Chapter 121: Enlightening The Spirit Ox! The Reappearing Left Path Expert!
【After agreeing, by turning their own plan back on them, to the rogue cultivators’ request to construct a Blessed Land, the offerings they presented this time contained something that surprised you. Congratulations, you have obtained Rat Spirit Fruit x2 and Golden Jade Angelica Bark x1!】
Chen Han naturally received the Rat Spirit Fruit, and of course knew its benefits. Just look at You Fu: it has become a spirit and is now smarter than many foolish humans.
What surprised him was that this time the rogue cultivators’ offerings were more than one item. It seemed the matter of building a rogue cultivator cave dwelling was no small thing, and these rogue cultivators also knew that offering only one item would show no sincerity.
So this time, they offered 2 Rat Spirit Fruits and one scroll of Golden Jade Angelica Bark.
【Rat Spirit Fruit: this is a special Spirit Fruit, very popular with animals. It can attract spiritual and intelligent animals, because Rat Spirit Fruit can help animals Open spiritual intelligence!
Limitation: animals without spirituality and intelligence must not use it. If they do, it will injure the brain or cause sudden death!】
【Golden Jade Angelica Bark: this is a special spiritual root bark, golden-jade in color. One scroll of Golden Jade Angelica Bark can be used to brew 5 kilograms of Medicinal Wine. After brewing for 10 days, it will have a special effect: treat arteriosclerosis symptoms +】
The Rat Spirit Fruit looked exactly the same as the previous one, while the Golden Jade Angelica Bark was entirely golden-jade in color.
Chen Han was not surprised by the effect of the Rat Spirit Fruit, since he had already seen it. What surprised him was the effect of this Golden Angelica Bark: it could brew 5 kilograms of Medicinal Wine with a +2 attribute for treating arteriosclerosis symptoms.
This was simply insanely powerful.
This, like Dog Demon Spine Bone Bone Wine, could become part of the Chen Clan’s Foundation.
Many people might not know what arteriosclerosis symptoms are. Like the rheumatism and paralysis symptoms that Dog Demon Bone Wine can treat, they are among the seven major incurable diseases in current medicine.
Many people suffer from rheumatism for years; in severe cases it can lead to joint deformities and disability.
Arteriosclerosis is even more serious. Cardiovascular, cerebrovascular, and peripheral blood vessels can all develop problems, easily leading to angina, myocardial infarction, cerebral hemorrhage, and so on.
This is the disease those big figures fear most. Once it appears, no matter how rich or powerful they are, they have to consider retirement or stepping down to a secondary position.
However, the ones who suffer the most are still ordinary people. They are tormented by disease, forced to go to various hospitals, take various scans, take all kinds of drugs, undergo all kinds of treatments, clinging to the hope of curing the disease and escaping the torment.
Some hospital doctors will tell them this disease cannot be cured. Others will not tell them it is incurable, that it cannot be cured and can only be controlled…
As if those doctors’ medical skills are lacking, and they never learned this knowledge point.
Of course, the scariest thing is when people treat the doctors who tell the truth as incompetent, while believing those who do not speak frankly, then spend a huge amount of money and still do not get cured.
It is precisely because this belongs to the category of incurable diseases that if Medicinal Wine brewed with this Golden Angelica Bark can treat arteriosclerosis +2, then it is absolutely formidable.
If they encounter a tycoon with this symptom, tormented for years, might he not be moved by the Heavenly Lord of Demon Subjugation, have a great awakening, and be willing to donate huge sums to promote the Heavenly Lord’s teachings?
So, is this Medicinal Wine part of the foundation or not?
After Guo Zhen presented the offerings, he also took the opportunity to invite Chen Kai: “Director Chen, I wonder if you could take a walk around the village and guide the construction of our village?”
Chen Kai did not refuse, and he also invited Chen Han: “Chen Family Head, let’s go take a look together.”
Chen Han did not refuse, and went out together with them to the village.
They could see that the people in the village had already begun cleaning the village roads. Although there was a cement road outside the village led by the county’s construction, there was none inside the village. To create a bed and breakfast project, the roads inside naturally had to be cleared.
After walking around Shangyuan Village once, Guo Zhen did not forget to introduce: “After integrating accommodation resources, there is a large slope in the village. At that time, the village plans to set up a grass-skiing project there, and also integrate the fish ponds over there to create a fishing project. Naturally, the revenue generated will also be categorized under the projects that provide 30% compensation to the Chen Clan.”
Chen Kai nodded, praising Shangyuan Village’s initiative in actively using village resources to open projects.
It was just that how far it could go would still depend on how well the Chen Clan developed.
After all, it all relied on tourists brought by the Chen Clan.
If the Chen Clan developed well, then not only Shangyuan Village, but perhaps the nearby villages, and likewise the county, could all benefit.
After that, he curiously asked, “Village Chief Guo, I wonder if I could meet the investor of your village?”
Guo Zhen nodded and led them to the village office, then called inside, “Mr. Lin, Mr. Lin, Director Chen from the County Culture and Tourism Bureau is here and wants to see you.”
A moment later, Ming Di came out from inside. His face was still a bit pale; taking that pill had made him have diarrhea too fiercely, and even after being hospitalized and getting an IV drip, he had not recovered that fast.
The appearance of people from the County Culture and Tourism Bureau surprised him.
The Chen Family Head beside them surprised him even more.
But this was reality, not filming videos plot, so he immediately greeted them with a full smile: “Director Chen, hello, hello, my name is Lin Ming… Brother Chen, we meet again.”
“Brother Chen” was naturally addressed to Chen Han.
In reality he had to call him brother. When they shook hands, his face also showed a kind of respect. After all, he was piggybacking on the other party’s popularity and enjoying his bonus; it was only proper.
Chen Han responded politely, but was looking on in surprise at the prompt that appeared again in his mind:
【After the invitation from the rogue cultivator representative, you followed the trend and entered the rogue cultivator gathering place to check the situation, only to learn that the idea for the rogue cultivators to build a Blessed Land was proposed by a rogue cultivator named Lin Ming. Now, he seems to have gained some reputation among the rogue cultivators.
Moreover, you sense that he has suffered a serious injury, and the lingering a trace of scent from the injury seems to come from the fake Body Tempering Pill you released.
Therefore, this Lin Ming, whose face is now full of respect, should be a demonic cult rogue under an alias. Since the target is locked, you want to see what his purpose is in inciting rogue cultivators to build a Blessed Land!】
“???” Chen Han felt that the game system was starting to slander him.
When did he ever release fake Body Tempering Pills?
Ming Di’s hospitalization had nothing to do with him, yet now this plot lined up with what Ming Di had said, as if it had all been his scheme?
It seemed that in the game plot, as the patriarch he was also someone skilled at using strategy.
Chen Kai naturally also recognized this Mr. Lin, who was exactly that demonic cult rogue Ming Di on Douyin.
Since the other party was willing to contribute to Linhe County, for them, that was all to the good.
The group negotiated for a while longer, then, because there were matters in the county, Chen Kai directly took his leave.
Chen Han also returned to his own courtyard and immediately called his uncle.
As soon as the telephone connected, he instructed, “Uncle, I want to brew Medicinal Wine. Please help me prepare another 5 kilograms of liquor and auxiliary materials for brewing Medicinal Wine.”
“Mm, leave it to me.” Chen Lin agreed to handle this matter.
After hanging up, Chen Han lay down on the lying chair for a bit, then checked the alchemy video. The data was very good, the growth was fast, and it was clearly about to blow up.
Judging from the trend, it should be entering the very popular video ranks. It seemed that scientific alchemy was eye-catching.
This put him in a very good mood. He picked up his mobile phone and started scrolling videos, but today something was off. The first two videos in a row were both negative news.
The first video was about a certain university installing air conditioners for students due to the hot sun, but only installing them for foreign students.
The second video showed a woman bringing some Little Japan people to stay at a hotel in a place where there had been a past massacre, getting rejected, and trying to use public opinion to denounce the hotel.
Chen Han felt that his posture when opening Douyin today was a bit off; otherwise why would it keep pushing him this kind of video.
What age was this, and there were still so many people who could not stand up straight.
Fortunately, after a few more scrolls, things went back to normal. There was a dog charging into a flood, not wanting to be separated from its owner. How touching was that?
Even a dog knows who it should treat well; some people who cannot stand up straight are not even as good as a dog.
Another scroll, and a blazing hot video with a flame symbol shocked him. It was actually that Kun Kun making a comeback; this person was something of a legend.
After all, he had been blackened by countless people because of a basketball video. But when he fell on hard times, being falsely accused, leaving the internet, and going to court, almost becoming the next Fan Fan, it was not the Little Fairies who left who supported him, but those countless people who had blackened him before.
【A fellow practitioner sent a message through the Spirit Shadow Mirror: a terrifying expert, long missing from the Left Path and extremely powerful, has suddenly reappeared. As the conflict between the Righteous Path and demonic forces grows ever more intense, it is unclear whether this is good or bad!】
“????” Chen Han was in the middle of eating melon drama when he suddenly got this game prompt, and he felt numb.
Game system, make yourself clear: that expert is not good at Kun Fist, right?
While he was still stunned, Chen Han suddenly saw a message arrive in the backend of his mobile phone. He opened it, then was dumbfounded:
“Because your video is suspected of serious food-related violations, the video has been removed…”
“???” Chen Han was instantly confused.
What was going on?
When had he ever been suspected of serious video violations? He had never promoted any violations.
He immediately opened his Douyin account and saw that the alchemy video was gone. For them to directly remove his video meant something had definitely happened.
The first thing he thought of was Ming Di’s hospitalization after taking the pill.
But that should not be enough to get his video removed. If that were the reason, it should have been removed yesterday.
He went online to check Douyin and roughly understood the reason: someone had imitated his alchemy video again. With popularity, there would definitely be people piggybacking.
A small internet celebrity, like Ming Di, had eaten the paste he refined and also ended up in the hospital. The key point was that this influencer was worse off than Ming Di, even bleeding during diarrhea.
“I was only acting out of curiosity, learning the alchemy taught online by the Chen Family Head. I did not know that the pills refined by the Chen Family Head would be so serious…”
Chen Han was speechless. When had he ever taught alchemy? If you want to piggyback on popularity, just say so. Ming Di was already a precedent and still got himself into the hospital, and now he was blaming him?
This was probably why internet celebrities who piggyback on popularity were hated by so many.
Damn it, if that person were in front of him, he would definitely hit them with a Hemorrhoid Skill.
No, ten.
As soon as this thought surfaced, he froze. If one hemorrhoid tormented someone for ten days, would ten hemorrhoids that were not thrown out mean a hundred days?
If the Hemorrhoid Skill tormented for a hundred days, could they survive?
Chen Han hurriedly shook his head. That thought was too terrifying, totally the style of a demonic path great troll.
Still, it seemed Chinese medicine must not be eaten recklessly; problems could arise.
He also needed to remind his junior sister. If she tried alchemy outside in the same way, without the Spirit Fire Stove and Spirit Pressure Cauldron, the pills refined and eaten could also cause problems.
“Senior brother…”
As he was thinking about his junior sister, she arrived. She hurried into the courtyard. “Senior brother, your video has been blocked. People online imitated your alchemy and all ended up in the hospital. What is going on?”
Seeing his junior sister ask about this, Chen Han pondered how to explain. He could not mention the Spirit Pressure Cauldron and Spirit Fire Stove that the game system recognized.
So he could only continue with the feng shui array explanation: “Junior sister, if it were so easy to refine Body Tempering Pills, would I be able to film a video and upload it online? Only at my uncle’s place, using that gas stove and pressure cooker. Even changing to another pressure cooker might not work, because the feng…”
“Feng shui array?” Xiao Yu blurted out, “Because there is also a feng shui array’s energy overflowing in Uncle’s kitchen, and that gas stove and pressure cooker have strong guidance ability?”
“Uh!” Chen Han was stunned. What kind of leap was that?
His junior sister did not even know how to make stuff up.
Still, since she had already filled in the blanks, he replied ambiguously, “Not bad, you have learned to answer first.”
“Of course, I am not stupid,” Xiao Yu said with a little pride.
Chen Han smiled without comment. After parting from his junior sister, he looked at the two Rat Spirit Fruits in the warehouse.
These required spiritual animals to consume. He immediately thought of You Fu’s parents.
They were two spiritual oxen, parents who for the sake of their child were even more moving than humans, at least in giving the best chance to You Fu.
So, with two Rat Spirit Fruits, he could just use them to enlighten these two old oxen. Before that, he first found You Fu, sat cross-legged on its back, then opened mobile phone recording and headed toward Great Uncle Five’s cattle shed.
Since the alchemy video had been blocked, he would film another video of enlightening the old oxen.
“Today, my Beast Taming Technique has made a breakthrough, and I have sensed that two mature Mountain Shaking Spirit Oxen have entered our family lands and have affinity with the Chen Clan. I am going specifically to enlighten them!”
He had just said this to the phone when he saw Chen Jun and Dalong coming over from the other side wearing ancient-style clothing.
That was their work uniform. As members of the Demon Subduing Hall, they needed to patrol family territory to check whether any demonic cult rogues had infiltrated.
The two of them ran over and immediately dropped to one knee. “We pay respects to the Patriarch!”
They even cupped their fists, though their expressions were a bit exaggerated.
Originally, some tourists nearby had been busy with their own affairs and had not noticed Chen Han. But with the two shouting like that, everyone looked over and immediately picked up their phones to film.
“Rise, and follow me to enlighten the Spirit Oxen,” Chen Han said, seeing the two enter character. Then he rode You Fu and continued toward Great Uncle Five’s cattle shed.
Chen Jun and Dalong naturally followed at once. Brother Han was clearly filming another video.
The tourists’ attention was also drawn. Everyone who came to play here knew that this Chen Family Head was an internet celebrity and that his videos were very abstract.
So when they heard the phrase “enlighten Spirit Oxen,” they all became very curious about what was going on, and some followed along.
These tourists quickly followed to a cattle shed, where they saw the Chen Family Head riding an ox. Then, inside the shed, the two old oxen suddenly stood up and looked toward them.
Seeing this, Chen Han took out the two Rat Spirit Fruits.
You Fu seemed to smell the a trace of scent of the Rat Spirit Fruit and started mooing.
Hearing this, the two old oxen in the shed also became a bit restless, pacing back and forth, clearly understanding something.
Chen Han continued filming toward the cattle shed. “The two adult Mountain Shaking Spirit Oxen that intruded into the family territory have been trapped by the family elders in a beast cage forged from hard refined black iron. Where are the family’s heavenly prodigies? Quickly open the beast cage. This Patriarch is going to enlighten the Spirit Oxen.”
Chen Jun and Dalong had long been ready to appear on camera, so they shouted in unison, “Yes, Patriarch!”
The two of them went straight over and opened the cattle shed door.
A girl among the tourists who had followed them burst out laughing at this scene. She knew the Chen family was filming another abstract video.
The cattle shed was either wood or bamboo, yet in his words it had become hard refined black iron, and the cattle shed a beast cage.
But when she saw the two old oxen walk out of the cattle shed, go straight to stand in front of the Chen Family Head, and then kneel down on their front legs, her laughter stopped instantly.
In the next moment she directly blurted, “What the f—”
