Taming Beasts and Cultivating Immortality from Two Realms

Chapter 29: Immortal Rumors
"That's not necessary." Chen Beiwu reached out to support Mo Li: "You've already paid."

Mo Li stood there in a daze.

When did she ever reward the adults? Isn't it true that the more she owes them a favor, the more she owes them?
"It takes a certain medicine to treat typhoid fever. I'll go get some and come over to treat you tomorrow." Chen Beiwu turned and left, leaving Mo Li hesitant to speak.

When Chen Beiwu returned to the training room, he opened his eyes and saw Tiedan looking listless.

"Why, you still can't learn it?" he laughed.

Tiedan barked three times in a row.

Chen Beiwu's expression changed: "You mean there's not enough spiritual energy in the training room, and I can't find the feeling of training at all?"

Tiedan nodded.

Some things can never be undone once you've experienced them!

It didn’t feel that the spiritual energy at home was thin before, but after following its owner out hiking, Tiedan felt as if it was living in a spiritual paradise.

Let alone practicing the Heavenly Dog Eating the Sun Sutra, it doesn't even want to move now, let alone stay at home.

Chen Beiwu glanced at it and said: "Okay, I'll take you there later. You just stay at home now."

Upon hearing this, Tiedan immediately perked up.

After going out, Chen Beiwu Yufeng ran towards the comprehensive industrial zone near the back mountain of Pingchen Township.

There are four small-scale mechanized factories inside the comprehensive industrial zone, namely the talisman paper factory, the array plate factory, the iron forging factory and the pharmaceutical factory.

These factories produce large quantities of talisman paper, formation plates, fine iron and medicinal materials every day, supporting the GDP of the entire Pingchen Township.

The owner of the comprehensive industrial zone is from Pingchen Township, also surnamed Chen. If the cultivators in the township want to buy spiritual materials to learn the four arts of cultivation, they usually go to the industrial zone to buy them, so that they can enjoy preferential prices.

If Chen Beiwu remembered correctly, typhoid fever, a disease that only ordinary people can suffer from, can be cured with just one dose of [Qufeng San].

Chen Beiwu found the factory market with ease and walked towards the last pharmacy.

The inside of the drugstore is not big, and both sides are filled with simple white medicine bags, emitting a strong medicinal fragrance.

Obviously, the herbs stuffed in the white medicine bag were all cheap goods sold wholesale, not even entry-level exotic herbs.

Above the central counter of the drugstore is a glass display cabinet, which displays various first-level exotic herbs in various shapes.

The gilded electronic screen outside the display cabinet kept flashing, showing the names and prices of these medicinal herbs one by one.

As soon as Chen Beiwu entered the door, the bell on the eaves of the drugstore began to tinkle gently, making a sound.

"Hello, fellow Taoist. Is there anything I can help you with?" A slightly overweight middle-aged monk walked to the counter.

Chen Beiwu: "Do you have any Qufeng Powder for sale here?"

"Qufengsan?" The middle-aged monk was a little surprised.

In the past, mortals needed to take medicine to cure typhoid fever, but as the compulsory immortal cultivation education of the Immortal Alliance gradually became popular, more and more immortal cultivators emerged on Tianyuan Star, and the physical fitness of their offspring born with mortals was greatly enhanced.

Even a mortal without spiritual roots who cannot practice cultivation can have a lifespan of nearly a hundred years.

Things are different now. Typhoid fever is no longer a serious illness for ordinary people. Even if you accidentally contract it, you only need to endure it for a week or two and then recover on your own.

As a result, Qufengsan, a low-grade elixir with a single function used to treat typhoid fever, became increasingly unpopular.

The owner of the pharmacy has been running the shop for so long, but this is the first time someone has come to buy Qufeng San.

"Yes, they are for sale. One set of Qufeng Powder costs two spirit hairs. If you buy 100 sets in bulk at one time, you can get a 20% discount, which costs 20 low-grade spirit stones." said the middle-aged monk.

"Two sets are enough."

Because typhoid fever is contagious, Chen Beiwu bought an extra pair to prevent Mo Li from getting infected and having to make another trip.

"Okay." The monk nodded and skillfully picked up herbs from various white medicine bags and prepared them.

As he picked up his medicine bag while checking out, Chen Beiwu suddenly caught a glimpse of a message popping up on the screen. [Buying all types of second-tier spiritual medicines at high prices. Negotiable, absolutely generous!]

"Boss, do you also buy spiritual medicines here?" Chen Beiwu asked curiously.

"Of course I will." The boss became enthusiastic. "My fellow Taoist, what elixir have you devised?"

"Do you accept all second-level spiritual medicines?" he asked.

"We'll buy them all, but the prices of some spiritual medicines fluctuate greatly."

The boss understood what he meant and raised three fingers. "We at Baiyaozhai can buy some second-level spiritual herbs with legitimate origins at a high price, but for spiritual herbs with less clear origins, we have to bear some risks, so we have to reduce the price by 20% to 30%. "

"It's so dark!" Chen Beiwu thought to himself.

The purchase price of spiritual medicine in the second-hand market itself is 80% off. If the price is further reduced by 20% to 30%, the purchase price will almost fall to half of the selling price on the official website of the Immortal Alliance.

Instead of selling the second-level elixir at a loss at this price, he might as well take it himself.

"I see." Chen Beiwu left the pharmacy without looking back, and bought a piece of spirit-testing paper at the talisman shop next door for five spirit hairs.

……

The next morning.

As soon as Chen Beiwu pushed the door open, he saw Mo Li and his daughter kneeling on the ground and kowtowing together.

"Thank you for saving me, sir!"

Chen Beiwu did not stop him this time.

If kneeling down to express gratitude can make the father and daughter feel better, then let them kneel down if they want to.

"Sir, this is for you." Mo Li stood up and took out the slightly warm silver from his arms.

"This is the money I used to buy the Qingjing exotic herb. Why, do you want to take the herb back?" Chen Beiwu asked deliberately.

"No, sir, I don't want grass." Mo Li was anxious.

The reason why she shamelessly accepted the money from her savior was to raise enough money for her father's medical treatment.

Now that her father has recovered from his illness, she is too embarrassed to take so much silver.

But Mo Li was not good at speaking, and when she saw Chen Beiwu's flat refusal, she didn't know what to say to explain for a moment.

"Okay, I know what you mean." Chen Beiwu waved his hand and looked into the distance. "I don't care about this little bit of silver. Just keep it safe."

Mo Li stared at Chen Beiwu blankly, her pretty face slightly blushing as she nodded.

……

A strange thing happened in Shuanghe Village recently.

Two days ago, the girl from the Mo family brought a stranger back to the village, and the village chief knelt down in public and called him an immortal.

In this regard, the villagers of Shuanghe Village were half-believing and half-doubting, but did not dare to refute it.

There are three reasons.

One reason was that the man was too handsome. When he had nothing to do, he would lie on the bluestone under the locust tree with a black dog, and fall asleep listening to the sound of reading coming from the village school. He didn't need to eat, drink, defecate or urinate like an immortal, and occasionally he would disappear for a while without anyone noticing.

I heard from the village chief that the immortal has returned to heaven!
Second, an old Mo man in the west of the village fell seriously ill and was about to die in a few days, but he recovered the next day after the immortal appeared.

Third, the village chief strictly ordered that no one should disturb the immortals. Violators would be severely punished, their farmland would be confiscated, and they would be expelled from Shuanghe Village.

"Teacher, teacher. Are there really immortals in this world?" In the private school, a little kid stood up and asked a question, his eyes always looking out the window.

The old tutor frowned and knocked on the podium with his ruler: "There are no immortals in the world. You are at the age of studying now, so don't ask about anecdotes."
