Ancient paintings connect the present, I hoard goods to support the villain Wang

Chapter 158 Xiao Jingyan is still waiting for her to save his life

Shi Xi, who had just walked out of the bathroom, saw the ancient painting emitting a dazzling light and knew that Xiao Jingyan had sent her another message.

She immediately ran over to check.

After opening the letter with great joy, he saw that it was written by Gu Yehe's ghostwriter.

"This is a personal message from the God. Last night, the enemy attacked. Prince Ding'an was stabbed while leading his troops to resist. However, the knife was poisoned. The poison has spread throughout his body, and his life is in danger. I need the following herbs to save his life. I hope the Fairy will be so kind as to give them to him."

"The author, Gu Yehe, along with Wang Tiezhu, Zhiren, Jiang Zhihao, Chi Xin, and five others, are willing to serve as slaves for generations to come to repay the fairy's kindness."

The first one is a simple statement of purpose.

The second one is the required medicinal materials.

When Shi Xi saw the words that Xiao Jingyan was injured and poisoned, she just glanced over the subsequent content.

She hurriedly took out the second piece of paper and looked at the medicinal herbs on it. She felt that these were all sold in the local Chinese medicine clinic.

But it's already 7:30 in the evening, and I don't know if it's closed.

She hurriedly gave the prescription to Yan Xing and Yan Yue and asked them to go out and help find it.

I posted it on my Moments again, asking my all-powerful Moments if they knew of any Chinese medicine clinics in this city that could get these medicines.

Yan Xing and Yan Yue had just finished washing up.

After receiving Shi Xi's task, he hurriedly dressed and left the hotel.

Shi Xi was not idle either. She carried her bag, took some money, and went out with Xingyue to look for it.

Yan Xing drove the car they had brought from Xinghai City to the busiest street.

Yan Yue borrowed a motorcycle from the hotel and went to the smallest alleys.

Shi Xi had no choice but to scan a shared bicycle on the side of the road.

She felt that Chinese medicine clinics were most likely to be opened in places where there were many elderly people, so she looked in places like residential buildings and family housing in the old city.

While following the navigation, she also did not forget to wander carefully around the old residential buildings.

Some old Chinese medicine clinics are not opened for the purpose of making money, so they are most likely opened in the owner's home.

In the circle of friends, people like Yan Ran saw that Shi Xi was in urgent need of these herbs, and they all thought that Shi Xi was sick and injured again.

Everyone was happy to bring her medicine.

However, when they heard that she was not in Xinghai City but had gone to the neighboring city, everyone was helpless.

The two cities are too close to each other to be connected by air.

Besides, Xiao Jingyan only has three hours, or six hours, and there is no way he can drive back.

After all, the journey back would take at least four hours, and it would be too unsafe if we encountered traffic jams or other unpredictable situations.

They could only pray and try to find all the herbs here.

Shi Xi rode a bicycle, weaving through the alleys, looking at the residential buildings in the surrounding communities.

There are quite a few Chinese medicine clinics and pharmacies selling Chinese herbal medicines in this area.

But at this time, everything is closed.

The pharmacies that were open only sold Western medicines, and Shi Xi had also wondered if there were any Western medicines that could replace these herbs.

But she didn't know anything about medicine, so she went in and asked the pharmacist in charge of the store, but he didn't know anything either. He just kept asking about the condition of the person who was sick.

Helpless, Shi Xi didn't want to waste time with them and had to leave.

On the wrist, the Blancpain Moon Beauty 3663 watch makes a ticking sound.

Shi Xi's brows drooped slightly. Two hours had passed since Xiao Jingyan received the letter, but they still hadn't found a Chinese medicine clinic that was open.

The bicycle pedals under her feet were almost sparking and her feet were so painful from being rubbed.

The young lady who always rides the car when she goes out has delicate skin. She feels that the soles of her feet may have blisters. The distance she rides tonight is equivalent to the distance she rides in a year.

But even so, she didn't dare to stop.

Xiao Jingyan's life is waiting for her to save it!

She gritted her teeth and continued walking through the streets and alleys.

Because he was riding too fast, he almost hit a pedestrian walking in front of him. In order to avoid the pedestrian, he fell off the bike.

My body hit the ground hard, and the pain went straight into the bones.

But even so, she seemed not to feel the pain. She stood up with the help of the car and turned around to leave.

"Hey, girl, what are you rushing to do?"

"The road ahead is under construction and not easy to walk on. Please be careful."

The old lady who was almost hit by her kindly reminded her.

Out of politeness, Shi Xi paused for a second and thanked the old lady.

Thinking that she was an old neighbor here, Shi Xi felt that she might know of a Chinese medicine clinic that was still open at this time.

"Grandma, I'm from Xinghai City and I don't know much about this place. Do you know where I can buy Chinese herbal medicine at this time?"

"My friend is sick. He has a special constitution and can only take Chinese medicine."

Shi Xi's voice was very urgent, and his eyes looked around, with worry and uneasiness overflowing from them, as if he had encountered a matter of life and death.

When the old lady heard that she needed Chinese herbal medicine, she immediately smiled like a flower.

"My family runs a traditional Chinese medicine clinic."

"I am an old man who likes to collect medicinal herbs. I have all kinds of rare and precious ones."

"I see you look kind, so I'll tell you in secret that I have a five-hundred-year-old Ganoderma lucidum at home. It's worth a fortune!"

The old lady seems to have some Alzheimer's disease, and her cute appearance is just like a little child.

Shi Xi didn't care about that. Even if she was just lying to herself, she would not give up as long as there was a glimmer of hope.

"really?"

"Grandma, please take me there quickly. I must get these herbs right away."

She wouldn't be so stupid as to leave with a stranger.

She secretly turned on her location and asked Xingyue to come find her.

In addition, the pepper spray and electric baton in the bag are ready.

"That's great! My wife made sea cucumber dumplings today. They're delicious."

The old lady said very enthusiastically.

Before she finished speaking, she took Shi Xi's arm and walked towards the residential area nearby.

There were a lot of people in this area, and Shi Xi's fear of the unknown was reduced to the lowest level.

As we continued walking, the elderly people passing by seemed to know this grandma. They greeted her warmly and asked her whose daughter she was holding.

The old lady just answered that she wanted to buy medicine, and the elderly people on the street came towards Shi Xi and took the initiative to introduce her to her grandmother's husband, Grandpa Pan.

Mr. Pan is a well-known traditional Chinese medicine doctor of his generation. After retirement, he set up a small pulse diagnosis room at home to treat minor illnesses for the elderly nearby and people who come to see him.

His fees have always been fair and the medicines he prescribed were almost always effective, so he has left behind an extremely good reputation.

It’s a pity that his children are unfilial and his wife suffers from mild Alzheimer’s disease, making his already impoverished life even more difficult.

After hearing these words, Shi Xi finally let go of the worry in her heart.

It seems that I was really overthinking it. This old lady had no ill intentions and she was telling the truth.

Look, there are still many good people in this world! "There's another chapter tonight, see you guys!"
