CH 97

He Ling Su was not a novice who had no understanding of martial arts. She knew very well that the third realm of martial arts, the main process was to temper the muscles and bones.

In other words, this was a kind of supplement that was specially developed for Level 3 Martial Artists to temper their bones.

At present, there were very few medicines and supplements on the market that targeted tempering bones. Even if there were, it would be Level 4 or 5 supplements.

Not to mention the difference in effect with this black powder medicine. The difference in price was already big enough.

Any Level 4 or 5 supplements would cost millions, even tens of millions.

Ordinary people could not afford it at all.

The cost of this new type of bone-tempering medicine in Lu Sheng’s hands was much, much cheaper. Lu Sheng had made it for over a week and did not know how much he made.

How many fake materials were mixed in the cost of the raw materials to confuse the public? The total cost was only about one million.

The price-performance ratio was simply that of heaven and earth. However, until now, Lu Sheng wasn’t willing to reveal any information about this new type of bone-tempering medicine.

It was fine if he did not say, but the key was that he deliberately left a little bit behind every time. He deliberately lured He Ling Su to find it herself, causing her to feel like a cat was scratching her heart.

He Ling Su was so angry.

“He definitely did it on purpose!” He Ling Su gritted her teeth and said.

Lu Sheng clearly wanted to tell her that he had a lot of precious prescriptions in his hands. As long as she was obedient, there would be opportunities for cooperation in the future.

It was not that He Ling Su did not think of secretly learning, but …

“Miss He.” Ma Fei walked in.

“Any gains?”

“No.”

Ma Fei shook his head helplessly. “I’ve been watching the surveillance footage the whole time, and it was turned off the whole time. Even if I get someone to fix it, it won’t work. As soon as Lu Sheng left, everything returned to normal.”

“Sigh …” He Ling Su sighed and nodded. She waved her hand and signalled for him to get out.

“I knew this would happen.”

Lu Sheng was a spiritual master, so he could easily nullify all of He Ling Su’s tricks, making He Ling Su completely give up on the idea of secretly learning his secrets.

“Forget it, I’ll just follow him obediently. No matter what, there’s hope for the He family to rise again …”

He Ling Su shook her head and threw the vial into the bin.

…

“A total of 93 Marrow Nourishing Pills should be sufficient for me to use for a while …”

This was the result of Lu Sheng’s one week of hard work. In total, he had spent more than one million yuan. On average, the cost of each Marrow Nourishing Pill was only about ten thousand yuan.

“Next, I should prepare to go to Qiuming City …” Lu Sheng thought to himself.

During this period of time, he had been looking at the resource distribution map every day. Combined with the current map of Dongning Province, he finally found a suitable location.

It was a small silver reserve located in Qiuming City, a few hundred kilometres away from Baihe City. It was hidden deep in the mountains.

Because it was located in a remote area, Lu Sheng guessed that it had not been discovered yet. There was a possibility he could monopolize it.

When he got home, Lu Sheng booked the nearest high-speed train ticket from Baihe City to Qiuming City online. Then, he quickly packed his luggage and sent a message to each of his family members. He then embarked on the journey to Qiuming City alone.

…

Qiuming City, on a mountain road.

On the tour bus of a package named “Qiuming City Immortal Forest Village Three Days and Two Nights Tour”, a young and beautiful female tour guide was enthusiastically introducing the itinerary and scenic spots to the tour group.

“Immortal Forest Village is located in the depths of Ox-Head Mountain. The place is beautiful, and it’s far away from human habitation. It’s one of the few Grade 5A scenic spots in Dongning Province.

There, you can feel the warm and simple folk customs of the Immortal Forest Stockade, taste the unique traditional food of the Immortal Forest Stockade, appreciate the beautiful scenery of the Ox-Head Mountain, and even have the opportunity to buy the mysterious and exquisite traditional handicrafts of the Immortal Forest Village … ”

The female tour guide’s saliva was flying around everywhere, but the tourists below were not interested at all.

Only a few aunties wearing red travel hats listened attentively. From time to time, they would even ask a few questions.

“Will they force us to buy things again?”

“Where will we stay at night? Are there a lot of mosquitoes in the mountains?”

“Is there a signal in the mountains? What if we meet a lion?

I’m afraid of wild animals the most.”

The female tour guide patiently answered each of them.

“Aunty, we are a conscientious travel agency. We will not force you to spend.”

“At night, we will all stay at the homestay in the village. The conditions are very good. There is air conditioning and a TV available.”

“There may be no signal in some places, but as long as we don’t go in too deep, we can guarantee that the phone will carry a signal. Also, there are no lions in the mountains. Lions are in the grassland.”

“This is so boring. What’s wrong with me accompanying you to this godforsaken place to relax?! There are still three days and two nights left. How am I supposed to endure it?!”

In the back seat of the bus, a girl with silver earrings, sunglasses, and a tight purple short-sleeved shirt howled, venting her dissatisfaction.

Sitting next to her was a beautiful girl with long straight black hair. She had a pretty face and a quiet temperament. She looked away from the scenery outside the window and said softly, “I didn’t ask you to come. You insisted on coming.”

The girl in sunglasses replied unhappily, “Please, it’s because you’re out of love. I’m afraid you’ll take things too hard and go deep into the mountains to commit suicide. I’m worried about you, okay? Big sister, you’re treating my kindness as malice!”

“Okay, okay, okay. I know you’re the kindest …”

The long-haired girl patted the hand of the girl in sunglasses and smiled. “Don’t worry, I’m not that weak. It’s just that I haven’t been out for a long time. I’m taking this opportunity to relax. This tour group is a little bad, but the scenery of the Ox-head Mountains is not bad. You won’t regret it.”

“You won’t regret it.”

The girl in sunglasses muttered, but her eyes unconsciously glanced to the side.

There came the sound of a little girl’s cheerful laughter. She seemed to be very happy. The long-haired girl followed her gaze and saw a middle-aged couple sitting in the back row of the bus.

The man had a scholarly temperament, and the woman was gentle and virtuous. They were smiling at a little girl in a red dress in front of them.

The little girl was playing a tossing game with a boy sitting on the right side of the second last row. The red plastic ball flew between the seats, making the little girl giggle non-stop.

Feeling the long-haired girl’s gaze, the husband of the middle-aged couple looked up at the girl.

The middle-aged man’s eyes seemed to contain some kind of powerful aura. With just one look, the long-haired girl felt inexplicably flustered and hurriedly lowered her head.

When she looked up again, she found that the other party was no longer looking at her.

The long-haired girl was a little surprised. She wasn’t someone ignorant. She had only felt this kind of gaze from certain big shots.

Looking at the attire of this family of three, she immediately secretly labelled them as “not ordinary” in her heart.
