The Legend of Swing Sword and Execution of Demons

Chapter 258

The power of money is indeed immeasurable.

Normally, Jiang Yichen would never think that shopkeeper Du could make up the few herbs that were missing in the medicine list in one day.

However, before dinner time, Jiang Yichen actually watched four or five helpers he had never seen before, each carrying a medicine basket half a person's height, walking quickly into the courtyard to unload the few missing herbs , nothing less, nothing bad.

In the evening, Jiang Yichen followed the two brothers Ahe and Awu who lived in the same room to make skewers.

While chatting, I found out that the banknotes that Xi Weiyu took out in the afternoon amounted to 3 taels.

What is the concept of 3 taels?

That means that after deducting the value cost of the medicine grassland and the labor cost of the medicine hall, the remaining silver is enough to supply four or two thousand catties of money to treat ordinary people for more than half a year without taking a penny.

Therefore, it is really easy for shopkeeper Du to raise the price a little and buy the missing medicinal materials from other places.

Ah He and Ah Wu are both around the same age, Ah He is a few years older than Ah Wu, and the two brothers are quite talkative, so they are the people Jiang Yichen is more familiar with in the medicine hall, except for shopkeeper Du and A Chai.

Before today, he had never heard the two brothers talk about Yuntian Temple. Presumably, shopkeeper Du was somewhat restrained by his subordinates, and this might not be a kind of protection for them.

From the few words the two said, it is not difficult to hear that they have been to Yuntian Temple, and more than once.

Jiang Yichen knew that as long as he guided the topic to Yuntian Temple a little, he didn't need to say the rest, and the two of them would be able to chatter endlessly and describe what they saw and heard in Yuntian Temple.

But Jiang Yichen didn't do that. After all, Shopkeeper Du treated him well, and he must not break his promise.

Silent all night.

In the early morning of the next day, Chenxi arrived at the scheduled pace.

The girl with two braids and a smile like a silver bell also followed the pace of the autumn morning light and appeared in the courtyard of Siliangqianjin Hall.

There are already many guys busy in the courtyard, but there are 12 people standing aside, which are out of tune with the busyness of others.

The reason why they are out of place is that 12 of the 11 people are standing still.

Among the 11 people, the one in the white robe is shopkeeper Du.

Among the other ten people, eight of them were dressed in gray robes, and two of them were dressed in khaki jackets, lined up in pairs.

The remaining one was pacing back and forth in front of the ten people, looking left and right, the pink and embroidered auspicious cloud robe on his body was shining brightly under the sunlight, dazzling and pleasing to the eye in the crowd.

Jiang Yichen naturally stood in the queue of ten people, waiting for Xi Weiyu's choice.

As for the 49 medicinal herbs that weighed more than a hundred catties, they had already been divided into five square medicine baskets of appropriate size, lying quietly beside them.

These medicine baskets seem to be made for long-distance transportation. If you want to ride a horse, you can tie these medicine baskets to the saddle without hindering the ride. If you want to walk, you can also carry them behind your back without affecting the action of crossing mountains and rivers. .

The medicine baskets were ready and ready to go, and six horses had already been prepared at the gate of the Siliangqianjin Hall, and Xi Weiyu would be able to set out on the road immediately after Xi Weiyu picked out five of the ten people to go with them.

Xi Weiyu was always very at ease with Shopkeeper Du's arrangement, and it was the same this time.

There are ten young and strong boys in the queue, which is twice as many as the medicine box, and it is enough for her to choose and use them.

But her vision has always been picky, and she didn't want to make mistakes during this trip, so she was very careful in her selection. After half a cup of tea, she finally thought of a pretty good way to test the depth of these people.

From the eyes of the other people in the courtyard, it was not known whether to laugh or show respect, because at this moment, Xi Weiyu was as solemn and solemn as a female general commanding troops on the battlefield.

After a while, Xi Weiyu stopped in front of the person on the far left of the queue.

Clap!

Everyone was shocked!

Xi Weiyu actually moved her hand, and she slapped the first guy on the left.

The first guy was named Ayi, and he was covering his left cheek, looking at Xi Weiyu in astonishment.

Seeing his serious face, he immediately shifted his gaze to Shopkeeper Du.

Seeing shopkeeper Du's stunned expression, Ah Yi's eyes became moist. He really didn't know what he did wrong?

He lowered his head in pain, and comforted himself, maybe it was because he was sleepy that Miss Xi found out, so she did this to help him refresh himself?

Shopkeeper Du finally regained his composure, and was about to ask "Why", when Xi Weiyu said first, "The response is too slow."

It is not enough for everyone to understand what these four words mean.

He heard two more crisp and louder crackling sounds than just now.

Previously, maybe everyone in the courtyard was busy with work, or they didn't hear the applause clearly, or they thought they heard it wrong.

But after the successive slaps sounded again, no one doubted their ears anymore, and their eyes quickly focused.

It turned out that Xi Weiyu took three steps to the right and slapped her twice.

The two behind were still caught off guard, and their cheeks suffered.

"Too slow." Xi Weiyu shook her head.

Everyone in the courtyard was silent like a cicada, no one said anything, and no one was busy with their own affairs, they all wanted to see what happened.

When she walked in front of the fourth person, many people already understood what Xi Weiyu was doing.

At least both Ah He and Shopkeeper Du have come to their senses, and Xi Weiyu is testing their reaction with a slap in the face.

Although it is somewhat unreasonable, it is still a way.Shopkeeper Du could only say this to himself in his heart.

It's just that it's hard for these children to be slapped in public. I'm afraid they have never been humiliated like this since they grew up?

But so what if he was humiliated?

Xi Weiyu is known as a little witch. Among the group of people he selected, except for Jiang Yichen, seven of the remaining nine have been to Yuntian Temple, and they have stayed there for at least ten and a half months. What is Miss Xi like? People, what kind of status and status, they will not be ignorant.

As long as the remaining two have a better look, seeing other brothers being slapped so peacefully, they should never be angry, let alone resist recklessly.

Children, be good, isn't it just a slap, and it's over. After that, the old man will bring you candy.Shopkeeper Du had no choice but to wink at the boys in his pharmacy constantly, telling them to be patient.

Snapped!

Another crisp sound startled shopkeeper Du. This time, it was as if his right cheek had also been drawn by Xi Weiyu, and it hurt to hear it.

The fourth person is Ahe.

Shopkeeper Du clearly watched Ah He take a step back, and finally avoided Xi Weiyu's palm, and he was really happy for Ah He, but the next moment, he saw Xi Weiyu take a step forward, followed by a backhand palm, and it still hit him. up!

The left cheek dodged, and the right cheek was hit!

"Somewhat clever, but more than clever, not enough reaction." Xi Weiyu shook his head and sighed.

After finishing speaking, he walked towards the fifth person.

After being slapped, Ah He was stunned for a moment. He thought he had guessed the trick of the little witch, but he didn't expect that Xi Weiyu was still so cunning.

That's right, she is a little witch, and she cannot be judged by common sense.

After hearing Xi Weiyu's sigh, Ah He wanted to cry even more, his face didn't hurt, his heart ached.

Then the fifth person imitated Ah He's method to hide his palm, but he took two steps back, avoiding Xi Weiyu's first palm far away.

Who knows the distance between the two bodies, Xi Weiyu was able to bully him with just one lunge, and the second palm still hit it steadily in the end.

Another snap!

The sixth man was still not spared.

And standing in seventh place was Jiang Yichen.

The six comrades in the medicine hall before this all failed to escape Xi Weiyu's clutches, could he escape?

Shopkeeper Du couldn't help shaking his head when he saw the first six people hit one by one, not because he was angry, but because he couldn't bear to watch.

But when Xi Weiyu stood in front of Jiang Yichen, shopkeeper Du's fish-tail-like head finally stopped and looked at Jiang Yichen intently.

The first six people have no skills in hands and feet, and they will get slapped every time they are slapped. It is not embarrassing to suffer in front of the Jianghu people.

But this kid is the killer Ye Xiao, can he stand this anger?

If he fought back, wouldn't he have exposed himself?

Just thinking about it like this, shopkeeper Du's heart was already in his throat.

And Xi Weiyu waved his palm out!
