Chapter 40: Chapter 28 Sedative_3
Translator: 549690339
At this point in the conversation, Zhou Ze began referring to Lu Yuan as a Jianghu person instead of a hunter.
Apparently, asking for the sedative has changed his impression in the other party’s mind.
However, for Lu Yuan, he didn’t mind.
Since he had prepared himself and had asked for the sedative, it already meant he had stepped into the Jianghu.
In fact, he had already become a Jianghu person after the slaughter during his Southsea journey.
But this Jianghu person was still weak and could only use a hunter’s identity as cover.
“How much?” Lu Yuan asked.
“One hundred silver tales.” Zhou Ze looked at him, with a trace of complexity flashing in his eyes as if to use the price to discourage him one last time.
But it was bound to be futile.
“Alright, I’ll buy it.”
Lu Yuan reached out and took a large bag of silver tales from his bosom and placed it on the counter.
Since he planned to buy a sedative, he had brought most of his savings with him.
As for spending a hundred silver tales on sedatives?
Having an extra means of self-preservation and enhancing his chances of survival was more important to him as a longevity-seeker than anything else.
In comparison, wealth could be gradually accumulated over time.
‘At worst, the Arrow God of Dayu Mountain will go on another Jianghu adventure in Southsea,’ he thought to himself.
Alright, some things, once done, are like opening a switch that can’t be turned back.
Like hunting.
Zhou Ze heard the reply and looked away disappointedly. He then went to the back hall and returned with an aged yellow paper and a large bag of herbs in his hands. “Take it, this is the formula and a certain amount of herbs, enough for you to make sedatives for more than ten people.”
“Thank you, Dr. Zhou.” Lu Yuan’s face brightened, and he reached out to take it.
Zhou Ze pressed his hand on the bag of herbs, looked into his eyes, and said earnestly, “Remember, after you leave the pharmacy, everything you do has nothing to do with me. Your affairs in Jianghu won’t involve me either. Can you do that?”
Lu Yuan looked at the doctor with a serious expression and said, “Yes. After I leave, I’ll just be a regular hunter who often buys medicines. I only came to Dr. Zhou for treatment because living in the mountains for a long time has taken a
toll on my body.”
Zhou Ze nodded and said, “As long as you know. I don’t like trouble, and I’m not interested in the affairs of Jianghu. I just want to be a peaceful doctor who treats illnesses and eventually pass this shop on to Xiaoqing.”
As he said this, Dr. Zhou couldn’t help but sigh inwardly.
Perhaps one day, he would no longer see this interesting guest in front of him.
Jianghu.
These two characters seem to have magic, attracting countless hot-blooded young people to step in.
But how would these young people know?
Once one enters Jianghu, it’s nothing but a heap of white bones. No one knows when they’ll fall and become one of them.
Like the owner of the “Seven-step Fragrance” sedative, even though he had it with him, he still couldn’t hold on to his life and died directly in the clinic, possessing nothing.
As a doctor who treats illnesses and injuries, Zhou Ze had seen many people who died due to Jianghu feuds.
Now, looking at Lu Yuan, it was as if he saw those dead people he had seen in the past.
As for Dr. Zhou’s thoughts, Lu Yuan didn’t know.
Even if he knew, he wouldn’t care.
Are you kidding? As a longevity seeker and the Arrow God of Dayu Mountain, would he be one of those involved in the messy Jianghu fights?
When it comes to cherishing life, no one can compare to him.
If he really endured, by the time all of Zhou Ze’s descendants were gone, he would still be alive.
So, any grudges, for Lu Yuan, could be endured through time.
Time would erase everything and kill all enemies.
He didn’t need to fight life and death with others.
He just needed to endure.
So, buying the sedative was really just for self-defense.
Someone just thought too much.
“Thank you for today, Dr. Zhou.”
At the doorway of the pharmacy, the smiling Lu Yuan bowed to Zhou Ze and said, “I’ll come again next month, take care Dr. Zhou.”
After saying that, with a backpack on his back, he turned and walked towards the outskirts of the city..
