Chapter 412 Blackmail
“Yes, yes, yes!”
Professor Xu slapped his thigh and said, "I have also seen the records of this elixir, but there is no recipe. I don't know if it is true or not."
Huo Qinghuang almost laughed out of anger.
This old man is clearly helping Ao Jiu to extort money!
She pinched Ao Jiu secretly, but the latter continued calmly, "I do have the recipe, that's it..."
"What is it?"
Zhang Tianshi asked hurriedly.
Ao Jiu sighed in embarrassment: "In addition to various medicinal materials, at least three thousand-year-old medicinal herbs are needed to refine this Qianyuan Bone-Changing Pill."
"I'll give it to you!"
A wealthy monk immediately took out a jade box from his backpack and said, "Here are two thousand-year-old blood ginsengs!"
"I have a thousand-year-old Ganoderma lucidum!"
Seeing that everyone was about to start a new round of "treasure presentation", Huo Qinghuang felt that the show was almost over and "woke up slowly" at the right time.
"I, what's wrong with me?"
She asked weakly, her acting skills were perfect.
"Friend Huo is awake!"
Everyone couldn't help but look at her, and when they saw that her face was "pale", they suddenly had different thoughts.
Ao Jiu held her hand with a distressed look: "Your spiritual power just went out of control. Thanks to all the Taoist friends for their generous help. Wait until I refine the Qianyuan Bone Changing Pill and you recover, and then come and thank you all Taoist friends."
Huo Qinghuang looked at everyone with "gratefulness", but glared at Ao Jiu fiercely from an angle that no one else could see.
The True Dragon Prince blinked innocently, but deftly took the "medical fees" handed over by various monks.
When Zhang Tianshi saw this, he stuffed everything in his arms to Ao Jiu.
"See if there are any useful herbs in here. We must cure Fellow Daoist Huo!"
He said rather anxiously.
If Ao Jiu and Huo Qinghuang had not been present today, Zhang Xuanjun would have returned to the underworld long ago. How could he still be alive today?
So when I speak now, I am particularly sincere.
Ao Jiu couldn't refuse the kindness, so he took the herbs and stuffed them all into a bag, which made everyone's eyelids jump.
It was not until this time that some people felt that something was wrong, especially since Ao Jiu was a complete stranger and had never been seen before.
If it weren't for the fact that Zhang Tianshi was quite familiar with him, they wouldn't have believed what he said so easily.
"This donor..."
The Shaolin abbot took a step forward, stared at Ao Jiu, and was about to ask a question.
Ao Jiu suddenly felt something was wrong, and lifted Huo Qinghuang up with one hand, interrupting the Shaolin abbot's words: "Friend Huo's injury can't be delayed any longer, I will take her to get treatment now, see you later!"
As he spoke, he pointed his toes, flew up with Huo Qinghuang in his arms, and soon disappeared in the stunned eyes of everyone.
"Hey, there's no place to make pills, why is he running away?"
"That's right. He even took Fellow Daoist Huo with him. Could he be a liar? Has anyone seen this person?"
"Fuck! Now that you put it that way, it seems to be true!"
"Tianshi, where is Tianshi?"
Someone suddenly discovered that Zhang Tianshi was missing and shouted hurriedly.
Everyone then came to their senses and discovered that not only Zhang Tianshi had disappeared, but even Tushan Yuhua was gone.
What was there for everyone to not understand now? There were so many of them, but they were fooled and willingly gave up so many rare treasures.
"Ahhh! I'm so pissed! Zhang Xuanjun, I'm not done with you!"
The honest Taoist Chongxu was so angry that he blew his beard and glared, waving his whisk with both hands and stomping his feet on the spot.
"Zhang Xuanjun, you are so righteous on weekdays, but you colluded with others to deceive us. I will settle this account with him!"
Wu Chenzi frowned and said in confusion, "This is very strange. Zhang Tianshi has always been honest in his actions. How could he do such a stupid thing? There may be another hidden story behind this."
However, at this moment, anger clouded everyone's minds and no one could listen to such a calm analysis.
A middle-aged monk in gorgeous clothes in the crowd, with a red face, shouted angrily: "No matter what the secret is, our natural treasures have been swindled away by them, we must get them back!"
Everyone echoed the sentiment, becoming more and more agitated, clamoring to find Zhang Tianshi and others to get to the bottom of things.
Little did they know that Zhang Tianshi was really being wronged.
How could he know that Ao Jiu would team up with Huo Qinghuang to deceive everyone.
In his mind, a real dragon is extremely proud, so how could it be possible for it to do such a dirty thing.
Therefore, he was truly an innocent victim.
It was all because everyone didn’t know Ao Jiu’s origins and didn’t see him transform into a human. They thought he was a wild Taoist priest from somewhere and scolded him.
Ao Jiu flew out of everyone's sight holding Huo Qinghuang in his arms. Before he could stand firm, Huo Qinghuang suddenly turned around, snatched the bag of medicinal herbs from his hand, and jumped eight feet away.
Tushan Yuhua, who was following far behind, saw this scene and her eyelids twitched.
He said that there was something fishy going on between the two of them, and they were really making a fool of everyone.
As soon as they left everyone's sight, they started to plot against each other.
"Haha, you are really good at turning your back on people."
Ao Jiu crossed his arms across his chest, with a dangerous light flashing in his golden pupils.
Huo Qinghuang weighed the bag in his hand and sneered, "Short-tailed Dragon, these herbs are given to me as supplements, and you have the nerve to take them?"
As she spoke, she was about to open the bag to check the loot.
Ao Jiu was not in a hurry. He flipped his wrist and two thousand-year-old blood ginsengs appeared in his palm.
"I only want these two thousand-year-old blood ginsengs. It's not too much to count them as my reward, right?"
Ao Jiu's lips curled slightly and he spoke righteously.
Huo Qinghuang's eyes narrowed dangerously, and the bag of herbs in her hand creaked as she squeezed it.
"When did you ..."
She asked through gritted teeth.
Ao Jiu played with the blood ginseng in his hand and smiled smugly: "Just when you pretended to faint and fell into my arms."
He deliberately dragged out his tone: "After all, I can't let you take advantage of me for nothing, right?"
"Bah! You think I'm taking advantage of you? No, it's you who's taking advantage of me all this time!"
Huo Qinghuang's eyes widened, almost spitting fire with anger.
In the distance, Tushan Yuhua's mouth twitched slightly, and she looked at the stunned Zhang Tianshi beside her with sympathy.
Zhang Tianshi was not as fast as the three big monsters. When he arrived, he saw the two of them arguing with each other.
The "severely injured" Brother Huo was jumping around and pointing at Prince Zhenlong's nose and cursing.
This scene really shocked him.
Zhang Tianshi stood there in a daze, his Taoist robe rustling in the sea breeze.
“This, this…”
He pointed at the two people who were arguing, and his voice changed: "Isn't Fellow Daoist Huo seriously injured and dying? Isn't this Prince Long trying to make an elixir to save people?"
Tushan Yuhua shook her head gently: "Master Zhang, you are the only remaining giant in Dragon Country, how can you be so naive?"
