There was no opening ceremony, no hawking, and no staff.

The shop contained only a counter and a recliner.

Lin Zhu would lie on a recliner every day, watching the people coming and going at the shop entrance.

Over time, he became familiar with the neighbors.

"Shopkeeper Lin, you've been running this medicine shop for several months now, and all I see are people asking about prices, but not a single person making a purchase?"

At this moment, Lin Zhu was wearing a black mask, with only her eyes and ears showing, which these people were used to.

Lin Zhu said with a smile, "My pills are quite expensive, and they are a little short of money."

"How expensive can a single pill be? Are you refining some kind of elixir of immortality? I think you just don't know how to do business."

The speaker was a plump shopkeeper who owned a silk store.

His family's silk is of good quality; it's not only beautiful but also very durable.

Based on its quality, it's almost at the immortal level.

Lin Zhu replied with a smile, "It's alright. I haven't had any business for three years, but once I do, I can live off it for thirty years."

"You, so young and not on the right path. I think your shop will have to close down sooner or later."

The female owner of the teahouse on the east side was rather shrewish; she glared at Lin Zhu with a very unfriendly expression.

She thought Lin Zhu's eyes were very beautiful and always wanted to see what his face looked like under his mask, but Lin Zhu refused to let her see.

"Manager Zhao is right, so I usually open at 9:00 AM and close after 1:00 PM."

Zhao Zhangyu was taken aback for a moment, but quickly realized the meaning behind the words. He couldn't help but laugh, "You can't see your mouth, yet you're so glib."

"I'm terrible with words, how could I be witty?" Lin Zhu replied with a smile.

Zhao Zhangyu couldn't help but exchange a glance with Lin Zhu, but quickly looked away, her cheeks slightly flushed, and said, "Never mind, I can't argue with you. Come to the shop for morning tea sometime."

As soon as she finished speaking, she shyly ran into the teahouse.

"Manager Lin, you'd better tone down your flirtatious eyes a bit."

"What peach blossom eyes? I think they're fox eyes, specifically for seducing respectable women."

Across from Lin Zhu was a rouge shop. The owner of the rouge shop was a skinny bamboo pole, also surnamed Zhao, and named Zhao Youqian.

As his name suggests, he is very wealthy, and his family owns restaurants all over Daxing City.

He bought the rouge shop to get closer to Zhao Zhangyu. He had been pursuing Zhao Zhangyu for over a year, but had not been able to win her heart.

So he regarded Lin Zhu as a rival in love and was jealous and sour every day.

If looks could be scored, Wang Yuyan would get 95 points, and Zhao Zhangyu would get around 75 points, but both are still top-notch beauties.

No wonder Zhao Youqian was tempted.

But Lin Zhu was really not in the mood, and said, "Old Zhao, don't blame me if you can't do it yourself!"

"I can't do it? You're saying I can't do it? What makes you think I can't do it? What's wrong with me?" Zhao Youqian suddenly became anxious, as if something had been hit where it hurt.

Chapter 894 The Person with Double Pupils

"Who, who can't do it? I've been specializing in treating those who can't do it for forty-eight years. If it's not a common problem, three needles will do the trick. If it's a severe problem, one pill will be effective."

Further away, an old man ran out of the pharmacy.

But upon seeing that it was Zhao Youqian, he ran back, saying, "Third Master Zhao, I am truly powerless to help you."

"Old Zhang, say that again!" Zhao Youqian was furious and was about to rush to the pharmacy to settle accounts with Old Zhang.

Old Zhang said, "Third Master Zhao, have you thought this through? I also know a little bit of martial arts."

"You, you, Old Zhang, do you think you're something special just because you have some fighting skills?" Zhao Youqian said weakly.

Old Zhang said, "Third Master Zhao, you'd better leave quickly, or you'll ruin my business. With you around, my pharmacy hasn't been doing so well these past few days."

"Hahaha!" Old Wen, the owner of the silk shop, couldn't help but burst into laughter.

"Wen Wanli, what are you laughing at again? Be careful, or I might open a silk shop too," Zhao Youqian threatened directly.

Wen Wanli strained to hold it in, "Boss Zhao, as you know, my wife recently gave birth to a son. Thinking about it, I was so happy that I couldn't help myself. *Pfft*"

"You're still laughing? So what if you have a son!" Zhao Youqian turned his gun on Wen Wanli.

This relieved Old Zhang.

On the second floor of the teahouse, Zhao Zhangyu looked at Zhao Youqian with a helpless expression.

Although Zhao Youqian is rich, he's really not her type.

First of all, his appearance and figure were subpar; he was skinny and looked like he could be blown away by the wind.

As for his character, there isn't a big problem, he's just a bit gossipy and has a lot of resentment.

In summary, Zhao Youqian's money is not enough to offset these shortcomings.

Of course, there is an even more crucial point: she won't be able to have children after marrying into the family.

"It may not be a big deal for others, but it might be for some people," Lin Zhu said with a smile, helping Wen Wanli out of the awkward situation.

Zhao Youqian's eyes were bloodshot. "Lin Zhu, if you have the guts, say it again."

"I can cure your problem completely," Lin Zhu said calmly.

Zhao Youqian was stunned for a moment, then quickly stepped forward, his knees buckled, and he knelt down on the ground. "If you don't mind, I'm willing to become your godfather. From now on, my money is your money, and you can spend it as you please. Father Lin, our Zhao family has only had one son for three generations. We can't let the line end with me."

"Alright, alright, I'll give you a method. Go get the medicine yourself, take one dose in the morning and one dose at night, and then practice the Five Animal Frolics a few times."

As Lin Zhu spoke, she wrote down the prescription and then tossed it to Zhao Youqian.

Zhao Youqian instinctively took it and asked, "Uncle Lin, won't you take my pulse?"

"Your congenital blood and qi have surged through your kidney meridian. Once it's cleared, you can slowly nourish it." Lin Zhu waved his hand and then said, "Don't call me 'Father Lin,' it sounds irritating."

"Okay, godfather." Zhao Youqian looked at the prescription, somewhat skeptical.

As for the Five Animal Frolics, Hua Tuo did pass it down. Zhao Youqian has consulted many doctors over the years for his ailments, so he naturally learned it.

He looked at the prescription and saw that several of the ingredients were poisons, such as arsenic and peacock bile.

Before he could even question it, a hand quickly snatched the prescription away. "Let me see. I've been treating kidney deficiency for so many years, I don't believe there's anyone better than me."

Upon seeing the specific prescription, he was immediately astonished. "This prescription is amazing! Although arsenic and peacock gall are poisons, if used properly, they can indeed unblock the kidney meridians damaged by the blood evil energy, although it is quite dangerous."

He looked at Zhao Youqian's frail body and shook his head. "I don't know if this body can withstand it."

Lin Zhu said, "How can there be no risks when it comes to treating illnesses?"

Actually, the prescription is definitely not the problem; it just depends on whether Zhao Youqian dares to take the plunge.

Zhao Youqian looked at Old Zhang and asked, "Old Zhang, can this prescription really cure my ailment?"

Old Zhang nodded affirmatively, "It's the right treatment. With the Five Animal Frolics, it should help you have children, but the risks are quite high, and you'll have to abstain from sex... Uh, you don't need to worry about that."

Zhao Youqian listened to his words, unsure whether to be angry or happy.

He grabbed the medicine and said, "Old Zhang, can you prescribe me a few doses? I want to try them out and see how they work."

Old Zhang thought for a moment and said, "Don't blame me if you get sick from eating it."

"It's not my fault." For some reason, Zhao Youqian had a lot of confidence in Lin Zhu.

"Playing tricks!" Suddenly, a burly middle-aged man appeared and watched the commotion for a while.

"You didn't even take the pulse of that little brat, how could you tell what's wrong with him at a glance?"

Zhao Youqian was about to say, "Who are you calling a little punk?"

Immediately afterward, he felt the imposing aura emanating from the burly man and deflated.

This person is clearly someone you shouldn't mess with.

Lin Zhu also looked at the man. His powerful aura was comparable to that of Lu Bu back then, but his murderous aura was even stronger. He was clearly a veteran of the battlefield.

He replied, "What's so difficult about that? Take you, General, for example. Have you been feeling hot and restless all over lately, like you're about to burst into flames?"

The middle-aged man's body trembled, realizing that Lin Zhu was no ordinary person.

But he couldn't figure out what Lin Zhu was up to, and a guess immediately formed in his mind: "So you are actually an immortal. I was really blind."

Lin Zhu cupped his hands in greeting to Yu Juluo, "So it's General Yu. I am Lin Zhu."

As one of the Nine Elders of the Sui Dynasty, Yu Juluo was known to every resident of Daxing City.

It was only then that Lin Zhu's neighbors realized that what he had been refining was indeed an elixir of immortality.

Zhao Youqian was dumbfounded. He had been having a run-in with a deity lately, but thankfully the deity didn't hold it against him.

He immediately regarded this prescription as his lifeblood, something he couldn't afford to lose.

Clearly, he knew that if Lin Zhu wanted to deal with him, she wouldn't do it in such a roundabout way.

On the second floor of the teahouse, Zhao Zhangyu was also dumbfounded, then smiled helplessly.

Those are gods! I'm just daydreaming.

Yu Juluo walked into Lin Zhu's shop and said, "As an immortal, you shouldn't be on this street. After all, immortals and mortals are separated."

"It's alright, their memories aren't very good." Lin Zhu had already planted a seed of understanding in the minds of people within a hundred miles, and they would forget Lin Zhu's identity the next day.

Yu Juluo chuckled, "All you immortals know are some ghostly tricks."

"It seems the old gentleman harbors great hostility towards those who are immortal." Lin Zhu stared directly at Yu Juluo and discovered that he also had double pupils.

No wonder he's so amazing.

"Hmph! I'd like to ask you, why do you open a pill shop here?"

Yu Juluo expressed his incomprehension, saying that if Lin Zhu wanted to enjoy life, he didn't need to open a pill shop like this, especially in the mortal area.

"Of course, I'm selling pills." Lin Zhu knew that Yu Juluo could afford them, so he tossed out a fourth-grade Dragon Tiger Qi and Blood Pill. "Would the old general like to try it?"

Yu Julu instinctively reached out and took it; he had originally intended to avoid it.

But without realizing the danger, they accepted the call.
