The old man was in trouble.

While Chen Qiaoxin was worrying about making poison, Lin Mu was also arguing with the system.

"Little Leo, where is my mission reward?"

[What reward? ]

"The reward for eating melons in the racing storyline!"

[Not enough distance, mission failed]

"Hiss~~~you..."

Lin Mu was going to get mad when he heard that the mission failed.

But when he thought of Chu Ruoshuang offering him a job as a playmate with a daily salary of 500,000, it seemed that the mission failure was not unacceptable.

"Forget it, I won't bother with you."

[A mission outside the original storyline was detected. Do you want to accept it? 】

"What is the mission outside the original plot?"

[It is the plot of Ye Bufan's contact with the heroines that did not appear in the original book]

"Go, of course, I am very curious about this plot that I have never seen before."

..........

Two days later.

Yunshan Village, Qingpu County, Donghai City.

A low-key black car stopped steadily at the entrance of the village.

Then a petite figure in white plain clothes jumped out of the car.

"You just wait here, I will call you after I solve the problem."

"Yes, Miss."

After Chen Qiaoxin explained the matter to the bodyguards, she turned and walked towards the village.

Because she wanted to keep it as secret as possible, Chen Qiaoxin did not bring the Chen family's guards and bodyguards, but chose to look for medicine alone.

She took out the crooked map from her pink satchel and began to look for the target.

Because the map was too abstract, Chen Qiaoxin asked many villagers and it took a long time to finally find the place.

She stood at the door of an old house.

The wooden door of the house was a little rotten, and it looked like it would collapse instantly if it was touched lightly.

The walls outside had also lost their former glory, and green moss covered the bottom of the wall, revealing the traces of time.

The dusty environment made Chen Qiaoxin, who had been living a luxurious life since childhood, feel a little uncomfortable.

But she still walked forward and knocked on the door, and an old voice came from the house: "I'm coming."

After a while, the wooden door in front of her was opened.

What came into view was an old man with a kind face and gray hair.

His face was full of traces of time, and every wrinkle seemed to tell the wind and rain and vicissitudes he had experienced.

The silver-like white hair fluttered gently in the breeze, giving people a sense of calmness and tranquility after going through thousands of sails.

He looked at Chen Qiaoxin, who was short and dressed simply and generously, and was a little confused for a while.

"Little girl, what can I do for you?"

The old man's kind tone, coupled with his kind face like that of a grandfather, instantly relaxed Chen Qiaoxin's nervous mood.

"Hello, Grandpa. My name is Chen Qiaoxin. Are you He Nanzhu, Mr. He?"

"Yes, it's me, but I can't say I'm an old man. I'm just an uneducated old man. You can just call me Grandpa He."

"Okay, Grandpa He, I came here to ask you about a medicinal herb."

"Medicinal herb? So, then you come in first, and we'll sit down and talk slowly."

Then Chen Qiaoxin followed Grandpa He into the door.

After entering, she looked around the yard again.

A single-story concrete hut with an open kitchen with a thatched shed next to it.

In one corner of the yard, there is an area for growing vegetables, and a fence for raising chickens and ducks.

Although the layout looks a bit messy, it is still quite neat and clean overall, probably because it is cleaned frequently.

Grandpa He took Chen Qiaoxin to the stone table in the yard and sat down.

He brewed a pot of tea that he had grown for Chen Qiaoxin before he asked.

"Little girl, what medicinal herbs do you want to ask me about?"

Hearing this, Chen Qiaoxin told her purpose without reservation.

"Are you sure you are looking for ghost grass?"

"Yes, Grandpa He."

Chen Qiaoxin answered with a firm look in her eyes.

Ghost grass is a rare and endangered medicinal herb. It is not toxic in itself and is generally used to make incense for calming the nerves.

Only some medical families with many years of inheritance know that it can be used to blend medicinal herbs with different medicinal properties.

In order to improve the efficiency of drug production, Chen Qiaoxin secretly inquired about it and finally found a clue in Yunshan Village.

After getting Chen Qiaoxin's affirmative answer, Grandpa He pondered for a while, then went into the house to fiddle with something.

When he came out, he was holding a box in his hand.

"Here you go, Xiao

Girl, take a look and see if this is the ghost grass you are looking for. "

Chen Qiaoxin took the box excitedly and opened it immediately to confirm.

The medicinal materials in the box are purple-blue in color, and the shape is very much like a ball of ghost fire, which is exactly the same as the records in the family.

"Yes, this is it, Grandpa He, can you sell it to me?"

"Hey, it's just a grass, what's so good about it? I just keep it as a collection. If you like it, I will give it to you."

"Really? Thank you, Grandpa He."

Looking at Chen Qiaoxin who was jumping happily in front of him, Grandpa He couldn't help but think of his granddaughter, and then showed a gentle and doting smile.

"By the way, Grandpa He, do you know where else you can find ghost grass? "

Grandpa He pointed to a mountain nearby.

"I found this ghost grass on that mountain a few years ago. I saw a few plants at that time, but because there were too few, I only picked this one. If you want, you can try your luck there, but remember to find someone to go with you. After all, this mountain road is not easy for a little girl like you to walk on."

"I remember. Thank you very much, Grandpa He. "

Chen Qiaoxin thanked Grandpa He several times, and then went to the village to buy him a lot of thank-you gifts before leaving.

When she came out, it was completely dark, so she went to the town's homestay to spend the night.

Early the next morning.

Chen Qiaoxin wore a black dress and gray jeans that didn't match her at all, and a cute little red hat on her head.

She put some things needed to collect herbs in a basket, and then carried it happily up the mountain.

At first she came here to look for ghost grass, but now she likes the fresh and free primitive environment here.

She went deeper while looking for medicinal materials.

..........

On the other side, a Mayba stopped at the gate of Yunshan Village. Huh.

After getting off the car, Ye Bufan took Jiang Jingying and Jiang Hengxuan inside.

Because the injury was minor, Jiang Jingying only rested for two days before returning to work.

After all, she still had the task of monitoring Ye Bufan.

Ye Bufan actually didn't want Jiang Hengxuan to follow him, but in order to reassure Jiang Jingying, he had to compromise.

As for why he came here?

On the one hand, it was because he had a scenic development plan for Yunshan Village, and on the other hand, it was because he knew Chen Qiaoxin was here.

Last time, he provided Chen Qiaoxin with a prescription to save people and gained a lot of favorability. He felt that it was time to take advantage of the victory again.

He looked at the mountain where Chen Qiaoxin was, with greed in his eyes.

Chen Qiaoxin, who was on a spring outing in the mountains, had no idea that Ye Bufan had set his sights on her again.
