Overshadowing the Sky: Empress Proud of the World

Chapter 21
Inside the medicine city, people are coming and going, bustling, and Zihua is a world, and it is also raining continuously.

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

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

The pavilions and pavilions in the city are row upon row, stretching to the endless distance, with no end in sight.Nearby, there are many shops, most of which are drug stores.The whole street is full of medicinal fragrance, and the aura is so strong that it seems to melt into water.

"Create the stone! The newly arrived senior old stone in the Northern Territory! Take whatever you open, and you will never renege on your debt!"

As soon as Shi Shi stepped out of the teleportation array, Nanni and her group were attracted by a store full of stones at the door.

Its plaque reads: Shifang, the capital of medicine.

Among all the pharmacies, such a place full of stones suddenly appeared, which is very eye-catching.Moreover, it is located next to the teleportation array, a road that everyone must pass through, and it is labeled with the word "Medicine City", which shows the strength of the forces behind it.

A fine velvet brocade was spread at the entrance of the stone workshop, on which were placed eight stones of different sizes and shapes.

Nannan took a look, these stones seemed to be everywhere, some of them even had mud on them, but they were carefully placed on the expensive brocade, not knowing what they were for.

I saw a young man in splendid clothes pacing squarely, waving a green feather fan, walking unhurriedly to the stone, and began to consider carefully.

Everyone was curious, Zhou Xi muttered to himself:
"When did it open, why don't I know."

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

"Mr. Qing is here, open two pieces to try your hand? The store has new goods. It is said that the stone pit this time is 50 miles away from the ancient mine in the early days. There must be a high probability of containing peerless rare treasures."

The man called Young Master Qing nodded:

"The grand event in the medicine capital is coming soon, today I will try my luck and add some excitement to the grand event."

"You are the son of the Shenyaomen, and wherever you go, there are stars and the moon, and you will show up at the grand event, and you will definitely shine."

Xiaoer flattered her, and Nannan's heart was moved, this person was actually the son of Shenyaomen.

Young Master Qing was in a good mood when he heard the words. He had chosen two stones and was about to open them.

I saw Xiao Er calling out a big man with a beard and a curly beard, five big and three thick, with bulging muscles and exposed blue veins, and looking at his hand, he was holding a three-inch long knife, which was really out of harmony.

The big man nodded to Young Master Qing, which was also an old acquaintance.

The girl and her group concentrated their attention on the big man's next move.

The big man held his breath and concentrated, he put the stone picked by Mr. Qing on a wooden table in the middle, raised his knife and lowered it, and cut off a piece of stone skin like peeling a fruit.

The knife seemed small and exquisite, but it was so sharp. The hard stone was like tofu in front of it, and it was unstoppable.

The big man operated quickly with a flexible technique that was completely inconsistent with his size, and the stone chips flew, and the stone skins fell off one by one, some of which were as thin as paper.

I saw that the stone in the center was getting smaller and smaller until it was the size of a walnut. Seeing this, the big man hit it with a knife, and the stone split open, revealing the white heart of the stone, but nothing.

This is a waste rock.

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

Seeing Young Master Qing's expression was unhappy, the waiter hurriedly urged the big man to cut off a piece.

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

Young Master Qing's mouth twitched, and he sighed:

"As expected, the stones from the ancient mine in the early days with a radius of 50 li are so far away that they are already mysterious. The simple techniques I have learned are completely useless. I really don't know what kind of stones unearthed from the ancient mine will contain. Peerless rare treasures. Anyway, the grand event is coming soon, this grand event is different from the past, so we should make good preparations."

After saying that, he dropped a bag of things and left by himself.

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

Seeing Xiaoer weighing the weight and nodding in satisfaction, Nannan guessed that it should be a transaction between monks.

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

Having known each other for so long, what 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 always read in ancient books every time you say anything?"

Lin Qian smiled and said that she has been reading and learning calligraphy since she was a child.It is said that his ancestor was a monk, but he resolutely returned to vulgarity for a certain woman from a great religion. There are quite a few, from practice to ordinary books, she reads them by herself when she has nothing to do, and benefits a lot.

It's no wonder that Lin Qian was so young and graceful, she lowered her eyebrows and nodded, frowning and smiling, showing an elegant temperament.

She continued:
"There should be some treasure hidden in those stones."

"baby?"

"Well, 'Stones contain rare treasures, like light and dust', that's what it says in ancient books, and not all stones have treasures, only stones in specific places can produce good things."

"I just heard that the Northern Territory Taichu Ancient Mine, Master Lin Qian, do you know?"

"What master, don't make fun of me, I don't know."

But Nannan's heart moved. She remembered that when she followed the old monkey back to the small mountain village, the line of the heavenly master from the Northern Territory mentioned by the old monkey seemed to be related to this.

"Northern Territory..."

With her big eyes shining, she was full of curiosity about this area she had never met before.

Not long after, under Zhou Xi's guidance, they came to a magnificent building.

I saw carved beams and painted buildings here, resplendent and resplendent, with countless pavilions and pavilions.

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

The old man casually raised his eyes, then froze immediately, and stopped writing, only to see Zhou Xi, who had been away for a long time, looking at him with a smile on his face.

"Miss... are you back?"

"Well, Mr. Zhang, I'll come back and get some herbs."

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

The old man was shocked when he saw it. If it was an ordinary medicinal herb, it would be fine, but the ones listed on this list are more amazing than the last, and all of them can be sold for sky-high prices.

"But it's used by Xianmen?"

he asked cautiously.

It's not that they can't get it out, they monopolize the local mortal herb market, and their stocks are amazing.

"No, no, it's my lady, I want to refine medicine, okay, okay, you don't understand after talking about it, take me to get the medicine quickly."

Zhou Xi urged.

The old man really didn't know about cultivation, but he knew that the rich businessman loved his daughter very much, so he didn't delay any longer, called a servant to register for him, and led Zhou Xi and his party to the warehouse.

In the warehouse.

"Wow! The 300-year-old purple salvia! Take it away!"

"The 500-year-old magnolia flower! Take it away!"

"That is, the 800-year-old blood spirit grass?! Take it away!"

Holding the list, Zhou Xi grabbed the last one and threw it into the cloth bag, his big eyes bent into star shapes.

Nannan followed her, carefully observing these spiritual roots.

In other places, it is indeed difficult to find even one of these medicinal herbs, but in this area suspected of being contaminated with fairy blood, it can be cultivated with a little thought.

I saw that the blood spirit grass was as red as blood, without a trace of variegation, as if soaked in blood; the purple salvia ginseng was dotted with purple light, similar to ordinary ginseng, but it was said that there was a congenital medicine pill condensed inside it, and the essence of purple salvia miltiorrhiza was all in it. This pill.The older the age, the more precious the medicine pill is.

"Ha ha……"

The old man smiled and looked at them from behind, not distressed.

"That's all, enough."

Zhou Xi threw the last elixir into the cloth bag, clapped his hands in satisfaction, and said goodbye:
"Thank you Mr. Zhang! I'm going to refine medicine first!"

"Master will be back in a few days, Miss won't stay for a few more days, see Master before leaving?"

"No, no, no! Just tell my father that I'll take these herbs!"

She smiled sweetly at the old man, pulled Nanan and Lin Qian up and prepared to leave.

Xuan Yao stared, Zhou Xi directly threw the big bag full of medicinal herbs to him.

Even though the bag was a little glowing, and the aura was so strong that it could even overflow through the gaps, but it was true!of!Shen!
Seeing this, Nannan didn't dare to take it into her own sea of ​​suffering, for fear that if she went in, she wouldn't be able to get out.

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

Xuan Yao burst into tears:

"You are so kind, girl."

A group of people went straight to the sky furnace located outside the medicine capital, preparing to refine medicine.

Outside the gate of Zhou's house, several figures saw them coming out excitedly, and then saw their bulging cloth bags, exchanged glances, nodded, and followed with malicious intentions.
