Chapter Twenty-Eight: The Wonderful Medicine Book

"Don't worry, we won't go out and talk nonsense." Qin Wan said, and said to Xing'er: "Xing'er, I want to go out and buy some medical books. You and Xiao Jun stay here, I will be back soon."

"Mr.... Miss, let me go with you! There are so many officers and soldiers outside, I can protect you." Xiao Jun said worriedly.

"No need, you stay here to protect Xing'er."

With that said, Qin Wan opened the door and went out of the shop.

She glanced at the searching officers and soldiers not far away and frowned.

These officers and soldiers were not searching, but they were clearly oppressing the villagers. Their arrogant and domineering look made it obvious that they were accustomed to the fish and meat village!

These people are really hateful.

She was the one who stole the money, so she couldn't cause trouble to others. Qin Wan found a place, changed into black clothes, and immediately went to the county government office.

It's getting dark now, so it's time to take action.

Just when she was about to enter the county government office, suddenly, a scholar appeared in her sight.

Is it that person?

What is he doing here?

The scholar wears a green gauze Confucian robe and holds a white folding fan. He is elegant and elegant, and his behavior is extraordinary.

The gatekeeper did not dare to neglect, and hurriedly stepped forward and asked: "Who are you, sir, and what do you do here?"

"I'm looking for Magistrate Xu. Tell him that I have a way to find out the whereabouts of the money." The scholar looked leisurely, as if he had everything under control.

Qin Wan frowned, this person actually came to help this faint official?

The gatekeeper was overjoyed when he heard this and hurried in to report.

After a while, he came back again and respectfully invited the scholar in.

Qin Wan wanted to see what this man could find out, so he followed him quietly.

Entering the hall, the county magistrate Xu Zhi hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "What do you call me sir? Do you have any good ideas?"

"You don't need to know my name." The scholar's words were very elegant, which was completely different from the county magistrate Xu Zhi. "If you want to get back the silver, you should withdraw all the officers and soldiers immediately, and everything will be at my disposal. As long as you give

I have the power to investigate, and everything will be revealed within three days."

He didn't look like he was talking big words at all, and Xu Zhi was immediately intimidated by his arrogance in strategizing.

This person's words are so extraordinary and he seems to be quite talented. Now that the money has been lost, it is better to just believe him once.

However, this man's arrogance made Xu Zhi uncomfortable and said, "What if I listen to you and the thief escapes, but you can't find out the whereabouts of the silver within three days?"

"Then I will give you my head." The scholar said with a half-smile.

Xu Zhi was shocked by these words. He didn't expect that this person would dare to say such big words.

But at the same time, he also believed in this scholar.

"Okay, if you can help me find the lost silver, I will definitely reward you heavily!" Xu Zhi said.

"We will wait until the lost silver is recovered to discuss the reward. Please answer a few questions and don't make any lies."

"go ahead."

"How many silver coins were lost in total?"

This first question made Xu Zhi not want to tell the truth.

If these people knew that he had lost more than 400,000 taels and spread the word, and the matter would become a big deal, he might not even be able to keep his black hat.

Seeing that Xu Zhi remained silent for a long time, the scholar chuckled and said, "I can't answer such a simple question. It seems that you don't trust me. In that case, I'll take my leave."

With that said, he waved his long sleeves and left gracefully.

"Sir, wait a minute." Xu Zhi quickly stopped the scholar and said awkwardly: "I will tell you."

Qin Wan sat on the beam in the corridor and had a clear view of the room, and could hear their conversation clearly.

This scholar was very meticulous about his own affairs, and he managed to get a lot of things out of Xu Zhi.

She had a vague feeling that this person came to the county government office with ulterior motives.

After answering the scholar's question, Xu Zhi asked: "Sir, do you have any insights?"

"From what I see, it should be a thief. If it weren't for the people around you, how could you know where you hid your silver, and how could you take away so much money quietly?" said the scholar.

Xu Zhi reacted immediately and said quickly: "Yes! Sir, you are right, it must be a traitor! I will arrest everyone in the government office immediately!"

The scholar stopped him and said, "Don't worry, I have my own countermeasures. You just need to wait patiently."

Xu Zhi arranged a residence for the scholar in the county government office. After the two of them dispersed, Qin Wan came down from the beam and left quietly.

Although the scholar was stunned for a while, he finally came to a wrong conclusion.

It would be better to narrow the scope to the county government, so that those officers and soldiers will no longer harass the people.

As for whether the scholar would really lose his head if he couldn't find the silver, Qin Wan felt that he had no responsibility for such a thing. Even if the scholar died, the cause of death was his own lies and had nothing to do with her.

She came out of the county government office and found a bookstore on the street.

Fortunately, the bookstore was still open. Qin Wan went in and asked, "Boss, are there any medicinal books for sale?"

The boss is a young man in his thirties. He looks very elegant and has poetry and books in his belly. He raised his eyes and glanced at Qin Wan and said, "Young lady, are you kidding me? All medicinal books are handed down from generation to generation by drug stores and doctors. Xiao

The store only has a subset of classics and history."

Qin Wan has a big head, and she has forgotten that this world is different from her previous life, and medical skills are not easily passed on to others.

How is it possible to buy medicinal books in a bookstore?

Seeing that Qin Wan had a sad look on her face, the boss said again: "Isn't the girl going to learn medical skills?"

"So what?"

"The girl is already old when she wants to become a disciple, and as far as I know, most of the doctors pass the disease from male to female," the boss reminded.

"Thank you boss for reminding me. I just want to buy a medicine book. Since the store doesn't have it, I'll take my leave."

After Qin Wan finished speaking, he left.

After she left, a door curtain in the bookstore opened, and a woman brought tea and said with a smile: "Husband, Mr. Xu came over yesterday, and didn't he accidentally get a rare medicinal book entrusted to you?"

"Fantastic books are naturally meant to be given to people who are destined to be destined. How can you give them to others without knowing the origin?" The boss took the tea, took a sip and said leisurely.

"I think that woman is not an ordinary person. Yesterday, Mr. Xu just sent me a book on strange medicines, and today she is here. Isn't it fate?"

The boss took his time and said with a smile: "If we are destined to meet you in the future, why should we be anxious, madam?"

Coming out of the bookstore, Qin Wan frowned.

It seems that looking for medicine books will not be found in a short time. Suddenly, an idea flashed in Qin Wan's mind.

If the male protagonist dies, what will happen to the world? Will it disappear and maybe she can go back?

No, no, we can't think like this. After all, if this world disappears, there is a high probability that she will also become a fan. She should stay down to earth.

When I returned to the tailor shop, all the officers and soldiers on the street had disappeared.

But now, it's completely dark.

In addition to the existing four quilts in the shop, the shop owner made two more quilts. These one hundred quilts were enough for him to make for ten days and a half.

Although it took a long time, she still didn't know when the flood would be drained away, so she still wanted everyone to settle down as well as possible.

Suddenly, there was a knock on the door outside the store.

"Is there anyone at home? I'm from Xingsheng Inn."
