The middle-aged beautiful woman continued: "Are the two young masters going to buy the scraps of lapis lazuli wood?"

Dahu nodded.

"Please come with me!" the beautiful middle-aged woman said with a smile.

The tiger people were all a little dazed, and Leng Rui also felt as if a spring breeze was blowing on his face, making people follow him unconsciously.

"Xiaowu, if guests come, just say I'm not here."

"I know!" the guy agreed quickly.

Wearing a white dress, she walked slowly in front of her, and from time to time, a burst of fragrance wafted by.

Dahu's face was a little red, his ears were flushed, and his breathing was heavy.

Leng Rui didn't care, he didn't have any reaction except that it smelled good.

There was a small living room in front of it. A beautiful middle-aged woman led the two of them in and closed the door.

"My surname is Yan, my nickname is Yingying. This shop is opened by my father. I don't know what I call my two young masters."

"Xu Dahu", Dahu answered first.

"Leng Rui", Leng Rui then replied.

Yan Yingying smiled and said: "Yueguangyuan has done a bit too much in recent years because of its wealth."

"Yeah! I'm always bullying people!" Dahu said in a rough voice.

"Alas! It's a pity that I am a weak woman, and I can't help you even if I want to." Yan Yingying sighed softly, and her eyes seemed to be filled with mist.

"It's okay! We are not afraid of them." Dahu said.

"Yes! I heard that the two young heroes were so brave that they destroyed them in one fell swoop." Yan Yingying's eyes were filled with approval.

"Hehe!" Dahu smiled, a little proud of himself.

"Thank you, Shopkeeper Yan, for the compliment. In fact, Senior Brother and I didn't do much. We all relied on the talisman left by Master." Leng Rui added.

Yan Yingying glanced at Leng Rui meaningfully, turned her eyes, and said with a smile: "Look, you are just talking nonsense! You have forgotten the real thing. Just now Xiaowu said you want sawdust?"

"My master likes to use this wood to make fires. He said that the elixirs produced are of good quality. We brothers have no money, so we have to buy some scraps, sawdust and other things to deal with." Leng Rui didn't wait for Dahu to say anything, and answered first.

"Keke! Little master, I do have some scraps, but I didn't expect them to be useful at the time, so I don't know where they were thrown." Yan Yingying said with a sweet smile.

After hearing this, Leng Rui could only secretly cry out that it was a pity.

"It doesn't matter, then let's spend more money to buy a piece of wood!" Leng Rui said with a smile.

"Master Xiao Leng, don't worry! I'll show you something!"

Yan Yingying smiled mysteriously, turned around and went out.

After a while, she came back with a jade bottle in her hand.

"Master Xiao Leng, look what this is?" Yan Yingying said with a smile.

Leng Rui took the jade bottle, opened the lid, and looked inside. There were some gray-black fruit ice-like things, which seemed to be slightly green.

Put your nose close to the mouth of the bottle, gently fan the top of the bottle a few times with your hand, and smell the smell carefully.

Looking at the color and smelling it are standard chemical operations.

A pure scent of wood came, Leng Rui's heart moved and his face changed slightly.

"Shopkeeper Yan, this is it?" Leng Rui suppressed the fluctuation in his heart.

"Master Xiao Leng, this is my father's treasure. He said he would give it to a destined person." Zheng Yingying did not answer directly.

Leng Rui was a little cautious. As the saying goes, "No reward for no merit", it is even more nonsense to give it to a "destined person". You may be asked to repay the favor in the future.

What's more, he doesn't know what it is yet, but he is sure that it must be something of great value.

Leng Rui put down the bottle, shook his head and said, "Shopkeeper Yan, you're too polite. Senior brother and I haven't even left school yet, so we don't dare to waste good things."

Yan Yingying was a little surprised. She was sure that these two people came here just for the contents of the bottle.

However, this teenage boy refused without even asking about the contents of the bottle. This kind of character is rare.

"Don't you want to know what this is?" Zhan Yingying became even more interested.

"Shopkeeper, my senior brother and I have something to do, so we have to say goodbye!" Leng Rui stood up, gave a salute, and was about to leave.

"Slow down!" Yan Yingying stretched out her hand to stop Leng Rui.

"Is there anything else, Mr. Yan?" Leng Rui's tone became a little cold.

Why, are you buying and selling by force?

Yan Yingying smiled and said: "Master Xiao Leng, don't be impatient. Let me finish my words before leaving."

"Please speak!" Leng Rui said calmly.

"Master Xiao Leng, do you know that every tree has a pith?"

"I don't know! But it seems there is, right?" This is a question, and Leng Rui is really not sure.

"Everything in the world, as long as it is alive, will have a life line on its body, but the expression is different. For example, people are called spinal cord, and trees are called pith. The pith is the essence of the tree, which is especially precious..." Yanying

Ying spoke eloquently, and what she said made Leng Rui feel fresh.

"What is the function of this pith?" Leng Rui asked, his thirst for knowledge was particularly strong when it came to this kind of thing.

"I'm not very sad either, because some things have been lost." Yan Yingying looked disappointed.

"This is interesting." Leng Rui thought to himself. He felt as if he had grasped the tail of some mystery, but he couldn't explain it clearly.

"The thing in this bottle is the pith of the green gold tree." Yan Yingying's voice was a little ethereal, as if it was floating from the sky.

Leng Rui didn't pay attention, but after a breath, he froze and stammered: "What did you say? Is this the pith of lapis lazuli wood?"

Yan Yingying nodded gently and acquiesced.

Leng Rui suddenly realized that he had fallen into this woman's trap, and her true purpose had long been seen through.

After calming down his pounding heart, Leng Rui smiled bitterly.

In this world, no one is stupid. I think I am quite smart, but who knows that I have been seen through by others a long time ago.

"Shopkeeper Yan, tell me! You gave me such a precious thing. If you need me to do anything, just tell me." Leng Rui no longer needed to be secretive, and went straight to being a bachelor.

"Okay! Master Xiao Leng is so happy! Then let me tell you straight, I will give you this bottle of marrow. The essence of the entire green gold tree lies in this. But you must save one person!"

Yan Yingying also straightened her face and stated the conditions word for word.

"Save someone? Who?" Leng Rui was confused. He was not a doctor and didn't understand medical skills. Who could he save?

"My father!" After Yan Yingying finished speaking, her eyes were red and tears were rolling around her.

"Why do you need me to save you? I'm not a doctor." Leng Rui was even more confused.

"Seven years ago, my father was poisoned for some unknown reason. He gradually lost the ability to move his hands and feet, and could no longer speak. I visited famous doctors, but the medicines and stones were ineffective. Later, a thin-headed monk passing by claimed that he had a solution.

He told me that from now on, if anyone comes to our shop looking for green gold wood sawdust, I will give him the pith as a gift, saying that this person will be the one who healed my father." Yan Yingying seemed to be telling a story, and Leng Rui seemed to be telling a story.

Listening to storytelling.

That’s too ridiculous! In other words, this story is really ordinary. Just make it up and keep making it up.

Leng Rui disagreed.

"This bottle of pith belongs to you! I hope you can save my father's life." Yan Yingying said.

"Can I see your father?" Leng Rui didn't want to do anything he wasn't sure about. If it was a scam like "Immortal Jump", he wouldn't know how he died.

"Okay, you come with me!" Yan Yingying said softly, leading the way.

An "object" that looked like a human was lying on a sandalwood bed, motionless and without any breath of life.

"Father, Ying'er is here to see you!" Yan Yingying called softly.

The person on the bed had no reaction and seemed to be a lifeless person.

Tears flowed from Yan Yingying's eyes.

Leng Rui took two steps closer and could see clearly that he was a skinny man. The skin on his body was loose and drooping, and his blood vessels and tendons could be clearly seen.

After looking at it for a long time, Leng Rui gradually had a strange feeling. This was a living person, and a layer of looming black energy enveloped him.

He had an intuition. If the black energy was dispersed, the person would come back to life.

Why can I see the black energy on his body? Is it because of the...

Somewhere in the dark, Leng Rui had a realization in his mind that the mysterious factors in this person were dissipating, which was also the cause of his illness. Once all the mysterious factors were dissipated, this person's life would also end.

I am sure that I can cure him, but the prerequisite is that the meridians are restored.
