Chapter Forty-Eight: Years in the Mountains
After everyone crossed the road monument and gradually walked for a while, the surrounding scenery was unusual, with birds singing and flowers everywhere, and green trees everywhere. Just when everyone relaxed and felt that this Thousand Illusion Array was nothing more than that, Bai Alum led a group of people to an ordinary small sapling, and deliberately said two words: "Keep up." With that, he took the lead and walked straight towards the seemingly ordinary little tree. As soon as the alum came into contact with the small tree, it did not crash into the tree as everyone expected, but disappeared directly.
Bi Tuo has long been used to it, and waved his hand: "What are you still doing in a daze, go quickly." After speaking, he also disappeared into the small tree with the alum.
Walking out from behind the tree, everyone seemed to have stepped into another world. Between the surrounding endless hills, as far as the eye can see, there is loess everywhere, and there is no grass.
"You just have to keep your head down and keep up, you don't have to look at the scenery around you, it's all fake, it's different every time you come. This Thousand Illusion Array was exchanged by the Medicine King Valley with the treasure of the Town Valley and the first generation of Grandmaster Wei Jia two hundred years ago, and Wei Jia's lifelong mastery of Feng Shui, Qi Gate, and the study of organs were all integrated into it, which can be said to be the pinnacle of his life. The scene in the formation is changing day by day, and it seems that there is nothing peculiar about every change, but if you don't know the right path and walk around at will, you won't want to get out of it for the rest of your life. As Bi Tuo walked, he couldn't help but show off.
Bai Alum, who was walking in front, splashed a bucket of ice water: "That's a lot of nonsense." ”
Bi Tuo shouted: "Stinky ice, I'm doing this for your good!" If you don't explain it clearly to these hairy boys, what if they don't keep up and miss one or two? In the end, you don't want to go back and lead the way again? I really don't know the hearts of good people! ”
Alum didn't say anything more, and concentrated on leading the way. He led the crowd around a few laps around a small dirt hill that was not peculiar, and then rushed straight into the next scene.
This time, it was surrounded by cliffs, and a cascading waterfall came into view right in front of you. The alum didn't look at the waterfall and walked towards the mountain on the left. With Bi Tuo's reminder in advance, everyone hurried away, followed the alum only through the foot of the mountain, and continued to move forward.
Half an hour later, they finally arrived at their final destination, the Valley of the Medicine King.
Located deep in the mountains, Yaowang Valley can be said to be a paradise. From the outside, it seems to be no different from ordinary small villages, with more than a dozen small courtyards scattered in the green mountains and green waters, and dozens of acres of fertile fields neatly cultivated and hard-working farmers. The villagers were also very curious about this group of outsiders who suddenly broke in, but when they saw the alum leading the way in front, there was no hostility in their eyes. If it weren't for the fact that everyone had just passed through the incredible Thousand Illusion Array, they couldn't believe that what they saw in front of them was the famous Medicine King Valley in the rivers and lakes.
Continuing further beyond the small village, a large mansion that looked like an ordinary landlord's house came into view. The people in the Yaowang Valley are simple, and the door of this mansion is so hidden. When Bi Tuo arrived here, he was like returning to his own home, and walked up directly to push open the door, and greeted Shen Ze and his party behind him: "This is Old Man Bai's house." Come on in. ”
As Bi Tuo walked into the front yard, a middle-aged man walked out quickly. "The distinguished guest arrived, and he was disappointed." The middle-aged man smiled warmly and bowed his hand.
"This is the valley master of the Medicine King Valley, the old man Bai Linfeng Bai." Perhaps because of the same age, the Medicine King looked much younger than himself, and Bi Tuo introduced the three words of the white old man at the end.
Unexpectedly, the person in front of him was the medicine king with the same name as Bi Tuo, Shen Ze hurriedly bowed and saluted: "This time I came to your place to disturb you, the father of the Xiaosheng generation is here to thank the predecessors of the medicine king, thank you for the mercy of the seniors, and are willing to accept the father." ”
Bai Linfeng waved his hand heartily: "No need to be polite. Old man Bi couldn't marry a daughter-in-law in his life, he personally adjusted the body of Wei Guogong for many years, and he was the same father and son as Wei Guogong. I've wanted to get acquainted with the two of you for a long time, but it's a pity that Wei Guogong is in a high position, and I, an old man in the countryside, can't climb high. Now that I have the opportunity to get acquainted, it can be regarded as fate, and the son of the world must not be polite to the little old man. ”
"The predecessor of the Medicine King has a life-saving grace for his father, how dare the kid hold it up in front of you? The title of the son of the world, I hope that the seniors will not mention it again, and just call the younger generations by name. ”
As the saying goes, when he ascended to the throne and fought against him, Bai Linfeng deliberately said that he was a person who tended to be inflammatory, because he was worried that he would be too kind to the Weiguo Mansion this time, but it would cause the Weiguo Gong's father and son to be jealous. There are many taboos among the wealthy families, and in the face of unrequited kindness, they don't want to be endlessly demanded in the future, and these nobles often choose to eliminate their benefactors in the end. Bai Linfeng has lived to this age, and he has already grown old, how can he not understand these twists and turns.
In front of him, this prince of Wei Guo has a modest posture, clear and sincere eyes, but he is a beautiful person, no wonder Old Man Bi will regard him as a serious junior, and rarely beg him to take in their father and son.
After seeing the hearts of the people for a long time, Bai Linfeng casually snorted and called the big disciple to lead the guests to settle down.
Shen Ze lived in the Medicine King Valley for more than half a month, watching his father turn the corner, his body improved day by day, and he became more and more energetic. The father and son worked together with those ordinary peasants, working at sunrise and resting at sunset, and the days passed very regularly. Every morning and afternoon, Shen Bin had to soak in the spiritual spring for an hour, in addition to drinking medicine on time, eating three meals a day were carefully matched by Bi Tuo. In his spare time, Shen Ze walked around the fields with his father at will, watching the farmers work hard and the children frolicking and playing, and the days were very comfortable.
On the other side, Xiao Fei and Zhou's mother, the master and servant, had a hard time. I had already learned from Bi Tuo's mouth about the vicious experience of this pair of masters and servants, and the master and apprentice of the Medicine King did not have the slightest sympathy for them, took out a variety of highly poisonous medicinal materials, tried and solved them again, and tried again after solving them, in just half a month, the pair of masters and servants tasted more than ten kinds of poisons, and experienced all kinds of poisoning, which was painful and indescribable.
I don't know how many years have passed in the mountains, and in the blink of an eye, another half a month has passed.
Of course, Shen Ze wanted to stay with his father until the day he recovered. But the father and son both knew very well in their hearts that there was still a bunch of messes left by Xiao Fei's outside waiting for Shen Ze to clean up, and the longer it dragged on, the more troublesome it became. Under Shen Bin's repeated urging, Shen Ze finally embarked on the road back to Beijing.
As soon as he walked out of the Medicine King Valley, Shen Ze met his subordinates who had been here for a long time, and reported to him in detail about the big and small things that happened in the capital during this time, including the tortuous experience of the eldest lady of the Lu family.
It was the first time that Shen Ze had heard that his sweetheart had a marriage contract, and he didn't expect that so many things had happened around Zhihua in just two months. I don't know how she's feeling now, even if she took the initiative to bring it up, she must feel uncomfortable. Thinking of this, Shen Ze's heart twitched, and he immediately ordered to set off, eager to grow a pair of wings and fly to the capital immediately.
