872. The Curative Effect of the Potion (2)Translator: Guy Gone Bad
Zhao Hou nodded and said, “Yeah! When I got another poison attack, we should know how effective it is.”
Mo Tianzheng looked at him, with something flashing across his heart, but he didn’t catch it.
…
The thing that Cheng Mobai gave Zhao Hou a potion soon spread to the ears of the pharmacists association.
“Today, Cheng Mobai gave Zhao Hou a potion.” Wei Yanhe said.
“I heard that too, but I heard that the potion was very strange. It looked more like poison.” Tang Shunfeng said.
“No matter what, we shouldn’t take it lightly!” Not knowing when, Wei Yanhe had habitually raised his guard against Mo Fei.
“Do any of you have a sample of that potion?” Wei Yanhe asked the three of them.
Feng Tianhong shook his head and said, “Our Chu family isn’t on friendly terms with Zhao Hou.”
Chu Changsheng also shook his head.
“I heard that Cheng Mobai took that empty bottle away from Zhao Hou’s hand. They are very wary now. It’s not that easy to get a sample.” Tang Shunfeng said.
Wei Yanhe bit his teeth, “If so, forget about it.”
…
After Cheng Mobai and Wang Weixing took the potion, the poison inside their body was vaguely controlled, taking this opportunity, Mo Fei went to the Stone Tablet Woods again.
Grinding a chopper will not hold up the work of cutting firewood. Mo Fei was crystal clear that give his present ability, he was far from working out the antidote for the soul-killing potion.
Mo Fei looked at those forty-eight stone tablets, and soon felt dizzy.
But he was not discouraged. As soon as his head began to sink, he’d start from the first one.
Each time he looked at those former stone tablets, he’d have different feelings.
During the ten days after Wang Weixing and Cheng Mobai took the potions, Mo Fei had been staying in the stone tablet woods. Days were flat like water.
“…”
Four or five days later after Zhao Hou took the potion, there was still no symptom of the poison attack.
“Brother Zhao, according to the calculation, you should have had the poison attack yesterday.” Mo Tianzheng said.
Zhao Hou nodded and said, “Yes! I think it’s probably been delayed. It’s supposed to be these days.”
Seven or eight days after Zhao Hou took the potion, he still hadn’t had another poison attack. Finally something found it strange, so they went to Cheng Mobai.
“Cheng Mobai, does the potion your disciple develops work?” Wang He asked urgently.
“Theoretically, it is effective, but in practice, whether it is effective, it still needs further observation.” Cheng Mobai felt the chin.
Mo Tianzheng rolled his eyes, “What effect does the potion have, theoretically speaking?”
Cheng Mobai shrugged his shoulders and said, “My disciple said that the potion can theoretically prolong the time of the poison attack ten times and reduce the pains to one tenth. Of course, it is just a theory.”
Wang He bit his teeth, “How about you sell me one? You name the price.”
Mo Tianzheng said coldly, “Wang He, do you think only you have the star crystals?” then instantly changed a smiling face, and gave Cheng Mobai a flattering eye, “Brother Cheng, sell the potion to me, I’ll double his star crystals.”
“Who doesn’t have star crystals? Brother Cheng, no matter what, you have to sell me one.” Cang Yu cut in.
Cheng Mobai complained in his heart: these people, one is richer than another, only I am a poor man, oh no, Wang Weixing is also poor.
“It’s not a problem about star crystals, there are only three.” Cheng Mobai said helplessly.
“How come there are only three?” Wang He did not understand the tunnel.
“Because there were not enough star herbs! It is already not easy to refine three.” Cheng Mobai said helplessly.
As Cheng Mobai said so, the few of them who were surrounding him felt a bit embarrassed. When Mo Fei was trying to collect star herbs, most of them chose to stand by for no one didn’t want to offend the association. Even some of them helped, it was only some minor favors.
Mo Tianzheng looked at Cheng Mobai, “How about this? Brother Cheng, just tell us what kind of star herbs you need, we will try our best to get them for you.”
Cheng Mobai furrowed, “Don’t be like this. It’s still not proved whether it’d really work. If it is not effective, you’d waste your effort and those star herbs.”
Mo Tianzheng said, “No matter it works or not, we’ll try.”
“Don’t! If it is invalid, it’d be so embarrassing! Last time, the potion my disciple developed didn’t work, a lot of people said he has gone crazy. This time, if it’s proved not effective, who knows what people would say about him?” Cheng Mobai said while shaking his head.
Mo Tianzheng looked at Cheng Mo Bai, “Brother Cheng, why care about what those ignorant people say? Just ignore them!”
“Whether the potion works or not, we are all grateful for it.” Cang Yu moved forward.
“Brother Cheng, you talk to Mo Fei, don’t worry about wasting the star herbs or whether the potion will work. We’ll all root for him.”
“Yes! Brother Cheng, we absolutely believe in your disciple’s ability.”
…
A group of heavenly class surrounded Cheng Mobai trying to talk some nonsense into him, which made him so annoyed.
