Owning their own pharmacy is the biggest wish of Ni Hongwei and Wu Acai With Li Ba's help, they bought a shop in the market, bought counters, tables, chairs and other necessities, and were ready to open today.
Although they worked hard for most of the night last night, the young couple still got up early and went to the market immediately after eating.
As for their brother Li, he was sleeping with his head covered in the room, snoring like thunder.
The young couple didn't bother them, and Wu Acai even made lunch specially and put it in the pot.
After Brother Li gets up, he can eat it after heating it up.
Arriving at the market, in front of her own shop, a girl wearing Hua Miao costume arrived early.
She is Wu Acai's good friend Shi Zhu and Miao Miao.
They were colleagues before the end of the world and fled to Lanjiadong together.
The drug store is open, but I am worried that it will be busy.
Wu Acai specially called her friends to come over and help.
Of course, she also has another thought, which is to introduce her friends to Li Ba so that her brother will not be alone and live lonely in the Miao village.
When good sisters meet, they are extremely affectionate and have endless whispers.
Ni Hongwei saw him at the side and said with a smile: "It's getting late, let's open the shop first.
If you want to chat, please invite Shi Zhu to our house tonight."
Wu Acai's eyes lit up after hearing this, she took her good sister's hand and said in a low voice: "Azhu, come to my house tonight, I will introduce you to an elder brother."
Shi Zhu has fair complexion and delicate facial features.
She is also a typical Miao beauty.
After hearing this, he covered his mouth and said with a smile: "Let's make a deal first, if he's not a handsome guy, don't introduce him to me."
"Don't worry, he's absolutely handsome," Wu Acai assured, patting her chest.
The store is open.
Because Ni Hongwei was originally a medicinal collector, he knew many of his peers.
It opened today.
With advance care, many colleagues he knew came to take care of the business and sold the herbs they picked to his family.
Following Li Ba's instructions, Ni Hongwei offered a fair price.
So business is good.
The three of them were busy all morning, with almost no time for rest.
It was almost noon and I was slowly relaxing.
After seeing off the last customer, Ni Hongwei planned to take a drink of water and take a rest.
At this time.
A dozen Miao men walked in from outside.
"Miao soldiers" Ni Hongwei has lived in Lanjiadong for more than a year and knows the situation here very well.
At a glance, it can be seen that these sturdy men with Miao swords hanging on their waists are all Miao soldiers from the mother village.
He knew the leading man, a Balu from his mother's village, who seemed to be related to his wife.
"Brother Ji, why are you here?"
When Ni Hongwei was about to say hello, on the other side, Wu Acai was chatting with Shi Zhu.
Smiling Yingying came over to say hello.
"Hey, it's A Cai" The leading Miao man is Lan Ji, who bought the golden dragon soft armor from Li Ba a few days ago.
When he saw Wu Acai, his dark face immediately smiled.
Wu Acai's maternal grandmother's surname was Lan.
She was a native of Lanjiadong, and she was cousins with Lan Ji's grandfather.
Therefore, Wu Acai can be regarded as Lan Ji's cousin.
When he escaped to Lanjiadong, he was taken care of by Lan Ji.
"Ji Ge" Ni Hongwei also hurried over to say hello.
Lan Ji looked at the young couple and asked with a smile: "You open this pharmacy."
"yes" Wu Acai nodded.

With a tone of anger, he added: "Yesterday I went to the village to find you, hoping to ask for some preferential policies.
Unexpectedly, after waiting all morning, I didn't see your people, Brother Ji, and even my uncle was not at the village."
After hearing this, Lan Ji scratched his head and said with a smile: "Yesterday, my father and I went to Tianshui Village to do some business.
We were not at home."
After saying this, he turned around and faced a Miao soldier next to him.
He ordered: "Go and tell the person in charge of the market that this store is opened by my sister.
Don't charge any management fees or anything like that."
"yes" The Miao soldier responded and immediately turned around and left.
“Ji Ge is still interesting enough” Wu Acai's face was full of excitement.
Doing business in the market.
It’s just a street stall.
If you run a serious business, you have to pay a management fee every month.
Although the amount is not large, I am happy to be able to save it.
"Brother Ji, take the brothers and sit down while I go make tea."
Ni Hongwei greeted warmly.
In Lanjiadong, this cheap cousin has great hands and eyes, so of course he has to work hard to win over and deepen the relationship.
"No" Lan Ji declined, saying that he had something important to do.
When he was about to leave with his men, he thought for a moment, took out a portrait, and pointed at it: "Have you seen this person before?"
This is not Brother Li Although the portrait only shows the upper half of the face, the painting is very skillful and lifelike.
Wu Acai recognized at a glance that the person in the portrait was Li Ba.
She was about to speak, but unexpectedly, Ni Hongwei took the lead and said with a smile: "I don't recognize you when I look at it."
Then, he pretended to be curious as to why this portrait only has half of the face.
As soon as her man opened his mouth, Wu Acai immediately reacted and asked: "Brother Ji, why are you looking for this man?"
Lan Ji had put away the portrait at this moment and replied with a smile: "We are not looking for him, it is Lady Gu who told us that we must find this person."
At the mention of the word Gu Girl, everyone in the store showed a look of awe, including Ni Hongwei.
He has lived in Lanjiadong for so long, so he naturally knows what the Lady Gu in Lan Ji's words means in Miao Village.
That is the supreme god-like existence in the minds of the Miao people "Brother Li won't offend Lady Gu, right?"
A flash of horror flashed in Ni Hongwei's eyes, but the expression on his face remained unchanged.
He asked with a smile: "Brother Ji, why is Master Gu looking for him?"
"Not sure" Lan Ji shook his head.
Afterwards, he didn't stay, telling the young couple to go about their business with peace of mind, and if there was any trouble, just go to him.
After Lan Ji and others left, Ni Hongwei immediately dragged Wu Acai to the corner and said in a low voice: "You stay and look at the store.
I'll go back and remember, don't tell anyone that Brother Li is at our house."
"I know."
Wu Acai nodded.
In her mind, she was also in awe of Lady Gu.
But she doesn't worship blindly like the Muzhai tribesmen.
The reason is very simple.
She is a mature Miao, deeply influenced by Han culture, and knows the principle of obeying her husband when she marries.
She will do whatever her man says.
Afterwards, Lan Ji left in a hurry.
In fact, Lan Ji, who was responsible for finding the person, was also very confused.
If he saw it correctly, the person in the portrait.
It was the Han brother who sold him Baojia a few days ago.
He was a little surprised and confused as to why Master Gu wanted to find this Han brother.

You know, Lady Gu never leaves the village.
Even if she rarely meets people from her own clan, how can she be related to this Han brother?
Although I feel strange.
However, he would not disobey Lady Gu's orders at all, and sent extra manpower to seal off the entire Lanjiadong, looking for this Han nationality.
Li Ba, who was in the bamboo house of Ni Hongwei's house, obviously didn't know that the matter last night was not over yet.
He was lying in bed and sound asleep until Ni Hongwei came home and woke him up.
"Xiao Ni, isn't the drug store open today?
Why are you back?"
He rubbed his sleepy eyes.
Li Ba yawned and asked slowly.
Ni Hongwei didn't speak, just stared at him.
Li Ba felt a little embarrassed when he saw it, and touched his face: "There is something on my face."
"No" Ni Hongwei shook his head.
"Then you're just staring at me."
Li Ba rolled his eyes angrily.
"Brother Li, do you know the Gu girl from Bai Miao Village?"
Ni Hongwei finally asked.
He stared at Li Ba with a simple intention, just to confirm whether the person in the portrait was his brother Li. result.
Pretty sure it's him "Gu Girl" Li Ba turned over and sat up.
He scratched his forehead and said, "I don't know him."
"Brother, I'm not kidding you.
There's chaos outside now.
All the Miao soldiers from the Mother Village have been dispatched, looking for someone with your portrait everywhere."
Ni Hongwei looked at Li Ba with a solemn expression.
He said: "He is still a Han with a bare forehead.
Although the portrait only has half a face, at first glance it is you.
It is said that the Miao soldiers were ordered by Lady Gu.
Capturing this bald Han is not a trivial matter.
You must follow me." to be honest" so serious Li Ba's sleepiness disappeared.
After thinking about it, he already understood what was going on.
He said to Ni Hongwei: "I don't know the Gu girl, but last night I went swimming in Qingshui Creek and accidentally met a woman in the lower Cha River.
The beauty accidentally bumped into me while he was taking a shower, and he looked at her a few more times.”
"Is that Cha River surrounded by a wooden fence?"
Ni Hongwei asked after swallowing.
"Yes, I broke the fence to get in," Li Ba admitted honestly.
"Oh my god, brother, the name of that forked river is Moon Lake.
It is a forbidden area of Bai Miao Mother Village.
No one is allowed to break in.
Violators will be killed without mercy."
At this point, Ni Hongwei opened his mouth and was filled with laughter.
Lian was horrified, pointed at Li Ba and said: "Brother, you couldn't have peeped at Lady Gu taking a shower, right?"
Li Ba touched his nose and said with some embarrassment: "First of all, let me make it clear that I didn't do it on purpose.
However, that beauty is indeed good at bewitching.
I suffered a lot and almost lost my life."
"Brother, I admire you for coming back alive."

After hearing this, Ni Hongwei gave Li Ba a thumbs up.
"Xiao Ni, what is this voodoo girl?"
Now it was Li Ba's turn to ask.
He was also very curious about the identity of the beautiful woman last night.
"Five-branched seedlings, believers in the Jiuli ancestral spirit, and are proficient in the secrets of witchcraft and Gu.
Throughout the dynasties, the clan will select children with extraordinary talents and send them to a hidden place they call the temple to undergo the test of the Jiuli ancestral spirit.
The selected boy He is a voodoo son, and the girl is a voodoo girl, inheriting the secrets of witchcraft and voodoo."
Although Ni Hongwei is a Han Chinese, his wife Wu Acai is indeed a progenitor and has a deep understanding of the inheritance of witchcraft.
According to Ni Hongwei, the selected Gu Zi Gu girl symbolizes the messenger of the Jiuli ancestral spirit walking in the world, and has a high status that no one can match.
The attainments in Gu art are also extremely powerful.
"There are eighteen caves in the Miao area, four of which are occupied by white Miao.
Not to mention the Han survivors, there are as many as 500,000 Miao people.
The owners of each cave are called leaders, but in fact they all obey the orders of the Gu women.
It can be said that Lan This lady of poison in Jiadong is the co-owner of Bai Miao.
She has a high status and exists like a god.
Brother, you are someone you don’t want to mess with.
Why did you mess with her?
You even peeked at others bathing."
When Ni Hongwei finished speaking, he shook his head repeatedly and was completely speechless about the brother he recognized.
"It's not all because of your mother-in-law.
You two made a lot of noise when you made cat whip soup.
You were so happy.
I wonder how I survived last night."
Li Ba is confident and eloquent.
Ni Hongwei was speechless again.
At this time, Li Ba scratched his head and said: "I've seen it.
Even if I dig out my eyes now, it's useless.
I already knew what kind of witch this woman is.
I should take a few more glances.
Anyway, I'm offended.
I won't see it in vain."
Don't look at it."
The first half of his sentence sounded regretful, but in the second half, it sounded like a broken jar.
Ni Hongwei couldn't help it anymore and said: "Brother, it's a shame that you still have this thought.
If I were you, I would think of a way to leave Lanjiadong and avoid the limelight first."
"Well, I also have this plan."
This time Li Ba agreed.
He didn't expect that the beautiful woman last night had such a powerful background.
She had more people under her than him, and she was also proficient in weird poisonous arts.
Judging from the current situation, we must avoid offending others.
"When I came back, I saw that the suspension bridge had been sealed by Miao soldiers, and there were Miao soldiers guarding both sides of the river everywhere.
It's very difficult for you to leave Lanjiadong now," Ni Hongwei said with a wry smile.
After hearing this, Li Ba said hehe, "They were able to catch me based on a half-face portrait, so they are looking down on people."
"Brother, do you have any good ideas?"
Ni Hongwei's eyes lit up.
