~9 min read 1,690 words

Swish!

The crowd coming and going around them stopped instantly.

Everyone's eyes focused on Xu Que, their faces full of astonishment, and then they shook their heads one after another, even carrying a hint of mockery.

Er Yue Hong of the Exploding Heaven Gang? Seeking medicine?

Brother, that's not how you seek medicine. You're just a Body Integration Stage cultivator standing under the Buddha tower shouting like that; how could the Buddha Master possibly pay attention to you?

"Who is making noise here?" At this time, a martial monk walked out of the Buddha tower. This time, it was finally a bald one, who looked relatively more like a monk!

Xu Que immediately cupped his hands and said politely, "I am Er Yue Hong of the Exploding Heaven Gang, here to seek medicine from the Buddha Master!"

"You should leave; the Buddha Master will not see you!" The martial monk frowned, shook his head, and turned to leave.

"Why won't he see me? Is the number bad or is the color bad? I can change it!" Xu Que asked immediately.

Before the martial monk could react, Xu Que raised his head again and shouted loudly, "Buddha Master, Er Yue Zi of the Exploding Heaven Gang has come to seek medicine! Buddha Master, Ba Yue Hong of the Exploding Heaven Gang has come to seek medicine! Buddha Master, Liu Yue Lü of the Exploding Heaven Gang..."

"Stop!" The martial monk immediately shouted to stop Xu Que, his face full of embarrassment. "It's not a problem of the number, nor is it a problem of the color. Do not make noise here! The Buddha Master has been worried for a long time recently and is busy with the Divine Pill Assembly. How could he have time to pay attention to you?"

"Divine Pill Assembly? What does that mean?" Xu Que asked in astonishment.

Even Jiang Hongyan was slightly curious, her gaze sweeping toward the bald martial monk.

The bald martial monk pressed his palms together and said in a low voice, "Amitabha! One must not discuss worldly dust before the Buddha. The two of you should enter the tower and talk!"

After saying this, he stretched out his arm and invited Xu Que and Jiang Hongyan into the Buddha tower!

The inside of the Buddha tower was also filled with incense smoke, with people coming and going. The bald martial monk led the two to the middle of the first level and stopped, saying in a low voice, "Since the two of you can find this place, you naturally understand the Buddha Master's rules! However, it is indeed not a good time to come today. The Buddha Master is now only focused on the Divine Pill Assembly two days from now, so during this period, he will only see alchemists; he will not see anyone else!"

"Oh? That's quite a coincidence. You might not believe it when I say it, but I am an alchemist!"

Xu Que was instantly happy. He was a full-career developer; let alone alchemy, even playing the zither, singing, refining talismans, and setting up arrays, he knew them all, it's just that he wasn't proficient in any of them!

"You are an alchemist?" The bald martial monk looked at Xu Que in surprise and hurriedly asked, "May I ask, what star-level alchemist are you, and do you have a pill formula for treating difficult and miscellaneous diseases of mortals?"

"I am a four-star alchemist. I treat eighty-year-old seniors and three-year-old bratty kids; I can treat any difficult and miscellaneous disease! Of course, except for gynecology!" Xu Que boasted without hesitation.

The bald martial monk frowned and shook his head slightly. "A four-star alchemist, I'm afraid that's not enough!"

Ouch, are you looking down on this King of Acting Cool?

This King of Acting Cool now has a million Acting Cool Points in hand. Let alone a mere four-star alchemist, even a nine-star one could be eaten out of a skill book!

Xu Que immediately widened his eyes and was about to speak.

Jiang Hongyan spoke softly, "May I ask why the Buddha Master is looking for alchemists? And for whom is the Divine Pill Assembly being held?"

"To tell you the truth, the Buddha Master's daughter has developed some strange disease. Not only the Buddha Master, but even many nine-star alchemists are at their wits' end, so the Buddha Master convened the Divine Pill Assembly to seek medicine from the world. The two of you have also seen that people are coming and going here, all here to deliver medicine!" The bald martial monk said, sighing slightly, seemingly feeling that this matter was tricky.

"Hiss!"

Xu Que gasped instantly. The Buddha Master has a daughter?

That's not right; how can a Buddhist monk have a daughter?

"The Little Buddha Girl is sick? How could this be?" At this time, Jiang Hongyan asked curiously.

The bald martial monk shook his head. "This is where the problem lies! You should all know that the Little Buddha Girl has a special constitution and cannot cultivate, so she usually consumes heavenly materials and earthly treasures found by the Buddha Master to prolong her life. But in the last few days, she hasn't been able to eat anything. Whether it's mountain delicacies, spirit pills, or ordinary food in the mortal world, she finds it hard to swallow. It can be said that she vomits whatever she eats!"

Speaking of this, the bald martial monk sighed again. "Sigh, after being tossed around for these few days, the Little Buddha Girl has become much more haggard. Seeing this, we all feel heartache!"

"There is such a strange disease?" Jiang Hongyan was slightly astonished.

Xu Que's eyes lit up, and he said in surprise, "What kind of strange disease is this? Isn't it just anorexia? What should you do if a child is picky and doesn't eat? Beat them... pfft, no, that's wrong. Just eat some digestive tablets!"

"Anorexia? Does the Daoist brother know this strange disease? And what are those digestive tablets?" The bald martial monk was instantly happy and hurriedly looked at Xu Que to ask.

Even Jiang Hongyan was slightly surprised, obviously not expecting Xu Que to understand this!

Xu Que smiled indifferently. "What don't I know? I even know the cause. It's because the things she eats every day are too good. After a long time, she gets tired of them, but it wasn't handled in time, leading to problems with her taste buds and digestive system, and maybe even a bit of psychological illness, eventually leading to anorexia! She can't eat anything, and even vomits whatever she eats!"

"Hiss!"

The bald martial monk was completely confused by what he heard, but he gasped in shock, feeling that it sounded very profound!

After all, Xu Que's analysis was logical and easy to convince people.

Including Jiang Hongyan, although she didn't understand words like digestive system and psychological illness, she roughly understood the cause of the disease by guessing!

"Daoist brother, do you really have a way to solve this disease?" The bald martial monk said excitedly.

Xu Que nodded and smiled. "That's right, I have a way to try, but you have to let me see the Buddha Master. After all, I am also here to seek medicine!"

"This..." The smile on the bald martial monk's face stiffened, and he touched his head, looking troubled. "To tell you the truth, the Buddha Master has personally gone to visit the Alchemy Demon Elder these few days, wanting to ask him to refine spirit medicine. This Divine Pill Assembly is almost entirely centered around the Alchemy Demon Elder! However, Daoist brother, rest assured, if you have a way to solve this disease, you can participate in the Divine Pill Assembly two days from now. If you can succeed, no matter what medicine you want to seek, the Buddha Master will definitely give it to you!"

"That won't do, I..." Xu Que widened his eyes immediately.

But before he could finish, he was gently pulled by Jiang Hongyan.

She smiled slightly, looked at the bald martial monk, and said, "We will sign up for the Divine Pill Assembly!"

"Amitabha, thank you, young lady. This monk will go and get the Divine Pill Token!" The bald martial monk was happy, pressed his palms together, bowed to Xu Que and Jiang Hongyan, and hurriedly turned to leave.

Xu Que then looked at Jiang Hongyan in confusion and asked, "Little girl, why did you pull me just now? What if he doesn't give the Immortal Hidden Grass after I cure his daughter?"

"Rest assured, I mentioned to you before that the Buddha Master has a strange temperament, one of which is that he keeps his word. Moreover, the Little Buddha Girl is his apple of the eye, more important than anything else, so..." Jiang Hongyan said with a smile.

But before she could finish, a brilliant light appeared in Xu Que's eyes, and a smile rose at the corners of his mouth. "So as long as I cure his daughter, let alone the Immortal Hidden Grass, even if I want him to help fight the Holy Emperor, it's no problem, right?"

Jiang Hongyan was startled, seemingly not having thought of this point.

If the Buddha Master were willing to take action, that would naturally be the best, and they wouldn't need to get the Immortal Hidden Grass at all!

"Two, the Divine Pill Token is here. Come to this place two days later! The Little Buddha Girl's illness will trouble the two of you!" At this time, the bald martial monk walked back, handing over a small wooden token with a number carved on it!

"Alright, see you in two days!" Xu Que picked up the wooden token, smiled, took Jiang Hongyan's hand, and turned to leave.

Divine Pill Assembly, right?

Anorexia, right?

This King of Acting Cool has already won!
