Ye Qin took the big cow and found the iron shop of Yang Yicheng's family in the county seat.

He had to find a way to settle the big cow.

It is absolutely not okay to let the big cow beg in the county town and be bullied again. It was not easy to find Da Niu, and he couldn't let Da Niu suffer anymore. However, now that he has his status, there is no way to let Da Niu enter the medicine collection hall and be a medicine picking boy.

In this county, there are not many people who have a relationship with him, only the master and the other four brothers are closer. Feng Xiaojia is a tenant outside the county, and Qian Ruxiu and Sun Ying are tailors and weavers, which are not too suitable.

Thinking about it, it is also suitable for Yang Yicheng's iron shop. He lived in the county seat, and he could learn the craft of striking iron with one hand, and he could earn food with his own hands in the future.

When Yang Yicheng left, he once told him that his home was somewhere in the county, so it was not difficult to find.

Ye Qin soon found the Yang family's iron shop in the civilian area in the southeast of the county. It was a small, dilapidated blacksmith shop, with a rotten flag in the doorway, and an iron stove and some hammers to make and repair some hoes, sickles, and other farm tools.

Yang Yicheng is helping his father strike iron.

Seeing Ye Qin visiting, Yang Yicheng was very happy, and hurriedly introduced to his father that this was his fellow disciple and brother, which was very powerful. Father Yang is a swarthy and honest middle-aged iron man, and when he saw Ye Qin, he just smiled and nodded, and he couldn't say half a word for a long time.

Ye Qin secretly wondered, how could such an honest and honest person give birth to a guy like Yang Yicheng who could speak well and couldn't be idle all day long. However, he muttered these words in his heart, otherwise Yang Yicheng would be crazy again.

Ye Qin pulled the big cow who followed behind, and introduced to Yang Yicheng about his fellow villager Cheng Da Niu, and wanted the big cow to find a job in the Yang family's iron shop.

"It's a trifle!"

Yang Yicheng didn't hesitate, immediately patted his chest and agreed, and then told his father to leave Da Niu behind.

Father Yang frowned, but just shook his head.

"Dad, isn't there just one more person? Isn't it just right that we have multiple helpers in the Yang family's iron shop? My brother asked for help the first time, but he couldn't help, so how can I meet people in the future?"

Yang Yicheng was anxious, and Ye Qin didn't take care of him in the division. If he loses face and hurts his feelings because of such a trivial matter, then how will he be this senior brother in the future.

Daddy Yang's face turned red for a long time before he could hold back a sentence, and he couldn't say it clearly.

However, Ye Qin understood that the general meaning was that the iron shop was too small, the business was light, and he couldn't afford to support people.

Ye Qin ran away from his hometown because his family couldn't afford to support people, so he naturally understood the difficulties of small shops, it was not easy to raise a person, and he couldn't recruit people if he wanted to. If there is no work to do, one more person will become a drag.

He immediately took out a hundred copper coins from his arms and stuffed them into Father Yang's hand.

"Daddy Yang. There is not much money here, just spend three copper coins a day to buy a few steamed buns for Da Niu, which should be able to make him eat for a month. In the future, the money I earn in the medicine collection hall will be sent over as food for the big cow. ”

Yang Yicheng's face turned red, and he also took out a hundred copper coins from his arms and stuffed them into his father's hand.

"Dad, I forgot to tell you that Master sent us some money. I can't use the money for the time being, so I can just scrape together enough food for two months. Let's go into the mountains, it is estimated that we should be able to come back once in a month or two, and there will definitely be money at that time, so let Da Niu stay in our iron shop. ”

Father Yang was carrying two hundred copper coins in his hand, obviously not expecting the two of them to come up with two months' food expenses, so he was stunned and finally nodded.

Yang Yicheng was overjoyed, patted Ye Qin's shoulder and said loudly, "See, I said a trivial matter a long time ago, second junior brother, you, a fellow villager, will stay in my Yang family's iron shop in the future!"

Ye Qin was secretly moved, although the senior brother usually has a big grin and occasionally bullies people, but he is also righteous at a critical time.

After placing the big cow in the Yang family's iron shop, Ye Qin left with confidence.

The next time.

The thirty or forty children of the medicine collection hall officially entered the exercise period. They were divided into ten groups, and under the leadership of ten medicine pickers, they left the county town and went to the deep mountains and old forests within thousands of miles in all directions to look for herbs.

Ye Qin and the five of them were followed by a young medicine picker named Xie Ze.

This Xie Ze, an apprentice brought out by Deputy Hall Master Ji, is now about twenty-seven or eighteen years old, dressed in ordinary coarse cloth clothes, with a slender figure, and does not speak much, but he is very cold. He looks like an ordinary herb picker, but if you look closely at his pair of long, thin and sharp eagle claw hands, you can find that he has more than ten years of eagle claw skills. put on the rivers and lakes, it is definitely a powerful character.

I don't know why, Ye Qin always felt that the people in the Medicine Picking Hall, especially, had a cold and indifferent atmosphere, and they didn't take others seriously. This is not the reason for the exercises, but almost most people do.

Ye Qin carried a heavy large herbal medicine basket on his back, which contained ropes, hooks, oil, salt and spices, iron pots, drinking bags, all kinds of cloth bags, leather bags, etc., one foot deep and one foot shallow, silently following Xie Ze within five steps.

The burdens of the six men were all carried on his own shoulders.

After Xie Ze understood the exercises they cultivated, he made a division of labor for the five of them.

Six people just formed a combination of medicine collection with a clear division of labor. With Xie Ze as the center of the medicine picker, it was scattered in all directions. Ye Qin followed closely behind him, the closest and safest.

Yang Yicheng is a pair of palms with foreign kung fu mighty, responsible for opening the way head-on, and killing and expelling fierce beasts when encountered. Sun Ying carried the sword on his back, on the left, and gave Yang Yicheng support. Qian Ruoxiu learned to fold plum with dexterous hands, on the right, catching insects, snakes, ants, and beasts. Some valuable insects, snakes, ants, and beasts can be used in medicine.

Feng Xiaoqinggong can't be used for the time being, he always makes the light gong float around hundreds of paces around everyone, and he is known as "reconnaissance". However, there are more ingredients to show off, and occasionally he can pick up a few low-value small herbs, which is an unexpected gain, and Feng Xiao can't help but be happy.

Ye Qin lacked attack and defense capabilities, but his physical strength was super strong, and he carried all the things that six people needed to collect medicine, relieving the pressure on the other five people's physical strength. Everyone has no burden, and with good physical strength, they can naturally go faster and farther.

Ye Qin didn't have the slightest complaint about this, he knew his ability, the effect of the pre-chapter of "Sitting and Forgetting the Sutra" was very strange, making his physical strength vigorous, far surpassing the other four junior brothers in just six months. However, when it comes to fighting, he is only afraid that he is not as good as any of the four senior brothers, and he will not be able to exert the offensive and defensive effects that ordinary internal strength should have. As the book says, this book of secrets can only strengthen the body and prolong life.

Carrying a load on his back, Ye Qin was cultivating while walking along the way. That faint trace of breath, every time the meridians in his body run for a large or small week, it can dissolve the tiredness on his body and limbs, allowing him to recover his exerted physical strength in time.

But unfortunately, that aura seems to be difficult to cultivate and grow, and there is always only a trace of nothingness.

With each revolution, there is a certain limit to the amount of physical strength that can be recovered. If the physical energy is consumed too quickly, it will not be able to recover.

Fortunately, Xie Ze didn't walk fast, and went all the way to the depths of the mountains in the southwest. After entering the mountains and forests hundreds of miles away, the speed slowed down even more. Stop and go over the valley cliffs to see if there are any herbs worth picking all at once. Occasionally, I pulled out a grass on the edge of a cliff or a river valley, and picked roots and leaves.

After walking down these hundreds of miles, I have inadvertently collected many roots, stems, lumps, leaves, flowers, seeds, fruits and other medicinal materials, and filled dozens of small sacks and leather bags.

Ye Qin had been following Xie Ze within five steps, so he could see it clearly, and couldn't help but secretly admire the keen vision of this Senior Brother Xie Ze. The herbs that the five of them didn't notice, this senior brother saw at a glance from afar.
