I Have Medicine Chapter 68

Gongyi Tianheng seed to hesitate a little before putting on a look as if he had an epiphany: “Don’t tell it’s sothing exclusive?”

The manager also smiled: “The young master is a kindred spirit.”

Tianheng faintly shook his head, leaving no room to be the subject of ridicule: “I’m only slightly knowledgeable about such things.”

The manager lowered his voice: “Then?”

Tianheng gave an unconstrained smile: “Please lead the way.”

The manager gave another knowing smile.

Gu Zuo watched this misdirection and his heart gave a helpless sigh.

It was obvious just from following this guy. He’d long figured out that he had so secrets. But now... He felt that when he accompanied this surrogate big brother in the future, the chances to scam others certainly weren’t small.

Gu Zuo’s acting skills still needed tempering.

Afterwards, the manager didn’t speak any empty words. He directly walked out the door and called soone to co in and help him watch the store. anwhile, he walked to a corner and tapped the wall in several random places. As a result, it was actually the floor which split open and revealed a hole. The darkness would terrify a person.

Without the slightest hesitation, Gongyi Tianheng followed the manager.

Gu Zuo paused, but chose to believe in Tianheng.

The tunnel entrance was inlayed with stairs, so it was still very reliable.

Regardless if it was Gu Zuo or Gongyi Tianheng, they had both cultivated to a degree where their keen senses couldn’t be fooled by this smidgen of darkness. As they descended, they didn’t feel it was hard to find their footing.

This manager really wasn’t a swindler, and the staircase wasn’t long. After one hundred or so steps, they reached the end. At this ti, the manager each give of them a black cloak. After they put it on, it enveloped them from head to toe.

There was a sliding door ahead of them. After the manager slid it open, light imdiately shone through. Of course, this light was also very dim. If one didn’t focus their eyesight, then even the shadows of a crowd of people wouldn’t be seen clearly.

Behind the door was an expansive room. Inside were very many open stalls which had all kinds of strange things on display. As for the people who set up those stalls, they were also similarly draped in black cloaks. It actually made it hard for soone to distinguish who was who, and it was beyond one’s capabilities to guess the other’s ident.i.ty.

The manager who brought these people here considered his job done and withdrew. He simply ntioned a few sentences: “This here is a private market, which is coordinated between our stores. There are very many people from...” His words were vague, “...different places. They bring their ‘regional specialties’ to trade with others. It’s just that golden banknotes can’t be used here. Everything’s mostly done by bartering. The two of you also need to be cautious. If you break the rules, it won’t be good.”

Tianheng nodded slightly: “Rest a.s.sured, manager. We’ll take heed.”

Then, the manager left.

Gu Zuo’s sight had started searching through those booths long ago.

He concentrated his psychic power in his eyes and he surprisingly felt that anything in the room would co into complete focus the mont he looked at it. Everything was seen clearly... This was probably another important function of his psychic power.

Currently, the things he wanted to find were naturally the two dicinal herbs he lacked for refining the Xiantian Pill.

If he could find them, then he could pick the first thod of refining the Xiantian Pill. He wouldn’t need to make Tianheng constantly bleed himself. Moreover, if he could refine the pill both ways in the future, then couldn’t he make a comparison? So, with respect to finding dicinal herbs, he would still be very active.

Not long after, Gu Zuo’s line of sight hovered over a certain booth.

There were several piles which were separated into quite a large amount of herbs. While the great majority were already in a half-desiccated state where their conditions weren’t so good, they could still definitely be used.

What was even more important was that among those dicinal herbs, there was a pile of several dozens of stalks of dicinal herbs needed for the Xiantian Pill!

Gu Zuo’s heart nearly shouted with ecstasy!

However, he didn’t get ahead of himself. After he discovered them, the first reaction he gave was actually to focus his mind and report the good news to Tianheng: Big brother, I’ve found the Soaring Sky Gra.s.s!

Gongyi Tianheng gave a slight pause before transferring his voice: Where?

Gu Zuo promptly pointed out the location of the vendor’s booth that had the herbs.

After thinking things over, Tianheng nodded his head: Ah Zuo, don’t talk for a while. Also, don’t look too eager.

Gu Zuo understood that the reason was for slashing the prices. Holding his breath and paying rapt attention was his earnest response.

Afterwards, Tianheng first took Gu Zuo along to walk about the other booths.

He crouched down and inquired about one of the main ingredients for refining the Ageless Pill: “Brother, how much for this dicinal herb?”

That person behind the vendor’s booth should’ve been very young. After checking the herb, he said: “Wild beast materials, martial skills, other dicinal herbs, dicinal pills I need...All are okay. I don’t accept golden banknotes, but I’ll take actual gold.”

In front of him were very many categories of things. In addition to the main ingredient for the Ageless Pill, there were likewise martial skills, wild beast materials, and so on. However, there weren’t any dicinal pills.

Gongyi Tianheng slightly muttered, and secretly transmitted his voice to Gu Zuo.

Gu Zuo coordinated with his actions and his thoughts promptly turned. After Tianheng spread out his hand, the previously acc.u.mulated high grade Rejuvenation Pills that weren’t all sold were taken out in a bottle.

They only supplied this kind of high grade Rejuvenation Pill to the Ghost Division. With the selling price of fifty gold per pill and whose dicinal effects were seven to eight tis better than low grade pills, although they couldn’t compare to the top grade pills’ ten fold effects, it was still a very good healing dicinal pill. The key point was it was applicable to all martial artists who were Xiantian and below!

— During this ti, the eve of the Hundred Countries Tournant, wouldn’t having a dicinal pill with such great effects be a big benefit?

Tianheng pushed the dicine bottle forwards and used his sleeve cuff to point at the pile of the Ageless Pill’s main ingredient: “The effective strength of these Rejuvenation Pills is eight tis that of common Rejuvenation Pills. They’re worth fifty gold per pill. This bottle containing three pills in exchange for those dicinal herbs.”

Gu Zuo silently calculated.

One hundred fifty gold...Twenty eight stalks of the main ingredient... One cauldron of Ageless Pills produces nine pills. A low grade pill is fifty gold, mid grade is one hundred gold, and high grade is two hundred gold... Each cauldron only needs one stalk of that main ingredient.

En, how could this be a loss?

That young martial artist wasn’t too convinced. After he heard this, he hesitated a little: “This pill of yours, does it really have such a dicinal effect?”

Tianheng was cool and collected: “It’s up to you to believe or not.”

The young martial artist hesitated for a while, but made the exchange in the end.

Although the dicinal herbs were precious, the Hundred Countries Tournant was even more important to him. Under the prerequisite of hiding one’s ident.i.ty, to make an exchange for genuinely useful things all depended on one’s discerning judgnt.

Just as he uncorked the bottle to look inside, when he thought about the the pills inside compared to Rejuvenation Pills, their appearances were even fuller and the pill fragrance was even richer. They didn’t seem to be fake.

So he grit his teeth and bet on it!

Tianheng said in a drawn-out voice: “You’ll be glad about your decision.”

After he finished speaking, he waved his sleeve and the small pile of dicinal herbs on that booth naturally vanished.

This was Gu Zuo seeing a crucial point, and his coordination with Tianheng was flawless.

After biding their ti here, Gu Zuo once again followed Tianheng as they visited several more vendors, and similarly exchanging several useful dicinal herbs. In the sa way, since basically everything brought here wasn’t too common, they often used varied amounts of Rejuvenation Pills in exchange.

In any case, the cloaks concealed them, and everyone didn’t know each other’s ident.i.ties. And the Rejuvenation Pills here also didn’t cause any trouble.

The two of them handled matters accordingly. The dicinal pills in hand, however, drew the attention of many people.

After Gu Zuo and Tianheng transmitted their thoughts, this big brother’s intentions were clear. He wanted to make things conspicuous and inconspicuous... Everyone knew that what was conspicuous here was that he had this kind of dicinal pill. Since he dared to talk nonsense with so many people, there was a ninety nine percent chance that those were the real deal. And what was inconspicuous was that through his brazen shopping spree for dicinal herbs, there wasn’t any other purpose beyond preventing anyone from noticing the Xiantian Pill’s herbs. This was about lowering the risks.

Gu Zuo himself certainly wouldn’t have imagined such things. Since he had soone to help him do the thinking, Gu Zuo could naturally act without any delays and followed Tianheng round and around.

Just like every ti previously, Gongyi Tianheng didn’t let him down.

It could be said that the Soaring Sky Gra.s.s was uniquely useful to Gu Zuo. However, as far as that martial artist who brought it was concerned, one could only say it was relatively precious.

Just as Gongyi Tianheng foreshadowed, the vendor owner wanted to barter with them when they ca over. In addition, after paying with three Rejuvenation Pills, that martial artist only hesitated for a mont before agreeing in a straightforward manner.

Gu Zuo saw this and could only inwardly exclaim in his heart: Sure enough, big brother is an unscrupulous businessman!

However, he could only swallow this sentence of admiration down into his belly. He didn’t dare focus his thoughts in his mind. Otherwise, if he wasn’t careful, it would be transferred to Tianheng... That was indeed “too horrible to contemplate.”

After bartering for the Soaring Sky Gra.s.s, Gongyi Tianheng continued to gloss over its innate qualities by making a few more rounds and exchanged for a few more dicinal herbs. The herbs included those that left those martial artists in doubt. If Tianheng saw an herb and found it sowhat interesting, then he’d simply barter for it.

This series of actions basically had him visiting all the stalls that carried dicinal herbs. It truly revealed his big spending, which was very eye-catching.

Gu Zuo was a little sullen now.

Once they were done, it should be unlikely for them to be tailed by others, right?

That was a very serious problem.

At the sa ti, the nurous martial artists who were bartering in private were very interested in the two.

Continuously using dicinal pills in their trades... In the end, how many did they have on hand? Was it possible that they simply brought their own dicine shop over?

However, Gongyi Tianheng naturally wasn’t going to give them the answers to these questions.

Afterwards, Tianheng turned around and brought Gu Zuo to leave this place. Those snooping in the back were all left behind.

...Certainly, he wouldn’t deliberately flaunt the dicinal pills he took out. It was rely that they were present just at the right ti. It was inevitable for him to seize the opportunity to make so arrangents.

Gu Zuo was puzzled in his heart, and asked: Big brother still has so plans?

Tianheng smiled slightly, and answered him: Wait until the Hundred Countries Tournant starts. If the people on our side receive injuries, we can’t turn a blind eye. If it was only you and using these dicinal pills, it really would be too dazzling. Now that all these people have them, when the ti cos to rationalize what happened, it’ll be very easy to do so.

Gu Zuo understood.

To put it bluntly, it was still about obscuring the facts and confusing others. It was precisely for the sake of concealing their own peculiarities.

Now he realized that as more ti pa.s.sed, it would soon beco impossible to distribute the dicinal pills he refined. And if he needed to distribute them, it was especially necessary for him to make preparations in advance.

He would always have to lower the risks as much as possible...
