"Come, come... this way!"
Nan Yang pulled He Pingsheng away from the [Divinity-Pacifying Pill] display and said, "I want to buy a stalk of [God-Invoking Grass] for my son!"
"Don't underestimate this God-Invoking Grass just because it's a first-grade divine herb. It has a great use!"
"They say that after you take it, the gods above are more likely to notice you when you pray for blessings. My son might just stumble upon a great opportunity!"
"You have no idea. Almost every family prepares these things for their children!"
"If other people have it, my son can't go without... ah..."
"Even if it might not actually work!"
As Nan Yang rambled on, he led He Pingsheng to another counter.
This was not a display stand, but a sales counter.
A female Divine General stood behind the counter, with over a thousand stalks of purple divine grass on the shelves behind her.
All those stalks shimmered with an intense divine light.
He Pingsheng swept his divine sense over the herbs but found no unusual aura. He could not even sense any medicinal properties, so he asked quietly, "Does this stuff really work?"
"I don't know!" Nan Yang frowned and shook his head somewhat sadly. "Actually... I ate quite a lot of it when I was little, too. My father bought it all for me!"
"But honestly, I never felt it did any good!"
"Ah... but so what?"
"Whether it works or not, you have to buy it. Other people's children all have it, so you can't let your own child start out a cut below the rest. Whether it works isn't important. If I don't buy it for my child, then I'm the useless one..."
He Pingsheng: ...
"All right, let's get in line!"
Even buying this stuff required lining up.
