He felt that even if these people in the martial arts world often lived in the mountains, they should still know some worldly matters.
"Well then, I'll take advantage of this. If you need more snow lotus in the future, just let me know, and I'll send you some more. I only brought these with me this time because I was in a hurry to leave." Lan Qingcheng said softly after accepting the note, afraid that Gu Yan would think she was stingy.
"Haha, I hope Miss Qingcheng won't renege on her promise then," Gu Yan said, grinning.
"Ah, no, I swear to heaven..." Lan Qingcheng's expression turned anxious, and she quickly extended three slender white fingers, about to swear.
Suddenly, Gu Yan's two fingers blocked her red lips, startling her so much that she stopped abruptly.
They're so soft! I've never felt lips that are so soft before. I feel like they're about to melt.
“Miss Qingcheng, I was just joking. Although we haven’t known each other for long, I absolutely trust you.” Gu Yan said, retracting the two fingers and licking them.
Upon seeing this, Lan Qingcheng's fair face flushed red, and she quickly said, "Then I'll take my leave."
Then he carried the jade bottle away, covering a distance of four or five meters with a light touch of his toes. It seemed he was holding back, perhaps afraid that the contents of the jade bottle would spill out.
"Wow, what an absolute beauty! She even has the features of a beautiful woman. Sigh, this is really putting me in a difficult position," Gu Yan sighed.
Immediately, he probed the bundle with his divine sense and was stunned.
One tree is 400 years old, four trees are around 300 years old, ten trees are 200 years old, and the rest are all over 100 years old.
He clicked his tongue in amazement. This was much better than what he had just harvested; it was not only fresh but also of high quality.
At the same time, he was thinking about whether he should find a few more rich women to help him out.
After storing all the herbs in his storage ring, he went back.
He approached a chubby middle-aged man and asked, "Senior brother, do you know where the people from Medicine King Valley are?"
The chubby middle-aged man glanced at him, curious as to whose disciple he was, who didn't even know where Medicine King Valley was. So he explained the situation to him and pointed out a direction.
It turns out that Medicine King Valley also sells pills here, only in a different location. However, they only accept medicinal herbs.
As Gu Yan walked along, he noticed that there were more and more people, and they were all elderly, each carrying a bundle or bag on their back.
He probed inside with his divine sense and found it was full of medicinal herbs.
Then I understood: Medicine King Valley sells elixirs here every year.
Soon they saw several makeshift houses, each with a sign in front of it listing the medicinal effects of the pills and their exchange price.
For example, those that enhance cultivation, heal injuries, or detoxify...
Gu Yan scanned directly with his divine sense and found dozens of century-old herbs in their storage boxes, along with piles of herbs from other years.
Seeing the golden light gleaming in his eyes, she wondered whether she should snatch it from them.
He then shook his head, deciding to take a closer look.
Upon approaching, his divine sense once again penetrated the area, this time focusing on the pills. He examined each type before withdrawing his divine sense.
He shook his head. What kind of pills were these? They were even slightly inferior to the ones he had made when he first returned to alchemy. The ones he could easily make now were much better.
At the same time, I was thinking, should I set up a stall here too?
You should know that he still has many ordinary pills in his backpack, all of them the very first ones he refined, made from common medicinal herbs.
It's worse than what's given to the Dragon Group, but it should be enough for these ordinary martial artists.
After making up his mind, he found a large rock to provide shade and set up a small stall. He even made a sign for himself.
It says on it:
Qi Nourishing Pill: Improves cultivation level; those in the Yellow Realm have a chance to break through to the next level.
Body Tempering Pill: Enhances physical fitness and heals minor injuries.
Bone-setting pills: can heal severed limbs.
...
Special prices, limited quantities, first come, first served.
Then he leaned against the rock and waited for the guests to arrive.
"Huh, why is there a stall selling pills here? And they're so arrogant, claiming it gives Huang Jing a chance to break through to the next level. Is it really that amazing?" a middle-aged man said in surprise.
“Junior brother, let’s go take a look. What if it’s real? We can exchange it for some good pills. Even if it’s fake, we can just not exchange it,” a middle-aged man next to him said.
“Good, senior brother, that’s exactly what I was thinking,” the middle-aged man said.
The two then walked over to Gu Yan, glanced at the bottles, and asked, "Young man, may I ask which sect or school you belong to?"
Naturally, one must be cautious, since such pills are not something that ordinary small sects can produce.
"No sect or faction, just a rogue cultivator," Gu Yan said lazily.
He then realized that without fame, these people definitely wouldn't pay attention to him.
Seeing the two men's expressions, Gu Yan knew they were about to back down, so he tossed them two Qi-Nourishing Pills and said, "Since you two are in the first batch, these two are for you."
The two looked at Gu Yan in surprise, realizing he was a fraud, exchanged a glance, and then swallowed it.
After all, anyone who dares to cheat here will be making enemies of all sects.
"Look, there really is someone who dares to eat that kid's pills, without any sect or school. What if something happens to them..." The man stopped speaking as he spoke.
Even if something goes wrong, what does it have to do with him? It'll just weaken the strength of other sects.
After figuring it out, he began to gloat.
"What? Isn't this my junior disciple?" an old man said worriedly, fearing that something bad might happen to him and the sect would lose two pillars of the sect.
