Not only did Lin Mengya have a keen sense of smell, but she had also adjusted the radar of the Shen Nung system to the maximum.
It was only two days ago that Xiu had seen Sumei.
Two days ago, if Sumei could still swagger in and out of the streets. That meant that she had another purpose for staying here.
Moreover, the mastermind behind the Immortal Powder must be inextricably linked with Sumei and her gang.
Those people should have been operating in the old capital for a long time.
Even if they wanted to leave, they would not be able to do so in such a short time.
As long as she could find some clues, she would be able to dig three feet into the ground and dig those people out!
On the surface, there seemed to be nothing wrong with the pharmacy that she had just passed by.
However, her radar detected some weak components.
Both the fairy grass and the beauty osmanthus had the effect of aphrodisiac.
In the past, she had heard that many girls in brothels liked to wear sachets made of these two herbs with them.
They did it to attract customers.
However, this was a pharmacy. Under normal circumstances, such inferior herbs would not be sold.
Lin Mengya took a few more glances and moved a few steps into the pharmacy.
"Miss, please come in."
The moment Lin Mengya entered, a clever shop assistant came up to her.
Something was strange. Lin Mengya sized up the shop assistant suspiciously.
Although the smell was faint, she could smell the fragrance of the fairy grass and beauty osmanthus.
How could a drugstore worker possibly have those two herbs on his hands all the time?
The only possibility was that people often came here to buy this kind of medicine.
That was why his body was covered with this smell.
However, Lin Mengya remained calm. She nodded slightly at the shop assistant and pretended to be interested in the herbs on the counter.
"Do you have good quality ginseng? The elderly in my family are weak. I want some good ginseng for them to recuperate."
When the shop assistant saw Lin Mengya's wealth and the many strong servants following behind her, he knew that she might be the daughter of a wealthy family.
He knew that she might be the daughter of a wealthy family.
Immediately, he said with a smile,
"Yes! Of course we do! Don't be fooled by the small size of our shop, we have many good things. Please wait a moment, I will bring it to you immediately. "
The waiter immediately ran to the counter to get it. Lin Mengya turned around and exchanged a look with Xiu.
Xiu retreated quietly. After whispering a few words to a soldier, she returned to Lin Mengya's side.
At this moment, the waiter had already taken out a few good old ginsengs. Presumably, he wanted to cheat Lin Mengya.
"Miss, please take a look. This ginseng is of the best quality and is the treasure of our store. Ordinary people naturally did not have the fortune to enjoy it. But Miss, you look like you're born with wealth, so if it's not something good, I wouldn't dare to bring it to you. "
Lin Mengya raised her eyebrows and glanced at them with flagging interest.
The quality was not bad, but it was a pity that it was poorly preserved. The effect of the medicine had been greatly weakened.
This thing was not as nutritious as dried carrots.
"Hmm, it looks good. It's just that the elders in my family have high standards, so I'm afraid they won't like it. Do you have any rare goods here? Don't worry, you'll get the money. "
The waiter immediately smiled as if he had seen his own mother. It seemed that this was a big fat sheep.
"Miss, you really have good eyes. We have a hundred-year-old glossy ganoderma. How can there be such good goods outside? Please take a look. Do you like it? Apart from our store, it's rare to see it in other people's stores. "
A hundred-year-old glossy ganoderma? Lin Mengya was a little curious. A hundred-year-old glossy ganoderma was extremely rare.
Although it was not completely non-existent, it would be difficult to take it out in this small store.
Unexpectedly, the shop assistant took out a large flat and round box from under the counter very cautiously.
It seemed to be heavy.
Seeing him carefully, put it on the counter, and then, open it.
In an instant, a fragrant aroma spread out from the box.
"Miss, please take a look. Do you like it?"
The waiter looked complacent, but Xiu was a little surprised.
Good heavens, it was the first time she had seen a glossy ganoderma that was twice the size of her face!
"Is there really a hundred-year-old glossy ganoderma? Sister, come and take a look. It's amazing! "
Xiu cried out in surprise, and her big watery eyes were wide open.
On the other hand, Lin Mengya only glanced at it indifferently, as if she was not surprised.
"Do you mean this is the hundred-year-old glossy ganoderma in your store?"
The waiter did not expect this young lady to have such a high standard.
Basically, all the customers would be surprised when they took it out.
However, this young lady seemed to be used to seeing it.
"Of course, this is the real treasure of our store, the hundred-year-old glossy ganoderma. Little Miss, have you ever seen a glossy ganoderma that is bigger than the one in our store? "
Xiu shook her head. This thing was black. Although it was much smaller than the usual glossy ganoderma, its color and shape were very similar.
"That's right. The boss of our store is the most famous glossy ganoderma pharmacist in the old capital. Apart from our store, no one else can take out this glossy ganoderma. "
At this point, the waiter looked proud.
Indeed, if it was really a glossy ganoderma, it would be extremely rare.
Unfortunately, he had encountered Lin Mengya.
"Men, arrest him!" Do you know that this thing you're selling could kill someone? It's clearly poisonous, but you said it's a glossy ganoderma. How hateful. "
Lin Mengya's words were calm, but there was a hint of coldness in her eyes.
She could naturally tell whether this thing was a glossy ganoderma or not.
It was possible for anyone in the world to make a mistake, but she was the only one who was always right.
"You! What are you doing? Let me tell you, our shopkeeper is a famous person in the old capital! "
A few burly men entered the store at the sound of her voice and pounced on the waiter.
The waiter was anxious. He had never seen such a scene before.
Immediately, he began to shout.
However, he was no match for those soldiers. He had just resisted a few times when he was firmly pinned to a corner, unable to move on the spot.
"Sister Princess, this thing looks like a glossy ganoderma! It smells like a glossy ganoderma. How could it be wrong? "
Xiu looked at Lin Mengya in confusion and asked in a low voice.
Lin Mengya looked at the waiter who was struggling but could not do anything, but there was no pity in her eyes. She walked over to the counter and lifted up the bottom of the counter.
Sure enough, there were seven to eight such boxes stacked neatly together.
What a hundred-year-old glossy ganoderma. Such a rare thing had become a common commodity in their store.
"Miss, I don't know how I've offended you. Although our store is small, it's considered an old one in the old capital. What you're doing is against the rules! "
Seeing that he could not break free, the waiter could only talk to Lin Mengya.
"It's not up to you to decide whether it's against the rules or not. Moreover, you're the one who sold fake medicine. I'm doing this to help the people get rid of a scourge. I'll ask you a question, and you'll answer me accordingly. So that you won't have to suffer any more physical pain. "
Lin Mengya would never believe that the waiter was unaware of what was going on.
The so-called glossy ganoderma had the same appearance, but in fact, it was a completely different kind of fungus from the glossy ganoderma.
Naturally, there were thousands of ways to make it smell the same. A person's sense of smell and sight were the easiest to deceive.
That was why it had not been exposed on the spot.
"Dear customer, you've really made a mistake. I'm just a waiter in this store. No matter what, it was the shopkeeper who asked me to sell it this way. Please forgive this lowly one and let this lowly one go. This lowly one is innocent! "
Seeing that his threat had failed, the waiter immediately put on a sorrowful look.
Now that he was being held down by two strong men. He could not come up with any tricks.
He could only look at Lin Mengya, hoping that she would be merciful.
"Innocent? If you're really innocent, you wouldn't have recommended this poisonous glossy ganoderma to me. Let me ask you, where's your shopkeeper? "
The waiter rolled his eyes and said, "He's gone out.
Our shopkeeper has gone out to stock up on the goods! If you don't believe me, you can ask the neighbors in the neighborhood. He has to go out to stock up on the goods at this time of the month! "
The waiter shouted loudly, fearing that Lin Mengya would be dissatisfied and he would suffer again.
"Oh? Really? So you're the only one in this store? "
Lin Mengya did not say that she believed him, nor did she say that she did not. A pair of eyes looked at him and asked coldly.
"That's right … I'm alone. Miss, please let this lowly one go. This lowly one really doesn't know! "
The waiter pleaded with a pitiful look on his face. Those who did not know better would think that he had been wronged.
"In that case, I'll take you away. Anyway, if you don't tell the truth, someone will make you tell the truth. I'm afraid you can't bear the punishment in the prison. "
The waiter was stunned, and then he put on a dejected look.
"Alright, alright, I'm unlucky. You guys, take me to the prison. "
Did he admit defeat so quickly? Lin Mengya's lips curled up into a cold smile.
"You guys, take him to the dungeon of the Pavilion of Herbs and treat him well."
Hearing that it was the dungeon of the Pavilion of Herbs, a flash of joy flashed across the waiter's eyes.
He thought that he was hiding it, but everything fell into Lin Mengya's eyes.
Sure enough, this waiter had colluded with the Pavilion of Herbs. This waiter must know something. Moreover, the poisonous glossy ganoderma might have been recognized by someone before.
This was the old capital, where the Pavilion of Herbs dominated. Even the magistrate had to give face to the Pavilion of Herbs.
