"That's great! Danheng will be shocked if he sees this. I'm already looking forward to seeing his expression. Do you think he'll reveal his hidden power on the spot?"
March 7th towards the bloody, barren ship.
Qiong: "Is there even a question? We'll be able to see the Great Azure Dragon then!"
Xing: "That's right, that's right, I haven't seen Teacher Danheng's Azure Dragon form yet~"
March 7: "Now that you mention it, I'd really like to see it too."
Chen Bai: "Me too."
"Alright, you lot, don't wander too far. Let's stroll around Changletian for a while. If the Grand Diviner has any news, I'll let you know. Just meet at Changletian Square."
"Understood, Uncle Yang!"
The four of them responded in unison.
After giving the four little ones some instructions, Walter went off to explore Chang Le Tian alone.
Chen Bai was holding Bai Lu Mi, and was planning to go around the area separately like the others.
He hadn't gone far when he was stopped by a Dan Ding Si (a type of alchemist).
"My friend, your complexion looks unusual. Perhaps there's something wrong with your health?"
The physician from the Dan Ding Division approached Chen Baimian and whispered to him.
"you are?"
Chen Bai frowned, immediately becoming wary of the unfamiliar man.
I have a feeling that this person is a bit like the salespeople I used to encounter while strolling around the commercial street, full of tricks and routines.
"My friend, I am a Danshi from the Danding Division. I never change my name or surname. I am Green Hibiscus!"
The visitor briefly introduced himself.
Dan Ding Si?
Chen Bai seemed to vaguely remember that this was one of the Six Imperial Offices of Luofu, responsible for medical and biological research, right?
As for Danshi, they are experts or staff members in the Dan Ding Si who focus on the refining and development of medicines.
When they came out of the Palace of the Gods earlier, Walter, this composed adult, gave them a brief introduction to the official knowledge about enjoying Luofu.
Chapter 62 No, I crave girls and money!
This person looked rather suspicious, standing there with his shoulders hunched, his eyes darting around, and he kept glancing quickly to either side, as if afraid of being caught talking to someone.
Chen Bai glanced at him and immediately made a judgment: this was probably another salesperson trying to sell him something.
Before the other person could say anything, he waved his hand decisively and said, "I'm perfectly healthy, there's nothing wrong with me, you don't need to worry about me."
Green Hibiscus was taken aback by this straightforward rejection, clearly not expecting such a reaction from the other party.
He quickly took a small step forward and lowered his voice to explain, "No, no, brother, you've misunderstood. That's not what I meant... You are indeed very healthy and have plenty of energy, am I right?"
"Sir, you are truly a miracle doctor!" Upon hearing this, Chen Bai not only did not relax, but instead crossed his arms and showed an "I understand" expression on his face. "However, I am not the kind of person who is easily fooled. Don't try to sell me any kidney tonics, health products, or anything that is not suitable for children. I don't need it."
Seeing that he was getting more and more confused, Green Hibiscus was so anxious that her teeth were itching.
He hesitated for a moment, then finally leaned closer, his voice extremely low, almost squeezed out from between his teeth: "Brother, I'm really not a salesman! And definitely not a pimp! Let me finish—"
"Then tell me," Chen Baiyang gestured with his chin, "what exactly do you want?"
Green Hibiscus glanced around again, making sure no one was watching, before focusing her voice and asking slowly in a coaxing tone:
"I'll just ask you one question... do you yearn for immortality?"
"No! I crave girls! And of course, a little money!" Chen Bai replied without changing his expression.
Green Hibiscus: ?
"Ahem, brother, are you kidding me? These mundane things can't compare to the wonder of immortality," Green Hibiscus coughed, continuing in a low voice, "Besides... with immortality, wouldn't you have money and girls too?"
"Uh~ what you said makes a lot of sense, then I long for immortality." Chen Bai's expression changed suddenly.
"That's more like it!"
Green Hibiscus was satisfied with Chen Bai's reply.
At the same time, Chen Bai's mind flashed back to the experience that Qiong had casually mentioned before, in his original world, he had encountered several suspicious people in the Changletian area who secretly recruited people into the secrets of the Medicine King.
The organization's core goal is to revive the faith in the Star God Pharmacist [Fengrao] and to attempt to use methods such as drug experiments to induce the "evolution" of the Immortal Ship people, ultimately overturning the existing order of the Immortal Ship Alliance.
To put it bluntly, it's a cult that can't be brought to light.
Judging from his evasive expression, this guy is a member of the "Secrets of the Medicine King".
Just as this thought flashed through her mind, Bai Lumi, who was crouching in Chen Bai's arms, suddenly moved.
It had been curled up quietly, but suddenly raised its head, its ear tips twitched slightly, and a very low, almost threatening gurgling sound escaped from its throat.
Chen Bai immediately noticed the little guy breathing.
Without making a sound, he raised his hand, seemingly casually stroking the fur on the back of Bai Lu Mi's neck, then pressed lightly with his fingertips:
"Sweetie, stop fooling around!"
As if she understood, Bai Lumi's sudden agitation gradually subsided.
It lowered its body again, but its eyes remained clear and bright, fixed firmly on the green hibiscus.
"Ahem, it's not convenient to talk here. Come with me, and I promise you won't regret it!"
Green Hibiscus gestured for him to speak in a quieter corner.
Chen Bai nodded and followed him to another corner.
He was now certain that this guy wanted to recruit him into the Secret of the Medicine King.
However, Lao Yang should have already exposed the leader of their organization before. Now Jing Yuan should be thinking about how to take down the secrets of the Medicine King without alerting Huanlong before reinforcements arrive.
"Tell me, where is this immortality you speak of?"
Chen Bai "cooperated" by revealing a look of longing for immortality in his eyes, which delighted Green Hibiscus.
Great, it seems we should be able to achieve our KPIs ahead of schedule.
After all, this person is clearly a short-lived species. Everyone who comes to Luofu, besides Luofu's own technology, either desires longevity. However, the Luofu authorities have very strict control over this aspect.
"Don't rush. If you want to live forever, then you've come to the right place."
The other person uttered a sentence that Chen Bai found very similar to an old advertisement promoting health products for the elderly.
He then adopted a reserved and hesitant demeanor, tinged with a hint of longing, and asked, "Aren't you afraid of being found out by the officials of the Immortal Ship?"
"Official? We are the official body?! Have you forgotten that I am a pill refiner from the Pill Refining Department?"
Green Hibiscus said smugly.
Well, as Chen Bai predicted, the Dan Ding Si, one of the Six Imperials of Luofu, has been so thoroughly infiltrated by the Medicine King's secrets that it's practically a sieve.
The blind general must have a very dark expression on his face, now that he knows the truth.
"If you want to live forever, then come with me!"
"it is good!"
So Chen Bai obediently followed behind Green Hibiscus.
Soon, they arrived at the gate of a secluded courtyard.
Before going in, Green Hibiscus specifically reminded Chen Bai of one thing:
"Next, I will take you to see Lady Ziyueji. You must be mindful of your attitude. If you want to achieve immortality, you need to know some social skills, understand?"
Chen Bai patted his chest, looking confident, and said, "Don't worry! No one understands social skills better than me!"
"Row!"
Seeing that Chen Bai answered so readily, Green Hibiscus felt much more at ease, and then led Chen Bai into the courtyard.
Soon, Chen Bai met the Lady Purple Moon, whom Green Hibiscus had mentioned.
The other person was a gray-haired man wearing the uniform of a Dan Ding Si Dan Shi (a type of alchemist).
"Green Hibiscus, is this the new member you recommended?"
Purple Rose asked.
"Yes, Lord Ziyueji, it is indeed him."
Green Hibiscus responded immediately and gave way to Chen Bai behind her.
“Okay.” Zi Yueji nodded. “In that case, let’s take the exam together later. Two new members will be arriving soon.”
"Yes!"
After saying that, Zi Yueji temporarily left the courtyard.
Chen Bai asked Green Hibiscus with a puzzled look, "Are there any other new members besides me?"
"Yes, another colleague of mine, Bai Qianniu, seems to have recruited two new people. Judging by the time, they should be here soon. You will participate in the test with them... Let me give you a sneak peek: the test is to copy the 'Thousand-Handed Compassionate Medicine King Salvation Chapter' scripture five hundred times in one day."
Green Hibiscus nodded and then replied in a whisper.
Copy the scriptures five hundred times?
Goodness!
Does that mean my hands will be crippled?
He only did it a few dozen times when he was in high school; these five hundred times would probably kill him.
However, just as Qiong said, the way the Gouba Medicine King Secret Registrar recruits people to become official members is by copying scriptures, rather than setting up more rigorous screening mechanisms such as psychological tests or background checks.
It's not unreasonable that such an organization was subsequently dismantled.
Chapter 63 What are you copying? Watch my performance!
Soon after, the white morning glory that Green Hibiscus had mentioned brought two newbies.
Chen Bai also knows these two newbies.
"Ah Bai, what are you doing here?"
Two familiar little gray dogs came into view.
Chen Bai: "....."
Well, he didn't expect that Xing and Qiong would also be dragged into this.
"How would I know? I originally just wanted to take a look around, but who would have thought that someone would suddenly stop me? I found out that it was someone from the Medicine King's Secret Sect, so I wanted to see what this organization was all about?"
Chen Bai replied.
Xing: "So what do you think of this organization?"
Chen Bai spread his hands and said, "A lump of shit."
Star, Dome: "?"
Chen Bai: "Think about it, a well-organized and promising organization must have a strict selection mechanism. But the requirement for becoming a full member of this so-called Medicine King's Secret is copying scriptures, and copying them 500 times a day! Even if you can finish copying them, I think it's unreliable!"
Xing: "That makes sense."
Qiong: "So what are you planning to do? You're not really going to copy the scriptures, are you? Let me tell you, I almost did in my original world."
Chen Bai rolled her eyes at him: "What are you copying for! Just wait and see my performance!"
Xing and Qiong exchanged a glance, then gestured to Chen Bai: "Yes, Sir!"
After a while, Zi Yueji reappeared, her gaze sweeping over the three people in the courtyard, and she slowly spoke:
“Very good. I must make it clear beforehand that if you fail the upcoming tests, you will not be qualified to be embraced by the Compassionate Medicine King.”
After saying this, he led the three to a long table. Several copies of "The Compassionate Medicine King's Salvation Manual" were neatly arranged on the table.
Chen Bai casually picked up a book, opened the pages, glanced at it, and then suddenly raised his arm.
