Chapter 44: Reveal 1

After leaving the medical hall, Lin Sheng was not in a hurry to return to his residence, but walked towards a pharmacy on the street.

Besides visiting Zhang Ding, he had something else to do this time.

As a town formed relying on Yangping Mountain, in Yangping Town, besides vendors selling some wild beasts, there were more pharmacies and medical halls.

After all, when entering Yangping Mountain to hunt, who can guarantee they won't get injured?

Given the level of danger in Yangping Mountain, almost every team that comes out will more or less inevitably suffer some injuries.

Besides the Hunter's Hall, there are also many foreign hunters entering the mountain. After these people are injured, they will naturally choose to seek treatment and heal their wounds in the nearest Yangping Town as soon as possible, so the number of medical halls and pharmacies in the town is quite large.

He casually found a pharmacy of considerable size on the street and stepped inside.

By the time he came out, he already had several small medicine packets and a thick book in his hand.

The medicine packets contained a few doses of tonic soup for nourishing qi, blood, tendons, and bones that he casually picked up, while the book was a herbal compendium.

It recorded some relatively common medicinal herbs and poisonous herbs, as well as their medicinal and toxic properties.

In addition, there were also some notes about pills at the back of the book, which was exactly what he needed.

After all, he still needed to figure out the pill he got from Ma Qiang, and it was also very necessary to understand the information about various medicinal and poisonous herbs to avoid suffering losses in Yangping Mountain in the future in this regard.

After purchasing some Rock Sheep meat from the street again, Lin Sheng finally returned to his residence.

In the room, two red pills the size of quail eggs were placed in front of Lin Sheng.

One was dark red, and one was crimson red.

The pill that was dark red was the reward from the Hunting Beast Hall for this mission, the blood nourishment pill.

The crimson red pill was the one obtained from Ma Qiang.

Lin Sheng first picked up the blood nourishment pill and sniffed it carefully under his nose; a faint fishy smell emanated from it, but besides that, there was no other feeling.

"Is this the blood nourishment pill?"

Playing with this pill, Lin Sheng didn't hesitate much and directly threw it into his mouth.

The price of a blood nourishment pill is around twenty taels of silver, which is not considered too precious for him; with his current wealth, he can already buy several.

Moreover, the effect of this pill is mainly aimed at Martial Artists who have not entered the Body Tempering Realm; as a Body Tempering Martial Artist, he naturally doesn't need to worry about the medicinal effect being too strong.

As the pill went down, Lin Sheng soon felt something.

He only felt a warm current in his body, making his internal qi and blood gradually become active.

Feeling the changes in his body, Lin Sheng immediately went outside the courtyard and began practicing the White Ape Leg Technique.

Whoosh... Whoosh... Whoosh...

As his legs swung, they brought up gusts of strong wind.

Until an hour had passed, Lin Sheng finally stopped his movements.

"It does have some effect."

He wiped the sweat from his forehead and muttered.

In the past, when he practiced the White Ape Leg Technique, he could continuously practice for about half an hour in one go and then needed to rest for a while; now with the medicinal power of this blood nourishment pill, he was able to persist for an hour in one go.

Moreover, it seemed his internal qi and blood had indeed slightly strengthened; of course, it wasn't obvious, after all, it was just the lowest level blood nourishment pill, and to be able to have such an effect was already quite good.

"Although the effect of one blood nourishment pill is not very obvious, if multiple blood nourishment pills are taken, the increase in qi and blood can be considered quite considerable."

Lin Sheng thought to himself, those geniuses from large forces in the County Town must definitely not lack pills; with a large amount of pill resources infused, their physique, qi and blood, and cultivation speed must definitely exceed ordinary Martial Artists by a lot.

After resting for a moment, Lin Sheng continued to Cultivate.

Until he felt the medicinal power of the blood nourishment pill in his body dissipate, he finally stopped.

Looking at the sky, it was already evening.

After a simple wash, Lin Sheng began to make a fire and cook.

His food was very simple, entirely meat, without any vegetables.

With his current financial situation, it was enough for him to spend freely on basic needs, so naturally, he didn't need to be as frugal as before.

While cooking, he began to flip through the herbal compendium.

Lotus Leaf Orchid, grows in damp mountain forests, shaped like lotus leaves, the leaves are dark blue, has a mitigating effect on mountain miasma...

Red Snake Grass, is entirely bright red, the leaves are shaped like small snakes, highly toxic...

The content recorded in the herbal compendium was quite detailed, mainly introducing related plants; each page also had corresponding illustrations, and although the drawings were quite simple, they could basically show the characteristics of each plant.

This was indeed worth the high price of two taels of silver he spent.

He quickly flipped to the last few pages of the book, which contained information about pills.

"Herb pills, beast pills, Spirit Pills... I didn't expect there to be so many categories of pills."

After a while, he put down the book in his hand, and a thoughtful expression appeared on his face.

According to what he learned from the book in his hand, pills were mainly divided into two categories.

One type was pills refined using various plant herbs as the main ingredients; this type of pill was called herb pills.

The other type was pills refined using exotic beast Materials as the main ingredients; this type was classified as beast pills.

Compared to the two refining methods, herb pills were mostly mild and balanced in medicinal properties, while beast pills had more potent medicinal properties and required a certain physical condition for the user.

In addition, beast pills also contained more pill toxins and could not be taken excessively.

Therefore, relatively speaking, the value of herb pills was slightly higher than beast pills of the same rank.

The method to distinguish between beast pills and herb pills was also very simple; the simplest way was to distinguish them by smell.

"Looking at it this way, the pill from Ma Qiang should be a beast pill."

After all, that pill had a bloody smell; it should have been refined using exotic beast blood as the main ingredient.

"As for what this pill is, Lin Sheng also had a conclusion in his mind."

"Its color is crimson red like blood, and smelling it can stimulate qi and blood. It should be the blood enhancement pill, which is one rank higher than the blood nourishment pill."

Lin Sheng flipped his wrist, and the pill appeared in his palm.

"I didn't expect this Ma Qiang to actually have a blood enhancement pill on him. It must be Ma Long's doing."

Playing with this pill, Lin Sheng was not in a hurry to take it, but instead took out a small knife and scraped off some powder from it.

Then he caught a wild dog from outside and threw it into the courtyard.

He then smeared the blood enhancement pill powder on a piece of Rock Sheep dried meat and threw it to the wild dog trembling in the corner.

The wild dog looked at the dried meat in front of it, its eyes revealing a hint of desire, but after looking at Lin Sheng in the courtyard, it shrank back.

"Are you afraid to eat it?"

Seeing the wild dog's frightened appearance, Lin Sheng grinned and wasn't in a hurry, just as the Rock Sheep meat in the pot was almost stewed.

He carried the pot back into the room and began to feast.

Seeing the hateful human who caught it leave, the wild dog shrinking in the corner revealed a hint of greed in its eyes, bit the Rock Sheep dried meat on the ground in one gulp, not even bothering to chew, it actually swallowed it directly, and then a human-like expression of enjoyment appeared on its dog face.

Soon it reacted, stood up from the ground, ran to the gate wanting to run out, but at this time the gate was tightly closed, and it could only find a corner and shrink back again.

Only its nose twitched constantly, sniffing the aroma of meat occasionally drifting from the room.
