"Young Master, you are?"
The shopkeeper's face was pale. He didn't know what Ning Qi meant.
Zi Yun came to her senses. She stepped forward and asked nervously, "Husband, can you save Shopkeeper Fu?"
"Hah …"
The doctor sneered. "Shopkeeper Fu's heart meridian has been severed. How can he be saved?"
Since he said that the shopkeeper couldn't be saved, wasn't it the same as slapping him in the face?
"What does a severed heart meridian have to do with whether or not he can be saved?"
Ning Qi smiled at the doctor. He then walked in front of the shopkeeper and gently pressed his hand on the shopkeeper's chest.
A stream of true energy slowly flowed into Shopkeeper Fu's body. After about a dozen breaths, his complexion gradually turned from pale to rosy under the watchful eyes of the crowd.
The doctor was dumbfounded. He then reacted and sneered, "It's just the final radiance of a setting sun."
"Huh …"
The shopkeeper suddenly jumped up and paced back and forth a few steps. Then, he looked at Ning Qi with surprise and said, "Young master, my body doesn't hurt anymore!"
"Shopkeeper Fu, are you really alright?"
Zi Yun was stunned.
In just a dozen breaths, Ning Qi actually managed to save a seriously injured person that the doctor said couldn't be saved?
Moreover, looking at the shopkeeper's walking posture, it didn't seem like he was seriously injured or that his heart meridian was severed.
The doctor was dumbfounded. He still didn't believe that the shopkeeper could survive. However, after waiting for the time it took to brew a cup of tea, the shopkeeper didn't seem to have any intention of dying. The doctor's face turned pale, and his legs began to tremble uncontrollably.
"Miss, I'm really fine."
The shopkeeper was a little surprised. He then immediately cupped his fist and bowed to Ning Qi. "Thank you for saving my life, Young Master!"
"No need for formalities. You were also injured for the Zi Mansion. Tell me in detail what happened."
Ning Qi smiled.
When the shopkeeper heard this, he glanced at the doctor. When the doctor saw this, he quickly said to everyone, "Farewell, farewell. I will take my leave first."
He then turned around and left in a fluster. His back was extremely disheveled.
After the doctor left, the shopkeeper slowly recounted the entire incident.
As the Head Shopkeeper of the Elixir Shop, he would often come into contact with some martial artists. Occasionally, he would also cooperate with some small martial arts families.
This time, Zi Yun asked him to sell the two Qi and Blood Ointment, so he used his own connections to find a martial artist he was familiar with. Then, through his connections, he finally got in touch with a martial arts family that was only four hundred miles away from Jiangyin City.
After successfully finding a buyer, the shopkeeper personally went to sell the Blood Qi Ointment. He felt that if he wanted to sell it for a good price, he had to show his sincerity. Moreover, he was afraid that people wouldn't believe in the efficacy of the Blood Qi Ointment, so he had to show up in person. Otherwise, he would always be treated as a scammer.
Who would have thought that as soon as he arrived at the martial arts aristocratic family and talked about the efficacy of the Blood and Qi Ointment, he would be beaten up and even the Blood and Qi Ointment would be snatched away.
"Son-in-law, they really don't distinguish right from wrong. Even Brother Tiger, who led the way for me, was seriously injured by them and is still being detained there …"
Shopkeeper Fu smiled bitterly.
"I think they think you're a liar."
Ning Qi smiled faintly.
"Even if they think I'm a liar, they should investigate clearly before making a move …"
Shopkeeper Fu was a little speechless.
"How about this, you take me there. I originally planned to sell the two Blood and Qi Ointment for one million taels, but now it seems that the price is still too low.
An ordinary person can immediately become a second-rate martial artist with just one set of it. With the strength of a thousand catties, it would save them more than ten years, or even decades of hard work.
I plan to sell such a treasure for five million taels in the future, and only sell ten sets a year. "
Ning Qi smiled.
Zi Yun's eyes lit up slightly. If he really sold it for five million taels and sold ten sets a year, wouldn't he earn fifty million taels?
And the raw materials needed to make ten sets of Blood and Qi Ointment would at most be worth a million taels …
The profit in between was simply frightening!
…
"Descended Tiger, you've become quite bold recently. How dare you collude with others to swindle our Chen family? Do you really think that just because everyone in the Chen family is a martial artist, we can be bullied?"
In a training field, a burly man was tied to a wooden stake. His entire body was covered in scars. At this moment, there were a few figures surrounding this burly man. One of them held a whip in his hand, and with every sentence he spoke, he would lash out at the burly man's body.
"You're just a mediocre warrior, yet you're still so daring. I really admire you."
Smack!
Another whip.
Descended Tiger trembled from the beating, and then he said with difficulty, "Boss Chen, I really didn't lie to you. Shopkeeper Fu's reputation in the Spiritual Medicine Hall is absolutely trustworthy. Since he said that the Blood and Qi Ointment has such a miraculous effect, there's no reason for him to lie. If he really lied to you, we wouldn't be able to walk out of this place alive."
His voice was extremely hoarse because he had not drunk or drunk for several days.
"Hehe, as long as you use the Blood and Qi Ointment, you can become a second-rate martial artist. Hahaha …"
The middle-aged man whom Descended Tiger addressed as Boss Chen could not help but laugh at the sky. Then, his expression turned cold, and he shouted at Descended Tiger coldly,
"You've been cultivating martial arts for decades, but you're still second-rate. Although our Chen family is a martial arts family with our own martial arts heritage, it takes decades to nurture a second-rate martial artist.
"Among this generation of young disciples, only one has entered the second-rate, and the rest are all third-rate. Only my father and I have barely stepped into the first-rate.
Although our strength is not too high in the Jianghu, when others mention our Chen family, who doesn't give us a thumbs up? With my father's and my strength, we can easily become a sect leader! "
He paused. "You're actually telling me that the Blood and Qi Ointment can transform an ordinary person who doesn't know martial arts into a second-rate martial artist in just a few days? Tell me, are you guys greedy for money, or are we too stupid? "
"I …"
Descended Tiger was speechless.
At this moment, a young man hurried over. His face carried a sliver of joy, a sliver of surprise, and a sliver of panic. All sorts of emotions were mixed together, causing his expression to look extremely twisted.
"Father …"
The young man came in front of Boss Chen and cupped his hands.
"Have you tested it? Is that Blood and Qi Ointment useful?"
Boss Chen looked at Descended Tiger with a cold smile and said calmly.
"Father, Little Brother, he … has already advanced to the second-rate."
The young man said in a low voice.
"Advanced to the second-rate, hehe …"
Boss Chen continued to laugh coldly, but after a few breaths, he suddenly felt that something was wrong. Descended Tiger suddenly raised his head and looked at the young man with sparkling eyes.
"What did you say? Your little brother is only fifteen years old this year, and he hasn't even touched the third-rate. You said that he has advanced to the second-rate? "
Boss Chen looked at the young man with a stunned expression.
"Father, it's absolutely true. That Blood and Qi Ointment … does have such a miraculous effect …"
The young man said with a bitter expression.
Of the two Blood and Qi Ointment, one was destroyed by Boss Chen in a fit of anger, and the other was used on his little brother.
He was only a third-rate martial artist, and he had not even stepped into the second-rate. In the end, his little brother was one step ahead of him and had stepped into the second-rate …
"Descended Tiger, what do you think the shopkeeper's name is? He … what is his background?"
Boss Chen's heart suddenly twitched. He immediately looked at Descended Tiger and asked anxiously.
