"A punch?" The stall owner didn't know what the young man was up to.
"Yes!" Zhang Xuan nodded.
"Are you messing with me?!" Seeing the serious look on the other party's face, the stall owner flew into a rage and threw a punch at Zhang Xuan.
I've seen sick people, but I've never seen such a sick person. You want me to punch you? Fine, believe it or not, I'll beat you to death.
The moment Zhang Xuan executed his fist art, he exerted all of his strength. The howling of the wind revealed his cultivation realm, Fighter 3-dan Zhenqi realm primary stage!
"Not bad!"
Chuckling softly, Zhang Xuan dodged the attack.
He has already reached Fighter 5-dan Dingli realm pinnacle. The strength of a Fighter 3-dan primary stage is naturally unable to harm him!
"Hmm?"
Initially, the vendor thought that the young man was just a troublemaker with no cultivation. However, upon seeing the other party dodging his attack so easily, he immediately realized that the young man was stronger than him. Thus, he couldn't help but stop. At the same time, he felt perplexed. It can't be that a fellow who has reached Fighter 3-dan is here to buy things with just 8 gold coins...
"If I'm not mistaken, you're from Lower Pingyi!"
Seeing that the other party had made a move, Zhang Xuan managed to get his hands on the books regarding the person before him, and he smiled.
"You … How did you know?" The stall owner was taken aback.
Lower Pingyi was a city located in the suburbs of Tianxuan Royal City. It wasn't too big, and there were at least eighty cities of this level around the capital. Yet, this fellow was able to point it out in a single breath.
He couldn't help but lower his head to take a look. There seemed to be no distinguishing features on his body that would allow him to tell where he came from!
"It doesn't matter how I know!" Activating his acting cool mode, Zhang Xuan looks at the other party once more with an indifferent and haughty expression, "Half a year ago, you should have met with danger in the Tianxuan Forest and been bitten by a [Cold Bamboo Snake]! Even though he managed to escape with his life, his kidneys were damaged. If I'm not mistaken … it's hard for him to display his masculinity at that moment! "
"You … you …"
The stall owner took two steps back. His eyes widened, and his eyeballs almost fell to the ground.
Half a year ago, he was indeed bitten by the Cold Bamboo Snake in Tianxuan Forest! After that … it had always been real.
But this matter, other than him and the girl in the brothel, he had never told anyone else. How did this young man know?
Could it be fortune-telling? Foresight?
The stall owner was filled with disbelief.
"What? Am I wrong?" Seeing the expression on the other party's face, Zhang Xuan knew that the Library of Heaven's Path would not make a mistake. A look of pity appeared on his face. "If you think that what I said is wrong, I can give up on the medicinal herbs. I can turn around and leave right now. However … your only chance to be cured might very well be lost! Sigh, you won't be a man in the future. Don't blame me for not reminding you … "
"I … Young master, don't go!"
Hearing that the other party was able to cure him, the vendor's body jolted. He hurriedly took a step forward and asked, "Y-you can really cure me?"
To a man, there was nothing more tragic than losing his manly prestige. These days, when his friends called him out, he did not dare to go out, afraid that his problem would be exposed. He had been enduring the torment and had also looked for many doctors, but all of them came to the same conclusion. It was difficult to treat, and the only way was to cut it off …
He didn't expect that a random shopper would say it out loud and even say that he could treat it. He couldn't believe it.
"You can choose to believe it or not. I won't force you! However, since I am able to see through it, naturally, I have a way to treat it! "Zhang Xuan said.
"I beseech gongzi to treat me. As long as you can treat me … Putting aside a stalk of Frigid Sun Grass, you can take all of the medicinal herbs here!" The vendor hurriedly stepped forward and pleaded.
There were too many miracles in the world. The other party was right. Since he was able to see through it, he definitely had a way to treat it!
Furthermore, even if there was a sliver of hope, he had to listen to it. After all, it concerned his future happiness …
"Un, you were bitten by the Cold Bamboo Snake. This snake is born with a cold yin attribute. The moment you are bitten, the cold yin energy will seep into your body. No medicine is able to expel it, causing you to lose your bodily functions! In fact, even some apothecaries are helpless against it! "
"However, what is bizarre is that this snake's entire body is cold, but its gallbladder is scorching hot. All you have to do is find another snake, skin it, and swallow its gallbladder. Then, the cold yin energy in your body will be completely expelled. Your injured kidneys will also recover, allowing you to regain your manly prestige!"
Zhang Xuan.
Even though there were many antidotes for the Cold Bamboo Snake's venom, the best antidote was on the snake itself. The gallbladder of the snake was the key to neutralizing its unique cold energy.
This was written in detail in one of the books in Hongtian Compendium Pavilion. Upon thinking of the Cold Bamboo Snake, this information immediately appeared.
It was precisely because of this that he mentioned the Cold Bamboo Snake. Otherwise, the Library of Heaven's Path could display countless flaws, and he could just point out one that he could find the answer to. There was no need for him to mention this.
"Eat the gallbladder of the Cold Bamboo Snake?" The vendor was still in disbelief.
That simple?
If that was the case, why didn't any of the physicians he had sought out say anything about it?
"There should be Cold Bamboo Snakes for sale in this Merchant City, right? If you don't believe me, you can buy one and give it a try. I'll leave once I get the answer!" Zhang Xuan said.
Not only did Tianyu Merchant City sell countless medicinal herbs and treasures, it also sold savage beasts and animals. The Cold Bamboo Snake was a low-tier savage beast. Even though it was venomous, it could be used as medicine. Thus, there were indeed people who sold it.
"Alright, just you wait …"
After hesitating for a moment, the vendor turned around and left. Not too long later, he returned carrying a cage with a Cold Bamboo Snake coiled within it.
As a Zhenqi realm fighter, as long as he was prepared in advance, killing a Cold Bamboo Snake was an easy task. It didn't take long for the snake gallbladder to be extracted. Without much hesitation, the vendor swallowed it.
"Un?"
Not too long later, the vendor's eyes lit up.
He already knew whether it was effective or not.
"Gongzi, thank you for your treatment. These Frigid Sun Grass are all yours!" The vendor's eyes glowed with excitement and he nearly kneeled down in joy.
This matter had always been a thorn in his heart, and there was a period of time where he didn't even want to live anymore. Due to the treatment, he had spent most of his savings over the past few years. Never in his dreams did he expect that he would be cured just like that!
"I told you that you would give it to me, I didn't lie to you, did I?"
Since the other party was giving it to him, Zhang Xuan didn't stand on ceremony. He casually took the box containing the Frigid Sun Grass.
Knowledge was wealth as well. Since he had treated the other party's illness, it was only right for him to receive some compensation.
"Gongzi is a genius, I have eyes but failed to recognize Mt. Tai … I seek your forgiveness!" The vendor scratched his head in embarrassment.
Just a moment ago, he said confidently that if he really gave the other party the Frigid Sun Grass, he would address him as grandfather. To think that he would really do it …
"It's nothing!" Zhang Xuan waved his hands. Just as he was about to leave, he suddenly saw a group of people rushing forward anxiously. Their faces were flushed in agitation.
"Hurry up, Master Mo Yang is here!"
"To be able to receive Master Mo Yang's guidance is a glorious opportunity. We mustn't let this opportunity slip by!"
"If Master Mo Yang can appraise a treasure for me this time, I will buy it regardless of the price!"
"Indeed, it was a pity that I wasted the opportunity the previous time …"
…
The crowd discussed as they walked.
"What's going on?"
Seeing the attitude of the crowd, as though a celebrity had arrived, Zhang Xuan couldn't help but feel bewildered.
"Master Mo Yang is here!" The vendor's eyes glowed with excitement.
