Chapter 66 Things Were Getting Serious

Today was the last day of May. The college entrance examination would soon take place.

Most of the students who were about to graduate from high school were more and more excited, and they would take part in all kinds of private gatherings.

Some of the students in the average classes who had no hope of going to college were drunk all day in the small store at the school gate, and some of them would even take the chance to curse their teacher or confess their love to someone when they were drunk at the school gate.

Although Han Dong didn't drink, many people were willing to invite him to their parties because he was popular.

Han Dong was not used to refusing others, so in the end, he had to bite the bullet and attend the parties one after another.

Therefore, other than the time he spent in school, there was no time for him and Lu Yao to have a good talk with each other.

After Lin Jiayi took the exam and came back from Xindu, she asked for leave intermittently. Although she claimed that she asked for leave because of personal matters, Lu Yao knew that it must be related to the strange feeling he sensed from Lin Jiayi last time.

Lu Yao could be considered to live the most regular life among the few of them.

Every day, apart from learning, he cultivated. Other than cultivating, he would try refining various medicinal pills under Li Jiang's guidance.

Lu Yao had tempered himself strictly over and over again during this period. With Li Jiang's guidance, practicing Tuiyun Hand and Poti Fist was as casual as learning and eating for Lu Yao. Even if he practiced dozens of times, he would no longer feel sore in his body.

He had also practiced the Leaf Picking Technique to the point of perfection. He could release ten hidden weapons at the same time with both his hands, and he could do it twice in a few seconds.

All in all, Lu Yao was now able to launch a strike on twenty men with the precision of a tracking missile in just a few seconds.

Sometimes, Lu Yao even thought that if he had possessed this strength when he was in Mount Yunwu, even if he was inexperienced, Qian Hu would probably have been crippled by him.

Although there was no specific reference that he could use to test his current strength, Lu Yao could clearly feel that his strength had improved a lot. He could lift something weighing much heavier than 350 kilograms.

However, what made Lu Yao most excited was not these things, but the fact that he could clearly feel the presence of spiritual power in his Cinnabar Field.

His spiritual power had been faint and weak, but it grew stronger under these days of intense cultivation.

Although it was still like a naughty child, constantly moving unsteadily against the will of Lu Yao, it still showed signs of improvement as it gradually took shape.

For cultivators, after entering the Qi Cultivation Phase, they could be considered to have truly entered the realm of cultivation. At the same time, they would need a large amount of treasures and elixirs endowed by the heavens and earth to assist in their cultivation.

Only after personally experiencing it did Lu Yao understand why it was difficult for those who cultivated by themselves to achieve great accomplishments, even if they showed stunning abilities in the early stage of their lives.

On the other hand, through the accumulation of countless precious medicines and pills, those big sects with heritages and long histories could even help mediocre men make great achievements that were beyond the reach of others for their entire lives however hard they tried.

You had to spend a large amount of money if you wanted to cultivate yourself to immortality. Once you stepped on this road, you couldn't achieve much without money.

Therefore, in these days, Lu Yao and Li Jiang discussed and came up with a plan to make a fortune: refining pills.

As Lu Yao's strength increased, Lu Yao's success rate of refining simple pills was relatively high when he was under Li Jiang's guidance.

These simple pills that Li Jiang mentioned were practically omnipotent in Lu Yao's eyes. People suffering from headache, fever, or diarrhea just needed to take one of these and the illness would be immediately cured. In the case of those who were paralyzed or had blurred visions, after taking one of these pills, they would immediately start recovering.

And the most important thing was that the cost of these omnipotent pills was very low, and he could refine many pills with just a few dozen yuan.

Recently, Lu Yao bought a lot of medicinal herbs from different pharmacy stores in Shuangta City to refine these pills that Li Jiang had mentioned. Then, he took the pills to the Sanbao Pharmacy and left them there for sale.

Today was the day for them to settle accounts. Lu Yao was ready to go over and buy medicinal herbs with the money he had earned previously, and then come back to continue improving his pill refining skills.

Moreover, he could also go to the Sanbao Pharmacy's third floor to see if he could find some precious medicinal herbs.

...

...

"Get up! Do you think that this matter will be over if you sit on the ground and refuse to get up? Don't even think about it!" A young man who was sleek-haired and creamy-faced and dressed in a weird style arrogantly pointed to an old man sitting on the ground and cursed.

A woman who was dressed in a white suit and wearing high heels of seven or eight centimetres seemed to be the manager. She stood beside the young man and said respectfully, "Young Master Wang, you see, the quarrel has seriously affected our business. How about you..."

"So what if it affects your business?" The young man who was called Young Master Wang put on an unforgiving expression. He looked at the old man on the ground and the woman beside him like a wolf and said with a fake smile, "My father is an honored guest invited by your Boss Fang today. Is this how you treat an honored guest?"

"..."

As soon as Lu Yao entered the Sanbao Pharmacy, he saw that the hall on the first floor was filled with people, making the spacious hall seem a little crowded.

The stairs to the second floor were also full of people at this time. Lu Yao had wanted to go directly to the third floor, but he was also blocked far away. For a moment, people could neither go in nor come out.

Lu Yao had no choice but to stand there and become a spectator. He looked at the place where the quarrel was taking place in the middle of the crowd.

Lu Yao knew the woman who wore the white suit. This woman was called Fang Yi, and she was the manager of the Sanbao Pharmacy's first floor lobby and the customer service manager of the entire pharmacy.

When Lu Yao first came here to sell pills, it was Fang Yi who received him.

This woman was truly a competent lobby manager of the Sanbao Pharmacy. She was skillful at communicating with different types of people.

If it was someone else who came here at that time, then the contract of pill consignment contract would probably be full of disadvantageous terms for Lu Yao.

Being a shrewd businesswoman, Fang Yi wasn't trying to help the old man out of trouble, but she knew that if this situation escalated, it wouldn't matter to others, but it would seriously affect the business in the first floor lobby that she was in charge of.

Moreover, Young Master Wang's father was currently having a talk with the boss in his office. Although the boss didn't usually come to his office, if the matter continued to develop like this, there would be much trouble for her if the boss looked into the matter.

Lu Yao did not know that arrogant and domineering Young Master Wang, but looking at his greasy hair and his weird appearance, he felt a trace of disgust.

Lu Yao was not a hypocritical person. He wouldn't indiscriminately take up the cudgel on behalf of the victim of injustice. Right now, he was sorting out what on earth had happened through the words coming from the crowd.

After standing in the crowd for a while, Lu Yao almost knew the whole story.

The old man's wife was sick, and his son and daughter were too busy with work. The old man did not want to disturb their work, so he found an unlicensed doctor to see his wife and prescribe some medicine.

Because his wife was at home alone at this time, the old man was a little worried. After buying the medicine, he hurriedly went back.

When he turned around, he accidentally knocked the diamond ring in Young Master Wang's hand to the ground. The ring was worth hundreds of thousands of yuan.

What was even more unfortunate was that no one was able to find the diamond ring after searching for quite a while. Perhaps it had been picked up by some petty man who was greedy for money.

In short, no matter how hard the staff of the Sanbao Pharmacy tried, they could not find the diamond ring that was extremely valuable according to Ma Xiaolin.

The old man wanted to send the medicine back to his wife and let her take it. He promised to come back to discuss the matter of the diamond ring.

However, Young Master Wang was unwilling to let him go and even pushed the old man and said abusive words to him.

When Lu Yao entered the door, he heard the conversation.

"This young man is too rude to the old man. He is really going too far!"

"What are you talking about? Didn't you hear what that young man said? That is a diamond ring worth hundreds of thousands, not dozens of yuan. It costs a huge sum of money. Who wouldn't be angry if such a fortune was missing? And who knows if the old man will come back or not?"

"Respecting the elders and protecting the children is our long-cherished tradition. Money is just a worldly possession. We can't just ignore courtesy and principles merely for a diamond ring. This is ridiculous!" A middle-aged man wearing traditional style clothes said.

"..."

"..."

For a moment, there were people who were in favor of the old man, and there were also people who felt sorry for the young man.

At this time, what Lu Yao was most concerned about was not the diamond ring, but the health of the old man sitting on the ground.

Because as he stood in the middle of the crowd and saw the people in the middle, he had been carefully staring at the old man's face, which was gradually getting darker. He felt that there was a problem with the old man's body.

"Manager Fang, I advise you not to get involved in this matter. This is not something that a small lobby manager like you can solve. I think you should ask Boss Fang to show up!" Young Master Wang waved at the onlookers and said impatiently.

Fang Yi looked at Young Master Wang and she really wanted to teach him a lesson.

He was just the son of an insignificant hospital director and he dared to ask their boss to show up. He really had an exaggerated opinion of his abilities.

"Young Master Wang, this is not good!" Fang Yi wanted to remind him, but there were too many people around, and she could not tell him in a low voice. That was why she kept hinting at him again and again. However, unexpectedly, Young Master Wang was simply an i***t and he did not understand her at all.

"Look! Look at that old man's face. It seems that something is wrong!"

Suddenly someone in the crowd shouted.

"Ah, he really looks unwell!"

"Come on! The old man is pretending. He obviously wants to get out of this mess!"

When Young Master Wang and Fang Yi were talking, the place was quiet. But now people were discussing loudly once again.

"Old man, I tell you, don't try to trick me. I have seen tricks like this many times!" At this time, Young Master Wang did not realize the seriousness of the problem at all. He also thought that the old man wanted to trick him and he poked the old man's waist with the tip of his foot.

Unexpectedly, the old man's body seemed to be stiff, and he fell down straight over.

Fang Yi was relatively close to the old man and she noticed that something was wrong with the old man. Just as the old man was about to fall, she immediately bent down and supported him.

"Ding, the man said that he had a heatstroke. Hurry up and invite Dr. Hu. He is working today. Ask him to see this old man!" Fang Yi said to the receptionist who was wearing a high slit cheongsam and standing behind her.

Fang Yi was able to work here because she also knew a little about medicine. Despite the heatstroke stuff she said, she was very clear that things were getting serious.
