Secular world: My destiny has no taboos

Chapter 120 119: Foot Treatment

"Shilin Dahe Township, Leihuo Tianxingding..."

"Dahe Township, Tianxingding!" Lin Beixuan placed his hands on the stone table, frowned slightly, and then nodded.

"Got it. I'll be back within the stipulated time."

"Very good!" Xiao Zizai looked at Lin Beixuan with appreciation.

"In fact, if you can find materials of legendary quality during this period, you can give them to me to smelt into your weapon. However, I cannot guarantee what changes will happen to your weapon by then."

"Legendary quality materials?" Lin Beixuan's eyes lit up slightly.

Who doesn't want to make their weapons better and better, especially in the chaotic world of the secular world where there are so many tricks and schemes? All kinds of funeral instruments and Taoist tools have mysterious abilities, and there is also the Weapon Legend Atlas, which contains a collection of magical weapons from all over the world.

What you learn is important, but a handy weapon can also greatly improve your survival rate in the secular world.

Moreover, the prince does not need to worry about his weapons being exploded after his death. As long as the things in the bag are numerous and diverse enough and he is not too unlucky, it will be difficult to get his weapons exploded after his death.

Xiao Zi was blowing smoke rings, and the gray-white smoke obscured his old face from time to time. "Legendary quality materials, as the name suggests, are materials that can be used to forge legendary quality weapons. The more legendary quality materials are added, the higher the quality of the forged weapon will be, and the stronger it will be!"

"Of course, I'm just saying. Legendary quality materials are rare in the world. It depends on your strength and fate. If you are lucky enough to find it, it will be your chance and also your weapon's chance."

Xiao Zizai grinned with a mouthful of white teeth, and that smile made Lin Beixuan feel strange.

What exactly is this old man planning?
Are you planning to use the materials I provided to forge a legendary weapon?
Although he was confused, Lin Beixuan took the other party's words to heart.

The other party established the Samadhi Fire House in Anle County in order to train craftsmen and create magical weapons that would be included in the legendary weapon atlas, while his idea was to have a handy weapon. The two of them hit upon the same idea and achieved mutual benefit.

"I've made a note of it. If I have a chance, I will try to search for the legendary forging material." Lin Beixuan stood up and said goodbye to Xiao Zizai, planning to go to Wumeng Mountain today to look for Starry Sky Meteorite Iron.

Zeng Daniu watched Lin Beixuan sit down and leave in a hurry not long after. After a little hesitation, he looked at his master with a strange expression.

"Why did you tell him about the legendary material, making him think about it?"

"He is not a disciple of the Divine Craftsmen, so he doesn't know how difficult it is to obtain legendary materials. But don't you know that once he has this idea in his mind, he will definitely find ways to find legendary materials? I was just going to forge a Taoist soldier for him, but you made it so much more difficult. How much effort and materials will we have to spend then!"

As the apprentice of one of the master craftsmen, Lianhuo Zangzhen Sanren, Zeng Daniu naturally knew that in order to successfully forge a perfect weapon, not only did they need the raw materials provided by the buyer, they also had to add a lot of things themselves, spending a lot of time and energy.

These were things that the experts were reluctant to say. They would just ask for more compensation from the buyer. However, their own master asked a kid who had not yet started his own business to find materials of legendary quality. This not only cheated the other party, but also cheated their own family.

"You know nothing!"

Xiao Zi's muscular body trembled a few times, and he slapped Zeng Daniu hard on the head, sending him flying.

"Why can't I tell the truth?" Zeng Daniu covered his head which was hurt by the beating, looking aggrieved.

"You've been following me for so long, but you haven't learned a thing from me. Don't say you're my apprentice when you leave."

"Stop talking nonsense and follow me to start the furnace!"

"We're going to practice now? That kid hasn't found all his stuff yet. If he doesn't come back by the time, wouldn't it be a waste of effort?"

"Then we'll just add the materials ourselves until he comes back."

Xiao Zizai walked into the workshop without looking back. The muscles on his back looked like a sculpture, much broader and more powerful than Zeng Daniu's. The lines on his back did not have the reasonable curves like those of a normal person, but were exaggeratedly bulging and knotted, extremely strange, like a dragon and a tiger fighting each other, exuding a wild and dangerous aura.

"Starting today."

"Open the furnace and train the soldiers!"

……

Coming out of the dark and narrow passage, Lin Beixuan kept thinking about the preparations he needed to make next.

The two immortals Huang and Liu were born as mountain monsters. Before they came to Anle County, they had been entrenched in the nearby mountains for many years. In fact, they had accumulated quite a lot of power.

If something is not even in their treasure house, then it must be really rare.

"First, go to Wumeng Mountain to get the Starry Sky Meteorite Iron, and then go to Dahe Township and Tianxingding to find the remaining two materials. As for the legendary quality materials, you can ask for information on the way."

Lin Beixuan first went to the Huangxian Temple to borrow a fairly good quality broadsword, and then came to another place in Anle County that should not be easily provoked - Laonongtang.

Of course, we have to be fully prepared for this trip to Wumeng Mountain.

It is always better to have a machete for self-defense than to fight with bare hands. He is not one of those warriors who practice martial arts and train his body. The sharper the knife, the safer he will be.

Apart from weapons, the only things left are medicines.

Although the body will recover after death, Lin Beixuan is not willing to use his own life span to heal his wounds, so some medicine must be prepared before setting off.

When he walked into the Old Farmer's Hall, he was greeted by the same doctor who had treated his hand injury before. The other party obviously still remembered Lin Beixuan. After taking a look at Lin Beixuan's right hand, he couldn't help but sigh.

"Young Master, your injuries healed really quickly."

"It's all thanks to your good medicine."

After a brief exchange of pleasantries, Lin Beixuan directly stated his purpose, intending to ask the other party to provide him with some medicines for treating external injuries and detoxification.

As for why there is no need for internal injury medicine... Lin Beixuan feels that he will not be able to wait until the time comes to use these internal injury medicines.

The wild world is full of dangers, and it is even more difficult for ordinary people to travel at night. In fact, evil spirits will basically not cause any internal injuries to people, but will kill people directly.

Upon learning of Lin Beixuan's needs, the doctor didn't waste any words and directly asked the waiter beside him to get suitable medicines from the medicine cabinet. However, when Lin Beixuan paid the bill and was about to leave, the doctor's gaze shifted to Lin Beixuan's feet and suddenly spoke.

"Sir, please stay!"

Lin Beixuan stopped when he heard this, not understanding why the doctor suddenly called him.

"I see that your foot is not born defective, but was caused by a blow later in life..."

"Doctor, do you have any way to cure it?" Lin Beixuan looked up in surprise. Having stayed in the secular world for such a long time, he had actually gradually gotten used to his lame leg. He originally thought that he was born with a disability, but he didn't expect that there could be a cure.

Who wants to be a cripple, walking up and down? Since the other party asked this question, it means there is a chance of cure. The young doctor frowned and stared at Lin Beixuan's feet: "We need to see whether it can be cured or not."

"Thank you!"

Lin Beixuan sat back in the chair and stretched out his disabled foot.

"May I know the doctor's name?" Lin Beixuan asked while the other person was examining his feet.

"My doctor's name is Qu Songshou. He is a disciple of Jiu Ming Zhenren of Shennong Bencao Hall in Qingzhou. He has returned from his studies to benefit the people of Anle County." Before Qu Songshou, the doctor, could speak, the waiter beside him introduced him with a proud look on his face.

"So Doctor Qu is a disciple of Shennong Hall. My apologies!" Lin Beixuan clasped his fists and bowed.

In fact, he had heard from the manager when he came back to treat his injured hand last time that Shennong Herbal Hall was the largest medical treatment center in Qingzhou, and that it had the ability to snatch lives from the hands of the King of Hell. Seeing that the guy praised his own doctor so much, Lin Beixuan had no choice but to agree.

"The servant's exaggerated remarks are not worth mentioning."

Qu Songshou shook his head and smiled bitterly. Although he had heard many compliments from others, he still felt embarrassed.

Watching Lin Beixuan put his feet, which had taken off his shoes and socks, on a low stool beside him, Qu Songshou leaned down slightly, picked up the bamboo stick handed to him by the waiter, and gently tapped his calves and ankles.

"Do you feel anything?"

"I can feel it, but the feeling in my ankle is slightly weaker than in my calf." Lin Beixuan answered at the right time.

Qu Songshou nodded, took out a medicine bottle from his arms, and poured the powder inside on Lin Beixuan's feet.

When the powder touched Lin Beixuan's feet, it immediately spread out, as if countless tiny insects began to drill into Lin Beixuan's feet.

"How do you feel now?" Qu Songshou asked again.

"Itchy and painful." Lin Beixuan frowned slightly. He could feel that the bones and muscles in his left foot were being torn. The powder not only penetrated into his flesh and blood, but also gnawed at it.

Seeing that Lin Beixuan remained calm even though he was enduring tremendous pain, Qu Songshou's eyes showed admiration. Then he put his fingers on Lin Beixuan's feet. Those powder-like insects strangely emerged from the flesh and blood and climbed onto Qu Songshou's fingers.

"The lameness of the young master is indeed not a congenital disability, but it was caused by being stepped on and broken without timely treatment."

"It can be cured!" Qu Songshou said slowly, "But you may need to break this leg again, and then let my bone-building worm heal it."

"How long will it take?" Lin Beixuan frowned. He didn't want to delay his progress towards Wumeng Mountain.

"If you break your leg now, I can heal it now, but this can only make you return to normal temporarily. If you want to recover completely, you need to take some medicine and recuperate yourself." Qu Songshou smiled, and the bone-building worm on his finger changed into various shapes as he fiddled with it.

"As long as it doesn't waste time."

Lin Beixuan's gaze stayed on those bone-building insects for a moment, then he picked up a bench and smashed it hard on his feet until his flesh and blood were blurred and bones protruded from his ankles.

"Huh... Is this okay?"

"can."

Qu Songshou looked at Lin Beixuan in shock. He didn't expect that the other party would be so cruel to him. Apart from a slight frown, there was no other expression on his face. He didn't even cry out in pain.

It's ruthless!

He no longer hesitated. The bone-building worm on his fingertips turned into quicksand and drilled into the gaps in the flesh and bones created by Lin Beixuan.

Then, the tiny bone-building insects were seen gluing themselves into the broken bone spurs, repairing the injured and cracked foot bones at an astonishing speed, just like a spider weaving a web, stitching the flesh and bones together.

"In addition to studying the pharmacy of herbs, Shennong Herbal Hall also studies the insects that grow with these special herbs. This bone-building insect is one of them. It is specially cultivated to detect bone problems in patients and can also repair broken bones."

Seeing Lin Beixuan's surprised expression, Qu Songshou explained: "Shennong's Herbal Hall, Lingshu Suwenlu, Jinkui Ting, Miao Guishou... Our school studies herbs, so we also make use of those companion insects and snakes. Please don't be surprised, young master."

Lin Beixuan waved his hand when he heard that. There are even evil spirits in the secular world. What's the big deal about learning some tricks of using insects after studying the art of medicine for so many years? So he didn't think there was anything wrong with using insects to build bones. Instead, he felt a little more interested in it.

If I can master this skill, it will be much more convenient in the future.

No wonder when Feng Xinnan attended the dinner in this life, even though he didn't get along with the girl from the Qihuang Hall of Life and Death, he still enthusiastically approached her to establish a relationship with her and ask for medicine. These Qihuang skills can really save lives at the critical moment.

As soon as Qu Songshou showed off his skills in front of him, Lin Beixuan already felt that he was extraordinary.

In today's medical world, I'm afraid no doctor would believe that bone-building worms can repair bones in an instant.

But strictly speaking, there is actually a precedent in Xuan Country's history of adding various snakes and insects into medicine. In the eyes of those sages, everything can be used as medicine. Unfortunately, with the development of modern society, Chinese medicine has declined, and similar methods have long been replaced by Western medicine.

Many things in this secular world are actually very similar to certain things that appeared in the history of Xuan Kingdom, including the art of life and death.

While Lin Beixuan and Qu Songshou were talking, the bone-building worm had already repaired the broken bones, and now they only had to wait for the flesh and blood to heal.

And with Lin Beixuan's extraordinary blood recovery attribute, the injury on his foot would probably heal overnight, and wouldn't even affect his journey.

"The bone-building worms can only temporarily heal and repair broken bones and flesh. They will look no different from usual, but you still need to eat more bone-growing herbs to recuperate. Once you are fully healed, the bone-building worms will leave your body." Qu Songshou reminded him.

"Will they die after they leave?"

"No, after the bone-building insect leaves your body, it will look for a new spiritual herb to live with."

Lin Beixuan's eyes lit up slightly when he heard this, and he had already begun to think about cultivating a group of bone-building insects himself.

After all, no one stipulates that only those who study medicine can raise these insects. At most, you can learn some tricks of raising insects in Miaojiang, and maybe you can breed stronger ones.

Lin Beixuan stood up from the chair and took two steps forward. At first, he subconsciously retained the habit of limping, which caused him to walk up and down, but after gradually getting used to it, he could keep his shoulders straight and his feet firmly on the ground like a normal person.

"Thank you, Doctor Qu, for your skillful hands. Otherwise, I might have to wait for a while before my foot can be healed." Lin Beixuan expressed his sincere gratitude.

"It should be." Qu Songshou narrowed his eyes and smiled kindly: "The price of the bone-building insect is fifty incense coins. I will arrange the payment for you now."
