Chapter 201: Chapter 114: Leaving the Team and Moving On, The World after the Ancient Star Road! (Seeking Monthly Tickets!)_5
There’s also fifteen of the seven-color ones!
These many Great Dao flowers! If I sell them, at least it can bring in over a million Dao Source Stones.
Even more, it could be priceless!
Just thinking about how bulky his purse would be, Chen Chang’an’s mood unconsciously turned jovial.
While continuing his work plucking herbs, he started to hum a ditty:
"Oh, there’s a lonely well in the vast sky,"
"Stars falling, reflections in the distant eyes."
"The stream and springs add color to the blossoms,"
"On the solitary isle of pine and cypress, admiring the maple."
"The Wuling vines and orchids in the lonesome valley,
"The island of drink, where love becomes a dream...."
After humming for a while, Chen Chang’an changed his tune.
This time the words slipped out, it was a theatrical tune.
"I asked the physician for a cure for lovesickness."
"The physician said:"
"Two liang of the Nine-Leaf Tower and a qian of silkworms on the winter solstice,"
"Stewed in last year’s snow, it can cure the world’s lovesickness."
"How does Nine-Leaf Tower bloom with only seven leaves, where do the silkworms come from on the winter solstice, how can snow last a year, and how can lovesickness be cured?"
"Who knows, huh??"
Chen Chang’an was about to continue singing when he suddenly stopped short.
Because he suddenly noticed that someone had quietly appeared beside him.
It seemed to be an old man, who emanated a whiff of... sleaziness?
"Whoa! Old man, who are you?"
Chen Chang’an turned his head and immediately spotted an old man with white hair and beard, looking at him with twinkling eyes.
His expression was a peculiar mix of a smile that did not reach his eyes, somewhat lecherous!
"You brat, after messing up my herb garden like this, and you are asking who I am?"
Not mentioning this earlier was fine, but as soon as Chen Chang’an did, the old man’s face turned furious and started to scold him.
"What? Old man, you’re saying this herb garden is yours?"
Upon hearing this, Chen Chang’an was instantly filled with confusion before breaking into laughter:
"I was wondering why that thief just now dared to steal so openly,"
"Turns out it’s because this herb garden belongs to you, old man."
"Don’t worry, old man, I’ve already chased off that thief."
"Stop it, boy."
In response to Chen Chang’an’s words, the old man couldn’t help but fume.
Throughout countless years, he had encountered many shameless people, but never had he met someone as audaciously cheeky as this boy.
Forget it, forget it, he would not hold a grudge.
"Boy, if you answer the question I just asked,"
"Then I won’t care about what happened to my herb garden, how does that sound?"
Chen Chang’an blinked and asked:
"Old man, do you really mean that?"
The old man: "Rascal, of course what I said is true!"
"If you don’t talk, or if what you say displeases me, I will tie you up, believe it or not!"
"A Faceless doesn’t deceive another Faceless?"
"A Faceless definitely doesn’t deceive another Faceless!"
Upon hearing the old man’s words, Chen Chang’an heaved a sigh of relief.
Originally, he thought he would have to put in a lot of effort into arguing his case, but it turned out to be quite simple.
Chen Chang’an saluted the old man,
"I am the junior Chen Chang’an, greetings, senior."
"The question just now, it was merely slip of the tongue, but since the senior has asked, this junior will answer."
"Little did one know, Xiaku is the Nine Leaf Tower, dig three feet into the ground, and cold cicadas appear...."
"Once the time of parting has passed, lovesickness can also be resolved."
"However, Xiaku is bitterly cold...last year’s snow freezes people."
"Although lovesickness can be resolved, when the harsh and bitter cold enters the throat, it feels as though one’s guts are being severed..."
"Even when you look back, a white head also remains unsolvable."
Chen Chang’an explained everything carefully.
Respecting the old and cherishing the young is a virtue of the Chinese.
Faced with an elder’s questioning, Chen Chang’an naturally did not mind discussing the matter.
Hmm, definitely not because he couldn’t beat him!
"However, how can Xiaku be bitterly cold? ... How could last year’s snow freeze people?"
Hearing Chen Chang’an’s words, the old man fell into deep thought as if he was remembering something.
He kept murmuring and chewing over the words Chen Chang’an had just said.
He seemed to have gained some insight, but also seemed somewhat perplexed.
Thinking of this, the old man jolted out of his contemplation,
and prepared to ask Chen Chang’an about the meaning behind his words again.
But, when his gaze fell on Chen Chang’an again, he exploded with rage.
"Boy, stop, stop for me!"
At this moment, Chen Chang’an was no longer in the spot he was just now.
Instead, he was holding several boxes and was once again busily digging in the herb garden!
The old man felt as if his anger would make his blood boil.
This boy, he clearly looks like a scholar, but his actions.
Verily shameless, verily shameless!
"Huh? Old man, you’ve recovered so quickly?"
After hearing the shouts, Chen Chang’an turned to look at the old man and asked in surprise.
However, his hands didn’t stop moving.
In the time it took to say a few words, another Great Dao flower had been pocketed by him.
"You...!"
Upon seeing Chen Chang’an’s blatant actions, the old man was even more infuriated, to the point of almost purposefully fluffing his beard and glaring.
Having lived for so long, the anger he felt today surpassed the sum of his entire life’s frustrations!
Forcing himself to calm down, the old man directly asked:
"To my understanding, a person could only use one Great Dao flower in his lifetime."
"You, boy, taking one is enough, why do you need to bring so many?"
"To sell for money." Chen Chang’an responded without any hesitation.
"You, an almost Great Sage level Great Scholar, who has more than one type of ’Hao Ran Heavenly Dao Protection’, you telling me you’re broke?"
Hearing this, the old man was rendered speechless.
He had figured out Chen Chang’an’s identity, and he also noticed the overwhelming righteousness emanating from Chen Chang’an’s body.
In addition to this uprightness, he saw another terrifying thing within Chen Chang’an’s body.
Void God circling the heavens!
The Void God circling the heavens was something that the hypocritical old fart from the past never understood.
But now it had appeared on this young boy.
Are you telling me that such a boy would be short of money?
You must be joking.
"Here, my wallet is all here."
"If you can find ten thousand Dao Source Stones, I’ll give you a million."
Without any further ado, Chen Chang’an threw over all the Space Rings he had on him.
The old man picked it up and checked it, his mouth twitching.
This boy was actually a pauper!
In those space rings, forget about Dao Source Stones, there was not even a single mouse!
"Alright, consider it as my debt to you, give all these to you."
"Besides, where I live there’s also some Saint Medicines planted, if you want them, just take them too."
"After all, I can’t carry these myself."
"However, I only have one requirement, don’t destroy my herb garden again."
"Also, stop calling me old man, I’m not used to it."
"My name is Shen Xuzi, just call me that."
Shen Xuzi tossed the Space Ring to Chen Chang’an and spoke.
