Chapter 220: A Trip to the Valley of the Medicine King
"Miss, then you must take care of yourself."
Xiaocui didn't expect that her young lady would go out without her, and she had been crying for three days in a row.
"It's okay if you don't go, help me watch the house, and don't let those people take advantage of the opportunity to find trouble." Yuan Li looked at the east courtyard, although Yuan Wan was no longer in the Yuan Mansion now, no one could say when she would become a demon.
Xiao Cui nodded, "Miss, don't worry, with me, those demons and monsters don't want to take half a point from Xiyuan." ”
Not only Leng Yue, but even Leng Er was arranged by Yi Xiaohan this time, if there was anything, it would not be worrying to have the two of them here.
"Master, you take this."
Leng Yue stepped forward and took out a hairpin from her arms.
"What is this?"
It was the first time Yuan Li received a hairpin from a woman, and she was obviously stunned.
Leng Yue looked a little embarrassed, "This time we can't follow the past to protect the master, the subordinates deliberately went to the dark group to find someone to make this hairpin, if there is any accident, the master, you only need to twist the beads on the top of this hairpin, and three poisonous needles will shoot out of it, which is enough to save the master's life in a critical situation." ”
Looking at Yuan Li's reluctant appearance here, and then looking at his two subordinates like a stupid goose, Yi Xiaohan coughed lightly.
"Lord Wang...... Can't your subordinates accompany you? ”
Leng San still sneaked to Yi Xiaohan's side in the end, and whispered, "Otherwise, Leng Er and I will quietly follow behind, in case something is wrong, we can ...... in time."
Hua Jian was a little helpless beside him, "This big black brother, our Medicine King Valley is safe, and there will be nothing wrong." It's just that the rules in the valley don't allow too many outsiders to go back, so you can rest assured, the prince and the county lord, we will take good care of it. ”
Leng San snorted coldly, "Do you say it's safe?" Also, who is your big black brother! ”
Yuan Li snorted, "Okay, you guys will guard the house for us, we're going to go." ”
After that, he pulled Yi Xiaohan and got into the carriage, "Let's go, let's go." ”
How it feels like raising a bunch of children.
*
When the carriage left the capital, Hua Jian told Yi Xiaohan and Yuan Li about their Medicine King Valley.
The reason why the Medicine King Valley has been closed is mainly because more than 20 years ago, the Medicine King Valley had encountered a very cruel infighting.
At that time, the initiator, that is, the person who betrayed the Medicine King Valley, was to unite with outsiders and wanted to do something to the old Medicine King, so as to get the treasure of the Medicine King Valley. In that infighting, a lot of people died, just in case, since then, the Valley of the Medicine King has been completely closed, except for a specific time and people, they will go out of the valley to sell some medicinal materials, and the people in the valley will basically not go out.
"And what are you out of the valley this time?"
Yuanli raised his eyes and looked at the flowers.
In the past two days, Huajian has lived in Yuanfu, and he feels that his face has improved a lot, and it seems that he has suffered a lot since he left the Medicine King Valley.
"Ugh." Hanama sighed, "It's not a secret, in fact, the Medicine King Valley is in an unspeakable predicament, as a big disciple, I came out this time to sell some medicinal herbs to save the emergency." ”
"Unspeakable?" This sounded like it piqued Yuanli's interest.
Before she agreed to marry, Hanama did mention to her that she might need her help, but it was unspeakable......
Huajian glanced at Yi Xiaohan, who was taking a nap with his eyes closed, thought for a while and said, "This matter actually has something to do with the imperial court......
Under Yi Xiaohan's gaze, Hanama raised his hand to wipe the sweat from his forehead.
"That is, our Medicine King Valley has actually always cooperated with the imperial court, that is, to provide medicinal materials for the army."
"That's a good thing." Yuan Li was a little puzzled, if they could cooperate with the imperial court, it could be said that they would be an iron rice bowl, no wonder they could keep their valleys closed, and they would not have to worry about food and clothing.
"It's not bad, it's just," Hanama bit her lower lip, "Something went wrong in the Medicine King Valley this year, and I promised to give the amount to the imperial court, but for some reason, suddenly there was a problem with those herbs." ”
"It stands to reason that before we sent them out of the valley, there was a special person to guard those herbs, but I didn't expect that seeing that the day of handing in the herbs was approaching, that batch of herbs was actually damp, and there was no way to hand them over. My master, that is, the old medicine king, said that the contract signed with the imperial court at the beginning wrote that if the medicinal materials could not be handed over on time, they would have to pay ten times the amount of silver as compensation. ”
Hearing this, Yuan Li knew that it was no wonder that the best poisonous tail grass was going to be sold in this flower, and it turned out to be a silver collection for the old medicine king.
"Then can you just scrape together enough money?" Yuan Li shook his head, "Since it is such an important medicinal material, how can it be damp at such a critical moment, if this can't be accompanied by silver, then the consequences ......"
Yi Xiaohan continued: "It should be the imperial court that has taken over the Medicine King Valley." ”
If you can't lose the money, you can use the Medicine King Valley to offset the account, Yi Xiaohan knows about this matter, after all, the amount of medicinal materials ordered by the imperial court in the Medicine King Valley every year is large, and the price given is very high, which is why the old medicine king was willing to sign this agreement with the imperial court in the first place.
Hanama nodded, "The prince is right," he looked out of the carriage, "By that time, the people in the Medicine King Valley will no longer have a home." ”
"We can't figure it out, why is it damp at such a critical moment, we people in the Medicine King Valley only like to study medicinal herbs all day long, and we don't have much contact with other things, so this time I also want to ask the county lord and the prince to go over and have a look, on the other hand, the county lord You are a well-known business genius, I hope the county lord you can also help and see if this dead end can be solved."
……
"Senior brother, are you back?"
After a long day and night, he was displaced, and finally, when Yuan Li felt that his bones were about to fall apart, the Medicine King Valley arrived.
"It's back. How is it, Master, is his old man okay? ”
The Valley of the Medicine King is a small island isolated from the world, and as soon as the three of them got off the boat, they saw a person dressed as a medicine boy greeting Hanama.
"Master is okay, it's just talking to you all day long, you can go over and take a look. Huh? Who are these two people? ”
At this moment, the medicine boy saw the two people following behind Hanama, and opened his mouth wide in surprise.
This, this, this, where did the senior brother get it back, two people like immortals?
Hua Jian said with a smile: "These two have helped me a lot outside, they are our distinguished guests of the Medicine King Valley, you can also tell the other senior brothers to be respectful to the guests." ”
Huajian's status in the Medicine King Valley has always been very high, and the medicine boy nodded hurriedly when he heard his instructions, and greeted Yuan Li and the others very excitedly, "Welcome to the Medicine King Valley, two guests, I am Shouwu, and I am usually responsible for the safety of the Medicine King Valley." ”
"Shouwu, this name is really suitable for you."
For this Medicine King Valley, Yuan Li is quite interested.
As soon as you go to the island, you will feel the fragrance of medicine, and you will feel healthy when you stand here.
was praised by Yuan Li, Na Shouwu scratched his head a little embarrassed, and Hua Jian beckoned to the two, "It's about to officially enter the valley, the two of you must follow closely." ”
Hearing Hua Jian say this, Yi Xiaohan subconsciously hugged Yuan Li's shoulders and whispered in her ear: "I heard that this Medicine King Valley has made a special layer of poison barrier in order to prevent outsiders from entering, you can tighten me up later, don't let go." ”
As soon as the words fell, Yuan Li held Yi Xiaohan's hand, and his backhand was interlocked.
