Qiu Zu: From an apprentice in a medicine shop to an immortal ancestor.

After Steward An Kang left, the entire Qiu Family Village erupted in excitement.

Regardless of adults or children, men or women, young or old, they all stopped their work and gathered around.

Initially, the villagers had an instinctive fear of the mountains, and one by one, they didn't dare to approach Bai Shu.

However, seeing Bai Shu's delicate and adorable appearance, and hearing that this "monster" was intelligent and voluntarily followed Qiu Zhen, the fear in everyone's hearts diminished a lot, and they sized it up and down with great curiosity.

Some children even took the initiative to approach and ask:

"Are you a monster?"

"That's right, I am Bai Shu, the number one fierce general under the Young Master, with great magical power. I will become an earth-shattering great demon in the future!"

"Wow ~"

The children, not quite understanding, applauded and cheered:

"Bai Shu, Bai Shu, what skills do you have? Show us quickly!"

"Alright!"

Bai Shu had the heart of a child, and since everyone around was from his Young Master's clan, it didn't stand on ceremony and happily showed off its skills:

"Watch closely!"

Bai Shu had the children make way, and with its hands on its hips, it took a deep breath.

"Whoosh whoosh whoosh ~"

A bolt of lightning shot out and struck a giant tree not far away.

"Bang ~"

The large tree, as thick as a person could embrace, exploded with a "boom", splitting into pieces. The huge trunk and branches crashed to the ground with a "rumble."

"Ah ah ah ah ~"

The villagers, seeing this astonishing scene, changed their expressions drastically and looked at Bai Shu with awe, each holding their children and walking far away.

In a short moment.

The villagers who had originally surrounded Bai Shu in circles scattered in all directions.

Bai Shu touched its head, looking bewildered.

"Xiao Zhen, how did you subdue it?"

The old patriarch of the Qiu family saw the child-sized Bai Shu spitting out rolling thunder, blasting such a thick tree into pieces, and his old face was filled with shock:

"Will it lose control and hurt people?"

"Old patriarch, don't worry, Bai Shu is intelligent and won't hurt people casually."

Qiu Zhen reassured him, then explained:

"It voluntarily sought refuge and follows me. The noble in the city said that I have a destiny, but I don't know if it's true or not."

"A destiny, no wonder."

The old patriarch of the Qiu family revealed a thoughtful expression on his face.

Qiu Zhen was quite satisfied with the old patriarch's appearance.

Building a "destined genius" persona couldn't be done with just his words alone, but if hundreds of clansmen helped him spread the word, the situation would be different.

Anyone who has studied "Journalism" knows that things will become more and more outrageous as they are spread. If neighbors and friends testify for him and embellish the story, then after the matter ferments, there will naturally be "great scholars to debate for him" and complete the "destined genius" persona.

As long as the "destined genius" persona is established, it will be natural for his cultivation to improve faster, and it will not attract attention or attract the attention of the Demon Suppression Division.

An Residence, back garden.

An Jishi lay on a grandmaster's chair, leisurely reading a book.

"Young Master!"

An Kang arrived in a hurry, covered in dust.

An Jishi glanced at him, and seeing An Kang's appearance, he was a little surprised:

"Didn't you go to deliver the Ephemeral Amber to Qiu Zhen? Did something happen on the way?"

"Nothing happened on the way."

In private, An Kang was very casual. He poured himself a cup of tea and gulped it down, then his face revealed an excited look:

"Young Master, guess what I saw in Qiu Zhen's house?"

"Tsk ~"

Pharmacist An pretended to be impatient:

"You're still trying to keep me in suspense."

"Hehe."

An Kang smiled, his expression slightly excited:

"The demon beast that follows Qiu Zhen is no ordinary demon beast, but a monster suspected of possessing the bloodline of a great demon, about to step into the innate realm."

Upon hearing this, An Jishi's face also revealed a look of surprise, and the hand turning the pages of the book stopped in mid-air.

"Young Master, we really picked up a treasure this time and formed a great karmic connection."

An Kang said excitedly to himself:

"Qiu Zhen is currently just an ordinary acquired martial artist, yet a demon beast whose strength far exceeds him voluntarily follows him and protects him. Qiu Zhen is probably truly carrying a great destiny, and the time is ripe!"

An Jishi did not open his mouth to respond.

However, his silence often meant agreement.

"I misjudged."

An Jishi sighed inwardly, feeling a little regret in his heart. If only that day .

"Young Master, if I had known this earlier, it would have been better if you had accepted Qiu Zhen as a disciple that day. The karmic connection would have been even greater. You are only one step away from becoming a grandmaster. Many times, you are only lacking an opportunity. A person with a destiny has extremely strong luck. Maybe you can take advantage of the situation, but it's not too late now. You find an opportunity to accept Qiu Zhen as a disciple ."

"Nonsense, the improvement of martial arts can only rely on breaking through the shackles by oneself. Seeking illusory opportunities of luck is a misguided path."

"Yes, yes, yes, what the Young Master said is true."

An Jishi reprimanded him, and seeing An Kang nodding and agreeing, he shook his head, pondered for a long time, and said:

"In the future, Qiu Zhen will enter the residence to practice martial arts and study medicine. His treatment will be the same as my personal disciples. Treat him well."

"Yes."

An Kang grinned when he heard this, secretly amused.

The Young Master is just stubborn and regrets it, but he refuses to admit it.

The next day.

Early in the morning, Qiu Zhen took Bai Shu to the city.

Last night, he was not idle. He consulted Fairy Yun Rou and the Vacuum Monk, and compared them with the information he had seen in the books, and confirmed that there was no problem with the [Ephemeral Life] amber beads, so he wore them with him.

When he came to the Qingmu Medicine Shop, he was shocked by the scene in front of him.

To be precise, he couldn't even reach the entrance of the Qingmu Medicine Shop.

The reason was that the street outside the Qingmu Medicine Shop was crowded with disaster victims, and hundreds of people were lined up on the wide street.

These people were all weak and sickly.

Helplessly, Qiu Zhen detoured to the backyard before entering the medicine shop.

"Qiu Zhen, you've finally come."

Shopkeeper Liu was overjoyed when he saw Qiu Zhen:

"We are short of manpower right now, your timing is perfect."

"I will follow Shopkeeper Liu's instructions."

As Qiu Zhen spoke, he also saw that Shopkeeper Liu looked haggard, as if he had consumed a lot of energy and blood, and was a little surprised:

"Shopkeeper Liu, please take care, the loss of energy and blood is too great."

"Good eyesight."

Shopkeeper Liu praised him. He used his skills to slightly conceal it, but Qiu Zhen still saw the clue at a glance.

Saying that, he sighed:

"Alas, there is no way. Pharmacist An took people to the front line for free clinic last night. Only the people from our Qingmu Medicine Shop are left in the city to support. Many people among the disaster victims are infected with the evil energy of demons and need to use the [Taiyi Exorcism Acupuncture Method]. The old man is old, and after a round of diagnosis and treatment, I can't bear it."

"Taiyi Exorcism Acupuncture Method."

Qiu Zhen raised his eyebrows, feeling overjoyed in his heart.

These days, he had read many medical books in the An Residence's library.

Among them, there was a [Taiyi Exorcism Acupuncture Method] to expel evil Qi.

It is said that this method is a Taoist medical inheritance, and it was first used by Taoists to exorcise evil spirits. Later, the cultivation world declined, and this [Taiyi Exorcism Acupuncture Method] was improved by martial arts masters. No need to cultivate Taoism, no need for magic power, using the energy and blood of a martial artist to stimulate silver needles can also achieve the effect of "exorcism."

Qiu Zhen had the basics of acupuncture, and with his intelligence, he quickly mastered this [Taiyi Exorcism Acupuncture Method].

Originally, he was still worried about how to get Shopkeeper Liu to arrange for him to treat more disaster victims infected with demonic evil Qi.

Now the opportunity has come.

"Shopkeeper Liu, I know the Taiyi Exorcism Acupuncture Method!"
