I use deceit to create immortality

Chapter 67 [Human Food +500]

Sure enough, it is a thousand-year-old ginseng!
Jiang Ning looked at the baby-like face sleeping inside the earthen jar, and his face suddenly showed ecstasy.

You know, I just drank a bowl of medicinal soup made by Li Jingnian with ginseng medicine, and the [Human Food] progress jumped by a hundred points...

Then if you eat the entire thousand-year-old ginseng, wouldn't it directly make a qualitative leap in the progress of [human eating]?
At a certain moment, Jiang Ning saw the appearance of the ginseng fruit, sleeping like a baby, and suddenly sighed in his heart:
"Why does this ginseng fruit look more like the longevity fruit than me?"

"You and I are both fruits, and we are both fruits. Why should fruits suffer and embarrass fruits..."

"But I'm sorry, in order to continue on the road to immortality, I can only eat you."

At this moment, there was a rush of footsteps nearby.

Jiang Ning's expression changed, and he realized that his movements were probably discovered by the village's mechanism when he was stealing the Thousand-Year Ginseng!
Without thinking, he immediately jumped out of the red wall and ran towards the market town.

With his excellent speed, Jiang Ning quickly got rid of the group of officers and soldiers and returned to the market town.

at this time.

Jiang Ning saw a group of officers and soldiers standing in twos and threes in the market town, holding scrolls in their hands and constantly questioning them.

"Catch all the people who don't match the picture scroll!"

The shouts of officers and soldiers came from the side.

They knocked on the door from house to house, took the scrolls in their hands, and compared the portraits with the villagers in the house.

However, this portrait is not a wanted poster, but more like facial recognition and identity verification.

If he doesn't match the portrait, he will be taken back to the palace for further examination.

If there is a problem with the identity being verified...

What the consequences would be is simply unimaginable.

At this moment, the officer and soldier directly in front of Jiang Ning suddenly looked back.

I saw that corner of the wall was empty, not a single human figure.

After a while.

The officers and soldiers verified the identities of the nearby villagers before leaving.

Jiang Ning hid in the corner of the alley. After all those people left, he walked out of the corner. His face was covered with a solemn haze, and he thought to himself:
"Sure enough, the village version has been updated again!"

"Now the government does not look for people based on wanted orders, but verifies identity based on portraits."

"These portraits are like a database of normal villagers. Only if they are verified in these databases can they be kept here normally."

"Otherwise...if your true identity is discovered and you are brought back to the palace, you may have to face that little mother."

"This is not fun!"

Jiang Ning's eyes moved slightly, and suddenly he touched his face with his right hand, and his face changed.

This face is clearly that of the little beggar.

As long as they are normal villagers, they should all be in the database...

Of course, it is not ruled out that the little beggar will be at risk of being investigated after he is discovered with the red plum fruit.

But at least it's better than walking on the street with an unfamiliar face and being checked out suddenly.

"It seems that we may not be able to go to Mr. Li's place for the time being..." Jiang Ning looked at the increasingly dark sky, frowning and thinking.

His original plan was to go to Li Jingnian's wooden house, take out the thousand-year-old ginseng, and see if he could give it to him and brew it into a nourishing soup.

But now it seems that since these officials are knocking on doors and checking, Mr. Li's place may not be safe.

Although it seems that Li Jinnian has no ill intentions towards Jiang Ning for the time being, his status is special...

However, judging from this morning's performance, Li Jingnian will still be partially restricted by village rules.If an official comes knocking on the door, he will most likely say that he is just a medicine seller and a doctor and knows nothing.

Not necessarily safe...

Thinking of this, Jiang Ning returned to Granny Nan's wooden house, and before it got completely dark, he hurriedly hid in the cave that was full of the smell of meat.

Return to silence.

Jiang Ning felt as if he had returned to the cemetery where he first arrived, staying in the dark, damp soil, acting as a buried corpse.

The surroundings were quiet, not even the sound of footsteps or voices could be heard, and the group of officers and soldiers did not seem to go to Grandma Nan's house to conduct an investigation.

"It's relatively safe here for the time being."

Jiang Ning took a long breath, and then began to run the Yin and Yang Wheel at full speed.

At this time, the progress bar on the panel has reached 970 points.

After leaving the Imperial City, the growth rate slowed down a bit, but it took about a day to break through a thousand points, which was not a big problem.

What's more... Jiang Ning took out the Millennium Ginseng and took a deep breath.

Don't forget, there is such an extremely valuable treasure of heaven and earth. If you swallow it, you can increase your progress a lot.

If a normal person swallowed Millennium Ginseng directly, he would most likely explode and die.

However, Jiang Ning sensed that the relic above the sea of ​​suffering exuded a power of affinity, as if he had a strong desire to eat this thousand-year-old ginseng.

Like it comes from instinct...

Generally speaking, for living things, instinctive reactions will only be triggered when they encounter food that they need.

Therefore, Jiang Ning judged his current progress in [Human Eating] and forcibly absorbed Millennium Ginseng, which should be feasible.

Of course... this will bring a certain wind direction to itself. If necessary, it will be safer to wait until [Human Food] breaks through to [-] points.

But Jiang Ning couldn't wait that long anymore.

The changes in the village, Xiaoxiao who hasn’t been seen for a day, the popular red plum fruits and the plum god in the shrine...

Including the demon wolf seen in the palace today, the updated patrol guards, and the old village guard who transformed into a magic stick and colluded with the Lin family...

The vermilion tower in the dynasty, and the little mother hidden in the depths, the deceitful monk in the wilderness...

These threats have become his motivation to become stronger.

Jiang Ning took out the thousand-year-old ginseng, took a deep breath, and swallowed it.

Gollum!Gollum!
After chewing the ginseng, the sweetness of licorice spreads throughout the mouth, as if eating the residue from the soup.

But the next second, that volcanic hot feeling instantly burned from his belly, turning into the essence of Yang Yuan, flowing through the meridians throughout his body, transforming every inch of Jiang Ning's bones.

The relic in the center of the sea of ​​suffering instantly erupted with a golden glow.

One drop, two drops, three drops... This time, seven drops of the source of life were condensed in succession, and they fell into the golden ocean of the fountain of life, causing ripples like a storm in an instant.

After the source of life was injected with majestic vitality, it expanded outward several times in an instant, reaching a width of ten feet in radius.

It condenses into a golden spring water, and the lake light is filled with sparkling golden patterns, exuding the radiance of the law like a saint.

next second...

A golden font popped up in front of Jiang Ning's eyes——

[You swallowed thousand-year-old ginseng...]
