Legend of the Heavenly Fruit
Eps. 40 — Shop Bright Moon
One throwing knife was priced at ten silvers with a sum of over 200s. Zhou Yuan eventually bought all the throwing knives with some gold coins, which left the maidens shocked to see the wealth the young man had put out.
"Is this enough?" Zhou Yuan handed him three pieces of gold as the servant was about to add up the price.
Although the money he gave impressed more but Zhou Yuan had no alternative but to give it, the leather bag currently contained only gold coins. He had no time to wait for the waiter to sum it all up.
The servant who received it nodded while gulping. "Young master, this is more than enough."
Although in big cities, gold coins are not something that is commonly seen in the market, only those from the rich or nobles who often use it.
The girls were now looking at Zhou Yuan in a different way, they wanted to attract his attention as a man but Zhou Yuan chose to leave instead, lingering with the girls made Zhou Yuan uncomfortable, rather he did not want to get out of control.
Zhou Yuan kept the small knives he had bought earlier onto his cloak of sleeves, after which he went to another shop.
"The Moon's Bright Shop? Is this some kind of combined place between the place of treatment and the sale of pills?" Zhou Yuan frowned as he stood in front of one of the shops.
Zhou Yuan asked some local people about the resource shop, they said, The Moonlight Shop is the best pill-making shop in Hana City.
The resource pill shop that Zhou Yuan came to was a large shop that had a third floor, the store did sell pills but on the other side it was filled with sick people who wanted to seek treatment.
Zhou Yuan then entered the Moonlight Shop, just like the previous weaponry shop, when Zhou Yuan entered he was immediately greeted by one male servant.
"Are there some healing pills here, inner power pills as well as pills needed for other warriors?" Zhou Yuan asked the servant.
The waiter nodded and explained about his shop as well as who the pill maker was.
"The pills sold by us came from the renowned alchemist of the Moon Empire, Han Ou, their manufacture and quality cannot be doubted." Obviously the waiter, he experienced facing the first time buyers know his store.
Zhou Yuan stroked his chin, in fact he did not know the person called Han Ou but when he saw the pills in his shop had very good quality, this showed Han Ou's identity that was no ordinary person.
The Bright Moon Shop was the largest pill selling and medicine business in the Moon Empire, they opened many branch stores everywhere including in this Hana City.
"Han Ou was touted as the Alchemist King in the Moon Empire, Young master, has many pills he created, in addition to the healing pills for the treatment he also made resource pills for the warriors." Obviously the servant who seemed to understand in which direction Zhou Yuan thought, on the other hand he was surprised Zhou Yuan did not know a big name like Han Ou.
Zhou Yuan nodded, he took out a leather pouch and handed it all to the maid. "I want to buy some pills, can you provide them."
Zhou Yuan then gave the paper on which was a list of pills he wanted to buy.
The servant's face was immediately shocked to see the number of gold coins present in Zhou Yuan's leather pouch, he immediately called for another servant to help him look for the pills Zhou Yuan requested.
As Zhou Yuan was waiting for the pill he ordered, from the shop door, there was suddenly someone who entered in a hurry.
"Where is your physician?! Quickly get him here..." Shouted the middle-aged man frantically, he had thrown gold coins on the floor for the shopkeepers to serve him immediately.
The shopkeeper immediately understood the circumstances, not the first thing someone had to break into his shop the way the man had done unless there was an emergency. Without waiting any longer they immediately called their healer.
The middle-aged man laid the little boy on the floor just like that, his face filled with deep worry and sadness. Obviously, the little boy she was carrying was the closest person.
Zhou Yuan frowned looking at the two from afar, although the little boy carried by the man seemed to be sleeping, Zhou Yuan noticed that there was an oddity, especially the skin of the little boy that the middle-aged man carried was bluish in color.
A minute later a healer came in a hurry, he immediately approached the man and asked to explain the situation.
The middle-aged man explained that the little boy he was carrying was his grandson, he told me that yesterday afternoon, his grandson was sleepy to sleep well but until now his grandson did not wake up.
The man clearly felt that there was something strange let alone looking at his grandson's bluish skin, when he touched it, the body temperature of his grandson was already in a cold state like touching ice.
He then rushed off to the Moonlight Shop so that his grandson could be healed again.
The doctor then checked the pulse of the middle-aged granddaughter, he was a little confused by the condition of the little boy because he had only first seen such a disease.
"He was not sick, he was poisoned..." Realizing the situation, Zhou Yuan spoke up.
The middle-aged man, the healer, and others then turned their heads towards the young man, clueless about the sentence he said.
"The cold temperature released came from the poison that entered his body, the initial symptoms he would be sleepy and not wake up again before the poison was released. On the other hand when he sleeps, his body temperature will drop drastically and if left alone he can die from the cold." Clearly Zhou Yuan while stepping up to the little boy.
"Young man, do you know this poison?" The middle-aged man did not care that the person speaking was a child or a healer, what he thought now was helping his grandson.
"There is only one poison that has such a deadly effect, he is the poison of the Ice Snake."
"Ice Snake Poison? How could there be an ice snake around here, he just lives in a snowy environment?" The healer knew the ice snake that Zhou Yuan said.
"I don't really know this but that's not what we're looking for, first we have to cure it..."
When Zhou Yuan was near the boy, he placed his hand on the boy's stomach. Zhou Yuan then drained his inner energy.
"Young man, what are you doing?!" The middle-aged man was shocked by Zhou Yuan's sudden action.
Zhou Yuan did not reply but little by little the little boy's blue skin color began to fade before finally slowly returning to normal again. Zhou Yuan had neutralized the entire poison in the little boy's body with his profound energy.
