Black Suitcase, Red Banknotes, and... Blood Qi Pills!

After returning to Jiangnan University Town, Song Shuhang did not immediately look for Zhao Yaya, but instead went to the five-story building that the Medicine Master had bought.

He was still carrying the black briefcase belonging to the Altar Master, which likely contained the four rare Chinese medicinal herbs the Altar Master had purchased. If Zhao Yaya discovered these herbs in the briefcase, Song Shuhang would be in deep trouble... no, he wouldn't be able to clear his name even if he jumped into the Yellow River Pacific Ocean.

Needless to say, Zhao Yaya will definitely call Mom Song, and then Mom Song will fly to Jiangnan University Town tomorrow.

Moreover, who knows what other terrifying or misleading things might be in the Altar Master's briefcase?

How can I see Zhao Yaya if I don't deal with this suitcase first?

Having the key, Shuhang went up to the third floor after opening the door. There, he found the Medicine Master squatting in a corner, scrolling through his phone, but he didn't see Jiang Ziyan.

"Senior, are you busy?" Shuhang the Medicine Master and asked.

Since arriving in the Jiangnan University District, the Medicine Master has been busy improving the Body Tempering Liquid; he's never been idle. It's rare to see him resting today.

"Oh, Shuhang's back." The Medicine Master didn't even look up, his fingers flying across the screen.

"What are we playing?" Shuhang leaned over to take a look.

Then, he felt completely terrible.

The Medicine Master was also stealing vegetables from other people's farms. On his list of friends who stole vegetables, Shuhang could also see familiar figures from the "Nine Provinces Number One Group," including True Lord Yellow Mountain, Northern River's Loose Cultivator Skylark, Mysterious Maiden Sect Numen Yun Quezi, and Wandering Monk Profound Principle. They were all well-known seniors in the group.

In addition, there are IDs for figures from the Cultivator World, such as the Three Seas and Five Islands Master, the Second Cave Master of Yanglong Cave, and the Vice Sect Master of the Seven Star Fist Sect.

I mean... are all the senior cultivators in the Cultivator World just bored out of their minds lately? So many people are wasting their time on this farm-stealing game?

Your disciples will cry, you know!

Even your sect leader would cry!

"Done! That guy Northern River even made an auto-harvest program, but what good is it? I set an alarm long ago and stole all his crops in no time. How naive! How can an auto-harvest program's speed compare to my hand speed!" The Medicine Master said smugly to Song Shuhang.

Senior... I'd say your typing speed would be great if you practiced it more!

"And Shuhang, I'm not trying to criticize you, but don't be a money-grubber who only knows how to hoard gold coins. When you have more money, upgrade your land level so that the vegetables you grow will mature faster. Sharpening your axe won't delay your woodcutting!" the Medicine Master said earnestly to Song Shuhang.

"..." Song Shuhang didn't know what expression to use to respond to his senior.

"By the way, what did you need me for?" the Medicine Master finally got back to the point.

Song Shuhang nodded silently, placed the black briefcase on the coffee table, and said, "I would like to ask you to check if there are any traps or anything like that inside this briefcase. I obtained this briefcase from the Altar Master Claw-Mark Beast Cards after I killed him. He was an evil Ghost Cultivator, so I dare not open this briefcase lightly."

"It's good that you thought of that." The Medicine Master nodded. Bold and meticulous, Song Shuhang had many good qualities. In terms of personality, Shuhang was very suitable for the profession of cultivator. The only regret was that he was a little older and had lost the Innate True Qi he brought from his mother's womb.

If only he could have come into contact with the Cultivator Realm sooner... Unfortunately, there are no "ifs" in this world.

The Medicine Master took the black briefcase and lightly pressed his right palm against it.

"There was indeed some tampering, but such a trivial trick is no match for me." He chuckled, his right palm pulsating with inner energy.

Clap clap clap!

The sound of shattering glass came from the black box, and faintly, a mournful ghostly scream could be heard...

"Alright, you can open it now." The Medicine Master handed the box back to Shuhang.

Shuhang reached out and opened the black briefcase.

What came into view were neat stacks of red banknotes, seven stacks in total, each containing 100,000. There was also a stack that had been broken into nine smaller stacks and some loose change, which was probably the amount the Altar Master had recently spent.

The total amounted to approximately 800,000 yuan in red banknotes. 800,000 yuan might just be a number in a bank, but when stacked in cash in front of you, it still has a considerable visual impact.

When Song Shuhang saw the pile of red bills, he felt a pang of disappointment.

He assumed that someone of his status as the Altar Master would have some valuable items from the Cultivator World in his suitcase. But instead, it was just a pile of banknotes...

The higher the expectations, the greater the disappointment.

Song Shuhang took a breath. Okay, red bills it is. He was short of money recently. He planned to find a well-equipped gym nearby and buy all sorts of fitness equipment. In addition, to ensure his Blood Qi were sufficient, he also needed to maintain a high-quality diet.

Thinking about it that way, 800,000 doesn't seem so bad. It's like in a game: even if you don't get good equipment from killing a boss that's a level above you, you'll definitely get plenty of gold.

The Medicine Master chuckled softly, offering a gentle reminder: "Young friend, don't let this worldly money blind you. This little bit of money will be plentiful once you successfully establish your foundation. This money is merely a disguise; the real treasure lies beneath it, in a hidden compartment of the box."

"A hidden compartment?" Song Shuhang quickly emptied all the money and sure enough, he found a partition at the bottom of the suitcase, which was easy to miss if you didn't look carefully.

Song Shuhang was immediately overjoyed!

He reached out and lifted the shelf, revealing many small bottles, about the size of chewing gum bottles. There were fourteen small bottles in total, in red and blue. There was also a metal box about the size of an A5 book.

He first took out the blue bottle and asked, "Senior, has this bottle been tampered with?"

"Don't worry, I've cleaned up all the petty tricks and tampering in the box." The Medicine Master tossed his head stylishly, and his thick, spiky braids and various cute decorations on them collided, making a crisp sound.

What a ridiculous hairstyle!

Song Shuhang tightened his face to avoid laughing out loud in front of the Medicine Master —who might really like this hairstyle? What if he made fun of it and the Medicine Master got angry?

There were more blue bottles, twelve in total. He opened a bottle and looked inside.

The bottle contained a dark, viscous liquid, accompanied by a foul odor. "Body Tempering Liquid?!"

The color and the smell—it's definitely Body Tempering Liquid!

The Medicine Master sniffed and replied, "That's right, and it's the unsimplified Body Tempering Liquid, the quality is decent. Once you've cultivated for a full month and your physical attributes have improved sufficiently, you can take this older version of the Body Tempering Liquid. It's much more potent; one sip is equivalent to three sips of your current Simplified Body Tempering Liquid."

"You've come at just the right time! Senior Northern River once reminded me that even if all the medicinal herbs Soft Feather gave me were refined into Body Tempering Liquid, it might not be enough for my Foundation Establishment. Now, with this batch of Body Tempering Liquid, it should be enough for me until I complete Foundation Establishment, right?" Shuhang said with a smile.

"That's enough, there might even be some left over," the Medicine Master replied.

There's still some left? That's great news.

Then Shuhang opened a red bottle.

The red bottle contained eleven tiny pills. Upon opening, a fragrant aroma of medicine wafted out. Another red bottle contained fifteen pills.

"Senior, what kind of pill is this?" Song Shuhang asked.

The Medicine Master sniffed the air, then, with a strange expression, replied, "The Blood Qi Pill are all of acceptable quality!"
