Chapter 60: Just Don’t Throw Away After Using It



Although he was grateful, Gao Han was soon brought back to reality.

His cultivation level is declining at a fast rate.

"What kind of medicine is this? Is there an antidote?" Gao Han knew nothing and could only ask Zhongli Tingzhou for help.

Since he can smell the conditions for drug poisoning, he must know what this is.

Zhongli Tingzhou lifted up his long legs, which had nowhere to put. "San Gu Xiang is a drug that is only used by spiritual cultivators. Those who are poisoned by this will lose their cultivation over time and eventually become ordinary people."

"If that's all, it wouldn't be considered contraband by the Spirit Refiners Organization, right?" Gao Han didn't think Yuan Chenlin would be so kind.

"That's right. The reason why the spirit cultivators who were poisoned by the Bone-Dispersing Incense did not die immediately was because they had spiritual energy protecting their bodies. When they became ordinary people, their bones would soften directly and turn into a pool of mud. Because the Bone-Dispersing Incense was too cruel, it was banned many years ago." Zhongli Tingzhou said.

Gao Han took a deep breath and asked, "Is there an antidote or other solution?"

Zhongli Tingzhou shrugged, "The bone-dispersing incense has been lost for many years. No one knows who made it, and there has never been an antidote. As for the solution, the only way is to find a wood spirit refiner, or a more powerful water spirit refiner."

Gao Han thought of the wood spirit refiner who accompanied Li Da for treatment last time.

"He can't." As if knowing what he was thinking, Zhongli Tingzhou said the cruel reality with a smile.

Gao Han frowned and suddenly felt a little regretful. If he had known this would happen, he would have learned water spirit techniques earlier, and perhaps it would have come in handy today.

Gao Han couldn't help feeling anxious as his cultivation was constantly being lost.

A bony hand suddenly rested on his shoulder, and Gao Han instantly felt something icy going into his body through Zhongli Tingzhou's fingertips.

"Although the toxicity of San Gu Xiang is overbearing, as long as we can control it temporarily, we can buy some time."

A few minutes later, Gao Han immediately felt that the rate at which his cultivation level was declining had slowed down. He had actually done it.

"How did you do it?" Gao Han raised his head and looked at him with sharp eyes.

Zhongli Tingzhou pursed his lips and smiled, "Don't look at me like that. Everyone has secrets, don't you have secrets too? Of course, you can exchange with me, I promise to tell you everything I know."

Gao Han shut up.

To put it nicely, Zhongli Tingzhou's willingness to save him was already a great favor, and if we were to get to the bottom of it further, it would be too ignorant.

As for the exchange he mentioned, he didn't take it seriously.

"Although the effect of the scattered bone powder has slowed down, it has not been completely eliminated. There are still hidden dangers. The most urgent thing is to find someone who can remove the scattered bone powder for you. I know someone, but he is not in Qing City."

Gao Han suddenly realized, "In the imperial capital?"

Zhongli Tingzhou nodded. "It's not an easy task to remove the loose bone powder. Once someone gets it on, they'll be in a lot of trouble."

"What are the conditions for asking the other party to take action?" Gao Han went straight to the point.

"Well, that depends on him. The conditions are another matter. It's hard to say whether he is willing to take action or not." Zhongli Tingzhou supported himself on the sofa with one arm and looked at him.

"You have a way." Gao Han said firmly.

He didn't believe that Zhongli Tingzhou had brought this up deliberately, but he had no way to convince the other party.

"Smart, but I don't help everyone." Zhongli Tingzhou smiled, as if he was waiting for him to say this.

"What are your conditions?" There was no trace of surprise on Gao Han's face.

Zhongli Tingzhou didn't see what he wanted, and curled his lips in disappointment, "What's the relationship between us? Why don't you react at all? Aren't you sad?"

The word "childish" was written in Gao Han's eyes, and he was almost about to say it out loud.

It's as if they really have a relationship, but it's nothing more than a fragile cohabitation relationship.

"Wait for me a moment." Zhongli Tingzhou stood up and walked towards the balcony without changing his smile.

Open the communicator, find a number and dial it.

Gao Han couldn't see, but he could hear. He made an appointment for treatment with the person on the other end. When he mentioned the price, it was so expensive that his heart skipped a beat.

"Okay, we can go find each other after we arrive at the imperial capital." Zhongli Tingzhou came back and told him the news.

"Is he robbing money?" Gao Han lowered his eyes.

Zhongli Tingzhou's smile became brighter, "That's right, wood spirit refiners are all a bunch of money-grabbing guys."

"The stronger they are, the more arrogant they are and the higher the price they offer. Your situation is more serious and requires a lot of energy, so the price is a bit high." He added.

Gao Han closed his eyes and couldn't help but curse in his heart, fifty million is still a high price. He had saved up this amount with great difficulty, and it was gone in the blink of an eye.

Gao Han immediately hated Yuan Chenlin in his heart. If it weren't for him, he wouldn't have to spend this money.

"When can I move?" Gao Han asked.

"Soon."

After Zhongli Tingzhou said this, Gao Han thought it would really happen quickly, so he felt relieved. However, he still underestimated someone and he started to act up at night.

"Are you hungry?"

"Do you want to take a shower? I'll carry you there."

"It's uncomfortable lying on the sofa, how about I carry you to sleep on the bed?"

"Can you stop talking?" Gao Han closed his eyes, his eyelashes trembling, as if he was enduring something.

"Can."

Gao Han opened his eyes and saw him propped up with his arms, his back leaning against the sofa, looking at him without blinking, with indulgence in his eyes, as if he was a disobedient child.

He endured the curse words.

Gao Han has discovered that since he met Zhongli Tingzhou, his mental activities have been unusually active, which is not a good thing.

"Didn't you say it would be soon? Why can't I move until now?" Gao Han took the initiative to change the subject.

"Tomorrow will be quick too." Zhongli Tingzhou said as a matter of course.

Gao Han decided to talk less to him tonight, closed his eyes and started practicing, and found a problem.

He couldn't practice, otherwise it would intensify the effect of the bone powder, causing his cultivation to decline even more.

"By the way, I forgot to remind you not to practice, otherwise it will accelerate the effect of the bone powder." Zhongli Tingzhou suddenly reminded.

"You could have said it earlier." Gao Han gritted his teeth.

Zhongli Tingzhou smiled and said, "I forgot about it."

Gao Han asked: "Is it not possible to even refine weapons?"

Zhongli Tingzhou: "Of course."

The next day, Gao Han was finally able to move, but the spiritual energy in his body was still in a stagnant state. As long as the spiritual energy moved, the bone powder would also be activated. Therefore, until he met the wood spirit refiner, he could not do any cultivation.

Gao Han made a prompt decision and booked two tickets to the imperial capital. "What is your ID?"

"Hey, hey, I haven't said when I'll be back to the capital." Zhongli Tingzhou raised his lips, a smile written on his face, and it was obvious that he was taking advantage of the situation and still acting cute. "Besides, what is our relationship? Are you acknowledging our relationship?"

After saying this, without waiting for Gao Han to answer, he reported his identity ID.

After Gao Han entered the information, the two plane tickets were ordered successfully immediately.

His plan was disrupted because of the bone powder. He couldn't take revenge on Yuan Chenlin and could only wait for the future.

He is now powerless, and it is hard to say whether he can protect himself in the imperial capital. Even if Yuan Chenlin's power is not in the imperial capital, he can kill him with just a flick of his finger.

Gao Han had no choice but to find a bodyguard for himself, and Zhongli Tingzhou, who was already there, was also no other choice.

"What if I agree?" The order came out. Gao Han breathed a sigh of relief and glanced at Zhongli Tingzhou.

Zhongli Tingzhou raised his elbow and placed it on his shoulder, smiling, "As long as you don't throw it away after using it, I will be satisfied."

That’s hard to say, after all, this is what Gao Han is thinking now.

But he didn't say it, even though he felt that Zhongli Tingzhou would not leave, what if?

He didn't want to take the chance.

"You're overthinking it. Since you're willing to try, I hope you can be serious about it." Gao Han said soothingly, turning passivity into initiative.

"Of course!" Zhongli Tingzhou said sincerely.

Gao Han booked a flight for the next morning. Penglai University would start school in three days, and he had originally planned to go to the imperial capital today.

Neither of them had any luggage and arrived at the airport empty-handed, and they immediately became the focus of everyone's attention.

"I must be lucky to go out today. Look at my long legs, dear. Both of us are so handsome."

The dear she mentioned took a glance and came to a conclusion, "Stunning top, cold bottom, identification completed."

“Ahhh, I think the shou is also very gorgeous. Look at that cold and cool look. This is my ideal abstinent shou…ah!”

The girl didn't look at the road and accidentally bumped into the person in front of her. Fortunately, her companion helped her in time, otherwise she would have had a close contact with the ground. By the time they reacted, the handsome guy was gone.

"Abstinence." Zhongli Tingzhou's eyes were like x-rays, scanning Gao Han from head to toe. "I think so too."

The two girls thought that their words would not be heard, but they did not know that the spirit cultivators had sharp ears and eyes, and could hear some tiny sounds even if they were dozens of meters away.

As soon as Gao Han saw Zhongli Tingzhou's playful expression, he knew what he was going to say. As expected, he looked at him calmly and said, "It's not certain who will be the top and who will be the bottom."

Zhongli Tingzhou put his hands in his pockets and walked nonchalantly: "Do you want to confirm your relationship with me now?"

"Where's your face?" Gao Han left him with the back of his head.

"He drowned in the arms of the ascetic." Zhongli Tingzhou replied sarcastically.

He was referring to the scene yesterday morning when he was rehearsing and deliberately buried himself in Gao Han's arms.

Gao Han was lying paralyzed at the time and didn't feel anything, but that was indeed one of their most intimate contacts. Thinking about it now, he found the scene strange and immediately drove it out of his mind.

While queuing to get the ticket, Gao Han received a call from Tang Zhenping, and then handed the ticket materials to Zhongli Tingzhou.

"Uncle, is there anything you want to talk to me about?" Gao Han changed the video call to voice communication.

"Minghao and Xinyu are going to the capital tomorrow. Uncle has also booked a plane ticket for you. Come over tomorrow morning." Tang Zhenping did not come to ask for his opinion, but to tell him the decision.

"No, uncle, I'm already at the airport."

"Why didn't you tell your uncle first?" Tang Zhenping said unhappily.

"Didn't my uncle ask me when he booked the ticket? You are just here to inform me now." Gao Han changed his meek tone.

Tang Zhenping's face darkened. "Are you questioning your uncle? Your uncle is also thinking about you. Think about your adoptive parents. You don't want them to worry about you, do you?"

This is also a threat.

Four days ago, Gao Han might have wavered.

"How could that be?" Gao Han was too lazy to even respond perfunctorily.

"Has Xiaohan grown too independent to even listen to his uncle?" Tang Zhenping asked tentatively with a smile.

Gao Han was silent for a moment. "Uncle, you are overthinking. I am an adult now. How can I trouble you again? If you have nothing else to do, I will hang up."

He hung up right away without giving Tang Zhenping a chance to say a word.
