Raiders of the Duke and Duchess

Chapter 488 The Killing of Muzi Pharmacy

The appearance of inconsistency makes people jealous.

The light in the room is dim, there are no windows, and the room is full of dark cabinets. The only light source is this half-open wooden door. The shopkeeper looks sideways, and when he looks at people quietly with his big bean eyes, he has a half-expression. No, there is a pervasive sense of death.

Ji Wuyan let him scrutinize him, with a generous look, it really seemed like someone at home had caught a cold and came to buy medicine, and even urged, "Is there any? Qianghuo."

I really can't see the depth.

The shopkeeper slowly retracted his gaze, put down the basket on his wrist, and picked the vegetable leaves in the basket. After they were neatly arranged, he said in a low voice, "Yes... I'll look for it."

The old shopkeeper who had warmly greeted Ji Wuyan just now, seemed to have changed his core at this moment, silent, dull, and a little slow, and his speech speed was much slower after he finished speaking.He turned around and pulled out several drawers, looked at them, and put them back one by one, with his back to the outside and he didn't know what he was doing.

Ji Wuyan seemed to be getting impatient with the wait. He stepped across the threshold, but didn't go any further. He just shook the hand that had been blocking the curtain, and asked softly, "Is there any? I just looked for it." Several pharmacies said they didn't have any...but the doctor said, this is an ordinary medicinal material, how could even the ordinary medicinal material be out of stock in Yanjing City?"

"Hmm..." The old shopkeeper with his back turned to the outside was still looking for one drawer after another, and while searching, he dealt with it vaguely, "It's true, I, the old man, don't quite understand..."

He was still wearing the coir raincoat, looking left and right, the coir coir raincoat was sweeping back and forth on the counter, wetting the entire table, but he didn't seem to notice it, he just lowered his body even more and reached for the drawer below, but it still seemed fruitless. Without looking back, he muttered, "Come in, don't block the light outside, the room is too dark... I'm old, I can't see it."

Ji Wuyan put her hands behind her back, didn't move, just asked him, "Like you have been working in this pharmacy for all these years, shouldn't you be able to get the medicinal materials in which compartment with your eyes closed?"

The words are gentle and not aggressive at all, like a child who is too straightforward because he is really ignorant of the world and doesn't know what to say and what not to say.

The other party's movements slightly slowed down, and he looked sideways slowly, his eyes were dull, but not cloudy like the old people's, the whites of his eyes were white, the pupils were small, and he looked at you with a fixed look, which became more and more permeable.

He stared at Ji Wuyan for a while, then turned around again, and said slowly, "I'm getting old... I don't have a good memory, and my eyesight is not good. I don't usually buy this medicine, although it is common, But it’s not often used…”

Before he could finish speaking, he was startled for a moment, his figure just stood there so stiff.

Ji Wuyan lowered his head and smiled, and said slowly, "I came early just now. I saw that you had gone out and concealed yourself before you returned. I thought that it would be impolite to push the door in hastily. So I found a teahouse nearby. I sat down and chatted with the old lady for a while, and naturally mentioned you in the chat, she said that you have been a barefoot doctor for most of your life, not to mention other things, the headaches and brain fever problems of the neighbors are nothing to worry about... ..."

The old man's big pupils tightened suddenly.

However, Ji Wuyan didn't seem to feel the murderous intent and danger that seemed to be absent. She still tilted her head with her hands behind her back and smiled softly, pretending to be relaxed, with a bit of smugness, "I said that my family has caught a cold. , so I want to buy some Notopterygium...then why didn't you tell me that this medicine is not suitable for the disease?"

"I'm getting old...I'm hard of hearing." The old man slowly tapped his long-slumped back, but he was short in stature, and his arms seemed to be shorter, so the tap only reached the side of his waist.He has no temper, and he didn't get angry when Ji Wuyan targeted him like this, and he didn't drive her out as a troublemaker. He just smiled and walked out from behind the counter, bending down to reach the vegetable basket on the ground, while bending, while He said slowly, "You little girl, you are young, and you are very wary... Is it because I am worried that I, the shopkeeper of the pharmacy, can't even cure the cold? It's just... I am old, my ears are not good, so I didn't pay attention Listen to what you say..."

"Come in, don't stand at the door...Come in and have a sip of tea, and I'll give you a prescription after I put this vegetable basket away..."

"Worry." Ji Wuyan nodded lightly, "The elders in the family are sick, and the younger generation is naturally anxious. If it weren't for that... there is no need to rush over at this juncture knowing that the road is difficult." She seemed to say that the road is difficult in rainy days Okay, but it seems that it is not just saying that it is difficult to walk in this rainy day.

The shopkeeper thought for a while, "That's right... Then, help me put this basket in the backyard, go out the back door, turn left, enter the room along the corridor, just put it at the door, and I'll grab the medicine for you. "

Ji Wuyan nodded, finally let go of the hands behind her back, walked over to pick up the vegetable basket on the ground and walked towards the back door.

The shopkeeper walked towards the counter while knocking on the back of his waist, ignored the dripping tabletop, took a pen casually, looked at the tabletop, and saw that the few sheets of rice paper that were scribbled on the tabletop were all wet by the rain, so he stretched out his hand to pull it. The side drawer...

The fingertips could barely reach the handle of the drawer, Ji Wuyan had already opened the back door, and stepped forward... the knife light had arrived.

In the dark world, heavy rain was pouring, and the murderous aura was coming towards the face with the rain. Ji Wuyan had been prepared for a long time, and she turned sideways, lifted the vegetable basket in one hand, and flipped it with the other hand. To meet the opponent, three rounds have passed in an instant.

The sound of wind and rain, the sound of swords clashing, but a more subtle sound suddenly came through the air. In a flash from the corner of the eye, the vegetable basket in his hand was thrown towards that side. The long arrow hit the vegetable basket, and the sky was filled with powder mist. Ji Wuyan thought secretly With a bad sound, he turned around holding his breath in an instant and was about to avoid exiting the backyard, but unexpectedly, a wolf hair pen was handed out from the fingertip of the old man behind him...

The three people encircled and suppressed, and Li Yuqi really spent all his money.

Ji Wuyan secretly shook her head with leisure, thinking that Li Yuqi really thinks highly of her, I'm afraid she will see some blood today... She ignored the younger generation who was open-minded, she just turned slightly to avoid the vital point, and hit the front of the person in front of her with her breath held and go.

At the critical moment, the half-open wooden door was suddenly knocked open by gravity and shattered. Among the pieces of wood flying all over the room, a ray of silver light flashed and sank into the back of the old man's neck.

Entering from the back of the neck and exiting from the front of the neck, this disguised rickety back straightened instantly, maintaining the posture of handing out the Langhao pen, with his bean-sized pupils wide open, he fell to the ground with a strange "cluck" sound in his throat.

A bright red coral bead bounced all the way and landed beside him, stained with blood.
