It was mid-May.
There are spring and summer scenes in the Yin and Yang Valley, and it is exactly the summer and spring scenes in this Medicine Valley.
Xia Yang lazily climbed up the hillside, thinking that it took a lot of energy, so the morning light shining in the valley was soft and soft.
In the valley, there are green grass and brilliant mountain flowers. Suddenly there is a gentle breeze, and the fragrance of grass, flowers and medicinal herbs are intertwined in the wind. It is not overpowering, but just right and refreshing.
The light fragrance goes deep into the medicinal valley.
There is a thatched cottage deep in the Medicine Valley with an octagonal roof and a wood-carved corridor around it.
The interior is simply furnished, unlike most houses where all kinds of herbs are piled up just for entertaining guests.
There are guests in the thatched cottage today.
Jiang Yichen is a guest.
Two days ago, the escorting Niu family father and daughter were divided into three groups. Along with the three caravans from Qilin, Luliu and Shuixiu Villas who came to the Medicine Valley to discuss business, they arrived at the Medicine Valley on the same day and at different times.
Medicine Valley is famous all over the world, and countless forces want to establish relations and do business with it.
However, when three unknown villas appeared in the Medicine Valley in one day, the so-called business talks were naturally just a cover.
The three villas are located in the area from Jiangxi to Lingnan. They have been secretly supported by the Daoyi Alliance for a long time. They were exposed this time just to rescue the Niu family's father and daughter and Feipiao and his party who were ambushed on Ning Terrace.
However, their action was too late after all. When they arrived at De Ning Terrace, they could only clean up the mess.
After Jiang Yichen and fourteen others and five corpses were sent to Medicine Valley, the people in the villa had left.
Also leaving on the same day with them was Mo Shang.
In the battle at Ninglu Ridge, apart from Xiaohua, Weaver Girl, and Cowherd, only the leader of the Gale Wind Altar from Xiaoyue League was the least injured, and his physical recovery condition was second only to Jiang Yichen.
Before leaving, Mo Shang confessed that he escorted the Niu family and his daughter in exchange for a promise from Tingyuge.
As for what the promise was, no details were given.
Since this is something that does not need to be announced verbally, I came here to say goodbye to Jiang Yichen, which is somewhat of a show of goodwill.
Jiang Yichen sent him a gift, his heart was like a mirror.
He understood that Mo Shang had done his best all the way south and had no hidden connections with other forces.
But he will never forget the strange behavior of Feng Chen when he died on Baihua Island.
Between him and Tingyu Pavilion, they make use of each other and treat each other sincerely.
If there is not enough interest entanglement with Xiaoyue Alliance, will they still be loyal and unwavering?
Previously, whether in the Yin Yang Valley or on the way south, Jiang Yichen either could not obtain enough information or did not have enough time to sort out the connections between the many events that occurred on the day of the Hundred Flowers Conference and thereafter.
Now, although he has not yet met the old man in person, after intensifying the exchange of letters with him, he has gradually cleared up the blocked connections of some doubtful matters. He believes that the truth obscured by the clouds and mist will be revealed in the near future.
Of course, before that, Jiang Yichen still had one thing to do.
——People who step into the thatched cottage for a while.
Jiang Yichen is a guest.
The one who comes is the Lord.
The visitor is not only the owner of this thatched cottage, but also the owner of this medicine valley.
The medicine valley has been passed down for thousands of years. Whenever a new owner of the medicine valley takes over, most of them will be over fifty years old. Therefore, it is a common convention among the world to address each new owner of the medicine valley with the word "Yao Lao".
Jiang Yichen and Yao Lao were not meeting for the first time, but it seemed like they were meeting for the first time.
Yao Lao had met Jiang Yichen several times, mostly when he was a child or when he was seriously injured and unconscious.
It can be said that Jiang Yichen's urination was a disease treated by Yao Lao, and Yao Lao watched him grow up.
But Jiang Yichen has never opened his eyes to see what Yao Lao looks like.
So, when the old man, who was short in stature and even slightly stooped, with a round face, fair hair and a big smile, approached the thatched cottage, Jiang Yichen bowed in a junior manner with great restraint, while raising his eyes to be as subtle as possible. He looked at the other party with his movements.
However, what he saw in his eyes was still quite blurry, so that the old man could catch a glimpse of Jiang Yichen squinting his eyes unnaturally without looking carefully. Then he got so angry that he raised his hand and sliced off the young man's brain.
"You brat!"
Although the old man was cursing, the smile on his face became more and more brilliant, like autumn chrysanthemums in full bloom.
People who have been speechless since childhood are always timid and at a loss in front of their elders. Therefore, even though he knew that he had a lot of interactions with Yao Lao, Jiang Yichen was still particularly embarrassed and uneasy when he first met him, and he was stunned by Yao Lao. This cut.
It's not that he is pretending, but that he treats Yao Lao as his elder from the bottom of his heart, showing his natural emotions. After all, the relationship between the old man and the old man is only one side. If the other party never takes his illness and injury at ease, It could have been done perfunctorily, let alone sacrificing two capable officers to find his whereabouts.
How can the old and sophisticated Yao Lao, who has read countless people, not see through it?
I felt very relieved in my heart, and whispered happily in my mouth: "It's not in vain to worry about you, a brat like you."
Although the words were soft, they all fell in Jiang Yichen's ears, and his respect and closeness to Yao Lao increased even more.
Before Jiang Yichen could open his mouth, Yao Lao had led him to sit down and said at the same time: "Everyone else is in almost good condition. That man named Chu plans to leave tomorrow. You abducted him and followed him through life and death. Mo I’m going to let others down.”
Ever since Jiang Yichen and others arrived at the Medicine Valley two days ago, the entire Medicine Valley has been busy.
Yao Lao is even more busy, keeping his feet on the ground.
Jiang Yichen, whose injuries were minor and whose physical condition had recovered well in the past few days, was arranged to rest in a secluded place.
Until today, Yao Lao had stolen half a day to have a chat with him.
After hearing about everyone's situation, Jiang Yichen felt a little relieved at first.
Although Jiang Yichen could understand Yao Lao's meaning in the second half of the sentence, he still felt that something was not quite right when he heard it word for word.
But he responded respectfully: "Chen'er understands."
"Hey, be more relaxed, be more natural, be more relaxed. If you want to do big things, I have to put on airs and put on airs. But I can't stand this, old man."
Yao Lao waved his hand, ignoring the people on the horizon and getting close to the people in front of him.
Yao is more than seventy years old, but he still calls the old man who is younger than him "old man".
Jiang Yichen looked like this, but in his heart he couldn't help but feel funny.
Secretly murmuring: Is it true that everyone in the world, regardless of gender, old or young, only calls me "old man"?
Yao Lao muttered to himself, apparently unaware of the smile at the corner of Jiang Yichen's lips.
After a while, Yao Lao smoothed his long white beard that reached his chest and said: "As for your physical condition, it couldn't be better. Those skin injuries will be cured in a while if you don't apply additional medicine." Dissipated.”
Jiang Yichen was slightly startled when he heard this, and then recalled that Yao Lao had been feeling for his pulse just now when he held his hand.
Yao Lao continued: "It seems that the rumored Wuxiang Sect's "Wuxian Sitting and Forgetting Mind Technique" is indeed related to "Xiaoyao Jue". Your kid suffered some hardships when he was involved in it, but now he has inherited a lot of good luck. Give back.”
Yaogu has never been separated from the world, so it is understandable that he knows some of the secrets of the world, and Jiang Yichen doesn't feel any different. But since Yao Lao lived in the thatched cottage, every sentence he said was closely related to him, but he didn't know how to answer, so he just It was good to be able to respond, but he still didn't know how to deal with it.
Although he is old, Yao Lao has not yet reached the point where his old eyes are dim. He obviously noticed Jiang Yichen's discomfort. Looking at the young man's thin face and his soulless eyes, he became angry and narrowed again. A scalp passed by.
Jiang Yichen in the thatched cottage didn't look like a cold-blooded killer at all. He was just a good grandson who was at a loss when he was dragged into talking to an old man. He took another blow with a confused look on his face.
"What's the rush?"
"I'll let you speak when it's your turn!"
"You didn't apply the medicine when I asked you to obediently do it. Why are you missing two pieces of flesh on your face now?!"
"And your eyes are quite a problem."
