The yard was very quiet, as if no one lived there.

But after she knocked, the door opened quickly.

A young man looked out, saw that it was her, and quickly opened the door.

"Uncle He, the young lady is here."

Soon, a group of people came out of the house.

In addition to He Bo and Jiang Zihong, there were two others who were two of the original five medicinal material merchants.

"Miss." Seeing her, several people bowed in unison.

Zhong Ran looked at them for a few times, thinking that they would not dare to do anything else, and walked inside.

"Are you busy?"

"Not really. Didn't the young lady tell me before that I couldn't wait to make any more ill-gotten gains? So we teamed up and opened a pharmacy, which is not bad."

Uncle He spoke carefully. The young lady had not appeared for some time, and they felt itchy all over, as if the poison was about to take effect.

Now that I see this young lady, I finally feel relieved.

Zhong Ran didn't expect that they would actually cooperate to open a pharmacy.

She sat down at the table and listened to them talk about the pharmacy for a while, then stopped paying attention.

"Have you found any good medicinal herbs?"

She is more interested in the best medicinal herbs.

What's more, she is not short of money now.

No, Senior Brother hasn’t given her the gold from yesterday’s auction yet.

"Yes, miss, please wait a moment." The old herbal medicine merchant quickly looked at Uncle He. He had collected several high-quality and precious tonic herbs and placed them all with Uncle He.

Uncle He hurried out, and soon he came back with people holding a few wooden boxes.

"Miss, these are the finest medicinal herbs they collected. This blood ganoderma is the best. From what we can see, it must be at least eight hundred years old."

Hearing about such a precious medicinal material, Zhong Ran's eyebrows curved.

When she opened the wooden box and saw a huge blood-smelling Ganoderma lucidum lying inside, her eyes lit up.

The second thing is the strong medicinal power emanating from it, there is also a strong wood spiritual energy.

Medicinal herbs that are over a hundred years old already have some spiritual energy, let alone those that are several hundred years old.

"Very good, this is the herb I want."

Zhong Ran was very satisfied with this blood Ganoderma lucidum. It was not easy to get this kind of elixir here.

Seeing that he was happy, the old man was also happy in his heart. He opened another box, and there was also a Ganoderma lucidum in it, but it was obviously not as old as this one.

In another box was a 300-year-old ginseng. He was a little hesitant when he opened the last box.

"Miss, I don't know what kind of medicine this is, but when a herbalist brought it to me, my people thought it was unique and accepted it. I don't know if you will like it."

There was a blood-red plant lying inside, emitting a red glow, and it would feel a bit hot if you got close to it.

Zhong Ran showed a look of joy and took the box immediately.

Sungrass.

This is not an ordinary medicinal herb, but a magical medicine. It is also very old, at least a hundred years old.

"Can your people still contact that herbal farmer? I want to know where this herb was found."

The spiritual energy in places where spiritual medicines can be produced will definitely be richer than in other places.

The old man breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that she liked it.

"I'm not sure about that, but I'll have someone keep an eye out for it and report back as soon as I have any news."

After a pause, he said cautiously, "But how do we contact the young lady?"

They still don't know her true identity and are waiting for her to find them.

Zhong Ran took off the veil on her face, revealing her true face.

When several people saw her appearance, they all gasped and a name came to their mind.

"Miss Zhong?"

Recently, the capital is full of legends about this young lady, especially the time when she cut off Prince Yan's arm but was not held accountable by the emperor.

People speculated whether she was the emperor's illegitimate daughter, and the daughter born to his most beloved woman. Otherwise, it would be impossible for the emperor not to hold him accountable even when Prince Yan had his arm cut off.

"Well, if there's anything, just have someone send a message to me at the Marquis' Mansion."

The servants in the Marquis's Mansion did not dare to withhold her letter.

They looked at each other and vaguely understood.

Yes, only this fearless man would dare to cut off the prince's arm.

Zhong Ran didn't care what they thought and took out ten thousand taels of silver and put it on the table.

"I won't let you suffer any loss. Please divide these banknotes among yourselves in proportion."

Although she controlled them with poison, she only wanted to use them to help her find medicinal herbs, not to make them provide her with medicinal herbs for free.

If she were to leave, she would help them completely detoxify themselves.

"Here is the antidote for this month. Divide it among yourselves. Remember, you are not allowed to keep any of it. If I find out, you should know the consequences."

Without waiting for them to say anything else, she stood up and said, "Take me to see the rest of the herbs."

She doesn't have many medicinal herbs left and needs to import some.

However, now that Yu Su is by her side, it is difficult for her to refine the elixir again.

I have to find a way to get rid of that woman.

She collected the herbs they had prepared and left.

Only after they sent her away did the two herbal medicine merchants cautiously ask Uncle He: "Uncle He, could this Miss Zhong be..." the mysterious thief?

There were so many medicinal herbs, but she just waved her hand and they were all gone. Isn't this the method that a mysterious thief might use?

"Don't ask questions that we shouldn't ask. Be careful with your head."

Uncle He had guessed it long ago, but he didn't dare say anything.

The two medicine village merchants shrank their necks in fear, and their hearts trembled when they thought of the pain they felt when they were poisoned.

Another herbal medicine merchant pondered and said, "Have you heard about the elixirs auctioned at Xianke Tower? I heard that they were made using immortal cultivation techniques and have miraculous effects."

Uncle He and the white-haired old man looked at him at the same time and whispered, "Are you saying that the young lady is the mysterious immortal cultivator?"

The middle-aged man nodded slightly: "It's not impossible. Her skills, the method she used just now, and the fact that she asked us to get so many medicinal herbs, all these things prove the truth of this matter."

The old man immediately said happily: "If that's true, do you think we can get a longevity pill in the future?"

Uncle He looked at him and said nothing.

think too much.

How much gold is a longevity pill worth? They are just ordinary servants, do they deserve it?

Zhong Ran didn't know what they were thinking, and even if he did, he wouldn't care.

After she came out from there, she went to a restaurant and packed up several large portions of food to take back for Zhong Yan.

When she returned home, she unconsciously looked towards the direction of the palace again.

Mu Jinning had entered the palace, but hadn't come to see her yet. What did he mean by that? Did he really want to be with his childhood sweetheart?

Inexplicably, her heart felt a little bitter, but she quickly put it aside.

How could she have the time and energy to think about these love affairs now?

The right thing to do is to quickly improve your cultivation and return to Fengming Continent as soon as possible.
