C23 Fortuitous Herb

After handing over all the money he got from the accident to Wang Junlee, Lin Mu returned to the dormitory.

After understanding more about this world, Lin Mu started to formally consider how to recover his strength. After all, he couldn't just slowly cultivate.

Otherwise, at this rate, how long would it take for him to recover his original strength?

Looking at the environment of the dormitory, Lin Mu felt that it was already a bit inconvenient to live in the school. There were too many students coming in and going out.

He turned on the computer and searched the Internet for information on rental homes. After finding a few decent housing sources, he changed into a new set of clothes and left the house.

Hua Chengming Garden was a villa not far from the Donghai University. Although it wasn't very expensive and couldn't be compared with the Ding Hu villa complex, a price of several million sets wasn't something an ordinary person could afford.

Walking into the small district, Lin Mu looked around casually and found that the greenery in the district was pretty nice. There were green lawns and trees everywhere, flowerbeds and ponds could be seen everywhere. At least, it looked very comfortable.

"This place is pretty good."

Lin Mu was quite satisfied with the environment of Hua Chengming Garden. As expected of a high-end residential district, the money was not wasted just because of this environment.

Soon, following the signs on both sides of the road, Lin Mu found the eleven villas where he registered the rental information online.

He pressed the doorbell lightly and in less than a minute, the sound of running footsteps could be heard from inside as the door opened.

A little boy who looked like a junior high student walked out. His delicate face still had a hint of tenderness, but he pretended to be an old Taoist and wore gold-rimmed glasses.

After glancing at the boy, Lin Mu looked at the number 11 sign in front of the mansion again. He seemed a bit confused: "Is this the rental information?"

"Not bad, you're here to rent a house?" The boy sized Lin Mu up in an aged manner.

Lin Mu nodded.

"Come in and take a look. If you're satisfied, then we can discuss the price." The boy took a pair of slippers from his shoe rack and threw them in front of Lin Mu. Then, he turned around and walked back into the house. "That's right, my name is Meng Xuan. Meng Zi's Meng, Xuanyuan Xuan. What's your name?"

Lin Mu put on his slippers and followed him into the house. While looking around, he smiled and said, "My name is Lin Mu, I'm from the forest, and I'm from the pasture."

The interior decorations of the villa were quite exquisite. They were Chinese style, with flowers, birds, fish and insects' calligraphy and paintings all over the walls. The living room was also filled with all sorts of antique mahogany products.

This couldn't be better for Lin Mu. Although the European decorations looked quite luxurious, he still liked things that were old-fashioned.

There was no helping it, since he was Cultivator, the only style that fit his tastes on Earth was the style of the East.

Meng Xuan brought Lin Mu to one of the downstairs rooms. He opened the door and said, "If you want to rent, you can give all the people on the first floor to you. There are already people upstairs.

Hearing this price, a hint of surprise flashed across Lin Mu's eyes. Although he had no concept of money, but after experiencing it for a while, he still understood that this price was a bit difficult for normal people.

"If it's just the first level, four thousand is a bit expensive."

"It doesn't matter. There are a lot of cheap houses nearby, and the price is only a few hundred. You can go over there and have a look." Meng Xuan pushed the mirror frame, showing that he didn't think much of it.

Money was not a problem. While Lin Mu was looking around the room and thinking about it, he heard the sound of slippers from upstairs. Then, a seemingly lazy voice floated down.

"Another person has come to rent a house?" I say, Xuan Zi, you don't lack that money, how can you be as smart as your parents? It wouldn't be a big deal if I don't rent out the first floor, right? "

Just as he finished speaking, a beauty wearing black-framed glasses appeared at the corner of the second floor. Lin Mu turned around and was immediately surprised. It was actually the History department's counselor, Soong Yuru.

However, at this time, Soong Yuru wasn't wearing her royal sister's outfit. Instead, she was wearing a nightgown.

"Hello, Teacher Song." Lin Mu greeted him politely.

Meng Xuan looked strangely at the two of them and asked, "You two know each other?"

"Of course I know him. Lin Mu is a student of Donghai University, and is coincidentally in my class."

Soong Yuru smiled and walked down the stairs.

Lin Mu, who was considering whether he should stay here or not, immediately gave up the moment he saw Soong Yuru.

The reason he didn't live in school was because there were a lot of people who knew him. In order to prevent some information from being leaked, he chose to move out.

"So this is where Teacher Song lives." Lin Mu nodded with a smile and then looked at Meng Xuan, "Sorry, the rent here is a little expensive. Furthermore, it will take quite a bit of effort to pay one year at a time. Sorry for disturbing you."

Soong Yuru's eyes flashed with a strange expression as she watched Lin Mu leave. He understood Lin Mu's family background. Even though it wasn't a top family, it didn't care about the ten thousand yuan.

Could it be that Lin Mu, after losing his memories, didn't receive any help from his family?

Soong Yuru frowned and thought for a while, but she couldn't think of anything. She shrugged helplessly and went upstairs.

After leaving Hua Chengming's villa, Lin Mu arrived at a nearby residential district. The residential district was all high-end elevator suites. After looking at a few independent rental apartments, Lin Mu finally rented Room 803 of Building 24.

Four rooms, two rooms, one kitchen and two guards. Each room had its own balcony. The house was quite big, but the decorations were European style, so the price was naturally quite expensive, as high as six thousand one month.

Thinking that there weren't any better houses nearby, it was relatively quiet here and it was quite convenient to live alone, so Lin Mu didn't hesitate anymore and paid the rent for two years in one go.

Looking at the complete set of tools in the kitchen, Lin Mu suddenly had the urge to cook. In the past, when he was cultivating, he had never had the desire to find a fixed dao companion.

Although he hadn't personally cooked since coming here, with the experience he had accumulated over the tens of thousands of years of cooking, mastering these simple tools was naturally not a problem.

After casually buying some materials from a nearby supermarket, Lin Mu cooked a meal for himself. As he ate, he surfed the internet with his laptop and browsed through the information of the Medicinal Herbs Market and the auction website.

Normally, this sort of extremely precious medicinal herb would be auctioned off in the auction, and only then would one be able to sell it at a good price. Moreover, on some auction websites, there would also be some truly good items.

Suddenly, a picture appeared on the computer screen, causing Lin Mu to stop picking up dishes.

It was a clear picture of a plant root. It was a slender, tender yellow body with three long strands of whiskers trailing behind it. It looked just like a ginseng.

Lin Mu carefully examined the picture. With a flick of his finger, he enlarged the picture several times. Immediately, a clear enlarged picture appeared.

As he looked, Lin Mu suddenly laughed, "I didn't expect to see 300-year-old Ganoderma, it's simply tailor-made for me!"

Lin Mu's cultivation was not the same as before, after all. If there really was a 1000-years-old Elixir placed in front of him, he would not be able to do anything about it.

With his current condition, if he ate a medicinal herb of that age, he would definitely die from a bodily explosion.

"So it's in Nangu City."

Looking at the location of the herbs, Lin Mu slightly frowned. It seemed that if he wanted to buy this herb, he would have to make a trip himself.

Looking at the auction time, it was tomorrow morning at 10 am. If he wanted to hurry over, he could only fly to Nangu City on tonight's plane.

He checked the flights to South Ancient in the East China Sea online. Since both cities were very busy and well-developed, there were no available seats. If he wanted to go, he could only wait for the next day's flights.

After thinking about it carefully, Lin Mu's eyes suddenly lit up. He picked up the phone and dialed the Baoloong Group base.

In less than ten minutes, there was a call back. He also sent a plane ticket message to his phone.

Looking at the plane ticket information on his phone, Lin Mu nodded and smiled, "Sure enough, having an organization behind my back is a pretty good thing. Looks like cultivating alone for my entire life was the wrong decision."

Counting the time of the flight, it was about time. After cleaning up his family a bit, Lin Mu took a taxi back to the airport.

After completing the boarding procedures, Lin Mu got a first-class ticket. Although it was his first time on a plane, he had seen it on TV many times. It did not take him much effort to get on a plane flying directly to Nangu City.

In the first class, Lin Mu found his seat. However, the first class seemed very empty. There were only five people sitting in a place that could seat dozens of people.

Even including him, there were only six of them.

Luo Bingyun felt a bit weird as she looked at Lin Mu, who was curiously looking around. However, at this moment, she was wearing an oversized pair of sunglasses, which covered up her expression quite well.

The first class cabin of this plane was completely reserved and naturally wouldn't be sold to outsiders. However, her bodyguard suddenly came over and told her that they received an important call and needed to arrange a seat temporarily.

The economy class and business class cabin were already full of customers. If he wanted to add one more seat, he could only add it to the first class.

However, Luo Bingyun carefully looked at Lin Mu. Her eyes were filled with suspicion. An ordinary T-shirt with jeans and a pair of ordinary sneakers. No matter how she looked at it, it didn't seem like anything important.

How could such an ordinary person possess such great power?

Luo Bingyun couldn't help but be curious.
