"Benefactor Tang, our luck is excellent. We've just arrived here and we've already killed so many second-class fierce beasts. I think it's almost enough. Should we go back now? "Dao Master Ziyi came before Tan Xiu. He wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and asked with a smile.
Tan Xiu asked, "Don't we still need to look for precious ores?"
Dao Master Ziyi forced a smile and said, "If we want to look for precious ores, we need to go deep into the island. Benefactor Tang, aren't you afraid of encountering danger in the island? "
"This …"
Tan Xiu stared blankly for a moment and immediately gave up the idea of looking for precious ores. Although it was said that nothing ventured, nothing gained. But if someone knew that they were going to die, then they were either mentally ill or sleepwalking. He was neither sick nor sleepwalking, so he wouldn't do something that would overestimate his own capabilities.
At the very least!
Not now!
Tan Xiu was silent for a moment and then seriously said, "Such being the case, let's go back. We'll move the carcasses of these 24 White Crocodiles back to the cargo ship first. "
Although Miao Wentang was injured, he was still immersed in excitement at the moment. Upon hearing Tan Xiu and Dao Master Ziyi's words, he quickly said, "Are we going back like this? Although we've hunted 24 second-class fierce beasts, we've just arrived. It's too much of a pity to go back like this. I just talked with Brother Shao. I think we should stay here for a few more days. If we find more fierce beasts, we can also kill a lot of them. "
Dao Master Ziyi shook his head and said, "It's our great luck to run into this flock of White Crocodiles. Although there are fierce beasts in this Evil Dragon Sea Area, their numbers are not many. With the appearance of this flock of White Crocodiles, I'm afraid it's very difficult for these fierce beasts to tolerate other fierce beasts here. If this poor Daoist's inference is correct, the other fierce beasts in this Evil Dragon Sea Area have been hunted or driven away by this flock of White Crocodiles. "
"This …"
Miao Wentang was speechless.
If it was Tan Xiu who said this, perhaps he could refute one or two. After all, he thought that Tan Xiu was too young and had too little experience. But Dao Master Ziyi was much older than him and had experienced too many things in his life. Whether it was experience or character, he respected him.
Shao Mingzhen said with a smile, "Since Dao Master Ziyi said so, then let's go back! Each of us can get six of the twenty-four Level 2 Vicious Beasts' corpses. It's time to be satisfied. "
Miao Wentang said with some unwillingness, "But we haven't gotten any precious ores yet. Didn't Dao Master Ziyi say that there are precious ores on the nearby islands? "
Dao Master Ziyi said, "Indeed. However, Almsgiver Tang predicted that there were ferocious creatures on these three islands! Therefore, it's better to believe that it's true than not. Don't be a greedy person who's never satisfied! "
"Go back!"
Miao Wentang did not want to be looked down upon and seen as a greedy person, so he said decisively. However, in his heart, he did not think much of it. Humans die for wealth, birds die for food. Seeking wealth amidst danger has always been a coexistence of danger and opportunity.
Two hours later, the corpses of the twenty-four white crocodiles were all sent back to the cargo ship by the four of them. After seeing the corpses of the white crocodiles, the sailors were shocked. However, Miao Wentang had ordered them to keep quiet and also promised them some benefits, so they acted as if they had seen nothing.
After returning to Jingmen Island, Tan Xiu entrusted Miao Wentang to send the assigned white crocodiles' corpses to Star City's South Gate Town. Then, he went alone to Jingmen Island's Medicinal Herbs Market. On the way back to Jingmen Island from the South China Sea, he inquired about the situation of Jingmen Island's Medicinal Herbs Market from Miao Wentang and the others, and the result made him very surprised.
Nowadays, the famous mountains and rivers in the country had been seriously developed, and many precious herbs had been extinct. But Jingmen Island was different. Jingmen Island was located in the South China Sea, and there were many islands nearby. Many of the islands had not been visited for thousands of years. Once a large number of herbs were picked, they would be sent to Jingmen Island's Medicinal Herbs Market.
Therefore!
The scale of Jingmen Island's Medicinal Herbs Market was comparable to the Imperial Capital's Medicinal Herbs Market and the Demon Capital's Medicinal Herbs Market. Occasionally, there would be extremely precious herbs that would attract countless medicinal herbs merchants and big buyers.
Neat and clean.
This was Tan Xiu's first impression of Jingmen Island's Medicinal Herbs Market. On both sides of the wide street, there were stalls, and behind each stall, there was a stall owner greeting the customers. Tan Xiu found that the entire Medicinal Herbs Market was divided into four areas: A, B, C, and D.
Area A and Area B belonged to the stall area. These two areas had four streets, and there were thousands of medicinal herbs stalls.
Area C and Area D belonged to the store area. They also had four streets, and the number of stores was exactly 500.
Tan Xiu still had 90 million yuan in his account. It seemed to be a huge amount, but if he wanted to buy a large number of precious herbs, it was pitifully small. A 1000-year-old wild ginseng was already so expensive that it could make one's hair stand on end. Perhaps, the price of other precious medicinal herbs would not be much different.
Therefore, Tan Xiu strolled around the stall area. Last time in Star City's Medicinal Herbs Market, he had found an incomparably precious medicinal herb, Blood Spiral Snail.
This time, he wanted to buy a large number of medicinal herbs. On one hand, he needed to collect the medicinal herbs needed to concoct the Golden Bell Liquid. On the other hand, he also needed to buy the medicinal herbs needed to concoct the Spirit Congealing Pill. Whether it was the Golden Bell Liquid or the Spirit Congealing Pill, Tan Xiu knew that it would be very difficult to collect all the medicinal herbs. But, he could exchange them for other medicinal herbs with the same efficacy.
"Little Brother, are you here to buy medicinal herbs?"
A bearded middle-aged man pushed a cart and stopped after seeing Tan Xiu and asked.
"Yes!" Tan Xiu said.
The bearded middle-aged man said with a smile, "Little Brother, do you want to buy a lot of medicinal herbs? If so, how about renting me as a 'porter'? The rent is absolutely cheap. "
Porter?
Tan Xiu asked the confusion in his heart. After the middle-aged man's explanation, he understood that the 'porter' was a person who rented a cart to help transport the medicinal herbs. He thought for a moment, nodded and asked, "What's the price?"
The bearded middle-aged man was happy and quickly said, "If you only buy a cart of medicinal herbs, you only need 100 yuan for 2 hours and 200 yuan for 5 hours. If you want to buy more than a cart, I suggest you directly book it for a day, 500 yuan a day. "
Tan Xiu pondered for a moment and asked, "Are you familiar with this Medicinal Herbs Market?"
The bearded middle-aged man grinned and said, "Yes, I'm very familiar with it. I've been a porter here for 8 years. Which stall's medicinal herbs are good, which stall's medicinal herbs are bad, which store's medicinal herbs, and which store's medicinal herbs are genuine, I know them all. It seems that this is your first time coming to Jingmen Island's Medicinal Herbs Market, right? I didn't explain it clearly. If you want me to be your porter, I also have the responsibility to be your guide and help you introduce the situation of the Medicinal Herbs Market. "
Tan Xiu said, "I'll give you 1,000 yuan to be my porter for a day."
Double?
The bearded middle-aged man was overjoyed. His expression turned respectful as he said with a smile, "Little Brother is a straightforward person. I, Zhao Dazhuang, will definitely make you feel that it's worth it. If you need any medicinal herbs, you can tell me and I'll take you there secretly. "
Tan Xiu shook his head and said, "Just follow me for a stroll first! If I can't buy the medicinal herbs I want, I'll let you take me to find them. "
"All right!"
The bearded middle-aged man happily agreed.
Two hours later, Tan Xiu had bought all the medicinal herbs needed to concoct the Golden Bell Liquid. Moreover, he wanted 10 times the amount of each medicinal herb. The small cart pushed by the bearded middle-aged man was about to be filled to the brim.
"Huh?"
Tan Xiu had just completed the last transaction and was about to continue to buy the other medicinal herbs needed to concoct the Spirit Condensation Pill. Suddenly, he found that a lot of people had gathered in the square between the stall area and the store area. Moreover, there were also a lot of people running there from all directions.
The bearded middle-aged man followed Tan Xiu's line of sight. He immediately shook his head and said with a wry smile, "Mother is 100 years old, but I often think of her as eighty. Mother is the greatest person in the world. How many times has it been? The sixteenth time? "
Tan Xiu was puzzled, "What do you mean?"
The bearded middle-aged man said, "Two years ago, a pair of mother and daughter came to our Medicinal Herbs Market. The mother was about 40 years old, and the daughter was eight or nine years old. That girl was suffering from a strange disease, and her body was suffering from pain all the time. In order to treat her daughter, the woman traveled to major cities in the country, looking for famous doctors everywhere. Unfortunately, she tried her best to find countless Western doctors and Chinese medicine doctors, but none of them could cure her daughter's strange disease. "
"In the past two years, she brought her daughter to us. Every once in a while, she would set up an arena in the central square of the Medicinal Herbs Market, and let all the famous doctors come to diagnose and treat her daughter. She also threatened that whoever could cure her daughter, she was willing to give all of her millions of family fortune. "
"Two years have passed. Not only did she not find a Divine Doctor to cure her daughter, but she also spent most of her millions of family fortune. It has been two months since the last time she set up an arena here. The last time she had hundreds of thousands of family fortune, and it is estimated that this time it will be less than the last time. "
Tan Xiu looked at the bearded middle-aged man in a daze, and a sour feeling surged in his heart. The thread in the hand of the loving mother was tightly sewing the clothes of the wanderer before he left, for fear of returning late.
Mother.
She was indeed the greatest person in the world.
Tan Xiu had been in the Immortal World for thousands of years, and the person he missed the most was his mother. The mother who held him in the palm of her hand and kept him in her mouth, afraid that he would melt!
In a flash!
His heart was moved with compassion.
"Come with me to have a look!"
After saying that, Tan Xiu strode toward the square between the stall area and the shop area.
A half-meter high platform was temporarily set up in the center of the square, which was not very big. Several security personnel of the Medicinal Herbs Market were maintaining order. A single bed was placed on the platform of more than 20 square meters, and a shivering little girl was curled up on the bed.
Beside the bed was a middle-aged woman with a miserable expression on her face. She constantly glanced at the crowd around her with eyes full of expectation.
"Everyone, I only have 300,000 left. I beg you, whoever can cure my daughter, I will give all the remaining money to him! The child is too young, she shouldn't bear so much pain. This is Jingmen Island's Medicinal Herbs Market, there must be a lot of Chinese medicine doctors here, I beg you! "
