C21 Asparagus King

The next day at dawn.

When Lee Beizhi woke up in a daze, Zhang Cuixia had already prepared breakfast for him.

Seeing Lee Beizhi open the door and come out, Zhang Cuixia said snappily, "What? You don't even need to practice?"

Lee Beizhi smelled the fragrance of rice and had already jogged over. He picked up a peeled egg and was just about to stuff it into his mouth when he hurriedly said,

"Practice. Go after eating."

As he spoke, he began to gorge himself.

"Slow down. No one is competing with you."

Zhang Cuixia saw his hungry ghost reincarnate and found it funny in her heart.

"En ~ It was sister who made it so delicious..." Lee Beizhi did not even have the time to raise his head as he muttered.

"I was afraid that you would keep thinking about changing your taste."

Zhang Cuixia originally felt happy in her heart but suddenly remembered Mrs Lianhua's matter and her tone immediately became somewhat strange.

Lee Beizhi did not dare to reply and continued to eat his breakfast. He hurriedly ran to cultivate.

After absorbing all of the floating white fog, Lee Beizhi's eyes lit up and the bottleneck in his body faintly loosened.

This made Lee Beizhi very excited.

He had been stuck at his current realm for many years. At one time, he thought that the "Spirit Reproduction" that his grandfather talked about did not exist at all.

But today, he could already clearly sense that realm.

Lee Beizhi returned to his room to make some preparations. Today, he still had to leave the mountain and go to the countryside to buy the materials for the "Herculean Pill."

Zhang Cuixia knew that he was busy with Huang Xiaohua's illness. She gently said a few words and then went back to her room.

...

Actually, there was no formal medicine market in Loongwang Township.

Most of the medicine merchants were with some hawkers who sold mountain goods and wild tea. They were peddling at the foot of the mountain.

Today was a gathering. When Lee Beizhi arrived, there was already a sea of people in front of him.

Seeing so many people, Lee Beizhi secretly cried out, Oh no! He covered his chest and began to look for the medicinal merchants he had worked with before.

After searching for nothing, Lee Beizhi was already covered in sweat.

Suddenly, a rich and mellow medicinal fragrance came over. Lee Beizhi raised his eyebrows and looked over there.

"High-grade medicinal herbs, high-grade medicinal herbs."

Seeing Lee Beizhi looking at his stall, the middle-aged medicinal merchant hurriedly shouted a few times.

Who knew that Lee Beizhi would directly walk past him and arrive in front of a slovenly old man behind him.

The old man was sitting on a stool and taking a nap. In front of him was a piece of plastic cloth, and on top of it were a few stalks of dried grass.

The medicine merchant at the side looked at Lee Beizhi with some astonishment, and then threw a look of contempt towards him as he muttered:

"If you don't have money, then don't buy herbs. You don't have to worry about eating dead people even if you buy some dried trees and branches."

Lee Beizhi was holding a dried root the size of a radish and looking at it attentively, totally ignoring the pharmacist beside him.

The more Lee Beizhi looked, the more shocked he became.

This was the first time he had seen such a mature astragalus. Moreover, it was perfectly dried. It had retained its medicinal effects to the greatest extent. He immediately said excitedly.

"Old man, how much is this astragalus for?"

The old man did not even open his eyes as he replied faintly.

"One hundred thousand."

Lee Beizhi nodded and said.

"En, not expensive."

Although he could not afford it, this price was indeed not expensive.

The age of this astragalus would not be lower than 40 years, and it would be perfectly processed. If he met someone who needed it, he would definitely sell it for tens of millions.

Seeing that Lee Beizhi knew what it was, the old man also became interested. He opened his eyes and looked at Lee Beizhi and said with a smile.

"Do you want it?"

Lee Beizhi awkwardly touched his nose and reluctantly put down the astragalus king in his hand. He said:

"I want it, but I don't have money."

The old man saw that he agreed readily and continued with a smile.

"Kid, it's already extraordinary for you to know this astragalus. It's just that this old man is sick. Wait for money to save my life. Why don't you take a look at something else and I'll give it to you at a cheaper price."

When Lee Beizhi heard this, he raised his head and looked at the old man. He frowned and said with a smile.

"This old man is very healthy. Where did this disease come from?"

The old man was startled when he heard this. He looked at Lee Beizhi with a playful gaze and said faintly,

"You and I only met once. How do you know if I am sick or not?"

Lee Beizhi chuckled and asked.

"Old man, you have a long life this year?"

The old man replied.

"Sixty-three."

Lee Beizhi nodded and said with a smile.

"The old man is old, but his face is red and full of energy."

The old man laughed and interrupted Lee Beizhi's words.

"Don't tell me you want to show this old man your true colors? I don't believe this."

Lee Beizhi shook his head with a smile and continued.

"Listen to me, old man."

"Old man, you are old, but you still have Doudou on your face. From this, we can conclude that the meridians and blood vessels in your head are unblocked, and there is no possibility of inflammation."

"Besides, I can see that there is a hot medicine between your neck, which proves that your muscles, bones, and veins are unimpeded. There is no worry of rheumatism, no stroke, and no heart disease."

"Finally, I can still smell the faint smell of your armpits. From this, it can be seen that you have no heart disease. Your internal organs are unblocked, and there is no hidden danger of organ cancer."

"How can such a person who has clear meridians in his entire body suffer from an incurable disease?"

The moment Lee Beizhi said that, the old man's face turned serious. He looked at Lee Beizhi with admiration. After a long while, he said,

"To tell you the truth, the one who fell ill was my wife."

Lee Beizhi nodded his head in understanding. He didn't know what to say.

The old man looked at Lee Beizhi with fiery eyes and continued.

"Little friend, do you know any medical skills?"

When he was asked about his old profession, Lee Beizhi perked up. He nodded slightly reservedly and said:

"I know a little bit."

The old man knew that he was being modest. He hurriedly stood up and casually rolled up the precious medicinal ingredients in front of him. He pulled Lee Beizhi's hand. He said earnestly:

"Can you come home with me? My wife is seriously ill and cannot be cured. I would like to invite little friend to take a look. No matter what the result is, I will not let little friend go to waste."

Lee Beizhi smiled bitterly in his heart when he heard that. He was here to buy medicine. Why did he suddenly treat someone?

However, a doctor was benevolent. Lee Beizhi naturally had no reason to refuse. He helped the old man carry the stool and followed him home.

Along the way, the two introduced each other. The old man's name was Chen Binghou. He was also a TCM doctor. A few years ago, because of his wife's illness, he gave up his job and started looking for doctors everywhere. It was just that after a few years, he did not get any better.

Elder Chen led him into a spacious courtyard. Before Lee Beizhi could stand up, a few people welcomed him in the hall.

Lee Beizhi saw that the few of them were dressed well, and only then did he know that the old man was just a slovenly old man. In fact, his family was quite well-off.

"Dad, what are you doing?"

Chen Binghou's son was dressed in a black suit. When he saw that his father was in a hurry and that he was holding a dirty plastic bag in his hand, he frowned unhappily.

"Take it." Chen Binghou threw the herbs into his son's arms and pulled Lee Beizhi into the house. He said:

"Don't come in. I will find someone to treat your mother."

Chen Binghou's children looked at Lee Beizhi. Seeing that he was so young, they all frowned. They wanted to stop him, but they were afraid that the old man would blame them.

So they gave each other a look and stood in front of the door to listen carefully.

If Lee Beizhi had any ill intentions, they would immediately stop him.
