Jing Zhe wasn't interested in whether Zhou Zhiwei was capable or not, but he was very interested in the medicine Zhou Zhiwei mentioned. If it worked, well, he was just about to go to Wuxian Garden.
So he pulled Zhou Zhiwei to a corner.
"Brother Zhou, let's talk in private!"
Then he asked, "Brother Zhou, do you really have a medicine that's even better than the ones I just mentioned?"
Zhou Zhiwei nodded, very pleased with himself.
"Our Jinxi area is known as the capital of medicine, so of course we have it!"
So Zhou Zhiwei began to talk to Jing Zhe.
Jinxi is rich in various herbs, including many rare and exotic plants that cannot be found elsewhere, hence its nickname "Medicine Capital." Even children in Jinxi can recognize several medicinal herbs, which is why Tongtianque was originally established there.
The various evil poisons refined by Tongtianque are mostly made from ingredients from Jinxi. Even famous doctors and physicians from other countries would go to Jinxi for several months every year to collect medicines.
Is it true or false?
After listening, Jing Zhe was skeptical: "Since Jinxi has everything, why did you come to this pharmacy to look for medicine?"
Zhou Zhiwei shook his head: "Although Jinxi has a wide variety of medicines, it doesn't have everything. As the capital of Anguo, Jingzhou sees countless people passing through every day. The people in this Da'an Pharmacy are probably more knowledgeable, which is why I came to ask..."
It turns out that Zhou Zhiwei's family was a scholarly family and had nothing to do with medicine. However, he had previously met a wandering Taoist priest who, seeing that Zhou Zhiwei could speak eloquently, said that he had wisdom and would surely attract many romantic partners in the future. The priest specially gave him a bottle of "sooner or later doom," saying that after taking it, it would not only strengthen the body and consolidate its foundation, but also, if it could balance yin and yang, it would greatly improve other aspects of the body.
After Zhou Zhiwei received the "sooner or later doom" medicine, he took one with a try-it-out mentality, but he didn't feel any effect. He went to many local pharmacies to inquire, but none of them had ever heard of such a thing.
But he always felt that the Taoist priest didn't look like a fraud, so after arriving in Jingzhou, he thought of asking at Da'an Pharmacy. But just like in Jinxi, no one had ever heard of him.
Then I met Jing Zhe.
"Brother Jing, to be honest, with my discerning eye, I think that Taoist priest must be a master. His saying 'He'll be finished sooner or later' also has a mysterious meaning, it's just that it doesn't suit me!"
Then he took out a small medicine bottle from his bosom as if it were a precious treasure, "But Brother Jing needs it! So I've decided to give it to someone who is destined to receive it!"
"roll!"
Jing Zhe was furious. "It's him who's incompetent, not me!"
Looking at Hanhan's silly grin, Zhou Zhiwei thought to herself, "How did you know he couldn't perform? And why did you go to such lengths to find him aphrodisiacs?"
Add to that Jing Zhe's handsome appearance—suddenly, an evil thought arose in Zhou Zhiwei's heart, and he couldn't help but shiver.
These two... they're something else!
He then waved his hand and said, "Brother Jing, it doesn't matter which of you uses it! As long as Brother Jing is my teacher and teaches me cursive script, this 'sooner or later it will be finished' will belong to Brother Jing!"
"Bah! You trade my cursive calligraphy for this fake medicine?"
Jing Zhe spat and said disdainfully.
It's all this talk about strengthening the body and restoring health, rotating yin and yang, just some pretentious stuff. It's not even as good as a miracle cure. Besides, his name is so obvious. He's doomed sooner or later!
"Brother Jing, this is definitely not fake medicine!"
"It's not fake medicine?"
Jing Zhe sneered, "I'll just ask you one question: did he ask for money?"
Anyone asking for money is definitely a scammer; anyone not asking for money... is probably out to take revenge on society!
"Well... if I take it, it's not because of the medicine, but because the Taoist priest said he hasn't eaten for days. I figured since I've already taken his medicine, what's wrong with giving him some money for food?"
Haha, scammers prey on idiots like you!
Since Zhou Zhiwei was there, Jing Zhe decided to buy it another day, shook his head, and prepared to leave.
Seeing this, Zhou Zhiwei quickly stepped in front of him and whispered, "Alright, Brother Jing, let me tell you the truth. Actually, I didn't feel much of a change after I tried the pill myself, but I gave it to a playboy from our area, and he told me it lasts for half an hour each time! He asked me if I had any more, and I lied to him and said I didn't have any!"
Jing Zhe was stunned, then shocked.
Half an hour...
He's definitely a womanizer!
Then, in a serious tone, he said, "Well, why don't you give me the medicine? Just so you know, I don't actually want the medicine; I just want to teach you some calligraphy!"
"I understand, I understand!"
Zhou Zhiwei was overjoyed and quickly handed the small medicine bottle, which was "inevitably doomed," to Jing Zhe.
Jing Zhe was overjoyed and carefully put it together with the three tokens.
"Brother Jing, now that you've put these pills away, when shall we practice calligraphy?"
Zhou Zhiwei dreams of writing cursive script as well as Jing Zhe's, so that he can be famous in Jinxi for a long time!
Jing Zhe looked up at the sky. "The weather is too nice today, not suitable for practicing calligraphy. Let's do it another day!"
"Another day? Which day?"
"Let me think about it..."
As Jing Zhe walked out, he said, "Next time, definitely next time!"
Even the simpleton was left behind, and Jing Zhe slipped away on his own.
...
Jing Zhe's destination was Wuxian Garden.
Although he felt that the idea that "it will be over sooner or later" was not very reliable, Zhou Zhiwei probably wouldn't lie to him. Since someone could become a virile man for half an hour after eating it, he didn't need much more. He would be satisfied in a quarter of an hour!
Since we're going to give it a try, we should naturally look for Wang Yingqiu.
Before entering Wuxian Garden, Jing Zhe took out the medicine bottle.
Looking at the black pills inside, there weren't many, only about four or five. Could they be very precious?
After thinking about it, he put it back. It wasn't that he was reluctant to part with it, but rather that he felt out of male pride that his thanks yesterday were not his true level.
He plans to conduct a comparative experiment later, firstly to test whether he is truly incapable or just pretending, and secondly to test whether this "inevitable" medicine is actually fake.
The method is simple: don't take it the first time, take it the second time, and compare the time it takes.
Scoring a second goal shouldn't be too difficult for him, right?
Having made up his mind, Jing Zhe pushed open the door to Wuxian Garden. The servants in the garden were very welcoming to Jing Zhe, making him feel like he was coming home.
He went up to the second floor, arrived at Wang Yingqiu's door, and pushed the door open and went in without even knocking.
Wang Yingqiu was standing with her back to the door when she heard the noise at the door. She turned around abruptly, saw it was him, and grinned.
What brings you here?
Jing Zhe closed the door, and not entirely sure, he added a second lock before he was done. Turning back, he smiled and said, "Why can't I come? We haven't seen each other for a long time... ptooey, ptooey, it's like a day apart feels like three autumns! I've missed you so much, of course I had to come and see you!"
Upon hearing Jing Zhe's words "once we meet, it will be over soon," and recalling his act of locking the door as soon as he entered, Wang Yingqiu's pretty face immediately flushed red. She parted her cherry lips slightly and slowly uttered two words.
"Bad guy!"
