The Mightiest Little Peasant Chapter 136 - Someone Abducted Taoist Master Chang Qing

Chapter 136: Someone Abducted Taoist Master Chang Qing

Another few days passed in the blink of an eye.
Tang Hao crafted many jade talismans in those days and sold them to Liu Dajun and the other bosses. To meet the demand, he went to the jade market several times and bought up almost all the high-quality jade.
Tang Hao made quite a lot of money from selling those talismans. He sold each piece for five hundred thousand yuan, earning him several ten million in a few days.
There was no news from the Luo family.
Luo Feng was an underhanded person. He must have made a lot of enemies, and the Luo family might not immediately suspect him for what happened to their Second Young Master.
He continued learning pill-making techniques in those days.
To gather materials for pill-making, he went around to look for medicinal herbs and even asked Liu Dajun and the other bosses to source certain hard-to-find ingredients for him.
He kept the medicinal herbs he gathered in his pocket dimension and sorted them by category.
Even so, Tang Hao could only complete just a few pill recipes. Making each pill required a variety of ingredients, and many of the ingredients were already extinct or critically endangered in modern times.
There was only one solution to the problem: Alter the pill recipe.
That was easier said than done. Every pill recipe was the result of many years of experimentation and had withstood the test of time. He could only attempt that he attained a higher level of cultivation.
Late at night, at the rooftop of a building.
Tang Hao sat with his legs crossed. In front of him was an alchemist’s furnace that was burning brightly.
Tang Hao placed the ingredients into the furnace one by one while controlling the intensity of the flame. The flames would distill the ingredients to produce a pure medicinal liquid.
He could then combine the liquids and reduce them into an alchemical pill.
It was not easy to make a single pill. Problems could easily happen at every step of the process. His furnace had blown up many times ever since he started practicing, and he had wasted many precious medicinal ingredients.
Fortunately, he became a little more proficient in pill-making every time he failed.
After putting all the ingredients into the furnace, Tang Hao began distilling the medicinal liquid. This time, he succeeded. All his past failures were at this step.
Tang Hao was elated. He calmed himself down and controlled the flame even tighter.
About twenty minutes later, the pill was complete.
He carefully inspected the pill that was about the size of a longan. It was white in color and was enveloped in faint light. A light fragrance wafted from it. He brought it close to his nose and found that the fragrance was stimulating.
“This is a good pill!” Tang Hao exclaimed excitedly.
The pill was called a Jade Bone Pill. It was his first success.
The Jade Bone Pill was a pill suitable for women who wanted to enhance their appearance. After taking it, the pill could alter one’s physical structure, as if bestowing the person skin of ice, bone of jade, and an enchanting fragrance.
Tang Hao beheld the pill for a while before keeping it.
Then, he continued with making more pills.
This time, he did not make a Jade Bone Pill. Instead, he made a Qi Restoration Pill.
As its name suggests, one could have their qi restored after taking the pill. It was essential for prolonged battles.
He failed a few more times, then finally had his first success.
When the sun came up, he only managed to successfully make three pills.
He went back to the mansion. Sis Xiangyi woke up when he was done preparing breakfast.
“You didn’t sleep again!”
“I didn’t! I was busy practicing!” Tang Hao said.
After breakfast, Tang Hao retrieved the Jade Bone Pill and gave it to Sis Xiangyi.
“This is for you!”
“What’s this?” Qin Xiangyi was curious.
“It’s an alchemical pill. The effects are miraculous, it’s even more potent than the beauty cream,” Tang Hao said.
“Really?” Qin Xiangyi was surprised.
“You’ll know it after you try!” Tang Hao smiled.
“I’ll try it then. You’d better not lie to me!” Qin Xiangyi took the pill and smelled it. “It smells so nice!”
Then, she put the pill into her mouth and swallowed it.
“I don’t feel anything!” She said gingerly.
“Just wait a bit!” Tang Hao smiled.
A few minutes later, Qin Xiangyi exclaimed in surprise. She saw a thick mud-like substance oozing out of the fair skin of her arms.
“What’s going on, Lil Tang?” Qin Xiangyi was panicking.
“It’s fine. That’s the sign that your body is cleansing itself and expelling the impurities. You’ll just have to take a shower later,” Tang Hao explained.
About fifteen minutes later, she could not tolerate the ooze on her body anymore. She ran into the bathroom.
Soon, the sound of flowing water was heard.
Qin Xiangyi came out of the bathroom half an hour later. She was wrapped in a towel.
“This is amazing, Lil Tang! Look at this, my skin has transformed completely!”
Qin Xiangyi lifted both of her arms ecstatically and admired them.
Even she could not believe that the pill had such miraculous effects. She felt as though she had stepped into a new body. Her skin became smooth and delicate, as though made of jade and ice.
“It smells nice too!”
She walked in front of Tang Hao and spun around bashfully. “Look, have I become prettier?”
Tang Hao was cross-eyed when he looked at her. Qin Xiangyi was already a beautiful woman. After taking the pill, she became even more beautiful, as though she had stepped out from a dream.
“Oh! You’re too beautiful!” Tang Hao praised her from his heart.
Qin Xiangyi chuckled happily. Suddenly, she leaned over, hugged Tang Hao, and whispered into his ear. “Why aren’t you carrying me into the room, silly?”
Tang Hao lifted her with his arms and went into the bedroom.
After a round of intense activity, Tang Hao saw Sis Xiangyi off at the door. He then rode on his little three-wheeled motorcycle and was preparing to go to Dragonrock Village when his phone started ringing.
He took it out and saw that it was from Shabby Taoist Master.
“I wonder if he wants more jade talismans!” Tang Hao mumbled.
Shabby Taoist Master had asked him about buying more jade talismans back then, though they were never in contact after their meeting.
“Hey, Taoist Master! Is there anything?” Tang Hao said.
“Hey kid, are you free these couple of days?” Shabby Taoist Master said seriously over the phone.
Tang Hao noticed the difference in his tone of voice. “What’s wrong, Taoist Master?”
Shabby Taoist Master was instantly furious. “It’s that Chang Qing. He got abducted!”
Tang Hao was shocked and did not know what to say.
Taoist Master Chang Qing might be the least powerful among them, but he was nonetheless a cultivator. Who would be so brazen or so powerful to abduct him?
