Chapter 161: The Hidden Land (Part 7)
"Mr. Ye, Miss Zhou, my sister has recently been seriously ill by her father, and her temper is a little irritable, I am here to make amends to the two of you on her behalf."
Zhu Yuntao quickly apologized.
His humble attitude immediately won Zhou Jingyi's approval, and even Ye Chen nodded secretly, just like the elite children of a big family.
Looking down at people at every turn only means that you have no ability, purely relying on family power, and you are useless.
"What disease did your father have and want to go to the Valley of the God of Medicine to ask for medicine?" Ye Chen asked.
At Ye Chen's level, he would not open his mouth easily, and if he opened his mouth, it meant that he might intervene in this matter.
If Zhu Yuntao knew Ye Chen's ability, he would have asked Ye Chen for help in ecstasy.
But Zhu Yuntao didn't know his identity, so he just shook his head with a wry smile and said: "It's not a disease, but a weird toxin, what the head of the Zijin Guan Dao, who is good friends with my family, said that it is very likely to be Miao Jiang's spell or even voodoo, so he suggested that we go to the Medicine God Valley to ask for medicine." ”
"It turned out to be poisoning." Zhou Jingyi nodded.
No wonder that little girl's vigilance is so high, her father was poisoned, and it is not an ordinary toxin, it is more like a warlock's spell or strange poison, this is obviously someone is targeting the Zhu family, and it is only right to be more vigilant.
"I don't know where Mr. Ye and Ms. Zhou came from, and why did they go to the Medicine God Valley?" Zhu Yuntao suddenly asked.
"I'm from Binhai, as for going to the Medicine God Valley......" Ye Chen didn't say anything.
Zhu Yuntao only thought that he had something unspeakable, and did not ask any more questions, but replied: "Binhai? The coastal area of Luzhou Province? I do know a boss in Binhai, surnamed Yan, who is engaged in textiles. ”
"Yan Fatty!" Ye Chen nodded.
"Yes, yes, it's Boss Yan, it seems that Mr. Ye is really from Binhai, it's my rudeness." Zhu Yuntao breathed a sigh of relief.
Although Yan Fatzi's name is big in Binhai, there are few people who know about Binhai, Ye Chen can say it in one bite, it seems that he is indeed a Binhai person.
And the opponent of the Zhu family obviously has little to do with Binhai.
After eliminating the suspicion, the smile on Zhu Yuntao's face became even more.
He is knowledgeable, humorous and funny, and takes care of all aspects, even Ye Chen is willing to interject a few sentences occasionally.
It was his sister, who stood there with her chest crossed, although she didn't say more, but the domineering between her eyebrows and eyes was clear at a glance.
"They are all brothers and sisters, one is gentle and generous, and the other looks down on people, this is the problem of education from an early age." Ye Chen sighed secretly.
Zhu Yuntao is obviously cultivated as the successor of the family, regardless of temperament, conversation, ability and skill, all of them are top-notch.
Ye Chen has seen it when he comes back from rebirth, whether it is Fang Ping, Lu Shu, Li Chaoyang or even Ye An, they are far worse than him, only Shen Qiye in his previous life in his memory can slightly beat him by half a point.
And his sister Zhu Ruohan, although she has a good appearance, wears a white Chanel suit and fine makeup, she is also a beauty.
But it's just an ordinary Miss Bai Fumei, no matter her mind, knowledge, or city, compared to her brother, she is one in the sky and one in the ground.
It is estimated that the Zhu family did not spend too much thought on her, purely as an ordinary child, just find a family marriage to marry in the future.
"Since everyone is going to the Medicine God Valley to ask for medicine, why don't you go all the way?" When he was full of wine and food and was about to leave, Zhu Yuntao suddenly asked.
Zhou Jingyi was obviously a little moved, she had already felt tired of facing Ye Chen's light and windy stinky face and the expressionless wood on Tongshan's face all the way.
It's rare to meet someone who can keep up with her intellectually, and everyone chats happily, and it's a good thing if we can move forward together.
Zhu Ruohan pouted beside him, but didn't say anything more.
Ye Chen was noncommittal, so he nodded casually, Range Rover joined the Zhu family's convoy, and everyone went to Shanyang County together, and when they arrived in Shanyang County, it was already 12 o'clock at night.
The Zhu family had already booked the most luxurious hotel in Shanyang County in advance, and Zhu Yuntao also booked a room for Ye Chen and the four of them intimately, and paid for it, although this little money is nothing to Ye Chen, it can be seen that Zhu Yuntao is very good at being a person.
Sleepless nights.
The next day, the convoy rumbled towards Linshan Town.
When he arrived here, Zhu Yuntao began to be busy looking for a guide to enter the mountain, while Ye Chen sent the Land Rover driver away, he didn't know how long it would take to come out of the mountain this time, and the mountain road was rugged, no matter how good the off-road vehicle was, he couldn't get in.
It seems that there are many people who come to the Valley of the God of Medicine to ask for medicine, and the guide is quickly found.
"Oh, let me tell you, I don't know how many times I've walked this mountain road, every year there are many rich people like you who come to the town and ask the immortals in the mountains for medicine, but most of them can't get anything to impress the immortals, so they can only go back and forth from where."
The guide is an old man, named Lao Li.
He was holding a precious cigarette from the Zhu family in his mouth, chattering.
"There are immortals in the mountains?" Zhu Yuntao said strangely.
"That's ah, those Dao Masters in the Medicine God Valley have vast magical powers, they can drive fire and water, and give birth to human bones, what is this not an immortal?" Lao Li said enviously.
"The young man of the old Wang family next door, when he was young, it is said that he had a bone, and he was brought into the valley by the Taoist chiefs, and we have a village, village, and town within a radius of hundreds of miles around the 100,000 mountains, as long as there are children in the family who are selected in the valley, it is the carp jumping over the dragon gate, and he will immediately become a rich man in the village!"
Ye Chen was not surprised on the side.
As a major sect of medicine refining, how could the Medicine God Valley be short of money? I don't know how many rich people give them money, and if they leak a little bit out, it will be enough to nourish the surrounding mountain people.
"Do you need something that can impress them to invite these Dao Masters?" Zhu Yuntao frowned.
He originally thought that the Medicine God Valley was the same as those old Chinese medicine doctors in the world, just give money, but he didn't expect that there would be such rules.
"That is, the Dao elders are all immortals, and your little money is just a secular thing, how can you impress the many elders of the Medicine God Valley?" Lao Li shook his head and said.
"Hmph, I don't believe it, if one million is not enough, it will be 10 million, and if 10 million is not enough, it will be 100 million! I don't believe that 100 million is in front of them, and they don't want it yet. Zhu Ruohan sneered.
"Hehe, what is 100 million?" Unexpectedly, Lao Li said disdainfully: "Last time, there was a super-rich family on Hongdao, surnamed Zheng, and I thought the same way as you, at that time, I also hired my Lao Li into the mountain, ready to buy a miracle medicine in the valley with one billion yuan, but I was directly kicked out by the old man's parents." ”
"Hongdao is a rich man, surnamed Zheng? Could it be the Hongdao Zheng family? Zhu Yuntao asked suddenly.
"That's right, it's the Zheng family in Hongdao, the old man of their family is said to have lived to be over ninety years old, and he is dying, so his granddaughter came to the Medicine God Valley to ask for medicine, and just like this young lady thought, just take the money and smash it."
"The result? After hearing this, the elders of the valley kicked them out and issued an injunction that they would never be allowed to enter the Valley of the Medicine God again. Lao Li nodded again and again.
This time, Zhu Ruohan was completely speechless, and even Zhu Yuntao's face changed greatly.
Hongdao Zheng family, that is a real rich family, the old man Zheng has a high reputation, spread all over the Chinese circle, compared with the Zheng family, the Zhu family is much inferior, and the assets are only billions.
Ye Chen was slightly stunned, he didn't expect the Zheng family to also come to ask for medicine, his eyes swept to Zhou Jingyi, only to see Zhou Jingyi raise her chin proudly, and her small appearance obviously said: "You finally know the status of my Medicine God Valley!" ”
It's funny to see Ye Chen, not to mention the Zheng family, even the master of a sect came to the Medicine God Valley to ask for medicine, what does it have to do with him? When the time comes, he will directly hit the mountain gate, take the elixir and leave, what can the Medicine God Valley do?
Seeing that his sister, who had always been arrogant, was frightened, Zhu Yuntao hurriedly lowered his posture and asked, "Elder Li, then you see, what gifts should we bring into the mountain so that the Dao Masters of the Medicine God Valley will accept it?" ”
When has Lao Li been honored as "Li Lao" in his life? And it was obviously called by a rich young master, and his old face suddenly smiled into a chrysanthemum.
"Well, you're asking the right person, according to so much experience of my Lao Li, the Dao Masters in the valley don't really value things like money and gold, but if they send jade, precious medicinal materials, antiques or magic weapons and the like, most of them will accept it."
"Jade, medicinal herbs, antiques, magic weapons?" I wish Yuntao a long sigh of relief.
It is difficult to find magic weapons and medicinal materials, but he grabbed a lot of jade antiques, and this time, just in case, he specially brought a lot of precious jade, which should obviously be enough.
Thinking of this, he was extremely glad that he asked the gossip before leaving, otherwise I am afraid that Zhu Yuntao would also be like his sister, dragging a sack of cash into the valley, and then being driven out directly.
After everything was ready, the crowd began to enter the mountain.
There is only one mountain road to the Valley of the God of Medicine, which is very rugged, and there are many poisonous miasma and smoke miasma on the way, if there is no guide to lead the way, you may fall into danger if you are not careful.
Moreover, there are a lot of fierce beasts and poisonous insects in the mountains and forests, and you can often see cobras, krait snakes and other highly poisonous snakes.
"This road, I'm afraid that only immortal cultivators can come and go often, and ordinary people will eventually be in danger after walking for a long time." Ye Chen looked at it secretly.
With this kind of natural barrier protection, coupled with the fact that there are many masters in the valley and dozens of foundation cultivators, it is no wonder that the Medicine God Valley can be independent in the mountains, and it has been indisputable for hundreds of years, and its status is transcendent.
Two days later, after a long trek through the mountains, everyone finally arrived at the gate of the Medicine God Valley.
Lao Li pointed to the valley in the distance and said: "There is the Valley of the God of Medicine, but we can't enter, and if we want to ask for medicine, we can only see what the Taoist leaders mean." ”
Everyone looked around, only to see a cliff like a moat towering in front of them, and there was only a small valley mouth on the cliff, and this valley mouth had long been sealed by a wall made of bluestones.
This tall bluestone city wall encloses the Medicine God Valley in it, forming a paradise that no one disturbs.
"It's beautiful!" Zheng Ruohan sighed.
At this time, I saw several figures suddenly appear on the wall, and these figures jumped down the city wall more than ten meters high, like galloping fast horses, rushing towards everyone.
