After that, he lowered his head and looked at the wound on his right wrist. His curiosity towards Xia Li grew.

The woman who had been forced to jump into the deep pond by a tyrant was not dead, and she also knew medical skills. In her hands, there was a prescription that was rarely seen, even by him.

All of these were like an unsolvable mystery that attracted Sun Chun to continue exploring.

The afternoon sunlight was always warm and cheerful, hitting Xia Li's body straight away, and also caused the medicinal herbs in her arms to wilt a little.

Xia Li did not dare delay any longer, following the path he took previously to get to the town, he turned into the forest beside the small path, and used his right thumb to mark the heart-shaped pendant on his neck, and entered into the space.

She thought back to what Sun Chun had said, and still insisted on the principle that things were rarer than they were. Taking out four painkillers, she left the space and increased her pace, walking towards the town.

In less than half an incense's time, Xia Li appeared at the medicine store's entrance. Ding Liang immediately welcomed him with a smile.

”Miss Xia Li, I have been looking forward to seeing you here. Quickly, come in!”

Ding Liang said as he called for the assistant in the medicine store to heat up Xia Li's tea.

Xia Li was hungry and thirsty at the same time, she placed the herbs in her bosom on the table, took the tea offered by the shop assistant and drank it all in one gulp while holding the teacup. Her gaze was glued to the plate of pastries on the table, unable to move away.

Seeing that, Ding Liang laughed: ”Miss, you must be hungry, please enjoy your meal, it's not enough, I will ask the shop assistant to buy more.”

”No need, I only need to eat two pieces, thank you Grand Master Ding.”

Xia Li picked up a piece of cake and ate it, while waving at Ding Liang.

After thinking for a moment, she asked again, ”Grand Master Ding, how's the sales of the painkillers? Does anyone buy it? ”

”Miss Xia Li, please follow me.”

Ding Liang said as he brought Xia Li to the resting lounge behind the pharmacy.

He took out a red box, took out a key from his pocket and opened the box. Inside was a layer of golden silk, and inside was a gold ingot.
