279. The Truth II

"The prices of elixirs in the city have increased recently. You'd better get up early and go to Lao Qian's place, otherwise you won't be able to buy them even if you have money." Another burly man echoed.

"Hey, it's been dry here all year round, the spiritual energy is thin, and natural medicinal materials are expensive..."

Long Qingyue frowned and looked up at the table opposite. The old money they were talking about was... With a calm expression on his face, he walked towards the table and asked: "Brothers, where is Lao Qian's pharmacy?"

Where? I was passing by here and wanted to replenish some elixirs."

Several people raised their heads and glanced at Long Qingyue. Seeing that she had pretty features and clear eyes, they immediately felt good about her and said, "Go straight to the east. When you get to the east of the city, turn left in the small alley, and there is Lao Qian's.

It’s a drugstore. Although the medicinal materials there are very expensive, they are still very effective in treating injuries.”

Because this place is close to the desert and sparsely populated, the supply of medicinal materials is insufficient. You need to buy them from outside towns, which is naturally expensive.

Long Qingyue smiled and said: "Thank you so much, big brothers."

After saying that, he turned around and walked out of the inn. Qin Lieyan and others on the side saw this and quickly followed.

"Ah Yue, are you looking for someone?" Qin Lieyan asked.

Long Qingyue nodded, walked toward the east of the city as the man said, and then turned left into a small alley. There was a flag hanging on the door frame of a small wooden house with two big characters on it, 'pharmaceutical shop'.

Walking into the house, there was a man in coarse blue clothes working in front of the counter. The man was blind in his left eye, which was covered with a piece of cloth. His face was covered with knife marks, his temples were covered with white hair, and his chin was covered with beard.

Zhuizi, limping along, was sorting out the medicinal materials.

When the man saw someone coming in, he didn't even raise his head and said, "Today's elixirs are sold out. Please come back tomorrow."

"We are not here to buy medicine." Long Qingyue said calmly, with Ye Nian, Qin Lieyan and others following behind.

The man raised his head when he heard the words. When he saw Long Qingyue, he couldn't help but be startled. After a while, he returned to his indifferent expression, "Since you are not buying medicine, please go back. Our store is closing." He said.

Then he continued to lower his head and sort out the medicinal materials in his hands.

Long Qingyue stepped forward, a ray of light burst out from his narrow eyes, "How much is the money?"

The man paused and paused for a moment, "The girl recognized the wrong person."

Long Qingyue turned her wrist and immediately grabbed the man's left hand. Three fingers were exposed under the coarse blue clothes. The little finger and ring finger were completely cut off.

"This little finger of yours was left behind when you went on the first expedition with Long Xiaotian. At that time, in order to save him, you did not hesitate to block it with your hands, but the enemy cut off two fingers. Because you were loyal to protect the Lord, and

You have repeatedly accomplished extraordinary feats, so Long Xiaotian makes an exception by appointing you as a vanguard. He values ​​you very much and even regards you as a brother."

A faint voice sounded in the room, and suddenly there was silence in the air, so quiet that the only sound was the breathing of everyone.

For the first time, the man's eyes showed a look of astonishment.

"Money is expensive, do you think that hiding in this remote town can calm your conscience? Can you be worthy of the countless souls who died unjustly fifteen years ago? Can you be worthy of your former general Long Xiaotian?" Just a look.

, with one expression, Long Qingyue knew that this person must be wealthy.

The girl's voice was light, but every word was like a sharp knife stabbing into Qian Gui's heart instantly.

Qian Gui's face covered with knife scars showed a look of pain and guilt, and he sighed after a long time, "Are you his daughter?"
