Becoming Immortal Through Getting Married

Chapter 68 Mortal Kungfu (33)

Leaving the house, Chen An went straight to Fangshi.

When passing a trail along the river, I saw a familiar figure squatting by the river, looking down at the water surface rippled by the wind in a daze.

It is Mo Lifang's son, Dabao.

When seeing this small figure, now alone squatting by the river in a daze, Chen An felt mixed feelings.

He calmed down, walked to Dabao's side and asked with a smile:

"Dabao, do you still remember me?"

"Well, remember, you are Uncle Chen Danshi who lives diagonally across from my house."

Dabao said with a dull expression.

Chen An sat down beside him, smiled and asked:

"Dabao, why are you squatting by the river by yourself in a daze?"

"I'm waiting for my mother to come to me."

Dabao replied innocently, but he didn't know that his mother was already dead, and the person who killed his mother was sitting beside him.

Chen An looked at Dabao beside him, and then looked up at the sky, feeling an indescribable melancholy in his heart.

At this time, there was a sudden burst of elderly shouts from the front.

"Big treasure!"

"What's the matter with you kid, why do you keep running to the river?!"

"The last time you didn't drown, you were lucky enough to meet the old man. Do you still expect the old man to save you every time?"

Following the yelling, Chen An saw an old monk walking over.

He looks very old, with a stooped figure, lack of complexion, and many age spots on his face. He looks very old, very old.

Chen An knew this old monk. He was a small vendor who lived in the North Alley and made a living by catching spirit fish. He had met him a few times when he set up a stall in the square market.

"Pill Master Chen, why are you here?"

The old monk saw Chen An, showing his old yellow teeth that were about to fall out, and smiled wrinkledly.

Chen An said with a smile: "I was planning to go shopping in Fangshi. When I passed by here, I saw a kid I knew squatting by the river by himself, so I came over to see what was going on."

"That's it..."

The old monk nodded.

Seeing that the old monk cared so much about Dabao, Chen An chatted with him.

Ask him what his relationship with Dabao is, and get to know him a little bit by the way.

After some chatting.

Chen An learned that Dabao is now adopted by the old monk.

The old monk's surname is Hu. When he was young, in order to achieve Foundation Establishment, he kept away from women and focused on cultivation.

However, after several decades of cultivation, after breaking through to the seventh level of Qi Refining, he could no longer go any further.

When he realized that his fairy road had come to an end, and he wanted to return to the ordinary life to marry a wife and have children, but he found that his body was too old and destined to have no future.

In desperation, he can only continue to live alone until the end of his life.

While fishing the day before yesterday, the old monk saw Mo Lifang cruelly pushing his son, Dabao, into the river.

The old monk, who is not surprised by such things, knows that this is a female nun who is crushed by life and wants to throw away her oil bottle and remarry.

So after Mo Lifang left in a hurry, the old monk fished out the big treasure.

Seeing that Dabao is still young and can be raised well, he thought of taking him back and raising him as a son.

Well, when I die in the future, someone will die.

After learning about this from the old monk, the guilt in Chen An's heart eased a lot, and he felt that Mo Lifang's death deserved more than justification.

He took out a few bottles of nourishing qi pills from his arms, and handed them to the old monk with a smile to make a good relationship, saying that the old monk would have fresh spirit fish to keep for him in the future.

After that, he turned around and left, and set off again to the treasure store in Fangshi.

Yangqi Pill, this is a kind of elixir for novice monks, it can help novice monks draw Qi into the body.

Giving this kind of elixir to the old monk is actually tantamount to giving it to the old monk's adopted son, the great treasure.

From then on, the cause and effect ended.

...

Fangshi, Treasure Bank.

As soon as Chen An walked in, shopkeeper Liu greeted him warmly.

"Pill Master Chen, come to sell pills again."

"No, this time I'm here to buy something."

Chen An smiled.

Shopkeeper Liu couldn't help but his eyes lit up when he heard it, and he joked with a smile all over his face: "Master Chen seems to have made a fortune in silence, and he has saved a lot of money."

"I didn't save much, just enough to live on."

Chen An kept a low profile and didn't want to make too much publicity.

Shopkeeper Liu also stopped joking, and asked, "I wonder what Alchemist Chen wants to buy?"

Chen An stepped forward and moved closer, and said in a low voice, "Shopkeeper Liu, is that copy of "Mandarin Ducks Flying Together" that I came to ask about a year ago still for sale?"

"There are some, alchemist Chen please come with me."

Shopkeeper Liu also lowered his voice.

After speaking, he took Chen An into a small compartment dedicated to storing this kind of exercise, took out the "Mandarin Ducks Flying Together" that Chen Anxin had been thinking about, and said with a wretched smile:

"Hey, Alchemist Chen, this is the "Mandarin Ducks Flying Together" you want."

"1000 low-grade spirit stones?"

"Yes."

"Shopkeeper Liu, in view of the fact that I often supply pills to Zhenbao, let me give you a discount on this "Mandarin Ducks Flying Together"."

Chen An started bargaining.

Shopkeeper Liu looked embarrassed: "Master Chen, it's not that I don't want to, I'm just an agent shopkeeper, I'm just a bookkeeper, and I have no right to make price adjustments at all."

"That's it..."

Chen An pondered for a while, then shook his head and said, "Forget it, I don't make things difficult for shopkeeper Liu, I'll go to another house to have a look."

After speaking, he turned around and left without any hesitation.

"Hey wait, Alchemist Chen wait!"

Shopkeeper Liu was in a hurry, and hurried forward to stop Chen An, and said to him with a smile: "Although I don't have the authority to adjust the price according to the regulations, as long as I keep a low profile and do it privately, it's not a big problem."

Chen An smiled and said, "Then I wonder how much discount Shopkeeper Liu can give at most?"

"It can only be 50% off at most."

"30% off."

"Pill Master Chen, you are too..."

"Then 40% off."

"30% off, just 30% off, take it!"

Shopkeeper Liu threw the "Mandarin Ducks Flying Together" to Chen An, and asked him for 700 low-grade spirit stones.

Chen An gave Shopkeeper Liu 4 middle-grade spirit stones and 300 low-grade spirit stones.

After that, he thought of his little wife at home, and asked Shopkeeper Liu:

"Shopkeeper Liu, do you have any exercises for sale that ordinary people can practice?"

"Yes, yes, there must be!"

Shopkeeper Liu became enthusiastic again.

Chen An asked further: "I don't know what exercises are there?"

"There are "Exercising Techniques" for strengthening the body, "Meditation Techniques" for calming the nerves and refreshing the mind, and "Health Preservation Techniques" for prolonging life. Currently, there are only three exercises in the store that ordinary people can practice, and the price is 20 low-grade spirit stones for a copy."

Shopkeeper Liu took out three exercises and introduced them with a smile.
