nChapter 126 – To adapt to one’s taste (3)
nSu Luo lifted her eyebrows with a smile that was not a smile: “May I ask, is Steward Xu in?”
nSteward Xu? A complicated expression flashed across Steward Leng’s face; Steward Xu’s identity was mysterious, and was not someone he could casually offend.
nHe stared at Su Luo, turned around, then walked away, but he still left behind a single sentence: “Let them in.”
nEven though he was merely a steward, he was actually arrogant to this extent … Su Luo shook her head, she would not bother with this type of person. However if he committed such offense within her hands, then he better beseech good fortune for himself.
nWith a servant leading the way, Su Luo was very quickly reunited with Steward Xu.
nAlthough Steward Xu did not experience that kind of difficult situation of kneeling outside the doors, he was not much better off.
nSteward Leng had placed Steward Xu in room located in a side wing of the manor. A young maid was standing on the side waiting for orders; if hungry, there were pastries on the table, if thirsty, there was tea that was neither hot nor cold, fulfilling the basic requirements mandated by etiquette. However, he still wouldn’t let Steward Xu meet with Apothecary Leng.
nSteward Xu’s entire face was full of anxiety. “We can endure it but master can’t, this won’t do! I must personally look for Apothecary Leng. I don’t believe that based on master’s prestige, that he, Leng Yan, would dare to utter the word ‘no’!”
nAlthough this manor was the Tigerwolf Regiment’s secret base, in order to save His Highness, this kind of risk was worth taking.
nSu Luo frowned, was he preparing to inform Apothecary Leng of Nangong Liuyun’s identity?
nHe could only see Su Luo blocking his path., Lowering her voice, she said. “The matter has not reached such an extent. How about this, let me give it a try.”
nAlong the way, Su Luo had observed and heard everything, she already had a good grasp of Leng Yao’s temperament. She merely lifted her hands to summon the servant to come, and softly instructed. “Bring me brush, paper and ink-stone.”
nAlthough the servant was puzzled, she nevertheless brought all the items Su Luo asked for.
nSitting in front of the table, Su Luo’s hand dipped the brush with ink. It seemed as if she was deep in thought.
nBut in actuality, her spirit was already in her space.
nShe remembered that when she was in the cave, in addition to picking up Elder Zi Huo’s 《Obscure Pill Recipes》, there were also another dozen yellow pages of short notes, with densely-packed symbols and words. At that time, Su Luo’s was in an urgent situation, and thus had no time to carefully examine it, only guessing that it could be Primeval Pill Recipes.
nA moment ago, she heard Apothecary Zuo say that you could only move Apothecary Leng Yan, if you could give him Primeval Pill Recipes.
nTherefore, Su Luo immediately thought of that stack of yellow papers left in the corner of her space.
nSu Luo picked it up and carefully flipped through it. Sure enough, every sheet of paper was a pill recipe. Also, it was clearly written on top of every sheet the words Primeval Pill Recipes.
nAlthough Su Luo had never seen what other Primeval Pill Recipes looked like, but Elder Zi Huo’s reputation was nevertheless a trustworthy guarantee. Anything that Elder Zi Huo viewed as valuable enough to be put together with his《Obscure Pill Recipes》could absolutely not be a fake.
nSu Luo randomly pulled one out, looked at it, and found that it was a recipe for 《Rebirth of Flesh Pill》.
nRebirth of Flesh Pill, as the name implied, was the idea of regenerating new flesh. If someone had their hand or foot cut off, with the Rebirth of Flesh Pill, it would be possible to regrow the limbs as before.
nThis sheet of Primeval Pill Recipes had been lost from the continent for a long time. Nobody would have predicted that it would once again appear in Su Luo’s hands.
nSu Luo closely studied this sheet of Primeval Pill Recipe.
nNot only were the required ingredients listed in detail, but it also successively listed every step in the procedure, every detail, and any possible problems that could come up, as well as the solutions to those problems. All of it had been painstakingly clearly recorded. Moreover, to refine this Rebirth of Flesh Pill required the services of an Advanced Apothecary or higher.
nSu Luo was currently very far from an Advanced Apothecary, and it would require her to walk a long road to get there. Therefore, she did not care about this pill recipe.
nNaturally if this sheet of pill recipe was still unable to move Apothecary Leng, then Su Luo would consider offering him the Zi Huo medicinal cauldron. After all, with regards to her thoughts, the Zi Huo medicinal cauldron was merely a dead object, while Nangong Liuyun was a responsibility that she could not shift to anyone else.
nAlthough Su Luo knew that the Primeval Pill Recipe was very precious, but the facts afterwards proved that she had still excessively underestimated its worth…
