Chapter 605: Xiao Wu
"What’s this?" Jiang Yue asked and picked the two papers.
"Agreement." He read and soon perused the entire document.
"We agree." He directly said.
"You agree? Doesn’t he need to also agree?" Alchemist Gu looked at Yu Nianzhen.
"He will also agree." Jiang Yue shrugged, handing one paper to Yu Nianzhen.
However, the swordsman didn’t need to read it to agree.
After all, he and Jiang Yue were one mind, heart, and soul.
Since Jiang Yue had already agreed, the price was definitely something they could afford.
After reading it, Yu Nianzhen nodded.
"We agree." He said.
Hearing this, Alchemist Gu was flabbergasted.
The reason he produced such an unreasonable agreement was that he didn’t want to refine the soul-cleansing pill.
After all, everyone knew who needed the soul-cleansing pill.
If Gu Cheng waded in this muddy water, wouldn’t he be causing trouble for himself?
Unfortunately, he made the wrong gamble.
Not only did the two people agree to his price, but they didn’t even take the time to consider it.
’It’s fate.’ Gu Cheng sighed.
’Although I have caused trouble for myself, I have also solved a big problem for my Border Guard faction.’
"Two nephews, do you have the spirit grasses?" The old man asked.
Hearing this, the two looked at each other, and their lips twitched.
However, they didn’t correct the old man.
"Alchemist Gu, can you give us a list of the herbs needed for the soul-cleansing pill?" Jiang Yue asked.
"You came here without knowing which herbs are needed?" Gu Cheng frowned.
However, without waiting for their reply, he wrote a list and gave it to the two.
"You can return after you get the spirit grasses and fulfil your promise." He said.
"Alright." Jiang Yue agreed, taking the list.
At the same time, Yu Nianzhen leaned over so that they could check the list together.
"Fortunately, we seem to have all the herbs." Jiang Yue chuckled and the old man looked at the two with a shocked expression.
"Most of the herbs are common but the soul-cleansing grass and the soul-fixing grass are not easy to get. Do you also have those two?" The old man asked.
"We have them." Jiang Yue declared.
At the same time, Yu Nianzhen removed the herbs from his jade box and put them in a wooden box.
"Please check them and tell us if there is anything else." He said and slid the box towards the old man.
Seeing how carelessly the black-robed young man, handled the herbs, the old man frowned.
However, he couldn’t be bothered to complain.
Rather, he began to carefully examine the herbs.
After examining each herb, he separated them into different boxes.
"There are three copies of each type of herb, and each stalk is in good condition. The herbs are enough to refine the soul-cleansing pill, but you can only get three pills." Gu Cheng said.
"Are three pills enough?" Jiang Yue frowned, but Gu Cheng waved his hand in dismissal.
"The Fang boy has been poisoned for less than half a year. Two pills are enough. The third is just a guarantee." The man said.
In fact, most alchemists wouldn’t be so generous.
For three copies of spirit grasses, they would only give one low-grade pill.
However, Gu Cheng felt a little ashamed.
After all, the price of the order was a donation of two hundred million immortal stones to the War Orphans kitty.
Considering the two didn’t negotiate the price, Gu Cheng felt he couldn’t be too harsh on them.
"Where should we go to fulfil our promise?" Yu Nianzhen asked.
"Fifth room on the seventh floor."
"Good." Yu Nianzhen said, turned around, and left with Jiang Yue.
Seeing this, Gu Cheng narrowed his eyes.
’Aren’t they worried I will cheat their spirit grasses?’ He wondered and subconsciously looked at the fresh herbs.
’Do they have a powerful background or...’
"Wait..., what are their names and their cultivation level?" Gu Cheng muttered.
A moment later, he shook his head and put away the spirit grasses.
’It’s best to be honest.’ He thought and began studying the recipe for the soul-cleansing grass.
In the meantime, Yu Nianzhen and Jiang Yue entered the fifth room on the seventh floor.
"Welcome, seniors." A childish voice reached the two people’s ears.
When they looked over, they saw a young girl staring with big, bright eyes.
"Little girl, who is in charge of this room?" Jiang Yue asked.
At the same time, he squatted to the girl’s level and gave her a piece of hard candy from Earth.
"Senior, I have never seen this candy before." The little girl excitedly said.
"Have a taste and tell me if you like it. If you like it, I will give you another piece."
Hearing she could have a second piece; the little girl unwrapped the candy and stuffed it into her mouth.
A moment later, her big eyes brightened even more.
"Senior, I like it. I like it." She exclaimed, and Jiang Yue chuckled.
"Since you like it, I will give you a few more. However, you have to promise not to eat them all at once. Only one per day."
"Just one?" The little girl frowned.
She was already thinking of eating the second one after finishing the first.
Thinking she couldn’t eat it until tomorrow, the little girl couldn’t help but be depressed.
When he saw this, Jiang Yue was soft-hearted.
"Today is a special day, and you can eat two. However, you can’t cheat when I am not around."
Hearing this, the little girl excitedly promised.
"Little girl, do you have a storage ring?"
"Xiao Wu is only five and can’t use a storage ring." The little girl said with tear-filled eyes.
"Is your name Xiao Wu?"
"I am Xiao Wu." She proudly said.
"Xiao Wu, where do you put your important things?" Jiang Yue asked.
When she heard this, the little girl smiled and pulled Jiang Yue towards a chair.
"Mama made this for Xiao Wu." She said while pointing to a pink cloth bag.
Seeing the bag, Jiang Yue smiled, removing a pack of sweets from his storage ring.
The pack had one hundred and twenty pieces of assorted candy.
"Remember, you can only eat one every day." He said as he gave the pack.
"Xiao Wu promises." The little girl solemnly nodded and took the pack.
"Thank you, big brother."
After putting the pack in her bag, she carefully closed the flap and held the bag in her small arms.
