The Strongest God System 3
Chapter 190: Opening a Herbal Shop
Lao Mingxan came to a realization as the sound of a middle man coughing; he walked towards the desk where there was a pile of paper scrolls. "What's your shop name?"
Lin Chen smiled thinly and was silent for a while, then raised his hand. "Chenlong."
Despite not opening a sect in the Qiuzan Star, he should at least still carry the name Chenlong; it was impossible for him to use any other name.
Lao Mingxan wrote Chenlong's name on a red paper roll and gave him a stamp or signature, then gave the plate another sign that Lin Chen was guaranteed medical ability.
Lin Chen received a red Wood Plate with a gold engraving inscribed with ⁇ or Yaopin which means 'Medicine'. "What about the Doctor? Can I take the test here?"
Lao Mingxan was stunned with his mouth slightly open, like hearing something so shocking and never expected of him. A healer? It was an ability that was more difficult than a Medicinal Expert, and usually only an Immortal could become a Physician because it was able to use spiritual energy.
"Can you use spiritual energy?" lao Mingxan— asked his speech more gently; trying to be polite out of fear that his interlocutor was Immortal and he offended him.
Lin Chen was stunned with round eyes, then chuckled softly while waving his hand. "Hahaha, how could I possibly be an Immortal. Even if I am an Immortal, why would I come to the city and open a herb shop? Wouldn't it be better to travel in search of treasures and challenge powerful opponents?"
"But, how do you want to take the Physician's test if you don't have spiritual energy?" Lao Mingxan still could not believe that Lin Chen was just an ordinary human, having survived the Gui Residence that had been avoided.
Lin Chen started to get annoyed at continuing to get questions, but he tried to hold it all down so as not to go to waste, it was quite difficult for him to remain patient during this one day. "I am not a Physician who can cure Immortal diseases such as Meridian Blockage or so on, I am only able to help Mortal's usual illness."
Lao Mingxan observed Lin Chen in silence without even blinking an eye.
Lin Chen waited for a reply from Lao Mingxan who had been silent for quite a long time, until he finally said goodbye after Yan Xue pulled his sleeve. "Then, I return, I should get ready to open the herb shop tomorrow."
Lao Mingxan let Lin Chen out speechlessly or held him back; it was indeed impossible for any Immortal to stay in Fanren City. And, as for the matter of the Gui Residence, perhaps it was just a coincidence if Lin Chen was a bearer of good luck who was able to eliminate the invisible things of evil.
Lin Chen had already exited the Medicine Pavilion, they had directly returned to the Lin Residence.
"What's wrong?" Lin Chen felt that there was something very important, which was why Yan Xue tried to take him away.
Yan Xue held Lin Chen's hand; wanting to make it clear that Lin Chen was hers; doing this because of the myriad gazes that were fixed on her husband.
"Maybe because Gege lost his spiritual consciousness, Gege did not know it. To take the Physician test, it was done in another city five hundred miles from here."
Lin Chen nodded his head, finally knowing why Lao Mingxan looked like he did not know how to tell about the Physician test, instead continuing to ask unnecessary questions.
Physician, Lin Chen could do so without having to use spiritual energy to maintain the state of the silver needle or help the patient's energy flow. He can use the Shendu Needle Technique, the way is to puncture needles with a certain depth and each acupoint has its own depth.
It was even more difficult, because if using spiritual energy, the pierced needle had the same depth. But, with his long experience, he could do so even with his eyes closed.
"We can't go there, it's too time consuming. Now, it's better to run the shop, if there's a disease that's hard to cure with herbs, then I'll use a silver needle." Lin Chen found it extremely troublesome to have to go to another city 500 miles away.
If one day was able to cover a distance of 40 miles, then they would spend at least 12 days just to travel. He only spent time traveling, not enough to understand the meaning of Life according to Mortal.
Yan Xue simply nodded her head; following the wishes of Lin Chen who wanted to live here, although she could take him away there in a matter of seconds. But since this was the wish of her husband, she would obey him. However, if anyone were to look for trouble and ruin their current calm, he would act silently.
When it had reached the Lin Residence, there were already many people gathered on the main road, either the person who moved house in front of the Lin Residence or even next to it.
Lin Chen smiled faintly giving greetings to everyone who greeted, and when he was already in front of the gate, he pushed him slowly.
The gate opened slowly, revealing a fresh green courtyard with beautiful flowers decorating the courtyard; fresh air could also be felt along with a calming aura, even ordinary humans could feel the difference.
If Cultivators stayed here, they would be very satisfied and would not want to go anywhere else, due to the extremely rich spiritual aura. This could also be a problem if a Cultivator or one who could be called an Immortal came to Fanren City.
Lin Chen closed the gate slowly, then he smelled a fragrant scent emanating from the tree. He turned to look left behind, or when he entered through the gate and turned to the right, he could already see the tree.
"Jujube? Who would have thought I could find it here, on Earth it is not too rare, but it is very difficult to find it here."
Jujube can be processed as sweets or tea by slicing thinly and drying it to dry, then ready to brew, or can also be eaten directly.
Lin Chen raised his hand trying to grab the jujube, then tried the taste. "Enak, maybe because I sealed the power, I can't feel anything other than good. But, it should contain abundant and pure spiritual energy ..."
"Perhaps, equivalent to a Gold-level Qi Gathering Pill."
Lin Chen picked even more and gave it to Yan Xue, asking her to make tea, not only for her own consumption, but also for her to sell.
The building to open the shop had yet to be built, but it seemed like Lin Chen was going to use the front room of his house. There was no way he could build a house within a day, although he could do it in seconds, only that he did not want to attract too much attention.

Next Day
Today was the anticipated opening day of Chenlong Herbal; happiness emanated clearly from the face of Lin Chen who finally had his own shop. This is included in one of his dream list if still on Earth and not become a Developer.
Bai Hu, Xuanwu Jianqi, Zhu Que and Qing Long no longer knew what to react to when they saw their all-powerful or domineering Master, choose to live like a normal human in a small town like this. It would be more convenient if their Master remained in Chen City, Star Qiang, since everything could be obtained without having to bother.
The four Sacred Beasts themselves were brought by Xue Ying through the Dimensional Space, and served as guards as well as workers in Chenlong Herbs.
Lin Chen put together a table that had a barrier and put herbs and spices in his group, and for the herbs that were inside the jar, it was herbs that were already processed or that were susceptible to air.
Xuanwu Jianqi came to Yan Xue who was at the entrance preparing to put up the decoration. "Madam, does Mister have to be like this? You don't deserve to live life like a normal human being."
Yan Xue sighed; thinking the same thing about what Xuanwu Jianqi was thinking. "I also felt that Gege didn't need to do this, but how hard we tried to prevent him, he still didn't listen and wanted to live an ordinary human life."
Zhu Que came up and stood beside Xuanwu di, he snorted coldly in annoyance at having to stand opposite. "Madam, if I may know, why did you do this?"
Xuanwu Jianqi felt the same way; annoyed at standing beside Zhu Que, but he did not leave out of curiosity.
Yan Xue turned her face to look at Lin Chen. "Gege was understanding the meaning of Life from a Mortal point of view, he was doing so because he was trying to break through the Realm God."
"Booking into the Realm God has different ways, and Gege chose to try this way in hopes of breaking through." Yan Xue also hoped that if everything could go smoothly without any problems at all.
Xuanwu Jianqi and Zhu Que nodded their heads trying to understand, although they still did not really understand because they were now only up to Huangdi.
"Sister, Yi'er is done installing the Name Plang in front." Xue Ying slightly shouted as he waved his hand.
Lin Chen had also finished compiling all the herbs according to their respective groups: dried, fresh, processed, durable, perishable herbs and so on.
"Alright, everything is done, now is the time to open Chenlong Herbal."
Lin Chen walked out of the house towards the gate that was already closed again by Xue Ying. When he arrived, he paused for a moment and held the doorknob, then opened it.
Many people had already gathered in front, either because they wanted to buy herbs or just because they wanted to see the Gui Residence which had been renamed Lin. There were even some important people in Fanren City who had come in disguise to have their identities unknown.
