Chapter 28: Zhang Sanfeng: Shaolin Bald Donkey, No Martial Virtue

~8 min read 1,416 words

Inside the gourmet shop

"Gurgle... gurgle..."

Abbot Xuan Ci and Monk Xuanji swallowed their saliva, calming the surging internal energy within their bodies.

Then, with trembling hands, they picked up the watermelon juice before them.

Carefully, they brought it toward their mouths.

Just as Abbot Xuan Ci and Monk Xuanji were about to taste the watermelon juice,

Yue Buqun and Tang San both stared fixedly.

Yue Buqun wanted to see the effect of the watermelon juice; if it was good, he would order a cup too.

As for Tang San, he was purely observing the effect of the watermelon juice.

As for ordering a cup for himself!

Didn't he see that he was so poor he only had three hundred taels of gold?

After ordering a batch just now, only over two hundred taels remained.

He couldn't even afford to eat many more times.

If he ordered watermelon juice again, he feared that by the next visit, he would be bankrupt!

So, Tang San was purely preparing for the future.

If he couldn't afford to eat, couldn't he at least watch the effect on others first?

For a moment, watched by Yue Buqun and Tang San,

Abbot Xuan Ci and Monk Xuanji both raised their heads and took a large gulp of the watermelon juice!

The moment the watermelon juice entered their mouths, the fresh, sweet fruit fragrance instantly surged into their bodies.

In that instant, Abbot Xuan Ci and Monk Xuanji felt as though their souls had been baptized.

Because of their advanced age, the fatigue brought upon their bodies had actually receded significantly.

In a flash, Abbot Xuan Ci and Monk Xuanji understood the effect of the watermelon juice.

It seemed a voice within their hearts was telling them,

Their lifespans had increased!

In an instant, Abbot Xuan Ci and Monk Xuanji both froze, utterly stunned.

Yue Buqun and Tang San, who had been observing Abbot Xuan Ci and Monk Xuanji, saw them take just one sip and then freeze, leaving them bewildered.

Tang San's Purple Ultimate Demon Eye was even activated to its utmost, yet he still detected not the slightest change.

"Could it be that the watermelon juice has no effect?"

The thought had just arisen in his mind when Tang San shook his head and rejected it.

The beef noodles, worth fifty taels of gold, could greatly enhance a person's strength.

How could the watermelon juice, worth one hundred taels of gold, have no effect!

He thought inwardly, but Tang San still could not discern what the effect of the watermelon juice was.

On the other side, after a brief moment of daze, Abbot Xuan Ci and Monk Xuanji came to their senses.

At this moment, both of them had bright light in their eyes; they stared fixedly at the watermelon juice and then, without hesitation, drained it in one gulp.

The fresh, sweet fruit fragrance entered their bodies, and the sensation of soul purification reappeared; Abbot Xuan Ci and Monk Xuanji both enjoyed it with smiles on their faces.

Experiencing the increase in their lifespans, both of them were simply ecstatic in their hearts.

Compared to the beef noodles before, this watermelon juice was, for them, a heavenly gift.

No matter how formidable the internal energy, there would eventually come a day of death!

But this watermelon juice, which increased their lifespan, allowed them to see hope for immortality!

Even if they had to exchange a hundred years of internal energy for it, they would not be willing!

After drinking the cup of watermelon juice completely, whether Abbot Xuan Ci or Monk Xuanji, both seemed to know the lifespan they had gained.

One cup of watermelon juice, three years of lifespan!

In a flash, both of them were excited.

A mere one hundred taels of gold could actually exchange for three years of lifespan.

If it were ten thousand taels of gold, would that not exchange for three hundred years of lifespan?

Then if it were one hundred thousand taels of gold, would that not directly grant three thousand years of life?

In that moment, Abbot Xuan Ci and Monk Xuanji both seemed to see the day of their eternal longevity!

"Two of you, how does the watermelon juice taste?"

Seeing Abbot Xuan Ci and Monk Xuanji, who had been smiling foolishly since finishing the watermelon juice just now,

Yue Buqun could not hold back and directly asked.

What exactly is the effect? You two should say something!

Just smiling foolishly here is making him very anxious!

As Yue Buqun asked, Zhang Sanfeng and Song Yuanqiao on the side also looked over.

The two of them had not followed Yue Buqun and Abbot Xuan Ci.

Instead, they proceeded properly, starting with the egg fried rice.

At this moment, they had just finished the egg fried rice and the braised egg.

They had not yet tasted the beef noodles or the watermelon juice.

Although Zhang Sanfeng and Song Yuanqiao had the means, it did not hinder them from listening to the effect of the watermelon juice first.

For a moment, everyone's gaze turned toward Abbot Xuan Ci and Monk Xuanji.

However, Abbot Xuan Ci and Monk Xuanji, watched by everyone, did not speak.

Instead, his gaze turned to Tang San at that very moment.

"Young friend, this old monk is willing to offer a thousand taels of gold to purchase your share of the watermelon juice. I wonder if the young friend would be willing!"

Abbot Xuan Ci did not ask Yue Buqun and the others, but spoke directly to Tang San.

The moment these words were spoken, Yue Buqun, Zhang Sanfeng, Song Yuanqiao, and the others were all taken aback.

Especially Yue Buqun, who had not ordered watermelon juice, almost without hesitation, ordered a cup for Su Mu.

Those bald Shaolin donkeys are at it again!

Abbot Xuan Ci seemed to have said nothing.

But for Yue Buqun and the others, he had already said everything!

The effect of the watermelon juice absolutely surpassed their expectations.

Otherwise, this old bald donkey, Abbot Xuan Ci, would not act this way!

At this moment, if it were an ordinary person, they might have already agreed.

But Abbot Xuan Ci was facing Tang San, who had lived two lives.

After merely a moment of thought, Tang San prepared to refuse.

Abbot Xuan Ci's actions and Yue Buqun's reaction gave Tang San a great deal of information.

And all of this information pointed to one thing.

That watermelon juice was absolutely very important!

"Young friend, do not rush to refuse. I can offer three thousand taels of gold, and I will also tell you the effect of the watermelon juice. You may consider it!"

Seeming to see that Tang San was about to refuse, how could this old fox, Abbot Xuan Ci, possibly give up?

He secretly transmitted his voice, directly telling Tang San the effect of the watermelon juice.

At this moment, only he and Senior Brother Xuanji knew the effect of the watermelon juice.

And this effect might be very important to him and to Zhang Sanfeng.

But for Tang San, it seemed merely ordinary.

Missing one or two servings of watermelon juice made little difference for someone of Tang San's age.

Instead, exchanging it for some money was the most important thing of all.

Indeed, upon hearing Abbot Xuan Ci's voice transmission, Tang San was stunned for a moment.

He stared blankly at the watermelon juice in front of Zhang Sanfeng nearby, speechless and foolish.

He never expected that the effect of the watermelon juice would be this!

Lifespan, such a vague and ethereal thing, is also sold by the immortals!

Taking a deep breath, Tang San gradually came to his senses.

Looking at Abbot Xuan Ci's request now, Tang San pondered for a moment and immediately agreed.

Lifespan, for him, was indeed a matter of little consequence if missed once or twice.

Compared to three thousand taels of gold, this was clearly what Tang San needed.

As for raising the price, Tang San simply gave up.

They were all people of immortal fate; there was no need to offend someone over such a small amount of money.

Just as Tang San nodded in agreement, Zhang Sanfeng and Song Yuanqiao on the other side.

Had already drunk more than half of the watermelon juice and understood its effect.

At this moment, even Zhang Sanfeng, who had always been calm and composed, broke down!

Those bald Shaolin donkeys have no martial ethics!
