Chapter 144

Name:I Have Medicine Author:衣落成火
Wasn't this great young master too…enthusiastic?

Gu Zuo didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

Right now, he seemed to have a bit of an understand of the other party. Although Gu Zuo could feel a kind of arrogance that made him want to slap that guy's face when they met a few times before, Xu Lingxiu was ultimately arrogant in his confidence. Not counting the first time he mentioned that he could give Gu Zuo some pointers, the next two times should've been about how Gu Zuo helped that young master's friend, so he wanted to pay Gu Zuo back a little bit?

Gu Zuo had no words.

After shaking his head, Gu Zuo waited till he had left completely. Then he sped up his footsteps and walked out of the Black Prison's vicinity.

When he approached the cave entrance, most of the outside light was penetrating in. Gu Zuo used his hand to block in front of his eyes, and slowly walked out. Taking a moment to get used to it, he finally left these layers of chains.

The martial artists on duty weren't obstructing him. After he stepped across the final length of chain, he was like a criminal being pardoned.

But he was still a little nervous.

Gu Zuo lifted his head and saw that welcoming big brother, who stood tall with his hands clasped behind his back.

He stared: Big brother, his body seemed to be tense all over?

The next moment, Gu Zuo felt the hair all over his body suddenly stand on end.

Countless killing intents from all directions were launched. It was like they could stab him into a sieve at any moment!

Right! It was the crossbow arrows on the mountain walls!

Thinking back, there clearly wasn't this kind of sensation before entering the cave…

At this time, Gongyi Tianheng beckoned with his hand: "Ah Zuo, come here."

Gu Zuo naturally scampered over: "Big brother!"

Tianheng said: "Don't be scared. The longer the period of great danger, the scarier it becomes. They probably don't like people lingering here for too long."

Gu Zuo furrowed his brows: "They're afraid that someone who stays here too long will make an attempt?"

Tianheng smiled and nodded.

Gu Zuo thought about it, his brows relaxing.

In fact, it wasn't strange for others to act like this. After all, the Black Prison was an important location. Who knew if the disciples here had an accord with the Sect, or if they had ill-intentions?

He then felt relieved.

Gongyi Tianheng patted Gu Zuo's head. Following which, a hand embraced his waist and they leaped up. His posture was like a gigantic roc that flapped both wings as they rocketed into the sky. The tip of his foot had only pushed lightly, but they'd already overcome this section of steep cliffs and landed onto an upper part of the ravine.

The ravine was very deep, but to Xiantian Realm martial artists, one could smoothly move up and down by spending some strength. Perhaps it would be somewhat difficult for other Xiantian stage one martial artists to carry such a burden, but for Gongyi Tianheng whose internal true qi was more than six times that of ordinary people, it was still effortless.

Before a wick of incense could finish burning, Tianheng and Gu Zuo had finally landed on top of the cliffs.

Gu Zuo let out a sigh.

After going through several training regimens, his "fear of heights" had already been cured. When he had some free time, he would look into this.

Since pharmacists had true qi realms, there was no reason that Xiantian martial artists could rise into the air and pharmacists couldn't.

Maybe, this also had something to do with his psychic power…

The two returned to the valley.

While on the road, Gu Zuo had told Tianheng all about the effects of the mutated Scarlet Blood Rice. They had also discussed how the remaining Scarlet Blood Rice would be used.

To be honest, this thing looked very impressive. Unfortunately, it was too much of a coincidence. Theoretically, not only might this have been related to the person who originally ruined the soil's composition, but it also might've been related to the Spirit Jade Vitality Decoction and the Growth Hastening Decoction. Most of all, the insides of all three types of Scarlet Blood Rice were liquid. Wanting to plant them was basically impossible.

If one wanted to obtain mutated versions from planting the ordinary Scarlet Blood Rice, not only did they have to research the complete process of how the soil was ruined, the quant.i.ties and input sequence of the things that ruined the soil also needed to be researched… How was this possible? As for how many kinds of components in the soil, it wasn't necessarily possible to make the person who ruined it come forward to explain it clearly themselves.

Let alone having Gu Zuo try.

The cost-performance ratio was too low, so it basically wasn't worth it. In any case, they currently had a large amount. The correct handling method was to harvest them all up and use them.

Thus, Gu Zuo glanced at the second rotation of Scarlet Blood Rice in the field being planted by the diligent slaves. The rice was being irrigated by Growth Hastening Decoction. Gu Zuo immediately squeezed into his own medicine refining room.

It was decided! Seventy percent would be used to make Bewildering Beast Decoctions to earn money. The remaining thirty percent would be used to refine Trick Pills for self-protection!

Otherwise, it wouldn't make up for the contribution points he lost…

Gu Zuo didn't leave the medicine refining room until it was evening. It could even be said that he had an unkempt appearance.

At first, Gongyi Tianheng was sitting cross-legged under a tree while condensing Xiantian bone pearls. At this moment, he saw Gu Zuo with this pathetic look and couldn't help laughing: "Ah Zuo, what happened?"

Gu Zuo walked over miserably, and suddenly collapsed to the ground: "…Tired."

Because he'd been busy doing this and that, his thoughts were too excited, which split his attention. When he refined medicinal pills or decoctions, it directly led to him being swamped with work, and dark bags formed under his eyes. Coupled with the fire's smoke and the poisonous gas hanging in the air, he cut a sorry figure.

Tianheng laughed: "Quickly go take a bath."

Gu Zuo lifted his head and looked to the sky: "Big brother's letting me take a break…"

Tianheng rarely got to see him acting so shamelessly, and his heart felt very amused. He stopped what he was doing and walked over to pick up one of Gu Zuo's hands: "Could it be that Ah Zuo wants big brother's help?"

Gu Zuo couldn't move.

He took a furtive look over. Was big brother playing a joke or was he being serious?!

From his facial expression, he couldn't tell at all…

At first, Tianheng was only cracking a joke, but when he saw Gu Zuo with this kind of appearance, he instead lifted Gu Zuo up and leisurely carried him into the building.

As he walked, he voiced a command: "Dragon Two, fetch some bath water."

Gu Zuo: ! ! !

But at this moment, he already lacked the ability to resist and was taken into the room by this big brother of his. Then, he was put on a cleared-out table.

He looked on as Gongyi Tianheng immediately reached out his hands, pulling open his outer robes. Just as his clothes were about to be peeled off, he finally discovered that Tianheng really might've not been fooling around!

How could this be?! Granted that they were both men, but he was also…

He was also very shy, okay?

Under this panic, Gu Zuo promptly said: "Big brother, no need, no need! I'll wash myself! I really don't need you to help me!"

When he shouted, he was fl.u.s.tered as he struggled. He hurriedly drew back and swiftly escaped Tianheng's hands.

Gongyi Tianheng was a martial artist. He'd even broken through to Xiantian — How could his strength be compared to a weak chicken like Gu Zuo?

So, no matter how much Gu Zuo used his infantile strength, he couldn't really evade Gongyi Tianheng's "attack". As for those clothes, the outermost layer had already been removed.

In the bathing room next door, the sounds of splashing water echoed. That was the bathing water Dragon Two had prepared. At the same time, there was also the sound of a door opening, which was Dragon Two exiting the bathing room.

Tianheng clearly heard the movements over there. He saw that Gu Zuo's exterior "dusty sh.e.l.l" had been peeled back, and pinched the neckline of his inner robes. Just like this, he lifted Gu Zuo up and walked to the bathing room. Soon after, he released his hand and Gu Zuo was put down on the floor.

Gu Zuo took three steps back. He covered his neck, with vigilance across his whole face.

Gongyi Tianheng smiled: "What? Ah Zuo also won't take off his inner robes. Does he still need to make big brother come and lend a hand?"

Gu Zuo: "Eh?" As it turned out, his big brother wasn't going to continue! He promptly said: "No, no, no! Big brother, I'll do it myself! This is something I can take off!"

After he finished speaking, he acted without delay. He quickly and effortlessly tore off his clothes. But after taking them off, he discovered something amiss — Wait a second, his big brother was still in the room! He was naked like this… What was the difference between this and his big brother helping him undress?!

Following this, Tianheng discovered that Gu Zuo's complexion had changed.

First, it turned red. After that, it turned deathly pale. Then, it turned red once again. He seemed so embarra.s.sed that he didn't know what to do.

Afterwards, Gu Zuo held his breath. Without knowing how, it was as if something pushed up under his feet, sending him directly into that huge bath tub.

Boom!

Big waves splashed up, and he was soaked through.

Gu Zuo: "…"

Just now, he felt very strange… When his embarra.s.sment reached an extreme point, it was like his mind had abruptly blanked out. Following that, the s.p.a.ce between his eyebrows warmed up and something suddenly appeared from there, delivering him into the bath tub.

If it wasn't for his lack of proficiency, he wouldn't have acted like a drowned rat.

But even if he was practiced, that spectacle just now just too…too much!

Gu Zuo stood lifelessly in the bath tub.

He felt that his whole body wasn't so good right now.

If he didn't guess wrongly, what happened just now should've been the effects of his psychic power…

But it would've been much better if the matter of drawing support from his psychic power to fly through the air didn't occur under these kinds of circ.u.mstances!

One situation after another had Gongyi Tianheng furrowing his eyebrows off to the side.

He only had some seldom, mischievous thoughts. He just wanted to watch the amusing reactions of his little pharmacist. Unexpectedly, the outcome was that he saw a pleasant surprise…

After that, Tianheng unhurriedly walked over and grasped a wooden ladle. He scoop up some water and poured it down the distracted teenager's shoulders: "Ah Zuo, what're you still doing? If you continue to stay here, I'm afraid the water will get cold."

Gu Zuo snapped out of it and shivered.
