A carefree soldier king in the city

Chapter 263 Good Treasure

After enjoying such a lavish feast, everyone left, and soon only Ginseng King and Chao Bufan remained.

The Ginseng King said, "This time, thanks to you, young man, for taking away that murder weapon, otherwise, I don't know how many more people in my village would have suffered. To express my gratitude, please feel free to ask if there is anything you need help with, and I will do my best to help."

Chao Bufan smiled and said, "It was nothing! Senior Ginseng King, there's no need for you to be so polite. However, I still have some doubts in my mind, and I hope Senior Ginseng King can answer them."

King Shen smiled and said, "Please speak, young man!"

Chao Bufan pondered for a moment and then asked, "Senior Ginseng King, have any outsiders ever come into your home?"

“No, none of you humans have ever entered before. You are the first. As for us, apart from Yao Yao and I occasionally going down the mountain to gather herbs, we have never left. Brother, now that the demon realm has been destroyed, I think the passage from the human realm to here will soon be closed.”

Chao Bufan nodded, but then suddenly jumped in fright and said, "Senior, then this junior will leave now."

King Shen laughed and said, "No rush, no rush. There's still half an incense stick's time before the passage closes. Young man, please come with me. I'll take you somewhere."

Chao Bufan hesitated for a moment, then nodded and said "Mm".

Inside the Ginseng King's alchemy room, a strong, pungent medicinal smell permeated the entire room. In the center of the room was an octagonal furnace in the process of refining medicine, and on the walls were more than a dozen gourd-shaped bottles of different colors.

Chao Bufan was startled and thought he had arrived at the legendary Tushita Palace of Laozi!

"Ever since people entered the village, they have been frequently ill due to the influence of demonic energy. That's why I refined these pills. Young man, these pills may seem ordinary to us, but to you humans, they are invaluable elixirs. Taking one will make you immune to all poisons."

However, what Chao Bufan valued was not these pills, but this ten-thousand-year-old ginseng. Eating it would make one immune to all poisons and prolong life. However, Chao Bufan couldn't bring himself to do it.

"I have been refining medicine for ten thousand years, and these are the only pills I have ever made. Young man, you are our savior. You may take any of these pills as a token of our gratitude for saving your life."

Chao Bufan was overjoyed and asked, "Senior, could you please explain to me what kind of pills are in these bottles?"

"This contains 'Resurrection Pills,' this contains 'Antidote Pills,' this contains 'Power Pills' to enhance physical strength, and this contains 'Great Tonic Pills'..."

The Ginseng King rattled off all the types and names of the pills present, leaving Chao Bufan both terrified and overjoyed.

This kind of luck is truly unstoppable.

"Senior, can I really take it as I please?"

"Please feel free to take whatever you like, sir."

Chao Bufan hesitated for a moment, then said, "Then thank you very much, Senior Ginseng King!"

Without any hesitation, he took all the pills and put them into his pouch, chuckling, "Since Senior Ginseng King is a master alchemist, he must be able to refine these pills as well. Then this junior will not stand on ceremony. Thank you!"

The Ginseng King laughed and said, "Young man, take it. I can indeed refine more. Young man, I think it's about time. It's time to send you down the mountain."

Chao Bufan originally had many questions to ask, but after thinking about it, he decided to let it go.

The King of Ginseng personally escorted Chao Bufan to the foot of the mountain, to the same lakeside.

"Young man, I have a favor to ask, and I hope you will grant it."

Chao Bufan understood and said, "Senior King Ginseng, please rest assured. I will not mention a word about your demon village after I leave here. I will forget everything."

"That's good."

As he spoke, the Ginseng King plucked a long, white beard hair from his own body. The hair hair immediately transformed into a ginseng root. This ginseng root was a full meter long and thicker than a child's wrist.

"Young man, I'll give you something else as a gift. Taking it will cure all diseases."

"Senior, this... this is too much! You have given me so many benefits, I am already deeply honored."

As he spoke, Chao Bufan accepted the gift without ceremony, chuckled, and said, "Senior, whether you give one or two, it's all the same. Why not give me a few more?"

Without waiting for the Ginseng King's reaction, Chao Bufan plucked more than a dozen of the Ginseng King's whiskers in a few swift movements. The Ginseng King grimaced in pain, howling and crying out in agony.

"Hehe, senior, thank you very much!"

King Shen shook his head and gave a wry smile, saying, "Young man, I have other important matters to attend to, so I won't see you off."

As he spoke, he vanished in a blur.

Chao Bufan chuckled, in high spirits, and said, "Great, great! This is truly a windfall!"

Inside his body, the old man chuckled and said, "Boy, you should have kept him too."

"How can that be? It would be too heartless of me to keep him here too. He has given me so many benefits, I can't do that. Now I don't have to worry about my cultivation passing through the Yellow Realm and suffering the Heavenly Tribulation."

"If the gods are all dead, then what heavenly tribulation is there to speak of?"

"Now I have a weapon that suits me, and all kinds of elixirs. From now on, I will no longer have to fear evil."

"That's not necessarily true, kid. Don't get too cocky yet. Let's talk after you defeat my senior brother!"

"kindness."

Jinqiao Villa, 4 PM.

Baihe and the others were meditating and cultivating when Chao Bufan entered and clapped his hands, saying in a high-profile manner, "Everyone, I'm back."

Everyone took a deep breath and calmed themselves. Once they finished, Qianqian asked happily, "Bufan, are you alright?"

Chao Bufan nodded and smiled, saying, "It's all over now. Come here, everyone, I have something for you."

Fangfang asked excitedly, "Extraordinary, what is it?"

Chao Bufan brushed his hair back with his hand and laughed, "I'm so damn lucky today! I stumbled upon a cave by accident. Guess what I found in this cave?"

Everyone looked puzzled. Huang Mengting spoke up, "Could there be gold and silver jewelry inside?"

Chao Bufan shook his head and smiled, saying, "No."

Qianqian asked, "Martial arts manual?"

Chao Bufan shook his head again and said, "No, keep guessing."

Li Wei said, "Bufan, stop keeping us in suspense and just tell us!"

Chao Bufan chuckled and said, "Alright, then I won't play games with you anymore. I've found so many amazing treasures in this cave, treasures you've never seen before."
