One person: plays Wendy, the most carefree director of Nadu.

[Ding! Host's words and actions have been detected as causing teammates to break down; role-playing progress +1]

Current progress: 44/100

Hearing the system notification in his ear, Su Mu slowly typed out three question marks.

That brat Zhang Chulan actually broke down so easily?

He doesn't think he's slacking off or anything, does he?

If he finds out that I cured Tian Jinzhong, wouldn't he be slapping himself while saying he deserves to die?

However, it's good to be able to make progress in the role-playing process.

But Zhang Chulan, isn't he with Zhang Lingyu and Bao'er?

Zhang Lingyu goes without saying; although he is quite strong, he could potentially be singled out by Xia He.

But if Bao'er really puts her mind to something, maybe only the Old Master can hold her own against her.

Why did Zhang Chulan suddenly ask for help?

After we've cured Old Tian, ​​we should hurry over and check on him.

Thinking of this, Su Mu's hands moved even faster.

Before long, with Tian Jinzhong's suppressed groans, his feet grew back.

Su Mu raised his hand to wipe his sweat and exhaled.

"Old Tian, ​​it's done."

"Am I... really healed?"

Tian Jinzhong stared at his feet in disbelief, his turbid tears falling to the ground.

The door was pushed open with a bang, and Rong Shan barged in.

Upon seeing Tian Jinzhong's intact hands and feet, Rong Shan immediately threw himself into Tian Jinzhong's arms and burst into tears.

"Uncle-Master, you're finally healed!"

"Disciple, disciple... Waaaaah!"

Rongshan cried like a forty or fifty-year-old child.

"Okay, okay."

Tian Jinzhong patted Rong Shan on the shoulder.

"How old is she, still crying like that, really..."

"Disciple, disciple is just happy."

Rong Shan wiped away his tears, straightened up, turned around, and knelt down to kowtow to Su Mu.

"Mr. Su, on behalf of Uncle Tian, ​​Rongshan expresses his deepest gratitude for your great kindness!"

"Oh dear, you're exaggerating, you're exaggerating!"

Su Mu stepped forward to help Rong Shan up and smiled, "I was just trying it out; I didn't expect it to actually work."

"I'm very happy that I was able to cure Old Tian."

"Rongshan," Tian Jinzhong said, "Go to my room, move the third brick from the left against the wall on the left side of the bed, and then bring me the small box inside."

Rong Shan was taken aback for a moment, then nodded.

"Yes, Uncle-Master."

Su Mu couldn't help but raise an eyebrow.

Good heavens, is Grandpa Tian planning to use his hidden stash of money to reward me?

However, it's truly remarkable that someone who has lost all four limbs could hide things so well.

Thinking of this, Su Mu said, "Elder Tian, ​​I did all this voluntarily. You don't need to feel like you owe me anything or that you must repay me."

"No." Tian Jinzhong shook his head. "I should have taken this out a long time ago."

"Originally, I planned to take it out and give it to Chu Lan after the Luo Tian Grand Ceremony was completely over."

"It's just that we're taking it out ahead of time and handing it over to you."

Upon hearing this, Su Mu's mind stirred.

Holy crap?

There's actually something like this?

In other words, this is something related to Zhang Chulan, that is, the Jia Shen Rebellion, and it may even have some benefits.

Otherwise, Tian Jinzhong wouldn't have thought of giving it to Zhang Chulan, and now he's planning to give it to himself.

If that's the case, then let's wait and see.

Anyway, with Bao'er watching over Zhang Chulan, nothing serious should happen.

Thinking of this, Su Mu nodded.

"Alright, then I'll keep Elder Tian company for a while."

Meanwhile, on the other side, Zhang Chulan was being carried on Feng Baobao's head as they raced through the mountains.

Behind the two, endless talismans fell like rain, leaving the ground cratered and uneven!

Holding the walkie-talkie, Zhang Chulan screamed in despair, "Brother Su! Where the hell are you?!"

"Sorry, the user you are trying to reach has their phone switched off. Please try again later..."

"I'll be damned if you do that!"

Enraged, Zhang Chulan crushed the walkie-talkie in his hand.

I really don't know which bastard made this walkie-talkie, that he even considered the situation where there's no response when calling. He's really meticulous... what a joke!

Instead of spending time on this feature, why not implement an emergency forced call function?!

"Zhang Chulan, how about we go back and bury that old guy..."

"Bury my ass! Bao-jie, run! We need to find the Old Celestial Master!"

……

In the side room, Rongshan rushed back carrying a small box.

"Uncle-Master, the box has been found."

"Yes, thank you for your hard work."

Tian Jinzhong reached out his slightly trembling hand, took the box, and handed it to Su Mu.

"Here you go, Xiao Suzi, take this."

Su Mu took the box with both hands and opened the lid.

Inside the box was a small, round, dark ball that looked like a Maltesers.

"This is……"

"This is what Huaiyi gave me after I met him back then."

Tian Jinzhong closed his eyes, his face filled with reminiscence.

He said he brought this thing out from an extremely important and secret place, and that it has very peculiar effects.

"A very peculiar effect?" Su Mu was taken aback. "How peculiar?"

Tian Jinzhong did not answer directly, but instead slightly beckoned with his hand.

Su Mu understood and brought it to his lips.

"Huaiyi told me that this is a pill that, once consumed, can reshape the meridians throughout the body, allowing one to reach a state similar to that of an 'immortal'."

"At that time, whether it's circulating Qi or breaking through barriers, you'll achieve twice the result with half the effort."

Good guy!

I'm a really good guy!

Regardless of how Zhang Huaiyi, the big-eared bandit, treats others, he is truly good to his fellow disciples!

A elixir capable of reshaping the body's meridians and achieving a state of clarity akin to that of an immortal...

This thing is way better than any of the Eight Extraordinary Techniques, isn't it?

No wonder in the original story, Tian Jinzhong ultimately sought death instead of surviving and handing the thing over to Zhang Chulan.

If Lü Liang finds this thing in his memories and learns that Zhang Chulan took it, the number of people watching Zhang Chulan will increase tenfold or even a hundredfold.

At that point, the company won't be able to protect him.

This was Tian Jinzhong protecting him.

However, since Lü Liang and Gong Qing haven't succeeded yet, I won't let them.

Apart from Tian Jinzhong, no one else knew that they had obtained this elixir.

In this way, no trouble will come knocking.

As for whether Tian Jinzhong will reveal this matter...

Su Mu could only say that rather than considering that possibility, it was more likely that Gong Qing would rush in, kill him instantly, and then forcibly seize Tian Jinzhong's memories.

And this thing might even be used to exchange for artifacts!

Thinking of this, Su Mu took two steps back and bowed to Tian Jinzhong.

"Thank you, Mr. Tian. This is exactly what I need."

"That's good." Tian Jinzhong nodded. "Xiao Su, you go and deal with this thing first."

"And didn't Chu Lan need your help with something just now?"

"Go ahead, Rongshan is enough for me here."

Upon hearing this, Rong Shan nodded repeatedly.

"Yes, Mr. Su, you may go."

"I will keep an eye on Uncle Tian."

"Even if it costs me my life, I will never let anything happen to Uncle Tian!"
