C30

A day's time passed in the blink of an eye.

"Ugh …" "Cough, cough …"

Bamboo Shoot's hands and feet were tied up as it leaned against a large tree and retched.

Her pretty face was pale and her hair was messy. She seemed extremely weak, but her mouth kept cursing: "Damned little thief, you actually put me on the horse for a whole day, I'm going to fall apart …" "Ugh …"

Zhuangzi was about to go crazy!

This shameless little thief had used such a despicable method to capture her! Not to mention capturing her, he even wanted to leave her alone in the wilderness.

She lowered her body and pleaded, only then did Lin Cheng change his mind and bring her with him.

However, what she absolutely did not expect was that Lin City would actually tie her up and place her on the back of a horse, then ride on it like that.

At the start, she could only circulate her elemental energy to block the jolting horse's back. However, what made her mad was that this shameless bastard, Lin City, was actually running nonstop for an entire day.

In just a few hours, the elemental energy within her body was almost depleted. The rest of the time was spent in bumpy pain.

At the beginning, she was cursing at Lin City, but as the elemental energy within her body was depleted, she didn't even have the strength to curse. In the end, she was completely scattered!

At this moment, Bamboo Shoot was leaning against the tree and didn't even have the strength to lift her finger. The pain in her body was so intense that even the slightest movement could cause her to grimace uncontrollably, causing her to hate Lin City even more.

"Shameless little thief, an ungrateful bastard!"

"When you fall into my hands, I'll definitely hang you behind my horse and drag you along the official road. I'll let you shed a layer of skin at least if you don't die!"

Lin City stood not too far away from him. In front of him, there were pill furnaces, fire stones, and medicinal herbs. He turned a deaf ear to Zhu Ziyang's curses, and he only rubbed his chin as he stared at the medicinal herbs.

He wanted to refine a medicinal pill, but it was not for his use. Instead, it was for the bamboo to use.

His gaze swept across the medicinal ingredients in front of him, and a light suddenly flashed across his eyes. His brows slightly relaxed as he thought to himself, "I've got it!" Just do it! "

After that, he lit a fire with a flint and set the pill furnace on top of it to start concocting pills.

"This shameless little thief is actually an apothecary?"

Seeing Lin Cheng's actions, Zhu Ziyang couldn't help but be slightly startled, his pale face showing a little surprise. He even forgot to curse, "This kid is putting on an act, he can't be acting, right?"

Even though she said so, Zhu Zifu knew that the probability of this happening was very low.

These pill furnaces and things like that had clearly been prepared long ago in Lin City. At least, since they had been hurrying throughout the entire day, Lin City naturally did not have the time to prepare these things.

"Even if he is an apothecary, he is still a black-hearted and unscrupulous apothecary. What he forged are all poisons!" Remembering the pain she had gone through, Zhu Ziyang snorted through gritted teeth.

"Drip, drip."

Within the pill furnace, the medicinal herbs were already being refined and placed into the furnace one by one by Lin Cheng. After which, Lin Cheng placed his hands on the furnace and suddenly, the ten fingers on his hands began to move.

One after another, dazzling finger techniques were completed within his ten fingers. Even from a distance, Bamboo Gou was able to detect the elemental energy fluctuations between his hands.

"What a fast finger technique!"

Zhu Zifu was stunned, "It seems that he is much more skilled than the Wen family's alchemists."

Lin Cheng's ten fingers were just like ten spirit snakes, occasionally crossing and occasionally merging. They were like flowing clouds and flowing water, giving off a unique sense of beauty.

"Clang clang!"

When Lin Cheng's hand slammed on the pill furnace, the lid flew up a few fingers before dropping back down.

Then, Lin Cheng slowly let out a breath of foul air. He stood up and directly lifted the lid, and in that instant, a strange smell wafted out from the pill furnace.

A gentle breeze blew past, and Bamboo Bag, who was staring at Lin City with wide eyes, suddenly smelled a strange smell. She felt her stomach churning as she quickly turned around, leaned against a tree, and retched once again.

Ugh …

"Shameless little thief, what sort of medicinal pill are you concocting? This is clearly poison!" Bamboo Shoot recovered after a while and couldn't help but curse, "You want to become an alchemist with such a high alchemy standard?" You are more or less the same when it comes to forging poisons! "

Lin Cheng glanced at her and nodded his head. "How did you know that I forged poison?"

Bamboo Fork was stunned for a moment. "Is it really poison? You, you can't be thinking of committing suicide, right? "

"Humph!" "Even if you want to kill yourself, I won't!" Lin Cheng glared at her, and stored the pill in an empty porcelain bottle, then wrapped up all the tools before walking over to Bamboo Fork.

"What are you trying to do?!" Zhu Zi's expression changed when he saw Lin Cheng walking over. With wariness in his eyes, he asked.

"I'll feed you poison!" Lin Cheng said.

Bamboo Shoot suddenly tensed up as if her tail was stepped on. If it wasn't for the fact that her arms and legs were tied up, she would have almost jumped up. "Are you kidding me!?" You actually want to poison me? Shameless bastard! "Go to hell!"

Lin Cheng looked at her calmly, a porcelain bottle in his hand.

Zhuangzi was a little dazed. "You, you're not joking? You really want to poison me? "

Lin Cheng asked, "Do I need to joke around with you?"

"You really want to kill me?"

Seeing Lin City's expression, Zhu Zifu suddenly struggled and loudly cursed, "Bastard!" I'm your savior, and you want to poison me! I won't let you go even after I get to hell... Pah pah pah! I'm not going to hell, only an ungrateful kid like you would go to hell... Don't come near me! "

Lin Cheng snorted and ignored her struggles. He grabbed her chin and forcefully fed her a pill.

"Pah!"

Lin Cheng smacked her back with his palm, and Bamboo Hill suddenly stuck out her chest. Immediately, she felt the pill slide down her throat, causing her body to stiffen as she froze.

Ah!

The next moment, Bamboo Fork went crazy and shouted, "Bastard! I'll kill you! "If it's a man, then let me go and fight me head-on, ahh!

"Don't worry, I'll let you go right now!"

Lin Cheng smiled and pulled out his dagger, cutting off the leather whip that bound his four limbs.

As soon as she gained her freedom, Zhu Ziguo immediately pounced at Lin City with bared fangs and claws. She bared her fangs and said crazily: "Bastard!" I'm going to kill you! I want to perish together with you! "

"Pah!"

Lin Cheng patted Zhu Ziyang's shoulder. Zhu Ziyang, who was already very weak, suddenly felt his legs go soft, and he sat back down.

But Bamboo Gou didn't give up. She still wanted to struggle and fight with her life on the line against Lin Cheng. "Shameless little thief, give me back my dagger. I'm going to kill you —"

"Pah!"

Bamboo Shoot was smacked back at him once again. She grinded her teeth and crawled up to fight Lin Cheng to the death, then smacked back at him again.

After repeating this a few times, all of the strength that she had just recovered was completely used up.

She sat on the ground, leaning against a large tree as she gasped for air. Her eyes were staring viciously at Lin Cheng, as though she wanted to strangle him to death.

"Don't be so scared. You won't die immediately if you consume this pill!"

Lin Chen could not help but smile as he looked at Zhu Zifu's gnashing teeth. He thought to himself that this girl was truly a beauty. Regardless of whether it was her eyes or her lovable appearance, both of them possessed an indescribable sense of beauty.

If she grew up, this little girl would probably become a beauty who would bring calamity to her country!

It was a pity that he was too unruly!

Lin Cheng shook his head. If anyone were to marry her, they would be doomed for eight lifetimes!

"An ungrateful villain!" Bamboo tilted her head to the side and was immediately angered when she saw Lin City's face.

"Whatever you say!"

Lin Cheng gave a noncommittal smile and said: "I was just being a bit too cunning just in case. Moreover, if you want me to bring you along, I must first ensure my safety!"

"Bah!"

Zhu Ziquan spat in disdain, "You're still calling me crafty? You're the most cunning one! "

Lin Cheng stood up and said, "A war of words is meaningless! Don't blame me for not reminding you that the pills you swallow will not cause any harm to your body. However, if you try to forcefully circulate your energy, the poison will corrode your meridians and you will soon become a cripple! "

"You're too poisonous!" Zhu Zifu was so frightened that his face lost all color.

"It's not only these …"

Lin Cheng said, "After your meridians are destroyed, the poison will slowly destroy your body, causing your entire body to fester. It will be extremely itchy, but you won't be able to grab it. You'll lose a large chunk of skin and flesh if you do that …"

"Stop it!"

Bamboo Shoot's scalp went numb when he heard this. He screamed out in fear, "What are you trying to do? Give me the antidote!"

Lin Cheng laughed. "Don't worry. When we reach the middle region, I'll naturally give you the antidote. When that time comes, we'll each walk our own path. You won't have to see me again!"

"Are you that kind?" Zhu Zifu looked at him suspiciously.

Lin Cheng said, "The reason why I gave you the poison is to prevent you from sneak attacking me. However, you can give it a try. I would like to see what it looks like if your entire body festers!"

Bamboo angrily scolded: "Bastard!" "Shameless!"

Seeing that Lin Cheng had already turned around and left, Bamboo angrily said, "Give me the antidote! I am your savior, and I even helped you get a storage bag. You actually treat me like this, little thief! "

"As long as you don't circulate your energy, the poison will not act up!" Lin Cheng smiled, "As for the storage pouch, I really should thank you, so when we separate, I will thank you again!"

"Bah!"

Zhu Ziyang said disdainfully, "I don't care about your gratitude, just give me the antidote."

Lin Cheng ignored her and turned around to sit cross-legged under another large tree. He then took out the storage bag.

He had already obtained this storage pouch for two months. However, it was completely useless against Lin City. He simply did not know how to open it.

"From the looks of it, you don't even know how to use a storage bag?"

Zhu Zifu suddenly asked.

Lin Cheng cast a sidelong glance at her. "Don't tell me you know how to?"

Bamboo Shoot laughed and raised his head, "You are just an unorthodox martial artist. You must be a bumpkin who has never seen a storage bag before!"

Lin Cheng's eyes lit up, "You really know how to use storage pouches?
