Chapter 66 Medicine

There may not be much else in Jubei City, but there are quite a few medical clinics.

On the one hand, due to the bitter cold and harsh environment in the north, people living here often suffer from illnesses. On the other hand, because the north is too bitter and cold, with poor mountains and bad waters, the people here are tough and everyone is martial.

Since everyone is martial, fighting is inevitable. In addition, during the practice, various medicinal recipes and baths are needed to strengthen muscles and bones and replenish blood. Naturally, the business of the clinic and drug store also improved.

"So...Boss Huang."

In a clinic called "Jushantang", Li Zhiyuan was kneading a few pills in his hand while looking at the middle-aged man in front of him with a trembling face.

"Do you have any grudge against the Diamond Sect?"

"……No."

The man called Boss Huang quickly bent down.

"How dare I? How dare I? Two years ago, I had a shipment of goods robbed, and it was Venerable Li who rescued them... I've always remembered this great kindness in my heart. How could I possibly harbor any resentment towards the Vajra Sect..."

“You actually still remember it.”

Li Zhiyuan sneered, and then threw the pills in his hands, which had been split in half, onto the table!
"So this is how you repay me? By feeding me this evil foreign medicine?"

"No, this, I, this..."

When Boss Huang saw some dark purple lines on the inside of the pill after it was cut open, he immediately broke out in a sweat.

"Your Excellency Li, this is truly not my doing. I've been running Jushantang for nearly forty years. How could I possibly ruin my reputation for such a small profit..."

"Because I know it wasn't you who did it, you're still alive and talking to me."

Li Zhiyuan raised his hand and pressed Boss Huang's shoulder.

"Think carefully about why this happened."

"Who do you think wants to harm you?"

"I……"

Boss Huang was stunned for a moment, then he started thinking quickly.

"I still buy the medicinal materials through the same channels as before, and the guys who prepare the medicine haven't changed either. If I must say something has changed... Baiyun Warehouse has been in disrepair recently, so I've switched my storage location to the newly built Wanfeng Warehouse outside the city..."

"Okay, let me see."

Li Zhiyuan let go of Boss Huang's shoulders and stood up immediately.

"Junior Brother Wuyi, let's go."

It was at this time that Boss Huang discovered that there was actually a human figure behind Li Zhiyuan's huge figure.

The figure was not tall, even thin, and judging from his face, he didn't even look very old.

But the other person was wearing the same outfit as Li Zhiyuan, with wide robes and big sleeves.

When he saw the clothes, Boss Huang subconsciously leaned over and lowered his head, then gritted his teeth, took out a red envelope and handed it over.

"This……"

Du Wuyi took the red envelope and weighed it, and couldn't help but be surprised by its weight.

There's probably a whole piece of gold cake wrapped inside.

Du Wuyi was a little hesitant for a moment after receiving such a generous gift for no reason. After all, this was a huge sum of money. Even for Boss Huang in front of him, it was probably a considerable expense.

But just when Du Wuyi was about to refuse, Li Zhiyuan held his hand.

"Take it."

While saying this to Du Wuyi, Li Zhiyuan turned to look at Boss Huang.

"Thank you very much for this welcome gift, Mr. Huang."

Immediately afterwards, Li Zhiyuan took Du Wuyi out and headed straight out of the city.

"If I give it to you, just take it. If you really push it back, you'll scare him to death."

On the way, Li Zhiyuan explained to Du Wuyi casually.

"But don't think that this money is free. He gave you the red envelope because he hopes you can take care of his affairs... So the rest of the matter is up to you."

"I come?"

Du Wuyi was dumbfounded. He had been brought here all the way and had listened to a lot of things, but when it came to actually doing things... how could he do anything?

"Can't I do it?"

Li Zhiyuan patted his chest.

"There's definitely something wrong at Wanfeng Warehouse. We need to find a few survivors to question... But with my size, I'm afraid everyone inside will be scared away before I even reach the door, let alone get there."

Looking at Li Zhiyuan's eye-catching tall figure like an iron tower, Du Wuyi had to admit that what Li Zhiyuan said was indeed reasonable and well-founded.

"Besides, this isn't a big deal. Just go over there and ask the person in charge to come out. With your skills, even if there are experts stationed inside, nothing will go wrong."

"Then... I'll try."

Feeling the weight of the golden cake in his arms, Du Wuyi also felt that he should do something.

Wanfeng Warehouse was built on the west side of Jubei City, which was not too far away. However, his senior brother Li Zhiyuan did not accompany him on this journey.

Without the conspicuous big guy beside him, Du Wuyi's wide robe with big sleeves didn't seem so eye-catching at all. Looking at his thin body in the ill-fitting robe, he looked more like a little boy who had secretly worn adult clothes.

So when Du Wuyi came to Wanfeng Warehouse, the guards guarding the warehouse couldn't help but look down on him.

"Where did this bastard come from! Get out of here!"

Several guards with ferocious faces saw Du Wuyi approaching and raised their steel knives at him.

"Dare to come here and steal? I'll chop your hands off!"

"I'm not here to steal anything, I'm just here to ask."

Looking at the ferocious guards, Du Wuyi frowned slightly.

"Do the medicinal materials used in Jushantang come from your place?"

"…herbal medicine?"

The guards looked at each other.

Then, he suddenly narrowed his eyes.

"This matter...it's hard for us to say. After all, we are just in charge of the warehouse and don't know much."

As they spoke, several guards moved towards Du Wuyi.

"How about you go in first, and we can look at the account book together and check it together?"

"It's just a check. Do you need to copy my backdoor?"

Hearing the footsteps behind him, Du Wuyi narrowed his eyes.

"What are you going to do?"

"This bastard! He has sharp ears!"

Hearing Du Wuyi say this, the burly man in the lead raised his steel knife.

"Chop this bastard off! Don't let him get away!"

"You should stop running."

Seeing that more and more guards were surrounding him, Du Wuyi did not retreat but advanced!

"Zheng——"

The raised palm swept through the air, causing a sound of metal clashing.

The broken blade, along with half of the arm, rolled to the ground.

"Senior brother said he wanted to capture him alive."

Du Wuyi turned his head and looked at the frightened crowd.

"So, you must not die."
