years old.

So I quickly asked Le'an to cast a spell to prevent the medicine from losing its effectiveness so quickly.

Then he dragged his injured body back home with Le An along the creek.

Back home, Xu Changsheng didn't bother to change his clothes, but simply wiped his face and went to the drug store. After all, the sooner this century-old ginseng is sold, the more effective it will be and the price will be higher.

He visited several pharmacies that usually sell medicines, but none of them gave him a price that satisfied him.

This is also normal. If you are a lonely boy and a half, who will you bully if you don't bully you? I will give you a little money. Is it too little? Okay, then don't sell it to me.

Finally, Xu Changsheng went to the newly opened drug store of Sun Qiao's family. The drug store is located in the south of the town. It is not a new one. It is said to be an old drug store in Panxia, ​​but it has also been renovated to be brand new. Xu Changsheng was carrying a large medicine basket on his back.

It is still shabby, and as soon as you walk in, you can tell that it is a small medicine farmer.

Just as the bead curtain made a sound, the shopkeeper and Sun Yuexuan walked out of the back room. Xu Changsheng was slightly surprised, "Miss Sun is here too."

Sun Yuexuan was stunned, she didn't expect

I met Xu Changsheng here. And from the looks of it, he was probably here to sell medicine. His clothes were still stained bright red, so he was probably injured.

Sun Yuexuan frowned. He and Xu Changsheng were not familiar with each other. They had only met a few times, but that didn't stop Su Sheng from having a good relationship with Xu Changsheng. Basically every time they went out together, Su Sheng would mention Xu Changsheng, so

He also has a good sense of Xu Changsheng.

Seeing Sun Yuexuan staring at him, Xu Changsheng smiled awkwardly. He quickly took the medicine basket from behind and said, "I'm here to sell medicine."

When it comes to the business of the bank, the shopkeeper naturally becomes familiar with it.

Xu Changsheng took out the herbs one by one, and the shopkeeper estimated the price one by one. When Xu Changsheng finally took out the century-old ginseng, the shopkeeper was stunned. After observing carefully for a while, he tentatively asked, "One hundred taels? Boy?"

To sell or not?”

Xu Changsheng was just about to agree. In several other drug stores, the highest price was only eighty-five taels. Unexpectedly, the price increased to fifteen taels when he arrived here.

Sun Yuexuan on the side coughed, and the shopkeeper was stunned, "One hundred and five taels, what do you think?"

Xu Changsheng was no different. Sun Yuexuan coughed again. Seeing both of them looking at her, Sun Yuexuan shook her twin ponytails and said: "My throat has not been feeling well these days, so I came here just to prescribe some medicine.

"

The shopkeeper thought for a while and said, "I see that this century-old ginseng of yours has just been unearthed. How about I give you a hundred and ten taels? You really can't have more."

Xu Changsheng quickly agreed, in case the shopkeeper regretted it, he would not even cry.

Next, the apprentice in the store counted the money and gave it to Xu Changsheng. One hundred taels were given as banknotes, and the rest were given as broken silver. Xu Changsheng's hands were shaking when he took the money. He had never seen so many in his life.

Money. Hide the money close to your body, and suddenly the wounds on your body don’t hurt so much.

Xu Changsheng picked up the medicine basket and was about to go back. But the shopkeeper suddenly stopped him, "Xu Boy, the century-old ginseng you sent happened to be a medicine we urgently need. It has helped us a lot, so I will give you a pair of golden sore medicine."

"

Seeing that Xu Changsheng didn't believe it, the shopkeeper shook his hands and said, "It's really for you."

Xu Changsheng took it and said with a smile: "Thank you, shopkeeper, and thank Miss Sun for me."

Of course he knew that this was given to him intentionally by Sun Yuexuan, and even the ten taels of silver that went up later were considered given to him by Sun Yuexuan. He and Sun Yuexuan were not familiar with each other, and the reason that made her do this must be Su Sheng.

After saying that, he turned around and walked away quickly.

He kept silently in his heart all the kindness given to him in the world, and then passed this kindness on to others.

In fact, the world is still full of flowers.

After returning home, Xu Changsheng opened his parents' room, carefully turned up their quilts, then opened a mezzanine on the bed and put the banknote and thirteen taels of broken silver into it.

There are also a few taels of broken silver and a silver bracelet that Xu Changsheng had stored before. This is the mother's dowry, and it is also the only dowry. She cannot sell it even if she is beaten to death. Even if Xu Changsheng was dizzy from hunger, the family's property was also gone.

When the sale was almost over, Xu Changsheng never thought of selling the silver bracelet.

After putting it away, Xu Changsheng went to wash it and apply the golden sore medicine given by the Sun family.

The next few days were peaceful. After Xu Changsheng delivered the tofu every day, he returned home to read and recuperate. The relationship with Li Ruan also gradually warmed up. If they were cousins ​​before, they are now real sisters.

Brother.

Liang Mize still runs around every day, and occasionally sets up stalls here and there along with the chatter and laughter, calling himself the "Seventh Son Divine Forwarder", while Liang Mi calls himself the "Sixth Son Divine Forwarder" in his own name.
