1342 Becoming a Bionic Soldier (1/2)
Seeing that Xiangyu was getting better, Chen Xiaobei went ahead and clicked on the Red Envelope Group.
Chen Xiaobei: I want to buy Three-star Divine Medicine, a Five-colored Magnolia! I need it to save someone's life! (Urgent! Urgent! Urgent! @Shennong @Hundred-Herb God)
Hundred-Herb God: Erm… I don't have it with me…
Monkey King: F*ck you! Stop lying! You are currently taking care of the Hundred-Herb Garden! Now, when God Chen is asking you to bring him a Three-star Divine Medicine, you dare say you don't have it with you?
Hundred-Herb God: Monkey King, plese don't get angry at me… It's true that I don't have it with me!
Chen Xiaobei: Bro… It's okay… Let's not force him…
Hundred-Herb God was one of the officers in the heavenly realm. The Jade Emperor, together with the Queen Mother were under Primordial Lord of Heaven. In other words, even if he did have the Five-colored Magnolia with him, he would not sell or give it to Chen Xiaobei. Clearly, he could not afford to offend Chen XIaobei or anger Shen Gongpao. Being stuck on a fence, he chose to not side with anyone.
Monkey King: @Shennong. Come out now! I saw you reading the chat just now! Don't try to hide from us!
Shennong: Cough… Cough… I'm old… That's why my reaction is a tad bit slow… Please don't get angry at me…
Chen Xiaobei: Elder Shennong… Do you have the Five-colored Magnolia with you?
Shennong: Yes… But…
Monkey King: But what...? Just speak your mind already! Don't waste our time! Xiaobei needs it to save someone's life!
Shennong: I have it with me right now but it is extremely expensive! I'm selling it for three million merit points!
”Damn! He is clearly trying to rob all of my merit points! Not even the most cunning businessman would do something like this!” Chen Xiaobei said, clearly very shocked.
Earlier, Chen Xiaobei had already expected that Shennong would come up with a ridiculous price. Clearly, someone was trying to clean out all the merit points that Chen Xiaobei possessed.
”Luckily Acheron gave me a free antidote! If not, I would have been left penniless!”
Deep inside his heart, he was glad that someone gave him something worth a whopping three million merit points.
Monkey King: Shennong, you old man! Are you crazy?! That's just a Three-star Divine Medicine and you are selling it for three million merit points?! Why don't you go and rob a bank?! Hold on… You can't even rob that much off a bank!
At that moment, no one dared say a single word about it. On one side were Jieism's disciples and the other side were Chanism's disciples. Everyone was just minding their own business. Monkey King was the only exception in the group. With Lady Nuwo and Lord Zhunti backing him up, he could be considered as one of the bravest members in the group. No one in their right mind would criticize Shennong in front of everyone.
Shennnong: Monkey King… You misunderstood my intention… I'm not the one who set this price…
Monkey King: This is your belonging… Who else has the right to set the price for you?!
Chen Xiaobei: Bro… I think Old Shennong is telling the truth here! The total merit points that I have right now is three million! Clearly, someone has taken a peek at the merit points book before setting this price. And we all know who the person is!
Shen Gongpao: You are right! I'm the one that set the price! Are you going to say something about it?
Chen Xiaobei: It's too expensive! I'll try to figure some other ways to save my friend!
Shen Gongpao: So, you think it's expensive? Beg me then! Maybe, I'll give you a 20% discount!
Chen Xiaobei: No thanks! You can keep it for yourself!
Shen Gongpao: Aren't you going to save your friend?
Chen Xiaobei: I'll figure something out myself! I will never spend three million merit points to buy your medicine!
Shen Gongpao: There's no time for you to figure out a way to save your friend! How about… I sell it to you for two million merit points?
