As An Immortal, I Only Learn Forbidden Skills

"Master Zhang, congratulations!"

Jiang Ming raised the wine bowl and raised it towards the happy old man.

"Thank you, Lord Jiang, I've also invited you for this bowl of wine!"

Old man Zhang grinned and said, he has been impoverished all his life, and today he is considered rich.

"Hey, with these thirty taels of silver, Lao Zhang, you can open a small shop in the city..."

"If you want me to say, build a big house in our town..."

Many spectators chattered, imagining how to spend the thirty taels of silver.

In the warm atmosphere, there were a few elderly herbal pickers with dim eyes, as if they remembered something...

Jiang Ming walked to the corner of the counter, bumped a bowl with Old Jiang, and said in a low voice, "Master Jiang, do you know...the fire cloud grass appears frequently, what do you say?"

There was no joy on Old Jiangtou's face either, and he sighed after hearing the words: "When I was young, I heard from my parents... When the fire cloud grass grows more and more, there will be a king of medicine born in the mountains. Prolong life, get rid of all diseases... I don't know if there are more."

"But one thing is certain, once the King of Medicine appears, the herb pickers in Ping'an Town may be robbed again..." Old Jiangtou's eyes flashed a trace of worry.

"King of Medicine?" Jiang Ming pondered in his heart. Others didn't know how the Fire Cloud Grass was born, but he saw it with his own eyes. It was created by the remnants of the failed transformation of the Fire Mayfly.

The so-called king of medicine... Could it be that the purple root grass inhabited by the successfully transformed fire mayfly mutated?

"I can't go into the mountain anymore..." Jiang Ming secretly said.

Although he extremely doubts that the medicine king has anything to do with Xianyuan, he will not be dazzled by greed.

Even Old Jiangtou knew about these things... Maybe someone well-informed has already entered the mountain and started quietly looking for the so-called medicine king.

He has a lot of time, at worst, wait and see, and wait a hundred years to find the next king of medicine...

...

For the next few days, Jiang Ming stayed in the town, tempering his tendons while teaching Zhou Wenxiu boxing at home.

When this stupid girl's blood is not going well... go to Lao Jiangtou's tavern to sit for a while, and listen to the news of the war in the south and the news related to Fire Cloud Grass.

"Jiangnan Fucheng is a tough one. I heard that the Cangshan army suffered a lot of casualties, and the city walls have not even been touched!"

"Hey, I don't think it's very good. It is rumored that the family in the Jiangnan Mansion colluded with the Cangshan Army, and suddenly there is no movement..."

...

Now that the major forces in Fucheng have branches in Ping'an Town, the news of these low-level villagers is much better than before.

The news of the war came one after another...

However, for five or six days in a row, there was no news of Fire Cloud Grass.

On the seventh day, as soon as Jiang Ming entered the tavern, he saw many drinkers blushing, as if they were celebrating something.

His heart sank.

Sure enough, a herbal picker with flushed cheeks shouted excitedly: "Morning Jiang, today is another Fire Cloud Grass, Xiao Jiang picked it..."

"Hey, we herb pickers are finally getting rich..."

Many herbal pickers happily surrounded a young man in the middle of the tavern.

Many people are gearing up and are ready to go to the mountains to do a lot.

three days later...

"Two, two Fire Cloud Grass, Old Tang and Qian Deaf both picked them..."

In the tavern, even the drinkers who were not herb pickers became excited, and even a cripple like Qian Deaf who dared not go into the mountains on weekdays got a plant, so what are you waiting for...

And some elderly herb pickers, although they were also celebrating, their eyes became darker and darker, as if they had a premonition of what was about to happen.

"Master Jiang, I'm going back to Fucheng..." Jiang Ming sighed and slapped the money for the wine on the table.

Old Jiangtou nodded clearly: "You have to avoid it, right? I understand, I understand!"

Jiang Ming is now considered to be a well-known and experienced herb collector in Ping'an Town. If there is really a powerful force with a good background who comes to find the King of Medicine, he will probably be arrested as a strong man...

Jiang Ming sneered, his nickname Jiang Paopao is now well-known in the town...

After going home and briefly explaining to Zhou Wenxiu, Jiang Ming packed his bags and left without delay.

Although he is from Liehu Village, if the Cangshan Army came to invite him, or the forces outside the Dayun Mansion surpassed first-class warriors to arrest him, this background would be useless...

"Hi, Lord Jiang!"

"Master Jiang, where are you going?"

"I've been fighting for so long, and I've been suffocating in the mountains and fading out. Now that the city has settled down, I just saved some money and went to have fun for a few days..."

In the town, Jiang Ming greeted people all the way, and walked in the direction of Dayunfu City, as if he was going to enjoy life in the city.

...

Dayunfu City.

"Liehu Village, Jiang Ming!"

At the gate of the city, Jiang Ming had a face-to-face with the officers and soldiers of the Shi family guarding the city, and walked in swaggeringly.

There are more officers and soldiers on the street than in the past few days, and conscription notices are posted everywhere, saying that the salary is generous and the future is bright, etc., attracting desperate refugees or passionate young people who want to become princes and generals...

"It's only a big defeat away from catching a strong man..." Jiang Ming muttered in his heart, walking unhurriedly, and walked into a secluded narrow alley unknowingly...

After a while, an ordinary-looking young man came out of the narrow alley and walked towards his small courtyard.

Under a big tung tree, several old men are still playing chess.

"Hey, Ah Sheng...why have you been there these few days?" An old man suddenly caught a glimpse of a figure and immediately shouted.

The other old men also looked over one after another, and the old man Chen who had the son of a warrior even yelled, "The Cangshan Army is enlisting recruits on a large scale, and the pay is too high. Ah Sheng, have you signed up..."

The young man Asheng smiled wryly and shook his head: "Mr. Chen, don't be joking. With my small body, don't I go up to deliver food to the opposite side... These days I am afraid of being caught by a strong man, so I hid."

"I see that the city is becoming more and more unsettled. I don't want to come back and tidy up. I want to go to the countryside for a while. Maybe I can live by carpentry..."

"Hey, you're so young, you don't have much drive..." Old Chen looked regretful.

An old man who was playing chess with him snorted coldly, clapped his legs and said, "I think Ah Sheng is very smart, this Cangshan army might be finished playing at any time..."

"No more!" Old man Chen suddenly said angrily, directly overturned the chessboard, and left with a gloomy expression.

"Tch, I won't brag about your warrior son this time..." An old man looked at Old Chen's back and sneered.

"My lords, then we will meet later!" As if he didn't see anything, Ah Sheng cupped his hands and turned back to his yard.

After a while, the boy A Sheng changed his clothes, carried a bulging bag and a big box containing carpenter's tools, and strode away...

At the gate of the city, when a soldier saw the young man, he immediately blocked the way and shouted, "Stop, what are you doing, where are you going?"

"The young one is called Yu Asheng, and he took up some work in the countryside..." the young man said respectfully.

The soldier stared at the boy for a moment, then said impatiently: "Go away, remember to come back!"

"God, remember to come back..." Jiang Ming walked out of the city, speechless in his heart, he wanted to wait for me to come back and catch me as cannon fodder, right?

Thanks to the undefeated Cangshan Army, otherwise Jiang Ming wouldn't dare to come back...

...

A day later, Ping An Town.

"You can live here!" Zhu Shichang, who had a big belly, stuffed a few taels of silver into his belt with difficulty, and casually pointed to a dilapidated small courtyard.

"Okay, okay, thank you, sir!" Jiang Ming bowed again and again.

After sending Zhu Shichang away, Jiang Ming looked at the small courtyard. He remembered that the previous owner was also a herb picker. After being captured by the imperial army and taken to the north as a doctor in the army, he never came back...

Jiang Ming sighed softly, dropped the toolbox and luggage, and began to clean up the yard...

"From today onwards, I am Yu Asheng, a carpenter..."
