A Mortal’s Medicinal Elixirs

Chapter 105 The Expensive Blood Fungus!

At that moment, a group of suit–clad men came with a gray–beard old man in the middle. They were dressed up like successful people, seeming to have high statuses, and were very respectful toward the old

man.

Right after entering the hall, the old man suddenly sniffed the air and let out a curious hum. Then, his eyes lit up.

Someone next to the old man asked, “Mr. Barthelemy, what’s the matter?”

The old man called Mr. Barthelemy seemed surprised. “I think I smell some kind of divine herb!”

After he finished, he began searching around the hall, so the others could only follow him.

Back inside the room, William waited for a while before taking out the blood fungus, which had already lost its red color and turned white. Its medicinal properties had leaked out and combined with the whiskey, leaving only poison inside.

William split the liquor into two and gave Mia and Melisenna one each. “Mom, Mia, drink this.”

Mia had a bitter expression while complaining. ‘I don’t want to drink any liquor.”

“Don’t worry. It’s not liquor. This is a divine herb drink, William assured her. He wasn’t lying either because the blood fungus‘ medicinal properties were inside its blood–colored substance. Once that substance was mixed with alcohol, it became a divine herb drink. However, this technique was rarely known by others. For instance, that well–known doctor in Symphonia didn’t know about this.

Afterward, Mia picked up the cup and took a sip. Her mouth was filled with a strange fragrance and sweetness, with only a slight hint of alcohol. Immediately, she finished her drink and commented in surprise, “Great taste!”

Hearing that, Melisenna didn’t hesitate and drank it as well.

Just after they placed the bowl down, the door was suddenly opened, and in came a gray–beard old man, followed by a bunch of people.

When the old man came in, he began sniffing around and finally stared at the blood fungus that had lost its color.

“A blood fungus!” His face was filled with shock as he looked at the crowd. “May I know who this blood fungus belongs to?”

William stared at the old man. Though that man didn’t have a cultivation base, he seemed energetic, which implied that he was good at maintaining his body condition.

He asked, “Sir, do you recognize the blood fungus?”

That old man replied, “Sir, I’m Gilbert Barthelemy, a medical practitioner. I smelled the fragrance of the blood fungus and came in to take a look. Never would I have expected I would be able to feast my eyes on a blood fungus in this lifetime. A life well spent, I’d say!” etime.
