Five kinds of medicine in another world

"By the way, Elder Chang, what exactly is this thing? Why is it so small?"

Gu Shijiu stared at the small green particle in Chang Sanhao's hand and asked with a puzzled look on his face.

At this time, Zhao Hongling came forward to take a look, then said:

"Oh, I think I've seen this thing before. It should be the heart of a thousand-year-old tree."

"Well... you can say it's a thousand-year-old tree heart, but not completely. To be precise, it should be considered an eight-thousand-year-old tree heart. It's a pity that it's too small and not very useful."

Chang Sanhao sighed as he carefully looked at the green particles in his hand.

Originally, he hoped to find a larger thousand-year-old tree heart that he could sell for some money.

But now it seems that even an eight thousand year old tree heart cannot be sold at a good price because it is too small.

Suddenly, he seemed to have thought of something, turned to look at Gu Shijiu, and said:

"By the way, Nineteen, isn't your knife broken? I'll just give this to you as compensation."

Before he finished speaking, Chang Sanhao threw the thousand-year-old tree heart to Gu Shijiu.

"How can I do this? Everyone contributed, how can I take all the spoils? This is not appropriate, it really is not appropriate."

Gu Shijiu waved his hands hurriedly and refused.

"Amitabha, Mr. Gu, just accept it. It's not a rare item, and we won't lose anything."

Luo Yong said to Gu Shijiu with a smile.

"That's right, Nineteen, take it. This thing is not a good thing. I have a lot of it at home. I'm too lazy to take it."

Zhao Hongling also smiled and nodded.

"Take it. It's not worth much and it's too small. Just keep it as a souvenir. I worked so hard to find a knife and now it's gone. To be honest, I'm really sorry for you."

Chang Sanhao felt a little embarrassed. After all, he was the one who had called everyone here, and now there were heavy losses, so he also had a big part of the responsibility.

"Well, okay, I'll take it."

Seeing this, Gu Shijiu knew that it would be most appropriate for him to accept it, so he took it directly in his hand.

As soon as he got it in his hand, the thousand-year-old tree heart gave Gu Shijiu a strong feeling, which was a kind of desire, making Gu Shijiu unable to resist and want to swallow it.

“Can this thing be eaten?”

Gu Nineteen looked at the thousand-year-old tree heart in front of him and asked everyone in confusion.

Everyone was regulating their breathing, and when they heard Gu Shijiu's question, they looked at each other in confusion. Only Luo Yong smiled and said:

"Most people wouldn't take it, but if you encounter a serious injury, you can take it. How should I put it? It's a pity to take it."

As soon as Luo Yong finished speaking, Gu Shijiu nodded and put it directly into his mouth.

Luo Yong smiled and shook his head, but Zhao Hongling became interested.

"How is it, Nineteen, how does it taste? Is it delicious?"

Gu Shijiu shook his head gently, and an indescribable astringent taste filled his mouth. This taste seemed to have sharp thorns, irritating his throat and causing a slight tingling sensation.

"Hmm... it tastes bad, it tastes bitter and it stings my throat."

Gu Shijiu frowned and rubbed his throat with his hands.

Hearing Gu Shijiu say this, Zhao Hongling's originally excited expression instantly became dim. She nodded disappointedly, indicating that she understood.

However, despite the bad taste, Gu Shijiu still decided to swallow the thousand-year-old tree heart.

As the bitter substance slid down his throat, he suddenly felt a cool feeling surge into his heart like a spring.

This cool feeling quickly spread throughout his body, as if it had brought a baptism to Gu Shijiu's body. He clearly felt that his internal organs seemed to have been sublimated at this moment, and a wonderful sense of comfort arose spontaneously.

Somehow, Gu Shijiu realized that the skills in his body began to accelerate.

The obstacles and delays that may be encountered during daily operation have now disappeared without a trace, replaced by a sense of unimpeded smoothness.

As the technique flowed smoothly, Gu Shijiu's breath gradually became steady and deep. He closed his eyes, immersed in this wonderful feeling, and enjoyed the harmonious resonance between his body and mind.

Looking at Gu Shijiu's enjoyable expression, Luo Yong smiled and said to Zhao Hongling:

"Apart from the bad taste, the thousand-year-old tree heart is absolutely a good thing. It has an excellent effect on improving the speed of cultivation and improving one's body energy efficiency. It is considered a magical thing. If conditions permit, you can eat less."

When Zhao Hongling heard Luo Yong say this, she didn't know how to refute him. She could only nodded shyly and said, "I understand."

Gu Nineteen also nodded and said:

"It is indeed a good thing, but the taste is not right. I feel that my cultivation is much smoother now, and even my spirit is much better. It is worthy of being the thousand-year-old tree heart. It is a good thing, haha."

Gu Shijiu was very satisfied.

Originally he thought that the Fiery Blade was broken and he had suffered a great loss, but after feeling the effect of the thousand-year-old tree heart, Gu Shijiu said that he would be happy to buy it even if he had to use hundreds of high-level crystal stones.

"By the way, how much does a thousand-year-old tree heart usually cost?"

Gu Shijiu raised his own questions.

"Generally, an ordinary thousand-year-old tree heart is worth about 70 to 80 high-level crystals. The eight-thousand-year-old tree heart just now, although smaller, is more useful. It is estimated to cost more than 100 high-level crystals."

Chang Sanhao said with a smile.

"About the same. Maybe a little more expensive. After all, the quality of that piece does look pretty good."

Zhao Hongling was well aware of this and echoed the sentiment.

"So I just ate a hundred high-level crystals?"

Gu Shijiu was a little overwhelmed for a moment. He was just talking. Who could have known that it was really worth a hundred high-level crystal stones? It was simply fatal.

"What do you think? Otherwise, I wouldn't have called on you all to come here and fight the tree monster. Isn't it just to get a piece of tree heart to sell for money? Who would have thought that this tree monster is so weak."

"I've seen other people sell a thousand-year-old tree heart the size of a football for six or seven hundred high-level crystals. If this eight-thousand-year-old tree heart is that big, it would be worth several thousand or even tens of thousands of high-level crystals."

Chang Sanhao felt a little overwhelmed. After all, just like opening a blind box, there is always a chance of winning the jackpot, but it is not high. However, there is always hope.

Now that my hopes are dashed, it would be strange if I could feel better.

"Well, I just went to gamble and didn't win anything, that's what I mean."

Gu Nineteen said with a smile.

"Yes, that's about it. Nineteen, where are we going next?"

Chang Sanhao obviously didn't want to continue chatting, so he directly asked Gu Shijiu, who came to the secret realm for the first time.

"Where to go? Of course I'm going to take a look inside. I can't go back empty-handed."

Zhao Hongling said naturally.

Her family are all businessmen, so they naturally understand that they cannot do business at a loss.

"Okay, let's listen to Hongling and go inside to take a look."

Gu Shijiu also said with a smile, there is no such thing as too much of a good thing.
