C39 Zhu Yunxin

Zhou Tong was still smiling. He casually picked a few dozen pieces before putting the Hundred Year Old Radix Szechwan in his hands together. "Help me put them away, we will settle this."

Sir, there is a total of 1120 gold coins. I will erase some of them for you. After counting the items, the shop assistant quickly announced the price.

Slightly nodding his head, Zhou Tong casually threw the Mysterious Coin in his hand onto the table and quickly placed it back into the Sumeru Pearl. He secretly heaved a sigh of relief.

After a moment of silence, Zhou Tong suddenly looked at the shop assistant and casually asked: "Where did you dig out the Radix Szechwan here?"

"About that, the Yali Town is about 80 miles north of here, there is a valley called the Lian Ya Mountain, we have a special herb collecting team, but every time we go out, we always hire mercenaries as guards." The shop assistant, who had just done a business deal, was in a good mood.

Zhou Tong nodded slightly. After packing up his things and just as he was about to leave, he found that there was a commotion at the entrance of the medicine store.

"Wow, isn't that Zhu Yunxin!?"

"So beautiful, tsk tsk, this body is simply ?"

"Idiot, lower your voice. has treated more than half of the Yali Town's mercenaries and others have heard it. Be careful not to break your legs!"

Standing not far from Zhou Tong, two man dressed as pedestrians were talking casually. When one of them said something frivolous, the other one quickly went silent and cursed softly.

"Just a casual remark." "Hehe." That man scratched his head as if he felt the hostile gazes from the surroundings. Feeling awkward, he pulled his companion away from the medicine store.

"What is this? "Local famous idol?" Zhou Tong stood in the distance and raised his eyebrows slightly. Through the gaps in the crowd, he could vaguely see a girl wearing a skirt.

There were three to five strong men surrounding the girl, continuously driving away the crowd. It was only when the crowd gradually dispersed, did Zhou Tong clearly see the girl surrounded by the crowd.

The girl wore a beige skirt. The end of her dark blue short hair was slightly bent, making her smooth and round face look quite like a leading girl. The girl's appearance was quite sharp, but her face was filled with a warm and indifferent smile. Surrounded by a group of brawny men, she seemed especially fresh and refined. This unusual aura actually made the girl even more charming, making people want to take a few more glances.

His gaze stopped at the lady's body, looked at the small waist that was tied to a blue ribbon, and shock swept past Zhou Tong's eyes.

Amongst all the girls that Zhou Tong knew, the previous life's Chu Moli should have been the most perfect one, but in this world, the family's Wan'er was the most obedient and sensible one, and the Xiao Hanqing that they met before was lively and lively, with a few traces of unruly unruthlessness on her beautiful face. On the other hand, the girl in front of them named Zhu Yunxin was probably the weakest with the tiniest waist, comparable to Zhou Wan?er when she was not even seven years old yet.

"Miss Zhu is our best pharmacist, in the entire Yali Town, those who like her can probably queue up to a distance of more than five kilometers. Every time the herb collecting team goes out with Miss Zhu, those mercenaries would set their prices to the lowest, and fight for a spot."

"Pharmacist?" Zhou Tong was startled, and asked in astonishment: "What the hell is that?"

This term was a little strange to Zhou Tong. In fact, a pill refiner could also be considered a alchemist, but compared to a real alchemist, their status was much lower. After all, all they could produce was a powder that could be used to grind medicinal herbs, or they could endure until they became painful medicinal herbs. Most of these pharmacists were self-taught. They were well-versed in the books of medicine, yet they could not concoct pills or medicine. In the end, this was the reason why no one was guiding them.

Zhou Tong curled his lips, towards this somewhat sloppy occupation, he more or less disapproved.

"If I could have a good teacher, Miss Zhu might even become a powerful alchemist." The shop assistant said helplessly.

Shrugging his shoulders, Zhou Tong was too lazy to speak anymore. In the end, he took a glance at Zhu Yunxin who was sitting behind the counter and prescribing medicine for the sick and injured.

It had to be said that this girl's kind smile when she was prescribing medicine was indeed very warm. It was no wonder that these usually ferocious men were as docile as huskies in front of her.

No, there didn't seem to be any ferocious beasts like the Husky in this world, and the Husky didn't seem to be docile.

After a while, Zhou Tong walked out of the medicine shop and wandered around the streets for a while. As the sky darkened, he found an inn to find a room and went in.

Entering the room, Zhou Tong was immediately choked with the smell of dust, and started to cough continuously. It had to be said, the accommodations in this small place was truly terrible.

Apart from a single bed, there was a wooden table and two chairs. A dim oil lamp was lit on the table, illuminating a small area. He could vaguely see some dust on the table through the light. There was a wooden cabinet in the corner, and when he opened it, the dust inside was even slower. He could even see the marks left by the last person who lived here.

Zhou Tong looked around with disgust and shook his head helplessly. He thought to himself that this little shop that cost 10 gold coins a night was not as good as the 500 gold coins a night accommodation in Star Luo City. Sighing lightly, he shook his head. After a day of travelling, Zhou Tong was rather tired. As a result, he laid down on the cold bed and fell into a deep sleep.

Night quietly passed, and just as dawn arrived on the second day, Zhou Tong opened his eyes on time. After a night of deep sleep, Zhou Tong's entire body was filled with vitality.

Sitting up from the bed, Zhou Tong took a position of five hearts facing the sky and slowly closed his eyes again. The best time to train was early in the morning, and the best way to do so was to go against the flow. If he did not advance, he would retreat.

As Zhou Tong's breathing gradually grew longer, a light vibration like a water wave began to appear within the tranquil space. A light ripple started to emerge as strands of spirit energy started to surge towards Zhou Tong.

With his continuous cultivation and the rich experience of his previous life, Zhou Tong was like a sponge right now. As he breathed and breathed, countless pores on his body would open and close, greedily absorbing that strand of spirit energy into his body.

After the abundant spirit energy entered his body, it was absorbed by Zhou Tong's limbs and bones after being tempered by the meridians specific to a few of the cultivation techniques. His cultivation continued for nearly an hour. Only when the sunlight shone through the window into the window did Zhou Tong finally stop cultivating and took a deep breath.

He gradually opened his eyes. A cold and sharp glint flashed past his eyes. It was as if a sharp sword had been unsheathed. In the blink of an eye, it had hidden itself in the depths of his eyes.

"qi generating state Eight Stage. Sigh, this mysterious black gas is paired with the [illusion qigong]. With the effect of 'Double Return', my cultivation speed has increased by three times." Zhou Tong stretched lazily, and upon hearing the crackling sounds coming from his body, his face was covered in smiles.

"Let's go take a look at this Lian Ya Mountain first. If we can find two hundred year old Radix Szechwan s to refine a 'Deep Earth Spirit Pill', maybe we can reach the ninth stage of the qi generating state before the Immortal Path Congress."

In the Wasteland, whether it was the mountains, rivers, plains, forests, or depressions, wild beasts ran amok and were filled with dangers. In the Wasteland, whether it was the mountains, plains, forests, or depressions, wild beasts ran amok and were filled with dangers.

Of course, regardless how skilled he was, Zhou Tong was definitely satisfied with how courageous he was.

Whether it was his previous life or this life, Zhou Tong would always follow all the troubles that he could solve himself, and would definitely not rely on anyone else's style. A young eagle that was hiding in protection, would never truly be able to soar into the sky, and only by relying on itself, would it be able to defeat all the obstacles, and ultimately laugh arrogantly at the heavens!

Walking out of the inn, Zhou Tong headed to another exit of the town, which led to the Lian Ya Mountain.

At the entrance of the small town, many mercenaries crowded around, trying their best to attract and recruit people who wanted to enter the mountain.

There was only one of these mercenary groups in the Yali Town, and there were around two hundred of them, with the majority of their strength being around qi generating state. Furthermore, it was said that the leader of this mercenary group had ethereal state, which was also known as the 'Immortal', and in a place like the Yali Town, it was considered a strong force.

The second type was a temporary team that would be disbanded after a mission was completed. Their trust and tacit understanding were naturally far from being comparable to a regular mercenary group.

As for the third method, it would be those solo mercenaries. These people at least had some means of survival that allowed them to dare to enter the Wasteland by themselves.

At this moment, the mercenaries that were loudly shouting were the second type.
