Chapter 357 A Visit to Medicine King Valley, A Gift for the Visitor
After bidding farewell to Wen Qilin, the grandmaster and his companions did not return to the valley but flew directly from the northern battlefield to Medicine King Valley.
Medicine King Valley is located in the Miaoyuan Mountains, which are known as the first immortal mountain in the east of Zhongzhao Kingdom.
This immortal mountain is not the same as that immortal mountain; it is not the immortal mountain in the eyes of cultivators, but a mountain range that has a mysterious feeling to mortals.
Since the establishment of Yaowang Valley, Miaoyuan Mountain Range has been regarded by the world as an excellent place for the cultivation of medicinal herbs.
The mountains are steep and high, difficult to climb, and sparsely populated. It is precisely because of this unique terrain and environment that a large number of aged medicinal herbs have been cultivated here.
Over time, it became widely accepted that all medicinal herbs from Medicine King Valley were considered divine.
Combined with the medical skills and character of the various families in Medicine King Valley, they are even more sought after by the world.
Medicine King Valley is divided into inner valley and outer valley. The inner valley is mainly inhabited by the Hao, Fan, Wu, and Dong families.
Outer Valley refers to the other families that developed around these four families.
At this moment, the eagle was leading several people soaring high in the sky.
Wen Chengbin asked a foolish question: "Grandmaster, when we arrive at Medicine King Valley, what identity will we present ourselves as? The Wen family or the Hao family?"
The grandmaster countered, "What identity do you wish to assume? And what about you?"
Obviously, the last people asked were Wenwen and Wenchengjian.
Wen Chengjian: "It's fine as long as Grandmaster makes the decision."
Wenwen was good at flattery and said, "Grandmaster, being a member of the Hao family of Medicine King Valley, that's a status that lets you walk around the capital with your head held high, right? It's very prestigious. I like this status, hehe."
The grandmaster looked pleased, "This child is teachable. Then let him live in the Hao family! Use him as you see fit, hahaha."
Wenwen then handed some food to her grandmaster, saying, "Grandmaster, have something to eat so you don't go hungry."
Wen Chengbin and Wen Chengjian exchanged glances. They could never figure out their master's preferences, what a waste of such a good brain.
Seeing the two brothers' discomfiture, Ye Jingchuan mocked them with exasperation, "Sigh, you two are really hopeless. No matter how many times I teach you, you still can't get it. You're all grown up for nothing, you're useless and a disgrace."
Wen Chengbin and Wen Chengjian were even more helpless. They thought that their sister and grandmaster had been bullying them for a long time, and each time would be more experience. These two were not easy to deal with. Oh well, whatever. A real man should not argue with an old woman or a woman.
As the flight time passed, the Miaoyuan Mountains came into view.
Following his master's instructions, the eagle landed at the foot of a mountain three miles from the entrance to the mountain range.
The master led the group, familiar with the way, around the foot of the mountain, through the woods, and to the entrance of the mountain range.
There was no one guarding the entrance, but there were traps set up by some capable people from Medicine King Valley.
These were no ordinary people; they easily avoided the traps and walked straight inside.
After passing through a mountain path, a clearing came into view.
At that moment, several apprentice doctors were drying medicinal herbs in the open space. When they looked up and saw their master walking slowly towards them, they shouted happily, "Master, Master, you're back!"
One of the apprentices greeted him, "Grandmaster, I'll go inform the eldest uncle and the others."
Soon, three middle-aged men came out to greet them.
These people are all fellow disciples of our grandmaster.
"Grandmaster, you're back! Xiao Chuan is back too."
The group paid their respects to their master.
"I have met several of my senior martial uncles."
Logically speaking, these people and Ye Jingchuan are of the same generation, but Ye Jingchuan is used to calling them "Grandmaster" instead of "Master". So, to distinguish them, everyone calls them that, which is fine, as it makes sense in terms of age.
The grandmaster pulled Wenwen and her siblings over, saying, "This is your uncle, just call him as Xiaochuan does."
A senior disciple with thick eyebrows asked, "Grandmaster, who are these people?"
"Nephew Hao, they came with me to the border this time."
The thick-browed master said excitedly, "Grandmaster, this is a child from the Hao family! Congratulations, Grandmaster! Congratulations on finally finding a child from the Hao family!"
Ok?
Upon hearing this, Wenwen thought to herself, "There's more to this than meets the eye. Could it be that the Hao family has lost a child before?"
Before she could think any further, her three senior uncles each grabbed one of them, and the three Wen siblings were instantly pulled inside by their three senior uncles.
"Let's go, let's go, follow our Uncle-Master, Xiao Chuan, keep up."
A round-faced senior master turned around and said, "Grandmaster, please go ahead with your work. We'll bring a few junior disciples to find you in a bit. It won't take long, so don't worry."
Another senior apprentice, a man with a big mouth, grabbed Wen Chengbin with one hand and Xiao Chuan with the other, laughing and saying, "Come on, let's go to the senior apprentice's storeroom, I'll pick out a few gifts for you guys."
Wen Chengbin was overjoyed. He thought to himself, "Isn't a greeting gift usually just one item? Why are they giving several items at a time when we come to Medicine King Valley?"
What an extravagant family!
Is it too extravagant for the three siblings to each give several gifts upon meeting?
As Wenwen was being pulled along, she hurriedly turned back and asked her grandmaster, "Grandmaster, isn't this greeting gift a bit inappropriate?"
The question was asked, but the tone also revealed joy and delight.
The grandmaster laughed and said, "Take whatever your uncle gives you. Don't refuse it if it's free. Hahaha, go on."
Since their master said so, they might as well open their pockets and accept whatever was offered.
When the group arrived at their uncles' storeroom, they were truly dumbfounded.
The warehouse is mostly filled with medicinal herbs, including ginseng, lingzhi, he shou wu, and Tian Shan snow lotus, many of which are decades old, and some are even over a hundred years old. These herbs seem to be sold wholesale, just piled up on the warehouse shelves.
If the pharmacies outside knew that the precious medicinal herbs they dreamed of were treated so rudely in Medicine King Valley, they would be furious.
On the other side of the warehouse, there are some finished medicines on the shelves. The finished medicines that can be placed here are probably not common drugs on the market. Perhaps there are even pills that can make one immune to all poisons.
The thick-browed martial uncle laughed and said, "Look, what do you guys want? Xiao Chuan, you pick a few things too. I've been collecting a lot of these things in the back mountain recently, so feel free to take them."
Uncle Big Mouth casually picked up a century-old ginseng and said with a smile, "Xiao Chuan, here you go. Remember to stew a pot of chicken soup for our grandmaster later so he can have some nourishment. Maybe it can even make him young again overnight."
What is this nonsense?
The senior disciples actually dared to joke about their grandmaster.
"Hahaha......"
Ye Jingchuan, however, was used to it, and opened his mouth wide to laugh.
Then, the three senior uncles also laughed.
Like her siblings, Wenwen stopped holding back and burst into laughter along with them.
In this way, a century-old ginseng brought everyone closer together.
Ye Jingchuan: "Uncle-Master, are you sure you want to give me this?"
Thick-browed Uncle: "Are you stupid? There are plenty on the back mountain. Take them."
After a series of actions, Uncle Big Mouth took a few pieces and stuffed them into his arms. "Here you go, but remember to stew some to try."
Without waiting for a reply, Wen Chengbin blurted out, "Uncle-Master, using this to make soup might turn a miraculous recovery into a sudden resurrection, which would be a miscalculation."
The atmosphere was silent for a moment, then burst into laughter.
The group patted each other on the shoulder and burst into laughter.
At that moment, Wenwen heard Aying say something.
