Chapter 42: A Secret Stronghold?
Subsequently, Tang Zhengfeng summoned a group of elders in the fort to discuss secretly, and then found Li Xiang.
"Little brother, why don't you go to Rongdu City with the old man......"
"Rongdu City?"
"That's right, go find the people from Wanhua Valley......"
After Tang Zhengfeng's explanation, Li Xiang suddenly realized.
Wanhua Valley has a secret stronghold in Rongdu City...... Of course, the word secret is only relative.
In the eyes of ordinary people, it is nothing more than a big pharmacy, but many people in the rivers and lakes know that it is one of the industries of Wanhua Valley.
The shops are open to the public with some conventional medicinal herbs.
However, the inner courtyard has a unique cave, selling some rare medicinal materials for people in the rivers and lakes.
Many of them are unique to the Valley of Ten Thousand Flowers, or carefully cultivated xenomorphs.
There are several similar strongholds, each of which is located in the prosperous places north and south of the river.
This is also because Wanhua Valley has a unique geographical environment and heritage, majoring in medicine, and at the same time has a more in-depth study of poison.
In addition to selling medicinal herbs, it also treats people's diseases.
Of course, they are not treating ordinary diseases...... It is only some people in the rivers and lakes who are seriously injured, poisoned, dying, or damaged in the meridians, etc., that they will come to seek medical treatment.
The strongholds in various places are mainly managed by outer disciples, and they are also responsible for collecting information on all aspects.
As for the inner disciples, there are generally only a few strongholds in each area, and they are mainly responsible for practicing medicine and maintaining contact with the sect.
When he went to Rongdu, Tang Zhengfeng wanted the disciples of Wanhua Valley to pass on the message and discuss the strategy of dealing with the Demon Sect.
After entering the city, Tang Zhengfeng was familiar with the road and took Li Xiang to the Wanhua Valley stronghold in the north of the city.
"So big?"
Li Xiang stood outside, his face a little surprised.
At first, Tang Zhengfeng said that the secret stronghold, and he thought that it might be a small courtyard.
Unexpectedly, it was a large mansion covering an area of at least twenty or thirty acres.
As a result, Tang Zhengfeng smiled: "It's not too big, is it......"
Li Xiang was speechless.
After all, this is not a suburb, but a capital city.
But after thinking about it again, in terms of the strength of Wanhua Valley, what is a mere mansion?
"What herbs do you want to buy?"
As soon as I entered, a pharmacy guy came up to me and asked with a smile on his face.
Tang Zhengfeng said: "Let's go to the inner courtyard." ”
The guy subconsciously glanced at the outfits of the two, and then made a gesture of invitation: "Please come with the little one." ”
After passing through the shop, there was an outer disciple sitting there reading at the entrance of the inner courtyard.
Hearing the movement, he couldn't help but raise his head, and then hurriedly got up and saluted: "I don't know that the Lord of Tangbao is coming, and he will miss the ......."
Tang Zhengfeng smiled and waved his hand: "Hehe, there's no need to be polite." By the way, is your Senior Brother Wu here? ”
"Senior Brother Wu has returned to the sect...... However, Senior Sister Yunqing and Senior Brother Fu are here. ”
Hearing this, Tang Zhengfeng was a little surprised: "Yunqing's girl is actually here too?" When did it come? ”
"Well, it's been five or six days......"
"Quick, take us inside."
"Yes!"
As soon as he took a step, Tang Zhengfeng took the initiative to introduce Li Xiang: "Yun Qingnai is the youngest disciple of the Lord of Wanhua Valley, and he is also one of the most outstanding disciples of the younger generation. Fu Dong is her third senior brother and her husband at the same time......"
It sounds like Tang Zhengfeng is quite familiar with Wanhua Valley, and he must have been in contact with each other often.
After entering the inner courtyard, Li Xiang couldn't help but open his eyes.
It is worthy of the Valley of Ten Thousand Flowers, and this inner courtyard has also been turned into a pocket sea of flowers by them.
And these flowers are not ordinary flower species, almost all of them are medicinal flowers.
Colorful, so that the whole yard exudes a unique medicinal fragrance, the smell is refreshing.
There are two attics in the courtyard, flowing eaves flying pavilions, carved beams and painted buildings, winding paths leading to secluded ...... It is both magnificent and graceful.
"Huh? Donburg Lord? ”
The woman who was sitting in the corridor between the two attics couldn't help but get up in surprise when she saw Tang Zhengfeng's figure.
"Hehe, Yunqing girl, why did you come here?"
"It's a long story...... Lord Tangbao, who is this son? ”
Yun Qing's eyes subconsciously glanced at Li Xiang.
"Oh, let me introduce you, his name is Li Xiang, and he can be regarded as a peer with you......"
"Peers?"
"Hehe, his own job is a Langzhong, and he is also cultivating the Dao, and he is also of the same origin as your Wanhua Valley."
Yun Qing suddenly said: "No wonder I don't like the disciple of Tang Jiabao...... Li Gongzi, please come and sit in the house. ”
Li Xiang smiled and arched his hand: "Thank you, Miss Yunqing." ”
Originally, he wanted to call Mrs. Yunqing, after all, the other party had already married. However, looking young and in his early twenties, it doesn't feel very appropriate to be called a lady.
"Senior, how come you have time to visit in person?"
Hearing the movement, Fu Dong walked out of the house and bowed to Tang Zhengfeng.
Tang Zhengfeng joked: "That's because you and your husband are unwilling to succumb to Tangjiabao, and the old man can only come to visit with a cheeky face." ”
Fu Dong was embarrassed: "The seniors are ...... to speak"
Speaking of this, his eyes couldn't help but glance at Li Xiang: "I seem to have heard that this friend is also a practitioner of medicine just now, I don't know which senior's disciple?" ”
"Senior Brother Fu, in fact, to a certain extent, it can be regarded as a casual cultivation in the mountains and wilderness...... The reason for this has been discussed with Donburgh......"
Tang Zhengfeng said with a haha: "Yes, yes, speaking of which, he has some relationship with Wuchen Zhenren......
At the mention of dustless real people, Fu Dong couldn't help but glance at his wife, and then arched his hand and said: "I see, hurry, please in the house!" ”
At this time, Li Xiang felt more and more that it was not simple to be dustless.
He just casually ripped off the other party's flag, and let Tang Zhengfeng and Yunqing and his wife look at each other differently.
It seems that it is necessary to visit again when I go back this time.
Whether it is asking for advice or taking advantage of the situation, in short, it is a matter of benefit and no harm.
After entering the house, Yun Qing made four cups of tea with his own hands before sitting down.
Tang Zhengfeng couldn't wait to pick up the tea bowl and smell it, and then looked intoxicated: "I tasted the tea made by Yunqing girl last time, and I thought about it for a long time, and finally had the opportunity to taste it again." ”
Yun Qing said modestly: "Tang Castle Lord smiled......"
"Hehe, the old man is not a compliment, your tea-making skills are indeed a must."
After speaking, Tang Zhengfeng took a sip of tea, closed his eyes and savored it before asking, "By the way, why are you little couple here?" ”
"We are on Master's orders to go down the mountain to do something important."
"Oh!"
Tang Zhengfeng nodded subconsciously, and then said with a solemn face: "It just so happens that the two of you are here, and the old man has an important matter this time." ”
"Senior, please speak!"
"In the past, the Demon Sect has been active in the northwest and the Central Plains, and the old man is too lazy to pay attention to it.
But now, their claws have reached Shudi, and they actually attacked my Tangjiabao, and even almost kidnapped my granddaughter......"
"Is there such a thing?"
Yun Qing and the two exclaimed in unison.
"Yes, fortunately, Li Shaoxia accidentally bumped into this incident and rescued him......"
Tang Zhengfeng talked about the cause and effect.
Subsequently, Li Xiang also began to talk about his experience.
"I was in Tangjiabao that day by chance, tamed the spiritual fire, I didn't think about it, I didn't think about it......"
"Wait, you say...... Tame the Spiritual Fire? ”
Yun Qing said with a shocked face.
Li Xiang nodded: "Well, I'll talk about this later." As a result, the news was passed on by the inner body of Tangjiabao, and the Demon Sect sent people to the door to try to plunder......
After the miss, a second batch was sent.
One of the second group was a weasel spirit, and the other was an old man with whom I had a skirmish......"
