Fury Immortal Doctor

Chapter 1588 - 1591: The Upright Girl Unmoved by Wealth

Looking at the charming Abi and the stunning school beauty Qin Yurou who was laughing quietly beside her, Shen Qiang's mood inexplicably lightened. In fact, the thing that can captivate people's hearts the most in this world is money. When Shen Qiang came here earlier, it was just to accompany Qin Yurou for a leisurely stroll.What he never expected was that Beijing's flower market was far more suitable for the use of Observing the Micro than the antique market.

This is probably because of the data legacy from the Medical Saint Inheritance.

After all, for objects like magical treasures and antiques, Observation Skill can generally only be used to discern what they are and how long they have existed.

But it's completely different for these flowers and saplings.

Upon seeing each type of flower and plant, Shen Qiang's mind can clearly understand what it actually is, what medicine it can be used for, and whether it has any side effects. So today, the person who truly gained was indeed Shen Qiang.

For instance, the stunning school beauty Qin Yurou is the Young Master of Medicine King Valley and a genius in alchemy and pharmaceuticals. However, aside from initially acquiring a flower useful for alchemy, she had no significant gains.

Because Shen Qiang's eye is incredibly sharp.

Once he activated his Observation Skill, everything useful or useless became instantly clear.

Not only that, unlike before when he could only use it for 0.8 seconds, with the growth of his cultivation, Shen Qiang can now use Observation Skill for over half an hour without feeling fatigued.

If he had come to the flower and plant market when he could only use it for 0.8 seconds, it would have been hard to gain anything because there are too many plants, crowded together. In 0.8 seconds, he wouldn't be able to do anything.

So when Shen Qiang came to the flower market this time, he was already overjoyed to have acquired the treasure-like Hundred Ganoderma Vine and the sacred Soul Summoning Grass.

Surprisingly, the seemingly money-grubbing Abi was willing to give up wealth within her grasp.

It's well known that in the face of money, human nature becomes most apparent.

A million might not seem like much to Shen Qiang.

But what about Abi?

She's Qin Yurou's follower, who in earlier days would have been called a maid or a handmaid; now, she's a personal assistant.

Qin Yurou doesn't mistreat Abi.

However, it's obviously impossible for Qin Yurou's family to give Abi a million in pocket money every year.

Especially since earlier, when Shen Qiang gave Abi the first flower, Qin Yurou mentioned it was worth over thirty thousand, enough for Abi's pocket money for at least half a year. Even calculating expenses at a hundred thousand a year, a million could allow Abi to live a well-off life for at least ten years.

Eat what she wants, drink what she wants.

Yet now, she doesn't want it.

If it was Qin Yurou, the graceful and rich young lady, making such a choice, Shen Qiang wouldn't be surprised. But Abi making such a decision made Shen Qiang regard her in a new light.

After all, it's no small amount.

"Are you sure you don't want it?" Sitting in the car, Shen Qiang smiled and looked at Abi, saying: "Selling it could be worth a lot of money. Then you could buy a lot of good food. Do you still need me to treat you to a meal?"

Abi charmingly rolled her eyes and said, "Oh, since you already know, why bother with so many unnecessary words? We've been walking for three or four hours, and my senior and I are already hungry. Hurry up and take us for something to eat."

Shen Qiang laughed: "Alright, then tell me what you want to eat, and we'll go wherever you want."

With that, Shen Qiang drove Qin Yurou and the spirited young Abi away from the flower and plant market.

Meanwhile, other cultivators at the flower market watched in shock and reluctance as Shen Qiang drove away, only sighed and came to their senses after the car had disappeared from view.

"Alas, a peerless talent, King of Demons, his knowledge of flowers and plants surpasses us. Just now, I asked around; that Soul Summoning Grass had been on sale in this market for nearly twenty days now. In those twenty days, I visited three times."

"At least twice I passed by the store, but I never imagined that such a rare artifact as Soul Summoning Grass would be in that unremarkable little shop." Yu Xinghuo sighed and said, "Maybe it's just fate."

Upon hearing Yu Xinghuo's words.

Another cultivator also frowned and sighed: "Yes, brother Yu is right. I've been around here for years. I've known that shop owner for nearly ten years and even had tea at his shop a few days ago. That Soul Summoning Grass was already there. I glanced at it briefly but it was too inconspicuous, so I didn't notice."

"Time, luck, fate; that Soul Summoning Grass was in the flower market for over twenty days, and yet it was purchased by Shen Qiang, who came here for the first time, for just thirty-five dollars. How ironic. We consider ourselves sharp observers, yet we missed it easily." The gray-haired elder sighed.

"But there's nothing we can do. Sometimes things in this world are like that. The more you want something, the harder it is to get. The more you fear something, the more likely it's to appear. We've spent our lives searching, and though we didn't acquire it, at least we've seen the Soul Summoning Grass. We should consider ourselves fortunate compared to those who've spent their lives without even seeing it."

Upon hearing the old man's words, everyone fell silent, because regardless of whether one is an ordinary person or a cultivator.

The harder something is desired, the harder it is to obtain. The more one fears bad occurrences, the more likely they are to happen, almost as if they're nightmares, always surrounding people.

"Hmph, just a guy with lucky breaks." Zong Zijin, who looked extremely displeased, said, "Shen Qiang is having his lucky streak now, but good fortune always passes, like in mahjong; when the cards are favorable, everything is smooth, but when the cards aren't, everything goes wrong."

Upon hearing this, Yu Xinghuo smirked: "Young man, I see you know Yan Xianghui. Let me give you some advice. So-called good luck comes from accumulation. Only those who have seriously competed with Shen Qiang in the field of elixirs can understand his prowess."

"There are so many of us who rise early and wait here before dawn to try and acquire a few exotic flowers and grasses, but who's actually gotten anything good? Shen Qiang!"

Yu Xinghuo raised an eyebrow and said, "Hundred Ganoderma Vine is like a treasure tree, Soul Summoning Grass is sacred. Besides those, he's acquired about a dozen exotic flowers and grasses. If it were just one or two, luck could explain it, but so many can't merely be luck; it's strength."

These words made everyone present sigh. But thinking carefully, it's true. Many people have good luck, but what use is it if they don't recognize the Soul Summoning Grass?
