Chapter 139 The Rumored Shangguan Clan
What's more, he has been studying medical theory for decades. If he could have developed it, he would have done it long ago. Why is he still helpless with an ancient book in his hand?
The old man sighed and said, "You can take this book to the people in the Pharmacist Association. Maybe they will gain something from it."
Zhuo Yun's eyes fell on the book handed over by the old man. Just as he was about to reach out to take it, Min Yu slowly said, "A gentleman does not take away what others like. Since it is a thing passed down by Patriarch Pei, there is no reason to lend it out."
When Zhuo Yun heard his master say this, he felt angry and anxious, "But the one in your body..."
Min Yu raised his hand and interrupted him, "Didn't Mr. Pei say that it can be contained temporarily? That's enough." His expression was calm and gentle.
"If we can find the descendants of the Shangguan clan, maybe Young Master Min's problem can be easily solved." Elder Pei sighed, paused, and then said: "However... the people of this clan have never appeared, so whether they really exist is still a mystery."
Zhuo Yun thought of the information he had found before, clenched his fists, and said in a deep voice: "No matter what, I will find the person even if I have to dig three feet into the ground."

Huo Yao strolled around the medicinal materials market again. His luck was pretty good as he actually bought the last herb.
After buying all the medicine, she took out the business card that the middle-aged man had given her before, and went to the address of the spice shop according to the address on the business card.
Because the production of old mountain sandalwood is small and it is relatively rare, its price on the market is very high, and there are also many fakes.
When Huo Yao went to the spice shop, the boss initially thought she was a young girl who didn't know much, and tried to trick her by selling products from other places. However, after she exposed his trick, the boss realized that he had met an expert, and he brought out the authentic products.
After Huo Yao took a look at it, although the quality was a little disappointing, it was still okay for making incense. He didn't waste any more words with the boss, nor did he ask him to package it specially. He paid the money, took the item and left.
It was completely dark outside. Song Ning had already called twice. Huo Yao hailed a taxi on the roadside and went home.
When I got home, it was almost eight o'clock.
Song Ning looked at her daughter carrying several bags and felt relieved for the first time. While helping her carry things, she said, "Girls should go out for a walk and buy some clothes and jewelry..."
However, her words came to an abrupt end when she accidentally glanced at a piece of wood in the bag.
Huo Yao changed into slippers, turned around and saw his mother's shocked expression, and couldn't help but shout, "Mom?"
Song Ning raised his head, opened the mouth of the bag with both hands, and said with great heartache: "Don't tell me that you went shopping and came back with a piece of rotten wood."
Other people’s daughters are bought clothes and jewelry, or at least some food to take home.
Look at this one in her house, she is actually carrying a piece of wood???
Is this reasonable?
Huo Yao's lips twitched, and he corrected seriously: "This is sandalwood."
The kind that is worth a lot of money.
Song Ning didn't care about sandalwood. She only knew that her image as a pretty, cute, and intelligent girl was completely ruined by this rotten wood.
So, Song Ning opened the other two bags and turned them over. Suddenly, the expression on his face became even more desperate.
It would have been fine if it was just a rotten piece of wood, but the other two bags also contained some strange things.
Song Ning shook her head, thinking that she must have opened it the wrong way.
