Chapter 183 Cao Family, Cao Xiong
As it turns out, even genius requires resources.
Despite years of cultivation, Tang Lingmo had very little internal poison.
As a result, he couldn't even attempt to test the pills!
So, when Su Li passed through another city, he set up a stall right there!
He greeted the passing cultivators.
"The Hundred Fragrances Rejuvenating Pill! It can completely remove residual toxins from the body and leave one with a fragrant scent (today's scent is jasmine!)"
The first three pills today are free to try. If they don't cure the erysipelas, you don't have to pay!
On the street, Su Li's stall was next to a fortune teller's stall, attracting the attention of many people.
A male cultivator holding a sword stopped there and couldn't help but speak.
"Pshaw, that's a lie! If it were really good, would it be free?"
Another cultivator nodded in agreement, finding the idea quite reasonable.
"That's right! If we're talking about clearing away the poison from pills, then we have to look to the Ancient Pill Hall's Marrow Cleansing Pill."
Unfortunately, they were not worthy of using such elixirs.
Normally, I can only rely on some cheap pills to remove some of the erysipelas.
Just then, a carriage passed by, and the woman inside was crying.
"Zhao Danian, how much suffering have I endured following you all these years? Now my father's life is hanging by a thread."
I'm just asking you to buy one, and you don't even have the ability to get the Marrow Cleansing and Spirit Purifying Pill!
You are the lord of a city, you... humph!
The woman, surnamed Zhao, clutched her handkerchief, her eyes red and swollen.
City Lord Zhao Danian wore a bitter expression and dared not refute.
"My lady, as the city lord, I should not take even a needle or thread from the people... as my salary..."
Just as the two were arguing, they suddenly heard the cries of vendors outside.
Upon hearing the words "completely remove the erysipelas from the body," Madam Zhao could no longer sit still.
He lifted the curtain and saw a lively little girl enthusiastically promoting her elixirs.
"parking!!"
Madam Zhao got out of the car and walked towards the crowd. By this time, Su Li's stall had already been surrounded by many people.
However, most of them were just there to watch the spectacle.
Occasionally, I would seek advice from female practitioners.
The questions asked also caused Su Li considerable distress.
"Is it only jasmine scented? Is there lotus scent? Ambergris scent?"
"How long will this fragrance last? It can't be too strong..."
Su Li: ....
It's all her fault for having such a deadly hand. Why did she suddenly have the idea to add some special fragrance powder when she was refining it?
Madam Zhao, with her face covered by a veil, walked up to Su Li with her maid.
"Young lady, can your pill truly completely eliminate pill poisoning?"
Su Li's eyes lit up; finally, someone was seriously asking about the elixir.
"Madam, rest assured, if my pill cannot remove the poison from the patient's body, I am willing to offer 800,000 spirit stones!"
Eight hundred thousand spirit stones!!
Everyone sighed in disbelief; 800,000 spirit stones were enough to buy a Marrow Cleansing Pill.
"Is this true? If so, I'm willing to try the pill!"
"Yes, I'd love to too, let me do it!"
In an instant, the place was filled with noise!
The lady was nearly knocked over.
Su Li quickly waved his hand to quiet everyone down, then looked at the lady.
"Madam, I will stay here for seven days, and will give you three pills each day to help remove the poison."
"May I ask if you, madam, would be the first to test this elixir?"
Madam Zhao pondered for a long time before speaking.
"Young lady, my father is a Golden Core cultivator, and he has accumulated a deep amount of internal poison."
If you could remove the erysipelas from my father's body, I would be eternally grateful.
"But... this pill of yours... won't it kill someone, will it...?"
This lady's attire was unlike that of an ordinary person. Although she did not possess strong spiritual energy, she was accompanied by servants.
Seeing the car with the City Lord's Mansion emblem in the distance, how could Su Li let her go?
Besides, with Su Li around, even if someone is on their last breath, she can bring them back to life!
Su Li patted his chest and said.
"Madam, rest assured, I am a cultivator from the Yun Dan Sect. This pill was developed by the sect and there will be absolutely no problem with it!"
As he spoke, Su Li pulled the lady aside and showered her with praise!
“This lady is truly a filial daughter. I am willing to go with her and personally help your father remove the poison!”
Madam Zhao's eyes lit up when she heard Su Li say this.
"Really, it would be best if you could come along!!"
She had heard of the Yun Dan Sect; it seemed to have indeed produced some extraordinary alchemists.
My husband also wants to buy a few Foundation Establishment Pills from the Cloud Pill Sect to help the children in our family establish their foundations.
However, she had never heard of any pills from the Cloud Pill Sect that could clear the body of pill toxins...
Never mind!!! Since it's a legitimate sect, they wouldn't harm anyone.
"Young lady, please come with me. If you can cure my father, I promise I will not let you work for nothing!"
Madam Zhao immediately kicked Zhao Danian off the carriage.
He warmly helped Su Li onto the carriage.
The cultivators who had been watching the spectacle finally realized what was happening.
"Oh my, that was actually the city lord's wife, Madam Cao..."
Then her father, isn't that Cao Xiong?
When Cao Xiong is mentioned, many people shake their heads in regret.
Cao Xiong was quite a figure in his youth.
He was known for his chivalrous deeds and helping the poor, and was often praised as a great philanthropist, Cao.
Cao Xiong had a remarkable talent for cultivation and had once been a disciple of the Qingyun Sect.
Later, he was expelled from the sect for offending the sect elders.
I've heard that his cultivation level has remained at the Golden Core stage for years, unable to advance further...
Zhao Danian only realized what was happening after watching Su Li brazenly get into the city lord's carriage and drive away.
He quickly slapped his thigh.
"Oh dear, madam, be careful, that's a scammer! There's no such thing as a free lunch!"
Soon, the carriage stopped in front of a mansion.
The Cao family was in complete chaos, and even the gatekeepers had disappeared.
Mrs. Zhao said somewhat embarrassedly.
"My father consumed too many pills in his attempt to break through to the next level! The poison from those pills has seeped deep into his bone marrow."
He's been unconscious for the past two days, and the house is in complete chaos...
Su Li expressed his understanding and followed her into the inner courtyard.
Seeing the smile on Su Li's face, Madam Zhao couldn't help but feel happy.
This girl looks gentle and kind; I'm sure she can cure her father's illness.
Before the two had even entered, they heard a woman crying.
"You old hag, you can't leave! What will I do if you leave? Waaah!"
"Father, wake up! Third Sister will definitely buy the Marrow Cleansing Pill. Please hold on!!"
Then another woman's voice rang out.
"Hmph! That good-for-nothing Cao Jia has been married into the city lord's mansion for many years, but I haven't seen her help the family at all."
Now that her father is dying, she refuses to give him money to buy a Marrow Cleansing Pill!
That's absolutely heartless!
When Madam Zhao heard the curses coming from inside, her face turned pale... and she almost fell over.
Just then, a man in his twenties rushed out angrily, and was taken aback when he saw Madam Zhao and Su Li.
He then loudly berated Madam Zhao.
"Cao Jia, how dare you come back? Where's the Marrow Cleansing Pill?"
Mrs. Zhao shook her head awkwardly.
"Little brother, listen to me!"
Upon hearing that Cao Jia couldn't produce the Marrow Cleansing Pill, the man became so angry that he immediately kicked her out.
"What the hell are you doing back here without the elixir?! Let me tell you, you're the one who killed your father! Get the hell out of here!"
"I want to see Dad one last time, but I won't allow it!!"
