Return From The Immortal World
Chapter 743: The Weird Turn of Events
Situ Hong's words surprised Tang Xiu. But then he realized that this man might know his identity as a cultivator. After all, regardless of whether he was the one selling the talismans needed by the Situ Family or the fact that he killed Jin Sanchi, Jin Sijie, and Daoist Qiankun, respectively, as well as the man responsible for the eradication of the eight talismans, the family and troops of Strange Doors, what and who he might have been investigated by the clan under Strange Doors.
He's scared of me.
Tang Xiu looked at Situ Hong with a deep gaze and could see a burst of fear from his eyes, making him immediately force a smile inside.
Beside him, Xue Yu felt astonished and surprised, while Huo Siming was even more astonished. No matter what he thought, he found it hard to believe. He could not think of why an old man went so far as to empty his pockets to buy such a precious fruit and then give it to another in vain? The most ridiculous thing was that he seemed to be afraid that the other party would not accept him and even spoke in an apologetic tone.
As for Black Widow, she was tongue-tied and dumbfounded with a look of disbelief thrown at her face. He could hardly believe his ears, as this man was the most honorable ancestor, a member of the Situ family. To him, he was a aloof and sublime figure, and yet, he spoke to Tang Xiu in such an obedient and humble manner. What was the most unacceptable fact to him was that this old ancestor of the Situ Family seemed to be .. afraid of the young man in front of this, and even tried ... to befall him?
What the hell is going on here?
Could there be a figure in China who could make such a character to frighten him, regardless of the status held by the Situ Family and the abilities possessed by their old ancestors?
Out of fear that Situ Hong was muddled by her aged brain, the Black Widow immediately reminded after returning to her senses, “Situ Elder, Senior. Are you not wrong? She's…"
"I'm not flawed or I'm wrong in recognizing her. ”Situ Hong said clearly. “My treatment of Grandmaster Tang a while ago was bad, a big mistake that I had to correct myself. Hence, I must replace Grandmaster Tang with this fruit. ”
With that said, he stepped forward in front of Tang Xiu and handed the Single Lion Fruit with both hands, saying, "Grandmaster Tang, please don't bend to my level of ignorance and forgive me. I sincerely admit my mistake and am willing to correct it. Please accept this fruit as a sign of my apology and give me a chance to make amends. ”
Tang Xiu was at a loss as to whether he should cry or laugh when he saw Situ Hong. He could not resist it because the old man had already said that. He received the Single Singer Fruit and then said with a smile, “You're Situ Hong, right? Those from the Situ Family were indeed good people. They can make me satisfied at all times. Fine . I received this Singular Recherche Fruit. ”
Situ Hong looked a little overjoyed and sincerely said, “Honor and pleasure are mine. By the way, it should be noon soon, may I ask if I can have the honor of inviting you to lunch, Grandmaster Tang? ”
Tang Xiu thought for a moment before shaking his head and saying, "I can't. There's something I need to tend to, so I can only skip your lunch invitations. However, I will send you a huge reward on this Singular Recherche Fruit account. You'd better go to Hong Kong half a month later to see Li Juren. I'm sure you can have a good harvest. ”
Li Juren's?
Situ Hong looked boring for a moment. He also knew Li Juren and had a bit of friendship with her. Although she did not know what great gift Tang Xiu would give her, she still respectfully replied, “I will visit Li Juren directly at that time. ”
Tang Xiu nodded in response and then said goodbye before leaving with Xue Yu. Their goal coming to the herbal medicine market was for this Single Singer Fruit, to begin with. Now that they obtained it, he did not want to stay here anymore.
Inside the office.
Situ Hong did not rush to leave. There was a relieved expression on his old face, like a heavy burden had been lowered from his shoulders. Even the wrinkles on his face stretched out and a smile rose to his face as he sat back on the sofa.
"Elder Situ, I don't understand," Black Widow said with clenched teeth after sitting down.
Huo Siming was also confused and echoed, “I don't understand either. I know that Tang Xiu is a young heavenly doctor who has recently appeared in the Chinese medical world and I also have a little admiration for him. Even so, though, given your status and identity, I still can't think of why you acted so … "
"very careful? Very respectful? Or so flattered? "
Situ Hong glanced at him. The smile on his face that used to be unchanged as he spoke, “He is not a person that deserves me to act like this if he is really just an ordinary person. But who exactly is he? The young heavenly doctor? … how honorable and to what degree his true identity is not something you can ever imagine . How honorable and to what extent his true identity is not something you can imagine. All right, forget all this. This is something you should not know. In short, remember that you should not offend him in the future. Best if you can see it as a small ancestor … "
Hmph.
Huo Siming snorted inwardly disdain but did not deny Situ Hong on the surface. He was only a herbal medicine merchant and was already an old man, but it was impossible for him to not have skin and not be ashamed like Situ Hong.
Besides, is the Situ Family famous? He knew many prominent families from different provinces, but never once had he heard of a famous family by the surname Situ.
The Black Widow noticed and attached great importance to Situ Hong's warning. He firmly nodded and looked towards the door with a somewhat complicated expression. He knew Situ Hong's status in the Situ Family. The man could even get the people from the Situ Family to subconsciously smile at him in response to his casual words. Regardless of his highly respected and honorable status in Strange Doors, he still had to respect him before?
But then again ... exactly which holy being is this Tang Xiu?
Tang Xiu planned to go straight away, but then Xue Yu said that she had to buy some additional medicinal herbs for the medicinal dietary supplement, instead, so she had to follow him looking for them in every store and stall to buy them. In just half an hour, he saw Xue Yu purchase additional medicinal herbs and spend over 270 thousand yuan.
How wasteful! Tang Xiu couldn't bear it but quietly shook his head.
Finally, when the last medicinal herb that Xue Yu bought was wrapped, she then said with a slightly regretful expression, “I have bought all the medicinal herbs necessary to make this medicinal diet. But what a pity this place is not in the Miao area, otherwise I would get the most important supplement herb, ginseng, rather than the artificially cultivated common ginseng. ”
"Say, young lady, do you know the price of wild ginseng?" Tang Xiu forced a smile. “Let's take Millennium Wild Ginseng for example; you won't be able to buy it without setting up nine digits. You told me earlier that the Singular Recherche Fruit was worth more than nine digits. So, coupled with Millennium Wild Ginseng and other additional herbs, you should spend 200 to 300 million yuan just to make one medicinal diet alone. This ... isn't this just a waste of money ?! Even the richest person in the world will not be able to resist the way you throw it over and over again. ”
Xue Yu simply smiled in response. Although both of her hands carried many bags, she went to Tang Xiu's side to approach and smiled lightly. “Diet the medicine I will make for you this time is not the same as the diet I used to give you. It was made based on a note written by my family's ancestors. According to him, this medicinal diet will be like a panacea and provide great benefits for people who take it. I'm afraid even I myself can't drink much even if I want to. ”
"Why?" Tang Xiu asked, puzzled.
"My body can't take away medical efficacy, that's why," Xue Yu said.
Tang Xiu's eyes lit up. He thought about it and then firmly said, “Since you really want to go on a perfect medicinal diet, then I'll follow your intentions. I have Millennium Wild Ginseng. I'll give it to you after we get back to the apartment. ”
"really?" Xue Yu's expression changed greatly and asked happily.
"Of course, this is real!" Tang Xiu answered quickly. "When have I, Tang Xiu, ever lied? Just relax, right? You can only use this little bit of Wild Millennium Ginseng! Moreover, it was quite difficult to obtain wild ginseng at this time. Finding it can make your hair erect due to distress. ”
Four hours later.
The Tomson Villa apartment. Although Tang Xiu was sitting in the living room, a strong medicinal fragrance fluttered around and filled the entire hall. Be it back in the Eternal World or after returning, he had consumed quite a number of medicinal diets of every kind. But this time, the scent alone had stirred up his meal. Something that rarely happens to him.
"Good . Wash your hands and have them. ”
Xue Yu came out of the kitchen with a purple apron and casserole in her hand. When he came to the dining room, he carefully unfolded the purple casserole lid while Tang Xiu washed his hands. The smell of soft and fragrant medicinal food smelled inside the room very quickly. After putting it in front of Tang Xiu, he quickly said, "You are a cultivator, so you are very strong. Notice after you take it not to ignore the efficacy and the energy contained in this medicine dies because of its taste. ”
Tang Xiu simply smiled and paid no heed to her words. As he prepared to take the bowl and drink it, he saw Xue Yu take a small spoon of medicine from the casserole and then use a pink tongue to lick it in a careful and careful manner.
Right! He's licking.
Tang Xiu had gotten used to the serious and cold Xue Yu. Now that he saw her appearance using her sensual pink tongue to lick the medicinal diet, an unusual feeling of alluring feelings and even a strong urge burst out within him and made his lower abdomen feel hot.
I'll be damned!
Tang Xiu hurriedly lowered his head and quietly shouted the "Heart-fire Cleansing Art" to suppress the heat there. At this time, taking a medicinal diet is the most important thing to do. After all, despite being less than two bowls, this medicinal diet had burned 200 to 300 million yuan; a large sum of money.
What a luxury!
After all, drinking it made Tang Xiu feel a pinch. After he swallowed it, a powerful burst of hot sensation instantly burst open. It was as if it had turned into thousands of strands of heat, like tidal waves flowing into its limbs and bones.
"Drink fast, Tang Xiu. The efficacy will be very leaky once the lid is opened. The earlier you drink it, the more efficacy it will maintain, ”Xue Yu looked up and reminded Tang Xiu. He finally stopped licking the medicinal diet after carefully sipping it.
Tang Xiu looked dull and immediately swallowed all the medicinal diet in a bowl. There was a worried expression on Xue Yu's face as she directly poured the rest of the medicinal diet in the purple casserole into her half bowl, and swallowed it into her stomach.
"Hot!"
After Tang Xiu finished it, that was the only sensation he felt. Not only did he feel the heat on his skin, he felt the heat all over his body, and even his internal organs were also as if they were wrapped by a terrifying heat.
At this moment, regardless of how hard his determination was, Tang Xiu still felt dizzy by the sudden burst of medicinal strength as he felt that his entire body seemed to have to become a smelting furnace.
