Chapter 111 Blood Ginseng

The four of them were becoming more and more curious about Chen Mo.

And with Lu Yuan's knowledge, he also knew that if such fine fine salt could be sold, it would definitely be sold at a very high price.

Su Qi was a bit impatient. Seeing that there was an arrangement, he immediately asked how his children were doing.

Then Lu Yuan and others also asked.

Chen Mo smiled and said, "Follow me."

Chen Mo took four people to the school at the east end of the village.

As soon as I arrived outside the school, I heard the sound of reading aloud in the school.

Lu Yuan and the other four were stunned.

Without disturbing anyone, Chen Mo led the four of them to the classroom window and pointed inside.

Lu Yuan and others' eyes widened. They found that their children were sitting behind the desks, reading with the children around them. There was an old man teaching above.

Chen Mo whispered: "This old man is Master Zhao, a scholar, and now a teacher in the school, responsible for teaching the people in the village how to read and write."

"How many beams are there?" Lu Yuan asked.

"Nothing will be taken. Master Zhao's remuneration will be given by the village." Chen Mo said.

Lu Yuan and the four others suddenly looked solemn, and they felt a sense of respect for Chen Mo in their hearts.

You know, studying in the Song Dynasty was a very luxurious thing. Although there were private schools in the county, the tuition was extremely expensive. The poor could not afford the tuition even if they sold iron. Not to mention all kinds of books, pen, ink, paper and inkstone.

Therefore, Chen Mo's behavior is admirable.

"It just so happens that they study with the children in the village, so they don't feel lonely. They have a playmate, so you can worry less." Chen Mo said.

Lu Yuan nodded and said, "What about after school?"

"Of course it's up to you to take them back, or they can go home separately. I sent someone to take them away last night, and I just asked Master Zhao to enroll them in school." Chen Mo said.

Hearing this, Lu Yuan and others breathed a sigh of relief and quickly thanked him. As for Chen Mo's words, they could only believe it.

After leaving the school, Chen Mo found Lu Yuan alone, brought the red ginseng and asked him if he knew what it was.

Lu Yuan looked at the red ginseng and was startled at first, then picked it up and looked at it, and said, "Master Chen Xian, can I break off the roots and take a look?"

Chen Mo nodded.

Lu Yuan broke off a root, and where the root broke, bright red juice flowed out, just like blood.

Lu Yuan's eyes widened, and then his voice was slightly excited, and he said: "Master Chen Xian, this is blood ginseng, cultivated from human blood, and only the blood of warriors is effective. Just one five-year-old blood ginseng can It is worth hundreds of gold and is used by warriors to break through bottlenecks. I have only heard that this kind of thing is only available in the capital, and it is not circulated in the market. I only had a chance to see it when I was in the capital in the early years."

"A hundred gold?" Chen Mo raised his eyebrows. According to the conversion of gold and silver, wouldn't it be worth a thousand taels of silver?
"Is it used to break through bottlenecks? Can it be used for practice?" Chen Mo asked.

"I'm not sure about this, but since it can be used to break through bottlenecks, it must also be used for cultivation." Lu Yuan did not ask where the blood ginseng in Chen Mo's hand came from. There are some things that shouldn't be If he asks, he won't ask.

"Then how old is this one?" Chen Mo asked again.

Lu Yuan still shook his head. Although he had seen it before, he didn't know much about blood ginseng.

Chen Mo frowned. This was the case for people at the bottom. Even warriors knew very little about some things.

Two days later, Zhang He brought five thousand kilograms of refined salt and led one hundred brave guards to Quanyang County. Chen Mo asked Lu Yuan to follow him, while Lu Yuan's family and bodyguards stayed in the village.

In a prison cell in the village.

It's better to say it's a cell than a small dark room.

There is no window in the small dark room, and once the door is closed, no light can shine in.

Wang Ran has been locked up in a small dark room for three days.

During these three days, I only had one meal and half a bowl of water every day.With his hands and feet dislocated, he could only lie on the ground to eat like a dog.

The most important thing is that during these three days, no one came to ask him. Except for delivering food to him on time at noon every day, he didn't even see anyone.

He didn't even know how long it had been. He felt like an abandoned person and felt extremely lonely.

Gradually, he felt inexplicably extremely irritable, anxious, tired, and even afraid. The physical fatigue and physical and mental torture made Wang Ran feel like he was going crazy.

He yelled outside the house, but there was no response.

At this moment, there were footsteps outside the house, the door was opened a crack, and today's food and water were brought in.

After delivering food and water, the people outside left.

Wang Ran shouted to the outside: "Come back, come back to me. I told you what you want to know. I said that I can give you my two concubines. All you want is to let me out."

Wang Ran really couldn't stand it anymore.

……

At the entrance of the village, by the river.

"One or two."

"One or two, drink."

Following Chen Mo's rhythm, the brave guards waved their knives.

[The number of swings of the sword +1, the experience of slashing with one strike of the sun +1. 】

Chen Mo's upper body was bare, sweat was flowing on his chest, and the muscles on his arms were trembling.

Although Chen Mo is only 17 years old, he is much taller than people of the same age. According to modern measurements, he is 1.8 meters tall. His muscles are bulging but not rough, showing his masculinity and giving people a sense of oppression. Full.

His face looks quite young, and if he puts on clothes, he will feel much less oppressive.

"Master Chen Xian, Master Chen Xian"

At this moment, a man from the Brave Guard reserve team ran towards him.

He was delivering food to Wang Ran. When he came near Chen Mo, he stood on tiptoes and whispered in Chen Mo's ear.

Chen Mo paused slightly, put down the knife, raised his hand to wipe the sweat from his forehead, picked up the clothes on the grass beside him, put them on, and said, "Find two people and take them to my house."

"promise."

"Han Wu, take them and continue practicing." After saying that, Chen Mo took the Tang Dao and walked home.

Chen's living room.

He was obviously only detained for three days, but when Wang Ran was brought to Chen Mo, he felt as if he had been in prison for several years. He was a little depressed and his eyes were bloodshot, as if he hadn't slept for many days.

Chen Mo was not surprised by this. Not many people in the small black room could withstand it. Especially since he was a nobleman like Wang Ran. He had been well-dressed and well-fed since he was a child. He was able to resist for three days when his hands and feet were dislocated. It was already good. .

"Let me formally meet you. My name is Chen Mo." Chen Mo handed Wang Ran a white-flour steamed bun.
