Qiong: "Chiming? When interrogating criminals, do you still care about their race? Shouldn't everyone be treated equally before the law? Otherwise, I can consider the laws of your Immortal Ship to be a joke. As a member of the Earth Balance Division, do you dare to say such a thing?"
Xing also came to her senses. Right, why bother proving the truth of her information? Shouldn't this kind of thing be handled through direct interrogation?
“I heard from General Jingyuan that there is a place called the Ten Kings’ Office, where the interrogation techniques are probably more professional. I don’t think your Earth Balance Office is very professional.”
Da Hao slammed his fist on the table in anger. He hated it most when people said that the Earth Balance Division was inferior to the Ten Kings Division.
"Enough! Take this Green Hibiscus away and interrogate her severely."
At this moment, the unconscious Green Hibiscus had no idea what situation he would face...
Qingzu thought for a moment and then gave out the contact information of several people. "Write down this prescription and ask these physicians from the Pill Refining Bureau to consult with them about the details and key points of the prescription. This way, the Divine Strategy Bureau can prepare the antidote more effectively..."
Qiong adopted a lazy demeanor, "Huh? Do I have to make another trip? It's going to be difficult for me if you don't charge extra."
Xingye casually found a chair and sat down. "That's right. As the two top disciples under General Fierce Tiger, our appearance fees aren't cheap."
Blue Arrowhead:........
........
Da Hao was silent for a moment before saying, "Alright, since you are disciples of General Fierce Tiger, even if our Earth Balance Division has little surplus grain, we still have to prepare your rewards. If it weren't for the engine malfunction that caused the equipment damage... well, complaining is useless. I'll go get your rewards now. Do you two plan to stay in Luofu permanently?"
Star/Dome: "Not planning on."
Da Hao's tightly furrowed brows relaxed. "Oh, then let's use credits as payment. I was originally worried that the Earth Balance Division's patrols wouldn't have enough cash flow."
Dahao pulled out a diplomatic savings card and two 50% off cards from under his desk.
"Your reward is these two 50% off cards. You can get a 50% discount on anything you buy at Chang Le Tian by simply showing them to the merchant. The price difference will be covered by the Earth Balance Division, so there's no need to worry about that. We know General Fierce Tiger's quirks, so this savings card has 824 million credits. This is all the reward for the two operations. I'm paying you both in advance as a token of my sincerity."
Xing and Qiong were delighted; the beating was totally worth it. They now wished the secrets of the Medicine King were everywhere, simply because those who possessed these secrets were valuable.
The two men were already thinking about how to catch the leader, who was definitely worth much more than these small fry.
Qiong: "Since you are so kind, Steward Dahao, it is hard to refuse."
Xing: "Then we'll accept it. Don't worry, the secrets of the Medicine King will definitely not escape the grasp of us, brother and sister."
Qiong: "Indeed, I'd like to ask, if we were to capture that ringleader, how much would he be worth?"
Da Hao was speechless, because the Earth Balance Division had almost no credit points left. In order for the Earth Balance Division to surpass the Ten Kings Division, he had just taken out so many credit points in one go.
But now, he couldn't very well say he was broke. He could only look at Qingzu beside him; this strategist from the Divine Strategy Bureau must surely have quite a bit of money.
Chapter 97 Dan Shu: Does the Secret of the Medicine King Deserve to Die? Hua Wu: Should the Ming Clan Have Their Marrow Extracted?
"Uh... you two. I think the Shence Prefecture should have a relevant reward mechanism."
After receiving Qingzu's reply, Xing and Qiong set off immediately.
.......
Changletian —
Hua Wu looked at the pill formula in his hand, becoming more and more annoyed.
"I want to tear this piece of junk apart, but I need evidence to go through the process... It feels as troublesome as solving elementary school equations. I can see the answer at a glance, but I still have to write out the steps."
Xing and Qiong spotted Hua Wu from a distance and ran over. "What pill formula? We've also obtained a pill formula."
Hua Wu looked at the two with interest. "Oh, it's you two. How did it go? How was it doing playing solo?"
Qiong repeated the metaphor, "It feels so good, so incredibly good. It's like taking a hot bath on New Year's morning and then changing into new underwear—it feels so wonderful!"
Xing felt her good mood vanish instantly. "Be civilized, don't use such strange metaphors."
Hua Wu replied naturally, "Oh, it's nothing serious, I don't care. What do you plan to do? Are you going to go to the Pill Refining Department to find out what's going on?"
Qiong casually replied, "Otherwise, do you think you know anything about it...?"
Then Qiong realized that the person in front of her seemed to actually know. "Wait, why are we asking the physicians of the Pill Refining Department when there's a ready-made Abundance Token right here?"
Xing handed Hua Wu her handwritten prescription and hesitated, "So... does this prescription have an antidote?"
Hua Wu knew at a glance that it was the same as the one in his hand. He said righteously, "Yes, take 240 catties of black iron and 8 ounces of oak wood. Throw the black iron into the boiler to melt it, then forge it using the ancient method for half an hour. Add the oak wood to make it into a sword. Place the sword on the patient's chin and forcefully slash it until the head falls off. At that time, the disease will surely be cured."
star:?
Qiong: ?
Xing was somewhat taken aback. "Is this really the antidote?"
Qiong felt that this didn't sound like a prescription at all. "It sounds a bit like a suicide plan to me."
Hua Wu shook his head and said, "How could it be suicide? You just want to prescribe medicine, right? Of course, the medicine will cure the disease. Of course, there are normal treatment methods, but they are a little cruel. We will break the patient down into cells and delete the parts about the dragon coiling and leaping."
Qiong was speechless. As expected, the minds of the strong were different. He was easily silenced. If he took this recipe back, even if it didn't complete the mission, it would at least scare Qingzu half to death.
Xing was speechless: "This... let's go ask Dan Shi."
Watching the two figures from Xingqiong disappear into the distance, Hua Wu shook his head helplessly. "This kind of thing is impossible to concoct with a normal antidote. Even if it were possible, the human body wouldn't support such a violent reaction. The people from the Immortal Ship might be able to, but it's highly unlikely to work. This thing is a demonic yin catalyst, unless you remove the demonic yin."
"Thinking back, it seems to be called Dan Shu... Let's take out the memory slices and take a look... Hmm, Ruo Mu Ting."
Hua Wu tossed aside the cards he hadn't used in a long time and strolled leisurely toward Ruomu Pavilion.
..........
Xing and Qiong wandered around Chang Le Tian, searching for Dan Shi.
Before long, they found a kind-hearted Danshi.
"Hello, is there anything I can help you with?"
“We are from the Shence Mansion. The strategist, Chang Qingzu, sent us to inquire whether there is an antidote for the secret formula of the Medicine King. This is the formula.”
Xingjiang handed the pill formula to the alchemist.
"So it's official business from the Shence Prefecture. I'll certainly do my best. Let me see the prescription..."
When the alchemist's gaze shifted to the prescription, he saw familiar characters forming something completely foreign to him. His expression suddenly changed. "This... if this came from elsewhere, I would consider it nonsense. But this is official business of the Shence Mansion, so it won't be that simple."
He hesitated and said, "I don't understand this prescription. I think other alchemists probably won't be able to do it either. I suggest you go and ask our head alchemist, Lord Dan Shu. Of course, you can ask other alchemists if you want, but don't have too high hopes."
"Oh, by the way, Lady Dan Shu is known for her unconventional thinking. Some of the prescriptions she concocts, she herself doesn't explain, and even we..."
Listening to this long-winded explanation, Qiong only knew one thing: this person couldn't solve the problem. "Um, just tell us where she is."
After hearing this, Dan Shi realized his rambling. "Well, is the prescription from Shence Mansion really that urgent? Then I'll get straight to the point. Lady Dan Shu likes to rest at Ruomu Pavilion. You should be able to find her there."
......
Ruomu Pavilion —
"Yes, I've been waiting for you for a long time, General Tiger."
Dan Shu stood by the fence, his back to Hua Wu.
"Heh, what color patrol boat do you like?"
"Color? I don't care, I can't see it anyway."
"What are you pretending for? You're about to die, don't you know that?"
After a long silence, Dan Shu said, "As the rumors say, they eat people but not their heads. Before my head hits the ground, I want to ask you something."
"Is the secret teachings of the Medicine King necessarily wrong? Does the secret teachings of the Medicine King necessarily deserve to die?"
Hua Wu was completely baffled by the question. "If you're not wrong, then am I wrong? Are you kidding me? Are you suggesting you're right? From extracting the egg sac of a living Vidyadhara to now extracting the marrow of a living Vidyadhara, should I praise you for still giving the Vidyadhara clan the right to choose?"
Dan Shu said quietly, "This is a necessary sacrifice, and they agreed to it."
"Good, very good. So you deceived her because the Dragon Lord is young?"
"Dragon Master..."
"Om——"
"I'm sorry, it's already the greatest mercy I've shown you by letting you say so much. If I'm not mistaken, your prescription should also contain bone powder from the Demon Yin Body... That Demon Yin Powder, that's something you concocted, isn't it?"
The pill-holder on the ground continued, "Yes, I concocted it. I sensed an abundant aura on you. As a general, you possess the aura of the Medicine King. You have betrayed us, haven't you?"
Hua Wu sat at the table to the side, quietly looking at the head. "Oh? Betrayal? Who said a general can't study medicine? Besides, I study proper medicine, which is completely different from your heretical pill formulas. Fine."
"Yes, you started from a higher point than us. The Medicine King's selflessness also contributed to..."
"Stop. My thoughts are not the same as the pharmacist's. The pharmacist believes that all suffering, illness, and death ultimately lead to death. He believes that death is the beginning of all suffering. Death is the source of all suffering."
Hua Wu slowly sheathed his longsword and continued, "But He didn't know that death is not the beginning of suffering; life is. Without life, there is no suffering; without suffering, there is no life. As long as you live, there will always be sources of pain that will find you, but if nothing exists, what is the point of this universe? Can it even be called a universe?"
Chapter 98 Hua Wu: I am a kind person.
"You're the winner, you have the power to make any rules. What can I do if I agree? What can I do if I disagree? Anyway, I won't live much longer. Sigh, I'm actually quite curious to see what the Ferocious Tiger of Luofu looks like. I've seen the world before, but only for a short time."
Upon hearing the last sentence, the once-dead heart of abundance stirred again. "May all your desires be fulfilled. I will give you a moment of light; after you have seen it, you can depart in peace. Indeed, I am still a very kind person."
Two seeds pierced through, directly altering the physiological structure of its eyeballs. Faced with a higher level of abundance, the primal blessing of the Jianmu tree was utterly insurmountable. Even if those crippled eyes wanted to regrow their teeth, it would be impossible.
Dan Shu saw Hua Wu before him. “General Fierce Tiger…you are completely different from what I imagined. Yes, I am the leader, the person in charge of the entire Luo Fu…I can also tell you that there are many people like me in the Dan Ding Division. However, after I leave, they will probably do what they did three years ago: completely disappear into obscurity and hide away.”
Upon seeing the colorful world again, she shed a single tear and then remained unresponsive.
"Dan Shu, among the leaders I've slain, you were the one with the weakest vitality. Under normal circumstances, you would have died long ago..."
"Squeak... creak..."
The sound of the vines growing became clearer. Dan Shu's soul had already departed, and now the demonic energy within his body began to grow uncontrollably.
Hua Wu looked disgusted as the blood-stained vines danced wildly, trying to grab onto something around them, making it look like an alien invasion.
"Uh... I take back what I just said. You're even more incredible than them. You must have taken a lot of drugs. You look like an alien war god."
Hua Wu looked around. Fortunately, Luo Fu hadn't been very peaceful lately, and hardly anyone was out having fun. After all, everyone knew that Yan Qing had been instantly defeated by a Grand Lord.
Who knows what you might encounter when you go out to play? If you happen to run into a king who's out for a stroll, you'll be left with nothing.
"There's hardly anyone around, so I can use my teeth freely. I didn't expect your vitality to be so tenacious. Anyway, you don't look like a person at all. Let's try cutting you in half vertically first."
A slash was unleashed instantly, splitting the twisted creature that had broken free of control in two.
"Still moving? What did it eat? Oh well, I'll roast it with fire and shock it with electricity, and scald that wriggling head with boiling water. Is this thing some kind of super-resistant killer?"
"Hiss—roar—"
