After the strong man surnamed Wang kowtowed and apologized, he still knelt on the ground. He did not get up and seemed to have something to say.
The corner of Zi Chen's mouth twitched, looking slightly depressed, thinking to himself, you should stop saying nonsense, otherwise I wouldn't mind throwing you out.
"Miracle doctor, although you may not have the power to restrain a chicken, you have a good heart! If this were to be placed in another pharmacy and I didn't pay any medical fees, they would have kicked me out long ago. Moreover, my previous injuries,
It’s hard to survive! Miracle doctor, you have good conduct, high medical skills, dignified manners, and a benevolent heart. Please accept my worship again!"
The other party's words didn't convey what he meant, and the connection between them was inconsistent, but Zi Chen still found it useful. Of course, it would have been better if there hadn't been the sentence about being unable to restrain a chicken.
Finally, after kowtowing for ten or eight times, the strong man started talking about business.
"Miracle doctor, I'm here to pay back the consultation fee."
Zi Chen nodded and said, "Okay then, just give me five yuan stones!"
Yuanshi is the common currency of the entire Tianwu Continent. Even in this small town that is not developed and does not have many monks, it is still the main currency.
"What, five yuan?" The strong man's eyes widened, and the four people behind him also looked incredulous.
Zi Chen explained: "This is the cost price. If the price is lowered, I will lose it!"
Zi Chen was telling the truth. The cost of the previous medicinal powders was five Yuan Stones! However, there was a main ingredient in it, which was a medicinal herb of life that was thousands of years old. This medicinal plant, Zi Chen, was not included in the cost.
If included, the cost of the previous half bottle of medicinal powder is already too high to be estimated. At the very least, a strong man cannot afford it.
However, the injuries of the strong man like before were almost fatal, and no one in the entire town except Zi Chen could cure him.
"No, miracle doctor, you misunderstood, I mean, only five Yuan stones? I thought you needed at least hundreds of Yuan stones?" The strong man explained quickly, with an extremely embarrassed expression on his face.
After hearing this, Zi Chen understood why the other party knelt down as soon as he came. It turned out that he was afraid that the medical fee was too high and he could not afford it. Although the strong man was the leader of the hunting team and ran a grocery store, he had little savings.
Zi Chen smiled and said, "Just give me five yuan, but you have to do me a favor."
"What are you busy with?" the strong man asked.
"Didn't you say that I don't have the power to tie a chicken? I have to go up the mountain to collect herbs now. Please lead me the way and protect my safety at the same time." After Zi Chen finished speaking, several people discovered that Zi Chen had a scar on his back.
A medicine basket.
"Miracle doctor, this is not possible. Recently, a ferocious beast appeared on Wa Mountain. It is said to be very powerful and has killed many monks. You must not go up the mountain!" the strong man said immediately.
"If we don't go up the mountain, we won't have any medicinal materials."
The strong man gritted his teeth, hesitated for a moment and then said: "The miracle doctor must never go up the mountain. Let's do this. We will go and collect the medicinal materials you want!"
"Yes, let's go pick it! If the miracle doctor dies inside, it will be a loss for the entire Washan Town!"
The other four people are also in line with Tao.
Zi Chen shook his head and said: "What I need are special medicinal materials. You don't know anything about it. Even if I tell you, you don't understand. You'd better take me there!"
Seeing that a few people were still hesitating, Zi Chen said: "No big deal, I don't want the five yuan stone consultation fee, I'll just treat it as payment to you."
When the strong man heard this, he immediately stared and said loudly: "Miracle doctor, who do you think we brothers are? We won't let you go because we are afraid that you will be in danger! Forget it, since you insist on going, then we will sacrifice our lives.
I will accompany you and ensure your safety! Here, here is the medical fee!"
"If you had agreed earlier, it would have been over!" Zi Chen put away the Yuan Stone, then carried the bamboo basket on his back, hugged Su Mengyao and said goodbye.
"Xiao Lin, stay here. If anything happens, tell me your father's name." Wang Mengshan glanced at Su Mengyao and said.
Wang Xiaolin nodded heavily and said, "Dad, don't worry, I will definitely protect Sister Yao!"
The group of people left the drug store, but before leaving the town, Zi Chen left to buy a lot of things. When he came back, the bamboo basket was already full.
Seeing that most of the food in the bamboo baskets was food, the five people looked at Zi Chen very strangely. Wang Mengshan even asked: "I said miracle doctor, are you going to collect medicine or are you going on vacation?
Traveling? Why bring so much food?"
"You have to stay in the mountains for several days, so you can't go hungry!" Zi Chen smiled and said, "By the way, don't call me the miracle doctor. My name is Zi Chen, just call me by my name. Always call me the miracle doctor.
, it sounds very awkward.”
Wang Mengshan did not pretend to be pretentious and said directly: "Brother Zichen, you are only going to the mountain for a few days, but the things you brought can probably last for half a year. And there is food on the mountain. Don't you feel tired like this?"
Zi Chen smiled and said, "Just think of it as exercise."
After leaving the town, a group of six people prepared to go to Washan. Washan is the name of the nearest mountain to here. It is not just a mountain, but a range of mountains.
After traveling for more than ten miles, Zi Chen saw more than ten people waiting there, holding long knives in their hands and long bows behind their backs. They were obviously hunters preparing to go up the mountain.
"They are members of our hunting team."
When they came closer, Wang Mengshan introduced everyone to each other. When they heard that Zi Chen was the miracle doctor, everyone's eyes were filled with surprise. Their original intention was to go up the mountain to hunt animals, but at this moment they changed their attention and focused on protecting Zi Chen's safety.
Zi Chen smiled and did not refuse.
Although these hunters are ordinary people and have no real energy, they are very powerful.
"Have you heard that there is a new mayor in our town? It is said that he is in the True Yuan realm!"
"What, True Element Realm? So strong!"
"Isn't it true that in a small town, the mayor is the real strong man!"
While going up the mountain, a group of hunters were chatting with nothing.
There are monks in the town, and these hunters often cooperate with the monks, so they know some levels of cultivation.
At this moment, he was talking about the mayor of the small town, and the faces of the strong men were full of admiration.
After advancing for dozens of miles, everyone started to rest after reaching the foot of the mountain. Washan is a large mountain range, but the small town of Washan is not prosperous because there is a city a hundred miles away.
Outside the city is the real Washan Mountains, where the powerful monks are located.
During the break, when he saw Zi Chen taking out the drinks and food from the bamboo basket and sharing them with everyone, Wang Mengshan suddenly understood and suddenly felt grateful on his face.
On the way, these people will chat about some things happening in the town.
When they reached the halfway point of the mountain, the group of them was stopped by a monk.
"What are you doing?" Wang Mengshan stared at the two monks in front of him.
The two of them were only at the third level of Zhenqi, and could barely be regarded as monks. However, there were more than ten people on Wang Mengshan's side, but they were not afraid of them.
"Vicious beasts are running rampant in the mountains, and we are here to kill them," a young man said proudly.
"Just kill him. Why are you stopping us? We are here to collect medicine?" Wang Mengshan said.
"Killing ferocious beasts also eliminates harm for the people. Therefore, from now on, everyone who enters the mountain must pay five yuan stones." The young man added.
"What?" Wang Mengshan's eyes widened, and the other strong men also stared at the two monks, with expressions like they were looking at idiots.
"You are so poor that you actually asked us for the Essence Stone. We are people from Washan, and we have made a living by hunting for generations. I have never encountered the rule that you have to pay five Essence Stones before entering the mountain!"
The young man snorted coldly: "That was in the past. Now there are ferocious beasts in Washan. The mayor sent my family to kill them. At the same time, he also levied fees like you hunters. You don't have to worry. You don't have to go up the mountain every time.
You only need to pay once a year."
Seeing that Wang Mengshan and others still wanted to protest, the young man said coldly: "This is not our intention, but the intention of my adults. Let me tell you, my adults are one step away from the innate realm."
The expressions of Wang Mengshan and others changed. They could not care about the two people in front of them, but they had to care about the being who was about to reach the innate world.
They looked at Zi Chen, waiting for Zi Chen to make up his mind. Zi Chen finally understood why no one had gone to his place to sell medicinal herbs in the past few days. It turned out that there was such a thing.
"We pay Yuan Stone, can you register?" Zi Chen asked.
"Of course you need to register. I have paper here, just write your names." Seeing Zi Chen's unusual dress, the young man asked: "You are not an Orion, what do you do?"
Zi Chen smiled and said: "I opened a medicine shop in the town. Because I was short of a few medicinal materials, I went up to the mountain to pick them myself."
"Are you the owner of that medicine shop?" The young man looked at Zi Chen with a hint of surprise in his eyes.
"Of course, he is a miracle doctor! If you are accidentally killed by a ferocious beast, go to the medicine shop to find a miracle doctor to ensure that you can survive!" Wang Mengshan said proudly.
"Very good, very good! I've heard about the name of the herbal medicine shop a long time ago, and it's really extraordinary when I see it today. Let's do this. Each of the Orions will pay five yuan stones when they go up the mountain. As for you, just pay fifty yuan!"
"What, fifty yuan, are you crazy?" Wang Mengshan glared, while Zi Chen's expression was relatively calm.
Glancing coldly at Wang Mengshan, the young man looked at Zi Chen and said with a joking smile: "Forget it if you don't want to pay. When this matter is over, we will go to the drug store to visit you."
Zi Chen said: "It's okay to pay Yuan Stone, but if you die, who can guarantee that someone will ask me for Yuan Stone next time?"
"Death?" The young man joked: "Don't worry, even if you die, we won't! In other words, we will live longer than you and live more comfortably than you."
Zi Chen sneered: "That's not necessarily the case!"
As soon as Zi Chen finished speaking, a shrill scream came from the distance, followed by loud shouts.
"Run quickly, the beast is coming!"
"The ferocious beast has killed my lord, run away... ah!"
"Help!"
The screams were accompanied by shrill screams and the roars of ferocious beasts.
The expressions on the two young men's faces changed greatly, and they were full of fear. They did not care about these people, and they were about to run away.
A strong wind suddenly blew, and a huge thing jumped out and rushed towards a young man.
