Chapter 562
"Don't worry, don't worry," Zhang Xiaohua smiled and waved his hand, "Senior Bai and the other senior brothers are here to help, how can I not be at ease?
Moreover, I have confidence in the quality of our Tian Mu Peak's disciples. Oh, right, there's also Head Master Chen and Wu Dalang. Who would be looking for trouble here? "
"Alright, since that's the case, the disciples have finished handing over their bets. Junior Brother, please accept these records."
As he spoke, Bai Huan handed over the records in his hands and the others' hands to Zhang Xiaohua.
Zhang Xiaohua took it with a smile and put it in his arms, saying, "It's all in the past, why bother?"
That's right, with the jade boxes piled up like a small mountain in front of him, who would care about what was written in the account book?
If it wasn't too eye-catching, Zhang Xiaohua almost wanted to tear the records into pieces and throw them into the air, letting them dance like snowflakes to show his joy.
Chen Fengxiao saw that Zhang Xiaohua wasn't as ecstatic as he imagined, and his heart jumped. Although Zhang Xiaohua had said earlier that he didn't care about the position of Head Master of Tian Mu Peak, he couldn't let his guard down. He turned to Wu Zhouxu, who was also deep in thought, and said, "Dalang, I think you should also urge the Vajras to hand over their bets?
Quickly hand over the pills worth 605 taels of gold. "
At the mention of the word "gold", Wu Zhouxu's heart ached for no reason, and he said awkwardly, "This is not a small number. Although they also have extra pills, it may be beyond their ability to take out so much at once. They still have to rely on me to support them …"
Zhang Xiaohua heard Wu Zhouxu's words and naturally knew what he meant. He said, "Don't worry, Wu Dalang. If there aren't enough pills, can't we use herbs to replace them?"
Wu Zhouxu shook his head, "Junior Brother Ren just came to Tian Mu Peak and doesn't know much about the market. Herbs aren't popular. Even if they're old, they can't compare to pills. The Ten Vajras in my hands are all masters of stockpiling pills, where would they keep any herbs?
It's impossible for each of them to take out a Yuhuandan Pill. "
Then, he glanced at Chen Fengxiao and said, "Just now, I saw that Junior Brother Ren even wanted some inconspicuous herbs. It just so happens that I have a batch of herbs that are about 95 years old. The disciples and consecrators of our Pill Repository Hall don't know what they are. You …"
Before Wu Dalang could finish his sentence, Chen Fengxiao interrupted, "Aiyo, if Wu Dalang hadn't mentioned it, I would've almost forgotten about it. Is it the batch of herbs that my Grass Division disciples collected during the 'Orchid Dusk Refinement'?"
"Quiet Orchid Twilight Refinement?" Zhang Xiaohua frowned as she heard this name again.
Wu Zhouxu smiled and said, "Head Chen, it's that batch of medicinal herbs. However, a few years ago, you lost the medicinal pills to my Pill Department. Now, it belongs to our Pill Department."
"Although that batch of herbs is not young, we don't know their uses. Even the consecrators of our Pill Repository Hall don't recognize them. That's why they left them at Tian Mu Peak for us to deal with. Although my Grass Division lost to you, it's not worth 605 taels of gold!"
"When did I say that this batch of unknown herbs is worth 605 taels of gold? To be honest, your Grass Division is really something. Once you don't have any medicinal pills, you use herbs as compensation. You're like this, and your disciples are also like this. Do you know how many medicinal herbs you've given us in exchange for pills over the past ten years?"
"This …?"
Chen Fengxiao was extremely embarrassed.
"Moreover, don't you see these herbs in front of you?
You can say that they're all in the hands of your Grass Division. Where do you think our Pill Department got these herbs from? "
Chen Fengxiao still touched his chin and didn't speak.
Wu Zhouxu continued to make things difficult, "Moreover, the Ten Great Guardian Deities won a lot of herbs from you, but they don't want to keep them. What do you think we should do?"
Without waiting for Chen Fengxiao to say anything, or perhaps he didn't expect him to say anything, Wu Zhouxu continued, "These herbs can only be held in my hands. How much do you think I've accumulated over the years?"
Then he pointed to the piles of jade boxes and said, "More than this, not less!"
Zhang Xiaohua's eyes lit up. However, he didn't reply. He knew that Wu Zhouxu naturally had his reasons for saying so much. If he hastily replied, he would lose the initiative.
Chen Fengxiao looked at Zhang Xiaohua and didn't say anything. He smiled and said, "Wu Dalang, isn't this just right?
I thought that the heavens sent Junior Brother Ren to help me, but who would have thought that it was to solve your big problem. Didn't Junior Brother Ren say that as long as it's herbs, it's fine. Unknown herbs can also be used as compensation for pills. Heh heh, I've made the decision. Let's do it this way!
That batch of herbs that our Grass Division gave you will be calculated according to the amount of pills we gave you in the past. The ones in your hands will also be calculated according to this amount. What do you think? "
Wu Zhouxu spoke until his mouth was dry. Didn't he just want such a promise?
Seeing this, he was overjoyed and said, "If Junior Brother Ren doesn't have any objections, then I'll let the disciples call the herbs and the three Vajras over?"
Zhang Xiaohua nodded, "Since Head Master Chen has said so, how can I not agree?"
Chen Fengxiao suddenly said, "Wu Dalang, the bet between our two clans still needs to be settled with pills. I don't want those herbs."
Wu Zhouxu looked at Chen Fengxiao and said with narrowed eyes, "If Junior Brother Ren didn't want these herbs, I really want to use these herbs as compensation for your pills!
However, since Junior Brother Ren needs them, even if you want them, I don't have any extra. "
Then, he turned his head and asked, "Junior Brother Ren, Senior Brother is a little curious. What do you want these herbs for?
Ordinary herbs are fine, but these unknown herbs are completely useless. Don't tell me you want to refine pills? "
When these words were said, Chen Fengxiao's eyelids couldn't help but twitch.
Zhang Xiaohua smiled and said, "Sigh, Wu Dalang, you don't know. When I was talking to Senior Brother Bai about the herbs, I felt that it was too eye-catching to have so many pills in my hands. I'm a disciple of the Grass Division, so it shouldn't be a problem to have a few more herbs. Moreover, I've just arrived at Tian Mu Peak. Using pills to exchange for herbs can be considered as contributing to the Grass Division brothers and gaining popularity!"
Then, he smiled bitterly, "But I didn't think that the Senior Brothers of the Pill Division would also want to exchange. Do you think I should exchange or not?
Actually, these herbs of yours, I … I don't want to exchange them. What do I want these herbs for? I don't know how to refine pills. "
Then, he said with a crying face, "Why don't you empathize with me a little and use pills to repay the 605 taels of gold!"
"Eh ~" Wu Zhouxu raised his head and said, "The moon is already high up in the sky. It's really not early anymore. Junior Brother Ren, you should rest early. I'll get someone to send the herbs over tomorrow morning!
En, you don't have to look carefully at these piles of herbs. I can guarantee that the disciples of Tian Mu Peak don't have any more herbs. Hehe, actually, no one is interested in your herbs. "
After saying that, he didn't bid farewell to Zhang Xiaohua and Chen Fengxiao and walked away. He was afraid that Zhang Xiaohua would regret telling him about the herbs and pills.
When Wu Zhouxu walked out of the small courtyard, Chen Fengxiao also laughed loudly and cupped his hands, "Little Brother, rest early. Tomorrow, you'll have enough energy to exchange the herbs of the Pill Division. Hahaha, it's been a long time since I've been so happy. Today, I actually saw Wu Dalang suffer again!"
Chen Fengxiao led Bai Huan and the rest out of the small courtyard. The courtyard that had been bustling for the entire afternoon finally regained its silence. Zhang Xiaohua walked them to the door of the small courtyard and watched them leave before closing the door.
Looking at the mountain of jade boxes, he smiled bitterly and was happy at the same time.
He smiled bitterly because he really intended to keep a low profile and calm. He didn't expect to make such a big move. Although these herbs were like weeds, but if they were all concentrated in one person's hands, then there would be problems. Didn't Wu Zhouxu also sound him out just now?
Presumably, Chen Fengxiao also knew that he wanted to refine pills. It was just that it involved his interests, so he didn't say it out loud. Hehe, did he know how to refine pills?
Maybe he did!
What made Zhang Xiaohua pleasantly surprised was that not only the mountain of herbs, even the jade boxes seemed to be worth more than a hundred taels of gold. He didn't sweat in these three battles for nothing.
But, how should he take away these herbs and jade boxes?
The space in the money bag was filled with those jade coffin lids.
Alas, there would actually be a day where he would be troubled by too many valuable things. This was something that the money-grubber Zhang Xiaohua had never thought of.
"Forget it, I'll just pile them here first. In any case, they're worthless goods in their eyes!"
"As for the herbs, I'll just have to wait until I have time to refine them into pills in the future. Anyway, there are still many jade bottles in the money bag. They're probably used to store pills. As for the jade boxes, they can't be wasted. When I refine pills, I'll casually refine them and sell them for a good price."
When he finished thinking, he saw that it was indeed not early. Zhang Xiaohua didn't dare to be negligent. He struck out the jade talisman, set up a restriction, and began cultivating the Carefree Heart Sutra.
Spreading Incense Cult, White Mountain Peak, Hundred Herb Hall. An old man with a purplish-red face and a bald head, leaving only a ring of white hair around him, lazily sat on the chair in the middle. Although this old man's hair was already white, his face was abnormally fair and tender. Only the deep crow's feet at the corner of his eyes revealed his age. He was the Pill Spreading Hall's Hall Master, Elder Zi Shen.
Standing respectfully below the hall was Yang Yao.
At this moment, Elder Zi Shen was frowning and scratching his smooth forehead with his hand. No one knew what he was worried about. Yang Yao looked carefully from below the hall and asked tentatively, "Hall Master, you've been gone for several days. Why did you come back so soon …"
"Sigh." Elder Zi Shen sighed and said, "These are all miscellaneous matters of the sect. There's no need for our Pill Spreading Hall to worry about them. It's just that the matter of First Faith Peak seems to have caused the sect leader to scratch his head. He seems to be blaming us. Sigh, what does this have to do with us? It's just that the Misty Hall doesn't care about us because they're close to the sect leader. What can we do?"
"Ah?
First Faith Peak, this lowly one has always known that they don't get along with the other halls. There's often friction. We're only in charge of medicinal herbs and pills. It shouldn't have anything to do with them, right? "
"Sigh, you don't know. They're also … Forget it. Why am I telling you this? I'll think of a way to reply to the sect leader first.
Right, how did your trip to Rejuvenation Valley go this time? "
