Chapter 95 The Soul Suppressing Division is Heaven
He had always kept Yang Feng's illness in mind, and since he had promised to treat him, he would definitely keep his word.
Upon entering the attic, an elderly man with a gentle smile greeted us.
"What would you like, sir?"
"I want a bottle of Golden Jade Bone-Regenerating Pill!" Lin Qing said calmly.
Before setting off, he specifically consulted the physicians within the Soul Suppression Division and was told that Yang Feng's injuries were treatable; he only needed to take the Golden Jade Bone-Regenerating Pill regularly for a period of time to fully recover.
"Come with me, is someone in your family with a broken bone?" The old man led Lin Qing upstairs, asking with a smile as they went.
"That's right. He broke his spine half a year ago. Although he can walk now, all his martial arts skills are ruined," Lin Qing said.
"A broken spine? What is this person's martial arts level?" the old man asked.
"Hidden Strength Martial Artist"
"Hidden strength? Sir, do you want him to be able to embark on the path of martial arts again?" the old man asked again.
"good."
"I'm afraid the Golden Jade Bone-Regenerating Pill won't work," the old man shook his head.
"What suggestions do you have, sir?" Lin Qing asked.
"The Golden Jade Bone-Regenerating Pill can only help people stand up, not restore them to their original state. To meet your requirements, you must take the Jade Bone Pill, which is of a higher quality," the old man said again.
"Then let's try another bottle of Jade Bone Pills." Lin Qing nodded slightly.
"Sir, you may not know this, but the Jade Bone Pill is an extremely rare and superior medicine. Unless you are a distinguished guest of my Golden Treasure Pavilion or an official of the Soul Suppression Division, you are not qualified to purchase this pill," the old man said calmly.
"Oh? How can I become a distinguished guest of Jinbaolou?" Lin Qing asked.
"It's simple. If you spend 10,000 taels of silver at my Jinbaolou within a year, you can become a distinguished guest!" the old man said with a smile.
Lin Qing immediately understood that from the moment he entered until now, the old man's seemingly caring chat had all been a ruse.
"Old man, you've got some clever schemes up your sleeve. Are you trying to get me to spend tens of thousands of taels of silver at your Golden Treasure Pavilion?" Lin Qing teased with a smile.
"Sir, have you finished speaking? I was merely telling the truth." The old man smiled.
Just then, a middle-aged man dressed in brocade robes and sporting a mustache walked over.
The old man glanced at them and said respectfully, "Greetings, Steward Wang."
The middle-aged man went straight to Lin Qing's side, a kind smile on his face: "Honorable guest, I'm so sorry for not greeting you properly. It's just a bottle of Jade Bone Pills, I'll give it to you. Elder Lin, please fetch a bottle!"
A strange light flashed in the old man's eyes as he looked at Lin Qing. He hadn't expected Manager Wang to offer a bottle of Jade Bone Pills so readily.
It should be noted that a single Jade Bone Pill is worth 240 taels of silver, and a bottle costs over a thousand taels of silver. Even for the wealthy and powerful Jinbaolou, this is no small sum.
Seeing that Lin Qing was dressed plainly, he was surprised to find out that Lin Qing had a different identity. His eyes immediately changed, and he became respectful.
"Yes, I'll go get it right away!"
A hint of doubt flashed in Lin Qing's eyes as he slowly said, "Manager Wang, I cannot accept a reward without merit. Why are you sending me these pills?"
"Young friend Lin is a newly promoted Golden Order officer of the Soul Suppression Division. Based on that alone, a bottle of Jade Bone Pill is nothing. Consider it as making friends," Manager Wang said with a smile.
"Then thank you very much, Steward Wang." Lin Qing cupped his hands in thanks.
He thought to himself, Jinbaolou is indeed well-informed. The assessment has only been over for a short time, and even a branch manager knows him.
A moment later, the old man brought out the Jade Bone Pill. Lin Qing cupped his hands and said, "I will remember Steward Wang's kindness. I'll be leaving now."
"Take care, young friend Lin," Manager Wang said with a smile.
Lin Qing got up and went out. Manager Wang sighed, "This young man has a bright future ahead of him."
Jin Ling, the constable, has a very high chance of becoming the head constable of the Soul Suppressing Division, or even a steward, in the future.
Even the taxi drivers were people that Jinbaolou didn't want to mess with.
He felt it was a worthwhile deal to exchange a bottle of Jade Bone Pill for the friendship of a future important figure.
Even if Lin Qing ultimately disappoints him, the loss is merely a bottle of Jade Bone Pills, which is really nothing to Jinbaolou.
...
Go home.
Lin Qing immediately sent a letter to his hometown in Jiangyin County, reporting his current situation to his relatives and friends so as not to worry them, and also sent the bottle of Jade Bone Pill back with him.
After doing all this, Lin Qing felt much more at ease.
His gaze swept across the table and he saw an invitation. The invitation had been sent by the Luo family three days ago, saying that they would be hosting a banquet for him at Sanhualou. He was hesitating whether or not to go.
With a creak, the door was suddenly pushed open, and Wang Ling stepped inside.
"Lord Wang, please sit down!" Lin Qing immediately stood up.
Wang Ling nodded slightly and took out a square box from his pocket, placing it on the table beside him.
"This is a Bone-Removing Pill, which can improve the quality of a martial artist's Yin Bones. Yours is of low quality, but it can be improved to medium quality."
"Thank you, sir!" Lin Qing said.
"The Black Dragon Gang has been destroyed. However, Song Heilong was rescued by Deng Qianyu, the demoness of the Yin Yuan Sect. The Soul Suppression Division is currently hunting him down throughout the city. The city will be extremely turbulent during this period, so you must be careful," Wang Ling added.
"Yes, sir. By the way, there's something I'm hesitant about lately..."
As Lin Qing spoke, he recounted the story of the Luo family sending out invitations and the five shops.
After listening, Wang Ling remained calm and composed: "There's nothing to hesitate about. You can go to the Luo family's banquet if you want, or not if you don't. You are a member of the Soul Suppressing Division, and you also have the golden token I gave you. The Luo family wouldn't dare to do anything to you."
As for those five shops, according to the rules, what is rightfully yours should be taken back. I'll help you with that; the five shops will be in your hands soon. You just need to focus on practicing martial arts.”
"Understood, sir!" Lin Qing nodded. He once again felt how powerful the Town Soul Division of the Prefecture was, completely disregarding even the top-tier families of the Prefecture.
"Remember, in the prefectural city, the Soul Suppressing Division is the only authority. Jiangyin County is an exception. At least on the surface, you don't need to fear any force. If anyone dares to bully others, I won't hesitate to destroy them!" Wang Ling said coldly.
"Yes." Lin Qing felt more at ease. Sure enough, having a powerful backer makes all the difference.
Wang Ling didn't say anything more and turned to leave.
Lin Qing immediately swallowed the Bone-Removing Pill.
In an instant, he felt a chill all over his body, followed by a sharp, tingling sensation.
After a while, the strange feeling quickly faded away. Lin Qing opened his eyes and did not feel anything particularly strong. However, the panel showed that the quality of his Yin Bone had changed from low to medium.
"My ability to resist the impact of evil energy should have greatly improved now," Lin Qing thought to himself.
The quality of Yin bones does not directly increase combat power, nor does it cause a martial artist's physique to undergo a transformation, so it is normal not to feel anything.
It was afternoon.
Lin Qing was practicing the Tathagata Fist in the courtyard, his punches and kicks whistling through the air.
After supplementing the training methods, the Tathagata Fist Scripture has become even more complex. Fortunately, he has an exceptional talent for fist techniques, so his progress is not too slow. Both his combat skills and martial arts realm are steadily advancing.
He figured that even if he couldn't directly copy the Tathagata Fist Manual, he could still reach the Embracing Dan Strength level within a year by practicing step by step, and he might even achieve a minor success in the combat realm of the Tathagata Fist Manual.
A year is theoretically not slow, but having gotten used to using the Rebirth Record to quickly break through, he still felt it was too slow.
"If my martial arts talent can break through, then the learning time will be greatly shortened," Lin Qing thought to himself.
However, while there are many corpses carrying martial arts talent attributes, most of them are quite ordinary. It's rare to find one in a hundred, let alone one in ten thousand.
