Chapter 28: Zhang Sanfeng: Shaolin Bald Donkeys, Lacking Martial Virtue

Inside the gourmet shop.

"Gurgle... gurgle..."

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

Then, with excited hands, they tremblingly picked up the watermelon juice in front of them.

They carefully brought it toward their mouths.

Just as Abbot Xuan Ci and Xuan Ji were about to taste the watermelon juice.

Yue Buqun and Tang San were both staring intently.

Yue Buqun wanted to see the effects of the watermelon juice; if it was good, he would have a glass too.

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

As for having a glass himself!

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

After ordering a round just now, he only had two hundred and some taels left.

He couldn't even afford to eat a few more times.

If he ordered watermelon juice too, he feared he would be bankrupt by the next time he came!

Therefore, Tang San was purely preparing for the future.

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

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

Abbot Xuan Ci and Xuan Ji also raised their heads and took a large sip of the watermelon juice!

As the watermelon juice entered their mouths, a sweet, fruity fragrance immediately surged into their bodies.

At this moment, Abbot Xuan Ci and Xuan Ji felt as if their souls had been baptized.

The fatigue brought on by their advanced age actually faded away significantly.

In an instant, Abbot Xuan Ci and Xuan Ji understood the function of the watermelon juice.

It seemed as if a voice in their hearts was telling them.

Their lifespans had increased!

In an instant, Abbot Xuan Ci and Xuan Ji were both stunned, dumbfounded.

Yue Buqun and Tang San, who had been observing the two, were baffled to see them freeze after just one sip.

Tang San’s Purple Demon Eye was pushed to its limit, yet he still could not detect the slightest change.

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

The thought had barely surfaced in his mind before Tang San shook his head and dismissed it.

Beef noodles worth fifty taels of gold could significantly enhance a person's strength.

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

He thought to himself, yet Tang San could not discern what the effect of the watermelon juice was.

On the other side, Abbot Xuan Ci and Xuan Ji, after a brief moment of shock, came back to their senses.

At this moment, their eyes gleamed with intensity as they stared at the watermelon juice, then finished it in one gulp without hesitation.

As the sweet, fruity fragrance entered their bodies and the feeling of soul-cleansing returned, Abbot Xuan Ci and Xuan Ji both enjoyed it with smiles on their faces.

Feeling their lifespans increase, they were ecstatic.

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

No matter how formidable one's internal energy was, there would eventually come a day when one's life reached its end!

But this watermelon juice, by increasing their lifespan, gave them hope for immortality!

Even if they had to trade a hundred years of internal energy for it, they wouldn't be willing!

Having finished the entire glass of watermelon juice, both Xuan Ci and Xuan Ji seemed to know exactly how much their lifespans had increased.

One glass of watermelon juice, three years of life!

In an instant, the two were excited.

A mere hundred taels of gold could actually be exchanged for three years of life.

If it were ten thousand taels of gold, wouldn't that be three hundred years of life?

And if it were one hundred thousand taels of gold, wouldn't that be three thousand years of life directly!

At this moment, Abbot Xuan Ci and Xuan Ji both seemed to see the day when they would achieve longevity!

"Two gentlemen, how does this watermelon juice taste?"

Seeing that Abbot Xuan Ci and Xuan Ji had been giggling ever since they finished the watermelon juice.

Yue Buqun couldn't hold back and asked directly.

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

Just sitting here giggling is making him very anxious!

As Yue Buqun asked, Zhang Sanfeng and Song Yuanqiao, who were nearby, also looked over.

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

Instead, they had started eating properly from 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 and watermelon juice.

Although Zhang Sanfeng and Song Yuanqiao had them, it didn't stop them from wanting to hear about the effects of the watermelon juice first.

For a moment, everyone's gaze was cast upon Xuan Ci and Xuan Ji.

However, Abbot Xuan Ci and Xuan Ji, who were being watched by everyone, did not speak.

Instead, they turned their gaze toward Tang San.

"Young friend, this old monk is willing to pay one thousand taels of gold to purchase your share of the watermelon juice. I wonder if you are willing!"

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

Once these words were spoken, Yue Buqun, Zhang Sanfeng, Song Yuanqiao, and the others were all stunned.

Especially Yue Buqun, who hadn't ordered the watermelon juice; he ordered a glass from Su Mu almost without hesitation.

Those Shaolin bald donkeys are at it again!

Abbot Xuan Ci seemed to have said nothing.

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

The effect of the watermelon juice was absolutely beyond their imagination.

Otherwise, that old bald donkey, Abbot Xuan Ci, would not be acting like this!

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 lifetimes.

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

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

And all this information pointed to one thing.

That watermelon juice was absolutely important!

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

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

He secretly used sound transmission to tell Tang San the effect of the watermelon juice directly.

At this moment, only he and his senior brother Xuan Ji knew the effect of the watermelon juice.

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

But to Tang San, it seemed average.

Missing out on a glass or two of watermelon juice didn't make much of a difference at Tang San's age.

Instead, taking this opportunity to exchange it for money was the most important thing.

Sure enough, upon hearing Xuan Ci's sound transmission, Tang San was stunned for a moment.

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

He never imagined that the effect of the watermelon juice was actually this!

Lifespan—this kind of ethereal thing—was actually sold here by the immortal!

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

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

For him, missing out on a glass or two of lifespan was indeed inconsequential.

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

As for raising the price, Tang San gave up on that directly.

They were all people with 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 most of their watermelon juice and understood its effect.

At this moment, even Zhang Sanfeng, who had always been calm and composed, had his defenses broken!

Shaolin bald donkeys, they have no martial virtue!
