Chen Ning entered the acupuncture room and closed the door.
In the acupuncture bed, the old patient was leaning against the wall. When he saw Chen Ning come in, his face turned slightly, then he stood up with difficulty and bowed deeply to Chen Ning: "Junior Tu Ao has met the senior."
"You are a bit discerning. Let me tell you, even if a dignified foundation-building cultivator is seriously injured, he would not go to such a small medical clinic in a corner to seek medical treatment, right?"
Chen Ning looked at Tu Ao calmly and said.
"Back to seniors, our original intention was to go to Xiaoyao Island to contact the alchemist's intermediary, but I have developed a hidden disease and cannot move freely for at least a week. Through a friend in Jincheng, I learned that this medical center has cured terminal illnesses, so I came here to try it. Take a chance.”
Tu Ao was very well-behaved, and whenever Chen Ning asked him casually, he would answer straightforwardly.
These words seemed to have been rehearsed in his mind countless times, so he answered them very calmly.
Chen Ning nodded.
This old guy is a smart man. Judging from his reaction, although he had made plans in advance, he didn't lie.
"Which aristocratic family do you belong to? If you can reach the foundation building stage, you must not be an unknown person."
Chen Ning continued to ask.
"This... I am the patriarch of a small family. I am the kind of person who was caught in the cracks by the Cultivator Sect. We really live in the cracks. And I was injured by the enemy's plot a year ago. At present, only the family is left. There are less than ten people left.”
Tu Ao talked about his family's power with obvious bitterness.
Originally, a cultivator in the foundation building stage would try his best to win over any force, but after all, he is also the patriarch of the inheritance of the surname. If he gives up the family, then their family will have to cut off the inheritance from him, which is shameful. It is a huge shame for our ancestors to have no shame in seeing our martyrs.
Caught between forces!
Chen Ning has known about such existence for a long time.
This is really a very difficult existence, neither up nor down, and is often bullied or even annexed by some larger forces.
The better ones are considered to be recruited, while the worst ones will be directly branded as slaves and become the slave cannon fodder of this force.
This mark is not on the surface of the body, but a mark planted deep in the soul. As long as the cultivator reaches a certain level, a person who is willing to open his soul can be enslaved.
Knowing the type of power the other party had, Chen Ning did not continue to ask this question. His mind started to spin quickly, and then he asked: "You said it was someone from Jincheng who told you about this medical center? Who is it?"
Chen Ning almost forgot about this. If the other party just went to Xiaoyao Island, there would be no problem. After all, the cultivator world had spread, and it was normal for cultivators to appear here.
But after getting news from the medical center, we need to pay attention to this.
The first thing Chen Ning thought of was Zhao Haishan and his grandson.
But on second thought, probably not.
The grandfather and grandson have always had a good relationship with Chen Ning, and their character is absolutely trustworthy. It is impossible to rashly reveal any information.
Last time, he said that someone asked for him, but in the end he asked for his opinion first. After being rejected, no one came to him.
"The Mo family in Jincheng is a cooperative family of our Tu family. It is usually contacted by Tu Ye. It should be the Mo family who told him. By the way, Tu Ye is the one who died suddenly by you... yourself before. He is my follower."
Tu Ao obviously meant to talk about the person killed by Chen Ning, but when he came to his mouth, he quickly changed it to his own sudden death.
This reaction and cautious look made Chen Ning smile slightly.
It was him who killed him, and he had nothing to worry about.
But Chen Ning soon raised his eyebrows, Mo family?
Jincheng couldn't find anyone named Mo who could be called a family, so it must be Mo Yue's Mo family.
That girl is still working in Shuicheng's urban security department and is also a frequent visitor to Yiyi Restaurant. However, she is still sensible and will never cause trouble to Chen Ning.
If the Mo family knew about the medical center... it was probably from Zhao Haishan.
He knew that the Mo family had a good relationship with Zhao Haishan.
Chen Ning shook his head slightly. There was no need to pursue this matter. He was sure that even if he asked Haishan to leak it to the Mo family, he would definitely not want the Mo family to cause trouble for him.
So Chen Ning directly exposed this issue.
"Come to Xiaoyao Island to ask for elixirs. What materials have you prepared as payment? What elixirs do you want to ask for?"
Chen Ning directly changed the topic and asked.
Tu Ao's expression changed, and he subconsciously thought that Chen Ning was eyeing his pill-seeking materials.
It is too common for cultivators to spend more time cultivating supplies.
"Senior, I, I just prepared some medicinal materials and want to exchange them for a healing pill."
Suddenly his heart trembled and he said cautiously.
In fact, he still doesn't know who Chen Ning is or how powerful he is.
But he was certain that Chen Ning was stronger than him. After all, he killed his followers from a distance. This was a fact that he had witnessed with his own eyes.
"Your veins are broken and your Dantian is blocked by bruises. Even if the alchemy master's elixir is powerful, an ordinary healing elixir can only restore 30%."
Chen Ning could see Tu Ye's worry and also saw that he was hiding something this time.
It's understandable when you think about it. After all, his injury and life are at stake, and he doesn't have any supplies, so he can't be stupid and tell the truth.
"Senior, have you seen my injury?"
Tu Ao was immediately stunned.
Although cultivators can sense the aura status of others, it is impossible to detect the condition of the other person's body without contact.
The young senior in front of him had never been in contact with him before, but he directly explained his injuries clearly!
"This is not important. What is important is the second half of my sentence. If you only prepare one or even two pills, you will not be cured at all." Chen Ning said.
