Hearing the young master mention the words Baicaomen, Chen Xuan suddenly realized that this mountain peak is where the gate of Baicaomen is located.
With this thought in mind, he raised his head and looked towards the mountain. Sure enough, there was a huge wooden door there, blocking men, women and children who wanted to pass through.
Moreover, there were four cold-looking men standing in front of the wooden door. The clothes of these four men were exactly the same as those of the Baicaomen disciples that Chen Xuan saw last night.
Recalling what Xiaolian said that the poison of Ruanjinxiang would take 24 hours to subside, Chen Xuan guessed that Ye Rong, the leader of the Baicao Sect, had not brought back his disciples yet.
The men, women, and children on the stone steps should have come to buy medicine from Baicaomen.
Now the time for selling traditional Chinese medicine has arrived, but the mountain gate has not yet opened, and many people on the stone steps are anxiously milling about.
It was obvious that these people, themselves, or their relatives or friends, were seriously ill and were in urgent need of treatment with medicinal herbs grown exclusively by Baicaomen. No one expected that Baicaomen, which always opened the mountain gate on time, would be delayed in opening today.
When Chen Xuan was about to walk through the stone steps and walk towards the back of the mountain, he heard the young man start shouting again, "Do you want to do business at Baicaomen? You are going to kill people if you don't open the door to sell medicine for so long."
But no matter how much the young master shouted, the four guards guarding the door remained motionless, like four pieces of wood.
When the young man was irritated, he found Chen Xuan looking at him. At that time, he glared at Chen Xuan and said, "Smelly beggar, what are you looking at? Have you never seen Gao Fu Shuai?"
When Chen Xuan heard this, he couldn't help but shook his head slightly and was about to leave.
But then a childish voice stopped his big brother, "Are you thirsty? I have water here."
Chen Xuan turned around and saw a little boy about seven or eight years old, talking to him. He also opened the kettle hanging on his waist with both hands, and then raised it in front of him, gesturing for Chen Xuan to come over and drink water.
Seeing that the child was kind-hearted, Chen Xuan immediately smiled and said thank you, but I'm not thirsty.
Brother, are you really not thirsty? I see that you haven't eaten or drank water for a long time. You must be starving. In addition to water, I also have bread here. Come over and eat some before you leave.
The little boy actually regarded Chen Xuan as a homeless man or a beggar.
But he did not look down on Chen Xuan like that young man, but instead showed a kind heart that moved Chen Xuan.
This made Chen Xuan couldn't help but think, no wonder Ji Wushuang wanted him to start this spiritual journey with the mentality of a newborn, because the younger he is, the less contaminated he will be by the mundane world.
This is exactly the case for little boys. Because they are very young and do not look at people through colored glasses, this alone makes them much better than adults.
Seeing the little boy's big eyes shining with light, as if he hoped Chen Xuan would accept his kindness, Chen Xuan felt that it would be bad if he refused.
So he smiled and was about to walk over and take a sip of water.
Next to the little boy, there were two women standing, one was very old, and the other was about the same age as Chen Xuan, and she was quite beautiful.
When Chen Xuan came over, the old lady touched the little boy's head and smiled happily and said Niu Niu is such a good boy. Grandma did not teach you in vain.
Grandma, I have always listened to you. If I meet someone who needs help, I will definitely help. Niuniu raised his head proudly.
Three or four seconds later, Chen Xuan walked up to the little boy, expressed his gratitude again, and then stretched out his hand to take the kettle handed over by the little boy.
But behind the little boy, the beauty who was about the same age as Chen Xuan immediately protected the little boy, and then said in a scolding tone: "You don't have to give water to a beggar. When he is thirsty, he will find a ditch to drink by himself."
Watery.
Sister, the water in the ditch is so dirty. The teacher said that drinking that kind of water will cause stomach ache. This big brother can’t drink from the ditch, so he should drink from my kettle. Niu Niu said and wanted to hand the kettle to Chen again.
Xuan.
But the beautiful woman scolded Niu Niu again, Grandma taught you to do good deeds, not to make you a good person. Our own troubles have not been solved. How can we have so much free time to help others? If you help a person with status, then
You can still get something in return. Help a beggar. What can he give you in return?
But grandma said you can't ask for anything in return for doing good deeds. Niu Niu was scolded by her sister and fell into confusion.
At this time the old lady said to Honglu, "Don't teach Niu Niu bad, Niu Niu has no problem at all in helping this young man, and don't treat him as a beggar, maybe something happened to him and he is like this."
Hearing what the old lady said, the beauty named Honglu curled her lips and stopped talking.
Niu Niu finally succeeded in passing the kettle to Chen Xuan's hand. Watching Chen Xuan drink water gurglingly, the expression on Niu Niu's face seemed to be happier than getting a toy.
His sister Honglu, on the other hand, frowned and put her fingers under her nose with a look of disgust, obviously thinking that Chen Xuan's body must be very smelly.
In fact, Chen Xuan always washed his body and clothes during the trip, so there was almost no odor.
Neither Niu Niu nor the old lady felt anything. Hong Lu just had a preconceived idea. When she saw Chen Xuan being dirty, she thought Chen Xuan was a stinky beggar.
When Chen Xuan returned the kettle to Niu Niu, Hong Lu snatched the kettle from Niu Niu's hand, then took out a paper towel and wiped the mouth of the kettle vigorously. Finally, she told Niu Niu that the water in Niu Niu Road was not drinkable. You can drink it later, sister.
of mineral water.
Sister, big brother is not dirty. Why do you dislike him so much? Big brother will be unhappy. Niu Niu finally became a little dissatisfied with his sister. He took out a piece of bread from his backpack angrily and handed it to Chen Xuan. Big brother,
Please eat some bread and leave my sister alone. She has always been like this.
Silly Niuniu, you, Honglu, were immediately so angry with your younger brother.
However, she glared at Chen Xuan and warned Chen Xuan with her eyes not to eat Niu Niu's bread. Chen Xuan became even more rude. After tearing open the bag, he divided the bread into two parts, eating half of it himself and giving the other half to Niu Niu.
The two of them ate happily.
Hong Lu secretly stamped her feet after seeing this. She was just thinking about how to drive Chen Xuan away when she noticed a playful look coming from the other side.
When I turned around, I saw that it was the young master who shouted before.
Honglu was secretly happy to be peeked at by the rich and handsome man, but she pretended to be shy on the outside, which made the young man's heart flutter even more.
At this moment, Honglu's grandma suddenly coughed violently and coughed up blood.
Grandma, how are you? Niu Newton looked worried.
The old lady coughed for a while and then said with difficulty, "I'm afraid I won't be able to wait until Baicaomen gives me the medicine for my illness."
What should I do? I'll help you get some medicine right now. Niu Niu said as he ran towards the mountain gate.
