Chapter 980 Ordinary and Warm Small Apothecary (1)
Daoist Mu"s eyes widened and revealed a look of confusion. He stood there in a daze and looked at the person who was vomiting blood. He couldn"t believe his eyes.
In his heart, the other party should be incomparably powerful.
"Wha-What"s going on…"
Daoist Mu trembled and his breathing became extremely hurried. He felt the world spinning and his body began to feel sore. He couldn"t imagine why everything turned out like this, nor could he understand what cultivation level someone had to be able to make Master Black Pupil turn into this with a glance.
He also didn"t understand why such a person would come looking for him. He didn"t offend any experts.
While he was in a daze, Li Youfei sighed.
Although the other party had betrayed him, he was still his disciple. Hence, he stepped forward and grabbed Daoist Mu. He then walked in front of Xu Qing and lifted him up, quickly slapping him.
One slap after another disfigured Daoist Mu. Li Youfei spoke to Xu Qing respectfully.
"Master, do you think we should kill him?"
As soon as he said this, Daoist Mu immediately woke up from his daze. Pain appeared all over his body, but he didn"t dare to wail. Instead, he spoke with a trembling voice.
"Mas… Master, is there a misunderstanding? I, I… I didn"t offend anyone."
"Wasn"t it your men who destroyed the earth city"s apothecary?" Li Youfei glared at this rascal and gritted his teeth.
"Apothecary?" Daoist Mu"s entire body trembled and his eyes were filled with confusion. At the next instant, he thought of the earth city"s apothecary. His eyes suddenly widened and his mind instantly rumbled.
He remembered that there was an apothecary in earth city. Chen Fanzhuo had reminded him not to touch it.
However, he didn"t listen…
"How could this be? What kind of apothecary is that? How could this be…"
Daoist Mu"s heart was filled with regret and endless fear, his emotions fluctuating dramatically. Add to that the injuries inflicted by Li Youfei, and he lost consciousness right then and there.
Li Youfei looked at Daoist Mu"s expression and recalled the time he had taught him. He sighed in his heart and looked at Xu Qing pleadingly. He knew that his former disciple"s life and death depended on the other party"s thought.
Xu Qing saw Li Youfei"s pleading. His gaze swept past the unconscious Daoist Mu and he calmly spoke.
"I will give you two hours to return it to its original state."
Li Youfei took a deep breath, expressed his grat.i.tude with a bow to Xu Qing, and woke up the almost-dead Daoist Mu. He then grabbed Daoist Mu and flew away swiftly.
With Daoist Mu"s horrified realization of some of the truths, and under his frantic orders, everyone in their group worked tirelessly to restore Xu Qing"s small apothecary.
It wasn"t just the apothecary. All the buildings in the entire earth city were restored to their original appearance.
This speed showed that everyone was going all out and didn"t dare to slack off at all.
For the interior of the apothecary to be the same as before, Li Youfei even looked for Chen Fanzhuo. After all, the other party had entered the apothecary before and knew what it looked like. Hence, under Chen Fanzhuo"s guidance, the apothecary was basically the same.
In fact, the plaque had also been repaired. It was the same for the wooden board Xu Qing had hung on the door before he left.
As for the residents… At Li Youfei"s request, the people under Daoist Mu"s command all trembled and masked themselves as residents.
Daoist Mu was among them.
It had to be said that to a certain extent, this place had turned into a sect.
With everyone"s dedicated effort, the Green Spirit Hall appeared in earth city again.
Standing outside the small apothecary, Xu Qing looked at the familiar environment around him and relaxed. He then bowed to the heir beside him.
"Thank you, elder. After you."
Ling"er was also satisfied and said coquettishly to the prince.
"Thank you, grandpa, for helping me and Brother Xu Qing rebuild the apothecary."
The heir smiled and his gaze landed on the apothecary. He then walked in with his hands behind his back.
Xu Qing followed behind.
Ning Yan and Wu Jianwu glanced at Li Youfei, whose forehead was still sweating. They patted his shoulder and walked in.
As soon as they entered, Ling"er enthusiastically introduced the apothecary to the heir.
"Grandpa, this is the back room. Brother Xu Qing refines pills inside. As for me, I am always recording the accounts at the counter."
"Business is good."
As Ling"er spoke, she took out the gra.s.s seedling and placed it in its original location.
"There"s also it. Its name is Xiaomiao. It"s very cute. It usually dances when it"s happy."
The parrot immediately stared at it.
The gra.s.s seedling trembled and tried its best to sway.
When Ling"er introduced the different things, the captain sized them up from left to right. He then spoke to Xu Qing in a low voice.
"Little Qing, this shop is a little small. Can it accommodate so many people?"
When Li Youfei heard this, he hurriedly took out a jade slip and summoned his men. Very soon, the "residents" in the surroundings arrived and connected the buildings on both sides of the apothecary, expanding its size several times over.
After the work was finished, it was already dusk. As the earth city fell silent outside, the lanterns were ignited in this small apothecary, illuminating the interior of the apothecary and giving off a sense of warmth.
Under the light, everyone sat around the table in the apothecary, exchanging looks with each other.
The heir was toying with the parrot. Although Ning Yan and Wu Jianwu tried their best to get used to the existence of the Soul Acc.u.mulation elder beside them, the anxiety in their hearts couldn"t be dissipated in a short period of time. Now that they were sitting like this, they instantly felt as restless as a young wife.
Xu Qing and Ling"er were fine. The former was already used to it, while the latter was very good at making the old man like her.
As for the captain, he blinked. On the way here, he could tell that this heir should have two motives for coming to the Bitter Life Mountain Range. One was unknown but the second must be related to Xu Qing.
