Chapter 8 The vassal!
In the exquisitely arranged back hall, Song Jueye stared at Ling Tianao with a burning gaze and said, "I just want to ask, what do you want this Silver Star Flower to do?"
His fists were clenched and his body was tense. Song Jueye's eyes were greedy and urgent.
Silver Star Flowers, Yin-attribute plants, generally grow in cold and humid places. Due to their long growth cycle and short flowering period, they are rarely seen on the market. They are extremely precious things. Of course, if only these are the only ones, Song Jueye, an old fox who has lived for more than 70 years, would not be so excited.
This matter starts forty years ago. Forty years ago, when he was in his prime, he got lost in a mountain. That time he got a book that changed his life - "Hundred Grass Records".
This is an ancient book that I don’t know the age, which records the characteristics and production locations of hundreds of rare Chinese medicines. At the beginning, Song Jueye did not take it seriously, but in an accident, he fell into a difficult situation and couldn’t even extricate the poverty of his family. In desperation, he had to take the attitude of treating the dead horse as a living horse and searched for a place to pass by.
This search really made him find the Chinese medicine recorded in ancient books!!
Afterwards, he spent five years walking all the recorded places in ancient books, using the hundreds of precious herbs he picked to slowly make a fortune, and finally created a Chinese medicine shop in half of China - Renxintang!!
Now, forty years have passed quickly. He has been struggling for half his life and should have enjoyed the joy of family, but just a few months ago, an accident made him feel the threat of death for the first time. That experience made him feel the fear of death in his heart.
So he rummaged through the boxes and found the treasured "Baicao Lu" again, trying to find a way to prolong his life and allow him to live for a few more years. It has to be said that God is very kind to him, and there is such a method in "Baicao Lu".
"Take silver star flower, ginkgo, camellia, aloe... There are nine kinds of medicinal materials, both civil and military fire, turn over the cauldron at three hours, refine ninety-nine eighty-one hours, open the cauldron, use the method of flying across the sky to obtain the pill, take one to increase life for eight years, can take five to increase life forty years!!"
This is a passage clearly recorded in "Hundred Grass Records". This passage made Song Jueye ecstatic and took out the treasured Silver Star Flower desperately to try to refine this heaven-defying elixir. Unfortunately, he didn't know what the meaning of the double refining of civil and military fire, nor did he know how to do the Flying Crossing Method in the Sky. So in the end, Silver Star Flower consumed a lot, but the pill was not seen.
After repeated failures, he was discouraged. Just when he was about to give up this unrealistic approach, Ling Tianao came and wanted to purchase Chinese herbal medicines including nine medicinal herbs, including silver star flower, ginkgo, camellia, etc. Although he wanted eighteen kinds, who could guarantee that this was not for his sake?
At this moment, Song Jueye was like a drowning man who saw driftwood, trying his best to gain a glimmer of hope.
Looking at Song Jueye, an old man in his seventies, showing his appearance, Ling Tianao couldn't help but be slightly shocked and wondered. Does this man know the materials for the refining of the Yanyan Pill? He wants to get a few, rejuvenate and become ten years younger.
"Haha, Silver Star Flower is naturally used to refine pills."
He took out a bag of Yellow Crane Tower from his pocket, shook his roots and held them in his mouth. Ling Tianao's mouth slightly raised, saying what Song Jueye wanted to hear the most.
Sure enough, when he heard Ling Tianao say this, Song Jueye stood up with a "wow" sound, knocked the teacup in front of him to the ground, and said to himself with excitement: "It's indeed a elixir, it's indeed a elixir!! Haha, if the heaven doesn't destroy me, I won't destroy me!!"
With red eyes and trembling body, Song Jueye stared at Ling Tianao like a bull, then his lips grim, he sneered, his five fingers formed claws, and swept out!!
This old guy actually attacked suddenly!!
Song Jueye suddenly took action, but Ling Tianao was not without any precaution. Seeing the old guy sweeping across the five fingers, he smiled coldly, and with a "bang", he directly overturned the coffee table that was hit to the ground, and collided with the five claws that Song Jueye had poked out.
Click~~!
As Ling Tianao expected, the old man Song Jueye obviously had the skill to use. The extremely hard pear blossom tea table was like a tofu project under his five claws. With a sound, it was directly bombarded in half.
"Old guy, I have two brushes! But let me tell you, I'm not a vegetarian either!!"
With a low curse, Ling Tianao moved his footsteps and narrowly avoided Song Jueye's fierce attack. Then, he put his hands out, clamped the old guy's hands tightly, and bent his right leg slightly, like a sharp long whip, and threw it out!!
Bang~~!
With a dull sound, Ling Tianao's right leg hit Song Jueye's stomach hard, causing him to feel like a cooked prawn, hunched over and couldn't stand up for a long time.
The entire battle lasted only ten seconds, but Ling Tianao knew that if he had not been strengthened by the conquest system once, he would have probably fallen on the ground today. Thinking of this, the compassion that had risen slightly in Ling Tianao's heart disappeared.
"Old guy, why should you attack me!!"
Touching a wooden chair and sitting upright on it, Ling Tianao lit a cigarette on his mouth, and asked in a bad face to the fallen Song Jueye with a bad expression.
Song Jueye retching his mouth with blood, and his eyes were distracted at Ling Tianao on the wooden chair. Thinking that he could not get the pill and would not live long, his nose felt sore, like a child, and he burst into tears.
His crying made Ling Tianao, who was cold-hearted, feel a little at a loss. You know, the old man in front of him was an old man in his seventies, and it seemed that he cried after being kicked hard by him.
Damn, if you count this way, isn’t the responsibility on him?!
"Hey, don't pretend to be me, why are you attacking me?"
When he thought of taking the blame for some reason, Ling Tianao suddenly stood up and scared the old guy with fierce eyes. Suddenly, a flash of light in his mind, and suddenly he thought of the excited expression of Song Jueye who had heard that he used Silver Star Flower to refine pills before.
"You...don't you want my pill, do you?"
He said slightly uncertainly, Ling Tianao's eyes were full of surprise. Seeing the old guy nodding, he suddenly felt a stream of worry spread throughout his lower body.
Damn, isn’t it just a pill? As long as you give it money, I can’t sell it to you. As for the fight?
Just as I was about to scold this old guy, suddenly, a cold mechanical sound came quietly deep in my heart.
"It is recommended that the host accept this person as a vassal to help the host conquer the first world."
Needless to say, this was the voice of the system manager. After this sound, Ling Tianao's eyes rolled, and he reached out to help the old guy up like a wolf grandmother in Little Red Riding Hood. Then, he said to Song Jueye with a bewitching face.
