Chapter 92: Black suitcase, RMB, and… qi and blood pill!

After returning to Jiangnan College Town, Song Shuhang did not immediately look for Zhao Yaya, but went to the five-storied apartment Medicine Master had purchased instead.

He was still carrying that black suitcase belonging to Altar Master. There was a high chance that there would be the four rare medicinal herbs he had purchased inside, so if he allowed Zhao Yaya to find these few ingredients within the suitcase… even if Song Shuhang had jumped the Yellow River… no, it was, even if he jumped into the Pacific Ocean, he wouldn’t be able to clear his name.

It goes without saying that, at that time, Zhao Yaya would definitely call Mama Song, and Shuhang’s mother would reach Jiangnan College Town via an airplane on the following day.

Furthermore, who knows what other terrifying things that could cause misunderstandings were there in Altar Master’s black suitcase?

If he didn’t handle this suitcase beforehand, how could he met Zhao Yaya?

As he had the keys, he walked to the third story after opening the door. Afterwards, he found Medicine Master alone, crouching at a corner while playing with his phone. He did not see Riverly Purple Mist’s figure anywhere.

“Senior, are you busy?” Shuhang walked towards Medicine Master and inquired.

Ever since Medicine Master came to Jiangnan College Town District, he had always been busying himself with improving Body Tempering Liquid, and Shuhang has never seen him staying idle before. It was a rare scene to see him resting.

“Oh, Shuhang, you’re back.” Medicine Master did not raise his head. His fingers were still rapidly moving on the screen.

“Whatcha playing?” Shuhang moved closer and took a look.

Afterwards, his entire being felt uncomfortable.

To think that Medicine Master had actually been stealing vegetables from other people’s farm, and in the list of his good friends that stole vegetables too, Shuhang could see the leading actors—True Monarch Yellow Mountain, Northern River’s Loose Cultivator, Xuan Nu Sect’s Skylark, Wandering Monk Profound Principle, and a few other familiar-looking IDs from Nine Provinces Number One Group. These were all seniors within the group.

Furthermore, there were Three Seas Five Islands Master, Oceanic Duo Dragon Cave Master, Seven Stars Boxing Sect’s Deputy Sect Master… and similar names that seemed to be cultivators from their IDs.

I say… are the senior cultivators all idle till their balls hurt? Why are there so many people wasting time time on this vegetable stealing game?

Your disciples would cry, okay!?

Your sect masters would cry too, okay!?

“Settled. That fella Northern River had actually come up with a small external automated crops collecting programme. But, that’s no use~~ esteemed me has long set up an alarm to steal all his house’s crops within minutes. He’s too naive! How can an external program’s vegetable collecting speed be compared to esteemed me’s hand speed!” Medicine Master had even told Song Shuhang while being immensely proud of himself.

Senior… I say, how good would that be if you could use your hand speed to train your typing?

“Also, it’s not that I’m trying to scold you, but don’t be like a miser that only knows how to hoard gold coins. If you have the money, upgrade your land’s level. That way, your vegetables will ripen faster. Don’t forget your wood chopping skills by only honing your knife skills.” Medicine Master said towards Song Shuhang in a sincere and earnest manner.

“…” Song Shuhang did not know what sort of expression he should use in reply to Medicine Master.

“Oh right, you were looking for me?” Medicine Master finally returned to the main topic.

Shuhang nodded his head in silence and put the black suitcase on the small table before speaking, “I would like for Senior to help me see if there’s any sort of traps within this suitcase. I obtained this after killing Altar Master from Claw Marks Beast Head Medallion. The other party was an evil cultivator, thus I don’t dare to rashly open this suitcase.”

“To be able to think of this matter, you’re pretty good.” Medicine Master nodded his head. There were several merits on Song Shuhang such as being daring yet careful. In regards to his disposition, he was suited for this profession of being a cultivator. The only regret was that his age was slightly too advanced, and he had lost the inborn true qi from his mother’s womb.

If only he could have come into contact with the world of cultivation earlier… It was a pity, but there weren’t so many ‘ifs’ in the world.

After Medicine Master took the black suitcase, his right hand pressed on it.

“It was indeed tampered with, but this insignificant trick poses no problem for me.” He laughed as his right hand took in and send out true qi.

“Pa! Pa! Pa!”

Sounds of glass shattering transmitted from the black suitcase, and faintly, a mournful ghost’s cry could be heard…

“It’s done, you can open it.” Medicine Master passed the suitcase over to Shuhang.

Shuhang extended his hands and opened it.

What entered his eyes were stacks of RMB, with 100k in a stack. There were seven stacks in total, along with one stack that wasn’t bundled properly. Most probably, Altar Master had used part of that sum of money recently.

In total, there were approximately 800k RMB. If placed in a bank, it would most probably be a string of numbers, but when the notes were placed right in front, it did have visual impact.

When Song Shuhang saw the fully packed RMB, he felt disappointed instead.

He thought that with Altar Master’s identity, the suitcase he carried along with him would definitely be loaded with good cultivation items. He didn’t think that it would be stacks of RMB.

The higher the expectations, the greater disappointment one feels.

Song Shuhang took a deep breath. Alright, if it’s just RMB, then so be it. Coincidentally, he was lacking money recently—he had been preparing to find a well-equipped gym to train at, and purchase all sorts of exercising equipment. This was to ensure that his body’s qi and blood was sufficient. He also planned on ensuring the quality of his daily meals.

Once he thought that way, this 800k seemed to be pretty good. Just like in game, even if one bypassed ranks to kill a mob and it didn’t drop any good equipment, the gold dropped would definitely be sufficient.

Medicine Master softly chuckled and gently reminded him. “Little Friend, do not be blinded by the mortal money. As long as you successfully establish your foundation in the future, you can get as much as you want. These notes are used as a cover to confuse others. The genuine treasures are below the money, in the hidden compartment within the suitcase.”

“Hidden compartment?” Song Shuhang quickly poured out all the money. As expected, he found a layer of partition below the suitcase. It’d be easily neglected if one didn’t attentively check the suitcase.

Instantly, Song Shuhang was delighted.

He lifted that partition board and saw several small bottles that were as big as chewing gum bottles. There were a total of fourteen small bottles, separated into red and blue colors, along with a golden box that was as big as an A5 notebook.

Firstly, he took out the blue bottle and enquired, “Senior, these bottles shouldn’t have been tampered with, right?”

“Rest assured, I’ve cleared up all the insignificant tricks within.” Medicine Master dashingly flung his head, and a head full of densely packed braids facing the skies—along with all sorts of cute ornaments—produced sharp and clear sounds as braids collided with each other.

This was a hairstyle that was worth ridiculing!

Song Shuhang hardened his own expression so as not to laugh in front of Medicine Master—perhaps Senior Medicine Master loved this hairstyle, so what would he do if he were to laugh at it and cause Medicine Master to be angry?

The blue bottles’ quantity was higher as there were a total of twelve bottles. Shuhang opened one bottle and looked inside.

What he saw inside the bottle was thick black liquid, with a stinking smell. “Body Tempering Liquid?!”

This color, this smell… without a doubt, it was Body Tempering Liquid!

Medicine Master took a breath and replied, “Yes, this is Body Tempering Liquid that wasn’t simplified. The quality is passable. After you’ve cultivated for an entire month and your body has strengthened to a sufficient degree, you can consume this old version of Body Tempering Liquid, its medicinal properties are much stronger. One mouthful is comparable with three mouthfuls of simplified Body Tempering Liquid.

“It came timely! Senior Northern River had reminded me previously that even if all the medicinal herbs Soft Feather had gifted me previously were to refined into Body Tempering Liquid, it might not be enough for my Foundation Establishment. If I were to add this batch of Body Tempering Liquid, it should be sufficient for me to use until I’ve completed my Foundation Establishing?” Song Shuhang smiled happily.

“It’ll be sufficient, so much that there might be some leftovers.” Medicine Master replied.

There’d be leftovers? This was really great news.

Afterwards, Shuhang opened a red bottle.

This bottle contained small medicinal pills, with eleven in total. Once he opened the other one, the fragrance assailed his nostrils, and he saw it contained fifteen pills.

“Senior, what medicinal pill is this?” Song Shuhang enquired.

Medicine Master took a whiff, and shortly after, his face turn odd as he replied. “It’s qi and blood pill, the quality meets the standard requirement!”
