Chapter 308 New identity, new life

At sunset.

Jiangdong River.

Two women emerged from the water. The silk cheongsams they wore stuck to their bodies. They seemed waterproof. As soon as they left the water, not a single drop of water remained on them.

When the two women arrived at the shore, their originally wet black hair was now as dry as their cheongsams, without a single drop of water.

One of them was a woman wearing a white embroidered cheongsam and a pearl shawl. She had a round, dignified, pretty face, a graceful figure, and a calm and composed gaze.

Another woman wearing a bright red cheongsam and a blood-red waistcoat, had delicate features and picturesque eyebrows and eyes, but her face and figure were thin, her complexion was pale, and her eyes were cold and sinister.

After the two women got ashore, they looked around and saw that there was no one around, and they breathed a sigh of relief.

The woman in the red skirt spoke first:

"You can run away on your own. If you follow me, neither of us can escape."

The woman in the white dress shook her head and said:

"You still have the strength to speak, so you might as well recover some strength quickly. If Qiu Shan catches up with us later, it will be a burden for me to escape with you."

"Humph, you don't allow me to eat humans, how can I recover my strength?"

The woman in the red dress seemed very dissatisfied with the woman in the white dress, and her tone was full of resentment.

The woman in the white dress didn't take this resentment seriously at all, but said indifferently:
"You are not allowed to eat people, but I didn't say you are not allowed to eat. I will go to the town ahead and buy you some food. Don't run around."

"I want to eat meat!"

Seeing her companion leave immediately, the woman in the red skirt quickly said:
"It's best to eat it raw."

"understood."

The woman in the white dress waved her hand, and then she used the skill of 'shrinking the earth into an inch'. In the blink of an eye, she disappeared from the sight of the woman in the red dress.

"Show off!"

The woman in the red dress watched the woman in the white dress leave, feeling a little envious and indignant, but she could only sit down angrily and meditate while she had time to recover her strength.

This meditation technique to restore vitality was taught to her by the woman in white dress.

After about an hour, the woman in the red dress finished her practice and looked at the sky. It was already full of stars, but the woman in the white dress still hadn't come back, which made her start to worry.

Fortunately, after a while, she saw a white shadow swaying in the distance, and hurried over, only to find that it was her companion.

"Si Teng, what are you doing here?"

The woman in the white dress was Si Teng. She was holding a food box and fighting with a dozen black shadows. When she saw the woman in the red dress coming over, she quickly reminded her, "When I left the town, I was targeted by these beasts. You should be careful."

"Turns out they are some shit-eating creatures!"

Seeing that Si Teng was having a hard time dealing with more than a dozen wild dogs, the woman in the red skirt couldn't help but beam with joy and stood aside, teasing:

"Si Teng, you have followed Master Qingtianshu for hundreds of years. You can't be unable to deal with a beast like this, right?"

Si Teng was teased by the woman in the red skirt, and immediately became angry and said:

"Chishan, don't be so vain. These guys grew up in the mass graves and have long since become mountain goblins and monsters. If you have the guts, come and do it."

"I'll do it, I'll do it!"

The woman in the red skirt was Chishan who had transformed into a human. She argued with Si Teng for a few words, but then smiled and changed into her original form. A fly agaric more than ten feet high directly covered the dozen wild dogs that had turned into spirits. The vines fell on the wild dogs, and the wild dogs whimpered a few times and fell to the ground.

“Don’t eat them!”

When Si Teng saw Chi Shan killing the wild dog, she quickly told her, "Just kill it, don't eat it!"

"Don't worry, I, Chishan, don't eat everything."

Chishan really wanted to enjoy a delicious meal just now, but being stared at by Si Teng, he could only swallow a few mouthfuls of saliva secretly and stopped looking at the stray dog ​​on the ground:

"Where's the food you bought in town? My stomach is growling with hunger."

"it's here."

Si Teng shook the food box in her hand and handed it to Chi Shan: "They are all meat, including roast duck, roast chicken, and pork head. They are all what you like to eat."

"I like to eat raw meat, why did you buy these cooked foods?"

Chishan was somewhat dissatisfied, but he could only complain.

When she opened the lunch box, she saw that it was full of cooked food without any raw meat. Chishan wanted to throw the lunch box away angrily, but her hungry stomach reminded her that if she didn't eat, she wouldn't be able to sleep well at night.

Si Teng looked at Chishan's roar, but reminded him calmly:

"Chishan, if you continue to eat raw food and drink blood, the evil spirit in your body will never be hidden. In this case, you will never be able to enter the human settlement in your lifetime." Yes, entering the human settlement is the goal of the two.

Chishan sighed and had no choice but to open the food box and slowly chew the strange-tasting cooked food.

With the help of starlight, Si Teng began to sit cross-legged in meditation to restore her energy.

She has been doing this ever since she left Dana Mountain, not wasting a single minute of time practicing.

After finally finishing dinner, Chishan also imitated Si Teng and sat cross-legged in meditation.

However, she had only been learning this practice for a short time, and after only meditating for an hour or two to restore her energy, she could no longer bear the sleepiness and fell asleep on the ground.

Before going to sleep, Chishan did not forget to curse the enemy who was chasing him:

"Hmph, when we find Lord Qingtianshu, I will definitely make that hill look bad!"

The Sky-reaching Tree, um, Su Mingzhe has changed his identity.

Now he looks like a young man, lives in Yuhang City, and runs a pharmaceutical company.

After a busy day at work, he returned to his residence and came to the back garden, which was where Si Teng's real body was newly buried.

With a wave of his hand, Su Mingzhe asked the surrounding guards to disperse. He directly transformed into his original form, the Towering Tree, with his roots digging into the soil, and used his own vitality to silently nourish Si Teng's true body in the soil.

It would take about a hundred years for Si Teng, who was originally in a deep sleep, to recover.

Now Su Mingzhe can reduce the time by about half by using his Yuan Qi nourishment every day.

All night until dawn.

Su Mingzhe transformed into a human form again, washed up, had breakfast, and asked the four Kara guards, Mei, Orchid, Bamboo and Chrysanthemum, to help him look after the house. Then he went out to work again.

It is said that the capital is big and it is not easy to live there.

Su Mingzhe's house covers an area of ​​more than one hundred acres, and there are more than one hundred guards and a large number of staff members.

To support such a large family, Su Mingzhe must work hard to make money.

Fortunately, in the 20s, the whole world was in an economic crisis.

And crisis also represents opportunity.

It can be said that it is the right time for Su Mingzhe to take advantage of the chaos and fish in troubled waters.

From a global perspective, there is government manipulation.

Su Mingzhe didn't worry about it for the time being.

From a local perspective, Su Mingzhe lives in Yuhang City next to the West Lake, which is a place of great wealth and outstanding people.

No matter what industry Su Mingzhe wants to work in, he will have some convenience.

After several rounds of selection, Su Mingzhe chose to work in the pharmaceutical industry.

As a member of the Kara tribe, they have a natural advantage in forests and medicinal materials.

It would be a waste of talent if I didn’t work in the pharmaceutical industry.

Soon, relying on his relationship with the government and the connections of the Kara tribe, Su Mingzhe opened a pharmaceutical company which became popular in the market.

It was also the right time for Su Mingzhe to start a pharmaceutical company. Foreign research on penicillin had not yet been completed, and Su Mingzhe invented penicillin in advance.

Penicillin has become popular all over the world since it was launched on the market.

Su Mingzhe's factory price is only one dollar per bottle, but the hospital sells it directly for five dollars, making four times the profit.

In some underdeveloped areas, the black market price in the West is directly equivalent to gold and silver.

Su Mingzhe doesn't care about these things at all. He is only responsible for manufacturing and all sales issues are left to the partners.

Su Mingzhe then invented artemisinin for the treatment of malaria.

Although artemisinin is not as widely used as penicillin in the market, it is still a life-saving drug.

With penicillin and artemisinin as two main products, Su Mingzhe's promotion of smallpox vaccine was much smoother.

Seeked by outsiders and praised by people in the industry.

However, Su Mingzhe turned a blind eye and a deaf ear to all this. He invented these medicines not only to cure diseases and save lives, but also to make a living.

With such a reputation, the conflict between the Kara tribe and the Xuanshi could be eased.
