    "Well? According to the information that Senior Brother Tian gave me, Qingmen Town should be a prosperous town. Why does it seem so deserted now? Although it's not early, it's not like the whole town has even one town.  No one is there, right?" Li Haoxuan thought as he stood outside Qingmen Town, looking at the darkening sky.  Li Haoxuan walked forward slowly and found that the entire Qingmen Town was like this, without any life.  Soon, the sky became completely dark, and only a few lights in the distance were still on. The fire was weak and seemed to be blown out by the wind at any time.  "Grandpa, it has not rained in Qingmen Town for more than two months. The herbs in the medicine field may not be able to survive." In a dimly lit hut, a girl used the faint light to  He was mending a piece of clothing full of patches, and said to an old man sitting at the door smoking a cigarette, his tone full of helplessness.  "I don't believe that God will treat our Qingmen Town like this." The old man took two puffs of cigarette and then said dullly, "My grandpa once told me that our Qingmen Town is destined to be immortal.  God will bless us with good weather and good health every year! Wait a little longer, Crescent Moon. It may rain in two days. I will go to Xiliang River to get some water tomorrow morning. I will save as much medicine as I can.  "Grandpa, look at Uncle Wang, Uncle Li and the others. They sold their medicine fields and went elsewhere. I heard that they have reopened medicine fields elsewhere and are living a pretty good life."  They can do it and we can do it, so why bother to stick to this Qingmen Town? According to me, let alone a day or two, I'm afraid it won't rain in the next month or two." The woman called Yueyue'er pouted.  said.  "Shut up." After hearing this, the old man slammed the wooden board on the door and shouted. Then he seemed to feel that his tone was too harsh, and sighed and said, "Hey, Yue Ya'er, grandpa knows that you are suffering, but  Qingmen Town really has a destiny. I believe that God will never treat our Qingmen Town like this. Yue Ya'er, you can't forget your roots. The soil and water nurture the people. Qingmen Town has raised us, and now we are Qingmen.  The town is in trouble, so we should stick to it. " "Okay, okay, I'm just saying casually, I don't expect you to move out at all," Yue Yaer wrinkled her nose and said, "If you do.  If you really had that intention, you wouldn¡¯t secretly buy Uncle Wang¡¯s medicine field.¡± ¡°Ahhow do you know this?¡± the old man asked in surprise.  "Grandpa, I'm not a child anymore, and I don't care about things in the store. Do you really think you can hide it from me?" Yue Ya'er hummed, "Okay, I'm going to rest. Grandpa, please be early."  Rest, I've mended your clothes. I'll go with you to fetch water from the Xiliang River tomorrow. I can carry more or less." "No, Grandpa has plenty of strength. You can just cook for Grandpa at home.  Or go to the medicine field to weed. " "It's okay" "Old man, is there a medicine hall called Huichun Hall in Qingmen Town?" At this time, a handsome young man came over.  Asked the old man.  "Huichun Hall? What are you doing with Huichun Hall?" The old man was stunned for a moment, then asked.  "Isn't Huichuntang a pharmacy? I'm here to buy medicine." Li Haoxuan replied.  "Buying medicine? If we don't sell it, go somewhere else." After hearing this, the old man's face suddenly changed and he said gloomily.  "Not for sale? Could it be is this the Huichun Hall?" Li Haoxuan asked in surprise.  "Grandpa, how can you do this kind of business? Why do you push customers outside when they come to your door? Master, this is the Huichun Hall. You are here to buy medicine, right? Can you show me the list?" At this time,  Yue Ya'er walked out and said to Li Haoxuan with a smile.  "Oh, this is the list." Li Haoxuan quickly took out a list from his arms and handed it over.  "Three hundred ginseng, five hundred Polygonum multiflorum Five hundred kilograms of wide angle, five hundred kilograms of Euphorbia" Yue Yaer carefully read the entire page of the list, and finally shook his head and said with a little regret, "Sir,  , We really can¡¯t get these medicinal materials now.¡± ¡°How could it be?¡± Li Haoxuan was even more surprised, ¡°I have long heard that Qingmen Town is the hometown of medicinal materials, and I even heard that Huichun Hall is the largest in Qingmen Town.  Medicine Hall, that¡¯s why I traveled a long way from thousands of miles away. This amount of medicine should be nothing to Huichun Hall, right? " "If it were a year ago, or even half a year ago, it would be nothing to us at Huichun Hall?  This is nothing, it is easy to get it, but now, it is different from the past." Yue Yaer sighed and said, "To tell you the truth, we can indeed get the medicinal materials you want, but it is really  It can¡¯t be sold. Listen to my explanation. It has not rained in Qingmen Town for several months now, and the medicine fields are almost cracked by the sun. If my grandfather and a few guys hadn¡¯t gotten up every day,Those who go to the Xiliang River to fetch water for irrigation will be long gone!  " "But there are so many medicinal fields, how can just a few people use them?  If it doesn't rain, all the medicinal materials in the medicinal fields will be sunburned to death in a few days!  If that day comes, the finished medicinal materials we are hoarding now are the best seeds, and they are also the key to our future start over. If we sell them to you now, where will our seeds come from?  Why do so many people come to Qingmen Town to buy medicinal materials? It¡¯s because our medicinal materials are good. Why are our medicinal materials good?  The key point is that the seeds are good and the varieties are good. Therefore, at this time, we will never sell so many medicinal materials. If you want a pound or two, it doesn't matter.  " "Oh, that's it." Li Haoxuan nodded and said. Qingmen Town really couldn't blame the other party for encountering such a problem. After thinking about it for a while, he suddenly asked, "This what if it rains?  God, if it rains, can you sell me the medicinal materials?  " "If it rains, our medicinal fields and medicinal materials will be saved. In this case, it's okay to sell the finished medicinal materials to you," Yue Ya'er said. "But some people watch the sky at night and have concluded that there will be no more medicines in the next few days.  It's raining. Otherwise, Master, you'd better go somewhere else. A hundred miles to the south is the Imperial Capital, where there are a lot of medicinal materials.  " "How can the medicinal materials in the imperial capital be compared with the medicinal materials in Qingmen Town?  Li Haoxuan smiled slightly and said, "Girl, let's make an agreement. If it rains tomorrow, you will sell your medicinal materials to me. How about that?"  " "Haha, okay," Yue Ya'er showed a smile and said, "But we have to agree first. If there is less rain, it doesn't matter if the medicinal materials in the medicine field cannot survive.  " "This is natural.  Li Haoxuan nodded, and then asked, "Can I ask where your medicinal field is?"  Although I am in the business of buying and selling medicinal materials, I have never seen what a medicinal field looks like.  " "Go straight to the west, and you'll be there in about three miles." Yue Ya'er chuckled, seeming a little surprised that Li Haoxuan would be interested in the medicine field, and then pointed out the general direction to Li Haoxuan. "Well, I'll leave first, then.  Come back tomorrow.  "Li Haoxuan said, then he nodded with Yue Ya'er and turned to the west. "This man is really interesting. Do you want to go see the medicine field at night?  So impatient?  "Looking at Li Haoxuan leaving, Yue Ya'er covered her mouth and smiled, revealing two shallow dimples. " Yue Ya'er, who do you think would run into the medicine field in the middle of the night?  You won't be robbed, right?  "The old man stood up and said, with a look of surprise on his face. "Grandpa, you are thinking too much.  Yue Ya'er turned around and said, "Who in the entire Qingmen Town doesn't know where our Huichun Hall's medicine field is?"  He could find out the address just by asking anyone. Besides, weren't there others in the medicine field?  Nothing can happen, not to mention that you don¡¯t know the current situation in the medicine fields. What can be missing?  "That's true." The old man thought for a while and said, "Hey, even I have become suspicious. Well, it's getting late. I'm going to bed. You should go to bed early too."  "After that, the old man knocked out the ash from the cigarette, turned around and walked upstairs. In the time it took the old man to talk to the girl, Li Haoxuan had already arrived outside the medicine field of Huichun Hall.
