A surprised expression appeared on Zhang Xinya's beautiful face. She didn't expect that Tan Xiu would be able to guess her father's illness just by saying the name of a medicinal herb!
Could it be!
He's a Divine Doctor?
Just as this thought emerged in her mind, it was immediately expelled from her mind.
If someone else was a Divine Doctor, she might believe it! But to say that Tan Xiu was a Divine Doctor, she wouldn't believe it even if she was beaten to death. After all, Tan Xiu was too young, and those Chinese medicine practitioners who were proficient in Chinese medicine were all old.
"It's Virtual Fire Syndrome."
Zhang Xinya nodded bitterly.
Tan Xiu said, "River Serpent Single is a good medicine to treat Virtual Fire Syndrome. The effect will be better if it's matched with Silverblue Grass. Forget it. Since Ouyang Lulu spoke for you, I'll help you to the end. "
After saying that …
He dialed Chen Zhizhong's cell number.
"Master, are you looking for me?" Chen Zhizhong's voice came from the phone.
Tan Xiu asked, "There's something I need to talk to you about. Do you know Zhang Xinya? "
"I know her!" Chen Zhizhong said.
"Yeah." Tan Xiu said, "She needs River Serpent Single. She needs a Creeping Snake List. Help her look for it. Give her a discount on the price. She's Ouyang Lulu's friend. "
"Alright, I'll contact her later," Chen Zhizhong said without hesitation.
"She's with me now. Tell her now!" Tan Xiu said.
After saying that!
Tan Xiu handed the phone to Zhang Xinya and lightly said, "It's Chen Zhizhong's call. You talk."
Zhang Xinya was pleasantly surprised. She thanked him gratefully, took the phone and said, "Hello, I'm Zhang Xinya. Are you Uncle Chen?"
Chen Zhizhong said, "It's me! My Master has just told me about the situation. I'll go all out to find this medicinal herb called River Serpent Single. Once I find it, I'll immediately inform you. "
"Your Master?"
Zhang Xinya was dumbfounded. A confused look hung in her eyes as she subconsciously asked.
Chen Zhizhong said with a smile, "So you don't know that the owner of this phone is my Master! Alright, this matter is settled. Help me convey my regards to Master. I won't be talking to him anymore. "
"Alright …"
Zhang Xinya replied and then heard the busy tone from the phone. A shocked expression hung on her face as she looked at Tang Xiu as though she was looking at an alien.
Master?
Tan Xiu is Chen Zhizhong's master?
Oh my god!
How was this possible?
Who was Chen Zhizhong? He was the Endless Virtue Pharmaceutical's Big Boss, a multi-millionaire with a net worth of tens of billions. With his status and identity, how could he acknowledge a young man in his twenties as his master?
Zhang Xinya swallowed a mouthful of saliva and asked with a trembling voice, "Tang … Tan Xiu, are you really Chen Zhizhong, Boss Chen's master?"
"Is there a problem?"
Tan Xiu asked calmly.
Zhang Xinya shook her head like a rattle drum. She waved her hand and said, "No problem, of course. It's just … I'm just a little shocked. By the way, thank you, thank you so much. Without your call, I'm afraid it would be very difficult for me to meet Boss Chen! "
"You're welcome," Tan Xiu said with a faint smile. "As long as you don't speak ill of me in front of Ouyang Lulu when you see her later, I'll be satisfied. Well, I've done what I can. I still have to catch the plane, so I'll take my leave first. "
"I'll see you off!" Zhang Xinya quickly said.
Tan Xiu stopped her and said straightforwardly, "I don't want tomorrow's news headline to be 'Big Singer Zhang Xinya Secretly Dating a Mysterious Young Man at the Airport'. So, stay here!"
Having said that …
Then, he carried his black travel bag and walked toward the boarding gate.
Zhang Xinya stared blankly at Tan Xiu's back as he left. Her heart was filled with all sorts of emotions, sour, sweet, bitter, spicy, and salty. She never dared to dream that she would encounter such a bizarre thing in her life, and meet such a strange person!
Originally!
This was just a chance encounter due to a combination of factors. She lost her luggage and borrowed a mobile phone. But unexpectedly, she accomplished her purpose of coming to Star City, and even met her good sister's friend, who seemed to have high attainments in Chinese medicine.
Tianjin City!
Because it was close to the Imperial Capital, Tianjin City's development speed was exceptionally fast. High-rise buildings stood in great numbers, row upon row of shops with a dazzling lineup of goods. The traffic network extended in all directions, and the endless stream of traffic converged into a dragon.
It was already close to evening when Tan Xiu arrived at Tianjin City. He dialed the mysterious old man's phone number at the airport and asked for the address, and then hurried to the Tianjin City Antique Trading Market.
"Ancient Gate of the Wasteland".
The strange name of the shop, and the gloomy decoration style of the shop.
Tan Xiu carried his travel bag and stepped into the most remote shop in the antique trading market. An oppressive feeling floated in his heart. Black beams, black walls, and even the furniture inside were all composed of black. Only the rows of antiques and antiques on the black shelves could be seen in other colors.
At this moment …
Aside from two customers who were looking at the antiques and antiques on the first floor of the shop, there wasn't even a staff member. Tan Xiu was secretly surprised. Was the owner of this shop not afraid that customers would steal the things in the shop? However, in order to find the old man who spoke to him on the phone as soon as possible, he immediately released his Divine Sense and found three people in a private room on the second floor. Apart from an old man with a head full of white hair and reading glasses, there was also a middle-aged man and a woman. The three of them were staring at an exquisitely carved coffin on the table in front of them. It was a foot long and half a foot high.
"That is …"
Tan Xiu's pupils shrank. Using his Divine Sense, his attention was focused on the coffin. He didn't expect to see Demon Stones on Earth.
Demon Stones were essential treasures for demonic cultivators in the Devil World. They contained a large amount of demonic power, which could be absorbed and refined into one's own cultivation and could improve one's strength. It was the same as the Immortal Stones in the Immortal World. Immortals could absorb the immortal power in the Immortal Stones and refine it to improve their own strength.
"Get it!"
Tang Xiu's eyes flashed with brilliance.
If it were an Immortal Stone, it would have a mediocre effect on Tan Xiu. But Demon Stones were different. The Heavenly Art of Cosmic Genesis he cultivated was, in fact, a cultivation technique to shape a Demon God's Divine Body. If he could absorb demonic power, it would be of great help to shape his Divine Body.
Tan Xiu took a deep breath and strode to the second floor. He stopped at the door and then knocked on it.
"You are?"
The door was opened. The silver-haired old man looked at Tan Xiu with a curious look in his eyes.
"I'm Tan Xiu from Star City," said Tan Xiu.
The silver-haired old man suddenly understood. However, he immediately frowned because he didn't expect that Tan Xiu was so young. After hesitating for a moment, he said, "You see, I'm old and muddle-headed. You just called me. Umm … wait for a while! Some people came to my place to sell old objects. I need to entertain them. "
"Old objects?" Tan Xiu pretended to be surprised. "Can I follow and have a look?"
The silver-haired old man wanted to refuse, but he recalled that Tan Xiu came to buy his precious stone materials, so he reluctantly nodded.
He entered the room.
The silver-haired old man seemed to have forgotten Tan Xiu's existence as he continued to move the small coffin with the middle-aged man and woman.
"I can't open it! You said it's an ancestral heirloom! Could it be that none of your ancestors can open it? "Finally, the silver-haired old man couldn't help but ask.
The middle-aged man was dressed in plain clothes and looked simple and honest. He immediately shook his head and said, "The elders in my family originally thought that this coffin was inauspicious. So, they left it in the ancestral hall of our family. Recently, there was a big fire in our village. More than a dozen houses were burned, including our ancestral hall. We thought that everything inside had been burned, but we didn't expect to find that the coffin was still intact when we cleaned up the ruins. We also wanted to open it, but we couldn't damage it no matter how we smashed it with hammers or burned it. It's too hard. I don't know how hard a diamond is, but I'm sure that the material of this coffin is definitely harder than a diamond. "
"Yes, it's indeed very hard." The silver-haired old man nodded. "I just tried using an electric drill and a cutting machine, but I still couldn't destroy it. Also, this is the first time I've seen this thing. I can't tell what material it's made of, nor do I know from which dynasty it was passed down. As for the valuation … it's really hard for me to say. "
The middle-aged man and woman glanced at each other. Both of them looked disappointed.
They had visited more than a dozen antique shops, but none of the shop owners or antique experts could figure out the value of this coffin. Even the one with the highest value was only willing to pay them 50,000 yuan.
"Old Man, please tell us the price," asked the middle-aged man. "We'll sell it to you if we think it's suitable. But if we think the price is not suitable, we'll leave now."
The silver-haired old man had obviously considered the price issue. Upon hearing the middle-aged man's inquiry, he stretched out a finger and said, "100,000 yuan. I'll buy it."
The middle-aged man and woman still looked disappointed after hearing the price. The middle-aged woman then asked with an expectant look, "Can you give us a higher price? We're in dire need of money, so we can't sell it for 100,000 yuan! "
The silver-haired old man was silent for a moment. Then, he slowly said, "120,000 yuan. This is the highest price I can offer, because I'm also taking a big risk to buy this object! If you can accept this price, we can trade now. If not, then I won't send it off. "
"I'm sorry, but I can't sell it for 120,000 yuan," said the middle-aged man bitterly.
After saying that!
He wrapped the coffin with the yellow cloth again, his mood was particularly gloomy.
"Wait!"
Tan Xiu suddenly opened his mouth.
The middle-aged man stared blankly. Even the middle-aged woman and the silver-haired old man looked surprised.
Tan Xiu looked at the middle-aged man and asked, "Can you tell me if something happened to your family? Are you in urgent need of money? "
"Yeah!" The middle-aged man bitterly said. "A big fire broke out at home. The whole house was burned down, and my father was also severely burned. My husband and I borrowed a lot of money to treat my father's injury. If this thing can't be sold for 300,000 yuan, we won't be able to pay off our debt. "
