Cheng Mobai looked at Mo Fei, “My disciple, you can rest assured, although some people didn’t recognize what you are capable of, some day others who have bright eyes can see it.”
Mo Fei nodded, “Shifu, here is the list of the ingredients I need.”
Cheng Mobai nodded, “I will get them for you as soon as possible.”
Mo Fei looked at Cheng Mobai, “No one else should see this list.” Although he had added some irrelevant ingredients to cover people’s eyes, this should still be kept confidential, just in case.
Cheng Mobai nodded and said, “Hmm, I know.”
…
Wei Pengfei and others gathered together.
“It seems that he has been staying low recently?” Tang Jin said.
“The painkilling potion he made is useless, while the one the association worked out works quite well. I think he is ashamed to see people now.” said Feng Ru with sarcasm.
Wei Pengfei squinted his eyes and said, “But Mo Fei doesn’t seem to be some who will give up so easily.”
Chu Jun said with his eyes narrowed, “I heard that Cheng Mobai started to collect star herbs again, very secretly, like a thief.”
Feng Ru narrowed his eyes and said, “If you can’t stand the heat, get out of the kitchen. Now except Cheng Mobai and Wang Weixing who are in the same boat with Mo Fei, few people are willing to look for star herbs for Mo Fei.”
Wei Pengfei stroked his chin and said, “If we let Mo Fei go on studying like this, maybe, he’d really develop something.”
Feng Ru looked at Wei Pengfei, saying with displeasure, “Wei Pengfei, how could you boost the enemy’s morale and dampen our own spirit?”
Wei Pengfei looked at Feng Ru and said, “I just said in case.”
Feng Ru made a twitch of his mouth, “There won’t be such possibility.”
Wei Pengfei looked at Feng Ru, eyes flashing a trace of light disdain.
“…”
Mo Fei walked on the road, facing people’s eyes, frowning.
Lou Yu looked at him and said, “Anything wrong?”
“Nothing, I just feel a little strange.” Mo Fei twitched his mouth.
“Strange? What’s strange?” Asked Lou Yu.
Mo Fei shrugged his shoulders, “Anyhow, I am a heavenly class pharmacist, and I got a heavenly class husband. Why the say they look at me is like looking at a stray cur and an abandoned husband? Did you cheat on me? So they’d look at me like that?”
Lou Yu said angrily, “What nonsense are you talking about? How is it possible?”
Mo Fei rubbed his nose, “Really?”
“Of course.” Lou Yu said grumpily.
“Then how do you explain it?” Mo Fei wondered.
Lou Yu looked at Mo Fei, sighed and then said, “Last time about your failure, people all heard about it. A lot of people said that you are too eager for quick success and instant benefits. In order to develop the antidote, you have even become insane, and maybe even have gotten possessed.”
Mo Fei rolled his eyes, “Insane? Possessed? Seriously?”
Lou Yu helplessly spread his hands, “Just some rumors. Don’t take it to your heart.”
Mo Fei scratched his head. The negative rumors about him had been going on ever since he entered the herb capital!
Before he came, he had no idea that those old men were not only good at refining potions, but also good at gossiping and calling white black.
“Can’t those dead old men give me a break?” Mo Fei couldn’t help saying.
Lou Yu helplessly said, “It’s not easy.”
Mo Fei gritted his teeth, full of anger, “A bunch of old shameless things, some day I’m gonna let them pay!”
Mo Fei’s soul force extended out, and countless gossiping sounds flooded into his ears.
“I heard that Mo Fei has been possessed for the soul-killing potion.”
“I heard that recently he kept failing again and again, now he can’t even refine earth class potions!”
“I heard that he often dreamed that he has worked out the antidote of the soul-killing potion. And when he wakes up, he couldn’t tell reality from his dream, and he always thought he has developed the antidote!”
“What a pity! Such a heavenly class pharmacist! He has driven himself crazy for quick success and instant benefits!”
“So, a storm may arise from a clear sky. Something unexpected may happen any time. Who knows what will happen tomorrow? He is talented, so what? Still gotten insane finally!”
“…”
Mo Fei gritted his teeth, insane? Who is insane? He becomes insane without himself knowing about it?
Lou Yu looked at Mo Fei’s face and said, “Let’s go back.”
Mo Fei nodded, “All right.”
