Chapter 133 Pharmacy Clerk
His lips trembled slightly, he hesitated to speak, his face filled with a mixture of disbelief and emotion. Han Yi's words were like warm sunshine, dispelling the gloom and inferiority in his heart, and making him feel a warmth and sense of belonging he had never felt before.
The face, which was originally distorted by pain, softened slightly with emotion.
At this moment, Su Yao took out a pill from her storage bag, walked towards Lu Xuefeng, and whispered, "Take this pill."
Lu Xuefeng struggled to lift his head, looked at the pill that gleamed with a strange light, hesitated for a moment, and then swallowed it.
After taking the pill, his tightly furrowed brows gradually relaxed, and the pain lessened.
Su Yao looked at Han Yi and said, "This Spiritual Pain Relief Pill can temporarily alleviate his pain. We should not stay here any longer. Let's go to Qingmu City immediately to buy healing pills to save him."
Her eyes were calm as she looked around, pondering her itinerary.
Han Yi nodded, and the group immediately rushed towards Qingmu City.
Half a day later, the group spotted a city in the distance.
The city stands tall on the land, its outline clear and its scale grand.
The city gate was tall and wide, wide enough for several carriages to pass side by side. Above the gate was a plaque with the three characters "Qingmu City" written in a vigorous and majestic style.
The city gates were wide open, and the bustling scene inside the city could be vaguely seen.
Upon entering the city, one immediately senses the vibrant atmosphere of everyday life.
The streets are wide, with smooth and flat bluestone pavement, and there are many shops on both sides, with vendors calling out their wares constantly.
In the pharmacy, the clerk dispenses medicine, and the shopkeeper checks the accounts.
Upon arriving at the pharmacy, Po Yue called out to the shop assistant.
"Hey buddy, come here."
The waiter walked over slowly, glanced at him impatiently, and asked, "What is it?"
Po Yue asked again, "Do you have any quick healing pills here?"
The shop assistant scoffed, "Epiphyllums? Only the Jade Cauldron Mystic Sect has them. How could an ordinary pharmacy like ours have them? You don't look like a poor person. How can you be so ignorant?"
Po Yue's face turned red with anger, and he clenched his fists as if about to explode, but he suppressed his anger because he wanted to find out more information, and asked him again.
Where is the Jade Cauldron Mystic Sect?
The waiter sneered disdainfully, "Hmph, you want to go to the Jade Cauldron Mystic Sect? It's on Lingyun Peak, fifty miles north of Qingmu City."
Upon hearing this, Po Yue was about to report back to Han Yi when the waiter called out in a sarcastic tone.
"Oh, you're really going? With your abilities, you probably won't even be able to get through the mountain gate. You'll just be making a wasted trip, hahaha!"
Upon hearing this, Po Yue and the others paused, wanting to crush him, but ultimately refrained from arguing with him.
Just as they turned around, Tuoba Xun'er suddenly appeared, slowly extending her hand to hand a gold bead to the shopkeeper.
The waiter's mocking expression froze instantly. His eyes widened as he stared intently at Jinzhu, his mouth slightly agape, his face filled with astonishment.
A moment later, his expression changed drastically, filled with a fawning smile, and he bent over, reverting to the humble demeanor he used when receiving distinguished guests.
"Oh dear, young lady, what are you doing... hehe... I was blind to your greatness!" The waiter's voice trembled as he gripped the gold bead tightly in his hands, as if afraid it would disappear.
Seeing the shopkeeper's sycophantic manner, Tuoba Xun'er, though contemptuous, forced herself to say, "Yu Ding Xuan Zong is too far away, and my younger brother is injured and cannot go. Do you know any other way to obtain the pills?"
The shopkeeper, no longer arrogant, but with a glint of greed in his eyes, quickly replied, "Miss, you've come to the right person! There's a pill hall of the Jade Cauldron Profound Sect in Qingmu City, right on Chunhua Street in the city center. Their pills are of superior quality; as long as you have money, you can buy any kind of pill."
The waiter looked at Tuoba Xun'er with a fawning smile and said, "Miss, is there anything else you'd like to ask? I'll tell you everything I know!"
Tuoba Xun'er understood the situation, glanced at him, and said, "Alright, it's nothing."
The shop assistant nodded repeatedly, stepped aside, and examined the gold beads in his hand.
"Gentlemen, if you ever need my help again, please feel free to come to me." He watched them leave with a fawning look in his eyes.
At this moment, the waiter was no longer the arrogant and domineering man he had been before; he was now completely subservient, wishing he could treat Tuoba Xun'er and the others like ancestors.
When the group arrived at Chunhua Street, they could see the magnificent Jade Cauldron Profound Sect Pill Hall from afar.
The Dan Hall stands in the middle of the street, resembling a magnificent palace, exuding an aura of solemnity and majesty.
The main gate of the Dan Hall is guarded by eight Foundation Establishment experts.
Upon entering the Dan Hall, a rich aroma of medicinal herbs wafts through the air.
The lobby was extremely spacious, with bright light shining on rows of exquisite medicine cabinets.
The medicine cabinet was filled with all kinds of pills, colorful and varied in shape.
Some resemble smooth, beautiful jade, some are like translucent crystal, and others gleam with a strange light.
There are so many kinds of elixirs that it's dazzling; some are for healing, some for strengthening the body, some for detoxifying... each with its unique effects.
There were also many customers in the Dan Hall, all dressed in luxurious clothes.
Some were dressed in exquisitely embroidered silks and satins, some wore magnificent cloaks with jeweled edges, and others wore tall crowns and jade belts, their demeanor exuding nobility.
They were undoubtedly wealthy people. Inside the hall, they carefully selected elixirs and whispered with the shop assistants, their tone revealing a sense of superiority.
The staff are well-trained, respectful, and enthusiastic, and they serve each customer with extra care.
Just as Han Yi was about to call the waiter to inquire about the price, a middle-aged woman appeared in front of him without warning.
She wore a dark purple robe embroidered with exquisite and simple patterns, and her hair was neatly tied up with a green jade hairpin.
His face showed signs of age, but his eyes remained sharp and piercing.
Standing still, one can feel a powerful sense of oppression emanating from the air.
After the middle-aged woman appeared, she immediately smiled and waved to the waiter, who quickly withdrew, his attitude respectful.
Then, she turned to Han Yi and the others, her face full of polite smiles, which contained both flattery and an indescribable meaning.
"Distinguished guests, welcome to the Jade Cauldron Profound Sect Pill Hall." Her tone was gentle yet authoritative, possessing a calming magic.
She moved gracefully to Han Yi and the others, bowed slightly, and said elegantly, "I am the head of the Pill Hall. I would like to know what your needs are, and I will do my best to meet them."
As she spoke, her gaze swept quickly over Han Yi and the others, her eyes flashing with a sharp light.
Han Yi spoke calmly.
"I need some pills that can quickly heal injuries. How much do they cost?"
The middle-aged woman smiled knowingly, her smile concealing a secret, and said slowly, "What a coincidence, I happen to have a bottle of the pills that you need, young master. You can take it as a gift from me."
