Chapter 35 Where is the body?



The fat boy looked at the bald man's body. The skull was gone and the brains were everywhere. He felt a little disgusted: "Brother Li, why are you so cruel? You always start with the skull?"

Li Banfeng explained: "I am a soft-hearted person. I don't want to hit them where they are most vulnerable. Their skulls are hard and can withstand it. If I hit them somewhere else, I'm afraid they would feel pain."

Isn't the skull a vital part?

What kind of nonsense is this?

Qin Xiaopang felt that he was not smart enough and did not understand Li Qi's thoughts. He looked at the two women lying in the woods. Cao Ye was crying, and he did not know what was going on with Youtao.

Nectarines are alive.

Cao Ye gave Nectarine two pills, and Nectarine gradually became able to move again.

She couldn't believe that what she saw was real.

The bald man and his men, a total of four people, were defeated by Baisha and Xiaopang just like that?

How high is the cultivation level of these two young men?

Youtao asked Caoye, but Caoye couldn't explain clearly. She was so scared that she didn't see the fight between the two sides clearly.

Not only they couldn't figure it out, Xiaopang couldn't figure it out either.

The entire battle lasted too short a time. There were a total of six people in the gold-rimmed glasses group, and they were gone in the blink of an eye. Xiaopang didn't even have time to think about what happened.

What sects do these six people belong to? What methods do they have?

Except for a physical cultivator who had his own armor, Xiaopang had no impression of the others' methods, because Li Banfeng did not give them any chance to attack.

Xiaopang always thought that the man with gold-rimmed glasses was the most vicious person he had ever seen.

Looking at Li Banfeng, Xiaopang was a little unsure whether the gold-rimmed glasses could be considered sinister or not.

The bald man and his three followers stole a lot of snake chrysanthemums from others, a total of 176 plants, including 38 nectarine plants and 61 grass-leaf plants.

Youtao and Caoye were very grateful that their lives could be saved. They didn't expect to keep the flower, but Li Banfeng still returned it to them.

The remaining seventy-seven strains, plus Lao Yanpao's ninety-one strains, were divided equally between Li Banfeng and Xiaopang.

Qin Xiaopang stared at Lao Yanpao's body in a daze.

Lao Yanpao saved his life, otherwise Xiaopang would have died at the hands of Hu Kozi. No matter what Lao Yanpao's purpose was at the time, his life-saving grace was real, and Xiaopang didn't want to let his body be left exposed in the wilderness.

Li Banfeng handed the shovel to Xiaopang: "Hurry up, it's time for us to go down the mountain."

While Xiaopang was digging the hole, Li Banfeng carefully searched the bodies of Baldy and his followers.

The bald man had more than a thousand yuan on him, and his followers each had between three and five hundred yuan on them, which added up to more than twenty-two hundred yuan.

Youtao and Caoye both suffered losses, so Li Banfeng gave them 300 yuan each as a consolation. As for the remaining money, Li Banfeng and Xiaopang each got 800 yuan.

The bald man's knife was a good weapon, so Li Banfeng kept it for himself. The weapons of the three followers were very ordinary, so Li Banfeng let the others choose for themselves.

As for what else the man with gold-rimmed glasses and Tiger Boy have on them, they will have to wait until they return to Suishenju to deal with it. These two people were captured by Li Banfeng himself, and Li Banfeng decided to keep all the stuff on them for himself.

Xiaopang buried Old Smoker, carried Nectarine on his back, and the four of them went down the mountain together.

Walking on the mountain road, Youtao smelled blood, which made Xiaopang sniffle.

"You don't look like a physical practitioner," Xiaopang expressed deep doubt about Youtao's Taoism, "physical practitioners can withstand a beating, so how did you let them get hurt like this?"

Cao Ye knew the inside story but did not say anything. Taoism is the place where cultivators keep secrets.

Unexpectedly, Youtao did not hide anything and smiled and said, "I am Huan Xiu. We just met by chance. I didn't tell you the truth at first."

"So it's Huan Xiu," Xiao Pang sighed, "It looks like those bastards got away with it."

According to Xiaopang's speculation, if the nectarines fell into the hands of the bald guy's group, they would definitely be subjected to more than just a beating.

"They won't get any advantage. They want to leave me to their boss," Youtao said with a bitter smile. "If they dare to touch me, I can't beat them if they fight me standing up. If they fight me lying down, none of them will survive."

Li Banfeng sneered: "Even though he's injured like this, he still won't let me off with his words."

"You say I'm bragging? My ability is not boasted. Aren't you also a cultivator? How about we compete with each other?" Youtao looked at Li Banfeng with an ambiguous look.

Li Banfeng looked at Qin Xiaopang: "I have a partner."

Qin Xiaopang looked at the grass leaves and said, "I am a food cultivator. I can eat a lot."

Youtao sighed, looked at Li Banfeng and said, "You have been picking chrysanthemums all the way, and you don't want to change the taste? I think flat ones are better than round ones."

The grass leaves turned red from cheeks to neck.

Li Banfeng was about to speak when he saw Qin Xiaopang explaining to Cao Ye: "I am a food cultivator, a real food cultivator, I can eat a lot, I will treat you to a meal in a while, and then eat for you to see."

The four of them walked all the way to the foot of the mountain. Youtao took out his pocket watch and saw that it was already eight o'clock.

They had already walked more than twenty miles up and down the mountain. Li Banfeng had already sensed that his basic cultivation level as a travel cultivator was already sufficient, not only sufficient, but also quite a bit more.

Kuwu Mountain is a dangerous place. According to Li Banfeng's perception, walking one mile here is equivalent to walking three to five miles in Liugou Town. Not only is the basic cultivation sufficient, but he should also have saved up two more days of time.

In Li Banfeng's impression, dangerous places seem to have special meaning to him.

What's the meaning?

Li Banfeng was choked by the poisonous fog and felt dizzy, and he couldn't remember for a while.

I slept well at the mansion last night, and I have done enough homework at home.

If you can’t remember, then forget it. What you need to do now is to quickly exchange the snake chrysanthemum for money and buy a ticket back to Yuezhou.

As for how to change it specifically, Li Banfeng is still thinking about it.

It’s definitely not about selling flowers directly. What Li Banfeng wants to sell is elixirs.

This depends on the strength of the Bronze Lotus.

After crossing the No Regrets Bridge and walking out of the range of the poisonous fog, the four of them desperately breathed in the fresh air.

Youtao vomited twice, and Qin Xiaopang sat on the edge of the bridge, gasping for breath, with beads of sweat dripping down his pale face.

Cao Ye took out all the cooling powder and distributed it to everyone. After resting for more than half an hour, Youtao stood up and could barely walk.

The cultivator's physical fitness is indeed good, but the quick healing of external injuries does not mean that the poisonous fog in the body can be cleared so quickly.

Everyone walked unsteadily and with great difficulty. Even Li Banfeng, who had just come out of the house, felt a little weak on his feet.

Cao Ye warned everyone: "Brothers and sisters, when you return home, you must rest well for a while. This poisonous fog is very harmful to your health, so don't be careless."

Li Banfeng sighed: "Is it worth it for these few thousand dollars?"

Youtao snorted: "If you were rich, you wouldn't have to come here and risk your life with us. We are all cheap people, but you are still talking about these useless things."

Qin Xiaopang looked at Youtao and said, "We risk our lives because we don't have the money. With your looks and figure, do you really need to risk your life? There are plenty of men willing to support you for life."

"I don't need anyone to support me!" Youtao snorted coldly, "I can not only support myself, but also make money to support my partner."

Li Banfeng frowned and said, "You still have to support your partner?"

"I am willing to do it. I have the ability to do it!" Youtao rolled her eyes at Li Banfeng. "If you can support your partner, why would you let him come out and fight with you?"

Xiaopang was sweating: "I am a food cultivator, how can I tell you..."

"Knowing that you are a food cultivator, it's not something to be ashamed of," Youtao smiled, "My partner is not a pleasure cultivator either, he's a home cultivator."

Cao Ye suddenly realized: "No wonder my sister asked me about Zhai Xiu. This is really difficult for my sister. It is not convenient for Zhai Xiu to go out and make money."

"Whether she makes money or not is secondary," Youtao shook her head. "She's a girl, I don't want her to be in the spotlight."

Li Banfeng suddenly realized: "So your partner is a girl."

Everyone nodded: "So it's a girl."

After walking a few more steps, Li Banfeng turned around and looked at Youtao: "Your partner is a girl!"

"No? What's wrong with being a girl?" Youtao frowned slightly, "You think round ones are better than flat ones, and I think flat ones are better than long ones. What's wrong with that?"

Li Banfeng nodded: "There's nothing wrong with that."

Youtao turned around and pinched Caoye's cheek: "Do you think what my sister said is right?"

"Sister, um, right..." Cao Ye and Youtao distanced themselves from each other.

Qin Xiaopang looked a little dazed: "My what, I am a food cultivator."

As more and more people walked on the road, Li Banfeng became more alert, as he was worried that someone would come to steal the flowers.

He suspected that this was a place where there were no laws at all.

Youtao looked quite relaxed: "Don't worry, once you get down the mountain, you have to abide by the rules. At least you can't do it openly, otherwise you will never be able to gain a foothold in Yaowanggou in the future!"

In the thick fog, flags of various colors fluttered.

All the major drug stores are right before our eyes, it’s time to make money.

Qin Xiaopang and Youtao's eyes were shining, and even the shy grass leaves could not hide their excitement.

The shopkeepers of each drug store had set up their stalls to collect flowers, but when Li Banfeng approached the stalls, he heard bursts of quarrels.

"Twenty-five dollars? Do you think you're just collecting cabbages?"

Twenty-five bucks for something?

Cao Ye looked at the snake daisy in the bag and couldn't believe it was real.

Qin Xiaopang went forward to inquire about the news, and after a while, he came back with gritted teeth.

"Let's go! We won't sell it anymore!"

The people around him also shouted: "We won't sell it! We won't sell it even if it rots in our hands!"

"This is too much of a bully. We absolutely cannot sell it!"

The shopkeeper of Liu's pharmacy bared his yellow teeth and said with a smile: "If you don't want to sell it, forget it. If you think I'm not giving you enough, go look at other shops."

The same was true for other drugstores. The proprietress of the Chu Family Drugstore said as she fixed her makeup on her face, "Twenty-five dollars a plant. That's the price this year. If you want to sell it, do it soon. If not, I'll close the stall."

Why did it become twenty-five-one?

Isn’t it eighty-five per plant?

Here's the situation.

Several major pharmacies sent people up the mountain and found a cliff with large patches of snakeweed growing on it.

They collected the snake chrysanthemums and distributed more than a thousand plants to each family.

With more than a thousand plants as a base number, the drug stores remained calm and discussed together to lower the price.

But this is too much pressure.

Twenty-five yuan per plant, four flowers can be used to make a snake-spotted pill. The cost is one hundred yuan, and it sells for ten thousand yuan, a hundredfold profit.

Youtao sat on the ground and didn't speak for a long time.

Cao Ye lowered her head and couldn't help but shed tears.

Xiao Pang was so angry that he stamped his feet: "I won't sell it, I won't sell it! I don't believe that I can't find another buyer."

"Don't say such angry words!" Youtao gritted her teeth and said, "If you don't sell them, who else can you sell? All the major medicine stores in Yaowanggou are here!"

Qin Xiaopang glared and said, "Then let's not sell it in Yaowanggou, let's go to a distant place!"

Youtao sneered: "What nonsense are you talking about? Where else can you go? Have you ever been out of Yaowanggou?"

Qin Xiaopang sat on the ground: "Then I'll wait for the peddler to come!"

"Waiting for the peddler?" Youtao smiled bitterly. "The man with glasses said that the spathiphyllums we picked will rot in less than a day. If we don't sell them today, they will be worth nothing tomorrow."

Qin Xiaopang snorted: "The person wearing glasses is not a good person either."

The grass leaf sobbed, "What he said is true. Tomorrow this flower will really rot and be of no use at all."

Youtao sighed and said, "Forget it, just sell it. Any profit is good. I have 38 flowers here, which can be sold for nearly a thousand yuan. It's better than nothing. This is our fate!"

"I won't sell it anyway!" Xiaopang threw his pocket to the ground, getting angrier the more he thought about it.

After thinking for a moment, he suddenly looked at Li Banfeng.

He came close to Li Banfeng and asked in a low voice: "Brother Li, is the elixir still there?"

Li Banfeng nodded and handed a snake spot pill to Xiaopang.

Xiaopang looked around, took everyone to a secluded place, and gave the snake-spotted dan to Cao Ye: "Girl, look and see if this is real?"

Cao Ye is a medicine practitioner. She doesn’t know how to refine snake spot pills, but she can tell the real ones from the fake ones.

After looking at it for a while, Cao Ye's eyes widened: "Fat Brother, this is really a snake spot dan, where did it come from?"

Xiaopang looked at Li Banfeng.

Li Banfeng said, "I saw an old lady on the mountain. She said she would trade me the chrysanthemums for the elixir. One elixir for ten chrysanthemums."

"Ten flowers?" Cao Ye didn't believe it was true, and Nectarine didn't believe it either.

Ten flowers can only produce two pills, so this old lady only makes double the money?

The pharmacy here makes a hundred times more money!

"This pill must be fake..." Cao Ye didn't quite believe his own eyesight.

Xiao Pang said angrily: "Didn't you just say it was true?"

"I'm afraid I'm mistaken. There's no such price in the world. I think I'd better..." Cao Ye looked at the flag of the pharmacy.

"I believe you!" Youtao handed the bag to Li Banfeng, "You gave me my life and flowers. No matter it's true or false, I believe you! I will accept it even if I lose everything!"

Xiaopang also gave the bag to Li Banfeng.

Cao Ye hesitated for a moment and handed the bag to Li Banfeng.

Xiaopang looked back at Kuwu Mountain and said, "I wonder if the old lady is still on the mountain. Brother Li, can you help us..."

Xiaopang felt bad about asking Li Banfeng to go back to Kuwu Mountain again: "Brother Li, I'll go with you."

Li Banfeng raised his eyebrows: "I'm going to try my luck, so don't make trouble."

Li Banfeng turned back the same way and opened the mobile home in the deep fog.

He knew that doing so was risky and might draw unnecessary suspicion.

But if he keeps holding on to the snake chrysanthemum and doesn't take any action, he will also be suspected.

When the time comes to make a move on the snake-banded pill in the future, Li Banfeng will have no connections and no helpers, and it is likely that he will get into more trouble.

Looking at the faces of the people in the pharmacy, it is hard to say what they will do. Li Banfeng really doesn't want to sell the Snake Patches Pill to the pharmacy.

Give Xiaopang and the others a hand and try to find out other solutions.

Anyway, after finishing this business, I will go back to Yuezhou. I will never come to this place again and will never meet this group of people again.

After entering Suishenju, Li Banfeng held the snake chrysanthemum and was about to see how the copper lotus opened, but found that the copper lotus had already opened.

There are three lotus seeds on the seven-hole lotus heart.

Where did these three lotus seeds come from?

Li Banfeng was stunned.

He held the candle and looked around, and found that something seemed to be missing in the room.

What's missing?

Where are the bodies of Gold-rimmed Glasses and Tiger Boy?
