The Devil's Tribulation

Chapter 556: Medical Immortal Essay

Licheng, within the territory of the Great Zhou Kingdom in Dongzhou.

Licheng is now much more prosperous than before, because it is the main place where the Zhong family, the first family in the Great Zhou, sells wine.

Today is the Hua family's special day for selling peach blossom wine. Although there is no limit on the supply of peach blossom wine, the shop is only open until the hour of You.

Moreover, peach blossom wine is only sold on this day of every month, and at other times only girl’s wine is sold.

Outside the ten stores of the Hua family, there were already queues of people who wanted to buy wine. There were people of all levels of cultivation, from the Foundation Establishment stage to the Spirit Transformation stage, and there were even some Void Refinement cultivators queuing up, but no one dared to get close to him.

Da Zhou is the territory of the Zhong family. No outside cultivator dares to act recklessly here. Now all the cultivators in Da Zhou know that the Zhong family is not easy to mess with. Not only does they have the combined combat power, but they also have the background of the Yu Lei Sect.

In the queue, there was a strange middle-aged man with a red nose, ragged clothes and a green felt hat.

Everyone else was avoiding this Void Refining cultivator, but he seemed to not care at all and kept moving closer to them.

The Lianxu cultivator smelled the sour odor on him and said with an unhappy look on his face: "Are you looking for death? Get out of here!"

The red-nosed man didn't care when he heard that. He smiled and said, "We are all queuing up to buy wine. Your place is so big, it won't hurt to give me some space to stand, right?"

The Lianxu cultivator was furious that a little foundation-building cultivator dared to speak to him like that. If this wasn't the Zhong family's territory, he would have crushed the beggar with his pressure!

Looking at the ragged beggar, the Lianxu cultivator thought to himself, "The young master asked me to come to the human race to buy wine. It would be bad if something went wrong and attracted the attention of the great human beings. Oh!~ Forget it."

Thinking that he came here to buy wine, the Lianxu cultivator endured it for fear of delaying things.

The beggar also thought to himself: "Why did the demons come here? Are they trying to cause trouble? Or are they really here to buy wine? Forget it, this is the territory of the Beast Taming Sect, let that old bastard Qiu Wanren worry about it himself, it's more important to buy wine~"

The beggars had been waiting in line for three hours. When it was almost their turn, the clerk suddenly shouted, "Today's order is sold out, and the time is right. Please come earlier next month~"

The beggar got anxious when he heard this and shouted, "Young man, can you sell me some first? I have come all the way from Yancheng and you want me to wait for another month?"

The Lianxu cultivator also frowned and said, "Why is it closed so early? It's not even dark yet!"

When the clerk heard that someone was dissatisfied, he said with a smile: "This is the rule set by the boss. Please come early next month." Then he was about to close the shop and go home.

The Lianxu cultivator dodged and stopped the clerk from closing the door, saying, "I've waited for so long, and you're just going to close the door like this?"

The beggar also ran over and said, "That's right, it doesn't matter a little while, brother, sell me some, I'm almost drunk~"

Unexpectedly, the young man was not afraid of the Void Refining Cultivator at all, and said calmly: "Rules are rules. It's useless for you to embarrass me. If you want to buy it, you can only wait until next month. Let go! Otherwise, I will call the city guards!"

"You!" The Lianxu cultivator was furious, emitting a cold aura. The shop assistant was only a Yuanying cultivator, and was immediately frightened by this aura. He trembled and said, "How dare you do this in the city? I warn you, the Zhong family will show no mercy to cultivators like you who want to break the rules! The same goes for Lianxu cultivators!"

Lianxu cultivator's face was distorted with anger, but he remembered his master's instructions to 'not cause trouble' and suppressed his anger, snorted coldly and left.

The beggar glanced at the demon lord Lianxu who was leaving and muttered, "Are you really here to buy wine?" Then he put the matter behind him. If he couldn't buy peach wine today, he would have to drink those bland "wine" again~

So he quickly grabbed the shop assistant who was about to leave and begged, "Brother! Big brother, I beg you, please sell me one jar, just one jar, so that I can satisfy my craving first. Any amount of crystal beads is fine~"

The young man was so annoyed that he could do nothing. He whispered, "Go to the Zhong family and find a solution. We got our wine from the Zhong family and it's gone now."

The beggar spread out his hands and said, "Look at me like this, can I enter the Zhong family? The gatekeeper will have to throw me out~"

The young man laughed and said, "I'm talking to you. You have Jingzhu to buy wine, but why don't you change your clothes? Can't you go in after changing?"

Who would have thought that as soon as these words came out, the beggar said something that completely overturned the young man's worldview: "How can you use the crystal beads to buy those useless things! They are not even enough to buy wine!"

The young man was speechless, and shook off the beggar's hand, saying, "Hey, I really have nothing left. You can figure out a way yourself, and don't bother me!"

Looking at the shop assistant who was leaving, the beggar sighed and said, "Ah, I have to wait another month! It feels like a year... Hmm? The smell of wine? It smells so good~~ Where does the smell of wine come from? It's not peach blossom wine!"

The beggar took a deep breath and said with an intoxicated look on his face: "How can there be such a sweet and mellow smell of sin? ! ! Where is it? ! ! This!"

The beggar disappeared in a flash, and soon appeared outside a small pavilion outside the city. However, when he saw the people sitting in the pavilion, the beggar paused and thought to himself, "Trouble is really here! It seems that there is no way to avoid it! Really!!"

The beggar wanted to turn around and leave, but he sniffed again and couldn't help but say, "How can there be such a fragrant wine~~ How can I be willing to leave without trying a sip?"

After struggling for a while, the beggar couldn't resist the temptation of the wine, and walked over with a smile, shouting as he walked: "It turns out to be Brother Qiu~ How can it be such a coincidence?"

Qiu Wanren sneered, "It's quite a coincidence. I've been running back and forth to more than a dozen cities, and it's such a coincidence that I meet the 'Medical Immortal' here~"

Medical Immortal? The person being called was naturally this middle-aged man dressed like a beggar. The beggar who was called the Medical Immortal looked unhappy. He sat down in front of Qiu Wanren and said, "Don't call me that. I haven't practiced medicine for many years. Don't you know, Brother Qiu?"

Qiu Xiaotian said calmly, "Yeah, three thousand years or five thousand years? I forgot, but Brother Fan's medical skills haven't fallen behind, right?"

The beggar snorted coldly and said, "I knew you had no good intentions when you came to me! I can tell your fortune, but I can't treat you!"

The beggar raised his butt and turned around and walked away.

Qiu Wanren was not in a hurry. He picked up the wine pot and poured the wine. He smelled the aroma of the wine and said with an intoxicated look on his face, "Oh, what a pity. I spent so much effort to get this pot of good wine. I wanted to drink it with Brother Fan Wen, but it's a pity, a pity... Now I can only drink it alone~"

Fan Wen paused as he was leaving, pulled down his felt hat and bit it between his teeth, trying hard to resist the urge to say, "I swore that I would never again practice medicine and save lives! Even if you bring out the best wine in the world, I will not break my oath!!"

After saying this, Fan Wen walked away with a thump. Qiu Wanren sighed and said, "That's such a pity. This is 'Qinglingzui', and the person who brewed this wine may die soon. This pot may not be the best wine in the world, but it may be the last pot of 'Qinglingzui'~"

"What?! Old man, put down your wine glass! We can discuss everything!" Fan Wen hurried back to the pavilion, snatched Qiu Wanren's cup, and drank it in one gulp.

Fan Wen, nicknamed "Medical Immortal", was at the middle stage of the fusion realm. Due to some reasons, he had not used medical skills to save people since 5,000 years ago. As for why, only he knew.
