Traveling to the future, the story with the orc king

Chapter 20 Long Yan leaves, Xiancao Pavilion

The morning sun shines through the gaps in the leaves, creating patches of mottled light and shadow. The breeze gently brushes across my cheeks, bringing a touch of fresh air.

Lin Ziyu took a deep breath, savoring the beauty of the morning air. He turned to the people around him and said, "The morning air is so nice!" Then he smiled and suggested, "Let's go, Fluffy Balloon. Let's go stroll along the streets of Lincheng and see what's so special about this place called Medicine City."

The plush ball jumped down from the roof and landed accurately in Lin Ziyu's arms. "Boy, are you planning to release the dragon boy today?"

"Yeah, yes." Lin Ziyu looked down at the plush ball in his arms, feeling a bit mixed. He couldn't help but feel a sense of loss at the thought of not being able to see the mysterious and handsome Long Yan again. The shopping trip he had originally planned was now lacking in interest.

The plush ball seemed to sense Lin Ziyu's mood changes. It stretched out its little paw and gently patted Lin Ziyu's hand, comforting him: "Don't be sad, kid. I'll go shopping with you later to cheer you up."

Lin Ziyu forced a smile and stroked the furry ball's head to express his gratitude.

So, Lin Ziyu held the plush ball in his arms, and Xiaosen followed behind him, and they walked out of the Lin Mansion together.

They first found an empty corner, and then Lin Ziyu asked Mao Rongtuanzi to carefully check whether there were any surveillance devices or other people's sight around. After receiving Mao Rongtuanzi's affirmative answer, Lin Ziyu confidently brought Long Yan out of the space.

After Long Yan came out, he didn't say anything, but just looked at Lin Ziyu quietly, his eyes full of complicated emotions. Lin Ziyu didn't say anything either, he looked at Long Yan silently, feeling a little reluctant and helpless.

After a while, Lin Ziyu broke the silence: "This is Lincheng." He paused and then said, "Goodbye!" After saying this, Lin Ziyu turned around and left without looking back at Long Yan.

Watching Lin Ziyu's retreating figure, the dragon pattern between Long Yan's eyebrows flickered. He thought: There's plenty of storage space, but not much room for people. He smiled mysteriously and muttered to himself, "We'll meet soon, my contracted partner." Long Yan turned and left.

Lin Ziyu strolled along the street, clutching his stuffed bun. The surrounding architecture was unique and quaint. The street was lined with stalls and shops displaying a dazzling array of medicinal herbs, elixirs, and spiritual plants. The air was filled with a light, herbal aroma, a refreshing feeling.

People were busy and orderly moving through the streets, some were buying medicinal herbs, and some were bargaining with stall owners.

Lin Ziyu observed everything around him with curiosity, stopping from time to time to ask questions about the medicinal herbs. He was full of interest in these magical plants and wanted to learn more about their properties and uses, and he was gradually attracted by everything.

They continued walking forward, gradually entering the core area of Medicine City. The shops here were larger and more luxuriously decorated. Some even had dedicated alchemy rooms, offering customized pill-making services.

Lin Ziyu chose a shop called "Xiancao Pavilion" and walked in. A young clerk greeted Lin Ziyu warmly. "Welcome, dear guest. I'm Xiao Wu, a clerk. What can I do for you?"

Lin Ziyu smiled and asked, "Do you have any special medicinal seeds in your store?"

The clerk, Xiao Wu, was taken aback for a moment. Few people bought herbal seeds in Lincheng; each herbal shop kept and grew its own seeds. Still, he smiled and replied, "We have a variety of herbal seeds in our store. I wonder what kind of herbal seeds you find special."

After thinking for a moment, Lin Ziyu asked, "What kinds of medicinal seeds do you have in your store? Can you give me a detailed introduction?"

The clerk, Xiao Wu, nodded quickly and replied, "Okay, please follow me." He then led Lin Ziyu to the back of the store. As they walked, he patiently explained, "Sir, since the demand for medicinal herb seeds is relatively small, we usually place them deeper in the store."

Lin Ziyu followed closely behind, carefully observing the shop. The shop was quite large, with shelves neatly lined with a wide variety of medicinal herbs, finished pills, and other items, and numerous customers milling about. At this moment, a subtle voice reached Lin Ziyu's ears: "Xiao Wu, how come you can't even judge people?! He's here to buy medicinal seeds, and you're actually taking him to see them? What a waste of time! Why not just tell him we don't have them?"

Hearing this, Lin Ziyu couldn't help but frown, thinking that no matter where he went, he always seemed to run into people like this. Xiao Wu, the shop assistant leading the way, froze, apparently having heard what had just been said. He continued walking forward with Lin Ziyu, explaining quietly, "Sir, I'm sorry you overheard that. The person who spoke is a relative of our owner."

After hearing his words, Lin Ziyu couldn't help but frowned and asked with a slightly dissatisfied tone: "Isn't he afraid of offending people?"

The clerk, Xiao Wu, looked up and carefully examined Lin Ziyu, then replied cautiously, "Sir, this is the Lin family's pharmacy in Lincheng." Seeing that Lin Ziyu was still confused, Xiao Wu explained, "In Lincheng, no one dares to have any opinions about the Lin family!"

Lin Ziyu frowned slightly. He hadn't expected the Lin family to have such a great influence in this medicine city. Xiao Wu brought Lin Ziyu to a row of shelves filled with various packaged medicinal seeds.

"These are the common medicinal seeds in our store, such as ginseng, Atractylodes macrocephala, Astragalus membranaceus, Poria cocos, Polygonum multiflorum, etc." Xiao Wu introduced them one by one.

Lin Ziyu carefully checked but didn't find the special seeds he needed. He was a little disappointed that all the medicinal seeds here were available, but he still politely thanked Xiao Wu.

"It's okay. If you have specific seeds you want, you can tell me and I can keep an eye out for them for you." Xiao Wu said enthusiastically.

Lin Ziyu nodded, sighing inwardly. Perhaps he could only rely on himself to find it. He said goodbye to Xiao Wu and was about to leave with the plush ball in his arms. He heard Qi Zhang's voice again: "Look, you didn't buy anything... Xiao Wu, from now on, you won't have to specially entertain such a bumpkin."

After hearing these words, Lin Ziyu narrowed his eyes and looked over, seeing that everyone around him looked disgusted. He turned around, looked at Xiao Wu coldly, and said in a low but firm voice, "Call your shopkeeper here." Xiao Wu's face immediately became embarrassed, and his eyes revealed a hint of nervousness and uneasiness. He stammered, "Guest... Guest, please don't go to the shopkeeper."

"No need, I just want to meet your boss." Lin Ziyu's attitude was extremely firm and he would not allow any doubt.
