Chapter 106: Herb Essence
Chapter 106: Herb Essence
Jiang Ning headed straight towards Wan Hua Tower from the martial arts academy.
His purpose for visiting Wan Hua Tower was simple.
Because he had consumed all the wild ginseng.
As his strength increased, his consumption of wild ginseng had also grown significantly.
The previous batch of wild ginseng had been exhausted after more than ten days of use.
Now, he needed to find suitable medicinal supplements.
Naturally, he was headed to Wan Hua Tower.
After all, he had a guest token for Wan Hua Tower, given to him by Shen Congyun.
With the guest token, he was entitled to have a maid inform Lin Qingyi of his arrival.
Additionally, the token allowed him to enjoy discounts when purchasing items at Wan Hua Tower.
Therefore, Wan Hua Tower was the natural choice for his destination.
Although the wild ginseng sold by Zhou Xing was reasonably priced and offered good value, Jiang Ning understood that there was no such thing as a free lunch.
Accepting favors meant incurring debts that would need to be repaid in the future.
Moreover, this time, he wasn't buying a small quantity like before—ten or eight roots.
For those amounts, Zhou Xing could afford to sell them at cost, almost giving them away.
However, this time, you have a larger demand.
sweetly) "Of course, but this time, you're buying in bulk. Even if you don't feel awkward asking, Zhou Xing might not agree to sell at that price. After all, his pharmacy needs to make a profit."
Jiang Ning nodded in understanding.
Soon after, he arrived at Wan Hua Tower.
As soon as he stepped through the doors, a maid in a green gown approached him.
"Greetings, Jiang Gongzi!" The maid, named Little Green, gracefully bowed before Jiang Ning and said, "May I ask if you're here to see Lin Zhuboss today?"
Jiang Ning shook his head. "I'm here to buy some medicinal supplements."
"I understand, please follow me, sir," Little Green replied politely.
Jiang Ning followed her lead and soon found himself in a corner of the tower.
"Sir, this is the area for medicinal supplements. Would you like to browse on your own or have me introduce some options?" Little Green asked gently.
Jiang Ning replied, "Please recommend a few supplements with good value and effectiveness comparable to ten years' worth of wild ginseng. The key is to find something with excellent value."
Little Green listened attentively and nodded obediently.
"I understand, sir. Please follow me."
They walked a few steps.
Little Green stopped in front of a counter and pointed to a small white jade vial as thick as a thumb in front of her. "Sir, this is the herb essence refined by Medicine King Valley."
"Its effectiveness is similar to ten years' worth of wild ginseng, but the effects are much stronger!"
"One vial of this herb essence has an effect equivalent to twenty years' worth of wild ginseng."
"Compared to wild ginseng, the effects have been balanced and made more absorbable by Medicine King Valley's pharmacists. Plus, it's not expensive; each vial costs only thirty taels of silver."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Ning's heart stirred with interest.
Balanced and easily absorbable!
This was a crucial point for him.
As his physique improved, he could feel that the supporting effects of wild ginseng on his body were diminishing. No matter if he consumed half a root or a whole root at once, the effects were similar due to his body's limited absorption capacity.
However, with his growing physique, it was like increasing the container's capacity.
The same medicinal effect that had been potent and powerful for his previously weak body now seemed milder and weaker.
It was like pouring water into a wooden bucket; it would fill up in just a short while.
But if you poured it into a water vat, it would take several hours.
This is the greatest difference between the two.
Then, under Xiao Lu's guidance, Jiang Ning examined a few other medicinal herbs.
After comparing them, Jiang Ning still chose the first one Xiao Lu had recommended, the Herb Essence.
After Jiang Ning made his selection, Xiao Lu bowed slightly, "Young Master Jiang, I don't know how many bottles you wish to purchase. I'll go get them right away."
Jiang Ning said, "No rush! I want to try it first."
"Alright!" Xiao Lu nodded.
She then squatted down, her long skirt spreading out on the ground like a lotus leaf basking in the sun.
She opened a wooden cabinet below and took out a bottle of Herb Essence.
After standing up, she handed it to Jiang Ning, "Young Master, try this. It's said to taste good as well."
Jiang Ning nodded and took the thumb-sized white jade bottle from Xiao Lu.
Then, he opened the bottle, tilted his head slightly, and poured the liquid into his mouth.
Instantly, a small clump of emerald green liquid flowed into his mouth.
As the liquid entered his mouth, Jiang Ning immediately felt a surge of refreshing coolness rushing towards his crown, causing his mind to tremble, and his thoughts became exceptionally clear.
It was as if he had just drunk a mouthful of mint water.
Then, the liquid flowed down his throat and into his stomach.
Jiang Ning suddenly felt a penetrating chill, and the heat throughout his body dissipated instantly.
His body temperature seemed to drop by a few degrees.
He couldn't help but close his eyes slightly, merely sensing the changes in his body.
He would decide whether to purchase Herb Essence as his primary supplement based on the changes in his body.
Meanwhile, at the Wan Hua Tower's attic.
A maid dressed in a pink gown approached and reported Jiang Ning's arrival.
Lin Qingyi immediately sat up from the soft couch.
"This little guy actually came to Wan Hua Tower today. It's a good opportunity for me to take a look and see what level he has reached in Skin Refinement," she murmured to herself, a hint of excitement rising on her face.
Then, she continued, "Before, this little guy went out of the city alone and actually counter-killed Hong Chengtao, a rather powerful Ninth Rank Warrior."
At this point, Lin Qingyi's expression filled with doubt, "Could it be that Shen Congyun secretly left him a defensive treasure before leaving?"
After a moment.
Tap, tap, tap—
Lin Qingyi heard light footsteps and turned the corner to see Jiang Ning's slightly closed eyes.
When she saw Jiang Ning, Lin Qingyi's gaze naturally focused, and she was slightly surprised.
This young man seemed to have changed again.
His Qi and Blood were evidently much stronger than the last time she saw him, and she could sense the vigorous Qi and Blood power within him.
No wonder he's so young!
His Qi and Blood are indeed vigorous!
His physical strength must be excellent!
At this moment, even with his eyes closed, Jiang Ning sensed a gaze that made him feel slightly pressured. This was the warning from his powerful five senses.
Then, he suddenly opened his eyes.
He saw Lin Qingyi in a light blue gown standing a few yards away.
"Sister Lin!" Jiang Ning exclaimed.
Lin Qingyi smiled, "Little brother, why are you here to see me today?"
Jiang Ning showed her the empty bottle that had previously held the Herb Essence.
"Sister Lin, I came to Wan Hua Tower to buy some supplements to aid my martial arts training."
"I see!" Lin Qingyi smiled and nodded, walking towards Jiang Ning.
At the same time, the maid who had attended to Jiang Ning heard his address of Lin Qingyi and felt a sense of respect.
Being able to eat soft rice from Lin Qingyi, he must have some skills!
His body must be amazing!
