Seeing Ji Beichen's dazed look, Old Man Baihu revealed a smile on his stoic face. He put his left hand behind his back and combed the gray beard on his chin with his right hand. He said with a smile: "I am the younger brother of old man Shi Wuji. My name is Bai Shi." .”
"Hello, Senior Bai!" When Ji Beichen heard that he was Senior Shi Wuji's junior brother, he stepped forward and saluted.
When Bai Shi saw Ji Beichen being so polite, he couldn't help laughing and said: "No gifts, no gifts. I'm different from that old stubborn man. You don't have to be so polite in front of me. Just like that girl Ling'er, just call me Grandpa Shi!"
Ji Beichen nodded respectfully and agreed. Since Senior Bai Shi said so, he stopped being polite and followed Senior Bai to the front hall of the medicine shop.
In the early morning, Xuanji Pharmacy has opened for business. Shopkeeper Zhao is sitting in the front hall for consultation.
Zhao Ling'er was also busy in front of the medicine cabinet, taking prescriptions, reviewing prescriptions, and grabbing medicines. From time to time, she would also give instructions to the little boy at the medicine shop next to her. Her serious look was very different from yesterday.
Zhao Ling'er looked at the pharmacy in her hand and reminded the little boy: "This is a new prescription. Pay attention to whether the medicinal taste is heavy!"
"Okay, okay!" The boy nodded in agreement and looked at it carefully.
Zhao Ling'er turned her head and said sternly to the new guy: "Don't mix the ingredients of each medicine together. You are breaking the rules by taking the medicine like this! If you take it by mistake, you will not be able to sort it. Isn't this a trivial matter that matters to people's lives?" , when taking medicine in the future, there should be a gap between each medicine!"
Ji Beichen looked at Zhao Ling'er, who was smart and capable in front of the medicine cabinet, and was dumbfounded. Is this the same little girl who acted coquettishly with him yesterday?
After Zhao Ling'er finished what she was doing, she looked up and met Ji Beichen's eyes. She quickly lifted up her skirt, trotted up to Ji Beichen, and sweetly shouted: "Brother Ji!"
"Oh, Ling'er has a brother and can hardly see an old man like me. It's so sad!" Bai Shi, who was standing aside, felt a little disgusted when he saw Zhao Ling'er's joyful appearance. In the past, this kind of treatment was exclusive to him.
"Grandpa Shi, how could Ling'er forget you! The hot breakfast at Chenji Restaurant is ready for you. Grandpa, go to the dining room to enjoy it!"
Zhao Ling'er just got excited and called Ji Beichen first. Seeing Bai Shi's mood, she quickly took Bai Shi's arm and walked towards the dining room. Before leaving, she didn't forget to stick out her tongue at Ji Beichen.
Shopkeeper Zhao heard the commotion here and came over, asking thoughtfully about Ji Beichen's current situation: "How was Taoist Master Ji's rest last night?"
Ji Beichen knew that Shopkeeper Zhao really cared about him, and felt very grateful. He smiled and said, "Very good, thank you Shopkeeper Zhao for thinking about me."
Shopkeeper Zhao saw that Ji Beichen's face was rosy and not as tired as yesterday, so he knew that he should have had a good rest at night.
He took two steps forward, stretched out his arm, patted Ji Beichen's shoulder, and said, "Since Ling'er recognizes you as my brother, Taoist Master Ji, please call me Uncle Zhao!"
Ji Beichen saw that the Zhao family were all upright and kind people, so he no longer hesitated and replied calmly: "Then Uncle Zhao, please call me Ji Chen!"
It was a helpless move for him to conceal his true identity yesterday. After all, it was inconvenient to reveal his current identity, so it was better to keep a low profile.
The two chatted for a few words in the front hall and then went about their own business. Ji Beichen set up a divination stall in front of the medicine shop as usual and began his mortal life after entering the world.
——
That day, Yan Yueli returned to the Yanyue Sect angrily. Not long after, he sent his men to Cangzhou City to inquire about Ji Beichen's whereabouts. The news he brought back was "safe, divination, okay..."
When Yan Yueli heard that Ji Beichen was in good health and had merged into the mortal world, her heart suddenly sank and she began to talk duplicity: "Not bad! Just right, I am happy to be pure!"
At this time, Shen Qingxi happened to return to the clan from Lihun Valley. As soon as she stepped into the meeting hall, she heard Yan Yueli losing her temper for Ji Beichen. She couldn't help biting her lower lip secretly to prevent herself from laughing out loud and following her. Wang Yuanting behind him could only sigh secretly in his heart.
He already knew about Yan Yueli's teaching of martial arts to Ji Beichen. Although he was shocked, the fait accompli could not be changed, so he could only hide the matter from the sect leader for the time being.
He slapped the Xuan Ming Fan in his hand and frowned in confusion: "That shouldn't be the case. With Ji Beichen's temperament, if he knew that there was magic power running through his body, he would definitely ask the palace master for an explanation. How could this happen? So peaceful?"
Yan Yueli's face darkened slightly, and Shen Qingxi mouthed to Wang Yuanting: He doesn't know.
"This..." Wang Yuanting opened his mouth and fell silent for a moment.
Shen Qingxi ignored Wang Yuanting and used her spiritual consciousness to send a message to Yan Yueli: "Does the Palace Master want him to know? If Ji Beichen knew the truth, he would definitely be even more desperate... But this matter cannot be kept secret for long, he will know sooner or later. …”
As she said that, she pursed her lips and showed some sympathy, but her eyes became firm again for a moment, and she continued to communicate with Yan Yueli using her spiritual consciousness: "If the Palace Master is soft-hearted, there is no need to go there in person, this kind of selfless and merciless thing , Senior brother is the best at this!"
"Junior sister Qingxi, don't talk nonsense. When did I become so cold-hearted to you?" Wang Yuanting finally couldn't help it. Shen Qingxi's cultivation is nothing more than exorcism. He is a cultivator at the Golden Core stage. If he wants to hear her It is not difficult to transmit sound from the divine consciousness.
Shen Qingxi was so surprised that she immediately jumped to her feet and said angrily: "You...how can you hear it?"
Wang Yuanting just shrugged his shoulders. They were disciples of the Demon Sect and naturally knew some cunning tricks. It was just that she was too naive.
As the eldest brother of the Yan Yue Sect, except for the sect leader and the "Four Elders", all the disciples of the sect obey his orders. Even Yan Yueli does not have that much power. It can be seen that Wang Yuanting's ability is not trivial. His reputation as the "Judge in Blue" has never been known. Not just to boast.
Shen Qingxi looked unconvinced. She knew that she had been ruthlessly teased by Wang Yuanting again. Although she felt guilty about the skills, she said unforgivingly: "Huh, of course you don't dare to treat me, otherwise my grandpa will not be able to spare you." !”
Seeing the two of them arguing again, Yan Yueli suddenly felt dizzy and had to reluctantly say to the two of them: "Excuse me, Senior Brother, for a trip. If Senior Sister Shen wants to go with us, let's go too."
Wang Yuanting and Shen Qingxi didn't say anything more. They raised their hands and listened to the order and said, "Yes."
The two of them did not dare to stay longer, and immediately set off to leave. Other disciples did not dare to go in for fear of angering this "little witch".
The main hall that was "busy" just now, now only Yan Yueli was left. It suddenly became deserted, but people were not used to it.
She gradually began to think wildly and was upset by her decision just now. She said leisurely: "I don't know if he will come to see me..."
Yan Yueli burst into laughter after saying this. She didn't know what was wrong with her. Everything has been different since she met Ji Beichen...
No matter how indifferent Ji Beichen was to her, she still couldn't help but want to know everything about him. Her emotions were always tied to him, and she wanted to get rid of him but was unable to do so.
Yan Yueli frowned and bit her lower lip. She was nothing like the free and easy Demon Sect Palace Master she had been before. If this continued, she would even look down on herself...
She thought painfully, and finally thought of something, and then murmured with relief: "It's all for my mother, yes, it's for my mother..."
This self-consolation finally made Yan Yueli sober up. She narrowed her beautiful eyes and said coldly: "Ah Chen, Ah Chen, if you are still so stubborn, I will stay with you until the end. I want to see you." How long can I last?"
——
In the past few days, the front of Xuanji Pharmacy has been extremely busy. Two large trucks of medicinal materials are transported to the pharmacy every day. Zhao Ling'er is extremely busy every day, sorting, sorting, registering, and warehousing medicinal materials. Sometimes she doesn't even have time to eat.
Ji Beichen didn't know what was going on. He just said it was the drug store's daily purchase and didn't ask in detail. He still sets up his hexagram stall at the door of the medicine shop every day, gets up early in the morning to practice his sword to strengthen his body, and concentrates on his luck at night, and his life is quite comfortable.
Senior Shiraishi has disappeared since the last time he saw him. Ji Beichen asked Zhao Ling'er. Zhao Ling'er only knew that her Grandpa Bai was probably out of town, but she didn't know when he would be back.
Ji Beichen thought, could he have returned to Soul-Living Valley? Then he remembered the time he spent with Yan Yueli and the others again.
After all, it had been more than half a month since he left the Soul-Living Valley. Every night he tried to circulate the true energy in his body, but he also figured out some tricks.
That day, he tried to reverse the circulation of the true energy in his body, but he never expected that the true energy would smoothly gather into his Dantian. He learned this method that night at the Ghost Doctor's Tomb, and it seemed like he was taught it by someone in a dream, but he couldn't remember who it was...
The White Stone miraculous doctor is not in the city, and the "Triangle Eye" who came to do divination before has not come to cause trouble again for the time being.
Ji Beichen asked Zhao Ling'er in detail who was the "triangle-eyed" person who came to cause trouble?
Zhao Ling'er hesitated and couldn't explain. She only said that a rich and powerful young man was ill and wanted to see Grandpa Shi for medical treatment. But she didn't know why Grandpa Shi didn't treat him. Maybe that person was some kind of bad person, or He must be a person with bad conduct!
Ji Beichen knew that Senior Baishi knew how to read faces, hexagrams, and Feng Shui, and could do calculations. It was possible that this person had reached the end of his life, and even a miracle doctor could not violate the laws of nature, so he did not go further and thought about "Triangle Eyes" "As long as you don't come to the drug store to cause trouble.
The summer rain came as soon as it came, and I didn't expect that I couldn't avoid it even if I wanted to. Just after noon the next day, "Triangle Eye" came looking for me in the rain.
Ji Beichen was preparing to take shelter from the rain and have some lunch. He blocked the rain with his sleeves and was about to close the divination stall. As soon as he raised his head, he saw the "Triangle Eye" rushing straight towards him, overturning his hexagram stall as soon as it came up.
"Triangle Eyes" put his hands on his hips, pointed at Ji Beichen's nose and cursed: "Little Taoist priest, you are so brave! I made a fortune at your place that day and acted according to the hexagram you interpreted, but in the end I was beaten to pieces. You Do you know how much time was wasted on me and how much money was spent on me?"
