Chapter 244: Chapter 157: Got So Good Items
He already knew the odds for items appearing in the shop: a 40% chance for crops, 30% for animals, 20% for common items, and 10% for special items.
Though this was just his estimate, it was more or less accurate.
Therefore, it was no longer a surprise for the first item to be so kind of fruit or vegetable.
But when he saw the sugarcane, his mind imdiately jumped to white sugar or brown sugar.
He didn’t know how to make white sugar; ancient thods recorded a process using a yellow clay slurry, sothing virtually no one could replicate. Brown sugar, however, was no problem.
In all his ti in this world, he had never seen white sugar. Brown sugar, on the other hand, wasn’t very expensive.
’My brown sugar supply is taken care of from now on.’
Cheng Zongyang turned to the next items.

As he looked through them one by one, a delighted expression spread across Cheng Zongyang’s face. The odds of getting good items today were clearly high.
However, when Cheng Zongyang saw the last item, he froze.
’Isn’t this a dical text from back ho in my past life? What does it an, "from the Library Pavilion of a Sect Ruins in the Wilderness World"?’
This only deepened Cheng Zongyang’s confusion about this world.
’What exactly is this world?’
If the description hadn’t ntioned a source, he might not have overthought it. After all, the shop could generate modern items too.
But now, he couldn’t help but ponder the origins of this world and how it all connected!
’Damn it! Just you wait! Sooner or later, I’ll figure this whole world out!’
He stopped overthinking it and bought all six items.
-2107 Points!
Remaining Points: 5543
After setting things up, Cheng Zongyang gazed at the solar-powered Lighting Lamp he’d hung on the wall. It bathed the entire cabin in light, making it as bright as day. It felt like he was back in his previous life.
He vividly rembered how he’d almost been driven mad by his inability to adapt when he first arrived. He’d had no choice but to force himself to adjust by working day in and day out, gradually growing accustod to it all.
Experiencing the light of a lamp again filled him with a deep sense of nostalgia.
’Finally, I don’t have to use oil lamps anymore.’
Cheng Zongyang sighed, filled with emotion. His gaze fell upon the items on the table: the Beastman Essence, the three volus of the Inner Canon of the Yellow Emperor, and the Wilderness Map.
But before he could react, a notification sound echoed through the cabin:
[Total transaction volu has reached 60,000 Points (Points spent in the Cultivation Room are not included). The Market Cabin will now undergo its third upgrade. Duration: 168 hours!]
"Fuck!"
Cheng Zongyang couldn’t help but curse.
The reason was the upgrade ti!
One hundred sixty-eight hours—that was seven days! It was getting longer every ti!
The last one took six days!
He shook his head, pushing the thought aside. A mont later, his attention turned to the three volus of the Inner Canon of the Yellow Emperor.
*Celestial Being*, *Su Wen*, *Ling Jiu*
Cheng Zongyang stared at the three books, sowhat puzzled.
’Wait a minute... if I rember correctly, doesn’t the *Inner Canon of the Yellow Emperor* only have two parts?’
He hadn’t known much about traditional Chinese dicine in his past life, but he’d at least heard of this masterpiece.
But this *Celestial Being* volu...
Full of doubt, Cheng Zongyang picked it up to take a look.
However, the classical script inside left him baffled. Fortunately, he could still understand parts of it.
Through a combination of guessing and inference, he skimd through a portion of it. The content seed to be about the correspondence between heaven and humanity, as well as thods for nourishing life.
’Could this be a Nourishing Life thod?’ Cheng Zongyang wondered.
’*Su Wen* and *Ling Jiu* discuss the relationship between the dical Dao, the Five Elents, and the human body, as well as topics like etiology and pathology.’
’Traditional Chinese dicine emphasizes the balance of Yin and Yang in the body, with the belief that prevention is better than cure. If *Celestial Being* is about thods for nourishing life, that would make sense. Does that an this is the complete set?’
He carefully put the three classics away, deciding to read them later when he had more ti.
dicine and martial arts were inseparable. Since he was now dabbling in dicine, he knew this would be useful in the future. Besides, he needed to take a closer look at this Nourishing Life thod. He had a feeling it wasn’t as simple as it seed.
Otherwise, a simple dical text shouldn’t be worth five hundred Points. Especially not one left behind in the Library Pavilion of so Sect Ruins.
Putting them away, he turned his attention to the Wilderness Map.
As he picked up the blank, animal-hide map, a notification popped up:
