Lin Mo carefully put the files on the table and the copied copies into the file bag, carefully signed his name, and finally put them into the password box. He turned around, looked at the man hesitating beside him, and asked.
He had already noticed that something was wrong, and the other party had looked at him with his peripheral vision no less than three times.
"You don't have to go on patrol in the afternoon, right, Brother Lin?" Xue Gui put his hands on the wooden table and said with a smile on his face.
"The commander-in-chief should think that I am a newcomer and have not arranged for me to conduct inspections yet." Lin Mo replied.
"In the past few days, there is a fleet called Blue Split Fish in Yuzhou that will stop at the third warehouse at Taihuai Ferry. The third warehouse is inspected. It is my turn recently."
Lin Mo was silent and looked at the man in front of him whose hair was a little messy.
"you mean?"
"Lanshan Martial Arts School is recruiting disciples these days, and my daughter has just reached the age." Xue Gui stretched out his hand and scratched his head.
Lanshan Martial Arts School also has a master in charge. The owner of the school, Lan Yu, is famous for teaching his disciples. According to statistics, two of his disciples have also reached the realm of masters, and their reputation is very good in Huaiping.
"Do you want me to cover for you?" Lin Mo asked.
"." Xue Gui nodded sheepishly.
"Don't worry, you just need to go shopping and sign. I will come back to check before signing." He added.
"Yeah, sure." Lin Mo nodded.
Among them, the main purpose of the inspection is to see if there are any prohibited items. Regardless of whether there are any prohibited items, a signature is required so that the responsible person can be found if something goes wrong.
In other words, as long as Lin Mo didn't sign it, he wouldn't be able to be found even if something happened.
Xue Gui was obviously very happy and repeatedly said that he must come to him if anything happened in the future.
Then he took out the location map of the warehouse at Taihuai Ferry, described the location to Lin Mo, and briefly described his responsibilities.
'It seems that working in this Si Ma Yamen, the pay is really good.'
After Lin Mo packed up his things and looked at Xue Gui's leaving figure, he couldn't help but murmured.
As far as he knew, Lanshan Martial Arts School, as a long-established martial arts school, was no better than Feiheng Martial Arts School, and its fees were even more terrifying.
Xue Gui's family background is average.
After all, Huaiping is no better than Ningyang. A martial artist in the Qi and Blood realm is not much of a figure.
Being able to send your children there to lay the foundation, the hard work, cannot be summed up in one word.
He shook his head, made sure everything was packed, signed out, and left.
Compared with Ningyang, the biggest difference between Huaiping and Ningyang is that it is resource intensive.
Whether it is martial arts resources or life resources, there are several levels of difference between the two.
Although there are still poor people here, life is miserable no matter how miserable they are. There is depression and irritability on their faces, but there is no anxiety or uneasiness.
No matter whether it is the rise of the Yangtide, the danger of the beast tide, or the catastrophe from the sky, or the chaos of war, it seems that it cannot affect the ordinary people here.
Everything lives so peacefully.
A developed economy has led to the prosperity of martial arts, and there are countless martial artists.
There are martial arts schools and gangs almost everywhere, and there are even martial arts training classes for young children.
Business is pretty good.
With the prosperity of martial arts, there are also many pharmacies.
The neighborhood that Lin Mo walked to is a special pharmacy street, and the whole street is filled with pharmacies.
Qingdanfang is located here.
When Lin Mo walked into the pharmacy, as a time-honored drugstore, there were already many people in the pharmacy.
A familiar medicinal fragrance hit his nostrils, making him feel as if he was in Xu's Pharmacy.
And just when he was feeling a little emotional, a maid came to greet him because he was wearing official uniform.
The woman was about sixteen or seventeen years old, not too old. She was dressed very quietly, with curved eyebrows and eyes like autumn water. She was smiling before she spoke, and she was very approachable.
"My lord, please call me Xiaoju. Is there anything I can help you with?" the maid approached, bowed respectfully, and whispered softly.
"I need to purchase some elixirs and medicinal books." Lin Mo said frankly without wasting time.
Upon hearing this, the maid named Xiaoju's eyes suddenly lit up, and she led Lin Mo towards the private room.
This is specially prepared for VIPs to protect the privacy of guests. Generally speaking, only regular patrons or strong warriors can enjoy it.
Although Lin Mo didn't show any strength, he was treated like this just because of his clothes.
"I wonder what kind of elixir you want, sir? The above are all the ones we still have in stock."
When she arrived at the private room, maid Xiaoju immediately closed the door, took out a scroll from behind, placed it in front of Lin Mo, and chuckled.
Lin Mo nodded and unfolded the scroll.
On it were various samples of elixir powders traced by a master painter, with a line of small words next to them summarizing the efficacy and price.
He is familiar with Zhuanggu Powder, Tiger Bone Wine, Xueling Powder, Fuxu Yishang Decoction, and so on.
There were also some elixir powders that Lin Mo didn't recognize at all. After looking at the effects, even he couldn't help but be surprised by some of them.
"I need pills that can be used to practice in the qi and blood realm and speed up the conversion efficiency of mind energy." Lin Mo saw that there were too many medicines on the scroll, so he directly stated his needs.
The maid smiled sweetly, without any fluctuation on her face. She just nodded and turned the scroll to the other side.
"For accelerating the cultivation of life-saving qi and blood realm, our store has three types of elixir powders:
One is the Blood Mill Pill, and the royal medicine is the Quenching Blood Orchid. For an ordinary martial artist, one pill can equal a month's worth of work;
The second one is Tongxue Powder, the royal medicine is Blood Vine Grass, for an ordinary martial artist, one dose can last half a month;
Finally, there is this blood oil. Well, the royal medicine is blood stone, and a bottle of blood oil can offset at least three days of work."
Lin Mo didn't say anything immediately, but just followed his words and observed the content introduction on the scroll.
Of these three types of drugs, the first one is naturally the most effective, and the price is really expensive, so expensive that even he was a little shocked.
It requires a full fifty thousand taels of gold.
Even the cheapest blood oil costs a thousand taels of gold per bottle.
He remained calm and turned over the front page.
I found that elixirs for the physical realm, such as bone-strengthening powder and essential oil for toning muscles, were much cheaper than when they were in Ningyang. But once they reached the life-establishing realm, like elixirs for accelerating cultivation, the prices skyrocketed.
However, things like barrier-breaking Xue Ling Powder or Fuxu Yishang Decoction are cheaper.
‘Is it because something is rare, or is it because someone is deliberately monopolizing it?’ While he was delighted, he couldn’t help but have this thought.
After all, when Lin Yu was in Ningyang, he didn't see any pills that could speed up his cultivation.
But now that we know the drug exists, it's easier to handle.
"Are there any relevant medicinal books here?" Lin Mo said bluntly.
"Medicine book? Is the officer a pharmacist?" The maid was slightly surprised. She didn't expect a person of Lin Mo's stature to be a pharmacist.
But after all, professional ethics exists, and a smile once again appeared on my face,
"There are medicine books, but I would like to advise the official. Although the elixir prescriptions can be guaranteed to be correct, you should know that different pharmacists have their own unique auxiliary secrets to increase the success rate. These unique experiences are listed in the medicine books.
There is no record,
Many times when you try it yourself, you may end up losing more than you gain.”
"Thank you, it sounds quite challenging. Please help me get one, and also help me prepare some medicinal materials for the Blood Mill Pill." Lin Mo said with a smile.
The difficulty of the method has long been anticipated, but as long as the materials and recipes are available, just explore slowly.
"That's good." The maid was startled, but said nothing more. She sighed slightly in her heart and turned to leave.
The elixirs are expensive, and since they can't afford them, there are naturally many people who want to make them myself.
And if it could succeed so easily, the price wouldn't still be so high.
Later, Lin Mo used his small assets to buy a sample pill and many rare medicinal books.
I spent nearly 100,000 taels of gold in this Qingdanfang all at once, and finally realized that I didn't have much money, so I sighed and left with the maid's more cordial "official" voice.
Lin Mo was in a very good mood after walking out of Danfang.
In addition to finding the elixir to speed up cultivation, more importantly, if it really works, I probably won’t have to worry about money in the future. The happiest thing in the world is this.
What's more important is that those rare medicinal books actually contain a lot of pharmacological knowledge that has only been summarized in recent years.
This has never been seen in Xu's Medicine Classic.
All of a sudden, it gave Lin Mo a lot of inspiration and ideas, and even some problems that had been difficult to solve in the past suddenly became clear.
For example, the method that he had envisioned long ago to break through the confinement of his own strong defense and re-fortify his body was suddenly more perfect.
However, just as Lin Mo suppressed the excitement in his heart and walked towards his residence, his few eyebrows suddenly wrinkled slightly.
Looking out of the corner of his eye, at Qingdanfang behind him and two unknown shops next to him, three or four figures followed quietly.
They behave normally, both men and women, and their clothes are no different from ordinary people walking on the street.
It was a busy time on the street, with many pedestrians coming and going.
What you hear is the hawking of vendors, and what you see is the weaving of pedestrians.
These people blended into the crowd like water dripping into the sea, and ordinary people would not notice anything unusual at all.
It's just that Lin Mo is different.
After moving to Si Ma Fang, he almost never let go of his vigilance.
In his perception, these people actually glanced at him nearly ten times in just a few breaths.
Forget about that old woman, what does it mean for the other big men to keep looking at him?
There is obviously a ghost!
Lin Mo showed no trace, slowly increased his speed, blended into the crowd, stopped and walked, and turned several turns.
At this time, when we walked out of Pharmacy Street and entered the main road, there were already many cars and horses.
In the middle of the road, cars and horses flowed, and strange animals roamed freely, just like the waves rushing in the sea.
And he discovered that the people behind him were still following!
The whereabouts are naturally more conspicuous at this time.
'Is this Yunying's back-up plan?'
Lin Mo's eyes moved slightly, his face grew colder, and he quietly deviated from the main road again and walked towards a nearby remote neighborhood.
This block is called Tuanjie New District. It is hidden in the adjacent Dafang. It is considered a residential area. However, most of them are old-fashioned houses, which are not very beautiful to look at and are a bit outdated. There are many streets and alleys.
The imperial court had long planned to renovate the building, but due to the difficulty in negotiating the demolition fee, it was shelved.
If you are not sensitive to the direction, or if outsiders come here, you will easily get lost.
The four people who were originally separated and didn't know each other finally came together.
The woman is about forty years old. She is wearing a blue dress. She has a plump figure and looks pretty good. She looks a bit like a mature lady.
The other three men, both young and old, were dressed in very ordinary clothes, nothing out of the ordinary, just like ordinary people.
Just look closely and you can tell from their bulging cuffs and thick knuckles that these people are not simple people.
At this time, the four people frowned at each other, looking a little unwilling.
"Where is the person? Why did he disappear suddenly?"
The woman in blue frowned and asked in a low voice.
They followed them all the way, but after turning a few corners, they disappeared directly. She was shocked and angry, but also felt a little uneasy.
"I don't know!" A boy of sixteen or seventeen years old shook his head.
"Could it be that he got lost? After all, as far as we know, this person is from out of town."
He made a conjecture.
"." The other people were speechless and didn't know how to answer the question.
"I suggest retreating first. After all, our purpose is just to observe its trajectory. At this time, the target is out of sight. If we continue to pursue it, we may expose ourselves!" The woman in blue looked around uneasily and whispered.
"Second the motion" Someone agrees.
"Seconded."
"I agree too." It was the young man who spoke last, hesitating and hesitating, obviously unwilling to give in. He had no choice but to say this because of the pressure from everyone.
"I don't agree." Suddenly, a voice came from above.
The young man was startled and immediately raised his head in joy.
All I saw was a shadow hanging down.
A burly man with a bald head, wearing a crimson coat (red), stood on the wall, expressionlessly looking down at the four people with his hands behind his hands.
His stature is as tall as a mountain, giving people tremendous pressure.
The young man's expression suddenly froze.
If this person is not the target they are pursuing so hard, then who is he?
"run!"
The woman in blue suddenly screamed in surprise, and the next moment, she touched her arms with both hands, and suddenly the darts were scattered in the sky, and she jumped out.
The others did the same, throwing out secret tricks such as lime powder, iron caltrops, poisonous silver needles, etc.
Then they didn't dare to stay at all, so they ran away.
They are not stupid. According to intelligence, this person is extremely dangerous and has a cruel and violent personality. He is not something they can handle.
In the blink of an eye, the four of them escaped several feet away.
They are all obviously good at hiding, practicing leg skills, and are excellent at escaping!
When Lin Mo saw this, he did not move. Instead, he grinned, revealing his white teeth, and smiled, but the coldness in his eyes became even worse.
A mocking look on his face.
'One, two, three,...down.'
He silently counted three numbers in his mind.
Bang bang bang bang.
The four people who were originally looking happy and had already run ten meters away fell down one after another, their faces full of horror.
For a moment, I felt as if the blood all over my body was frozen. No matter whether it was energy, blood or mind, I couldn't use it. At the same time, a severe feeling of nausea and vomiting surged up in my heart, making my head feel dizzy.
Lin Mo held a man in one hand and finally walked slowly towards the woman.
This alley is very remote, and no one will disturb you for a while.
"Don't come here!"
The woman in blue who fell to the ground was coughing violently. Looking at Lin Mo who was slowly approaching, she didn't know she had been poisoned.
At the same time, I was frightened and even more timid.
This is Huaiping, and there is a huge flow of people. How dare he poison him wantonly? Isn't he afraid that the medicine will injure a large number of people!
Or does it mean that he doesn’t care about human life at all?
For a moment, my body trembled, as if falling into an ice cellar.
Under his cold gaze, I felt even more helpless as if I had been stripped naked.
"Can the four of you explain why you are following Lin?"
Lin Mo raised the man in his hand, looked down at the woman who collapsed on the ground, and said softly, with an indifferent expression.
