Chapter 46

With a slight sense of guilt towards the protagonist and the overwhelming gratitude from the blacksmith, Qi Feng came out of the blacksmith's shop. The money in the armored car behind him had already decreased by nearly half.

However, Qi Feng was not at all worried about running out of money. The equipment in Dali City was already top-notch in the Immortal Sword realm. It was important to know that the stock in the game shops was not infinite like in real games. Just the three Golden Silkworm Kings alone had already made Qi Feng want to spit blood. Why was it that the one thing he lacked was this? He still had over a million coins, and he didn't know where to spend them.

Of course, the pharmacy in Dali City was also a must-visit. However, compared to the insect shop, weapon shop, and blacksmith, the pharmacy in Dali had nothing particularly surprising. There were the Snow Lotus Seeds, Spirit Mountain Immortal Grass, and Purple Jade Lotus Ointment mentioned by Han Yixian, as well as the Spirit Gourd Immortal Pill. That was about it.

Even the famous Super Blue Bottle—Heavenly Immortal Jade Dew—and the on-the-spot full health recovery potion—Heavenly Fragrance Life Continuation Dew—were not available. Qi Feng was truly a bit disappointed. It seemed he would have to try his luck at the pharmacy in the capital. Speaking of which, could these two items only be obtained by defeating monsters and opening treasure chests? If so, that would be a real shame. Although the Soul Reviving Incense and Snow Lotus Seeds could basically replace the functions of these two items, just hearing the name "Heavenly Immortal Jade Dew" gave a sense of ethereal beauty, and it sounded like it would be quite delicious. Qi Feng really wanted to get a few bottles, even if just for the sake of collecting them.

The shops in the Immortal Sword world were truly numerous, comparable to a large shopping mall. It seemed impossible to visit them all in one go. Qi Feng felt it was better to leave some for the next time. After all, he had already bought everything Han Yixian had instructed, and he had basically put together a set of equipment, which was a significant gain.

Qi Feng took off his shoes and put on the newly bought Dragon Scale Boots. They fit well, and he ran a few steps on the ground. Surprisingly, the elasticity, grip, and comfort were even better than his own pair of Qiao Sixiang shoes! After all, these were limited edition handmade leather boots with movement attribute bonuses! Even if he had bought them with fake copper coins for 20,000, it would still be equivalent to 5,000 RMB. However, with these dragon skin and scale boots, he shouldn't have to worry about wear and tear, as he could wear out two pairs of regular sneakers in a year.

He put on the Heavenly Silkworm Treasure Robe, replacing his woolen sweater. Since Qi Feng was no longer afraid of the cold, he didn't care if the silk robe provided any warmth. Although the style was a front-opening design, he managed to put it on properly. He then put on the Ghost Needle Helmet, wrapped himself in the Phoenix Patterned Cloak, and took out the Ghost Head Blade from the weapon shop...

Well, whether it was real or just his imagination, after putting on a set of top-tier equipment, Qi Feng didn't feel any significant changes, but his aura seemed different. However, the equipment in the Immortal Sword world generally only enhanced attack and defense, with no attribute boosts. It was a pity that he couldn't find anyone to stab him to test the defense.

Qi Feng took out his phone and snapped a photo of himself. Looking at it, he immediately decided not to go out in this outfit. He quickly took it off and put it in his inventory. It seemed more practical to wait for his original artist-designed Pure Yang Daoist Robe or Heavenly Silkworm Silk Underwear. The mismatched and varied styles of the current outfit just looked awkward.

He kept the Dragon Scale Boots on his feet and took out the Heaven and Earth Mirror, which he hung on his waist, though it looked a bit strange. He put it in his pocket like his phone, treating it as an accessory. He wasn't sure if this would have any effect.

Dragging the armored car back, he returned to Han Yixian's house. He had bought the medicine, but it was better to consult Han Yixian on how to use it. Although Qi Feng thought that eating more of these health and mana recovery items shouldn't be fatal, anything could happen. If he caused any harm to Yan Yufeng, Su Meimei would definitely blame him. Besides, Yan Yufeng was a second-generation, and the media would be full of headlines like "College Student Practicing Medicine Without a License Kills Classmate." The click rate for such a headline would be explosive. His life would be over, and he would have to hide in the Yue Lai Inn every day.

Entering the clinic, Han Yixian was not there, but a beautifully dressed ancient-style girl came out to greet... cough... receive patients. "Are you here to see my father for treatment?... You'll have to wait a moment; my father is currently taking a patient's pulse inside."

Oh, this must be Han Yixian's daughter, Han Mengci, if he remembered correctly. However, it didn't seem polite to ask a girl's name in ancient times.

Speaking of Han Yixian's daughter, Qi Feng had a clear impression of her. Cough, it wasn't because she was pretty (in the game), but because her luck was truly bad.

Her fiancé went to invite a high (demon) monk from Jade Buddha Temple to deal with a zombie problem and was hypnotized into becoming a monk at the temple. She herself picked up the unconscious Zhao Ling'er on the road and was subsequently targeted by the Miao people who wanted to capture Zhao Ling'er. They kidnapped her to lure Zhao Ling'er into a trap. To save her, Zhao Ling'er was taken away by the Miao people, and even Li Xiaoyao, with his protagonist aura, was nearly killed and lay on the ground, eyes rolling.

Could this type be the legendary "Sweeping Broom Star"? Qi Feng involuntarily took a few steps back. Although his luck was "beyond the three realms and not part of the five elements" (as said by the fortune teller in Suzhou), he was still afraid of being implicated.

Well, since Han Yixian was taking a patient's pulse inside, he would wait. Usually, patients were treated in the hall, so was this patient so sick that they couldn't sit up and had to lie in bed? "Could it be..." Qi Feng suddenly thought.

"Hey, Miss Han, did you pick up someone outside?" Qi Feng asked tentatively.

"Ya?" Han Mengci was startled and quickly asked, "Do you know that girl?"

Qi Feng slapped his leg; he had guessed correctly. Han Mengci had indeed picked up Zhao Ling'er, who was lying inside. Of course, he knew her. He had even taken a photo with her.

"Oh, I know her. Zhao Ling'er is a... uh... friend of mine." They should be considered friends, right? What else could he say? That he was her fan? That he controlled her husband? That he was... well, being friends made the most sense. After all, they had worked together recently, and if he hadn't rushed back to his dorm, they might have even had a meal together.

Han Mengci looked at Qi Feng with an indescribable expression and said softly, "Then come in with me."

Qi Feng didn't think much and followed her into a side room.

Han Yixian was sitting by the bed, one hand on the pulse, the other stroking his beard, eyes closed in deep thought. When he heard Qi Feng and Han Mengci enter, he opened his eyes. Seeing Qi Feng, he frowned and said, "Hey! This is a girl's ward. You, who are neither a doctor nor a relative, shouldn't be so presumptuous."

Qi Feng leaned over and saw that the person lying there was indeed Zhao Ling'er. Her face was pale, and she seemed to be in a deep coma. Hearing Han Yixian's reprimand, he quickly waved his hands, "Misunderstanding, misunderstanding. I know this girl and came to check on her."

"Oh? What a coincidence?" Han Yixian said indifferently, "What is this girl's name and where is she from?"

Well, Qi Feng knew this for sure and confidently replied, "This girl's name is Zhao Ling'er. She is from... um, Immortal Spirit Island in Yuhang County, but her hometown is far away, in Yunnan. Her background... is a bit complicated."

"Ah..." Han Yixian nodded and asked, "Why was this girl found unconscious on the road?"

"Um..." Qi Feng was a bit stuck. He knew the reason, but he couldn't say that Zhao Ling'er had transformed into a snake spirit in Suzhou and run all the way here. After some thought, since Han Yixian had already taken her pulse and knew her condition, he decided to be vague: "She... was pregnant and ran away..." Cough, this was a delicate matter to explain!

"Ha ha!" Han Yixian suddenly laughed coldly, "You know she's pregnant? And you don't take responsibility for it?!" He started looking for something, saying, "I'll beat you, you heartless scoundrel!"

"What?" Qi Feng was struck by a bolt of lightning, "I didn't do it!" Was he being framed or forced to be a father?!
