Chapter 183 - Friends

“Three leaves of Lan Ping plant mixed with Tiger-Tooth weed can detoxify the miasma of hundreds of years old Peach Flowers.”

“Blue Edge Chinese Flowering Crabapple as the basic remedy, coordinated with Heart-burning Blossoms and Seven-Star Peach Seed can whiten and rejuvenate the skin.”

“A hundred grams of Red Frost Stone as the medicinal usher, added to the liquid that is gained by mashing thousand and five hundred grams of large centipedes, coordinated with seven kinds of rare plants can easily drive evil Spirit Snakes away.”

Ji Hao was holding his hands behind his back as he was walking along a broad path, slowly shaking his head while reciting a few new recipes that he had learned from Wulong Yao.

He had already thoroughly memorized countless basic knowledge of herbal medicines and prescriptions of magical medicines. However, almost every master Magi tutor like Wulong Yao possessed their own secret, special knowledge system, which they wouldn’t easily impart to ordinary apprentices. They would only do so with very talented, valued and apprentices they trusted, like Ji Hao.

Currently, Ji Hao was learning some special and advanced magical medicinal cooking skills from Wulong Yao. After being cooked with those secret skills and magic spells, some combination of herbal medicines that seemed nothing special, would turn into magical and powerful magic medicines.

Apart from Wulong Kui, Ji Hao had also begun learning advanced skills and knowledge of all kinds of subjects, from Mi Qingkong and other master Magi tutors. More magical and complicated knowledge, more consummate skills and cleverer combinations of all kinds of materials. During these couple of days, Ji Hao had been learning all those new things too excitedly, causing his vitality to be nearly depleted.

While walking back to his room, Ji Hao was murmuring about those prescriptions all the way. When he saw his room right in the front of him, he heard Taisi’s voice.

“Have a drink with me? I have no time!”

“Why have I never found you all so friendly when I was still a waste of a man?”

“Ha, look at yourselves! Your faces are like broken melons, like the field mouths! How dare you even think about being with Shaosi?!”

“Although Shaosi is mean and fierce, and has never shown me, her big brother, any respect…but, no matter what, she is my blood little sister, and is as pretty as a blooming flower. You, all of you, do you really think that you are good enough for her?”

“Piss off! Don’t you enrage me! Or you will so regret!”

Taisi’s angry voice woke Ji Hao up from the ocean of new and magical prescriptions. He shook his head and turned his head to where the voice was coming from.

A few boys, who were wearing coarse clothes and sharp swords, seemed to have blocked Taisi’s path. They had circled around him, and were talking to him in low voices. Taisi’s hollow face seemed terrible darkened, and his small head was shaking continuously. In the meanwhile, he was yelling at the few boys with bitter and sarcastic words.

A handsome boy, who had silver cold light beams flashing across his pupils from time to time, abruptly shouted out, “Taisi, do not be so shameless! You have already offended the Southern Wasteland Society, if you offend our White Tiger Society as well, both you and Shaosi cannot possibly end well!”

Taisi raised his slim, vague and decurrent eyebrows while simultaneously raising his head. He brought his small, hollow, pale face near the face of the boy, after which he used his left hand to slap hard against his own thin and slim neck that looked like the neck of a duck. While doing so, he yelled, “Huh? Are you threatening me?! Come on! Pull that sword of yours out and chop my head off! Come on!!”

Taisi slapped his neck really hard, even letting out loud and resonating slapping sounds that resounded across the broad path, while yelling ferociously, “Come! Chop here! Your master, Taisi, has clear, visible bones on his neck. You see, here under my skin, a suture between my neck and body, chop here! It should be easy and clean! You should be able to chop my head directly off by simply swinging your sword!”
