Only My Way
#92 - Shows of goodwill and demonstrations
Soon after.
Along the way.
Ling Wuyuan took the lead, riding ahead to clear the path.
Behind him were several people dressed in a rather presentable manner.
Among them.
The owner of the medicinal herb shop was riding alongside, carefully examining the list of medicinal herbs that Ling Wuyuan had handed him.
Most of the medicinal herbs written on it were not particularly precious.
Frankly speaking, Ling Wuyuan didn't expect the other party to have any particularly precious medicinal herbs.
But if that were the case.
The amount of medicinal herbs required on it was quite large.
So much so that it made people think Ling Wuyuan was eating medicinal herbs as food…
Of course.
In fact, Ling Wuyuan was indeed treating medicinal herbs as food…
Several hundred pounds of medicinal herbs, after a long period of refining, could usually only produce about a hundred 【Army Pills】.
Moreover.
As his realm increased and he successfully reached the 【Qi Nourishment Realm】, Ling Wuyuan's demand for cultivation resources would naturally increase in sync.
The medicinal herbs he needed were now greater in quantity, more diverse in variety, and better in quality than before.
Therefore, there was absolutely no problem in saying that he was treating all kinds of medicinal herbs as food.
At this moment, after repeatedly estimating in his heart for a long time, the owner of the medicinal herb shop finally reported to Ling Wuyuan with a somewhat apprehensive tone:
“Sir, although we probably have about 80% of the types of these things in our medicinal herb shop, in terms of the age and quantity of the medicinal herbs… our medicinal herb shop may not be able to meet your needs. It may take time to transfer medicinal herbs from other medicinal herb shops in the surrounding area to solve the problem…”
Hearing the other party's statement.
Ling Wuyuan, who had expected this, simply said calmly:
“It doesn't matter, then transfer the medicinal herbs from other regions. Charge whatever the price should be, don't save money for me.”
“You just need to get things done as soon as possible.”
Transferring medicinal herbs from the surrounding area may sound like a simple sentence, but Ling Wuyuan was very clear that this kind of operation was definitely not an easy task in this world.
Not only would transportation problems and medicinal herb costs be fraught with difficulties.
The network of relationships alone was a problem that everyone could not bypass.
If the relationship was not in place, why would others help you?
Precious medicinal herbs were in short supply everywhere.
Therefore.
Even if you were willing to spend money, it was sometimes still difficult to buy things.
And this was also the main reason why Ling Wuyuan was now clearing the way for the convoy.
Even if he had an absolute advantage in terms of violence, he still needed this group of local snakes behind him to handle related issues for him.
And hearing that Ling Wuyuan had no dissatisfaction, the medicinal shopkeeper immediately breathed a sigh of relief. He was unwilling to offend this great god in front of him. Although he didn't know how strong Ling Wuyuan's strength was, the mere fact that he could use his eyeballs to directly catch the arrow shot by a 【Strong Viscera Realm cultivator】 was enough for him to treat Ling Wuyuan as his own father!
As for the issue of money that the other party said, he was even more sensible and repeatedly said:
“It would be good if you could understand that we need time to transfer medicinal herbs. Please don't worry about the money.”
“I can bear this batch of medicinal herbs myself, just as a thank you for saving my life…”
While speaking, although he felt a little heartache that he would lose at least half a year's profit, he still chose to try his best to please Ling Wuyuan.
He wanted to build a relationship.
However, as soon as he said this, Ling Wuyuan hadn't even reacted yet.
The other people around him took the lead and said:
“Hey~ Shopkeeper Huang, what you said is not right… Everyone has been saved by the adult, how can we let you work alone?”
“How about this, you add some extra to the amount and age of the medicinal herbs that the adult needs, and then everyone will bear all the expenses together. Be sure not to be polite with us…”
They were unwilling for the medicinal shop to please Ling Wuyuan alone.
Now that they saw an opportunity to interject, they naturally chose to show their goodwill decisively.
They didn't have the channels to buy medicinal herbs.
But they did have the money to buy medicinal herbs.
At this moment, hearing that the other party meant that they would solve the purchase channels, and then everyone would pay together, the medicinal shopkeeper felt that his credit had been diluted, but he didn't have any reasonable excuses to refuse, so he could only open his mouth and helplessly respond:
“Okay, okay.”
“However, recently, because the 【Crimson Fire Bandits】 have been more active, I think it is not as convenient as before to transfer medicinal herbs. At that time, please everyone work together…”
“No problem, no problem at all, this is all a matter of course…”
Listening to these words from the people behind him.
Ling Wuyuan was also a little unsure of what to say.
He was just a little moved by everyone's enthusiasm.
Sure enough, when your strength is strong enough, everyone is always so understanding and hospitable…
They can even reach the point of kneeling and begging you to accept many benefits.

At the same moment.
Not far from the scene of the previous incident.
Several figures riding tall horses looked at the billowing black smoke rising not far away.
“Fire?”
The expressions on their faces were more or less puzzled.
At the same time, a sense of foreboding welled up in their hearts.
Robbing carriages and the like shouldn't require fire.
Could it be that they were burning carriages for fun?
“Speed up!”
Following the leader's order.
Soon, in just a few minutes, several figures arrived at the scene on horseback.
And looking at the twisted corpses in the big pit that were gradually being burned into charcoal in the flames, they understood that the ominous feeling in their hearts had finally become a reality.
Even if they couldn't tell whether the other party was one of their own based on the appearance and clothing of the corpses.
But they could still accurately judge that the corpses in the flames were the team that came to loot, through the various traces left by the scene environment.
The reason was very simple.
The wheel marks on the ground were all moving forward, and not towards the 【Crimson Fire Bandits】's camp.
If the corpses in the pit were the people from the convoy, then things would definitely not be like this…
Who would rob things and take the goods to the enemy's base camp?
Was this to directly attack the Yellow Dragon and destroy the enemy in one battle?
The team that came to loot did not have that ability and courage at all!
Just like that, standing on the edge of the fire pit burning with raging flames.
Looking at the headless corpses in the fire pit, and even the corpses that were cut into pieces, the leader's face was extremely ugly.
‘The information is wrong, were they ambushed by local forces disguised as a convoy?’
He was a little puzzled, guessing the truth of the matter.
As for the possibility that this team was wiped out by the convoy?
He had never thought about that possibility.
They didn't have that strength.
The convoy literally didn't have that strength…
However, looking at the corpses that had been cut into pieces and then burned, he was still extremely annoyed and frightened.
He felt that the other party was probably demonstrating to the entire 【Crimson Fire Bandits】!!
Demonstrating by torturing the target!!
For robbers, this was a very common thing.
Of course, the common here refers to the robbers doing this to the target, rather than the target doing this to the robbers, that kind of operation is a bit upside down…
The other party did not expect that the reason why those corpses became like this was entirely because many passengers and armed personnel of the convoy, who had lost their relatives and friends, were venting their anger through the enemy's corpses.
The so-called demonstration?
The so-called ambush?
It can only be said that they were thinking too much…
