Hearing the young man 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 been opened for a long time. Many people on the stone steps are anxiously milling around.
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 behind the mountain peak, he heard the young man starting to shout again: "Do you Baicaomen do business? If you don't open the door to sell medicine for so long, you will kill people!"
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, "You stinking beggar, what are you looking at! Haven't you seen Rich, Rich and Handsome?"
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 him: "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 held it up in front of him, signaling Chen Xuan to come over and drink water.
Seeing the child's kind nature, Chen Xuan immediately smiled and said, "Thank you, but I'm not thirsty."
"Brother, are you really not thirsty? It looks like 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 he will be polluted 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 really hoped that Chen Xuan would accept his kindness, Chen Xuan felt that it would not be good 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: "Niuniu is such a good boy. Grandma didn't teach you in vain."
"Grandma, I have always listened to you. I will definitely help people who need help." Niu Niu raised her 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: "Niu Niu, you don't have to give water to a beggar. He will find water by himself when he is thirsty."
Drink water from ditches."
"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. You should drink from my kettle." Niu Niu said and wanted to hand over the kettle again.
To Chen Xuan.
But the beauty reprimanded again: "Niu Niu, 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,
, 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 spoke: "Honglu, don't teach Niu Niu a bad boy. There is no problem at all for Niu Niu to help this young man. And don't treat him like a beggar. Maybe something happened to him to make him look 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, then took out a paper towel and wiped the mouth of the kettle vigorously, and finally told Niu Niu: "You can't drink the water in it, wait for you
Drink sister’s mineral water.”
"Sister, eldest 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.
"Brother, please eat some bread. Please leave my sister alone. She has always been like this."
"Silly Niuniu, you..." Honglu was immediately furious with her 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: "Well, I have this disease. I'm afraid I won't be able to wait until Baicaomen gives me the medicine."
"Then what should we do? I'll go get you some medicine right away!" Niu Niu said, running towards the mountain gate.
