C735 Preparing Alchemy Materials

The Chinese medicine market was very large, and the daily volume of trading was also very large. However, anything that could make money was fake, especially medicine, high quality food, and so on. There were many things that happened, but it was not impossible to eliminate them, it was just that it was not strict enough.    

    

"The secret recipe passed down in my family, passed down from generation to generation for over a hundred years. After falling, beating, and wounding, the medicine can cure an illness." A man had set up a stall by the streets of the Chinese medicine market and was selling some medicine. Moreover, he was bragging about his medicine in an overbearing manner and returning it to his grandpa's hundred years of heritage.    

    

Who knows if it is really the Hundred Year Ancestor? Perhaps the other party might have obtained a prescription from somewhere and coaxed everyone else into doing so. Everyone looked at him strangely, but Wang Xiao realized, although there were a lot of people spectating, there were very few people who bought them.    

    

The commoners these days were all very smart and weren't so easily tricked because they were afraid of being tricked. The more times they were tricked, the more intelligent they would become. Next time, they wouldn't be so easily tricked. Such tricks could be seen everywhere on the streets and no one would believe it. They all held the mentality of watching a show.    

    

The man continuously shouted for a long time, but there was still no one who bought his medicine, so he was a little angry. F * ck, his voice was hoarse, but the audience still did not express that it was all his fault.    

    

Wang Xiao just gave him a casual glance before he left in big strides. He did not know whether the other party's medicine was effective, nor did he dare be sure that he was a liar, so he was too lazy to expose him.    

    

On this street, there were at least dozens of people who were shouting about the Ancestral Medicine Recipe. There were even some people who claimed that they had inherited acupuncture and inherited internal energy to treat illnesses. A birdman placed a large watermelon on the table. In public, he shouted that he had inner strength. As long as he put in effort, he could shatter the inside of the watermelon with a single punch while the outside of the watermelon remained intact.    

    

The audience didn't believe him, so he showed the watermelon to everyone. Everyone carefully checked the watermelon, but their hair was completely intact. When everyone had carefully inspected him, the man started his work. He stood with his legs bent and one hand raised slowly. As the other hand was raised, he kept taking deep breaths.    

    

Boom! *    

    

When the man's palm landed on the watermelon, the exterior of the watermelon remained undamaged. The audience was somewhat disappointed. They had originally thought that the other party's punch would definitely shatter the watermelon, but its outer shell was still unscathed. However, under the gazes of the crowd, he personally cut the little child into two. Everyone was dumbfounded.    

    

That was because the inside of the watermelon had actually been broken.    

    

Seeing that everyone was surprised, the man started to boast. This was his family's internal energy, passed down throughout the eighteenth generation. The internal energy passed down from generation to generation in his family had lasted for more than a thousand years, and it was able to cure illnesses and was even more powerful than modern medicine.    

    

Seeing it was true, everyone believed it without a doubt.    

    

Seeing that the man was trying to fool everyone and was trying to cheat everyone of their money, Wang Xiao really wanted to shout loudly. "Brother Dong, where are you? Hurry up and come and put on an act. Someone here is acting cool. Hurry up and beat him up so that he can reveal his true colors."    

    

Wang Xiao could tell with a glance whether the other person was a cultivator or not. He did not feel the slightest bit of Genuine Qi's fluctuation from this man's body. As for how the other party did it, these problems were simple. There were countless ways, but the most realistic way was through potions.    

    

As long as a medicine was injected into it, within a day or two, the inside of the watermelon would be scattered and then slowly decomposed. The current potions were all f * cking amazing. Even watermelons could be produced, so what else could not be done? It was said that an old farmer once cried in a watermelon field because his watermelon grew too fast.    

    

Perhaps many people would not understand that it was a good thing for watermelons to grow quickly, a good thing. Many people were worried about the growth of watermelons, and so they were extremely anxious. However, that old farmer was still too lucky, and the watermelons were still growing fast and crying.    

    

However, after knowing the reason, everyone understood. He was afraid that the person selling the medicine had no conscience and was worried that he would get a substandard medicine, so he tried his best to get the quantity of the medicine. But the old farmer did not expect that the person selling the medicine had a 'conscience', the effect of the medicine was actually that awesome, causing his watermelon to grow like crazy, just like how it was growing daily, in the end, the watermelon was growing too fast, and it was bursting.    

    

Looking at the watermelon that he had painstakingly grown being crushed in the ground, the old farmer cried sorrowfully. When Wang Xiao saw this news, he couldn't help but think of a sentence. Originally, this sentence was also wrong, and many people liked to talk about how deep the city was, wanting to return to the countryside.    

    

In front of a pharmacy, a woman was sitting in front of it, leaning on an armchair. She had a very contented look on her face. This pharmacy was not big. Compared to the other pharmacies, this one was somewhat small and poorly decorated. Those who did not know of it would think that this was just an ordinary pharmacy.    

    

However, Wang Xiao was very clear that this was not a very ordinary medicine store, but a branch of the Tianji Sect in the market of Huahai City and Chinese medicine. Logically speaking, with such an awesome Tianji Sect, even if it was just a small branch power organization, it should still be extremely glorious, but their Tianji Sect was not that particular.    

    

No matter how beautiful the golden jade was, it was just on the outside, looking very beautiful. Although this pharmacy was not luxurious, the herbs were all genuine, and the price was very expensive. As long as there was money, as long as there were medicinal herbs in the world, they could be bought here.    

    

When the woman saw Wang Xiao arriving, she stood up with a smile. It was a pity that he was a little too old. If the other party was ten years younger, based on her full body, Wang Xiao would definitely tease her.    

    

"Sect Leader Wang, long time no see. Where have you been making money recently? Why haven't you come for a long time?" The lady stood up and smiled to Wang Xiao.    

    

Wang Xiao laughed casually: "What's the point of getting rich, it's been troublesome constantly."    

    

"What's wrong, you're in trouble." the woman asked.    

    

"A little trouble." Wang Xiao said.    

    

After conversing with Wang Xiao for a while, the lady spoke out: "Sect Leader Wang, do you want to buy any medicinal ingredients today? You can rest assured that the medicinal ingredients here are genuine and that although the price is a bit expensive, the quality will be guaranteed. You don't have to worry about it."    

    

"I do need a lot of medicinal ingredients." Wang Xiao said.    

    

From the looks of it, Wang Xiao had bought a lot of medicinal ingredients this time, and they were even more numerous than the last time. Furthermore, the price was even more expensive, but she liked big clients like Wang Xiao, who were willing to spend money.    

    

In the business world now, who didn't like big customers? Every customer had dozens. For example, some people who dealt with the deposit business also liked big clients. A big customer's deposit could very likely be in the tens of millions or even hundreds of millions, while those small clients, with an estimated 1000 people, had less than a million. They would still have to work tirelessly for a day and explain countless times.    

    

Wang Xiao passed the list to this woman, and then said: "I heard that your Tianji Sect is about to set up again."    

    

The woman looked at the prescription on the list, and while looking at the list, she answered Wang Xiao's question: "Yes, our Tianji Sect will hold its Auction Conference tomorrow afternoon, but your Divine Monarch Sect will definitely receive our Tianji Sect's invitation. Regarding some sects that have strength, our Tianji Sect will personally come to invite them."    

    

"But I didn't get an invitation." Wang Xiao suspected that the other party was deceiving him.    

    

Although Wang Xiao would still participate in Tianji Sect even if no one from the Tianji Sect came to invite him, it was different if someone else personally came and invited him. If they could get an invitation from Tianji Sect, it would mean that their Divine Monarch Sect had been acknowledged by some large organizations.    

    

The woman said: "If I'm not mistaken, Tianji Sect has already sent people to rush to your Divine Monarch Sect. Every time Auction Conference begins, we would personally go and invite a sect with strength. The process of inviting a sect is to move closer to the sect, and the further away from the sect you are from, the first we were invited. Your Divine Monarch Sect is very close to the capital, so the final invitation will be made. "    

    

After hearing the woman's explanation, Wang Xiao felt that Tianji Sect was indeed diligent. It was a very big place with a lot of resources, and there were a lot of cities that were thousands of miles away from the Pinghai Province, and some sects were definitely invited a day earlier than others, while those sects in the province were the last to be invited. This way, everyone would be able to arrive at the scene almost at the same time.    

    

After looking through the herbs on Wang Xiao's list, the lady said: "You have a lot of ingredients here, and they are all very advanced in age, at least up to a hundred million. Are you able to take out that much cash?"    

    

"At the moment, you're unable to gather all these medicinal ingredients." Wang Xiao said.    

    

"Yes, three days." The woman said.    

    

There were dozens of herbs that Wang Xiao needed, and they were all very old, but the opponent could actually gather all of them within three days. With the Tianji Sect of a small branch body, he could also obtain such powerful abilities.    

    

"Then I'll pick up the ingredients three days later and pay on arrival." Wang Xiao said.    

    

"Alright." The woman said: "Sect Leader Wang, originally, your Divine Monarch Sect was going to start a war with the White Tiger Sect tonight, and your superiors were worried about it. According to our Tianji Sect rules, you must pay them all, and only then will we have all the medicinal ingredients, but I think highly of you, so it will be more convenient for you."    

    

This woman's words caused Wang Xiao to be extremely shocked. The Divine Monarch Sect was going to start a battle tonight with White Tiger Sect, a battle to the death, the people from the Tianji Sect actually knew about it, even this small organization of Staff knew about it.
