Inside the medicine capital, people were coming and going, bustling, and the world was transformed into a world, and it was actually drizzling.

If you look carefully, you will find that there are some other races mixed in the crowd.

Some are born with two horns, some have one eye, and some even maintain their original shape, using their snake bodies to bargain with a shopkeeper, arguing endlessly, which is very funny.

The city's pavilions and pavilions are lined up in rows, stretching into the endless distance with no end in sight. Nearby, there are many shops, most of which are medicine shops. The whole street is filled with medicinal fragrance, and the spiritual energy is so strong that it seems to turn into water.

"Here we open the stone! The newly arrived high-quality old stone from the Northern Territory! Take whatever you find out and never refuse!"

As soon as Hajime stepped out of the teleportation array, Nannan and the others were attracted by a shop full of stones at the door.

Its plaque reads: Shifang, the Capital of Medicine.

Among all the pharmacies, a place full of stones suddenly appeared, which was very eye-catching. Moreover, it is located next to the teleportation array, a road that everyone must pass through, and is named the Medical City. The strength of the forces behind it is evident.

At the entrance of the stone square is a piece of fine velvet brocade, with eight stones of different sizes and shapes placed on it.

Nannan took a look. These stones seemed to be everywhere. Some of them were even covered with mud, but they were carefully placed on expensive brocade. She didn't know what they were doing.

I saw a young man in splendid clothes walking squarely, shaking a blue feather fan, and walked slowly to the stone, and began to consider it carefully.

Everyone was curious, Zhou Xi muttered secretly:

"How come I don't know when it was opened?"

The waiter in the shop was very enthusiastic when he saw the young master coming. He must be a regular customer.

"Young Master Qing is here to come, do you want to try your hand at two pieces? The store has newly purchased goods. It is said that the stone pit this time is 500,000 miles away from the Taichu ancient mine. There must be a high probability of containing peerless treasures."

The man known as Young Master Qing nodded:

"The grand gathering of the Medicine City is coming soon. Today I will try my luck to add some excitement to the grand gathering."

"You are the master of the divine medicine sect. Wherever you go, you will be surrounded by stars. If you show up at a grand event, you will definitely be radiant."

The waiter flattered her, and Nannan's heart moved. This man was actually the Master of the Divine Medicine Sect.

Young Master Qing was in a good mood when he heard this. He chose two stones and was about to open them.

The waiter called out to a big man with a beard and a beard. He was tall and thick, with bulging muscles and exposed veins. Looking at his hand, he was holding a three-inch long knife, which was really out of place.

The big man nodded to Mr. Qing, as he was an old acquaintance.

Nannan and the others concentrated their attention on the big man's next move.

I saw the big man holding his breath and concentrating, placing the stone picked by Young Master Qing on the wooden table in the middle, raising the knife with his hand, and cutting off a piece of stone skin like a piece of fruit.

The knife seemed small and exquisite, but it was so sharp. The hard stone was like tofu in front of it, and it opened without any obstruction. Nannan was secretly stunned.

The big man operated quickly with a dexterity that was completely incompatible with his size. Stone chips flew away, and strips of stone peeled off. Some of them were as thin as paper, and when they fell to the ground through the light, they immediately fell into powder.

I saw that the stone in the center was getting smaller and smaller, until it was the size of a walnut. The big man saw this and knocked it with the handle of his knife. The stone cracked open, revealing the white stone core, and nothing.

This is a piece of waste rock.

"Next piece, next piece, hurry up, hurry up."

Seeing Mr. Qing's unhappy expression, the waiter hurriedly urged the big man to cut off a piece quickly.

The second stone was exactly the same. After being peeled off like skin by the big man, nothing was found.

The corners of Mr. Qing's mouth twitched and he sighed:

"As expected of the Taichu ancient mine, the stones within a radius of 500,000 miles are already mysterious and unpredictable at such a distance. The superficial skills I have learned are completely useless. I really don't know that the stones unearthed from that ancient mine will contain What a peerless treasure. Anyway, the grand event is coming soon. This event is different from the past, so we should prepare well."

After saying that, he dropped a bag of things and left on his own.

Nannan was keenly aware that the bag contained a huge amount of life essence, but she didn't know what it was.

Seeing the waiter weighing the weight and nodding with satisfaction, Nannan guessed that it was something traded between the monks.

"I have seen it in ancient books..."

After knowing each other for so long, the thing Lin Qian said the most was, "I have seen it in ancient books..."

Xuan Yao interrupted her:

"I said Lin Qian, how many ancient books have you read? Why do you read it in ancient books every time you say something?"

Lin Qian smiled and said that she had been reading and practicing calligraphy since she was a child. It is said that his ancestor was a monk, but he resolutely returned to secular life for a certain religious woman. They stayed and flew together like a couple of gods and immortals. By Grandpa Lin Qian's generation, there was no trace of spiritual practice. Various books left by his ancestors There were quite a few, ranging from spiritual books to ordinary books. She read them by herself when she had nothing to do, and benefited a lot.

No wonder Lin Qian is so elegant even at such a young age. She lowers her eyebrows, nods her head, and smiles, showing her elegant temperament.

She continued:

"There must be some treasure hidden in those stones."

"baby?"

"Well, 'stones contain rare treasures, and light and dust' are said in ancient books, and not all stones have treasures. Only stones in specific places can produce good things."

"I just heard about the Taichu ancient mine in the Northern Territory. Master Lin Qian, do you know about it?"

"Master, don't make fun of me, I don't know either."

However, Nannan's heart moved. She remembered that when she followed Old Monkey back to the small mountain village, Old Monkey had mentioned the lineage of the Northern Territory Yuan Tianshi, which seemed to be related to this.

"Northern Territory..."

Her big eyes twinkled, full of curiosity about this area she had never seen before.

Not long after, under the guidance of Zhou Xi, they arrived in front of a magnificent building.

I saw here a magnificent place with carved beams and painted buildings, numerous pavilions and pavilions, among which there were many figures, who looked like servants, coming and going in a hurry.

The door was open, and from time to time a strong man carried piles of herbs on his back and unloaded them on the ground. An old man wearing glasses and looking extremely shrewd was writing and drawing in a notebook.

The old man raised his eyes casually and was immediately stunned and stopped writing. He only saw Zhou Xi, who had been away for a long time, looking at him with a smile.

"Miss...are you back?"

"Well, hello, Mr. Zhang, I'll come back to get some medicinal materials."

Zhou Xi replied sweetly, and then handed him a list.

The old man was shocked when he saw it. If it were just an ordinary medicinal herb, that would be fine. But each one listed on this list was more amazing than the last, and each one could be sold for a sky-high price.

"But is it used by the Immortal Sect?"

he asked cautiously.

It's not that they can't get it out, they have a monopoly on the local mortal herb market and their stock is staggering.

"No, no, it's not. Miss, I want to make some medicine. Okay, okay, you don't understand even after I tell you. Take me to get the medicine quickly."

Zhou Xi urged.

The old man really didn't know anything about spiritual practice. He just knew that the wealthy businessman doted on his daughter. He immediately called a servant to register for him without further delay, and then led Zhou Xi and his party to the warehouse.

Inside the warehouse.

"Wow! Purple salvia that is three hundred years old! Take it away!"

"The magnolia flower is 500 years old! Take it away!"

"That's the eight-hundred-year-old blood spirit grass?! Take it, take it!"

Zhou Xi took the list, grabbed the one he saw and threw it into the bag, his big eyes turned into stars.

Nannan followed her and carefully observed these spiritual roots.

It is indeed difficult to find even one of these herbs in other places, but in this area that is suspected to be contaminated with fairy blood, it can be cultivated with some careful attention.

I saw that the blood spirit grass was as red as blood, with no trace of color throughout its body, as if it was soaked in blood; the purple salvia miltiorrhiza was dotted with purple light, similar to ordinary ginseng, but it is said that there is an innate medicinal elixir condensed inside, and all the essence of purple salvia miltiorrhiza is in it. This pill. The older it goes, the more precious the elixir becomes.

"hehe……"

The old man looked at them with a smile from behind, not feeling distressed.

"That's it, that's enough."

Zhou Xi threw the last elixir into the bag, clapped his hands with satisfaction, and said goodbye:

"Thank you, Mr. Zhang! I'm going to make the medicine first!"

"The master will be back in the near future. Miss, I won't stay for a few more days. Can I meet the master before leaving?"

"No, no! Just tell my father and I will take these herbs!"

She smiled sweetly at the old man, picked up her daughter and Lin Qian and prepared to leave.

Xuan Yao stared, and Zhou Xi threw the big bag filled with medicinal herbs directly to him.

Even though the bag was dotted with glow and the spiritual energy was so strong that it could even overflow through the gaps, it was still true! of! Shen!

When Nannan saw this, she did not dare to put it into her own sea of ​​suffering, fearing that she would not be able to get out.

So she asked Mr. Zhang for some cloth bags to hold the medicinal materials, divided the medicinal materials into four parts, one for each person, and carried them with her.

Xuan Yao burst into tears:

"Nanny, you are so kind."

The group of people went straight to the sky furnace located outside the medicine capital to prepare the medicine.

Outside the gate of Zhou's house, several figures saw them walking out excitedly, and then saw their bulging bags. They exchanged glances with each other, nodded, and then followed them with ill intentions.
