Yang Kun, Qian Xinxin and Qi Ming prepared the things they needed for the journey and were ready to set off.
Yang Kun looked at the Yuewu Immortal Sect which was getting farther and farther away from him, and suddenly he felt enlightened.
Qian Xinxin held Yang Kun's hand and comforted him. After letting Yang Kun pat her hand, she resolutely left Yuewu Immortal Sect.
Yang Kun took out the jade tube given to him by the sect leader, and after putting it on his forehead for a while, he had memorized the words in the jade tube in his mind, and then set out to find the first medicinal herb.
The first medicinal herb only exists in the deep mountains of Nanzhou, so Yang Kun, Qian Xinxin and Qi Ming first went to Qian Xinxin's shop to ask if there was this medicinal herb. After finding out that there was none, they decided to go to the deep mountains of Nanzhou to look for it themselves.
When Yang Kun, Qian Xinxin and Qi Ming were about to leave the shop, they were suddenly stopped by the shop owner.
The boss looked at Qian Xinxin who had stopped walking and asked hesitantly, "Boss, are you going to the mountains of Nanzhou to collect herbs yourself?"
"Of course."
Qian Xinxin looked at the hesitant shopkeeper and couldn't help but frown and asked, "What do you want to say? Tell me quickly, I have other things to do."
Seeing that Qian Xinxin was getting impatient, the shop owner did not dare to hesitate any longer and told him his story right away.
"For some reason, the shop has not been able to purchase many medicinal herbs these days, so there are not many medicinal herbs left to sell. I want the boss to make a decision on this matter. Should we reduce the quantity of medicinal herbs or purchase them from other places at a high price?"
"What's going on? How come we can't buy any herbs? There are people collecting herbs all around here, how is it possible that we can't buy any herbs?"
Qian Xinxin looked at the shopkeeper in confusion and asked, "Did they raise the price? Or did they sell it to someone else? Have you checked it out?"
"When I found out that I couldn't buy the herbs, I went to investigate. The herbal farmers nearby have indeed not gone up the mountain to collect herbs recently. They said that a particularly powerful monster appeared in the deep mountains and ate many people who went up the mountain to collect herbs. So they dare not go up the mountain to collect herbs anymore."
"A monster appeared in the deep mountains?"
Qian Xinxin, Yang Kun and Qi Ming looked at each other, and then asked, "What kind of monster is it?"
"How would I know? I asked the herbal farmers, but they couldn't explain clearly. Those who saw clearly were eaten. I am just an ordinary person, so how could I dare to investigate what kind of monster it was?"
Qian Xinxin pondered for a while, then said: "It's really not your fault. Since the amount of medicinal materials purchased is not large, you can reduce the amount of medicinal materials first, but the price should also be reduced relatively."
"Yes, yes, but if we don't get rid of this monster, I'm afraid our medicinal materials business will be affected. Unless we go somewhere else to buy medicinal materials at a high price, you see..."
The shopkeeper glanced at Yang Kun and Qi Ming, who both had extraordinary temperaments, and whispered to Qian Xinxin, "Why don't we ask these two immortals to investigate? Think of a way to get rid of the monster?"
Qian Xinxin thought about it and felt that since she, Yang Kun, and Qi Ming were going to the mountains to look for herbs anyway, it would be better to find out what kind of monster it was and capture it when the time comes. So Qian Xinxin nodded and said, "I'll take care of it. Your task is to stabilize the normal operation of the shop first. As for the herbs, just do as I say and we'll come back from the mountain and do other things."
