Doomsday Great Rebels

Chapter 48 Elixir
Xia Mo was walking on the mountain road, Dong Wanqiu treated him as if he was close to him.

Xia Mo lightly touched Dong Wanqiu's body, Dong Wanqiu gave him a reproachful look, and immediately pulled away.

Xia Mo felt a little lost.

Not long after, the two came to Qingyun Town.The two stood beside the stone monument at the entrance of the town, when a gust of autumn wind blew, Dong Wanqiu stood facing the wind, her clothes were blown up by the wind, her smile was sweet and graceful.

"There are two pharmacies in Qingyun Town, one is Tongrentang, which specializes in general medicines; the other is Huichuntang, which specializes in medicines made from mutated animals and plants." Dong Wanqiu said to Xia Mo.

"Let's go to Tongrentang first." Dong Wanqiu said to Xia Mo.

Xia Mo nodded, tried to hold Dong Wanqiu's hand, and walked towards Tongrentang.

"We have to pretend to be a couple." Xia Mo defended himself in his heart.

To Xia Mo's surprise, Dong Wanqiu did not reject Xia Mo's move.

Tongrentang is right in front of you, Xia Mo walked in.

But what surprised Xia Mo was that Dong Wanqiu didn't go in, but broke free from Xia Mo's hand and stood at the door of Tongrentang, with a look of fear in her eyes.

Dong Wanqiu's complexion was pale, bean-sized beads of sweat oozed from her forehead, trickled down her cheeks, and fell to the ground bit by bit.

A thought flashed in Xia Mo's mind, and he walked quickly into Tongrentang.

Xia Mo suddenly realized, and saw a huge queen bee nailed to the wall of Tongrentang facing the door.

This queen bee is not much different from the queen bee that Dong Wanqiu turned into. The skin is also crusted and fluff has grown.It has a carapace of black, yellow, and brown colors, and the whole body is downy, like a monster of a giant wasp.

But its head is the face of a young woman.

"Guest officer, what business do you want to do?" A clerk from Tongrentang Pharmacy asked Xia Mo.

"How did you get this monster?" Xia Mo asked the guy at Tongrentang.

"I don't know very well about this matter. It seems that this queen bee was caught in the wild by the enshrined of Tongrentang and nailed to the wall. Its function is to prevent snakes, rats and mosquitoes from nuisance to the medicinal materials." Tongrentang The buddy said to Xia Mo.

"Do you have Yuji Pill here?" Xia Mo asked the staff at Tongrentang.

"Hey, you have come to the wrong place. We specialize in common medicinal materials here, and the medicines made from mutated animals and plants have to be bought in Huichuntang." The clerk of Tongrentang kindly reminded.

"Thank you very much." Xia Mo bowed his hands to the staff of Tong Ren Tang, and walked out of Tong Ren Tang.

Xia Mo walked to Dong Wanqiu's side, only to see that Dong Wanqiu's face was still very bad.

"What's the matter?" Xia Mo asked Dong Wanqiu, wiping the sweat off Dong Wanqiu's forehead with a tissue.

"The queen bee nailed to the wall is my senior sister Murong Yu." Dong Wanqiu's body was shaking violently.

"Really?" Xia Mo said, he deeply felt Dong Wanqiu's fear.

"I will protect you." Xia Mo said, hugged Dong Wanqiu's body, and hugged her hard.

Dong Wanqiu smiled miserably, hugged Xia Mo tightly, put her head on Xia Mo's chest, and choked up in a low voice.

"Shall we go to Huichuntang to have a look?" Xia Mo said.

"En." Dong Wanqiu nodded.

Xia Mo embraces Dong Wanqiu and walks towards Huichun Hall.

Dong Wanqiu gradually stopped trembling, and after a while, she regained her composure and pushed Xia Mo away.

After a while, the Hall of Rejuvenation arrived.

"You two honorable guests, what can I do for you?" A guy from Huichuntang came up.

"Is there any fish gill pill for sale?" Xia Mo said.

"Hey, I'm sorry, there are not many people who use this elixir, and our store doesn't supply it, so I'm sorry." The guy in Huichuntang said, with an apologetic expression on his face.

"But there may be a force." The guy in Huichun Hall said.

"Who?" Xia Mo asked.

"Zhuge Merchant, let me tell you where they live now." The guy in Huichun Hall said, and told Xia Mo where Zhuge Merchant was stationed.

"Thank you." Xia Mo took out an imperial silver coin and stuffed it into the hands of the staff of Huichun Hall.

Xia Mo and Dong Wanqiu walked towards the inn where the Zhuge Merchant was stationed, and arrived at the Zhuge Merchant's station after a while.

I saw two strong men standing at the door of the inn, looking at Xia Mo and Dong Wanqiu with vigilant eyes.

"We have booked this inn, you go elsewhere." One of the strong men said in a bad tone.

"We came here to make a deal with you," Xia Mo said.

"I don't know what kind of business it is?" The strong man continued, his tone softened.

"I don't know if you have fish gill pills. If so, I want to buy some." Xia Mo said.

"Please wait a moment, I will ask." The strong man said, turned and walked into the house.

After a while, the strong man came out and said to Xia Mo and Dong Wanqiu, "Dong Bo is here to invite you."

Xia Mo took out a gold coin from the purse and handed it to the strong man.

"This is your reward." Xia Mo said.

The strong man snorted coldly, pushed Xia Mo's hand away, and put his arms around his chest.

"Is it too little?" Xia Mo said coldly.

"The rule of our Zhuge merchants is that no outsiders' property is allowed, please don't misunderstand, and please go to see Dong Bo as soon as possible, and don't make Dong Bo wait for a long time." Another strong man stepped forward and motioned for Xia Mo and Dong Wanqiu Follow him to the inn.

Not long after, the two arrived outside Dong Bo's room.

"The guests have arrived." The strong man said respectfully.

"Then let them in." Dong Bo's lazy voice came from inside the door.

Someone had already opened the door.

Xia Mo looked into the room, and saw that the room was full of smoke and a strange smell, Dong Bo was lying comfortably on the bed, smoking a pipe, and several scantily clad beauties were serving him.

"Since you want to buy Yuji Dan, I will test you. What kind of cigarettes am I smoking? If you answer correctly, I will sell them to you." Dong Bo glanced at Xia Mo and Dong Wanqiu.

"It's blue blood grass. It's more potent than poppy, and it's not easy to be addicted to." Dong Wanqiu said.

"It can be regarded as having some good eyesight, take out the fish gill pill." Dong Bo gave orders to his servants while looking at Dong Wanqiu with naked eyes.

"How much do you want?" Dong Bo said.

"Ten." Dong Wanqiu said.

"A piece of gold crystal." Dongbo said.

"It's said that Zhuge merchants can do business, but I think it's true, it's just sitting on the ground and raising prices." Dong Wanqiu sneered.

"Let's have a good night, and I'll give you the fish gills for nothing." Dong Bo comfortably exhaled a mouthful of smoke, and sprayed it at Dong Wanqiu, only to see the smoke condensed into lines, and melted away when it touched Dong Wanqiu's face.

Xia Mo was suddenly full of loathing for Dong Bo, and couldn't help but clenched the blood wolf dagger tightly.

The atmosphere in the room suddenly became tense.

"If you don't have enough money, it doesn't matter. You use fish gill pills just to find treasure in the water. I can cooperate with you and supply you fish gill pills for free. You must also cooperate with me to hunt for treasure together. The treasures obtained are shared equally." Dong Bo suddenly sat up, looking at Dong Wanqiu with piercing eyes.

Dong Wanqiu raised her hand, a golden crystal flew towards Dong Bo, Dong Bo stretched out his hand, and grabbed the golden crystal.

"It seems that you guys want to take it all by yourself. Take your fish gill pills and see off the guests." Dong Bo said in a deep voice.
