Chapter 1664: Meeting the Elder
ns, Mr. Chen could easily refine them.""What"Jiang Zongzhu was stunned!It is important to know that sorcerers, array masters, and pharmacists like them are all very rare in the Heaven-Human Realm!But...When Chen Ping saw this, he could only put away the power of the divine dragon within himself!
In an instant, Chen Ping's dantian within his body entered a sealed state, becoming an ordinary person!
"Go in..."
A man with a full beard spoke.
"Thank you, Third Elder..."
Master Ge Fuhai respectfully followed the bearded man with a bow, then led Chen Ping inside!
As soon as Chen Ping entered the courtyard, he smelled a faint fragrance. Chen Ping sniffed hard, and then his entire brow furrowed!
As a pharmacist, Chen Ping was all too familiar with this kind of thing. The fragrance came from a certain type of tree. When burned, it emitted a subtle, pleasant scent.
However, this fragrance is not used for fresh air, but as a preservative. Some corpses, after being fumigated with this smoke, can achieve the effect of preservation.
Chen Ping couldn't understand, how could a dignified patriarch of the Ge family live in a place where they would use this kind of thing as spice
But before Chen Ping could figure out what was going on, Ge Fuhai knelt down directly.
"Greetings, Elder. The person has arrived..."
Geshe Kelsang Gyatso bowed deeply and said loudly.
Chen Ping then fixed his gaze and saw that in the topmost seat sat an elderly man. The old man's white beard and eyebrows almost covered his entire face!
The old man looked to be very aged, his skin wrinkled all over. He sat in his seat, seeming as though he might die at any moment.
The old man remained motionless, his only animated feature being his piercing eyes. If you didn't look at those eyes, you'd think he was dead!
Chen Ping looked at the elders of the Ge family, entranced for a moment, and did not offer greetings!
“Mr. Chen, hurry up and pay your respects…” Ge Fuhai looked at Chen Ping anxiously and said, “Now that you’re considered part of the Ge family, it’s a grave offense to not show respect to the elders!”
However, Chen Ping did not kneel because he was not a member of the Ge family and had no habit of kneeling to anyone!
"Greetings, Elder!"
Chen Ping simply clasped his fists in greeting.
Suddenly, Ge Fuhai broke out in a cold sweat. He was afraid the elder would be angry!
But to everyone's surprise, the elder didn't get angry. Instead, he calmly said, "Please sit down…"
Gerfo Hai was taken aback, for he had never sat before the Elder. He had always knelt.
Why was Chen Ping brought here today It's surprising that the elders would be so polite and even have them sit down.
Chen Ping was not polite either, but walked to a chair beside him and sat down.
But Ge Fulai didn't dare to, he still knelt on the ground!
"Look at the tea..."
The elder gave an order.
At this moment, a woman in a white dress walked out of the room beside them. Her face was breathtakingly beautiful, like a fairy from heaven.
But his face was deathly pale, devoid of any life, like a walking corpse!
A woman walked toward Chen Ping in small steps, bowing slightly as she placed the tea before him!
Chen Ping stared at the woman's face, his whole being plunged into immense confusion!
Because he couldn't sense any life from this woman.
"Could this woman be a puppet corpse"
Chen Ping thought to himself, his scalp started to tingle!
If that's really the case, then this Ge family estate is probably not a good place at all.
Just as the woman turned, Chen Ping pretended to accidentally touch her hand.
The moment he touched her, his fingers met with icy coldness. There was no warmth whatsoever. Chen Ping could immediately tell—this woman was dead!
At this point, Chen Ping's breathing began to quicken.
He is now completely sealed, a helpless fish on a chopping board with no ability to resist.
Gently raising the teacup, Chen Ping's hands trembled slightly.
He had never been so nervous.slowly grasped the dragon crystal atop Xiao Ru's head."Look, this is a Dragon Crystal. It's not just an Ice Dragon's crystal, but also a Fire Dragon's crystal..."Chen Ping handed the dragon crystal to...
