There was a rustling sound.
After a while, Jin Fengxi threw a pair of black pants on the ground.
She put her long hair up with her hands and lowered her head.
After a while...
Mu Yun took a breath of cold air.
This unprecedented experience surprised him immensely.
"Feng Xi, who taught you this?"
Jin Fengxi raised her head, licked her lips, and replied, "Of course Yan An and Nan Ye told me."
"How does it feel?"
"Not bad..."
After three rounds of drinks...
Lu Jingzhi felt a little tipsy, so he paid the bill and left the pub.
It was late at night and the number of people on the streets gradually decreased, but the lights in Xuandan City were still bright.
He walked aimlessly, but his mind was always thinking about the two medicinal herbs, the Earth Spirit Milk, which he had not yet found.
Just as he was about to return to the inn, he suddenly caught sight of a small herbal medicine shop on the corner of the street.
A dim lantern was hanging at the door of the shop. Under the light, a white-haired old man was lying in a rocking chair.
He was missing one arm and had a hunched and thin body.
At this moment, he was leisurely waving a palm-leaf fan, and seemed to have no intention of closing the door because it was late at night.
Lu Jingzhi's heart moved, and he walked forward, bowed and asked, "Old man, why haven't you rested yet at this late hour?"
The old man opened his eyes slightly, looked him over, and said with a smile, "My shop is open at night, so I don't rest."
"Open in the evening?"
"Senior, this Xuandan City is much more lively during the day than at night."
The old man replied, "I don't like crowds. It's quieter at night."
"I see."
Lu Jingzhi poked his head into the shop.
It was a bit messy inside, and there was a light dust on the shelves.
Lu Jingzhi was embarrassed. [How can we attract customers in such an environment?]
Complaints are complaints.
Of course I wouldn't say such words.
He looked at the old man and asked, "I'm an alchemist and I'm looking for some medicinal herbs. Do you have any?"
The old man narrowed his eyes and asked slowly, "Oh? What medicinal herbs are you looking for?"
"I need Earth Spirit Milk. Do you have any?"
When the old man heard this, a gleam of light flashed in his eyes and he slowly sat up straight.
"What level of elixir can you refine?"
Lu Jingzhi was confused by the question.
The first time I bought medicinal herbs, I was asked what grade of elixir I could refine.
"Senior, I think it's not convenient for me to disclose this."
The old man smiled and said, "What if I had the Earth Spirit Milk?"
“Really…really?”
"Hahaha...what a coincidence, I actually have a bottle here."
Hearing this, Lu Jingzhi suddenly became alert and asked hurriedly, "Old man, do you really have the Earth Spirit Milk?"
"Can I have a look?"
The old man nodded, stood up and walked into the shop. After a moment, he took out a palm-sized jade bottle and handed it to Lu Jingzhi.
The jade bottle is crystal clear all over, and the mouth of the bottle is sealed with a red cloth. You can vaguely feel the rich spiritual energy contained in it.
Lu Jingzhi carefully took the jade bottle and gently lifted the red cloth. Suddenly, a cool breeze blew in his face.
He looked at it carefully and saw that the bottle was filled with milky white liquid, as delicate as solidified fat and emitting a faint halo.
"It really is Earth Spirit Milk!" Lu Jingzhi was overjoyed and asked quickly, "Old man, how do you plan to sell this Earth Spirit Milk?"
The old man stroked his beard and said with a smile: "Young man, this Earth Spirit Milk is a rare thing, and I don't want much of it."
"As long as you agree to one condition of mine, I will give you this bottle of Earth Spirit Milk."
Hearing this, Lu Jingzhi was alert in his heart, but he remained respectful on the surface: "I wonder what conditions the old man has?"
The old man smiled and said, "I want to ask what rank of alchemist you are."
"Eighth Rank."
"Eighth rank is enough."
"Here is a recipe for a pill called 'Soul-raising Pill.'"
"I urgently need this elixir to elevate my soul to the holy realm."
"If you can refine one for me, this Earth Spirit Milk will be yours."
When Lu Jingzhi heard this, his heart moved.
He pondered for a moment, then nodded and said, "Okay, I'm willing to give it a try."
"However, refining the Nine Revolutions Resurrection Pill requires a lot of rare medicinal herbs. I wonder if the old man has prepared them?"
The old man laughed and said, "Young people are really straightforward."
"Don't worry, I have already prepared all the medicinal materials. I just need an alchemist."
After saying that, the old man turned and walked into the room. After a moment, he took out a storage ring and handed it to Lu Jingzhi.
Lu Jingzhi took the ring and saw thousands of rare medicinal herbs neatly arranged inside.
"Senior trusts me so much?"
"Are you not afraid that I will escape with the medicine?"
Suddenly, the old man moved closer to Lu Jingzhi and sniffed him.
"A rich and familiar smell of blood. Are you from the Heavenly Demon Realm?"
Lu Jingzhi's heart trembled, "Senior, can you smell it?"
"Of course, because we are the same."
The old man raised his right hand, and a strong evil spirit surged from the palm of his hand.
Lu Jingzhi covered his mouth in surprise, "Are you also from the Tiansha tribe?"
The old man lowered his voice and said, "Keep your voice down. This Xuandan Pavilion is under the command of the Heavenly Palace."
Lu Jingzhi nodded quickly and lowered his voice, "What's your name?"
The old man fell into reminiscence and touched his head again, "I forgot, I only know that my last name is Mu and my wife's name is Wanjun."
Lu Jingzhi widened his eyes in disbelief, his pupils trembling slightly, as if the old man in front of him was a phantom walking out of the cracks in time.
His throat was a little tight, and his voice trembled with uncertainty, "Great... Great-grandfather?"
The old man's hand suddenly grabbed Lu Jingzhi's shoulder with such force that it almost hurt him.
The wrinkled palms trembled slightly, and the old man's voice was also filled with uncontrollable excitement.
"You...what did you call me?"
Lu Jingzhi took a deep breath and looked at the old man.
"Great...great-grandfather."
