Chapter 184

"Hey, I've already asked you if you must stay in the hotel, but you said you must. Isn't that frightening?"

The owner of the Yuanjiang Inn, shaking his bald forehead, saw that after Master Zheng drank the water, he seemed to be in shock, so he said calmly.

"Boss, you didn't tell me that there are them behind the door..." Although Master Zheng is also from Xiangxi, he grew up in the city and has never seen a corpse before. I saw the legendary exorcist on the road, and now I live with the master who exorcised the exorcist by mistake. How can I not feel nervous?
"Shh, keep your voice down, don't provoke them."

The owner of Yuanjiang Inn pulled Master Zheng, then glanced at Su Lin, and said:
"Talk to the side!"

Of course, Master Zheng wished to stay as far away from those "people" standing behind the door as possible. Although "they" were standing quietly behind the door now, who knew if they would suddenly get out of control and rush up and pinch him?

Just now, he didn't run away right away, because he woke up early in the morning, his feet were so frightened by the scene in front of him that his feet were weak. Now that his mind has recovered, of course he wished to stay away from these things, so he followed the innkeeper to the big house. As soon as I walked, I came to the counter where they checked in yesterday.

It was only now that Su Lin realized that the stench she and Master Zheng smelled last night was not without reason, it was the stench of corpses.

However, the innkeeper was right, he and Master Zheng insisted on living in this inn, and for one night, it was basically safe, nothing unusual had disturbed him, except for the humming in the middle of the night The sound of incantations.

However, in retrospect, the sound of the incantation should be the sound of the curse cast by the corpse master to appease the group of corpses.

"Hey, I told you earlier, I asked you if you could live, but you insisted on staying." The innkeeper expressed his feelings again.

"I've lived here once before, and you don't have that thing here."

Master Zheng argued.

"How long ago did you live here?"

asked the innkeeper.

"More than ten years ago, I forgot even ten years ago."

"It's been so long, let me tell you, five years ago my son said he was going to close this inn and go to work in the city because of the lackluster business.

I was reluctant to part with this property passed down from my ancestors, and at that time, the work of exorcising corpses was revived, so I changed this inn into an inn for exorcising corpses.

The locals know it, they never live here.Didn't I ask you guys last night?You still have to live.

In fact, there is nothing to be frightened about. People die and return to their hometowns, and leaves fall back to their roots. Who would not want to return to their hometown after death. "

The owner of the Yuanjiang inn spoke very calmly, but Master Zheng almost lost his temper. If he had known that the inn had been changed into a corpse inn, he would never live here. If he had known, he would have slept in the car for one night. Yes, early in the morning sent a shock for nothing.

"Okay, Master Zheng, last night was also an expedient measure, we got through it all, so don't worry about it anymore.

If nothing else, go back early! "

Su Lin persuaded.

It's pointless to dwell on this matter any longer.

It's clear that Master Zheng is a messy person. When Su Lin said this, he no longer argued and nodded in agreement.

However, before he went out, when he passed the two gates, he was still a little trembling, because he knew that exorcising corpses was done at night, and now in broad daylight, the masters who expelled corpses were resting. They all stood obediently behind the two gates.

Although they were silent and lifeless, they were more terrifying than anything else.

Master Zheng went out of the gate, ran to the taxi without looking back, drove the car, and left Yuanjiang town as if fleeing.

Master Zheng left in a hurry and forgot to teach Su Lin how to go to the town to find the herb pickers who led the way.And Su Lin had just settled the bill at the inn, and she didn't want to go back to that weird inn and spend the night with a group of corpses.

However, finding a guide would not be a problem for Su Lin. She walked in the direction where the aura radiated, and within 500 meters, after turning a few alleys, a small street where medicinal materials were traded appeared in front of her eyes.

All medicinal materials have natural aura on them, but such aura is so thin that it is almost non-existent, only Su Lin can feel it.

Moreover, after these medicinal materials were gathered together, the amount of aura increased greatly, allowing Su Lin to feel them more clearly.

However, this kind of aura is no longer helpful to Su Lin, it just makes her feel very comfortable while walking.

For medicinal materials, Su Lin now has a natural intimacy, so she walked around and looked around, thinking that she might be able to find a leak here.

The medicinal materials street here is different from the medicinal materials street in Julin Township under Mount Emei.

Due to the large number of merchants from all over the country, the Medicinal Materials Street in Julin Town looks very majestic and has a large turnover.

And the medicinal material street here is only a place for villagers or herbal pickers to trade, and only some professional medicinal material dealers come to purchase, so it seems very deserted.

Su Lin's dress and temperament are obviously different from those of the people in this town. However, although this place is remote, there are curious tourists and donkey friends who come here from time to time, so everyone did not pay extra attention to Su Lin.

"My fellow, how do you sell this medicine?"

Su Lin saw a silent middle-aged man, wearing an off-white T-shirt and a pair of black homespun trousers with a cloth belt. He was barefoot. Plant tubers with green leaves.

Su Lin could tell at a glance that it was xuelihong, a kind of medicinal material that can treat hidden gynecological diseases, and it can only be found on the mountain at an altitude of 3000 meters.

Seeing that the green leaves on this medicinal material are still not wilted, it means that the herbal picker may have picked it from the mountain overnight and came here to trade.

However, it is possible that the herbal collector lived in the stockade on the mountain, and he came down from the stockade early in the morning. Thinking about the experience last night, Su Lin didn't quite believe that someone would dare to go up the mountain to collect herbs in the middle of the night, and then Come down to sell.

"This, 20 yuan."

When Su Lin asked for the price, the numb face of the middle-aged man became more vivid, and he quoted a price.

"All 20 bucks?"

Su Lin asked in surprise, she didn't expect it to be so cheap.

If this medicinal material is in her hands, it can at least cure those gynecological diseases that require major surgery, and such surgery, in the hands of ordinary surgeons, would cost tens of thousands of dollars in treatment fees.

Moreover, the patient has to endure the pain of being stabbed.

If the medicine prescribed by Su Lin is taken, the patient will not only be cured within three months, but also will not have to suffer from surgery.

If the medicine is sold for 5 yuan, it is a breeze. I did not expect this fellow to sell such a sufficient amount of medicinal materials for only 20 yuan.

Su Lin couldn't help lamenting that the pharmaceutical industry is really a huge profiteering industry.

Such a turnaround and a change of hands can generate hundreds of times and thousands of times of profits.

It's no wonder that a while ago, that Glaxo guy would rush to Huaxia to buy off the regulatory officials in the pharmaceutical industry and the doctors in large and small hospitals...

"Uh, by the way, fellow, did you pick these medicinal materials yourself?" "Yes, you picked them early in the morning. Look, the leaves are still green."

The man's Mandarin is not very good, it is a bit difficult, but he can communicate.

"Well, fellow, I'm going to a place in the mountains, can you take me there?"

After Su Lin confirmed that the man took the medicine herself, she wanted him to lead the way.Because, to be able to gather this kind of herbal medicine, it must be on a mountain at an altitude of 3000 meters, and he went to pick it early in the morning. It is less than ten o'clock now, and he can appear in the town to sell medicine, which shows that this person has extraordinary feet.

However, it's not worth being particularly surprised. People who have lived in the mountains for many years have different physique and foot strength from those in the city.

This man must be used to running on mountain roads, that's why he was able to gather medicine so quickly and then go down the mountain to sell it.

"This place? The road inside is not easy to walk, and our herb pickers don't like to go there. If you must go, give me more money."

The middle-aged man didn't immediately reject Su Lin. From his point of view, it doesn't matter which mountain you enter, but some are easier to walk and some are more difficult.

"No problem, how about I give you 1000 yuan with these medicinal materials?"

Su Lin couldn't bear it, because in this era when white-collar workers can spend thousands of yuan for a night in a bar, this man worked hard all night, but he only got a cheap salary, which is really unreasonable.

"Okay, shall we go now?"

The man also simply put away the basket on the ground and carried it directly on his shoulders.

"Okay, I need to bring some food, do you know where to buy it?"

Seeing that he agreed, Su Lin felt relieved.

It's better for someone to lead the way than for her to fumble alone.

"Ahead, there's a scone seller. If you're going for a few days, you should bring some more."

There was a big business deal, and the man talked a little more:
"My name is Panhu, and I live in a village on the mountain."

"I'm a doctor, and I want to go up the mountain to find a herb."

Su Lin also briefly introduced herself. Since she hired him as a guide, she must let him know what she is going to do.

When they arrived at the pancake place that Panhu mentioned, Su Lin couldn't help laughing. It turned out that the scones were made by local Miao people. They were erected on the street with three stones, and then baked directly on a pan. The taste is estimated to be It won't be any better, because when Su Lin watched them cook, she just sprinkled salt into the flour...

After adding a little oil and frying on both sides, the noodle cakes exude the natural wheat flavor of the food.

In fact, Su Lin still has compressed biscuits in her backpack, as well as some high-energy chocolate and other spare supplies.

However, thinking that he doesn't need to eat too much, Panhu always has to eat, right?This time I went to the mountains, I don't know how long it will take to find the silver grass, so Su Lin still bought a lot of scones and put them in Panhu's back basket.

Seeing that there was food to eat, and other things that needed to be carried, Su Lin had a lot in her backpack, so the two of them went straight to the big green mountain indicated on Su Lin's map.
