"Vincennes??" Lu Tianyu was stunned, this name is so unfamiliar, it shouldn't be a scenic spot. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

Tu Lao saw the doubts in Lu Tianyu's heart, and explained: "Vinson Island is located on the high sea, about a hundred nautical miles away from our West Sea Islands, and about two thousand nautical miles away from our mainland. ”

"Old Tu, why did you go to such a desert island? Can you tell me why? Lu Tianyu asked cautiously, his intuition told him that there must be something hidden in this.

"Tianyu, I believe you, and it doesn't hurt to tell you the truth. Two years ago, I occasionally learned from an ancient book that among the islands in the West Sea, there was a small island called Nanjun, and there was a strange plant on it called Huangshi Root. ”

"Yellowstone?" Lu Tianyu exclaimed.

"What's wrong? Tianyu, do you know this Huangshi root? Tu Lin looked at Lu Tianyu first and asked.

"Yes, I know. Yellowstone root, mostly grown in inaccessible places, like cold, like dampness, detoxification, fire, heat, clear lungs, phlegm, the effect is wonderful. Lu Tianyu recited.

This passage is recorded in the "Hundred Directions of Divine Grass" given to him by the old man Su Yongchong. "Hundred Recipes of Divine Herbs" records eighteen precious Chinese herbal medicines, and Huangshi root is one of them, and it ranks third, which shows its preciousness.

"Well, Tianyu, you're right. Huangshi root is a miracle medicine for lung disease, and in ancient times, it was used exclusively by the royal family, and ordinary people could not even see a shadow. However, after the Ming Dynasty, this Huangshi root disappeared somehow, and there was only a record of efficacy in the major medical classics, and there was no introduction to the place of origin. ”

"My Tu family ancestor has a prescription called Huangshi Bao Lung Soup. According to the older generation, this recipe has a miraculous effect on the treatment of chronic bronchitis and tuberculosis, and in the era of the Northern and Southern Dynasties, there was an emperor who took this prescription for half a year, and the result was that tuberculosis was cured. ”

"Is it so amazing?" Lu Tianyu was taken aback. You must know that in ancient times, the mortality rate of tuberculosis was extremely high, and it was not much different from AIDS now.

"It shouldn't be true." Tu Lin nodded first and continued: "This Huangshi Lung-Protecting Soup requires seventeen flavors of Chinese herbs, the most important of which is Huangshi root. In order to reproduce this place, I have been searching for the whereabouts of Huangshigen since 30 years ago, but I have been unsuccessful, until I came across the ancient book by chance the year before last. ”

"Tu Lao, the small island of Nanjun recorded in the ancient books should be the current Vincennes Island, right?" Lu Tianyu asked.

"Exactly." The old man said in a deep voice.

"Tianyu, I've spent decades searching for the trace of Huangshi Root, and now I finally have a clue, how can I give up again? In the past two years, I have done a lot of preparatory work to get to Vincennes, including buying a fishing boat, renovating it, and now everything is ready, just waiting for the right companions to go. ”

"Tianyu, you are in good health, strong in kung fu, have studied medicine, have excellent ability, and have a group of high-quality subordinates, you are really the best person to go to Vincent Island with me, how about you accompany me, an old man, on a trip?"

Looking at Tu Lao's gray hair, Lu Tianyu couldn't help but feel a wave of respect in his heart.

The old man is over 60 years old this year, and he has reached the age where he can live for the rest of his life, but in order to find the root of Huangshi, in order to reproduce the ancient prescriptions, he resolutely decided to go to an island thousands of miles away despite his old age and body.

"Tu Lao, I'll just go, you don't have to go." Lu Tianyu blurted out.

"Tianyu, you may not know, finding the Huangshi root is my life's hope, if I can't let me see the place where the Huangshi root grows, I will regret it for the rest of my life." The old man said slowly.

Lu Tianyu was silent for a while, and then he spoke: "Old Tu, this is going to Vincennes Island, across the entire West Sea, the journey is thousands of nautical miles, there are not only stormy waves along the way, but there may also be all kinds of unspeakable dangers, I am worried that your old body will not be able to bear it......"

"Tianyu, I understand your concern. However, for this trip to Vincennes, I have been preparing for two whole years, including long-term physical exercise, and my body is strong now, although I can't compare with you, but there is no problem running a marathon, rest assured. ”

"Tu Lao, the trip to Vinson Island, I'll just go......" Lu Tianyu was still not worried about the old man's body.

"Tianyu, don't persuade me, Vincen Island, I must go." Tu Lao's face sank and said, obviously the old man's intentions were very resolute.

The atmosphere in the room was a little stiff, and at this moment, Su Tong, who had not spoken, spoke, "Old Tu, I have a small suggestion, I don't know if I should say it?" ”

"What advice? Go ahead. However, if you want to convince me not to go to Vincennes, then don't say it. Tu Lao looked at the apprentice he had just received, his expression was very serious.

"Tu Lao, I just went online on Baidu and found that there is a port in the Philippines, called Ladora Port, which is only more than 200 nautical miles away from Vinson Island, and we can take a plane to get there first, and then go to sea from there."

"Oh, is that possible?" Tu Lao pondered.

Lu Tianyu next to him looked excited, raised his hand and patted his head, and said, "Why didn't I think of this?" Tu Lao, this should be feasible, I'll do it, you can rest assured. ”

"Do you need me to do anything?" Tu Lao asked, a smile involuntarily appeared on his face, the original journey of thousands of nautical miles has now been shortened by nine-tenths, whoever it is, will be happy.

"Tu Lao, you only need to do one thing, and that is to apply for a passport."

"Oh, I have the passport."

"Old Tu, besides you and me, who else is going with you?" Lu Tianyu asked.

"I'll take two apprentices with me, and you can arrange the rest."

“ok。 Tu Lao, you just mentioned that you bought a fishing boat and renovated it, I don't know where this fishing boat is docked now? ”

"If you don't mention it, I'll forget about it. The fishing boat, named Haifeng, was parked at Siya Harbor on the South China Sea Island, and was bought from local fishermen. ”

"Elder Tu, can you give me the contact information of the ship boss? I sent for the ship to sail to the West Sea. ”

"Tianyu, can't we rent another fishing boat in the Philippines?" Su Tong on the side was very curious.

"For the sake of secrecy, I decided that it would be safer to use Tu Lao's ship, I can't trust villains from some countries." Lu Tianyu said in a deep voice. (To be continued.) )
