Chapter 97: Chapter 76: How to Deal with It?
Translator: 549690339
Once again back in Changning County town, it had been a full five days since he left.
Obviously, not returning for five days caused concern for Sun Siwen and Zhou Qing.
In particular, Zhou Qing almost thought that the Iron Sword Sect had traced him and found his Master, so he almost got up from the bed to look for his Master.
Fortunately, Sun Siwen was older and beca more mature, especially after becoming an official. He comforted his friend and apprentice, assuring them that there would be no problems.
Because according to Sun Siwen’s impression, when he was in Yangi Town, Lu Yuan often had records of going hunting for several days, or even several months.
Now that he hadn’t returned for five days, it was probably just because his friend had beco addicted to hunting and had forgotten about the ti.
Of course, considering the threat from the Iron Sword Sect, Sun Siwen still had so worries deep down.
Fortunately, with Lu Yuan’s return, all these concerns were dispelled.
“Brother Lu, next ti you leave for so long, rember to give us a heads up. Otherwise, soone will worry to death.” After confirming safety, Sun Siwen said this during their first eting.
“Worry to death?”
Lu Yuan looked slightly astonished and then looked his friend up and down, shook his head, and said, “That shouldn’t be the case. Brother Sun should know my habits. Going into the mountains for just a few days shouldn’t cause too much worry.”
“Who says it’s not worriso? Don’t forget that you have a debt on your back from the Iron Sword Sect.”
Sun Siwen glared at him and then said unhappily, “I am fine, but it’s the kid Xiaoqing. Seeing that his Master hadn’t returned for a few days, he was so anxious that he couldn’t even eat. He kept saying it was his fault, feeling extrely guilty.”
“Xiaoqing…” Lu Yuan was stunned, and then smiled bitterly, “I really neglected that.”
In past days, he had been all alone and carefree. Now he had forgotten that he had an apprentice.
‘Xiaoqing has just experienced the pain of losing his family, and he’s more sensitive to this. It seems that I need to pay more attention to this in the future.’
Thinking of the deceased Doctor Zhou, Lu Yuan sighed and went to find Zhou Qing.
It wasn’t easy to take in an apprentice, so he couldn’t let the kid worry himself to death.
When he saw Zhou Qing again, the boy was lying in bed, and Old Doctor Li was next to him changing his dicine.
“Xiaoqing, I heard that you haven’t been eating well these days.” Lu Yuan’s voice reached the room before he entered.
“Master!”
Upon hearing the familiar voice, Zhou Qing imdiately sat up excitedly, but then the unhealed bones acted up, and he cried out in pain.
At the sa ti, the dicine being applied to his body fell off, dropping to the bed and floor, scattering all over.
“Ah, ah, ah!” Old Doctor Li, seeing this action, was suddenly angry. He blew his beard and stared fixatedly, heartbroken, “My dicine, my dicine.
Regardless, this ti it’s your own fault, and it has nothing to do with .
You’ll have to give another five silver tales, and I’ll make you a new batch of dicine.”
The old miser was afraid he would have to add more dicine, so he quickly separated himself from the situation.
“Old Li, I’m sorry.” Zhou Qing ca to his senses and rembered what he’d done, his face flushed, and he imdiately apologized.
“It’s okay.” Lu Yuan smiled and waved his hand, then looked at Old Doctor Li, “Prepare another batch of dicine. I’ll pay for the dicine.”
“Alright, I’ll prepare it right away.” Hearing that he could earn another batch of dicine money, Old Doctor Li’s eyes lit up with joy, and he happily went to prepare it.
After Old Doctor Li left, there were only two people in the room, and Zhou Qing timidly looked at Lu Yuan, “Master, just now, just now…”
Seeing his appearance, Lu Yuan went up to him, patted Zhou Qing on the head, and comforted, “Don’t think too much, just focus on healing. From what I can see now, you’re already recovering well and can sit up by yourself.
That’s a good sign, keep at it.
Once you’re able to get out of bed and completely recover, I’ll teach you martial
-3Yi-c?
Seeing that his Master wasn’t angry, Zhou Qing’s face imdiately showed a smile, “Yes.”
Having comforted his little apprentice, Lu Yuan quickly left and started getting busy with his own business.
Returning to his own room, he briefly closed the doors and windows, sat down at the desk, and carefully took out the jade box from his chest. He placed it on the table and slowly opened the box.
The mont the lid was cracked open, a strange fragrance wafted out.
In an instant, the Inner Strength within Lu Yuan’s body beca more lively.
He suppressed the urge to imdiately cultivate his Inner Strength and examined the Blood Jade Centipede in the box with patience.
The crystal-clear centipede, like a piece of crystal, had long since lost its life. The corpse lay in the jade box, and although several days had passed, there was no sign of decay.
“How amazing.”
Seeing this scene, Lu Yuan couldn’t help but marvel.
Could it be said that this world is indeed a Martial Arts or Immortal Martial World?
Without treatnt, the corpse would not rot. This Blood Jade Centipede was indeed extraordinary, definitely a different species of bloodline.
“But, having said that, how should I deal with this corpse now?”
As he stared at the crystal-clear centipede body, Lu Yuan could not help but feel worried, unsure how to handle it.
This centipede was clearly a different species of bloodline and had great benefits for him. But because of this, he did not know how to properly utilize this mysterious creature.
“Could it be that I should simply swallow it raw, or should I boil it first, or even stir-fry it?”
After a few complaints, Lu Yuan refocused his thoughts and began to seriously consider how to handle the problem.
Firstly, swallowing raw was definitely not an option.
Although the fragrance of the centipede had been proven to be harmless and actually helps activate Inner Strength and assist in cultivation, the centipede is still one of the Five Poisons. This Blood Jade Centipede is even more extraordinary among centipedes, who knows if its body is highly toxic?
Just because the scent is harmless doesn’t an the body is harmless.
With the peculiar nature of the centipede, even a small problem could be a matter of life and death.
“So, I can’t take any risks. I have to find a proper solution and find a reasonable way to deal with the centipede. But where to find a proper solution…
Lu Yuan furrowed his brows in deep thought; his first instinct was to search through dical books.
If he could find a record of the Blood Jade Centipede in dical texts, he would naturally know how to deal with it.
Even if he couldn’t find it, by studying pharmacology, he might be able to find a suitable thod to utilize this centipede corpse.
“But searching like this is like looking for a needle in a haystack. It would be too slow to rely solely on my dical knowledge to find a feasible thod.
Although the centipede looks like it won’t decay or spoil now, who knows if it will go bad as ti drags on?
It would be a joke if the thing spoils before I can figure out a proper thod.”
So, the best choice is to find a highly skilled old doctor and ask him for a solution.”
As soon as he thought of this, an image of a greedy old doctor appeared in Lu Yuan’s mind..
