Beast Taming: I gained the talent of a spirit pet.

Chapter 16: A Grand View of Miraculous Medicines! (Please read on!)
"Yes!"

The clerk breathed a sigh of relief, but looking at the gloomy boss, a chill ran down his spine. He nodded hurriedly, "Don't worry, boss, I'll definitely pass on the message!"

Having said that, he turned around and hurried out of the store, as if he had been chased by a dog.

Shopkeeper Xu then came to the door, stuck his head out to check, and after making sure that there was no one around, he closed the door, then went to the second floor and opened a side room.

He dragged out another wooden box from under the bed, with an iron lock on it.

Taking out the key, Manager Xu opened it.

There was also a half-foot-high wooden box inside, and the space next to it was filled with some loose silver coins and a stack of silver notes with denominations of one hundred, fifty, and twenty taels.

He took out all the silver bills and counted them, and there were exactly three hundred taels.

Shopkeeper Xu's face twitched slightly.

These are his life savings!

But then it is immediately delivered to someone else.

At this moment, just thinking about it made him feel pain in his heart, liver, and all over his body.

This is not about asking for his money, this is about asking for his life!

After a long while, Manager Xu carefully put the banknotes into his arms, locked the wooden box again, closed the door, and then came to the stairs.

Just as I was about to go downstairs, I heard faint footsteps behind me, and the footsteps were very close.

It seemed like someone was behind him at this moment!

But the shop assistants and the accountant were all in the front yard, and the only shop assistant in the shop had just been sent out by him. Apart from himself, who else could be in the shop now?

"who!"

Shopkeeper Xu's forehead was covered in cold sweat, and he suddenly felt something was wrong. Just as he was about to turn his head, he felt someone push him hard.

"what--"

Then, he lost his balance and fell down the stairs while howling.

After falling to the first floor, he was lying on the ground, motionless.

At this time, Gu Yuan walked down the stairs leisurely.

After observing it for a while, Gu Yuan reached out to check its breath and was a little surprised:
"Is this old guy so unlucky that he fell to his death?"

"It's better if he's dead. It saves me from having to do anything."

Gu Yuan did not feel any psychological burden about this. After all, this old guy was still thinking about letting Wu Xun, the leader of the Qingzhu Gang, kill him until just now.

After all, this matter started out as a result of the old guy's greed and his sinister deeds. Now he has ended up like this, it can be said that he has brought this upon himself and he deserves it!
As usual, Gu Yuan searched the body of Manager Xu.

Although he came here this time for revenge and to get rid of the trouble caused by Manager Xu, it is not his character to return empty-handed.

But when Gu Yuan found a stack of banknotes and a black iron key from Shopkeeper Xu, he couldn't help but sigh:

"Wow, three hundred taels of silver! Where did this guy get so much money? Did he dig out all the money he had saved for the coffin?"

Gu Yuan had also heard the conversation between Manager Xu and his clerk just now, and knew that the money was given to Wu Xun, the leader of the Qingzhu Gang.

The fact that he had previously killed the third leader of the Green Bamboo Gang caused quite a stir in the Green Bamboo Gang.

The man surnamed Wu suffered a great loss, but he couldn't find the culprit, so naturally he had to bite off a big piece of fat from Manager Xu as compensation.

But now, Gu Yuan got a bargain.

Gu Yuan is now very clear about one thing - he has become rich!

Three hundred taels of silver—that's a huge sum! For example.

Under normal circumstances, one tael of silver is equivalent to one thousand coins, but in reality, silver is more scarce and more valuable than copper, so on the market, one tael of silver can often be exchanged for more than one thousand one hundred coins.

One cent can buy a big bun, and two cents can buy a string of candied haws.

The purchasing power of one penny is greater than the dollar Gu Yuan had in his previous life!
In fact, during this period of time, Gu Yuan had been driving Ah Huang to keep an eye on Manager Xu. He originally just wanted to take revenge, but he didn't expect that he would have such a big unexpected gain today!

But with this money, he will definitely be able to use it when he practices martial arts.

After all, he had heard some rumors and knew that practicing martial arts was a very costly endeavor.

However, Gu Yuan was not ready to leave just like that.

Looking at the key in his hand, Gu Yuan went upstairs, opened the side room, and pulled out the wooden box from under the bed.

After opening the iron lock with the key, he saw a small pile of loose silver at the bottom of the box. A rough look showed that there were at least seventy or eighty taels of silver. Gu Yuan unceremoniously found a piece of cloth to wrap it up and prepared to take it away.

As for the wooden box in the box, after opening it, there were actually two medical books inside!
To be precise, in addition to the medical book "Xu's Medical Canon", there is also a "Great View of Miraculous Medicines".

[Tao Yun Points +7! 】

[Tao Yun Points +69! 】

Just as Gu Yuan touched the two books, prompt messages from the system panel appeared in front of him one after another.

These two books actually contain a lot of Taoist rhyme.

While Gu Yuan was delighted, he also noticed something was wrong.

After a careful inspection, I found that the former was nothing special, just an ordinary medical book, at most an old one, a medical book passed down for several generations.

The latter is a full inch thick, and its material does not seem to be simple. It is thin and soft to the touch, with a sense of toughness. Gu Yuan looked at it carefully for a moment and was surprised to find that this book was actually made of some special animal skin!

The contents inside include both text and pictures, which clearly record many magical medicines and rare flowers!

When Gu Yuan opened the first page, he saw a pattern of a strange flower. It looked like a sunflower, but it was completely red and shimmering with light.

There is also a line of small text on the side:

【Sunflower】

Grade: Eighth-grade elixir

A special spiritual flower that grows in extremely yang lands, taking five hundred years to mature. Its crimson color is used to refine yang-attributed elixirs such as the Flaming Sun Pill and the Red Eye Pill. This flower melts in water and withers in gold, requiring only jade to harvest.

Furthermore, by chance, this spiritual flower has a slight chance of surviving the millennium limit. When its petals turn pale gold, it has reached five thousand years old and is known as the Haoyang Flower, a fifth-grade spiritual medicine and one of the best for refining yang-attributed flying swords.

Below is a pattern of another elixir.

It looks like a mushroom, not big in size, but with a lush green color. On the cap, there is a pattern of a ferocious ghost face, which is vivid and looks like a real ghost face.

【Ghost Face Mushroom】

Grade: Ninth-grade elixir

This thing can only be born in a mass grave where more than a thousand people have died, or in a place of extreme darkness. It absorbs the evil energy to grow and is extremely poisonous. Ordinary creatures will die if they come into contact with it. However, as long as it is refined properly, it can also nourish the soul!
It should be noted that the root of this medicine often attracts corpse flies to lay larvae and maggots. Once it accidentally gets on the skin, the maggots will burrow into the flesh and blood, which is extremely dangerous.

【Glass Polygonatum】

Grade: Seventh-grade spiritual root

A kind of spiritual bamboo that grows in a place with pure spiritual energy. It likes cleanliness and hates dirt. It can be refined into magic weapons and instruments. Its juice can also be used to make elixirs. It is deeply loved by Buddhist practitioners.
【Thundervine】

Grade: Eighth-grade elixir
